Pursuing Happiness LyricsArtist: Bobby BareAlbum: The Game Of Triangles But my soul's on fire and won't let me rest I'm doing things I really shouldn't do I guess I'm just pursuing happiness I'm living much too fast a pace with two to care I'm just looking for a dream that I can share I'm sinking fast but no one hears my SOS I'm just pursuing happiness Almost everyone I know has someone to worry Someone to cheer them when they're low So if I walk by you in too big a hurry it's because I got no place to go Wherever people gather that's where I'll be found In hope that someone's hand will reach and slow me down Behind me I can feel that demon loneliness I'm just pursuing happiness [ el.banjo ] Almost everyone I know... I'm just persuing happiness I'm just pursuing happiness

So someone like Crisp, although nothing special, can give the Mets some versatile depth for the entire OF. He can hit LHP too which would be a plus. I'm not going to get too excited about Pagan's ST success but I wouldn't mind seeing him get a shot in LF though.

How Do You Measure Up?
Posted By Aaron On December 28, 2006 @ 2:21 pm In Fitness,Health,Reviews | Comments Disabled
Getting annual check-ups and exams is a great way to stay aware of your physical well-being. Some things only doctors can tell you, but there are a number of numerical figures that you can determine on your own to help establish the state of your physical condition.
Discovery Health has put together a number of tools and calculators that allow you to get personalized information about everything from your BMI (Body Mass Index) to what you should target your heart rate to be during exercise in order to "maximize the health benefits of cardiovascular activity."
Find out how many calories a specific activity burns, or how many calories you burn just laying in bed (basal metabolic rate). Be amazed at how many breaths you have taken or how many beats your heart has made in your lifetime.
Just like the Longevity Game [7] we brought you last week, these simple tools don't dig deep into serious health issues and concerns, but can wake us up to minor health problems and give us a new perspective. So try it out! Discover how you measure up with Discovery Health Tools [8].

TODAY | November 08, 2012
>>> and on thursday, with this nor'easter in the northeast, they're still reeling from hurricane sandy. al roker in danbury, connecticut , what's it look like up there?
>> reporter: well, a little bit like a winter wonderland , matt. records yesterday with all this snow. the earliest 4-inch snow ever. newark getting the biggest one-day snowfall in november ever. and i tell you, as you look at this system, we've got a time lapse of it from when it started going on to last night. and you can watch as cold air is drawn in, it's bringing in a lot of snow. this is a classic nor'easter. just very early. and the other part of the problem was it came right on the heels of having to deal with a hurricane. and guess what? we're not done with it yet. just ten days after hurricane sandy, this second storm was a sucker punch to the storm-ravaged northeast. the heavy snow causing accidents and more power outages to thousands of people here in connecticut . ahead of the storm wednesday, we were in point pleasant, new jersey, where workers built up dunes to protect the stripped and battered coast.
>> reporter: nobody can remember this happening, within a week and a half, the new jersey, new york, and new england coastline having to deal with a hurricane, a superstorm and now a nor'easter that's bringing pounding surf, rain, and heavy snow.
>> reporter: with beach communities already pummelled, new evacuations were ordered along the shore.
>> we may take a step back the next 24 hours , you need to be prepared for that. i need to prepare for that. i hate setbacks, i don't tolerate them very well, but this one i can't control. the weather it is what it is.
>> reporter: on long island, the effects of the back-to-back storms so severe, some describe it as unreal.
>> go from like a hurricane to a nor'easter and driving in snow, in the same week or same ten days, it's pretty unbelievable.
>> reporter: the long island railroad shut down by a power outage during the wednesday evening rush hour stranding thousands of commuters. with snow falling on darkened homes, the storm's timing couldn't be worse causing new power outages for thousands in an area where millions have been waiting more than a week to get their power back. in long beach, new york, she got a powerful surprise during an interview with nbc news on wednesday.
>> the heat, especially, is the big concern right now. we are cold. oh, my goodness.
>> reporter: what a great moment. and hopefully those are happening more and more throughout the northeast. let's show you what we've got right now with this nor'easter as it makes its way away from the northeast coast. it is still pummelling parts of the northeast. we've got wind gusts anywhere basically from a 52 to 47 miles per hour, nantucket, 68-mile-per-hour wind gusts. snowfall amounts, 7 inches in flushing queens , 13 inches, and connecticut , 12 inches in north haven , 4 inches in stoney brook , we've got snow up along the new england coast, rain right along the northeastern new england coast and the winds are going to continue today. wind gusts of up to 60 miles per hour in cape cod and the islands . and we're looking at strong winds up and down the east coast . we probably will see there. you can see massachusetts will see airport delays stretching all the way from boston down into washington, d.c. today. so we are not quite done with this, but it's just about over. that's the good news. we have to wait and see what else is coming. guys, back to you.
>> all right, al. thank you very much. of course, not everyone is as fortunate as that woman we saw who got her power back in the middle of that interview.

Rangers find body of climber, David Laurienti, killed in avalanche at Rocky Mountain National Park
Climbing partner, Lisa Foster, seriously injured
ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK, Colo. - A search team has found the body of a 43-year-old male climber who authorities believe was killed in a fall during an avalanche that seriously injured a fellow climber Sunday at Rocky Mountain National Park.
Searchers found David Laurienti's body about 2 p.m. Tuesday on the north slope of Ypsilon Mountain, said park spokeswoman Kyle Patterson.
Unable to safely remove his body Tuesday, park rangers moved it to a more secure location, Patterson said. The six-person park team involved in the recovery will be coming out of the backcountry on Tuesday night.
On Wednesday, park rangers will evaluate options for the safe recovery of the body, Patterson said. The recovery effort will be dictated largely by weather, wind and avalanche conditions.
Park officials believe Laurienti, of Estes Park, died from injuries sustained in a fall, likely occurring in an avalanche, Patterson said.
Laurienti's climbing partner, Lisa Foster, 45, of Estes Park, was seriously injured during the avalanche that struck the pair as they descended Ypsilon Mountain.
Foster told rangers the pair was hit by an avalanche about 6 p.m. Sunday as they climbed down the north side of Blitzen Ridge from the 13,514-foot mountain, Patterson said. Foster is a well-known hiking guide and author of several books about the park, including "Rocky Mountain National Park: The Complete Hiking Guide."
Park rangers launched a search Monday morning after the two climbers were reported overdue, Patterson said.
At about 2:45 p.m. Monday, park rangers found Foster in the upper Fay Lakes basin, about 6 miles from the Lawn Lake Trailhead.
Foster suffered numerous injuries, Patterson said. Park rangers evacuated her on a toboggan from Ypsilon Lake, which is about 4.5 miles from the Lawn Lake Trailhead. The rescue team and Foster reached the trailhead at 1 a.m. Tuesday. Larimer County Search and Rescue assisted in the evacuation.
Foster was transported by ambulance to Estes Park Medical Center. Details on her injuries and condition were not released.
Over 32 park rescuers were involved in Monday's efforts along with six members of Larimer County Search and Rescue.

FAIR has a new action alert out about the New York Times' snubbing the U.S. Senate candidate Jonathan Tasini. While the paper has given intensive coverage to numerous New Yorkers who thought about challenging appointed incumbent Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand–but in the end decided not to run–the Times has ignored Gillibrand's most prominent actual rival in the Democratic primary, aside from one rather snarky profile that appeared in January. Click here to send a message to the Times–which you can post a copy of in the comments thread below.
NYT Covers Tasini's 'Long Shot' Senate Bid
The New York Times, which we had criticized (FAIR Blog, 1/12/10, 1/13/10) for ignoring insurgent candidate Jonathan Tasini in its coverage of the New York Senate race, ran a substantial piece about his candidacy today (1/27/10). While the piece, by N.R. Kleinfield, had a somewhat wry tone as it stressed the "long shot" nature of Tasini's bid, it also gave him space to outline his progressive policy positions and how they differ from those of incumbent Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand.
Corporate Media Love a Horserace–but They Love Gatekeeping Even More
One of the frustrating things about corporate media coverage is that it's so focused on horserace coverage–who's likely to win or lose in voting that might be months or years away–and yet they're so bad at it. Take the matter of Jonathan Tasini, running in the Democratic senatorial primary in New York against incumbent Kirsten Gillibrand–and an apparent nonperson to the state's most powerful newspaper, the New York Times. The Times has lately run two extensive stories (1/11/11, 1/13/10) on whether Harold Ford, a former representative from Tennessee, would also run against Gillibrand–both of which ignored the fact that it […]
'Considering' a Campaign More Newsworthy Than Conducting One?
The New York Times ran a front-page story (1/11/10) on the race for the Senate seat held by New York Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand that omits mention of the sole Democratic candidate running a serious campaign against her. Jonathan Tasini (who garnered 125,000 votes in a bid for the seat against Hillary Clinton in 2006) declared in June of last year. But while the paper of record has logged numerous stories on the race–including several, like todayâ┚¬Ã¢"ž¢s, focusing on people who are "thinking about" challenging Gillibrand (e.g., "Thompson Won't Rule Out Pursuing U.S. Senate Seat," 12/19/09)–they have so far completely ignored […]

Karrie Webb wins 2013 Ladies Masters
Karrie Webb has recorded a record 8th win at Royal Pines, to claim the 2013 Ladies Masters title with a blemish free round of 66 that included 6 birdies.
The experience of seven-time major winner Karrie Webb came to the fore on the final day of the Ladies Masters at Royal Pines, with the teenage leaders struggling in windy conditions on the Gold Coast.
The compressed leader board saw 8 players within a couple of shots of each other at the start of the day, but conditions weren't favourable and a number of players struggled.
16-year-old amateur Su Oh shared the lead going into the final round, and an early birdie saw her claim the outright lead.
But as the wind picked up, so too did the pressure.
In the second last group, Webb birdied the 12th hole to move to -10.
In the final group, Oh then lost her way on the 12th green, dropping 2 shots to drop back to -10; and a three-way share of the lead with 17-year-old Ariya Jutanugarn, and Australian legend Karrie Webb.
Webb showed her class, chipping from just off the green to sink a birdie on the 14th and take the outright lead.
In the group behind her, the pressure started to tell.
Oh missed another putt for par on the 13th, dropping back to -9, and bringing her total to 3 dropped shots in 2 holes.
Oh then put her drive on the 14th into the bunker, and went on to miss the putt for par.
Webb on the other hand was going from strength to strength, driving majestically and finding the middle of the fairway off the tee.
She pushed an eagle putt on the 15th just wide, tapping home for birdie instead.
Karrie Webb stole the show at Royal Pines, with the experienced campaigner sweeping all before her to claim her 8th Ladies Masters title.
Webb made her debut at Royal Pines in 1994, and her 2012 win sees her equal Sam Snead's record of 8 title's in the same event, bringing her own title-tally to 39 wins overall.
Webb's attention now turns to the Australian Open, and you can see that tournament from the Royal Canberra Golf Course on ABC1 from February 14-17.

CPSC and Fisher Price Announce Recall of 11 Million Dangerous Toys
While it's good news that 11 million dangerous toys will be taken off store shelves before the start of the holiday toy buying season, the bad news is that the Fisher Price recall comes after children suffered injuries from these toys.
Three children almost choked on small parts on an infant toy. Ten toddlers were injured falling on a protruding key on a tricycle, and seven children needed stitches because of lacerations from falling against the pegs of a high chair.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission and toy manufacturers must do more to protect children from poorly designed and constructed toys.
This recall is a timely reminder to consumers shopping for children that, in spite of beefed up federal toy safety laws, consumers still need to scrutinize playthings before giving them to children. In particular, consumers should check for small parts that can cause choke hazards and for sharp edges and protrusions that can injure a child.
The dangers to kids are real: from 1990 to 2008, 196 children died after choking or asphyxiating on a toy or toy parts; three children died in 2008 alone.

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
O you who believe! Be afraid of Allaah and give up what remains (due to you) from Ribaa (from now onward) if you are (really) believers
[al-Baqarah 2:278]
This is a call from Allaah to give up riba and avoid it, because He has forbidden riba:
Allaah has permitted trading and forbidden Ribaa
[al-Baqarah 2:275 - interpretation of the meaning]
Consumption of riba is one of the causes of the humiliation of the Muslims, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: If you engage in eenah transactions, and are content with farming and hold on to the tails of cattle, and you forsake jihad for the sake of Allaah, Allaah will cause you to be humiliated and will not relieve you of that until you return to your religion.
Narrated by Abu Dawood, 3462; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 11.
[Translator's note: eenah transaction means to sell something for a price to be paid at a later date, then to buy it back for a lower price (to be paid immediately); this is a trick used to circumvent the prohibition on lending with interest]
The issue of buying shares in riba-based banks has been discussed previously. Please see questions nos. 8590 and 4714
With regard to the fast of one who commits a major sin - such as buying shares in a riba-based bank - it is valid but is imperfect, and he may not attain the reward of fasting.
Think about the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):
O you who believe! Observing As-Sawm (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)
[al-Baqarah 2:183]
In this verse Allaah mentions the reason why fasting is enjoined, which is as a means of fearing Allaah by doing obligatory duties and avoiding haraam things.
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Whoever does not give up false speech and acting upon it, Allaah has no need of his giving up his food and drink. Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 1903. in other words, Allaah does not simply mean that we should give up our food and drink when fasting, rather He wants us to fear Him, because He says (interpretation of the meaning):
… that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious)
See al-Sharh al-Mumti', 6/435
Al-Haafiz ibn Hajar (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: false speech and acting upon it - what is meant by false speech is lying, and acting upon it means doing what is implied by that.
Ibn al-Arabi said: what is meant by this hadeeth is that whoever does what is mentioned will not be rewarded for his fasting; the reward for fasting is not cannot outweigh the sin of false speech etc.
Al-Baydaawi said: the purpose behind the prescription of fasting is not just to be hungry and thirsty, rather the purpose is what that leads to of suppressing desires and taming one's evil inclinations. If this is not achieved, then Allaah will not regard it as acceptable.
It was understood from this that these actions invalidate the fast.

Productivity—as measured by output per hour of all persons—increased 0.8 percent in the nonfarm business sector in the first quarter of 2009, as output declined 8.2 percent and hours of all persons dropped 9.0 percent (seasonally adjusted annual rates).
The decrease in hours, 9.0 percent, was the largest since the first quarter of 1975, when hours fell 12.0 percent.
Over the last four quarters, productivity in the nonfarm business sector grew 1.8 percent. This was lower than the 2.5 percent average rate of growth from 2000 to 2007.
These data are from the BLS Productivity and Costs program. Data are subject to revision. For more information, see "Productivity and Costs, First Quarter 2009, Preliminary" (PDF) (HTML), news release USDL 09-0481.

I've just returned from the National Review cruise, seven days of listening to major conservative minds like PJ Media's own Victor Davis Hanson, Mark Steyn, Jonah Goldbergh, Ramesh Ponnuru, Mona Charen, John O'Sullivan, Andrew McCarthy, John Yoo, and many others. Again and again, as we motored through the Caribbean, I was struck by the speakers' quality of thought, their breadth of knowledge and depth of insight. And again and again, I found myself thinking, why doesn't the world at large get to see these guys more often?
I love Fox News. Love Hannity, O'Reilly, the whole gang, not to mention Rush, Ann Coulter, and of course the guy who gives my videos a home, Glenn Beck. But if you don't happen to be a conservative, if you're the typical individual who doesn't follow politics very closely but votes for the person who seems "fair" or "nice" or the one who doesn't cheat on his wife or the one who looks presidential, the most popular conservative commentators can seem brash, loud, aggressive, and even mean.
Meanwhile, you're probably getting your news from people whose approach to information is so one-sided as to be dishonest — people,I mean, like Brian Williams, George Stephanopolous, and Diane Sawyer. And yet they appear thoroughly presentable: polite, well-spoken — exuding elegance and good will even as they go about demonizing anyone they disagree with.
That's why the sort of commentators who were on the NR cruise could be invaluable weapons in the information wars. It would, I think, be very difficult for anyone to accuse Mona Charen of being brash or aggressive, or anything but the gracious, thoughtful, well-spoken lady she obviously is. It would be pretty hard to peg the soft-spoken, professorial VDH with being loud or mean. So too with Goldberg, Ponnuru, McCarthy, and the others.

I'd say, bit by bit, we ARE fighting back. I'm a college student at WSU (Washington State University) where leftism is/was running rampant. But more and more I'm seeing these students wake up to reality and start to understand exactly what conservatism is and they're embracing it. Slowly, but it's coming around nonetheless.

Thank you for taking the time to post here. As the father of four children who are now adults, I am encouraged by your observations.

This is encouraging, Shane. But the overriding truth in your statement is that most college students have to work much harder to obtain and express conservative views than to accept the left-leaning positions they are routinely fed.
November 22, 2011 - 7:31 am Link to this Comment | Reply-
If you thought that was encouraging, try this: the main mentality of college students these days is that "rebellion is cool." Ironically enough, it's by that motto that a lot of students are rebelling against the doctrines taught by these left-leaning professors. Amazing, isn't it? By becoming conservative and adopting the conservative lifestyle, these students are now considered rebels. And that's COOL!

Reading your work is like sitting down with like minded friends , having a few beers and talking about the world and its problems, but if there is one thing I admire about you it's your optimism.
I used to have that,and the only thing that keeps a glimmer of that optimism alive is the love I have for God, my family,my country and the knowledge that we have people like yourself on our side.
With that being said. What do we do? How do you fight something that makes absolutely no sense??? I look around me and besides the anger I feel there is an incredible sadness. We live in an era where we have so much to thank God for, yet everyone is complaining. The poorest person in this country would look like a rich man compared to the poor in someplace like Somalia. It's as if almost the entire population has been brainwashed into believing that up is down, right is wrong and wrong is not just right ,but noble. How do you enlighten people who believe they are OPPRESSED while texting on their Iphones.Trust me, my life is not easy, I'm not rich, I suffer every single day with crippling back pain and yet I don't blame anyone for anything,I don't take a dime from the Government, I get my a@# out of bed every morning and do the best I can. Andrew how do you fight against people who believe that because they exist they are owed something?November 21, 2011 - 9:25 am Link to this Comment | Reply-
Wisdom is the best weapon and it comes with age, knowledge and responsibilities. Western system of voting does not provide for it. It is vulgar one person – one vote.
For a start, there is a very important group, which is not represented in any election, though most politicians admitting (dishonestly as usual) that this is the most important group in the society. This group is children. The parents care about them, look after them, spending a lot of money on their education, food, cloth and other things, but have no no more to say about their future then other people with no children. Ask for 1/10th vote for every child given to mother or father and conservatives will win every election. There are other ways to improve the system, but this one is the easiest. Take politicians on when they saying about our children and make them to prove they care. If they don't, they should be accused of neglecting children and their future and that will be the end of political life.November 22, 2011 - 6:08 am Link to this Comment | Reply-
Ask for 1/10th vote for every child given to mother or father and conservatives will win every election.
So…because I went to college and got a job and didn't have children outside of marriage, the vote of a high-school dropout with 6 kids by 5 different deadbeats should be counted as 160% of my vote? How is that fair? How is that going to fix anything? More than half the children born in America are born to single mothers, and very few of them are going to vote for smaller government programs.

"This has always been a source of frustration for me too!! As I have written here before about the ideological arguments (our strengths) of the left and right. On the one hand you have an ideology that has always ended in totalitarianism that has killed argueably 126 million people in 126 years in all its variations, it has an economic agenda that has ruined; or is ruining every country that it has ever touched, both socially and economically.
On the other hand you have an ideology based on the founding documents of the U.S. An idea (personal liberty, freedom, and individual responsibility) that has lifted untold millions all over the globe out of poverty and backwardness at the same time saved millions from oppression worldwide. This ideology also created the most prosperous society and least prejudiced that has ever been.
…and we are losing the argument? You're kidding me right? NOPE!!"
Even if our politicians could get their messaging act together with the RNC it would make a huge difference.
The left captured the mainstream-the narrative-and our educational system because their ideology is immoral-bankrupt-and unfair. So they just keep chipping away as conservatives keep assuming the best of intentions from these people.

Andrew Klaven: Are you honestly suggesting the daughters (or sons, let's not be sexist) of elected officials are to be excluded from certain professions? Whatever you think about NBC, it is not a government appointment achieved by nepotism.
Do you even know Chelsea Clinton's politics? You are taking a huge leap of faith that she is a mirror for her parents. Are you?
It seems to me that while she held the difficult position of 'First Daughter' she conducted herself with modesty and grace. She always insisted that she is neither a public figure nor running for election and her privacy should be respected while she stays out of the political spotlight. Even on the rare occasion that her father and mother used her, as an adult, for some political advantage her role was loyal daughter. I would hope that my children and yours would do no less for us if we ever decided to run for office.

Deegee, NBC is as short on journalistic credibility and as long on suspicion of liberal bias as any part of the mainstream media. Hiring someone as a reporter, wholly without journalistic experience, just because she is the daughter of a liberal Democratic President and a liberal Democratic Senator certainly won't help NBC alleviate either problem. If the MSM has taken to hiring the children of famous politicians because they think that will improve their ratings, that means they've given up on credibility journalism in favor of celebrity journalism.

She has relevant university study and some experience in talking to the rich and famous. It would be the first time MSM thought that enough. Unless you can show NBC never hires correspondents without journalist experience you have no evidence for the claim she was only hired because of her father and mother.
BTW A major daily newspaper once offered me a job solely on the basis of a university degree.

Journalist experience? She doesn't have ANY experience; of course she was hired for her name. Without mummy and daddy she gets a job at MSNBC? She wouldn't even be allowed to intern – for free.

They say that the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree and with a mother like Hilary, with her involvement with Soros – Shadow Party which was organized by George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Harold McEwan, what are the odds that Chelsea is going to bring the viewers a balanced picture of the reality playing out before her eyes?

Oh, please – Andrew wasn't arguing that children of politicians shouldn't be excluded from certain professions such as broadcasting. Do you honestly believe that Chelsea Clinton was hired by NBC solely for her journalistic excellence? Can you link to evidence of past journalistic efforts – print, blog, video – by Chelsea Clinton that would have attracted the attention of the honchos at the NBC news division and caused them to declare, "Brilliant! That's the type of incisive reporting that we need here at NBC!" Face it – she was most likely hired because she's a moderately intelligent, telegenic child of a popular (liberal/progressive) former president.

I've always sided on giving Chelsea Clinton the benefit of the doubt on what she thinks about the world. I think that we can forgive her, her parents. Lets wait until she actually starts expressing her opinions about things before we judge her. For all we know, she might well be a rebel against Democrat dogma.

She campaigned for her mother in 2008. From that, we can infer she holds Democrat core beliefs.

From out of the mass of trained journalists, Chelsea is chosen because of her intellect and opinion. She is the absolute best for this position; her qualifications allow her to bypass those other jobs that are neither glamorous or well paid, but allow the tens of thousands of others competing for the same position to train and learn the business as they work their way up the ladder. That is the advantage of being the daughter of the "smartest" woman in the world and having a disbarred serial rapist for a father, it can be called reverse Affirmative Action or as more honest people phrase the practice, nepotism.

I'm still waiting for NBC to hire Al Franken. After all, he's already been on NBC (although on Saturday Night Live), he has far-left opinions, and he's a moron who can read off of a teleprompter. He would fit right in at NBC. And, if they can't get Franken, there's always Obama after he's thrown out of office in 2012.

It's not that the MSM lies, it's the omissions. After the mid term election landslide, the next day's lead story on ABC radio was profiling of muslims, followed by some health scare, then the elections. After the "blue dress" was found, the lead story next day was apples are good for your health. We should all watch for the omissions, it's comical.

Actually, I think the current approach is working. Yes, the left is fighting for the mainstream, but the Legacy Media's readership/viewership shrinks every day as more and more people shut off the TV News for good and turn to sites like this one.

Patience, Grasshopper. The wreckage of 80 years of liberalism cannot be reversed in a single election cycle. We now have a Tea Party. We have the New Media. The MSM's viewership/readership is dropping every day. The NYT is laying off reporters. The entire landscape so much more promising than even in 2008.

I have two children. One is in the military, practicing conservative values. Another attends Young Republican meetings in the middle of Manhattan. Both can argue in support of their beliefs and think for themselves. Whatever else we may or may not have accomplished in our lives, we did our job well with respect to our kids. Nothing else is more important.

Why don't we make more attempts to seize the mainstream back from the dishonest left?
Mr. Klavan: I'd say the attempts are being made. I'm not sure you're correct that only "the wrong sort" are making them. But we have a large problem, which arises directly from our degree of engagement: We're angry.
Our country is sliding toward bankruptcy and tyranny. Our federal government no longer pays the slightest attention to the Constitution. Our military men are called upon for tasks well outside their proper role, and for efforts far beyond their strength. Our chief executive has demonstrated repeatedly that he holds us in contempt. And it enrages us, both in parts and in sum.
Angry people have a hard time communicating with others who don't share their anger. It shows too easily. Worse, we can't help but entertain the question "Why aren't they angry too?", which seriously muddies our ability to address them in terms they'll find appropriate and congenial.
It would be nice, and inarguably more socially acceptable, not to be quite so angry…but given the state of affairs we're in, it's one hell of a lot to ask for.

Andrew…not sure if anyone who writes the articles pays any particular attention to the commenters (or just peruses them generally), but…this article of yours is certainly in my wheelhouse.
If I have a consistent theme running through my comments since the days I started commenting…as anyone who bothers to read what I write here will attest, this one is it.
The work done at NRO and here by VDH is a must read for me. I comment nearly every time he writes, sometimes to vent my own feelings and frustrations, sometimes just to support his brilliance. I am a huge fan of Jonah's and don't miss anything he writes. Stanley Kurtz is also a favorite of mine.
The folks here at PJM are my brethren. This is my home base for commenting. I consider Roger a hero for what he has done here…as well as Glenn. I consider the regular feature writers my cyber-friends, although I have met none of them. Including you.
My belief system considers the mass media empire to be conspiratorial in nature, robber barons of the truth, accessories before, during and after the fact in the attempted overthrow of the free market, assailants against the free flow of information and bagmen for leftists worldwide.
I don't consider them "mainstream" nor will I ever….ever….be caught calling them that. If they are the main stream, I don't want to drink from it. It's polluted with lies, distortions and intentional destruction of the truth.
Nor do I now ever give them a pass on "not recognizing" or being "in a bubble" so that their distortions are "unintentional". The coincidence probabilities have been shattered by the law of large numbers. Journolistas abound, some more stealthy than others, but there is a communal nature to the narrative, it never strays, there are no real outliers…and enough outed liars to obliterate the notion that their bias is subliminal.
MSNBC is the hard porn of small c communism, the Hustler magazine, spread eagle and not subtle.
But the opiate of the masses, the Matt Lauer, Brian Williams, Diane Sawyer wing of the morning show/evening news propaganda machine…is the soft porn of leftist agitprop.
Fox News is the only TV counterweight. Talk radio has its impact. Certainly the blogosphere attempts to fend off the onslaught of propaganda, the photoshopping, the faked documents, the disinformation, …but it's a mountain of BS, built up over five decades…assisted by Hollywood and academia…backed by SEIU/ACORN street thugs and the Midwest Academy, Cooper Union, New Party strategy sessions…as well as nearly the whole of the Democratic Party. With "public" broadcasting in their pocket.
Add in Soros' attempt to buy up the alternative media, Nancy Pelosi trying to "Fair" us out of a voice…it's nearly a shock we can find the truth, facts and evidence at all.
The free market is under siege. Capitalism is in the throes of an overthrow attempt. The reason we can't and won't fight back at an institutional level, is because the coup is already in place. The peer pressure, smear campaigns, slanders and frothing, raging attack on ANY attempt to combat the overthrow will be met with charges of McCarthyism, character assassination attempts and worse. It's much to ask.
If I make a billion dollars…I will do it. But, the non-leftists have been made timid and docile by the brutal and crushing retaliations for vocalizing anti-leftism. The Team Party has been smeared and slandered with charges as baseless as they are despicable.
By nature, non-leftists are not activists. They are rules followers, not rules breakers. They are not easy to get to rage against the machine. We sit there and take it, shake our heads in sorrow, dismay and disgust.
You are a better man than I…if you can get them to do more. The first order of business…is to get them to love the truth and want it…enough to fight against the smears and propaganda.
Until then, we can catch a few lies and block a few slanders and distortions …and do our best to hang on to the best nation that ever existed for a little while longer. In the end, thought…if we don't love the truth enough to champion it, then we don't love this land of ours enough to save it.

Do the contributors read our comments? Care? Does any of it stir them or prod them or make them think?
Are we a sounding board or an echo? Or are we here to serve as shoulders to lean on for each other and not much else?

Last year, during sweeps, O'Reilly made it very clear that the new sheriff in the nation is the Conservative MSM, by the numbers. Those of you who still use the old, outdated MSM—-meaning Main Steam Media—meaning The Left—-need to bring yourselves up to date. That MSM is much diminished, by the numbers, and becoming insignificant by the hour, day, week, month, year. Conservative MSM grows. Use the term. And for Heaven' Sake, stop with the bellyaching whining about what the Liberal MSM does by ommision, commision, suppression, and outright lies. Who really cares anymore? Give your throats and vocal chords a rest.
There are tens of millions of conservatives, independents, and quite a few liberals who view, listen, and read Conservative MSM. And Conservative news/editorial organizations are all out there, with new ones arriving daily. Picked up The Weekly for the first time just the other day. When you add up television(Fox News, Fox Business, cNBC Kudlow), the newspapers, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Washington Times; the magazines, NR, Weekly Standard, Commentary; the radio and Internet Conservative commentary, you begin to see that we have already taken control of the media.
I have stated many times that we need to stop referring to that Incredible Shrinking Audience entitled The Left as if they still controlled the national discourse in America. By referring the the MSM, meaning the Liberal MSM as if it were the dominant Media out there is to give them a position that is no longer valid. Referring to NBC,ABC,CBS, CNN, NYT,LAT, etc. as the dominant media is now false. Again: stop referring the the biased liberal media as the MSM. It is NOT anymore. The MSM is Conservative and it is US. Feel good about it.
Call it like it is. We have won. And we get stronger as we go. And yes, let still another Conservative TV channel come to life. Free enterprize will do it. And it will be easier after Election 2012, even if, Heaven Forfend, BHO limps in for another term. He will find things ungovernable. Watch what the new Congress is like. Just watch. Stay tuned.

If only this was true.
Several decades of complete dominance, flanked by academia and Hollywood…make this, however, …wishful thinking.
Anyone suggesting that the war is over, quit pointing out and registering complaints against the lies, distortions and leftist agitprop..is simply declaring "mission accomplished" a bit too early.
In fact, it is a dangerous and unwise position, in my opinion. NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, the NYTImes, WaPo, the LATimes, most major metropolitan newspapers, nearly all of the weekly magazines, the wire services, …are Democratic party operatives…with a far left agenda. The impact of celebrity and academic banner carriers is also too large to ignore.
To suggest that since 2008 and the unvetted, completely covered up, and distorted, fabricated election of a committed radical is now "a thing of the past"…and we should just "shut up and quit whining"…because the propaganda machine has been defeated…clangs off the ear as tone deaf and not just a little bit smug.
I could not disagree with this comment more if it had been written by Paul Krugman. It has the same tone and is just as offensive.

I read recently that 80% of the public still get 80% of their news information from the biased MSM television broadcasting networks. Creating a conservative network to counter this overwhelmingly left-wing bias would seem to be the smart thing to do, and I'm surprised the subject has so rarely comes up. Conservatives could either buy an existing network, request that the government provide an alternative network to the left-wing PBS, or create a new network from scratch, as Glenn Beck is trying to do. If this were funded by a public stock offering, I'm sure that there would be a lot of conservatives willing to buy its shares.

The fact that Chelsea Clinton was hired by NBC should surprise nobody. It's like any other situation where an influential parent has a kid who needs a job. What does he or she do? They put the bite on one of their good friends to employ the offspring. It's called "nepotism." The network news divisions and the Clintons are certainly "good friends" so young Ms. Clinton's employment should come as no surprise.

Indeed. The networks have always been hotbeds of nepotism. Even Fox isn't any better. Look at how many last names are the same as their more famous (and mostly commie) parents.
NBC used to have a policy that noone could hire their own kids. So did ABC. Anyone with a long memory knows they both used to be NBC red and NBC blue networks during radio days. Although they eventually became ABC and NBC, all those personnel remained best buddies. Their directors, producers, and technical people passed back and forth all the time. Both networks had rules forbidding the hiring of one's own relatives, so they just hired the kids of their old compatriots from the other network, and vice versa. Their kids got extremely well-paying, easy summer jobs, and once they grew up, they had jobs. And you want to know why they act like they've lived their whole lives in a bubble? Politicians do much the same thing, but we can always unelect them, if we don't like it. Noone tells the networks what to do. Freedom of the press, dontcha know.
The best part is that, if you were really lucky, you could eventually get a job at PBS (it's amazing how many children of network types work at NPR and PBS), where one must die to lose their job. Besides, the pay was better, and you can shoot your liberal mouth off all day long. It was always viewed as the Holy Employment Grail. How many years has Dianne Rehm been on NPR? Fossils ain't in it.
The McCains and Clintons are merely following in the nepotistic footsteps of the Wallaces, et al. They're all suspect, in my book, but so is the entire industry they work for. It has always been up to us to not be so damn credulously simple as to think they're telling us the truth and are not all just in it for themselves. Grow up. It's time.November 25, 2011 - 5:15 pm Link to this Comment | Reply

Exactly true. The mainstream media knows that if voter anger against Obama gets even worse an epidemic (for them) of straight party voting for the opposition will reduce the Democratic Party to a fringe radical group in Congress that gets steamrollered at every opportunity (and for good reason). The MSM has every reason to support dems to the hilt and no reason to be truthful if the politics of supporting them demands otherwise.

I'm finishing up a novel now that has a pro-military, pro-capitalist message, with some satire of higher education sprinkled on top, which will probably never see the light of day. Most novels don't, I suppose, but if I get as far as a publisher I'll probably be asked to throttle these elements. Then what? Cave and be published, or go to failure with my principles intact?

Baen Books has been very friendly to such novels. Military-fiction specialists Tom Kratman and John Ringo, among others, have published many books through them. If you've got the chops, I'm sure they'd give you a fair shake. Of course, the most important word in the previous sentence is "if."
Alternately, you could "go indie." The independent-writers movement has acquired quite a bit of force and is garnering a lot of attention. Look at SmashWords or Amazon's CreateSpace as alternatives to traditional publishing outlets.
It's a pretty good time to be a writer…especially if you don't plan to live on the proceeds!

'But why aren't we reaching out for everyone else as well?' The only way to reach everyone is by breaking up the media monopoly. First start with dismantling FTC, then stop cable companies from providing force content, everyone should be free to choose which channel will reach their house. This not only will cut off the revenue stream to Marxist media it will enable for opposition view point to flourish. Case in point if it weren't for Comcast NBC will not have survived. No wonder why the left with help of FTC wants to control the internet, they are scare to death of a competition.

What is stopping conservatives from simply buying the most egregious left wing propaganda organs like the New York Times, Washington Post, NBC, ABC and CBS and changing their policies from the top down?
Wealthy conservatives could conceivably do this as individuals although, personally, I'd love to see less affluent conservatives pool their money somehow and buy one or two of the worst offenders and transform them. I'm not talking about a purge of all the employees, just a firm editorial hand that will insist that the journalism be of the highest possible standard and as unbiased as it is possible for humans to make it. This will probably be intolerable for the Hard Left members of the organization that really just want to write propaganda and they will leave to join other existing media outlets or start new ones.
If this approach is followed, we should see these newspapers, TV networks, etc. should become a lot more fair and balanced in fairly short order.

Klavan poses a good question. The answer, I think is the nature of conservatives themselves, who by nature are independent and self-sufficient. For people like that, it's an unnatural act to step away from focussing on supporting themselves, their families and their businesses to organize decades long efforts to influence the culture. Essentially, conservatives are not natural politicians or "community organizers".
And that is why the left, people who universally seek to dominate and control other people, has been so successful. They are an army of professionals, dedicated 24x7x365, often willing to do literally anything to gain power, against a much larger group of citizens who oppose everything they stand for, but who are only willing to spend a few hours a week at best on political activities.
We should actually be thankful that Rupert Murdoch saw a business opportunity and founded Fox. He may be the only person who has gone mainstream with anything close to a conservative agenda. Heritage, Cato, et al, are great, but their mission in life is not the mass market. Murcoch's is.
I don't think this will change. It explains why the left, not matter how thoroughly defeated, alway manages to come back.
In a nutshell, they stop at nothing, whereas life inevitably stops us.

Mr. Klavan, as always, makes superb points. But in many ways, the mainstream media are little more than one among many of the unfortunate outcomes of a battle that was waged and lost in other institutions, most notably our universities, from the 1960s onward. A friend of mine vividly recalls talking to a faculty member at an Ivy league institution in the 1980s. My friend's foundation wanted to sponsor a seminar for a group of visiting foreign students that would examine the basic contours of American history and America's fundamental values. The program, the sponsors hoped, would be presented objectively and disinterestedly. The faculty member snickered in that dismissive and condescending way that the smug seem to have mastered. Surely my friend and his colleagues were rubes who just didn't get it. Reason? Objectivity? Disinterestedness? You must be joking. In his view, the very notion of "fundamental values" was quaint nonsense, and nothing more than a rhetorical tool used by those in power, etcetera, ad nauseam, etcetera. And here we are today, where one "narrative" is no better than another, no version of the truth more valid than any other, because the truth is itself an illusion and the only thing that matters is whether you can impose your "narrative" on others. This way of thinking is a betrayal of all that is good and redemptive about the West and its institutions. The damage done has been deep, and it will take much more than Rush and Fox to reclaim that heritage, which is clearly 'on the ropes.' But yes, it's a fight worth waging, and our educational institutions are the key.

Where is Chelsea's wedding ring? Why no hyphenated last name, has the multi-million dollar wedding already gone down the tubes? Perhaps she can do a co-anchor with Amy Carter. I've read that Jenna Bush got hired too but I suppose that is not such a coup.

"I've read that Jenna Bush got hired too but I suppose that is not such a coup."
From wikipedia, for what it's worth:
In August 2009, NBC hired Hager as a new correspondent for the morning television show Today. Her role is to contribute stories about once a month on issues such as education.

Mr. Klavan, nice column. Back when I believed I was a liberal, I would read an occasional conservative column. Mainly George Will, and almost never Cal Thomas. I thought George's print photos made him look curdled. I thought his opinions were curdled, and so was he, whenever I saw him on TV. And I had the same opinion of Cal Thomas, until I saw him on TV for the first time.
Bam! He might have been on Donahue. I thought, what a nice, gentle man. I also thought he was out-gunned. His was the only contrary opinion on the show. Every one was yelling, or having their say. Mr. Thomas sat quietly, waiting for his chance to speak. Occasionally he did. I didn't agree with him, but he agreed with me.
It would be many years still, before I started to give conservative opinions any real thought. But whenever I read something I didn't like, I would think how I knew of at least one conservative, who was not mean, or loud, or offensive.

While South Florida was blooming as a billfishing capital in the '50s, Don de Sylva was locked in a lab at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, studying tuna. After receiving his master's degree in marine biology in 1953, he headed for warmer climes, enrolling in the University of Miami's Institute of Marine Science, a forerunner of the Rosenstiel school. Then he got hooked on billfish. "I was just fascinated at these things that weighed a ton," he says. "I still can't get over the fact that they go from a quarter-inch long to over a thousand pounds."
Little money was available to study billfish. Research funds were reserved mostly for species targeted by commercial fisheries, such as tuna. So de Sylva and other researchers turned to wealthy sport fishermen. "They would give us $5000 here and there," de Sylva remembers. Indeed, anglers formed groups like the Sailfish Conservation Club in West Palm Beach, one of the first such groups. De Sylva and other University of Miami researchers attended fishing tournaments, which provided ample specimens for study. Legions of recreational anglers also tagged the fish they caught, allowing researchers to gain an idea of their migratory and growth patterns.
De Sylva caught his first baby billfish in June 1956 in the Gulf Stream near the Bimini Islands, on an excursion financed by appliance scion and angler Robert Maytag. "We caught 13 sailfish in the first half-hour," de Sylva recounts with glee. The data he gleaned were added to a small but growing body of scientific knowledge about the early life of billfish. In 1961 de Sylva discovered a previously unknown species: the longbill spearfish. He named it Tetrapturus pfluegeri in homage to Al Pflueger, a local sport fisherman devoted to billfish research.
While de Sylva and other biologists were plucking babies from the Gulf Stream, commercial fishing fleets were bagging vast quantities of adults. Technological developments during the '50s and '60s allowed these fleets to grow in capacity and range. Some scientists helped fishermen by providing more precise knowledge of the fish's habits.
De Sylva and other researchers pressed on despite a shortage of money and repeated setbacks. A 1967 fire at Rosenstiel destroyed his office and laboratory, including almost his entire collection of billfish. In a jar that had been in a museum at the school, he keeps one remaining specimen: a baby sailfish caught in 1965 off the Ivory Coast. Some photographs and sketches of larvae also survived the blaze. In the late '60s, de Sylva assembled 25 kits for catching the infants, each composed of a waterproof lamp and two dip nets. He sent them to sport fishermen in the Caribbean, who were going to help collect samples, but the project fizzled. "They found they were good to collect shrimp and that's all they used them for," he recalls.
During the '70s and '80s, research proceeded at a snail's pace, still suffering from a lack of funding. But in 1994 the Rosenstiel school formed the billfish research team and received an infusion of money from the Ohio-based Hoover Foundation and two wealthy sport fishermen. De Sylva, the group's senior member, is planning to retire next year. One of his lamps, now 30 years old, lingers on as a vital piece of equipment and a symbol of how primitive the methods used to study these elusive fish still are.
Today billfish have a network of allies that stretches far beyond the scientific community. About 20 miles north and 10 miles west of the Gulf Stream research site lies another bastion of billfish boosters: the Billfish Foundation. Located on the top floor of a three-story First Union bank building in Fort Lauderdale, it is also a shrine to the creatures. Aqua-hued paintings of marlin and sailfish cover the walls, and life-size replicas jut from tabletops. Billfish T-shirts are displayed on three truncated plastic torsos on a desk in the reception area. Stacks of brochures, newsletters, bumper stickers, and other information abound.
The foundation, established in 1986 by a group of wealthy anglers, has a double mission: to conserve the fish and to protect the sport. On a recent afternoon, executive director Ellen Peel, clad in a fuchsia Billfish Foundation polo shirt, is at her desk trying to affect federal regulations. "We've been treated as a silent hobby and not as an industry for so long," she huffs. She's just been on the phone to the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in Washington expressing her displeasure over the dearth of conservation plans. A lawyer originally from Gulfport, Mississippi, Peel has been pressing the NMFS to prohibit commercial fishing in the Atlantic off Florida's southeast coast and in the north-central Gulf of Mexico. But the newest proposals do not include such bans.
The foundation argues that maintaining plentiful billfish populations is not only sound ecology but good business. "The economic benefit of the sport-fishing industry is staggering," Peel asserts. The foundation commissioned a 1990 study by Texas A&M University researchers, who found that U.S. billfishing tournaments in the western Atlantic pumped $180 million into local economies during 1989 and 1990. Peel says a "sea change" is already occurring on Capitol Hill, one that is giving the sport-fishing industry a higher profile.

2009 Chrysler Aspen Hybrid Limited 4WD
ProsHas more power than 5.7L HEMI alone. It has been averaging 20mpg with mixed driving. I drove from Alabama to Texas last year following an ambulance our church was donating to a mission in Honduras. At average speed of 55mph, I averaged 26 mpg. ConsThe transmission just was not designed with the hybrid in mind. The transmission felt like it was slipping. Then the check engine light came on. It took Chrysler and my dealer 2 months to figure it out and get it fixed. Thank goodness for the extended warranty. But I was without all my Aspen Limited toys for 2 months and stuck in cheap rentals!!!
Lots Of Room, Seats 7 Comfortably (for Short Trips) And Good Gas Mileage. — The transmission was not designed specifically for the hybrid; thus, it seems to get confused. I am a field rep for a pacemaker company. I have a half million worth of gear in the back end and there is plenty of space for all of it. Driving across northern Alabama, it gets great mileage for its size. Overall I like it. I had to buy it used since Chrysler had discontinued making them.

C.J. Wilson holds off Mariners as Hamilton's slump continues for Angels
ANAHEIM, Calif. -- In a game in which every pitch was critical, the only run scored on a wild pitch. That's all that separated C.J. Wilson and Joe Saunders.
Wilson outdueled the former Los Angeles Angels left-hander with seven innings of two-hit ball, leading Los Angeles to a 1-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday night.
"Every pitch counts, obviously," Wilson said. "I had this exact kind of game to Jered Weaver a couple of years ago and lost 1-0 on a fly ball that Endy Chavez dropped. Mike Trout scored the run after I hit him in the foot, so it was kind of like turnabout is fair play."
Wilson (6-5) struck out three, walked two and allowed only two runners as far as second base en route to his fifth straight victory over the Mariners.
More on the Angels
For more news, notes and analysis of the Angels, check out ESPN Los Angeles' blog. »
"I've faced these guys three times this year, and they pretty much have an idea of what my repertoire is. So it's about executing," Wilson said. "I can't fool them on stuff right down the middle because they're not going to get surprised if I throw a slider or a changeup, so I have to hit the corners."
Saunders matched zeros with Wilson through five innings, scattering four hits before Trout legged out a leadoff double to left field in the sixth. He advanced after a fly ball to right by Albert Pujols and scored on a 2-2 pitch to Mark Trumbo that bounced in the dirt and away from catcher Mike Zunino. It was the first wild pitch of the season for Saunders in 89 2/3 innings to that point.
"It was a tough one, but I'm more mad at myself for letting a run score on a wild pitch," Saunders said. "It was a changeup down. I was trying to get him to hit it on the ground."
Kendrys Morales' chop single toward third base leading off the second inning was Seattle's only hit until Kyle Seager's leadoff single in the seventh. But Wilson froze Raul Ibanez on a called third strike in the seventh with runners at first and second, and escaped the inning unscathed when Trout ran down Zunino's drive in front of the bullpen fence.
"It's Mike Trout. Put a cape on him. He's great out there," Wilson said. "That was one of the few curve balls I threw all night, and he was looking for it. It was a strike and he hit it. I was lucky that he didn't hit it higher.
" They put a lot of balls in play, so it really wasn't a really dominating game for me. I was just making good pitches, but I don't think I had exceptional stuff. That's why I wasn't able to get the strikeouts, which usually are kind of my bail-out if there's a problem in the inning."
Scott Downs pitched a perfect eighth and Ernesto Frieri did likewise in the ninth for his 16th save in 17 attempts.
"It's one of those things where runs were hard to come by tonight," Saunders said. "We didn't score any runs, so you've just got to hang with him. He stepped up his game and I stepped up my game, and it was one of those pitchers' duels. I just picked the wrong day to pitch."
Saunders (5-7) went the distance for the ninth time in 204 career starts, allowing six hits over eight innings with three strikeouts and two walks. A first-round draft pick by the Angels in 2002, he made only one other start against them since he was traded to Arizona in July 2010 for Dan Haren. That was on June 16, 2012, at the "Big A," when he lost 2-0 on a two-run homer in the first inning by Trumbo.
Slumping Josh Hamilton was dropped to seventh in the Angels' lineup by manager Mike Scioscia, one night after he grounded into double plays his first three times up and struck out twice. It was the first time that the 2010 AL MVP started a game in the seven hole since Aug. 5, 1990, with the Texas Rangers. But the change didn't help, as he went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and saw his average dip to .210.
"We've got to figure out something," Hamilton said. "Some players wear emotions on their sleeves and break things, but I'm not going to break my bat on the field because there's kids watching. If they don't think I care, they're mistaken because it hurts me more than it hurts anybody not to be performing."
Game notes
Peter Bourjos was stranded at third base in the third inning when Saunders induced a double-play grounder by Albert Pujols. The Angels have grounded into a major league-worst 77 DPs, 11 of them in the past five games. ... Kendrick lined a single through the box in the sixth, knocking Saunders' glove right off his hand. ... Wilson, who spent his first five big league seasons as a reliever with the Rangers, reached the 1,000-inning mark when he retired Michael Saunders on a foul popup to end the second. ... Erick Aybar got his 100th career stolen base and first since April 30, surpassing Dick Schofield as the Angels' career leader among shortstops. ... Wilson is 8-1 against Seattle in 10 starts since the beginning of the 2011 season.

Officials at Western Kentucky University have announced that for the first time in program history, the Toppers will host an SEC team at Houchens-L.T. Smith Stadium as part of a three-game series with Vanderbilt. In the announcement made Wednesday, WKU officials say the series is broken up into two parts for the Hilltoppers and Commodores. Set to take place over the 2015-17 seasons, the teams will trade home games in Nashville on Sept. 12, 2015 and in Bowling Green on Sept. 4, 2016, before the Hilltoppers will play one guarantee game in Nashville on Nov. 4, 2017. Situated just 67 miles apart, the universities have a sparse history between each, with only five all-time meetings on the gridiron, including three varsity matchups between 1931 and 1938. Most recently, the Tops fell to Vanderbilt 12-0 in Nashville on Oct. 1, 1938. In all, WKU has 18 total games against SEC foes and is set to add two more to that total in 2013.
Last week, the program announced the addition of Illinois to its 2017 road schedule. The Tops will also travel to Champaign in 2014 for their first ever meeting with the Illini.

This quite little place on State Street in Orem is definitely a bargain, but you're not getting anything more than a bed, a shower, and a little kitchen. But you can't beat the price, and it's bearable if you're looking to save some money.
