Tolkien, Eliot Spitzer and Appalachia
By Sean Kirst | email@example.com
March 25, 2006, 12:00AM
I expect that I'll have some readers of "The Lord of the Rings" weighing in on the blog or forum today for Tolkien Reading Day. It strikes me that the whole furor this week about Eliot Spitzer, and his description of Upstate New York as resembling Appalachia, reminds me of why I always loved Tolkien so much. While Spitzer made... Full story »

March 25, 2006, 12:00AM
A note from a reader regarding Tolkien Reading Day: Sean, What passage fits into my daily routine? As I get older, I, like Gandalf, find myself speaking out loud without directing my comments to those others in the room. My older daughter, Arwen (really), asked me once why I did that and, without thinking I said "...I was talking (aloud)... Full story »
Tolkien and Destiny, as in USA
By Sean Kirst | email@example.com
March 24, 2006, 12:00AM
Some of you may have noticed my invitation on this blog to participate Saturday in the Tolkien Reading Day. I noted how some of us who love The Lord of the Rings come to a point where passages pop into our minds at the most unlikely times. That happened to me today, for instance, when I read Destiny USA's list... Full story »
The International Tolkien Reading Day: How it started
By Sean Kirst | firstname.lastname@example.com
March 20, 2006, 12:00AM
So let me tell you a wild story. A few years ago, I was in contact with the Tolkien Society in England about a column I was writing (see "read more"). One night, out of curiousity, I sent the group an e-mail. I mentioned how "Bloomsday" has become an international reading day for fans of James Joyce. I asked why... Full story »
Narnia and wiretaps
By Sean Kirst | firstname.lastname@example.com
December 30, 2005, 12:00AM
I'm reading the books in "The Chronicles of Narnia" to my youngest son. Right now we're in the middle of "The Magician's Nephew," in which C.S. Lewis - the British philosopher and long-time buddy of JRR Tolkien - explains how evil first came to Narnia. Evil arrived in the form of a savage witch-queen named Jadis. At one point in...

A Fine Unit with one flaw
By Our Farm
from Rockville, VA
We have been happy with Panasonic before and bought this unit for use in our remodeled kitchen. The quality seems excellent and the performance is as well. However, the display is lousey. Unless you are looking directly at it it is impossible to read. We have the unit on top of the kitchen counter but still have to bend over to read the display and set the run time each time we use the machine- which is often. It is an irritating design flaw in a fine product

The DeSmog UK epic history series continues with a look at how oil-funded lobbyists increased their attacks on climate science as Bill Clinton's new policy era began.
The 1993 election of President Bill Clinton in the US heralded a new era in climate policy. And, in turn, the oil industry lobbyists would intensify their attacks on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

"You are old, Father William," the young man cried;
"The few locks which are left you are gray;
You are hale, Father William—a hearty old man;
Now tell me the reason, I pray.""In the days of my youth," Father William replied;
"I remembered that youth would fly fast,
And abused not my health and my vigor at first,
That I never might need them at last."Southey, "The Old Man's Comforts and How He Gained Them"
"You are old, Father William," the young man said,Parodies have existed since literature began. Aristophanes brilliantly parodied the plays of Euripides; Cervantes's Don Quixote (1605-15) parodies chivalric romances; Henry Fielding's novel Joseph Andrews (1742) parodies Samuel Richardson's moral novel Pamela (1740); and Max Beerbohm's A Christmas Garland (1912) wickedly parodies such authors as Kipling, Conrad, and Henry James. Noted 20th-century parodists include Ogden Nash, S. J. Perelman, Robert Benchley, James Thurber, E. B. White, and Woody Allen.
"And your hair has turned very white,
And yet you incessantly stand on your head—
Do you think at your age it is right?""In my youth," Father William replied to his son,
"I feared it might injure the brain;
But now that I'm perfectly sure I have none,
Why I do it again and again."Carroll, "Father William"
In literature, a work in which the style of an author is closely imitated for comic effect or in ridicule. Differing from both burlesque (by the depth of its technical penetration) and travesty (which treats dignified subjects in a trivial manner), parody mercilessly exposes the tricks of manner and thought of its victim and therefore cannot be written without a thorough appreciation of the work it ridicules. Examples date from as early as ancient Greece and occur in nearly all literatures and all periods.
Learn more about parody with a free trial on Britannica.com.
Sometimes critics use the word figuratively to mean the artist's style and preoccupations appear as strongly (and perhaps as ineptly) in some work as they would in a parody. Such works may result from habit, self-indulgence, or an effort to please an audience by providing something familiar. Ernest Hemingway has frequently been a target for such comments. An example from Paul Johnson's book Intellectuals:
Political polemicists use the term similarly, as in this headline of a 2004 blog posting. "We Would Satirize Their Debate And Post-Debate Coverage, But They Are So Absurd At This Point They Are Their Own Self-Parody".
The following are deliberate self-parodies or are at least often considered to be so:

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Huge student housing plans for Durham downtown
Tuesday, January 21, 2014
DURHAM — Two huge student housing projects that would continue to reshape downtown Durham are going before the town Planning Board Wednesday.
As proposed, the new buildings would reach five stories at the tallest points and likely will feature solar panels. The company also hopes to attract the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory and other commercial tenants such a cafe or restaurant within the buildings.
The development plan calls for demolishing houses at 27 and 29 Main St. and building new structures in their place. It also calls for upgrading houses at 25 and 35 Main St. and construction of two additional buildings, one at the rear of the roughly 1.1-acre site and one that faces Main Street. |

High Speed Interurban or Inter-city Trolleys Connect Many Major U.S. and Canadian Cities Interurban Trolley Lines Spread Across North America It wasn't long after the city or urban street railways were electrified, that companies were formed to provide frequent, inexpensive, high speed trolley service between cities, all over the United States and many parts of Canada. These larger, and much faster inter-city trolleys, were called interurbans. Early 20th century interurban train which was operated by the Coeur D'Alene & Spokane Railway in the State of Washington. (Postcard from the collection of Rick Russell) Interurban Trolleys Had Many Advantages Over Steam Railroads In the late 1800's and early 1900's, the interurban trolley lines spread very rapidly, competing against the steam railroads for inter-city passengers in many areas of North America. The interurbans had several advantages over the steam railroads.
Interurban trolleys of the Ohio Electric Railway, meet at the interurban station, on West Market Street, in downtown Lima, Ohio. (Postcard from the collection of Rick Russell) At one time, Indianapolis, Indiana had the world's largest interurban terminal. It was located right in the downtown area. Opened in 1904, the great "Traction Terminal" in Indianapolis, Indiana, grew to become the largest interurban railway terminal in the world. In its heyday, this terminal hosted some 7 million passengers a year, and 500 interurban trains a day, from all over the state of Indiana, and as far away as, Louisville, Kentucky. (Postcard from the collection of Rick Russell). Interurban Trolley Lines Also Provided Freight Service Many interurban trolley lines supplemented their income from passenger service, by providing car load (CL), and less than car load (LCL) freight and package delivery services. Many merchants and manufacturing companies, depended on the fast, frequent service provided by the interurban trolley lines, to deliver their goods to customers in the cities, towns and rural areas, they served. Indiana Railroad trolley freight motor (used to carry LCL freight and packages), hauling a box car (for car load freight) into the freight station in Muncie, Indiana (Photo from the collection of Rick Russell) In the 1930's Some Interurbans Upgraded Equipment to Attract Passengers In order to compete against the automobile and buses, some interurban trolley lines made an attempt to stay in business, by purchasing modern, lightweight, more economical, high speed equipment, such as #1030 of the Lehigh Valley Transit Company (pictured below). Lehigh Valley Transit Company #1030, formerly Indiana Railroad Company #55, shown arriving at "Arundel Station" at the Seashore Trolley Museum, Kennebunkport, Maine. (Photo by Rick Russell) Car #1030, ran in Indiana on the Indiana Railroad as #55, and later in Pennsylvania, on the Lehigh Valley Transit Company's high speed, interurban trolley line, between Philadelphia and Allentown. This car is capable of speeds close to 100 miles per hour. It is a deluxe parlor car, and can be seen, and on special occasions, ridden at The Seashore Trolley Museum, in Kennebunkport, Maine. The World War ll Years Bring Short-lived Prosperity to The Few Interurbans Still Operating The World War ll years were prosperous times for the few interurban trolley lines, which were still in business when America was drawn into the war, by the bombing of Pearl Harbor. The rationing of gasoline and tires, and the limited availability of new automobiles, forced Americans to turn to public transportation, to get to work, or to travel for business or pleasure. Some interurban trolley lines enjoyed passenger counts, which they hadn't seen since the very early 1900's, before automobiles became readily available. This may be the reason why, in 1946, The Illinois Terminal Railroad, a large mid-western interurban trolley system, which connected St Louis, Missouri with much of the central part of the state of Illinois, made an ill advised million dollar investment in new interurban passenger equipment. That decision would turn out to prove once and for all, that the interurban railroads could not compete against the automobile. It was hoped that the new equipment, would help the Illinois Terminal Railroad, maintain its passenger counts, at levels close to those they enjoyed during the war years. However, by the time the new equipment started to arrive in the fall of 1948, it was too late. The ready availability of new automobiles, and gasoline after the wartime years of rationing, was too much for the American public to resist. People were once again able to be mobile, when they wanted to be, and were not tied to the schedules of public transportation systems. One of the three new streamlined, electric interurban trains, the "Fort Crevecoeur", delivered to the Illinois Terminal Railroad, by the St. Louis Car Company, is shown above at the terminal in Springfield, Illinois. This appears to be a publicity photo, commissioned by the Illinois Terminal, and put on a post card. It is assumed that the post card was sold in company terminals. The other two trains were named the "City of Decatur" and the "Mound City". (Postcard from the collection of Rick Russell). The three new streamlined trains, which were ordered from the St. Louis Car Company, were state of the art, and had all the amenities (including air conditioning and a parlor-lounge-observation car), of the modern streamlined trains, which were being operated by the steam railroads, that competed with the Illinois Terminal, for passengers traveling between central Illinois, and St. Louis, Missouri. Copy of desk calendar issued by the Illinois Terminal Railroad in 1950, to promote the three new streamlined interurban trains. (Calendar from the collection of Rick Russell).

A Message from Chief Sean Whent
To the Oakland Community:
Thank You for Your Continued Dedication to Oakland
To the Oakland Community,
As 2015 begins, I'd like to thank you for your continued dedication to Oakland. As residents and business owners, you are clearly committed to this amazing City and you absolutely deserve to live and work in safe and thriving neighborhoods.
Together we are moving Oakland forward and our collective efforts have resulted in notable crime reductions, increased community and police collaboration, and continued progress with our reform efforts.
We ended 2014 with an 11% reduction in murders, a 13% reduction in shootings, a 31% reduction in robberies, and a 28% reduction in residential burglaries. I am encouraged by the recent reduction in crime but recognize that present levels of violent crime are still too high. The data-driven and intelligence-based strategies we have employed have proved impactful and we intend to strengthen and refine these efforts as the Police Department grows. Reducing violent crime remains our number one priority.
(Read the Chief's full message by clicking this link)
2015年剛剛臨到,我希望多謝你一直對屋崙(奧克蘭)的支持。. . .
En este 2015, quiero agradecerles por su dedicación continua a Oakland. . . .

OPD and CHP Sideshow / Street Racing PSA Video Recognized by State Government Website - On Friday, July 25, 2014, the Oakland Police Department learned that a public safety address (PSA) created by OPD Public Information Officer Johnna Watson and California Highway Patrol Officer Sean Wilkenfeld had been placed on the State of California website (ca.gov). The selection of the PSA for posting on a statewide forum indicates that information regarding sideshows and street racing is pertinent to a vast audience. On the video, Officers Watson and Wilkenfeld speak plainly about the negatives associated with sideshow activity and street racing: endangering participants, bystanders and other motorists; attracting other criminal activities; and, for those who are caught participating in sideshows, losing your car (it will be towed) and going to jail. The video can be seen on the ca.gov website ("Latest Videos") or pulled up directly on youtube.
"What Does It Take to Be a Cop in Oakland?" – A Great Story on Local Public Radio - KALW radio reporter Kyung Jin Lee interviewed new and veteran officers on what it takes to be a cop in Oakland. The story is very positive about the Oakland Police Department. The 9-minute audio interview can be heard on KALW 91.7 FM. (It is recommended that you use Google Chrome or Firefox rather than Explorer to pull up the link).
OPD Honored at the TransVision Trans Pride Gala – On Friday, August 29, 2014, the Oakland Pride Weekend was officially started off in high style with the TransVision Trans Pride Gala at City Hall, sponsored by Mayor Quan and Council Members Kaplan and McElhaney. Among community partners being honored at the event, the Oakland Police Department received the Trans Community Partner Award for Improved Community Relations, Outreach, and Partnership. Mistress of Ceremonies and TransVision Program Manager Tiffany Woods presented the award to Police Chief Sean Whent, who accepted the award on behalf of the Department. TransVision, a program of Tri-City Health Center in Fremont, is an award-winning resource for transgender, transsexual women in Alameda County.
The Blotter
OPD-SFPD Teamwork Brings Two Violent Robbers into Custody – On Wednesday, February 25, 2015 at about 12:10 AM, Oakland Police officers responded to a report of a robbery in the area of 17th and Alice Streets. Upon arrival, the officers located an Oakland resident who reported that he had just been robbed and pistol whipped by three suspects. The victim was able to give the responding officers a detailed description of the suspects and their vehicle. Officers tracked the suspects to San Francisco and teamed with the San Francisco Police Department to locate the vehicle and arrest two suspects. The victim's loss was recovered.
Armed Robber Arrested – On Sunday, February 15 at about 9:14 p.m., Oakland Police officers on patrol in the 1200 block of Excelsior Avenue observed a vehicle that was wanted in connection with an armed robbery that had occurred the day before in the 3500 block of E. 16th Street. The officers attempted to conduct a traffic enforcement stop but the driver fled from the vehicle into a nearby yard. After a short foot pursuit, the officers were able to take him into custody. The officers recovered an illegal firearm and stolen items from the car.
OPD Arrests Carjacking Suspect – On Wednesday, February 11 at 6:26 p.m., Oakland Police officers on patrol in the 6600 block of International Boulevard observed a vehicle driving erratically and began to follow it. When the officers discovered that the vehicle had been carjacked the day before, they conducted a traffic enforcement stop. The officers arrested the driver, 16, who was already on probation for carjacking. He was taken to Juvenile Hall and the car was released to the owner.
Carjacking Prevented - On February 2 at about 7:50 p.m., Oakland Police officers observed a vehicle driving slowly in a residential area with the lights turned off. It appeared the vehicle was about to come to a stop behind a woman who had just parked and exited her vehicle. The officers ran a file check on the vehicle and learned that it was reported stolen. The two suspects in the vehicle saw the police and immediately fled the area. Both suspects were detained after a short vehicle and foot pursuit. One illegally possessed firearm was located inside the suspect vehicle.
The Oakland Police Department would like to remind you: If You See Crime, Report Crime.
If you're in Oakland, pre-program your cell phone to the Emergency number (777-3211) so that your emergency call will not be routed through the Highway Patrol. Instead, it will go directly to Dispatch. |

Love these too. Awesome when served with any steak meal.
Shamis H. - Rochester, NY
I love this side, and quick to make in microwave.
Maritza M. - New York, NY
Personally I like combinations of flavors that also allow each individual flavor to stand out. Like 'Mmm potato, oh there's the saltiness of the cheese and bacon, ah there's that sharp spike of the onion." Not so much with this.
I guess cause fillings blended so well. The texture was nice and soft. I'm
sure others would love it. I wouldn't order it unless it happend to come with my order.
Jessica B. - Jenks, OK
Much easier than having to make them on my own and taste excellent also.
Dorynda B. - Cameron, TX
Great! So quick and easy to have on the table. Seasoned perfectly.
Robert W. - Lynchburg, VA

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Tempe's Orbit buses are trying out a new look next week.
Starting July 22, the city will introduce New Flyer's MiDi bus models. The vehicles are 6 feet longer than the Orbit's current bus and can fit about 30 more passengers.
The new bus will have 27 seats and accommodate 26 standing passengers. However, it will not support a bike rack in the front, but will be required to have one in the future.
The bus now has only 17 seats and room for six standing passengers.
"This is a great opportunity for Tempe to test a bus with higher passenger capacity on Orbit routes with virtually no cost to the city," said Greg Jordan, a spokesman for Tempe's transit department. "The testing program requires the bus to operate in-service on the five Orbit routes for up to four months."
A press release from the city of Tempe says after determining if the testing program is successful and the new bus is accepted by the community and City Council, they could consider utilizing the new model by 2017.

The 2006 season sees 11 teams competing in the FIA Formula One World Championship for the first time since the demise of Arrows in 2002. The newcomers are the Super Aguri team.
Super Aguri, founded by ex-Formula One driver Aguri Suzuki, have faced a race against time to get their challenge ready for the first round of the season, struggling both to be given permission to race, and more recently to actually manage to get a car together. Despite being run from Arrows F1's former base in Leafield, England, Super Aguri are seen as a predominantly Japanese team, with two Japanese drivers in Takuma Sato and Yuji Ide, plus a supply of customer-spec engines from Honda.
Work on creating the team went on for months before the official launch, with plans becoming widely known throughout the paddock during the second half of last season. Indeed, Sato went so far as to announce that he would likely be driving for what was a still-unconfirmed team when he left BAR.
Unfortunately for Super Aguri, problems with their initial application for entry to the 2006 championship meant they were forced to gain the consent of every other team in order to race. Fortunately, all of their rivals eventually agreed, thought it meant further delays that Super Aguri could have done without. The team's original plans revolved around racing a developed version of a former BAR chassis, but these were abandoned when other teams argued that this would break the sporting regulations. This, together with the team's late entry, means that they have not been able to get their 2006 car ready to race in time and will start the season using a machine based on an upgraded version of Arrows 2002 A23 chassis.
These were the cars bought from the liquidators of the Arrows team by Minardi's Paul Stoddart and subsequently resold to Super Aguri. The team have modified the chassis to take the Honda V8 engines and to ensure they meet 2006's more stringent safety requirements. A new aerodynamic package, also to 2006 standards, will also be introduced before the first race of the season, though this has undergone only minimal testing. The team has announced plans to introduce their own 2006 car at the San Marino Grand Prix, though this date may yet prove somewhat optimistic.
With such an outdated car, few expect Super Aguri to doing anything more than make up the numbers during the first few races of 2006, and the team tacitly acknowledge that to run in any position higher than last will be seen as a strong performance. Early testing suggests that the A23-based chassis is seriously lacking in pace compared to more modern rivals, running about three seconds a lap down on the next-slowest car on the track.
That said, Sato's qualities as a driver and a racer frequently impressed during his time at BAR. His pace was often outstanding, although errors of judgement and some unfortunate racing incidents marred his reputation for consistency. Ide is virtually unknown outside of Japan, although his extensive racing experience - predominantly in Formula Nippon and the Japan Super GT series - means that he is regarded by the team as a safe pair of hands.
The team's prospects will only really become clear once the 2006 car they have developed makes its debut. However, their Honda V8 is likely to be among the more powerful engines at the back of the grid, meaning that non-last-place finishes may yet become a reasonable, and achievable, objective.

Traffic stop etiquette: You decide to pull me over on a freeway ramp or other sharp curve. Having spent time working parking my ambulance on the side of freeways to work scenes, I realize that anyplace on a freeway is dangerous, but curves and places with small shoulders even more so. Curves give oncoming idiots, err I mean "drivers" less time to react from the time they see you.
So the question: I would want to keep driving (maybe slowed down so as not to appear like I'm evading or ignoring) until I'm somewhere more visible from longer distances (and/or to a place with a bigger shoulder so I can pull way over for your safety). Are you, the cop, going to be
a) even a little grateful that I thought of you
b) indifferent
c) annoyed that I drove for 1/2 a mile instead of stopping right away
I wouldn't expect special treatment or anything, but I don't want to tick you off either.
OTOH, I haven't been pulled over in a lot of years so maybe it doesn't matter.


text: OK I have a 98 ls1 and I am converting over to a carb I did away with the factory computer. The wires I am trying to trace are a yellow/black and the tach wire which I assume is white but there are three of them that come into the motor compartment. So if some one has a pin lay out of these plugs that are in the passenger side kick panel.That would help out alot thanks again.


text: Reigned from 14 February 1130 to 23 September 1143. Born at Rome, Italy as Gregorio Papareschi; died there. Before his election he was a cardinal-deacon and with Lambert, Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia, helped draw up the Concordat of Worms, 1122. His election was opposed by the anti-pope Pietro Pierleone who seized Rome. Innocent went to France where he received the support of Louis VI. His election was ratified at a synod at Würzburg, 1131, and in the same year he crowned King Lothair and Queen Richenza at Liege; opened the synod at Rheims; and crowned Prince Louis of France. He declared, 1134, that Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Greenland should remain under the jurisdiction of the Archbishop of Hamburg. Emperor Lothair escorted him to Rome, 1138; Pierleone died and was succeeded by the antipope Gregorio Conti who submitted within two months. Innocent summoned the Tenth Æcumenical Council, 1139, to remove the consequences of the schism; and acted as mediator in a controversy between Alfonso of Spain and Alfonso Henrique of Portugal.New Catholic Dictionary

What are the Republican Party's principles that will be employed to meet and surmount these challenges? We have five enduring principles:
1. Our liberty is from God not the government.
2. Our sovereignty rests in our souls not the soil.
3. Our security is through strength not surrender.
4. Our prosperity is from the private sector not the public sector.
5. Our truths are self-evident not relative.

What Do Republicans Believe? TSP*
11 comments:
"Our liberty is from God not the government."
God doesn't run the country, Elected officials do.
"Our sovereignty rests in our souls not the soil."
Feelgood fluff. You still need to follow the laws of the soil, or land.
"Our security is through strength not surrender."
Just remember, might doesn't always mean "right"
"Our prosperity is from the private sector not the public sector."
Because the Private Sector failed to be honorable, ethical and lawful, the public sector will now regulate and oversee everything the private sector does.
"Our truths are self-evident not relative."
Your entitled to your opinion, but you aren't entitled to your own "truth". And just remember, your Republican "truth" isn't the "truth" of the majority of Americans, nor the rest of the World.The Power of the Individual not the Group (Union) (GOVERNMENT)
PRIVATE SECTOR?? Yes but Small business not big Business. Big Business sold out to (groups) Unions Years ago Except Wal-Mart).
Hang in there Wal-Mart.
Republicans want every one to succeed (EVEN YOU ABEL) not just a few groups.
Republicans are for All kinds of Energy not just Limited to Wind & Solar.
REPUBLICANS SHOULD BE FOR THE CAR not the Bicyle and UNIONIZED Trains for Tranportation.
TO BE CONTINUEDAbel said,
"God doesn't run the country, Elected officials do."
Ah yes, and the latest elected officials are doing such a great job!! The selection process is going, so well! Oops, too bad those Democrat appointees don't seem to pay their taxes?! What's up with that??
Abel further suggested,
"Because the Private Sector failed to be honorable, ethical and lawful, the public sector will now regulate and oversee everything the private sector does."
Yes, and the O-man is so honorable,
Obama said,
"The statements that Rev. Wright made that are the cause of this controversy were not statements I personally heard him preach while I sat in the pews of Trinity or heard him utter in private conversation."
Barrack Obama - Huffington Post 3/14/2008
"Did I know him to be an occasionally fierce critic of American domestic and foreign policy? Of course. Did I ever hear him make remarks that could be considered controversial while I sat in church? Yes."
MSNBC text of Obama speech 3/18/2008
Huh, statements but four days apart and 180 degrees in opposition to one another? What's up with that?
And perhaps, Abel, you can also comment on the Obama's prohibition against lobbyists in his Administration, while your at it. Certainly this seemed to demonstrate a refreshingly new perspective on the part of Obama.
The O-man said of lobbyists in November 2007, while campaigning for the Democratic presidential nomination, "I don't take a dime of their money," he said, "and when I am president, they won't find a job in my White House."
And how is that going? Oh sorry!! Darn missed on that one!! The number of lobbyists appointed to the administration is now running at 20+ and growing! What's up with that?
Well, so let's just try the prohibition against earmarks. Veto of the proposed budget anyone?? Oh sorry, no change here. Darn missed on that one too!!
Change, you can count on?????????
Yeah, trillions and counting!!Abel, Abel, Abel.
""Our liberty is from God not the government."
"God doesn't run the country, Elected officials do"
You are mixing up Running a Country with the concept of Liberty.
Liberty is the freedom of a person to manage their lives themselves and to enjoy the blessing that they have that power. It is NOTHING about running the Government.
Read the pre-amble to the Constitution. Then read the rest of the document and it explains HOW the government is supposed to function.
You are so entrenched in agreeing with the supreme court decision of seperation of church and state that you speak before you think.We need not look much further than Maxine Waters, Democrat, Los Angeles, who railed against bank Executives last month, yet personally lobbied for $12 Million in TARP funds to a small bank she held a personal interest in, to see just who is "dirty" in government.
ReplyDeleteGod doesn't run the country, Elected officials do.
True... God doesn't run the government but the principle conveyed is that liberty isn't for the government to take away because it doesn't come from the government in the first place.
Feelgood fluff. You still need to follow the laws of the soil, or land.
True but control over your own life and the choices you make (within the bounds of the law) are not for the government to limit. Penalizing someone for being wealthy or buying the "wrong" kind of car is simply immoral.
Just remember, might doesn't always mean "right"
"A nation, despicable by its weakness, forfeits even the privilage of being neutral." - Alexander Hamilton.
"Diplomacy without power is feeble, and power without diplomacy is destructive and blind." - Hans J. Morgenthau.
"We must consider first and last the American national interest. If we do not, if we construct our foreign policy on some kind of abstract theory of our rights and duties, we shall build castles in the air. We shall formulate policies which in fact the nation will not support with its blood, its sweat, and its tears." - Walter Lippmann.
The point of the above is that there is a fine balance between negotiation and force; tilting it too far either way is foolish. It seems, overall, that the Republican Party is too quick to use force and the Democrat Party is entranced by negotiation. What reason would any country have to take America seriously if we did nothing but talk? That is the point of the thrid principle.
Because the private sector failed to be honorable, ethical and lawful, the public sector will now regulate and oversee everything the private sector does.
So who do we go to when the public sector is corrupt, wasteful, and irresponsible? The private sector creates prosperity while the public sector feeds upon it. It's sad that anyone would hold illusions to the contrary and even sadder when someone holds up the notoriously bloated leviathan as a moral examplar.
"Your entitled to your opinion, but you aren't entitled to your own "truth". And just remember, your Republican "truth" isn't the "truth" of the majority of Americans, nor the rest of the world."
And... you successfully repeated, in a mocking form, exactly what the man just said. The truth is that government is reckless with our money and bloated with corruption. The truth is that social security is a pile of unpaid bills. The truth is that welfare does not reduce poverty. The truth is that you can't revive an economy by dragging it into debt. The truth is that the Constitution is silent about most of the things that are declared "rights". The truth is that no war has been legal since World War 2. The truth is that a minority does not have the power to abolish the majority's rights or vice versa. The truth is that embryonic stem cells are scientificially and medically meritless. The truth is that bad laws are passed by earmark bribery... and neither party's hands are clean. The truth is that there has yet to be a single factually valid instance of human rights abusesin Guantanamo Bay. And beyond these, there are many more truths that only apply if they jive with a partisan's viewpoint. Truth is not relative but self-evident and frankly, the world's "truth" is primarily their private fantasies.Things the public sector does, which enable prosperity:
1) Education. This may be the reason the US became a power when it did. Yet as we get richer and richer, we seem to be less and less willing to fund this.
How much of our increased wealth has been used to improve the quality of or access to Education.
Why do we not have more teachers and smaller classes?
2) Defense/Security
Without this, where would we now be.
Services such as port security, highway security, police and more allow for the private sector to be prosperous.
Do we now have companies which benefit from these services, and don't pay their fair share for them?
3) Infrastructure.
We all pay for this.
(Well most of us, some companies are given huge tax breaks, and get this for free, or at less then it costs to serve them).The right-wing is marvelous at sloganeering. "Arbeit Macht Frei" was one of your big hits, but these examples are just eyewash -- a transparently feeble, right-wing stab at corralling liberal and progressives into arguing against god and country. But, of course, it will rouse the rabble.
"Our liberty is from God not the government."
This couldn't have been said better by the Taliban -- Welcome to the Theocracy.
Of course, it's the right-wing's God, or more accurately, it's their fundamentalist interpretation of "god" that provides them with their "liberty," Unfortunately, if you happen to be a deist (sorry, Jefferson) suggest a differing version of god (ditto, Rep. Keith Ellison) -- or (heaven forbid) suggest no god at all, well too bad. "Liberty" only goes so far (and righties will tell you just how far that is, thank you very much).
"Our sovereignty rests in our souls not the soil."
A stupid, nonsensical, and meaningless statement. I guess that means that private ownership of land is of no consequence to our sovereignty, eh, Commie?
"Our security is through strength not surrender."
Two words: False Dilemma
"Our prosperity is from the private sector not the public sector."
Unless you're a defense contractor.
"Our truths are self-evident not relative."
Ummm -- "Self-evident": "requiring no proof; not needing to be demonstrated or explained." Okay, since your truths require no proof or need not be demonstrated or explained, we expect you to shut the hell up about them.1) Education is provided by the public sector to our general detriment. This isn't a bragging point for public sector control, yanno.
2) I would hope that the "public sector" does this since the government is directly commanded to in the Constitution.
3) Another governmental function (although in earlier days, the most efficiently-run and efficiently-laid rails were done by private interests).

My mother and I threw a dinner party together recently. Mom had been out foraging mushrooms for a tart and shopping for wine while I rolled and filled ravioli, and the two of us spent a good amount of time extracting the seeds from a pomegranate for our salad (do you know a better method than we do?…). Gathered with our friends around the table at my parents' farm house, we ate and warmed the chilly November evening with reminiscing and levity. Later it took three of us to get a torch burning to finish the creme brulees (worth it! They were awesome), and we finished the night with a pot of my mom's thick-as-tar decaf coffee. Everything was wonderful, but my favorite part of the night, aside from the company, was absolutely these carrots.
My mom has carrots growing in her garden but upon digging them up, thought they might not be pretty enough for our dinner party. I'm so glad that we served them anyway since I think they were easily the star of our meal.
These caramelized beauties are going to look wonderful on our Thanksgiving table this year, and on many other occasions to come, since they are so colorful and delicious I can't resist repeats! They are fragrant with pepper and warming star anise, a spice wonderful in sweet or savory dishes such as pho or chai tea — these carrots are a bit of both sweet and savory themselves. Fresh rosemary infuses the dish with the taste of the holidays, at least to me, as I often lace the turkeys I serve this time of year with rosemary. Honey, brown sugar and cider vinegar dance and bubble their way to an amber, sticky-caramel glaze with the orange spears in the oven. My mom and I were new to this dish at the dinner party, and kept eyeing each other as the wonderful aromas were coming from the kitchen. It surprised us with its complexity of flavors and tender, toasty-brown carrots, while being so simple to pull off. A happy surprise! We've both been repeating this dish since.
I have to thank our friend Damon, produce manager for our local line of fresh markets, for setting me up with these pretties since I don't have a garden in which to grow my own. Hop over to your favorite produce department and try these yourself — even if you're someone who (ahem) might have used to say you didn't like cooked carrots as much as raw. These made a believer out of me. Enjoy!
Glazed carrots with whole spices and rosemary
from Martha Stewart's cookbook Meatless serves 6 as a side- 2 lbs slender carrots (halved lengthwise if thicker)
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider or red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 1 – 2 star anise
- Coarse salt
Preheat oven to 375F.
Peel carrots and trim, leaving an inch or two of green tops intact. Fill a large bowl with ice water and bring a large pot of water to a boil. Blanch carrots for 3 -4 minutes in boiling water, until crisp-tender and bright in color. Immediately transfer to ice water to halt cooking. Drain.
Whisk together brown sugar, vinegar, honey and peppercorns. Over medium-high heat, heat oil or butter in a large, oven-proof skillet. Add carrots, rosemary sprigs and star anise and fry for 5 minutes before stirring in honey mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring carrots to coat well.
Transfer skillet to oven. Roast until carrots are glazed and caramelized, 20 – 25 minutes, turning carrots once or twice. Serve drizzled with glaze.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted today released the 2011 Adjusted Campaign Contribution Limits for the State of Ohio which take effect February 25, 2011.
"With new contribution limits in place, it's important to make candidates, voters and all participants in the system aware of the change to encourage adherence to the law and the kind of campaign finance transparency needed for a successful democracy," said Secretary Husted.
In accordance with R.C. 3517.104, campaign contribution limits are adjusted for inflation in each odd numbered year by the Ohio Secretary of State's office. Adjustments are based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for All Urban Consumers and certified by the Auditor of State.
Per the statutory formula, current contribution limits were multiplied by the one and three-tenths percent (1.3%) increase in the Consumer Price Index from 2008 to 2010 and the product was then added to the existing contribution limits. The limits will remain in effect until February of 2013, when the next adjustment is scheduled. The numbers are no longer rounded due to changes made in House Bill 1 of the 126th General Assembly, Special Session.
The 2011 Adjusted Campaign Contribution Limits report is available in PDF. This report contains a detailed explanation of the procedures used in adjusting the contribution limits, a breakdown of all campaign contribution limits, and a reference chart containing the adjusted contribution limits.

Second quarter: Oregon 20, Stanford 17 Cardinal scores a touchdown on the first play of the quarter
Posted by Rob Moseley
Tavita Pritchard throws a five-yard scoring pass to fullback Josh Catron, and the point after by Aaron Zagory makes it 17-10 with 14:57 to go.
Walter Thurmond III returns the kickoff to the 40 and then fumbles, with Stanford recovering there. The Cardinal get down to third-and-one from the UO 8-yard line and Anthony Kimble runs for no gain. Spencer Paysinger and Ra'Shon Harris make the play; those two plus Casey Matthews seem to be playing pretty well in the early going. The Cardinal set up for a 25-yard field goal and fake it, with holder Bo McNally taking the snap and running up the middle for the score. Zagory's PAT tied it at 17-17 with 11:08 left.
The Ducks failed to score for the first time today. Jeremiah Masoli started the drive with two completions, but he underthrew Malachi Lewis later, and tucked and ran on third-and-18 from the UO 49, drawing some boos. A holding penalty didn't help their chances. Stanford took over and had no better luck, punting it back to Oregon.
Toby Gerhart still isn't playing. He may have hurt himself slightly in the first quarter, though he looks OK standing on the sideline.
Oregon goes back ahead with a field goal. The Ducks kept it on the ground to get to the Stanford 24-yard line, where, on third-and-6, Masoli completed a 10-yard pass to H-back Matt Larkin. His presence in the game makes me wonder if Ed Dickson might be dinged up or something. Three plays later, on third-and-four from the 8, Masoli has a clear path to the end zone but elects to throw to Drew Davis, who bobbles it and is hit by a defender. Morgan Flint comes in and makes a 26-yard field goal with 55 seconds left.
Stanford went three-and-out, hurting itself with a holding penalty. Oregon called a couple timeouts, but the Cardinal got a good punt off, so the Ducks just took a knee to end the half.
The Register-Guard doesn't necessarily condone the comments here, nor does it review every post.

WOOD VILLAGE, Ore. — The campaign in support of two casino related ballot measures is no longer active. Tuesday afternoon, supporters of Measure 82 and 83 announced that they will no longer run paid advertisements related to the effort to allow private casino's in the state of Oregon.
Measure 82 would have amended the state constitution, authorizing establishment of privately-owned casinos. Measure 83 would have established the first private casino in the state at Wood Village, near Portland.
A statement by proponents said they, "knew it would be a challenge to break the existing political and gaming monopoly in Oregon". That may be in response, at least in part, to Oregon's current governor and three previous governors speaking out against the measures. Local state representatives said they also opposed the measures.
"If you get one going, then people are going to say, why not two, then why not three and four and so on and so forth. So I think it would just be an opening of the door to proceed on, and I don't think that's healthy for our state," said Representative Sal Esquivel (R) – District 6.
Stacy Dycus, the campaign manager for Yes on 82 and 83, sent out a press release Tuesday afternoon, which stated: "Despite this, we continue to strongly believe a tax-paying casino would benefit Oregon's economy and schools, which are both in great need."
Opponents of The Grange voiced their opinions as well. The organization against Measures 82 and 83, called "Still A Bad Idea", said they will continue to run ads opposing the ballot measures; that's because voters can still vote in favor of the ballot measures in the November 6 election.
Cynara Lilly, Spokesperson for "Still A Bad Idea", also released a statement on Yes on 82 and 83's campaign halt:
"It's clear that the proponent's misleading ads attempting convince voters to fundamentally alter how gambling is managed in Oregon have not connected with voters – despite having spent more than $6 million dollars on a glitzy ad campaign," Lilly wrote. "Measures 82 and 83 are a crass attempt to change Oregon's gambling system from being based on public good to being based on corporate profit […] If passed, these measures would break and agreement with Oregon's Indian tribes, damage the state's economy and irrevocably change the culture of Oregon."
NewsWatch12 will have more on this story at 5 p.m.

Tool review: Sanding Discs
- • The best abrasives start fast, then last and last
- • These discs deserve your dollars
These discs deserve your dollars
Klingspor's Stearate discs, with the most aggressive and durable abrasives in the test and the lowest cost per disc, proved the perfect storm of material removal. But several other discs finished finer. So, for our money, we'd use Klingspor Stearate for initial sanding and then switch to one of the disc brands that left no visible scratches at 180 grit: Bosch, Gator Power, Makita, Mirka Abranet, or Norton 3X or MultiAir.
If you want to stick with one brand, Makita, Mirka Abranet, and Norton 3X do the job admirably from start to finish, but cost about twice as much per gram removed as Klingspor Stearate.
For this article, we reviewed 3M Sandblaster, Ace Hardware Hook and Loop, Bosch Standard, Craftsman Standard and Professional, Gator Power and Gator Ultra Power, Klingspor Stearate and Heavyweight, Makita Hook and Loop, Mirka Abranet and Gold, Norton 3X and MultiAir, and Porter-Cable EXP sanding discs.

During the middle ages and after, children were often regarded as miniature adults. Many times, they were dressed in small versions of adult fashion clothing. The different versions of the man's jerkin was popular for many centuries.
I'm sure in many villages, you could see young boys dressed in a copy-cat version of the military jerkin. They must have looked cute running around in their well-tailored leather jerkins, perhaps playing a game of war.

Re: Need recommendation for Alameda preschool
My son has been at Garner for 3 years. He adores the school, as do we. It is a
nice mix of play with structure. Every child I have seen come out of the school
has been incredibly prepared (socially and academically) for kindergarten.
All of my son's teachers have been wonderful, caring people with a strong
interest in his academic development. The classes are separated by age, which
really lets the teachers focus on a particular age group's developmental needs.
I love the fact that Garner offers so many elective courses like gymnastics,
computers and dancing.
My only complaint about the school is the cost. It's certainly not cheap. But,
I would definitely say that it's worth the money.
Happy Garner Family
We're just moving to Alameda and are looking at preschools. Based on BPN and savvysource recs, we have looked at quite a number on Alameda, many of which we liked. I have a question about Bright Horizons at Garner, on Bay Farm Island. My one concern is how far away and in the middle of nowhere it seems. Also that it's predominantly Bay Farm families who attend (the director said about 70% ), and, as residents of the East End of Alameda, would it be hard to build a community? We are just moving to Alameda, so we don't know a lot of families with kids our daughter's age yet. It would be nice if she was transitioning with some other people once it comes time for kindgergarten. Thanks for your thoughts. michelle
Re: Preschools in the Oak/Alameda/San Leandro Area
You should check out Garner Learning Center (owned by Bright
Horizons) in Alameda. It's in Bay Farm, close to the ferry
My children go there and we love it! Outstanding, warm
teachers and lots of enrichment activities. It's very much
worth a tour of the place since it's hard to get a feel just
from their website.
happy Garner mom
Re: Preschools for almost 2-year-old in Alameda
We also live in the east end of Alameda, and wanted a play-based, with some
structure, preschool. We ended up choosing Bright Horizons at Garner Learning
Center. http://centers.brighthorizons.com/garner/ The website doesn't really
give you much of a sense about the place, so I would recommend a tour. The
school gets excellent reviews on savvysource.com
They accept non-potty trained 2-yr-olds. In fact, they are 100% responsible for
the success of my son's potty training! The teachers are wonderful people and
my son loves the place. We've been there a few years now and plan on sending
our younger children there as well.
Alameda Mom
Re: Looking for Bridge K programs in the East Bay
We live in Alameda and send our son to Bright Horizons at Garner
Learning Center.
We absolutely love it there - the faculty and the facilities are
wonderful. They have a bridge-K program as well as a private
kindergarten. Depending on your child and their skill set, I'm
sure that one of them would be a great fit prior to public
Another Mom of a Fall Birthday Boy
Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has any recent experience with the Pre-K/Jr K classes and their teachers at Garner Bright Horizons in Alameda? I'm looking for a nurturing and warm environment for my 4.5 year old boy that's a bit shy and takes a long time to warm up to new people and situations. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. -anon
Dear Parents, I'm looking for preschool for my son. He will be 2 in Sept. Are you sending your child to Bright Horizon at Garner Learning Center or Peter Pans at Bay Farm Alameda, or have you visted these two schools? Please give me some advice about them.
The atmosphere is fun and the kids quickly get engaged in cool science projects, learning games, hands-on toys, etc. There is enough structure to help kids feel secure, but enough flexibility to let them be silly and have fun while learning. I really like the program and the school makes sure that parents are kept up-to-date on things the kids are doing every day. I especially like that they keep a memory binder of all your child's artwork and other memorables for you.
It is important to meet your child's teacher before making a decision! We lucked out, because my son's teacher knew about my son's not-so-great experience with the other school and has gone out of her way to help him. I know I can approach her with any concerns or questions. We have worked together on helping my son with typical childhood challenges. He really has thrived and come a long way. Also, he greets his teacher hello everyday and gives her a hug when he leaves. He even tells me time to time that he loves his teachers(a HUGE accomplishment for us)!
There is teacher turnover at Garner, as with many schools. Sometimes you have great teachers, and sometimes not. Be sure to see who would be the head teacher and assistant in your child's class before you sign up. The administrators are awesome, on-the-ball and super-friendly. Ms. Kahlauna, the school director, always addresses your concerns head on and in a timely manner.
I know that picking a preschool/pre-k school can be challenging.Go with what feels good to you. Good luck! Garner Mom in Alameda

KJ-52 sees changes in hip-hop acceptance
Posted By Liz Somers On April 21, 2010 @ 2:35 pm In Uncategorized | No Comments
KJ-52 [1] attended his first Dove Awards [2] by sneaking in backstage as a part of the press. Back then he says the category was rap-hip-hop-dance and that hip-hop never won. Now it's a viable category.
"How cool is it that I'm sharing the stage with Billy Graham [3], Sarah Palin [4]….," he said. "The church and industry now recognizes it as a viable ministry. How cool is that."
