NEW YORK, Nov. 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Fixed mortgage rates were mostly lower, although the benchmark 30-year fixed mortgage rate held at 3.57 percent, according to Bankrate.com's weekly national survey. The average 30-year fixed mortgage has an average of 0.4 discount and origination points.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20040122/FLTHLOGO)
To see mortgage rates in your area, go to http://www.bankrate.com/funnel/mortgages/
The average 15-year fixed mortgage rate inched lower to 2.88 percent and the larger jumbo 30-year mortgage set a new record low of 4.09 percent. Adjustable mortgage rates were mixed. The 3-year ARM moved higher to 2.82 percent, the popular 5-year ARM remained at 2.72 percent, and the 10-year ARM slipped to 3.18 percent.
Now that the presidential election is out of the way, attention turns to the looming fiscal cliff. Financial markets will become increasingly nervous with each passing day if substantive progress toward a resolution isn't made. These concerns could bring bond yields and mortgage rates still lower in the weeks ahead. Mortgage rates are closely related to yields on long-term government bonds.
The last time mortgage rates were above 6 percent was Nov. 2008. At the time, the average 30-year fixed rate was 6.33 percent, meaning a $200,000 loan would have carried a monthly payment of $1,241.86. With the average rate now 3.57 percent, the monthly payment for the same size loan would be $905.92, a difference of $336 per month for anyone refinancing now.
30-year fixed: 3.57% -- unchanged from last week (avg. points: 0.40)
15-year fixed: 2.88% -- down from 2.89% last week (avg. points: 0.32)
5/1 ARM: 2.72% -- unchanged from last week (avg. points: 0.38)
Bankrate's national weekly mortgage survey is conducted each Wednesday from data provided by the top 10 banks and thrifts in the top 10 markets.
For a full analysis of this week's move in mortgage rates, go to http://www.bankrate.com/mortgagerates
The survey is complemented by Bankrate's weekly Rate Trend Index, in which a panel of mortgage experts predicts which way the rates are headed over the next seven days. There is no clear consensus this week, with 47 percent predicting mortgage rates will fall and 40 percent expecting mortgage rates to hold steady in the next seven days. Just 13 percent forecast an increase in mortgage rates in the coming week.

Is it safe to do this with a carpet cleaner and your carpets?
mark40511March 7, 2011
I have a Hoover Agility that does a good job. I don't like to use the carpet shampoos to clean the carpets......There are no stains on the carpets at all but I just want to clean them every so often.......I have used white vinegar in the past with hot water.
I was thinking.......If I use the water take filled with hot tap water and maybe a teaspoon of bleach, will this be ok since the bleach will be so diluted? I'm thinking perhaps it will disinfect the carpets as well.
Another thing I do with the Agility, I tape 2 weights on the front of it as to put a little more weight down and the machine seems to extract more water that way.

ASUS have had a long history of producing motherboards. In the past ASUS's range of motherboards were known for their stability rather than overclockability but like so many other manufactures are listening to the market and have been doing motherboards that appeal to the overclockers without loosing the OEM market.
ASUS's first dive into the AMD K7 market was the introduction of their first Slot A board called the K7M. ASUS were one of the very few manufactures that produced an AMD Irongate (AMD 750) chipset. This board won numerous awards for ingenuity and stability. ASUS provided this board with a 1 AGP, 5 PCI, 1 ISA and 1 AMR layout. Even with the problems with the AMD 750 chipset with GeForce video cards, ASUS's K7M was one of the most stable and overclockable out of the AMD 750 range of boards.
With the eventual release of the VIA KX133 chipset ASUS went back to the drawing board and designed their next AMD K7 board. This new board provided a 1 AGP4x, 5PCI and 1 AMR layout. This board was named the K7V. With the release of the Slot A Thunderbirds, and the realization of the KX133 and AMD Tbird incompatibility ASUS took their K7V and added an extra layer to the isolation wall and increased the I/O voltage to accommodate the fast Slot A Tbirds, this board was labeled the K7V-T.
With the Socket A form CPU ASUS took a new approach with their Socket A based KT133 board, This board was called the A7V which we reviewed earlier. Now that the new KT133A chipset has arrived to the manufactures ASUS has put together a new board based on their success with the A7V, this new baby has been appropriately named the ASUS A7V133.

Hi guys,
I accidentally installed TF700 recovery on my TF300 (yes I know, I'm a tool), so as you expect, with it being made for a higher resolution screen, it only shows a small portion of the recovery screen on my TF300, so I can't flash any other recovery images or ROMs as I can't access the slide to flash function on TWRP. To top it off, the fastboot USB logo does not show up, just the RCK, Android and wipe data options.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Practice doesn't make perfect, it make permanent.
When I hear a Liberal say "I can speak for gun owners because I own a shotgun" I just want to scream "Well I can speak for vegetarians because I like lettuce on my cheeseburger!"
This was last weeks project, deer season is nearly over and it is time to start sticking a few swine
Buy the braided boot laces, put it around the call, slide the laces ends through each slit, slide it down to the call to keep it tight, put the laces ends together and clinch knot em
Yep. Make smaller ones to go one the big one w other leather loops and small pieces of boot lace. Key rings and boot laces, or any other thing you can find of the like will work as well.
Put key rings on the loop w strings hanging off from them. Just make sure your calls stay seperated so you don't get busted.

Eternal relief work
The United States went on full security alert this week, shutting down embassies around the world this past Sunday. Intercepted communications from terrorists indicated planned attacks on United States and other country targets. Some work furloughs will be extended even further, depending on the threat. It's prudent, of course, to limit the damage to people […]
Remember the thrill of school supplies?
When I think back on grade school, my mind is flooded with fond memories of new beginnings. A new school year with a new teacher brought about the idea of being surrounded my new classmates, new friends, and most notably, a slew of new school supplies. Sure meet-the-teacher was an exciting experience, but I most […]
Education: Girl gains confidence to teach other students
At age 14, Sophorn stands at the head of her classroom in Cambodia and teaches other children school subjects. She is a patient teacher, because she once struggled in school. Not long ago, Sophorn avoided getting an education. She had learning difficulties and a mindset inspired by the Khmer proverb: "Girls cannot go beyond the […]
Pastor Jihad loving his enemies from Syria
I recently returned from the Middle East, where Food for the Hungry (FH) is serving those fleeing the Syrian civil war.

Dental care gets child out of pain and back in school
I hadn't been to the dentist in two years. I finally made an appointment, but was really nervous about what issues might be discovered. Of course, I brushed my teeth regularly. But I often forgot to floss. Up until recently, I was a good dental patient who paid a biannual visit to get my teeth […]
Child sponsorship: Teen pursues higher education
In Bogra City, a bustling metropolis in Bangladesh, most of the population practices Islam.

In this walled community of narrow, dirty walkways – a boy name Chad is […]

Rebuilding Burundi One Person at a Time
In the early 1990s, a civil war broke out in Burundi, lasting 12 years. More than 200,000 people died and many fled to neighboring countries seeking refuge. The violence destroyed villages, schools, the economy—and now Burundi is rebuilding itself. It's a beautiful country with massive potential. However, the effects of war linger on with two-thirds […]

New England Revs looking to move past struggles, Lampard's NYCFC visit
Some intriguing Major League Soccer storylines to watch this weekend:
The New England Revolution aiming for first win of 2015
The opening weeks of the 2015 MLS season haven't been kind to the New England Revolution. Through three games the Revs have no wins, no goals, and plenty of frustration. Not exactly what was expected of last year's MLS Cup finalist.
Without question there are some clear reasons for New England's struggles. Last year's midfield catalyst, Jermaine Jones, has been sidelined...

We're halfway through the month, how's everyone doing? I like to do a little mid month analysis to see how I compare to other months. By scrutinizing my accounts each month and doing comparison to previous months and quarters I can see where I need to step up my game. Also, if I'm doing worse I know I need to hustle and find more clients. If I'm doing better, I can pat myself on a job well done. I also like to set goals.

How to handle grapefruit seedlings
My girlfriend gave me four grapefruit seeds she obtained from a grapefruit she ate. The mother plant was planted in the 1930's or even before and from what I know of its origins it is probably not a commercial hybrid. I managed to germinate all four seeds. I gave one of the seedlings to my mother-in-law when it was a year old and about 6 inches high. She managed to kill it. However, I still have the the other three growing in containers.
They are now two years old and about two feet tall. Last year one of them even flowered, but there was no fruit. My questions are:
1. At what point do I cut the tap root? I expect to keep these in containers for life.
2. Do they need to be topped or pinched or otherwise pruned? Even though they are growing well, they aren't really branching in any way. Will that happen later? Right now growth is strictly upright. One of them has a branch bear the base. The other two are single stems. The mother plant was well-branched in form.
3. Is there anything else I should know about growing citrus from seed in containers?
I dont believe removing the tap root is all that necessary. At least I have never seen anyone advocate for it to be done. I know bonsai growers encourage it to promote finer roots, but I dont see many people talk about it on larger container trees.
I have 3 year old lemon seedlings that branched on their own but pruning the top should encourage it to sprout lateral branches.
caring for seedlings, cuttings, and grafted trees in containers is all relatively the same. Provide them a good draining medium, give as much sun as you can, water when they dry out a bit, re-pot and root prune when required(every 1-3 years or so) and fertilize regularly with a good soluble fertilizer that either has the micro elements or provide them with another source. Thats pretty much the basics.

A dog who detects when his owner needs medical attention and licks her face has been nominated for a Crufts award.
Joy Devine, 54, of Stow Park Road in Marton, bought Aengus when she was diagnosed with a one-in-two million chance ear tumour.
Aengus, a three-year-old Labrador, is a unique dog as he is able to detect when Joy has an ear infection and needs medical attention. He licks the side of her face and that lets Joy know she needs to immediately phone her doctor and because of Aengus's great ability he has been nominated for the Kennel Club's Friends for Life competition.

vc in garden
I used vc in my garden this year my tomato's are growing big and great along with zuc they are getting real bushy can I trime back some of the brnchies so the can produce more blooms instead of growing big plant's
I also used VC in my garden this year and WOW are the plants healthy. I started 2 rows of pole beans- one with the seeds started in straight castings and the other without. Germination rate was nearly 100% in the VC and about 40% without! Also seeded lettuce, squash, potatoes, and carrots in castings very successfully. I also spread several inches of vc under the apple tree which I water in.No chemical factory fertilizer, just aerated casting tea fed with molasses , fish emulsion and kelp. I still cannot stop blackspot on my roses in this cool humid climate though.
Yeah, my tomatoes are doing so well it's almost becoming a problem. I'm in an apartment and got a garden plot the building runs, mine's the tallest by about a foot (was two feet but slowing down as it reaches six feet).
The coolest thing was one of the four I had really had a rough start, not sure what but think it picked some disease up. Anyway I gave it a super dose of VC around the plant and daily soaked it in for a while. Disease gone, and a mass of healthy branches firing off :)

View image How many movie references can you spot in this image from "5-25-77"?
Most of this is true. The rest is even truer. -- Opening disclaimer, "5-25-77"
"To everybody else, movies are something to do when you're tired of living real life. To you, real life is something to do when you're tired of watching movies." -- from Patrick Read Johnson's "5-25-77"
View image How about this one?
In James Bridges' "September 30, 1955" (1978), Richard Thomas (then best-known as John-Boy Walton on TV) played an Arkansas college student devastated by the death of his idol James Dean on the title date. In Patrick Read Johnson's "5-25-77," John Francis Daley (best-known as the great Sam Weir in "Freaks & Geeks") plays, basically, Patrick Read Johnson, who visited his idol Steven Spielberg on his spring break in 1977 (while Spielberg was finishing up "Close Encounters"). As the story goes, Johnson got to see an early screening of "Star Wars" (which opened on the title date 30 years ago) while there were still dogfight scenes from old WW II movies in place of the spaceships, and proclaimed himself the world's #1 "Star Wars" Fan. In his semi-autobiographical movie -- "from the producers of 'Star Wars' and 'American Graffiti'" (Fred Roos and Gary Kurtz) -- Johnson tells a version of his own story, about growing up in a small Midwestern town and trying to make it to a showing of "Star Wars" on the first day of its release. Teaser trailer here -- at least for the time being. (BTW, Anybody else remember with fondness the episode of "That '70s Show" in which Topher Grace and pals were smitten with "Star Wars" mania? It captured the now-bittersweet utopian euphoria the movie inspired at the time.)
And here?
Twitch had some sympathetic ruminations about "5-25-77" and the "Star Wars" phenomenon last year that I'd like to share with you on the 30th anniversary of that Portentous Day: I've learned the hard way that there is a basic generational gap involved with "Star Wars" fans. There is the current crop for whom the prequel trilogy was their first exposure, and then there are the rest of us.
While I'm not quite old enough to have seen "A New Hope" on its first run it is no exaggeration at all to say that "Star Wars" populated the landscape of my imagination like nothing else at least until I hit puberty. The "Star Wars" universe is where I lived out my childhood. [...]
No comment.
The current crop of "Star Wars" fans can't seem to understand why us older lot are so bothered by the over-digitization of our childhood dream-world. But Patrick Read Johnson does. And how. "5-25-77" is his loosely autobiographical film about the impact of "Star Wars" on his own life as a teenage geek in love with the movies. We linked to an early, very rough teaser a while back but we have just been sent the full length trailer and if the film comes anywhere close to living up to this Johnson has made one of the most loving odes to geekdom ever. It is simply fantastic.

The creatives at Zurich agency coUNDco certainly raised the bar when they asked us to capture the world's first 360º underwater diving video for Swiss brand Victorinox.
yellowBird love a good 360º challenge so the team travelled to the beautiful Swiss Alps to shoot in the tranquility and icy waters of lake Cauma to capture the intense freshness of Victorinox's new fragrance range.
Using a custom freediving underwater kit which allowed our operator to leap into the lake we captured a stunning 360º underwater experience and succeeded in creating the first digital ad campaign based on underwater 360º video.

Nations focus on terrorism in Sahara
ALGIERS, Algeria The countries of the Sahara - already dealing with armed militants and smugglers - are now confronted with an influx of fighters fleeing the Libyan war, Niger's foreign minister said Wednesday.
Mohamed Bazoum spoke during a two-day conference on terrorism in the Sahara that was originally expected to focus just on al-Qaida, but has now become inextricably tied up with the civil war in neighboring Libya.
Algeria complains that the instability next door has sent a flood of weapons into hands of militants and smugglers in the desert.
"The repercussion of the Libyan crisis on the Sahel region have become palpable, particularly with the arrival of large amounts of weapons and four-wheel drive vehicles and the return of armed individuals involved in the Libyan crisis," said Bazoum.
Moammar Gadhafi, who is now on the run, once supplemented his forces with large numbers of mercenaries and tribesmen from sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Tuaregs, who make up unruly slice of the populations of neighboring Niger and Mali.
Many of these have fled Libya with the victory of Libyan revolutionaries, sending an influx of hardened fighters into the impoverished desert communities around the border that don't have the means to absorb the new arrivals.
There have also been several convoys of armed men crossing into Niger from Libya, confirmed Bazoum, though he denied any contained Gadhafi or his family.
The minister called for a higher profile joint military presence from Algeria, Mali, Niger and Mauritania to patrol the vast wastes of the Sahara that are now the stomping grounds for heavily armed smugglers as well as the North African franchise of al-Qaida.
"The presence of these people in Niger creates serious security problems," Bazoum added.
The security situation across the vast desert and the presence of an al-Qaida franchise with an active kidnapping operation has concerned other countries as well, and high-level delegations from France and the U.S., including the head of the U.S. African command, Gen. Carter Ham, were also attending.
"Although there is no precise quantitative on the movement of weapons in the Sahel region stemming from the Libyan crisis, it is still an issue of concern," said Andre Parant, a special advisor to the French president attending the conference.
Workshops were being held ranging from fighting terrorism and organized crime to implementing local development projects.
"This is an important meeting and the first of its kind and we hope it will develop synergies and cooperation around a core of four countries, Niger, Mali, Mauritania and Algeria," Algerian Foreign Minister Mourad Medelci said at the start of the conference.
He hoped the countries at the conference would share intelligence and work together to develop the impoverished desert region.
Algeria is also in an awkward position regarding the new rulers of Libya, since it was a close ally of Gadhafi's regime and has given refuge to members of his family. On Aug. 29, a convoy including Gadhafi's wife, daughter and two of his sons crossed the border into Algeria and they are now believed to be residing in the capital of Algiers.

Harwood Community:
Regional Network Selects 20 New England Schools to Participate in New Personalized Learning Initiative:
Harwood Union is one of twenty schools in the League of Innovative Schools that have been selected by the New England Secondary School Consortium and the Great Schools Partnership to participate in the Personalized Learning Initiative grant. After a lengthy application process that included attending a summer design institute, a comprehensive site visit, and two detailed submissions that outlined our current work along with our plan to address the distinct learning needs, interests, and aspirations of all students, we received notification of selection. The initiative's goal is to help the selected schools remodel their academic programs to ensure that every graduate is prepared to succeed in postsecondary education, modern workplaces, and adult life.
For the next two years, the Great Schools Partnership will provide Harwood Union with a team of school-improvement specialists—commonly called "school coaches" in the education community—who will help the Harwood Leadership Team, teachers and staff implement our plan. Our plan includes how Harwood will successfully implement the components of ACT 77 – the Flexible Pathways Initiative and Vermont's new Education Quality Standards for Proficiency-based Graduation. Additionally, it includes the areas of community engagement and policy development.

Is your family passionate about soccer and willing to share your home with a great young man from Spain next school year??? Esteban is a 15 year old from Spain with a passion for soccer. He is a keeper who reports that he has been playing professionally since he was 7. He parents also report that he has had much success playing soccer and currently plays for an important club team. Soccer is very important to him, but he does love many sports. He is also an excellent student with a 4.0 GPA and very solid English skills. Esteban is a bit frightened of animals and would be best in a home without pets or one with pets that are very gentle. If you are a family who can support his soccer passion and are willing to provide him with a supportive and loving home please be in touch. Esteban is scheduled to arrive in the US in August and stay until June. Thank you. Susan Kuegel, Local Coordinator, CIEE email@example.com or 279-2158

Student Notices
HUHS Parking Reminder:
Senior and Junior students who have completed the parking information sheet, been approved for parking, and have a parking permit are the ONLY students eligible to park in the HUHS AND Dowsville Road parking areas.
We have a limited number of parking spaces available and it is appreciated if all respect these guidelines. Students who obtain their license during the school year, and have a vehicle available to use, MUST speak with Nancy Myrto or Seth Marineau for parking availability before driving to school.
Sophomores SHOULD NOT drive to school and utilize either the HUHS or Dowsville Road parking areas AT ANY TIME as parking is a senior and junior student privilege ONLY. Sophomores caught parking in these areas will be given a warning and, if persist in driving and parking at school, may forfeit their ability to park during their junior and senior years. We understand having a student drive to school lessens the burden on parents/guardians, but due to limited parking there must be a definitive cut-off point. Sophomore students have also been granted a parking privilege for a day if there are extenuating circumstances. These exceptions need to be approved with Seth Marineau or Nancy Myrto prior to the day needed. Seniors and juniors have waited their turn for this privilege and we ask sophomores to respectfully wait theirs. We thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

International Gymnastics Federation:
Three years ago, the South African Department of Sport and Recreation joined forces with the National Department of Education and nearly a dozen South African Sports Federations to introduce a sports curriculum into South Africa's schools. …
"The structured approach to school sport was to redress the effects of 20 years with little or in most case no physical education in our schools," explains Caron Henry, who manages Gym for All and Schools programmes for the South African Gymnastics Federation (SAGF). …

Which sports?
The Health Outcomes and Physical activity in Preschoolers (HOPP) Study at McMaster University (Canada) asked parents of 3- to 5-year-olds about sport participation.
87% of parents reported participation in organized activities in the last month and 90% in the last year. The sports most often reported were: swimming (79%), soccer (48%), gymnastics (40%), dance (30%), ice hockey (21%), and T-ball (9%). …
SWIM – swimming (79%)
RUN – soccer (48%)
GYM – gymnastics (40%)
Gymnastics and Trampoline are as important as running and swimming for very young children. We teach Motor and Physical Fitness better than any other sport.
What can parents do?
Be a positive sports role model!
Emphasize the fun of sports!
Don't focus on the rules, keeping score or competition in the early years.
Be sure the sports program and equipment are safe and age-appropriate.
Be supportive of your child's coach and teammates.
Scientific American:
Kids should exercise at least one hour a day, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But in the U.S., less than half of six- to 11-year-olds and only 8 percent of 12- to 19-year-olds meet that target. …
Over in Denmark, a longitudinal study of how schoolchildren move through urban environments provided an opportunity to find out by outfitting hundreds of students with accelerometers and GPS trackers during their waking hours. …
The researchers found that children were significantly more active when playing on grassy areas and at sites featuring playground equipment. …
… in all five areas studied, girls spent more time being sedentary than boys. …

Starting out at the age of seven, Beth went on to become an Olympic Bronze Medalist, triple World Champion, six-time European Champion, Commonwealth Champion and seven-times consecutive National Champion, cementing her place as Britain's greatest ever-female gymnast.
Although memories of Beth taking the Bronze in the Uneven Bars at London 2012 – the culmination of an incredible career – will not be forgotten anytime soon, sharing a fierce passion for gymnastics with future generations has become her new focus.
So how can parents encourage their kids to exercise?
By making it fun for the child and getting involved themselves. If they feel involved and interested, I think they are more likely to encourage their children to keep going with it or try something new. …
What's more important for kids starting out in sport, fun or desire?

Some good ideas from Tumbl Talk. :-)
A winter indoors tends to limit children's gross motor play, which is SO very crucial to their overall development. Here are some creative and budget-friendly ways to bring the playground indoors this winter season. …
Physical literacy is what kids have when they acquire the essential motor competencies and movement skills to do lots of different sports and physical activities. Kids aren't just born with it. They develop it over time just like reading and writing. And with competency comes the confidence to move more. …
To develop physical literacy, our kids need lots of opportunities to play active games and learn movement skills. They need regular unstructured play when they are small, and they need increasingly structured activities as they get older …
It doesn't matter whether or not our kids choose to chase an Olympic dream. That's a decision for them to make. But we should be delighted if they grow comfortable enough in their bodies to stay active, happy, and healthy throughout their lives. …
The one crucial thing missing from your kid's education: physical literacy

Cork over 'wonderboard' or do you need additional underlayment?
Hello all.
After agonizing over kitchen, breakfast, sitting room flooring, Im still leaning towards cork. I have a bad back and hip joint issues. My MIL put tile in her kitchen a few years back (vinyl before) and she always complains that her knees and back are killing her. I think its the tile, she thinks its age. My concern is, for all the researching that I have done, it appears as though glue-on cork tile do not need special underlayment. Is this true? I have ordered samples from AmCork and have subjected those samples to my cooking habits including immersing it in water for an extended time. I am happy with the way they have held up. But they seem flimsy and not very durable to walk/stand on. Hence my question regarding further underlayment. I dont want to feel like Im walking on mattress, but I cant afford to have the aches and pains with 3 little ones to chase after.
Thanks for your help!!
What is the wonderboard installed over...and why did you choose that as an underlayment?
As far as installation of the cork is concerned...whatever the manufacturer recommends regarding substrate is what you want to use. Also, there are no substitutes regarding adhesive. Most manufacturers recommend contact adhesive for the tile installation. You cannot substitute another adhesive for the one the manufacturer says you have to use.
Good luck

Will and Thunder Welcomes Crimson Storm
in Rock Music
Crimson Storm is more than just a band. It is a family, a message, a light shining into the darkness. It is a living, breathing entity...
In a time, a couple of decades ago when musicians were masters of their weapons. Frontmen had serious force and range. Drummers had huge power and charisma. Guitarists were composing and playing the most impressive, virtuoso, monster guitar riffs and leads the world had ever seen. Bassists shined as stars, and loud as thunder in the stormy sky. Not one had a lazy station. It wasn't considered to be an option. Songs had depth, passion and heart. Those days are alive again!!!
Crimson Storm began with a vision when founder lead singer Paul Ames was just 18 years old. Crimson Storm had to survive with him through 20 years of hell to get where it is today, its not only a miracle Crimson Storm is a decade long series of miracles. The first song was written in 1995 in a very dark place. In 2000, Paul formed the first incarnation of Crimson Storm. With huge bands he grew up admiring: Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Metallica and Stryper. The guys that end up on the bus are not always the same guys that started in the garage.
There is a storm coming. Can you feel it? Can you hear the sound of thunder in the distance? The sound of the rain beginning to fall. The rain is as red as blood!
Liberty Storm with Shane Krauser Inaugural Program (8.25.14)
Shane Krauser and his co-hosts, Donnie and Chappy, take the nation by storm with their inaugural program on Blog Talk. They talk about the following issues:
1. What does the freedom narrative sound like? What does the left do to ostracize the small government camp and how can we counter those tactics? Our agenda is that we want to be left alone, while the left wants more control. Listen to this lively conversation about how we can dominate cultural and political institutions.
2. The Ferguson, Missouri saga continues with the shooting of Michael Brown. Why has race been invoked? Why aren't we concerned about justice? What is the truth anyways?
3. Michelle Obama is getting grief because her healthy school lunch movement has resulted in the outlaw of a public school's "pink cookie" in Ohio. What is the federal government doing meddling in what has been traditionally state and local issues? Where does the federal government get its authority to establish something like the U.S. Department of Agriculture?
