The 1-Drop Rule Continues To Be Dropped
(Ivanhoe Newswire) "" What ethnic group do most people consider President Barack Obama, Tiger Woods and Halle Berry to fall under? The centuries-old "one-drop rule" assigning minority status to mixed-race individuals appears to live on in our modern-day perception. So say Harvard University psychologists, who've established that we still tend to see biracials not as equal members of both parent groups, but as belonging more to their minority parent group.
"Many commentators have argued that the election of Barack Obama, and the increasing number of mixed-race people more broadly, will lead to a fundamental change in American race relations," which lead author Arnold K. Ho, a Ph.D. student in psychology at Harvard, was quoted as saying. "Our work challenges the interpretation of our first biracial president, and the growing number of mixed-race people in general, as signaling a color-blind America."
In the U.S., the "one-drop rule" "" also known as hypodescent "" dates to a 1662 Virginia law on the treatment of mixed-race individuals. The legal notion of hypodescent has been upheld as recently as 1985, when a Louisiana court ruled that a woman with a black great-great-great-great-grandmother could not categorize herself as "white" on her passport.
"One of the remarkable things about our research on hypodescent is what it tells us about the hierarchical nature of race relations in the United States," which co-author James Sidanius, professor of psychology and of African and African American studies at Harvard, was quoted as saying. "Hypodescent against blacks remains a relatively powerful force within American society."
Ho and Sidanius, along with co-authors Mahzarin R. Banaji at Harvard and Daniel T. Levin at Vanderbilt University, say their work reflects the cultural entrenchment of America's conventional racial hierarchy, which assigns the highest status to whites, followed by Asians, with Latinos and blacks at the bottom.
Ho and colleagues presented subjects with computer-generated images of black-white and Asian-white individuals, as well as family trees showing diverse biracial permutations. They also asked people to account directly whether they perceived biracials to be more minority or white. By using several approaches, their work examined both conscious and unconscious perceptions of biracial individuals, presenting the most widespread empirical evidence to date on how they are perceived.
The researchers found, for example, that one-quarter-Asian individuals are without fail considered whiter than one-quarter-black individuals, despite the fact that African Americans and European Americans share a considerable degree of genetic heritage.
Using face-morphing technology that presented a series of faces ranging from 5 percent white to 95 percent white, they also found that individuals who were a 50-50 mix of two races, either black-white or Asian-white, were almost never identified by study participants as white. Furthermore, on average black-white biracials had to be 68 percent white before they were perceived as white; the comparable figure for Asian-white biracials was 63 percent.
"The United States is already a country of ethnic mixtures, but in the near future it will be even more so, and more so than any other country on earth," says Banaji, Richard Clarke Cabot Professor of Social Ethics at Harvard. "When we see in our data that our own minds are limited in the perception of those who are the products of two different ethnic groups, we recognize how far we have to go in order to have an objectively accurate and fair assessment of people. That's the challenge for modern minds."
The team found few differences in how whites and non-whites perceive biracial individuals, with both assigning them with equal frequency to lower-status groups. The researchers are conducting further studies to examine why Americans continue to associate biracials more with their minority parent group.
"The persistence of hypodescent serves to reinforce racial boundaries, rather than moving us toward a race-neutral society," Ho concludes.

Walking from the Bernina Pass to Alp Grum is about 1 1/2hrs walk around Lago Bianco. Great view of Val de Poschiavo and tha glacier. Food and drinks are typical for mountain hiking restaurants
Just a short stay for a great glass of wine and a magnificent view from the terrace.
We could just enter the train from the restaurant table.
We arrived here on foot after taking the train from St Moritz to Ospizio Bernina at the top of the Bernina Pass and then walked to Alp Grum which took just under two hours dawdling. Spectacular walk and the view south from Alp Grum is beautiful.
Marvelous vista onto a mountain scenery including a glacier, rough mountain tops, several waterfalls, a blue lake, trees... All in one. On top: no cars.
A WOW experience on many levels. Excellent hiking spot, and from here one can appreciate some of the most awe-inspiring views in the world.
I arrived with the Bernina Express on a trip from Chur to Tirano on the Alp Grüm (please with Umlaut!!!) after I did the trip again after more than 20 years. I still think the view over the Val Poschiavo is so splendid, I could sit on that bench for hours. Contrary to the clouds, the valley was completely sunny,...
The views from this area is definitely worth seeking out. We came here via the Bernina Express train, which we can not praise enough. Incredibly scenic views! We visited in mid-May, it was awesome to see some ice melting into rivers. We were told it's a completely different scenery during winter and hope we can visit during that time too....
I though this was one of the most scenic spots between St Moritz and Tirano, but does not seem to get as many tourists as some other areas. Definitely worth visiting if you are anywhere between Pontresina and Poschiavo on the railway.
Wonderfully scenic rail journey to Alp Grum from Pontresina on the Bernina Express.
We combined this with a stop at Diavolezza and a trip on the cable car.
All journeys were free thanks to the travel passes provided by our hotel.
There are great views from Alp Grum - there is also a small restaurant.

Today's earnings call includes forward-looking statements and projections, including financial projections for fiscal '12, market growth projections and product development plans.
There can be no assurances that we will achieve these projected results, and we ask that you refer to our most recent filings with the SEC for important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these projections. We do not undertake any obligation to update our forward-looking statements except to the extent required by law.

I would now like to turn the call over to Mark Barrenechea, SGI's CEO. Mark?
Mark Barrenechea
Thank you, Jason. And welcome, everyone, to our fourth quarter and year-end earnings call. This is certainly an interesting data at an earnings call with many companies downgrading growth and earnings. This is not our view of our world. We grew revenues in fiscal 2011 by 22%, and we expect to grow revenues up to 24% in fiscal 2012 while growing our earnings. Let me get into the details.
Fiscal 2011 was a pivotal year for the new SGI in so many years. It was a successful financial year with record revenues, right-line non-GAAP profitability, growth at near three times the market rate, cash growth, and a debt-free balance sheet. Looking beyond our financial results, it was an even stronger year of customer successes, new product introductions, expansion of our worldwide delivery capabilities, while building the framework as we strive to reach our first $1 billion in annual revenues. Our employees are customer-centric and passionate about being the trusted leader in technical computing. Unlike anything I have seen in the industry, their dedication is unparalleled.
Let me highlight our non-GAAP results for fiscal 2011. Our revenue grew 22% to $642 million, gross margin improved to 92.2%, achieved EPS of $0.55, and we ended the year with $143.2 million in cash and debt free. On today's call, I'll look back and make a few observations about our industry and our business. I'll then turn the call over to Jim so he can provide more details on our financials. And finally, before taking your questions, I'll provide a look-ahead on what we see on the horizon.
As we look back on fiscal 2011, several things have become clear. First, we are in the right industry. Second, we have the right strategy. And third, we have executed and have the right leadership and have a performance-driven culture to continue to execute and scale.
Let me comment on the right industry. The technical computing industry lies at the end of the spectrum where customers demand speed and scale over all other factors. This is because the applications they run are their business compared to the other end of the spectrum where applications are used to support their business.

Fertilizer shortage among five subjects to be raised
Team to also meet Chidambaram, Paswan, Pawar
Classical status to be sought for Kannada
BANGALORE: A delegation led by Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa will call on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Union Ministers in New Delhi on Wednesday to draw the Centre's attention on five subjects, including the acute shortage of fertilizers in the State.
The delegation will also urge the Centre to reimburse the Rs. 1,750 crore disbursed by the previous coalition government to cooperatives for the waiver of farm loans; accord special status to Hyderabad Karnataka under Article 371 of the Constitution and classical status to Kannada language; and more funds for tackling infrastructure bottlenecks in Bangalore.
Meet on budget
As a preliminary exercise before preparing the State Budget for 2008-09, Mr. Yeddyurappa on Tuesday held a detailed discussion with farmers and agricultural experts at the Vidhana Soudha. Former Ministers and top officials were present during the session.
Speaking to presspersons later, he said the all-party delegation would comprise leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Congress and the Janata Dal (S), and Kannada writers.
The Chief Minister said he had telephoned Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly M. Mallikarjun Kharge and the former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy and requested them to be part of the delegation.
Not going
However, the Congress and the JD(S) have said that they will not join the delegation.
As on June 30, the State had been supplied 1,05,00 tonnes of Di-ammonium Phosphate (DAP) and 61,000 tonnes of complex fertilizers.
He said he had called on the Prime Minister and Union Minister for Chemicals and Fertilizers Ram Vilas Paswan in New Delhi on June 11 and urged them to supply adequate quantities of fertilizers to the State. Besides promising an additional supply of 20,000 tonnes of DAP before June 20, Mr. Paswan had said that the Centre would supply 1.20 lakh tonnes of DAP and 1.14 lakh tonnes of complex fertilizers in June. He accused the Centre of failing to honour the promise.
July requirement
For July, the State required 95,000 tonnes of DAP. But only 45,000 tonnes had been supplied so far. With regard to complex fertilizers, the Centre had supplied 1,00,410 tonnes against the State's demand for 1,54,000 tonnes. The State had a stock of 1,33,946 tonnes of fertilizers on April 1, 2008, while it had 2,02,763 lakh tonnes on April 1, 2007.
The delegation would also meet Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar and Finance Minister P. Chidambaram and seek the reimbursement of Rs. 1,750 crore disbursed by the Kumaraswamy government for waiving farm loans.
Mr. Yeddyurappa said the Centre would be urged to be urged to accord special status to the Hyderabad Karnataka region under Article 371 of the Constitution for developing the backward region.
The Telangana region of Andhra Pradesh and the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra had been given special status under the same Article, and it should be extended to Hyderabad Karnataka too, he said.
Provision had been made in the last two budgets for the development of 114 backward taluks based on the recommendations of the High Power Committee for the Redressal of Regional Imbalances headed by the economist D.M. Nanjundappa.
Classical language tag
The Prime Minister would be urged accord classical language status to Kannada at the earliest. Kannada had a history of over 2,000 years. The issue of according classical status to the language had been taken up with the Centre on several occasions, he said.
The delegation would meet Union Urban Development Minister S. Jaipal Reddy and request him to release funds for the all-round development of Bangalore, which had attracted global attention in recent years. The State had decided to seek Rs. 5,000 crore for the development of the State capital, he said.

We are a couple in their fifty that love travelling. We love snorkelling, scuba diving, nice restaurant, romantic ride on the ocean etc.
The Owner purchased this studio in 2010
We felt in love with Infinity Bay the first time we stay in 2009. The best beach on the island, onsite scuba shop, good and cheap restaurant and 100% drinkable water was all we were looking for and we found it all.
- Pure drinkable tap water
- Quality of the beach -Proximity of restaurants/bars/convenience store
- On site diving and dive shops
- Breath taking amazing beach
- Eco friendly resort
- Beautiful landscape.
- Welcoming local people
This condo is beautiful and very comfortable. It was perfect for our stay and very quiet. We only slept and showered there so we liked that this condo was tucked away near the back of the property. Being on the second floor, we could also keep the blinds open the whole time without anyone seeing in, unlike any of the properties on the lower levels or near the pool. We also found a little pathway, out back, that led to all the little eateries, away from the beach, owned by expats. You have to try the little Thai restaurant "Nice and Spicy". There is also a little market, near there, for beer, water, chips, etc. For pizza, you have to try Pizzerama. It is located within the Bananarama resort next door. It is awesome. We often took a water taxi to West End beach for lunch or dinner, as well. The "Rotisserie" was delicious for chicken and you have to try the fish balls at the "Lighthouse" restaurant. Raymond was our favorite water taxi driver. Ask for him if you can. Very important note: bring lots of $1, $5 and $10 bills. Make sure they are in excellent condition, no rips. They can NOT take any money which is torn. Also, the children love American bubble gum, so that is always fun to have for trade. As for dates of travel, I preferred the quiet time which started after Easter sunday. The Honduran mainlanders come to Roatan for their holiday the week, ending Easter sunday. It is one gigantic island party. Fun for a day but really loved the calmness afterwords. The scuba diving is awesome and snorkeling from the beach was well worth renting snorkel gear, the entire time. We even used a sea kayak and paddled to the end and then snorkeled all the way back, towing the kayak behind. So fun. For quick fun on the way back to the airport, check out the Iguana Farm. A little past the airport but worth the extra drive. Tiny little place with thousands of iguanas. You can feed them and touch them all you want. Roatan is a pretty place to visit. Infinity Bay resort is beautiful. Love the towel service too. Thanks for everything.
We had a fantastic time at this condo. Andre made the reservation process a breeze and answered several questions we had about the area and offered suggestions about places to eat, etc. He was always prompt with his emails and we feel it was an excellent value for the week we stayed in Roatan.
The property is very nice, and we were able to relax on one of the most gorgeous stretch of beaches on West Bay. We only a few snacks from the restaurant/bar on the beach and all was good. It was your usual menu with American prices like what you would find on any resort, nothing crazy expensive. We found early on, Celeste's, just down the road from the resort and had breakfast there every morning for a very reasonable price.
They have water taxis easily available if you want to spend the day over on the West End. West End has a different vibe and you will not find the "resort" feel that you find on West Bay, but if your looking to hang out and do some local shopping, dining and cheaper drinking, it's worth checking out.
We didn't really plan to do much excursions, but we did decide to do one through the resort itself and I just want to say to be aware before you book with the resort because I feel they are way overpriced for what you are actually getting. The activities director on the resort, I think his name is "Avi" is available to go over all the excursions you can book directly through them and we decided to do an all day excursion to "Pigeon Bay" (I think that was the name?) It was a full day that included two spots for snorkeling prior to arriving at a little island where they would have lunch for you and this also included all the booze and drinks throughout the day. First of all, I must say that this little island was probably one of the most beautiful places I've seen, the waters were so crystal clear with at least 3 different shades of blue/green. We anchored here for about 2hrs and had lunch. However, the boat that took us there barely could accommodate the 13 guests plus the 3 crew. We started off at 0800 and returned back at about 1700, let's just say, I am happy to report I did hear of any issues since there were no bathroom facilities, haha! Definitely not worth the $$$. And also be aware that if you decide to book though the resort and want to charge it your room, they will tack on another fee for this!!
Overall, we had a great time here at Infinity Bay, we loved Andre's condo, it had everything u need for a great relaxing vacation!
We stayed for two weeks in January and it is a great high end condo with a fantastic location. Andre exceeded all of our expectations in the help and advice that he gave us. He always answered within hours of our questions. It was fun to walk the beach at night as there are restaurants and other hotels all along and they quite often had live music or fire dancers - we brought a flashlight but forgot to use it most of the time. We rented a car through Dollar once we arrived - Andre sent us a youtube that said if you rented from one of the smaller local shops you might end up having to pay their standard $2000 deductible which was a great help. We got a much better deal by booking online before we went to pick up the car then what they quoted us at the airport. We drove to Camp Bay and ate at La Sirenas (great food - great drive - highly recommend doing it), we ate at Cal's Cantina a little past French Harbor and it was so good we had to go back several times. We went on several trips with Roatan Ocean Adventures www.roatanoceanadventures.com - they are absolutely fantastic and have great rates. We also went to Oak Ridge and had a water taxi take us to Hole in the Wall for lunch - it was a fun trip - the people are great and the food was okay. Also visited Old Port Royal and New Port Royal and we met lots of locals and never felt unsafe; the Honduran people are very hard working and genuine. We met Miss Peggy from the Clinica Esperenza and we would highly recommend that you visit her to see what a great service she is providing to the local people. We loved every minute of the trip and we were always glad to come home to the great condo
We really appreciated working with the owners, Andre and Luciana, as they made the research and booking process very easy for us. Their professionalism, attention to detail and caring manner instilled a lot of confidence in us (first time using VRBO.com and renting a place vs hotel/resort). They took the time to call us to confirm our booking, provided detailed invoices with several payment options, took the time to provide us with information about the island and when we got back from our trip they called to see how our experience was. Great service.
The studio met our needs perfectly. Just enough space, nice balcony, good air conditioner, comfy bed, modern furnishings and filtered drinking water. The resort is the best on the island. The grounds, beach and pool are well maintained and there are lots of lounge chairs by the beach/pool. The snorkeling is the best part - it surpassed our expectations (octopus, sea turtle, moray eel, lots of fish, sting ray). I recommend doing the Dolphin Snorkel at Anthony Key Resort - phenomenal experience.
Lots of restaurant choices in West Bay and the West End. If you are going to make your own meals in the suite go to Coxen Hole's grocery store called Plaza Mar for supplies, hit up Mangiamo's deli for cheese, deli meats, great sandwiches and if you get there early enough rotisserie chicken.
Overall, great experience and the property met our needs. We recommend it!
Our party of three adults stayed in this studio between Dec 20-Jan 3/11. Booking and finalizing the rental was fast, straightforward, and efficient. Luciana and Andre have made very user friendly this process and just prior to departure they went out of their way to provide very useful and practical information to make our transfers, check-in, and use of the resort and nearby services--this saved us both time and money to then enjoy the well appointed pool and bar, the terrific WALK-IN snorkelling and diving (you don't need to spend a dime on day boats to the outer reef areas to have 90% of the same reef experiences!--just get up from the sand or pool deck and enter the water whenever the urge arrives).
The unit was well equipped, very clean, modern, and has a luxury finish with terracotta floors and granite counters. The A/C worked well--we needed it because we are very humidity averse--but most evenings the cooling breezes are comfortable to sleep in.
If you need to shop, avoid the nearby old town supermarket which most taxi drivers will take you to. Instead make up your list, especially for beer and liquor, and have same taxi driver take you to the modern, huge supermarket in French Harbour where you will find almost any product or other type chain restaurant you would likely want in North America. Negotiate with the drivers--ask for Carlos or Alex at the nearby mini-mall where they wait and take at least 25% off what they ask. Mangiammo in the mini-mall is best for breakfasts and take- out suppers--their groceries are expensive because all food imported. I advise you take your own coffee--island coffee is weak, bland, and overpriced wherever we bought it. ENJOY Roatan! CHRIS/TORONTO
We would like to thank the owners of this condo where we just returned after a wonderful trip. You made it so easy to book this condo and supplied us with information that we needed to know while in Roatan. It was everything we expected and the best beach on the island. Even though we rented a car for our entire stay we took the 3 mile walk along the beach to West End, but took the water taxi back...worth the walk to sight see along the coast. The 4th of July party was fun along with the food, live band and fireworks. The staff at Infinity Bay was extremely accommodating, other tourist were friendly, entire resort was clean, safe, well planned grounds and we will definitely return next year for even a longer stay. We are members of the Palace Resorts which are GOLD Crown and 5 Star, All Inclusive, I would rate Infinity Bay a 4 to 4.5 out of 5. Soon to come is the main reception check in, spa and gym. WONDERFUL place!! Island Roatan just beautiful !!

Grilled Lamb Kofta - Main Courses
Print version
Grilled Lamb Kofta
This is a basic, pan-regional recipe for minced lamb shaped onto skewers.
1 large onion, grated
1 tablespoon coarse salt
2 pounds lamb, ground twice
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground allspice
freshly ground black pepper to taste
olive oil for oiling skewers, lamb, and grill Olive Oil
1. Stir together the onion and salt in a small bowl and let stand for 15 minutes.
2. Place the lamb in a large bowl. Squeeze onion juice out of the salted onion through a very fine strainer or cheesecloth into the bowl with the lamb. Add the eggs, cilantro, cumin, thyme, allspice, and pepper, and mix thoroughly, kneading with your hands and pounding the meat against the side of the bowl with a wooden spoon, for 2 minutes. Let the mixture stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
3. Prepare a charcoal fire.
4. With moist hands, shape the lamb into 8 sausages, about 1 inch in diameter and 4 inches long, and taper the ends of the sausage shapes to keep the meat from slipping off the skewers during cooking. Oil 8 metal skewers, and put the skewers through each sausage. Oil the surfaces of each sausage.
5. Broil the kofta on an oiled grill, preferably about 4 inches above the hot coals, until evenly browned on the outside and pink on the inside. (Alternatively, the kofta may be broiled in oven, about 5 minutes per side.) Serve hot with tzatziki and pita on the side. The kofta may be slipped off the skewers and served in the pita with the tzatziki, tomatoes, and fresh parsley.
This is a basic, pan-regional recipe for minced lamb shaped onto skewers. Very important in all koftas is the smooth texture that comes from grinding the lamb twice and from the thorough mixing that it gets; it is kneaded like bread dough, very unlike the coarse American meat loaf and hamburgers where a quick and gentle mixing is the only way to keep the meat tender. Makes 8 skewers

Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne Engine Launches Planet-Hunting Spacecraft
The Kepler spacecraft is part of NASA's mission to find orbiting planets that could contain water and harbor life. For four years, Kepler will observe the brightness of more than 100,000 stars in the Milky Way to detect periodic dimming. Such dimming could occur when a planet passes in front of its parent star, momentarily blocking the starlight seen from Earth. Kepler contains a lens, primary mirror and a charge-coupled device array for collecting light. After it is launched, Kepler will pass the moon's orbit and orbit the sun, trailing Earth. It is the first space mission of its kind to search for small, orbiting planets that may harbor life in our galaxy.
"All previous planet-hunting expeditions have used land-based telescopes, and Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne is proud to be part of a mission that brings us closer to finding other Earth-like planets," said
The Kepler spacecraft is equipped with a specially designed photometer that can simultaneously focus on more than 100,000 stars with the precision required to detect orbiting planets.
Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne, Inc., a part of Pratt & Whitney, is a preferred provider of high-value propulsion, power, energy and innovative system solutions used in a wide variety of government and commercial applications, including the main engines for the space shuttle, Atlas and Delta launch vehicles, missile defense systems and advanced hypersonic engines.

Telework compromise passes Senate
Thursday - 9/30/2010, 2:49pm EDT
By Vyomika Jairam
Federal News Radio
The Senate voted to pass the compromise version of a teleworking bill that expands telework access across the government.
The finalized bill is still pending approval in the House before it can be signed by President Obama, and will now be on hold until the lame-duck session of the House reconvenes in December.
The Senate passed its original version of the bill in May, and the House followed suit in July. The compromise bill makes all federal employees eligible for telework, as opposed to the current procedure in which employees must prove a need. It also requires that agencies incorporate telework into their continuity of operations plans (COOP)
The compromise bill uses the Senate's definition of telework as a work flexibility arrangement through which an employee may perform their duties from an approved out-of-office worksite.

Hello there. Just got around to reinstalling Neverwinter Nights 2, had forgotten how pretty it was. :) Though, I must say, it pales in comparison to the screenshots you've been putting out for Moonlight Path! Looking forward even more to the update now.
Had a question: What are your plans after The Moonlight Path (Though, of course, I've no idea what the size and scope of The Moonlight Path is, so dunno how long it's going to take. But curious)?

Cheer Factor: Filipino actors walk the red carpet in Udine, New York fests
More News from Bayani San Diego Jr.
They may not get star billing in local movies or soaps, but these underrated Filipino actors recently walked the red carpet in film festivals abroad.
Perennial bit player (now Urian best actress nominee) Lilia Cuntapay made heads turn in Udine, Italy. Antoinette H. Jadaone's "Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay," a mockumentary on the actress' life, was screened at the Far East Film Festival, which wrapped up on Saturday.
Cuntapay said on her Facebook page that en route to Europe, her journey was made very comfortable by kind Filipinos, one a Changi Airport employee and another, a Qatar Airways stewardess.
The inimitable Cuntapay, who plays aswang and witches in horror movies, said she was over the moon when foreign journalists and autograph seekers showed interest in her. "I'm starting to believe I am famous," she said.
In a black caftan accessorized by luminous rosary beads, she met with Udine fest organizers.
Tribeca scene
At the Tribeca Film Festival in New York, local actors Leon Miguel, Ella Guevara and Arnold Reyes walked the red carpet with Filipino-American director Ron Morales.
"I hope to meet foreign producers," said Miguel, who has acted in numerous international movies shot in the country.
Morales' "Graceland" has earned positive notices at the fest, which concludes Monday (Manila time).
Mark Young of Sound on Sight called it a "brisk and gut-wrenching thriller," adding: "Reyes captures perfectly at the same time, the balance of being at the mercy of fate while blaming himself for his misfortune."
Joe Bendel of Libertas Film Magazine agreed: "Tightly helmed. With its visceral sense of place and Reyes' powerhouse performance, it's one of the best in Tribeca."

Few affronts to the First Amendment have been so menacing and wrongheaded as the advocacy for freedom from religion � a freedom we do not have. And few individuals have done more to counter this threat than President Barack Obama, a warrior for prayer. The Lima News can praise few aspects of this presidency to date, but Obama has been stalwart in his defense of religious liberty. It�s a significant contribution to keeping our country free.
The Freedom From Religious Foundation, which seeks to silence religious people, filed a lawsuit against the Obama administration in an effort to end the president�s National Day of Prayer. The foundation is an organization of atheists and secularists who believe they have a right to government-enforced protections from the sights and sounds of religious messages, which they consider offensive. They are no different than anti free-exercise activists who use planning and zoning laws to prevent the construction of mosques because they oppose Muslims and/or the Islamic religion.
The foundation has a broad and bizarre interpretation of the �separation of church and state,� a phrase borrowed from a political letter written by President Thomas Jefferson and abused for more than 200 years by those who want freedom from religion. The First Amendment prevents governments from passing laws that respect �an establishment of religion.� It does not prevent presidents and others in government from expressing their beliefs or even from advocating prayer and respect for God. Words and ideas are not laws, and they have no authority a listener does not give them. The Establishment Clause speaks only to the making of laws, which are acts of force.
That�s what the Chicago-based U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals explained in its dismissal this month of the Freedom From Religion Foundation�s nuisance lawsuit. The court wrote that Obama�s Day of Prayer �does not require any private person to do anything � or for that matter to take any action in response to what the president proclaims.�
On prayer day, people are free to pray or not to pray. That�s the same if it�s Obama having a day of prayer or if it�s happening anywhere else with anyone else � and they�ve been around the Lima area, including in Lima, Ottawa and Wapakoneta. The lawsuit advocated a taking of freedom, as it sought to silence the Day of Prayer.
�Since the founding of the republic,� the judges wrote, �Congress has requested presidents to call on citizens to pray.�
Obama wasted no time basking in the freedom the court protected for him and all other Americans. He oozed his love and respect for Jesus at his second annual Easter prayer breakfast Tuesday at the White House.
�As busy as we are, as many tasks as pile up, during this season, we are reminded that there is something about the resurrection ... of Our Savior Jesus Christ that puts everything else in perspective,� Obama said.
He recounted Christ�s march to Calvary, the crucifixion and the resurrection. He spoke of an �unfathomable grace� on the part of Jesus, for assuming the sins of the world. It�s a grace, he said, that �calls me to reflect, and it calls me to pray.� He credited his wife and children for helping him to maintain perspective but said Scripture guides him even more.
Obama spoke his heart and mind. He did not pass a law forcing others to feel the same or to respect a word he said. He enjoyed, obeyed and upheld the First Amendment, for which he deserves great credit.

Originally written on Pro Sports Daily | Last updated 11/14/14
The Carolina Panthers have turned to longtime front-office executive Ernie Accorsi to assist in the team's pursuit of a new general manager. Accorsi, 71, will begin serving immediately as a consultant to help the Panthers find a replacement for Marty Hurney, The Charlotte Observer reported Friday. "I have a very high regard for Mr. Richardson and look forward to providing any help that I can to him and the organization in their search for a new general manager," Accorsi said. The Observer reported that Accorsi has no plans to seek the job. Accorsi is known around the league as a man with a keen eye for talent. His long career in the NFL includes stints with the Colts, Cleveland Browns and the New York Giants. He was with the Giants as general manager when they landed quarterback Eli Manning in 2004.

A good safe guard for your fish.
posted 6 years ago
We have used this product in our pond. One summer our fish had various health trouble due to the very hot temps of the water & air. This helped when added to the pond water. It didn't get rid of everything but helped. I think maybe we didn't catch the problem in time when we did use this product. We now keep it on hand in case we need it. Pond owners that have fish will benefit from this product & it's safe for you pond plants.
Pros: Easy to add.
Cons: Figuring out how much to add.

I live far away and have no family or friends there. I know attendence has been down for some years. Is it picking up? Are the sports bars picking up? Is the town getting into the team again?
I think the Reds are just 1 decent starter from being a very, very good team. And a full stadium would be a great boost too.
What IS the buzz around town?

A 40-year-old diamond merchant lost diamond jewellery, the police say would be worth a few crores, which was stolen by robbers from his car while he was visiting a doctor in Borivli (East) on Tuesday.
The police said they could not immediately give the exact value of the jewellery that was lost. The robbers also took away Rs2 lakh in cash that was also in the bag containing the jewellery.
The incident happened in the Carter Road area, where Manish Shah, the diamond trader resides. Shah had taken his nine-year-old son Krish into the clinic to be treated for minor wounds from a fall, and made the elder son, 14-year-old Parth, wait in the car till they returned.
It was about 11.30am, when two young men, stopped at the vehicle and exchanged a few words with the boy who was sitting in the front seat, said Bharat Worlikar, senior inspector. Kasturba Marg police station.
Pointing to a spot on the road, they told the boy that some money was lying outside. "The boy got out of the vehicle and tried to locate the money. As he bent down and searched the area, the two men opened the back door of the car and took the bag containing the diamond jewellery and cash and fled," the police inspector said.
Shortly, the boy realised that the men were not around. When he got back to the car he found that the bag was gone too. He looked about but could not see them. So, he rushed into the clinic and informed his father about what had happened.
Shah approached the Kasturba police and registered a complaint.
Worlikar said the police have made sketches of the two men, who seemed to be in their 20s, based on the description by Shah's son.
The police inspector also informed that a CCTV camera in the area was not functioning at the time of the incident. But the police are checking footage from another CCTV camera a little distance away.

My name is Kathy and I have a boutique in Minneapols where we live. Doug is a musician and a software engineer. We have 5 children and 3 grandchildren . We enjoy being involved in the care and maintenence of Cedar Cliff and watching it bring such pleasure to its visitors.
The Owner purchased this house in 2002
Doug and I love the North Shore and wanted to share the magic with others and this was the perfect way to do it! We love the community and wanted to help support the local economy and bring more awareness of this incredible wilderness in our own back yard. We chose this large historic Craftsman because we love the quality and simplicity of the architecture and the ability to house large groups comfortably and most of all because we love the Lake! Being on a dead end road is a big plus and the location makes it easy to get to outdoor activies , shops and restaurants.
Cedar Cliff offers a truly unique North Shore experience. You have an entire house that was on the historic homes tour with an amazing Carlton Peak fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, organic coffee, tea and cocoa, wonderful bedding and quilts plus lots of character and lots of privacy.
We have hosted family reunions, yoga retreats, weddings, birthday celebrations, craft weekends, girlfriends weekends and workshops to name a few.
The Great Room is perfect for the group activities and the bedrooms are set to the back of the house for more peaceful quiet time. The two large screened porches give even more great relaxing lake time opportunities and you can even sleep out there on an air bed if you want!
We are a Green facility and use recycled and environmentally friendly products and high quality natural fibers in our linens, towels and rugs.
The biggest plus, of course, is the Lake. The feeling you get looking out over that vast expanse of water just has to be experienced.
Our book club had a grand time - great wine, chocolate, massages and book discussion of Ivan Doig's The Whistling Season. Lots of wind and waves along with shopping in Grand Marais made it a true "Superior Weekend".
The decor and ambiance of Cedar Cliff made our stay exquisite!
Wow! What a treat to stay here. We had three families comfortably at Cedar Cliff for an extended ski weekend. Six adults and seven children all had plenty of space to socialize and not trip over each other. The kitchen was more appointed than we had anticipated -- great surprise! It was so easy to get comfy and not want to leave. The lakeshore location is breathtaking. Also, upon departure, a couple kids left items. :( Kathy was kind enough to send back a nerf gun that was sorely missed. Great service!!! We plan to return.
We have been returning to Cedarcliff for ten years and have found it to be a beautiful, peaceful oasis. The building sits right on the lake and it so relaxing to sit on the long window benches and watch the water flow over the rocks. The property has beautiful trees and sitting areas so one can feel at peace. We have always enjoyed the snowy winters and skied cross country on the trails, but we have also hiked. We want to return in the fall and see the colors-it must be incredible! The beds are so comfortable that everyone always sleeps late. The pillows and comforters are down in nicely decorated rooms. We especially enjoy the dining room table where all 12 of us can share a meal together. The fireplace warms the living room where we love to gather to share our day's adventures. This truly is our home away from home.
We celebrated my parents 50th anniversary and the house and property is amazing with several activites near by! Easy to make meals and enough seating and sleeping for everyone! Would love to go again another year! Kathy, property owner, is awesome to work with as well!
The lake views and frontage were a delight to our family, as well as the comfortable house. All the amenities are there to make a vacation relaxing. The cabin is situated near lots of great hiking trails, the bike trail, Lutsen Resort, and close to Grand Marais for shopping. When we are in the area again, we will choose this property again.
Kathy - Just wanted to say thanks for the great weekend at your place. We had four families with young kids (ages 3-9) and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Given the make up of the families, we had to do some creative room sharing due to the abundance of twin beds, but that didn't take away from the whole experience. Great dining space for a large group and the main great/family room was awesome! The kitchen was fully stocked with all necessities. Views of the lake were magnificent! Would love to come back in the summer when we could spend time on the porches and have the windows open. It was an easy drive to Lutsen for a couple days of excellent Spring skiing! Thanks again, we definitely hope to be back!
I just wanted to send a note saying how much we loved your place. It is beautiful and we all had such a great relaxing weekend.
By Saturday night people began saying things like, "When we come back next year..."
The house is truly a treasure and it is great that you share it with others.
All the best,

No possible way to stay in touch...
I have no idea how our president thinks he can keep in touch when he's that far from the White House. I know I pull over to a pay phone once in a while and check in, but I've never seen one on a golf course, and I bet he doesn't even carry quarters the way I do. In fact, I have one of those coin dispensers in my car, just in case I hear something important on the radio. Have you ever seen the president with a radio in his golf cart? Or a coin dispenser? Not to mention an extension cord. Me neither.
I wish when I went on vacation I could just shut out the world like Obama does. What a sweet deal. And lazy. But what did you expect, right?
