NCAA Tournament Betting: Iona vs. BYU Pick

The First Four in Dayton will continue on Tuesday night with what has to be one of the most highly anticipated games leading up to the first day of the dance. The BYU Cougars will take on the Iona Gaels.

BYU is one of these teams that just seemed to be destined to be coming here to Dayton for the mass majority of the end of the season. This was always a team that felt like it was just ahead of a weak bubble, and though there really was only one signature win (a victory over the Gonzaga Bulldogs), there were no truly terrible losses either. The difference between this year's team and the ones that have made some interesting runs in the dance over the course of the last few years is that there is no more Jimmer Fredette. That being said, both Noah Hartsock and Brandon Davies have the ability to do some big time damage. Both shoot over 50 percent from the field, and the two are averaging 31.7 points and 12.5 boards per game. They are both prone for foul trouble though, and if that becomes a factor, Iona is going to be able to take big time advantage.
Let the controversy continue… Iona was clearly the last team that made it into the field of 68 this year, and it was certainly the one that has a lot of teams griping. The Gaels didn't beat a team this year of any tremendous note, though there were several games that did make you turn your head and think that this was the type of team that could have gone on a run in the dance. Losing in the semifinals of the Metro Atlantic Tournament looked to be a killer, but in fairness to the Selection Committee, it picked a team that passed the eye test. This definitely has the look of a team that belonged in the field. Scott Machado is one of the best point guards in the nation and is usually picking up double-doubles every single night. Michael Glover is also a double-double man with 18.5 points and 9.0 rebounds per game on average. There are a number of big time sharpshooters that can do a lot of damage as well, and there is no doubt that this is a team that is going to have the ability to force the tempo and make things happen.
The Final Word: We just aren't all that sure why Iona is the underdog in this one. Not only do we think that the Gaels have the potential to be in the main bracket, but they could upset the Marquette Golden Eagles in the next round as well. Machado and the gang are going to be happy to get their second chance at greatness, and the MAAC reps certainly aren't going to punt this chance to prove how amazing they can be here in Dayton.

Written on Thursday, September 22, 2011 by Michael Reagan
There's one sure way for Republicans and conservatives to lose the 2012 presidential election — split over who their presidential nominee will be, and fail to go all-out to support the winner.
People keep asking me, "What would your father, Ronald Reagan, do?" The answer is easy. No matter who the nominee is, he or she would get his support. After all, his famous "11th Commandment" demanded that Republicans support their party's nominee, no matter who he or she might be.
He certainly would have supported John McCain in 2008. Tragically, if the party of Ronald Reagan had followed what would have been his lead, John McCain — not Barack Obama — would the president of these United States today. If Obama is not to be re-elected in 2012, Republicans need to get their act together, decide on a nominee, and back him or her to the hilt.
Let's look at some flaws of the current frontrunners. Both Romney and Perry, like the rest of us, have their share of flaws — Perry for having signed an executive order to inoculate 12-year-old girls against HPV, and signing a bill to provide in-state tuition to illegal aliens.
As for Mitt Romney, his membership in the Mormon church has earned the hostility of some Christians, and his institution of so-called Romneycare when he was governor of Massachusetts has been questioned by many conservatives.
As things stand now, either Perry or Romney will be the 2012 Republican presidential nominee. Republicans will be obliged to support the winner if we can hope to win the presidential election, no matter the flaws.
It's important to recall that Ronald Reagan outraged some Republicans when as California's governor he raised taxes and signed an abortion bill and became the first California governor to sign a no-fault divorce law Despite all this, he still went on to become the greatest U.S. president of our lifetime.
If he were alive today and we were to nominate him in 2012, I wonder which wing of the GOP his opponents would come from.
Regardless of the outcome of such a confrontation, Republicans will have to either hang together or hang alone.
Should either Romney or Perry win the GOP presidential nomination, we are either going to support the winner in the November election or watch Barack Obama win a second term. Republicans simply can't afford to be bystanders in 2012.
Put it this way: Who do you hope will be the president when 2013 dawns: Barack Obama or a Republican? The answer is clear, whether our nominee is Romney or Perry or even someone else, such as Michele Bachmann.
Michael Reagan is the son of President Ronald Reagan, a political consultant, and the author of "The New Reagan Revolution" (St. Martin's Press, 2011). He is the founder and chairman of The Reagan Group and president of The Reagan Legacy Foundation. Visit his website at www.reagan.com, or e-mail comments to email@example.com.

The debate is now…who will be the nominee.
Once that is decided it's all all about eliminating Obama from the White House.
Wouldn't it be nice to have Obama defeated more soundly than any canditate in US history?
So much for integrity.
Integrity daves right? Transparency was obama's promise. c-span obama promised,posting bills on the internet obama promised,cut the debt in half obama promised.Cross the aisle to republicans obama promised.No new taxes for those who make less than 250k obama promised.Okay,I can go on but you get the point. daves,lets start with Integrity,okay. obama promised to have the most Transparent administration ever,right? okay,show your sealed college records and be Transparent. Show us all a real birth certificate.About that social security number,we all have only one except obama. Why no c-span? The debt has almost double since obama and where's the reduction he promised in the debt. jobs he said would be top priority. Okay,back to Integrity. obama promised to have the most Transparent administration ever daves,that was obama's own words… Transparency means nothing hidden,open for all to see,Transparency daves,lets see obama's college records and lets see them now. How about the cost to tax payers for michelles highend vacations? Transparency daves Transparency. Will you still vote obama after all his broken promises daves?Integrity daves. If you have Integrity you will make obama do as he promised or you would not ever vote for that person again,right? Integrity daves. Transparency remember?If democrat voters had Integrity then obama would not get a single vote. Except for yours daves.No more obama and no more obama lies and no more lack of obama Integrity.
Why moderate Integrity,unless this site has none.
Yes someone with a birth ncertificate
he is the most tranparent…you can see clear through is bonifides.
There are places for people like you: the New York Post, the LA Times, the Huffington Post, etc. However, this site is for THINKING Americans and your comments are never appreciated (I always note a lot of negative comments).
I'm not saying you have to go, just give us a respite from the liberal blabbing we hear way too often. To be so unappreciated is sad so go where you will be embraced: the aforementioned rags.
huffpuss is perfect for daves. He fits in perfectly with the liberlosers there.
Michelle Bachmann has expressed most clearly of all the candidates those principles most of us endorse and want to be the Republican platform. When will we be ready to elect the person most qualified and passionate about this country instead of worrying so much about gender? Add Sarah to the team, and you will have two qualified, experienced people who have all the credentials to be elected except the backing of some males who care more about keeping the boys club alive than doing what is best for the country. Add Connie Rice, and what a powerhouse we could move into the White House, and really do some good for the country instead of just doing what is best for themselves.
Michelle is certainly a good spokesman for many American values. One major problem is she has voted twice this year to extend the Patriot act provisions that make the requirement for reasonable cause for search & seizure a thing of the past. This gives the feds enormous power. I think we'd all agree after the last three years, that's the last thing we should want.
"…two qualified, experienced people…" pray tell me how?
If either of these two excellent ladies are on the ticket, that would guarantee the Obamanation's re-election.
I fear there is no way Americans will elect two women to the top positions, no matter how great they are. Not yet.
This is not a one man show!
This is what Libs do Michael and you can see what that gets us. You can strap two different party hats on two sharks and they will both eat you when you jump in the water. Not going to support the best con and will watch as people jump in the water but will only help those that get back out on their own.
Ten million, 20 million, 30 million, 40 million… Hello Sharia flag, for English please press 2!
P.S. Did you vote this week at "you cut"? http://majorityleader.gov/YouCut/
I will vote for the GOP nominee, even if it is Daffy Duck!
P.S. Daves is a liberal plant.
Carefull about feeding liberal trolls Dano. Daves will start cutting and pasting all usual liberal garbage and call it "facts"
Me too. And Donald Duck would be a better president than the egomaniac we have now.
It is going to be very hard to outdo the massacre that President Carter suffered at the hands of President Reagan. We can only cross our fingers & hope. Oh yes, it probably wouldn't hurt to show up at the polls in massive numbers in Nov 2012. I agree with Mr Reagan. I support Mrs Palin as my 1st choice, but if they nominate Mrs Collins, I would vote for her. Almost anyone other than the present resident of the White House.
See if tops George McGovernless. Massaclueless and DC. Just hope all the kids and libs wake up and put down the Cruel Aid
Tell me lifer USAF
Did you also boo US Army Steven Hill when you saw him on Fox last night speaking from Iraq?
Did he turn you're Homophobia stomach when he spoke? Did he make you throw up on your last VHS take of "Full Metal Jacket"?
Did you say a prayer to your god you hope he comes home in a body bag because of his life style?
Morgan Freeman to CNN's Piers Morgan: The Tea Party is racist
Morgan Freeman must know Wackajig
I sincerely hope that if Paul is the Republican nominee he chooses a VP from the other candidates now running. I also pray that if he is NOT the nominee his supporters will vote for whichever Republican is and not go off and pout. That or Paul running as an Independent will bring us four more and much worse years of the Obama nightmare. Please THINK about that.
I agree whole-heartedly. I think that Republicans have their focus wrong. They are giving the liberal media ammunition every time they argue among themselves. They need to get focused on one solid plan to solve the problems then stand united with a single message – "Here is our solution for Obama's mess". Without a solution and without unity they play into the hands of the media and the nations discontent with congress and politicians in general. I understand the pros of the debate process (candidates proving themselves, etc.) but right now people hate the way that every issue is politicized. They want solutions that affect their ability to work and build a future. There is tolerance for listening to politicians bash one another. Solutions and unity are the answer they want right now.
— I meant — "There is no tolerance for listening to politicians bash one another."
I shall vote for hussein's dog , if he runs against him.Just anyone but hussein.
And I hope he takes a chunk out his arse
Evidentally, if you say Koon, you will be moderated.
Thanks Michael for pointing out that even the greatest among our presidents could not please all the people all the time. And, you could not be more on target than to say that if a republican does not become president in 2012, it will be because we republicans simply are not bright enough to accept that we might not get exactly what we want every time.
It would be a real tragedy if our stubbornness caused us to get exactly what we do not want — four more years of speeches.
The matter of a solidified Republican Party to defeat Obama and many more democrats; and get this country back on the right path to financial and international respect. It's not about the Tea Party it's about a joint effort, some give and take is the only answer and not every person will get all that he or she wants but about compromise and the comncerted effort of a joined republican effort to take back power,get rid of Big Government and more spend and
Tax Government !
Couldn't be more wrong, this is totally absurd and reason america has been destroyed. BLIND PARTY politics, is asinine. We' have RINOS taking up conservative spaces, he wants us to pick one of two evils, just as bad as Mccain and it will NOT happen. If the Republican party wants to operate this way, ok to their DEMISE, Perry and Romney are bothe RINOS, Bilderber gpicked and supported, we're not agreeing to NWO. This TWO party system has given us the mose CORRUPT, incompetent Congress in our 200 plus years. I don't care if terms are not adequate or what journalists propaganda needs to do but this is all wrong. Bush had total Republican Congress for few years, what did we get, NOTHING GOOD. It takes more than picking R's and D's. Get off your butts and find candidates with morals common sense. There will be 5 (FIVE) presidemntial parties this year, this is happening because the 2 parties have FAILED.
I could not agree more. We must find a better candidates. Perry and Romney are not them. Why should we settle for inferior? There is someone out there that we all can get behind. Stop settling for second best.
Who do you think that Perry and Romney are inferior to?
Irrespective of the candidate selected as the Republican nominee, it is that person who we must all support, or we help o-vomit get re-elected.
There is only one problem with your way of thinking. If there are more than two parties the Democrats will win, and we will get BO.
I agree that Romney and Perry are the Bilderberg picks of the day. More slowly but there will be still headed for global regional governance and a pantheistic society. There is a growing coalition of tea party patriots that will WRITE IN A CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE RATHER THAN ANY RINO. If the Republicans want in, they had better have a primary of the top 5. So far Bachmann and Paul have a huge following despite MSM reports to the contrary.
Patriot, it would be hard to come up with a worse idea than what you seem to propose. I simply can not believe that any significant portion of the Tea Party will devolve into a fringe of thumb sucking cry-babies who will throw away, all the effort and resources the rest of us have invested just to accommodate such mindless logic.
We're involved in an election, man, not a shakedown operation. Do you really think Paul or Bachmann would attempt to throw all we've accomplished in the toilet just because they are not chosen as the standard bearer? Surely you must be able to see that if that is the best they can inspire in their followers, they would be disastrous choices.
Probably most of us were told in our youth that you could tell a person's character by the company they keep. Haven't you figured out yet that it is the actions of the people who support Ron Paul who have done him more harm than good? I might not like some of his positions; but, I sure as Hell don't dislike them as much as I do someone trying to strong arm me in to voting for him.
Why don't you run some of this kind of crap past him and get his opinion before posting it? Gotta feeling you might get an ear full. Geez!!!
obungle also had a huge following, look where that got us.
More like four more years of Marxist advancement. BHO, if re-elected, will not serve out his full term in my estimation. We need to be all over his endorsement of the company that got $525 million of our dollars when they knew they were going to go bankrupt. Put that together with the Fast and Furious crime on the Mexican border and you will have him pinned to the wall. Also expose what Obama Care will cost this nation ie: we the ordinary citizens and tax payers.
Robert, do not fall into the trap of thinking that o-vomit's supporters see his misdeads as bad things. They do not mind anything he does as long as they receive their food stamps.
Even worse, four nore years of radical socialism
It's not just empty speeches that we are worried about. It is the destruction of the Constitution, state's rights, American rights, and the downfall of America. They hate America and have laid plans to destroy it.
Well said, "Distressed". I therefore recommend that we all get behind the Republican nominee, even if a RINO. "A journey of 1,000 miles begins with one step."
If a RINO is selected by the GOP , I shall be truly pissed off, but I will still for that person, unfortunately.
Our Candidate to run against Obama will be derived by our Convention and Our Representatives who are expected to act based upon their constituants views. In the end we will have a worthy Candidate and we WILL COME TOGETHER TO SUPPORT HIM OR HER.
Keep your eyes and ears open and our powder dry.
I agree, we must unite after the GOP candidate is selected or Obama will win again. Let's stop all this talk about third party candidates, as the last time we had a serious third party candidate, Ross Perot, Clinton won the election.
I agree,whoever the Republican candidate is we should support them over the Socialist Obama.
Don't forget, he will need lots of help from the House and Senate also to correct the mess Obama has made. I believe for the first time in my life I will vote straight Republican.
Republican vs Tea Party; it really is not vs, it really is a difference of what movement; tea party wanting big change and RNC business as usual. These two movements are not hurting our chances of getting the white house back. They are just creating a debate that is making the party better. What party you ask, I call it the TEAPUBLICAN party. Teapublicans have the basic tennants that describe a republican but thay want those tennants practiced by those we put in office to represent us. Simply put, the canidate a teapublican puts in office, reflects what his constituants want.
Right on Extreme Far Right Conservative brother. I am much harder on the GOP/RNC than you are. I want the GOP/RNC to join with us. I however do not believe that will happen. They have become part and parcel of the washington establishment. We need a cadre of Patriots to replace them.
The Tea Party is mainly comprised of Constitutionalist Republicans we will take back our Party representative of its founding basis. It will take time but we will get rid of the Old Guard RINO's. We have already started and WE WILL SUCCEED.
It is strange to me, some will not vote for Romney because of His Mormon Religion, however, it didn't stop anyone for voting
for Obummer with His Muslim Religion. He says He is a Christian yet He canceled the
National Day of Prayer and honored Ramadan.
Remember people worried about JFK being Catholic. We are a Judeo Christian Country.
None of our Judeo Christian Religions are out
to take over the world as are the Muslims.
It's because he is a socialist RINO and not a conservative that we don't want him. Do not judge a book by his cover. He is handsome and glib. So was Obama and look what we got. RESEARCH YOUR CANDIDATE!
You are correct in your assement of him, but he is still definitely far preferrable to what we have now.
Totally right. Their plan is to colonize and conquer, just as they are trying to do all over the world. If people are tired of the tyranny and the living conditions where they are from, why are they trying to bring them here. Leave Sharia law where you came from. It has NO PLACE in AMERICA.
I am in total agreement with Michael. None of the candidates are perfect, but all are far superior to Obama. We must support the nominee, no matter what. I would vote for Bugs Bunny against Barrack Obama! In fact, Bugs had a word for Obama. He once said,"What a 'maroon'!"
Bugs Bunny can't run
I have traditionally voted Republican, but I will not vote for a party anymore. I will not vote for McCain or Perry. So if that's the only choices; if I can't vote for someone I can approve and trust; then I just won't vote. As far as I am concerned, any one of the aforementioned candidates is about as bad as the other. They don't know what they're doing, or they're seriously making wrong choices which I cannot and will not support.
I am extremely conservative but I have to disagree with you. A NO VOTE is almost the same as pulling the lever for Obama. I will never be guilty of having helped to elect or re-elect him. I strongly urge EVERYONE to do the same as I and follow Mr Reagan's lead. We can do it slowly if needed although I would prefer a more speedy return to the way we used to be & need to be again.
Hi Act,
The real question here is: is obama worth voting against, or not? If not, then don't vote for the imperfect republican. I think obama is definitely worth voting against.
The only difference between Obama and the establishment Republicans is how Quick they take us to Hell. Vote for Herman Cain or Ron Paul they have won several straw polls. We need to break the Lib. Republicans.
Unfortunately these people are too stupid to understand this.
These idiots think that Obama is ruining the economy and once some Republican gets in, everything will be wonderful again. The economy is broken after 30 years of stupid policies that slowly bled the middle class dry and came to a head under GWB but were hidden by the housing bubble and easy credit.
If you want the Republican party to change don't vote for Republicans who are going to serve up the same old crap.
I like all the candidates. Each of theme have strengths and weaknesses. Anyone of them would be fine with me as long as Obama is defeated. I have my favorites just like everyone else. Chances are my favorite or your favorite is not going to make it. When push comes to shove, I do not care who goes against Obama as long as everyone stays unified in the common goal of getting him out in 2012,…if we can survive that long. What I see on this Post are many unhappy supporters, some even claiming not to vote if their choice does not win. Some wish a third party vote that will assure a victory for Obama. Support your favorite up till the end but be prepared to come together if the results do not turn out exactly the way you had hoped. Obama must be a one term President. Lets focus on his defeat and our recovery no matter what.
You are 100% correct.
Oh Brother, here we go again. Another time out.
Sure gets old, doesn't it?
Sure does Jackie and I write the contact center every day several times. You would think it gets old for them too.
So do I, and my last email was last night after an adult beverage (or two) and was pretty scathing so I'm amazed my above comment ever showed up at all today.
Do you actualy think that they give an obama?
It's hard for me to come up with words nasty enough for ted "communist to the core" turner. His head should be removed and jammed on to a pike for public display. Who the H&&& is tavist smiley?
"United we stand,divided we fall". I agree with the article that we must be united. Obama and mules want us to be divided and be vulnerble to his lies and evil chicago political tricks. Obama won last time by rallying all evil illegal people to go to poles and break the laws and he still is doing the same thing now. American people by staying united we can defeat the evil,immoral,lying,controlling Democratic polititions that are trying to take over our nation and taking our rights away from us. Stop them now by mass communication to promote people to get out to vote to overcome Obama and mules. Take immediate action and effort to this purpose of preserving your freedom to vote and have freedom from Obama and Democratic rule. Don't take the defeated attitude and sit on you butts!
Michael Reagan hits the nail on the head. "The perfect is the enemy of the good". That means that, despite flaws, ANY of the leading Republican candidates is better than Obama. As has been said, "I would vote for a frozen orange juice can over Obama".
Obama and the Democrats keep talking about "the Tea Party this, and the Tea Party that". They are trying to get non-Tea Party-Republicans to turn against the Tea Party (and to forget that the Tea Party is the reason the Republicans now hold the House of Representatives). Republicans of all stripes should not fall for this ill-disguised attempt to split the Republican Party.
If we want solidarity the republicrats must join with the Tea Paty Patriots. At this point the republicrats are hostile to the Tea Party. Down the Republicrats, up the Tea Party.
"What would your father, Ronald Reagan, do?"
No other candidate(crook) will get my support.
I have loved both of the two previous debates. However, I was annoyed at them being so vicious toward each other. The only ones they should be attacking are the democrats, who havehelped put us in this mess. Newt was the only one who had the guts to say it. Why don't the deocrats admit they are socialists. And the woman running against Scott Brown betstowed how wonderful the public workers are. I thought the top earners already paid their fair share. The way she came across is that all workers should be public employees and that the entrepeneurs had little to do with the country. What would the country be like if all workers were public workers, then no one would have to pay any taxes and then where would. I think the private sector could do better with running the country than any politician.
Seriously folks, it has to be none other than Michele Bachmann, hopefully reaching out to Sarah Palin.
Right now, everyone running in the primary must be vetted to the enth degree, and if they have skeletins in their closets we need to bring them out, because if we do not then the Obama media and obama lackies will. We will certainly vote for the outcome of a very stringent primary, but do not think for a moment that we need to back off in these primaries, because Obama will not in the General election.
And if they cannot find any skeletons, they will invent some. Perry has lots of them so expect and onslaught. Perry has been attending bilderberg conferences 2007-2011. I will not support anyone on CFR, TC or Bilderberger.
If he is the Republican nominee & you don't support him then you are casting a vote for Obama by default. If you can live with that on your conscience, then by all means, stay home on election day. I would prefer Herman Cain or Sarah Palin but if the Republican party nominates Susan Collins, I will FULLY support her over President Obama. There is only 1 logical choice on election day. ANY REPUBLICAN NOMINEE OVER BARACK OBAMA!!!!!!
I agree that it is counter productive for contenders to point fingers at each other. But, when you say it "has to be Bachman", you are doing exactly the opposite of what the article says. We must have a winner and all stand behind the choice. Obama already has ACORN, the unions, the blacks, the Jews and the media going for him….no matter what happens to the economy or Israel, etc.If we split, he's in for sure.
Publically, blacks will not stand up because of some peer pressure, but I can tell you they are largely fed up with Obama. Jews are changing their minds about him. Educate about Sharia Law coming to destroy our rights and you will find LOTS of voters. And Latinos (except those in the drug business) are really Republicans. They work hard and want to keep their money. Under Obama we will all be slaves with no freedoms.
I would love to agree with you, Patriot. However, not many people read and what they read/hear leaves out anything abt Muslim danger. Blacks are still behind him and I disagree about Latins. Cubans are Repubs but not Mexicans. Their California brethren have coached them as to what's in it for them if the Dems are in.And,Obama is definitely schmoozing them every chance he gets.
The people of Australia knew how to handle those who were trying to change their laws–"If you do not like our laws, here's the front door-get out!"
You think Bachmann and Palin swing that way? I thought they were straight.
the tea party will not support anymore BILDERBERGER selected rinos. both Perry and
Romney have been hand picked by this One world government group. I will only vote for a true conservative and patriot.ITS THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE AMERICA! The entire old gaurd makes me sick! mAY godhelp us all!
I am a member of the Tea Party & couldn't disagree with you any more than I do right now. I dont want a Rhino either, but 1 of them is preferrable to what we have now. I don't want either Perry or Romney but either 1 will get my vote if nominated. At this point, a non vote is the same as a vote for the re-election of President Obama. I, for 1, don't want that on my conscience.
It would be nice if we could pick all the good points of each candidate and roll them into one person; but alas, perfection is not to be found.
Therefore, we must pick one that has as many good points as possible and run with it; hoping that the candidate's good points will be adequate to withstand the pressures of the office and become a strong leader.
My president would be one who abides by the Constitution,has morale courage,integrity, honesty,fairness in judgement,a strong commanding voice,clean, neat, in appearence,steel in the spine,iron in his/her words,not afraid to growl at our enemies, and sharp teeth with which to bite in case need be, and last but surely not least a Christian.
I think that means ANYONE other than who we have.
No third party – we must get obummer out!
I would LOVE to see the GOP contenders just telling us what they will do once in power, NOT pointing fingers at each other. That achieves ZERO.
I think the GOP and the Tea Partiers need to get together and find common ground and then support who could get rid of Obama. Putting a women against Obama may not work any better this time then it did before. I'm not sure people are ready for a woman president. I would say vice president though. Meanwhile we don't need a bunch of republicans/conservatives clouding up things and taking votes from someone who could beat Obama. Then there is the matter of who would go with the Constitution and Bill of Rights instead of wanting to change them. Sure makes it tough knowing who to vote for yet.
Republicans are not Conservatives. There is little differance between party leaders. We will end up in the same place, the trip will just take longer with the republicrats.
That, at least,gives us a little breathing room. Better a slow down than a super swift ride to hell.
Michael Reagan , I loved and respected your dad and have a great deal of respect for you , but I am tired of choosing the best candidate over two misfits . I will vote for Michelle Bachmann or Ron Paul even if it has to be written in . No more status quo machine politicians that say everything you want to hear then get in and do nothing to rock the boat .
I am sure that barfup o-vomit will thank you.
The only four possible Candidates I'd trust to be President/Vice President are Ron Paul,Michele Bachmann,Herman Cain and Sarah Palin. Any of those four,in any combination,would be fine with me. Their track records show that they'd be exactly what America needs to get out of the mess we've been dragged into.
I agree but I sure would like to see some one in there that is god fearing and 100% for this country and it's servival.We need some one with GRIT and big kahoonas.I don't know if we are going to get one. But if it's a she,I will back her all the way!
Looking forward to the GOP debate tonight. Neither Perry or Romney have my vote they are RINO's in my mind and part of the establishment. Too bad we couldn't just bundle them all up into one candidate. Didn't vote for oblamo and would NEVER vote for the usurper.
An apt warning, but fear not: Republicans will form up and vote for the nominee.
The Two Minute Conservative at http://adrianvance.blogspot.com has political analysis, science and humor. Daily on Kindle.
I am so far right that Rush is libtard compaired to me. I will not support, mitt or perry. Both of them are bo in white face. Why do you assume republicans are conservatve. The republican leadership is dem. lite, they are republicrats. The leadership has more in common with bo than with conservatives. Up the Tea Party! Down the republicrat party. Let us absorb the republicrats, as distasteful as that is.
strangely, Perry and Romney are labeled as the 'front runners' for Republicans. The winner of each debate I've seen has been reluctantly identified by our liberal press as Ron Paul. I would vote for almost anyone but Obama, but look at Rick Perry's history. He could be just as scary…forced immunizations of teen girls for std's…??? Come on.
You are a flat our liar. No teen girl was "forced" to have the shots, since an opt out option was available. Are you bright enough to know what "opt out" means? Nah, I guess not.
The law should have been a "opt In"
but Perry might not had got the big bucks from the pharmaceutical companies if it had been written like that
check out Michelle Bachman's recent 2 votes on the Patriot Act!
I remember as "We hang together or we hang separately". Then; at that time words really did have meaning. Our founders risked their lives; their lives, not just a birdie on the 9th green. Our founders risked their fortunes. A number of them were rich and gambled it all. Most were just men of some means; they left themselves no quarter. The odds were great. Against……But today they are held in contempt by all the Kings Men; Come back as the Democrat party. They deny the Liberties of man and all else. They deny the rights of man as granted by God. They advance the STATE to rule over all.
The current battle is clear. It is the same as before. Again and again man must free himself from the shackles of State. The price of freedom was paid but of our own volition it may be paid again.
The Democrat agenda for a Presidential candidate is merely: who can win the election. The Republican agenda has always been: who more clearly supports the platform, is moral, and has a clean record. Obviously the latter is more honorable but has served to elect many a Democratic President and is thus a disservice to America albeit a noble one.
Number one priortiy = defeat obungle. After a nominee is selected, forget your petty whining and crying. It would be a shame to see the Republicans act as stupid as the liberwussies.
Perry was pro choice, Perry helped Al Gore invent the internet, Rick Perry was a card carrying Democrat.
Go Rick Go.
Nice to see that Michael finally admits that his father would not pass the ideological purity test of today's "Republican" Party.
I hope it doesn't come down to that, Michael Reagan. Again, I hate voting for the 'lesser of two evils'. But, I know in my heart you're right. No matter who it is, the Repubs better get behind him/her or can you say "four more years for Obama."
Slowly, but surely, we'll be working out of the mess Obama has created for America. I don't even think we can afford Obama for the next year! He's done so much damage to our country to this point. But, in any event, no matter what, we have to get Obama out at all costs!

Artist Ragnar Kjartansson will take part in a gallery talk through the exhibition 50 Years of Icelandic Art at the Venice Biennale now on show at Reykjavik Art Museum - Kjarvalsstaðir. The Icelandic contribution to the 53rd International Art Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia in 2009 was Ragnar Kjartansson's work The End. Kjartansson's exhibition for Venice, The End, featured a tableau vivant of the artist and his model that lasted for the entire six-months of the Biennale, along with a monumental video and music installation. It was presented in the Palazzo Michiel dal Brusa', a 14th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal near the Rialto, which has served as the Icelandic Pavilion since 2007. The Pavilion was transferred into a makeshift studio for the Biennale, Kjartansson relentlessly painted the portrait of a young man posing day after day against the backdrop of the Grand Canal. The young man modeling for him smoked cigarettes and drank beer, while clothed only in a bathing suit. For the exhibition at Kjarvalsstaðir 50 Years of Icelandic Art at the Venice Biennale an excerpt from Ragnheiður Gestsdóttir experimental documentary As if we existed is now on show. Icelandic artists have had their representative at this major international contemporary art exhibition for fifty years but their regular participation did not start until the year 1984. The Venice Biennale takes place once every two years and is claimed to be one of the world's most important forums for the dissemination about the current developments in international art. In the year 2009 seventy seven nations took part in the Biennale and the number is still growing. The talk will take place in Icelandic and is open to everyone.

Amy Quartaroli couldn't figure it out.
On almost every level, her son, Paul, was bright and talented, excelling in sports while also possessing an uncanny ability to problem solve - always thinking outside of the box.
But he was failing in school.
"He struggled with reading, spelling and writing. You could tell he was getting frustrated. School became hard and he was falling behind," she said.
Quartaroli attributed her son's learning deficiencies to earlier ear infections that caused hearing loss, but further testing also revealed an auditory processing disorder, a form of hearing dyslexia that often goes undetected.
Dyslexia, a common neurological disorder that's usually characterized by letter reversals and the inability to decode the written word, has been found to be much more than just a problem with visual processing, said Molly Brown, of the Wisconsin Institute for Learning Disabilities/Dyslexia or WILDD.
The Madison-based institute, which recently opened an office in Milwaukee, uses a multi-sensory approach to remediate reading, spelling and other language deficits.
"Dyslexia is an umbrella category that can affect your auditory processing, visual sequencing and letter recognition," said Brown, who runs the institute's Milwaukee Center.
"The average person with a learning disability or dyslexia reads at a third-grade level and is unable to function fully in society," she said. "WILDD has a track record of raising this by three grade levels in six months."
Instead of using a whole-language approach to reading of the type primarily used in school districts, WILDD teaches a phonics-based method using word analysis and sound structure of language.
Traditionally, early reading involves matching what you see with what you hear, said Ervin Carpenter, the institute's executive director and one of its founders.
"About 85% of the population learns well like that, but there are those children who don't learn that way," said Carpenter, a dyslexic who founded the institute with his wife, Kim.
"We teach students syllables," he said. "There are six syllable patterns that make up the English language."
Carpenter, 61, started the center because of the pitfalls he faced while growing up.
"Back then, they looked at learning disabled kids as just being lazy. I was punished for not being able to read and spell while I was in school. I was sick and tired of being laughed at, so I dropped out," said Carpenter, who joined the military.
It was after he left the military and entered the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh at the age of 32 when his dyslexia was first diagnosed.
"I had a very high intellect, but I just couldn't read or spell above the fourth-grade level," said Carpenter, who would overcome his dyslexia with intensive remedial assistance and graduate with a degree in special education in 1987.
"The institute is a way of paying it forward," Carpenter said. "We have put this together to teach children and adults how to read and spell and get to their own success."
Program instruction - for adults and children - is personally tailored to fit the needs of each student, who receives an initial assessment to determine their educational status.
Amy Quartaroli learned about the program at Paul's school in Pewaukee, where he meets daily with a WILDD instructor during the school day. The 10-year-old, who started the program at the beginning of the school year after lagging behind his classmates for years, is already getting close to being on par with his fourth-grade class.
"It has been amazing," she said. "Now, he will pick up a book and read without being told. He never did that before."
Several children enrolled at the center were misdiagnosed with other learning disabilities, like attention deficit disorder, prior to receiving the correct assessment.
Jamie Thomas' son, Hunter, had been on ADD medication prior to enrolling at the center. He attends twice a week after school.
"There were days when we would sit and fight with Hunter. He would cry while reading. Now, we are fighting with him to turn off the lights. He wants to continue to read," said Thomas, who credited the center with turning her son's life around.
"There is so much support and excitement there," she said. "They are concerned about their reading, but they also want them to succeed in life."

36 year old man | Wilson, NC, USA | Seeking women 25-35 within 50 miles
To enjoy your life, you actually have to live it
I am a hard-working teacher and trainer, I work long hours staying after school for all types of practices and games in high school athletics. I am interested in people who are serious & down to earth. I guess that you could describe me as a mix of introverted and extroverted, meaning that I like to hang out w/ my frieds and do the whole social scene, but I am just as happy reading a good book in front of the woodstove in winter. I am not interested in an ultra high-maintenance women who needs attention all the time, as my career takes a lot of my time. Really, I am looking for somebody to spend my free time with and live life. Being with someone special would make life more complete and happy, and I think fulfilling.
Alumni connections , Camping , Fishing/Hunting , Gardening/Landscaping , Movies/Videos , Watching sports
Baseball, Bowling, Football, Golf, Other types of exercise, Swimming
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Cats
I like Dogs
I was tricked into a cat by my cousin (a vet), I like all animals really, but w/ my busy schedule, a cat does make sense, as I often work late, and it wouldn't be fair to a dog to keep it inside/caged all the time.
I like to travel, but a teachers salary isnt the most conducive to it. Ive been to Germany, Austria, & Switzerland, but mostly travel throughout the US. I end up going to Morehead City/Atlantic Beach quite often.
Barton College, Wilson, NC
I like country and classic rock music, I am a sucker for 80's music. I enjoy watching NCIS & Castle, but love the comedies like Big Bang Theory, HIMYM, etc...
I like to watch football during the season, am not a huge basketball fan, and absolutely love baseball. I like being outdoors and working on a project in my yard, or just sitting back in front of the firepit.
I just finished Killing Lincoln and have started Killing Kennedy. I like to read a lot, so I always have a book or two ready to read.

Yes, Bobby Petrino is still the head coach at Arkansas.There
haven't been any secret meetings with Auburn (at least not yet),
there haven't been any Dear John notes taped inside the players'
lockers (at least not yet), and he hasn't been rumored for any other
job openings (at least not yet). Despite being vilified by NFL
types, and destroyed by an NFL Network piece as the No. 1 coach that
should've stayed in college, Petrino really is a superior head
coach, and he's about to show everyone why.

Lost in all the weeping and gnashing of teeth about
how Petrino left an Atlanta Falcon franchise that fired a head coach
(Jim Mora Jr., who made some off-the-cuff remarks about being interested
in the Washington Huskies head coaching job even though he was the head
man for the Falcons) basically because its feelings were hurt is that he
can punch his weight with any of the superstar coaches in the SEC.
Forget about last year's rebuilding season,
Petrino was 41-9 at Louisville and came close to getting the Cardinals
in the BCS Championship game. He knows how to coach, he knows how to
recruit, and he should know how to make Arkansas one of the hottest
stories of the 2009 SEC season.
While everyone will be focusing on Ole Miss, the new coaching changes at
Auburn and Mississippi State, the expected resurgence at LSU, and the
Alabama rebound from the two losses to end last year, Arkansas has the
ability and the potential to come up with a sneaky-huge year out of the
West with a little bit of work and a lot of breaks ... maybe.
Last year, the retooling Hogs went 5-7 with two of the losses (Ole Miss
and Mississippi State) that would've been wins if not for a few makeable
missed kicks. The three ugly blowout losses all came in a row against
national title-level BCS teams (Alabama, Texas and Florida), and three
of the seven defeats came by a total of seven points. On the flip side,
the Hogs should've lost to both Western Illinois and UL Monroe and ended
up winning all five of their games by a touchdown or less and by a total
of 16 points. So which is it? Is Arkansas just a few tweaks away
from being special, or is it still in a retooling mode and another year
away from being in the hunt for the SEC title? It's probably a little
bit of both considering 18 starters are back and that doesn't include QB
Ryan Mallett, who in a little bit of time should be an NFL-caliber
passer. Forget about an SEC West title with games at Alabama, Florida,
Ole Miss and LSU, but that doesn't mean this team won't have the ability
to bomb away with anyone and get hot for a game or two to get everyone
fired up.The receiving corps is incredibly fast with huge
upside, the running backs, led by Michael Smith, are extremely quick,
the O line should be a little bit better, the special teams will be far
better with former Louisville and Michigan State head coach John L.
Smith coaching them, and the defense is loaded with talent and
athleticism, especially on the front seven. Give it one more
year. In 2010, Mallett and his receiving corps will be unstoppable, the
defense will be loaded up with veterans, and Petrino will have all the
pieces in place he needs. In the meantime, don't be knocked off your
chair when the Hogs pull off one season-changing upset you won't see
coming. (Knock, knock. Who's there? October 17th in Gainesville.)
What to watch for on offense: QB Ryan Mallett. He was one of the
nation's top recruits a few years ago when he was picked up by Michigan,
and now he's ready to be, eventually, the SEC's best passer. He has the
arm, the 6-7 size, and the cock-sure attitude that screams franchise
quarterback. Arkansas will have its most vertical passing game in school
history with a fleet group of young receivers that are just waiting to
bust out and hit home runs. Mallett will make his share of big mistakes,
and the team will lose at least one game this year because he'll screw
up, but he'll also scare the bejeebers out of SEC defensive coordinators
with the way he'll open up the field.
What to watch for on defense: The new defensive backs. The depth
chart for the Arkansas secondary might as well be written in pencil
considering the new blood that's about to invigorate the pass defense.
There's Anthony Leon, a linebacker-sized playmaker who might end up in
the front seven, but could be a devastating, tone-setting strong safety.
The JUCO transfer and cousin of former Washington Redskin, the late Sean
Taylor, was a humongous coup for the program. Fellow JUCO transfer
Rudell Crum could be the team's shut-down, No. 1 corner the second he
sets foot off the bus, while corner Darius Winston was the team's top
recruit and was the best prospect to come out of Arkansas. Everyone
wanted all three of these DBs, and the Hogs got them.
The team will be far better if … the defense can get off
the field. There are several problems that need fixing from the woeful
pass protection to the punt return game to the penalties, but above all
else, the defense has to come up with more third down stops and more
takeaways. The offense will put up huge numbers, even though Mallett
will get sacked around 40 times, but the defense has to be better in big
situations after allowing teams to convert on 42% of their third down
chances and after forcing a mere five fumbles and 11 interceptions.
The Schedule:
Considering the first game is
against Missouri State, Arkansas doesn't really start its season until
September 19th with the SEC opener against Georgia. Follow that up with
a trip to Alabama and Arkansas can either make a huge early statement in
the conference race or be knocked out. Going to Florida and Ole Miss in
back-to-back weeks is as tough as it gets, but things ease up in a big
way with home games against Eastern Michigan, South Carolina, Troy, and
Mississippi State to follow. While Arkansas always plays LSU tough,
going to Death Valley to close out the year isn't a plus.
Best Offensive Player:
Senior RB Michael Smith. Tight end D.J. Williams is
the one the NFL types will be looking at, and will be two inches too
short for their liking, and WR Joe Adams will be the team's new
gamebreaker. But the star will be Smith, the diminutive senior who
overcame off the field issues and a torn hamstring to put together a
1,072-yard season. Extremely fast, he can crank out big plays from
anywhere on the field and he can catch, too, finishing second on the
team with 32 grabs.
Best Defensive Player:
Senior DT Malcolm Sheppard. There were problems all
across the Arkansas defensive front, and Sheppard turned out to be a bit
of a surprise mainly because there were so many other storylines up
front. All Sheppard did was finish second on the team in tackles (68)
and lead the way with 6.5 sacks showing off tremendous interior
quickness and a peerless toughness against the run. He belongs in the
discussion of All-America caliber tackles.
Key player to a
successful season: Junior OTs Ray Dominguez and DeMarcus Love.
The Hog tackles are massive, almost too massive, and while they're built
to pound away for the running game, they need to be better in pass
protection. Arkansas allowed 46 sacks, only Hawaii (57) gave up more,
and with the immobile Ryan Mallett dropping back, the pass protection
has to be far, far better.
The season will be a
success if
... the Hogs get to eight wins. That's the mark they hit in 2007,
Houston Nutt's last year, and this team might be better given a little
bit of time. The schedule is a bear with the brutal SEC road slate along
with a visit from Georgia, so there needs to be at least one big upset,
possibly two, and no slips to ensure a winning season. Eight wins would
be a nice stepping-stone to 2010, when the team should really rock.
Key game:
Sept. 19 vs. Georgia.
It'll be the Arkansas SEC opener while Georgia will be coming off a date
with South Carolina and will have opened up the season at Oklahoma
State. The Hogs will have two weeks to prepare, not to mention the
opening day walk-through against Missouri State, and will look at this
as a statement game to set the tone for the season with a trip to
Alabama to follow.

I know I should be happy my 2wk old sleeps through the night but...
It may change in the next few weeks or he may just be a good sleeper. I'd enjoy it as long as the dr says it's okay.
Mom to 4 on earth and 4 in heaven, and one with another mother.
Loss 3/19/92, 4/06, adoption loss 2/21/08
Our pediatrician said that they shouldn't go longer than 5 hours for the first 4 weeks because sometimes their sleeping mechanism overrides their hunger and they won't wake to eat. I guess if your ped says that's okay then I wouldn't necessarily worry about it, particularly if you're formula feeding.
Enjoy! i am somewhat jealous

Mine doesn't quite go that long...but he does sleep 5-6 hours at night and most of the day I wake him every 4 hourst to eat! We just had our 2 week check up today and he is over his birthweight so my ped said it is more than fine to let him sleep that long at night because he's obviously getting what he needs. As long as your LO is gaining weight and having pees and poops, I think you're golden! Enjoy it! My doctor said today that we don't even look sleep deprived! I'm enjoying the extra sleep for now! :)

Halle Berry is saving her shoes for her daughter because she herself still wears footwear previously owned by her mother that has now come back into fashion.
Halle Berry is saving her shoes for her daughter.
The 45-year-old actress still owns footwear that was given to her by her mother and hopes one day to hand her own pumps down to four-year-old Nahla - whose father is her ex-partner Gabriel Aubry - for when they come back into fashion.
She said: ''I think shoes after something that, through time, will always come back in fashion again. I had shoes my mother gave to me from the 1970s that I wore a few years ago. So yes, I'm thinking of that for my daughter.''
It looks as if Nahla could inherit a huge collection as Halle - who is now engaged to French actor Olivier Martinez - admits she is ''pretty addicted'' to buying shoes.
The 'Cloud Atlas' star always takes good care of her shoes and even has a dedicated room to store them neatly.
She explained: ''I'm pretty addicted. I have thousands of pairs and I have a real relationship with them. I think many women do.
''Shoes are like a good hairdo; they reflect how we feel. If you're feeling sexy, fun, sporty, if you're feeling casual ... your shoes say a lot about you.
''I have a storage room where I keep them all, in their boxes with a picture of each pair taped to the outside. I'm pretty obsessive.''

2011 was a very -- watch out, here it comes -- out-of-this-world year for UFOs. Every month of the year gave us UFO stories to digest, wonder about, or laugh at -- depending on your point of view or belief about UFOs.
Ancient UFOs; scores of videos and photographs; military and government officials offering credible testimony; thousands of pages of previously classified documents; disk and dorito-shaped craft; an official state highway marker erected to commemorate the most widely publicized UFO abduction story in history; petitions sent to the White House asking the Obama administration to release all UFO information; an alleged alien spaceship hiding near the planet Mercury; an ET reportedly photographed standing in a Brazilian rainforest; and a theologian who says religious believers are ready to share a pew with aliens.
These and much more were all there for the taking. With the proliferation of so many video cameras and phone cams, it's not surprising that, according to the Mutual UFO Network -- the largest privately funded UFO research organization in the world -- there were 67 percent more reports of unidentified flying objects in 2011, compared to 2008.
As 2012 looms with the promise of a new year of UFO events -- where believers hope the government will finally acknowledge that some UFOs are extraterrestrial vehicles -- let's step into the wayback machine and re-visit the top 11 UFO stories of 2011.
CHECK OUT THE TOP 11 UFO STORIES OF 2011: (story continues following slideshow)
In early April, the FBI created a new website, The Vault, which gives the public an opportunity to view documents in an online "electronic reading room." Some of the 2,000-plus documents are about UFOs. While the U.S. government has always maintained UFOs don't warrant any serious investigation, documents from the late 1940s indicate FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover's interest in UFOs. Pictured is a 1947 document sent by a Wisconsin agent to Hoover, concerning a small, disc-shaped object found at a fairground that contained a photoelectric cell, electric motor and a propeller. While agents felt it was "made by some juvenile," it's noteworthy that they felt it important enough to inform Hoover about it.
While researching materials for his 2011 book, "A Celebration of Freedom: JFK and the New Frontier," Atlanta history teacher William Lester used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain some previously classified documents that other investigators had also tracked down. He included documents in his book showing how the late President John F. Kennedy was not only interested in UFOs, but he wrote two intriguing memos: one asked the CIA for all UFO files and the other one was sent to NASA expressing a desire to cooperate with the Soviet Union on outer space activities. Both memos were written on Nov. 12, 1963 -- 10 days before Kennedy's assassination. Pictured is the memo JFK sent to the CIA.
In July, the state of New Hampshire erected an official highway marker commemorating the 1961 UFO sighting experienced by Betty and Barney Hill. The marker was placed near the site of where they claimed, under hypnosis, they had been kidnapped onto a strange circular craft in the White Mountains and physically examined by gray-skinned creatures. Theirs was the first such story in the U.S. against which all other UFO abduction tales have been measured.
On Aug. 25, The History Channel presented a provocative UFO special based on the best-selling book "UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go On The Record," by Leslie Kean. The program featured a Federal Aviation Administration executive who revealed how the CIA warned him not to talk about UFOs because the public might panic from the truth. And former Arizona Governor Fife Symington described his own dramatic UFO sighting and he apologized for lying to the media and the public. Pictured is a disc-shaped object photographed over Costa Rica in 1971 by a government mapping aircraft.
March saw the release of 8,500 pages of previously classified UFO files by Great Britain. One set of key documents detailed the UK's attempt in 1978 to derail the country of Grenada's plan to convince the United Nations to form a special UFO study committee. That milestone UFO UN presentation was produced by current Huffington Post writer Lee Speigel (pictured here on the right, counter-clockwise, third person in), who organized a preliminary meeting with UN Secretary-General Kurt Waldheim and military, scientific and psychological experts on July 14, 1978.
As more UFO documents were released by the UK in August, former Ministry of Defense UFO project chief Nick Pope revealed exclusively to The Huffington Post that he was part of an official British policy of ridiculing UFO reports and the people who reported them. Pope said he used "a combination of spin and dirty tricks" to downplay the reports, a policy that he now regrets being a part of.
At the end of January, several videos went viral on the Internet, allegedly taken by different people from different angles showing a UFO that descended from the sky to hover over the Dome of the Rock Islamic shrine in Jerusalem. After several seconds, the glowing white light shot straight up in the air, reportedly to join with other unexplained lights in the sky. At least one of the videos is considered a hoax because it used the same soundtrack as another one and it appears to have been videotaped from a still photograph on a television screen.
In 1969, the U.S. Air Force officially and publicly closed the books on its investigation of UFOs. At the beginning of September 2011, HuffPost writer Lee Speigel contacted the Pentagon to inquire why UFOs were included in a 2008 Air Force procedure manual. Four days later, the Air Force released an updated manual with UFO references deleted. Coincidence? The image above shows the top portions of both the 2008 and 2011 Air Force manuals. See the next slide to view a 1975 document, describing military jets attempting to intercept UFOs.
While the Air Force maintains that it ended its UFO investigations in 1969, according to the above 1975 document (and many other similar ones), a significant number of incidents have involved UFOs (with correlating radar reports) and military jets scrambled to try and intercept the unknown objects with no success.
Did former Soviet leader Josef Stalin recruit Josef Mengele, the Nazi "Angel of Death," to surgically alter children to look like aliens in 1947 as part of a plan to crash a disc-shaped craft outside of Roswell, N.M.? A new, explosive book in 2011 by Annie Jacobsen about the top secret Nevada military installation known as Area 51 suggested this Soviet-Nazi UFO connection to the legendary Roswell UFO crash. While it's generally known that the secret base has been used to develop spy planes and other secret hardware, the UFO lore surrounding the place still captures the imagination of the public.
In September, the White House created "We the People," a site where citizens can petition the Obama administration to respond to many issues of concern to the country. After the first two UFO-related petitions were submitted and raised the required number of signatures (to warrant an official response), UFO believers weren't happy when the White House said there was no evidence of alien life visiting Earth and no evidence that any information is being hidden from the public. In what will certainly be an ongoing saga, more recent UFO petitions hope to result in an eventual official acknowledgement that UFOs are a real, mysterious phenomenon.
An October NBC broadcast of a football game between the Colts and Saints offered viewers something extra. Coming out of a commercial break, a 30-second video spotlighted the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans, including something streaking through the sky behind the church. When the video was slowed down, striking, elongated objects were seen, prompting speculation they were meteors, insects (flying close to the camera lens), or UFOs. See the next slide for the answer.
When the New Orleans video was slowed down, frame-by-frame viewing revealed this rod-shaped object flying behind the cathedral, causing wild speculation on the Internet as to what it could be. Until NBC cameraman R.D. Willis contacted Huffington Post writer Lee Speigel to announce that he had taken the video using a special time lapse photography camera rig, which gives the appearance of objects moving much faster than they are. The UFOs in question, he said, were merely airplanes passing behind the cathedral. But the long shutter exposure of his camera made the planes seem more out-of-this-world. Despite this correct explanation for the short-lived UFOs, some readers have accused Speigel of making it all up and being part of a larger debunking and ridiculing policy. And this recurring UFO theme is what makes the New Orleans story the number one UFO story of 2011.
Wow, a truly amazing year for UFO believers, skeptics and those in-between.
With the first annual Women's UFO Symposium scheduled for May 2012 in Texas, we can't wait to see what else the new year has in store for us.
Keep looking to the skies and collecting those pictures and videos!

Stephen Ministry
This ministry began at Trinity UMC in 1997 and takes its charge from Galatians 6:2 – "Carry each other's burden, and in this way you will fulfill the laws of Christ."Our Stephen Ministers provide one-on-one confidential pastoral support to individuals within our church, other churches and the community. The level of one's faith is never an issue. After a potential care receiver requests help, meets with a Stephen Leader and their issue is deemed appropriate for a Stephen Minister, then one is assigned. The Stephen Minister works with the care the receiver until it is determined no further work is necessary.
In order to be accepted as a Stephen Minister, an individual must undergo all of the following:
- Complete a detailed application
- Have references checked
- Have a background check
- Be interviewed by at least two Stephen Leaders
- Be invited to take the training
- Complete 50 hours of classroom training
- Make a minimum two year commitment
- Be commissioned by the church
- Meet four hours a month for Peer Supervision and continuing education
StephenMinistry training is conducted by Stephen Leaders and outside professionals. Through the training, each individual becomes equipped to provide one-on-one pastoral care to individuals dealing with life issues such as family concerns, loneliness, health concerns, terminal illness, spiritual crisis, death of a loved one, separation/divorce, aging and various loss/grief concerns. This ministry provides emotional and spiritual support during time of crisis, when someone is going through some of life's difficult times or when there is a need to have someone to talk to and know what is spoken is kept confidential.
Confidentiality is an absolute requirement for all Stephen Ministers and second chances are not provided. The name of the care receiver is never spoken or known, except between the assigning Stephen Leader and the assigned Stephen Minister.
