Despite decades of substantial investments by the federal government, state governments, colleges and universities, and private foundations, students from low-income families as well as racial and ethnic minority groups continue to have substantially lower levels of postsecondary educational attainment than individuals from other groups. The State of College Access and Completion draws together leading researchers nationwide to summarize the state of college access and success and to provide recommendations for how institutional leaders and policymakers can effectively improve the entire spectrum of college access and completion. Springboarding from a seminar series organized by the Advisory Committee on Student Financial Assistance, chapter authors explore what is known and not known from existing research about how to improve student success. This much-needed book calls explicit attention to the state of college access and success not only for traditional college-age students, but also for the substantial and growing number of "nontraditional" students. Describing trends in various outcomes along the pathway from college access to completion, this volume documents persisting gaps in outcomes based on students' demographic characteristics and offers recommendations for strategies to raise student attainment. Graduate students, scholars, and researchers in higher education will find The State of College Access and Completion to be animportant and timely resource.

Love Rossi or hate him, this shows that he is still the most talked about person in all of MotoGP. If it wouldn't have been for Marco's unfortunate death, I bet there would have been more stories in this blog about Rossi. Even if they were all about him struggling on the Duc. While I agree that no one is bigger than the sport, Valentino Rossi is definately bigger than anyone in the sport right now.

London Olympics Helped Boost Inward Investment, U.K. Says
May 9 (Bloomberg) -- The London 2012 Olympics helped boost inward investment into the U.K., the government said, citing initial figures for the year to April 2013.
Preliminary data showed the total number of projects over the year rose 4 percent to 1,406 and involved 163,489 jobs, a 45 percent increase.
Prime Minister David Cameron stressed the need for infrastructure projects to get the economy moving when he addressed an investment conference in London today. Britain has yet to recover the output lost during the global financial crisis.

By Nick Thomas
Families are frequently faced with a dilemma during the Christmas season: What to do with pets while out of town on vacation?
Lets face it, sometimes you just dont feel comfortable imposing on a neighbor to take care of your pets.
And as for family, well, could you really relax on the beach in Hawaii knowing that you have left your precious little poodle, Fifi, in the care of Cousin Bob, the over-zealous taxidermist?
While kennels offer an alternative for vacationing pet owners, animals will generally be happier staying at home in their own, familiar environment. So another solution to the vacationing dilemma is to hire a professional pet sitter.
With more than 6o million pet-owning households across the U.S. today, its not surprising that the professional pet-sitting industry has seen tremendous growth in recent years.
But finding a responsible pet sitter isnt always easy. Advertising in the local newspaper is probably not wise.
For example, the following ad: "We need someone to feed our pets while we are skiing in Vermont for two weeks" could easily be interpreted as meaning: "Our house will be vacant, please help yourself to our jewelry, electronics, and Gilligans Island DVD collection."
To find a reliable pet sitter in your community, there are several national pet-sitting organizations with lists of members all across the country.
Pet Sitters International is the largest with thousands of members who can usually provide references from past clients.
Many professional pet sitters will likely be bonded and insured, and may also be required to be licensed, depending on the state. Often, they will have completed a short Red Cross course in pet first-aid.
This is not to say you can expect them to untangle your 15-foot Burmese python who may have twisted himself into a Dutch marine bowline knot or perform mouth-to-mouth on your hamster found floating in its water bowl.
But they will be able to quickly respond to a medical emergency or pet behavior problem and seek veterinary assistance when appropriate.
Most pet sitters will also walk dogs, give medications, and provide playtime to keep an animals routine as normal as possible during their owners absence.
This helps to reduce stress, depression, and separation anxiety for the animals and their vacationing, anxious owners.
Usually, pet sitters will also perform other minor household tasks such as watering plants, collecting the mail, rotating lights, and opening/closing curtains and blinds.
These provide a home with a lived-in appearance and can reduce the risk of burglary.
At your request, they would probably be happy to scatter dirty laundry and food scraps throughout the house to enhance that homey look.
Since pet sitters dont usually charge additional fees for this service, be sensible with requests. Expecting them to re-shingle the roof in your absence is a little unreasonable.
So if a petless Christmas or New Years vacation is in your plans, consider hiring a professional pet sitter. In fact, dont leave home without one.

After the traumatizing 2000 election, lefties started floating the idea of having states allocate their electors proportionally instead of winner-take-all. There was even a whole movement to get states to sign pledges – which many have, all still in effect to my knowledge – to achieve a similar outcome, to give their votes to the popular-vote winner in certain cases.
This movement was aligned broadly, albeit not completely, with the left. You see, at that time they apparently believed all future elections would have dynamics exactly like 2000. Thus, proportional-electors was a pro-left measure!, they figured.
Flash forward to 2012 and the proposal is considered to be "rigging the electoral system" by that same left. The fact that Rethugs would even propose such a thing just proves how bereft of ideas they are!
I'll collect my 2 Consistency Points at this time by pointing out that I was opposed to proportional electors in 2000 and still am today. The (R)s proposing this are being just as silly and short-sighted as those who floated this twelve years ago. I look forward to redeeming those Consistency Points, once I've saved up 10, at my local Chuck E. Cheese in exchange for a plastic ring with a plastic spider on top that is too small for my pinky. In the meantime though, let us just marvel at the whiplash some on the left are capable of: the filibuster is crucial to the Republic! No wait, it's an anti democratic abomination! Winner-take-all states are anti-populist! No, wait, they are necessary for black enfranchisement!
It's as if they think we don't remember things from more than a year and a half ago. Either that or they're all, like, eleven years old, so they don't remember. Maybe the latter in this case.

The "Republicans are rigging the system" meme has really taken flight. IMO, all this about gerrymandering, citizens united, voter id, etc betrays a growing belief on the left that democracy has failed. I figure they will have abandoned it entirely as a governing mechanism by mid-century.
The electoral college is the most reactionary aspect of US elections. Therefore, I predict it will be destroyed for the sake of equality by the progressives, at some point in the future.
It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a leftie to make a policy argument that doesn't boil down to "who whom". That it disadvantages the Rs in the present is sufficient reason to advocate such a policy. If it should become necessary to advocate a different policy in 2016, the media and median voter will surely take no notice.

In 241 her father was appointed the head of the Praetorian Guard by the Roman Emperor Gordian III. In May that year, Tranquillina had married Gordian. She became a Roman Empress and received the honorific title of Augusta. Her marriage to Gordian was an admission by the young emperor of both Timesitheus' political indispensability and Tranquillina's suitability as an empress.

Junior DH Jeff Gardner
April 16, 2013
Box Score | Photo Gallery 1 | Photo Gallery 2
LEXINGTON, Ky. - In-state products Jeff Gardner and Shane Crain had career days at the plate as the No. 8 Louisville baseball team slugged its way to a dominating 12-5 road win over No. 15 Kentucky on Tuesday night at Cliff Hagan Stadium.
With their second straight win over Kentucky in Lexington and their third win in the last four contests in the Battle of the Bluegrass, the Cardinals improved to 29-7 on the season, while the host Wildcats dropped to 24-12 overall.
Gardner, a junior designated hitter from Louisville (Whitefield Academy), matched career highs in hits and RBI going 4-for-4 with four RBI, a home run, two doubles and two runs scored as the Cardinals finished with 15-8 advantage in hits. The home run was Gardner's second of the season, while the pair of doubles pushed his season total to six.
Crain, a Lexington native (Wabash Valley CC/Lexington Christian) set a career high in hits going 3-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored in his return to his hometown. Junior outfielder Coco Johnson (Benton Harbor, Mich./Central Arizona) chipped in going 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI, while junior infielder Ty Young (Coatesville, Pa./Malvern Prep) was 2-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored to lift his team-leading average to .403.
On the mound, junior lefty Cody Ege (Cherokee, Iowa/Washington HS) allowed one run on two hits with a career best four strikeouts in 2.2 innings of relief to earn the win and improve to 3-1 on the season. Ege has a 1.32 ERA and 17 strikeouts in his 13.2 innings of relief and 18 appearances this season.
The Wildcats struck first on Tuesday night as first baseman A.J. Reed connected for an RBI single to right center off Louisville sophomore righty starter Jared Ruxer (Indianapolis, Ind./Lawrence Central HS) to plate outfielder Kyle Barrett for the 1-0 lead in the first.
The Cardinals quickly pulled even scoring a run on two hits against Kentucky starter Kyle Cody in the second. Junior outfielder Cole Sturgeon (Owensboro, Ky./Owensboro Catholic HS) started things when he was hit by a pitch and then moved to second moments later on a balk by Cody. After advancing to third on a single to left by Gardner, Sturgeon scored on an RBI single to center by Crain.
An inning later, Louisville garnered command for good with a five-run frame in the third. After earning a one-out walk and moving to second on a single by Young, senior second baseman Nick Ratajczak (Joliet, Ill./Gulf Coast CC) scored on an RBI single through the left side by Johnson for the 2-1 lead. Later in the inning, Gardner blistered a double over the head of centerfielder Austin Cousino to plate two more. An RBI single by Crain followed by an RBI double from senior first baseman Zak Wasserman (Stevensville, Mich./Lakeshore HS) plated the final two runs of the third for the Cardinals.
The Wildcats answered with a pair of runs in the bottom of the third to cut the deficit in half. After a single by Barrett and a walk to third baseman Max Kuhn, Reed connected for a two-run double to left center to decrease the Louisville lead to 6-3.
Following a scoreless fourth inning, the Cardinals pounded out a six-spot in the fifth on six hits and one Kentucky error for a commanding 12-3 advantage. Sturgeon started the inning with a double to left center before scoring moments later on a moonshot home run to right field by Gardner to end the day on the mound for Cody. That was followed by a single from Crain, who moved to second when Wasserman reached base on a fielding error by relief pitcher Zach Strecker. After moving up on a wild pitch, Crain scored on a RBI single by Ratajczak that lined off the arm of Strecker and ended his day on the mound.
After lefty Dylan Dwyer entered from the UK bullpen, Young greeted him with an RBI single up the middle to plate Wasserman. Johnson then followed with an RBI double on a ball to shallow right field that dropped between two Wildcats allowing Ratajczak and Young to score the final two runs of the inning.
Kentucky added a run in the bottom of the fifth thanks to four walks from the Cardinals and the Wildcats added their fifth run in the ninth inning on an RBI single by pinch hitter Jacob Russell for the final seven-run margin.
Cody took the loss and dropped to 3-2 on the season after allowing eight runs on nine hits in 4.0+ innings of work. Ruxer allowed three runs on three hits in 2.0+ innings while finishing with a no-decision for the Cardinals. Junior righty Dace Kime (Defiance, Ohio/Defiance HS) followed Ege with 2.1 innings of shutout relief recording all seven outs by strikeout to match a career high.
Up next, Louisville returns to BIG EAST Conference action traveling to Queens, N.Y., for a three-game series at St. John's starting Friday at 6 p.m., ET in a game that can be viewed online through ESPN3 at WatchESPN.com. Saturday's game is set for a 2:30 p.m., ET first pitch on CBS Sports Network, while Sunday's finale will start at noon and will also be available for viewing through ESPN3.

Postgame Louisville Notes
- In honor of the victims of Monday's Boston Marathon bombings and in support of the people of the city of Boston, the Louisville baseball team wore its "Patriotic" uniform on Tuesday night. The uniform features an American flag themed Cardinal logo on the jersey and hat.
- The Cardinals' 29-7 mark is one game behind the best record in school history through 36 games trailing only the 30-6 effort of the 2010 team, which went on to set school records for regular season wins (46) and total wins (50).
- With wins in five of the last nine in the series against Kentucky, Louisville has scored 10 or more runs in all five victories.
- With their five-run third inning and their six-run fifth inning, the Cardinals have scored five or more runs in an inning 12 times this season. It marked the fourth time this season Louisville has scored five or more in an inning twice in the same game.
- With 15 hits and 12 runs on Tuesday, Louisville has finished with 10 or more hits in 21 games this season and has scored eight or more runs 15 times so far in 2013.
- The Cardinals improved to 22-0 this season when scoring six or more runs.
- Louisville pitchers combined for 15 strikeouts on Tuesday, matching the Cardinals' second highest total of the season first achieve against USF on Feb. 16.
- Going 2-for-4 on Tuesday, Ty Young earned his team-leading 16th multi-hit performance of the season.
- Coco Johnson finished with three RBI on Tuesday for his seventh multiple RBI game of the season, good for second on the team, while Jeff Gardner's four-RBI performance was his sixth multiple RBI showing in 2013.
- After matching a season-high with four errors in last Tuesday's loss at Western Kentucky, the Cardinals have played error-free baseball in three of the last four games, all wins, and have just one total error in that span. Louisville did not commit an error on Tuesday.
- As has become tradition for the Louisville baseball team under the guidance of head coach Dan McDonnell, the Cardinals visited with patients at Kosair Children's Hospital in Louisville on Tuesday prior to departing for Lexington.

The word seems to be out -- the Ravens are officially going to open the 2013 season in Denver.
Since they can't open at home due to scheduling issues with the Orioles, the Ravens have to hit the road. Jason La Canfora of CBS tweeted the news this morning that the Ravens will meet Denver in a Thursday night game.
That's not exactly a surprise as many had kind of felt this was the game the NFL would want. But that appears to be what it is going to be:
The Ravens will open the 2013 season at Denver in a Thurs night kickoff. Full NFL schedule to be released tonight— Jason La Canfora (@JasonLaCanfora) April 18, 2013
The rest of the NFL schedule is going to be out tonight, so it's going to be interesting to see how the start of the season pans out. Last year, the Ravens played four games in just 17 days, something that appeared to affect the team later on.
The NFL wanted the Ravens to open at home on a Thursday night, but the Orioles already had been scheduled to play a night game, and the details to move the time couldn't be worked out.

Hazel is deeply wise. She holds the secrets of the earth within her. Love her and she'll tell you where to quench your thirst… for water and for knowledge. What's more, she'll bless you with a silver tongue for telling others what you've learned. So it's said. But is there any truth behind the power of our elf Hazel?
Here's what we know for sure: Hazel harnesses the power of the nut. And nuts are powerhouses of nutrition. Eating a handful of nuts a day can help prevent heart problems and weight gain. That's why nuts are key players in many popular weight-loss programs these days.
Would you believe there are 130 hazelnuts in just one of those giant kilogram jars of Nutella? There is also a heap of skim milk and cocoa powder thrown into the mix. How can anything with so much fiber, vitamins C, B, and E, protein, folate, and calcium be anything but good? Well, Nutella has its detractors. For one, there is a large dose of sugar – 11 grams in one tablespoon. And then, there is the whole palm oil thing. This vegetable oil has 41% saturated fat (the bad kind, but just half what palm kernel oil has….) and no trans fats (the worst offender). So maybe palm oil is only half bad? The jury is still out, but I think there could be a place for modest amounts of palm oil in our food. However… health is not the only concern opponents to palm oil have. Over-farming of the rainforest is threatening endangered animals, like the gorgeous orangutan. Our elf Hazel would definitely be sympathetic to this cause!
I just LUV Nutella, though, and I've even used it as an ingredient in my healthiest cookies ever (the recipe is in my book). So what is a nutty orangutan-loving Nutella fan to do? Well, if you have the time and the inclination, you can make your own hazelnut spread. It's not hard if you have a food processor. You get to say how much sugar is enough, and you can simply leave out the palm oil or use olive oil instead.
Vinny's Homemade Hazelnut Chocolate "Nutella"
1 1/2 cup whole hazelnuts 1/4 cup (50 grams ) cocoa (dutch-processed is less bitter) 1 cup skim milk 2 tablespoons olive oil 3/4 cup skim milk powder 2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional, use stevia instead and unsweetened chocolate rather than bittersweet to lower the sugar by half again) pinch salt 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 heaping cup (200 grams) chopped bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, or chips 3/4 cup (125 grams) chopped milk chocolate, or chips
On a rimmed baking sheet, toast the nuts in a 400ºF oven for 10 minutes, or until their skins begin to pop. Shake them up half way through. Then keep an eye on them, because they burn easily. Burnt hazelnuts taste yucky!!! Pour the hot nuts onto an old (but clean) tea towel, gather the corners into a bundle and rub the nuts together like mad. You want to rub off as much of their skins as possible. This is hard work. Maybe that's why the roasted nuts were twice the price! While they're warm, blend the nuts in a food processor until they go from finely ground to pasty. Meanwhile, warm the milk, powdered milk, maple syrup, cocoa, cinnamon, and salt in a small saucepan. Watch it and stir, because the milk can easily burn on the bottom. Remove from heat as soon as it starts to boil. In a glass or stainless steel bowl set over a pan of simmering water, melt the chocolate, stirring until smooth. Take off the heat a little before it's completely melted, because you don't want it to curdle. Add the melted chocolate to the ground nuts and process the mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Add the warm milk mixture bit by bit, and process until the sauce is well blended. It will be more liquid than Nutella, but don't worry. It gets thick when it is thoroughly cool. While it's still warm, you can strain it into jars if you like it smoother rather than nutty. But I like the extra fiber. Makes about 2 1/4 cups. Keep it in the fridge. Vinny served the hazelnut sauce on eggy pancakes and poured some over strawberries. He also uses it in his chocolate cookies, melting moments. The spread works fine without palm oil. Hazel the elf, in her usual charming, understanding, socially conscious, honest and tolerant way… says, "Enjoy!"

- How To Order
Kits, ARRs & RTRs
For the craftsman who wants building satisfaction, a wood Kit has no equal. Projects range from simple skiffs to richly detailed masterpieces. Fiberglass and plastic, however, are excellent alternatives for those who value speed and ease more highly. There are fewer parts; hulls and decks are often pre-joined. ARR (Almost-Ready-to-Run) models may be as much as 80% pre-built and include a motor or engine. RTR (Ready-to-Run) boats add to ARR convenience by including a radio, radio gear, batteries and required items. Assembly can take as long as 1-2 hours – or as little as 5 minutes!
If you enjoy boat racing but don't know how or where to start, organizations such as the North American Model Boat Association and the International Model Power Boat Association offer plenty of helpful hints. Forums – like www.rcgroups.com and www.intlwaters.com – are another great way to get information and connect with other boaters. When you visit Web sites like these, always try to be on the lookout for exciting announcements, videos, membership info and more!
Pick Your Power
While wind power is the only choice for sailboats, powered boats may be run by an electric motor, a glow engine or a gas engine.
Clean and quiet, electric power is ideal for first-time modelers. A brushless electric motor and a rechargeable NiMH or LiPo battery can make a racing boat run for around 4-8 minutes and hit 10-20+ mph speeds. Boats with a single motor and battery – like the AquaCraft UL-1 Superior RTR – are the norm. However, twin-motored boats – such as the AquaCraft Mini Wildcat RTR – are also available.
More experienced boaters may prefer the added punch of glow (nitro) power, as found on the AquaCraft Miss Vegas Deuce RTR. Displacements may range from as little as .049 cubic inches, to as much as .90 cubic inches!
2-stroke gas engines are used to provide larger racing boats with the power they need to deliver thrilling, high-speed fun. Generally, they are around the size of a power plant that you'd find in a leaf blower or a weed trimmer. They're also more complex and require more maintenance than an electric motor or a nitro engine. However, in the long run, they typically cost less to refuel and operate than a nitro engine.
Safety first: a friendly reminder for RC boaters
Never, ever attempt to swim after a stalled RC boat. DO NOT get in the water for any reason to retrieve your boat. RC boats are not designed to act as flotation devices. To retrieve a stalled RC boat, use a fishing reel with a tennis ball tied to the end of the line. Better yet, use a small Jon boat so you can row out and pick up your boat. Remember to use a PFD (Personal Flotation Device) any time you enter your retrieval craft.
Boat Design Made Easy
A sailboat gets its power from the force of the wind. Large sails catch the wind and move the boat in the same manner as a full-size sailboat. R/C sailboats range in size from less than twenty inches in length to 40 inches long. A sailboat's mast can tower up to 79 inches (over 6 feet) above the water!
Airboats/Swamp Buggies
An airboat is powered by an airplane engine and a prop that's mounted high above the stern. Hull bottoms are flat (or nearly so); steering power may come from a water rudder, vanes on the fan, or both.
Powered Scale Boats
A scale boat refers to any Kit, ARR or RTR that reproduces virtually every detail of a full-size boat. While Kits are generally preferred by expert builders, there are also many ARR and RTR Scale Boats available for beginners to enjoy right out of the box. Designed primarily for looks instead of speed, common scale boat features usually include realistic "extras" like planked decks, chrome or brass deck fittings...even cloth flags and ladders!
Powered Sport Boat
Sport boats are the most popular kind of R/C boat – who doesn't want to slice through the surf at blazing-fast speeds? Thankfully, today's R/C world offers many safe, exciting ways to get out on the water.
Racing Boats:
Racing boats are the most popular kind of R/C boat – who doesn't want to slice through the surf at blazing-fast speeds? Thankfully, today's R/C world offers many safe, exciting ways to get out on the water.
Electrics are perfect for beginners because they're easy to control, easy to maintain and the most affordable. All are virtually ready-to-run (RTR), with a Brushed or a more powerful Brushless Motor, radio system, battery and more, so you can get out on the water almost as soon as you open the box. No matter what boat you choose, remember that's it's all about having fun!
Glow, or Nitro-Powered, models are ideal for thrill-seekers looking for a fun way to "step up" their boating skills. Nitro boats can range from easy-to-enjoy RTRs to do-it-yourself kits. Due to their high-performance design, they are more difficult to control and more expensive to maintain than electrics. Yet, many boaters find that all the extra effort is worth it when they reach the finish line first!
Gas-Powered models are the largest, most powerful of all racing boats. Even if you choose an RTR, their 2-stroke engines are more complicated than what you find on a nitro or an electric. However, they are actually less expensive to operate and maintain than a nitro boat. Note: before considering a gas boat, we suggest that you not only know how to keep it in control, but also know how to make any repairs or modifications.
How do you know what boat to choose?
Below are some proven electric boats that customers have told us gave them an excellent start in the hobby.

The SophoMORE Initiative is a student affairs-based program designed to support sophomore students in answering important life questions. Through a broad range of intentional events and programs, the SophoMORE Initiative will assist students in discovering their strengths, developing their talents, and applying skills and strategies to enhance leadership development, academic and career success, and community and social well being. The SophoMORE Initiative guides second-year students through this decisive period with programs focused on self-reflection and discernment.
Why a SophoMORE Initiative? Sophomore year is identified as the critical time when students need to develop a sense of purpose if they are to derive maximum value from their education. If students develop that sense of purpose, and a concurrent sense of fit, then the result is enhanced student engagement and retention. Listed below are some of the programs sponsored by the SophoMORE Initiative:
Welcome back party for new and returning sophomore students, celebrating the end of the first year and kicking off the beginning of the sophomore year.
The Career Development Center and iLIVE will sponsor discussions on career exploration and vocational discernment. Topics include the struggle to "find careers leading to a meaningful life," the balance of work and personal lives, and the importance of community involvment.
On-campus, joint program with Career Development Center and Mission and Ministry where sophomore students have the opportunity to identify their interests, gifts, and talents by using university resources to explore connections between calling, interests, strengths, and meaningful work.
Sophomore students join the Loyola Community for sport and spirit as they cheer on the Wolpack against rival men's basketball teams.
In partnership with iLIVE, the Student Leadership Initiative is a one-day conference open to all Loyola students with special offerings exclusive to sophomores. The conference includes multiple breakout and round table sessions where students will learn networking with professionals and peers.
For more information about the SophoMORE Initiative, contact Heather Roundtree, Director of Co-Curricular Programs, or Tamara Baker, Associate Director of the Career Development Center.

He's willing to go on WBGO 88.3 FM but he refuses to come on 101.5? Could it be he feels safer in front of 6 listeners than 1 million listeners? He has no accomplishments only failures and he knows that would be made blatantly "transparent" in a debate.
Highest taxes in the nation.
Increased sales tax by 16.6%.
Elimination of tax rebates and deductions.
Failed to fully fund the state pension plan
Umpteen politicians indicted under his watch
Appointed commissioners Doria, Madonna, Fox, Davy
Payoffs to CWA President Carla Katz
Secret e-mail negotiations with Carla Katz
Payoff of Rocco Riccio, Katz's brother-in-law
Cuts the NJSTARS program with no grandfathering
Wants to expand the # of pre-schools
Plans to build a tunnel to Macy's basement
Borrowed $3.9 Billion for new school construction
(without voter approval)
He's a loser!
Rutgers should name a building after him for the great public service he provided.
Everyone knows ACORN is as corrupt as the day is long. How many were identified during campaign season for voter fraud? They were registering people 20 to 25 times not to mention how many Disney characters can now vote across the country and now this. Why has the media given this so little if any attention? Charlie Gibson said he knew nothing about this. This is the man we are supposed to listen to to find out whats going on around us?
Acorn should not receive one cent of taxpayer money. You can only imagine how inaccurate the 2010 census would have been with them taking the census.
Can't you see it now, government gives you a sin tax card and every time you purchase alcohol or tabacco it goes into a government computer where they will determine if you smoke/drink in excess and raise your rates. Then they'll have you weigh in twice a year and if you are over the guidelines created by the government your rates will be increased. By the second or third generation they'll have a family health history to use to set your rates based inherited illness or disease (diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, cancer, skin cancer, glaucoma...)
Won't it be great? And to think you will pay the government to run your life.
Government knows whats best for you... Now they are going to make you purchase health insurance or pay a fine. Do you pay this fine every year or is this a one timer? I can't wait to see how the unions like the NEA reacts when school boards tell them that to save taxpayers money the teachers have to go on the government plan.
The people have made it clear they are opposed to the proposed reform along with the government's spending in general and while they might push this plan through expect a massive change in Washington in 2010.
Australia is looking better and better. The nice part is to become an Australian citizen you must show that you have a marketable skill or they won't accept you...no unskilled, unemployable, lazy bums to support.
AG Peter Harvey had all the dirt on George Norcross handed to him and he sat on it and did nothing. On the secretly recorded tapes Norcross boasted how he owned Corzine.
Remember a few months ago after multiple unsuccessful attempts to reach the Governor, the guy called and said he was George Norcross and the next voice he heard was Jon Corzine's?
This is probably the first thing that Codey has said with some merit in his 30 years in office. Sweeney has often announced that he and George Norcross are lifelong friends. How else does a high school dropout with only a GED get to be Director of the Gloucester County Freeholders, State Senator, and Union President? Now Norcross has decided it's time for Joe Roberts to step down so his brother Donald Norcross, another union president, can take his place in the Assembly. Does anyone besides me have a problem with union presidents also being memebers of the state's legislature? Can we say conflict?
Vote out all incumbents...the new form of term limits.
His confirmation will come not a minute to soon. I'm tired of the embarassment of all the state's politicians being indicted and I'm sure his appointment will put an end to that.
Chris Megerian and Claire Heininger as members of the Corzine campaign as well as the Statehouse Bureau don't you think at this point you're beating a dead horse? Repeating the same story, Christie's driving record, over and over and over is getting very old. You should be writing stories about your boss, Jon Corzine's accomplishments, of course to do so you would have to fabricate the accomplishments since the state is worse off now then 4 years ago when he took office. I'd forget to mention the $6 million payoff to the CWA President or the secret e-mails with her, or the payoffs to her brother-in-law, Rocco Riccio, or his appointments of Jeannie Fox, Joe Doria, Michael Madonna, Lucille Davy, His choices for Attorney General, or the two pay raises in one year for judges, or that George Norcross is on tape saying he owns Corzine, or the number of politicians indicted under his ethical watch, or his failure to fund the pension or...
Oh those poor souls. It's a good thing they don't work in the real world where there are no summers off unless you are laid off, no tenure, they'd actually have to know what they are doing and perform to keep their job. No 25 years and out with lifetime health benefits. Oh those poor souls.
If the average ticket was $100 than they raised $85,800. That's enough money to repave .039 miles or 206 feet of NJ highway.
With the condition of New Jersey's roads I'm surprised anyone would risk additional damage to their cars by speeding. Only in New Jersey does road maintenance cost over $2 million per mile. The cost is about 15 times greater than the national average. I wonder why?
The next big story by Claire Heininger and Josh Margolin and the Star Ledger will be that Christie once left the toilet seat up. This petty crap is the best they can come up with on Christie. Enough is enough, it's getting old and nobody cares. Though it seems they think they work for the Corzine campaign committee how about reporting how Corzine has robbed every taxpayer in the state. He promised 40% increases in rebates and instead eliminates them for the majority of the taxpayers all while the property taxes have increased all 4 years. He promised the 16.6% increase in the sales tax sured up the rebates...he lied. He promised ethics reform and transparency in government and the only thing transparent is that he's a bumbling, inept, pompous, union butt kissing fool. He'll suck up to anybody who he thinks will move him forward, first Hillary then Obama and guess what Obama didn't want him. He already has his own bufoon, Joe Biden.
Joe Roberts, Lou Greenwald and Steve Sweeney.... George Norcross' 3 stooges. George plans on replacing Roberts with his brother Donald Norcross. This will mean we have two union Presidents in the legislature, doesn't that present a conflict???
Ralph Marra closing in fast? Pending indictment?
Look at the penalties assigned. The judges should be thrown in prison. Will/did those listed below lose their pensions?

I guess you didn't hear, since this $5.5 million property is owned by the Libyan government they pay no property taxes. I'm sure the guy living next door in the $3 million shack paying $58,000 a year isn't real happy.
Tear it down and replace it with COAH housing.
Sounds like Lisa jackson is pointing that she, Lisa Jackson, was incompetent and failed to do her job at a state level so she was promoted to the federal level.
I was always told people are promoted to their level of incompetence but in this case she surpassed her level of incompetence.

A friend posted this item on living sustainably from Sustainable Kentucky blog on Facebook with the caveat that she wouldn't consider step #55, so of course, I had to see what #55 was.
I'm not doing that either.
Some of the ideas are basic: Start reading labels, adjust your thermostat, stop using plastic bags and bottles, change to CFL light bulbs and the three Rs, of course.
Others are more interesting:
- #3 Chart your chemical intake for one day; literally write down everything chemical you put in or on your body. Then start eliminating them, one at a time.
- #27 Plant a garden and #12 compost. The two go hand in hand.
- Then learn to #43 can, freeze, seal or dry the harvest from your garden.
- #52 Learn to sew. #8 Buy second-hand clothing from consignment shops, and other places to find used clothes.
- Here's a painful one for lots of folks: #65 quit eating out. Cook at home. You'll save a bundle and be healthier for it.
- #67Avoid things packaged in Styrofoam and plastic.
- #72 Eat seasonally and get to know your #75 local farmers.
- A great one, if you can find such people: #68 Vote for candidates with good environmental records.
Oh, and #55?
"Become a nudist. Less clothes purchased from sweatshops, less energy and water wasted on laundry, less chemical exposure on your body, and more vitamin D, too."
Check the list out and see what you can do. Have more ideas? Post a comment here or send me an email.

LAS CRUCES, N.M.—The New Mexico State track and field team prepares to wrap up the 2014 indoor regular season when they travel to Lubbock, Texas, to compete in the Red Rider Open on Feb. 14.
NM State comes off a successful New Mexico Collegiate Classic (Feb. 8), where several Aggies finished in the top 10 in their respective races.
Junior Diana Hawk finished in the top 10 in both of her races. She finished ninth in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:19.56, then finished third in the 1-mile run with a time of 5:00.86.
Hawk is looking to set the school record in the 1000-meter run at the Red Rider Open, which is held by former Aggie Courtney Schultz at 2:55.09. Hawk is currently ranked third all-time for the Aggies with a time of 3:03.73.
The Aggie underclassmen continued their improvement and were led by Paige Patterson, who competed in the 200-and-400-meter dash as well as the 4x400-meter relay. She finished first for the Aggies and sixth overall in the 400-meter dash with a time of 57.37. She also helped the relay team to a sixth-place finish with a time of 3:52.37.
Freshman Akuadasou Ezenyilimba finished 10th in the 20-pound weight throw with a distance of 14.90m (48-10). She was the top finisher for the Aggies in the event.
Fellow freshman Shaniece Prevot competed in the 600-and-800-meter run. In the 800-meter run, Prevot finished seventh with a time of 2:18.94, which places her eighth all-time for NM State.
Sophomore Latrice Brooks led the Aggies in 600-meter run and finished fourth overall with a time of 1:36.00. She also led the team in the 800-meter run, where she finished sixth at 2:17.44.
The Aggies have next week off then travel to Moscow, Idaho for the 2014 WAC Indoor Championships on Feb. 26-28.
