New data was released last month detailing the tremendous impact repeated sweeps have had on funding for children's programs since 1999. The KEY Fund, which would have a balance of approximately $200 million had all funding promises been honored, will instead reach a record low of only $140,000 by fiscal year 2017 because lawmakers chipped away at the fund year by year to use it as a temporary budget stopgap. We have nearly – and likely permanently – depleted this crucial source of funding for children's programs. These short-term decisions have devastating long-term consequences to both our kids and our economy.
This is an email posted by Kansas Action for Children, a non-profit, non-partisan organization committed to improving the lives of Kansas children and families by providing comprehensive data, advocating for sound public policy and collaborating with lawmakers. . I am forwarding it to you so that you can see how badly our Kansas legislature treats our children.

Lake Louise and the Aussies
When we came downstairs for dinner that night, we saw a lovely, little trout pond in the middle of the lobby. A man sat on the rim apparently tickling the undersides of the trout. When he saw us watching him, he asked if we wanted to bet he could catch one. We agreed on a drink for whoever won.
Shortly after that, a fish swam across his hand. He seemed to rub its belly with his middle three fingers. To our amazement, the fish lay calmly in the man's hand. The fellow lifted the relaxed, unmoving trout out of the water.
We were on our honeymoon at the Chateau Lake Louise in Canada. The man, an Australian, told us he had hypnotized 'the little mate. ' He lowered the quietly resting fish back into the water, and it swam away unharmed.
We came to know this person and his traveling companion, (though their names now escape me.) We paid with drinks all around and ate dinner with them for several nights. They told us they had just come from London where they had been presented to the Queen, and were traveling across Canada selling diamonds when they needed cash.
We didn't believe a word of it, but we countered with extolling the grandeur of the Kansas City Steak. Though we exchanged addresses, we never expected to hear from them again. To our surprise, they kept in touch with cards each Christmas.
Several years passed. When my mother and father planned a trip to Sidney, I suggested they look up our two 'mates,' and wrote the men telling them where and when my parents would arrive.
This is what my mother told me. She and Dad were met by a uniformed chauffeur driving a Roils Royce. They were taken to a lovely estate overlooking the ocean, with manicured grounds stretching from the mansion to the sea. Their host, the fish tickler, greeted them. He and his wife treated my parents royally with drinks, hors d'oeuvres and dinner. Then they drove my parents on a guided scenic tour of Sidney before taking them back to their hotel.
A year went by. The lord of the manor, (I still can't remember his name) came to Kansas City on business. He only had time for dinner he said, but he definitely wanted to try one of those Kansas City steaks. We took him to the best steak house (back then) in town, the Golden Ox. He said he'd come to visit and perhaps buy Manor Bakery, one of the largest bakeries in the United States.
Turned out what they'd told us was all true. Our Lake Louise 'mates' could not only hypnotize fish. They had been presented to the Queen, and they did sell diamonds for cash across Canada. Little did we know they owned the largest bakery in all of Australia.
Grossmutter's Easy Chocolate Fudge Pie
Clayton Barnett's grossmutter was a fantastic cook. Here's a mouthwatering, super-easy recipe she called Chocolate Fudge Pie. Makes its own crust and contains no partially hydrogenated oil.
Melt together 2 squares bitter chocolate and ¼-pound butter
Two mixed eggs
1-cup sugar
Pinch of salt
1-teaspoon vanilla
(this will be fairly thick)
Pour into well-buttered 8″ pie tin. (9″ will work). Clayton's grossmutter poked little tiny holes in the bottom to let out the steam, but no holes work just fine.
Bake at 300 to 325 degrees for 1 hour. Test after 45 minutes by inserting a knife and if it comes out Not Quite Clean, it is fudgy and done.
Whip up a small container of heavy cream with about ¼ cup of sugar until cream stands in peaks. Cover pie with whipped cream. Decorate with shavings from a square of bitter chocolate.
Perfect for parties or to take to someone's house if you are asked to bring dessert.
PS: If you want some more of Grossmutter's scrumptious recipes write me here or at firstname.lastname@example.com
Did you get one of them? A notice that you've been furloughed—you and 24,199 other non-essential Kansas government workers—at least until our legislators (and the governor) pass some kind of legislation to help you out, or approve a budget?
If your workplace is controlled by Governor Brownback, which includes state schools, state medical facilities, and many other state agencies, you can kiss your paycheck goodbye until further notice. To bad if you need the money to buy food or pay the rent.
And what does it do to your self-esteem—to be categorized as 'non-essential?' Kansas University Chancellor Gray-Little said that term has nothing to do with the value of an employee or position, so that should make you feel better.
Dollars and cents-wise, your paycheck has to do with taxes. Democrats want to raise taxes, moderate Republicans want to broaden the tax base, and right-wing Republicans want to cut taxes. It may be more complicated than that, but no matter. Our elected officials have to find a way to fix the state's $400,000,000 deficit.
And by the way, did you know that in Kansas, ninety days are scheduled for legislative sessions? Each extra day costs the state $40,000 and Saturday was the 107th day. That's $680,000 that could be used to pay some of you non-essential workers.

There is a reply option "link" located in the review area. Click on the reviews link on the left hand side of your profile, you'll see the option there to reply.
Yikes, that was pretty brutal Wally of your client to leave you such a low review especially for only $7000 difference in appraisal which is totally out of your control. Get more reviews and your overall ranking will improve. Don't let this one client get you down. Some people are just miserable no matter what.
Hi Wally, I'm new to this website myself, still learning how to make the most of it. As a "Premier Agent" it allows me to log into my "Agent Hub," clicked on Profile, then on the left pane found >Reviews. On that page I found a link right beneath each review summary, "Respond to Review."
I'm curious to see how this is resolved. Seems to me this basic functionality should be allowed for all users.

Money quote: "I don't take much issue with the quarterbacks listed or even the order…. but his reasoning and perpetuation of the same, tired 'frat guy' persona is a little over the top."
Yep. I totally went over the top with that persona.

DEFINITION of 'Law Of Large Numbers'
A principle of probability and statistics which states that as a sample size grows, its mean will get closer and closer to the average of the whole population. The law of large numbers in the financial context has a different connotation, which is that a large entity which is growing rapidly cannot maintain that growth pace forever. The biggest of the blue chips, with market values in the hundreds of billions, are frequently cited as examples of this phenomenon.
BREAKING DOWN 'Law Of Large Numbers'
As an example, assume that company X has a market capitalization of $400 billion and company Y has a market capitalization of $5 billion. In order for company X to grow by 50%, it must increase its market capitalization by $200 billion, while company Y would only have to increase its market capitalization by $2.5 billion. The law of large numbers suggests that it is much more likely that company Y will be able to expand by 50% than company X.
The law of large numbers makes logical sense. If a large company continues to grow at 30-50% every year, it would eventually become bigger than the economy itself! Obviously, this can't happen and eventually growth has to slow down. As a result, investing in companies with very high market capitalization can dampen the potential for stock appreciation.

Hall & Woodhouse
We say
Dorset brewers Hall & Woodhouse (of Badger ales fame) took over the old Bonhams auction house in 2010 and turned it into their flagship gastro-pub. They've done a fine job, keeping a pub-area downstairs, a more formal restaurant on the first floor, and creating a rather fabulous roof terrace for al fresco drinking, with views over central Bath. The food's quality British, with sharing 'pantry plates' a nice take on the old Ploughmans, and the beers are good, as you'd expect, including draft Badgers and tanglefoot, Hofbrau and Stowford Press cider. There's a decent wine list, too, and free wi-fi. Kids welcome.

Volvo Rents acquires Excel Rentals of California
Volvo Rents on Dec. 1 announced its acquisition of Excel Rentals, a two-location construction equipment rental company based in California, with stores in Temecula and San Jacinto. The centers are located at 28115-A Del Rio Road and 1005 South State Street, respectively.
The Temecula Volvo Rents location is currently open, while the San Jacinto location will be opening in the first quarter of 2012.
This is the latest move as part of the company's recent surge of nearly 50 acquisitions in the last 12 months, lifting its North American total to more than 80 stores. Volvo Rents now operates six stores in California. The other rental centers are located in Sacramento, Bakersfield, Merced, and Salida.
Michael Crouch, vice president of business development for Volvo Rents, says he is confident that the Excel Team will find great success with the brand in California.
"Lynn Ladenes is truly an industry veteran and Excel's long-time presence in Southern California adds to our strategic growth," Crouch said in a written statement from Volvo Rents. "Excel anchors the footprint of the West Region for Region VP Tim Herzog and his Staff in the area."
While construction activity has declined from mid-2000 levels, the heavy equipment rental business is growing. Crouch noted that he sees "a secular shift" from contractors renting about a third of their equipment to leasing 50 percent or more, adding that he believes the trend will continue to accelerate in the coming year.
In addition to Volvo Rents' expanding line of Volvo compact equipment — such as backhoe and skid steer loaders, compact wheel loaders, compact excavators, and compaction equipment — the rental center carries a comprehensive line of essential equipment and tools for the construction, commercial, industrial, and homeowner markets. The focus is on daily, weekly, and monthly rentals.
"The Volvo name inspires confidence worldwide and will no doubt elevate our stores to the big leagues," Ladenes said in the statement. "As a member of the global Volvo family of business, the stores will have access to some of the most advanced equipment, technology, and marketing in the world."
The store's hours are Monday-Friday, 6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. The company offers 24-hour service, every day of the week.
Volvo Rents of Temecula can be reached by calling 951-695-4802.
Inquiries can be directed to Mike Crouch via email@example.com.

AG says Windham police justified in October shooting
WINDHAM - The Windham police officers who shot and wounded Grant Hebert in October were justified in using deadly force, Attorney General Michael A. Delaney said Thursday.
According to Delaney, the 21-year-old Pelham man:
-- Led police on a high-speed chase 4 1/2 minutes down residential streets in the early morning hours of Oct. 28;
-- Drove his Hyundai Tiburon at 90-plus mph on Lowell Road in Windham;
-- Crashed the vehicle through a wooden fence;
-- Rammed a Pelham police cruiser and drove across a front yard to re-enter the road;
-- Headed straight for a group of uniformed police officers.
Pelham Officer Eugene Stahl and Windham Police Officers Shane Mirisola and Christopher Van Hirtum were yelling commands to stop when Hebert drove toward them, Delaney said in the news release.
"Mirisola then fired several rounds from his semi-automatic sidearm toward the car's front windshield. As the car continued to accelerate toward him, Mirisola was forced to dive out of the way to avoid being struck. Van Hirtum then fired a second round of shots at the moving car.
"It was only after the second volley that the car's engine stopped revving," Delaney said in the news release, which noted that Stahl had also fired at the vehicle.
Hebert surrendered to the police shortly before 2 a.m.
"I'm sorry," he reportedly told officers. "I didn't want to get in trouble again."
Hebert, who had been charged with marijuana possession five months earlier in Pelham, had a month of probation remaining, according to Delaney.
Immediately after his arrest, he was taken to Parkland Medical Center, where he was treated for small bullet wounds on his calf, scalp and upper back.
Hebert was later charged with multiple felonies, including attempted first-degree assault, two counts of reckless conduct and three counts of criminal mischief.
He also faces three misdemeanor charges of aggravated driving while intoxicated, driving while intoxicated and disobeying a police officer.

A year ago, the Lugoff-Elgin boys' tennis team got their first taste of post-season competition as the Demons played their way into the state class 4A tournament.
As a former pitcher, Randy Stokes more than appreciates what he has seen and received from his throwers through the first seven games of the season.
Sometimes, you just tip your hat to an opponent and live to fight another day.
Playing in a pair of extra inning games, Lugoff-Elgin got more than it bargained for in last week's Carolina Ale House Classic baseball tournament.
New coach. New season. New attitude.
In Wednesday's edition of the Chronicle-Independent, the final score of the South Carolina High School League's 4A 220-pound state championship between Lugoff-Elgin senior wrestler Allen Jenerette and Nate Meagher of Lexington was incorrect.
Calling it a departmental, rather than an individual honor, Lugoff-Elgin High School's Scott Jones was recently named as the Region 4-4A Athletic Director of the Year.
Calendars can be very useful to coaches.
With no playoff spot on the line and with this being the final game of her team's season, Lugoff-Elgin girls' basketball coach Von Duncan had one piece of advice before her team took to the court to meet visiting Irmo on Friday.
For the better part of one half, you would have been hard-pressed to find anyone in the Lugoff-Elgin gym who would have told you that visiting Irmo was playing like the nation's 23rd ranked boys basketball team.
This is hardly the time for a hiccup and the Lugoff-Elgin wrestling team may have avoided one on a night in which they were not at full strength.
West End, N.C. --- Kelli Murphy, a junior at Lugoff-Elgin High School, was named the 2012 Richard S. Tufts Junior Girls Player of the Year by the Carolinas Golf Association.
Had it been a game of craps, Lugoff-Elgin would have rolled snake eyes.
There would have been much easier circumstances for Lugoff-Elgin assistant boys' basketball coach Garrett Knight to have made his head coaching debut than the one he found himself in on Tuesday.
Page 19 of 35
This week has a 1989 feel to it for first-year Lugoff-Elgin head football coach Matt Campbell.
LEXINGTON -- More than half the high school football teams in the state of South Carolina had one big enemy playing against them on Thursday night ...

A former minister of police in South Africa's apartheid regime has again washed the feet of people he says he wronged while head of one of the most feared arms of the State - but this time they were apartheid's 'foot soldiers' themselves.
A South African church suspended in 1982 from the World Alliance of Reformed Churches for its support for apartheid is "still not ready for readmission", a meeting of the grouping's executive committee in Geneva has been told.
A Methodist bishop in South Africa, who runs a shelter for people fleeing from his country's northern neighbour, wants police here to stop arresting Zimbabweans now that the law concerning their visas has been changed.
A senior South African Roman Catholic cleric has called on the newly-elected African National Congress government, led by Jacob Zuma, to go all out in its efforts to eradicate poverty, HIV and AIDS throughout the country.
Desmond Tutu has re-iterated his belief that corruption allegations against the new president should have been tested in court, but remains hopeful for politics in South Africa.
As South Africa prepares for its national elections on Wednesday 22 April, many grassroots organisations in South Africa plan to boycott it in protest, reports UK development agency War on Want.
Bishop Mvume Dandala, an opposition candidate in the South African presidential contest, has told the BBC he would reopen a corruption case against Jacob Zuma if elected.

Great selection of beer on tap as well as in bottles. The food here is not to shabby either. Gotta try the artichoke dip its bomb. Say "Hello" to West if he's around, and he might even show you a trick or two.
Fabulous new am omlet menu.by liz_at_tahoe on 07/12/2006
Our local favorite. The owner is back and so is the quality, hospitality and good food. The new omlet menu offers a great selection of interesting new omlets, try the Irish, it's our favorite. The shepard's pie and seafood pie also top the list of lunch/dinner favorites. Three settings to suit your mood: the pub with it's bar, tvs; the indoor cafe setting and the enclosed outdoor patio cafe and bar. We love the place for casual dining and entertaining guests.

'UNiTEn STATES O. S. LEAVITT, OF MAYSVILLE, KENTUCKY.
IMPROVEMENT IN MACHINERY FOR DRAWlNG HEMP AND PARTING ITS FIBERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 7,668, dated September 24, 1850.
' Machine for Parting or Separating the Fibers of Flax or Hemp, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1 isa plan Figs. 2 and 3, elevations of the right and left hand sides, and Fig. 4 a longitudinal vertical section.
The same letters indicate like parts in all the figures.
The object of my invention is to reduce the fibers of slivers of flax or hemp to a nearly uniform length by breaking the long fibers contained in such slivers; and to this end the principle or character of my invention, which distinguishes it from all other things before known, consists in combining a rotating cam or cams with two sets of holding lluted rollers, between which the sliver or slivers pass, and by which it or they are held; the second set of fluted rollers, which deliver the said sliver or slivers, being geared to rotate with greater velocity than the first set.
. In the accompanying drawings, a represents a suitable frame, which may, however, be varied at pleasure; and b b b b, a set of fluted rollers, consisting of four. The first three are arranged in a horizontal plane, and the fourth in a vertical plane, overone of the three, which may be called the driving-roller, as it receives motion from the drivingshaft cby atrain of wheels, d of g h i. As the flutes of the rollers mesh into one another, they all receive motion from the driver. The fourth roller is pressed onto the first or driven by springs j j, and the second and third, which have their journals in the same slots of the frame, are pressed toward each other and the first by springs k is. The slivers of hemp 21 pass through holes in a'plate, 7c, thence down between the third and second rollers,up between the second and first, and thence out between the first and fourth. By this means the slivers in passing through are firmly held by the flutes of the series of rollers. The slivers pass along each between two vertical studs to another series of rollers, m m m m, arranged and mounted like the first set, but in a reversed position, and deriving motion from the driving-shaft by a train of wheels, (I. e f p, so proportioned relatively to the gearing of the first set of rollers that the second set shall rotate with a slightly faster motion than the first to keep a constant pull on the slivers. Between the stud-pins and the second set of holding-rollers there is a horizontal shaft, g,
which carries cams r 1", (one or more for each sliver,) so that, as the slivers pass through between the two sets of holdingrollers, which by the difference in their motions draw or stretch them out, the cams as they rotate come in contact with the slivers, and by bending them out of their line of motion stretch them so much as to break the fibers, which are so long as to extend from one to the other set of holdingrollers. In this way the fibers are so reduced and equalized in length in the slivers as more readily to draw out in the process of spinning, and hence produce more perfect and even threads than by any other known mode. Back of the second set of holding-rollers there is a pair of fluted delivery-rollers, s s, which receive motion by a belt, if, from a pulley, a, on the arbor of the driving-roller of the second set.
If desired, the two sets of rollers can be made adjustable relatively to each other, so as to vary the distance between them by making the frame in which one set of rollers are mounted movable on the mainframe.
It will be obvious that the arrangement of each setof rollers and the form of the cams may be varied without changing the principle of my invention, as the object is to have the rollers so arranged and formed that in carrying the slivers through they shall not permit them to slide, but exert a drawing motion on them, and the cams have an intermittent action upon the slivers to give the required pull to break the fibers, which are of such length as to be held at the same time by both sets of rollers, and therefore strikers having areciprocating motion to strike the slivers may be substituted for the cams, and would be the equivalent thereof.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
The employment of two sets of holding and drawing rollers, substantially as herein specified, in combination with a rotating cam or cams, or the equivalent thereof, for each sliver, in the manner and for the purpose substantially as described.

SYC Closed Thursday, January 8
Columbus City Schools has announced that they will be closed tomorrow, Thursday, January 8, due to predicted severe weather conditions.
SYC will also be closed on January 8.
Welcome to the website of the School for Young Children in Columbus, Ohio. Our program was founded in 1969 as a part-time preschool program. Our philosophy has remained consistent through the years; that children be allowed to develop at their own pace in an atmosphere of free play enriched with a variety of creative materials and the support of teachers who respect them as individuals.
As a community outreach program of the First Unitarian Universalist Church, we are a welcoming school--we do not discriminate upon the basis of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, economic status, or cultural background of parents or children.
Columbus City Schools has announced that they will be closed tomorrow, Thursday, January 8, due to predicted severe weather conditions.
SYC will also be closed on January 8.
Dear Friends & Family… we appreciate your support of the School for Young Children. SYC is a unique place; we teach and support children in their emotional and social development through play, their primary language.
SYC has a scholarship fund for families who otherwise cannot afford to send their children to preschool. The money we receive comes from your donations and our annual auction. If you are able to donate to help the scholarship fund, please click on the Donate Button below. The full amount of your donation is tax-deducible and will go entirely to the scholarship fund.
With your support, SYC can continue to help children who would not otherwise have the opportunity to discover the joys of learning through play.
Thank you, The SYC Family
I took over the Office Manager job at SYC in 1991 when my youngest child was in first grade. I expected to stay until he began high school.
Well…he's 31 now.
I so enjoyed the people—my coworkers and getting to know the SYC parents—and the job turned out to be a terrific fit for my skills, for my personality and for the 15 years of my life that entailed a lot of elder-caregiving, that my plan to leave SYC before retirement age very happily flew out the window.
I'm both excited and a little sad to have decided that this will be my last year at SYC. My husband Lee has been retired for 7 years, we're wanting to have a little more time and flexibility for traveling before we require eldercare ourselves!
Holly Adams, who has been working with me for 3 years will be running the office single-handedly next year. But you probably haven't seen the last of me because I'll be volunteering to help her whenever she can stand to have me around!
…Adele Stratton, Office Manager
When I think about my time at SYC, it's been so much more than a job. I started in 1975 as a parent who loved hanging around as a volunteer because it taught me so much about parenting. When I was officially hired as a teacher in 1976, I started learning about child development and became interested in my own personal growth and development.
Being on the staff of SYC has always been the perfect place to discover your own creativity and interests. The staff always felt like the most nurturing family there could ever be. When Jan Waters told me that she wanted me to become the director, she said "Start working on your degree." I had always hated school but I gulped and enrolled. I never would have gone back without that push and ended up loving being an adult college student. As director I really enjoyed being the support person for the teachers. I can't imagine what my life would have been like without SYC.
I have decided to step down from being the director at the end of this school year. Susan Roscigno and Amy Rudawsky will be the Co-Directors and will both continue teaching. Susan and Amy have been working with me for several years in the office now and both are dedicated to our SYC philosophy.
But I'm not leaving SYC yet. I will be staying on as the Program Consultant so that I can continue being in that support role that I love; I'll just have fewer hours and more trips to Florida along with it.
Changes are always challenging and different people bring different talents with them, but I feel confident that SYC will continue to be a place that nurtures growth and development for everyone.
..Stephanie Rottmayer, Director

Election '98; Counting Winners and Losers
Published: November 5, 1998
It was an Election Day that had a bit of everything. Senate bullies like Alfonse D'Amato and Lauch Faircloth were humbled. Earnestness triumphed in forms ranging from bland (George Pataki) to the slightly nerdy (Russell Feingold). Some sons (Skip Humphrey) were setting, but some (see Bush, George W., and Bush, Jeb) were rising. A party long regarded as being on life support (the Democrats) came tap-dancing out of intensive care. A nation that seems never to weary of seeing Newt Gingrich get his comeuppance watched him pile chips on the impeachment card and then let Hillary Rodham Clinton sweep them off the table.
The question, of course, is what lessons to draw from this variegated show so full of suspense, upsets and reversals of party fortune. That is no simple matter, for a midterm election lacks the focusing prism of a Presidential contest. This was an election that touched on power alignments between and within the parties, on voter attitudes, on candidates for the new millennium, on campaign finance and, of course, on impeachment.
Like all midterm elections, this one occurred under the shadow of its most prominent non-candidate. The paradox of Bill Clinton's personal flaws and political resilience may never be fully explained, but this campaign season documents it anew. Although some Democrats shunned him, Mr. Clinton made 130 appearances, and Mrs. Clinton, often claiming the more high-profile spots, made about 100. A Democratic disaster would have made them pariahs within their own party. Now they emerge with as much clout as could be summoned for a White House with such a troubled history.
Mr. Gingrich is thinking wishfully when he insists there is no message about impeachment to be gleaned from the G.O.P.'s loss of five House seats and key Senate races. The House results, in particular, suggest that the public has done a sophisticated job of balancing its disapproval of Mr. Clinton as a person and its desire for continuity and a Congress that works. By reducing the Republican majority in the House, the voters gave Mr. Clinton the leverage to shop for a censure deal. The chairman of the Judiciary Committee, Henry Hyde, may be in a stronger position to stand up to Mr. Gingrich now and also to demand that Kenneth Starr, the independent counsel, deliver all the evidence he plans to release once the hearings resume. Mr. Starr, for his part, would be deeply foolish not to see the public impatience expressed by the election results.
Mr. Hyde has said that the outcome of the impeachment process must be backed by a public majority. The overall message of this election and the accompanying polls is that a two-thirds majority has already congealed. It wants a formal condemnation of Mr. Clinton for lying under oath and demeaning his office. But it also wants him to continue in office and for the Republican Congress to engage him on issues that stirred the voters.
The Candidates
For conservatives, this election may come to be regarded as a stylistic watershed. The generation of ''Contract With America'' warriors who came roaring into power four years ago is already going out of fashion. The new trend is on the warm side of mellow. The public rewarded Republicans who were in touch with their inner environmentalist, and shunned those who crusaded for anything more disruptive than putting computers in the classrooms.
Former Representative Robert Dornan of California, a ripsaw reactionary, was trounced in a comeback bid. Gov. Fob James of Alabama showed that even in the Bible Belt it is possible to thump the Good Book too hard. After losing the Florida governorship four years ago as an ideological conservative, Jeb Bush won this time by defending battered women and promising to restore ''compassion'' to welfare services for children. Jeb's brother George W. pioneered this sort of politics in Texas, where he won re-election as Governor and the status of undeclared Presidential front-runner. In short, these Bushes ran full bore on the ''kinder and gentler'' theme that their father talked about in his 1988 acceptance speech, but never pursued consistently.
The idea that voters are rewarding candidates who display good manners and an ability to play well with others does not explain Minnesota, where the electorate rejected the sons of Walter Mondale, Orville Freeman and Hubert Humphrey and settled on Jesse (the Body) Ventura, a former professional wrestler. Governor-elect Ventura does, however, come from a profession where sudden transformations from villain to hero are an everyday occurrence. He too may have no trouble moving from body slams to a thousand points of light.
The Voters
In many recent elections the public, pollsters and commentators have gotten used to outcomes determined by the militant Republican core and by the wedge issues of the Christian right. Something different happened on Tuesday. Some key races were swung by moderate women and traditional Democratic minority groups and by middle-income suburban voters who had been behavioral Republicans. This emergent coalition may be impermanent, but it overwhelmed the faction animated by school prayer and flag-burning.

Ever since I was old enough to appreciate them, I have enjoyed the Peanuts stories by the late Charles Schulz. Being young, it took me a while to realise that the cartoons, and particularly what the characters did or said, were not really aimed at children. The characters were just vehicles for Schulz's observations on life, whether it was the misfortune that seemed to dog Charlie Brown, or the frustrated Lucy who could never quite catch Schroeder's eye.
I always had an empathy with the beleaguered protagonist of Peanuts. Someone would make an odd comment or say something unacceptable (to him), and there he'd be, shaking his head. To this day, whenever I encounter something particularly confounding, I think of Charlie Brown.

DMZ - demilitarized zone
(pronounced as separate letters) Short for demilitarized zone, a computer or small subnetwork that sits between a trusted internal network, such as a corporate private LAN, and an untrusted external network, such as the public Internet.
Typically, the DMZ contains devices accessible to Internet traffic, such as Web (HTTP ) servers, FTP servers, SMTP (e-mail) servers and DNSservers.
The term comes from military use, meaning a buffer area between two enemies.
