American Politics
Chapter 6: Public Opinion, Political Socialization, and the Media
Public Opinion
• Aggregate of individual attitudes or beliefs shared by some portion of the adult population
– No one public opinion; many different "publics"
– Key role in policymaking
• A source of power in dealing with other politicians
• Helps candidates identify issue concerns
– Policy leaders respond to changes in public opinion about 2/3 of the time
– Sets limits on government action through public pressure
• Consensus opinion – general agreement on an issue
• Divisive opinion – polarized between two quite different positions
Figure 6-1: Consensus Opinion
Figure 6-2: Divisive Opinion
Qualities of Public Opinion
• Intensity – strength of a position
– intense opinions often generate public action
– intense minority can often win over a less intense majority
• Fluidity – extent to which public opinion changes over time
• Stability – extent to which public opinion remains constant
• Relevance – extent to which an issue is of concern
– issues become relevant when they are viewed as of direct concern to daily life
• Political knowledge – extent to which individuals are aware of an issue
Discussion Questions
• How much should public opinion influence government decisionmakers?
• Should policymakers ever ignore public opinion?
• Should policymakers simply "follow the polls"?
Measuring Public Opinion
• Opinion poll = a method of systematically questioning a small, selected sample of respondents who are deemed representative of the total population
• Simple random sample – each member of the population has an equal chance of being selected for the sample
– Most scientific; sample represents population's diversity in demography and opinion
• Quota sample – less accurate; polling organizations predetermine the characteristics of the needed sample, and then find respondents with those characteristics to fill the slots
• Sampling error – difference between a sample's results and the result if the entire population had been interviewed
Problems with Polls
• Polls are a "snapshot in time" of potentially shifting opinions
• Classic errors: presidential election polls in 1948 and 1980 (Dewey beating Truman; Carter beating Reagan)
• Sampling errors (e.g., biased samples, samples too small, etc.)
• Question wording/influence of interviewer
• Unscientific polls (Internet, phone-in, push polls)
• High non-response rates
Political Socialization
• Process by which individuals acquire political beliefs, attitudes, and opinions
• Agents/forces of political socialization…
– Family
– Education
– Peers
– Religion
– Economic Status/occupation/class
– Political Events
– Opinion Leaders
– Media/TV/Internet
– Demography/Age/Gender
Discussion Questions
• What agents of political socialization had/have the most important influence on your political opinions, beliefs, and attitudes?
• In what ways are political socialization agents working on you now?
• What influence has your college experience had on your political beliefs?
Effect of Family
• Most important agent of political socialization
– Link to other forces of socialization
• How does it work?…Communication and Receptivity
– Parents communicate preferences to children
– Children want to please parents and are receptive to their views
• Important for party identification
– Children generally follow in their parents' footsteps when it comes to political party identification
• Class poll: How many of us have followed in our parents' footsteps when it comes to party identification?
Party Identification from
Parent to Child
Effects of Education and Peers
• Education
– Learn patriotism, structure of government and how to form positions on issues
– The more education a person has, the more likely he or she will be interested in politics
• Peers
– Peer group = group whose members share common social characteristics
– Most likely to shape political opinions when peer group is politically active
Effects of Religion
• Traditional view was that religious groups transmit definite political preferences
– Roman Catholics --> more liberal
– Protestants --> more conservative
– Jews --> more liberal
• More recent trends suggest…
– Jews --> liberal socially and economically
– Non-religious --> very liberal socially; mixed economically
– Protestants and Catholics vary socially and economically
• Powerful predictors of social conservatism among Christians (varied on economic issues)
– Degree of religious commitment
– Conservative, evangelical, or fundamentalist
Effects of Economic Status/Class
• Family income a strong predictor of liberalism or conservatism
• Lower income
– More likely to favor government action to benefit the poor or promote economic equality
– More likely to be socially conservative
– More likely to be Democrat
• Higher income
– More likely to oppose government intervention in the economy or support it only when it benefits business
– More likely to be socially liberal
– More likely to be Republican or Libertarian
• Socioeconomic status (SES) = best predictor of whether or not one participates in politics; an even better predictor as the activity becomes more demanding
Effects of Political Events
• Events can shape people's political attitudes
• Generational effect = a long-lasting effect of events of a particular time on the political opinions of those who came of political age at that time
– Great Depression
– World War II
– Vietnam War
– 9/11?
Effects of Opinion Leaders and Media
• Opinion Leader = one who is able to influence the opinions of others because of position, expertise, or personality
– Leaders sometimes influence the opinions of others
• Media = channels of mass communication
– Newspapers, television, radio and the Internet strongly influence public opinion
– Sometimes shape opinion
– Oftentimes not what to think, but certainly what to think about, known as agenda setting
Demographic Effects
• Region
– South, Great Plains, and Rockies --> Republican
– West Coast and Northeast --> Democratic
• Residence (urban/suburban/rural)
– Big cities --> liberal and Democratic
– Small communities --> conservative and Republican
• Ethnicity
– African Americans -->more liberal
– Whites --> more conservative
• Gender
– Men more likely to vote for Republican presidential candidate
– Women more likely to vote for Democratic presidential candidate
– Gender Gap = difference between percentage of women who vote for a particular candidate and the percentage of men who vote for the candidate
Public Opinion and Political Process
• Public opinion influences policymakers and political process
– Source of power
– Identify key issues
– Shape campaigns
• Political culture = collection of beliefs and attitudes toward government and the political process held by a community or nation
– Symbols
– Shared beliefs
• liberty, equality, property
• Support for religion
• Community service and personal achievement
• Structure of government
– Provides environment of support (trust, legitimacy)
– Political trust = degree to which individuals express trust in the government and political institutions
– Standard for evaluation of performance
Public Opinion About Government
• Considerable ambivalence regarding governmental institutions
• Tend to rise and fall with attitudes toward general state of the nation
• Even though people may not have high levels of trust in institutions, we turn to government to solve major problems
• See Tables 6-1, 6-2, and 6-3
Table 6-1: Trends in Political Trust
Table 6-2: Confidence in Institutions Trend
Public Opinion and Policymaking
• Public opinion important in policymaking
• Politicians not always guided by opinion polls
• Choices involving trade-offs have to be made
• Informed policy choice requires understanding of policy area and consequences of any given choice
• Politicians attempt to maximize the net benefits to his or her constituents while keeping within whatever the politician believes government can afford
Media and Politics
• Functions of the Media
– Entertainment
– Reporting the news
– Identifying public problems
• setting the public agenda = issues perceived by the political community as meriting public attention and governmental action
– Socializing new generations
– Providing a political forum
– Making profits
• Enormous impact on politics
• Shapes and reflects public opinion
Primacy of Television
• Most influential medium (primary source of information for 90% of Americans)
– Big business
– Increase in news-type programming
– Influence on political process
– Highly superficial
– "Sound bites"
– Narrowcasting
• Talk-show politics on TV, radio, internet
• Internet (increasingly important source for political communication and fund-raising)
Media and Political Campaigns
• Politicians use TV widely because of its importance to the public
– Advertising (very costly; driving up costs of campaigns)
• Negative advertising works
• Can reduce participation and increase cynicism
– Management of news coverage
• spin = interpretation of campaign events or election results that is favorable to the candidate's campaign strategy
• spin doctors = political campaign advisor who tries to convince journalists of the truth of a particular interpretation of events
– Presidential debates
• Media's impact on voters – hard to know exactly; influential among people who are undecided
Political Ad Spending on Broadcast TV, 1992-2000
Audiences Reached by Leading Media
Media and Government
• Media can influence government and elected officials
• Media and the Presidency
– Relationship of codependency; they need each other
– White House Press Corps = reporters assigned full-time to cover presidency
– President's press secretary = presidential staff member responsible for handing White House media relations and communications
• Primary role of media in the U.S. = setting the public agenda; determining the policy issues that need to be addressed
Discussion Questions
• Does the media have too much power in America?
• Is it possible for news organizations to remain independent of the pressure to generate ever-increasing profits through ad revenues?
• Does corporate ownership influence what is and is not covered by the media?
• Do we have a "free" press in the U.S.?

- Overview
- All-Door Boarding Test
The Wilshire Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Project is intended to further improve bus passenger travel times, service reliability, ridership of the existing Wilshire BRT system, and encourage a shift from automobile use to public transit. When implemented, bus passenger travel times are expected to improve by an average of 24%. Up to a 10% mode shift from mixed flow to bus use is projected.
Based on the bus travel time improvements and associated ridership increases experienced with the Metro Rapid Program to-date, transit ridership along the Wilshire corridor is anticipated to increase between 15% and 20%. The project is being constructed in collaboration with the City and County of Los Angeles. The majority of the project funding is being provided through a federal Very Small Starts grant.
Project Summary
The project spans approximately 12.5 miles along Wilshire Bl from Valencia St. on the east (slightly west of the I-110 Freeway) to the Santa Monica city line at Centinela Av. Of the 12.5 miles, improvements would occur on 9.9 miles of Wilshire Bl, including 7.7 miles of peak period curbside bus lanes. In those segments of Wilshire Bl where there are no bus lanes, buses would continue to operate in mixed-flow traffic during peak periods. The majority of the project falls with the City of Los Angeles (9.1 miles). It also includes a small portion, between veteran Av and Federal Av (approximately 0.8 miles, near the Veteran's Administration facility), within Los Angeles county jurisdiction.
A number of general improvements are being implemented as part of the proposed project. They include: restriping of traffic lanes, as necessary; conversion of the existing curb lanes to peak period bus lanes in each direction; upgrade of the existing transit signal priority system; selective street widening; curb lane reconstruction/resurfacing in select areas; and installation of traffic/transit signage and pavement markings, as necessary.
The bus lanes would operate during the hours of 7 am to 9 am and 4 pm to 7 pm, Monday through Friday only. Bicycles will also be allowed in the bus lanes. Vehicles wishing to make right turns will be allowed into the bus lane near the intersection in order to do so. The first segment of the bus lanes (1.8 miles) between South Park View St and Western Av opened June 2013. An additional 5 miles of bus lanes opened on April 8, 2015. These 5 miles include the segments from Western Av to San Vicente Bl (3.6 miles), the western border of the City of Beverly Hills to Comstock Av (.05 miles), Selby Av to just east of Veteran Av (0.5 miles), and Bonsall Av to Federal Av (0.4 miles). The last segment of bus lanes (0.9 miles) from Federal Av to Centinela Av is scheduled to open in early September 2015.
The All-Door Boarding test conducted at the Wilshire/Vermont and Wilshire/Westwood stops on Line 720 has been completed. Regular front door only boarding resumed Monday, July 13, 2015.
Please remember to board only at the front of the bus. There will no longer be TAP validators on the sidewalk in front of the middle and rear doors. Please remember to validate your TAP card, or pay with cash, transfer, or token at the farebox as you board the bus at the front door.
We appreciate your cooperation throughout this All-Door Boarding test period. If you would like to provide us your feedback, please email your comments to email@example.com.
Based on the results of the All-Door Boarding test, Metro will decide on the future of All-Door Boarding. We anticipate having a decision by fall 2015. If you would like to be notified of this decision and receive updates, please join our mailing list.

Observations from Wednesday night's 93-90 victory over the Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center:
-- This was about just about everyone.
-- Including Luol Deng stepping up with big shots when needed.
-- And Chris Bosh scoring early.
-- And Dwyane Wade scoring late.
-- And Justise Winslow offering defensive challenges.
-- A big, big win.
-- Oh, and, yes, Hassan Whiteside makes a difference.
-- And it doesn't take Whiteside on Instagram to point that out.
-- It was visible as soon as he entered Wednesday.
-- The impact was immediate and, well, impactful.
-- And got teammates off the bench in appreciation.

In an update project i have to do the following:
Move 3 databases from SQL2000 to SQL2005 and merge them at the same time. There are already quite a few cross database queries used in SP's and Views. The current plan is to move each of the old databases into a separate schema in 1 database.
That means we will also have to change our current SP's and Views, we now have:
SELECT OrderId, OrderDate FROM Sales.dbo.Orders
and expect we will have to change that into
SELECT OrderId, OrderDate FROM Sales.Orders
The question is: how do we do that as automated as possible?
I know about SED and similar for changing the scripts. I would welcome tips about how to be 'smart' about this, like strategies for partitioning the scripts, performance (tons of INSERT INTO lines) etc.
Note: I did look at the Import/Export Wizard but apparently I would have to set the Schema manually on each output table and fix the SP's through ALTER scripts anyway.

Indian God Lotion Overview
Indian God Lotion is a product that is made to 'numb' sensations in the penis allowing for a longer and more satisfying sexual performance. There are many similar products available, but Indian God Lotion alleges to be one of the more superior brands due to the fact that it is long lasting and does not over-desensitize the penis. The product is sold through a number of online retailers and costs $7.99 for a 3ml bottle. Larger quantities can be purchased at discount prices and, while some retailers have their own returns policies, no buyer protection safeguards are provided for the product. The actual manufacturer of the product is not known and there are no scientific studies available to shown just how well the formula works, nor are there any customer reviews shown.
Indian God Lotion Product Details
The formula for Indian God Lotion consists of Radic Asari, Isopropyl Alcohol, water and perfume. It is not explained how the key ingredient works, although it is likely to simply have a temporary numbing effect. The product is applied to the penis in a spray and it should be used at least 60 minutes before sexual activity. The effects are said to last up to 12 hours and there are approximately 16 sprays per small bottle.
Because the main effect of the product is to delay ejaculation, it is said that the consumer will enjoy a better sexual experience. However, despite alleges that the user will also gain stamina and energy, there is nothing in the formula to suggest this is true.
Advantages of Indian God Lotion
- The product is very affordable
- The formula is long lasting
- All ingredients are listed
- Indian God Lotion is available through independent retailers
Disadvantages of Indian God Lotion
- No buyer protection safeguards is provided
- There are no customer user experience stories
- Scientific proof is not shown
- The formula takes up to one hour to take effect
- Indian God Lotion ingredients are not explained in detail
Disadvantages of Indian God Lotion
This is the type of product that may have some effect but cannot be relied upon to treat* severe cases of premature climax problems. It is more of a 'novelty' product and fortunately, is affordable enough that, despite not having a buyer protection safeguards, can be tried without the consumer having to risk too much financially. The one disadvantage of Indian God Lotion in comparison to similar products is that it takes significantly longer to work, although the effects do last longer than many.
Our Top 10 Male Performance Products
Our Top 3 Male Performance Products
Enhance Your Results: Take a Comprehensive Approach to Improve* Your Sexual PerformanceSupplementation on its own can help with some sexual issues, but following the tips below as well will ensure peak performance between the sheets. They are also useful if you want to improve* your overall health and well-being. To be at your best:
- Get Plenty of Sleep (eight hours a night if possible): You already know how you feel when you skimp on your sleep. You have no energy and you're always wishing you could sneak off for a nap. Nobody is interested in sex when they feel this way. Get more sleep for an instant libido support.
- Eat Well: That means eating low-fat, high-fiber foods and ones that contain complex carbohydrates. Being at your ideal weight and consuming fresh foods will both assist in improving* sexual function.
- Stop Stressing: Some level of stress is inevitable, but too much can literally wipe out your sex drive and result in erectile difficulties. Try stress-reducing activities and avoid unnecessary stressors in your life to improve* your mental and physical health and your sex life.

Children's Zoo at Celebration Square
In January, 1967, the Children's Zoo at Celebration Square introduced a new attraction: a miniature train. This brand new train was purchased from the Allan Herschell Company and is model number S-24, also known as the "Iron Horse". The Iron Horse is a miniature train designed to carry a larger number of passengers per trip than prior park trains. Its cars have colorfully painted canopies to protect riders from the sun. Each car is 17 feet long and can carry up to 14 adults. The engine was designed to resemble vintage locomotives of the 1870s. The same type of train was shipped all over the world to locations in Toronto, Canada, San Paulo, Brazil, Tokyo, Japan, and Barcelona, Spain.
The Zoo would not have been able to make this purchase without funds from Dr. Carl H. Iberschoff, a Saginaw school teacher, who left the money to the city of Saginaw for improvement of parks and playgrounds. The train is affectionately called the Iberschoff Special, in memory of Dr. Iberschoff's generosity.
The Iberschoff Special is brightly painted in red and black and comes fully equipped with brass fittings, including a bell and a whistle to greet park animals and visitors. The Train ride quickly became, and has remained, one of the most popular attractions at the Children's Zoo. The Iberschoff Special has run faithfully for over 40 years despite increasing challenges in its maintenance.
Finally, the maintenance challenges caught up with the beloved train. As the Allen Herschell Company has discontinued the Iron Horse model only a few years after the Zoo purchased the train, replacement parts had become increasingly hard to find. This, combined with long-term wear and tear contributed to problems which required the Zoo to discontinue train rides in late summer of 2007 in the interest of visitor safety. A comprehensive inspection revealed that replacement of the entire train system was needed to ensure the safety and longevity of this cherished Zoo tradition.
The Train Replacement Project was developed to do just that. A major grant from the Harvey Randall Wickes Foundation helped the Zoo raise enough funds to begin accepting bids for the project. In the spring of 2008, Billy's Contracting rebuilt the track bed and the Crafton Railroad Company, Inc., of Illinois, laid a new track spanning 1,745 feet.
However, with the new track came the decision to remove the trestle, a favorite part of the train ride. In the interest of visitor safety, the trestle area was replaced with a hill at about the same height of the previous trestle. Another effect of removing the track system, was the loss of the tunnel, which was situated on top of the old railroad ties. However, while the trestle is now a part of the past, visitors who missed the tunnel in 2008 will be happy to hear that a new tunnel was constructed. As before, the tunnel serves as overnight and winter storage for the train, but this time around, it has doors at either end to better protect the train from the aging effects of weather.
Another phase of the Train Replacement Project was to replace the train, itself. However, as the current economic situation has diminsihed the level of funding opportunities available, this part of the plan is on hold. In the meantime, the good news is that Scientific Brake has discovered that they can perform a level of refurbishment on our existing train not previously thought possible. Therefore, the existing train will continue chugging around the track, but with less challenges to deal with to keep it going.
The Children's Zoo at Celebration Square strives to ignite awareness of, excitement in, and concern for animals and the natural world and its conservation in people of all ages.
The Children's Zoo Believes
All life exists within an ecosystem.
Human beings are an intergral part of all ecosystems.
Healthy ecosystems provide many essential services and benefits that sustain and improve human lives.
The human experience requires a connection to nature. These experiences in wild places in our community enrich our lives and inspire our choices for future generations.
Human beings are responsible for dramatic changes to ecosystems at a rate unprecedented in Earth's history.
We have the responsibility to care for the Earth, to leave healthy ecosystems for our families and future generations.
Through informed actions, we can positively impact ecosystems.
Responsible zoos and aquariums strive to conserve ecosystems and promote care and positive action for the natural world.
The Zoo's Conservation Efforts
Breeding Programs
Lockey, the Children's Zoo's Hingeback tortoise, has been busy saving his species.
He is currently on loan at Herpetological Resource Management participating in a breeding program, and has made fast friends with a female Hingeback tortoise named Kinixys.
Any baby tortoises hatched through this program will be released into their natural African habitat to help boost the wild population.
- The Children's Zoo is participating in THREE Species Survival Plans (SSP), an AZA breeding program, since our accreditation in 2009.
- The critically endangered Cotton-top tamarins
- The endangered African Black-footed penguins
- The North American river otter
Local Conservation
- The Children's Zoo participates in Adopt-A-Highway along the I-675 corridor, preventing roadside waste from polluting the land and local watershed.
Global Conservation
- The Rainforest Parking Meter, located between the Capuchin Monkey and Military Macaw exhibits collects change to protect rainforest acres in need.
- Locations of protected forests include Guanacastle Conservation Area, Costa Rica; Kunene Region Protected Area, Namibia; and Komodo National Park, Indonesia.
Fun Conservation Facts
Glass takes more than one million years to decompose (break down and disappear) in our garbage dumps.
By recycling a single aluminum can, we save enough energy to run a television for up to three hours.
Turning the water off while you brush your teeth can save 2 gallons of water a day!
Every year, enough paper is thrown away to make a 12-foot wall from New York to California.
Recycle Roo Program
This program has been developed in collaboration with Mid-Michigan Waste Authority. Recycling stations are located throughout the Zoo in which bottles and cans are collected for recycling. Each station has fun conservation tips. Zoo staff is also working hard with this program to recycle and reduce waste throughout the zoo.
Adopt a Highway
The Children's Zoo participates in the State of Michigan highway beautification program in which litter is removed from the side of roadways. The Children's Zoo has maintained a 2.3 mile stretch of northbound and southbound I-75 from M-46-M-81 since January 2007.
Save the Rainforest Donation Meter
Visitors to the Children's Zoo can give donations to help save the rainforest from habitat destruction. All proceeds benefit rainforest conservation through SaveNature.org.
Annual Conservation Events
The Children's Zoo has numerous events throughout the season to promote and educate the public about conservation. These events include but are not limited to: Go Wild! Earth Day Celebration; Birds, Bugs, Butterflies, and Blooms; Reptile Slither; Zooberfest; Zoo Boo; Arctic Zoo Fest.
Aquaponics and Hydroponics
This Children's Zoo is in the process of implementing this program in conjunction with Saginaw Valley State University. Click here for more information.

Code Geass: Dead Star by Green-MakakasWatch
©2012-2016 Green-Makakas
Dead tired after the editing... Normally, I love editing photos but sometimes it just takes too much time. The lightning and the colors here were so terrible I had to edit it for around 8 hours. BUUUUT I like the outcome a lot. This is more like an experiment because I'm not used to gradients and adding letters.

Zakery Dakery Dunk by OhSadfaceWatch

Ok it is almost unhealthy how much I have been watching Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends. Well not really only twice a day >.< well When Foster's first came out I drew a imaginary friend as you see here. This was like two years ago and he looks the same just now I have the programs to make it look like a real Foster's character! What a pain it is! I am still very impressed how they made the show but dang...Illustrator has always hated me becasue I keep messin stuff up But it did not bring me down! well neither did photoshop but still.... Anyway This used to be a complete and full line art but then I cut it up into like five layers of pieces and messed with it. If any of you have not seen Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends then for those people dont say anything about the coloring, broken lines or even the colors seeping out of place because most of it is intentional because that is how the style is. The true difference is that I gave Zakery shading which they do not really have in the show. I really think I did a good job coloring this andcreating the cute furry Zakery, but if I made my real imaginary friend when I was little it would be a picture of Darkwing Duck.....DON'T JUDGE ME!!!
Zakery(c) Me

Aww, he definitely looks cute in this style! He's got a very imaginative design, I'm especially digging the bells on hsi ears! n_n
Anyway, nice job. I can't even stand typing in Illustrator, let alone going anything else.

The power company says the controversial Klamath River hydroelectric dams are a source of clean energy that does not contribute to carbon emissions. Environmentalists and fisherman believe the dams have damaged the river and threatened livelihoods.
"Whether the power company, PacifiCorp, wants to keep the dams because they improve air quality or simply because they are inexpensive to operate is not clear. But emphasizing an environmental argument that touches on climate change has added a new wrinkle to the longstanding debate over dam removal in the Pacific Northwest. In a region where plenty of residents measured their 'carbon footprints' long before green became the new black, PacifiCorp is suggesting that righting one environmental wrong could lead to another, one that could affect people more than fish."
"Those who support removing the dams largely dismiss the clean-energy argument, saying the benefits outweigh losing a relatively small source of hydropower...Yet whatever is spent to restore salmon, and whether the solution is fish ladders or dam removal, the company has said that its customers will bear the cost, and the carbon."

Police hunt thug who punched train driver in the face
Rebecca Gray, Crime Reporter / / News
POLICE are hunting a thug who punched a train driver in the face.
The 28-year-old man was in his cab, when he was approached by a man in his 50s, who attacked him.
It happened as the 5.11pm Milngavie to Motherwell service had just stopped at Bearsden station on Sunday July 27.
The driver was taken to the Western Infirmary and released following treatment.
The suspect had short gray hair, glasses, and was wearing a blue t-shirt and grey trousers.
Detective Constable Jim Duncan, the BTP officer in charge of the inquiry, said: "Members of rail staff should be able to carry out their duties without encountering such despicable behaviour.
"I am appealing for anyone who was on the train or at the station and can help the man responsible to contact BTP."
Anyone with information is asked to contact British Transport Police on 0800 555 111.

Grilled Sweet Potatoes Recipe
"I love trying new recipes, so my son-in-law suggested we grill sweet potatoes," relates Lillian Neer, Long Eddy, New York. "Served with steak, they're a great change of pace from traditional baked potatoes...and pretty, too."
- 2 large sweet potatoes, halved lengthwise
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- Garlic salt and pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1. Cut two pieces of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. x 12 in.); place a potato half on each. Spread cut side with butter. Sprinkle with garlic salt and pepper. Top each potato with another half. Fold foil over potatoes and seal tightly. Grill, covered, over medium-hot heat for 30 minutes or until tender, turning once. To serve, fluff potatoes with a fork and drizzle with honey. Yield: 4 servings.

I spaced out and forgot to buy the cookies (had planned on using gingersnaps), so I ended up making a graham cracker crust that I found on Weight Watcher's site. I'm a calorie counter, not actually a WW, so I don't know if that changed the points, but it made the calories go up to 130ish. I topped w/ a bit of raspberry jam since I don't like whole berries. Very good! Taking them tonight to my aunt who has been having some health problems, cheesecake is one of her favorite desserts so I'm sure she'll love these.

Welcome and sorry to hear about the rain. We're looking at mid 60's with 70 tomorrow so two terrific days for riding in NC.
Welcome aboard. Rain here, too. Where do you live?Originally Posted by crazylady
Dead last finish is better than did not finish and infinitely better than did not start.
We have rain in Arkansas, but Oklahoma has an ice storm, and it's heading north not east, so things seem pretty hunky dory here.
Welcome to the 50+ forum.
We have rain here too. But it is freezing on the trees. Not yet on the ground or roads. Sounds like there are some major opwer outages to the North of us, on the evening news they were reporting 30" trees coming down due to the weight of the ice. YIKES!
It's all downhill from here. Except the parts that are uphill.
we have about 1/2" of ice here. had freezing rain all night, some trees down, widespread power outages... MJ and I are lucky, we lost no trees and the power is still on.
Welcome to the group! You won't find a better place to hang your hat than right here:-)
PS How crazylady are you?

Welcome, crazylady. They've extended the ice storm warning here in the Dallas-Fort Worth area until Monday morning. But I'm grounded from surgery anyway, so if there has to be an ice storm, I guess this is as good a time as any.

Snowed last night again, maybe another inch. The sun is out but I can't ride as it is only 3 degrees. More snow forecasted for tonight (again, maybe another inch). I just finished digging out my sidewalk from the blizzard snowfall and I just about have my basement cleaned out from Christmas storage. The new trainer will be going in as soon as the last of the furniture is moved around. I suppose its better to ride the trainer indoors than not to ride at all, but I sure do miss getting out.

Welcome to the forum- and hope we don't offend too much. Rain is not too bad here but it is made worse with the high winds we are experiencing. Temps not so bad at 40+ but Horizontal rain and wind chill makes it feel colder. Roll on Summer when we can get some warm rain- Or an extension to the hose pipe ban we still have.

I'm nearly 200 miles south of BudBent so we're just getting rain and 50 degrees. Maybe ice if the temps drop lower tomorrow.

Welcome, crazylady, to a bunch of folks crazy about cycling! You can post a bio & pic to the Rogues Gallery or just give us some background info as you please.
Being 50+ers, we're always talking about the weather...
They're beautiful handsome machines that translate energy into joy.
Welcome crazylady. I'm 100 miles west of Budbent. Just back in from a 12 mile ride...28 degrees and chill factor in the teens, roads wet but no ice yet. My coldest ride since college I think. A hard pedal out and then coasted back home on the wind.
Most economic fallacies derive from the tendency to assume that there is a fixed pie, that one party can gain only at the expense of another.....Milton Friedman
Mid sixties and partly cloudy here in Georgia today. Did a great 55 miler. Seventies and cloudy for the next two days, then cooler and rainy. My trainer won't get much use at this rate.
What kind of pie did you bring. No matter what Dnvr says, it doesn't have to be blueberry (but it's just fine if it is).
The more you ride your bike, the less your ass will hurt.
Never broke 50 here in LA today. Did a very windy 80 mile loop to the Rose Bowl and never got warm.
Yeah, I know that sounds pitiful to you guys in the frozen north but this is LA, we're not really used to this.
Just wait till it's 118 F, you won't hear us complaining.
I live in Lafayette, Indiana. Fun place. You nap for a week and still be up to date with everyone else.
I am the craziest of the crazylady's out there. if someone wanted to drive me nuts. we would already be there.

I was suppose to bring pie? Dang nambit. I brought pi. (3.1415297...)

Cats travel to Arkansas focused on improvement
Kentucky's players returned home after a win at Vanderbilt thinking everything was fine.
It wasn't. Not for their coach.
"I kind of hit them in the mouth (with the truth)," John Calipari said. "I think they were all, like, stunned."
Calipari didn't like the way they failed to put the Commodores away in a 71-62 win. He didn't like that his team was content with a win that wasn't them at their best.
Calipari's reality check figuratively slapped "everybody" on the team, he said.
"I'm trying to get these guys excited about winning and excited about us getting better," Calipari said.
No. 13 Kentucky has another chance to do that Tuesday when it plays at Arkansas, where Calipari's UK teams are 0-2.
The Razorbacks figure to employ their frenetic style of play on the Wildcats -- "Our defense is geared toward not letting teams do what they want to do," coach Mike Anderson said -- hoping to pressure the ball (Arkansas ranks sixth nationally in creating turnovers) and attack the basket (they make 53 percent of their two-pointers).
Arkansas can ill afford to let Kentucky play a half-court game, Anderson said, given the size disparity between the two teams. So the Hogs will try to turn Tuesday into "a 94-foot game," he said.
"You have to have tough, strong-willed players," Calipari said. "If you're timid in any way, they overrun you."
The Razorbacks had a 23-game home winning streak snapped last week in a two-point overtime loss to Florida.
"They're used to playing close games," freshman center Dakari Johnson said. "We just got to go in with the mindset that we really want to compete."
Competing, Calipari said, is the most crucial component for this team. He wants this group to be the best it can be, and that won't be judged by margins of victory or defeat.
Instead, it's the work his teams put into it. He told stories of former players staying in the gym late or organizing early-morning workout sessions.
So far, this team doesn't have enough of that.
And there's only so much he can do to change it.
"You can encourage it, but that's the best you can do," Calipari said. "If it comes from them, they're inspired."
So he wants to see his players inspired off the court and focused on it. He wants them "committed" and "driven" to succeed. He wants that mentality to bleed over onto the court -- starting, preferably, on Tuesday.
"Guys got to be more invested in this," Calipari said. "And they're beginning to be."

How Does Library Management System Works?
The Library Management System (LMS) is the advanced software that provides the database pertaining to a library. The system is used to track all the materials that are owned by the library, orders placed for procurement of new materials, payments that were made and name of the members or subscribers who have borrowed books from the library. The system tracks the subscribers and items using the unique IDs that are given to the individual subscribers as well as individual items. The functions of LMS are tracking and shelving of the items, circulation, preparing catalog, receiving materials and billing, ordering and procuring the required materials. Library Management System provides the best solutions for accounts management, collection analysis and other similar activities that are carried out online. The professionals from the companies that provide LMS work with their clients and guide them to use the software for diverse tasks so as to make the functioning of the library more efficient and effective. The purpose of Library Management System is to streamline various functions of the library such as cataloging, circulation and acquisitions. The Library Management System can be provided for a single library or for the libraries of a group of institutions. The companies that provide management services for the libraries ensure efficient workflows and provide the facility to libraries to share the facilities as well as costs of infrastructure.
Integrated LMS and Interoperable LMS
The technologically advanced LBS are web-based and the users are able to access the system through a web-browser. The companies that offer this type of software to the libraries also provide technical service, training and other support services. Many advanced Library Management software products are developed for specific users like medical libraries, educational institutions, legal libraries and various resource centres. With the help of multi-location Library Management Systems, the librarians and resource managers of libraries are able to manage information in multi-type resources. Now, librarians are able to manage their libraries online by using integrated Library Management systems. When security based resources are indexed in the major search engines such as Google and Yahoo, the users from any part of the world can access the library based on the resource. This will make marketing easier for libraries. The integrated Library Management Systems provide the best solution for automation of libraries. The most advanced features such as Cataloging, Report Generation, MAC21 and Live web OPAC, etc. are now made accessible for the librarians so that the libraries need not spend money in order to procure costly software and hardware.
The advanced LBSs ensure to keep the databases secured, tamper-free and with constant back up arrangements time to time. All these tasks are performed by the system automatically only. Now libraries are able to share data across blogs, social networking sites and various official sites with the help of RSS module. The modern Library Management Systems ensure usability, integration and comfortable online management of libraries. Apart from enabling the libraries to add additional features and modules the modern Library Management Systems also enable libraries to work as well as share with other libraries. While the traditional LBSs were used exclusively to run the libraries efficiently and effectively, the advanced LBSs have additional tasks to perform like meeting various requirements of the libraries and providing user experience. The Library Management Systems had been subjected to a lot of innovations. The LBSs are already standards based and in the near future they are likely to be more standards based. The web-based library automation software provides enhanced facilities like multi-branch operation and multi-location management. Efforts are on to make these systems interoperable so that institutions can operate the system with their portals and record systems. When the system is made interoperable, many changes can be brought in the process though the core system remains with the service provider.
Advanced LMS for academic institutions
In the academic context the Library Management System manages a wide range of functions including asset management, catalogs, metadata, source materials, learning resources, etc. The LBS ensures running of the library in a well-structured and efficiently managed way. The users can search the assets, find out whether a particular asset exists and if so its location and they can receive the asset whenever they require it. The LBS will also support other functions like creation and publication. The advanced types of LMS that is developed specially for academic as well as research institutions provide the facility to integrate with other systems so that searches can be made across multiple databases. Now, many companies offer the system with a single interface to multiple e-resources such as books from the libraries, virtual reference, RSS feeds, digital archives, databases, etc. By way of enhancing the functionality of the Library Management Systems, the suppliers are able to provide more support to their clients thanks to the new features of the software. Electronic Packing Slips and XML documents are provided with local system so that the check-in data can be updated at issue level. Reminders and feedbacks about reservations can be sent to the users with the help of computer integrated telephony. Access to the OPACs is provided through mobile phones and other mobile devices like PDAs.
