in race, notion of a gay mayor met with a shrug
San Diego mayoral campaign illustrates how much voters' attitudes have shifted
focused on pensions, civic projects and budget woes — is drowning out the fact that the winner could make San Diego one of a few major U.S. cities with an openly gay mayor.
Two high-profile candidates — Councilman Carl DeMaio and District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis — are gay Republicans who, if elected, would represent the culmination of an LGBT movement that emerged in the 1970s from the neighborhood of Hillcrest.
The possibility that the region's most visible political figure could be a homosexual person has been met with a collective shrug from San Diegans, illustrating how much attitudes have changed as more and more gay politicians rose to prominence during the past two decades.
"It's a great progression by voters in San Diego," said Delores Jacobs, chief executive of The San Diego Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center. "It's a great story to talk about the ways that the politics of the past are no longer acceptable. It doesn't mean they don't occasionally happen in different corners with using sexual orientation in one way or another subtly, but it's not the body politic's fight."
As mayoral candidates jockey for position ahead of the June primary, the topics of sexual orientation and same-sex marriage have received nary a mention in forums and debates. The emphasis has been on public employee pensions, the city's fiscal challenges and major infrastructure projects such as the proposed Chargers stadium and convention center expansion.
That wasn't the case five years ago when Mayor Jerry Sanders reversed course and began to support same-sex marriage as his re-election neared. He gave an emotional speech saying he could no longer in good conscience deny that right to his lesbian daughter and gay staff members. The local Republican Party reconsidered its endorsement of Sanders; he barely held on to the endorsement and later won the race handily.
"The Republican Party wasn't tremendously pleased with my stance in 2007 and now they're very accepting of both (gay) candidates," Sanders said. "I think that means San Diegans are judging people on the quality of leadership, the qualities that they provide, rather than any other type of characteristic."
Another reason is that all four major candidates, which also include Democratic Rep. Bob Filner and Republican Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher, are considered gay-friendly. They profess support for same-sex marriage, leaving the LGBT community to make its decision based on other criteria.
None of the candidates can lay claim to being the gay community's preferred choice. That was made abundantly clear in October when Fletcher won the backing of the Log Cabin Republicans San Diego, a group that supports the party's principles and pushes for gay equality. The organization picked Fletcher, who is straight, over the two gay candidates from their party.
DeMaio, who has been in a committed relationship with San Diego Gay & Lesbian News Publisher Johnathan Hale for three years, said the mayor needs to be a leader for the entire city and focused on the fiscal crisis, not gay-rights issues.
"I made it quite clear that I'm running on an agenda of fiscal reform, job creation and infrastructure improvement," he said. "These other issues are just simply not relevant. I don't think voters care one way or the other."
Dumanis, who married wife Denise Neleson in 2008 when same-sex marriage was briefly legal in California before voters enacted a ban, said she is standing on the shoulders of those who came before her and changed hearts one at a time.
"In my view, if you feel comfortable in your skin, then people will feel comfortable with you," she said. "You don't have to make a big deal out of it. You just do your thing and people respond to that. And as more people have been more comfortable being openly gay, then more people see that there's somebody in their life that … they now know is gay and it changes views."

Two couples, including an elderly pair who suffered serious facial injuries, were injured in a vicious highway assault, Queenstown police said yesterday.
Police in Queenstown charged a 32-year-old Gore lineman with assault with intent to injure after an incident on State Highway 6 at 8pm on Saturday.
Sergeant Blair Duffy, of Queenstown, said the man was also charged with a second alleged assault on a middle-aged couple 100 metres from the initial incident.
The alleged assaults happened on a busy highway with slow-moving traffic as thousands of people left the Gibbston Summer Concert venue.
Police described the alleged assault on the elderly pair as vicious.
It appeared the couple, who were driving to Christchurch, expressed concerns because the intoxicated man was walking down the middle of State Highway 6.
They had stopped, pulled over and were outside their car tightening the strops on a trailer when they spoke to the man, who apparently reacted violently.
The male victim, 71, and his partner suffered serious facial injuries and were taken to Lakes District Hospital before travelling to Christchurch.
A middle-aged couple in their 50s also asked the man to get off the road 100 metres from the initial incident.
The woman suffered bruising and a suspected fracture above an eye.
The man is expected to appear in the Queenstown District Court.

WATERBURY Vermont State Police are looking for information about an assault and attempted robbery Saturday at a rest area on Interstate 89 in Waterbury.
State police say they received a call from Bryon Stueber, 25, of Northfield, saying he was at the rest area on I-89 northbound when a male approached him asking for help changing a tire. Stueber told state police that when he approached the mans vehicle, the man assaulted him and a second man tried to take Stuebers wallet.

The new home of
Holiday cottages in Ireland are the gateway to a fantastic experience filled with stunning scenery, wonderful heritage and a delightfully relaxing ambience that is unique to the 'Emerald Isle'. There really is no place like it to enjoy a break. And if you're contemplating a holiday you may like a few suggestions for some of the best things to see and do. So take a look at our guide below for some holiday inspiration!
Ireland's landscape is justly celebrated for its wealth of treasures, both natural and man-made. Those seeking Ireland's rural charms will be well-served with a visit to the Ring of Kerry. This circular 180km trail takes in some of Ireland's most wondrous locations, including Ross Castle, Ladies View and the Killarney National Park, and is well-suited to those looking for a lovely leisurely drive. If you fancy an active exploration of the beautiful scenery then we'd recommend a hike along the Kerry Way. This walking trail is normally completed in nine days, but there are plenty of scenic stretches to stroll along. If you fancy something a little livelier than few visits to Ireland are complete without a visit to its many great cities, and Dublin is undoubtedly the biggest draw. Ireland's capital offers wonderful shopping, fantastic heritage (the Guiness Storehouse!), beautiful architecture and an enticing, relaxed atmosphere. Those with Irish holiday cottages near Sligo, Cork, Galway and the other major cities will find an equally varied array of activities to enjoy. Then again, if you'd rather get away from it all and enjoy Ireland's unspoilt beauty and unrivalled tranquillity then we can't recommend the Aran Islands highly enough. Located a short distance from the shores of Galway, these three stunning islands offer a beautiful window to the past. Explore medieval ruins and gaze at beautiful rolling vistas while you enjoy the uniquely relaxed rural ambience. There are few better ways to create fantastic holiday memories!
Since the country is so renowned for the wild beauty of its landscape, it should come as no surprise to find that outdoor and active breaks are one of the main reasons people seek Irish cottages. There are few nicer places to enjoy a stroll than the countryside of Ireland, but you'll also find it's equally well-suited to those looking for a little rest and relaxation. Thanks to a diverse array of attractions city breaks are also incredibly popular. Visitors to Dublin and the other major cities will find fantastic cultural events, great food and drink, wonderful shopping opportunities and a chance to make some long lasting holiday memories.
If you're ready to begin an exploration take a look at our holiday cottages in Ireland today.

Associated Press
LONDON — Mitt Romney wanted to highlight U.S.-British bonds — and show off his diplomatic skills to boot — but he managed to rankle the Olympic hosts instead, from Prime Minister David Cameron on down.
The Republican presidential candidate, taking a turn on the world stage, called London's problems with Olympic Games preparation "disconcerting." That prompted Cameron to retort on Thursday that doubters would "see beyond doubt that Britain can deliver." And London Mayor Boris Johnson told tens of thousands gathered in Hyde Park: "There's a guy called Mitt Romney who wants to know if we are ready. Are we ready? Yes we are!"
Amid the uproar, Romney tried to back off his critique, finally concluding, "I expect the games to be highly successful."
Romney also caused a stir with his attendance at a fundraiser with banking executives tainted by a British interest rate-fixing scandal. And he inadvertently disclosed that he held a secret meeting with the head of Britain's intelligence service.
The bobbles threatened to undermine Romney's first international tour as the man who would replace Democratic President Barack Obama.
A one-term Massachusetts governor with limited foreign policy experience, he is hoping to show voters back home that he is ready to represent the U.S. strongly and smoothly at a time of global economic turmoil and security troubles. He also wants to emphasize his own tenure running the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City by attending this year's opening ceremonies. And he hopes to draw subtle contrasts with Obama.
"I'm looking forward to the bust of Winston Churchill being in the Oval Office again," Romney told donors at a fundraiser, Obama's administration sent back to Britain a bust of Churchill that once sat in the Oval Office. Obama aides say it was scheduled to be returned.
All in all, though, it was a shaky start to Romney's planned weeklong trip overseas that will include Israel and Poland after England.
As he met with British leaders past and present, Romney sought to keep the focus on the close alliance between America and Britain, praising "the unique relationship that exists between our nations, our commitment to common values, our commitment to peace in the world and a desire to see a stronger and growing economy."
But he may have ended up straining his own relationship with the British — and embarrassing them — by questioning whether the country could host a flawless Olympics after years of preparation.
England has constructed an enormous Olympic Park in East London, will showcase tennis at Wimbledon, is hosting soccer in Glasgow in Scotland and has even built a volleyball court behind No. 10 Downing Street, where Romney met with Cameron. Yet, the country has faced steady media coverage of things that have gone wrong: A security firm didn't hire enough people; problems at immigration threatened security risks.
Shortly after arriving in London on Wednesday, Romney told NBC News that it was unclear whether issues that have dogged the final preparations could be overcome, saying: "It's hard to know just how well it will turn out." He made the remark two days before the opening ceremonies and after his staff had attended the dress rehearsal for that show.
By the next morning, Cameron was standing outside Olympic Park responding to questions about Romney's comments.
"We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the world. Of course it's easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere," Cameron added. His aides said that was not intended as a jibe at Romney or Salt Lake City. But that didn't stop people on the Internet and elsewhere from suggesting it was.
As criticism of Romney's comments mounted, he suggested it's impossible for any Olympic Games to go off without a hitch.

Fleas, Ticks and Summer Bugs
Posted in the Bartlesville Forum
1 - 1 of 1 Comments Last updated May 16, 2012
#1 May 16, 2012
Because we didn't have a winter, the bug are really bad, including fleas and ticks. I spread Walmart brand flea and tick granules outside and it really helps keep them off the cats. Much better than trying to use a poison on the cat to kill fleas. IOW, kill the fleas, not the cats.
But if you have problems and they get in the house you've got a big problem. Besides biting they can get in your hair and itch like crazy. For that you have to wash your hair and rinse with vinegar, and then wash and rinse again. Also, wash all the bedding.
I used diatomaceous earth on the cats, and on the carpet,(dusting it in), and then vaccumed every couple days. I also set light and soapy water traps at night to trap fleas. For the lights, I used those little tiny outdoor type battery operated lights, and they worked like a charm. If your tenacious, you can control and just about completely eliminate fleas and ticks.
I went for 2 years with no flea problem on my cats at all until this year.

What children say...
It has inspired me to do more I.T and to learn more about computing. After this session I have learnt lots of interesting things and I now want to learn much more and will inspire me to have many more ideas.
Alissia on Ten Fingers or Two: How Computers Count, 7th Feb 2016, aged 13
I enjoyed it because it made me think and challenged my brain. I want to become an architect because I love maths and construction. The masterclass intensified my will. Maths can be fun. Honest! 22nd Nov 2015
George, aged 5
It inspired me to try harder at challenging things because you really have to switch your brain on and make an effort. I don't have to try hard at school because it is so easy. For me, tricky equals fun.
Amity, aged 7
In answer to question Inspired to learn more? 'Yes. I love science and would like to be a doctor when I grow up'.
