Difference between revisions of "Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay/MV Daeyang Family"
Revision as of 11:57, 20 August 2011
The dive site MV Daeyang Family is an offshore recent wreck on rocky reef in the Robben Island] area on the Atlantic seaboard of the Cape Peninsula near Cape Town in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
This site is not in a Marine Protected Area. A permit is not required.
The MV Daeyang Family was a large Korean ore carrier which was wrecked on Whale Rock on 1st March 1986 when anchors dragged in heavy weather, with a cargo of 162000 tonnes of ore.
The wreck lies at a bottom that varies from about 15m to about 19m. The shallowest point is on top of the engine block ay about 5m. Most of the wreckage is low and not more than 2 to 3m above the underlying reef.
Geology: Pre-Cambrian sedimentary rock probably of the Tygerberg formation.
The site is exposed to wind from all directions and swaells from the north west and southwest, so should be dived when the sea is almost flat, and particularly the south west swell component is short period. The site is usually at it's best in summer but there may also be occasional opportunities in autumn and early winter.
This is an area where a strong south easterly wind sometimes develops in a short time, however the forecasts are usually reliable.
Get in
The site is only accessible by boat. It is about (distance)km from the Oceana Power Boat Club slipway
Marine life
Wreckage of a large steel cargo vessel.
No specific routes recommended.
Stay safe
Strong surge, sharp edged wreckage, cold water.
No special skills recommended.
Good insulation recommended. 7mm wet suit or dry suit.
Back to Diving the Cape Peninsula and False Bay

This example is a modern decorative hard paste porcelain fantasy pretending to be 18th century Sevres porcelain. It has an obvious familiar mark boldly printed on the bottom, a looped capital 'L' device enclosing a letter, it is decorated with classical scenes, brightly accented with gold and has fancy, creature-shaped handles, but this article was not made by the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres (National manufacturer of Sèvres). The mark is spurious; the vase is a fake that has never been anywhere near the Sèvres factory in France. Frequently very new items like these are offered to buyers as if 'antique' though fresh from the reproduction wholesaler's packaging.
All marks used by Sèvres over time are well documented. Each corresponded to a specific period of time. The looped capital 'L' marks, the royal cipher of the king, are 18th century marks applied to soft paste porcelain articles. The specific cipher mark you see in this listing enclosing a capital 'S' would indicate the year 1771. But that mark would never have originally been applied to hard paste porcelain. A mark that included a representation of the king's crown was reserved for use on hard paste.
The original mark of the king was always drawn by hand, too, causing each to be unique, though similarly shaped. The mark seen here on this item was printed by a modern factory machine. Compare it with the identical stamped mark on the Swan Handled Vases listed here in this shop under Item ID: 2007RP000244
Lastly, take a close look at the body of the example presented. Artwork and gilding on true Sèvres porcelain is always extremely fine. All decorative processes were sophisticated and strictly controlled. Gilding on antique Sevres was sumptuous. It was built up in layers to have a three-dimensional look. The vase in this listing is pretty, but far from spectacular. The gilding is flat, having simply been painted rather haphazardly over raised surface decoration, mocking rather badly the appearance of layering. If you look closely at any section of the vase it is easy to see that none of its decoration is of 'Sèvres' quality. Though you may need to look close to tell for sure, most specious items of this type were decorated with transfer designs, not hand painted.
Ask yourself, honestly, does it really look like it was made in 1771? Is it fit for presentation to royalty? To a king? The answer to each of those questions is, no.
Always remember, Sevres' marks are among the most commonly faked marks on porcelain. So you have to examine other item characteristics rather than relying solely on the mark.
Measures 20 inches tall; 14 inches across the handles. It rests on a 7" square base.

This charming 2 story home sits on 10 acres and is surrounded by sagebrush flats and old growth juniper. the mountain views from the deck are stunning. The abundant sunshine keeps the home warm in winter and the breeze across the sage cools it in the summer.
the top floor is one large great room with kitchen and bath. There are 16 steps. The lower floor has a large open space, 2 bedrooms, laundry and bath.The lower deck has a hot tub to soak and view the mountains or the stars.
There is a separate playhouse with a large deck that has heat and lights. 1 mile from the rodeo grounds.

I live in Portland with my 2 kids and 2 cats.
Mike Parrish purchased this house in 1995
This area has the best weather and easy access to the outdoor activities I enjoy. Climbing, mountain biking, mountaineering, backpacking, hiking and hanging out
sitting on the deck with a cold drink looking at the mountains after a long bike ride.
The stay here was very enjoyable. I loved the quick and easy access from Redmond/Sisters but yet still felt like it was secluded enough to be totally relaxing. Quick drive into Sisters for an enjoyable outing but then back to the tranquil setting. The outdoor shower was a treat! The booking, reservations and correspondence all went very well. Mike was very helpful in answering any questions and was quick to respond.
This place is much more spacious than the images reflect. Our group included 11 adults and 1 large dog and by all accounts was incredibly comfortable for meals, lounging, and sleeping. The views were amazing...north, middle, and south sisters as well as broken top! The accommodations within were great, especially the tub out back! This place is just far enough off the beaten path to feel a sense of "away," while also being staged proximal to the Metolius River, Mt. Bachelor, 3 Sisters wilderness, and Smith Rock! You would be missing a real gem if you chose to overlook this place.
I stayed in this lovely cabin for a week in July with my pets. Mike was a kind and gracious host and very responsive to email and later by phone.
The cabin sits on 10 acres in a community with other cabins and some year around residents. It sits about 10 minutes away from Sisters and about 20 minutes to Bend. There are homes on either side of the cabin. The closest home is situated forward on their property while the cabin is situated towards the back so you really can't see or hear the neighbors. The other home is much further away and can't be seen. The only thing that is visible is their horse corral.
The property is very natural and is enjoyable to stroll in the morning and evenings.
The cabin has two levels. The main living area with the kitchen and one bathroom is upstairs to take advantage of the lovely mountain views. There are 16 stairs from the front door up to the upper level. I mention this because the one of the previous review made it sound like it was outrageous and that's not the case. The upstairs is very cozy with a TV and lots of games. The house is situated east to west so you can watch a lovely sunrise and beautiful sunsets.
There are windows on all sides of the upper level with screens and a large slider to the amazing deck. There were NO bugs at all except an occasionally month. It was so comfortable; I almost never closed the door. My dogs enjoyed going in and out onto the deck during the heat of the day. They also enjoyed watching the jackrabbits and chipmunks.
The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, mixers and other things making it really pleasant and easy to cook. Only need to bring the groceries.
The bedrooms are on the lower level with the outdoor shower and a half bath. It was always cool and comfortable down there during our stay. It was in the 90s on multiple days. There is also a washer and dryer on this level.
The backdoor opens out to the outdoor shower and hot tub.
My week's stay at this cabin was restful and very enjoyable. I think it's a great place for a weekend retreat or a base for exploring Bend, Sisters and the surrounding area.
Mike is most helpful. If you are looking for a comfortable home away from home, this cabin is it.
Sorry I am just getting this review written, but....our group of moms and teen daughters spent a lovely block of time celebrating the start of summer in this comfortable home in Sisters. The girls spent endless hours exploring, catching lizards ( and a frog!), spotting jack rabbits and cute little bunnies, making friends with the neighbor horse. We played games, cooked , ended our days with a luxurious soak in the hot tub. The days found us exploring the area...we hiked around Smith Rock, had an adventure going up to the observatory and lava flows. There are endless things to do and see in this region, and this home is comfortable and in a lovely setting with stunning views. The girls loved staying in the bunk house, their own little cabin, which meant their late night giggling didn't keep us up! The outdoor shower with a view of that wide open sky was another unexpected perk of this great home!
The owner is kind and super easy to work with. I hope we get the opportunity to return....I can't recommend it highly enough!
My family loves this cabin. Cozy and comfortable with amazing views of the mountains. We were lucky with clear skies this trip, and the stars at night were stunning. The owner is very, very helpful and always willing to fix anything that needs fixing. The kitchen is well stocked, the hot tub nice and hot. It's a great location for hiking, biking and skiing. We hope to be back!
The cabin was, as advertised isolated and remote--with lovely views of the Cascades. It was down a long dirt road with a locked gate. That is the good news.
The bad news is that we were there during a heat wave, and the temperature ranged all week from 92-98! That certainly was not the fault of the owner. However, the cabin needs some renovation and amenities to make it a comfortable retreat. As it is, it was close to uninhabitable in the heat. There is no screen on the one sliding door to the back deck. And no shades on the West facing windows. Shades on other windows need to be replaced. There is only one bathroom with tub and shower--upstairs. The other is a half bath and is on the first floor with all the beds--which are arranged family style. No place to hang out downstairs, which was about 83 degrees. It was waaaay too hot to go upstairs--except quite late at night when we opened all the windows and turned on the two small fans, Needless to say, we spent very little time at the cabin--mainly to sleep, which was comfortable enough.
A big drawback is for seniors--or anyone with movement difficulties. There are 19 stairs going straight up as one enters the house. They are not navigable for anyone with arthritis, for sure. There needs to be a warning to this effect in the property description.
I can see sportsmen or families with kids and dogs staying at this place when weather is nice--or if they like winter sports. Just be aware that it has minimal amenities. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this property to a friend or relative---except perhaps to my adult son and friends who are winter sport enthusiasts.

About the LDAA
The Lyme Disease Association of Alberta (LDAA) is a non-profit organization incorporated in 2013. The LDAA was created to provide Lyme disease awareness & prevention information to Albertans. As well, the organization strives to provide support to patients, caregivers, and families affected by Lyme disease.
What is Lyme Disease?
Lyme disease is a bacterial illness spread to humans by ticks. Ticks carrying the Lyme disease bacterium have been found across Canada, and within Alberta's provincial borders. In a 2013 surveillance study by Alberta Health, 20 % of collected blacklegged ticks were found to be infected with the Lyme bacteria, Borrelia burgdorferi. Lack of recognition of the existence of ticks & Lyme in Alberta can compromise the ability of Albertans to obtain a timely diagnosis and treatment for the disease. MORE ABOUT LYME DISEASE
Albertans have a shortage of options for treatment. The controversy surrounding this illness leaves many Albertans jumping hurdles within the Alberta health system as they seek diagnosis and treatment for this often debilitating disease.

Hope K. Haefner, MD, director of the University of Michigan Center for Vulvar Diseases, says very conservative treatment would include avoiding soap in the vulvar area, wearing cotton underpants, and using water-based vaginal lubricants and cool gel packs to ease the pain.

Christin finally found a surgical solution for her sexual pain Read more
Surgery is most commonly considered for women who have pain specifically in the vestibule area at the entrance to the vagina (vulvar vestibulitis syndrome, also called vestibulodynia)and who have not responded to other treatments.
For those women, the surgical removal of the tissue that apparently has an overgrowth of nerves is the most effective treatment, says Irwin Goldstein, MD, director of San Diego Sexual Medicine and the editor in chief of The Journal of Sexual Medicine.

Northwest Natural Gas Co. rates will drop for the fourth year in a row, following a decision Thursday by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission.
Effective Nov. 1, rates will drop by about 8 percent — saving a typical household using 56 therms per month or about $5 on each month's bill.
Northwest Natural adjusts its rates annually to reflect changes in wholesale natural gas prices, which have declined because supplies are robust throughout the U.S. and weak economic conditions have kept demand down.
Portland-based Northwest Natural serves more than 681,000 residential and business customers in Oregon and Southwest Washington.

An 'anomaly' among economic peers
"There are actually only 30 countries that practice birthright citizenship."
No one can remember it be lowered
The Confederate battle flag at the South Carolina statehouse "must fly at a height of 30 feet. Any changes -- taken down, or even at half-staff, if that can be done -- must be passed by a supermajority of the General Assembly."
A fair observation
"Fox News barely covered (the Duggar family) scandal until Megyn Kelly was able to secure this interview."
Significantly more contagious than Ebola
"If someone is in a room that has measles and leaves and you walk in two hours later, you could get measles from that person."
A big problem in developing countries
"Measles is one of the most common causes of child blindness worldwide."
From 'Mein Kampf' on
The words "subhuman mongrel," which Ted Nugent called President Barack Obama, were used by the Nazis to "justify the genocide of the Jewish community."
Which is kind of the point
The Keystone pipeline creates "35 permanent jobs" after construction, according to a government report.
Obamas are first no-shows since 1998
"It's been 14 years since a president or a vice president or a member of their family has not gone and attended at least an event at the Olympics."
This box score puts Obama on top
"The Obama administration has used the Espionage Act to go after whistleblowers who leaked to journalists ... more than all previous administrations combined."
It grew quite a bit last year
"Forty percent of the country is going to be in states that are tolerant of gay marriage or at least civil unions."
He's right on the data; no one's certain why
"Medicare costs have slowed down dramatically. In fact, the first two months of this fiscal year, Medicare costs were down even in nominal terms relative to the previous year."
Federal data generally backs him up
"More than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock."
Laws that set mandatory spending can be changed
Federal spending is "all discretionary, other than interest on the national debt. Social Security is discretionary. We have the discretion to change the law. Same is true with Medicare and Medicaid."

We really enjoyed this quiet county park! Black Hawk County runs several RV parks and they really take care of them well. Black Hawk Park has spacious back-ins and a couple of pull thrus. Most are FHU but a few are electric only. Sites are generously spaced apart, some with full shade and others with partial shade, & big rig suitable. Our site was over 60' long with a level concrete pad. They don't take reservations. You self-register at a kiosk. Nearby Big Woods RV park is also county run and very similar, except it does take reservations for some sites. Our pedestal had a bad 50A circuit breaker and the county promptly sent someone to repair it. If you ride a bike, you'll love all the bike trails that connect the campgrounds to miles of well-maintained paved trails through Cedar Falls and Waterloo. There's also a free archery range and gun range in the park. We were there over a weekend in July and many sites were still available. Verizon had a strong signal and ATT had a weak but functional signal. We had a satellite friendly site. We'll be back for a longer visit! - Danno

Very nice park. Spacious spaces - each has a fire ring and table. The spaces are gravel with a concrete slab. People start arriving on Wednesday and by Friday, its pretty full. On Sunday they all leave and the process starts all over again. We stayed there for 18 days. - hotpepperkid
Aug 2012 - $22.00
This public park offers spacious level gravel sites with lots of shade available. Utilities were reliable, AT&T phone/data service was good and over-the-air television signals were available. The park was well occupied during our stay, but still quiet. Shower and bathroom facilities were basic but clean. A wide variety of outdoor sports activities were available within the park. We would be happy to return. - never settled

Beatrice & Faye are my absolute favorites. I love Vera as well. Maybe Persephone would work in the middle for you? Especially with the simplicity of Faye I think Persephone works! I wouldn't think of gay Faye. I don't think it's common for girls to get teased with that word really.

Publisher's Description
Author Bio
L. B. Cowman worked as a pioneer missionary with her husband in Japan and China from 1901 to 1917, during which time they helped found the Oriental Missionary Society. When Mr. Cowman's poor health forced the couple to return to the United States, Mrs. Cowman turned her attention to caring for her husband until his death six years later. Out of Mrs. Cowman's experiences and heartbreak came her first book, Streams in the Desert, followed by its companion Springs in the Valley. During the next twenty-five years, Mrs. Cowman inspired several nationwide Scripture distribution campaigns and wrote seven more books. Finally, on Easter Sunday in 1960, at the age of ninety, Mrs. Cowman met face-to-face the God she had served so faithfully for nearly a century.
Jim Reimann has more than five million books in print in twelve languages, including the updated editions of Streams in the Desert and My Utmost for His Highest. He was a former retail executive and past chairman of the Christian Booksellers Association. As an ordained minister, Bible teacher, author, and expert on Israel, he hosted teaching tours of Israel and other Bible lands, which he offered through his website. www.JimReimann.com

Maeva Razakasoa moved up into the top spot in singles for LBSU and it paid off as the 49ers won 5-2 over Dartmouth.
March 20, 2014
The Long Beach State women's tennis team won its second straight match in two days with a 5-2 victory over Dartmouth Thursday at the Rhodes Tennis Center.
The 49ers (11-2) fought back after dropping the doubles point to take victories in five of their six singles matches. Julie Gerard tied the match up at 1-all with her singles win at the No. 3 spot. She beat Melissa Matsuoka 6-3, 6-2 while Hayley Thompson quickly followed to give LBSU the lead as she downed Suzy Tan 6-0, 6-1. Maeva Razakasoa played her first match in the top spot and she gained another win to add to her impressive record as she won 6-3, 6-4 over Katherine Yau. Karolina Rozenberg then sealed the match in the 49ers' favor as she won in three sets over Akiko Okuda. Ebba Unden slid into the No. 2 spot for LBSU and she scored the final point for Beach Tennis as she won 6-4, 4-6, 6-4 over Taylor Ng.
"After losing the doubles point, I was really proud of the team for coming out so strong in singles," head coach Jenny Hilt-Costello said. "We won all six first sets, which really gave us some momentum to win the match."
Beach Tennis will have one day to savor the victory as No. 37 Harvard makes the trip to Long Beach on Saturday to close out the week. Doubles play is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. at the Rhodes Tennis Center.

A program that encourages downtown Vancouver commuters to ride transit, bike, walk, or carpool instead of driving alone is showing positive early results, based on surveys of program participants.
Destination Downtown, a city-run program funded by a federal transportation grant and city funds, found in its draft 2012 Program Report that participants reduced their drive-alone commuting by 8 percent from when they signed up for the program. Respondents to the survey said they increased their walking by 1.7 percent, transit use by 3.9 percent, and carpooling by 4.2 percent. However, bicycling dropped by 1.8 percent, possibly due to fall weather conditions when the follow-up survey was taken.
The program, which offers gifts and other incentives as inducements to reduce single-driver auto commuting, launched its outreach program last April. It covers an area bounded by Interstate 5 to the east, the Columbia River to the south, 15th Street to the north, and a jagged western border that generally follows Harney Street. The effort is funded with $230,000, with the city paying about $31,000 and the rest coming from a federal congestion management program.
About 400 people participated in the fall survey of their commuting habits, which compared their responses to a baseline when they joined the program. In the follow-up survey, almost 49 percent of commuter travel by program participants in the fall was drive-alone commuting. Sixteen percent of trips were by bicycle. The rest were walking, carpooling, or riding transit, with each garnering between 10 and 12 percent.
Respondents listed several major factors that would have helped them further reduce their commute driving. Thirty percent said "safer bike routes" would make a difference. Twenty-three percent cited the need for better transit service, while 19 percent said they would carpool if they could find a partner. But 29 percent cited an inducement to leaving the car behind that's beyond anyone's control: better weather.
A full 85 percent said they believed the program should be continued, and 84 percent said the giveaways to businesses and other incentives encouraged them to visit downtown locations other than their workplace. The program offers new participants a packet of information about and coupons for downtown businesses, C-Tran transit, and local activities.
Project manager Jennifer Campos, an employee in the city's long-range planning department, said those results contributed to the city's decision to continue and possibly expand its outreach program this year. The city is looking at including Clark College and Uptown Village in the program, adding more downtown business and program partners, and reaching out at more community events.

Publisher's Letter
A graduate of the University of Michigan, Gaines arrived in New York in 1970 and landed a job with a now defunct weekly newspaper, New York's Herald. He subsequently worked at Saturday Review, Newsweek and WNET-TV before joining PEOPLE. AS assistant managing editor, Gaines especially enjoyed producing fast-breaking cover stories. "Those are the ones in which a staff's mettle is tested," he says, "and they present a special challenge to excel. My best recollections as an editor aren't of things that I've done but of watching what other people can do at times like that."
An "enthusiastic amateur" musician, Gaines still plays the piano he rebuilt at age 12, an 85-key, 19th-century Steinway. He is the author of two books, The Lives of the Piano, a collection of essays, and Wit's End: Days and Nights of the Algonquin Round Table, a literary biography. His wife, Pamela, is a neuroscientist at New York State Psychiatric Institute, where she is "currently doing research on animal models of depression," says Gaines. "No, I'm not one of her subjects." They live in Brooklyn with a daughter, Allison, 11.
During the past three years, Gaines has conducted extensive interviews with Mark David Chapman, the convicted killer of John Lennon, and he sees Chapman as "an extreme case" of the kind of subject that PEOPLE handles best. "Since coming here two years after the magazine started, I've seen us get a lot better at reporting our main story, that is, how people tick, particularly public people," he says. "I think our stories are richer and more understanding than they used to be. Our challenge, now that we are in some danger of becoming an institution, is to keep getting better—smarter, funnier, more entertaining—and above all to remain unpredictable."

Turtles Invade JFK Airport, Cause Flight Delays
by Kate AulettaPosted Jun 29th 2011 11:15 AMUpdated Jun 30th 2011 11:39 AM
Getty File
JetBlue airlines tweeted at around 9:30am that there were flight delays as the runway was being cleared of turtles, saying: "JFK is experiencing delays as the airport clears turtles off the runway. #cantmakethisup (Check flight status at jetblue.com.)."
Officials told the New York Post that, indeed, several turtles climbed onto the tarmac, delaying some flights.
Odd as it may seem, this isn't the first time turtles have disrupted flights at JFK. In July 2009, a runway at JFK was shut down after 78 turtles emerged from a bay and crawled onto the tarmac. Ground crews rounded up the turtles and returned them to the water.
An FAA spokesman told the Associated Press at the time, "Apparently, this is something the tower has experienced before. I guess it's the season for spawning."
UPDATE: Port Authority spokesman Ron Marsico told MSNBC that 150 turtles came out of the bay to lay their eggs on a sandy beach area across the runway, adding "staff has been out there since quarter to 7 this morning relocating them."

When asked what she likes about Pro Mujer she answered that she likes to share with the women, and she likes the clinic.
In the photo you can see the younger sister of one of the members who accompanies her to the disbursements. She is wearing sky-blue.

Cuando se le consulta qué le gusta de Pro Mujer, ella responde que le gusta compartir con las señoras y el consultorio.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Skip to comments.Obama Woke The Sleeping Giant
Posted on 03/22/2008 7:38:34 AM PDT by AmericaTalks
Barack Obama has based his entire candidacy on one thing. He wanted to be the first African-American to run for the presidency keeping the issue of race as far into the background as possible. And he almost succeeded in pulling the wool over America's eyes.
His good looks and charismatic appeal made many people view him as the next JFK. Some even thought of him as the second coming of Jesus Christ. We've all seen the pictures of him wowing the crowds with his oratories, women swooning, men cheering. And these were people of all races and creeds, desperate for a candidate who could transcend the barrier of hatred that has so divided this country over its entire history. Even those of us who are conservative, and who despise the misguided vision of the left had to admit that here was a man who broke through the walls that have kept our nation disunited for some 200-plus years.
But wait.
Were we really that far apart? What I mean is...the wounds of racial hatred have, over the past 20 years or so, been healing. The average American, black and white, doesn't harbor any ill will over those of other ethnicities. Most of us get along quite well. We didn't need a guy like Obama to remind us that race should not be an issue. The fact that he was embraced by the voting public should have been an indication that America was ready to put bigotry behind it and accept a black candidate.
And then Obama blew it.
We suddenly find out that we knew absolutely nothing about this guy called Barack Obama. For twenty years, he attended a church in Chicago pastored by a racist whose hatred for America, and especially whites in America, is blatant. Reverend Jeremiah Wright believes our nation was responsible for the attacks of 9-11, and that aids was created to exterminate the black race.
Obama then gave a speech in which acted as an apologist for Wright and refused to disown him. In fact, he continues to embrace him.
That's when the sleeping giant was awakened. The campaign that was supposed to eliminate color suddenly found itself embroiled in controversy. Obama pulled the scabs from the healing wounds of racial divide and now the issue of race is on the front burner.
Will Obama's candidacy be hurt by this? Most certainly. Will his continued association with this church be scrutinized? Absolutely. Will Hillary Clinton and John McCain benefit? You bet.
Will America suffer?
It already has.
Listen to America Talks Monday through Thursday at 6 pm eastern time at www.blogtalkradio.com/americatalks. Visit our website at www.americatalks.com.
If you want to see just how much better races relations have improved, eliminate welfare and welfare-related entitlement spending. Then, sit back and feel the love.
*screech* Say what? He looks like the bastard child of Sammy Davis Jr and Howdy Doody.
Thats because Lincoln was, A typical Whitey.
> The fact that he was embraced by the voting public should have been an indication that America was ready to put bigotry behind it and accept a black candidate.
And then Obama blew it.<
To me, that says it all.
Can't prove this to me from what I've been seeing around here for the past several years. If anything there is more tension and consciousness of Race as the Race Baiters have been left to run amok. I think we're going backwards in very many ways.
"Can't we all just get along"? /s
tagline maintenance
LOL That is the most accurate description of him I have ever heard.
Didn't Allan Keys run for President? Actually, I liked him...I thought he was a very conservative individual.
Even white liberals will stumble into the truth once in a while.
You should add, with Mickey Mouse ears, to that discription.
What I want to know is what Oprah has to say about Obama's paster.
"Were we really that far apart?"
The only things that are keeping us far apart is the mindset that permeates "black liberation theology," the so-called "black leaders" such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, and the liberal victicrat ideology that has been spoon-fed to blacks by leftists.
These people will go to great lengths to keep the division alive, to keep the wedge driven into race relations as far as possible, because without it they have no lucrative job, they enjoy no power, and they hold no congregation or base of voters.
People like Obama and his pastor are the REASON for the racial divide.
""the wounds of racial hatred have, over the past 20 years or so, been healing. ""
And then along came Johnny Cochran and OJ Simpson - to stoke the fires once again and off we went! That was a big set back and we'll probably never get where we were before that.
Oops. Argh....bad editing!
"The only things that are keeping us far apart are: ...."
There will always be a certain percentage of racists in society, within each race. However, things have certainly changed since the 60's. I don't know how much they have changed in the past 20 years, but in the past 40 years, there is a huge difference.
But as long as there are programs like affirmative action, which favor one group over another only on the basis of race, there will always be a certain amount of resentment on both sides because of the unfairness of the system, on the one hand, and the frustrated sense of entitlement on the other. Frustrated, because the basic premise seems to be that opportunity equals success - a formula which raises expectations but cannot fulfill its promises.
I'm afraid that this all happened too far away from Election Day. It will probably be forgotten by the GE in November.
What's your opinion? Is there a chance this will kill his chances of getting the Dem nomination? If he does get past the Dem Convention, will this help John McCain in the Fall?
Obama not as black as he claims he is. White mother, father roughly 95% Arab, 5% black. Now who do you think he is playing to?
Don't forget Affirmative Action and Government-forced integration.
I read somewhere that Oprah attended this church until her handlers told her to stop. Can anyone verify this?
I enjoyed reading your profile page. Very interesting.
I listened to a youtube video of Dr. Manning that spoke of racism and Black history. He's right about this: if in over 400 years Blacks have not changed their situation, it is not others' fault.
I for one am tired of being accused of something that I had no part in, and of seeing Black "culture" get a pass on its own racism.
And Betty Davis eyes.
Have you seen a picture of obama's father, not his step father? His father is 100% black, one of those Africans that is the blackest black you have ever seen. His religion may have been muslim but he was not a brown skinned Arab. I am surprised that obama is as light as he is.
Did the number of frontrow fainters top out at 7 or 9? Haven't heard of any lately.
Talk about Obama as the second coming of Christ! I think that is exactly the imagery his campaign is attempting to convey. Check out the picture of Obama floating in the clouds on the Obama website: http://www.barackobama.com/index.php
I can't stop snickering.
Once read that collectively people are stupid but take a person one-to-one and the person shows remarkable intelligence.
Maybe he uses that stuff Michael Jackson does.
Will America suffer?
It already has.
Don't forget his liver lips. Blech.
I gotta tell ya, this "reverse discrimination" phrase irritates the hell out of me. As if discrimination were a one way street. . .
Gotta love those purple/blue lips, though... Not too many people have those.
Obama's still better than Hillary.
I probably became a confirmed Republican while observing the Democrats' fawning adulation of John Kennedy. Kennedy was a mediocre man and a mediocre President. I think he had some charisma, but, for the most part, it was lost on me. I never thought he was particularly good looking and concluded that charisma must have elevated his personal appearance and his general mediocrity in the minds of those affected by his charisma.
Time has been kind to Kennedy in my opinion. He was certainly a better President than the Democrats who followed him.
Jackie Kennedy was intelligent and well educated, and she had a good sense of humor (as did her husband)--all charming qualities--but she also had qualities that were not admirable.
All in all, I see nothing in particular to admire about the Kennedys.
This is one of the worst criticisms of Democrats: They have bad judgment. They are shallow. They consistently mistake mediocrity for greatness. The Democrat Party is a magnet for self-serving and sociopathic leaders and ill-informed, unintelligent followers who are poor judges of character--or anything else. They tend to value intentions over results. By the uncontradicted admission of their operatives, they place no value on character, morality, or truth. And they obviously consider the objective to be justification for any means taken.
I am certainly not unaware of the deficiencies of the Republican Party, but Republicans tower over Democrats in everything of value.
Sorry. Didn't notice your lips service before I posted mine.
And to punish O'Bambino we're going to re-elect the Arkie grifters to the third term come November. Hip hip Hurray!
We see it played out daily by these two.
What you said..yeah.
Did that stuff make M.Jacksons nose rot off?
Is it just me or is the sleeping giant taking more naps? I wonder if the giant can stay awake and remember all this until November? I'm guessing not.

AFTER: (This 7 foot beauty got quite the makeover!)
I'm so excited to reveal my Michael's Dream Tree! We loved being able to participate again this year. I found all of my items for my tree at Michaels Craft Stores. I love homemade ornaments & below I will share how I made 3 different ones for my Dream Tree.
I LOVE how the blues, silver & white in my new tree design tie into our family room. Sharing all of the details below!
First I started decorating my tree using shinny silver mesh ribbon, silver beaded garland, & blue shiny ribbon. I took each one and wrapped a layer on the tree. The key is to push the ribbon into the the tree. This will give it depth and allow space for ornaments.
I found these adorable frames…just $2 a piece! I LOVE frames on trees but since I didn't need pink for my tree…I broke out the spray paint.
You can see how I changed the colors to match my tree. I also used Rhonna Designs' Christmas images to make these mini pictures for the frames. I LOVE that reindeer!
I made mini "silky" pom poms for my tree using 3 inch foam balls I found at Michaels. I followed this easy pom pom tutorial. These add a bit of "Fancy-shmancy" to the tree. I used a 1.5 inch circle as a pattern.
And my favorite ornaments….homemade sunburst mirror ornaments! These were so fun and easy to make! I will be sharing how to make these mini sunburst mirrors next week with the full tutorial.
I fell in love with these mini ceramic, white, sparkly birds. I just added some clear string to the top and voila…hanging beautiful bird ornaments.
And I topped it off with several of these pretties…feathers and sparkly sprays.
I truly was blown away at the Christmas decor ideas at Michaels this year! The possibilities were endless! Fun little tidbits to know when shopping at Michaels this holiday season!
