Learning Disabilities (LD) are manifested by significant problems in listening, understanding, speaking, reading, writing, reasoning, or mathematical ability. The LD may be mild or severe. Some people with LD have trouble performing tasks when instructions are too rapid to process; this is sometimes mistaken for carelessness or lower intelligence. While children may have LD detected at school, many adults struggle without receiving the proper diagnosis and help. Due to the many forms of LD, it is important that an individual receive proper testing and treatment.

Skip to comments.Times Reporter Who Resigned Leaves Long Trail of Deception
Posted on 05/10/2003 10:29:40 AM PDT by sarcasm
click here to read article
This is a scathing indictment of standards and practices at the NYT. And they wonder why we hate them so for making up the news.
First CNN, now The Times. Who's next?
As long as your output is high, the managers are not going to question how you get your info.
"As Washington Post columnist Howard Kurtz pointed out on his CNN show "Reliable Sources" Blair is (relatively) young, probably about 27 years old, and BLACK."
I will bet he isn't the only reporter who does that. I have repeatedly questioned the "unnamed sources" that the Times is so fond of using.
As I suspected, some unnamed sources are figments of the writer's imagination.
Right. Now send that guy to the editorial board.
..and this News...SOP for the TNY Times. :)
Raines was on PBS news last night SPINNING like he was Carville & Begala combined. Sunday they're susposed to EXPOSE all of the LIES they've accidentally printed and STOOD BEHIND over the 4 years of this AFFIRMATIVE ACTION reporter. Proof the PETER PRINCIPLE still applies. I'm looking for a lot of chatter on this subject next week. Should be fun.
Don't reporters either 1) have a corporate credit card to charge expenses on, or 2) get reimbursed for travel expenses? And in either case, don't they have to get travel authorizations signed for by their supervisor? I just find it hard to believe that it took so long for the Times to find out that he did not travel to the places he claimed to be reporting from. You would figure that their first clue would be the lack of expenses from these places.
Of course, affirmative action had NOTHING to do with it. 23-year-old white reporters without college degrees get to start their careers at the New York Times all the time. (/sarcasm)
Used properly to protect a whistleblower or witness to a crime, the unnamed source can be of great service to the public. However their usage has been totally abused and needs to be reined in. We need to keep harping on that, because journalists and their editors won't stop abusing it unless held accountable.
Why Not...Jimmah Cartar got the Nobel Peace Prize.. :|
Between the first coverage of the sniper attacks in late October and late April, Mr. Blair filed articles claiming to be from 20 cities in six states. Yet during those five months, hedid not submit a single receipt for a hotel room, rental car or airplane ticket, officials at The Times said.
How does this blatant and flagrant flouting of all rules jive with the finds of the investigation, "The investigation suggests several reasons Mr. Blair's deceits went undetected for so long: a failure of communication among senior editors; few complaints from the subjects of his articles;his savviness and his ingenious ways of covering his tracks."?
On an expense report filed in January, for example, he indicated that he had bought blankets at a Marshall's department store in Washington; the receipt showed that the purchase was made at a Marshall's in Brooklyn.
Never mind the location difference -- how in the world would blankets be a justifiable work expense?
Drugs? Gambling?
FR doesn't seem to have any trouble rooting out journalistic deception.
And yet, "Bush knew!"
That's email@example.com, folks.
Where to begin? Just have Howie Raines resign, junk the NYT and start over.
Like most liberal liars in the lamestream media.
Usually when you think of fraud, you think of unusually high expenses or billings being claimed.
Few think of unusually low expenses or no claims for legitimate expenses as a sign of fraudulent activity.
Uh, isn't Jayson Blair following in the grand tradition established by Walter Duranty?
en days ago, Jayson Blair resigned as a reporter for The New York Times after the discovery that he had plagiarized parts of an article on April 26 about the Texas family of a soldier missing in Iraq. An article on Page 1 today recounts a chain of falsifications and plagiarism that unraveled when The Times began an inquiry into that Texas article. At least 36 articles written by Mr. Blair since October reflected plagiarism, misstatements, misrepresentation of the reporter's whereabouts or a combination of those. An accounting of the flaws will be found on the right side of this page, under "Related."
Today's article and the accounting result from a weeklong investigation by five Times reporters and a team of researchers. The newspaper organized it in the belief that the appropriate corrective for flawed journalism is better journalism accurate journalism.
The reporters have telephoned news sources cited by Mr. Blair and have interviewed other journalists who worked with him. Executives have read them summaries of telephone records and expense documents. To examine the newsroom processes that went awry, they have had unrestricted access to other Times staff members, including top editors, involved with Mr. Blair's copy and the management of his career. Within the limits of laws and ethical codes governing health and employment records, Times managers have described documents for the reporting team.
The reporters' examination has centered on the last seven months, a period in which Mr. Blair increasingly received assignments distant from the newsroom, which allowed him wider independence. His earlier work, done under closer supervision, will be spot-checked. If another major examination appears warranted, it will be carried out. Readers and news sources who know of defects in additional articles should send e-mail to The Times: retrace@ nytimes.com.
In online databases that include copy from The Times, cautionary notices will be attached to the faulty articles in coming days.
The Times regrets that it did not detect the journalistic deceptions sooner. A separate internal inquiry, by the management, will examine the newsroom's processes for training, assignment and accountability.
For all of the falsifications and plagiarism, The Times apologizes to its readers in the first instance, and to those who have figured in improper coverage. It apologizes, too, to those whose work was purloined and to the hundreds of conscientious journalists whose professional trust has been betrayed by this episode.
Most of the other reporters write to fit the template also.
Apparently they are better at covering their tracks.
There are people here on this board who were questioning the veracity of Jayson Blair's reporting even as the Times remained blissfully ignorant.
If we, who are not in the newsroom, can detect error (or outright fabrication) why cannot editors of the sainted Times?
Because they don't want to, that's why...
No, it suggests that the fact-checking was nil, as long as what he wrote conformed to the editor's prejudices.

High school notebook: Heritage Hall's Quintaz Struble to visit Wyoming
Heritage Hall senior Quintaz Struble, an Oklahoman first-team All-State defensive lineman, will take an official visit to Wyoming this weekend.
Struble had scholarship offers from Arizona and Colorado State, but both offers were put on hold when each school fired its respective coach — Mike Stoops at Arizona and Steve Fairchild at CSU.
Struble recorded 62 tackles and eight sacks as a senior, but he was forced to miss Heritage Hall's last four games because of a torn MCL suffered in the Chargers' regular-season finale at Kingfisher.
Midwest City offensive lineman Carlos Freeman was one of a handful of state players to travel to San Antonio for the U.S. Army National Combine, which was held in conjunction with the U.S. Army All-American Bowl earlier this month. Freeman (6-foot-3, 280 pounds) made quite an impression, being the only Oklahoma player listed on Rivals.com's All-Combine Team. Freeman was an honorable mention selection.
Freeman also wrestles for the Bombers. The combine features approximately 500 juniors from around the country. Other state players who participated included Edmond Santa Fe's Khari Harding and Trevan Smith, Douglass' Dior Smiley and Dion'Tay Washington, Edmond North's Heath Newland, Westmoore's James West, McAlester's Devin Rolan and Tahlequah-Sequoyah's Brayden Scott.
Deer Creek wide receiver Hunter Dinkines committed to play his college football at Southwestern Oklahoma State in Weatherford. Dinkines had 711 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns during his senior year for the Antlers, who finished the season 7-4 with a playoff berth. Dinkines' father, Bill, was a standout player for Putnam City West, when it finished 14-0 and won the Class 4A state championship in 1981.
The month of January has been kind to Burlington sharpshooter Garrett Butler. The Southern Nazarene signee has averaged 37.1 points per game in January with 51 rebounds, 32 assists and 26 steals in seven games. He has shot 53 percent from 3-point range and 61 percent inside the arc.
In only one of those seven games has he played the fourth quarter, that being a 40-point performance against Pond Creek-Hunter in the finals of the Cherokee Tournament, a 65-55 Burlington win.
He also had a 37-point half against Attica, Kan., with a 16-of-19 shooting performance. He set the Cherokee Tournament record with 46 in the semifinals, and last Friday, he scored 50 points against Medford, again coming out after three quarters.
In January, "Garrett has played as well as any player I have coached in my 33 years," coach Randy Turney said.
Burlington will take part in the Cherokee Strip Conference Tournament in Enid Thursday-Saturday.

Cedar Rapids Gazette (Newspaper) - January 27, 1974, Cedar Rapids, Iowa Seven Job Slots for Firefighter Aides By Mike Dvuprce .The city will officially lake over administration of some federal manpower training programs I'eb. 1, including a program, new (his year, dial has evoked an especially largo amount of enthusiasm. Notes The new program is called "new and will re- siill-ii all goes as expected in Ihe addition of seven fire- fighters in about a year. Seven spots are available in (he program. The city has decided to use all of (hem this year to train firefighter aides. The seven who qualify will work as aides for a year, learning how the department oprralos. They will be paid 80 percent of (he starting salary of a regular firefighter, about 53.20 per hour. They will work a 411-hour week, of which ten will be devoted to schooling and counseling. "It's not a formal, cnnlrac- tural agreement, nothing on explained Ron Kuhl- man, deputy personnel direc- tor. "But it Is expected they would be hired at the end of the year, assuming they pass the civil service tests." 9 e s TO BE eligible for partici- pation in Ihe new careers pro- gram, which is 100 percent federally funded by the de- partment of labor, an appli- cant must come under federal low-income guidelines and be unemployed or under- employed. The applicant, must also fit one or more of the following five criteria: (1) A high school dropout; (2) Be han- dicapped physically, mentally or emotionally; (3) Under age 22; (4) Age 45 or over; (5) A member of a minority group. The decision to use all seven snots this year as firefighter aides automatically elimi- nates persons in the second and fourth groups, and limits members of the third group to applicants 20 or 21 years of age. because the minimum age for firefighters is 21. "Applicants for those posi- tions need to meet the Cedar Rapids civil service require- ments as well as the depart- ment of labor disadvantaged Kuhlman said. Applicants in the first cate- gory, high school dropouls, will work toward their equiva- lency diploma while on the job. The fifth' category, members of minority groups, has prompted a lot of specula- tion that the new careers pro- gram will be used as a device to integrate the fire depart- ment. Safety Commissioner James Steinbeck said that isn't the purpose of the program, .but he'll be pleased if it's one of the results. "Hopefully, this will break Ihe ice in the fire department, but there's.no way to guaran- tee he said. Steinbeck believes the pro- gram will be a big help, bolh to potential firefighters and to veterans, whether or not it at- tracts black applicants. Because the aides will work directly with firefighters for a full year, and receive weekly evaluations, the program pro- vides a good method of adding new men to the force. The weekly evaluations, and supportive services offered to help with weak points during the first year, will also be beneficial. After Ihe year. Steinbeck explained! Ihe seven aides will have an excellent background for their new jobs and currenl members of the department will know the aides, both per- sonally and professionally. O C 9 THE SAFETY commissioner said he would like to see fu- ture programs, either through new careers or something similar, used to form a police cadet program. Resides the new careers program, the city will ad- Ihe Operation Main- stream, Neighborhood Youth Corps (NYC) and summer NYC programs. Those, programs were for- merly administered by the Jlawkeye Area Community Action Program (HACAP) in l.inn, Jones and Johnson coun- ties. The comprehcasivc educa- tion and training act changed that, providing that in coun- ties with cilies of more than population, the mayor of Ihe city is the prime spon- sor of the programs. (In other counties, the gov- ernor is tho sponsor. Governor Ray has designated HACAP as the administering tody for the six other counties in Area Ten.) Mayor Donah! Canncy dele- gated the authority for ad- ministering the Unn county program to the city personnel department. It is kept independent of the manpower office, so the pro- gram can be objectively moni- tored and evaluated by the manpower coordinator. The staff has considerable experience in federally-funded training programs. Kuhlman has directed the Public Em- ployment Program (PEP) since 1971. Project director is Larry Harmon, who served in the same capacity at IIACAP. The counselor is Robert Putt, who has worked with bolh the PEP and Public Service Care- ers (PSC) programs. "Because Mr. Harmon is fa- miliar with Ihe programs, we have persuaded him to come to the city as program direc- Kuhlman said. "We have two staff members that are very familiar with depart- ment of labor policy and the philosophy of the programs." .FOUR more persons are needed to complete the staff. Interviews were held last week for an accounting clerk, a clerk-stenographer and two operation coordinators. Explaining the duties of the coordinators, Harmon said, "They're going to do recruit- ment and work with the par- ticipants. Assessment of an applicant or a participant is going to be a big part of their job." The coordinators will also set up a program for each participant, including the.sup- porlive services each individ- ual requires. The department of labor has authorized an initial grant of for all the programs. In the case of new careers, that's for a whole year, but It covers less time for the other programs. Both PEP and PSC are being phased out. PSC ends March 14 and PEP ends June 30. Funding for NYC, summer NYC and Operation Main- stream covers the programs through August. All the programs have things in common; all are for persons who fit low-income guidelines, all have the goal of permanent job placement, and in all cases the jobs must be with public or non-profit private organizations. The differences come in the support systems provided or in the requirements for eligi- bility. PEP is basically a device to help the unemployed get back to work in a time of slack economy. PSC is more of a training program, for disadvanlaged persons in the area of human services. NYC is for persons aged 14 lo 21. Operation Mainstream servos persons 10 and over, and at least .10 percent of cnrollecs must be 45 or older. "Wo Ihink these programs will be a valuable tool in get- ting low-income and disadvan- taged persons into gainful em- ploymcnl, which they other- wise might not bo able lo said Personnel Director Fred Nordengrcn. 9 e BECAUSE of the various eli- gibility requirements and the methods used lo calculate Ihe SAN ANTONIO, Fla.

Taking an active role in the community is a longstanding tradition of the board. Members support such projects such as Toys For Tots, Arts Dayton, the United Way and the Muse Machine. As part of the "Partners in Education" program, the board teamed up with Ruskin Elementary school and raises over $24,000 yearly in support of the students in Dayton Public Schools.

An archipelago nation located 450 km south of India, the Maldives comprises some 1,200 islands, of which about one hundred are tourist resorts. The islands' hotels offer out-of-this-world getaways featuring diving, pampering and a whole range of oceanside luxuries.
The Maldives are rightly considered to be the promised land for high-end tourism. Located in the heart of the Indian Ocean, scattered from north to south over an area of more than 800 km, the tropical archipelago is the perfect example of what island landscapes offer the most discerning of guests: breathtakingly beautiful atolls, protected lagoons, immaculate beaches and stunning sea beds. The idea of holidaying in the Maldives in luxury, fully equipped island hotels appeals primarily to European and Asian guests who are looking to relax and enjoy a host of water-based activities.
While coming to the islands to do sightseeing is relatively rare, most visitors come to recharge their batteries and take advantage of a range of water sports. Boat trips to go sport fishing, snorkelling, sailing and scuba diving to search for coral and tropical fish are the preferred activities of tourists. With hotels more often than not equipped with spas, the Maldives are the ideal place to escape to in winter to get away from the bad weather and the stresses and strains of everyday urban life. And a stay on the islands is not without a bit of Maldivian society. A day spent in the capital, Malé, represents an opportunity to sample the everyday life of the islands' inhabitants who strongly embrace Islamic culture.
Located in the south of the Maldivian archipelago, this island-resort boasts a five-star eco-hotel nestled in lush vegetation. Tropical happiness at its purest! Kunfunadhoo Island is said to be ""at the end of the world"". In the far south of the Maldives, this islet in the Baa atoll, a 30-minute flight or two-hour boat ride from the capital Malé, is an unrivalled tropical paradise. Its crystalline waters and white sandy beaches fringed with frangipani, coconut and palm trees prompted the Soneva Fushi hotel to choose this as the setting to welcome its very special guests. The island's compact 40 hectares are criss-crossed by a network of pathways leading to secluded beaches and romantic hideaways. At nightfall, guests can watch the sun set over the Indian Ocean from the comfort of their villa with private terrace, before observing the night sky through a telescope…
Sustainable luxury resort. A turqoise lagoon, beaches with soft white sand and luscious vegetation – that's the gorgeous setting of Soneva Fushi: protected by its own house reef, a gem of an island, where turtles nest. Designed to be in total harmony with the environment, the villas with palm-thatched roofs hide amongst the trees; set right on the beach and opening out towards nature, they make you feel as if you're the only person there. A modern take on Robinson Crusoe, it is easy to forget everyday life on the edge of the Indian Ocean, or in the spa, swimming amongst fish, admiring manta rays in one of the most stunning diving locations of the world or picnicking on a desert island. ...

(Backdated to Sunday to make the transplant dates work. Written on Monday June 11, 2012).
On Friday there was more rain and another batch of hail. The gardens are really suffering. Spinach which looked great a week ago is yellowed and bolting, the tomatoes are yellowed (and it rained before I could get them all staked, so I am crossing my fingers and hoping that my emergency staking and pruning will protect them from blight), beans and seedlings are torn up, and the soil was super wet until today.
Given that I have maybe 100 more frost free days (with some emergency row cover application if necessary) I felt I had no choice this weekend but to work the wet soil. On Saturday I managed to get the tiller to work: after clearing long weeds I tilled the beds which held beans/peas in 2011. I also tilled over the area that I had dug by hand and the space which I had previously tilled after a heavy rainfall.
On Sunday I hilled the soil up to make beds for corn, squash and greens (in the spot where the beans/peas were last year.) I also hilled up 50' long raised beds in the dug & tilled area. Then I transplanted the peppers and eggplants. At the end of the eggplant row I planted the 'Kakai Hulless' pumpkins.
Today (Monday) I got up at 5:30 and worked in the garden until about 10:30. By which time it was 27 with a humidex of 33. I planted pickling cucumbers, three kinds of watermelon, corn, and winter squash. We're supposed to get 5mm of rain tomorrow which I hope will be just enough to water the transplants and the seeds, but not so much as to flood the garden.

Cripes! I hate hail…it's one of my biggest garden nightmares. Blight's the other.
Sounds like you're shepherding your flocks well, though…there's only so much we can do when nature starts throwing icy rocks at our plants.
Which reminds me, I haven't staked my tomatoes either, and need to get on that right away!
you have really been getting a lot of rain and not so great weather. I hope all straightens out soon and you can relax a bit as far as the weather and plants go. Those chickens are looking good. :-)
@blurdom thanks, "there's only so much we can do when nature starts throwing icy rocks at our plants" gave me a good chuckle – especially since I actually started trying to tell the hail to stop in the most recent attack; good thing my neighbours are not close by enough to hear me!
@glgardener yes, lots of rain. Last year we had lots of rain until about the first week of June and then basically no rain until late July, I'm not sure which is worst. It's raining again today, though it at least seems fairly slow & steady. I was looking at my garden map and I'm nearly back on track time-wise, so I'm hopeful that in a few weeks I will be able to get into a pretty good harvest, weed, water, pattern.
Oh my….sounds like more than your fair share of roadblocks. The garden does look beautiful in that image. I hope things get better.

Winter storm blankets Great Plains with snow
Areas in western Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle also had up to 8 inches of snow by Thursday morning. Christy Walker, a waitress at the Polly Anna Cafe in Woodward, Okla., got stuck on her drive into work. But business in the western Oklahoma town was brisk, she said.
"It's affecting everybody who is hungry and wants to come out to eat," she said. "I'm extremely busy right now."
Elsewhere, Arkansas saw a mix of precipitation - in places, a combination of hail, sleet and freezing rain, others saw 6 inches of snow. Forecasters warned northern Arkansas could get a half-inch of ice.
Two fatal accidents were attributed to winter weather on Wednesday. In Oklahoma, 18-year-old Cody Alexander of Alex, Okla., died when his pickup truck skidded on a slushy state highway into oncoming traffic and struck a truck. And in Nebraska, 19-year-old Kristina Leigh Anne Allen of Callaway died when a SUV lost control in snowy, icy conditions, crossed the median and struck her car.
Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency Thursday morning and activated the State Emergency Operations Center. By midmorning Thursday, the snow was coming down so hard that Kansas City International Airport shut down. More than 200 flights were also canceled by Thursday afternoon at Lambert Airport in St. Louis.
Alex Sosnowski, a meteorologist for Accuweather, said the storm will push off into the Great Lakes and central Appalachians, and freezing rain could make it as far east and south as North Carolina. He also said a "spin-off" storm was expected to create heavy snow in New England, and could push Boston to a February record.
Accuweather said that by the time the storm dies out, at least 24 states will be affected.

I managed to find the location which is very close to Hendon station. I've never had this kind of treatment before so I wasn't sure what to expect. Cristina the therapist was very good and explained how the treatment works and made me feel completely at ease. I felt great afterwards and she was really helpful in giving me and my daughters tips re improving our circulation and looking after our skin. I would thoroughly recommend and would visit again.
Difficult to find but once we arrived (I was late) they were great! It was better than I expected and would use them again. The deep tissue massage was very relaxing and felt absolutely divine. I think I'll try some of the other treatments on offer! The staff were very friendly and attentive.

Chocolate-Peanut Spread (Make Your Own Nutella)
Deb Perelman, the clever cook behind the Smitten Kitchen blog, creates her version of Nutella
IngredientsNumber of servings: Yields about 1 3/4 cups
- 2 cups raw peanuts, shelled and skinned
- 1/2 cup dark, rich unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
- 3 tbs. peanut oil
- 1
Heat oven to 400° F. Spread peanuts evenly on cookie sheet. Roast until they darken, about 10 minutes, rattling them around a bit halfway through so they toast evenly. (If unable to find raw peanuts, toast for 5 minutes to deepen flavor.)
- 2
Transfer peanuts to food processor and grind for about 5 minutes. They'll become a paste and, finally, they'll liquefy. Scrape down sides as needed.
- 3
Add cocoa, sugar, salt, and 2 tbs. oil to food processor and continue to process until well blended, about 1 minute. Add more salt if needed. Add remaining oil if consistency seems too thick.
- 4
Store in refrigerator for up to a week in covered container. When fully chilled, it will become thick like peanut butter.
How to make it
Thanks! You're on our list.
And your life's about to get more interesting.

Thank you! Thank You!! I developed an allergy to hazelnuts as an adult, but I can eat peanuts. I loved Nutella as a kid, and I'm so glad to have found this recipe!!
Nutella is made from hazelnuts…not peanuts.
that is very true. And just to throw it out there…Justin's makes a bunch of different varieties of "nut butters" that are pretty awesome! <–and natural!

Both fairly and unfairly, online education was seen as a world of simple micro-correspondence courses, limited in quality, incapable of producing outcomes truly commensurate with on-campus education and therefore merely a supplement, not… Read More

stylish with function
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
- Fit: Runs large
In the words of my sister: " Very warm but not very bulky, which I really like. I think the sizing runs a little bit big (I normally wear a Large and I got a medium and it's a little big on me, the sleeves were long and I had to get them hemmed). I like the big hood (blocks the wind) and the toggles to use when I don't feel like zipping it all the way up. Overall great coat!"
I usually wear small tops in prAna and there is no difference with this jacket. I'm always concerned with whether or not to size up when buying jackets to have room for sweaters, long sleeves and layers but, this jacket has plenty of room for all of those things. I love the casual look of this jacket and as the weather gets cooler I know it'll be one of my go to's in my closet.

Do You Have A Favorite Quote?
Posted May 26, 2009 by peta2 staff
There are a lot of great quotes about animal rights. Do you have a favorite?
Here are some which I really like from Isaac Bashevis Singer, a Nobel Laureate, who became vegetarian after drawing connections between atrocities faced by human beings and the systematic exploitation of animals at slaughterhouses.
"How can we pray to God for mercy if we ourselves have no mercy?"
"[M]y vegetarianism is a great protest. And I dream that there may be a whole religion based on protest … against everything which is not just: about the fact that there is so much sickness, so much death, so much cruelty. My vegetarianism is my religion, and it's part of my protest against the conduct of the world."
Very powerful! If you're not already vegetarian, what are you waiting for? And everyone should check out ways to get more active on our Take Charge page.
P.S. Silverstein's new video is cool. I like the latest from Rise Against, too.

Here's my favorite quote about animals and animal rights.
"All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than othes."
-George Orwell
Humans are animals too, and specisists think that some animals are more important or more valuable than others; like cats over cows, dogs over pigs, etc.

OMG. There are so many to choose from. So I'll choose 4.
1. Ask the experimenters why they experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are like us." Ask the experimenters why it is morally OK to experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are not like us." Animal experimentation rests on a logical contradiction. — Professor Charles R.Magel
2.The question is not, can they reason? Nor, can they talk? But, can they suffer? — Jeremy Bentham
3.We have enslaved the rest of the animal creation, and have treated our distant cousins in fur and feathers so badly that beyond doubt, if they were able to formulate a religion, they would depict the Devil in human form. ~William Ralph Inge, Outspoken Essays, 1922
4."We want people to recognise that all animals, not just humans, deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. In order to protect the welfare of animals, we must respect their right not be hurt and killed by human beings who should know better. The world believes in human rights because we are capable of feeling physical and emotional pain, and because we have a will to live. But all animals share these features, and so, logically, we should honour their rights." –Dan Lyons
I had to put them all up, because they all bring up really good points, and they make people think :0]

From beasts we scorn as soulless,

Skip to comments.APNewsBreak: Suit may stop SC presidential primary
Posted on 10/18/2011 4:40:00 PM PDT by mandaladon
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- South Carolina lacks the authority to conduct a 2012 presidential primary, according to a lawsuit filed by four counties at the state Supreme Court.
The counties, in a case filed Monday, argue a 2008 primary law doesn't apply to running a 2012 primary. They argue the state Election Commission lacks the authority to conduct the primary and enter a contract with the state Republican Party to pay for it. And they say the commission can't require counties to cover expenses for the GOP primary.
The counties said they "are on the precipice of having to expend precious public funds to conduct what is wholly a private function on behalf of a private political party."
The lawsuit names the state Election Commission and the state Republican and Democratic parties.
State GOP Executive Director Matt Moore said the primary is part of the state's law. "It's clearly written in this year's budget law that the state should be involved with the 2012 primary so any claim otherwise is wrong," Moore said. He said the primary is an important public function, not a private operation.
The litigation was filed hours after a meeting between county voting officials and the state Election Commission and caps weeks of arguments about counties getting stuck with the tab for putting on the primary.
The Supreme Court has not decided to hear the case. If it did, and ruled in the counties' favor, legislators could be forced to come into session to pass a special primary law as deadlines loom for the Jan. 21 contest. The state has to have names to put on the ballot by Nov. 1 and it has to have overseas absentee ballots in the mail by Dec. 7.

South Carolina lacks the authority to conduct a 2012 presidential primary
Holy cow. Not a primary at all? Thank God Florida moved up their primary or we seriously would have blue states picking our candidate. If South Carolina drops out of the primary season it would not be good. What is the governor doing about this. She should be all over the media exposing this and coming up with conclusions for correcting this. She has been too quite lately anyway.
Somewhere, hidden from all of us, are panicked Establishment Republicans.
Somehow I feel this is designed to hurt Cain.
Oh Geez....Great. The state is broke so I may not get a choice in the Presidential Race......Some Freeper vote Herman Cain for me...LOL
So let me see if I understand this correctly. A lawsuit was filed. The Supreme Court is not going to hear the case. So it is, shall we say, a moot point. Or would that be mute? ;-)
Not having a primary is not going to go over well
Was SC one of the states that recently changed their date?
So this thread is much ado about nothing?
"Somewhere, hidden from all of us, are panicked Establishment Republicans."
Right on the money. This has their finger prints all over it. If they can get enough of the Thurston Howell/Karl Rove votes before the southern primaries, they and the complicit media can declare Mittens the winner before it begins.
I never thought I would see the day when the party I've been loyal to, held my nose and voted for, would stoop to the level of Democrats. Not to mention the all out assault they have waged on FR the last couple of weeks.
Aside from abortion, taxes, and immigration have been the driving positions we wanted from a candidate, and the only candidate even addressing these issues in this election is being attacked, not by others with better ideas, but by people arguing that we shouldn't do anything about them. For me that certainly exposes their agenda.
It's no wonder we got McLame last time.
I have a serious question. I was going to write a vanity post about it, but I figured I'd get flamed because I'm sure it's been brought up before, but here goes:
If the Republican establishment sabotages us bad enough, and the Democrats wreak enough havoc on our primary process to give us Mitens against the popular will of the Conservative voters, can the delegates walk into the convention and change the presumed nominee. Isn't it the delegates vote that counts in the end?
It would be great fun watching liberal heads explode right there on live TV.
Somehow, these counties didn't mind when they were paying for the Hillary-Obama primary in 2008 . . . .
I agree. The parties should each hold and fund their own primary with their own members only.
oh what the hell...we don't need primaries, those things are only good for liberal states!? Stupid idiots!

SC ping
"... can the delegates walk into the convention and change the presumed nominee..."
Rush has talked about that in the past. While that can happen in theory, in his opinion it will never happen in reality.
"The Supreme Court has not decided to hear the case". Hey Friend, you need to read this three times like I needed too. The Court has not decided, to or not to, hear the case. This was written to fool the reader, or just a piss pour AP writer. ;0)
Ah, gotcha. Thanks.
Here's your answer. The GOP fix for Romney is in. Terrified of Cain's numbers. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2012/president/sc/south_carolina_republican_presidential_primary-1590.html
I smell a well-coiffed, plastic-smiled rat.
"has not decided to" versus "has decided not to"
Who's behind it? Rats or Rinos?
AND at the time of their choosing. Reddest States first, no crossovers.
"The Supreme Court has not decided to hear the case. Hey Friend, you need to read this three times like I needed too. The Court has not decided, to or not to, hear the case. This was written to fool the reader, or just a piss pour AP writer. ;0)"
+1, I also had to read it three times. But came to the same final conclusion. Could have been fixed with 4 words: "yet," "whether," "or" and "not."
"The Supreme Court has not [yet] decided [whether or not] to hear the case."
Occupy the Hamptons!
The next step in the Romney GOP Establishent attempt to railroad his nomination would be to move New Hampshire's primary into December so they could get a Romney win as momentum going into Iowa on January 3rd and Nevada (where Romney stands a chance with Mormon support) on January 14th.
Hopefully they could extinguish oppposition before Florida hits on January 31st.
South Carolina on January 21st could complicate matters.
When one gets into the guts of delegate selection for the GOP convention, over 500 delegates are party officials or elected officals like Senators and such. They are locked into unelected slots from their respective states.
Heck, 90 percent of them must be Romney supporters so he starts the whole process with a big jump.
The GOP (Republican National Committee) has decreed that early contests are proportional in delegate allocation and is allowing later contests in places like Connecticut and New York (RINOland) to be winner take all.
I don't have a link handy, but search "Green Papers" and you will find a site that details the process in each party for primaries, cacucuses and delegate selection etc.
Watch this. They are right.
Somebody trying to make news.
Does the governor of South Carolina have line item veto authority? If she doesn't then this AP writer is a real airhead.
This smells of Willard.
I agree with the others, Cain is leading big time there and the GOP is trying to stop it to get their man Romney in ...
I believe they do. However, the Governor's executive authority in SC is otherwise extremely weak. SC is a state where the General Assembly holds all the power and they will fight tooth and nail at any executive-branch attempt to limit or deny it. A heavily-Republican General Assembly voting to override Haley's veto and sticking taxpayers with the primary bill is typical.
Willard does not want to lose this primary to Cain. That is what is going on here. No one else has a motive.
BUT...But...but...I thought Cain is just a stalking horse for Mitt?
You wouldn't even necessarily need the "or" or "not". Generally when using the term "whether" the "or not" is implied and redundant. You also don't necessarily need the word "yet" as it is entirely possible the case may never reach SCOTUS. I think if you just put it as "The Supreme Court has not decided [whether] to hear the case" would be sufficiently clear. But I also don't see anything wrong with how it is written... maybe it's because I've read many court opinions in my time but that statement seems pretty clear to me that the Court just has not heard the case yet...
That sentence may just have been poor wording on the author's part. It has a much different meaning than "The Supreme Court has decided not to hear the case."
Great answer/response. I felt the same way after wading through this BS:
"Whos behind it? Rats or Rinos?"
' Both. There's no difference.'
I love Rush. I'm a 2 year at a time member of 24/7, and subscriber to the Letter. With all due respect to Rush, and with the very existence of our country in the balance, if Mittens gets the nomination, and it appears to be because of establishment, and Democrat tampering, then the delegates should walk into that convention and tell the National GOP to go pound sand.
After 2008, we should have fixed the whole open primary issue by now, but it's clear now why they didn't.
State primaries for both parties should be held on the same day, and they should be closed to anyone not registered to the party. That way if Dems want to interfere with our primary they have to sacrifice voting in theirs. And vice versa. Again all due respect to Rush, but I was never very comfortable with the "Operation Chaos" thing, and I know he was poking back at Dems who had already been doing it to us, but I always thought it was a case of too much "stooping to their level".
I would have to agree with the counties. If the sole purpose of the election is to pick the GOP presidential candidate and not to choose all candidates for all state and federal offices, then I would be opposed to using tax dollars to fund the election.
Unless the primary covers all potential candidates for the 2012 congressional, legislative, and senatorial races, then South Carolina has no business using tax dollars to finance this primary.
This is such a great reminder!

There is no such thing as a "2 party system" in the US Constitution.
