George W. Bush thinks the world is safer today than it was when 9/11 happened.
In an interview with Parade magazine, the former president also said that he doesn't believe the Republican Party is doomed forever:
George W. Bush thinks the world is safer today than it was when 9/11 happened.
In an interview with Parade magazine, the former president also said that he doesn't believe the Republican Party is doomed forever:
NewsBusters predicted early Friday that Sarah Palin-hating media members were going to love Oprah Winfrey's attack on the former Alaska governor in the upcoming issue of Parade magazine.
Living down to expectations, MSNBC's Chris Matthews almost got a thrill up his leg reporting the news (video follows with transcript and commentary):
Oprah Winfrey thinks America is going to fall in love with Sarah Palin - as a reality TV star that is.
In a Parade magazine interview scheduled for publication this Sunday, the daytime talk star also said she's not afraid of Palin running for president because she believes in 'the intelligence of the American public":
Near the end of Monday's CBS Early Show, co-host Erica Hill touted a new Parade magazine survey on volunteerism in America: "it indicates America is in the midst of what some are calling a compassion boom." Moments later, the magazine's contributing editor, Emily Listfield, argued: "There's something we call the 'Obama Effect.' People are responding to the President's call to service."
Interestingly, the Parade article made no mention of an "Obama Effect" in explaining why people are volunteering more. Apparently Listfield only felt the need to make that observation when appearing on CBS.
Hill set up Listfield's explanation by noting: "91% in the survey said community service, their community service involvement has gone up over the past 18 months." Hill then asked: "Why are you seeing that increase, and where are you seeing it the most?" A headline on screen read: "Compassion Counts; America's New Volunteering Boom."
World News anchor Diane Sawyer touted her objectivity in an interview for the February 28 Parade magazine. The ABC journalist seriously asserted, "I think no one knows my politics." Continuing to hype her journalistic integrity, she proclaimed, "I hope first of all that everyone knows that the facts are what I care about." (H/T to the MRC's Seton Motley.)
Sawyer also had nice things to say about far-left MSNBC host Rachel Maddow. She enthused, "And I think Rachel Maddow on MSNBC is great television. I love the expression of personality that cable invites." She did throw some praise to the Fox News channel: "I think Roger Ailes, who runs Fox News, is smart as a whip."
Pop singer Elton John is blaming Parade magazine for his remark in Sunday's edition that Jesus Christ was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man.
"Parade magazine did a kind of a sneaky thing and put it on their website that I said this," John told Chicago's WGN-TV.
According to John, he made the comment "as part of the conversation during the interview," but he apparently didn't think this was going to be included in the article.
"I don't really want to cause a controversy, and I didn't know it was going to be a sidebar to an article that was a great article, and I think Parade have been a bit sneaky about that" (video embedded below the fold with partial transcript, h/t HotAirPundit):

When you claim that a grassroots group isn't a grassroots group -- beware of actual grassroots activists.

That's the lesson reporter Sharon Male of Parade Magazine learned when she attacked Patients United Now, the health care project of the free-market Americans for Prosperity Foundation, in the July 12 magazine. Under the headline "Are Grassroots Activists for Real?" she claimed that some "so-called grassroots campaigns" "are actually sophisticated marketing campaigns financed by businesses and special interest groups." Male cited the leftist Public Citizen's accusations of "astroturf" campaigns led by "ultra-wealthy individuals who have little in common with regular Americans," and the reporter bemoaned the fact that "grassroots movements are unregulated."

AFP Foundation let its members know Parade was questioning their existence, and they responded by overwhelming Male and her editor with nearly 5,000 e-mails.

Inflation in Zimbabwe is so bad that in January the government released a $50 billion note — enough to buy two loaves of bread. The unemployment rate has risen to more than 85%. In 2008, Mugabe agreed to hold an election, but it became clear that he would accept the result only if he won. His supporters launched attacks on the opposition, killing 163 and torturing or beating 5000. He ultimately signed a power-sharing agreement with opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai, but since then Mugabe has broken its terms and installed his own people at the head of every ministry. Meanwhile, health conditions have reached crisis levels. More than 3800 Zimbabweans have died from cholera since August.There's actually much more of a U.S. link than that. Unmentioned is the role played by former president Jimmy Carter and other liberals. The Boston Globe reported in December, 1979 that "Carter Administration officials feel they have scored a major foreign policy success in Rhodesia." (Zimbabwe was formerly known as Rhodesia). The purported success was a settlement that set the stage for Mugabe's rise to power. This was months after the Washington Post described him as a "scholarly, avowed Marxist."
U.S. link: Although U.S. leaders have called for Mugabe's resignation, imports from Zimbabwe (primarily nickel and ferrochromium, both used in stainless steel) rose in 2008.
Q Can you give us an update on Elian Gonzalez, the boy rescued off the coast of Florida in 1999, then returned to Cuba over the protests of his U.S. relatives?--Mark Larsen, Calhoun, Ga.
A Elian, 15, has been well taken care of by Fidel Castro. His dad was rewarded with a seat in Cuba's national assembly, and the family was given a spacious home. Says Ann Louise Bardach, whose Without Fidel will be published next spring: "Fidel has been known to forget the birthdays of his own children, but never Elian's."
Heartwarming, isn't it? That Fidel is such a sweetheart. So massive is his affection for the young man that he, with the complicity of the U.S. government, forced the terrified boy back to Cuba. Just yesterday, the Associated Press reported that Cubans:
are preoccupied with staying afloat in a sclerotic economy where basics like toilet paper often disappear from store shelves and most people eat meat only a few times each month.
Just in time for Tax Day, the April 13 issue of Parade magazine gave readers left-wing talking points on corporate taxation dressed up as objective reporting.
Contributor Gary Weiss cited two left-wing interest groups and liberal Democratic congressman Richard Neal (D-Mass.) in "Are You Paying For Corporate Fat Cats?" By the end of the article, readers are all but left to seethe an angry "yes!" to that question.
Yet at no point were any economists consulted to point out that corporate tax levies are always ultimately paid by the consumer, who bears the final cost of goods and services produced by the taxed corporations. Taxes are yet one more input cost into final goods and services. So simply put, corporations don't pay taxes, individuals do.
Weiss failed to tackle the political slant of the groups he consulted, which were merely tagged as nonprofits. A quick Google search of the groups makes clear the liberal slant of the organizations.
Chicago Tribune Public Editor Timothy J. McNulty addressed reader discontent over his paper's decision to include in its January 6 paper that week's syndicated Parade magazine insert featuring an outdated cover story and interview with the late Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto. The story was written and the magazine published days before Bhutto's murder. McNulty shared some reader e-mails as well as feedback from Tribune editors, making a point to emphasize that the Trib has no control over Parade's editing nor publication schedule and that the Trib did include an editor's note in the paper about the outdated nature of the Parade insert. But while McNulty did a good job dealing with this particular controversy, he failed to look at a larger issue that the Parade incident fleshes out: the logistical and editorial weaknesses of traditional print media in a 24/7 news cycle, and how that could push more news consumers away from print and towards online media.Forget the label "old media," the Parade distribution model in this case seems jurassic, woefully outdated given the nature of the modern news cycle, and particularly so if the Sunday magazine wishes to report on anything of global political import rather than say Hollywood fluff.Because the Trib's handling of the matter seems ham-handed, it also calls into question the relevance and reliability of newspaper print editions in an unforgiving, 24/7 media universe that's becoming more and more dominated by Internet-based media.SEE ALSO related NewsBusters post: "Ouch: Parade Sunday Insert Touts Bhutto Interview -- As If She Lived"

BNSF Railway is offering a reward for information in connection to the suspected tampering of railroad tracks that delayed nine trains in Southwest Washington on Monday.
The railroad is offering an up to $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of person or persons responsible for tampering with tracks between Vancouver and Chehalis on Monday, spokesman Gus Melonas said.
Anyone with information should call the crime tip hotline at 1-800-832-5452, he said.
Informants aren't required to give their name to get the reward.
Officials discovered the tampering just before 11 a.m. Monday near the Longview junction, Melonas said. BNSF personnel later found tampering at several spots on the tracks between Felida and Chehalis prompting the organization to shut down traffic for a few hours.
"Heightened inspections through the corridor continued through the night and into the day," Melonas said. "Hundreds of local BNSF employees are on the lookout for any suspicious activity."
Operations in the 60-mile corridor returned to normal on Tuesday, Melonas said.

Needlessly cryptic, this drama plays like a pretentious, stereotypically Teutonic version of "Knocked Up" crossed with "Rosemary's Baby," minus the former's humor and the latter's supernatural suspense.
A situation that has recently been played for romantic comedy — a one-night stand's fertile results force two virtual strangers to build a life together — gets very different treatment in director/co-writer Isabelle Stever's "Blessed Events." Needlessly cryptic, this drama plays like a pretentious, stereotypically Teutonic version of "Knocked Up" crossed with "Rosemary's Baby," minus the former's humor and the latter's supernatural suspense. Teasing narrative elements go undeveloped, character backstories are verboten, psychological insight is near-nil, and at the end of a vaguely ominous road there's no payoff whatsoever. That ambiguity might intrigue a few fest programmers, but commercial prospects are minimal.Simone (Annika Kuhl), whose name we don't learn until the film is nearly over, is introduced as a thirtysomething woman who seems neurotically unhappy in her own skin and in the company of other people. Nonetheless, she bicycles to a discotheque, gets drunk alone, awkwardly dances with a stranger, Hannes (Stefan Rudolf), then winds up having sex with him in his car. Waking the next morning, she slinks away. But chance brings her into contact again with Hannes at a local clinic; he works as a hospice nurse for the elderly, and she's just found out she's with child. He's delighted to see her again, even more so to hear her news of this unplanned parentage. They fall into coupledom and buy a fixer-upper house in the country, which she spends her days refurbishing. But Stever and co-scenarist Anke Stelling keep suggesting Simone has serious psychological issues even as they refrain from explaining or exploring them. She reacts with irrational jealous anger toward her partner's idle chatting-up of a happily married neighbor (Maria Simon), and later exhibits more seriously self-destructive behavior. Yet Simon's frequent hostility and evident self-loathing are never probed, robbing Kuhl's grimly contained performance of any glimmer of viewer understanding. Nor does the likable Rudolf fare better as Hannes: He's a virtual blank of nice-guy acceptance, sans will or complexity, most notably demonstrated when an apparent old flame (or something) of Simone's (played by Arno Frisch) repeatedly shows up, once discomfitingly at their house. Wouldn't a loving spouse, or even a merely suspicious one, at least ask, "So … who is that guy?" All this might make some sense if told from a viewpoint of extreme postpartum depression. But if anything, "Blessed Events" seems to be about prepartem depression, or some other foggy malady Simone has always been subject to, but which Stever deems it vulgar to do more than hint at. The film's stylistic and narrative minimalism end up looking like pretentious mannerism, with no disclosure of what lay behind so much unsettled mood and discordant behavior at the shrug-inducing close. Perfs are fine within their frustrating scripted limits, tech/design package very polished. Bernhard Keller's widescreen cinematography lends an expansive air to what turns out to be an exasperatingly small, underdeveloped story, played out as if it required all the gravity in the world.
Blessed Events
A Moneypenny production in association with ZDF, Arte and CinePostproduktion. (International sales: Media Luna New Films, Cologne, Germa.) Produced by Sigrid Hoerner, Anne Leppin. Directed by Isabelle Stever. Screenplay, Anke Stelling, Stever, based on the short story by Stelling.

Li & Fung Touts Whalen Buy, Home Goods Success Despite Weak First Half
Tuesday August 13th, 2013 - 9:40AM

According to the company's interim report for fiscal 2013's first half released today, Li & Fung Ltd. acquired Whalen Furniture Manufacturing to broaden its product offering and complement the existing furniture business within its trading network, one that also includes True Seating. The effort to enhance the home goods business comes at a time when the category is a bright spot in the operation.
Li & Fung posted a net profit for the period of $96 million, as compared to $114 million in the year-prior first half, well below a Thomson Reuters analst average estimate of $150 million. Sales, or turnover in Hong Kong financial parlance, came in flat at $9.13 billion compared with the period the year before.
The Hardgoods piece of Li & Fung's distribution network was a highlight of the financial report, driven by home furnishings and housewares. Hardgoods sales gained 7% in the year's first half. Li & Fung noted that Hardgoods and home products in particular carried strong momentum into the second half of the fiscal year.

The 2TB monster features a large 64 MB cache, which is the largest seen on a regular HDD. However, several SSDs already use 128MB caches, and at least one controller design in the works is capable of accessing up to 256MB of cache. It is these large and fast caches that are driving SATA standards forward.
The latest version of Seagate's SeaTools software allows for short-stroking, in which data is stored only on the outer tracks of the drive, allowing greater access speed at a reduction in capacity. The company claims that a short-stroked Barracuda XT using 1TB of storage will be able to compete with a 10k RPM Velociraptor drive from competitor Western Digital.
The company is targeting high performance and gaming PCs, low cost servers for SMBs, and external storage applications using eSATA for the new drive. Seagate expects almost 20% of all HDDs sold in 2010 will have a capacity of 1TB or greater.
The new drive (model ST32000641AS) comes with a 5-year warranty at a MSRP of $299. It should be available at retail by the end of this week.
Despite all the enthusiasm from Seagate, it will be SSDs that see the greatest performance jump with the move to the next generation for the SATA interface. Several SSDs are already hitting the limits of SATA II when reading from their cache.
Adoption of the new SATA standard is currently slow, as the ASUS P7P55D is the only motherboard that is natively capable of support 6Gbps. Older motherboards are capable of such speeds only through the use of a PCIe adapter card.
The problem is that motherboard manufacturers are waiting for a new I/O Controller Hub (ICH) from Intel. Commonly known as a southbridge, the new ICH is expected to support new technologies such as SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gbps. AMD is also working on a new southbridge to support these technologies.
quote: Someone with good spelling and grammatical accuracy can be just as factually accurate or inaccurate as someone with bad spelling and grammatical accuracy.
quote: The latest version of Seagate's SeaTools software allows for short-stroking,
quote: Seagate claims that a sustained transfer rate will be 140MBps (similar to velociraptor speed).What's the point than of using 6 Gpbs channel?
quote: As I understand it, short stroking a drive makes the outer 1/3 of the disk available, leaving the remainder of the disk inaccessible. In some areas, this is actually desired. Especially since computer performance can bottle necked on a slow performing hard drive. That means these drives would have about 680 Gigs of high performance disk area if they're short stroked. Not bad at all.
quote: I'll believe that any mechanical SATA disk can keep up with a velociraptor when I see it, not before!
quote: Actually 140MB/s is 1.4Gb/s in SATA terms because 1byte packet is 10bits in SATA transmission due to error correcting bits.
quote: That's why they aren't viable. Most users can't even tell what performs better than the other. If it mattered, Raptor/Velociraptors would be sitting in every single desktop.
quote: I don't honestly see the point in making faster and faster standard hard drivers. SSD's are here, they are viable, and they are already cheap enough.
quote: Standard hard drives will, however, be viable for servers for a long time. However any serious server will be running SCSI anyway, so these drives don't apply.
quote: Viable? $300 for this 2 TB drive or $6000 for four 512 GB SuperTalent SSDs. Yep, sounds viable and cheap enough.
quote: The 2TB monster features a large 64 MB cache, which is the largest seen on a regular HDD.

Generous people gathered in Portland this weekend to help some Girl Scout troops recover from a costly prank.
The scouts were fooled by an order of 6,000 boxes that turned out to be fraudulent. But they didn't find out until after the cookies were ordered.
On Saturday, they sold 3,000 boxes and learned some tough business lessons and some good things about the kindness of their community.
The fraudulent order had been placed via email, from an address belonging to an acquaintance of a troop leader. The emailer turned out to be a girl who used her mother's email address to pull the prank.
Portland Girl Scouts will try to sell the remaining 3,000 or so boxes of cookies Saturday, March 23, at the Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington council headquarters, 9620 S.W. Barbur Blvd., in Portland. They're also selling by email at email@example.com.

But there is a chance I may m/c before then and I don't know what to expect?
I had a m/c in 2003, but at the time I didn't know it was a m/c until about 2 weeks later. One thing I do remember is that AF arrived and about 2 days later I was at work and heard a 'pop' and then had a heavy flow - but of course I didn't know I had been pg. I don't know how far along I was. I was on a break from TTC as I had only lost my mother about 5 months before so I wasn't paying attention to my cycle.
With the Chemical Pg I had in Oct/Nov (Fresh Transfer from IVF) I never got AF, my levels went back to 0 and we went straight into a FET (Frozen Embryo Transfer) which is this one. I was on progesterone support for about 7 weeks, but they stopped on Thursday!
The hospital where I am having the surgery have given me a speciman jar incase I m/c (which made me feel a bit sick), but I'm worried about leaving the house and the m/c happening away from home.
Will it start off a small bleed or will it start off as a heavy bleed?
How much cramping will there be? Will it be worse than AF Cramps?
*Warning this bit may distress some people*
and my worst fear, will I see anything or will it be like clots?
ATM I am getting cramps, but I've been getting them all the way through, but I've been having a 'pinching' feeling which comes and goes. Also last weekend I had, what i can only describe as, my uterus being filled with air and then releasing - that didn't go on for very long and hasn't happened since.
Thank you

The HQ Montana 8 clean design was chosen to reduce tolerances in production to a minimum. The result – an aerodynamic masterpiece. HQ Montana 8, performance requires precision in design. The 8th generation Montana is a totally new kite. Two years of intensive work from our R&D team has resulted in a completely changed shape. A lower AR and C-Kite like shape give added stability to the kite without compromising the performance and light wind ability of the older Montanas.
This becomes noticeable in the direct handling and ease of use. The HQ Montana 8 combines a great freestyle and freeride ability. The increased efficiency of the power per square meter is particularly noticeable in the lower wind range. Once in the air, the kite gives feedback and provides power. A redesigned bar and the new magnetic quick release system complete the whole package.

Flysurfer Peak2
The Flysurfer Kiteboarding R&D team always tries to give kitesports more variety. It was through allowing ourselves the room and opportunity to achieve truly innovative products that we created the first Single-Skin kite. For years, Reinhart Paelinck worked to achieve his dream to build the world's most versatile kite. Flysurfer had high expectations to improve this unique product even more – and we knew it could be achieved through the combined expert knowledge of our Paragliding and Foil-kite development team. Now, with the PEAK2, Reinhart and Flysurfer have made the next leap forward. The PEAK2 has unmatched low-end, enhanced stability and even more performance – but it still comes in a lighter and smaller package! We're proud that we were able to further improve this innovative Single-Skin kite product.
The PEAK2 is your personal lift to the summit of mountains. No pre-inflation or pumping is needed, so it's always ready to go for a session. Its unmatched low-end power will guide you to new locations, even in the slightest breeze, and thanks to its effective depower, you'll be safe and in control, even in stronger winds. The PEAK2 will soon become your go-to kite, the kite you want to use every day, so you won't miss out on that great session, even as a beginner. Because of its small packing size, and its touring bag/harness, you can literally take the PEAK2 anywhere you want. This combination will make it your ultimate toy either on snow, sand, grass or asphalt. It's your passport to pure freedom.
When it comes to safety, we do not compromise. The PEAK2 now has incredible stability in light breezes or gusty strong winds, so you always remain in charge, no matter what happens. After activating the Infinity 2.0 quick release on the Infinity Light control bar, the front-line safety (FLS) makes the PEAK2 flag-out downwind with no remaining pull. Whether you need to reverse launch, backstall landings, or simply drop the kite at the edge of the wind window for a short break, the PEAK2 does it all, giving you optimum control in every situation.
Choose your favourite size from the new PEAK2 line-up – 12.0m, 9.0m, 6.0m or 4.0m. Whichever you opt for, your PEAK2 will be delivered ready-to-fly and complete with your Infinity Light control bar and flying lines. It's ideally suited for backcountry touring, free-ride snowkiting, kite landboarding or buggying – even unhooked freestyle tricks are possible. When it comes to improving your skills, the PEAK2 also stands out from the crowd, making it the perfect choice for kite schools. And thanks to the easy controllability, it allows for pure fun in your kiting sessions, even for children. Once equipped with our kite and touring bag/harness, all you need to do is hook in the Infinity quick release on your Infinity Light control bar and prepare for launch. Whether you're on land or snow, only the sky is the limit with the new PEAK2 from Flysurfer!
Flysurfer Peak2 Features
Compared to its ram-air double-skin cousins in our line-up, the PEAK2 has no bottom sail, resulting in a huge reduction in weight and more performance per square metre. And thanks to the efficiency of the PEAK2's depower system, the power is controllable. When it comes to low-end and wind range, the PEAK2 definitely sets new standards.
Fun in 3-4 knots? The PEAK2 makes it possible! Even in extreme light winds, the kite provides incredible stability, usability and perfect control.
The super-small pack size of only 52x14x14cm (HxLxW) for the 6.0m ready-to-fly PEAK2 means it fits easily in any travel bag, saving you money on additional sports equipment charges. The minimalistic weight of the 6.0m r.t.f (1.94kg) is a huge advantage in comparison to common closed-cell, open-cell or LEI snow kites – which you'll definitely appreciate while hiking up mountains!
The new lightweight bar for the PEAK2 is robust with a more comfortable grip, a new adjuster (clamcleat) and the proven 2.0 quick-release system with easy untwisting function, so you can enjoy even better comfort while reaching the top of the world.
A proven front-line safety (FLS), the 2.0 quick-release and Infinity Light control bar gives you maximum security about your safety. If activated, the Infinity 2.0 quick release can be reassembled within seconds, so your PEAK2 is ready to fly again.
With the PEAK2 we remain true to the Flysurfer philosophy to make our products durable. As an additional service we also offer the Flysurfer 12-month free repair warranty.
No pre-filling or pumping is necessary, simply unpack the PEAK2 and you're ready to go in the blink of an eye. It really is the most user-friendly kite in kitesports history!
This optional extra is a light trekking backpack with an integrated harness in which you can put conventional hydration packs. The straps on the touring bag attach around your waist and thighs, while the chicken loop attaches via special metal loops. This saves the need to bring a standard bulky and heavy harness along. But this bag is not a harness replacement – it's designed for maximum weight savings for expeditions and freeriding.
Whether it's on land or snow, with a kite landboard or a buggy, skis or snowboards, for free-ride or teaching purposes, adults or children, beginners or advanced, for urban street kiting or as a travelling companion, the PEAK2 is your ultimate toy for a daily session.

Man pleads guilty to multiple feloniesApril 25,2013Man admits to felonies
BENNINGTON A local man pleaded guilty to six felony charges and three misdemeanors Tuesday, the day a trial in the case was scheduled to start.
Michael A. Spangenberg II, 23, of Bennington pleaded guilty in Bennington criminal court to two felony charges of second-degree aggravated domestic assault, four felony counts of violation of an abuse prevention order, one misdemeanor charge of simple assault by mutual affray and two misdemeanor charges of unlawful mischief.
The state dismissed two felony counts of burglary of an occupied home.
There was no agreement in the case regarding sentencing. Based on the charges to which he pleaded guilty, Spangenberg could be sentenced to more than 20 years in prison.
Spangenberg was arrested in August after police said he assaulted a woman and a man on Aug. 26 in Bennington, forcing the man to fight him off with a knife.
When police were first called, they believed Spangenberg was the victim. But the woman, with whom Spangenberg once had a relationship, told police he had assaulted her the day before and returned on Aug. 26 to attack her and the man.
The man stabbed Spangenberg in self-defense in the waist, causing superficial injuries, police said.
Deputy States Attorney Jennifer Barrett said the state had added charges after reviewing phone records from the Rutland jail and finding that Spangenberg had called the woman more than 100 times.
Christopher Montgomery, who represented Spangenberg, declined to comment after the hearing.
Spangenberg had previous convictions from 2010 for simple assault and violating abuse prevention orders.
Judge Cortland Corsones ordered the Vermont Department of Corrections to conduct a pre-sentence investigation of Spangenberg. A sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 25.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON For the first time, all the choral students of the Southwest Vermont Supervisory...

So Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., is concerned about the growing "mobs" across the country with their demonstrations. He knows the real reasons why they are demonstrating, but he's not going to tell us that.
These "mobs" are people who have been laid off, or had their pay cut. They have lost some or all of their benefits, had their jobs shipped out of the country, they are running out of unemployment or have lost it completely and are without health care. At the same time, some or most corporations are handing out bonus checks.
Cantor has a nice regular paycheck. He has all the benefits that can be imagined, along with a nice comfortable health care plan for him and his family, and he will enjoy a handsome pension. To me, it's kind of comical in a way and hypocritical because these are all the things Cantor is against for the poor, the middle class and the elderly.
I will support all those "mobs" across this great country of ours and some day Cantor just might know what those "mobs" mean to all of us, but I doubt it.

How ironic that Paulla Solar is about to receive a merit award from the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference, honoring her character, win total (more than 300) and two state titles.
And yet Solar has accomplished something far more meritorious: She's lasted 13 seasons coaching high school basketball in the Republic of Stonington, where seldom is heard an encouraging word.
Solar, surely, has dealt with her share of loonies over the years. To this day, she's not allowed to employ male practice players because some softies from a few years ago protested. But her girls' program is Saturday in the park compared to the freak show of the other gender, now in search of what will be its sixth coach in the last 10 years.
That's right. The sixth coach in 10 years, now that Chad Barclay has been dismissed after his first season.
I'm not here to defend Barclay.
Nor to lay his dismissal at any one party, whether the administration, parents or players.
Rather, this is an appeal to the few, the proud who are brave enough to respond to the inquiry about becoming the new coach.
Don't do it.
At least without a licensed clinical social worker on speed dial.
Because you can't win there.
The program is venomous, poisonous, delirious. And in desperate need of a despot. That's right. If you take this job, you must request the fall of democracy. This is your show. There is no peanut gallery. There are rules blacker than 2 a.m. and whiter than the Republican Party. As former Yankee (and Norwich Navigators) manager Stump Merrill likes to say: "This is going to be a monologue, not a dialogue."
Forget John Wooden's line about the bench being a coach's greatest ally. In this case, it's the door. As in: You don't like it? Leave. There is no crying to mommy, daddy or the principal. The administration must understand that if you hire a new coach, you trust him (or her) to do the job. Six coaches in 10 years suggests there is a leadership issue that must be addressed.
The big picture is awash in uncoachable kids, unbearable parents and an unenlightened administration that has allowed this program to become a punchline. This is not about blame assessment. Because they all bear the responsibility.
It's straight from one of my favorite lines, written by Stephen Vincent Benet: "All of these you are, and each is partly you; and none of them is false, and none is wholly true."
Or as Rich Conover, who provided counsel to Barclay this season, said, "If a school is about to have its sixth coach in 10 years, the problem isn't with the coaches."
Conover has been coaching basketball at various levels for more than 50 years. Another of his observations: "Leading people takes time. It is a skill. It took me time. It takes every coach time. Giving someone one year makes no sense."
Again: There is no point in anybody taking this job without clearer ground rules. And an administration that will enforce them. It's not like this never happens at Stonington. Girls' soccer coach Dave Walsh met with his share of parental sniveling early last season. The snivelers got a clear message that their act would no longer be tolerated.
I'm just not sure why Chris Gallerani, Mike Reyes or Barclay never got the same support.
There is nothing in the Constitution decrying it an inalienable right that Stonington High School offers boys' basketball. And if things don't change, they would be better off suspending the program, rather than subjecting the next poor sap to such pervasive dysfunction.
You have met the enemy, Stonington.
Look in the mirror.

A man wanted for robbing a Greenville bank is in jail Tuesday morning. Matthew Ginn, 24, was arrested Monday night and charged with common law robbery.
Police obtained a warrant for Ginn last week following a robbery Thursday morning at the First South Bank on Greenville Boulevard. Police say the robber implied he had a weapon but didn't show it.
Ginn's girlfriend, Marion Blount, 24, was also arrested and charged with possession of Heroin and one count of Accessory to Felony after the Fact.
Detectives executed a search warrant of a hotel room at Motel 6 and a search warrant at 1918 White Hollow Drive and recovered evidence of drugs, a small amount of cash, and the clothing items that were worn by Ginn at the time he committed the robbery, according to a press release.
Ginn is being held on a $50,000 secured bond. Blount's bond was $35,000 secured.
A warrant is out for a suspect in Thursday's bank robbery in Greenville.
Police have obtained the warrant for 24-year-old Matthew Ginn of Greenville. The warrant is for common law robbery.
Police also released a photo of the suspect.
Police ask anyone with information related to this case is asked to contact the Greenville Police Department at (252)329-EYES (3937) or Pitt/Greenville Crimestoppers at (252)758-7777 or by texting "PITTGV" and their information to 274637.
There is a 24-year-old Matthew Ginn listed on the North Carolina Department of Corrections site with convictions in Pitt County for DWI, burglary and drugs.
The First South Bank on Greenville Boulevard was robbed just after 11:30 a.m. on Thursday.
Police say the man implied he had a weapon but didn't show it, demanded money from the teller and took off with an undisclosed amount of money.
Police say he was wearing a cream Fedora and a black pea coat with a scarf. They say the robber was white, about 5'8" to 5'9" tall.
No one was hurt.

You get the impression that Canal+ may not be getting too many more interviews with Jose Mourinho in the near future.
The Portuguese didn't go full Man-of-War in his Istanbul press conference today but he was a man evidently hurt by the publication of comments he believed that he had made in private , comments that will have necessitated some pretty awkward backtracking and apologies over the last 24 hours or so.
The rights and wrongs will have been debated in the offices of the French television channel at length, conversations we weren't and will likely never be privy to, but rather than claim that Canal+ should be "embarrassed", the Chelsea manager may be better served looking closer to home.
After all, who really should be the most humiliated here?
Jose's suggestion that the entire media should be abashed at the conduct of one of their colleagues (colleague used in a very broad, international sense here) is surely no different to suggesting that another manager, perhaps Laurent Blanc is sufficiently removed and irrelevant, should be embarrassed by Mourinho's witterings about "little horses" and pantomime antics.
Furthermore, savaging key first-team players at a corporate sponsors event - whether off-camera or not - is a needless and incomprehensible risk to take at a time when Chelsea are battling in the tightest title race in years and chasing an outside chance of Champions League glory.
The biggest upshot of this storm-in-a-teacup whistlestop-saga is that Jose is upset. And despite his somewhat loose tongue you can feel some sympathy with a man who believed he was speaking in private while the man at the other end of the microphone had somewhat different ideas.
But while the fear is that we will see this this "embarrassment" sending Mourinho inside his shell, the reality is that such an eventuality is unlikely.
The master of distraction is used to deflecting the focus away from his players and onto himself. He may well have an ethical point if he feels that he has been wronged by devious journalists at the French channel but this afternoon's attack once more serves as a distraction, this time from his own failings .
Even as a joke, suggesting you have no strike force is hardly a comment to be making when your forwards are at the lowest of ebbs with regards to confidence.
And he knows that what he told Canal was needless and stupid.
Far be it from anyone to question Jose's own track record, but we all do things we regret.
This is the man who poked Tito Vilanova in the eye before referring to him as 'Penis' in the subsequent press conference.
The same man who nearly faced legal action for calling Arsene Wenger a 'voyeur'.
The man who was also labelled an "enemy of football" by UEFA referees chief Volker Roth for his role in Anders Frisk's retirement.
See through the masquerade and it's obvious that while deep down he'll be ruing his decision to so bullishly criticise his low-on-confidence forwards, as far as distraction is concerned for Jose, the only way is ethics.

Jodhpur, Oct 27 (IANS) Rock star Mick Jagger, visiting Rajasthan for the second time this year, has been feasting himself on some folk music here this week.
'Sir Mick flew in with his companion on Oct 25 and is staying as a guest of Jodhpur Maharaja Gaj Singh,' a source close to the erstwhile royal family told IANS here Saturday.
Jagger has been attending some of the performances at the Rajasthan International Folk Festival (RIFF), the five-day extravaganza that started Thursday.
'He has been mixing with the revellers at performances of the 'Living Masters' series, in which young musicians perform along with their musical gurus all throughout the stunning Mehrangarh Fort,' the source added.
He seems to be enjoying the festival, the source said.
Jagger, 64, best known as the lead singer of Rolling Stones, is apparently smitten by the charms of Rajasthan - he visited Udaipur, another major tourist attraction in the state, in January this year.
He was so impressed by the scenic beauty of the city of lakes that he had expressed interest in buying a piece of land there.
The RIFF here is playing host to a variety of singers, dancers, instrumentalists, storytellers and artisans from Rajasthan, Britain, eastern Europe and central Asia, who are mesmerising the visitors with their creative performances.
Interactive educational events, staged performances and late-night jam sessions are brining audiences face to face with the artists in a setting of unmatched beauty of the Mehrangarh Fort.

While the news of Shristi Arya's Kehta Hai Dil... Jee Le Zara going off air came as a shock to the audience since the mature love story had garnered enough popularity, it seems it was a well thought of strategy by the channel - Sony TV.
According to a reliable source along with Jee Le Zara, one more show will be given the axe to make way for a non-fiction show. While the news was making rounds for long now it has been confirmed that Rashmi Sharma Telefilms, Desh Ki Beti Nandini too will go off air informs our source, "Both Jee Le Zara and Nandini will be going off air at the same time to make way for a one hour slot for the non-fiction talent hunt show Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega to be hosted by Anu Malik. The auditions for the show which is in it's fifth season are over and it should go on air in mid-June post the IPL season."
"While Desh Ki Beti Nandini never picked up on the popularity meters, Jee Le Zara was doing quite well for itself. Jee Le Zara which was launched in mid-August last year had a one year contract according to which it had to air just four episodes in a week but then after it started it was made into a five day a week show so as it is has completed its one year as per the time duration."
When we enquired with both the producers, Shristi Arya confirmed that her show was going off air, and producer Rashmi Sharma maintained, "I have no official information on the show going off air as yet, so I really cannot comment."
Sony TV also has another show Encounter based on real encounter incidents. "That show will most probably be for the weekend slot," concludes our source. As of now there is no news of the two big ticket shows that are most awaited on Sony which star the Bollywood couple - Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan. Both the stars who will be seen for the first time on Indian Television in two separate fiction shows which were announced last year have been on hold for quite some time now.
Well, it seems lots of new and interesting stuff coming our way soon!

Times-Bulletin, The (Newspaper) - June 30, 1973, Van Wert, Ohio School Meets State Requirements In All But Three Categories OHIO CITY Ohio City-Liberty Elementary School received qualified compliance ratings in six areas of the inspection conducted during the 1972-73 year by the Ohio Department of Education and has been found deficient in three other areas. A report sent by the state depart- ment to the school and to the county board of education indicated weaknesses in the areas of organization and administration, staff personnel and evaluation and research. In the organization and ad- ministration category, the state report noted that "Funds are not budgeted and expended to ensure equally ad- vantageous educational opportunities to all grade levels in the local district in terms of classroom space and class size." It was also stated that in con- sideration of the lengthy tran- sportation time, the six-hour day is excessive for kindergarten pupils. Excessive study hall periods for grades seven and eight were noted, pointing out the need for related, directed study. The report in this area also stated "it is regrettable that the students in grades seven and eight do not have an opportunity for instruction in home economics and industrial arts." The organization and administration report also covered the areas of school philosophy and noted needs for revisions in the handbook of policies. The report cited the "well- maintained noting that it demonstrated efficient custodial service. IN THE AREA OF staff personnel it was noted that class enrollment ranges from 18 to 44 pupils and attention was called to excessive class size in the third, fourth and sixth grades. Special concerns recommended for attention at staff meetings were cited and included: individualizing in- struction, effective planning, development of a balanced in- structional program, use of multi-level reaming materials, creative writing, correlated visual art. pupil research and science experimentation. The state report also stated that "Since the principal of the elementary school is also principal of the high school and superintendent of the local district, it is recommended that a trained elementary assistant be provided in the area of supervision and instruction. curriculum and evaluation. Assistance of this nature is particularly needed for classroom visits directed toward cooperative appraisal of the teaching-learning situation. It is recommended that a format and procedure for this vital function of appraisal, be provided and used." The report praised the library operation at the school and com- mended personnel for the inservice meetings held on the county level. THE FINAL AREA in which the state found Ohio City-Liberty Elementary School deficient was in evaluation and research. The report stated that "It is timely that the in- service study theme for this year has been identified as that of in- dividualization. It is hoped that this will be explored in terms of in- structional prodecures along with deliberation regarding human relations and discipline. "In keeping with the textbook adoption study for mathematics, the major aspect for annual evaluation is the appraisal of the mathematics achievement of pupils." Attention was directed to specified pages of the Minimum Standards for Ohio Elementary Schools, and pointed them out as a helpful resource in carrying out this required study. "It is recommended that planning, procedures, records, and a time frame be established to actively implement these two the report con- cluded. THIS SCHOOL COMPLIED with standards in the other six areas covered in the extensive state in- spection, although suggestions were also included in these areas in the report. In the area of curriculum and in- struction a need was cited for a con- certed effort towards further organizing and differentiating learning activities and materials to meet the variety of represented learning abilities. The report commended the school for the pupil-teacher relationship which was evidenced, noting its ef- fectiveness in developing courteous, responsive, self-directed pupil behavior. They also noted that each classroom contained printed materials corresponding to the grade level, but pointed out that there is a definite need for more multi-level print materials. They also noted a need for greater staff use of test results in terms of diagnosing, prescribing and in- dividualizing instruction. The school also met compliance in the areas of instructional materials and equipment, but the state examiners cited need for science equipment and materials, sets of supplementary readers, updated dictionaries and additional varied art materials. S2.000 has been designated for the purchase of library books for the elementary school along with Title II funds. This is the same amount as is appropriated to the high school. The budget for audiovisual media is for the current year, an increase of SlOp. Various other needs were cited in cataloguing, developing classroom environments, etc. The report commended the school for its elementary library collection housed within the facility, along with library books supplied to each of the learning areas. The library is open for children's use during the afternoon sessions, and is also open during the summer. It was noted that the local public library makes a major con- tribution of book titles annually to both the center and the classrooms.

But the 25 girls from Ohio did not mean this to be a disparaging gesture toward the Soviet Union.

The girls, all from the Columbus area, are members of the Seal of Ohio Girl Scout Council, and spent 2'2 weeks in the Soviet Union visiting such cities as Leningrad. Kiev and Moscow. The trip cost S745 for each girl, and most of them earned the money themselves. Some received financial help from their churches and various Girl Scout troops in Ohio. The girls earned another merit badge Friday when they took up a collection for an old Russian woman whose money was confiscated by Soviet authorities at the Moscow Airport. The woman.

Kennedy Airport THE TIMES-BULLETIN Vol. 35 Saturday, June 30, 1973 Van Wert, Ohio, Zip Code 45891 10 Pages 10 Cents Congress Accepts Nixon Compromise Aug. 15 War Deadline Set WASHINGTON (AP) Congress and President Nixon have reached a compromise agreement to halt all military action in Indochina by Aug. 15. Opponents of bombing in Indochina agreed to the Aug. 15 fund cutoff after assurances the President would sign it. The compromise was incorporated in a billion supplemental appropriation bill sent to the White House Friday night. The bill substitutes for a similar measure vetoed Wednesday by the President because it would have terminated spending immediately for bombing in Cambodia or Laos. The House fell 35 votes short of the two- thirds needed to override the veto. The Senate, by a 63-26 vote, also inserted the Aug. 15 war fund cutoff in a resolution to continue funding all government departments, programs and payrolls beyond the end of the fiscal year at midnight tonight. The continuing resolution was sent to a House-Senate conference, with final action expected today. President Nixon relayed to Republican congressional leaders Friday his w illingness to accept the Aug 15 deadline. The House then dropped its demand for an immediate halt in the bombing of Cambodia and substituting the Aug. 15 cutoff in the supplemental money bill. The vote on final passage was 278- 124. The Senate concurred by a 72-14 vote, clearing the bill for the President's desk. But Senate sentiment on the com- promise already had been tested in a spirited debate on the continuing resolution, adopted 73-16 after the Aug. Gilligan Signs Billion Record Budget COLUMBUS. Ohio (AP) Ohio's record S9.9 billion two-year budget was signed into law Friday by Gov. John Gilligan with the comment it dem- onstrated what can be done "when reasonable men work together." "By and large, this is a good Gilligan said as he signed the spending measure during a brief ceremony attended mostly by aides and newsmen. Gilligan noted it was the first budget since 1967 to be adopted by the July 1 fiscal deadline and "the first since 1965 to contain no new or increased taxes. "The tax relief in it is very sub- stantial." he said. The budget contains S400 million in tax relief, including almost S350 million in the property tax rollback. Gilligan again expressed dis- appointment over cuts the legislature made in the fields of mental health, corrections, the Youth Commission and the environment, but said, "we're not going to quibble about it, we'll-just have to go on with less." The governor noted the budget provides: increase of S230 million in state subsidies for local school districts, bringing to 50 per cent the amount elementary and secondary' school sub- sidies have increased since 1971. increase of S109 million for higher education. totaling S64 million in the areas of mental health and mental retardation, and a boost of S11.5 million for juvenile correction. Color Photos On Licenses Set COLUMBUS. Ohio (AP) The state has rewritten its specifications for the contract to provide driver's licenses with color photos and will seek ven- dors" bids soon. Fred Vierow, deputy Director of the Department of Finance, said issuance of the new licenses should begin Jan. i. Under the new specifications. Vierow said, instant over-the-counter sales of renewed licenses will be provided. This will eliminate previous plans for a central file of the photos for law enforcement purposes. Vierow said a survey of other states indicated less than i per cent of the photos in such files were used annually by police agencies. Objections had been raised to the plan on the grounds it would be an infringement on the privacy of citizens.

We're trying to wrap up individual solicitation within a week to 10 days." Welker explained. He said each one of the workers will have approximately three more calls to make.

PC May Cease Operation PHILADELPHIA (AP) The Penn Central Railroad plans to cease operations in October if federal aid for the financially troubled line is not approved by Congress. Trustees for the carrier told a U.S. District Court judge overseeing reorganization of the railroad under federal bankruptcy laws that hundreds of millions of dollars would be required to keep the line running. The Penn Central operates on 20.000 miles of track in 16 states and two Canadian provinces. The trustees told Judge John P. Fullam on Friday that they prefer a plan where the federal government would aid Penn Central and other Northeastern carriers. If quick aid cannot be obtained the trustees said, the court should give them hasty approval to dismantle the railroad. A hearing on the plan begins in Fullam's court Monday. The Senate Commerce Committee has announced that action on legislation to aid railroads could come either in the summer or earlv fall. 15 deadline had been accepted 63-26. The compromise was presented to the Senate by Chairman J.W. Fulbright, D-Ark., with the 15-2 backing of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Fulbright said the President had accepted a series of committee in- terpretations of the language: acceptance of the Aug. 15 cutoff should not be interpreted as a recognition of the President's authority to engage U.S. forces in hostilies before Aug. 15. involvement by U.S. forces in Indochina after Aug. 15 would require approval of both houses of Congress would not be used as the basis for escalation of U.S. bombing in Cambodia, or for its resumption anywhere else in Indochina "unless provoked." efforts should be made to minimize casualties and property damage. Some anti-war senators held out to the end. Senate Majority Leader Mike Mansfield, D-Mont., called the com- promise "a capitulation and ab- dication of the constitutional powers of the Senate." Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., said the compromise gives the President "amnesty for the slaughter of the past and license for slaughter in the future." He said it "will go down in infamy in American history." Sen. Vance Hartke, D-Ind., called it "a compromise with death." Sen. Frank Church, D-Idaho, defended the compromise in an emotional speech as the only way to end "this abominable war." Lima State Procedural Changes Set LIMA.

Highs in the 80s. Lows in the upper 50s and 60s. WASHINGTON (AP) Former White House aide John D. Ehrlichman says he has evidence to "trip up" the sworn testimony of John Dean III. Ehrlichman said he believes Dean is trying to implicate President Nixon to save himself from criminal prosecution. "The only person who would have been in a position to keep abreast of an investigation and to have taken steps to protect the three or four people, in- cluding himself, who were involved in the inception of this thing, was Dean." Ehrlichman said. The former presidential counsel "was uniquely at the pivot point of the cover-up." said Ehrlichman in the strongest counterattack to dale against Dean. Ehrlichman's statements carne Friday as Dean concluded five days of exhaustive testimony and stood firm on his charge that President Nixon knew the outlines of the coverup as early as last Sept. 15. Dean said Ehrlichman and former White House chief of staff H.R. Haldeman shared that knowledge with the President. Ehrlichman said in a CBS television interview he first became aware a cover-up was in progress last March after he had begun an investigation at the request of the President. "Dean will be tripped up by the logs I kept of all meetings." the Christian Science Monitor quoted Ehrlichman as saying. in the television interview Ehrlich- man acknowledged he had respon- sibility for the White House team in- vestigating leaks of national security information. But he claimed he had no advance knowledge that the team planned the 1971 burglary of the office of the psychiatrist of Pentagon papers figure Daniel Ellsberg. Ehrlichman appeared on CBS program "60 Minutes" and was in- terviewed by correspondent Mike Wallace in a session taped Thursday. Dean admitted to Senate questioners that he was heavily involved in the coverup. But he said he was acting on the orders of Haldeman and Ehrlich- man. In his testimonv Dean also disclosed that the White House maintained a list of the President's political enemies and thai pressure was put on him to come up with a plan to harass them through tax audits. investigations and other steps. Dean said Ehrlichman knew of the enemies list. Ehrlichman said. "That's something that was developed totally outside of my sight and hearing Senate testimony established that FBI logs of wiretaps on government employes and newsmen ended up in Ehrlichman's While House safe but he said he never authorized or ordered the wiretapping of newsmen's telephones Today's Editorial The Times-Bulletin comments today on: The Cost For Auto Upkeep Please turn to Page 4 Dean testified repeatedly that he had never been told to investigate the possible involvement of White House aides in the Watergate break-in and had never done so Ehrlichman said in 1he Christian Science Monitor interview that Dean told Nixon.

I chose to work at PwC because I was impressed by the firm's focus on its people and the awards PwC has won in this space. Also, PwC has a strong coaching culture and opportunity for development, which are important for me and my career goals.
The thing I enjoy most about working here is the people. Everyone is engaged in their work and there is a very supportive team environment.
Since starting at PwC in January 2014, I have had a number of unique opportunities in my role. One of the most notable was attending our annual national conference, PwC's Talent Academy, where I met students and staff from across the country, and got to hold the Hamelin brothers Olympic medals!
I enjoy dancing, biking, golfing, yoga and healthy eating. I also really enjoy travelling. I've been to 25 countries!
My personal brand involves being highly organized and a strong communicator. These are the key skills that help me succeed in my role as a campus recruiter.

If you're in MA and you cycle, may want to know another cyclist has been killed, but a driver making an illegal right turn. In MA, it is illegal for vehicles to make a right turn in front a cyclists who is moving in the same direction. I crashed into a taxi a few weeks ago while in a bike lane, had a green light the taxi made a right turn in front of me. I suspect this occurs every day.
You may also be interested that this has happened twice before in the last few years in MA, each time an illegal right turn. In each occurance, the drivers weren't charged. The police in MA through their actions are telling drivers in MA they can kill cyclists without consequences. No jail time, not even fines. They won't even revoke the drivers' license.
Since reading news of this death I've read a few blogs about road safety. My favorite suggestion has been getting more drivers on the road cycling. The best way to improve safety may be to have cyclists experience what it's like when a driver cuts you off with an illegal right turn or passes you within 3 ft. If I could legislate, I would make it a requirement to get a drivers license. Would make it a law that all drivers would have had to taken bicycle safety course that involves riding on the road for a certain amount of time.
