Two fast starts, one impressive finish and an 11-game winning streak were among the highlights supplied by Johnson County programs during the 2012-13 boys basketball season.
Unfortunately, the county failed to net a single sectional title for the first time since 2009.
The season featured a pair of first-year head coaches, Franklin's Jerry Bomholt and Whiteland's Matt Wadsworth. Standing alone at the opposite end of the tenure spectrum would be Greenwood's Bruce Hensley in his 24th season leading his alma mater.
Among the more startling story lines came out of the county's southern regions.
Edinburgh, which was supposed to be in rebuilding mode after graduating every one of its starters from last season's 23-3 Class A semistate qualifier, apparently never received the memo.
Using players who for the most part were second-teamers a year ago, the Lancers jumped out to a 10-2 record to shock everyone with perhaps the exception of their coach.
"A lot of people kind of wrote us off," third-year Edinburgh coach Drew Glentzer said. "We had role players back from the Final Four team who wanted to prove themselves, and I think they did that. They showed up for every game except one (a 76-60 home loss to eventual sectional champion Baptist Academy on Jan. 26), so I guess that's what I was proudest of.
"They competed."
Led by guard Caleb Giles, the Lancers for a second consecutive year started five seniors. Glentzer hints this streak is about to come to an end, however, as next season's sophomore group could take up as much as four-fifths of Edinburgh's starting lineup.
Glentzer also called these Lancers the smartest team he's coached. Four of his players carry a grade-point average of 4.0 or above.
Bomholt's Grizzly Cubs opened the season with losses to Center Grove and Decatur Central before rattling off 11 consecutive wins. The ninth proved particularly sweet, with Franklin avenging the earlier loss to the Trojans in the title contest of the Johnson County Tournament.
Franklin will graduate three seniors, including point guard Keenan Wood. Don't shed any tears. Starting forwards Tyler Thomas and Nick King will be back along with a host of other talented underclassmen, who will attempt to improve on a won-loss record (15-7) that was a marked improvement over last season's 8-14.
Indian Creek's 5-0 start eventually mushroomed into an 8-2 record. The Braves struggled closing out games the latter half of the season, finishing 10-11 after eight of their final nine losses came by eight points or less. Senior-to-be point guard Brett DeHart returns for what will be his third season in the starting lineup.
Center Grove, with a 10-13 record, recorded the Trojans' first losing season since the 2008-09 team finished 8-13. The program's difficult Metropolitan Interscholastic Conference schedule prepared it well for the postseason, coach Cliff Hawkins' group making it to the final of the Center Grove Sectional before losing a 48-47 heartbreaker to Franklin Central.
The Trojans in the form of three starters return plenty of firepower for 2013-14 — swingman Tyler Bryant, forward Michael Benkert and point guard Ryan Pendygraft.
Whiteland finished 8-14. It is the 10th losing season in 11 years for the Warriors, who behind senior center Dejan Davis managed some exciting moments for their fans. Six-four forward John Hubler will be the lone starter returning for a program graduating seven seniors.
Greenwood Christian Academy lost seven of its first eight games but rebounded nicely to finish 10-11. The Cougars played regional-bound Baptist Academy three times, winning the first by eight points and dropping the final two by a combined seven points.
As for Hensley's Woodmen, they started the season as poorly as a team could by going 0-9 with an average deficit of 22.2 points. But after defeating Indian Creek 66-53 in the county tourney, a confidence was installed that made Greenwood a completely different outfit down the stretch.
Winning seven of their final 11 games enabled the Woodmen to produce a 7-14 record. All but two of Greenwood's players — seniors LaRon Patterson and Raddell Waddy — return next season, including top scorer Jaren Hornbeak.
"More than anything it was their attitude. It was like the light came on. I think they got tired of losing," Hensley said, attempting to pinpoint the origins of his team's 180-degree turnaround. "I would say this team from where we started from probably progressed more than any group I've ever had. I'm certainly excited about next year and hoping we can build on what we did this season."

I am looking to improve my photography skills by means of online courses. So far have looked briefly at the NY Institute of Photography and betterphoto.com. Does anyone out there know about their reputations, have any experience with them, or would recommend other alternatives?

Re: online photography courses?
posted at 1/7/2010 10:19 AM ESTNY Institute offers an entire photography course from begining to end and upon successful completion, you earn a Professional Photographer Certificate. The course is developed in a way to educate both the begining student and the serious amateaur.
Betterphoto.com is an excellent place to learn as well and I like their method of online training...a little more personable, more interactive and your instructors are readily available. But, their courses are more like seminars where you choose the emphasis on a particular area of photography. You are not granted any certificate for completion.
Both are good and reputable, and education is always valuable. NYIP's courses require a little more effort on your part to stay focused, whereas betterphoto.com will hold your hand to ensure you succeed.
One further note, NYIP's courses have been recently streamlined and geared towards today's technology, so don't let some one tell you that their information is outdated. Moreover, they have been around longer than anyone else, so they must be doing something right. Betterphoto.com, however, is a great example of where today's education is heading and their format of learning is the template of tomorrows educators.
Do you learn well on your own? NYIP
Are you an internet socialite? Betterphoto.com
Do you want the whole gambit for one price? NYIP
Are you looking to improve in just a few areas? Betterphoto.com
Are you looking to have a library of pamphlets, CD's and such? NYIP
Do you require that your instructor be immediately available? Betterphoto.com responds faster than NYIP.
Hope this helps a little.

Re: online photography courses?
posted at 1/28/2010 1:57 PM ESTHi! Karen from BetterPhoto here. I love the way you outlined a guide to BP and NYIP Smitty - just thought I'd pop in here to share that we do have a product with certificate of completion. Our ClassTracks are eight months of courses are spread over the period of one year, allowing flexibility for busy schedules. Upon completion of the ClassTracks course, each student receives a Certificate of Mastery. Our course counsellors are available to help you decide which ClassTrack is best for you. http://www.betterphoto.com/photography-class-tracks.aspHope to see you at BetterPhoto!Karen Orr

Kerkorian's suit delayed
Published: Wednesday, December 17, 2003 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 16, 2003 at 11:00 p.m.
WILMINGTON, Del. | Billionaire investor Kirk Kerkorian's lawsuit against DaimlerChrysler was put on hold Tuesday after his lawyers claimed the company suddenly gave them 61 pages of handwritten documents that could bolster their case.
Judge Joseph Farnan Jr. recessed the trial while a special master for the court holds a hearing to determine "how we got in this mess." It's unclear how long that will take.

This formula is the ultimate illuminator for creating a sensuous, sheer, luminous glow.
A must have beauty product. Best of all, the Living Luminizer enhances the skin's natural youthfulness
without being sticky, greasy or glittery.
I have shopped this item for a long time and finally decided to take the plunge and try it. This product is wonderful. It delivers a nice glowing affect without being sparkly or glittery. (That looks good on younger skin but not so much on mature skin) So, I like it for that reason as well as it has a coconut oil base and looks so hydrating and glowing on the skin! Don't hesitate to try it. It is well worth the $. A little goes a long way.
I was skeptical but curious and I do love this stuff. Adds a nice subtle glow without sparkle. Works on "aging" skin. A bit pricey but a little bit goes a long way.
I love this product! I apply on the top part of my cheekbones, my eyelids, lips, pretty much anywhere you want a subtle sheer glow. It is not shiny or tacky, applies smoothly and like all RMS products it is natural and not full of chemicals and other junk. It's not very noticeable when you put it on but people have commented that my skin looks glowing . I really like it, it's a multitasker and easy to use with my fingers.
Apply sparingly with fingers over the cheekbones, down the bridge of the nose, along the inner corners of eyes, and on the cupid's bow above lips for a natural glow. Add life to eyes by subtly applying onto the center of eyelids, just above the lashes.
For a more precise application to those sensual places on the face, apply the living luminizer with the rms beauty brightening brush. The small tapered brush is perfect for highlighting the inner eye corners (near the tear duct), down the bridge of the nose and bow of the lips. A hint of the luminizer can be added along shoulders, shoulder blades and collar bones for a sexy evening look. Combine with the lip2cheek for a more sensual, shimmery mouth. or mix sparingly with 'un'cover-up for a radiant sheen.
This product cannot be shipped to the following countries: Australia, China, Japan
There are no DOT restrictions on the delivery of this item – you may elect to have this item sent through any of our delivery methods.

Earlier today as we prepared the newest episode of our Ride The Pine video show – Cramps Are Hilarious – we grabbed the advertising image above that was on display on the Dallas Cowboys Pro Shop. We actually went back a few hours later to try and purchase some as a giveaway for our readers but the image was removed and the product is no where to be found. What's up with that?
Well, the crack staff at Ride The Pine put a call into the Cowboys organization and found out that the Jerry Wipes and Cowboy Wipes are currently sold out. Don't panic, the representative informed me that they are expecting more on Monday. The wipes had just went on sale Wednesday, which means they sold out in 24 hours.
You have to give credit to owner Jerry Jones who took the infamous eye glass cleaning moment from the opening night of the 2012 season and turned it into something that can raise money for charity.
Be on the lookout for our Jerry Wipes giveaway…

Senior libero Libby Fontanilla made a career-high 29 digs, part of 82 on the night for the 49ers.
Nov. 2, 2012
Stockton, Calif. - Senior Janisa Johnson had another great match at Pacific, leading a huge defensive effort for the 49ers with 22 digs and 19 kills for the 49ers in a 20-25, 25-20, 25-16, 29-27 victory in Stockton. Senior libero Libby Fontanilla set a career high with 29 digs while adding three aces, and setter Tara Roenicke guided the 49ers in a tremendous effort.
On a hobbled ankle, Roenicke was masterful on Thursday, making 44 assists, six kills, and seven digs while to help lead the 49ers in a back-and-forth match. The 49ers made 82 digs total in support of the offense, and out-blocked the Tigers ten to four on the night.
The match opened with the Tigers scoring the first four points, but an ace by Libby Fontanilla capped a small comeback for the 49ers as Long Beach State tied the score at 5-5. The Tigers held onto the lead, at that point, and opened up another four-point lead. Long Bach State cut into the Tigers edge, eventually taking their only lead at 14-13 after three straight kills by Johnson. Tied 20-20, a Gabby Cowden ace put the Tigers up by two at 22-20, and Pacific won the remaining points for a 25-20 first set win.
The 49ers took a 2-1 lead when Chisom Okpala put away an early overpass, and while the Tigers took the lead twice early, after an 8-8 tie, the 49ers moved in front for good. Taking a 10-8 lead on a kill from Alex Reid, Long Beach State moved out by three on a Johnson kill after a rolling dig from Chelsea Cabrajac. Fontanilla's second ace followed by a block from Tiara Wallace and Bre Mackie made the score 17-12, and while the Tigers briefly cut the lead to two, another Reid kill stopped the run and the 49ers took the second set 25-20.
Long Beach State scored the first five points of the third set, but Pacific scored five straight of their own to even up the score. A kill from Reid gave the 49ers a two point lead at 10-8, and two straight kill from Johnson put the 49ers ahead by four at 15-11. Already leading 19-13 after Fontanilla's third ace, Reid put away a kill to give the 49ers their largest lead at 23-15 on the way to a 25-16 third set win.
While the match had been close all night, the roller coaster nature was at its peak in a wild fourth set, with 15 ties and eight lead changes. Tied 22-22 after a Kat Schulz kill, the Tigers had set point at 24-23, but the 49ers picked up a sideout on a clutch kill from Reid, and picked up their first match point on a solo block by Bre Mackie. Pacific scored two straight to again take the lead and force the 49ers to defend set point. A miss by Anne-Sophie Bauer brought the score even once more, and the 49ers grabbed the advantage with another kill by Reid. Back-to-back errors brought a third match point, and finally the 49ers finished the match with a block by Roenicke and Chisom Okpala at 29-27.
Long Beach State continues their current road trip with another match on Saturday, playing UC Davis at 7 p.m.

"Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa - Dancing with the Stars" judges Madhuri Dixit, Remo Dsouza and Karan Johar have stepped into the shoes of veteran actors Amitabh Bachchan , Rishi Kapoor and Vinod Khanna's shoes for a promo of the upcoming season of the dance reality show.
They have danced to a customised version of the title track of 1977 film "Amar Akbar Anthony". The song has been recreated and sung by multi-talented singer Jaaspreet Kohli, who has also lent his voice to the song "Nimma nimma", composed by A.R. Rahman for the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics.
Director Karan Johar is excited about featuring in the new version of the song, which was originally sung by Kishore Kumar, Shailendra Kumar and Mahendra Kapoor. "It's a great feeling to be dancing on a song as popular as this and we literally are doing some 'anhoni' (impossible) things on the show this time! We hope the audiences like our dance as well," he said in a statement.
Choreographer Remo, who has choreographed the twisted version of the song, said: "It's an honour to be choreographing such a legendary song and at the same time performing it. It was a challenge to present it in a different way that appeals to the audience and I hope I've done that."
The new season of "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa" will be aired on Colors.

Targeted nutritional supplements are an essential part of Dr. Perricone's 3-Tier Approach to a healthy body and beautiful skin. This perfectly dosed daily program of nutrients is specifically designed to promote healthy weight loss and weight maintenance. They assist by boosting metabolism and decreasing body fat while increasing energy levels and satisfying the appetite. The supplements are organized for convenience into morning, noon and evening packets.
Each Individual Packet Contains:
I love Perricone's regimen. Following his book and not wanting to buy the expensive supplement. I bought each pill separately which in the end cost me more than the supplement above. Imagine 30 pills 3 times a day. BUT when only taking the supplements listed in his book and NOT altering my diet in any way. I lost 11 lbs in two weeks. My skin was amazing. There are a few key ingredients missing in this supplement package but if you get them all the weight will drop off, your skin will look amazing, and you will have energy like never before.
absolutely one of the best put together body and health management supplement systems. one of the tools which helped me lose 35 lbs and keeping it off three years later. i would never be without my supplements. also lowered my cholesterol 60 points. my docter could not believe the difference in my levels after only 6 weeks.
I didn't get these to necessarily lose weight (though I wouldn't mind losing a couple pounds) but because I've heard that they are great for appetite control, and I have a raving sweet tooth and was basically looking for something to help me keep that under control and not gain weight. I absolutely love them, and even though they are really pricey, I refuse to go without them. I don't always take them three times a day, so that makes them last a little longer, but always before breakfast and usually before dinner, and I've noticed a huge change in my appetite--much less ravenous and more easily satisfied without over indulging. I sometimes take them in the afternoon when I start to get hungry and my energy starts to drag, and it really helps me from binging on cookies and candy. Really love this!
Take one packet three times daily one hour prior to each meal. Since each component of the program works together, take the full contents of each package.

Report: Blake Griffin has back fracture
Last week, Los Angeles Clippers forward Blake Griffin withdrew from Team USA Basketball camp, saying he was doing so to devote his energy to preparing for the 2014-15 season.
ESPN's Ramona Shelburne is reporting that the former OU star also has a small fracture in his back.
From ESPN: "Griffin is expected to make a full recovery from the injury, which sources say was suffered during the playoffs. However, doctors advised him to sit out international competition this summer for precautionary reasons."
With Griffin and Kevin Love both witdrawing from Team USA, the frontcourt depth is thin, particularly at power forward. Atlanta Hawks PF Paul Millsap was added to the roster on Monday.

The Tip Sheet: The Season Springs Toward a CloseChamber Music, Chicago Artists, Classical, Experimental, Orchestral, Vocal Music No Comments »
By Seth Boustead
May is always a busy month for classical music as we wrap up our concert seasons and prepare to adjourn to our summer homes to drink port, abuse the help and shoot defenseless animals.
Sadly though, this year I'll be stuck in the city as my beloved manor burned down last fall during a regrettable flare-gun duel with an impudent young oboist who questioned my knowledge of French Baroque performance practices. Which admittedly I know nothing about, but still, what the hell? At any rate, here are my favorite upcoming classical music events, sans impudence. Read the rest of this entry »

Betty Wesner won APSCUF's Distinguished Service Award — which is given to members who voluntarily contribute their time and skills to the functions of APSCUF at the statewide level — at the organization's legislative assembly in State College last week.
Wesner is retired from Kutztown University, where she was field hockey coach. Click here to read more about her.
For some, this was a final legislative assembly in their current leadership positions. State President Dr. Kenneth M. Mash expressed his appreciation for the service of: Steve Hicks, immediate past state president, of Lock Haven; Helen Bieber, secretary, retiring from Kutztown; Beth MacDaniel, chapter president, retiring from Clarion; Jean Jones, chapter president, retiring from Edinboro; Brendan Finucane, Shippensburg chapter president, who did not run for reelection; Mark Staszkiewicz, chapter president, retiring from Indiana; Keith White of Kutztown, stepping down from his position as coach executive leader; and Paul Quinn, outgoing Kutztown chapter president.
Read APSCUF's positions on Degrees of Value report, per-credit tuition
Delegates at APSCUF's legislative assembly last week in State College approved two position statements, posted now on the APSCUF website.
Degrees of Value report
The first statement, approved unanimously, regarded the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education's Degrees of Value report.
"At this point, the purpose of the Degrees of Value document appears to be an indictment of not only the liberal arts majors but also a signal that proposed changes are on the way," the statement concludes. "The document is a leverage tool. All faculty should familiarize themselves with the report and be prepared to respond."
Read APSCUF's complete response, which includes points for faculty members to make when discussing the report with students, by clicking here.
Per-credit tuition
At budget-appropriations hearings last month, legislators in the House and Senate lauded so-called pilot per-credit tuition programs, already implemented at Millersville University and set to begin at Indiana University in the fall.
Rep. Keith J. Greiner said he was impressed with the preliminary data and sees advantages to Millersville University's program:
Sen. Lloyd Smucker later called it "very innovative":
State System Chancellor Frank T. Brogan said, "We found that it was having either no impact, negative, or positive impact in some of the issues that we reviewed."
APSCUF faculty and coaches, tasked with providing quality, affordable education for their students, disagree. (So does this IUP parent, in this letter to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.)
An overwhelming majority of delegates approved APSCUF's stance on per-credit tuition.
A bit of background: APSCUF delegates last year unanimously approved a resolution calling for a moratorium on per-credit pilots.
For a student taking 15 hours, a per-credit tuition programs increases the scholar's tuition by 25 percent. For 18 hours, tuition goes up 50 percent from the previous flat rate.
"These pilot programs come at a time when the average Pennsylvania student already graduates from the State System with over $30,000 in debt," the 2015 resolution reads. "From a national perspective, Pennsylvania ranks third-highest in student loan debt. Nearly 80 percent of PASSHE students accept some form of financial aid. These tuition increases will place an even greater financial burden on students and their families."
This year's position statement succinctly restates APSCUF's opposition to the programs:
The Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties confirms its opposition to per-credit tuition programs, and we reaffirm that the obligation to adequately fund public higher education rests squarely with the Pennsylvania General Assembly.
In solidarity with Verizon workers

.- In his remarks at the opening Mass of the 92nd Plenary Assembly of the Bishops' Conference of Argentina, Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, president of the body, said unity in the Church is achieved through service.
In his homily, the cardinal said, "a pastor attains and amasses the unity of his people" through service, "seeking the interests of Christ Jesus and not his own." He explained that unity is achieved through sincere love and humility that sees "others as superior," and not through a spirit of discord and vanity.
Likewise, the cardinal recalled that "unity in the Church is a grace" and a "pure gift of the Lord."
Cardinal Bergoglio invited the bishops to follow Mary's example of service. Embracing the attitude of Mary, "the first disciple, will give us the paternal 'tenderness' and the fraternal 'compassion' to exhort our people and to exhort ourselves to make our joy perfect 'by remaining very united'."

John Fauber and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel continue their long-running "Side Effects" series – the longest-running journalism series on health care/medical research conflicts of interest. In the latest story, Fauber reports on a University of Wisconsin pain research group that he says has "cozy personal financial relationships with drug makers," receiving millions, while helping to "liberalize use of opioids."
In the Philadelphia Inquirer, medical reporter Stacey Burling tells the story of "The last month: A husband's final days. " It's about her husband's death from brain cancer.
She concludes:
"Like many of us, I had been lucky enough to have encountered very little death in my life. I knew people whose parents had died, but people don't talk about the nitty-gritty of death, like how it feels to give raspberry-flavored morphine when you know you're choosing between pain control and length of life. I didn't want to hurt Jeff's feelings by reading books on caregiving when he didn't need it; when he did, I didn't have time to read.
I came to wish that I had asked more questions, more insistently, and that the doctors and nurses who worked so hard to keep my husband alive had talked openly – before there was a crisis – about what my role as a caregiver would be like when their work was done."

The Weather Channel is in the midst of a transformation, one that can be traced in part to an idle afternoon Al Roker spent surfing the Web a couple of years ago.
Pleased with the ratings earned by some new series, the network is increasing by 70 percent the amount of original programming it had planned to offer this year, and will debut at least one new show each month for the rest of the year.
Once the home primarily to meteorologists standing in front of maps, the new Weather Channel will be featuring Arctic pilots, iron workers, wind turbine and power line repairers, and Coast Guard rescuers in both icy and tropical climates.
"It's an evolution, not a revolution," said Michael Dingley, the network's senior vice president of content and development, who came to the Weather Channel from HGTV 10 months ago. "You want to respect the core viewers, but let's invite new viewers into the tent."
That's an old motivation for profit-hunting cable networks, who know the key to success is grabbing casual viewers and holding them. The same forces compelled MTV to move away from music videos two decades ago, and has transformed History into more than a place for musty war movies.
The Weather Channel recognized that it needed things to keep people watching for longer than it took for the next local forecast to pop up. Past attempts at programming, series like "Storm Stories," tried this with a focus chiefly on the weather. Now network managers are embracing programs where the weather or other natural forces are just one of many characters.
The old Weather Channel wouldn't have considered "Ice Road Truckers," History's hit series about freight haulers braving treacherous conditions in Canada, for example. Now it clearly would, since earlier this month the network premiered "Ice Pilots," about people who fly in those same conditions.
"Coast Guard Alaska," which details rescues in a forbidding climate, has done so well since its November premiere that the Weather Channel already has ordered a spinoff series involving a U.S. Coast Guard station in Florida.
The Coast Guard series come from Mr. Roker, who while Web surfing one afternoon noticed some rescue videos that the agency had posted on YouTube. He quickly set up a meeting with the Coast Guard to put the series together.
Viewers know Mr. Roker primarily for trading quips and giving forecasts as part of the "Today" show team, but off-screen he operates a thriving production company that supplies material to Spike, HGTV, A&E, the Cooking Channel and now the Weather Channel.
"The previous management didn't really see the big picture," Mr. Roker said. "They didn't think the audience would watch these kinds of shows."
The premiere of "Coast Guard Alaska" increased viewership in its time slot by 35 percent over the previous four weeks' average, Nielsen said. The first "Ice Pilots" increased the audience size by 60 percent.
The Weather Channel feels freer to offer these series partly because up-to-date forecast information is available through TWC online or on mobile devices, Mr. Dingley said. The Weather Channel named a new chief executive in January whose top priority is growing the network's website and mobile applications.
While the new shows have helped ratings, Weather Channel executives must be mindful of a wary fan base that insists upon weather being the top priority. Viewers were sharply critical last spring — and TWC meteorologist Jim Cantore tweeted an apology — when the network did not interrupt a movie to cover a tornado outbreak in Arkansas.
The network has ditched movies, Mr. Dingley said.

I don't think any American family will benefit from having Sarah Palin as vice president. It doesn't sound like she's advocating anything specific and you'd think at this point that she'd have something in mind, but no. I would like for her to come to some less-affluent areas of Massachusetts where the cost of living is much more than in Wasilla and talk to working people who have to take two and three jobs to make ends meet. This is not a family-friendly existence. Interestingly, she spent more time in Wasilla as governor than in Juneau and charged the state for her transportation as well as for her family. Real people don't have that option.

Give me a break, that old BS constructionist saw has been around for years. If you bothered to read further into the document you'll see that among the rights that The Constitution gives to Congress is the power to write laws. It also gives the Executive the power to promulgate regulations to implement those laws. Some of those laws just might involve child care.
Theodore Roosevelt (He's the Republican one) once said: "This country will not be a permanently good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a reasonable good place for all of us to live in." To make it a "reasonable good place", there has to be some accommodation made to those who cannot afford to quit their jobs to have children. Furthermore, if you think that the housing crisis isn't bad enough, if all of those people left their jobs, the economy would completely collapse, because 70% of all families would no longer be able to pay their mortgages. Then it would be a "reasonable good place" for none of us.

posted at 9/10/2008 7:03 PM EDT[Quote]My word! Please, listen. The FEDERAL government is only supposed to be concerned with specific matters. The 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution specifically states: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." Why in the world would we want MORE federal government interference with our daily lives? Government has NEVER solved anyone's problems. The nine [sic] scariest words in the English language are still "I'm from the government, and I'm here to help!" Government is the PROBLEM, not the SOLUTION. And until working families realize and accept this, we will never be able to move forward.[/Quote]
The president sets the tone for the economic agenda for the nation. Basically, the "trickle down" theory of economics--the one in play for the last 8 years--does not trickle down to the average worker. The money stays at the top and the workers, not just entry level, but everyone under executive level, never benefit. This is why the overall economy can be said to be doing well but the people pay more for goods and services while making lower wages and are worse off than several years ago. Therefore, it is up to the federal government to set the stage for businesses to allow real people to benefit from a better overall economy. One example of this is the trend to outsource services to countries like India and Jamaica. (In fact, my own job in airline reservations was outsourced. If I didn't have family in another city, I'd be unemployed or forced to relocate). The idea is to set the tax structure to make it more beneficial for companies to keep jobs in this country. This is only one example. The tax structure is such that some industries are allowed to thrive (petroleum, for example) while others are left to flounder (trucking, airlines) while the consumer is left paying the bill. A Republican tax structure would mean more of the same. A Democratic corporate tax structure would tend to benefit the people and by extension, families. Maybe with a better work environment, people wouldn't be struggling as much.

posted at 9/11/2008 4:37 AM EDTgive me a break! Why is Palin supposed to solve all problems for working mothers, problems that have been problems for decades? Merely b/c she is a woman? These are issues for Congress, not for the executive branch. The problems w/ the economy were not caused by a single administration. They are a culmination of policies from several administrations, including the Clinton administration.
What I loved about the article was that the author was denigrating Palin for working on the one hand, and on the other hand also saying how Palin could not possibly understand the plight of working mothers. The author is talking out of both sides of her mouth. Why shouldn't Palin work? I guess you are darned if you do, darned if you don't. Hmm, that seems to be the same plight that most working mothers and SAHM face.....
Personally, I think both parties did this country a serious disservice by giving the electorate a choice between McCain and Obama. There were better choices out there for both parties, but these were the 2 "winners" that the 2 major parties came up with? Please! Might be time to reorganize those parties, or at least seriously shake up those parties' leadership.

posted at 9/11/2008 5:20 AM EDTYou skeptics are overlooking a crucial benefit to having Palin as the eventual President. When the economy plummets even deeper and unemployment continues to rise, parents won't have jobs to go to so they will be at home with their kids, making parenting MUCH easier with two loving opposite-sex parents in the house to raise their children.

Only working mothers can solve problems for working mothers. The idea that the President or Congress or any other government official can fix YOUR problems is naive and plain wrong.
The government does very little well.
This idea that Obama or McCain will do something to help any of us is absurd. People have the ability to help themselves and manage their own lives far better than the government.
The question we should ask is, which candidate will do more to get the government OUT of our lives??? We are so focused on what is going to be given to us that we forget that we our our own keepers and that the government only makes taking care of ourselves harder to do.
Why don't people understand this???
How will Sarah Palin help my family?
posted at 9/11/2008 6:25 AM EDTI agree with the poster above that it's not the place of the Federal Govt to solve all our problems for us. We've given them far to much leeway as it is and look where it has gotten us. Income assistance is a local issue and should be handled at the state level.
I also agree with the poster that commented about the qualifications of both candidates. In a country of 300 million people, I simply cannot believe that these are best candidates we could come up with. There is something wrong with our electoral process when our presidential candidates so seriously divide this country.
To the poster that said we owe people the ability to quit work and have children I whole heartedly disagree. THe real problem in society is that people refuse to live within their means. Having a child is a choice you make and you need to be responsible for your own choices. If it means renting instead of owning a 2400 sq foot house in the suburbs or taking the bus instead of driving around in a Ford Escalade- so be it. This country owes you the opportunity to improve your lot beyond that you are on your own.

The motto of the Republicans seems to be "Government too small for the boardroom, but just big enough for the bedroom"
Let's see, being an ordinary, law-abiding, non terrorist American, under the current administration:
My email is read by the NSA
My phone may be tapped
Spyware may installed by the FBI on my computer
My Cell phone can be used as a bug by the government
My bank accounts are open to the government
Homeland Security can confiscate my laptop or iPod with no probable cause at a border crossing, or can inspect them remotely anytime
Given all that, I think that Barack Obama will get government off my back far better than John McCain will.

Actually, if she ends up as VP she will also serve as President of the Senate, casting tie-breaking votes on issues. She serves under both the Executive and Legislative branches.
As for the rest, I don't necessarily think she needs to unilaterally solve all of the issues designated as "women's issues". But if VP, she will have the strongest voice for these issues that has ever existed in this nation. Fair or not, she will have a lot on her shoulders and the boys club believe she has a lot to prove.
For the record, I am a white male, in my mid-30s, with an advanced degree, not struggling for money, with no kids and no wife. I'm voting McCain/Palin unless I get wowed by a Libertarian/Independent candidate in the coming weeks. Government is too big as it is, but I would rather vote in a fiscally conservative platform than risk my independent vote assures a win to the current liberal platform where my money will get sucked into sponge programs. I spend an amazing amount of my money on other people's families needs, and that needs to stop.

This is money that goes directly to my children's day care expenses. It is money that only goes to couples who jointly earn less than $200K. It is the money that helps all of society in a small way and to the middle class who have children in a big way. It is the tax policy that McCain wants to make permanent and Obama (and the Dems) want to retract.

Right and he also wants to make permanent the tax break for the highest income taxpayers who will benefit most from his tax plan.
While the Obama, democrats, want the high income taxpayers to pay more taxes while everyone else's would be reduced.

But I agree, individuals who work hard, manage their finances responsibly and help their neighbors will be the ones to survive in these times..
the problem is with our society, is you have too many people relying on government to resolve problems that have nothing to do with the government.
People signed mortgages for homes they knew they could not afford. Vultures sold them just to make a buck. People re-fi'd their homes, took out equity to pay bills or purchase cars, now the home isn't worth what they owe.
This is not the government's problem......but everyone is looking to them to bail them out.
I am a working mother, do I expect anyone to help me? no..especially not the VP, either Palin or Biden...what are they going to for me? Pick up my children after school and take them to dance class for me?
Are they going to take them to the Mall on the weekends? Church on Sunday?
give me a break....
The government - THREE BRANCHES have a job to do...they should do it.

Believe me, they WILL snoop on your playlist. Can you PROVE that you don't have any illegally ripped songs on your iPod, or can you produce a receipt for all of the songs?
Senate Bill S3325 establishes the Cabinet level Department of Copyright Enforcement, and specifically directs the Department of Homeland Security to snoop at your iPod playlist. If the find a SINGLE ripped song, you can go to jail. The bill has an excellent chance of becoming law before the Election.
Hoemeland Security i supposed to be a terrorist fighting organization. What are they doing snooping around my iPod? Why should the government be more interested in my iPod than in what Osama bin Laden is doing right now?

posted at 9/11/2008 11:59 AM EDTI agree whole heartedly that SP can not help me with her current stance, same as how I feel about Mrs Obama--is it suppose to make me feel she is in my shoes because she used to watch sex & the city---big whoop
Here's my normal day--what is Sarah's ?
Get up at 5:30, feed & let the dog out, make lunches, get the kids up, make them breakfast, take a shower, then cart them & a few others to school by 7:30pm --work at 8hour day as the corporate woman, come home make dinner, take the dog for a walk, help kids with homework or study or both, get them in the shower, fold the 19th load of laundry for the week and maybe, just maybe sit down and read the mail then study myself because I am in grad school trying to make more money that I need for gas, groceries & daycare
That is an easy day--trash day, or bill paying or general housework are days I wish I was someone else

Listen to all of you sourgraped, so-called "liberated" young women who have been clamoring for a woman to be placed on either the Presidential or VP ticket for decades. But because she is a lady, and has successfully ran and WON the mayorship and governorship of a city and state, you stab her in the back because she doesn't subscribe to the liberal, radical, anti-traditional family values that you despicable liberals do.
You and I know the only reason you are trashing her is because she doesn't belong to the Obama ticket, the very man who is America's MOST unqualified and inexperienced candidate to EVER run for the presidency of this great nation.
You liberal mental midgets truly have a mental disorder, since you believe that YOUR way is the ONLY way America should be run. You hate those who worship Jesus Christ, you ridicule those of us who have served and are CURRENTLY serving our nation's military so that YOU may mouth off and TRASH your country whilel you vacation in Paris, Milan, Berlin or Caracas. You are worthless trash that has the audacity to call yourselves "patriotic" and "true Americans", yet you insult those of us who serve on the front lines so that you may selfishly prosper financially and go out every weekend and enjoy an expensive dinner with your liberal sissy boyfriend who has probably NEVER served this country, like REAL American do.
You claim you "support" the troops, but I suspect you have never ever EVER sent a single care package overseas for those of us who badly need it, and you demean and insult us for serving in today's time of Global War on Terrorrism.
When you learn to act, think, and become a real American, then you can be considered worth enough to be in a discussion with Real Americans, my liberal trash pig with lipstick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Total outrage! THis Palin chick should be in the kitchen with her cute little apron with bunnies on. Her job............ as I remember my mommies job is to take care of me and daddy. Lets see my mommy was so dedicated to her family she didn't even have a drivers license. Dedicated mommies don't need them.
So Obama's old lady. Is she a good mommy? Of course, she is a liberal and also a woman of today. SO there!

posted at 9/18/2008 6:29 PM EDTJennifer,
THANK YOU! As a mother of five young kids and a full time scientist, I echo your concerns. I am one of the lucky ones. I have a husband who is a great dad, five wonderful kids and both my husband and I have decent jobs. However, we struggle to make ends meet and live paycheck to paycheck. I can't afford to stay home because I have the better benefits and salary but can barely afford the daycare/after-school care either. We also struggle every day to figure out who can pick up the kids in time and get them to soccer practice, pick up milk and diapers, help them with their homework, make dinner, and the list goes on. I don't know how a single parent who makes minimum wage is expected to be able to get ahead if I can't.
Sarah Palin is NOT the voice of your average "working mom". I know far many greater women whose lists of accomplishments could make her blush; whose lists of accomplishments made life better for far many more people and are truly interested in civic duty. As I see it, she is just another ultra conservative, do as I say not as I do, power-hungry, career first and family second, in over her head insult to intelligent working women.
I have truly lost respect for John McCain. Being President or being in any position of power doesn't mean you have to be brilliant but it does mean you have to make good decisions and surround yourself, or at least try to surround yourself, with people brighter than yourself. The best CEOs aren't always the brightest bulbs but they know how to surround themselves with and benefit from brilliant people. I can't forgive McCain for this lapse in judgement. I am terrified that she is actually appealing to voters based on sound bites and falsely padded "experience".

This article and many more beg to ask the question exactly who is minding Sarah Palin's children, espeically her new-born. She brought them out on the stage at the convention. The Republicans are holding her up as a shining example of woman/mother. Her situation is fair game. A 5 month old with down syndrome with no mother around. The first year is when the bonding and emotional development takes root,no.? t's montrous that she's not there for him and I'm not sure why more people aren't asking this question.[/Quote]
Here's a though - how 'bout her HUSBAND??? Gasp, do you mean a "man" cannot care for a special needs child????
How will Sarah Palin help my family?
posted at 9/23/2008 6:02 AM EDTThe issue this article addresses is being severly misconstrued. The issue is not the fact that she is right or wrong in being a working mother. The issue is that she is using that as a selling point for herself.
Well...if she is trying to sell me on the fact that she is a working mom, and knows how difficult it is, she needs to tell me what she is going to do to try and make it easier on us. If she has no intention in doing so, then it isn't a selling point and who gives a damn that she is a mom?
Far as I can see, the only thing she is doing by telling us that she is a working mother of 5, is letting us all know that she is too distracted to hold such an important role in our government. Why on earth do you have a child if you are going to be constantly travelling the world and unavailable to them? What is the point?
It is my belief that you have children to pass on your legacy and enstill your values in them, which I truly believe that working moms can do. But there has to be a line, you have to have a job that accomodates your children to be what every child should be, the most important thing in your life. I do not think being Vice President, or god forbid, should anything ever happen, President of the United states provides those accomodations. If anything these are 2 roles that should be occupied by people that can make that thier first priority. As a mother, I could never make that sacrifice.

RallyPoint is an online forum for the military. Its members are scattered all over America. More than a few it seems are scattered over other parts of the world. I've made friends with a few of them. Some are even contacts. But I had never met one in person before yesterday. I had posted a notice about the 50th Commemoration of the Vietnam War at Fort Irwin, California, and Ken Ellis contacted me to find out if we could go together. We could and did.
We rallied at the Main Place Mall in Santa Ana, California, about midway between our homes. A car club of Shelby Cobras happened to be meeting there and provided a welcome diversion before setting off. Another Vietnam Veteran, John Gleason, a member of my VFW post, met there too and we took off for Fort Irwin about midway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Actually, this Army post, affectionately known as the nation's cul-de-sac, lies 30 miles off Highway 15 in the middle of the desert.
We may well-imagine sound arguments being made for several wars or the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) being worthy of the trophy as the greatest or costliest mistake in modern U.S. History. However, all of these are merely the symptoms of other mistakes, aren't they? Finding the root cause depends upon how far back you're willing to look for it..
Ultimately, it may be argued that We the People are accountable for all of the decisions made by our representatives in government, state and federal. Yes, We pay the price, don't we? We pay the taxes. We shed the blood. But the responsibility for those bad decisions vests in our elected representatives.
How does responsibility differ from accountability? Simple. Those who make the decisions are responsible in that they were elected for that purpose: They are responsible for making decisions or executing them. They may even take the blame for making bad ones. However, they never really pay the price for those decisions. They never actually suffer the consequences of them. More often than not, they are reelected so they can return to their seats of power and continue making bad decisions. Whose fault is that?
That being said, We the People electing poor representation to government is not a very satisfactory answer to the question: What is the greatest or costliest mistake in modern U.S. History? Ultimately, it is too broad. It means that We are both responsible and accountable for all mistakes. To determine which is the greatest or most costly mistake, We must narrow our vision to one specific mistake.
Do you know why service men and women salute anyone wearing the Medal of Honor regardless of rank?
It's true. The highest ranking general will snap to attention and salute the lowest ranking enlisted man wearing a Medal of Honor. Why do you suppose that is? Are they honoring the man, the medal, or the act of valor that it represents?
Hero-worship is as natural as breathing. Most of us join the military fresh from childhood reverence of sports heroes. Thus, we didn't invent the practice but we certainly elevated it. I more so than most. As Chief of Awards and Decorations for the 9th Infantry Division during a portion of my tour of duty in Vietnam, I investigated many acts of valor and sat with senior officers who evaluated my recommendations including four that rose to garner the Medal of Honor.
Everyone who has ever worshiped a hero ultimately has been disappointed because every hero falters. Go ahead. Study the record of history. Even mythology tells the same tale. In retrospect, it seems that the West Point statue of Benedict Arnold's boot, commemorating his contribution to the Continental Army's victory over the British at the Battle of Saratoga before he "turned coat", is the most rational memorial to heroism to be found. [Note: Arnold was wounded in the foot during the Battle of Quebec.]
To be fair, I've never had bad hospital food. I've never even seen it, that is not until I visited the VA Hospital in Long Beach, California.
In the interests of complete disclosure I have eaten plenty of hospital food, but never in a VA hospital. I've eaten it while a patient in civilian hospitals as well as military hospitals. I was stationed for a time at Tripler Army Medical Center in Hawaii where I was a patient for a week with my second bout of malaria. My first hospital stay with malaria was in an Army field hospital in Vietnam where I contracted it, and the food wasn't too bad even there.
I can't speak to the food served at other VA hospitals, but my expectations aren't very high. The food being served at the Long Beach VA Hospital is prepared at the one in West Los Angeles and trucked to Long Beach. The kitchens at the Long Beach VA hospital are closed for lack of sufficient funds in the federal budget. Congress could allocate more or the President could rearrange his priorities, but they have more important matters on their minds.
Is there something you've left undone? Something unsaid? Don't let it become a regret
Short Story
Sometimes I wonder what I've left undone. I've lived a long and adventurous life, one filled with love and hate, success and failure, great joy and great despondency. Still, there seems to be something left undone. I'm still here. Why?
There is one question that hasn't been answered. Why did my wife wait so long for me? She is a beautiful woman. The perfect mate. She was thirty before we met and I have often wondered what was wrong with the men in California? Why did they leave the most desirable fruit unpicked?
She'll probably blush when she reads this. She always does when I tell her. Then it occurred to me that she may have had a premonition, one that discouraged her from encouraging just any man. She was waiting for me. Why?
Like any good storyteller, I used it as grist for my mill.
The better question may be what's right about American crime dramas? Nothing. Seriously. They use stick thin women to play detectives and beat cops who would have a hard time carrying their own weight on a fashion show runway. Whenever I see them kick in a door or rough up a thug, my ability to suspend disbelief cries out in anguish. Also, the Brits seem more enamored with acting ability than with beauty.
And American crime dramas don't have a consistent theme. American producers, directors, and writers should study their British counterparts. The Brits have a theme. They love cops who are broken human beings. The more dysfunctional the better.
Take, for example, River, a recent offering from BBC and available on Netflix. Detective Inspector John River is barking mad. If he were any crazier they'd have to keep him in a straight jacket whenever they removed him from the funny farm to investigate a case.
John sees dead people. He talks to them. They talk back. John responds physically and emotionally to them. Like I said, John River is barking mad. A nutter, as the Brits would say.
Do you fear #Thanksgiving table talk?
Oh dark thiry
Did you ever feel deprived because you family never lived up to a Norman Rockwell image? I did. However, one day a Lutheran pastor assured me that no one else's family did. Did yours?
It's gotten worse with age, especially in this age of political correctness. My children have little tolerance for my traditional views and they certainly don't want their children infected with them. My wife, a very successful mother, is remonstrated if she dares suggest any child rearing advice to the very children she lovingly raised.
Then there are those other relations: Siblings, nieces and nephews. Dinner conversation is a minefield for any so brazen as to broach it with them. That's why I'm going armed (or armored) with a list of 10 No-Fail Dinner Party Conversation Starters provided by that bastion of political correctness, The Huff Post.
I've also read The Democrat's Guide to Talking Politics with Your Republican Uncle to inure myself to the propaganda I can expect in spite of every effort to avoid discussing politics.
Thus I shall endeavor to abide by my wife's most fervent wish to keep peace in the family.
Good luck to all others who find themselves in my position.
Happy Thanksgiving

Is there any question that we're living in The Devil's Pleasure Palace? Political correctness runs amok on American campuses as students demand freedom from offense and free everything else. Sex loses all its pleasure as it becomes easier to obtain. The practice of abortion destroys human life in numbers that would make a Nazi blush. Pseudo-science is used to control behavior. Atheists have gained the legal right to demand tolerance of their belief system only. The purveyors of progressive leftism, like Rousseau, Marx, Brecht, Sartre, and Lillian Hellman, beasts in their private lives who profess to love humanity most but despise people, have come to dominate American philosophical and political thought. So, what else would you call this place other than The Devil's Pleasure Palace?

Are you celebrating or disappointed in the outcome of Hillary's testimony at the #Benghazi Committee?
You may be celebrating if you support Hillary. She appears to many to have won. Won what?
You may be disappointed that she didn't break down in tears and confess. Confess what?
Let's take a deep breath and think.
The hearings before the House Select Committee on Benghazi is not a trial. There is no jury. There won't be a verdict. Think of it more as a pretrial to determine if there is sufficient evidence to proceed with a trial. In the military, we would have likened it to an Article 32 (Uniform Code of Military Justice) Investigation to determine if a crime has been committed and if so who should be charged?
Did you expect Hillary to trip up and blurt out something incriminating? Why would you think that? Hillary is an accomplished liar. She lied to herself about her husband's philandering for many years so that she wouldn't have to confront the ugly truth of her dysfunctional marriage. She lied as she was caught stealing the silverware and chinaware as she and Bill exited the White House. She lied in countless investigations to avoid being fined and punished for her complicity in the White Water and other scandals. Her tangled web of lies surrounding her mishandling of classified documents while Secretary of State is unraveling with every revelation. Did you seriously think she would confess like the culprit in an episode of the old Perry Mason Show?
The time to deliberate over the testimony and hard evidence won't begin until the hearings end. Anyone leaping to conclusions at this point is driven by opinion rather than truth.

Cowboys' Bryant keeps offseason focus on football
IRVING, Texas (AP) — Dez Bryant is having a much different offseason this time, keeping the focus on football.
The third-year Dallas Cowboys receiver is spending more time with the playbook, watching more film and concentrating on his conditioning. Bryant is doing everything he can to earn the confidence of his coaches and quarterback Tony Romo.
With a structured offseason, Bryant is finally getting a chance to take advantage of what he's learned playing two seasons in the NFL.
Bryant is already feeling the difference this offseason with the Cowboys, who wrap up four weeks of organized workouts Thursday with the end of a mandatory three-day veteran minicamp. They report to training camp in California at the end of July.

The Disjunctions of Cultural Discourse
IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER, I tried to show that the disjunction between culture and social structure creates a pervasive set of tensions which the society (as well as the individual) finds difficult to manage. But there remains another, central issue: the coherence of culture itself in modern society, and the question of whether culture, rather than religion, can provide a comprehensive or transcendental set of ultimate meanings, or even satisfactions, in daily life.
The question of the coherence of culture was set forth by Wordsworth , in his "Preface to the Lyrical Ballads" ( 1800), when he deplored "the craving for extraordinary incident" and the thirst for "outrageous stimulation" created by the rapid spread of communication and the quickening pace of life, so that "the works of Shakspeare [sic] and Milton, are driven into neglect by frantic novels, sickly and stupid German Tragedies, and deluges of idle and extravagant stories in verse. . . ." Almost 150 years later, when T. S. Eliot reflected on the problem, he pointed out that culture had come to have different meanings when related to the whole society or to a group or class, and he concluded: "As a society develops towards functional complexity and differentiation, we may expect the emergence of several cultural levels: in short, the culture of the class or group will present itself."1____________________
