A reserve on the 2012 British Olympic team and a two-time British beam champion, she helped her country earn an all-time best fifth-place finish at the 2011 World Championships. At UCLA, she earned first-team All-America honor on the balance beam and helped lead UCLA to a fourth-place national finish. In team competition, Francis hit all 31 of her routines during the year, averaging 9.820 on beam and 9.780 on bars.

Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems brings together primary care providers, teachers, families, and caregivers to develop seamless systems of care for a children in the critical formative years from birth to age 3. Working with health care providers, social services and child care and early childhood education programs, Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems help children grow up healthy and ready to learn by addressing their physical, emotional and social health in a broad-based and coordinated way.
Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems: Building Health Through Integration grants are awarded to States and organizations with significant experience developing and implementing statewide strategies to build systems that improve the health of young children. Grantees partner with other providers and programs to better integrate and improve services for young children. The resulting systems
Scientific research shows that healthy early child development is a foundation for a prosperous and sustainable society. Our brains are built over time, from the bottom up. Early experiences affect the quality of the brain's architecture, by establishing either a sturdy or a fragile foundation for all of the learning, health, and behavior that follow. In the first few years of life, 700 new neural connections are formed every second. After that, the connections are pruned so that the brain works more efficiently (source: Harvard University Center on the Developing Child, InBrief: The Science of Early Childhood Development, 2010).
Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems works to ensure that these critical first few years provide a solid foundation for brain development.
Grantees choose one of three strategies for achieving the goals of the program:
Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting is one of several service strategies within a comprehensive, high-quality early childhood system. ECCS supports and enhances home visiting.

CLEVELAND (October 15, 2009)—The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will unveil a renovated state-of-the-art theatre made possible by the generous support of Gregg and Madelyn Foster. To celebrate the opening of the new theater, the Museum will screen the film U2 3D from Tuesday, October 27 through Saturday, January 2, 2010. For show times please visit http://www.rockhall.com/U23D.
The Foster Theater renovation is an important component of a major initiative to upgrade the Museum and construct and operate the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's Library and Archives. The theater hosts the Museum's educational and public programs serving hundreds of thousands of students and visitors each year. The renovation prepares the Museum for live-streaming content to enhance its award-winning distance learning program. It also gives the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame the capabilities to record artist appearances, oral history programs and other events that take place in the theater. Footage from these programs will be preserved in the Museum's Library and Archives, which will open in downtown Cleveland in 2010.
The upgrades include 3-D viewing capability making it possible for the Rock Hall to screen the film U2 3D , produced by 3ality Digital and distributed worldwide by National Geographic Entertainment. Producers Jon and Peter Shapiro have strong ties to the city of Cleveland.
The first-ever live-action digital 3-D film, U2 3D is a unique cinematic experience that places viewers within the pulsing energy of a stadium concert given by one of the world's most well-known bands. U2 was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005. Combining innovative digital 3-D imagery and multi-channel surround sound with the excitement of a live U2 concert—shot in South America during the final leg of their "Vertigo" tour — it creates an immersive theatrical experience unlike any 3-D or concert film that has come before. Ushering in a new dimension of filmmaking, U2 3D takes viewers on an extraordinary cinematic journey that has been recognized by critics from around the world as one of the best concert films ever made.
The Foster Theater's transformation includes:
"To say we are excited about this great honor for U2 3D would be an understatement," stated David Beal, president of National Geographic Entertainment. "The recognition by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame of this groundbreaking film is reflective of its unique place in cinematic musical history. In keeping with the spirit of National Geographic, U2 3D is adventurous and global in its appeal, making it the perfect film for us to distribute. We are thrilled by the Hall of Fame's recognition and the increased exposure it gives to the film's and the band's message of human rights the world over."
"U2 3D and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame are a perfect match," said Sandy Climan, CEO of 3ality Digital. "Live performance built rock and roll, and the Hall of Fame celebrates that spirit. U2 3D is one of the most perfect embodiments of a live performance ever captured for the cinema, and we're delighted that this amazing immersive experience will open the newly-renovated Foster Theater."
The renovation was designed and overseen by Oscar-winning designer and architect Jeff Cooper. He is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for his contributions to the film industry in the field of acoustic and theatre design. His clients include NBC/Universal Studios, Polygram Records, Warner Brothers Studios, Capitol EMI Records and the New York Institute of Technology, as well as directors Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas and Martin Scorsese. Of the hundreds of theatrical motion pictures mixed in studios designed by Jeff Cooper, 17 have been nominated for Academy Awards in Best Achievement in Sound, and six have won the Oscar in this category, including The English Patient, Apollo 13 and Chicago.
Each year, the Rock Hall's Foster Theater hosts more than 200 Rockin' the Schools classes, the Museum's core kindergarten through 12th grade program, which brings students to the Museum for a lesson focused on how popular music intersects with subjects ranging from science to language arts. In addition, the theater is home to other Rock Hall education programs, including From Songwriters to Soundmen: The People Behind the Hits, Teachers Rock, the Hall of Fame series, the Summer Teacher Institute and Rock and Roll Night School, along with Museum films, conferences and more.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Samantha Buy It! I love this when I have company over they always tell me how much they like it September 17, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Samurai Rabbit One of my favorite purchases ever!!! My mother told me, when I moved into my own apartment that I needed an elephant somewhere for good luck so I went searching all around for one. I saw this little guy and was instantly smitten. Considering how inexpensive it is, this piece is beautifully crafted. Everyone who comes to visit is always attracted to it and they always comment on how beautiful it is and how interesting it is that there is also a smaller elephant carved from the same piece of stone inside the stomach of the bigger one. Overall it is a great shelf piece and I would give this as a present to anyone I really wanted to impress. February 20, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Memisstucker Highly Detailed and Attractive This is a must have for anyone who enjoys a hand crafted item of excellent quality. I am very Impressed with this item, he looks lovely on my shelf next to my other handcarved goodies. Very attractive and a great conversation piece. February 17, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Beauty Lover Absolutely Love It! A small but beautiful addition to any room. So nice that I ordered another one because the item is rarely available in the store. January 28, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lu Rong A wonderful tabletop decoration Elephant is the symbol of peace and elegant in Asia. The green tea colors also give a hint of zen. I still cannot believe this wonderful handcarved decoration costs such a low price! Best product in Worldmarket so far! November 1, 2010
Rated 4 out of 5 by Ava32 Absolutely love it, but beware color This is a beautiful, intricate piece for a great price. I especially love the mini elephant inside of it. However, I was really disappointed to see when my product arrived that it was not the color pictured online. I was expecting to see the subtle green tint as in the photo, but my piece is a darker brown with no hints of green at all. It's fine, I still love it, but the color was a big part of the appeal when I ordered it. I would not hesitate to recommend it regardless. April 14, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Jacki18 Not as pictured I bought this elephant thinking I would get an elephant with the trunk down just like the one on the picture.. A little disappointed here. Would want to exchange it at the store, but they don't carry it as we'll.. Please I want the one with elephant trunk down!!!! :( March 7, 2015

Triple OT Thriller Highlights Invite Day One for No. 8 Women's Water Polo
With 1:46 left in triple overtime, senior Katie Rigler scored the game-winner to edge the eighth-ranked Princeton women's water polo team past No. 13 UC San Diego, 14-13, Saturday to open the Aztec Invitational and extend the Tigers' season-opening win streak to 15.
After playing three extra periods to kick off their California road trip, the Tigers were unable overcome a second half rally by No. 10 San Jose State and suffered their first loss of the year, 10-6.
Princeton's 15 consecutive wins now sits alone as the fourth longest win streak in team history. The Tigers (15-1) will look to get back into the win column Sunday versus Cal Lutheran at 2:45 p.m. ET and host No. 19 San Diego State at 7:45 p.m. ET to wrap up the tournament.
Rigler led the Tigers with seven goals on the day, followed by Jessie Holechek who added five of her own.
Spanning 11 periods between the pipes, sophomore goalie Ashleigh Johnson amassed 28 saves, an assist and a steal in just over 71 minutes of work.
Game One
Like the two previous meetings versus UC San Diego, it was a contentious battle for control. Princeton took the early lead, 5-4, in the first, but the Tritons managed to knot the score six-all entering halftime.
Trailing 11-10 with 2:47 left in regulation, Princeton forced its first overtime period behind its final push and a Holechek goal.
Taylor Dunstan set up the go-ahead goal in the first overtime, drawing a 5-meter penalty and Rigler converted to establish a 12-11 lead. The second extra period saw UCSD retake the lead 13-12 before Princeton's final surge sent the game into sudden death overtime.
In a 6-on-5 opportunity, Princeton took possession and found Rigler on the near side. After a couple pumps of the ball she slammed in the winning goal high on the near side.
She finished with a team-high four goals, while Holechek added a hat trick, and Ashley Hatcher and Diana Murphy netted a pair each. Hatcher also recorded three assists and Holechek had two.
In the longest game of her career, goalie Johnson posted 15 saves, a steal and an assist.
No. 8 Princeton: 5 – 1 – 3 – 2 – 1 – 1 – 1 – 14
No. 13 UC San Diego: 4 – 2 – 3 – 2 – 0 – 2 – 0 – 13
Goals: Murphy 2, Hatcher 2, McBee 1, Rigler 4, Temple 1, Klein 1, Holechek 3
Assists: Hatcher 3, Klein 1, Holechek 2, Johnson 1
Steals: Hatcher 1, McBee 1, Holechek 1, Johnson 1
Saves: Johnson 15
Game Two
Despite taking an early lead, the Tigers were unable to contain San Jose State over the second half and suffered their first loss of the year.
Rigler recorded a hat trick in the first quarter to put Princeton up 3-2, before the Spartans tied it up, 4-4, at the break.
Coming off its 3-2 run in the second quarter, SJSU maintained its momentum and went on to outscore the Tigers 6-2 over the second half.
Rigler recorded her 12th multi-goal effort, behind her team-high three goals. She has now scored three goals or more in six games this year.
Holechek added two goals and Dunstan accounted for all three Tiger assists in the game.
No. 8 Princeton: 3 – 1 – 1 – 1 – 6
No. 10 San Jose State: 2 – 2 – 4 – 2 – 10
Goals: Rigler 3, Temple 1, Holechek 2
Assists: Dunstan 3
Steals: Murphy 1, Rigler 1
Saves: Johnson 13

Kaenon Polarized Takes on Park City Point 2 Point MTB Race
Posted: 08/25/2011 In Category: Outdoor Trade Shows / Events
Industry News Release Written By: Tyler Weaver
Newport Beach, CA August 25, 2011 Kaenon Polarized is an official sponsor of the 2011 Park City Point 2 Point mountain bike race. Additionally, Kaenon Polarized sponsored rider, Alex Grant, the winner of the event the past two years, and fellow team rider Marshall Eames, will compete in the 78-mile event on September 3, that will travel between The Canyons, Park City Mountain Resort and Deer Valley. Never crossing the same section of trail twice, the course rises over 14,000 feet, pushing athletes to their physical limits.
The Point 2 Point is unique in that it is almost all single-track, said Grant. That makes for a tough day in the saddle because you need to be mentally focused the whole time in order to navigate the technical terrain.
Proper eyewear is a necessity as riders traverse the course. Alex Grant and Marshall Eames wear Kaenon Polarized sunglasses due to the superior optical clarity and protection offered by the patented SR-91 polarized lenses. Preferred by most mountain bikers, the Copper 28 and 50 lens tints (allowing 28% and 50% of essential light to the eye) let riders tune their vision depending on light conditions. Kaenon's collection of Kore Performance sunglasses are the perfect choice for biking in any condition, reducing eye fatigue when riding in and out of shadows, protecting against plants and debris, enhancing contrast when riding on trails, and allowing for increased visual awareness at high speeds.
Riding single-track for seven hours without stopping requires a lot of focused vision, said Grant. You need your eyes to be protected and relaxed rather than strained. Kaenon's ultra-efficient polarized lens does that better than any other lens out there.
About Kaenon Polarized
Since 2001, Kaenon Polarized has continued in its mission to provide elite athletes and active lifestyle enthusiasts with unmatched polarized optics and high-performance frames, all with superior fit and luxurious style. With proprietary and revolutionary SR-91 polarized lenses, Kaenon Polarized continues to push the boundaries of active optics with award-winning performance sunglass styles, all available in Single Vision and Freestyle Progressive prescription.
I researched these glasses for a while...still, they are pretty pricey so I was hesitant to pull the trigger. Finally got these last week, and all I can say is they absolutely live up to the hype. Its hard to accurately describe the clarity of the SR91 lens. These truly are the most optically sharp shades I have ever worn. Got the C12 medium lens...colors are vibrant and really add to depth perception. Glare reduction is incredible with the polarized lens and doesn't come with that "rainbow" effect that happens with lesser polarized lenses. The frames are comfortable and really fit perfectly. Highly recommend these!
The lenses are the best ever. If you want the clarity of the finest glass but the light weight feel of polycarbonate you HAVE TO TRY THESE!!! Highly recommend the Medium lens size for most - and if you are really looking for a technical lens for performance consider the C28 - it is the copper lens w/ 28% light transfer (let's in almost 30% of visible light) perfect for optimal vision in all light conditions.
Love them!
These are the clearest, most comfortable glasses I have ever had. I own 7 pairs too -- everything from Maui Jim to Costa Del Mar's. Nothing compares.
Loving the Kore - great for backcountry skiing
I've been using the Kaenon Kore sunglasses this year for ski touring and regardless of the weather (stormy or sunny) they have far exceeded my expectations.
The 28 lens is the one I ended up getting and it's a solid performer in all but the most intense sun.
Awesome for ski touring
These are some of the most comfortable sunglasses I've ever worn. I love them for ski touring, mountain biking and trail running. These lenses are legit! Worth every penny!
Simply awesome!
I've used several polarized lenses over the years and most of them aren't suitable for mountain or road riding. Though the value of a polarized lenses is most often derived on water or snow, it's great to have reduced glare in all conditions. That said, the Kaenon Kore sunglasses are the only polarized sunglasses I recommend for road or mountain biking. With others, you'll get rainbow splotches as your tearing up the singletrack downhill (not too safe), but with Kaenon's lens technology, you get the clearest vision and best protection available.
Wonderful shades!
Sure, polarized shades are nice for driving (to cut the glare off of the road). But to use Kaenon Kore's for just driving would be like using your Porsche (assuming you have one, which I certainly don't) just for trips to the corner store. No, I really *need* good polarization when I'm sight-fishing for trout, on the snow, or driving on wet roads. Since polarization is so important for fly-fishing, I've gone through polarized shades from Oakley, Maui Jim, Smith, Bolle, Costa Del Mar, Action Optics, etc. And none of these work as well as my Kores (C12) in terms of clarity, comfort, and coverage (i.e., no light gets in around the lenses, and they don't block my field of vision). Yes, they give a little of a "bug-eye" look, but their performance can't be beat! I even like them so much that I picked up another pair with the Y35 lens, and these work great for low-light conditions (before sunrise or after sunset, or on very cloudy days).
If I had to come up with one complaint, it would be that the fit and coverage are so good that air flow is reduced, and these sunglasses can fog up if I'm involved in very aerobic activities. I also have a pair of Hard Kores that I often wear when I'm putting off heat. The Hard Kore is also an excellent pair of shades, but the lens is somewhat smaller (but not small). Which ever one you choose, Kaenon polarized sunglasses are some of the best shades you will ever find.
Kaenon Kore Rocks!
I work outdoors about 6 days a week and my Kore's are the only pair of sunglasses that I can wear all day long(I also own Arnette, Maui Jim and Hobie too). They are very comfortable and do stay put for the most part. Clarity is excellent and the polarization(blk-12 lens) keeps my sensitive eyes from squinting. The only problem I've had w/ the sunglasses is that both ear pads slide off. It's not really a problem if I don't take them off constantly. I purchased them from a friend for cheap, so I can't really complaint. Kaenon puts out a nice product. I also own 2 pairs of Kaenon Rhinos.
Best lenses I've owned
I do a lot of sailboat racing and these are hands down the best polarized lenses I've ever had. I've used Revo, Maui Jim, Ray-Ban, Smith, Bolle, and others, but the Kaenons cannot be beat for clarity and glare reduction. They really help me see the wind on the water. I use the Copper-28 lenses, which are a very good all around lens. They block enough light for really bright days, but are light enough to use on cloudy or hazy days. If you do watersports, you will be very happy with these glasses.
i'm a fly fisherman for trout. what lens...
i'm a fly fisherman for trout. what lens and type of glasses do you recomend?
Polarized, hands down. They will block the glare from the waters surface. Oakley makes the absolute best in optical quality lenses; their polarized/iridium lenses can't be beat.
Check out their site; on it, click on the optical superiority tab. You can learn more about the different lens types. You can even 'see through' the different lens offerings on a simulated window in different outdoor environments. It's pretty cool! Go to www.oakley.com (research there, buy here!)
Hope this Helps.

How do you measure small, medium, large...
How do you measure small, medium, large on glasses?
What's going to change within these sizes is the width and height of the lenses. Small and medium I think have a barely noticeable difference in size. But large is what is pictured for the four different lens color options and it looks to be a medium in the six detailed views just under them.
I believe in ordering these like you would a shake-S,M and L. But for what it's worth here's some more technical info (I know how road bikers work): Medium lens: 4 cm H x 7 cm W, Large lens: 4.5cm H x 7.5cm W. All frame sizes have a 13cm arm length and a 15 cm temple to temple measurement. Also, this sunglass is fast. If you need to know anything else, hit us up!
Write your answer here...Hey Tim!
The frame size is exactly the same for all 3 sizes - only the lens size changes. The medium is by far the most popular lens size that fits most men (and some women). The small fits a lot of women (and some men) and the Large is mostly a men's size and fits really well for those that have a high nose bridge and or broad face.
How do you figure out whether to get a...
How do you figure out whether to get a small, medium, or large size if your are buying online w/out trying them on?
I could be wrong, but I think that the small, medium and large sizes refer to the size of the lens (and not the frame). As shown on the Kaenon web site (http://kaenon.com/product), the large lens extends further down than the small lens. To be sure, I would contact either backcountry.com or Kaenon (the Kaenon web site also has a feature where you can input your gender, fit, sport and environment and it will give recommendation based upon this. Interestingly, the small, medium and large Kore's seem to be recommended whatever your gender and face size)

Born Reginald Dwight in Middlesex, England, the future Elton John discovered his destiny early, tinkering with the piano as a tot of three. Teenager Reg won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music and studied there five years before signing on with Long John Baldry's band Bluesology in the mid 60s. Taking his name from Baldry and bandmate Elton Dean, Elton John left Baldry and teamed up with the man who would become his longtime writing partner, lyricist Bernie Taupin.
The sweetly sentimental "Your Song," John's 1970 breakthrough hit, was far from his first single. The 1968 dud "I've Been Loving You" was an ill-conceived attempt to capitalize on the popularity of big ballad singers like Engelbert Humperdinck and Tom Jones; 1969's "Lady Samantha" didn't score either, but found John on the verge of discovering his artistic voice, and was covered by Three Dog Night. Since "Your Song," it's been full speed ahead, of course.
During a career spanning five decades, the Rocket Man has released more than 30 albums, and is one of the top-selling artists of all time, with more than 300 million records sold worldwide.
Sir Elton continues to influence ...
On December 8, 1943, James Douglas "Jim" Morrison was born. The lead singer of the Doors lived a short, tragic life. He was only 27 when he died of heart failure in Paris, France. But, musically, Morrison accomplished a tremendous amount in his six years with the Doors. As Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Vice President of Exhibitions and Curatorial Jim Henke wrote in his book, The Jim Morrison Scrapbook: "From 1967 to 1970, during his spectacular zenith, Jim Morrison seemingly had it all. He was an internationally revered rock star with numerous hit records to his credit, a dynamic stage performer, an alluring sex symbol, and a published poet." The Doors formed in the summer of 1965 around Morrison and keyboardist Ray Manzarek, who'd met at UCLA's film school. A year later the group signed with Elektra Records, recording six landmark studio LPs – including their '67 self-titled debut, Morrison Hotel and L.A. Woman – and a live album for the label. The group's dark, brooding personality came largely from singer Jim Morrison.
The Museum is home to many Jim Morrison artifacts that help tell the Morrison story, such as his Cub Scout uniform and a ...
On November 27, 1942, arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music was born: Jimi Hendrix. In less than three decades, he expanded the range and vocabulary of the electric guitar into areas no musician had ever ventured before. His boundless drive, technical ability and creative application of such effects as wah-wah and distortion forever transformed the sound of rock and roll. Hendrix helped usher in the age of psychedelia with his 1967 debut, Are You Experienced, and the impact of his brief but meteoric career on popular music continues to be felt.
More than any other musician, Jimi Hendrix realized the fullest range of sound that could be obtained from an amplified instrument. He was influenced by the songwriting of Bob Dylan and the Beatles, and bridged myriad genres, from acid rock, Delta blues and free jazz to hardcore funk, R&B and soul. Yet the songs and sounds generated by Hendrix were original, otherworldly and virtually indescribable. In essence, Hendrix channeled the music of the cosmos, anchoring it to the earthy beat of rock and roll.
Hendrix was born Johnny Allen Hendrix in Seattle to 17-year-old mother Lucille Jeter and father James "Al" Hendrix, who was ...
On November 20, 1946, legendary guitarist Duane Allman was born in Nashville, Tennessee. His unparalleled guitar work, songwriting and inspiring presence helped earn his namesake band a deserved place in the pantheon of rock and roll, and made him an icon.
As the principal architects of Southern rock, the Allman Brothers Band forged this new musical offshoot from elements of blues, jazz, soul, R&B and rock and roll. Along with the Grateful Dead and Cream, they help advance rock as a medium for improvisation. Their kind of jamming required a level of technical virtuosity and musical literacy that was relatively new to rock & roll, which had theretofore largely been a song-oriented medium. Duane Allman and Dickey Betts – The original guitarists in the Allman Brothers Band – broke that barrier with soaring, extended solos. Combined with organist Gregg Allman's gruff, soulful vocals and Hammond B3 organ, plus the forceful, syncopated drive of a rhythm section that included two drummers, the Allman Brothers Band were a blues-rocking powerhouse from their beginnings in 1969. Moreover, their success paved the way for other bands from the South, including Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Marshall Tucker Band, and the Charlie Daniels Band.
For more than 30 years, Florida native Tom Petty has been the charismatic frontman and voice of among the most durable, resourceful, hard-working, likable, unpretentious and capable rock bands of all time. Together with the Heartbreakers – which has include bassist Ron Blair, guitarist Mike Campbell, bassist Howie Epstein, drummer Stan Lynch and keyboardist Benmont Tench – he mastered rock and roll's fundamentals and digested its history, leading a band of the people, writing of everyday struggles and frustrations – and offering redemption through tough-minded, big-hearted, tuneful songs. The 2002 Hall of Fame inductee turns 61 today.
Although they were not punk-rockers per se, Petty and the Heartbreakers did their part to revitalize rock in the mid-to-late Seventies with their first three albums: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ("Breakdown," "American Girl"), You're Gonna Get It! ("I Need to Know," "Listen to Her Heart") and Damn the Torpedoes – the latter one of the essential rock albums of the decade.
Strong from start to finish, Torpedoes contained the classic tracks "Refugee," "Even the Losers," "Don't Do Me Like That" and "Here Comes My Girl." It also revealed Petty's depth of conviction and fighting nature. When his record company changed hands, Petty ...
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news: it's Chuck Berry's birthday.
Let's hear it for the man who taught us about everything from cooling off your car's engine with rain water blowin' all under the hood, to all we needed to know about girls named "Carol" and "Nadine." In fact, the Shakespeare of rock and roll informed us about most the things we needed to know in those nascent days of the music that's become the soundtrack of our lives.
Imagine what it meant to me when he referred to my hometown of Mobile in "Let It Rock." It was great being with you recently, Mr. Berry, and it thrills me that you are still knockin' 'em out like Johnny B. Goode.

Otis Redding would have celebrated his 70th birthday today, so we're delighted that the opening of the Rock Hall's Otis Redding exhibit coincides with and commemorates his birth and remarkable life. The spotlight exhibit allows Redding's life and legacy to shine through with a collection of treasured personal effects and career mementos.
Otis Redding's life and music embodied the essence of soul. He was a self-professed country boy from Macon, Georgia, and he had it all: a big, gravelly voice, an immense gift for songwriting and a generous, hardworking disposition. There was earthiness and candor in his every performance, be it slow, soulful ballads like "I've Been Loving You Too Long" and "Try a Little Tenderness" or fast-paced numbers like "Respect" and "I Can't Turn You Loose." Producer Jerry Wexler said of Redding's performances, "You could feel this plea coming from him." Bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn of Booker T. and the MG's recalled: "Otis would come in, and boy, he'd just bring everybody up. 'Cause you knew something was gonna be different. When Otis was there, it was just revitalization of the whole thing. You wanted to play with Otis. He ...
Seventy-four years after Buddy Holly's birth, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee received a Hollywood birthday bash befitting his status as one of the entertainment world's brightest stars. On what would've been his 75th birthday, Buddy Holly was awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. His star is located directly in front of the Capitol Records building on Vine Street, situated next to John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr (Paul McCartney's star space is reserved but not yet realized). Holly never recorded for Capitol, but he and The Crickets were a direct influence on the Beatles – the literal root and inspiration for their insect namesake and sound – which makes the location poignantly appropriate.
Fellow Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and rock pioneer Phil Everly of the Everly Brothers, Peter Asher of Peter and Gordon and actor Gary Busey, who portrayed Holly in the biographical film, The Buddy Holly Story, paid homage to their friend and inspiration, each giving moving speeches at the unveiling of Holly's Hollywood star. Just before the star was revealed, Holly's widow Maria Elena Holly gave a touching speech speaking directly to his fans ...

I for one don't mind if they tank - cannot stand KSU! They have no point guard who can create off the dribble - Rodriguez's departure hurt them BIG TIME! Spradling at point reminds me of our experiment with Scott C running the point - except that Scotty was a 1000x better shooter than Spradling.

Bad, bad loss.
Not to overstate after a specific loss like that, but gut feeling says Weber will squeeze into the tournament at 11-12-play-in level with teams projected as 6-7-8 seeds, for however long he's at K-State.

In regards to Herman Cain and the accusations against him.
It's this: (Via Alhouse)
20 years later and it is the same song and dance —- except for one thing, it is coming from right and not the left, as it is being reported in some quarters.
In regards to Herman Cain and the accusations against him.
It's this: (Via Alhouse)
20 years later and it is the same song and dance —- except for one thing, it is coming from right and not the left, as it is being reported in some quarters.
I must say, I am shocked; I figured that they would keep it to silly posts mocking Herman Cain or Tut-Tutting him. But no, the Trent Lott syndrome subset of the Republican Party, that Lilly white Republican establishment is feeling threatened. So, now they are dredging up his past.
Despite what people like this lily-white Catholic woman here say; — who seems to suffer from some sort of Trent Lott syndrome or maybe it is the fact that she really needs to go have a baby or something. It can only help her, then perhaps she will stop posting dopey stories about baby pictures — and tormenting Conservative black men who run for President — Herman Cain can win this election, if racist remnants of the Trent Lott era of the Republican, like the woman linked above, would just leave him alone. It does seem to be their M.O. as of late; discredit the token Negro, so that they can protect the ivory-white tower of Republicanism that they have been occupying for so very long.
My question is this, to all two of you, that might actually read this posting; if the Republican Party is truly the Party of Lincoln; is it not time that we, as white Conservatives, have stopped trying to prevent blacks, who might actually be able to represent that Party the way it is supposed to be represented — from actually running for office and winning? Case in point: Allen Keyes.
Having said that, here is nice video made by a new group called Americans for Herman Cain:
Therefore, please, Republicans, do the right thing here, support a man, who loves his Country and wants to make it a better place for you and me — and our Children and their Children. Donate to Herman Cain.
Corrected some grammar errors in the original posting — what I get for typing so fast. 😀
Before anyone flips their cork —- That is a rhetorical question.
Remember the Antisemitism that I wrote about at the #OccupyWallStreet protests?
Well, it seems now; that a very well known Conservative Jewish Blogger is being called a "Fake Jew"; by one of her own people, who happens to be a liberal Democrat.
This is about as bad, as the video I posted earlier, of Herman Cain being berated by a liberal white man.
Let me give you a reality check; it is the same mentality. You wander off the plantation; whether it is the black liberal plantation or the Jewish liberal camp plantation —- you do this, and they attack you, with both barrels.
It is the same mentality of Adolf Hitler. One of, "you either submit to our mindset, or we destroy you." Only difference is, liberals cannot round up Blacks and Jews and put them in camps.
I do not know where to begin with this video.
First, Lawrence O'Donnell tries to accuse Herman Cain of draft dodging. Then, he accuses him of various idiot things. Not to mention the "Citizen Cain" in the Chyron at the bottom of the screen. Not to mention the whole condescending tone of the entire video.
There is only one thing that comes to my mind, when watching these videos — Racism. 😡
I mean, could you just imagine, if a Fox News Channel anchor had handled an interview like this, with a black man? There would be protests outside of the News Corp. Building, Fox News Channels studios in New York, and Al Sharpton would be calling for Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch's head!
Here are the videos, all three parts. You watch these video and you tell me, if they are not racist or not.
Via Mediaite:
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Again, watch the videos and think about if Fox News or any other Conservative outlet sounded this condescending or used "Citizen Cain" as a Chyron. What could the reaction be? I think we all know the answer.
Nothing pisses me off worse, than to watch a privileged white man, who happens to be a liberal; berate a black man, all because he happens to disagree with his politics. That is an outrage and if the Conservative media, including Fox News Channel, ever pulled a stunt like that, there would be riots in the streets. But because Mr. Herman Cain is a Conservative black man — it is perfectly fine. Hell, even this self-hating black man thinks its fine. What an asshole, what a traitor to the back race — sort of like this Murdering, race-hustling, jack ass, who is now dead.
This is another fine reason why I stopped voting for the Democrats, because it is like LBJ said himself:
I'll have them niggers voting for democrats for 300 years!
…and you know what? The Democrats are keeping 'em voting Democratic Party; with hand outs and yes, with Brainwashing.
Update: Even the liberals at DailyKos are not happy with the interview: (H/T Flopping Aces)
1) When you think of Herman Cain, do you ever find yourself thinking, "gee, he was a black teen in the early-1960s. Why didn't he participate in civil rights movement?" I'm not an African-American and wasn't alive in the '60s, but so what if he didn't? I am not sure what the implication is there, but was it incumbent upon ever African-American to march? And does not participating in the civil rights movement imply … what? I suppose it might be a fairer question to ask a white person who was around in that era, but only slightly.
I'm going to go out on a limb and presume that Herman Cain was opposed to segregation.
2) Out of nowhere, O'Donnell asked Cain, who worked (but did not serve) in the Navy, whether he was qualified to be Commander-in-Chief after not serving in Vietnam. Really?! Is this still a thing? I have a hard time believing that O'Donnell genuinely cares about Cain's lack of military service (Clinton and Obama never served), but was possibly trying to posit him as a hypocrite. But that's kind of hard to do when, while not exactly serving, he was working in ballistics for the Navy.
Seemed like a completely disingenuous line of questioning on O'Donnell's part, and made me cringe.
I'll be darned, I no sooner push out a story as to why this race-hustler started killing people, and I discover that has assumed room temperature.
Shareef Allman, the man suspected of killing three people and wounding seven others during a workplace shooting, has been shot and killed this morning by Santa Clara County Sheriff's deputies, according to multiple law enforcement agencies.
Allman was fatally shot at about 7:20 a.m. after being found at a house in Sunnyvale, according to multiple law enforcement agencies.
Lt. Rick Sung of the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office said a man was shot this morning by sheriff's deputies who had been searching for Allman in the same neighborhood of Wednesday's massive manhunt. The Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety will investigate the officer-involved shooting.
A law enforcement source said Allman knew somebody who lives on Lorne Way.
via Suspect in Cupertino shooting spree has been shot and killed – San Jose Mercury News.
I hate to be the one to say it; but, it could not have happened to a better person. Well, maybe Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton or even Ed Brayton. ( 😯 ) '
Anyhow, the point I am making here is this; if you use your race to act as a shield for your poor job performance, and when that does not work anymore — you kill people? You die, especially if you pull a gun on a police officer. I do not care what race you are, this sort of stuff is just wrong. What burns my rear about this; is the liberal left, will use this tragic incident to try and advocate for stricter gun laws.
Another thing that really burns my bottom side; is that the liberal left and their cohorts in the media; will act like this crime never even happened. If anything at all; the man will be seen as a martyr to the race-hustling crowd. That's right, he will be seen as a hero to these people; and not as the criminal murder, that he really was.
But then again, we are talking about the liberal left — none of this should be a big surprise to the rest of America.
The dude was a lousy unsafe driver and used his race as a shield; and when that little gig was up, he started killing people.
Here is hoping that this morally depraved piece of human excrement is put out of his own misery by the police.
Shareef Allman is a disgrace to the black race. Not to mention a two-bit phony.
The really ironic part, he did not just kill white people; he killed Latinos as well. That alone ought to have the Latino community out in California pissed off.
But to listen to the NAACP out there talk; this dude was a Christian man. To which I ask; by what standards?!?
Another thing too; this sick incident, where an angry black man shoots and kills those, who he has a problem with, will be used to try and enact stricter gun laws — which is absolutely stupid.
People that lecture on such stuff should never allow it to happen on their blog.
Just sayin' ya'll.

This is why this video, which is in my "About this Blog" section is so important! Here is the REAL relevant part of this video:
You people on Mobile devices might not be able to see the snipped video; but the rest of us can.
This my friends, is why I blog. We simply cannot allow haters to scapegoat this economic recession on a particular group of people. It is anti-freedom to do so. For this and many other reasons, is why I write.
For the record, it was not just one person either; it was many. This video is via Fox Nation:
Notice how when he realizes he is on camera; he really gets into the spiel and really begins the berate the Jewish man standing there? This is what these haters are all about; attention for their cause, which is unabashed hatred. It is one of the downsides of being a free Republic. Even the idiots have a right to their say.

Ed Morrissey says:
If African-Americans don't do well among Republicans, it's evidence of racism, and now if they do get support among Republicans, that's also racism. It's an unanswerable assertion that not only is completely circular in its logic, it's also lunacy. Basically, Garofalo is kind of like a cult member who insists that every data point supports her religious belief, regardless of whether it contradicts with other data points that are also used in defense of groupthink. That means she's making the argument in the right venue, anyway.
Which explains why I stopped voting for the Democratic Party, I just do not do "group think," at all. Further more, the Democratic Party was the party of segregation and of the Klan. So, this is a piss poor attempt to deflect the attention away from them. It's sheer craziness and I am convinced that this chick is crazy, along with her host; which is why he is no longer on MSNBC.
This is why I believe very strongly in the second amendment.
The Video:
Philly.com reports:
ABOUT 11 P.M. on Sept. 9, dozens of youths with bats and pipes descended on a tidy residential area of Port Richmond looking for white teens who allegedly had attacked an African-American kid at Stokely Playground a couple of hours earlier.
Two fearful white teens spotted Mark LaVelle on Indiana Avenue near Belgrade Street and asked for help. Suddenly, the mob appeared. LaVelle, who said that he didn't know the two kids, who looked to be 13 or 14, ran with them into his nearby house.
" 'We got you, you white mother——-!' " LaVelle said he heard someone yell in the "mob" of black and Hispanic youths.
Inside his house, LaVelle, 37, called to his wife, Kim, 30, to go to their bedroom with their twin 13-month-old boys, Mark and Mason, and to call police. He also ordered his two other sons, 11 and 17, and his nephew, 7, to stay upstairs.
With the two teens hiding in the house, LaVelle, 5 feet 10, 220 pounds, a well-known sports-league organizer and coach in the community, went outside to try to calm the angry mob.
They were standing on his steps. One shouted, " 'Something's going to happen now!' " LaVelle recalled in an interview Friday at his house. LaVelle got nervous and went back inside, locking his door with a deadbolt.
But the attackers pounded on his front windows and kicked his wooden door so hard, it flew open and some of them entered his house.
"The first guy hits me with a pipe. The second guy knocks me in the face. All I'm hearing is my wife and kids screaming," said LaVelle, who feared that the next time they saw him, he would be in a casket.
He said that he was able to push the attackers out the door, but then a third man – who had a gun – tried to extend his arm. LaVelle grabbed onto the gunman's lower arm and shoulder so he couldn't raise the weapon. Then, police sirens screamed in the neighborhood, and the mob turned and ran…
…LaVelle said that the next day the mother of the juvenile came back with some other people, banging on his door, screaming. LaVelle, who was at a charity sports event, was called back to the house by one of his sons.
When he got home, LaVelle said, the mother yelled at him, " 'You white mother——, you got my kid locked up! You got my son locked up because he's black, you're white!' " The mother claimed that her son had been "a witness," not an attacker. To that, LaVelle said if that were true, it would come out in court.
But the mother, according to LaVelle, then yelled: " 'If you make it to court! I know where you live!' "
All the more reason to buy a gun and get licensed to own it and buy lots and lots of ammo! (and not just click links! You know who you are! BUY THE STUFF!) Just think how differently this would have turned out, had this guy been armed.

The video is over at FOX NATION
Nice, gotta love that new tone.
I am not someone who likes to play the race card or even assert a racist charge, because that is the left's game. However, I saw this; and I thought, "wait a second…."
I happened to read over at HotAir.com, a news item by Tina (original politico story here…) about the founder of Tea Party Nation's founder Judson Phillips, who endorsed Newt Gingrich. My issue is not with the endorsement, but with some of the words used. I will make those words very clear here and explain why they bother me:
Tea Party Nation founder and CEO Judson Phillips has endorsed Newt Gingrich in the Republican primary, he writes in a blog post.
"Newt is electable. If you have seen the GOP debates, Gingrich has been the best debater. He does really well in that format and he looks Presidential," Phillips, a former Tennessee district attorney who founded Tea Party Nation in 2009, wrote.
Here is a picture of the "Presidential Looking" Newt Gingrich:
…and a picture of the Florida Straw poll winner, Herman Cain:
What I want to know from Mr. Judson Phillips is this; what does he mean by "Looking Presidential?" I want him or anyone else in the Republican Party or in the Tea Party movement to define those terms. Because I am going to remind everyone of this — we are the party of Lincoln and when we start using terms like this; which could very well be underhanded racism — we bring a discredit to the Tea Party movement, which admittedly by Fox News, has already started fading out. The Republican Party is supposed to be the party of racial, class and Christian unity. However, when it see words like this; it trips my radar a little.
My point is this, we do not need to start fostering a "Trent Lott" mentality in the Republican Party. We see how well that worked out for them in the past. For the record, yes, I have criticized Herman Cain in the past, when I thought it was deserved; but this sort of idiotic nonsense is uncalled for, and I think Mr. Phillips needs to explain just what he meant by what he said. Further more, I left the Democratic Party, because of the class warfare, the disunity between the races and the "Pot Stirring" between the races. I am well aware of the questionable past of some of the GOP's greats of the past; and my point here is, we no NOT need to go back to that era — not now and not ever. We have cleansed that party of the bigots and haters and relegated them to the sidelines. Here is hope and praying that we do not go down that path again. Because as a kid who grew up, not out here in the "Whitey Tighty" suburbs of Detroit. But in the inner city of Detroit, notably the Southwest side of Detroit. Which means, yes, I grew up now only around White people; but Latinos, and yes, even black people. I still to this day, have many black friends. So, when I hear language like this; my antenna goes up and I start asking questions.
Just my thoughts and I'd like to hear yours.
Remember President Barack Obama's command to the CBC to "quit whining?"
Well, that went over like a lead balloon with those folks.
Here's the Video: (H/T HotAir.com)
Ah yes, identity politics Democratic Party style. a perfect example of why I stopped voting for them.
An aside, check out some of the comments over at HotAir.com. Some seriously funny stuff there! 😆 😀
As you know, Herman Cain, who is a very successful businessman and also a black Conservative, won the straw poll in Florida. As you also know, I just pointed out some serious racism by the left. Well, the democrats are not disappointing; check out some of the racist or "So damned close to being racist without sounding racist" as you can get.
All of these postings are actual blog postings by liberal blogs about Herman Cain and the night is young:
"Update: And it's official. Pizza King Cain wins the straw poll. By a lot" — The Impolitic — "Another day in the clown car – Update"
I have also heard Herman Cain referred to as Herman "Greasy Pizza" Cain too; which is just another way of calling him a greasy n-word. I mean, why not just say that?
Apparently, the Republicans are doing one of these stupid Straw Polls in Floridatoday. The problem is, the base hates all the candidates, which makes picking someone in the Straw Poll a bit of a challenge. Byron York speculates that Herman Cain might do better than expected because no one feels like voting for Rick Perry after he called them heartless. This makes sense to me because the most obvious to do if someone calls you out on your heartless hatred of Latinos is to vote for the black guy. 'See? I'm not a racist who thinks minorities are biting into too much of my paycheck. I'm color blind.'
Can you feel the Cainmentum? — Booman Tribune
Can you feel the racism?
Florida straw poll voters decided they hate everyone and voted for the only candidate who's never held public office, Herman Cain. — Crooks and Liars
So what if Herman Cain has never held public office? Why is that a problem to Democrats? I mean, Barack Obama's time in office was not that great. Why is this an issue? Because Herman Cain is a black Conservative. That my friends is classic Democratic Party racism.
and finally:
I'd say that Republicans couldn't be crazy enough to nominate Herman Cain … but then again, they also nominated Christine O'Donnell, Sharron Angle, Joe Miller, Ken Buck, and, yes, Sarah Palin.
So, why would not the Republicans be crazy to nominate Herman Cain? Because he is black and a Conservative? Racism much John Amato? Just saying...
….and the night is young. If I spot anymore racism, I will post it here.
Update: Wow… Push out a post and find more of it:
Yes, running a chain of pizza parlors is just like running a country. Just yell, and the employees will scamper around and bring those cheese suppliers to heel.
In a field that might be called Mittens and the Seven Clowns, the base definitely prefers the clowns. — The Mahablog
A Black Conservative being called "a clown" by a Democrat, that sounds about right. Unreal.
Update #2: Stupid is, as stupid does.
I hate to be the one to do it. But… someones got to say it.
Oliver Willis is a liberal blogger. He's also a racist against white people.
Don't believe me?
Check out this posting here.
Notice the SKIN COLOR of the people he refers to as "Hobos" in the picture of the people that are "occupying" wall street?
…and then notice the SKIN COLOR of the people he classifies as "Dignified People?"
So, Oliver Willis can call white people Hobo's, spooks, crackers, and other such lovely names. But if I called one of his people the n-word — or worse — and if I used photos of blacks and referred to them as stupid bums and used pictures of White People and called them upstanding American citizens — I would be denounced as a racism bigot and most likely ignored.
I thought that the elected of Barack Obama was supposed to be the beginning of post-racial America? I guess not.
This is another reason why I left the Democratic Party; because of their two-faced, hypocritical attitude towards racism and their stupid definition of racism even is.
This right here, ought to be Oliver Willis theme song, because it's the same fucking attitude:
Wow. Just Wow... 😯
This is a blog posting that I have been wanting to write for a few days now. I happen to follow the guy, that I am about to link to on twitter and I saw the link to this blog entry go whizzing by and at the time, I did not have the time to write about it. But, now, I do. So, here goes…
I have been chided by people who dislike me in the past for having a account at stormfront.org. One of which was yanked, because I did not agree with their simple-minded nonsense.
Anyhow, looks like someone else ran headlong into the totalitarian rules at that website/forum/cesspool.
Click here to read all about it. – PLEASE NOTE: The following link that you are about to click on, is a blog that contains very frank discussions on race. Some people might be seriously offended by what they see and read there. Please, in the name of sensibility; do not assume that I agree with the contents of that site. I simply linked it, for your educational and enlightenment. In other words, I am not a hate-mongering tool and I should not be lumped in with them. Thanks. It might not be safe for work either; so consider this your obligatory content warning.
You know, I hate to be an a-hole about this sort of a thing. But there just some things that I cannot and will not overlook.
Anyhow, some woman of Arab and Jewish decent was detained at Detroit Metro Airport on a flight from Denver. She was strip-searched and now has taken to her blog to whine about it and also use racist imagery. For the record, here is a news article about it.
She starts her blog posting:
Silly me. I thought flying on 9/11 would be easy. I figured most people would choose not to fly that day so lines would be short, planes would be lightly filled and though security might be ratcheted up, we'd all feel safer knowing we had come a long way since that dreadful Tuesday morning 10 years ago.
But then armed officers stormed my plane, threw me in handcuffs and locked me up.
At first, when I started reading the post; I actually felt sorry for the lady. You know, innocent woman being strip-searched and such. But then, as I got further in the article, I started seeing things like this:
They took him to another room, and I heard an officer tell him to remove his clothes. He was going to be searched. I could not fully grasp what was happening. I stared at the yellow walls and listened to a few officers talk about the overtime they were racking up, and I decided that I hated country music. I hated speedboats and shitty beer in coozies and fat bellies and rednecks. I thought about Abu Ghraib and the horror to which those prisoners were exposed. I thought about my dad and his prescience. I was glad he wasn't alive to know about what was happening to me. I thought about my kids, and what would have happened if they had been there when I got taken away. I contemplated never flying again. I thought about the incredible waste of taxpayer dollars in conducting an operation like this. I wondered what my rights were, if I had any at all. Mostly, I could not believe I was sitting in some jail cell in some cold, undisclosed building surrounded by "the authorities."
Another female officer, this one in jeans and a t-shirt came to visit me. She introduced herself as an agent–Homeland Security. She removed my handcuffs and had me follow her to a different room down a long hall and through a few doors. As we walked, I got a glimpse of the watch-stealer, a chubby middle-aged white guy with a buzz cut. He didn't look too different from some of the officers.
After fingerprinting me and asking me about my height/weight/place and date of birth and so on, a middle-aged white cop with a beer belly and a flat top returned me–without handcuffs–to the cell. I waited, wondering if I would be spending the night locked up. I thought about the last words my husband said to me while I was still on the plane waiting on the tarmac, "They must have found out there was a Hebshi on the plane." We joke about this at times, that because of my ethnicity I am being scrutinized but I had no intention of putting that out to the universe and making it happen.
…and the real humdinger is this one:
I thought about Malcom X and how bravely and fastidiously he studied and wrote while he was in prison, how his solitude enabled him to transform his anger into social change and personal betterment. That's when I decided to write this post. I needed to explain what had happened–was happening–to me. I was not going to be silent. Still, I wondered what my rights were, and though I felt violated and scared I wasn't sure that our new laws protected me from this treatment.
There is also this….:
I wondered what my rights were, and though I felt violated and scared I wasn't sure that our new laws protected me from this treatment.
If this woman wants any sympathy from me, she needs to get off of the racist stereotypes of white people. If I would have penned this article, ripping on this woman, because she happens to be a Jewish/Arab half breed, I would be called every sort of names, you know, like Anti-Semitic and racist? I found that to be extremely offensive and I told her so, in some very colorful language as to that fact.
Further more, what about the people in the World Trade Center towers, who had to choose between burning alive or being crushed to death or jumping from the building and dying. You do not think those people did not feel violated and scared?
Again, I do not cheer this woman's misfortune, but this is the era we live in; the post-911 era. Thanks to the action of a group of Arab Muslim terrorists, we now live into a era of hyper-security. If this woman wants to register a complaint; she should try registering it to Al-Qaeda, better yet, let her register a complaint to the Muslim community here in America and abroad and condemn them for not standing up and saying that they are not doing enough to stand up against radical Muslims.
I have to wonder, how much of that story was embellished or as we usually call it — made up?
Remember folks, As Debbie Schlussel says, 9/11 was a MUSLIM Job and we, the American people were the true victims, not Arabs or Muslims. But then again, this woman sounds like a moronic liberal idiot, who always thinks directly backward of a sane, rational, human being. As Dr. Michael Savage says — Liberalism is a mental disorder. Update: Don't believe me? Just look right here. How stupid can people be?!?

Update: It appears that my article has hit a nerve. I got one thing to say…:
You see, nobody thought of their rights. No one cared. Liberals, Muslims and Democrats thought we were the "Great Satan" and deserved it. This is why I bitched about this article.
More of that Religion of peace here for ya.

Wow…..Just Wow. 😯
In a sane World, this man would be arrested for treason or at the very least arrested for inciting violence against American Soldiers.
These are Obama's people. Remember this, come November of 2012.
But yet, MSNBC and Democrats want you to believe that we Conservatives are the racists and the terrorists.
I am looking at this posting over at HotAir.com.
I cannot comment over there, because I do not have access.
I did not even watch that idiotic video, nor do I want to.
No, Ron Paul is not the "One" nor will he ever be!
Because of crap like this!
This comes via Newsone.com:
There has been controversy over Ron Paul's ties to racism for some time now. Many people have pointed to Ron Paul's Newsletters as proof of his racism. Paul has previously admitted to writing the newsletters and defended the statements in 1996, then blamed them on an unnamed ghostwriter in 2001 and then denied any knowledge of them in 2008. He has given no explanation, for how the racism entered his newsletter. If we are to take Paul at his word, he is guilty of at least promoting racism on a large scale. Paul earned almost a million dollars a year from the racist, conspiracy theorist newsletters. Here are some excerpts that I've found.
In this story Ron Paul writes about "needlin" and blames packs of young black girls for spreading AIDS to white women. I could find no evidence of this "epidemic" and the article seems to have no point other than to make white people scared of Black people.
In this piece he criticizes Martin Luther King as a pro-communist philanderer and says the MLK holiday is "Hate Whitey Day." This is in great contrast to 2008 when he told Wolf Blitzer that Martin Luther King was one of his heroes. When activists suggested naming a city after Martin Luther King Paul suggested other names such as "Welfaria," "Zooville," "Rapetown," "Dirtburg," and "Lazyopolis" He would continue:
In another piece he blamed Black people for the riots that happened in Chicago in 1992 after the Bulls won the NBA Championship
Paul here is using false information to attack African Americans. The Washington Post reported that 1000 people were arrested but did not indicate their race. The riot, like most sports riots was multi-racial, including Blacks, white and Latinos, yet Paul used the incident to demonize African Americans. The Washington Post also reported that two officers suffered minor gunshot wounds and that 95 were injured in total, but the way Paul phrased it, it would seem most of the 95 officers injured were shot.
In this article Paul uses the "carjacking" epidemic to put fear into white people. He advises them to carry guns and shoot "carjackers" illegally and then dispose of their weapons. He also refers Black people as "animals" and directly refers to his home town of Lake Jackson, Texas.
The newsletters also contained the quotes:
opinion polls consistently show only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions
if you have ever been robbed by a black teen-aged male, you know how unbelievably fleet-footed they can be,
This is only the first skirmish in the race war of the 1990s
Here are some of the newsletters I could find. They also contain a good deal of homophobic and Black Helicopter, New World Order conspiracy theories and warnings of upcoming in "race wars."
I love it when the mask slips and left shows their true colors.
This comes from a rather nasty left wing blogger, whom I will not directly link to; sorry, I do not want his kind here:
For the record, he was referring to the story about lefty money man George Soros and how he might have made money on the downgrade of the US credit rating.
Either way, this is just sick, and I am shocked and appalled that Jane Hamsher would allow such tripe on that blog of hers. The sad part is, I praised this woman for having the guts to stand up against the liberal establishment and blog against Obamacare. I think now in hindsight that might have been a bit premature of me. Sorry Jane, you blew it here babe.
There was a time in this Country, who Jews were never spoken ill of by the Democrats and there was a mutual respect of the Jewish people and their cause by the Democrats and their party. This was especially the case after World War II. Sadly, those days are gone forever; the Democratic Party of today and the Marxists that occupy it, see minorities of all stripes to be a means to an end — that being a vote. This changed happened after the signing of the civil rights act of 1964.
I could go on and on about this; but I would just be repeating what I have already written here before. I just wanted everyone to see what is happening on the other side, seeing that the Democrats are losing the war of ideas, seeing that Barack Obama's popularity and ability to Govern is diminishing.
First, let me say this; I do not advocate what happened in this video to come. Any sort of hate crime is awful and the guys who did this, ought to be sentenced to death.
The Video: (Via CNN)
Yes that above is horrible and the media rightly is bringing it to attention, But, when blacks attack whites or when Muslims shoot up a Military base; nothing it said by media outlets, nothing is said. I just do not understand it.
What I want to know is; how do they know this person was involved? That video was grainy. I did not see any definite proof that this man even did it! Not only that; how do we know this man did not provoke the attack? How can we trust the credibility of the witnesses; are they black too? Can we trust them? I'm sure there are answers for all that; but the report did not include those answers.
Again, I do not justify this madness; I simply am pointing out the double standard. I guess you could say that I have "a dog in the fight."
Again, let me state this; both crimes, the one above in the video and the one I linked; which is to previous posting of mine — are equally wrong, evil, immoral and should be punished as such. I just do not understand why the liberal media does not treat them equally. They should, but they do not.
I really hate having to write stuff like this, but I fear if I do not, this could start to become commonplace on the right. As everyone who reads here knows — I have developed a zero tolerance policy against hate speech towards Israel and her people. Well, if I am going to be that militant about the Israeli people and their land, I should be as militant about those who support her.
It appears that Jim Hoft, the owner of the Conservative Blog called "Gateway Pundit" is taken to mocking Christians on his blog. This posting here is what I am referring. My point is simply this:
Jim Hoft would not mock or deride Jews like this, He would not mock Roman Catholics like this, nor would he mock or deride Peaceful Muslims like this — so, why a group of Black Baptists who had a small group of people get out of hand? Could it be because Jim Hoft has an inbred hatred of Christians — even Baptists — or is it that he might possibly has an inbred hatred of blacks? Those are important questions to ask, I feel and I would like to see his answer.
The reason why I am making a fuss about this is here; after the end of the Bush Administration and the end of the tenure of the Neo-Conservative majority and influence in the Republican Party there was this shift back to traditional Conservatism. Which when it comes to foreign policy matters is a great thing. However, it also seems that there is a rise in a sarcastic and in some instances a hostile attitude towards Christians in the Conservative and Libertarian Blogosphere.
There also has been a dramatic rise in hostility towards people of the Jewish Faith and linage on the right as well. There has been, since September 11, 2001 there has been a great deal of hostility towards peaceful Muslims as well. There is a line, between a genuine concern for our Country against Muslim extremists and a general hatred of Arabs and Muslims. That line has blurred greatly in the last few years. To be blunt about it: Norway was a wakeup call to everyone in the Anti-Jihad movement. Hatred and Bigotry will not stop those in the Islamic Extremists movement; it will simply give them more ammunition against us. The Anti-Jihad movement needs to figure who the haters are, round them up, and publicly cast them out of the movement and shun them.
Further, let me also say this; I will be the very to admit that I have some serious issues with the social Conservative movement. I know feel well about the stupidity within those ranks. Furthermore, I also have a great disdain for the fascist mentality of those, who want to install a Christian version of Sharia law in this Country, toss out our Constitution, and dictate our laws directly from the Bible. Those people, who are a small minority in the Conservative Christian circles, are as dangerous, as the radical Muslims and the radical progressives whom wish to destroy our Country. Because I am a libertarian-minded Conservative, I will fight against those people on this blog, until my dying breath. I believe in personal freedom and that means freedom from a Religion, if you so desire.
I find this idiotic mocking of those who happen to believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God in Heaven and that the Holy Bible, or in my case; the King James Bible — is the Word of the Living God and contains the path to Eternal Life — to be highly offensive and very much repugnant. Furthermore, I question the Conservative credentials of those who partake in this abject practice.
In closing let me say this; this blog was never intended to be a "Christian Blog", nor was it ever intended to be a "Christian defense" blog. However, when one's religion is being mocked, oppressed and attacked, one most decide, "Do I stand, or do I remain silent?" I choose to speak out.
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 10:32-33 KJV)
Also I say unto you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God. And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven. (Luke 12:8-10 KJV)
Update #2: When I originally wrote this, I wrote it in an sarcastic manner. A few people emailed me concerned that my tone was overly hateful and even glorifying of a mass murderer. To them and to anyone who might have gotten the wrong idea, I do apologize. I no more would praise Charles Manson than I would Madeline Murray O'hair.
My intention was never to stoke hatred; but merely to inform those of the liberal bias and to encourage people to arm themselves.

The Story via TMJ 4 News:
WEST ALLIS – Witnesses tell Newsradio 620 WTMJ and TODAY'S TMJ4 of a mob of young people attacking innocent fair-goers at the end of the opening night of State Fair, with some callers claiming a racially-charged scene.
Milwaukee Police confirmed there were assaults outside the fair.
Witnesses' accounts claim everything from dozens to hundreds of young black people beating white people as they left State Fair Thursday night.
Authorities have not given official estimates of the number of people involved in the attacks.
"It looked like they were just going after white guys, white people," said Norb Roffers of Wind Lake in an interview with Newsradio 620 WTMJ. He left the State Fair Entrance near the corner of South 84th Street and West Schlinger Avenue in West Allis.
"They were attacking everybody for no reason whatsoever."
"It was 100% racial," claimed Eric, an Iraq war veteran from St. Francis who says young people beat on his car.
"I had a black couple on my right side, and these black kids were running in between all the cars, and they were pounding on my doors and trying to open up doors on my car, and they didn't do one thing to this black couple that was in this car next to us. They just kept walking right past their car. They were looking in everybody's windshield as they were running by, seeing who was white and who was black. Guarantee it."
Eric, a war veteran, said that the scene he saw Thursday outside State Fair compares to what he saw in combat.
"That rated right up there with it. When I saw the amount of kids coming down the road, all I kept thinking was, 'There's not enough cops to handle this.' There's no way. It would have taken the National Guard to control the number of kids that were coming off the road. They were knocking people off their motorcycles."
There's more coverage at WISN-TV.
I believe this would be a good opportunity to inform people that it is a good idea to arm themselves, within the law in your State of course; just the same, if someone had been armed — this likely would not have happened. I am, quite frankly, shocked that not more bloggers are not writing about this incident. I guess fear and political correctness trump the truth anymore.
I believe this is only the beginning; as our economy begins to sour. Events like this will continue to happen. Arm yourselves; before it is too late.

Update: JSonline now reports: State Patrol called in, youth policy imposed after violence at State Fair
Go give that a read, they are now actually denying that race was even involved! That is how it works, Whites can attack blacks and it is a national crisis. But when Blacks attack whites — nothing to see, move along. How it has been for years and is still that way. That is what you call Liberal Bias. Nothing more, nothing less.
