Skip to comments.Report: 1 in 4 Britons Think Winston Churchill Never Existed
Posted on 02/04/2008 11:00:52 AM PST by atomic conspiracy
One in four Britons don't believe wartime Prime Minister Winston Churchill existed, according to a recent survey. Churchill is compared to Florence Nightingale and Sir Walter Raleigh, seen by many survey respondents as a mythical person, the London Daily Mail reported Monday. The survey, conducted with 3,000 respondents to test their general knowledge, reported other historical figures such as Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi, Cleopatra and the Duke of Wellington were made up for books and films, the Mail reported. The survey, by UKTV Gold, also found that Sherlock Holmes was a real person.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
We don't have anything on the Brits in this area though. Just yesterday I was talking to a very young (19) employee at our place, a National Guardsman and a fairly bright kid in most respects. He did not know whether the Civil War or World War 2 occurred first or whether the Russians were allies or enemies in the latter struggle. He also thought that exhaust from jet planes destroyed the ozone (layer) and that this was the alleged cause of global warming. He had no idea what "ozone" is. He thought it was something like a layer of the atmosphere between the "N" and the "P" zones.
The kicker? His mother is a science teacher in our
yokel local schools.
Wow...I didn't realize Britain had fallen so far, so fast. I wonder how many of these "Britons" that were surveyed were actually born there.
"The kicker? His mother is a science teacher in our yokel local schools."
And it's his mother's fault he's such an idiot.
As far as England goes, the Empire has died - last one leaving can turn out the lights. No wait, someone already did.
It's called "THE 21ST CENTURY DARK AGES"
Winston Churchill - Hoax, or Fiction? LOL...Pitifull that the 20th century's GREATEST person has come to this.
So? 1 in 4 Americans believes in the Global Warming fantasy.
BUT..on the bright side - those 25% ignorant Brits are probably illegal Muslim immigrants from the colonies.
Even I KNOW how Churchill and the brave RAF pilots faced the might of the Nazi in the Battle of Britain alone in 1940... Most of western Europe fell and USA wasn't even in the war yet...
My guess? The government schools are too busy teaching kids that homosexuality is OK and how to respect the Muslim religion...
"The Last Lion" by Manchester. A must read for any Freeper who hasn't . . .
But, in the really important stuff, I bet he could tell you who got kicked off the Survivor Island last week.
Among a sad abundance of other subjects, serious history is not taught in most US schools. Students may be fed a PC pap called history that tries to make some minority participants in history whose role was insignificant co-equal with major players, but little serious history.
That is nothing.
I remember about ten years ago, a good friend of mine showed me a note from a HS kid that he hires once in a while to help out in the yard. The note was atrociously filled with misspelled words and bad language structure explaining why the boy couldn't help out that day.
Then my friend said BOTH of his parents teach at HS and one of them is an English teacher... Very sad
(I feel like I'm gonna cry...)
Just more proof that factual history is not being taught in schools anymore. It's more important to study how to get a rubber on a cucumber or how to be P.C. with Muslim terrorists.....
Maybe 1/4 of Brits are not real Brits (of the Anglo-Saxon variety) but recent immigrants?
If I lived in contemporary Britain, where polygamists are entitled to claim multiple welfare benefits per spouse and where The Three Little Pigs is ruled ineligible for a government award lest it offend Muslims, I'd be inclined to believe Richard the Lionheart, the Duke of Wellington and Sir Winston Churchill never existed, too. — Mark Steyn
'1 in 4 Britons Think Winston Churchill Never Existed '
Yeah, and the Welsh are really irish that can't swim.
"So? 1 in 4 Americans believes in the Global Warming fantasy."
Well, I don't think Al Gore is a real person. He looks like an animatronic robot, one of the early ones.
This is shameful!
And our own public/government schools are marching right in step.
Oh, well, in some ways, FDR was a mythical person.
I don't know whether it's the writer of this article or the surveytakers, but someone needs to tell them that Florence Nightingale and Sir Walter Raleigh were not "mythical" people either, they also really existed.
Is there any chance that this isn't an indication of the Brits' lack of education but instead shows their contempt for idiots with surveys? If someone pestered me into answering it, I might have answered the same way to taunt the survey taker. Either that or eaten his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
My Black videographer then set up a story to ask Black kids who MLK was. 65% did NOT know who Dr. King was.
"Well, I dont think Al Gore is a real person.".....I was under the impression he was a white lawn jockey.
That is just amazing...
Who do think the guy in all the film strips is?
And three of those four can't find England on a world map.
(Which is on a par with most of the rest of the world.)
"So? 1 in 4 Americans believes in the Global Warming fantasy."
Sadly its worse than that. More like 3 out of 4. We also like electing retards to political office.
lol, I suspect you may be at least partially right. Anyone with brains and a life is going to hang up or shut the door in the face of survey takers, so the ones who do end up taking the survey probably don't represent Britons brightest.
Unbelievable, just unbelievable. Britain is dying.

The new Infiniti Q50 will make its European debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month.
First shown at the Detroit Motor Show in January, the Infiniti Q50 will be displayed with four-cylinder engines at Geneva, as the firm bids to increase the appeal of its BMW 3 Series and Audi A4 rival in Europe.
In the US, the Q50 will be offered with two powertrains; a 323bhp 3.7-litre petrol V6 and a 355bhp 3.5-litre petrol V6-electric hybrid, with the choice of rear or four-wheel drive.
However, European buyers will benefit from Infiniti and parent company Nissan's tie-up with Mercedes, who is expected to provide its 1.8-litre petrol engine and 2.1-litre four-cylinder diesel.
The Q50 replaces the Infiniti G Series saloon and features a curvaceous 'double arch' grille and an inverted crescent-shaped kink in the C-pillar.
On the inside, Infiniti promises much improved head and legroom for all passengers, while active noise cancellation, via the Bose sound system, comes as standard.
Of most interest is that the Q50 will be the first car to feature Nissan's new Direct Adaptive Steering technology.
The system is a world first and does without the mechanical link between the steering wheel and the front wheels. Instead, it uses a fly-by-wire system where inputs to the wheel are fed electronically to a motor which moves the steering rack accordingly.
The driver can adjust the feel and weight of the steering to their personal tastes, and the system also includes an auto-steering lane keeping assist function.
Should the electronic system fail there is a back up steering column, which uses a clutch to reconnect the steering column and wheel. The current system is a legal requirement for the time being, but Nissan is hopeful that this rule can be changed in the long term.
The Infiniti Q50 is due to go on sale in the UK in June. It will be shown at Geneva alongside the all-electric Infiniti LE concept car, and Sebastian Vettel's 2013 Formula One car complete with the 2013 livery, which features more prominent Infiniti branding.

As an actor and producer, Velasquez is constantly working on interesting and challenging new projects.
In her new autobiography, "Straight Walk: A Supermodel's Journey to Finding her Truth," Velasquez recalls her triumphant journey from poverty to international acclaim. In this intimate and inspiring memoir, she courageously reveals her personal truth.
As an Artist for Peace, Velasquez is a celebrity advocate for UNESCO. She received the "Women Together" award at the United Nations in 2009 and the Solidarity Award in November 2010.
In 2011 Velásquez successfully helped launch Taya Beauty, an organic line of beauty products, on the Home Shopping Network. Created from the super-botanicals of the rainforest, Taya Beauty skincare and hair care products are grown in environmentally sustainable programs in South American indigenous communities. Taya Beauty is now sold all over the world through HSN, QVC and Shopping Channels. www.tayabeauty.com
Concerned about the living conditions of Latin American indigenous groups like the Wayuu group in Venezuela, Velasquez founded Wayúu Taya Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public and funding ways to improve conditions of Latin American indigenous groups, respecting their culture and belief. She competed on the television show "Celebrity Apprentice" on behalf of her foundation in 2012. www.wayuutaya.org
New Establishment Award – Abigial Spencer
Abigial Spencer, a talented actress, writer and producer on both the big and small screen, Abigail Spencer is quickly making a name for herself in Hollywood.
Spencer had roles in two of summer 2015's most gripping TV dramas. She played 'Gena Brune' in the second season of HBO's, "True Detective;" and continued her starring role as 'Amantha Holden' in season three of the Sundance Channel's Peabody Award winning show "Rectify." It was also recently announced that "Rectify" has been renewed for a fourth season premiering in 2016. Spencer's portrayal of 'Amantha Holden' garnered rave reviews and a Critics Choice Television Award nomination in the category of "Best Supporting Actress in a Drama" in 2013. The show has also been nominated for a Television Critics Association Award in the category of "Outstanding Achievement in Movies, Mini-series and Specials." The series follows a man who must put his life back together after serving 19 years on Georgia's Death Row before DNA evidence calls his conviction into question.
Previous television credits include multi-episode arcs on the USA hit series "Suits," AMC's "Mad Men," Adult Swim's "Children's Hospital" and "NTSF:SVU;" as well as E!'s cult comedy "Burning Love," a scripted comedy-web spoof on the television shows, "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette," among others. Following the success of her 2013 short film she produced & starred in "Here and Now" (which was selected by Ron Howard as the winner of Canon's "Project Imagination" film contest), Spencer is reteaming with Student Oscar winning director Julian Higgins & partners Josh Pence and Justin Allen for the film, "Winter Light"; produced under her Innerlight Films umbrella she co-runs with "Anomolisa" director Duke Johnson. "Winter Light" is a modern-day revisionist Western set against the sweeping backdrop of the snow-covered Montana wilderness. Spencer has also co-written a TV pilot script, "Teach," that is on the coveted 2015 WriteHer list.
Spencer recently wrapped production on the indie drama, "The Sweet Life," starring opposite Chris Messina. She also stars in the indie film, "A Beautiful Now," which premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival in June 2015. The film tells the story of a passionate dancer who finds herself mulling over an extreme act when she reaches a crossroads in her life. Her other big screen credits include: "The Forger;" "Oz, the Great and Powerful;" "This Is Where I Leave You;" "Chasing Mavericks;" "Kilimanjaro;' "The Haunting in Connecticut 2;" "This Means War" and "Cowboys and Aliens." Spencer spent many summers studying under mentor, Ann Reinking, at the Broadway Theatre Project. She was later accepted into Carnegie Mellon University.
Rising Star Award – Ashley Rickards
Ashley Rickards currently stars as the lead character in MTV's popular scripted comedy-drama Awkward. She portrays 'Jenna', a teenager struggling with new found infamy while also managing the drama, relationships, and up and downs of high school life.

She won a People's Choice Awards in 2013 along with the cast for Choice Cable Comedy Series and scored another People's Choice Award nomination in 2014.
In addition Rickards was most recently seen starring alongside Jaime Pressly and Marlon Wayons in A Haunted House 2. She was previously seen in the film Fly Away as an autistic teen raised by a single mother. Rickards will next be seen starring in the IFC Midnight film, At The Devil's Door, a suspense thriller from director Nicholas McCarthy.

I am writing to endorse Gloria Warden's write-in candidacy for the offices of Town Clerk and Treasurer for the Town of Ferrisburgh.
Gloria began her career in town government more than 20 years ago, when she was hired in 1988 to do the bookkeeping/treasurer's work for Charlotte when the town clerk was appointed to the Vermont Legislature to fill the remainder of her deceased husband's term of office. Gloria has been doing fantastic work for the town ever since.
Hello, Brandon voters,
Kudos to UD-3 voters for the grand turnout last week. As a Cornwall voter, I was proud to be among the majority. Above all, I was impressed by the vigorous civic debate.
If you're a Middlebury resident, when you get your Australian ballot on Tuesday, March 4, vote "Yes" on Article 6.
Here's why:
• It is the best plan Middlebury has seen in 20-plus years of trying to resolve this issue. For 2 cents on the tax rate, the town would get a $7.5 million value. From a taxpayers' perspective, that's money well spent on a town building we all know needs significant renovation.
BRISTOL — Police in Bristol are on the lookout for a car stolen in the village enter on Wednesday evening.
On Feb. 26, at 6:54 p.m. Bristol police received a complaint that some males had stolen alcohol from Champlain Farms. Police said that while they were investigating, one of the males thought to be involved in the theft of the alcohol escaped arrest by fleeing in a vehicle he stole from behind Cubbers restaurant.
Every year on or around the first Tuesday in March Vermonters gather with their neighbors to weigh in on town, school and highway budgets and to express their views on matters of local interest. The annual town meeting, which has been taking place for more than 250 years in many towns, is also a time for townspeople to re-establish relationships with those whom they see at the store or school drop-off.
The Addison Independent has interviewed the eight candidates who are seeking spots on the Middlebury Board of Selectmen. There are two candidates for a one-year term on the board (Dean George and Heather Sealey), and six candidates for two three-year seats (Laura Asermily, Craig Bingham, Brian Carpenter, Ted Davis, John Freidin and Eric Murray).

fair deal IMO. both young talent who haven't reached their potential yet. we needed pitching more. and this guy can be a starter in the future.
OK i just read this entire thread and here are my thoughts. First I just want to say that while I am familiar with a lot of the names of the prospects, I do not have a grasp on exactly how good they...
Hey does anyone know if other teams send scouts to these camps? or if they're even allowed to? If so have any been spotted at the leafs camp watching our spects?
thats funny, thats exactly what i was just thinking. Same reason he keeps saying he loives reimer and would be fine starting the season with him.
i wonder who this mysterious #1 C is? any speculation on it?
even if Duchene was dealt (which he wont be, it'll be stastny), TOR wouldn't even be in the running. It would be a deal that makes sense such as Duchene to ANA for Bobby Ryan and a pick, ANA wants a...
ya to the gardner deal, he;s a stud and i hate Halak with every fibre of my being, but maybe thats just me. I mean Halak may be a possability but no where close to Gardner as an asking price. If...
I was thinkin Getzlaf, Ryan, Perry, Evander Kane, Stastny, Ryan Miller, Jacob Markstrom, Shea Weber, Thornton, Marleau, Mike Green, ....... who else?
I watched a 10 minute video of the Leafs VP Dave Poulin, one of the things he said is that if we knew some of the names that had been talked about in trade talk, it would blow our minds, guys you...
rumor has them wanting Coutourier from philly in any Ryan deal
Maybe they get a C back in the bobby ryan deal
No Offence Optimize but, EEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
Luongo for Connolly + Percy + 2nd rnd pk in 2014 + 3rd rnd pk in 2013
Getzlaf for Bozak + Kulemin or McArthur + Colborne + 1st rnd pk in 2014 + 4th rnd pk in 2013
Vancouver gets the C depth...
oops sorry other than VanRemsdyk + Super McClemment instead of Schenn + Crabb
so if all the rumblings are right and we're not in on Parise or Suter, and we aren't front runners for Nash or Bobby Ryan trades, and Derek Roy has already been dealt.......then what other options...
oh eah forgot to mention McArthur +1st and 2nd rnd pk in 2014 for evander kane
sounds delicious!
hearing rumors of leafs close to signing marty B and bringing in Sam Gagne with a sign and trade.............granted that im hearing it from the voices in my head, but they have been right a time or...
I feel a big unexpected shock coming in the next couple hours
Is he trying to remake LeBron James's hype from the whole "The Decision"?
i bet he ends up in EDM
All you guys hear about the Marty Brodeur situation? if the devils dont sign him by the end of the day he'll be a UFA tomorrow at noon.
Anyone think BB explores that option instead of giving up...
Colborne, Kulemin, and a 2nd or 3rd rounder for E. Kane
plus I just remembered the lines off communication between the Leafs and Jets have already been active with the Moster trade........Hmmmmmmm.....

BBC Review
The next Bob Marley? Try the new Finlay Quaye.
Angus Taylor 2008
With his name, dreadlocks, and easily comprehendible patois, Natty has been hailed by the mainstream press as an up-and-coming reggae artist, even drawing hyperbolic comparisons with Bob. It's a categorisation that seems to cause him discomfort – although not enough to avoid signing up for Boss Sounds, the UK's biggest reggae festival, and has sparked debate as to whether his eclectic blend of styles is tribute or dilution.
Debut album, Man Like I, proves it to be neither. If you've even a passing interest in reggae there is little on offer from this disc. Positioned slightly to the left of the jolly mockney hockeysticks of Lily and Kate, Natty's songs are a more rhythmic, culturally diverse take on the great British tradition of confessional summer music.
Natty clearly knows his way around a studio, having got his breaks (and some free session time, no doubt) as an engineer. He also understands that the finest records fuse the sounds of the country and city. Badman's rapid-fire MC delivery rides jazzy guitar chords and furious hand drums. July has a folksy harmonica, a clear Jamaican afterbeat and words conceived in the throws of young love.
It's easy to sneer at guileless lyrical indiscretions like Coloured Souls' "sometimes we jump the trainfare to get to where we're going" (Peter Tosh must be shaking in his boots) and the "hoodies" "you get me's" and "ends" straight from "yoof speak" central casting – but these also have a certain exuberant charm. What limits Natty's appeal is an inability to laugh at himself: the very best pop has a universal sense of fun - yet even his non-political songs take themselves so seriously that they betray his tender years.
The more seasoned listener wanting to hear Rasta concerns over intelligent pop should check Winston McAnuff's peerless 2006 album Paris Rockin'. If, however, you're just after some vaguely rootsy chillout music – and don't care much for reggae or its history – Natty's got the tunes and the summer vibes to make you smile. The next Bob Marley? Try the new Finlay Quaye.

What a great Dive Against Debris / lake clean up. On September 21st, 2013 we had 18 divers helping clean up Vista Point at Lake Pleasant, AZ.

User Profile
I am a PADI Master instructor who is passionate about our oceans and our waters. I took my first dive in the Virgin Islands in the mid 1980's. At the time I knew I wanted to do something in my life that related to the oceans. Years later I decided that the degree I had hoped to pursue, Marine Biology, was just not going to be possible. In 2005 I found that by becoming a PADI Divemaster and later a Scuba Instructor I was able to share my passion for the ocean with new divers and with my friends and family.
A few years back my wife, who is a Master SCUBA Diver and a PADI Divemaster, found that she loves sea turtles and began to follow all the issue related to turtles protection, naturally I followed.
Through my role as a Scuba Instructor I hope to continue to educate new divers, certifed divers and non-divers alike about the perils our oceans are in, and how we can each do our part to help. I have several children and hope that all our efforts will allow their childrens children to benefit from our oceans and to see the beauty below the surface of the water.

Someone shot out the back window of the deputy's patrol car while the female deputy was driving in Prunedale, Monterey County Sheriff Scott Miller said.
The deputy was driving on Meridian Road near Valley Road at 4:45 p.m. when the shooting happened. A shard of glass from the shattered window flew forward and cut the deputy in the back of her neck.
Law enforcement officers set up a perimeter and blocked off streets in an attempt to find the shooter.

|Check-in before
What really made this house great was the outside area; great swimming pool and enough space around with nice seats. Also de patio was a great spot for dinner and lunch.
The interior was not great; no airco of fan (so HOT), bad kitchen equipment (old or simply missed) and not quite clean.
Staff of Interhome gave us good support.
Place is quiet and nice. It is superior place to spend some days with dog since there is an open space in front of cottage.
There are two super markets down the hill(mountain?) which is just enough to
have everything you need.
One thing you need to be careful is that this entitiy does not have WIFI connection. If you really want to connect to internet, you need to prepare by yourself.
Apartment was lovely - clean and well-stocked. Beds were comfortable and main bedroom was roomy. Restaurants and hiking trails close by.
Great place to stay during Alp days in Swiss. Charming apartment in a wonderful village with all comfort and home tools. Besides, Patricia the owner is really helpful and make you feel like home. I would recommend this apartment to any traveller.
This apartment is very well designed and the owner was very friendly. We spend a very good time in Brugge. I will recommend this apartment. But we had a problem with Wimdu because they gave us a wrong telephone and address and we couldn´t contact with the owner and Windu. Finally we could contact with Interhom and they gave me the right telephone and address. It was a very stressful situation.
We stayed in the appartment during Christmas.The appartment itself is fabulous and located in a wonderful, but quite village. All rooms, big kitchen, furniture and facilities were well taken care of. A practical space for a family, like ours with two young children. Forests for walking is near. Shops and cities are further away. A good option is to drive to the closest train station to catch one of the trains that take you through the whole country, with its nice towns and to Luxemburg city for just 4euro a day, children under 12 yrs travel free. Food and wine in Luxemburg are nice, so we enjoyed Christmas very much.
The place was very clean and big. It had a nice garden that we could use whenever we wanted, which is great if you go with kids. The only problem was that it said the beach was 400m away, which is true but it was 400m of steps, which is a problem when you are coming back and have to go up (with kids, baby and a lot of stuff).
Apart from that, everything was great.
Nice apartment as advertised
Very nice accommodation
Fantastic views - just like in the pictures.
Would go back anytime!

Not to mention his many classic skits on SNL (The Continental!), where his dancing and comedic skills finally gained the huge audience they deserve. This film is no exception; it's light on the hoofing but heavy on the laughs, mainly from Walken. The script has some fine moments as do the other actors, but 5AD is all Walken's, and he's fully up to the task. He easily controls every single scene he's in; you can't take your eyes off him---the sign of a true star---and he delivers the laughs here by milking every line for all it's worth with his trademark off-beat pauses. The guy knows how to use his eyes and voice to focus our thoughts exactly where he wants them, then bang! Yet another crisp bit of humor.
He makes a perfect con man here; Nat is charmingly duplicitous, and his never-ending schemes are rarely mean or uncouth...just slippery as an eel. He sucks everybody into his weird wake, and his son Ritchie has trouble holding the many grudges he has every right to. Walken makes Nat so likable that you end up cheering him on and cracking up every time he pulls another fast one. The only question for me here is why this took two years to come out on dvd, and got such limited release in theaters.Read more ›
Directed by Nigel Cole, who also helmed the wonderful "Calendar Girls" (2003), this picture has been referred by some as a road movie, which may be the case. Walken stars as Nat Parker, a good-natured and hearted drifter, con artist, scam operator - he likes everything for free, provided he can get away with it --, who learns that he has a brain tumor and is about to die. He contacts Ritchie Flynn (Alessandro Nivola), his only son, and asks him to take him to New Mexico for a new, free treatment. Problem is, Ritchie has problems of his own, including an imminent divorce from his wife Maggie (Amanda Peet), and being fired from his job as a Health Inspector. Needless to say, he was also recently released from jail. As you can imagine, growing up with Nat, he inherited some of his "talents." Ritchie accepts against his will, and they travel by car from New Jersey to New Mexico, making stops in Pennsylvania, Indiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas. Along the way, as expected, many things happen - some hilarious --, which make Ritchie learn more about his father. Along the way, too, they visit Dolores Jones (the very sexy Sharon Stone), who happened to be Ritchie's baby-sitter, and with whom Ritchie had a crush as a kid. This is pure gold.
"$5 a Day" feels fresh and it makes you feel good.Read more ›
Christopher Walken, who has the reputation for being the "scariest man in the movies", has really taken the last decade to smooth out that resumé with fun quirky comedies. And it's in this field of endeavor that he really shines.
The saying is that any actor can do drama, but only a select few can do comedy - the man has proven he can do both. And, as it happens, he executes both in this excellent indie film. Proving in my mind, and without a doubt, that he's one of the finest actors to have graced the silver screen.
Walken delivers a sublime performance as Nat Parker, a small-time grifter out to finish the game with a winning hand while simultaneously attempting to repair the rift between himself and his estranged son.
And in a small but singularly delicious role, Sharon Stone portrays Dolores, a sun-hued seductress and lifelong friend who helps him settle the score with an old nemesis.
I'm a huge fan of road trip flicks - since that confined crucible often creates the most endearing characters seen in films. If you enjoyed "Little Miss Sunshine" or "Roadside Prophets" you won't be disappointed with this indie.

I am working on a plugin in which I want to publish content using same plugin but on different blogs. What is all needed is entering other blog's details and send the content to the other blog. This would be done so that the admin wouldn't have to install the plugin on another blog unless they wanted to.
Suppose my plugin is activated in blogA and somewhere in admin of blogA I enter the credentials of blogB and publish the content from blogA into blogB.
Seems funny.. but is it possible in wordpress?
thanks in advance.

Young certified as winner in mayoral election, unseating incumbent Waddell
Philadelphia elects first African-American mayor
By JIM PRINCE and DEBBIE MYERS
, The Neshoba Democrat
Wednesday, May 20, 2009 1:22 PM
James A. Young defeated incumbent Mayor Rayburn Waddell, 1,021-975, certified results from Tuesday's Democrat primary runoff election show.
Forty-four affidavit ballots were examined by the Democrat Executive Committee Wednesday starting at about 5 p.m., and only 15 were accepted.
Young, a former four-term county supervisor, Pentecostal minister and paramedic who led the county ambulance service for nearly two decades, unseated Waddell to become Philadelphia's first African-American mayor Tuesday with 51.15 percent of the vote.
Young, who campaigned for change in city government, declared Tuesday night as he claimed the win that his election is the beginning of a new era.
Young outpolled Waddell 218 to 190 votes in Ward 3, and 519 to 60 votes in Ward 4. Waddell won Ward 1 with 381 votes to Young's 136 and Ward 2 with 344 votes to Young's 148.
A small crowd of Young volunteers and supporters gathered at the Neshoba County Courthouse for the counting of th affidavit ballots that took about an hour.
Some of the ballots were rejected because of, among other things, voters were not registered at all, were registered but in the county or were registered at an address outside the ward in which they were casting their ballot.
On election night, shortly after the final box was counted about 8 p.m., Young said he was "just overwhelmed" by the outpouring of support he received during the campaign.
"A lot of hard work went into it to break the barriers that we've broken through this race - it's just unbelievable," Young said outside the law offices of Edward A. Williamson on Church Avenue where supporters had gathered.
"Philadelphia I think has finally begun to move into the age where we need to - not just because I am a black man, but I have served this community well. I've been honorable. And I will continue to do that.
"And I want to say to everybody, as I said during my campaign, I want to do what's right. I want to prove that the office of mayor can be done with some integrity and with righteousness and fairness for everyone in this city - red, yellow, black or white. This is the bottom line. This is the beginning of a new era in Philadelphia, Miss., and everybody is going to see that change has come to Philadelphia, Miss."
Thirty-nine percent of the city's 5,038 registered voters, or 1,990 people, cast ballots in Tuesday's second Democrat Primary.
Thirty-five percent voted in the first Democrat Primary on May 5 when Waddell, who was seeking a fourth term, outpolled Young by only 16 votes.
Young is unopposed in the general election on June 2.
Young called for change in city government during his campaign and cited his more than 30 years of experience in city and county affairs.
He pointed out his years of experience in health care in the community, noting that he was one of the first EMTs here and later became one of the first EMT-Paramedics.
Todd Mosley, his campaign organizer, said Young's election changed history.
"A few committed and positive voices can change history today. Philadelphia, Miss. won tonight. We have once and for all proven that 1964 is over. Only one candidate won this election but no one lost - an entire community won," Mosley said.
Young has 16 years of experience as District 5 supervisor and over 12 years on the Board of Directors for East Central Planning and Development District.
Most, if not all, grants for city and county governments are written through the planning district, he said during the campaign.
He called for a different approach to economic development and said as mayor, he would support the hospital and work with the Board of Supervisors to bring quality healthcare to the city and county. He cited a need for citizens and the police to work together to prevent and solve crimes.
Young said some areas of the city needed to be revitalized. He pledged to create and maintain good relationships with city employees and promised open and honest leadership.
Young and his wife, Sheryl, have one daughter, Shanda. He has served as the pastor of Calvary Apostolic Church in Louisville for 16 years.
Incumbent Alderman-at-Large Janice Payne, the Democrat nominee, will face Independent Judy Joyner Caverhill in the general election while Cecil Nichols, the Democrat nominee for Ward 4 alderman, will meet Mary D. Griffin, an Independent.
Incumbent aldermen Joe Tullos, of Ward 1; Roy White, of Ward 2; and Ronnie Jenkins, of Ward 3, do not face opposition in the general election.
Winners will take office on July 6.

100% Whole Wheat Sour Cream Biscuits
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 18 mins
Tender, flaky sour cream biscuits like Mama never made!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 cups 100% whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons gluten
- 2 1⁄4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt (or regular)
- 1⁄4 cup cold butter, cut in pats
- 1⁄2 cup cold milk
- 1⁄2 cup sour cream
- Put oven rack just below the middle so the biscuits will bake in the middle of the oven. This will prevent the bottoms being overdone, and will produce a nice crust on the top and a tender middle.
- Preheat oven to 400°F Bake 18 minutes, or until the biscuit is firm with just a little "give" when lightly pressed on top, and are golden brown. The time will vary slightly depending on the size of your biscuits.
- In a medium bowl, stir together flour, gluten, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Using a pastry blender, cut cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture; set aside. (If you don't have a pastry blender, use two table knives and keep cutting across the mixture. It takes a little longer, but works as well.).
- In a small bowl, stir together milk and sour cream until mixture is fairly smooth. Add the milk mixture all at once to the flour mixture in the medium bowl. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir just until the dough sticks together.
- Turn dough onto a lightly-floured surface. Gently knead 10-12 times, or just until the dough holds together.
- Pat dough to 1/2 thickness, forming a square or rectangle. Cut dough into squares or rectangles. If too large, cut squares across corner-to-corner into diamonds. OR: roll dough with a floured rolling pin to 1/2-inch thickness and cut biscuits with a floured 3-inch biscuits cutter. Push the cutter straight down and twist to cut the dough without tearing it. Push the cut biscuits out of the cutter.
- Put the cut biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet, leaving about a 1-inch space on all sides between biscuits so the sides will get "crusty" like the tops.
- Bake for 18 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm.

These biscuits were delicious! It is a nice change from the regular white biscuits. I will definitely be making these again.
I just pulled my first batch of these out of the oven and I agree--they are amazing. I used King Arthur White Whole Wheat flour.
WOW! I had stopped making biscuits because I never found a good enough 100% whole wheat recipe - but these were terrific! Like a "real" biscuit! They rose so tall, had a great flaky texture, and tasted great! I followed the recipe, using "white" whole wheat flour and "light" sour cream, and I did need a bit of extra milk. I am thrilled to have this recipe!

The drama surrounding Rick Warren's forthcoming invocation at President-elect Barack Obama's inaugural ceremony just won't subside. After being maligned by both gay-rights groups and evangelicals for accepting Obama's invitation, the Saddleback Church pastor is now being grilled on whether he'll offer his prayer in the name of Jesus.
"I'm a Christian pastor so I will pray the only kind of prayer I know how to pray," Warren stated last week in a written response. "Prayers are not to be sermons, speeches, position statements nor political posturing. They are humble, personal appeals to God."
At George W. Bush's inauguration, both Franklin Graham and Kirbyjon Caldwell concluded their prayers in Jesus' name—including Caldwell's delivery "in the name that's above all other names, Jesus the Christ"—which drew harsh criticism and led to renowned atheist Michael Newdow claiming in a lawsuit the utterance was an "unconstitutional endorsement of religion." In 2005, Caldwell again prayed in Jesus' name but added the line, "respecting persons of all faiths."
When asked about Warren's situation, Graham said: "For a Christian, especially for an evangelical pastor, the Bible teaches us that we are to pray in the name of Jesus Christ. How can a minister pray any other way? If you don't want someone to pray in Jesus' name, don't invite an evangelical minister."
Just how much has American culture changed that this has become an issue? When Richard Nixon was sworn in as president in 1969, Billy Graham virtually offered an invitation to salvation, concluding his prayer "in the Name of the Prince of Peace who shed His blood on the Cross that men might have eternal life." [AP, 12/30/08]
