Rivet allows you to access your digital life on your Xbox 360 and PS3.
!!! 21 Jul 2011 - Rivet has been discontinued !!!
!!! http://thelittleappfactory.com/news/ !!!
Browse, play, and view all of your pictures, movies, and video through the Xbox 360 and PS3's media player right in your living room.
Rivet will automatically load and give you full access to your iTunes music, iPhoto photographs, Aperture photographs, and any video or picture folder that you wish to share.
Required OS: 10.5
Tags: aperture , iphoto , ps3 , itunes , audio , video , media , streaming , xbox360 , xbox360 , streaming , media , video , audio , itunes , ps3 , iphoto , aperture

For PS3 users, the open-source, free PS3 Media Server is perfectly adequate.
Brilliant app, much better than Connect360.
@nhesson : uhm⦠what do I care about "eye candy" in an application like this? The only thing it should do is to sit nicely and quietly in the background and stream my media to my 360. Both Rivet & Connect360 do this.
But: Rivet's feature to repliacte the folder structure whereas Connect360 doesn't (until today; of course it MIGHT be updated someday to do so as well) is a much more important to me than "eye candy" (I like Rivet's interface and appearance as a menu dock item anyway)
It's all about priorities. So until Connect360 gets an update to support folder structures I'd prefer Rivet anytime.
That was some impressive, hassle-free buying. The demo worked since second 1, then the survey discount and the one-step transaction. I've bought a handful of apps but I had never seen everything work so well.
Rivet was just announced on April 16th, 2008.
I had bought Connect360 earlier, but this already beats it hands down. Rivet has a couple of essential features Connect360 is missing, like replication of the folder structures on your Mac, automatic media updating and most important of all you can choose multiple source folders for your media.

…What we've been waiting for: the new iPhone 5 iPhone 4S
By guest blogger Jessica Ridgeway
Jessica is a journalism major at the University of Oregon. She is finishing her final year focusing in magazine journalism with a minor in communications. She spends her free time writing or hanging out with friends. College has introduced her to a new found love for sports (Go Ducks!) and the French language.
Apple Inc. has done it again – they've released a brand-new Apple product that surpasses the last. This October the iPhone 4S, formerly rumored to be the "iPhone 5," is available for technology-lovers everywhere.
The new iPhone 4S doesn't physically differ from its predecessor, the iPhone 4. It's the same weight and shape with all of the same functional buttons. However, it's the phone's capabilities that make it shine.
First there is the phone's new dual-core A5 chip – which is the same processor found in the iPad 2. It works twice as fast, opening Apps and Safari web pages faster than ever. The phone also runs on the new iOS 5 operating system; it includes 200 new features that the iPhone 4 lacks.
All of the main programs on the iPhone – Music, Contacts, Photos, Mail (to name a few) – all run under iCloud on the new iPhone 4S. iCloud wirelessly stores and transfers your files, photos, and pretty much everything else to your other devices. So if you take photos with your iPhone 4S, they will automatically appear in iPhoto on your Macbook Pro and iPad, for example.
The camera of the Phone 4S completely tops the iPhone 4's. This camera is 8 megapixels and has all-new optics for better pictures. Apple has increased the aperture, which allows more light into the photo, and has added a fifth lens for a sharper and more detailed image. It also has face-detection programming, allowing the camera to focus and expose the image accordingly. For the iPhone videographers, the new phone records at 1080p and at 30 frames per second. There is also a stabilizer, keeping the videos from looking like you're experiencing an earthquake.
Lastly, the new iPhone 4S includes a new program called "Siri." The Apple website calls it the "amazing assistant." Siri listens to voice commands and works with the phone. You can set reminders, send text messages, search for directions, and so much more using only your voice. Aside from all of the many advancements the iPhone 4S has, it's Siri that sets this smart phone apart from all of its competitors.
As a new iPhone 4 user (I've had mine for almost two months now) I'm mildly impressed. I'm intrigued, of course, but not enough to swap phones. I use my iPhone for three things: phone calls, text messages, and e-mail. I feel that the more features added to phones will eventually cause people to avoid personal communication all together. I have also been told that "Siri" is available as a free App on the iTunes store – but I don't think I would ever use it. I find it a little strange to talk to my phone like it's my robot assistant.
Overall, I congratulate Apple on another successful release. I have no doubt in my mind that the elusive "iPhone 5" will make an appearance soon.

Art needed for local documentary
Published: Sunday, February 10, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, February 10, 2013 at 12:05 a.m.
The Houma Regional Arts Council is seeking local artists to help showcase south Louisiana in "Art of the Bayou," a new documentary.
"When we say 'artist' we're looking for people in all disciplines who can show environmental and societal issues of our area," said Andrea Dupree special-projects coordinator.
"Art of the Bayou," a production of the Regional Arts Council, is supported by an Art Works grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, a Community Partnership grant from the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation and the Terrebonne Parish Consolidated Government's Terrebonne Parish Tourism Recovery Event Sponsorship Program, which is administered through the Houma Area Convention and Visitor's Bureau.
Currently in production, "Art of the Bayou" is presented via short videos that connect creative interpretations of South Louisiana to interviews with locals about the region. There will also be short video profiles of artists and arts organizations in the Arts Council's service region which includes Terrebonne, Lafourche, St. James, St. John the Baptist, St. Charles and Assumption parishes.
"Our goal is to give the rest of the world another reason to protect and visit our region," Dupree said.
The project is "experimental," meaning it will "document real life but take a poetic approach by utilizing fiction and interdisciplinary art, and not following a typical narrative structure," Dupree said, adding that all pieces should explore the environmental and societal issues encountered by local residents.
Proposals will be accepted from artists working in dance, folklife, literature, media, music, theater/performance arts, visual arts and traditional crafts.
Multidisciplinary contributions are welcome.
Applications and guidelines are available at artofthebayou.com.
The deadline to apply is March 1.
For information e-mail email@example.com or call 873-6367.

Tuesday's letters: Sequestration
Published: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, March 11, 2013 at 5:16 p.m.
To the editor: The disaster of sequestration was supposed to hit March 1. You couldnt tell it from the stock market or the fact that the majority of the people were not especially concerned.
This may have something to do with the fact that when all the screaming about draconian cuts was cleared away, it was seen that the government will actually have more money to spend in the coming year than it did last year. Thats right all that was on the table was less of an increase. If that means 750,000 lost jobs, crippled airline service and an eviscerated military, then the government is even more incompetent than its severest conservative critics have claimed.
An alternative explanation is that the Obama administration is dishonestly trying to defend the presidents runaway spending binge by predicting disaster and then making disaster happen by stupid choices.
Candler A. Willis
Some bad tools
To the editor: On March 1, John Fogle wrote again. I am a progressive, and I believe that the progressives owe an apology not just to the GOP but to all of the USA. Dont get ahead of me because my reasoning is somewhat different.
After 9/11, George W. Bush started taking away some of our rights, using surveillance, the use of torture, the holding of prisoners indefinitely without rights and rendition. Lets call these actions presidential tools.
On July 13, 2007, PBS Bill Moyers Journal aired The Impeachment of a President. The two guests were Howard Fine, a conservative, constitutional scholar and writer of the Articles of Impeachment against Bill Clinton, and John Nichols, a writer for the Nation Magazine.
In this discussion, the two men urged the impeachment of Bush because he brought bad tools into the presidential toolbox, not because he was a bad man. The impeachment would have removed those bad tools. Why is that so critical? Those tools, if not removed, will be used by following presidents and probably even expanded.
They were so right. Barack Obama has done just that. Now we violate airspace and kill with drones. We should all apologize for these bad tools.

OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- An upbeat Jim Harbaugh teased the media after Saturday's joint practices between his 49ers and the host Baltimore Ravens. It was a "sad day," he figured, for those looking to report on fights.
Indeed, no brawls erupted on the field, nor elsewhere in the Ravens facility that the clubs are sharing through Monday.
"It's amazing how respectful they were, having played a game Thursday and to come out here two days later against each other," said Jack Harbaugh, the family patriarch who watched Jim's 49ers face off once again against older brother Jim's Ravens.
No injuries occurred, either, although the 49ers did announce before practice they've lost Chuck Jacobs, a dark horse candidate at receiver, to a season-ending knee injury from Thursday's 23-3 exhibition-opening loss.
The 49ers practiced without eight would-be starters, including right guard Alex Boone, who remains in a contract holdout.
"Their tongues are dragging a little bit, but it was a good day for both teams," Jim Harbaugh said.
One of the hardest working (and catch-happy) players was 49ers wideout Anquan Boldin, who returned to the Ravens facility for the first time since being traded in March 2013.
The sight of more 49ers-Ravens action was somewhat surreal. Here, on three practice fields, were teams that faced off only 18 months ago for the Super Bowl XLVII trophy that's now on display in the Ravens' decadent lobby.
They also played only two days earlier in a lopsided exhibition, setting up what John Harbaugh called "unchartered water" with their postgame joint practices.
John Harbaugh chastised the media prior to Saturday's afternoon session, demanding "a little self-check" in what they report.
No fights didn't mean no flare-ups. The 49ers' Will Tukuafu, Aaron Lynch and Quinton Patton each had an incident where they exchanged words with a Ravens opponent after a play ended.
"The had great intent and great practice," Jack Harbaugh said. "To go about it so respectful of each other, it speaks highly of the players and the teams."
While Jim Harbaugh oversaw the 49ers offense against the Ravens defense on one field, John Harbaugh did the same on the neighboring field with the vice versa units. The brothers did stand side-by-side during some special-teams drills, with Jim in his typical attire (black sweatshirt, khaki pants, black cleats) and John in active wear (grey T-shirt, black shorts, black sneakers).
John Harbaugh called Boldin's 2013 departure "very painful" and sarcastically said he "still blames" general manager Ozzie Newsome for the financially driven trade. "We tried like crazy to keep Anquan but we were fighting against a number," Harbaugh said of Boldin's $6 million salary.
Denver (1-0) at 49ers (0-1), 1 p.m. KPIX

1/9/03 Providence OWNED Boston last night. Get used to it
So after a full day in the studio, where I re-recorded a song called "Mainstream" for the Non-Prophets album, I made a pitstop at the pizza shop on my way home. Phone call...Mike Cirelli.
"Hey Frank...we're going down to the Boston Cantab for Jared's feature. Come meet us at the house."
I considered skipping out on this event because my body and brain are both equally fried due to the European tour, holiday season, moving out of my apt, recording "HOPE", rehearsing for the tour, preparing to release Reverse Discourse and set up shop at this site. But the company was strong...and even though the man is old the night was young. So I trooped.
Upon entering the Cantab, Mike and I noticed that there were two slots open in the slam list. He wrote both of our names down.
The open mic at the Cantab was all of two hours long. That is NOT cool. Listening to open mic poets for 2 hours in one evening is the kind of dues I am not interested in paying anymore. Of course there were some shining moments, such as Craig Nelson's poem about working the graveyard shift: "My job is to stay conscious. I am the guy who calls another guy if ANYTHING happens. I am AWESOME at computer solitaire."
There was a short break directly after the slam and then my roomate and long time friend, Jared Paul, took to the stage with props in one hand and the crowd in the other. The Manic Expressive Agenda was in full effect, and the energy levels rose considerably. Shadowboxing, beatboxing, soapboxing.
A would-be heckler who stood by the door was successfully deterred by Jared subtely warning him, "You're not going to be the heckler. You don't want to be that guy."
Very entertanining feature. Everyone in the house was pleased. It ended around 11 o'clock, which is about when we all wanted to leave. We considered skipping out on the slam. But we stayed. and I won. yay. it was cool. I slammed with "Cure" for the first time and it got me the best score of the night.
We got home around 2:30 AM.
It was the best night I have had in a long time. And Meeting St Cafe wasn't even involved.
*yeah yea...I know it's in Cambridge.

Practice PCCN Exam Questions
Constructed according to the PCCN Test Plan, this booklet contains 120 questions with rationales. Synergy items across the age spectrum are integrated. Test plan, Synergy Model information and exam bibliography are also provided.

Last weekend I went home. Home for me is with my husband in Florida but it's also Southern California, "the O.C."
The occasion was my niece Jennifer's wedding. She's the first one in our family to graduate college. She's beautiful, inside and out, and smart - a high school guidance counselor for at-risk teens. Her new husband, Marc, is a rookie firefighter.
The outdoor wedding took place in San Juan Capistrano. It had a Baja, Mexico theme. My mom and dad live in Baja.

Aiken, SC--Hard to believe but the college baseball season is just two weeks away and a lot of eyes will once again be on the Pacers of USC Aiken. For a couple of reasons really. First, they were somehow denied a tournament bid a season ago, and they have one loaded pitching staff.
Head coach Kenny Thomas may be smiling a little more then usual as they are just about set to play the games for real. Three starters back, two closers back and an all american catcher in josh miller. It has all the potential for a great team. But there's that dreaded "p" word.
"It's a good team that has a lot of potential" said Kenny Thomas "I said the other day the big thing this team has got to get is that "P" word off of them. Instead of potentially being a very good team, we have to make sure to get that "p" word off of us."
"I mean we're trying to keep it cool and collective and we're trying not to focus on revenge, but I mean it's really fired us up." added Derek Beasley
These guys admit being left out of the tournament a year ago is serving motivation this year. But also know they still have to come out and play every single day in one of the toughest conferences in the nation.

The Central Christian College soccer teams came up short against Southwestern College Tuesday night, with the Tiger women falling 3-0 and the men tying the Moundbuilders 0-0.
The Lady Tigers fought hard against the No. 5 team in the KCAC, holding the Moundbuilders scoreless for most of the first half. SWC's lone first half goal came at the 10:17 mark of the game off of the foot of Kaci Hutchinson.
Southwestern wouldn't score again until the 63rd minute, when Katie Frank managed to find the back of the Central net for a goal. Frank then set up Leslie Pasarell for the third SWC goal five minutes later.
Central Christian took 10 total shots, with six coming on goal in the loss. Krystina Powell and Siarra Quintana led the Tigers with two shots, each. Southwestern took 23 total shots, with only six coming on CCC goalkeeper Twila Smedley, who made three saves.
Neither Southwestern nor Central Christian could find the back of the net in the men's game, despite a few opportunities on both sides. Central took 12 total shots, with two coming on goal, while SWC had 21 total shots, six on goal.
Josh Black and Ray Anderson had the shots on goal for the Tigers, while goalie Alex Akrawi had the shutout, making all six saves for CCC.
The Tiger men see their record move to 1-7-1, while the women fall to 2-9.
Both teams have a full week to rest, as their next matches aren't until Oct. 9 at York College.
The next home game for either team is Oct. 12, as they host Waldorf College for Central Christian College's homecoming.

The Truth About Electric Lift Trucks: Environmental and Economic Benefits
It is true that electric lift trucks are not suitable for every application. Throughout the past decade, however, there have been a number of changes in the lift truck industry and the material handling work environment that have been beneficial for the electric lift truck and advanced its opportunities. The purpose of this white paper is to review those changes and the impact they might have in considering the use of electric lift trucks today.
Electric lift trucks are environmentally friendly as they are reliant on batteries and produce no exhaust emissions. This improves air quality for employees and customers. Plus, there is no possibility of damage to your work product from engine exhaust, which can occur when using Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) trucks. With these qualities, as well as their use of cushion tires, electric trucks are very well suited for indoor use in warehouse applications.
Considering the fact that they have fewer moving parts and no engine or exhaust noise, electric lift trucks produce one quarter of the noise of ICE lift trucks. The lower noise level and lower vibration levels also help to reduce operator fatigue, which may help improve productivity and safety. Electric lift trucks offer considerable cost advantages over the life of the unit and can perform as well as ICE lift trucks in many cases. New battery types and charger technologies can eliminate the need for battery replacement, thereby minimizing storage space requirements in most multishift applications while providing significant advantages for the environment and workers' health and safety.

GM Foods: Potential Public Consultation and Participation Mechanisms
Gary E. Marchant
Arizona State University - College of Law
Andrew Askland
Arizona State University (ASU) - Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law
Jurimetrics, Vol. 44, p. 99, 2003
One direct mechanism for improving public confidence in genetically modified foods may be to provide a greater role for the public in making policy decisions about such products. There are compelling normative and practical reasons for involving the public in such decisions. Yet, effective and meaningful public participation is made difficult by several factors, most importantly the lack of knowledge by most members of the public about scientific subjects, including biotechnology. A number of mechanisms for public participation exist, but most suffer from one of two principal limitations. Either they provide for only a small number of participants, usually representatives of interest groups, or they provide for widespread public participation but have no means for ensuring that the public input is informed. The recently completed national debate on GM foods in the United Kingdom illustrates many of the difficulties in providing for informed and effective public participation. New innovative approaches, such as on-line deliberations, are needed to achieve the goal of meaningful public participation in science-based policy decisions about genetically modified foods.

Throughout 2010, and up until this past February's general election, a number of wide-ranging proposals to reform Irish politics and the political system were mooted. The abolition of Seanad Éireann (Ireland's comparatively weak "upper house" of parliament), a reduction in the number of TDs (members of Dáil Éireann, the lower house of Irish parliament), a tightening of the rules for claiming expenses, a gender quota system to increase the number of female candidates and office holders were among them. Interesting ideas all, but what's been said and what the current government might ultimately do in response do not address what I consider a more profound systemic deficiency in Ireland.
That is the power balance between the individual politician and the political party. It is grossly out of whack. It should be a fundamental tenet of democracy that a candidate for political office, once elected, will remain true to herself and to those who placed their trust in her. It is far more likely, however, that the elected representative will blindly follow the dictates of her political party.
TDs are often criticized for engaging in clinetelist politics in service of their constituents, but in their defense, that is their only opportunity to act as individual public servants, not simply as party apparatchiks. Surprisingly to me, this issue of balance is seldom addressed, though prominent columnist and broadcaster Vincent Brown does vent at times about the power of the party whip.
The consideration of a question once posed to me at a university debate – in what seemed to be headier times for the United States after President Obama's election – crystallizes the magnitude of this problem: "Could there be an Irish Obama?" The answer, simply stated, is no.
First off, if the Illinois Democratic Party chose its nominees for office in the same fashion as an Irish political party, Barack Obama never would have been elected to the United States Senate. A black, reform-minded liberal from Chicago would almost certainly have been adjudged too risky a proposition. A moderate Democrat from the "Chicago machine" or from the conservative southern part of the state would have been considered a more viable candidate and thus ordained the nominee by the party insiders who control the nomination process in Ireland. But an open nomination process in Illinois allowed Obama to take his message to the wider electorate and he cruised to victories in the Democratic primary and general election.
Then in office, Senator Obama would have been expected to keep his head down and toe the party line in his first term if he were a member of an Irish political party. He didn't and, risking the wrath of many senior Democrats in the Senate, criticized the bipartisan majority that gave President George W. Bush unbridled authority to wage wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. His vote defined his presidential candidacy and swayed many on the left wing of his party to support him instead of the presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton. Whether one agrees with now-President Barack Obama's politics or approach to governing, the foregoing are facts.
Here in Ireland, there were surely some in the hierarchy of the then-governing Fianna Fáil parliamentary party who had deep reservations about the National Assets Management Agency (NAMA). NAMA was conceived by the party leadership and their economic advisers as a means of rescuing the banks from their out of control lending practices during the Celtic Tiger and militating against an even worse economic catastrophe than the one that has taken place. Yet back then, not one Fianna Fáil TD openly opposed the enabling legislation for fear of the repercussions.
Obama voiced disappointment at his party colleagues' acquiescence to Bush's opportunistic power grab knowing that he would not be punished as a result. A Fianna Fáil TD who voted against the NAMA legislation knew that he would have been expelled from the parliamentary party and consigned to the wilderness.
Under the status quo in Ireland, an elected official's own beliefs, conscience and free will are subjugated to her party's dictates. Those politicians who advance into leadership positions get there because they have demonstrated relentless fidelity to their party above all else and an aptitude for defending the party leadership from attack, even when objectively indefensible. As such, Irish politicians are compromised by the time they get anywhere near the top. It is no wonder then that the electorate is so cynical about its political leaders.
Irish political parties do sometimes allow TDs to vote their conscience without fear of the party whip. TDs should be allowed, and actually encouraged, to vote their conscience. While some might argue that this would cause legislative paralysis and/or chronic instability, a politician joins a party – at least one would hope – because he generally agrees with its ideology, ethos and culture. Consequently, he is likely to support the party on most votes anyway.

I'm from Arizona. I can tell you this is not a benefit for us, nor a benefit for any of the other states. You better get this one issue RIGHT! It is not a matter of race nor if you lay claim to any political party. It is a matter protecting our sovereignty and your children's future and their children's future. We citizens need to act as one united for the preservation of America and not get suckered into some feel good for the moment political agenda.
There is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about illegal aliens, particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan and Honduran aliens. Not to fail to mention every other nation of those seeking to enter the U.S. for other reasons that are NOT American friendly. Such as terror groups from the middle east.

I'm from Arizona. I can tell you this is not a benefit for us, nor a benefit for any of the other states. You better get this one issue RIGHT! It is not a matter of race nor if you lay claim to any political party. It is a matter protecting our sovereignty and your children's future and their children's future. We citizens need to act as one united for the preservation of America and not get suckered into some feel good for the moment political agenda.
I live in a state that is having a problem with illegals, officials believe around half a million.
I believe every state has the right to capture, fingerprint into a database and deport illegals.
A friendly served4 years in the military. When asked him about the Dream Act he asked me what is it. i explained it to him. He said then i don't understand why we need a dream act bc they can already get a legal citizenship status by joining our military. My son said let's not discuss illegals in the parking lot. We taxpaying US Citizens are losing our freedomsr
We welcome and salute every immigrant who comes here via legal channels...that process is to prevent the spread of communicable disease. A lady recently said her child was exposed by an illegal kindergartner who had tuberculosis..the entire class must be tested. Allowing uncontrolled immigration is a tremendous burden tot he deficit..dream act is project to increase deficit by 25 billion by 2021
This is not just about an invasion of the U.S.A. by
foreign nationals. This is about our possible freedom.
We have too date 18 million illegals in this country
a large portion of them are entering this country with weapons. If only 1 out of a thusand have weapons, thats
180,000 possible foreign troops in our country.
It would only take about 15,000 thousand or less to
invade a base like fort hood and completely take over
the weapons for their own use. could the movie Red Dawn be coming true.
How many of these illegals are Al Quida or drug lord
Could or congress and senate be taking the road that
Benedict Arnold once took.
that the States finally start taking a strong position against, in this case, the failure of the federal government to defend and protect U.S. citizens. It's a shame that politicians are using illegals as political pawns and cheap labor at the expense of the integrity of America. If this is not stopped soon, it will eventually become even more violent and law breaking. Noone wins when the law is not enforced.
Thank you for your service.
I know that the only way to stop this is to severely penalize the businesses that hire illegals. Fines are not sufficient. There must be jail time involved for it to stop. The social security system will collapse unless this is stopped. These businesses pay off the books naturally to illegals and avoid social security taxes,healthcare,local taxes,city taxes,state taxes and federal taxes. The IRS should work in conjunction with ICE and resolve this matter to save our nation and its people.
I know thousands of veterans out of work that would love the opportunity to have these jobs the illegals are taking from us including myself.
Perhaps an organization as large a The American Legion can help the veterans by speaking up in a loud voice.Maybe they can get the VFW and AMVETS to join them. That would be a blessing for all the vets they represent.
my son liked working outside He's been out of work since August and goes every day applying for jobs.
these jobs pay $7 to $10 an hour. Roofing, construction, house painting, landscaping. I just had my house roofed..there were about 10 men roofing it all spanish speaking. It's like that every where you go...mexicans mostly they are reported to make up 87% of all illegals in the USA. 25% of kindergarten children are hispanic...estimated 37% of that number are estimated to be illegal aliens. It's costing us a tremendous amount for building schools, teachers, teachers aids, supplies etc, not to mention free meals. Then there are the illegals who rape, drive drunk, no license, no insurance, kill and maim other on our highways. San Jose CA has a lawsuit against them for impounding illegals cars...this makes me angry when US CITIZENS are convicted of such crimes. Tell me that is right.
We must contact our government repeatedly to tell them what we want.
The capitalist corporations with the express approval of our government have been helping bring in illegal workers since the railroads were built. The capitalist corporations with the assistance of our government have been destroying unions from the very beginning of unions. Unions and United States citizens are the backbone of this county. The unions have enabled a living wage,our first children to go to college,our first homes,healthcare and a shorter workday and workweek so we had time to spend with our families and improve the quality of life for all.
The multi-national corporations are even worse. They do not have this nation's interest in their bottom line.
All illegals must be deported to make room for the legitimate legal immigrants that are on waiting list to come here.
I am a veteran who has been laid off several times and replaced by illegals in driving positions no less. I have a clean commercial driver's license and they have no driver's license.
the Arizona law is not about illegal IMMIGRATION it is about illegal Immigrants. Your construction of the poll question leads to a skewed response.
The checking is okay. Border enforcement (immigration) is a Federal responsibility.
may we please have he same immigration law as say mexico has. Or just may be use the law from the country of origin, that covers all the bases. Better yet I believe that we should just enforce the laws we have on the books. There can be no amnesty as the constitution has rules for citicenship and there is no easy way. thats why thay call it hard.
I'm an immegrant, I came here leagal, I served in the Army, I have no problem if anyone askes me for an ID
since I have nothing to hide...
In case anyone hasn't heard, our newest supreme court justice is member of La Raza. If someone doesn't do something soon the country we fought to preserve will no longer exist. What you don't value, you lose.
The Constitution gives the Congrss the power to make and regulate federal law; but it also gives the states the power to pass their own laws as they see fit. Illegal Immigration across the borders of Texas, New Mexico, arizona, and California cry for state intervention to do something to aid the federal government in stemming the tide of illegal immigrents. I seriously believe that all states need to join this battloe and (even though I disagree with a lot of what the Demacrates propose) I have to agree the time has come for a national ID. I believe there should be a code for violent offenders, spousal abusers, and habitual drunk drivers.Forigner's that don't want to comply can be deported! I am tired of paying high taxes so people can come into this country illegally and get free housing, free medical care, free education, and free welfare because "it's discriminatory to deny them." And how many of them are agents of enemy governments that would like to destoy us from within?
Anyone who opposes the actions of government officials to protect Americans from non Americans does not know what this country is all about. I did not take an oath to protect people from another country invading the U.S. Our jails are full of them because they are commiting crimes against our countymen. Arizona did not make it aginst law to be in the U.S. if you are a certain race. They made it against the law to be in Arizona if you are in the U.S. illegally. The illegals are not upset about the law. It is the same as existing federal laws. They are upset because Arizona intends to actually enforce the law and stop their illegal and destructive behavior. I lived most of my life within sight of our Southern border. I finally moved because I got tired of my car disappearing and the illegal gangs in all of the parks.
From what I've learned about the Constitution.. What the federal government doesn't address, is left up to the individual states to pass the laws concerning those issues, until it goes against our constitutional right.
I like the idea that Arizona is trying to do something, but I see many problems with it that could tear this country apart again. I feel the law should go after those who hire the illegals. If they can't find work, because we won't hire them, then they'll go home. The businesses that hire them should be responsible. There are laws in place for these businesses to check if these people have the proper work visa in this country, and if a business doesn't check them properly then they should be fined or three strikes and put out of business. The constitution is the almighty law for this country, and its citizens of this country and DOES NOT apply to those who are not citizens, which we are allowed to discriminate against them, and Congress should remember that instead of pleasing everyone.
Why is it Americans get 12 years at hard labor, while we give illegal immigrants drivers licenses, health care, food stamps,...?
Come on, people, be real!
I worked overseas for several years. I made sure my visas and work documents were up to date; I played the game, why is it so much to ask that everyone does the same?
I took that oath 3 times, and never was there an expiration date. Give me back the country I swore to protect and defend.
I took that oath 3 times, and never was there an expiration date. Give me back the country I swore to protect and defend.
I am from Arizona and I am as concerned about the illegal immigration and drug routes through my State as everyone else. We must establish security and protection for all Arizona Citizens and we must do it fast. However, we must do it the right way - the State does not have the authority - in accordance with the Constitution - only Congress has that Authority. So, let us work through Congress to get it done - send letters, make calls, gather at public functions and demand that our Congress do something now or vote them out of office in the next election! I am sick and tired of the "What is good for my party" attitude in Washington DC. Let us put people in office who have the "What is good for America" attitude and get things done correctly once and for all!
This is not about racism,it is not about profiling,it is about the law and entering this country legally as most of our ancestors did!It is about speaking our language,working,paying taxes,social security taxes, and being an American.I am fed up with seeing protestors crying that we are denying them their rights while carrying an Mexican flag.Come to America,but do it legally,pay into the system for the benefits you want,same as the rest of us do.If they come into this country illegally,they are criminals,especially if they bring drug and guns.It is about states going bankrupt.Try serving this country in the military,be a hero,not a drain on our economy.Get a job here,get paid above the table,not in cash to avoid paying taxes.Don't send the money home to Mexico,put it into our economy.If you didn't see the news today,you might want to purchase an AK47 of your own to protect yourself against some of these illegals.If they want to fight a war,go to Iraq so some of our guys can come home.
I have lived in AZ my whole life(59 yrs) and watched it deteriorate with all the freebies we give out to people who are not citizens. My ancestors also came from another country(legally). They went through Ellis Island and became citizens. Any state who thinks we in Arizona don't have the right to say NO and STOP, then by all means, let them take the illegals to their state and let them support them. First they had better plan to learn another language, so they can cater to them and speak to them. Get used to for English, press 1. After they take the illegals to their state and have supported them for awhile, get back with us about how you feel. After you watch your city start looking like a 3rd world country(a very poor one), then get back to us. Bottom line, Arizona can no longer afford to support them or we will be bankrupt!!!!!!!! Check out Mexico's immigration laws before you complain about ours.
Why and HOW did this become a race issue? My family came over here in the 1960's from Holland and did it legally. My Dad was required to have a job BEFORE immigrating. Both parents had to read, speak, and write English BEFORE immigrating. Our leniency has been perceived as weakness and now that someone wishes to ENFORCE existing law...it is labeled racist. I am a proud US Army Vietnam veteran married to another Vietnam Veteran and we are both American Legion members and immigrants -LEGAL immigrants.
This is not a race issue. It is about racial profiling.
Please use your real name if you wish to comunicate with me and the post you belong to.
It's a case of STATE rights; since our state militia (national guard) have been inducted by the Federal gov. for our war in Iraq; it's up to the people to defend our borders, and our way of life.
I served 23 years in the military to support and defend the constitution of the United States and its citizens. This is a Nation of laws and the people coming into this country illegally are willing to break our laws from the moment they set foot in this country. I have no problem with legal immigration. I believe we need to get our Congress to do something, other than pat themselves on their backs, pass automatic pay raises for themselves. They need to do some actual work and fix the problems with legal immigration. The law passed by Arizona is almost a duplicate of the Federal Law with the exception that I believe Arizona will actually follow the law unlike the Federal Government.
There are more than just Hispanic Illegals. Here in California the problem is out of control. If the Feds can't take care of the problem, it leaves the States without any option. If the people of Arizona aren't complaining, why should we. I think this is just the start of more states taking control of what is happening. No amnesty, close the boarders.
Why and HOW did this become a race issue? My grandmother came over here in the 1920's from Poland and did it legally...she was required BY LAW to report her whereabouts at all times. One time she moved from the upper peninsula of Michigan to Indiana -and the FBI was on her doorstep, because 3 mos had gone by and she had not reported her move...and guess what folks. She was white. AND here legally. She had an accent and was required often to show papers. Our leniency has been perceived as weakness and now that someone wishes to ENFORCE existing law...it is labeled racist. Sorry illegal IS illegal. You get no protection from MY constitution. AZ has to build 37 schools to educate this influx of illegals and AZ has to pay for that...they needed to do something. I am a proud legion member, a vietnam veteran and grand-daughter of immigrants -LEGAL immigrants and I AM NOT a racist. Titus don't accuse me of that. BTW did you serve?
This is not a racial or ethnic issue as some have tried to make it out to be. Arizona absolutely had the right to do something in order to protect their citizens from the myriad of illegal immigrant crime they have been experiencing for years. This bill would not have been necessary, if our Federal Government had not failed undertake it's responsibility to secure our national borders against foreign incursions. For many years our prospective and elected representatives have talked about securing our borders, but have done nothing. So, when one of our suffering border states finally says they've had enough and take some action, they've become the unfair target of many of these same "do nothing but talk" representatives! If they can do it better, PLEASE STEP UP TO THE PLATE! It's high time our government provided the American People the basic border security they deserve!!!
My father was an immigrant back in the late twenties. The USA is the land of opportunity and our doors are open who wish to come here legally. We are also a home for those who live under oppression form nations who do not belive in liberty. Our soldiers have died on many foreign shores in the defense of liberty. What we are dealing with is political correctness, a form of ORWELL'S NEW SPEAK IN THE BOOK 1984. This has to stop. If you are not a citizen, or have a GREEN CARD, you do not have CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS,in these United States. If you are here on a VISA,you do not have CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS in these United States. If you have none of the above you are here illegally and you should go home. There are some here who want you to stay. It is not because they are your friend it is because they want to use you presence politically. The illegal immigrants coming across the Mexican Border ar mostly Mexicans!!! I have no problem with profiling. We have to protect our nations soverignty.
God bless you for standing up for the people of color. We fought for all the people of the america but there veterans that feel they only fought for white americans.
Again, thank you titus1928 and god bless you. You are true veteran.
Regretably, jhsantana, attitudes and responses of many are hard to influence and change once a person believes what they do. But as a Legion Member and one who believes we fought and defended Americans and not just people of color or whites, making statements and or re-enforcing misperceptions helps no one. It only enflames the fires of hate, discontent, and prejudice. As a sworn member of the Legion, I would hope your comments reflect non-members attitudes. If they do not, I would like to know what Post you belong to and ask the National Leaders to make a special visit to determine worthiness to continue operations.
Please use your real name if you want answers and the post you belong to.
First of all, this is Arizona STATE law passed by the STATE legislature and does not affect any other state in the union. I live in Az. and we have an ongoing problem here. We have a congress that does not have the backbone to tackle this issue and that includes republicans as well as democrats.
As for opinions and comments let me be very blunt. If you live in Arizona and do not like this law, that is fine. If you do NOT live in Arizona and do NOT like our laws, tough! Watch our nightly news and see what is going on in Phoenix and around the border and then you can state your opinion.
POlice will be stopping anyone who looks Mexican. That is a NAZI LAW. eVERHYONE HAD DO CARRY IDENTY PAPERS IN NAZI GERMANY.
i AM ASHAMED AT THE RESPONSE TO THIS QUESTION. I HOPE THE LEGION WILL HAVE THE COURAGE TO OPPOSE THIS LAW.
As a Legion member, Titus, I find your comment as typical of those who have not been correctly informed or not read the AZ Law or understand that it is an exact wording of the Federal Law. Please, before you make pronouncements and or state the same thing you have written above, to others - who have not read the Law or asked to be informed make sure yourself you know what the Law reads and its origins. Asserting that the AZ Law is a Nazi Law dishonors those who faced the Holocaust as well as makes those of us who have sworn to defend and support the Laws of our great Land. Should you need to know exactly what the Law states and what AZ Law Enforcement can do under the Law, contact the Maricopa County Sheriff's office. At any rate, please do not misrepresent either the intent or the application of the AZ Law.
Well player if you do not like the law that the majority of the people in Arizona want(legal people that is) then I think you should pack your bags and move. But wait other states are thinking about passing same type of law. The pople of this country are tired of being door mats and as a retired Federal Officer and ex-cop,ex-Navy I am glad people are standing up for there country. Any country in the world will ask for a persons I. D. and in most you had better have one, so America woke up and now your mad I have traveled all over the world and its about time we started checking IDs
I live in a small city near the Canadian border and I feel racism and profiling big time. I am a white and my family is white. We are constantly hounded by the authorities at the border for Identification and proof of citizenship. They say "We look like Canadians". So I show my ID.
What part of ILLEGAL do people not get? If the government does not enforce all the laws, I'm running for office so I can have government officials and law enforcement not enforce slapping idiots like you in the head. Notice I called police, Law Enforcement. That's what they are supposed to do. ENFORCE the LAW. And brother, it is a very real law. I've seen it.
Since none of the "outraged" have posted a clue as what should be done, here is one idea;
Close down the borders with force. Legalize everyone inside the borders (That want to be American)
Sending home those here illegally would be too complicated and costly. Then, re-open the manned entry points to legal immigrants and visitors.
It's nice to see that someone (the Arizona Legislature and Governor) have the guts to stand up for United States of America citizens particularly since the U.S. Government (the Federal government) has neither the guts nor the inclinations to stand up to ILLEGAL immigrants. The Fed could easily pass legislation that provides HEAVY fines (1/4 million dollars and up) and incarceration (minimum 1 year in prison) for hiring ILLEGAL aliens and denies citizenship to children born of ILLEGAL immigrant born in the USA. Additionally, insuring NO free education, medical care, welfare, medicaid would go along way to curbing ILLEGALS.
Until this happens more states, e.g. Florida, should follow Arizona's lead.
I live in a small city near the Canadian border and I feel the racism and profiling big time. I am a white male and my family is white. We are constantly hounded by the authorities at the border for Identification... They say "We look like Canadians"... So I show my ID.
What part of ILLEGAL do people not get? If the government does not enforce all the laws, I'm running for office so I can have government officials and law enforcement not enforce slapping idiots like you in the head.
Notice I called police, Law Enforcement. That's what they are supposed to do. ENFORCE the LAW.
You did something wrong that is why they stopped you. They stopped me because I was brown and going for a walk.
Again, I'm for secure a border and we should get the problem fixed.
DMZS- This law does nothing to protect us from drug and human smugglers crossing the borders. It is protecting us from being asaulted from dishwashers, maids , and farm laborers.
I am white and every time I am stopped by a policeman I am asked for ID should I contact the ACLU
Az is doing what the feds refuse to do
I am amazed how many think we should simply abolish our borders and let the massive flow come in until this country is no longer as we know U.S.A. I am sure the people screaming about civil rights are educated, at least enough so they can understand what ILLEGAL actually means. Term limits: there will be many in this November up for re-election - my view is the current office holders (all parties) are and have been a large part of the problem - to vote for any of them is saying, go ahead do as you please like you all have been OR bring in new people, ideas, etc., and yes not all will be good so their term limit would be the next election. GET INVOLVED, STUDY HOW THEY VOTE, AND MOST OF ALL - VOTE.
Here's how the law will work. Each morning our racist sheriff, Apraio, will post an APB for a Hispanic male, 20 to 40 years, 150 to 225 pounds, short dark hair,wearing sneakers and a t-shirt, wanted for questioning.
Of course, the Maricopa County Storm Troopers, the lemmings that aimlessly, have never worked at the carnival so guessing age, weight, or height won't be their specialty.
however, they will be able to spot Hispanic males.
Just like it was easy to spot black males in the 50's and 60's in mississippi.
OH WAIT!!!! Sheriff Arpaio has been racial profiling for 3 years. His officers go into hispanic neighborhoods and stop brown people and hold them and then release them after they show ID.
In the meantime this law will not do nothing for troubles at the border.
Regardless of what you think, it's the right thing to do as they have been breaking the law for years and people like you have been aiding them, so you're just as guilty of breaking the law. Thousands have taken the time to study and become citizens legally, if they could do it so could others.One thing I'd like to see is to have Mexico pay for all the FREE medical care it's citizens have had while being in this country illegally. With ten million five hundred thousand, that would be quite a piece of change, wouldn't it.Your own country doesn't even care about you,fewer they have to be concerned about, if they care at all.
I am a U.S. Citizen and a veteran. I have lived in
Central America for the last 55 years, and believe me,
the immigration laws in Mexico and other countries in
Latin America are a lot more strict than the laws in
The United States.
Stay out of Az Am Legion. We don't need more racists coming to Az. You are still living in the 1950's. My father, who was a ww11 vet, was denied membership into the Am legion because he was brown. He was not allowed to use his VA loan to buy a home in white neighborhoods. I'm a 100% disabled vietnam vet and brown. Now when I go for a walk I must carry I.D. just in case I'm stopped for being brown.
I'm for protecting our border against drugs and illegal entry. But the new law implies, "show me your papers" if you are brown. Nazi Germany also said" show me your papers" to the jewish people.
as a fellow vietnam vet, I find your comments very racist. The VA hospital can help you.
I've been an American citizen all my 60 years of age. If you are illegal, no matter what color you may be, you don't belong in this country without a legal citizenship. No phoney Social Security Cards! Pay taxes, and respect the flag and the USA! What Arizona has done is a move in the right direction. The other states should do the same! What happen to Homeland Security???
Show our support
I get asked for my ID everytime I travel to a foreign country. I am Proud to show my USA ID. I am also proud to show my USA ID here in the States if asked for it. The only people afraid to produce an ID are those who are ashamed of thier country or those who are criminals.
I do not believe any person who is in this country illegally should be deported promptly. However, the Arizona law is not the way to go about it. There are thousands of Hispanic people in this country who are native born Americans or who are here legally. They have the same rights as I and the rest of us do. They should not have to prove their citizenship under any circumstances that the rest of us would not be required to do so.
This covers South and North America, just ask anyone living in South America, they'll tell you they are Americans, and they are right, but that doesn't make them a U.S. Citizen.
We're not talking about Legal Immigration where a person comes through the proper facility. We are talking about illegal immigration, where people are just sneaking across the border.
imo, Az is doing the right thing. We are among the few nations that allow this sort of thing to happen.
Do you not know that you are required to carry ID on your person. This is the same for Visas and Green Cards. You are required by law to carry some form of Identification. What part of that do you find wrong? If you are stopped by an officer the first thing they ask for is, if your are driving, a drivers license. If you are stopped out of a vehicle they ask for ID. This crap of people thinking their rights are being invaded because Arizona wants the Illegals out is stupid. If you are so worried about these people then MOVE TO MEXICO
I have absolutely no confidence in our Federal government to write legislation that will not be totally self serving, i.e., vote getting. The self serving elected have shown no interest to do anything to solve the illegal immigration situation until they are pushed to the wall. Arizona is doing some pushing.
I applaude them. More states need to come in to line on this to prod the fed's into action we the people are begging for. Protect our borders! Enforce laws already on the books! Amnesty the 2nd time? I hope not.
E. Thornburgh
If the Federal Government will not enforce the law, which IS their job, then the states must act accordingly to protect their citizens.
It is disgraceful that our polititians have allowed illegal immigration to continue just so they can acquire
votes for their own benefit!
We need term limits so hopefully they would do what is best for our country.
The American Legion should schedule an event in Arizona and go on record in support of Arizona's effort to enforce the U.S. Government's immigration laws.

Construction has started back at Augusta's Southside Elementary School and one neighbor says because of that the rats are back. News 12 is on your side with a rat problem that won't go away and what the school board plans to do about it.
Carey Phillips is putting out poison for rats who don't care about a no trespassing sign.
"It's been going on for a couple of months now. Oh, there's a dead one right there, oh dear heavens, I'm sorry," Phillips said.
As you can see, she's terrified of the rodents. And now she's starting to run into the rats on a regular basis.
"You can pull it back. I'm not going to look at him," Phillips said. "Get him on camera, I want these people to see what I have to see."
Carey says the rats are coming from just one street away.
Neighbors say the problem didn't begin until construction started at Southside Elementary.
RCN Construction is doing the work. Sight Manager Phil Prince admits he's seen a few rats.
"I noticed we would move material or blocks or something and one would be hiding under it and of course he would scurry off," Prince said.
"By them digging it's bringing them down here," Phillips said.
Contractors say most likely the rats are running away from the vibrations from the drilling.
"We're not bringing the rats, I think we're just stirring them up," Prince said.
The school's neighbors complained last year when the construction first started, and got some relief.
"Last time they were notified they wouldn't do anything about it until we called you," Phillips said.
After the rat poison was put down, neighbors say they were back to square one a few months later. And they want the Board of Education to do something about it.
"This is a problem and it needs to be taken care of," Phillips said.
The school board says they will take a look at the problem and see what they can do to alleviate the problem since neighbors feel the rats are coming from the construction area.
And if you have a pest problem of your own, 12 is on your side with ways to get rid of the rats. According to the University of Nebraska's Agricultural Department, the most long-term and effective way to control a rat population is by sealing holes with metal or concrete. To get rid of your infestation immediately, there are a number of rodenticides and fumigants on the market that can kill off rats with just one dose.

News 12 First at Five / Tuesday, April 23, 2013
CLEARWATER, S.C. (WRDW) -- There's just one image burned into Katie Robertson's head. Imagine what it's like to stare down the barrel of a loaded shotgun with a 3-year-old child in your arms.
"I was going to die. I was going to die with my baby in my hand," Robertson said.
Last night, just before 6 p.m., that's what happened to Robertson.
"Next thing I heard was a shot," she said. "I went down and heard another shot and didn't get up."
She said a deputy told her she should have died, but miraculously, she and her baby weren't hit.
An Aiken County Sheriff's Office report says four armed men, some of them in black masks, shot up a mobile home park on Carn Park Drive, which is right off Cherokee Drive, in Clearwater. Two were on foot, witnesses say. The other two were in a white car.
"My brother walked over and asked me if I knew the white car. I told him no," Robertson said. "He said that two boys got out with masks on their faces, so my first thing to do was to get the kids in the house."
However, it was too late. She says the white car drove between the two of them.
Robertson says the confrontation started when her brother caught two of the men breaking into a nearby home. She says the suspects' covers were blown, and they came locked and loaded for revenge. She says it's dangerous in a neighborhood where almost 15 kids were outside at the time, including her own.
"Small kids under the age of 10," she said. "That's the sad thing about it."
An investigator was back today taking pictures and collecting statements, too. The Sheriff's Office says the four individuals, if they're caught, will be charged with attempted murder.
"They need to go down. Period. And I won't stop until something happens, because my baby is just totally a mess. He's a big mess," Robertson said.
The neighbors unfortunately weren't able to get a good description of the suspects. The Aiken County Sheriff's Office was able to locate one shell casing Monday night.
Again, miraculously, there were no injuries.

CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Stanford's Chasson Randle scored a game-high 30 points, but it wasn't enough for the Cardinal to get past Oregon State in an 81-72 Pac-12 Conference loss Thursday night at Gill Coliseum.
Each time Stanford looked to get even, Oregon State came up with the big shot. Twice it was freshman point guard Hallice Cooke burying 3-pointers to stem the tide.
And while Randle did all he could to try to overcome those big shots, it wasn't enough to help the Cardinal get over the hump.
"Hat goes off to them," Randle said. "They came ready to play and I feel like we didn't. When we closed the gap it was just about getting a stop and we couldn't get that tonight. That's what we've got to work on."
The Cardinal (9-5, 0-2 Pac-12) got within two three times in the final 10 minutes of the game but never got it even.
"I thought our guys kept fighting," Stanford coach Johnny Dawkins said. "I thought we played the full 40 minutes trying to make plays. We got back in the game and cut it to one or two possessions and we just couldn't get over the hump. We needed that stop or we needed to make a play and it just wasn't there to be made tonight, unfortunately."
While Randle made 10 of 18 shots and Stefan Nastic was 4 for 4 (finishing with 11 points), the rest of the team made just 10 of 36 attempts. There were two stretches, one in each half, when the Cardinal went nearly five minutes without a made field goal.
"They did a good job," Dawkins said of Oregon State. "They defended well. We thought we had a couple good looks that didn't go. We weren't as successful as we wanted to be on offense."
It looked like the Beavers (9-6, 1-2) might pull away midway through the second half taking a 57-49 lead. But the Cardinal responded with a 6-0 run.
Dwight Powell's reverse dunk as he drove the baseline got Stanford to within 57-53. Randle's basket made it 57-55, but the Cardinal was unable to get even as they missed two shots.
Then Cooke buried a 3-pointer and Eric Moreland had a bucket as the Beavers regained the momentum and went up 62-55 with 8:09 to play.
The Cardinal got within 65-63 thanks to an Anthony Brown 3-pointer with 4:25 to play, but again Stanford was unable to get the game even.
Cooke's third 3-pointer of the game with just under 3 minutes to play made it 71-66 and the Cardinal never got any closer.
The Beavers finished with eight 3-pointers compared to just two for the Cardinal. Dawkins said that was a key.
"They shot the ball very well," Dawkins said. "A number of guys stepped up and made shots. Cooke hit a big shot late and that's what you have to do in these types of games."
Thanks to Randle's 14 points and Nastic's nine, the Cardinal managed to trail by just a 37-32 score after the opening 20 minutes despite making just 13 of 31 shots from the floor. Randle made 6 of 8 shots, including his only 3-point and free throw attempt, while Nastic was 3 for 3. The rest of the team was an abysmal 4 for 20.
The Cardinal struggled to get anything going down low in the first half. Stanford had just 10 points in the paint in the opening half while Oregon State scored 20 of their 37 there.
Stanford trailed from the start and didn't take its first lead until Josh Huestis' bucket with 11:37 to go in the half.
After Randle's 3-pointer with 10:02 to go in the half put the Cardinal up 18-17, Oregon State used a 12-1 run to go up 29-19 with 4:50 to play in the half.
Powell had 13 points and Nastic added 11 for the Cardinal, but both dealt with foul trouble in the second half.
Moreland, starting for the first time this season and playing in just his third game after being suspended the first 12 games, made an impact for the Beavers.
The junior forward finished with 17 points and 15 rebounds. Roberto Nelson led the Beavers with 21 points and Cooke chipped in 16 in his first start.

Dorien, Your Blog is very well done, I like the way you write! I answered your Introduction first on that post....I think Kyle may like this one, my husband Teddy used to say, "Now we know what is wrong, let's fix it!"
Dorien....welcome to our site and thank you for sharing this wonderful blog with us. Dorien, I read through some of your blog and am wondering whether you have applied for Disability? As far as I know, you can apply online on the Social Security website (Diane had mentioned this.)
we have applied for SS Dis. and were denied (as my husband is still working)--
we've heard it is really hard to get on ...if anyone has any advice on that--we would love it for when the point comes that Kyle is not working!
Dorien....correct, your husband will not qualify as long as he is working however; I would look into it a bit more. If indeed he retires, due to the terminal prognosis, he should qualify and possibly receive back pay to day of diagnoses. Additionally, the children may receive benefits also including back pay.
Hoping for others to chime in and help you out with their experiences.
Your story is fascinating to me, your feelings sound oh so familiar. It's exactly what I was feeling a year ago when my husband was diagnosed. I'm not nearly as articulate as you are though. Regarding SS disability, you should reapply. We were approved right away and I think it's that diagnosis that does it. Also, the question regarding if your illness is expected to result in death moves you to the head of the line, so to speak. Unfortunately, it does take 6 months for the benefits to start, but it's best to get the ball rolling.
My husband found out on April 5th last year and that was the last day he worked. He was exhausted all the time and his job was very intense and he simply couldn't do it anymore. I'm glad your husband feels well enough to continue to work though, I'm sure it's good for him psychologically as well as financially for your family. God bless you! This is a hard time for you, I know.
Hi Dorien,
I really love your blog. Your feelings are my feelings and I really get you. The only difference is the person with cancer is my daughter. I hope Kyle continues the good fight and does well. We have a very supportive family as well and that makes all the difference. Once the newness of all this sinks in, it becomes a little easier to deal with. I also got some happy pills (antidepressants) from my doctor that work wonders to keep me from going off the deep end. Take care and God bless you and your family.
thanks Pam (and everyone)-
my husband (ironically) is a clinic admin for a Dr Office (family practice)--
the Drs have mentioned i may at some point need some kind
of meds to help deal with this--
I am not against keeping myself off of the deep end (esp with 4 children)
Hi Dorien, my wife Cindy was diagnosed 4/2011 with intrahepatic CC and was treated at Indiana University Simon Cancer Center in Indianapolis. August 2011 her Dr. recommended her speaking with a social worker about SS disability. CC is "on the list" of cancers qualifying a person for SS. Her process started in August and in November she recieved a check for 8 months of SS, back to the month of diagnoses. I do know you can have limited income while receiving SS disability, but am not sure of the amount. I would never make a recommendation about a person leaving their job to draw disability, although if his job allowed maybe he could work part time and be under the maximum allowed earnings. I know in our case, it was getting diificult, mentally and physically, for Cindy to continue to work while having chemo. It allowed her and I to spend more time together and with our kids and grandkids. Sadly Cindy lost the battle with CC in February of this year, three weeks short of her 57th birthday. God bless you and Kyle.
Dear LannyA, first I would like to express my heartfelt condolences for your wife, Cindy and then to thank you for telling us about Social Security Disability as that is always one of our big questions. This is a hard time for you but when you are ready you will find your "new normal". Happy Memories will replace the grief when the time is right, they really do.
If I should be the first to go,
And leave you alone, my Dear,
Let not your heart be lonely,
Nor in your eyes a tear.
Grieve not for me, my Darling,
I'll not be far away,
With petals of love and tenderness,
I'll pave for you the way.
To join me in our sanctuary,
And ne'er again we'll part.
Grieve not for me, my Darling,
I live within your heart.
Take joy again in living,
As you did in years gone by;
God knows what of he's doing,
And not be questioned why.
Grieve not for me, my Darling,
My life with you on earth
Each moment filled with happiness,
And love so few be worth.
I'll be waiting for you Sweetheart
Where skys are ever blue,
With eager heart and open arms
Patiently, for you.
Grieve not for me, my Darling,
May faith and my love keep.
Your soul filled with contentment
Eternally, I sleep.
Lanny...Your kindness to help others in a time of sorrow says so much about you and who you are. Thank you, Lanny, for supporting those in need of answers and for opening your heart to us. My love to you and your family.
Thanks Lainy and Marion, That is the reason I aquired my own log in. I have read a few post latley that I thought I could help with an answer or suggestion and did not want to post under Cindy's log in. As a constant caregiver for two years I have learned a few things and if I can help someone dealing with what I call the "indiscriminate demon" known as CC, I want to, and Cindy would want me to.
Lanny Andrews
Lanny, I hope one day that none of us have to be on this sight, although I would really miss all my CC Family, for sure. My husband got the "demon" at age 73 and this Board got me through the next 5 1/2 years. I found I could not give it up after he passed and it is my way of paying it forward, besides I became addicted to this site. I also found that it is very cathartic to write. We are happy to have you and I am sure you can lend some advise even a chuckle or 2. Our members are the most caring and loving people the owrld over, and I might add very smart!
Hi Lanny,
It is a pleasant surprise to see you on this site. I think it will help others for you to offer advice wit your words of wisdom about CC. I also think it will help you as well. Cindy always had a kind word and I'm sure you will carry on and do the same. I think she would be so proud of you and your willingness to help others.
Bless you, Lanny,
Hi Lanny
thanks for your insight and advice...so sorry to hear about your wife.
we will keep researching SS so when the time comes kyle can get the ball rolling.
he still feels really good--strange but true.
he is the kind of person that has a hard time sitting around and
AT THIS POINT, mentally, working for him is SO healthy.
I know there will be a time when that is not possible.
so we will keep planning and taking advice for when we come to that
thanks again!
Hi Lanny,
I am fairly new to this site and didn't know your wife, Cindy. However, when I read your above post I couldn't help but post a response to say how moving it is that you can reach out to help others while you are going through your grief. Thank you for your kindness.

Roberts, Payne qualify for State Meet
On Thursday at the Northern Section Championship, two Gridley runners fought through the weather to earn the chance to represent Gridley High School at the State Cross Country Championships.
Despite the rain, thunder, lightning and hail, Averie Roberts and Brennah Payne proved how hard work pays off.
Sophomore Brennah Payne finished 40th out of 138 with a time of 21 minutes and 33 seconds.
Senior Averie Roberts, who broke the school record last week, finished six spots behind Payne with a time of 21 minutes and 49 seconds.
