Skip to comments.Perry Open to Further Intervention in Mexicos Drug War
Posted on 10/01/2011 3:12:56 PM PDT by Cincinatus' Wife
MANCHESTER, N.H. Gov. Rick Perry of Texas said on Saturday that as president, he would consider sending American troops into Mexico to help defeat drug cartels and improve border security. He indicated that any such action would be done in concert with the Mexican government.
It may require our military in Mexico working in concert with them to kill these drug cartels and to keep them off of our border and to destroy their network, Mr. Perry said during a campaign appearance here.
I dont know all the different scenarios that would be out there, he said. But I think it is very important for us to work with them to keep that country from failing.
Sending soldiers into Mexico even with the approval of the Mexican government would represent a far more aggressive policy than the one employed by Washington in recent years, despite the stepped-up surveillance and logistical aid that has been provided to Mexican authorities.
The idea would also almost certainly be a non-starter with Mexican authorities. Mexico lost half of its territory to the United States in the 1850s, and ever since it has been very sensitive to the idea of any involvement by American troops in its territory.
........Mr. Perry made the comments about potentially sending troops into Mexico while describing his hopes for increased cooperation with the Mexican government, and he said that if he were elected president, he would work hard to create a very trusting relationship with his counterpart in Mexico.
His comments also suggested that he may pursue a far more interventionist military and foreign policy in Mexico, one that is much more expansive that even the widened approach that the Obama administration has sought.......

Gov. Perry: Federal Government Must Take Action To Prevent Spillover Violence from Mexico Requests Predator Drones and National Guard Troops along BorderMonday, March 15, 2010
"Feds say immigrants using torches and bungee cords on border fence"
Perry in helicopter with Greta VanSusteren
It is the Federal government's responsibility to secure the border. What is "non" border state politician Obama doing about it but turning his back on Rick Perry when he went to meet him on the tarmac in Austin with a letter -- after being denied a meeting?
Texas Gov. Rick Perry tries to deliver to Obama a letter expressing border security concerns. Photo by Jay Janner/Austin American-Statesman/ Aug 9, 2010 -- His letter was handed to Valerie Jarrett (in pink suit).
We have the technology. Predator drones are being flown in United States air space as we speak. Why not fly those from Brownsville, Texas, to El Paso and to Tijuana and back and use that real-time information for local law enforcement, our state law enforcement and our federal counterparts? Thats how you thoughtfully secure that border, and then you can have a discussion about what type of immigration reform we want to consider as a country. But not until then. Too many times, weve been told, if well just pass this immigration reform then well secure the border. And it hasnt happened...."
The state of Texas spends $100M yearly from state funds, using among other things an elite Texas Ranger force to try to secure our long border with Mexico. Rick Perry wants and has asked for drones in the air and boots on the ground (but not a fence except in urban areas where it helps).
The Federal government with it's social engineering, it's public school "don't ask for a child's U.S. citizen status" dictate, and their continued inaction on this, have put Texas in the position of resorting to working the problem as it relates to the state. So the children of illegal immigrants who have attended a minimum 3 years of high school in Texas and graduated (who want go on the college) - who are working toward citizenship, they are allowed to pay in-state tuition. This makes them more likely to contribute to the state economy than take from it. This is a big help because Texas pays a lot of money on education and health care costs due to the current federal inaction of securing the border.
I think a President Perry would have the brains and fortitude and the credibility, to finally do something about this -- no one else will. Gov. Perry has said that the border MUST BE SEALED before any talk of "where do we go next" will take place -- he said he will not repeat the cycle that keeps occurring. Gov. Perry also said in the Reagan Library debate that, "If President Obama thinks El Paso, Texas is safer today (which Obama said at a rally during a fund raising trip to the Mexican border town), either he has the worst Intel ever, or he is an abject liar."
Border related crime is a big problem for Texas (for the nation) -- it cost us money and it is a human tragedy of immense scale (crime, human trafficking, drug trafficking...)
It seems pretty apparent that the Military Mexico has now is incapable of dealing with the cartels. Quite possibly because they are in league with the cartels.
I do not believe Mexico is able to secure their own State, and I doubt they would allow us to do it either, but it isn't a totally bad idea.
This is what I have been waiting to here.
Gov. Perry has a good working relationship with Mexico since Texas shares a 1250 border with them and they are the number one trading partner of the U.S.
He would be able to get something done. And seal the border.
Obama can't and won't.
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.
The good ideas are out there but the Obama adm and the Left want to bury us.
Rick Perry's Intriguing Idea for Bi-National Health Insurance
Contrary to Sen. Santorums impression, the idea here was to explore the possibility of allowing private insurers to cover health services provided in either Texas or Mexico. It was an attempt at studying the deregulation of the provision of health insurance by private entities.
Excellant post.
You have clarified a lot of Perry's perspective.
Romney, et all don't have a clue! Well, maybe Cain does.
Perry is an executive of a huge state, he has lived there and dealt with this all his life and my observation is that he is the most realistic, yet aggressive, about securing our borders and dealing with immigration.
But then, who cares about states rights anyways, huh?
I have now donned my CKV..."computer Kevlar vest"..ha.
Seems all the Obama adm has done is GIVE guns to the Mexican drug cartels. A Texas ICE special agent was murder with one of those guns. Hundreds of people are believed to be possible victims of those Obama-Holder weapons given to criminals who traffic in drugs and humans. Belief is that the Obama adm was setting up a situation where the sale of these guns would open a challenge to the 2nd Amendment.
Perry is STRONG 2nd Amendment.
Please add me to the Perry ping.....at great risk of getting flamed...ha.
People might accuse Governor Perry of being heartless.
Please repost this tonight.
Perry is the only one who is running that is dealing with this problem on a daily basis and I think he has good instincts on this issue. I have been waiting for a President to say this for a very long time.
" - - - he [ You Lie Obama ] is an abject liar - - - "
Over 30,000 Mexicans have been murdered in Mexico in the last 10 years. In one Mexican city school teachers have stopped teaching school because the Mexican drug gangsters are displaying the heads of their murdered victims on bridge railings.
Missionaries have been murdered in broad daylight just to steal their pickup trucks. Whatever the drug gangster wants to take they take, and murder anyone that they want to. It is small wonder that millions of Mexicans have sought safe refuge in the USA.
The primary driver for this slaughter is the US voracious appetite for drugs. Stop consuming drugs America, and restore Mexico to once again being a wonderful place to live and visit.
...And then Ill give them and their kids in-state tuition rates he added.
I sure don't have the answers, but it's apparent something needs to be done.
In one town they're demanding 1/2 of the teachers' salaries or they'll kidnap them. They did kidnap a few and then the teachers stopped teaching and the school closed.
The drug cartel and the border gangs are growing on the border and this is a bad situation for both countries.
It can't help but be driving more people across the border.
Perry and his counter part in Mexico will lock this down and seal the border.
If only Rick Perry had worked for building a fence,
and worked against freebies for illegal aliens,
we all would have been for him.
We've had 35 years of traitorous Republicans and Democrats in the WH and Congress who have refused to secure our borders. Reagan started kit with amnesty.
Now we have nation that is turning into Mexico with all of its historic problems. Mexico has never produced much in its history except for corruption, the siesta, Mexican food, and the sombrero. When the USA imports tens of millions of Mexicans what would make anyone think that this will improve the USA culture and our nation? It won't.
But the US Chamber of Commerce and these global corporations are buying Congress so they give away our sovereignty and allow open borders. These groups are destroying the USA so they can save $5/hr on labor.
You know that warning you get when you watch a DVD about years in prison and hundreds of thousands in fines for copying a BS Hollywood crap movie, that's what all employers should get when they counterfeit a legitimate American with an illegal immigrant worker?
Seal the border and Mexico will deal with their problems. Yes it is tempting to say send in USA troops to once again do the dirty work for another nation. But just as with Iraq it won't be a cakewalk. Those that want it are defense contractors wanting profits. Seal the border and make our nation great again.
It sure does get their attention. IOW, if they don't want us fixing the problem with, or without them, they better get on it.
I think he could handle it.
The economic benefits of wiping out the cartels (and the corrupt officials in cahoots with them) would far outweigh the negative short-term consequences of intervening more aggressively (even at the cost of transferring some troops from Afghanistan to North America).
My belief is that Afghanistan and Pakistan are lost causes.
I realise the dangers of Pakistan owning nukes, but it won't be long before countries even more dangerous have them.Pakistan has proven they cannot be trusted, and the British, Russians and now us are being driven out of Afghanistan. Is it really worth the lives of our troops to have them stay there when more people are being killed every day in Mexico than in Afghanistan.Right here on oue side of the world.
I don't see us going to Mexico,without Mexicao asking us to and I don't believe that will happen, but we do need to recognise the dangers that could spread to our country any time.I believe most Americans do recognise the danger , but
Napolitano, Holder, The Bama boy haven't got a clue,.
Maybe we should just annex Mexico.
Yes Obama insulted the Governor of a huge state. Perry tried to give him a letter requesting border assistance and it was refused not only by Obama but his little minion Valerie Jarrett. This insult made all the news outlets in TX and did not make Obama any friends there.
Frankly, I don't want to see one single American GI die fighting drug cartels IN Mexico. Put our servicemen ON the border, but not one step inside Mexico. The drug cartels are armed to the teeth thanks to Obama, and knowing how the Dems have tied the hands of ICE and the Border agents, they would also tie the hands of our troops. Close the border and let the Mexicans kill each other.
Yes, you're right and that's what my image showed. Obama had previously refused to take Perry's phone calls too.
Perry has always stood up to Obama and Obama hates that, and our success in Texas.
Obama first shut down our oil drilling, he's refused border help and has even enacted a delay on deportation. He delayed helping with the Bastrop fire until over a thousand homes and 100 thousand acres of land were burned. Obama put unreasonable EPA restrictions on our chemical plants and refineries, etc, etc.
And in spite of all that we have prospered better than any other state. Oil drilling is starting up again but I understand the conditions to do so are onerous.
"We have a connection that goes back many years," he said. "And Israel has a lot that we can learn from, especially in the areas of water conservation and semi-arid land - Israeli technology has helped us a lot in dealing with drought."
"But also," the governor continued, "when I was here for the first time some 18 years ago and I was touring the country, the comparison between Masada and the Alamo was not lost on me. I mean, we're talking about two groups of people who were willing to give up their lives for freedom and liberty." Beyond the comparisons, Gov. Perry said another point of his trip here was to show other people "what was really going on", with regards to the military threats facing the country, and in particular the IDF's recent Operation Cast Lead in the Gaza Strip.
"We went to the border with Gaza and received a briefing from the army there, and we went to Sderot and saw the police station with all the Kassam rockets piled up, we saw playgrounds that had to be covered from rocket fire. It's a powerful place." In that vein, the governor said he was also interested in learning more about security aspects while in the country, as Texas has a large, porous border with Mexico, and the recent violence in that country had unnerved many Texans.
"Israel is a leader in security technology, and another reason for our visit to the Gaza border was to see some of the security measures being used there," said Perry.
"Kassam rockets have killed 28 Israelis over the last eight years. Well, 1,000 people have been killed in Juarez [Mexico, on the border with El Paso , Texas] since the beginning of the year [in drug-related violence]. So we're trying to find ways to secure that border, because just like it's important to Israelis to keep heavy security on their border with Gaza, it's important to citizens of Texas to keep out the illegal activities that are going on with drugs [in Mexico]
Honestly I don't care or GaS about these other countries including Israel. My ONLY allegiance is to the USA.
These other entangling alliances that we've somehow become addicted to and involved with, in direct contradiction to our founding father George Washington, mean nothing to me.
My ancestors came to the USA from Germany in the early 1700s, and frankly Germany means nothing to me. If you believe that any other nation should have a priority over the USA then I would suggest that you (meaning anyone) move there and GTF out of the USA. It is outrageous that any American would put other nations before our own.

Skip to comments.Florida University Student Suspended After Refusing to Stomp on Jesus
Posted on 03/21/2013 8:00:33 PM PDT by Morgana
A student at Florida Atlantic University has charged that his professor in intercultural communications class told the whole class to write the name JESUS in bold letters on a piece of paper, then drop the papers and stomp all over them.
The alleged incident happened three weeks ago on the Davie, Florida campus of FAU, according to WPEC-TV.
Junior Ryan Rotela, a devout Mormon, is the student making the charge.
Anytime you stomp on something it shows that you believe that something has no value, he told the South Florida CBS affiliate. So if you were to stomp on the word Jesus, it says that the word has no value.
Some students stomped; others, including Rotela, didnt. He said he told the instructor, Deandre Poole, that the assignment offended his religious convictions.
(Excerpt) Read more at janmorganmedia.com ...
Just like Mark Studdock in That Hideous Strength. (CS Lewis)
So glad to see that others on FR have read one of my favorite books.
Stomp Jesus FAU professor (Dr. Deandre Poole)is a Dem. Party official
This is the best that a university can offer for classes? Teaching folks how to stomp?
When you go back to the 1800s version of a university...it was about enlightenment and discussions over Greek tragic operas, Roman history, engineering, and communication. We didn't really pump out that many folks, and if you ever admitted that you'd graduated from a real university....you were somebody.
Today? You basically graduate and admit you've been stomping on paper with God or Jesus written on it....as part of the classes. Folks would look at you.
The sad thing is that you could have taken a class on Greek tragic opera or Roman history, and been a thousand times more enlightened, than with the stomping class. Sadly, tax payers fund this stuff. Go figure.
I'd like to see the professor try the same stunt with Mohammed and see what the reaction is.
What was the point of this idiocy? Does any legitimate teaching or learning go on in colleges these days? What sort of job does this prepare a student for - community organizer?
It's impossible to go overboard with so-called 'conservative conspiracies' because they ALWAYS TURN OUT TO BE TRUE!!!
These are communists! There can be no other explanation. Under normal circumstances, the student would have just gotten a zero for class discussion and that would have been the end of it.
Can't say I'm looking forward to civil war but it's coming soon.
I've read it, though it's been a long time.
Just another Latter Day Saint (Mormon) showing that his commitment to Christ our Saviour is the central theme in his life and in his heart.
I would just write OBAMA in big letters and stomp on that. If questioned, I would say "You can stomp on my god, I'll stomp on yours."
I am sure the ACLU and the Justice Dept will show up ASAP
What Jesus is that T?
The Biblical Jesus or the was once a man lds jesus?
However, the bigger question is why is the university doing this crap-o-la in the first place?
And yet the Book of Mormon and the LDS doctrine does the very same thing...
Lets see how long he would have lasted if he had students stomp on a Koran? or an image of Mohammed? Not Long indeed. Some one better tell him that Islamic people revere Jesus too as Jehu—In their belief system he is greater than Mohammed (this I can agree with them on). A stupid lesson and one that should get his behind out of any class room. What does he think? that we live in a nation of Free Speech?
"Just another Latter Day Saint (Mormon) showing that his commitment to Christ our Saviour is the central theme in his life and in his heart."
Coincidentally, or maybe not, the other thread on this topic has more information. Therein, it claims that Student's hesitation to not stomp is part of the intended purpose of the exercise. IOW, stomping on the name of Jesus isn't something he could have been punished for, as it was expected that students would not do so or hesitate. The idea being, that it would be a way to move to a larger discussion on the power of names or symbolism.
As stupid as the lesson is, it's pretty fishy that he would be punished at all for reacting according to script.
So, while I have no real sympathy for the university, I tend to lean on this being another one of those moments where the Mormon guy invents a dead girlfriend, or climbs up on the cross for attention, even though he knows we need the wood.
The early articles on this reek of sensationalism, and I think we need the professor's side on it, or other students, to know what really happened.
Davie has enough of a Catholic population between the Brazilian and Haitian population, not to mention the stray Cuban that commutes to the school. Religion taken very seriously for most immigrants. The school needs to rethink this...
HA! That might have set this goon professor straight! Instead of Jesus, write mahammed and see hus reaction.
College degrees are worthless in many disciplines, if you could call them that.
If you have a degree in the sciences, it has a bit more bearing. If you take Physical Chemistry, you can either solve the problems and understand the concepts, or you can't .
Of course, that is dependent on how the institution concludes you understand...many might just take your word for it, because they don't want to lose the tuition revenues...
He could have simply changed the name to Muhammed or Barack Obama and then stomped on it, since it was an exercise in religious desecration (liberals would hold Barack equivalent to a messiah)
of course then he might be targeted by a fatwa, not university suspension
ah decisions decisions
you read my mind
And I praise the young man for his stand!
My prayer is that his commitment will allow him to continue his education about Christianity and MORMONism and he'll make an even better decision in the future.
You fail to realize that college is a tool to make unemployment rates look better for 4 years...
You've left out something:
(... for my God ... for my Church ... for my Family ... for my Country ....)
Take stupid classes, get stupid assignments...
Thanks for the ping!! Happy Palm Sunday!
I'm sorry.
I commend the LDS student for not stomping, but that doesn't mean the lds-ord teaches the truth about the true Jesus, because they don't.
Just for the record.
What DIFFERENCE does it make??
"Just another Latter Day Saint (Mormon) showing that his commitment to Christ our Saviour is the central theme in his life and in his heart."
Devotion and commitment are good qualities, BUT faith is only as good as the object it is placed in... and in the mormonic case, a created spirit Christ cannot save.
The great news is that the REAL CHRIST is available to this student and to you teppe. Why not come to Him, teppe.
I honestly think that girl is a couple fries short of a happy meal!!
Today's students don't have the reading skills for that. Too many old words with lots of letters.
Will you all please stay on topic!! This is thread is NOT about Mormons it is about Jesus and some liberal university trying to stamp his image out of young people's minds.
Thank you very much Teppe for pointing out the young man was Mormon. I did not know this when I posted the article.
I do have this question to ask. How many of those other students in the class were "so called Christians", went to church when they were growing up with Ma and Pa and yet did this horrible act?? Elsie, ejonesie22, and Fishtank it may have been people in YOUR religion, you don't know!! All we do know is others did the stomping.
As is typical here, anything praiseworthy done by a Mormon has be turned into a platform to try and cut them down. Sad that some are so insecure.
...and a toy; too!
Yup; A university teaches empty minds things.
And a false religion does the same.
MORMONism has STOMPED on ALL of Christianity; so it is quite the topic to stay on!
(You did read reply #28; didn't you???)
Yes Ma'am; my companion and I were taught in a university as well!
We learned all KINDS of things from our wonderful teachers!!
As is typical here, someone is TRYING to misdirect the scorn for a FALSE RELIGION into a personal attack on someone.
And; as is typical here; it ain't gonna work.
Yup; but just what is it that is so bad in MORMON culture that UTAH leads the nation in Prozac® usage?
And if they were they would get a good talking to. It said he was Mormon in the very article you posted. Teppe tried to make hay out of it and we shut them down. The irony was too much...
Sad that some are so insecure.
There is a reason for that. A very clear one.
Just who WOULDN'T be; with THIS fate awaiting them???
"Now if any of you will deny the plurality of wives, and continue to do so, I promise that you will be damned;
and I will go still further and say, take this revelation, or any other revelation that the Lord has given,
and deny it in your feelings, and I promise that you will be damned.

Back in February I asked the question "Is the 2013 Eagles QB competition truly open?" and came to the conclusion that, yes, it was. Direct quotes from Chip Kelly himself backed up that sentiment. Then we witnessed Michael Vick and Nick Foles (and to a lesser extent, Matt Barkley) split time with the first team in OTAs, as confirmed by numerous beat writers.

Ryan Lilly, 27, of Unionville, Missouri, is charged with five counts of stealing a firearm, one count of unlawful possession of a firearm, also one count each of burglary, stealing and stealing a motor vehicle. He is being held in the Daviess-DeKalb Regional Jail under $50,000 bond.
According to court papers, the victim reported a burglary earlier this week. The following day he notified the Putnam County Sheriff's Office that he saw some of the items being loaded into a pickup. When deputies arrived the truck was gone, however, a search warrant served at a Unionville residence revealed some of the stolen items.
Ryan Lilly, according to the court papers, went to the Putnam County Sheriff's Office later the same day and admitted to the burglary of the residence and storing the items in his home. He also told deputies where they could find the stolen firearms.
Lilly has previous felony convictions and is being charged as a prior offender in the case.

Which is faster — an express line with multiple shoppers or a regular line with one shopper who has a large basket? That question has obsessed California math teacher Dan Meyer for years. "It's my Da Vinci Code," he says on his blog (http://blog.mrmeyer.com/?p=4646). What complicates the problem is that "there are easily a dozen variables affecting the line speed that have nothing to do with the number of customers in each line or the number of items in their baskets," he writes.

I'm with Emma888. It doesn't work on the acne as such, but the mark that the acne leaves behind are gonners with this super cream.:-)
Get a tissue and squeeze out the yellow stuff. ( only when the head goes white/yellow) Wait until it goes down (usually takes on day; two at most) and when there is only a mark/red spot, put the cream on, wait a couple hours (I leave it over night) then your spot will have gone. If you use to pick at it, it still I'll heal, but may take a little longer. Also, apply about 1/2 - 1mm of sudocrem, I've been doing this for two days (I used to pick the scab), and my face is clear. Hope it works XXX Georgia:-)
I have sudocrem on my spots for as long as I can remember, but it does not cure or prevent the acne at all. I use it on my angry red spots and blend it in to try to lessen the look of them but it usually just leaves me with a white stain. Good for spots that have been picked at or have bled, but I wouldn't use it as a treatment.
I was told this really helps a lot with acne wounds, but because mine tended to scab, it wasn't suitable to use because this really dries out the skin. But, it is very effective in lightening the skin once the wound is gone and it has left only redness on the face. As soon as I noticed that, I tried using it on a reddish area and it cleared up during the night, no more redness!
I've suffered with moderate acne on my face and chest for the past 15 years. Although the severity has lessened over time, I've only really got it under control in the past 6 months with sudocrem and a super gentle consistent routine.
I cleanse with cetaphil and warm water at night, then apply a thin layer of sudocrem before bed. As others have said it will leave white marks on your pillow so I have white pillowcases :)
Sudocrem is no miracle product (if there even is such a thing) but my skin has improved a lot since I started this routine 6 months ago. Breakouts have reduced to a couple of angry spots here and there and some very small whiteheads which is the best I can remember.
It might not be for everyone and for me it took a while to see any difference but it certainly works for me. Worth a try!
Sudocrem is honestly a quick fix, and not very effective at all for treating larger areas of pimples.
My friend suggested I try it when I started getting spots around my chin. It soothed the area and reduced the size of the spots for about a couple of days, but it didn't seem to diminish the acne or stop other spots from forming. It is also very thick, and can leave white patches if not washed off properly (it takes more than water to wash Sudocrem off). My skin was not able to breathe with this on, and due to the lack of improvement, I decided to stop using it.
It is also targeted towards other skin problems, such as eczema and bed rashes. It is not solely for acne, and will only soothe the area for a short period. I recommend this product to anybody who may suffer from the odd one or two spots, rather than acne. A cream derived specially for acne is better for those who wish to treat areas of stubborn spots.
It's useful if you have a specific area that is very inflamed, but generally I find it much to thick, and quite drying with repeated use.
Sudocrem is great for healing large, red angry spots as it tends to make them less sore. So many other spot treatements have just dried out and damaged my skin so its great that I don't need to worry about that with sudocrem.
I used Sudocrem quite extensively during my battle with acne and it definitely come in handy.
Whenever I'd squeeze a spot, I'd dab a little on the spot and it would accelerate the healing process and also help prevent scabbing.
I also found Sudocrem helped reduce redness while on The Regimen. I would add a layer of Sudocrem before bed, on top of my moisturizer and in the morning, my face would be less red, vs having not used it.
Sudocrem can be a little drying, so it's important to moisturize well prior to application on your whole face.
This product will not block your pores.
I find that used at night in a relatively thick layer on the face over 3-4 days really helps to dry out my oily areas and reduce redness, and I've been using this for things like nappy rash etc since I was 2 or 3.
After reading the reviews of this online I though I'd give it a go for my chest acne & back as it's so cheap. Unfortunately it did absolutely nothing for me :-( At first I did think it was reducing the redness of the spots & causing them to dry out but it turns out it was just the whiteness of it. Worth a try though maybe!

HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Hutchinson Police want to know if there is any connection between the robberies of two Dillons stores in Wichita and the robbery of the Dillons at 14th and Main on March 11.
Police say they will be in touch with Wichita detectives about the two crimes. The latest involved the Dillons store at 13415 W. Maple on Saturday. The Dillons at 3707 N. Woodlawn was robbed April 6. In all three cases a white male approached a cashier and demanded money, indicating he had a gun. While the man in the Hutchinson robbery fled on foot, the suspect in the two Wichita cases got away in a white four-door vehicle.

PARK CITY, Utah - Hindsight is always 20/20, especially when you're talking about teaching kids to ski. Like a lot of parents who love to ski, I figured I could teach my children myself. And I tried. But looking back now, I wish I'd put them in group lessons much sooner, when they were 6 or 7, blank slates waiting to be written on.
It took me a while to realize that when your kids are skiing the slopes with an enthusiastic young instructor - slip-sliding through the trees, puffing fresh air, whooping and hollering and pretending small bumps are Olympic obstacles - they'll learn in a hurry, and they'll love it, too. As in any sport, an inspiring, encouraging coach and a week on the slopes teamed up with other kids is a winning combination.

All psychiatrist Loren Crabtree wanted to do was help one patient succeed after discharge from a mental hospital in 1982.
Convinced the man would "lose his game" if he went home, Crabtree tried to find him a community program. When he learned the wait would be more than a year, he set the man up in an apartment and found him a roommate.
Project Transition, which now serves 180 seriously mentally ill "members," was born. Those members live in apartment complexes in Philadelphia, Montgomery, Bucks, and Berks Counties. The staff, who live elsewhere, do their work from apartments in the same complexes.

The Jones Hovercraft Snowboard does just that in deep snow -- hover -- but this stick is more than a floaty, surfy ride. Designed for women that charge the sickest lines on the mountain, and who aren't afraid to deal with some "variable" conditions to get first tracks. The Jones Hovercraft Snowboard features compact dimensions that keep the board maneuverable in tight chutes or trees but still let it float like a demon once you find that untracked stash.
Directional Rocker - Hovercraft Camber underfoot with a long, gradual tip rocker and slight tail rocker. The rockered nose helps float in powder and improves maneuverability, while camber underfoot aids edgehold. Mild tail rocker lets you choose the turn shape that fits the occasion.
Flex Rating: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) Medium-stiff flex for immediate response and loads of control. Less forgiving but is ready to damage rails, kickers, and anything else you toss at it. Well-rounded flex for all-mountain excursions.
Directional Shape
Blunt Nose "How a board glides in powder, crust, corn, or any snow condition more then an inch deep is dictated by its front contact point and just past it. Next time you are in soft snow, watch how much snow comes over the corner of the nose near the contact point. The billowing snow means you are plowing through it which is obviously slowing you down. By adding a blunt nose, you get the float benefits of a much longer board tip without the added length or swing weight." - Jeremy Jones
Progressive Sidecut At the far ends of the sidecut, the radius is incrementally increased as the edge reaches the contact point. Gradually decreasing the side cut radius towards the contact point delivers smoother turn initiation and exit as the edge tracks in and out of the snow with a less abrupt transition.
Swallow Tail Mild swallow tail lets the nose of the board float higher in powder.
Jones Classic Core Laminated, multi-density core of select hardwoods for performance and durability.
Carbon Stringers Carbon stringers add torsional stiffness for improved response and increased pop. The carbon layer keeps the flex profile consistent for the lifetime of the board.
Biax Fiberglass Biax laminate consists of fiberglass that is braided in two directions. The fibers are braided vertically at 90 degrees. This ensures a torsional flex that is more evenly distributed throughout the snowboard. For you, this translates to a snowboard that is easy to handle and jib friendly.
Recycled ABS Sidewalls Jones is in it for the long haul, and with sustainability in mind they use only recycled plastic for their sidewalls.
Sintered 7000 Series Base Sintered bases contain tiny pores in the structure that hold wax better and result in the fastest running surface known to humankind; Jones' 7000 series bases have added carbon to add speed.
Belt Ground Finish Smooth a flat right from the factory.
Die-Cut Base Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.
Mellow Magne-Traction™ A tiny wave in the edge under your feet results in a catch-free ride with bomber edgehold on any snow surface. "Magne-Traction™ is a key ingredient for rockered board designs. Adding rocker to your board makes it glide more smoothly, but it makes it harder to really lock into your turns and hold a solid edge. Magne-Traction™ is crucial to offset the drift typical of rocker flex patterns." - Jeremy Jones.
Oversized Recycled Edges Recycled, thicker steel reinforces the snowboard's edges to give you exceptional impact resistance and improved production sustainability.
Bamboo Topsheet with Burned-in Graphics Branded!
Burned-in Graphics What's better than eco-friendly ink topsheets? No-ink topsheets, of course - Jone's burns the graphic into the topsheet for this board!
One Ball Jay BIO Wax Factory waxed and ready to shred right out of the shop with One Ball Jay BIO wax.
Factory Tuned Factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can charge from run one without worrying about hookiness.
Wrap Tip Construction Full wood core to the tip with the ABS sidewall wrapping all the way around the tip for added response and durability.

Both WWE RAW and Game 4 of the Western Conference finals of the NBA Playoffs were both booked for the same night. Vince McMahon wasn't backing down and neither were the Nuggets.
Denver's NBA team waited over a decade for them to make it this far and NBA fans weren't going to let WWE ruin their moment. McMahon and WWE had already booked the arena for this night and was offered venues to hold the RAW the likes of Los Angeles' Staples Center and the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Vince McMahon is a stubborn as they come and made one heck of a decision.
Both WWE RAW and the Nuggets game would be held in Pepsi Center at the same time!
There was no backing down.
McMahon couldn't be outdone by the NBA, so RAW was turned into a Supershow as every WWE superstar was ordered to be in attendance at Pepsi Center.

Nearly $50,000 In Fines Following Fatal Worksite Accident
REHOBOTH BEACH, Del. -- Failure to protect workers from cave-in hazards at a Rehoboth Beach work site may cost Felton-based Marvel Contracting, Inc. $49,500 in penalties according to citations issued today by the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
OSHA initiated its inspection following an April 5 accident that killed a 22-year old pipe layer, William Harris II, when a portion of an unprotected trench collapsed. Marvel Contracting was installing storm drain piping at the Kinsale Glen Development when the fatality occurred.
"Marvel Contracting failed to take appropriate action to protect workers in the trench," said Lacy Sutton, area director in the OSHA Wilmington office. "Excavation walls can collapse quickly and without warning. Special precautions need to be taken to prevent cave-ins."
The company received one willful citation with a proposed penalty of $35,000 for failing to provide workers with adequate cave-in protection, such as shoring or properly sloped excavation walls.
Serious violations, with proposed penalties totaling $14,500, were also issued for the company's failure to remove damaged slings (used to hoist materials); allowing employees to operate a damaged excavator; failure to keep materials or equipment at least two feet from the edge of excavations; failure to conduct required daily inspections of excavations and adjacent areas for evidence of hazardous conditions and failure to provide job-specific safety and health instructions to employees.
OSHA defines a willful violation as one committed with an intentional disregard of, or plain indifference to, the requirements of the OSH Act and regulations. A serious violation is one where there is a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm could result and that the employer knew or should have known of the hazard.
The company has 15 working days to contest the citations and proposed penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
The inspection was conducted by the Wilmington area office, Caleb Boggs Federal Building, 844 North King Street, Room 2209, Wilmington, De. 19801. Telephone: (302) 573-6518.
