K+12 - To use the mother tongue as medium of instruction
Wednesday, 30 May 2012 08:44
This school year marks a new era in the Philippine educational system with basic education extended by two years and the use of the mother tongue medium of instruction.
In the Davao region, teachers are ready to implement the enhanced basic education curriculum or K+12 which mandates that in Kindergarten, Grade 1, 2 and 3, they will use the Cebuano Visayan dialect or Sinibuanong Binisaya.
This, according to Davao City Schools Division Superintendent Helen D. Paguican in a press conference at the Department of Education (DepEd) 11 office last Monday.
She said teachers will use the mother tongue or the first language of the child at home, and the region's DepEd adopted the Sinibuanong Binisaya as it is the dominant first language here.
Students will only learn 20 alphabets in the dialect; five vowels and 15 consonants.
"They will be taught how to read and write in the dialect so that they can understand what the teacher is saying and can answer questions critically," she continued, adding that this teaching approach will develop their oral language competence, cognitive and reasoning skills.
Further, Susana Teresa B. Estigoy, DepEd 11 regional director, said the use of the mother tongue in educational instruction is a result of many years of research.
With the new curriculum of K+12, Grade 1 students will read and write Cebuano in the first grading; start oral Filipino in the second grading; can already read Filipino in the third and fourth grading. Students will start literacy in English in Grade 2.
A total of 3,754 Grade 1 teachers, and 2,766 Grade 7 teachers have been trained and are ready to start the implementation of K+12 come June 4.
There are no textbooks published for the new curriculum yet, however, the DepEd has developed materials as learning guides.
"This is the start of K+12 implementation, so the glitches will be ironed out. We just have to start somewhere. If not now, then when?" Paguican said. [Lorie A. Cascaro]

Are Dems Overreaching On Climate Legislation
Kimberley Strassel has a good article in today's WSJ about what she sees as Democrats overreaching on climate legislation.
For one, they seem to be misreading the public's support for the radical type legislation that Nancy Pelosi and Henry Waxman favor. Since the recession has hit, people are much less concerned about the environmental impact of certain industries and much more concerned about preserving the jobs they provide.
But it is more than that – the Democratic leadership seems to be misreading the political tea-leaves as well:
To listen to Congressman Jim Matheson is something else. During opening statements, the Utah Democrat detailed 14 big problems he had with the bill, and told me later that if he hadn't been limited to five minutes, "I might have had more." Mr. Matheson is one of about 10 moderate committee Democrats who are less than thrilled with the Waxman climate extravaganza, and who may yet stymie one of Barack Obama's signature issues. If so, the president can thank Democratic liberals, who are engaging in one of their first big cases of overreach.
Not that you couldn't see this coming even last year, when Speaker Nancy Pelosi engineered her coup against former Energy chairman John Dingell. House greens had been boiling over the Michigan veteran's cautious approach to climate-legislation. Mr. Dingell's mistake was understanding that when it comes to energy legislation, the divides aren't among parties, but among regions. Design a bill that socks it to all those manufacturing, oil-producing, coal-producing, coal-using states, and say goodbye to the very Democrats necessary to pass that bill.
Of course, that's precisely what the Waxman's of the party intend to do. As Strassel notes, Pelosi engineered the replacement of Dingell with Waxman precisely to push the more radical agenda.
And 2010 looms:
There's Mr. Matheson, chair of the Blue Dog energy task force, who has made a political career championing energy diversity and his state's fossil fuels, and who understands Utah is mostly reliant on coal for its electricity needs. He says he sees several ways this bill could result in a huge "income transfer" from his state to those less fossil-fuel dependent. Indiana Democrat Baron Hill has a similar problem; not only does his district rely on coal, it is home to coal miners. Rick Boucher, who represents the coal-fields of South Virginia, knows the feeling.
Or consider Texas's Gene Green and Charles Gonzalez, or Louisiana's Charlie Melancon, oil-patch Dems all, whose home-district refineries would be taxed from every which way by the bill. Mr. Dingell remains protective of his district's struggling auto workers, which would be further incapacitated by the bill. Pennsylvania's Mike Doyle won't easily throw his home-state steel industry over a cliff.
Add in the fact that a number of these Democrats hail from districts that could just as easily be in Republicans' hands. They aren't eager to explain to their blue-collar constituents the costs of indulging Mrs. Pelosi's San Francisco environmentalists. Remember 1993, when President Bill Clinton proposed an energy tax on BTUs? The House swallowed hard and passed the legislation, only to have Senate Democrats kill it; a year later, Newt Gingrich was in charge. With Senate Democrats already backing away from the Obama cap-and-trade plans, at least a few House Dems are reluctant to walk the plank.
Never mind that passage of this bill would most likely retard economic recovery for the foreseeable future, it might also begin to flip the House politically when its consequences are made clear to the public. Waxman and his allies are attempting to poltically arm-twist and bribe enough Democrats to push this through the House, but it apparently faces tough sledding in the Senate, even with a filibuster-proof majority in the offing.
How this ends up is anyone's guess, but as strange as it sounds, the recession is our best friend in this case. Cap and trade would be disasterous now – not that it wouldn't be even in a strong economy. And there seems to be building support on both sides to stop it. What you have to hope is that somehow it will then be delayed enough that the mix in Congress changes to the point that the Dem's radical environmental policy ends up being DOA.
Today's Biggest Non-Surprise
It's certainly a big political story because it almost assures a filibuster proof majority in the Senate for the Democrats. But if anyone is particularly surprised by Arlen Specter switching parties at this time, I'd have to say you're not much of a observer of politics.
Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter will switch his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat and announced today that he will run in 2010 as a Democrat, according to a statement he released this morning.
Specter blames his move on the GOP no longer being the "big tent" party he was a part of in the '80s. But in fact, it is because he's assured of losing in the Republican primary in 2010 while if he runs as a Democrat incumbent, he will most likely not have any real primary opposition. Pat Toomey, the Republican, almost beat Specter the last time out. Those considering a run as a Democrat can most likely be talked out of it if Specter switches (and that was probably part of the deal).
I'm sure Specter will have all sorts of claims of principled reasons why he is leaving the GOP when he meets the press later. But in fact, he's never seemed to have any foundational principle except that which could be described as "doing what is necessary to gain and maintain power." And, what you're seeing now is a politician with his finger firmly in the air gaging which party offers him the least resistance and best opportunity to retain his seat – and that certainly isn't the GOP.
Here's to Arlen Specter getting creamed in 2010.
Smearing Glenn Beck
In what I can only surmise is the latest talking point to emerge from JournoList, Glenn Beck has replaced Rush Limbaugh asthe token leader of the Republican Party, against whom all manner of mud will be slung. Reminiscent of the Clinton years, talk radio hosts are being assailed as the progenitors of hate, and even being blamed for recent shootings such as that in Pittsburgh. All of this nonsense, of course, but the smears will be cast about by lefty cohorts just the same.
The most recent offering is from Michael A. Cohen writing at Politico, entitled "Extremist rhetoric won't rebuild the GOP":
Watching Fox News' new sensation Glenn Beck is not for the faint of heart. It is a disquieting entree into the feverish mind of a conspiracy theorist who believes, among other things, that the government wants to remotely control our thermostats, that the relaxing of the ban on stem cell research — as well as efforts to prevent global warming — is reminiscent of Nazism, that the Federal Emergency Management Agency might be setting up concentration camps and, finally, that the country is on the path to socialism or possibly fascism but definitely some "-ism" that should be avoided.
Frankly, that is all you really need to read of Mr. Cohen's piece to understand what he is on about. The short version is that rightwing leader, Glenn Beck, is spreading dangerous conspiracy theories that hurt the GOP and the nation. The problem, as always, is that the charges just aren't true.
Taking them one by one from the cited paragraph, here is what Cohen asserts are the product of "the feverish mind of a conspiracy theorist", and why his assertions are false:
(1) "the government wants to remotely control our thermostats"
I don't know to which Beck comments Cohen is referring, but the fact is that the California government proposed exactly such a law:
Next year in California, state regulators are likely to have the emergency power to control individual thermostats, sending temperatures up or down through a radio-controlled device that will be required in new or substantially modified houses and buildings to manage electricity shortages.
The proposed rules are contained in a document circulated by the California Energy Commission, which for more than three decades has set state energy efficiency standards for home appliances, like water heaters, air conditioners and refrigerators. The changes would allow utilities to adjust customers' preset temperatures when the price of electricity is soaring. Customers could override the utilities' suggested temperatures. But in emergencies, the utilities could override customers' wishes.
Clearly, it takes no "feverish mind" to grasp the fact that such programs are being considered.
(2) "the relaxing of the ban on stem cell research — as well as efforts to prevent global warming — is reminiscent of Nazism"
Well that does sound pretty bad. At least, until you track down what Beck actually said. In an interview with Professor Robert George of Princeton University, Beck rehashed why allowing progressive political interests to be in charge of steering "science" in the name of the public good was not necessarily desirable:
GLENN: I tell you, it's so disturbing. I'm getting a lot of heat today because yesterday on television I talked about this and I said, you know, it was the progressives and the scientists that brought us eugenics. The idea that science — if evolution is true, then science should be able to help it along, and it was the guys in the white jackets. It was the scientists and the doctors that brought us the horrors of eugenics and it's because —
PROFESSOR GEORGE: Glenn, can I fill you in a little bit? Because you are absolutely right. Let me tell you a little bit of the history. It's fascinating. Those guys in white coats were not even during the Nazi period. These weren't guys working for the Nazis. This was years before the Nazis during the Weimar Republic.
GLENN: It was here.
PROFESSOR GEORGE: When progressive, as they were then called, doctors and lawyers and others, decided that there were some lives unworthy of life. And two scholars, a guy named Bending and a guy named Hoka (ph) who were not Nazis who were opposed to the Nazi federy and so forth, they saw them as really sort of lower class thugs. But these two guys, a law professor and a medical professor, wrote a book called Lebens unwürdig von Leben, life unworthy of life which was a roadmap for taking the life destroying the lives of retarded people, people regarded as inferior because of their low intelligence or physical impairment or so forth. That was the roadmap. It was before the Nazis. You are 100% right.
GLENN: And a lot of this stuff, I mean, started here originally, did it not? Didn't some of the original thinking —
PROFESSOR GEORGE: Well, it didn't just begin in Germany. It's certainly true that there was a strong eugenics here among the elite, among the progressive, the people who regarded themselves as the forward thinkers. Just the name, one figure from my own field of philosophy of law, Oliver Wendell Holmes, the great American jurist and philosopher and eventually Supreme Court justice who was with the program entirely of eugenics before the Nazis gave it a bad name. So it was here in America just as it was in Germany.
GLENN: So here's what I'm afraid of and, you know, call me crazy, but whenever you unplug from ethics and you put science at the top and then you surround it with a bunch of progressive elitists, that usually doesn't spell, you know, spell out anything that's good.
With respect to the dangers of separating ethics and embryonic stem cell research, the conversation also included this tidbit:
GLENN: The guy who started embryonic stem cell research, I heard a quote from him yesterday, said if you haven't — if this whole concept of research on embryos hasn't given you pause, then you haven't thought about it enough.
PROFESSOR GEORGE: Oh, yes, that's Jamie Thompson you are quoting who was the first person to isolate human embryonic stem cells. He is a research scientist at the University of Wisconsin. And he said that in explaining why he had done path-breaking work, very important pioneering work to create alternative sources of pluripotent stem cells, pluripotent just means like embryonic stem cells, cells that are able to be manipulated to become any sort of cell tissue so they would be very useful in regenerative medicine if all things work out. But Thompson was explaining why he went down another path and created a technology for which he's likely to win the Nobel Prize called induced pluripotent stem cells which can be created without using embryos or destroying embryos or killing embryos. So yes, even somebody like Thompson recognizes that there's a huge ethical issue here. But President Obama's just swept past it, just swept past it.
To be fair, whenever Nazism or fascism enters the fray, noses are sure to get bent out of shape and even clearly expressed thoughts will be missed. However, as easily surmised from the snippets of conversation above (much less the whole thing), it's quite clear that Beck was not comparing stem cell research to Nazism, but instead warning against allowing progressive scientists to drive the debate without regard for the ethical issues. By referencing an historical consequence of blindly following such advice, Beck is simply making a useful comparison to illuminate his point. Nowhere does he compare stem cell research to Nazism.
(3) "the Federal Emergency Management Agency might be setting up concentration camps"
Of all the accusations leveled at Beck by Mr. Cohen, this is the most egregiously false. In my opinion, the charge would fairly support a suit for defamation against Cohen, even under the heightened "actual malice" standard set forth in New York Times, Co. v. Sullivan. Far from asserting that FEMA was setting up concentration camps, Beck actively and thoroughly debunked the conspiracy theory [HT: Allahpundit]:
How Cohen could make the assertion he did is simply bewildering. Even the barest amount of research would have shown how wrong he was. If nothing else, Cohen should immediately retract his claim and apologize to Beck.
(4) "the country is on the path to socialism or possibly fascism but definitely some "-ism" that should be avoided."
After delving into pure libel, Cohen quickly steers into idiocy. The assertion here is that Beck's opinion that the Obama administration policies are grounded in statist/collectivist ideology is a conspiracy theory. Missing from Cohen's analysis is any mention of the last eight years of BusHitler! droning. Nor is there any explanation as to how an opinion regarding the underlying ideology of the President's governing philosophy could be a conspiracy theory. Typical of liberals nowadays, Cohen simply likens any mention of similarities between Obama's agenda and actual socialist/fascist/statist policies as fear-mongering worthy of no examination, and what's wrong with socialism anyway? Apparently ignorance of recent events is not Cohen's only forte, as he is also seemingly unaware of anything that has happened over the last century or so.
Regardless of how one might feel about Glenn Beck, and whether you agree with him or not, he is being unfairly smeared by Mr. Cohen. The sorts of attacks set forth above will only broaden in scope unless confronted, and they will be used to discredit any similar veins of thought no matter how tangential to Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, or any other strawman leader the left chooses to hang around the necks of those opposed to statist politics. Hit these rhetorical bullies in their lying collectivist mouths now, or face the unfortunate consequences of letting them drive the agenda and control the language of the debate.
Obama's Budget Blueprint Passes In Congress
Yeah, yeah, I know, you're tired of "budget talk". Well too bad – this is extremely important stuff. It's not just about the amount of money, which is monstrous, but the agenda it puts into place:
Congressional Democrats overwhelmingly embraced President Obama's ambitious and expensive agenda for the nation yesterday, endorsing a $3.5 trillion spending plan that sets the stage for the president to pursue his most far-reaching priorities.
Voting along party lines, the House and Senate approved budget blueprints that would trim Obama's spending proposals for the fiscal year that begins in October and curtail his plans to cut taxes. The blueprints, however, would permit work to begin on the central goals of Obama's presidency: an expansion of health-care coverage for the uninsured, more money for college loans and a cap-and-trade system to reduce gases that contribute to global warming.
These are the paving stones for the road to hell and they've now been authorized by the Congress. Of course this is just the blueprint. The authorization of the funds will come in separate appropriation bills. And you had better believe Democrats are going to try to use every procedural trick in the book to ease their passage.
Just to leave you with the appropriate chill up your back, I leave you with an example of what is to come:
Sen. Benjamin L. Cardin (D-Md.) called cap-and-trade "the most significant revenue-generating proposal of our time," and said it would be difficult to pass without reconciliation because Democrats would be forced to accommodate a handful of Republicans as they did in the debate over the president's stimulus package.
And when it comes to "revenue-generating", the Democrats want nothing standing in their way, especially a few Republicans. The third wave of liberalism (New Deal, Great Society and now the Raw Deal) is afoot.
The Republican Alternative Budget
It can be summed up in one sentence: They still don't get it.
Tax cuts are great, but they're not real tax cuts unless there's a commensurate cut in spending. If there's no cut in spending, they're simply taxes which are being deferred. And that is precisely what the Republicans offer in their alternative. Long on tax cuts and long on spending. Their only claim to fame is they don't spend as much as the Obama budget. Well, you'd have to be insane to spend as much as the Obama budget, but claiming that your plan is better because you spend less isn't much of a recommendation.
Discretionary Spending. The budget gives priority to the Federal Government's most important obligations, national defense and veterans' benefits. All other appropriated spending is level-funded for fiscal years 2010-14, and then increased at a moderate rate through 2019. The final allocation of these and other amounts will be determined by the Committee on Appropriations.
As long as we're running a deficit, we can't afford "increased spending" even at a "moderate rate". What part of that can't these people seem to get through their heads? Of course, that means they have to bring the bad news to the people that spending for government provided goodies isn't going to go up, and, in fact, may go down. And the people haven't exactly been kind to those who do so. Talking about it is one thing, but unfortunately actually doing it is detrimental to a politician's career. So their cowardice is understandable if still unacceptable (given their rhetoric)
Mandatory Spending. Total mandatory spending increases by an average of 3.9 percent per year for the next 10 years. This is slightly slower growth than projected in the Congressional Budget Office baseline and the Obama/Democratic budget. It provides for a sustainable growth rate to assure the viability of these programs in the future.
Here is the budget killer – mandatory spending. And what to the Republicans propose? Growing it at almost 4% a year. The inflation rate is what? Well, even now, it certainly isn't 4%. And while it may rise, you can't assume that. So this does precisely what they claim their budget does:
To Control the Nation's Debts. It halts the borrow-and-spend philosophy that brought about today's economic problems, and puts a stop to heaping ever-growing debts on future generations.
It does not end the "borrow-and-spend philosophy" at all. It merely slows the rate of borrow-and-spend. The claim is nonsense on a stick.
And to cap it all off, they buy into the premise of some sort of universal or nationalized health care.
To Fulfill the Mission of Health and Retirement Security. The budget reforms the health care marketplace by making quality coverage affordable and accessible for every American regardless of pre-existing health conditions. It reinforces the decision-making of patients and their doctors, not government bureaucrats; and it reforms Medicare and Medicaid to make them sustainable. The budget also advances the cause of strengthening Social Security.
So instead of buttressing and supporting the concept of private health care and less government intrusion, the Republicans again commit to the concept of government involvement, but just not at the level of the Democrats. And they also want us to believe this isn't going to cost much as well.
Disappointing is a mild word for what I see in their proposals. They're again Democrat lite, buying into all the programs just claiming theirs doesn't spend as much, and again proposing tax deferral as "tax cuts", completely ignoring the need to cut spending to make those deferrals actual and permanent cuts.
No wonder they put it out on April 1st.
[My latest Examiner.com article]
Fact Checking Obama
Believe it or not, it was AP which undertook this job. And although superficial, it was interesting to see the agency actually attempt some objectivity. That said, the one that really stands out as almost laugh outloud funny was where Obama did a little chiding of the Republicans:
First of all, I suspect that some of those Republican critics have a short memory, because, as I recall, I'm inheriting a $1.3 trillion deficit, annual deficit, from them.
Well, first of all, only Congress can appropriate money and for the last two years, when that 1.3 trillion was pile up, it was appropriated by a Democratic Congress.
Yes, Paulson rolled them and they ran around like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off – and that includes Republicans – but trying to lay this deficit solely at the feet of the Republicans is simply laughable.
Laughable point two came when Obama claimed "In this budget, we have made the tough choices necessary to cut our deficit in half by the end of my first term even under the most pessimistic estimates."
Well, that's just not true. The "most pessimistic estimates" (in this case the CBO) essentially disagree with his point.
The Congressional Budget Office forecasts that Obama's spending plan would leave a deficit of $672 billion by the end of 2013. Explaining the differences between his projections and CBO's, Obama said his administration projects a higher growth rate.
It is also important to understand that "cutting the deficit in half" is a mask for the fact that it means he'll still be running up a record deficit of over 600 billion a year. That is not progress in deficit reduction or "fiscally responsible" government. But it sounds good when thrown out there in a sound bite. Here, maybe this will help make the point:
As you can see, both the most "pessimistic" and his own projections see huge deficits projected well into the future – and, as many economists have said, unsustainable deficits.
So let's get a few facts straight concerning spending and deficits then and now:
-President Bush expanded the federal budget by a historic $700 billion through 2008. President Obama would add another $1 trillion.
-President Bush began a string of expensive financial bailouts. President Obama is accelerating that course.
-President Bush created a Medicare drug entitlement that will cost an estimated $800 billion in its first decade. President Obama has proposed a $634 billion down payment on a new govern ment health care fund.
-President Bush increased federal education spending 58 percent faster than inflation. President Obama would double it.
-President Bush became the first President to spend 3 percent of GDP on federal antipoverty programs. President Obama has already in creased this spending by 20 percent.
-President Bush tilted the income tax burden more toward upper-income taxpayers. President Obama would continue that trend.
-President Bush presided over a $2.5 trillion increase in the public debt through 2008. Setting aside 2009 (for which Presidents Bush and Obama share responsibility for an additional $2.6 trillion in public debt), President Obama's budget would add $4.9 trillion in public debt from the beginning of 2010 through 2016.
Yes, Bush did contribute to an expanded deficit. But Obama's plans expand it beyond anything Bush did and it continues the spending well into the future. Obama's budget is the blueprint for a huge and unsustainable expansion of government over the next decade. What you see going on now is all Obama.
And don't let him get away with pretending otherwise.
And Republicans Wonder Why They're In The Wilderness
Don't buy or own any property in Mississippi, at least not while Republican Governor Haley Barbour is in the Governor's mansion:
Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour says he's vetoing a bill that would limit the use of eminent domain because it would hurt the state's ability to lure economic development projects.
The bill would've prevented the government from taking land for private projects. Barbour said Monday eminent domain was needed to lure projects such as the Nissan vehicle plant in Canton and the Toyota plant in north Mississippi.
And who is on the side of private property?
The bill was filed by Rep. Ed Blackmon, a Democrat from Canton. An attempt to override veto would have to start in the House, where Blackmon is head of the Judiciary A Committee.
Sen. Eric Powell, a Democrat from Corinth, said he voted for the bill and he doesn't intend to change his vote.
Amazing. What in the hell happened to individual rights and small and less intrusive government among Republicans? And, at least in Mississippi, why are they ceding the fight to Democrats?
Is it any wonder the GOP is losing support at a dizzying rate? With "Republicans" like Barbour, the GOP doesn't need any enemies.
Quote Of The Day
Disgust is a bi-partisan concept. Michael Goodwin again:
Ronald Reagan's famous line that "government is the problem" kept going through my head as the AIG hearing demonstrated the dangers of Washington's role in the economy. The very people, Republicans and Democrats alike, who can't balance America's budget now claim the expertise to run banks, insurance companies and automakers.
If we let them, we're dumber than they are.
Put The Race Card Away, Please
Mark Sanford, the governor of South Carolina, said this the other day about the possible effects of all of the spending the Obama administration was doing and planning:
"What you're doing is buying into the notion that if we just print some more money that we don't have, send it to different states — we'll create jobs," Sanford said. "If that's the case, why isn't Zimbabwe a rich place?… Why isn't Zimbabwe just an incredibly prosperous place. 'Cause they're printing money they don't have and sending it around to their different — I don't know the towns in Zimbabwe but that same logic is being applied there with little effect."
A little oversimplistic, but this is "sound bite nation" so you have to condense. In effect his point is true to the extent it goes, and the example is a good and valid one, since Zimbabwe is printing money as fast as it can add zeroes to its demonimations. By now, the hyper-inflation it is undergoing from doing so should be well known to people versed in current affairs.
Unless, of course, you want to make a racial thing out of it. Rep. James Clyburn, Democratic Majority Whip, reacts to Sanford's lesson and example of Zimbabwe:
"For him to compare the president of this country to Mugabe. … It's just beyond the pale," said Clyburn, who has sparred with Sanford over the Republican's refusal to accept all the state's stimulus funding.
"I'm sure he would not say that, but how did he get to Zimbabwe? What took the man to Zimbabwe? Someone should ask him if that's really the best comparison. … How can he compare this country's situation to Zimbabwe?"
Of course the "how" is fairly simple – if what is being touted as a solution here and was touted as a solution there, then Zimbabwe should be in great economic shape right now. But Clyburn would rather make a racial thing out of it. Obviously Sanford could have used Wiemar Germany of the '30s, but it isn't as relevant today as the case of Zimbabwe. And, he could have also used Venezuela. But Venezuela isn't quite the basket case Zimbabwe is. Nope, in terms of a current example of what might happen, in terms of hyper-inflation from artificially pumping up he money supply, Zimbabwe is as good as it gets.
And besides:
"Rep. Clyburn always plays the race card," shot back Sanford spokesman Joel Sawyer, who said his boss has also compared the stimulus to failed government policies in Germany and Argentina. "This policy will result in hyper-infaltion. … [Clyburn] is ripping off the people he purports to represent."
Round 2 to follow.
Easy come, easy go
Today, Rep. Mike Pence and Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, the Chair and Vice Chair of the House Republican Conference, led a blogger conference call. The representatives stayed on point throughout the call:
- On the economy generally and on the Democrats' budget proposal specifically, they repeatedly said the Democrats are spending, borrowing and taxing too much.
- They hammered on the Democrats' proposal as bad for families and small businesses, including family farms. They emphasized the role of small businesses in job creation.
- They said they believed in free markets, fiscal restraint and tax relief as the keys to growth.
- To that effect, they said Senate and House Republicans would be cooperating closely to promote those messages over the next several weeks and then unveil an alternative budget proposal of their own, which they promise will be a bold, clear contrast with that of the Democrats.
I expected something along these lines, and I don't object to the sentiment or disagree with their diagnosis of the Democrats' budget. They've identified what's wrong with the Democrats' plan, they've developed a strategy for responding with their own alternative, and they want to get everyone on record as either supporting the Democrats' messy bill or the ideal Republican vision.
The first question went to Quin Hillyer over at AmSpec, who asked how unified we can expect the GOP response to be if a Republican leader like Lamar Alexander broke to vote for the omnibus spending bill. Pence acknowledged that he and Sen. Alexander had a difference of opinion on that one, but hastened to add that Sen. Alexander had voted for all the limiting amendments and had voted against the stimulus, etc.
For my part, I asked the representatives why, in light of Republicans' so-far unsuccessful attempts to bring "clean" Republican versions of bills to the floor for debate, their alternative budget would be different.
Rep. Pence answered that Republicans would be given the opportunity on this one. The Republican House leadership is working closely with the budget committee, and specifically with Rep. Paul Ryan, the ranking Republican on that committee. There are some limitations on how quickly they can move their alternative and get a CBO estimate done on it, but they're going to use the interim to expose problems with the Democrats' budget before unveiling their alternative.
Rep. Morris Rodgers said that it was important that it goes to the House floor for debate, and that they wanted the difference in approach to be clear to the American people, too.
As I said earlier, this is about what I expected – when your party is some 70 seats down in the House and retains only the most meager leverage in the Senate, having lost all credibility, you need to remind people that you at least remember what a conservative is supposed to want.
I just hope that's not all they have in their playbook. It's much easier to present a principled image when you're out of power and have no sway over whether a given bill will pass.
Assurances that the GOP will remain so principled when they regain a measure of power won't carry a lot of weight without some kind of binding commitments – changing the structure and practices of the party rather than the short-term tactics. After all, misbehavior that receded smoothly when the majority last changed hands can come back just as readily. Easy come, easy go.

"Lose yourself in spaciousness and find your true self"
– The Radiance Sutras; Sutra 53//76
Welcome to SamSpaces
Samspaces is a mentoring service and comprehensive resource offering a space for solidarity and support to patients as they near the end of their cancer treatment and during their recovery.
Life is a step-by-step process after cancer. I have realised that the concept of Space is hugely important. Space to heal, love, learn, recover – and just to 'be'. The effects of any treatment can be far reaching, affecting us physically, mentally and emotionally. Patients will often have that 'wake up call' and naturally become more proactive in changing their lifestyle so as to prevent any further diagnosis. It is a great time to embrace radical and positive change. By being pro active we can find amazing ways to stay healthy and help our wellbeing. This a space for you to feel encouraged, supported and informed. We are all individual with different needs and ways of healing.
What you will find on SamsSpaces
SamSpace is a fresh start, a helping hand in recovery, a step at a time, on all levels. I describe the ways I can help more on A Space to Shine.
The original SamSpace blog is my story of treatment and recovery. The new blog reviews a wide spectrum of practical things available that can help our wellbeing during cancer treatment and recovery. Bouncing back after illness is a gradual process but it can also be a time to grow and discover new ways of practically helping ourselves.
Having those tools, choices and options can help us feel stronger. Whatever and whenever we decide to explore something new, it is an important move forward in our own self discovery, reminding us of how amazing, strong and undefeatable we truly are.
SamSpaces is a hand that holds you: Sam gives you signposts to take you to new places and somewhere to share a safe, friendly and honest space that supports and reassures you.
– Emily Hodge
I feel that it is vital to reach out to people affected by cancer, to offer that solidarity and understanding, especially in life afterwards, so no one feels alone. Despite the end of treatment we are not 'back to normal' and recovery is a journey in itself.
Find out more on A Space to Shine.
Sam's Space; About Me.
This is where I tell you that I am so more than just a cancer patient! The time line below is 'an at a glance' take on my numerous dances with the mighty C and all the twists, turns, tangoes and foxtrots Ive performed.
Sam in her own space is also a wife and Mum. I love singing and dancing and I am a self confessed knitwear junkie. I can't live without GHD's and I'm well known for my Monica'isms! I am a crazy organised, overly efficient ex PA who after working in the film industry for five years was diagnosed with Breast Cancer suddenly at the age of twenty seven. I kept a daily diary of treatment and recovery, keeping friends and family abreast of my journey. It was a life line. I discovered my love of writing while still in school uniform, writing volumes of descriptive essays but wasn't brave enough to do anything with it properly until I embarked on a children's writing course. Then three years ago I was asked to blog for an online magazine in light of my age and secondary diagnosis. Suddenly my diary became a massive tool of solidarity I wanted to share.
Last year I had a third diagnosis and with a gorgeous family now in tow, life has certainly been interesting! I am no expert, neither am I an encyclopaedia on breast cancer, let alone any cancer, but I have learnt from experience how vital it is, in this day and age, to actively offer that personal support and empathy to others. After having to find the strength to get up and dust myself off more than once, I wanted to prove there is a silver lining and since the cancer survival rates have doubled in the last forty years, there are clearly a fair few of us along for the ride, all re building their own space to shine x

Akshobhya the Undisturbed: Paradigm of Patience
Day 3 of the teachings in Bonn | Teachings on Akshobhya
Bonn, Germany – 29th August, 2015 |
Before bestowing the empowerment, the 17th Karmapa gave a two-part introduction to the Buddha Akshobhya, detailing the story, his importance in Tibetan Buddhist tradition, and the connection between Akshobhya and the Karmapa lineage.
His Holiness began by clarifying the meaning of the name Akshobhya, explaining that in Tibetan Akshobhya is known as Mitrugpa. It means someone who is undisturbed by aggression and anger, he said, someone who remains unperturbed. The translation into English as 'immoveable' did not accurately convey this. Later in the teaching, he explained that within the tantric tradition, a second name Migyurpa was used, and this carried the meaning 'unmoving' or 'undisturbed'.
According to the tradition, Read the rest of this article

Chromaprint is the core component of the AcoustID project. It's a client-side library that implements a custom algorithm for extracting fingerprints from any audio source. Overview of the fingerprint extraction process can be found in the blog post "How does Chromaprint work?".
Latest release — 1.3.2 (July 9, 2016)
- Source code tarball (525 KB)
- Static binaries for the
- Windows, 32-bit (1 MB)
- Windows, 64-bit (1 MB)
- Mac OS X, 32-bit, 10.4+ (964 KB)
- Mac OS X, 64-bit, 10.4+ (944 KB)
- Linux, 32-bit (1 MB)
- Linux, 64-bit (1 MB)
- Most Linux distributions have their own binary packages for Chromaprint
The library exposes a simple C API and the package also includes bindings for the Python language. The documentation for the C API can be found in the main header file.
Note that the library only calculates audio fingerprints from the provided raw uncompressed audio data. It does not deal with audio file formats in any way. Your application needs to find a way to decode audio files (MP3, MP4, FLAC, etc.) and feed the uncompressed data to Chromaprint.
There is an example application written in C that uses FFmpeg to calculate fingerprints from any audio files.
You can dowload the development version of the source code from Bitbucket. Either you can use Git to clone the repository or download a zip/tar.gz file with the latest version.
In order to just compile the library, you will need to have either FFTW3 or FFmpeg installed, unless you are on OS X, where we can use the standard vDSP library. If you want to build the full package, you will also need TagLib, Boost and Google Test.
$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/acoustid/chromaprint.git
$ cd chromaprint

Thomas Hobbes wrote this definitive thesis on how to establish a manageable government. "Leviathan" is a treatise similar to Machiavelli's approach to the jurisdiction allowed to independent countries. Hobbes believed that the first principle of human conduct is self-interest, and this behavior is the base element of social confrontation. In order to maintain peace and uphold the law, a sovereign is needed to guard the people's safety and punish anyone who breaks the regulations. The sovereign is one power, not a division of controlling elements. The commonwealth he commands can only be built by force or agreement. When the government has such power, the individual citizen can allocate his time and energy to serving the needs of his family and satisfying the requirements of a good administration. This same system also allows the privilege of self-defense but not aggression. Hobbes surmised the God's natural law is an education of rational enlightenment which influences all situations. Please Note: This book is easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher. The Microsoft eBook has a contents page linked to the chapter headings for easy navigation. The Adobe eBook has bookmarks at chapter headings and is printable up to two full copies per year.

Newsnight's Jeremy Paxman talks to Russell Brand about voting, revolution and beards.
Views: 637
Add a Comment
Russell Brand is a guest on msnbc's "The Last Word" with Lawrence O'Donnell. They discuss Russell's new book, Revolution.
Russell also regularly makes The Trews - The News (if the news was true)
Here is Russell 4 months later, one of hundreds of videos, still more relevant than watching the news.
He discusses politics and fear, among other things.
Stephen: I'm happy to say that you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone on Brand's wagon here.
Get off that Russell Brand Wagon will ye's
Yes ref Brand and every one on him ,that was taken away ,from what is really going on in the BBC and the Royal Family .All to do with the children. What about Jimmy Sevall [word not right ] and that is what I am thinking .
Breda, you are bang on the money. This pretender has a cult of pretenders flocked around him. If you want to see an archetypal example of what you just said about Brand's followers then check out this comment thread on this Youtube video (I'm LordShivasServant) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsBDMeLq9hA made by this Scottish genius. Some prick just starts projecting his shit all over me - it's quite funny.
It's also interesting to see how these Brandbots are put off by the anger of this Scottish guy and throw out everything he says based on the fact that he's angry. Of course he's fucking angry. He sees some prick infiltrating the minds of people who will probably wake up on their own without this mind-control moron molesting them. Of course he's angry. I'm angry. Anybody who knows anything about how the entertainment industry works is angry.
Russell Brand is talking a lot B/S and yet .people ,who say,they are awake ,are ready to have him ,as leader . and have truned on people ,who tell it ,as its .I feel that the same people ,are not realy awake ,since ,they think that he is great but they do not look ,behind what he is says. I feel that that we do not need leaders. What change he is calling for . what will he be in one years time ,up there ,with more money and the reast of the people ,who are calling on him ,to be a leader ,down there ,in deep ,with no food ,no homes etc. The PTB are now afraid ,as many people are not going to vote and they need people to vovte. I will not vote again,to keep this rotten system going.
thanks a solas! :) got there eventually LOL

Stamp, Redgrave hit the truest notes in 'Unfinished Song'
Elderly English people are hot — at least at the movies.
Following on the sensible heels of "Quartet" and "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,""Unfinished Song" has a veteran cast and a distinctly senior focus.

CDOkay! TV Makes it easy for displaying Youtube videos on your pages as well as displaying a full summary of your latest webisodes on a page.
Q: Okay, now I activated the plugin... I am in the CDOkay! TV admin panel... what next? A: Start having your video post categories by setting a new category that is exclusively for your video posts. If you already have one, you may skip making a new video category. After that, make video posts by placing the cdokaytv shortcodes with the youtube video id. Below it you can add additional text content if you want.
Q: Right, I just made several posts following that format, nothing's happening? A: Go to the CDOkay! TV admin panel settings and select your video category. After that you can select your frame color and the width and height.
Q: Hey! They're looking good. Okay, now what about that video gallery you mentioned? A: You want it on your homepage? No problem. You just place the php function 'cdokayDisplay();' (without the quotes) anywhere inside your page.php page. If you want it to appear on specific pages, you may want to paste in the following:
if(is_page('name-of-your-page')){ cdokayDisplay(); }
Or if you want it only to show up on your homepage:
if(is_front_page()){ cdokayDisplay(); }
Remember, this function won't work unless you already activated the plugin!
Q: Awesome! But wait, why did you name it CDOkay! TV? A: Because I first implemented that system (manually) on a website with that name. You can actually see the plugin in action there: http://www.cdokay.com and click away on the video thumbnails or their titles.
Q: Great, are there any more features? A: In time there will be more features, but at the moment I still have other matters to attend to. If you could donate some amount to encourage me to further the development of this plugin or make entirely new ones, it is greatly appreciated!
Unset all options inside the CDOkay! TV Admin panel.
If you placed the following code on any of your theme pages:
You need to remove them. If you replaced 'get_content();' with it, you should put it back in place.
Requires: 2.5 or higher
Compatible up to: 3.0.5

Lary Cox, saddle maker
At Christie Saddlery it is our goal to fit the individual horse and rider. We do not inventory a line of saddles for sale, because it is our belief that every customer has his/her individual needs and desires. We believe every horse and rider are a one of a kind and their needs can not be met with an off the shelf saddle.
Because our customers cover the spectrum from Arabian to mules and different desciplines the need of the riders and their horses very so much that we believe it is impossible to meet these requirements with a common saddle.
I hope the information found here will help educate and bring to light some of the falsehoods you see in advertisements and inadequices in most systems of saddle fit.
We pride ourselves on product quality, honesty, integrity, and unparalleled customer service. With this philosophy, we take excellent care of every customer and help in selecting that perfect saddle.

Innocent-Looking Schoolboy Is Anything But - StaxusO
Models: Rhys Casey and Jaxon Radoc
Studio: Staxus
Schoolboys have always had a reputation for being easily influenced by the more corruptive aspects of society, and young Jaxon — a blond, puppy-eyed beauty from Down Under — maintains the tradition when he encounters Rhys sneaking a cigarette in the woods. Not that the twinkish beauty suddenly takes up smoking.
No, he's way too interested in what's under Casey's uniform to be bothered by anything like that; and within a few minutes he's eagerly feasting on the thick, uncut British shaft that's nestling nicely within the other fellow's pants. At which point you quickly realise that Radoc's apparent innocence is nothing more than a facade. Truth is, the boy's as much of a dick-lovin' whore as any other lad on the STAXUS books, whose only ambition at this point is to get Casey's shaft firmly embedded between his butt-cheeks.
Suffice it to say that it doesn't take long for the Brit-boy to take advantage of his Aussie pal; and, having deep-throated the cutie, is soon ploughing into Radoc's ass-hole with eager abandon. Unquestionably the highlight here is that of seeing Radoc riding Casey's cock cowboy-style with his legs akimbo; and it's no wonder that the boy is soon spraying a generous wad of jizz in appreciation. Quickly followed by Casey himself, who neatly dumps over his newfound fuck-buddy's hairless chest. Rarely has a trip into the woods looked quite so worthwhile!

You hear all this stuff about a scam. I get a letter from Appalachian Power, but it's from an independent company selling [home power surge insurance]… there is no way you can get a surge of power that I know of other than lightning and you have insurance to take care of this. I can't believe that Appalachian Power has jumped on this thing along with this company. It says it is separate from the power company but the letter you get has a letterhead on it from Appalachian Power. I don't know.
HILLSVILLE – The Carroll County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a resolution authorizing a revenue anticipation note for up to $2 million, but county staff hopes to not have to use it.
The money would be used for general operating funds during times in the fiscal year when revenue is typically slow, and the county would only borrow what is needed, not to exceed $2 million.
Later in the fiscal year, when tax revenue and other payments start coming in, the county would be able to pay the money back.
FRIES — Rickey Fulton, a local songwriter from Fries, says that music was a tradition in his family that he continues to celebrate today.
Over the years, he has found a deep appreciation for the values of gospel, bluegrass and country music, and gives credit to God for his ability to create new songs for the community to enjoy.
INDEPENDENCE — More than a year after the extent of the Grayson County Public Schools' budget crisis was revealed, the Grayson County Board of Supervisors has turned over an investigation into the cause of the extreme shortfalls to the Virginia State Police.
The board completed its investigation of the school system's budget problems on July 27. It included a forensic audit that covered three years of school finances. Some findings have been turned over to state police and commonwealth's attorney's office.
An 11-year-old child was airlifted to Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in North Carolina, after being struck by a car Tuesday evening while riding a bicycle on Meadow Creek Road.
According to Virginia State Trooper R.B. Phipps, officers and rescue personnel were dispatched to Meadow Creek Road, 1.5 miles west of Davis Knob in Grayson County, at approximately 5:30 p.m. on Aug. 23. Upon arrival, responders found an accident involving the minor and a 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt, operated by Heather Sizemore, 25, of Galax.

The newest issue of City Beat has a cover article about the Ludlow Garage concert hall that Jim Tarbell founded back in 1969. It lasted for three years and featured a great number of up & coming rock acts at the time. The venue last for about three years.
I had always heard that Tarbell had recorded everyone who played there. Some years ago, Polydor released a CD of the Allman Brothers Band Live at the Ludlow Garage. The club was dubbed, as the article says, as the Filmore of the Midwest.
Now with the 40th anniversary and in conjunction with the Cincy Blues Festival, a 2 CD set of recordings from the clubs history will be released. This is very exciting and you should catch quite a number of acts, some in their nascent stages.
The garage opened just as I was starting high school and closed before I got to the stage where my parents wouldn't have freaked out about me going down to Clifton ("stay away from Calhoun Street!"). I was able to catch an act or two at Reflections on Vine Street in Clifton and later, a club that was open very briefly downtown on 8th or 9th Street (which is on the north side of City Hall), but I can't remember it's name. At Reflections I saw Seatrain, the first time I'd ever seen an electric violin played.
Of the CD, the article says:
This weeks release of live recordings from the Garage wonderfully captures the eras diverse musical spirit. Theres a trippy, improv feel on almost all the tracks from such artists as Santana, Taj Mahal, NRBQ, Commander Cody, Herbie Mann and the Staple Singers. And theres a haunting version of the Allman Brothers Dreams with Duane Allman flashing his finest otherworldly guitar licks.
I guess I'll be stopping at Shake It Records on Monday.

My other friend got barbacoa tacos they had no flavor. We had to ask for salsa and a spoon which we never got. I could go on and on.but this is like the white version of panchitos compared to the one on zarzamora. Way different food it's like day and night. If you want real awesome food. Go to the one on zarzamora. This place was a joke SMH
