To do this with the other images what you do is select the image button on the upper right of the comment box. At that point you will see two boxes that say imageurl. What you do is paste the image link right inbetween those two boxes. That will display your images in your post. It works the same way with You tube links. The external link one is a little more tricky. that one you are pasting the link right inside the two quote marks. And then you replace the comment here text with whatever you want.

It took me a while to remember where I had heard about strange glowing clouds in the past. Not sure if this is the same thing but it sounds close.

Red Sox Doubront gives up 1 hit in first startAP Photo
Bostons Felix Doubront delivers to the plate during the first inning of Mondays spring training game against the Tampa Bay Rays.
FORT MYERS, Fla. Finally on the mound for a spring training game, Felix Doubront was pleased with his outing.
Doubront, slowed a sore left shoulder this year, pitched 1 2-3 scoreless innings for the Boston Red Sox on Monday in a 5-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays.
Feels fine, Doubront said of his shoulder. Its good to be back on the mound again, working hard to see the results for my arm. Very good.
Doubront gave up one hit, walked two and struck out two, throwing 23 of 43 pitches for strikes.
When you look at his fastball, breaking ball, as well as a couple of changeups that he threw. Ideally youd like to see him get through a couple of innings in his first outing, Red Sox manager John Farrell said. But the fact is, he got up and down twice, no physical issues.
Rays right-hander Jeremy Hellickson, making his first start and second appearance of spring training, allowed one run and two hits in three innings with four strikeouts. He threw 31 of 43 pitches for strikes.
Im very happy, Hellickson said. My arm feels great. Everything feels good. All my stuff feels really good.
Loser Jeff Niemann followed Hellickson and gave up one run in 2 2-3 innings.
I felt all right out there, said Niemann, who has not worked out of the bullpen in the regular season since 2010. Its a little bit different coming out of the bullpen. But overall everything went well. I was throwing strikes, making them put the ball in play.
Rays manager Joe Maddon liked what he saw from his first two pitchers.
I thought Jeff and Hellickson were both very sharp, said Rays manager Joe Maddon. Helly was really sharp, good velocity, good breaking ball, curve and change. And I thought the same of Jeff.
Terry Doyle won in relief, giving up one run in 2 1-3 innings.
Phillies 5, Pirates 0
BRADENTON, Fla. A.J. Burnett lasted just 1 1-3 innings Monday against the Philadelphia Phillies, struggling with his control as his pitch count climbed to 51.
The Pittsburgh Pirates ace, preparing for an opening-day start against the Chicago Cubs, walked in a pair of runs in a four-run second during a 5-0 loss, giving up four runs and four hits.
All Im worried about is April 1 and building up to that date, Burnett said.
Burnett issued consecutive walks to Humberto Quintero and Ben Revere that forced in two runs. Later in the inning, Chase Utley worked reliever Kris Johnson for another bases-loaded walk.
Walking guys with the bases loaded at this point in the spring doesnt bother me because I was trying to be aggressive in that situation, Burnett said.
Phillies fifth starter John Lannan and four relievers combined on a one-hitter. Lannan gave up the Pirates only hit, a two-out double by Travis Snider in the first, and walked two during three scoreless innings.
Lannan has allowed one run in five innings in his first two starts. He signed a $5 million, one-year deal with Philadelphia after Washington allowed him to go free.
I just felt like I had a good rhythm, Lannan said. My fastball felt good and I had a good mix with Quintero back there catching. I wish I wouldnt have walked the two guys. Other than that, though, I was happy.
Mike Adams, signed to a $12 million, two-year contract, followed Lannan and pitched one perfect inning with one strikeout. Rookie left-hander Adam Morgan followed with three innings and Raul Valdes got the final six outs.
Our pitching looked real sharp, Philadelphia manager Charlie Manuel said. Lannan looked really good. He has a lot of motion in his delivery and its tough for the hitters to pick up his pitches.
Michael Young had two hits and two RBIs for Philadelphia. Revere and Yuniesky Betancourt also had two hits in helping send Pittsburgh to its seventh loss in eight games.
Its been a real good spring for us, Manuel said. Weve been working real hard, and weve started hitting the last three or four days. The pitching has been good and now were starting to swing the bats the way I know we can.
Left-hander Wandy Rodriguez, the Pirates No. 2 starter, pitched three scoreless innings. He then departed for San Juan to join the Dominican Republic for the World Baseball Classic.
NOTES: Philadelphia OF Delmon Young was scheduled to visit orthopedist Dr. Richard Ferkel in Los Angeles on Tuesday for a checkup with hope he might be cleared to be participate in limited baseball activities. Young, signed to a $750,000 contract as a free agent in January, underwent microfracture surgery on his right ankle in November and likely will begin the season on the DL. The Phillies are encouraged that he has lost 11 pounds since the start of spring training, dropping to 227. ...

Another enabling program that wastes money...we are a country led by enablers...we as a country allow ourselves too fail...time and time again..
Obama To Spend $200 Million On ?My Brother?s Keeper? Plan For ?Young Men of Color??
Posted on 27 February, 2014 by sophia
Hmm, favoring one race over another, isn?t that kinda racist?
President Obama on Thursday will establish a new interagency task force charged with promoting opportunities for young men of color through an examination of government policies and programs.
The program, dubbed ?My Brother?s Keeper,? will ask businesses and foundations to fund programs across the country designed to keep young minority men employed or in school and out of jail.
?For decades, opportunity has lagged behind for boys and young men of color. But across the country, communities are adopting approaches to help put these boys and young men on the path to success,? a White House official said in a statement. ?The president wants to build on that work.?
The president will announce that foundations supporting the initiative have pledged at least $200 million over the next five years to ?find and rapidly spread solutions that have the highest potential for impact,? the White House said.

Another enabling program that wastes money...we are a country led by enablers...we as a country allow ourselves too fail...time and time again..
That's racist
Can anyone say, "Affirmative Action?"
We tried this before. This jackass president really is a moron.
If you're a white man, fuck you, you can't have a job. We don't have a program offering us free money, free unemployment and free fica for you so... GTFO.
Jobs should go to the most qualified, regardless of race, not to the prospect that gets employers the most in subsidies and incentives.
He is a master at dividing the masses, which is all this amounts to.

200,000,000 for Obama for young black men? Why doesn't he just go to Bangkok, it would much cheaper.
Don't we already spend 5x this much on young men of color? The prison system doesn't operate on good feelings ya know.
inb4 race war
I wish there was a way to make these politicians accountable for the decisions they make regarding money, and how it is used; that they seem to think is everlasting but in reality majority of it is the product of hard working americans giving a substantial amount of their meager check to an entity who just abuses it and consequently is lowering the value of the dollar everyday! When will it end?
Oh Yeah. RACIST SOB!!
I've always told people that when I make my millions I will have a college scholarship fund. Here is the criteria for the applicants:
Middle class
Has a job while going to school
Pays his own bills
Is not qualified for government assistance
Is not obese
American citizen
THIS is the most discriminated class of people on the earth.
Hey thats my description (:
Some mornings, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps. - Emo Phillips
The answer is clear: no, it's not.
So long as what you're doing doesn't benefit white people in anyway or say anything less than "minorities are god's gift to the Earth", it's not racist.
Racism is the act of understanding facts and realizing that not all people are equal; and that "not equal" comes in convenient groupings.
And no, it's not racist for Obama to spend some money on people instead of corporations. It's about time Obama stand up & help young black folk.
In other words...FUCK YOU WHITEY!!!
well a lot of white people complain that so many blacks are criminals and disproportionate in prison populations etc so how can keeping blacks in school and out of jail NOT profit whites as well? we will all save money in the long run because keeping men in prison is expensive. stop looking at it with your racist glasses on and you might see how it's good for everyone.
you don't get what you wish for ~ you get what you work for
I haven't researched ,but from reading just here it seems the money is all coming from private and corporate donations. Or is it not?
If you have any questions please dont hesitate to e-mail me at: email@example.com
Like it or not, it's racist

Just a Silly Bitch...
Now here's the list of Gargamel attempts to fuck with a nigga.
An angry bitch asks me to leave my crib......
A greedy bitch asks me to continue to pay for the car she drives that I OWN....
A vindictive bitch gets me fired from my job.....
A stupid bitch gets my truck towed......
A sneaky bitch is tryna use my kids to manipulate me....
And on top of that, a bitch is mad that I've moved on.....REALLY???? Where da fukk to they do that??
Now.....I get it. I played my part. Let the marriage dissolve to a really low level of fucked-up-ness; Fucked up so we would eventually be forced to split. I get it. But when are adults supposed to think about their children?? Some things have already happen. I don't understand why bitches are determined to make the lives of their children worse. Tellin them shit that should be discussed between adults; talkin to them negatively about their father; tryna make them choose.
On the flip side. I never say anything to my children about Gargamel's sick ass mindset. I never make negative comments. I may smirk when they tell me some of the stupid shit she does. But I support her and defend her to our children.
Hopefully some of this dumb shit will go away. I hope the bitch realizes that I'm not gonna give her the attention she seeks. I'm not gonna respond to dumb shit. And when she pulls inappropriate, bitch shit, another bitch of mine is gonna be callin her. The one with ESQUIRE at the end of her name. And HER ASS is one fine ass, sexy, intelligent, eloquent, cut-yo-fukkin-throat, vindictive, win-at-all-cost type bitch.
Keep playin Gargamel. Silly bitch.

some people will never come into their own, to see better for everyone else in spite of what's happening with them. the lack of care for what the children are exposed to [verbally, for starters...] speaks volumes. "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" is a very true statement. she doesn't know any better & merely reflects the behavior of her mother, who subjected her father to the same shit she thinks you should(have) accepted - like he has [probably] for years. consider the source in all of this & allow that to be your guide. you will NOT be denied all that you deserve & desire...for yourself AND your children! harmony's on the horizon...see it!ReplyDelete
...you going through some real nigga shit there...It always cracks me up when I think of that cartoon Gargamel! Does she know you call her that?ReplyDelete
I don't know how you do it.ReplyDelete
Being young and unmarried...I can only imagine.ReplyDelete
There are a few studies out there that say (paraphrasing like a mutha fucka here) women going through a divorce see their husband in their children, and that can be why they don't try to guard their feelings. Some even begin to mistreat them.
Just showing some love on your blog! Its one of the most entertaining and interesting ones I've come across...and thanks for all the love on mine! MUAH!ReplyDeleteReplies

Senior Salute Kicks-Off Countdown to Graduation
Organized by Wittenberg's Community Service program, the annual Celebrate Service, April 20, welcomed close to 100 participants, who branched out to seven locations across the community to participate in service projects. The 2013 theme drew on the famous quote from the hit movie The Lorax: "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not."
President Laurie M. Joyner provided opening welcome comments at the event, which also honored the university's mission and its values of compassion and service. After thanking everyone present and discussing how this event aligns perfectly with how Wittenberg educates students, Joyner concluded with one of her favorite quotes from Margaret Mead: "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

Marshallia Ranch Golf Course
Vandenberg AFB, California
July 12-15, 2004
Suyetsugu emerges as the Girls Division winner in the final round
VANDENBERG AFB, Calif.â Roberto Galletti, Jr., was back in action in the final round and grabbed onto the Boys Division title at the AJGA Marshallia Ranch Junior with a tournament total of 2-under-par 214. Xyra Suyetsugu charged ahead in the final round to claim the title in the Girls Division with a tournament total of 7-over-par 223.
Conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, the AJGA Marshallia Ranch Junior featured 84 players from ten states and Canada, including 73 California natives. The fifth annual AJGA Marshallia Ranch Junior was a 54-hole, stroke play tournament that was held at Marshallia Ranch Golf Course for the third consecutive year.
Galletti, Jr., 16, of Clayton, Calif., shot an even-par 72 in the final round and proudly claimed his first AJGA win at the AJGA Marshallia Ranch Junior. Although many obstacles were working against Galetti on the back nine, he stuck it out and maintained his lead.
âI was 5-up going into the back nine,â he said. âThen I doubled No. 13, had a lost ball in a tree on No.15 and before I knew it I was only 1-up.â
Galletti ended the round in style on No. 18, making a 20-footer for birdie to win the tournament.
âItâs such a relief to win my first AJGA event,â he said. âI played pretty consistent and I hit it good all week long. All I had to do was worry about my game and not the other competitors because anything can happen.â
In second place was Doug Fortner of Tustin, Calif., with a tournament total of 214. In third place was Tim Cha of Chino Hills,Calif., at 216, followed by Larry Wong of Diamond Bar, Calif., in fourth at 218 and Samuel Kim of Cerritos, Calif., in fifth with a tournament total of 220.
Suyetsugu, 18, of Honolulu, Hawaii, won her first AJGA event sheâs ever played in.
âItâs a great feeling to win because I really didnât expect it,â she said. âI didnât even realize I was in the lead. I was just playing my game, so it was a nice surprise at the end.â
Even with a lost ball on the last hole, Suyetsugu fought it out and finished with a 3-over-par 75 in the final round.
âI was just playing against the course,â she said. âI had a couple of birdies which helped cancel out the bogies and I just tried not to worry about the competition. I took it one hole at a time.â
In second place for the Girls Division was Allison Goodman of San Diego, with a 226 tournament total, followed by Mariko Makabe of Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., in third place with a 227 tournament total.
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf.

Deadline nears for comment on projectOctober 26,2013Deadline nears for
comment on project
BRATTLEBORO Vermonts Public Service Board has extended the comment period on a proposed 2-megawatt solar array for land along Interstate 91 in Brattleboro.
But the town Select Board is still waiting to see if the PSB will allow a public hearing on the proposal by Winstanley Enterprises to install about 8,300 solar panels.
The firm applied for a certificate of public good from the board and asked that the application be considered under a process that expedites the permitting comment period and limits the public input opportunities.
The Brattleboro Reformer reported the Public Service Board set an Oct. 18 deadline for the interested parties to comment. After the town asked for the public hearing, the board extended the comment deadline to Monday.
The Select Board, the Planning Commission and the public have been largely supportive of the project.
There have been some comments made about the aesthetic impact of having more than 8,000 solar panels along the major highway into Vermont, but others have said the solar array should be highlighted to showcase Vermonts commitment to renewable energy.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

Clinch River / Small Dam + The key to the Clinch
I have fished the Clinch three times in the past month and it never fails, every time around 3:30pm the fish start hitting! I think it is still alittle slow but yesterday 3/17/06 the fish were active ! I was fishing at the small dam on the clinch river and was out there early, didn't catch anything until around 3 and then it pick up at 4. I was fishing with Zebra Nymphs and Midges and they were doing great. I strung my leader with a midge and then 7 inches farther down with a Zebra , not the usual but it worked very well. I ended up catching 7 in one hour. I switched to a dry to see if they would take it and they attacked it. Dries are starting to work ! Get excited fishermen , the season is here, I wish you all the best and God's Love and blessings to you, PHIL

Re: Clinch River / Small Dam + The key to the Clin
Fished the Clinch FRI 16 MAR, for some reason there was a good release schedule. Stayed @ weir dam all day; lots of little fish rising all day, took black midges @ #20. Also were hitting small zebra nymphs. Lost count. Probably should have stepped tippet down to #6 or #7, might have had more than one fish I had to use the net on. Wind was a factor: harder to cast accurately, but hid the leader/tippet well. Now that the state of TN has my $80, plan to get there more often. Has to be the most user-friendly place in this neck of the woods. I have spent the day there skunked, but lately doing better. Really helps to have the right fly on the Clinch. W.
Re: Clinch River / Small Dam + The key to the Clin
In the afternoons when the water is down, you will find alot of smaller fish working the midge emergences in or just below the surface film. Try swinging small (size 18-22) soft hackles in midge colors like olive, tan, black or gray. You will catch alot of fish in the 4-8" range, but will often be pleasantly surprised with an occasional bruiser of 12" or better. I fish them on 6X tippet.
If you tye flies, these are the most simple of ties only requiring a hook, some thread, and one wrap of starling hackle, or two wraps of a small hen neck feather. Just remeber to build up a little bump of thread for the thorax of the fly before wrapping the hackle. I like to cast across and drift the fly till it gets somewhere about 45* from my position, then I lower my rod tip and swing/slow strip the fly in a typical down and across wet fly presentation with the rod tip in the film. The strikes are often hard and fast so be ready to raise your rod swiftly to make the hook set!

When Baby B was on the way, we weren't sure what to do about our kids' sleeping arrangements. We have a three bedroom house and won't be moving anytime soon- nor is an addition in the budget (ever?!) so one way or another, someone will be sharing a bedroom. My kids, if you don't know, are pretty close together in age- 25 months apart from Busy to Buddy and then 23 months later, Baby B came along. What we decided when Baby B was born was to move the 2 older kids in together even though they are boy/girl and keep the baby in her own room. It's worked for 21 months but I think its time to change things up.
Well, since I started this draft, I lost my mind and began the change earlier this morning. I'm not really sure at what point in time that I lost my mind, but I'm fairly certain its gone for good. All three kids were "helping" me. Here's the thing. The "dressers" we have are tiny, like nursery sized for 2 of the kids. Busy B has a bit larger dresser but I believe the set it began its life with actually started out as part of a set that also had an armoire. This means we have no storage for clothing. I can't do cute little bins like I want to because my children are little and in all likelihood, seeks and destroy. I have to face facts, pay the
piper salesperson and buy some modern bedroom furniture. We don't need nor desire to go fancy or expensive- the kids are little and I'd rather wait to invest more until they can take better care of things.
In the girls' room, I think one choosing one of the many options for triple dressers might be the way to go. I do have to get Buddy B's racecar bed out of there first, before I can even attempt this. Sigh. Its tough- we really do need to have three dressers, one for each kid- I don't see a way around it. The dresser my son uses was actually what my sister used to store table linens in a closet with for years- its just too tiny. Perfect for a nursery, not perfect for a growing boy especially when seasons are changing and weather can be 30-80 degrees in the same day.

Congress continues to grapple with how to handle the looming "fiscal cliff" coming at the end of the year, so far sparking a standoff between the two parties.
But what is this cliff, and how could it affect you?
The "cliff" itself is the result of a bill that raised the debt ceiling last year but left it up to a super-committee to work out cuts. That committee couldn't agree, and now if nothing is done before the end of the year, a spending cuts and tax increases could take effect that would amount to $7 trillion over the next 10 years.
So what does that mean to you? The cliff could cause a domino effect on taxes for 90 percent of the country. The nonpartisan Tax Policy Institute estimates that middle-income taxpayers would see taxes go up about $2,000, and the average increase across all tax brackets is estimated at $3,500.
Why? Multiple tax cuts would expire, including a payroll tax cut affecting 120 million workers and the Bush tax cuts affecting all income taxpayers. A tax credit for college tuition would be eliminated, a $1,000 tax credit per child would be cut in half, and 10 times more people would pay the estate tax than this year.
Then there's the spending cuts, the result of which nobody is certain. The cliff would trigger $1.2 trillion in cuts, half to defense spending and the other half to domestic spending. That's anywhere from an 8-10 percent cut across the board. Also, for unemployed people, the amount of federal benefits they would be eligible for could be drastically cut from 99 weeks of unemployment to just 26 weeks.
In a report this month, the Congressional Budget Office warned it could send the economy back into a recession and send unemployment back over 9 percent.
Then there are the options for how to fix it. The president is pushing tax increases on the country's top wage earners, promising to veto a bill that doesn't include them. Republicans said that's not an option and are pushing to close tax loopholes and eliminate deductions to find revenue.
Congress and the president need to come to an agreement by Dec. 31 to avoid all of the changes, and that's not to say what type of stock market and economic impact any impasse could cause between now and then. Already, stocks have taken a hit on the fiscal cliff discussion. The Dow Jones, S&P and Nasdaq composites have all fallen sharply in the past two days.

Solid Spring So Far For The Phillies
The Phillies have had a very productive month so far this spring and will go into their day off tomorrow with a record of 9 wins, 4 loses and a tie. Spring Training results are not a great indicator of how a team will perform in the regular season, but based on years past, it seems like every player came to camp more prepared and more determined this year and it shows. The bats are jumping and most guys have stayed fairly healthy.
Placido Polanco's right knee strain is minor and he will be back in action probably by Friday. Chase Utley has also sat out a few games with a respiratory illness but again, he seems to be on the road to recovery. Even pitchers like JC Romero and Brad Lidge who had off-season surgeries are getting closer and closer to game-shape. Romero threw to live batters this morning and is feeling good; both he and Lidge should be ready to go by early April.
Luck Of The Irish?
Cole Hamels was feeling lucky this week; he threw 5 innings in a win over the Tigers on Tuesday without allowing an earned run; he gave up just 2 hits and struck out 4. Joe Blanton was not quite as solid against the Yankees today in the St. Patty's Day showdown, but still not bad. Blanton did allow 2 runs on 7 hits over 5 innings, but maybe he is just allergic to the shamrock green uniforms?
The two young lefty bullpen hopefuls also pitched in the last two games and showed some progress. Antonio Bastardo showed off some serious heat, striking out 2 batters and not allowing a base runner in his inning against the Tigers. Sergio Escalona also pitched a scoreless inning against the Yanks, although he is still struggling with his control and walked two batters. Regardless, it does appear that both players are anxious to crack the Opening Day roster.
As for the bats, Ryan Howard hit his first home run of Spring yesterday and is batting a very solid .344 so far. Not to be outdone, Jayson Werth smashed a 3-run homer today that looked like a rocket as it travelled in nearly a straight line over the left field fence faster than you could blink. It was his 2nd home run this spring.
No, not at the Phillies; or at least we think not anymore…however, he is having an interesting spring so far with the Mariners. On Monday in a game against the D-Backs, Lee was actually ejected from a Spring Training game for the first time in his career. For what? He was tossed for intentionally throwing at a batter's head. The intended victim was D-Backs catcher Chris Snyder; teammate Mark Reynolds stood up for Snyder after the game, calling Lee's actions "bush league."
But did Lee really do it on purpose? Reynolds purports, "I've faced Cliff Lee plenty of times to know he's got amazing control." Check out the video and judge for yourself.
UPDATE: The league has now suspended Lee for 5 games at the start of the season for what they are calling an "intentional" act.
Tosh.0 Redeems A Philly Fan
Remember the adorable little girl who was all over TV last year for tossing her Daddy's prized foul ball catch back onto the field? Well, the father-daughter team are back and Daniel Tosh of Comedy Central's "Tosh.0" gave little Emily a chance at redemption. Check it out:
I am not sure what is more adorable; Emily tossing the Mardi Gras beads or her proclamation that tea parties are better than baseball. Funny stuff!

The Phillies seem to have moved through Spring Training this year better than other years… improvements all around and no one is flying out of the gate blasting on all cylinders, hopefully come April they will all step up and move through the year improving constantly with no lows…. wouldn't that be nice a year with no lows or that 'S' words full of lumps
Outside the Phillies Looking In
Werth's homer yesterday really was a rocket! It got out of the park so fast I almost missed it. Sounds like Cliff Lee is trying to send a message to the AL: "I'm baaack."
I can't watch videos at work hich is having check on the blogs twice. But pleeeze, 5 games?!! I like the old days of Bob Gibson and Don Drysdale where the brushup was standard.
Lee is not being bush league. That's how the game is SUPPOSED to be played. Ask Bob Gibson. No one would call Gibby bush league. Bush league (to me) is hanging out being all buddy buddy with the opposition. Outside the game, fine, but I want my team to be fiery, competitive, angry! 🙂
It seems that a five game suspension for a spring training game is a bit much.
Glad your Phillies had a great spring training so far.

Legislative History
Assignment Iowa #105
The last time the Democrats controlled the governor's office and both chambers of the General Assembly, they approved a lot of what have since been called "monumental tasks." Forty-two years ago—in the Johnson era—the legislature met only once every two years. So in one active year—1965—the voted to open up their committee meetings to the public, lower the voting age from 21 to 18, caused Judges to be appointed, not elected, create the area community college system and enact the Iowa Civil Right Act of 1965. They also restructured the state's school districts—cutting the number of districts nearly in half—something that is often considered political suicide.
Those were interesting times and the attitude of the legislature was not 'are we going to get reelected again?
It was an attitude that proved detrimental to the Democratic class of 1965, as many did not get reelected and they lost control of the house in 1966. Senator Jack Kibbie kept his seat, but lost in 1968. He was reelected in 1988 and is now Senate President of the 2007 legislation session. Looking back, Kibbie says he credits most of the Democrats successes in 1965 not just to having the overwhelming majority in the legislature, but the leadership and cooperative effort of then governor Democrat Harold Hughes.
Harold Hughes was a very strong governor, and when he made recommendations, he followed through on them. And invited legislative leaders at that time and the committee chairs to his office and asked why not.
Today there is a lot of speculation about whether the newly elected 2007 majority will be as cooperative and productive as in 1965.
I thought a good practice for you to have quick is also how you vote. So why don't you all go ahead and vote aye…
As newly elected members get acquainted with procedures and meet with party leaders, many already feel welcome and are optimistic that cooperation has already begun.
…I am really excited because there is rumors that we may even, some of us may get vice chairmanships as freshmen.
I was concerned that maybe it was going to be something where the leadership told you to do it and that is just the way it was. I got into the Caucus and behind closed doors there are people arguing with Pat and point and counterpoint—its democracy at work, so I'm excited…
There may be excitement where it is possible to accomplish with one party in control of the General Assembly and the Governor's office, but the excitement is tempered by the memories of the 1965 one-term power play. The hope for the Democrats is that history will not repeat itself.

When Dana Pourkomeylian's little sister was born, she was determined that her sister should never have to experience the injustices that she herself had been through. This silent promise to her sister was the start of a political journey that over time took her from involvement in party politics to starting an association for children and youth.
Sofia Lindman, 19, wanted to do something about social inequalities, the stalled gender equality debate and the male-dominated hip hop industry. So she started GeniusRAP – a rap choir for girls!

March 2 — Post a photo of one of your female ancestors. Who is in the photo? When was it taken? Why did you select this photo?
|Grandma Brown, August 30, 1912
I have always liked this photograph taken of 2nd great grandmother Sarah Brown because I can see in her the faces of my grandmother and my mother --- and perhaps a trace of myself. She was born Sarah Almira Duty on January 4, 1834 in Giles County, Tennessee. In 1851, at the age of seventeen, she married Jonathan Perry Brown and three years later, they made the long trek over the Oregon Trail to The Dalles, Oregon.
A sense of familiarity emanates from this picture; the look, the staunchness, the earthiness that has been passed down through the generations. Although her life as a pioneer woman in eastern Oregon has been fairly well documented, I crave to know the child, the young girl and woman. That Sarah Duty has always called to me, but never lets me in.

The 1969-70 Topps Basketball set is truly one of the most collectible basketball card issues in the hobby. The "Tall Boy" design and overall difficulty of the cards create strong demand for the set that includes the legendary rookie card of Lew Alcindor (AKA - Kareem Abdul Jabbar) and a #1 card of Wilt Chamberlain. In addition to the Alcindor rookie card, rookie cards of Bill Bradley, Willis Reed, Wes Unseld, Earl Monroe, Connie Hawkins, Dave Bing, Gail Goodrich, Nate Thurmond, Billy Cunningham, Walt Frazier, Elvin Hayes and Dave DeBusschere are amongst those which inhabit the set. Most of these rookie cards feature Hall of Famers. The design and manufacturing process caused many of these cards to be produced with poor centering and the oversized nature of the cards made it difficult to protect the corners and edges from wear over the years. All in all, this set is a key for basketball collectors. To read an in-depth article, click here.
Notes: The divisor for this set for weighting is 189.

Trevor Update
It looks like Trevor is very close to signing with the Brewers. I am pretty relieved. I would be so upset if he signed with the Dodgers. Well, Trevor wants to get 600 saves. I think he will be able to do that in TWO years. So maybe the Brewers are offering a better option for 2010. I just hope that deal gets done and over. That way I can finally come to terms with the fact that he's gone. You know, it's not so much that we're losing an incredible players, but the thing that really bothers me is the way he left. It was shameful to the organization in way that they took care of this. Pathetic. Now I must share this quote and then rip my front office: "We're not getting into a bidding war with anybody over Trevor," Moores said. "It'll be strange to see him in another uniform, especially for me. But it's rare that any player spends his whole career with one organization anymore. I hope he has a great year." Imagine that quote in an extremely sarcastic tone. They won't even TRY to get Trevor. They won't make their fans feel better in the fact that their team tried their hardest. No, the Padres never wanted Trevor back at all. They just lazily flopped a pathetic $4 million contract on the table, knowing that he won't accept that disgrace. They let him walk away. They wouldn't meet with him, wouldn't talk to him about why they did it. They kicked him out the door with no good-byes. Look back at the quote. Let me rephrase it: "We don't want Trevor. It might be weird to see him in another uniform, but that's what we wanted all along. Maybe he'll get 40 saves and win a World Series." Wow, what a pathetic quote. What a pathetic front office! Anyways, Trevor will get signed today. Hopefully by the Brewers. I will be pretty sad…
5 Comments
Well, the official word is not out yet, but it will be soon. Trevor Hoffman has signed with the Brewers. Oh boy…
Kaybee – be brave! The way things are going us Red Sox Fans might not have Varitek back either! Damn – this off season is killing us all!
To make it even worse, Smoltz is going to the Boston! I never even thought of him going anywhere else. Same for Trevor before they decided on not bringing him back. This offseason has definitely been killing almost everyone with the exception of the New York teams.
Sorry for the loss to your team…i hope your team gets sold soon so you can have a trustworthy guy paying the bills.
Kaybee – sorry that you're losing Trevor. It seems like the Padres are going through some tough times right now. Hang in there.

Maybe it seems a little freaky now, but you'll never know what the future brings right? I'm talking about wearing 'LED stuff'. For example this dress all coverd with LED lights or these dancers from the singer M.I.A.
I think it is a very cool special effect to stand out in a sort of way. For the dancers, I think it's a cool thing to wear. It's possible to take a closer look at this amazing LED dress. It's called 'Galaxy Dress' and stands in the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago.
Like I said before, you never know what the future will bring.
Maybe in a few years from now, it's normal to wear a t-shirt with LED characters on it!
So… would you ever wear this trend?

"I am very humbled by the opportunity to be at Falls City," said Chaplin. "This is a great community and district that has been very successful in preparing the students for the future."
Chaplin grew up in Stephenville and attended Tarleton State University, where he received Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise and Sports Studies in 1995. In 2006, Chaplin completed his Masters of Education degree in Educational Administration from Tarleton State.
Chaplin spent 12 years as a teacher and coach in his hometown with Stephenville ISD, before moving on to administration roles with Stephenville ISD, serving as assistant principal at Henderson Junior High and then eventually moving on to principal of Gilbert Intermediate School.
Chaplin's most recent position has been as principal of Huckabay School in Huckabay, which is a small, rural community outside of Stephenville. Chaplin served as principal for five years there.

"I offer no sacrifice save to the One true God."
~ Maximus, martyr, saint, about A.D. 250, in answer to the demand of the civil authorities for sacrifice to the pagan gods; a test in common use as belief in a single Godhead was known to be definitive in the early Christian community; thus any Christian might be called on to seal with his blood his faith in the One God.

They say eyes are the windows to the soul, but I think that's just a scam from the ocular insulation people trying to get us to winterize. Or maybe it just means you can tell a lot about people from their eyes. I'm not sure, but I do know a person's social media profile pics can be even more revealing. Whether it's Twitter or Facebook or something else, that is the face we choose to show the world, and the choice of photo is just as important as the picture itself. Here are six types of profile pics and what they tell you about a person.

The old MySpace downward angle/slimming perspective/cleavage showcase trick shot is not on this list. Old news. Also, get off MySpace, pedo.
6 The Extreme Close-up
On Twitter you see a lot of people (mostly women) who are choosing not to show you their whole face. Instead, you'll get one big, beautiful eyeball with some artistically-applied mascara. Or perhaps a close-up of red, pouty lips. Whatever one characteristic they feel most confident about.
Medioimages/Photodisc/Photodisc/Getty Images
Nice, right? Get to know me and I promise to cut an eye-hole in the burlap sack I normally wear on my head.
Personally, I find that incredibly depressing. I mean, these are women who've chosen a social media site that only lets them reveal 140 characters of their soul, and they can't even show you everything on the outside? It's just a bad idea for attracting men. It's kind of like guys trying to impress women with cock pics that are just close-ups of their pee-hole.
"Hmm, that is one promising urethra. Well, in for a penny, in for a pound, I guess."
It's harder for guys to get away with this, with the possible exception of close-ups of beards, and even that has limited appeal -- specifically to ladies who get a special feeling from stabby follicles, but in a good way. Also, nine out of 10 of guys posting close-up beard pics are covering fatness or compensating for baldness.
Take-away Message: This is as good as I get. Everything else I can show you will be a bitter disappointment.
5 Sexy Shoes
Know what's more depressing than reducing yourself to an eyeball? Doing the exact same thing with shoes. Seriously, there are people going around with sexy shoes as their profile pics.
Hemera Technologies/PhotoObjects.n
"Am I hot? Well, check out these stilettos and you tell me."
Ryan McVay/Digital Vision/Getty Images
"Fuckable? Look at these boots!"
Although surprising, there is actually no correlation between how sexy a person is and the kind of footwear they are capable of purchasing and photographing. But for those women who are posting nothing but their studded spiked heels, here's a little pro-tip: There is something else of yours you can post that will make certain men forget any and all of your flaws, solely for the privilege of slipping inside it. And it's not shoes. In fact, if you meet a guy who wants to spend more time with you because of your choices in ladies footwear, he's probably the last guy who's going to sleep with you.
Take-Away Message: True, these shoes are the sexiest thing about me, but I'll probably do certain things other women won't.

Fantasy Guru Daily: 6/1/11
There is not a lot of groundbreaking football news, but as players continue to conduct workouts, we will gladly accept any football tidbits we can get. Today, the FG Daily takes you to Foxboro, Detroit, Tampa, Nashville, and more.
Brady organizes workouts… Patriot QB Tom Brady is back in the Boston area this week, so he figured he'd call up his teammates
and organize a workout. ESPNBoston.com reports that Brady, who has been working out on his own in California after undergoing foot surgery in January, is back in Boston for some charity work. With charity work set for the weekend, Brady's Patriot teammates have joined him, and several players are set for organized workouts today. We're still waiting to see if the Patriots will add a bigger WR to the mix to replace Randy Moss, but one candidate remains deep threat Brandon Tate, who has had a limited role in two seasons. For now, the Patriot offense will continue to be difficult to predict, as Brady spreads the ball around between Wes Welker, Deion Branch, Aaron Hernandez, and Rob Gronkowski, and RBs Shane Vereen and [...]

Woman escapes Proctorsville fire; cat survives fire and iceBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | January 03,2014Photo by Len Emery
Caked with ice, Proctorsville Fire Department captain Bob Glidden Jr. answers questions at the scene of a structure fire that began in a wood stove in a back room at about 3:30 a.m. and quickly spread to the main house. The lone occupant of 601 Main St. in Proctorsville escaped with her dog and a cat. The cat ran back into the building but was found later, covered in icicles but alive.PROCTORSVILLE — Area firefighters from six departments battled temperatures that hovered at 6 below zero early Friday morning when a fire broke out at a home at 601 Main Street. The fire was later traced to a wood stove.
Proctorsville Fire Chief Bob Glidden Sr. said that the woman living in the house was able to escape with her dog and cat — although the cat ran back into the house.
"She ran out in the road barefoot and without a coat, and I guess it was a good thing she didn't wait," said the chief, who added that he didn't know the woman's name.
The fire was spreading rapidly, and the woman — a sister of the building's owner — had been sleeping when the fire broke out. The owner of record at the Cavendish Town Office is Stephanie Busick of Harwood, Md.
Glidden said the woman was able to call in the fire at 3:37 a.m., and escape the two and a half story building. Firefighters were on the scene 14 minutes later, he said.
Firefighters wrapped her in blankets and got her in one of the firetrucks, he said. She was checked by crews from Ludlow Ambulance, he said, and later left with her father, who lives in the area.
Glidden said the building was a total loss as the roof was gone and the back wing of the house, where the woodstove had been, had collapsed.
The house is two doors down from Cavendish Elementary School and Proctorsville Fire Station.
He said the fire quickly shot up to the attic, and firefighters had to withdraw from the building. He said the old wood frame house had a balloon construction, which meant the crews had to be wary of potential fires concealed within the walls.
Glidden said fighting the fire was difficult because of the temperature, but the key to firefighting in severely cold weather is not to shut anything down. He said several air packs used by firefighters froze and were inoperable, but otherwise there weren't equipment issues or injuries to the 40 firefighters on the scene.
Firefighters from Cavendish, Chester, Ludlow, Springfield and Ascutney helped fight the fire, and fire crews from Reading and West Windsor covered empty stations in Proctorsville and Cavendish, he said.
The chief said his son, Bob Glidden Jr., later found the cat alive inside the house — but covered with icicles and mewing. The chief said the firefighters wrapped the cat in blankets and brought it to the fire station. The animal was later brought to the Springfield Animal Hospital in an attempt to save its life, and the chief said he had been told that the cat will survive its ordeal.
Dr. Dena Meehan, a veterinarian at the animal hospital, said the cat, a 1-year-old black male cat named Houdini, was severely hypothermic when it arrived.
It was so cold, its core temperature didn't even register on the thermometer at 95 degrees, the doctor said, and it was shivering. A cat's normal temperature is 101.5 to 102.5.
"We used a hair dryer, gave it a warm IV, and warm water enema, and used a warm air blanket," she said.
"He's doing quite well. He's purring and eating," she said, noting the cat hadn't been burned or its fur singed by the fire. "He really got soaked from the water and it was so cold. I think he's going to be OK."

Interest Growing in New Degree Program in Occupational Development -- Child Care Practitioner
Twelve Greenbrier Valley students have already enrolled in an innovative new degree program designed to meet the demand for qualified child care professionals. The "Associate of Applied Science Program in Occupational Development--Child Care Practitioner" will launch its community college coursework during the Fall 1997 Semester at the Greenbrier Community College Center of Bluefield State College. Terri Wontrobski, Director of the Greenbrier County Head Start Program, participated in last month's signing ceremony at BSC, establishing the program in affiliation with the Child Care Development Specialist Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP). Coordinated through the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, the program meets the guidelines of the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Services, complementing the occupational specialty classroom education and on-the-job training already available through apprenticeship training. Michael Palm, Student Services Director at the Greenbrier Community College Center of BSC, noted, "The new A.A.S. program in Occupational Development--Child Care Practitioner includes three components. First, there are Department of Education courses that students take while they work at Head Start Programs. Additionally, there is an on-the-job training component, and to complete the program requirements, there is a community college component that can be addressed at the Greenbrier Community College Center." "Several students who have already completed the apprenticeship program courses are enrolled in Fall Semester Coursework at GCCC," he added. "Other students who are not presently in the apprenticeship program can concurrently take apprenticeship training and college coursework at GCCC if they are admitted to the apprenticeship program." According to Palm, approximately 10 openings exist for Fall Semester candidates in the apprenticeship training program. Candidates must be working a minimum of 20 hours in early childhood education to qualify for the program. Additional information may be obtained by contacting GCCC at (304) 645-3303, or Terri Wontrobski at (304) 647-6470.

BLM Seeks Volunteers for Raptor Nest Survey
Salt Lake City, Utah—The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Utah Salt Lake Field Office is seeking volunteers to assist with the annual Raptor Inventory Nest Survey (RINS) in northern Utah. Participation as a volunteer does not require special experience or education, and the BLM will provide training. In fact, the only prerequisites are a love for the outdoors, especially Utah's beautiful west desert, and a sincere desire to help the magnificent birds of prey that call our state home.
No science credentials are necessary to be a RINS volunteer. Interested individuals don't even need to know how to discover a nest or identify a raptor because the BLM will give each volunteer complete training, including map reading and navigation using a GPS, and field safety procedures. To become a volunteer, you must attend one of the training workshops. Training workshops will be held Feb. 23 and March 2 from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. at the Salt Lake Field Office, 2370 South 2300 West, Salt Lake City, Utah.
It is recommended that you own a pair of binoculars, a GPS unit, and have an email address. The time commitment for volunteers is two field days per month from March through July to monitor an assigned area.
For more information, visit www.rins.org, call (801)977-4300, or send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Follow us on Twitter @BLMUtah
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.

Tractors and trout; Who could ask for anything more?
I'm no Norman Rockwell, but he was on my mind as I wended my way through the streets of Callicoon, NY (www.visitcallicoon.com) the next day, doing my best to create a photo journal of the 17th annual Callicoon Tractor Parade, which is (IMHO) a visually striking tribute to Americana. Hundreds of tractors snaked their way through Main Street, as master of ceremonies Jesse Ballew once again announced the make, model, driver and year. "This is my 16th," he told me in between Farmall's and John Deere's "I've only missed one in all these years." The tractors are a show in themselves, ranging in age and condition, but it's the families riding them that are the star attraction. Infants on laps, toddlers in tow and teens at the wheel provided me with image after image, and I can only hope that some of the pictures come close to representing the celebration of family values, farm livin' and the simple things in life that our neighbors honor and visitors marvel at when they come to call.
All told, I took over 400 shots of the tractor parade alone, and more than 9,000 people have already glanced at them online. Facebook fan Allen Dernbach comments that "this is always a great day... The best of all is that the kids are included in everything, which I hope carries the parade for many years to come." Carl Petersen weighed in as well, noting that he "can still smell the mixture of old carbureted gas engines and diesel," summing up the parade with a pithy "smelly, but fun." Loriel Sullivan's, "OMG—I love this," over a pic of her friend sums it up nicely, along with Laurie Horan Keeler's sentimental note on a photo of her son. "I love you, Herman," it says. "I'm so proud to be your mom."
For once (take note, it might not happen again) I'm at a loss for words and happy to sit back and read what others have to say about their friends, family, tractors and trout. While we honor tradition, new social media has opened a door for so many to share, and it's my privilege to be a small cog in a very large wheel of community spirit that continues to march toward the future, while honoring the past. To all who make these parades come to life, I thank you. Norman Rockwell would be proud of your sons and daughters, too. Can't wait to see the next parade, coming to a small town near you.
Here's a video of the Trout Parade:
