Time and time again in their first debate throw-down Sunday, Democrat Chris Murphy said that a vote for self-identified pro-choice Republican Linda McMahon will enable the far right in Washington, D.C., to assault the reproductive rights of women.
McMahon, who a new Quinnipiac University poll shows trailing Murphy by 6 percentage points among likely female voters, released a rebuttal ad today that seeks to burnish her credibility with women.
The 30-second spot features testimonials from six females, two of them minorities, touting McMahon as an independent-minded candidate who will stand up for a woman's right to choose.
The line-up of speakers includes Darien First Selectman Jayme Stevenson and Kathy McShane, a marketing professional from New Canaan who is chair of the Women for Linda Coalition, a volunteer position.
Without mentioning World Wrestling Entertainment, now the WWE, by name, the speakers tell viewers that McMahon's employees had "excellent" health care coverage that provided for birth control and mammograms.
McMahon has invested significant time and resources courting women after losing the female vote 60 to 40 percent in 2010, when she was defeated by Democrat Richard Blumenthal.
During a joint appearance with U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., last Monday in Norwalk, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee alluded to McMahon's need to make inroads with women.
"I think that, I'll give you a little straight talk, we need to do better with the women's vote," McCain said. "We need to better with the women's vote in Connecticut. We need to better with the women's vote all over our national elections."

Alphabet Letter T Tractor
Preschool Lesson Plan Printable Activities and Worksheets
> Letter T > T
is for Tractor
Community Helpers > The Farmer
Crafts > Tractor
Farm theme
Holidays and Events >
*May > Transportation Month
*October 12th > Farmer's Day
Transportation > Land transport
Here are printable materials and some
suggestions to present letter T.
Construction & Transportation > The Tractor
What is a tractor?
The farm tractor or agricultural tractor is probably the most important and valuable piece of equipment that a farmer has to do his job. Farm machinery and trailers are pieces of farming equipment that are attached to the rear of the tractor for various tasks.
Alphabet Activity > Letter T is for Tractor
Present and display your option of alphabet printable materials listed in the materials column.
Children Ages 3 and under:
* Print a letter T coloring page
D'Nealian or Standard Block font and a tractor coloring page behind it or on a separate page if using finger paints to decorate later. Discuss other letter T words found on the worksheet.
* Finger Tracing:
Trace letter T's in upper and lower case with your finger as you also sound out the letter. Invite the children to do the same on their coloring page.
* Children can trace and color the letter T's. After completing coloring the letter, encourage children to color the tractor coloring page and write letter T t and the word tractor on the margins.
Children Ages 3+ to 6:
1. Letter T Tractor Flash Card and Craft > Visit this activity to recognize, trace lower case letter T and make a printable tractor craft.
2. Letter T words: Letter T Activity Page and Mini Book This worksheet and matching mini-book can be used as part of Letter T program of activities to reinforce letter practice and to identify related T words. Read suggested instructions for using the worksheet and mini-book.
* Finger and Pencil Tracing:
*Trace letter T's in upper and lower case with your finger as you also sound out the letter. Invite the children to do the same on their coloring page.
Encourage the children to trace the dotted letter with your choice of sharpened crayon, fine tip marker, coloring or regular pencil and demonstrate the direction of the arrows and numbers that help them trace the letter correctly. During the demonstration, you may want to count out loud as you trace so children become aware of how the number order aids them in the writing process.
*Find the letter T's: Have the children find all the letter T's in upper and lower case on the page and encourage them to circle or trace/shade them first. Visit each child to make sure they have identified the letter T's and then discuss the locations with the worksheet.
*Coloring Activity: Encourage the children to color the images in the worksheet.
Discuss other letter T words and images: First 'brainstorm' and ask the children about other words that have that beginning sound and write them on a board (dry erase board) as the children come up with example. You can print letter T in a different bright color to make it stand out. If you have illustrated alphabet books you can also use images in them. You can also display other T posters and coloring pages or even make a letter T classroom book using coloring images or color posters. Visit Letter T Printable Materials to make your choice.
Letter T Word Search & Handwriting Practice
The six word search game features a tractor and letter T words with pictures and handwriting practice.
Advanced independent handwriting practice:
1. Print your choice of printable lined-paper and encourage children to draw a tractor behind the page or print a tractor coloring page.
2. Drawing and writing paper Encourage children to draw, color and decorate a tractor and write letter T t.

Are we entering the age of the Google Plus celebrity? It sure appears that way to me! It seems that every social network goes through a period when the celebrities on a platform begin to appear. It is now time for my favorite platform Google Plus to come into its own.
I wrote about how everything new goes through 3 stages. First you have the explorers, then the pioneers begin to arrive and finally the settlers are arriving. I believe we are entering the exponential growth phase for Google Plus right now. It is time to make sure your profile on Google Plus is optimized, to get the best possible exposure.
The people who do it right and make the biggest positive impact will reap the benefits of being a Google Plus celebrity. I am not talking about celebrities like we see on tv or the movies. I am talking about people who are celebrities within the Google Plus community. We are already seeing some people emerge as a genuine Google Plus celebrity.
The people I am talking about first and foremost engage in the Google Plus community. I have not seen any of these people troll a fellow user. These are people that I would not mind having a coffee with someday. Yes, coffee seems to be the unofficial drink of choice of many Google Plussers.
Like every community you will have your elitists, your trolls and the ones who will tell you that everything has to be done there way. I am not looking to give these types of people a platform.
I love the Google Plus community and embrace the international feel. Anabell Hilarski and I regularly have hangouts with people from all over the world. You don't need a crystal ball to see that this social network is breaking the barriers of maps and bringing the world together. There is a profound opportunity for you and I to become international celebrities. The use of Google Translate within Google Plus comments has made it possible for us to have a conversation with fellow Plussers who may not speak our language.
The days of the Google Plus celebrity have arrived and I want to point out a few people that I believe will continue to stand out on the platform. These people all embody a will to succeed. They produce great content. They engage with the Google Plus community. They understand that not everyone needs to conform to a set of rigid rules. Most of all they keep their fellow Google Plus users entertained.
- Mia Voss– We are all going #BatCrapCrazy for this Google Plus Starlet. Her show, "Social Media Power Chat", is a must watch hangout every Friday. Mia keeps us entertained and helps us learn at the same time. #GetYourLearnOn
- Yifat Cohen– Our G+ GoToGal has been a star on Google Plus since my early days on the platform. Yifat saw an opportunity and went for it. Her energy and love for what she does come through on every episode of her show. Yifat is the one that taught me and many others the benefits of using hangouts to build a personal brand.
- Mike Allton– It seemed like he came out of no where to bring us pearls of Google Plus wisdom. Mike has been writing articles that will show you how to use Google plus on a regular basis. His approach to writing has made it easy for people to understand. Recently Mike has been stepping up to the mic and showing face via Hangouts. I believe this will catapult him to Google Plus stardom.
- Scott Buehler– Scott has been a phenomenon that few can understand. He reminds me of a rookie pitcher who comes into the league and has a 20 win season. Scott has his system and he sticks to it. I love how he disproves the naysayers and keeps crushing it with his numbers. If you want to go big on Google Plus then you need to have Scott circled and learn from him.
- Martin Shervington– I have been a fan of Martin since the beginning. He has been helping people learn how to use Google Plus via hangouts and his page, "Plus Your Life". We all know the ladies love his accent, but he is genuinely a wonderful person. Martin's passion to teach people the value of the platform is unrivaled.
- Larry Fournillier– The way that Chef Larry Fournillier has taken Google Plus by storm is unprecedented. He has been invited to Google to cook thanks to his hangout, "Learning How To Cook Caribbean with Larry Fournillier". He is a perfect example of someone who creates great content and the Google Plus community took notice.
- Christine Degraff– She may be known as the, "#Circle Queen", on Google Plus but Christine is not a one trick pony. She has multiple hangouts weekly. She is an example of a Google Plusser who has found a way to monetize her work on the platform. Her star is rising on Google Plus, so make sure to follow her now and learn from her along the way.
- Jessica Northey– I have to admit that I am a little star struck. Jessica Northey is a social media Princess. You see, she was huge on social media before she stepped on the Google Plus red carpet. Her site CMChatLive.com is where you can keep up to date on everything happening in Country music. If you need a G.R.A.S.P. on how to do social media right make sure to circle her up. #CMChat
- Anabell Hilarski– Ok, so I am a little partial to my wife. She is doing something that very few in the Spanish community are doing. You see her interview show, "Social Media Guia", is a way for her to showcase the Spanish speaking social media gurus. Ana is the Google Plus evangelist that the Spanish community needs. Don't count this community out, I know we see an opportunity, you should also.
What do I recommend you do with these nine Google Plus Celebrities? Circle them, learn from them, emulate them, engage them and by all means say hi!

( CLICK ON RED LINK ABOVE FOR MORE INFO) Dear Brothers and Sisters, With high temperatures and brutal humidity continuing to blanket the country our members are facing dangerous heat conditions on the job. OSHA has created a Heat Safety App that can help our members stay safe on the job by providing vital safety information on mobile phones. The App allows users to calculate a job site heat index with risk levels and also get reminders about the protective measures that should be taken at that risk level to protect workers from heat-related illness. With a simple "click" users can receive reminders about drinking enough fluids, planning for and knowing what to do in an emergency, signs and symptoms of heat-related illness, and more. The Heat Safety App is free and easy to download for iPhone and Android devices. Just click here. I hope you find this information helpful for your members as we face an extremely warm and humid summer. In solidarity Larry Hanley International President

Open Letter to Community Transit CEO Emmett HeathLetter to Emmett Heath, Geri Beardsley, and Deb Osborne on behalf of the membership at ATU: Hi Emmett, Geri and Deb, It was very nice meeting you Geri and Deb, and thank you all very much for your participation in the Ride Along! Our local, under Kathleen's leadership, has been working very hard to bring the issue of operators who have schedules with no break/lunch time to the forefront. Currently, our contract states that we may eat and rest "as time permits". When no time is permitted, a very unhealthy day ensues for the person driving, without time to eat and stretch their legs. Long-term, as you can imagine, this kind of grinding schedule creates serious health problems. Elena's great attitude toward the passengers and her professional driving skills really exemplify the quality of people Community Transit has hired. As Treva explained to folks in the Planning Department recently, this company hires operators specifically for their commitment to excellent customer service, and then they are put into a workday without breaks. The standby line is "Just take your break, even if you are running late." However, as you saw, once late- we can run late for many hours of the day. Putting ourselves first often doesn't jive with giving good customer service. We worry that passengers will miss connections, or wait excessively at bus stops, call in complaints, or that we will cause hardship for other drivers who depend on us being where we are supposed to be to free up zone space. As a result, operators avoid drinking, push the speed limit and bypass using the restroom in the interest of keeping the schedule. The lack of break time significantly increased during the economic downturn. People were getting laid off and everything was all about the highest level of efficiency, and we all did our level best to make those new, tighter schedules work. Geri and I talked a bit about communication while we were on the bus, and I believe that the line of communication between the folks making the schedules and the operators driving them is broken. We need to have a reliable way to both communicate and get a response to our scheduling issues- which we don't currently have. I am very proud to be a 19 year employee of Community Transit, and proud to work for an agency that leads the way in so many arenas. Now, with Emmett's new leadership and the passage of Proposition 1, which the ATU worked very hard to support, I believe that the time has never been better to create a good working relationship between Planning and Operators. Even more important, the time has never been better to set new parameters in place for scheduling work that take into account the health and welfare of all your employees, by providing for break and rest time. Thank you again for your participation in this ride along, and taking the time to truly understand our concerns. It gives all of us much hope for the future! Kind Regards, Dani Julien Danielle Julien, Recording Secretary/Safety Officer BS Safety and Health, CWU Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 1576 2810 Lombard Ave., Suite 203 Everett, WA 98201 Office (425) 259-4544 Toll Free (800) 266-8841 Fax (425) 303-8645 www.atu1576.org
Community Transit Mini Bid Information
Starting in the June 2016 shakeup, if a mini bid is conducted due to a vacancy, the bid will be open to all employees, not only the operators below the seniority who vacated that work. For example: if operator #100 on the seniority list opens a piece of work due to retirement/ promotion, his/her work will be open to the #1 seniority person to bid on during the mini bid. We've had some operators who want to give up their straight 8 work, due to a change in their circumstances. This gives lower seniority operators the chance to have a better piece of work- by allowing those higher seniority pieces into the mix. This is just a trial for a year and the process will be revisited in the June 2017 shakeup. If it doesn't benefit the lower seniority operators- we will not agree to the change.
After years of economic downturns in the Transit Industry, it is refreshing to see things going well once again. The Union leadership, along with a lot of our members, attended several of Emmett Heath's employee meetings regarding the future of Transit in Snohomish County. During the 3rd meeting that I attended, I took notes intending to share that information with our membership in this Newsletter article. A lot of what is happening in Snohomish County is also happening in King, Pierce and Island Counties.
Recently, at a Labor Management meeting at CT, one of the assistant managers came up with the idea of getting everyone on both sides of the table to say a little something about themselves just to tell something interesting that they might not talk about. We all had something to say of interest and although what I said then is not what I am going to write about, it did turn out that we all got to know each other a little better. I decided that in this end of the year article I would share something with our membership that very few people know about me.
We are often asked to donate for various causes, most recently the employees at CT donated over $40,000.00 to the United Way annual campaign which is very commendable. Often times we scrutinize those donations wondering how much of that actually goes to the person in need and how much goes to the CEO of the organization. While I did donate, it is hard not to question the process.Read more >>>
We have grown greatly in membership this year, and with the passage of Prop one, we look forward to even more growth and new members. With total donations of $9,500.00, including $1, 00.00 from our local and $8,500.00 from the International Amalgamated Transit Union, we supported the Community Transit Now! Prop 1 campaign because we truly believe in public transit and the excellent service we can provide.
When the recession hit, our members were deeply affected by layoffs, reduced service hours and work that was now being created with greatly reduced break and turnaround times, what we drivers affectionately refer to as "Turn and Burn". We found that we had very little, and sometimes no time to get out of the seat, use the restroom, have a meal, and stretch our legs. We found that our on-time performance suffered, as well. The combined pressure of these tightened up runs along with the domino effect of getting behind in the schedule, caused many members to complain that they almost never got out of the seat.
It's false economy. True efficiency is not achieved when the company refuses to accommodate the need for rest periods, by creating schedules that are extremely difficult to drive, without ample turn around or break time.
At CT we have contract language which, in the interest of not extending our work day, waives the right to an un-paid lunch period and we also waive the right to scheduled rest breaks. Our contract basically says that we may eat and rest *as time permits*. However, we have found that the company abuses this language, as the intent of this language is not to deprive our members from any break time. I believe that with these greatly tightened schedules, the company has shown a lack of regard for their employees, who have asked time and again for relief.
Now that we are in a period of expansion again, it is our desire that the employer recognize the importance of ample scheduling, both for the health and welfare of their employees and the realistic fulfillment of the schedules they make. To do any less is a disservice.Read more >>>

NDP Trade Policy - Part 1: On trustworthy sources
A series of articles has raised alarm among many NDP members. These articles insist that the NDP leadership has quietly adopted the opposition's antiquated & dogmatic approach to trade. Of course, no such thing is occurring. The NDP leadership is merely executing a "re-branding" of our traditional - prudent & merit-based - trade policy.
In a series of articles hosted here, we will examine the NDP's contemporary trade strategy & all related issues of significance.
In this particular article, we will deconstruct the media's approach to NDP trade policy. While such an exercise may seem petty & trivial, it is absolutely required - because too many NDP members are refusing to perform due-diligence. Rather than seek clarification from official sources, members have blindly out-sourced the task of "analysis" to Liberal PR flacks (known as "political journalists" in Canada). Such sources do not convey NDP policy with any accuracy or clarity.
Campbell Clark's 'Globe & Mail' article NDP working toward balance as it crafts new foreign policy is highly representative of the majority of articles produced on this topic. It may have been "the first", thereby influencing the tone & substance of all subsequent op-ed's & reports.
Adhering to rigorous 'Media Party' standards, Campbell Clark reduces the NDP's traditional (small "c") conservative trade policy to two words: "loonie left". He insists that Canadians are "scared" & "nervous" of the NDP's past insistence on reciprocity & net-benefit. This is clearly news to Canadians! Ignoring apocalyptic warnings from a cabal of finance elites & opposition parties, Canadians recently chose to catapult the "loonie left" from 4th place to "official opposition" status.
Continuing his vacation from contemporary history, Campbell Clark offers a theory of evolution: "Just over 10 years ago, the NDP was expressing sympathy for the anti-globalization protests at World Trade Organization meetings in Seattle. It is now going to urge Canada to try to reinvigorate the WTO's global trade talks". Clark would have readers believe that no one is capable of walking (expressing sympathy for protestors) and chewing gum (supporting WTO talks) at the same time. This would be news to the Nobel prize-winning economist who served as chief economist & vice president of the World Bank! Like the NDP, Joseph Stiglitz has both explicitly sided with WTO protestors & called for reinvigorated WTO talks.
Having established his parallel universe, Campbell Clark then proposes a "basic character test voters use to judge fitness to govern". According to Clark, this "real test" would have the NDP approve of "a real trade deal, with the European Union" and "the bid by China's state-owned CNOOC for Alberta's Nexen Inc". Thankfully, I need not interject on this absurd point...as Campbell Clark himself concedes that the Canadian public rejects the validity of his self-devised "test". He admits: "the trade issue is not the big vote-getter in elections".
Tucked in-between all this fanciful conjecture & framing, are carefully edited statements from NDP officials. Naturally, these statements are presented as affirmations of the reporters own biases. To be fair, there seems to be a "quid pro quo" at play here. The NDP allows Campbell Clark to manipulate the record in his exercise of Liberal self-validation. While Clark blindly assumes the role of "useful idiot", disseminating a public impression of the NDP's choosing. This dangerous game will be explored in a later article.
But while the dangerous game is played, the substance of contemporary NDP trade policy remains obscured. In the next article, we will explore the content & specifics of contemporary NDP trade policy...relying on official, rather than second-hand accounts.

Here is a problem I see. You say that people shouldn't trust the mainstream media in Canada (maybe you don't use those exact words, but that's the message I get). But when it comes to winning people over with arguments, what media sources are good to use? What I mean is, aren't people going to take your more seriously if you site the Globe & Mail than a blogger such as yourself?ReplyDelete
That would be a gross misinterpretation.
You presented me with a general query, so I can only offer you a general response.
Facts continue to exist, events continue to occur, and research continues to be published. For the most part, such "raw data" (for lack of a better term) gets reported.
The problem with contemporary journalism is that we have tolerated the "padding" of articles. That valuable raw data is now surrounded by colour commentary & conjecture. This is done with the intention of leading readers to certain interpretations & conclusions.
Lazy readers will read and & be lead like some dumb sheep. A wise reader will read & distinguish between an article's valuable "raw data"...and the worthless "framing" surrounding it.
Hope that helps,
Dan Tan

The Cleveland Indians led the American League's Central Division for much of this season, but they've hit some tough times recently, and now are just trying to stay in contention. Thursday night the Tribe will be looking to salvage a split of a four-game series in Boston against the AL East-leading Red Sox (7:10 pm Eastern).
Cleveland won the opener of this series Monday night 9-6, but Boston has taken the next two games by scores of 3-2 and 4-3, both on ninth-inning hits by Jacoby Ellsbury.
So the Indians, who have lost 15 of their last 22 games, sit in second place in the AL Central, four games back of division-leading Detroit.
Boston, meanwhile, which has won 23 of its last 30, leads the AL East by one game over the second-place Yankees.
Justin Masterson (8-7, 2.56) hits the hill for the Tribe Thursday against newly acquired Erik Bedard (4-7, 3.45) for the Sox. As of Thursday morning 5Dimes.com is listing Boston as a -166 favorite, with an over/under of nine.
Masterson continues along with a solid season. Over his last three starts Masterson has allowed just three earned runs on 17 hits in 22 2/3 innings pitched, walking two and striking out 17. Cleveland is 12-10 in Masterson's starts this year, with the over/unders going 8-14.
Masterson has started one game vs. the Red Sox this year and two last year, holding them to three ER on 10 hits in 21 2/3 IP. Cleveland won all three of those games.
Bedard is making his first start for Boston after coming over in a trade with Seattle last week. In his first start since spending time on the disabled list because of a sprained knee last Friday Bedard got bopped for five ER in an inning and a third vs. Tampa Bay. But before that he had been going pretty good; in his three previous starts Bedard had allowed just three ER on 10 hits in 20 IP. The Mariners, a team that's 14 games under .500 overall, went 8-8 in Bedard's starts this season, with the O/Us going 7-8.
Bedard has started once vs. the Indians this year, and got clipped for six ER on 10 hits in just four IP.
Boston is 35-20 at home this season, while Cleveland is 25-30 on the road.
The Tribe leads the season series with the Sox five games to four, and six of those nine games have played under the posted totals.
Over/unders are 51-51 in Indians games this season, 52-49 in Sox games, and 31-20 in games played at Fenway Park.
As for Thursday's game, while Cleveland has struggled a bit lately we like the way Masterson has kept his composure and continued his solid season. And his numbers vs. Boston are very good. So we'll go with the Indians and the underdog price.

To see the pods in the natural state,

I love these paulownia projects. Great job!
Have a great weekend.
Your wreath is so pretty, JoAnn! I am unfamiliar with the paulownia. Is it a type of tree? We must not have them around here but those pods make a perfect material for a natural wreath!ReplyDelete
Hey Jane! they are also called the Empress tree - they make beautiful spring flowers, that the bees loves, and these hulls are what is left. Thanks for your sweet comment and visit!Delete
This is fantastic! !!!! What a great idea. Thanks for your visit and nice comment on the spoonful blog. I am still in awe when I look at my "new" countertops. The pressed tin back splash is actually plastic... they sell them in sheets at home depot...and I just glued them in place.
Have a great new week.
Wow, that is a fantastic wreath. It is about as labor intensive as when I stuck 400 flag toothpick into a Styrofoam wreath to make a flag wreath (if you search flag wreath on my blog you should find it is you want a look). I loved that you used natural elements, it came out great. LauraReplyDelete
This wreath is awesome! Visiting from It so CheriReplyDelete
Oh!! I love this even more as a sunflower (which I adore)! Beautiful!! :)ReplyDelete
Thanks Denise, actually, it was my husband that said, 'you're gonna make that a sunflower, right?', after I had painted it white... sometimes it takes another set of eyes to 'see' ;)Delete
This is such a creative way to use the pods. Your wreath turned out great. I love it!ReplyDelete
How creative and beautiful...Blessings, BeckyReplyDelete
Beautiful work! Thanks JoAnn for visiting me & for your sweet comment :)ReplyDelete
I love this one too! It makes a perfect sunflower!ReplyDelete
So creative! Great job! Thanks so much for joining our Countdown to Fall link party! Have a great week! :)
I'm so glad that I'm following you! What a gorgeous wreath and very well done. Thanks for sharing:)
Hi, what a wonderfully sweet comment to wake up to! I can't think of a better way to start the day ;) And so glad you're following along. Have a wonderful Wednesday!Delete
Wow, Joann, this is so amazing, it looks just like a sunflower. You have a lot of patience. Thanks for sharing this!ReplyDelete
This is just amazing - awesome job!!!ReplyDelete
What cool looking seed pods! They make the perfect sunflower wreath! And I've never seen the star shaped ones for the center either. Not sure where you're located & if these are plants that would grow in northern Indiana.ReplyDelete
Thanks for commenting. They are from the tree call Paulownia, aka Empress tree. Not sure what their cold hardiness is, but they thrive down here in our S GA tropical weather. I'm trying to gather the rest of them before they hit the ground, which ruins them. The leaves are falling off and it will be bare til spring time. Again thanks for your sweet comment. If you'll go to my 5 Point Star post, you'll see how I take them apart.Delete
Sharing your lovely wreath on this weeks All Star Block Party!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Joann this is gorgeous!!

Not a good test strip in my opinion
I tried to to see if I could get the INFINITY glucose meter to work for me and it was just not going to happen. With coding errors as the strips did not get enough blood glucose or whatever the issue was, it did not work. I took the batteries out and did a reset, but that failed to fix these errors. With another offer to get a free meter from another brand I jumped on that before calling the manufacture. Maybe if I called them the situation could have been resolved, but I just wanted to get in with a working meter and not risk any more malfunctions. I was hoping to find on here more reviews so I can see if this was a unique experience. Anyways that's my two cents on the INFINITY Test Strips.

IN the clash at the Supreme Court last week between old-fashioned personal privacy and newfangled law enforcement technology, few people predicted privacy would be the clear-cut winner. But it turned out that way when the court ruled that the police need a warrant to aim a thermal imaging device at the outside of a house to look for patterns of heat that could suggest indoor marijuana cultivation.
The ruling is the latest of several decisions suggesting that this famously law-and-order court has begun to display a new skepticism toward the arguments that police and prosecutors bring before it. And the unanticipated shift is creating unusual alliances and unpredictable outcomes.
The reasons for the subtle but perceptible shift are not immediately obvious, given that there have been no personnel changes on the court since 1994. But if the court's roster has not changed, the country has; with violent crime at its lowest rate in 30 years, the national conversation about crime is finding a new focus. It is almost as if the public, liberated from the burdensome presence of crime, is free to express doubts about the civic costs of a whole range of crime-fighting strategies, from racial profiling to high-tech eavesdropping to low-tech drug-sniffing dogs. Even capital punishment is subject to greater debate now than at any time since the mid-1970's.
''The country is nervous about privacy, about the discretion the police exercise and the lengths to which they go,'' Barry Friedman, a law professor at New York University who is studying the relationship between the Supreme Court's behavior and public opinion, said in an interview last week. ''It's become a high-profile issue. Public opinion doesn't escape the justices, and the court itself is starting to get squeamish. On such a closely divided court, it doesn't take much to turn them.''Continue reading the main story
Indeed, last week's vote, in Kyllo v. United States, was 5 to 4. But it was not the usual 5-to-4, conservative-liberal split. Justice Antonin Scalia wrote the majority opinion in a case that conformed neatly to his view that the Constitution should be interpreted according to the intent of its framers; modern technology that enables the police to gain knowledge that once would have necessitated a physical entry into a private home, he said, requires a warrant. Not to make that leap across time, Justice Scalia said, ''would leave the homeowner at the mercy of advancing technology.''
Other cases this term also demonstrate the court's new concerns. Defendants won two other cases that involved the Fourth Amendment's prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures. In a case from Indianapolis, the justices ruled that police roadblocks where trained dogs sniffed stopped cars to detect drugs were unconstitutional. In a case from Charleston, S.C., the court ruled that hospital workers could not test maternity patients for illegal drug use without their consent and then turn over evidence of drug use to the police.
Prosecutors in both invoked the ''special needs'' doctrine the court developed in the 1990's to uphold government drug testing programs to argue that fighting the war on drugs justifies dispensing with the amendment's usual requirements. But the court, in two 6-to-3 decisions, instead served notice that it was the doctrine, not the amendment, that had limits.
Because law enforcement ''always serves some broader social purpose or objective,'' Justice John Paul Stevens said for the majority in the Charleston case, a worthy goal was not a license to circumvent the need for a warrant or at least suspicion of individual wrongdoing.
The exception this term was the Texas seat belt case, in which the court ruled that the police had discretion to make a full custodial arrest for a minor traffic offense, like not wearing a seat belt. The surprise in this 5-to-4 decision was less the outcome than the lineup, with Justice David H. Souter deserting his usual allies to write the majority opinion and Justice Sandra Day O'Connor warning in dissent that the decision carried ''a grave potential for abuse.''
ONE defense-oriented Fourth Amendment expert, Professor Tracey Maclin of Boston University Law School, said the seat belt case was a serious loss that outweighed the victories for defendants in the other cases because once the police make an arrest, they can conduct extensive searches. ''What it means is that for the minorities and the longhairs of the world, it's business as usual from this court,'' he said.
The path through the tangled vines of Fourth Amendment doctrine has never been straight or smooth. In three important Fourth Amendment cases last term, the court gave similarly mixed messages. On the one hand, it ruled that police officers conducted an unconstitutional search when they walked down the aisle of a long-distance bus and squeezed passengers' overhead luggage to feel for drugs. Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist wrote that 7-to-2 majority opinion. The court also ruled -- unanimously -- that an anonymous tip that a person was carrying a gun was not, by itself, sufficient to justify a stop-and-frisk search.
On the other hand, the court ruled that fleeing at the mere sight of a police officer could be conduct suspicious enough to justify a stop-and-frisk. The court was unanimous on that general rule, too, though it divided 5 to 4 on its application to the particular case.
''It's refreshing that the court is not quite predictable these days,'' said another Fourth Amendment expert, Prof. James J. Tomkovicz of the University of Iowa Law School, who filed a brief for the defendant in the thermal imaging case. ''Everyone is taking these cases one at a time, trying to do what they think is right.''
Among the recent cases, a consistent theme is a new sensitivity to what Professor Tomkovicz called the ''threshold'' question. What is a search? When does the Fourth Amendment begin to operate?
But more important than the details of any one case, he said, is the court's message, both to the lower courts and to law enforcement officials, ''that there are constraints, that the Constitution is alive and well.''Continue reading the main story

New Music Ensemble embarked on week-long tour
Posted on November 21, 2011
The Grand Valley New Music Ensemble, directed by associate professor Bill Ryan, embarked on its first, week-long tour. Assistant professor Jonathan Nichol, joined the student ensemble on saxophone.
They performed a program of music with Michigan connections composed within the past 10 years, including the premiere of Grand Valley student Daniel Rhode's work "Flickering Pixels," for ensemble, electronics, and video projection.
The tour made stops at Shenandoah University (Winchester, Virginia), Mobtown Modern's Music Series (Baltimore, Maryland), the Atlas Performing Arts Center (Washington, D.C.) and the Settlement School (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). The ensemble also took part in panel discussions, and lead a workshop on improvisation in 21st Century Classical Music.
"I wanted to give the students a taste of what it's like to be on the road, performing every night in a different city," Ryan said. "Since many of these students want to make a career out of performing, it only makes sense to give them exposure to what this kind of life is like."

King William IV
One of London's oldest gay pubs, the King William IV in Hampstead has been a gay hangout since the 1930s. There's a good mixture of clientele, many of whom pop in for a few drinks after a walk on nearby Hampstead Heath. You'll often find a long queue outside for the adjacent crepe stall (also highly recommended!).

In our everyday lives, it seems we tend to rush, rush, rush and not look up.
It's not that we are not watching where we are going, or are wondering around aimlessly. We all have routines, jobs, chores or responsibilities. Call it what you will, we are always in motion.
Now there is nothing wrong with being busy, though at times we get so busy we work ourselves into a rut.
This gives us tunnel vision, sort of like a horse with blinders on we tend just to look ahead, not taking in our natural surroundings.
Of course I too am guilty of walking around with these blinders. In fact I am embarrassed to say this, I just recently realized how much our vast countryside looks like a postcard or painting.
Now don't get me wrong, I've always thought our region is beautiful with its wildlife, plants, landscapes and sunsets.
However, as I was traveling on State Highway 209, I noticed several instances where the horizon would make for a great postcard or Southwest painting.
I decided to drive along some other state and county roads and found several locations that would make for a picture perfect snap shot.
There was one time I even ran into some people taking pictures of the very landscape I was enjoying.
I think I've taken my surroundings for granted. Yes the wind blows and we have not had a good rain in quite some time.
However, when you take a moment to take it all in, you can see past all of that and what you see, depending on the time of day, can be quite wonderful.
I'm starting to think those people I have seen running around town and stopped on the side of the road with cameras aren't so crazy after all.

While there are many things still up in the air about this weekend's upcoming NBA playoff matchups, one thing's for sure: The East is the Beast (sorry, Kobe).
Wade, Rose, James, Carmelo, Howard; the list goes on.
But what makes many of the Eastern Conference's best teams great is their abundance of role players and unsung heroes. Guys who may or may not start, might not get all the glitz or glam but still have the potential to change a game with a big shot or a tough defensive play.
Here's a look at some of the East's best role players and unsung heroes going into the playoffs.

New agreement between Mack Trucks and UAW
On May 31, 2009 members of the U.S. trade union, the United Auto Workers, approved a new 40-month Master Agreement with the Volvo Group's subsidiary Mack Trucks. The agreement includes the establishment of an independent trust that will completely eliminate Mack's commitments for providing healthcare to retired employees, their surviving partners and for dependent family members, as well as for UAW members who retire in the future. This had a negative impact of SEK 870 M on the Volvo Group's operating income during the second quarter of 2009 and a negative impact of the same amount on net debt. The trust must be approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, a process that can take up to 12 months.

SIM, Gordon Edward Royal
(October 4, 1952-March 9, 2008)
Our dear friend Gord passed away peacefully, at home, during his Sunday afternoon nap after a long, courageous and dignified fight against cancer. He was triumphant in the face of inevitable defeat for he valued Friendship above all else, and the value of his Friendships was never more unassailable than at his life's end. Kind, loving, fun, surprising, honest, dedicated, dependable, all those wonderful qualities bundled into one great person. Predeceased by his father and mother, Clarence and Dorothy SIM and nephew Richard REID. He is survived by his sister Patricia REID (Don,) nephew Rod REID (Heather) and their children Parker and Brooklyn; Uncle and Aunt, Ted and Celia GRIGG, cousins Janine LEACH/LEECH/LEITCH (Peter), Kenneth GRIGG (Sue) and Catherine FREIVOKH and their families, and his godchildren: Morgan McCONVILLE, Scott TINDLE, Willie SCOTT, Peter SEHMER, and Taylor JACKSON. Gord had an incredible circle of Friends from every spectrum of his rich life, but in particular his family would like to thank his oldest Friends for their support and care in the last year: John and Mary McCONVILLE, Blake and Dorie POTTINGER, Maud KILLAM, Cathy NOEL, Margaret ROBINSON, Robyn WOODWARD, and Peter ARMSTRONG. The support and love Gord has had from his many Friends in the class of 1970 at St. George's, colleagues from his years in federal politics, and from Friends at Rocky Mountaineer Vacations has been much appreciated. We would also like to thank Doctor John Sehmer, and the physicians and staff of the British Columbia Cancer Agency. Gord's political career began with the Young Conservatives of Canada. He graduated from University of British Columbia - Class of 1974 and worked for many years for the Hon. John Fraser, P.C., O.C., OBC, Q.C. in Ottawa and Vancouver before joining the Rocky Mountaineer Vacations as a train manager for the last 14 years. Gord served on the boards of numerous community organizations and was a life long participant in the campaigns of many civic, provincial and federal candidates. Gord looked as great decked out in his kilt for the Sir John A. MacDonald Society as he did riding with Friends at Douglas Lake. A bit of a George Hamilton, our Gord liked to tan year round either in some exotic local or on the sunny shores of Savary and Gambier Islands. He enjoyed traveling, watching the Canucks, celebrating the achievements of loved ones, and cooking dinner for Friends. He has left us with amazing memories. 'How wonderful life is when you're in the world' surely was written for our Gord. In lieu of flowers donations may be made in Gord's memory to the British Columbia Cancer Foundation. A service in memory of Gord will be held at Saint Mary's Anglican Church at 2490 W. 37th in Vancouver on March 25, 2008 at 3: 00 p.m.
