Chris Wilson? Who is that? Tommy Ricker is horrible.
The best golfer in Greeneville right now is Sasha Catron.
#2 Sep 21, 2010
God I would hate to be named Sasha. What were his parents thinking?!
#3 Sep 21, 2010
Tommy's golf skills has completely paid for a very expensive private college education. Plus he's really a good guy so don't start on him please.
#4 Sep 21, 2010
Back in the old days, the best golfer by far was Dandy Dan. They came from near and far to challenge him , but left beaten and penniless. He would have dominated the circuit, but for a balky putter.
#6 Sep 22, 2010
The best golfer? You take the top 10 golfers in Greene County, put them on a course they have never played from 7000 yards and then you'll find out who can play. The best golf tournament that has ever been in Greene County was the Sun Tournament. 2 weekends and 4 differerent courses. Link Hills, Nolichuckey, Graysburg and Twin Creeks. I'd love to see this Tournament come back!
#7 Sep 22, 2010
Put the top 10 on a tough venue, and you would see very few scores under 77. I've seen Hogan, Snead in person toward the end of their careers..... Nicklaus, Palmer, Player, Casper, Norman, Ballesteros and many others in person and in their prime. We don't have that talent here. And yes, I am a golfer.
#8 Sep 22, 2010
niblick i would like to see your list
#9 Sep 22, 2010
You're just dying to see your name on here aren't you
#10 Sep 22, 2010
I've seen most of them play as well. If you put pre 1985 clubs and balls in these young guys hands, only 1 or 2 could break 80. I've shot under par on every course in Greene County from the tips back in the day and I don't see these young guys today with the shots in their bag to do it. Some of us older golfers could still break 80 with those clubs. I'd love to see a tournament where only pre 1985 clubs aloud. We couldn't find enough balls like the good old Club Specials but the clubs would be good enough.
#11 Sep 22, 2010
I've played Club Specials, Spalding Dots, Kro-Flites, Maxfli Reds, Podos and many others. If people don't understand the difference in equipment, let them try to hit a persimmon or laminated maple 3 wood off a downhill lie like # 15 at Link Hills.
#12 Sep 22, 2010
I'm amazed that they don't shoot lower scores. On the local courses, most of them just need a driver and a wedge. Forty years ago, you had to absolutely hammer a putt of 40-60 feet. You had to take a fairly long backswing with a wristy stroke or you couldn't get it to the hole. Even a 20 footer took a pretty good rap. It's hard to be real precise when you're hitting a putt that hard. Years ago, the lies around the green were more spotty and bare. You had to hit considerably more club on your second shot and the ball spun and curved a lot more. The clubs had to be hit with more precision with 150cc solid wood drivers and small non offset blades. Before fairway watering , you had to learn to bounce it into the green. It's still not an easy game but I'm surprised that the scores around here aren't better.
#13 Sep 22, 2010
I would like to add one thing and get an older player's perspective. To the person who said that Dandy Dan was mediocre at best, I was on the wrong end of a 68 that he shot from the tips at Link Hills in a big "gangsome" action in the 1970's on a cool, blustery day when it was the lowest score by 6 or 7 shots in a large group of the best players at the time. I personally think that a 68 shot at Link Hills 30 some years ago with the clubs, balls and course conditioning of that time is a hell of a lot better than a 68 shot today at the same place. Opinions?
#14 Sep 23, 2010
Yeah, I'd like to see uhmty's name on here too.
#15 Sep 23, 2010
Why Of course, I am the best golfer in Greeneville. I hold the trophy 20 years and still running. Haven't you seen my engraved clubs & hand stitched leather bag ? I always have a caddy, he has to tell me which club to use. Now what about the worst golfer in town ? Name some
#16 Sep 23, 2010
#17 Sep 23, 2010
My Top Five
1)Joe Meade
2) Todd Ricker
3) Sasha Catron
4) Justin Jeffers
5) Kevin Kinser
#18 Sep 23, 2010
justin jeffers lol
#19 Sep 24, 2010
old man..... quit fooling yourself....some of these guys could play with anything
#20 Sep 24, 2010
I agree on a couple of them but not most. I have a full set of clubs that I shot 68 with at Graysburg in 1985. I'll bet any of them 1K that they can't meet me at Graysburg and break 80 on the original 18 from the tips using those clubs! You said they can play with anything. I even have 3 new Club Specials they can use too! OK, any takers?
#21 Sep 24, 2010
I don't quite agree with that. Are you saying that you were at least 12 strokes better then than they are now? I am guessing that the grips on those clubs must be real slick and the wood heads cracked, because I think they are good enough in spite of the fact they are not used to playing with old clubs. Meade is old enough to have played with stuff from that era, and good enough to easily break 80 with anything. I also still have old Power Bilt woods and MacGregor blades from the 80's. I don't play with them, though.

Chapter 60: Confessions and Song
Eru's mind reeled as the impact of the words sunk into her brain. For a moment she even stopped breathing she was in such shook. However, she wasn't the leader of the Sistren from nothing. She began collecting her thoughts and calming herself. It was a book after all. It could be enchanted and even if it was that was no matter. It was simply a spell.
Then a loud shout scattered her nearly coherent thoughts. "Why me!" Maine was screaming at us. "All of you have secrets! Aliryia, you've been sick for days and you haven't told anyone." Aliryia stepped forward towards the girl who turned, looked at her a moment and burst into tears. "I'm... I'm sorry. I thought that I wouldn't be allowed to stay..."
Her eyes filled with the images of her past and she then cradled her head in her hands. After a moment she lifted her head slowly and confessed, "It was my fault. I killed him." All the girls stood open-mouthed at this. Even Aliryia stood frozen. Eru could feel the pain Maine was bearing. She stepped forward. She held her arms open to her. Sobbing, she ran into her embrace. She held her for awhile before she brought her down to the floor and put her head against hers. "Maine." Eru said calmly and encouragingly.
Then the words simply flew out of her mouth until the story had completed itself. There were now no tears, only simple pain. Eru looked at her and realized that this was one wound she could never be free of. However, Eru did know a way to change it from an open wound to a scar.

Learning to shoot again : Starting Over
Wow! Some story. Glad all of you are OK. The after action report was excellent, and shows good thinking on your part.
Anyone who thinks that they won't be scared in this situation, has never been through it. Natural events like tornado's, hurricanes, earthquakes, massive fires, etc., make us realize we are very small and fragile indeed.
The warm weather has costs in terms of violent weather.I'll take the cold weather with an occasional
hurricane that may happen between June and November.I must confess living in the same area for
51 years we are starting to see toronados in the Summer. It's 6 degrees right now ,the old pellet stove
is running hard 80 pounds in 24 hours it's set at 75.Time to boil some water get some moisure in the air.
it's only 28%and it needs to be in high 30-50 to get maximum confort.6 weeks more of this one or two
noreasters to go though and then Spring.
We have a couple flashlights that are rechargeable that stay plugged in, when the lights go off at night the base shines like a nightlight so you can see them or find your way through a hallway. When the power goes out completely, the flashlights automatically turn on. Makes them super easy to find when you need them!! I still keep battery operated ones for backup in case a power outage lasts longer than the charge on the flashlight, but they give us immediate light which I love. We found them at Costco last year.
THESE throughout the house for that reason.

As an update, I have reflective tape installed down the stairs and on the path to the shelter under the house. The drawer in the room beside the trapdoor has been cleared of everything except flashlights. Battery operated touch LED lights are mounted under the light switches. Dynamo flashlights and lantern are on the way.

Micheal Ryder is a massive upgrade over a half hearted Erik Cole, he will be a good fit in your line up, as well as the ability to put up the points and rise to the occasion in big games.
The third round draft pick is like a cherry on top for Montreal in this situation as I'm sure you'll find Cole retiring this upcoming off season.
You're putting too much weight on the retirement think. That's a CBA thing, IMHO it's completely unrelated to his slow start. If he had 10 gaols already nobody would be bringing it up.
He's a notorious slow starter PLUS they started with no preseason and had an 8 month off season, making it worse.
That being said expecting 35 goals the last 3 years of his contract is probably not realistic either, I think he settles in as a 25-25-50 player based on about 80 games.

The Voice of Jesus (8 of 58) by John Barnett
This content is part of a series.The Voice of Jesus (8 of 58)
Series: Revelation - From Now to Forever
John Barnett
John Heard the Voice of Jesus on Patmos
Revelation 1:9-16 I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet,11 saying, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last," and, "What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."12 Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands,13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band.14 His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire;15 His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters;16 He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. NKJV
God Created Us to Hear the Voice of Jesus
Now go back and meet the 1st two humans on earth. We need to listen to the inspired, accurate and divine recounting of their experience of hearing the Voice of Jesus in the Garden of Eden.
Try to think with me of life as a perfect human (not life with a perfect human, that is marriage!) and imagine what it was like in the dawn of creation. Your first memory would be waking up in God's garden, Eden. You would remember a comfortable world with no extremes of hot and cold, no storms, no disasters to fear. A secure home with no pestering bugs, no poisonous snakes, no deadly spiders. Just the continual beauty of fragrant and color filled flo ...

Smarter data for smarter roads
Roads and highways are a nation's busiest transport network. In the UK, 90% of passenger miles and 65% of freight miles are travelled by road. In the US, the figures are 87% and 40%.
Well-mapped, congestion-free roads are important to a country's economic performance.
But, responsibility is frequently split over several regional and functional agencies: mapping, maintenance, traffic control and environmental impact.
We help road management agencies create and manage a current, holistic view of their national or state road networks.
"We are delighted to be awarded this contract by Arizona Department of Transport and to be able to work with James Meyer, his team and Works Consulting, their primary contractor. The solution we are implementing will provide significant automation to their processes and we look forward to a great partnership working together in the future."

Arizona Department of Transport chooses 1Spatial Technology to Validate its State-Wide Road Network
The Arizona Department of Transport has bought 1Spatial's 1Integrate product to validate its state-wide road network. The Department will validate and integrate its own road network information with regular updates from multiple contributing government bodies within the state.Read more
Build a holistic, consistent and current view of your highways data
Our automated, rules-based solutions for data management turn data merging, error checking and edge-matching from time-consuming, manual tasks into repeatable routines. We automatically fix common problems, ensure compliance with standards and identify issues that require expert attention.
You can be sure that you have an authoritative, complete and current view of your highways network. And, that makes it easier to integrate other data sets such as traffic density data, speed limits, road-works, pollution levels or any other information.
You can share information with partner agencies and automatically validate data updates received from them so that everyone is working from the same, up-to-date view.
The Arizona Department of Transportation recently purchased our 1Integrate product to automate the validation and integration of roads information from 32 different sources to support its annual submissions of Certified Public Road Mileage and ARNOLD data to the FHWA.

Agreed. For some reason when you said 'very similar to a non-distributed environment' I thought of 'single threaded' for some wierd reason. I guess a servlet developers environment is similar to a non distributed one as you suggest, but it is a multi threaded one with resepct to session state (and application) state. I think alot of developers don't realize this. e.g. In the early days of getting to grips with the whole J2EE platform it seems natural to use the HttpSession to store a reference to a stateful session bean - which could break as there is a chance that it could be used by more than one thread at the same time. So either some locking mechansim should be used or the HttpSession should store a pool of references to the EJB rather than an individual EJB reference.

Tottenham Hotspur head to the City of Manchester Stadium in need of some big-game inspiration.
City are undoubtedly in pole position to seal their first visit to the Champions League, but if they are to be denied, Spurs must start by winning at odds of 14/5 on Tuesday night.
The fact City are 9/10 illustrates the lack of faith in the visitors but they are still capable of adding another twist before the season is out, especially when you consider they have won this fixture six times in the last seven meetings in Manchester.
Ordinarily the 11/5 draw might be considered a decent return against the big-spenders, but it would be all but fatal for a return trip to Europe's top table, so surely we can expect a rip-roaring approach from Harry Redknapp's men.
Over 2.5 Goals is 10/11 if you see it turning into a goalfest, with Under 2.5 available at 4/5 if you foresee a more cagey affair. You can back Spurs +1 goal at 3/4 if you want to play things safe or else take 7/4 for them in the Draw No Bet market.
Goalscorers have hardly come to the fore of late but Jermain Defoe hit the net at the weekend and is 13/5 to repeat the trick, while the likes of Rafael Van der Vaart (8/1 first goal) and Aaron Lennon (80/1 first goal in 1-1 draw) will have to step up if the three points is to be won.
Meanwhile, the Sportingbet Spurs Zone has delivered some great prizes this season and if you want to play at White Hart Lane in our 2010/11 finale – now is the time to act!
The deadline for entries is 12.00 Midday on May 10th so there's no time to waste if you want to take on Sportingbet's staff team on May 24th. Good luck!

Huawei P10 smartphone review
King of the mid-range or should you pay more an Android phone?
King of the mid-range or should you pay more an Android phone?
There's nothing better than Huawei's new Leica flagship Android smartphone
Cheap yet cheerful. But is this the budget android phone to buy?
This cheap Android smartphone is a mid-range winner.
Gimmicks aside this is the best android smartphone you can buy
The hype around Samsung's Galaxy S8 has been off the charts - something that normally makes us wary. However, having spent some time with the device today our hopes are heightened.
Samsung delayed the launch of its flagship Samsung Galaxy S8 Android smartphone, but it has launched it's mid-range Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 model. We were keen to have a look and see if it was worth bothering with.
All of the phone manufacturers are launching their new, best phones. This is LG's new flagship. What does it look like and is it any good?
Many people here haven't heard of Oppo but the company is HUGE in China and it makes some seriously good phones.
Computerworld's Matt Hamblen, just back from Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, details the big announcements from the show. Hint: It's about more than just smartphones.
The Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe is also getting Android 7.0, while Huawei is offering a Nougat beta test for the Honor 6X.
Venerable smartphone brands Motorola, Nokia and BlackBerry got new life at Mobile World Congress 2017, largely due to the influence of Chinese and Finnish manufacturers that licensed the names.
LG swings for the fences with the G6, a flagship that dispenses with the gimmicks and packs a ton of screen into a slim body.
Both phones bring feature an Art Deco design with a lot of emphasis on camera quality and audio features.
You soon-to-be Verizon iPhone 4 customers can learn from the experiences of others. Take it from iPhone old-timers, you're about to enter a magical world of awesome apps running on the most simplistic, addictive device on the planet.
When users had unlimited data there was no reason to be concerned with how or where that data was being consumed. Since AT&T dropped unlimited data in favor of tiered data caps, though, users have struggled to understand data usage, and now AT&T is f...
Once upon a time, a phone was just a phone: It simply made and received calls. The only security you worried about was if someone had picked up in the other room to listen in.
WARNING: Overclocking is not for the faint of heart. Do not attempt to hack your phone unless you understand and accept the risks of turning it into a useless "brick."
Many reasons exist for why you might want or need to "security wipe" a BlackBerry, or completely erase all personal data stored on your handheld: You got a new smartphone and plan to retire the older device; you're trading in your existing BlackBerry...

HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
A smarter way to print for busy small business owners, combining speedy printing with scanning and copying, making it easier to produce high quality documents and images at a touch of a button.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
I've had a multifunction printer in the office going on 10 years now. It was a neat bit of kit back in the day -- print, copy, scan, fax -- when printing over WiFi felt a bit like magic. It's seen better days though and an upgrade's well overdue. This HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 looks like it ticks all the same boxes: print, copy, scan, and fax. (Really? Does anyone fax anything any more? I guess it's good to know the facility's there, just in case.) Printing over WiFi is more-or- less standard these days.
HP OfficeJet Pro 8730
As a freelance writer who is always on the go, I like my technology to be both efficient and effective so I can do my job well. The HP OfficeJet Pro 8730 Inkjet Printer ticks all the boxes in terms of form factor, performance and user interface.
Windows 10 for Business / Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
Windows 10 / HP Spectre x360
Ultimately, I think the Windows 10 environment is excellent for me as it caters for so many different uses. The inclusion of the Xbox app is also great for when you need some downtime too!
Windows 10 / Lenovo Yoga 910
For me, the Xbox Play Anywhere is a great new feature as it allows you to play your current Xbox games with higher resolutions and better graphics without forking out extra cash for another copy. Although available titles are still scarce, but I'm sure it will grow in time.

Please contact Nancy (email@example.com) for more information about this pet.
This is Penny!! She is about 10 months old, and a sweetheart! I pulled her from the shelter right before they were killing. She is a wonderful, active girl who needs an active person or family. The more I get to know her, the more I thought she was definitely lab (she loves to collect our items!) but something else. I think she has a lot of Vizsla in her. Her energy level points to that, as does her temperment.
Penny has a loving, friendly temperament. She loves everyone and everything - dogs, cats, kids, people! She is about 40 pounds and is already spayed, has all her shots and is ready for your home. She was food protective of her food with the other dogs, but we have been working on that, and she is 99.9% better about it as she realizes that food is always available here. Still, she needs to go to a family who will continue working with her on this and I wouldn't adopt her to anyone with very young children, as I haven't seen her with toddlers near her food and I don't now if she would see a very young child as human or part of her pack.
Penny needs to go to an active family, couple or single. This is not a couch potato dog. If you are looking for a hiking partner, a swimming buddy or a running buddy, she would be perfect for you. She would be fine with a family who would take her with them, but please don't consider her if you crate your dog while you work, and then when you go out after work. This would be a terrible life for her.
If you can give Penny the life she deserves, please email me at email@example.com for an application. Thank you for considering a rescue dog.

Lazy Muthafukkaz Of The Day
6 comments:
I love the light bulb and the ORANGE car! Lazy, perhaps, but some of them are downright ingenious! :)ReplyDelete
Ha! The empty toilet paper rolls all over the floor and especially that car full of junk made me twitch. I can tolerate a certain amount of laziness but not when it crosses over into being a trashy slob. I don't like living (or driving) in a mess.ReplyDelete
The sticker on the apple made me laugh.
I wonder if the fat kid in the grocery cart is still there.ReplyDelete
The car made me itch all over.ReplyDelete
Totally guilty of driving the empty garbage pails up my driveway.ReplyDelete
A lot of these were very funny, thanks! Being on the LOTD email list I have a suggestion, and that is to put the day's title, such as Lazy M'z into the email title. That way when I'm scrolling through my mails a few days/weeks/months later I can easily find the one I've gotten inspired to forward. Just the LOTD title doesn't help much.ReplyDelete

The RIAs seem to be a lot of gun for the money. I picked up a GI .38 Super a couple of months ago and liked it well enough that yesterday I bought a GI .45 as a gift for my son.

I purchased a Rock Island Armory Officers model a while back. Out of the box it had most of the options that you will find on more expensive pistols, but at a reasonable price. I paid $519.00 for the gun as is shown. The fit and finish is as good as a lot of factory 1911 pistols, and better than some. A safety check showed that everything was in working order.I had not done a "fluff & buff" on this one before taking it to the range, but because of the amount of oil in the gun I completely disassembled it for cleaning and inspection.
The range ammo I used was Winchester Ranger, and some 230gr fmj reloads of my own making. The gun fed both cartridges well with no FTF, of FTE. The picture speaks for itself, I think that the little pistol will hold a better group, once it is broken in a bit, but it was good for a 3 1/2 inch defensive pistol at 25 ft.
I really can't think of many upgrades to this pistol, it came from the factory with a solid guide rod, beavertail safety and lightweight trigger. Overall I would give it a 9 out of 10, and would gladly purchase another.
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier
and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the
service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the
love and thanks of man and woman."
-- Thomas Paine (The American Crisis, No. 1, 19 December 1776)
The RIAs seem to be a lot of gun for the money. I picked up a GI .38 Super a couple of months ago and liked it well enough that yesterday I bought a GI .45 as a gift for my son.
"If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge or jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim." - LtCol Jeff Cooper
I bought mine about 2 years ago when they had GI sights and cost around 360.00,Mine is dead accurate out to 25 yards it's a tack driver
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
glad to hear another positive range report on the Rock Island compact. Hoping to pick one up in the next few months.
Have the same RIA Compact as yours ( and a full size too). Both been very accurate/reliable.
I bought a RIA 38 super not long ago and even with the poor(for my old eyes) sights I have to try to miss! I was surprised at the accuracy of the pistol, and that was right out of the box after cleaning. I have 2 Kimbers in 9mm that honestly don't shoot as well.
I love all of my Rocks. And the customer service in unbelievable.

RIA has brought the basic build quality back to the 1911 world. Out of all the bargain 1911's out there, I'd go with a RIA. They are the only ones wiith a solid build.
"Just blame Sixto"
I reserve the right to make fun, point and laugh etc.
A coworker and I have been researching them...I think they have the more for the money built into their guns than any other 1911 on the market.
Friends don't let friends be MALL NINJAS.
I am just as nice as anyone lets me be and can be just as mean as anyone makes me. - Quoted from Terryger, New member to our forum.

Yet today, the dictator's son, Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos, Jr., is a viable candidate for vice president, hinging his campaign on a call for a "revolution." He is polling second based on latest surveys.
The return of the Marcos family to the national stage is a very interesting development, to say the least. There is no doubt that many observers, especially those that experienced the People Power euphoria that swept the world in the early years of the first Aquino presidency, find it bewildering. For me, I think Bongbong's candidacy calls for some reflection on how things have gone since the Marcos dictatorship was overthrown in 1986.
In December 2009, while reading a blog by Malacanang mandarin Manuel L. Quezon III, I came across a very interesting essay by Timothy Garton Ash on velvet revolutions, a label he applies to all modern, generally bloodless uprisings that democratized autocracies in the late 1980s, including, presumably, the Edsa Revolution of 1986. I find his central thesis instructive.
According to Ash, one fundamental difference between traditional revolutions– those class-oriented mass actions led by the republicans in France, the Bolsheviks in Russia and the Maoists in China– and the modern velvet revolutions is that the latter did not produce a winner-takes-all situation where the losers lost not just their influence and properties but also their lives. Instead, the members of the ruling elite got not the guillotine but a seat at the round table. Unlike in old-style revolutions where "the angry masses on the street are stirred up by extremist revolutionary leaders – Jacobins, Bolsheviks, Mao – to support radicalization, including violence and terror, in the name of utopia; in new-style revolution, the masses on the street are there to bring the powerholders to the negotiating table. The moment of maximum mass mobilization is the moment of turn to negotiation; that is, to compromise."
The reason for this is that proponents of velvet movements generally adhere to two important values: non-violence, in the Gandhian style, and democracy. Hence, they adopt a non-confrontational, sometimes even embracing, attitude towards the old elite and their constituents in the name of stability and of respect for basic human rights. The result is that erstwhile members and supporters of the old regime are absorbed in the new political set-up.
In theory, this is good because it makes the national psyche forward-looking. Unity of the people is valued with the view of building new institutions that will make the nation stable, if not stronger. "Heal the wounds of Edsa," as Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo liked to say. But in reality, according to Ash, this produces a "post-revolution pathology." "As the years go by, there is a sense of a missing revolutionary catharsis; suspicious talk of tawdry deals concluded between old and new elites behind closed doors; and, among many, a feeling of profound historical injustice," he wrote.
But in my view, the fact that apologists of the old regime are allowed by the post-revolutionary dispensation to participate in the national discourse in itself constitutes that "post-revolutionary pathology."
Antonio Gramsci once postulated that the reason worldwide socialist revolutions that orthodox Marxists had once called inevitable did not occur is because capitalism has become a hegemonic culture; the values of the bourgeoisie have been adopted by the masses as common-sense values. Therefore, the challenge for Marxists is to come up with an alternative culture with alternative sets of values that would topple the prevailing cultural hegemony. Robert Cox applied this theoretical framework in international relations, arguing that the battle for hegemony is not between states but between ideologies and political perspectives. In a way, this paradigm can be stretched further to frame an analysis of the context of post-velvet political conditions. The relaxed attitude of the post-revolutionary dispensations towards the old elites enables the latter to present an alternative political narrative that challenges the ideologies, sometimes even the legitimacy, of the revolution and its post-revolutionary set-up.
And so we see two political narratives competing for hegemony in the post-Edsa arena: one that upholds the ideals of the Edsa Revolution and, corollary to that, the legacy of the Aquino family; and another that states that the Marcosian way of governance is good for the Philippines and that the Marcos era was in fact a golden age for the country.
While both local and foreign press have painted Marcos as the epitome of evil and Cory Aquino as the saint of democracy— and this narrative has been adopted officially by the state—the alternative political perspective offered by the loyalists of the Marcos regime continues to present a major ideological challenge. In 1992, Marcos votes would have handed the presidency to a Marcos loyalist had they not been split between Danding Coujangco and Imelda. In 1998, a Marcos loyalist was elected president. Joseph Estrada's machine was, to some extent, manned by many old guards of the New Society and while he failed in his quest to give Marcos a state burial, the fact that the issue was not even taboo already indicated that the narrative of Marcos the villain and Aquino the hero has never been a hegemonic political narrative in the neo-Gramscian way.
Ironically, any attempt to hegemonize the anti-Marcos, Edsa narrative is constrained by the democratic framework which that narrative itself upholds. This framework allows, even encourages, all alternative narratives to compete, legally, in the political arena. Ash hinted that putting up a South Africa-style Truth Commission that would identify and assign blames might be the antidote to this. Perhaps he's right. As things stand, however, the rule of law allows legalistic forces of the Marcos machine to prevent a satisfactory closure to the abuses of the dictatorship while simultaneously re-fashioning the Marcos family as victims of vindictive regimes. Little wonder then that Miriam Defensor-Santiago could get away with her assertion that the Marcos family does not owe the nation any apology.
Those who lament Bongbong's emergence as a national figure, and now a viable candidate for vice president, should realize, therefore, that this has been a long time coming. There is more to it than being just a case of political amnesia or neglect by the educational system in teaching about the abuses of Martial Law. It's the direct result of Edsa's embracing attitude toward the old elite in the name of democracy and the rule of law. By giving Marcos apologists the opportunity to join the national discourse, the post-Edsa regime has given them the license to mount a counter-revolutionary come-back. The effort to rehabilitate Marcos, therefore, started even before the post-Edsa regime could consolidate its institutions. In a way, it's the price we have to pay for having gained democracy with little bloodshed.
There are two things that are fueling this rising tide of pro-Marcos revisionism. First, the post-Edsa regime is not perfect. The initial chaos of the post-Marcos democracy that stagnated the economy, for instance, made many of those belonging to the generation that experienced Marcos look back in nostalgia to the stability that characterized much of the early years of the New Society. Meanwhile, many of those belonging to the generation that has not experienced Marcos are captivated by the Marcos narrative partly because of their cynicism of the post-Marcos conditions. In the process, they all tend to de-emphasize the dark aspects of the Marcos regime. Secondly, there is a natural constituency for any political narrative that emphasizes strongman rule. This constituency propelled the unsuccessful but nonetheless impressive presidential campaigns of Alfredo Lim in 1998, Panfilo Lacson in 2004, and now the mounting calls for the presidential candidacy of Mayor Rodrigo Duterte of Davao. It is clear that Bongbong has succeeded in harnessing these two factors.
Of course, there is no doubt that Bongbong has a solid record as Governor of Ilocos Norte. He also knows how to tap the pool of policy advisers and technical aides that his resources can afford, thereby enabling him to become one of most prolific of the country's senators. A superb public speaker, he is able to package himself as an effective politician, which, really, is all that matters for many middle class voters. Obviously, however, his work is driven, more than anything, by his strong revisionist agenda. I think the total rehabilitation of Ferdinand Marcos and the de-legitimization of Edsa is what Bongbong's revolution is all about. So far, he is succeeding.
How should defenders of Edsa counter Bongbong's revolution? It should not be through condescendingly taking the moral high horse, but rather through a sophisticated messaging that would convincingly persuade voters that, at the end of the day, the Marcos way had been proven to be a failed experiment and that the post-Edsa regime, while not perfect, works.

I called this company to purchase a new Canon digital camera because they had the best price on the internet. I phoned them with a question and started to order the camera but soon discovered that their low price (really only a few dollars less than other companies) did not include any battery or charger for the camera and those would cost me an additional $100. When I said that cameras came with those things in the box the salesman said, "Oh they all stopped doing that YEARS ago!" I had the good sense to leave and sure enough all the other sites prices included the battery and charger in the box along with the camera, a cable and a CD. That's why I titled this "Big Fat Liar" and wanted to warn others.

text: Wow, talking about being silent. The man has nothing positive to say about the organizations and will not say anything about what the Bengals need to do to succeed. It is obvious that Chad is upset about getting most of the blame for leaving, and he said that he would like to join a consistent winner. He also said at the end " TJ I see ya, do your aloha, or whatever...." sounds like he is deffinately upset that 84 made the probowl and not 85. Did anyone else catch this??

I love The Hunger Games and I preordered it and when I got it the box was beaten like crazy, but the contents were fine. I put the movie in today made it about half way through and it froze up and I couldn't do anything. It refused to let me stop, fast forward, rewind, play, it only let me eject. I tried putting it in my Xbox to see how well it worked, it played but there were distortion bars all across the screen. I couldnt see anything. Put it back in the TV and the same thing happened minus the bars. Froze up again. I was overall very disappointed with this order due to the quality of the box and the freezing. I understand that freezing may be a glitch in the DVD but I was vary disappointed.
The timing of the shipping was good but as soon as I got the package, the box was slightly battered up. It wasn't a huge deal but played about 1 hour into the movie, the disc froze. I tested it on various DVD players and DVD-playable devices and it just kept freezing! It was really disappointing.
When I opened the box, it looked like someone tried to bend it! Good thing I don't care much for the cardboard case since I put all my DVDs on a shelf. The DVD case/DVD itself was perfect condition. The mockingjay necklace was AWESOME. But it comes with an unrealistically small necklace. It's cool and has a little metal tag that says "The Hunger Games" but the size of the rope is so small and cheap I gotta buy a chain or do something. Overall, fair quality.
My teen son bought this collector's edition movie for himself. He wanted the extras that came with the boxed set, so this was a special purchase.
I was very disappointed when it arrived. The movie itself is great. The boxed set is awesome. But Walmart shipped this and several other DVDs in just a padded envelope! The other movies were in hard cases and arrived undamaged. However the boxed set did not fare so well. It was scuffed, bent and torn.
I called to return it because I wanted them to be aware that the packaging for shipment had been insufficient. I was assured the replacement would be shipped in a box. It was not. It was shipped again in just a bubble envelope. It was also damaged in shipment, but somewhat less than the first copy had been. My son decided to accept it because he wants the set, but I would advise customers to be aware that Walmart is not protecting this for shipment properly and you will end up with a damaged one.
If I had been giving this as a gift I would be very angry about it. Just because a product comes in a box does NOT mean it doesn't need to be protected for shipment!
I love this movie. It's just as good as the book and I could not wait for the DVD. I saw it twice in theaters. I loved that this came with the exclusive content. I've not watched the extras yet, but I'm sure they are worth it. The pendant is nice and exactly what I expected to receive. I do wish that the cord were longer for it though. Also, very happy that digital copy was included. I've already added it to my computer. I am experiencing difficulty loading it so I can watch it offline, but I'm not that concerned about it. I would highly recommend this for any fan!
I am thrilled with this purchase that I made for my wife who could not be happier with it. The necklace is excellent quality and the additional 2nd commentary disc is also very interesting as it gives you some insight into the making of the movie. Naturally the movie is excellent and she has watched it over & over again. I would recommend this purchase to anyone because it was such a convenient way to get this set and it was promptly delivered in great condition.
Obviously the movie itself is great but, since the dvd Walmart mailed me SKIPS no one was able to enjoy the movie! I should've guessed something would be wrong w/ the quality of the dvd after opening the package and finding a huge dent on the dvd case. So disappointed and annoyed!
I purchased this off walmart.com and the box had creases in it like they were forcing it in too small of a box. I will never buy a DVD off their website again. I will go to the store where it is cheaper and the box is in perfect condition. The movie was excellent!!
This DVD is not working, it gets to scene 14 and stops. You have to go back to the beginning and select scene 15 and then wait as it sits and flashes at you before you can hit the play button. I am returning it. Very disappointed!
My grandaughter loves the Hunger Games movies. I was looking for the pendant or mockingjay pin. It was a plus to find the movie and pendant together. . A great xmas present
This is a wonderful film adaptation of the novel. Combined with the mockingjay pin, this makes for a great gift for any Hunger Games fan out there. I can't recommend this highly enough.
Scratched disc. Couldn't watch the movie on any of the 3 DVD players or the PC because it was scratched so badly.
I am a huge fan of the books and the film. Like all film adaptations there are things changed or taken out but what I like about films like this is that you don't lose or change the story to much unnecessarily like I know some film adaptions *cough*The Last Airbender*cough* have. It is a good film on its own.
Awesome movie, awesome quality, and awesome bonus content. I was genuinely pleased with this purchase.
The only problem was that I got it with free shipping, so it took forever to arrive. And when it finally showed up on my doorstep, the box the movie was in was pretty torn and beat up.
Luckily, the product wasn't harmed, but I was very displeased with how Walmart handled the shipping. (I realize you can expect delays with free shipping, and pay to make sure your product is handled with care, but when they lure you into buying it with a big FREE SHIPPING sign in the description...you'd expect a little better quality of work.)
So, I bought this DVD because it was cheap and I hadn't seen Hunger Games, so I thought "what the h3ll?" It was a pretty good movie. The pendant that comes with it is clearly very cheaply made, but that's no surprise. I like the instawatch capability, haven't yet seen the bonus material so can't comment on that. But, it's a fun movie at a good price.
My family and I LOVE the movie, but the very first time we placed the DVD in the player, it would freeze at section 15. If let there to see what happens, it would eventually skip a large section of the movie. I tried it on several of our DVD players and the same thing would happen to it at the same spot (and not a single other movie we own.) It may just be a bad batch or something. Who knows?
Our daughter and I went to see this when it opened in the theater. We couldn't wait for it to come out so we could buy it!
The Hunger Games movie was amazing! I saw it in theaters and I just had to buy the DVD too! It came with shooting footage that you can upload to your iPod or computer and a digital copy that you can do the same thing with. I love the mockingjay pendant also. I highly recommend you read the books. They are 100 times better than the movie!
The movie was great HOWEVER upon opening the package on end of the box was smashed. Opened the cd case and one of the holders were broken. The product itsself is good however the shipping and handling of it rates a O...very upset with the way it came to us. My granddaughter wanted this for herself and sister.
The movies is absolutely fantastic. I love the Mocking Jay necklace that came with it. Anyone that has seen these movies will enjoy seeing them over and over again.

Lawyers for an engineer, who has been banned access to nuclear sites in France, have called the decision 'pure Islamophobia.' But authorities claimed it was for security reasons.
The 29 year-old man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was employed by a firm subcontracted by the energy company EDF. He worked as a project manager and as part of the role he was allowed access nuclear installations from 2012 to 2013. However, in March 2014 he was refused permission to work at Nogent-sur-Seine nuclear power station in Eastern France. Authorities said he had failed a vetting process and was not allowed entry.
Officials alleged he had links with a terror group and that he was in contact with an imam involved in recruiting people to fight in Iraq. These claims were rejected by the suspect, and his lawyer Sefen Guez said, "There is no proof of these supposed links." Later in June the ban was overturned by an appeals court. Yet back to work a month later and the man was refused access again.
The court in the North-eastern town of Chalons-en-Champagne had revealed that the management could prevent those "undergoing a process of political and religious radicalisation" from accessing sensitive sites.
Sefen Guez said: "This country respects the rule of law and my client, a qualified man with no criminal record who practises his religion in a normal way, like many other French Muslims, would quite naturally like to know the reasons for this ban."
He added that "considering the current atmosphere in France, his religious leanings cannot be ruled out" as a reason behind the ban. But officials from the police chief's office said: "It goes without saying that the ban was not based on criteria such as religion or race. Our judgement is based on security issues."
The court in the North-eastern town of Chalons-en-Champagne upheld the ban saying the management could prevent those "undergoing a process of political and religious radicalisation" from accessing sensitive sites.
The man now awaits the outcome as the second appeal case is pending a decision at the end of the month.

Item description for "I Will Come Again" by W. Larry Pharr...Overview
How many Christians truly understand the rapture and the Second Advent of Christ? How many are able to exegetically prove the rapture to be pretribulational, mid-tribulational or post-tribulational? Can the born-again believer biblically show the last trumpet sounding, or can one show where the shout of the Lord occurs? What is the significance of the "First Resurrection" or the role of the hundred and forty-four thousand? What is meant by the "last day" and "that day and hour"? What is the "Day of the Lord" and does the Church go into the "Great Tribulation" or escape it by rapture? What is meant by "One is taken and the other left?" What significance does Matthew 24 and 25 have for the rapture and the Second Advent of Christ?
All these questions are clearly answered in this book, as speculation is discarded for only scriptural evidence and proof of the rapture and Second Advent of Jesus Christ. This book will not disappoint the reader, for it is not just another "cloned" essay on the coming of the Lord but undeniably proves all assertions made by the author as scripture alone is the book's defense. The book promises to provoke, stimulate, challenge and intrigue the diligent student of the Word as it destroys uncorroborated myths concerning the rapture and Second Advent of Christ. This book is unlike any the reader has ever encountered on the rapture and Second Advent of the Lord. In addition, the book covers topics and issues that seldom, if ever, are discussed in book form, as the author does not duck any difficult issue. The reader is guaranteed to be thrilled with this fresh outlook for the coming of the Lord.

Olive and Rosemary Flat Bread
Wheat Free Recipe
Olive and Rosemary Flat Bread is a yeast bread using brown rice flour plus egg whites, olive oil, black olives, garlic, corn flour and cornstarch. Rosemary adds a nice, flavorful finish.
1-1/2 cup brown rice flour (see note)
1-1/2 teaspoon granular yeast 2 teaspoons sugar
1-1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees)
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 tablespoon olive oil
12 oil cured black olives, pitted, chopped
4 teaspoons dried rosemary, or to taste
1 egg yolk mixed with 1/2 teaspoon water
1 large garlic clove, peeled, cut in 3 pieces
1/2 cup corn flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons xanthan gum powder
1 to 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
Recipe Directions
Stir together 1/2 cup of the rice flour, the yeast, sugar and 1/2 cup of the warm water in a 2-cup glass measure. Let rest in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 10 minutes.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and draw two 8 inch circles on it (use a cake pan as a guide).
Beat egg whites lightly, add olive oil, chopped olives and 2 teaspoons of the rosemary; set aside.
Combine garlic and egg yolk; set aside. (Garlic will perfume the glaze but won't burn in the oven, as chopped garlic would.) Combine remaining 1 cup rice flour, the corn flour, corn- starch, xanthan gum powder and salt in bowl.
Add remaining 3/4 cup warm water to egg white-olive mixture a stir into flour. Stir in yeast mixture and beat until smooth.
Using a rubber spatula, spread soft dough into 8-inch circles marked on the parchment paper heaping it up slightly in the middle. Cover loaves with lightly greased plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Discard garlic and brush egg glaze over loaves. Sprinkle tops with remaining 2 teaspoons rosemary. Using a razor blade, slash tops of loaves into a large diamond grid pattern. (Use an up-and-down cutting motion rather than dragging the blade through the soft dough.)
Bake for 20 minutes, until well browned.
Recipe Note
Brown rice flour and corn flour may be found in some health food stores.
