I used to live in Holiday in Pasco County on the west coast. It was nice when I bought there but very quickly became WAY too populated for my taste (I'm a country girl). Been living very happily in a log cabin in the Adirondack Park in upstate NY on 5 acres of woodland until I left my husband last year.
Currently in Lynchburg VA and want to move back to Florida to be somewhat closer to my only living nephew (he's in Clearwater/Dunedin).
I was hoping to find a nice area in the northern end of Florida on the east coast where I could live and MAYBE work in Georgia and still get home at least every other night but every night is preferable. WHERE would be good?
OR, where would be good just outside some of the larger cities in the north where I could live in a "rural-ish" area and travel in to get my truck or whatever?
OR, would any jobs for truckers be available in the keys? I've never been to any area's other than Pinellas and Pasco counties. Need some ideas if you can help me.
Am considering the east coast hoping that it's a bit less humid than the west coast. More breezy is good too.
My favorite things to do are stay home, gardening (when it's not TOO hot), I would really love free concerts in parks, food or other street festivals, and things such as this. Not big on restaurants, arts, movies, shopping, etc. Pretty prehistoric in that sense I guess. Don't want to be around a LOT of people ALL the time. Small doses is fine.
Thanks. (PS, I'm coming in on 60 years of age if that helps, don't want to be around a gazillion kids playing basketball in the street outside my bedroom 24/7)

Florida trucking means produce and citrus up 95. Most of the produce is way south of where you want to be; citrus is more widely distributed. As you know, this is time sensitive trucking, and I would guess that there are a fair number of empty backhauls from Up North.

Are contractually obliged to say…after the jump…on every single post?
It's like my calling card :) Does it bother you?
It's a weird situation, really... he's fighting for playing time against three guys who are all basically comparable to one another in terms of the previous success they've had in this league... which is, honestly, not a whole heck of a lot. While Carney and Ivey are both a bit younger than Green, none of them has proven that he's anything more than a bench player... and not even a first-off-the-bench player, when you get right down to it. If Holiday continues to work hard and to get a feel for the pace of the NBA and how things generally work on the court, it's hard to imagine him not getting a fair share opf playing time sometime in the latter half of the season. If he doesn't, it'll be pretty clear that he hasn't made the progress we all hope he'll make.
The tough pill for me to swallow, and I think I touched on this in the post, is being convinced that he was given ample opportunities to prove himself. If he's over-matched badly, I want to see it before I accept it, but that's probably a personal thing for me.
"The tough pill for me to swallow... is being convinced that he was given ample opportunities to prove himself"
I'm with you 100% on this, Brian. I guess I'm hoping, at the very least, that things move along in a manner similar to the way they did with Thad... with the exception that we don't have to count on someone leaving the team (as Korver did) to make room for Jrue's playing time. I guess what I'm saying is that I'll accept a slow integration, so to speak, over no integration at all. If he plays 6-8 minutes per game in the first half of the season and then 12-15 minutes in the second half... well, I'll be just fine with that.
Yup, me too. I'll be fine with those minutes.
While recognizing that we live in a world where even G. Popovich and P. Jackson have tons of tough detractors, I'm just wondering if we can give EJ, like, five minutes of credit before we start proclaiming ourselves expert enough to know when and how much playing time Jrue should be getting in this preseason.
Eddie will have plenty of opportunity during the season to prove himself, we'll have a fair ledger of goods vs bads and when it tips clearly into dumbasscoachhowdhegethiredanyway territory, we can call for his stoopit head.
It's a trust thing. Give him a little space to do something with it.
Here's the quote of the day, from Starbury:
"I'm just talking as a fan and New Yorker who grew up loving the Knicks: why would I give you my money to watch them?" Marbury said.
And then the blurb ends with this:
Marbury said he plans to attend the Knicks' home opener October 31 vs. the 76ers with his kids.
Curious - was there this much infatuation and obsession over Thad Young after he was picked at 12 and Marreese Speights after he was picked at 16 the last two years?
"... it pains me to have to accept the coach's evaluation that he isn't ready without seeing it for myself."
If having no assists against six turnovers isn't enough to see for yourself (as has been stated here the past few days about the concern for turnovers) then what is? And take into account this was against mostly the other team's bench players when he acculumated these numbers, so we can only imagine what they would look like if it were against the other team's top five.
Bang the gong, dead on EH.
The difference with Jrue is that he was predicted to go higher in mock drafts and dropped to us, hence the increased expectations.
Add in the fact that he's only 19 and has great length and reportedly an a great attitude towards playing defense, he's got a number of Sixers fans excited (myself included). I just want to see the kid play. I'd be glad if he gets enough minutes so we can assess where this kid is at. It is true though we may have to wait a year or two for him to start living up to his potential.
But why keep expectations so high after some mock drafts? Drafts done by people who're just guessin their asses off, people whose prognostication "skills" are regularly shamed year after year.
I'd get excited over a guy like Dejuan Blair falling to us cuz at least he proved himself a historic beast at the level just below. Jrue went at his actual value: a guy who's not likely to be ready to contribute meaningful minutes in his first year (but has enough upside to keep grooming).
Really it's so much ado.
You are absolutely correct. 40 minutes of preseason action says it all. He's obviously going to have a 0 to infinity assist to turnover ratio and shoot 100% from three.
I do like how you quote me and then completely ignore the key part of the quote "without seeing it for myself." I've seen Jrue play about 10 minutes so far this preseason, I think it was in the second game against Toronto, but I'm not sure. He hit a couple threes in that stretch and turned the ball over at least once. From what I've seen, with my own two eyes, he didn't look overmatched. I was hoping I'd be able to see him play against the knicks, or maybe tomorrow night against the Suns when the game is on NBA TV. As of this moment, I haven't seen enough to make an assessment either way. And the numbers alone don't really tell me anything because it's such a small sample size.
Kudos to you for pointing out that he has played against the subs on other teams without providing the counter argument that he's played with the Sixers second and third-teamers. His shooting and scoring numbers are more than fine, and perhaps he'd have a couple more assists, and a few less turnovers if he was playing with starters, or actual NBA players, instead of the Sean Singletary's of the world.
As for Thad, no one expected anything from him in his rookie season, and as I said in the post above, his performance has probably raised the expectations on Jrue, fairly or not. Do you read these posts before you drone on with the same argument in the comments?
If the guy played great in preseason, there'd be a leg to stand on for all the wee-want-jrue-not-a-willie! hollerin. As he hasn't in fact played so great, esp in the departments where he's needed most (ie A/TO, because, no foolin, they have scorers aplenty), maybe, just maybe the coach gets some leeway, that maybe he's seen more of the same (or worse) in the closed practices to make the call.
I thought it was a pretty even-handed post. But automatic expectations (vs. hopes) for Jrue because two years ago Thad worked out really well doesn't seem entirely reasonable. You can kill development by not giving a player enough opportunities but you can also do it by giving him some before he's really ready. We don't need to have a 19yr old play a lot of minutes at point guard his first year in the NBA when he played only one season in college and that one season at off-guard (and not so impressively at that). Getting on Eddie's back about it is also getting on Jrue's.
Your second paragraph here is why I didn't crucify, or even criticize Jordan at all in this post. All I said is that I'd like to see him play for myself. Christ, I'd also like to see the kid practice as well, but I can't.
"Some contender wants a little offense off the bench and/or there's a problem player out there (like Goran Giricek was) and Ed Stefanski sends Wilie Green packing, opening up a role for Jrue."
Or, they could call up an NBDL player and get the same or better production. Don't keep your fingers crossed.
Well, if they're trying to unload a problem player, can't do that with an NBADL guy.
And I'm not holding my breath.
If the team was otherwise set I bet Jrue would be getting lots of minutes.
The problem is that they have a new coach, new offense, new PG... and they are needing to use the pre-season to install everything from scratch. Unfortunately I think Jrue is getting lost in this, and I'd prefer if EJ found a way to get him some regular pre-season minutes.
Now, in the regular season, you can't guarantee him set minutes until the rest of the team is on the same page. getting the regulars ready and adjusted has to be the priority or they will lose a ton of games...
But right now we are talking pre-season, which is glorified practice. And if Jrue doesn't get some time now he will never get a chance. That's sort of what the pre-season is for, but for this team its gotten lost because in the new schemes everyone is sort of like a rookie.
I think you hit the nail on the head! Coach is concerned about the team learning the new stuff and getting comfortable w/ his new team.
I do not believe this is in any way a reflection on Jrue as much as concentrating on what is must right now. Getting the team ready for the season...
And a very small edit: according to nba.com Jrue has a total of four rebounds (not five) in that span and also four fouls.
In Ivey's 50 preseason minutes, he has only 11pts (on truly wretched shooting) but one less turnover than Jrue piled up in his 40 minutes. Toss in the 6 assists he was credited and I think you can make a fair guess as to Jordan's priorities for point guards in his system.
Let's give this boy Jrue some time.
A little tidbit in B. Cooney!s Daily News article today made me feel better about Jrue; "he lead his highschool team to 3 state titles". I did not know this and it adds to my feelings that he was a good pick. Would Thad or Marreese have gotten much preseason run in this situation, I doubt it. TK76 hit the nail on the head about his growth not being a priority with a new coach, new offense, and more importantly a new p.g. being used this year already. What bothers me most is all the comparisons to Teague [disappeared for games at a time in college], Lawson [injury prone with a 30 game schedule] and Maynor [will he ever start in the N.B.A.] because they are playing better in a few preseason games, with more oppurtunity.Who knows who will be the best of these 4, I sure don!t yet but the kid deserves time to show what he can do.
Rightly or wrongly Jrue Holliday isn't a victim of higher expectations so much that he slipped in the draft but BECAUSE of the performances of the past two mid first round picks by the sixers (Speights, Young). Young had little to no expectation in his first year, but he was astonishing, so there was a bit more expectation from Speights, and depending on how you look at it, he exceeded (or not) any expectations people had for him in his rookie season (though his second training camp disheartening so far), so through no fault of his own (or Coach Jordans) the expectations of performance are so much higher for Jrue Holliday because of how Young and Speights performed their rookie years, it's a natural evolution of expectation (this is in response to the gentleman who asked earlier if the expectations for Young and Speights were this high)
Additionally, Holliday was drafted at a position where many sixers fans see a 'great need'. There are many who think Holliday was drafted to a position (point guard) where the sixers have no other. Young was drafted and seemed to play the same position as Iguodala, Speights wasn't going to play much because the sixers had just signed Elton Brand. There was no need for them to perform as well as they did their rookie seasons (at least when they were drafted). There is more of a need for Jrue Holliday (from many fans) to perform right away, and not being able to see if he can is also disheartening.
Then there's the expectation factor, not of Holliday, but of this team. Two seasons around 500 and first round losses, the expectations are higher with this team. The new GM has 'his coach'. Eddie Jordan is the guy Mr Stefanski wanted. He brings the system. Brand is healthy, everyone is back, and everyone thinks that this team is ready to bust out, and you want to know that everyone can help do that. And then you look at the guards on the roster not named Iguodala. Maybe you worry a little bit, maybe you feel Andre Miller would be better in this system then a Louis Williams and you look at Jrue Holliday; the highly recruited and touted high school senior who suffered through a miserable year at UCLA playing out of position because the point guard who was supposed to go pro didn't. He had limited playing time in college, he played most of that out of position, so there is that hype of what he achieved in high school that while could be tempered by a poor college season many can see what he did in high school and feel that if given the chance he'll do that in the pros and that Holliday just went from one stifling atmopshere at UCLA to another. Maybe Eddie Jordan just doesn't like to play rookies.
I personally don't understand why Holliday hasn't played more in the preseason, the final scores don't matter to me, it's seeing where this team is, and ashamedly, I don't think they are as far as they should be by now, and Jordan abandoning his beloved 'system' (for whatever reason) to try and get a win in the preseason is troubling to me in my core. It's the kind of coaching move that makes me personally wonder about the mans fitness and understanding to lead this franchise to where it properly belongs versus just hoping to do well enough to keep his job.
Yes, I'm disappointed but the minutes Jrue Holliday has (not) gotten in pre-season, but I don't believe it's in the upper echelon of issues I have with the presaseon so far. The continued minutes for Willie Green are a bother, I still worry about Lou Williams, Samuel Dalembert, paper clippings aside, is still lost in any kind of offensive scheme and breaks any offensive system he's in. Andre Iguodala has turned the ball over too much, and while he picked it up recently those zero rebound games of Thaddeus Young are troubling. Mareese Speights seems to have improved nothing in the off season and if he's to be believed, the coaching staff seems ok with that as long as he looks for his shot when he gets the ball (and he seems to have no problem with that). The defensive rebounding still isn't consistently acceptable against bad teams.
I would love to see Jrue HOlliday get bigger minutes in the pre-season just to see what he can do - but this team has some serious issues that are concerning me and if I were Eddie Jordan, I'd focus on those.
Eugene, well said; I also was upset when our coach went away from the new offense in a preseason game till I read the following quote the next day; "they [Knicks] were into our wings, into our guards, and we haven!t put in our counters yet. When Jefferies and Hughes were in the game, they knew our calls, and if your good enough to go by reads, we can attack that." I think this tells me something good about our new coach.Rather than have his players get frustrated and maybe doubt his system he bent and admited so, allowing for people like us to question his methods but in hindsight I think he showed me a willingness to adjust, a good thing.
Exactly deep, the questioning his methods. With time, he's gonna be a good one.
Nearly the best analysis of the season-before-the-season so far, with a few irregularities of the opinionated sort, but such an overreaction when taking into account the limited sample size. It will come. In due time, it will come.
And concerning the first paragraph - evolution of expectation can often times lead to disparagement, in the reduce of rank sense. Reality has to set in at some point.
And concerning the second paragraph, I'm not so sure that there's more of a need for the rook to perform right away for the team's sake, but yes, maybe for the fans.
That trust has to be extended to Lou also - for the time being.
Damn dude that's long enough to be an article
anyone have a link for tonights games?
FWIW, Jrue's in (wise against this freewheeling Suns team of old, the one that shrugs at defense)... three minutes, 3 assists (2 dishes to Speights for dunks) and NO turnovers.
viewing pleasure desired...
where are you guys watching this? I can't find the link.
At some point, particularly when they are new, you have to create some trust in individuals. It's as if there is thought, lingering at that, that DiLeo or Mo Cheeks are still coaching.
Initially, no pun intended, you have to give Eddie a chance, or even moreso, respect. He will work his craft and weave his way, I'm sure. For a guy who loves a crisp and disectful, executed offensive set like yourself, this guy may be right up a lot of our alleys. Now granted, this is all predicated on shooters. True ones.....if not....improved ones.
You have to believe, what he pulled out of the bag at the Garden the other night, was pure stroke of genius. We, and they, already know the team can win half their games on just isolations and 1-4 isos - the traditional, basic sets where they have run for years. Now, if they can translate and implement these more system-oriented sets, other teams better watch out.
So therefore, his (or their) handling of the rook shouldn't be so highly placed in question. And sometimes, neither should the keen eye and opinion of others. There's so much more going on here.
This isn't a pissing contest or an internet-prove-you-wrong, it's just another somewhat depressed fan's depth of fandom on display. You want to see the rook for yourself, and rightfully so, but his nuturement appears to be proper at this time. It will pay dividends years down the road. I mean, is Jrue going to get better? - Sure. Is Jrue going to get worse? - Very unlikely.
As stated here before, this here guy viewed approximately 20 of his games in college. We all want the same things, it's just viewed differently by others. And there's surely no harm in that.
the rookie treatment - but in the other sense - d-board, o-board, and dish for the slam. nice
Man, Speights loves playing against the Suns. Huge 4th quarter comeback happening right now, wish I could watch it.
Speights seems to be going crazy according to the play by play. I can't even find an audio link.
Same here. He's got 30 and 10 right now.
This lineup is crazy:
Who's playing the three?
my guess is willie with jrue at the one and lou at the two.
Sixers finally get over the hump, take a 106-104 lead on an alley oop from Lou to Speights and then...
1:29 PHI - Bad pass by W. Green
1:37 PHI - W. Green defensive rebound
And then...
1:26 PHI - Shooting foul on W. Green
1:26 PHO - C. Powell drives to the hoop for a layup. Assist: L. Amundson
Willie fouls Powell for the and-one. Ugh.
And Willie makes up for it on the other end!
1:16 PHI - W. Green hits a free throw
1:16 PHO - Shooting foul on C. Powell
1:16 PHI - W. Green makes an 8-foot jumper in the lane
Sixers by 1, with the ball, 1 minute to go after this:
1:00 PHO - D. Dickau hits the second free throw
1:00 PHO - D. Dickau misses the first free throw
1:00 PHI - Personal foul on J. Holiday
Looks like it came apart in the end, with Speights failing to work theclock after a rebound, then Lou fouling a 3 point shooter.
Yep. Jordan stuck w/ that lineup which you can't fault him for.
wonder if it was a pump fake or something being so far out.
And Jrue gives his 6th foul with 18 seconds left, they're going to lose.
The rook finishes with 14 points on 5/9 shooting with 7 boards, 6 assists, 2 turnovers and a steal in just over 30 minutes of work.
Looks like Lou got his foul shooting backwards. Should have made the first and missed the second.
Man, check out Lou + Speights
21/39 from the floor, 16/22 from the line, 59 points.
30 min tonight and neither you, nor I, could 'see' it. can't wait for sunday. but i'm sure he will divide the minutes differently with the travel so early before the season.
are you ready for some.............no Hank, not that one..........are you ready for some basketball, sunday night party!
Dickau missed both! Go for the win here? Down 2 with 3.9 seconds left.
Well, they fell short, but it was a nice comeback. In a real game EJ would probably have put in Kapono (or Carney if healthy.) for the last shot.
or Dala.
Awesome. Yeah, yeah, it's still preseason and it's the Suns, but this is the breakout game everyone was hoping to see from Jrue. We finally have a little flash of what's possible from EJ's secret weapon. I like pleasant surprises over dashed expectations. We should continue to nurture him gently, putting him out in situations where he has a strong shot to do well.
SPEIGHTS! Real season not far off now, fellas.
Just a little coddling going on, just a lil coddling. Managing the psyche of the young kid.
patience, patience
It is good to see Nash, who lit up A.Miller a couple nights ago, didn!t go off on L.Will., who played 35 minutes.For those without N.B.A. t.v.,the free preseason preview is on so you can watch the Sixers game Sunday at 7, if the Phillies aren!t your cup of tea.
With the exception of Willie G, it looks like he wanted to let the young guns find their way in a live game setting with the lineups at the end last night. I'm sure he was also divvying up the minutes with the long flight and the back-to-backs.
But when taking into account Jordan's openness to the media concerning detailed situations and issues with the team, I really like what he was doing here. He limited a couple of the hosses and passed the buck into the lap of the youngins, but more importantly, he did it on the road away from the media spotlight. Pretty much every move he has made to this point has me extremely impressed.
I am continually amazed at how much insight he allows with some of his admittances and quotes to the media. When he states something it is always brief in form but comprehensive in scope.
From the admittal of deviating from the offense to more familiar sets the other night in New York, to the publicly-said-but-didn't-need-to-publicly-be-said 'attitude and negative energy' issues, to the mention of Brand needing to do more 'for his teammates', and last but not least, the snippet of why Jrue rode the pine because of the opponent's feistiness.
In shifting to overreaction mode, so far, this guy has shown nothing short of brilliance. I truly like what I have seen. And unexpectedly, I fully embrace what I have heard. We haven't had that in a while 'round these parts.
I am in total agreement with that. Ed Stefanski got a negative rap from the jump after hiring Jordan. Don't underestimate either Ed.They are very sharp basketball minds. Let this organization keep flying under the radar and hey don't be surprised if come April we are looking at a 50 win or close to 50 win team.
So true.
Beware of the collective Eddies' Heady's...
Is Sunday here yet??
I followed the 2nd half of the game over at libertyballers. Even just watching the Box, it was fun to see the comeback and Jrue have a breakout game. The game counted for nothing, but still hurt to see them climb all the way back from 18 down to take the lead... then see Dickua get 7FT's in 30 sec to cost them the comeback.
At least we will actually get to "see" them play on Sunday. Hope Jrue gets another extended run.

The Flame Alphabet
Joshua Cohen writes:
Ben Marcus's new novel, The Flame Alphabet, is a commentary on the Elisha text, but a commentary that fulfils both obligations of flame: the text's illumination is also its destruction. A novel concerned with children and language and the terrors wrought when one comes into possession of the other, it holds speech to be dangerous not just to Samaritan delinquents and itinerant seers but also to religion and the life of the mind. Marcus does violence to prayer – it doesn't help, it harms – and to philosophy, which becomes a playground of forgery and misattribution: he misquotes Thoreau as having called the alphabet 'the saddest song' (shades of Psalm 137); he has Schopenhauer impossibly plagiarise Wittgenstein ('if it can be said, then I am not interested'); while the Nietzsche citation is not only false but a reversal of NietzscheanSprache: 'if I could take something from the world … it would be the language that sits rotting inside my mouth.'

For Marvel Comics fans, today is both a beginning and an ending. It marks the end of Secret Invasion, a massive line-wide event that has dominated most of Marvel's books all summer and fall. It also marks the official beginning of a new storyline called Dark Reign.
We won't spoil exactly what Dark Reign entails – we'd rather you read Secret Invasion #8 for yourselves – but the name alone makes it obvious that our favorite Marvel heroes are in for more bad times.
One of Marvel's Dark Reign-related teaser images has featured a mysterious armored figure called Iron Patriot. Iron Patriot looks very much like Iron Man, but he wears the colors of Captain America. Who is this character? What purpose do they serve?

Thanks, Mike I do not read Chicago Parent on a regular basis. If I see one I'll pick it up. If not, I don't miss it. The June 2005 issue just happened to be in my neighborhood park district lobby. I haven't set foot in this facility for almost a year. Coincidence? I don't believe in them. After reading Mike Phillips' essay, "Saying goodbye to Jack," I am compelled to write you. Your essay hit home.
Thank you for sharing your heart. I am a single father. My son is 22 months old. His name is Connor. His mother moved out of state with him approximately eight months ago. I have started court proceedings to attempt to gain custody. People tell me my chances are slim to none. But I know I must try.
I didn't know how to put my feelings into words until I read your essay. I cried. For months I wondered if my son would remember me after not seeing me for two weeks. If he knows the sound of my voice on the phone when I call. If he knows that I love him. And what it's doing to him that I'm not around to "do the day-to-day."
I seem to have always had an extremely close bond with my son from the day he was born. It's the insecurity, the self-doubt that creeps in when I'm not with him. Perhaps it's something I'll have to live with for many years to come.
This Father's Day was special for me because of your essay. Again, thank you. It was what I needed at just the right time. And for whatever it's worth, your son knows you love him.
Happy Father's Day, Mike. GLENN IWAOKA Elk Grove Village Benefits of massage for colic As an infant massage instructor and parent, I read Judith Weinstein's article about colic ("The fourth trimester: colic," June 2005) hoping she would mention how helpful massage therapy is for relieving colic. Alas, she did not.
I massaged my own adopted son every day from age 3 days until 7 months. Infant massage has too many benefits to list, but it speeds up a child's neurological development and relieves colic. There is a "colic relief routine" that works wonders.
There are also a number of different ways to hold a baby to help him pass gas. I encourage every parent to learn how to massage their child. There are classes throughout Chicagoland. LESLIE KAHN Chicago Bad sex advice I'm writing to you with mixed emotions. I want to congratulate you on your article about colic (June 2005). I found it so helpful I sent it to my sister-in-law in Minnesota, who is due in July.
But I was deeply disturbed by the guidance in the article "Is there sex after children" by Liz DeCarlo (April 2005). Sex therapist Laura Berman's statement that "Women will find that if they make themselves sexually available, men will feel connected and women will enjoy the after-effects. ... Sex is a way to show men they're still important" is particularly offensive.
The words have lingered in my head as the smell of cooked cabbage lingers in an unventilated kitchen. All I can think is that if I followed this advice, the sexual component of my marriage would be destroyed, followed shortly by my marriage. This is the worst sexual advice I have ever seen.
The strange thing is, I agreed with the article up until Berman's quote. Until then, the article did a good job suggesting men and women are equally responsible for their sexual relationship. That quote took all the equality back and placed it in the woman's lap, which is where it doesn't belong.
If there is a problem in the sexual relationship, trying to make sex happen won't fix it. The foundations of sex are in the the emotional intimacy. A couple needs to first "fix" the problems in their emotional chemistry. Sex is a result of the emotional bond, not a generator of it.
In short, for an enjoyable and healthy sex life within a marriage with children, Berman's advice should be completely disregarded. JENNIFER WESTERN Johnsburg Big family story hit home I was pleased with your article "Not necessarily cheaper (or easier) by the half-dozen: How today's large families make it work" (July 2005). I am getting married in August and my future husband and I want a large family—at least five children.
When I tell that to people, they are shocked. We are both college educated and make enough money to provide a good home. This article was refreshing because you too often hear about how impossible it is to provide for so many children.
I hope my future children will benefit from being a part of a large group and will be better people because of it.
Thank you for addressing this important but often not talked about topic. MICHELLE MANTIA Chicago Don't declaw the cat As a parent and the director of Tree House Animal Foundation, which rescues injured and abused stray cats, I was alarmed to read a letter about an incident in which a cat attacked a woman's son (June 2005). This incident would cause any parent to take precautions to prevent it from happening again.
However, declawing is cruel and harmful. At Tree House, we found that declawed cats are more likely to bite, perhaps because they feel their natural defense system has been taken away, or in reaction to the pain that often lingers after declawing.
Education in proper animal care and handling, as well as supervision of kids, are keys to avoiding harmful situations.

Planning an Exotic Fishing Vacation to the Tropical Atlantic to Deep Sea Fishing off Miami or the Islands? Wouldn't it be great to have an idea of what Marine Life you may encounter? If you're the kind of Angler that wants to know "The Lay of the Sea" when you go somewhere new then this Game Fish I.D. Card is what you are looking for. This Full-Color Fish Identification Card allows you to know what Local-Wildlife you are looking at when you see it. Card is Waterproof and Easily-Stows in your Tackle Box. This 6" X 9" (15 x 23 cm) Plastic Slate depicts 60-Plus Fish in Color Drawings, and is Hole-Punched to Secure a Lanyard for Safe Use. Easy to maintain just Rinse the Fish Card with Fresh Water after a Day at Sea. Fish ID Cards make a Great Gift Idea.
Reviewed by 1 customers
This thing is terrible. It is true that it is waterproof and it does have 2 sides which is a plus but the pictures are really badly drawn and there is not enough detail to distinguish a sheepshead from a black drum. These fish look like cartoons. They also have not text describing lengths or habitat. Basically, good for teaching my 2-year old, "S is for shark!" I chucked these as soon as I got em and raided my tacklebox for my laminated fish id charts. Maybe I can figure out how to completely waterproof em.

Locking ListView's Header and Footer with CSS
Due to some usability issues and real estate gains on the user inteface, I was thinking to find a way to lock the header (and footer as well if applicable) of a ListView control. After some googling, I found a great resource by Brett Merkey which can be easily implemented to the ListView.
I am not a CSS guru but I was brave enough to play around with the original CSS that I got from that resource, and organized my ListView's LayoutTemplate as:
Newly modified CSS code is:
After debugging the application file with this new stylesheet, I have:
I have tested my sample code with Firefox, IE6 and IE7; and everything was seeming to work fine. You can download it via here.
10 Responses
I wasn't get same listview. Header and footer locking but scroll is different.
Hi Mustafa,
Can you explain what it does in details?
expression(parentNode.parentNode.offsetHeight >= offsetParent.offsetHeight ? 0 – parentNode.parentNode.offsetHeight + offsetParent.offsetHeight + offsetParent.scrollTop : 0);
Best, William
How can I get the scroll offsets for the table?
Expressions are only supported by IE and not by any others. It will not work with FF.
Works great but it doesn't work well when I add a master page.
Thanks for sharing this scrollable ListView.
I am trying to use it in my project, but there appears to be a bug in FireFox. When there are less than 6 items in the list, the row height expands to table height. Do you have a fix for this?
– David
Amazing! So useful.

I have had problems with back and neck pain for some time and it has really been giving me trouble for the last couple of weeks. I still have some Acetomin # 3 from before, but need to make sure it is still ok to take.READ MORE
I have a prescription for acetamin, but it is 3 years old, is it still good?
Its funny how these questions run in bunches as we just got a similar one.
According to the Harvard Medical School most prescriptions are still potent long past their expiration date - which is typically 2 to 3 years. It may be somewhat less potent or it could just as potent as it ever was. The expiration date does not indicate that a drug is no longer good - it simply indicates a date at which a drug manufacturer guarantees that it is good. A large Air Force study in conjunction with the FDA concluded that most drugs are good long past their expiration dates and they use them past their expiration dates.
According to Johns Hopkins, "If your medications have been stored under good conditions, (ie. not in hot or humid conditions) they should retain all or much of their potency for at least one to two years following their expiration date, even after the container is opened. But you should discard any pills that have become discolored, turned powdery, or smell strong; any liquids that appear cloudy or filmy; or any tubes of cream that are hardened or cracked. To help maintain potency, store your medications in a closet or cabinet located in a cool, dry room. Also, don't mix medications in one container: chemicals from different medications can interact to interfere with potency or cause harmful side effects. If two or more medications have been mingled for any period of time, discard them. A few medications, like insulin and some liquid antibiotics, do degrade quickly and should be used by the expiration date. Also, consider replacing any outdated medications that you're taking for a serious health problem, since its potency is more critical than that of an over-the-counter drug you take for a headache or hay fever. If in doubt, consult a pharmacist."
If you really want to make your pills (but not your liquid meds) last throw them in the freezer - they'll apparently last almost forever there. For more on freezing your drugs read: http://www.healthcentral.com/chronic-pain/c/5949/25644/medications
The reason for exacerbation of pain is more concerning than the expiration of the meds. If you have a pain that has not needed Tylenol(acetaminophen)#3 for 3 years and now has become uncomfortable enough to need narcotic pain medications, The reason might need to be investigated by a MD. If you are asking about wether the prescription(written or refills are still good, They are not. If you are talking about an actual bottle of pills, They should have an expiration date on them.READ MORE
No, in most states, any prescription is only good for one year. A prescription containing a narcotic is good for six months.READ MORE
Pl. look at the expiry date and if that is not available, better buy a new bottle or strip. If I am not mistaken, Acetamin (acetaminophen or paracetamol) is an OTC drug and does not require a prescription, but local laws are different in different parts of the world.
Best wishes.

1The Man Who was Arrested for Beating and Choking His Wife while Wearing an "I ♥ MY MARRIAGE" Shirt
2The Ontario Man Who was Arrested for Driving a Stolen Car to Jail to Serve His Sentence
Lawyer Albert Smelko said his client was "physically incapable" of getting himself to the Toronto-area jail. However, Judge Kevin Sherwood noted that when Morin was stopped by police on his way to jail, he'd been driving the stolen vehicle for four days. He also noted that Morin has a lengthy criminal record with convictions for breaking and entering, possession of stolen property, and breach of probation, serving time "annually" and "semi-annually."
Smelko called for a six-month sentence, but the Crown pushed for a "bumped-up" sentence of 12 to 15 months, saying that Morin's previous jail terms haven't been a deterrent. If he doesn't change, Morin will "be doing a life sentence on the installment plan," Romano warned. Sherwood sentenced Morin to 120 days for breach of probation and six months for possession of stolen property, minus time served of 50 days. (Source)
3The Fugitive Who Tipped Off His Own Arrest with a "WANTED" Shirt
A patrolling police officer who had passed an elementary-level nationwide English proficiency test approached Wu because of his T-shirt. Further questioning of Wu and a status check on the police computer system led to the arrest.
Wu told police that the T-shirt was a gift from his son and he would not have worn it had he known what "WANTED" meant. (Source)
4The Man Who was Arrested for Driving Drunk on the Way to Court for a Previous Drunk Driving Charge
He arrived late to his 10:30 a.m. preliminary hearing after the state troopers brought him to the court room following his arrest. The hearing was continued, but it became a bail hearing instead, with Magisterial District Judge James K. Reiley setting Rubino's bail at $20,000. (Source)
5The Muslim Imam Who Claimed that Women Who Don't Wear Hijabs are "Asking to Be Raped" and was Later Arrested for Attempted Rape
The Islamic mufti in Copenhagen sparked political outcry from the left-wing Unity List and right-wing Danish People's Party after stating in a televised interview that women who do not wear headscarves are "asking for rape."
But to make a long story horrible, the Mufti followed up his Koranic teaching by pulling his penis out and chasing a 23-year-old woman through a park in Malmö in August 2012. The woman managed to get away, and she called the police, who arrested the man a few minutes later. The woman told the police that she lives close to the park, and was out walking her puppy.
It's unknown whether or not the woman was wearing a Hijab, or whether her dog was wearing a Hijab. Either way, a Muslim court would have found her guilty. Unfortunately for Mehdi, all this is taking place in Europe, where the lack of a Hijab has not been widely accepted as justification for attempted sexual assault. Finally, it was revealed that Imam Mehdi, the Hijabi mandator, apparently used to sell women's lingerie. (Source)
6The Pimp Who was Arrested for Prostituting a 17-year-old while Wearing an Ironic "I Make Pimpin' Look Easy" T-Shirt
Members of the SDPD's vice unit arranged a meeting at the hotel based on an advertisement they found on backpage.com. An undercover cop responded to an advertisement for a female prostitute, who agreed to perform oral and vaginal sex for $80.
When the prostitute arrived, they arrested her and discovered that she was only 17-years-old. The undercover cops then took her phone and started texting her pimp, asking, "How much for anal?" He replied with the message, "Break the bank."
The number sent a message later asking how much the prostitute got for the sex act and she replied "5," meaning $500, and he wrote, "damn cool." When he later arrived at the hotel room to pick up the prostitute, officers noted in their report that he was wearing a T-shirt that read, "I MAKE PIMPIN' LOOK EASY."
Well, apparently it wasn't that easy. (Source)
7The Judge Who Fined Himself for Cell Phone Use in the Courtroom
Voet, a man who honors his own convictions, fined himself and held himself in contempt. "Judges are humans," Voet said. "They're not above the rules. I broke the rule, and I have to live by it."
The judge promptly issued himself a $25 fine and admitted that he was embarrassed, saying that the incident was accidental as he's learning to use a new type of phone. You see, for years Voet used a BlackBerry. However, he recently switched to a touchscreen smartphone. (Source)
8The Man Who Got Arrested while Wearing a "JAIL SUCKS" Shirt
Castner was arrested on charges of welfare fraud as part of a Manatee County sheriff's office undercover sting entitled Operation Meal Ticket. Manatee deputies arrested forty other people and have warrants out for dozens more in the undercover sting operation. Castner is accused of selling Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) cards to undercover agents.
After he was booked, Castner was forced to ditch his ironic T-shirt for more traditional prison garb and a mug shot. (Source)
9The People Who Got Arrested for Holding the Most Ironic Signs
Some people were holding signs displaying the Wisconsin constitutional article giving them the right to display signs, while some people held Red Cross shirts. Ironically, they were all arrested on a bogus charge.

Seahawks have to own to get any credit whatsoever.
I may be misremembering, but I think the '05 team had a pretty fair showing in the probowl.
If the Hawks can make the 9'ers their unfortunate prison roommate that dropped the soap like this last game, but starting earlier in the year, I think they'll likely get the props they deserve.
The national media is stupid, but mostly they're just slow. If you get going right out of the box they'll figure it out while it still matters.
1 player on our defense, with it's best player excluded is a travesty though. Some people should lose their right to vote at a certain point. Some of these guys would've voted for a third and 4th term of Bush it seems.

OROY Candidate:
Russell Wilson =
Passing Yards 2,868, 25 TD, 10 Int, Comp% 63.4, Rushing Yards 431, Avg 5.6, 3 TD
One of the hottest QBs in the league right now!
DROY Candidate:
Bobby Wagner =
Tackles 130, 2 Sacks, 3 Int, 6 Tackles for loss
The play caller for one of the best defenses in the league, and also one of the better young LBs in the league..
So I think the Hawks have a good chance to have both OROY and DROY on this roster, and that's not even talking about Bruce Irvin's impact on this team...
Why is everyone posting these posts now after this win? Seattle beat an absolute beat up 9er team without arguably their best defensive player, in Seattle. If SF was at full strength and could actually play I can see this much trash talk and confidence but they've beaten Arizona, Buffalo, and
a team coming off a trip across the country playing on defense for 92 plays.
Just tone this down a bit, we were all saying how bad/overated our defense was a couple weeks ago. Now they're almighty and one of the best? C'mon man.
Wagner shouldn't be DPOY. He's got playmakers around him. Kuechly should get it. I hope Wagner does though.
Russell definately should though i think. extremely poised and confident and efficient.
Seattle 67 plays vs Buffalo 2500 miles away
San Francisco 92 plays vs NE 3100 miles away
The fact is both teams played across country and both had alot of defensive plays. But seattle showed out and kicked butt. quit it with the excuses. SF got dominated. with or without Justin Smith!!!

I think Russ, Bobby and Pete all deserve individual honours but all 3 will come up short. Bobby will be the most unlucky imo, deserves it more than Kuechly but i reckon Kuechly wins based off his number of tackles and the fact that rest of of his teammates suck.
Russ wont win, just doesnt get the hype of the other 2 and his poor first month may hurt him. Think RG3 deserves it ahead of him anyway. and lastly Pete will probably come 2nd to Arians which im cool with. Arians has done a heck off of a job taking that team to playoffs as an interim.
Surely John is a certainty to get executive of the year?

Is it crazy to think rgiii and Wilson share the award as co-Roy? I can't decide between luck, rgiii and Wilson for the award, they both have claim to having the best season for different reasons

I think there are a few ways Wilson gets OROY:
- If the Skins don't make the playoffs, I think Russ wins.
- If Wilson breaks the TD record, his odds go way up.
- If we win the division.

RG3 will win. He got into the pro bowl and Wilson didn't so that right there tells you who is going to get it. They're not going to put him in the pro bowl and then give it to Wilson.
As for DROY, the kid from Green Bay (Harris) will win it. Green Bay is a huge market so they'll do anything to appease the fans and I'm sure the whole fail mary thing will come up again from ESPN when it's Harris over Wagner. "This time, we got it right!" or some stupid thing like that. And of course, "Wagner first played against Harris in the fail mary game blah blah blah."
God I hate the media. So predictable these days.

Peter King at SI.com has a vote for the NFL awards given each year by the Associated Press, and he tabs Wilson as the Offensive Rookie of the Year and Wagner as the Defensive Rookie of the Year.
King on Wilson: Wilson over Robert Griffin III and Andrew Luck. Morphing from a laughed-at 5-foot-11, 75th pick in the draft into a tornado-like force at quarterback by December (three games, 150 points, including 42 against the mighty Niners), and playing like Fran Tarkenton with a better arm, Wilson nipped Griffin in my opinion. But if you want either other man, I have zero problem or argument with you.
King on Wagner: Bobby Wagner, edging Green Bay cornerback Casey Hayward and Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly. Wagner turned a suspect group of Seattle linebackers, the weak point of the Seahawks defense, into a competitive group by being great against the run (more tackles than Patrick Willis) and good dropping into coverage (three interceptions, excellent instincts).

Peter King only looked at Bobby Wagner's stats
He is still my pick for DPOY, but he has been exposed against the pass (which all of the rookie LB's are guilty of).

I'd give OROY to Luck because of what he has produced with essentially a talentless roster and I'd give DROY to Kuechly over Wagner by a slight margin.
I don't even think I'd male RG3 the OROY on his own team. I think what Alfred Morris has done has been more impressive.
I'd probably have Wilson and Wagner as my runner up in each category.
Just my opinion.

Oh, and I don't wanna hear any of the no Justin Smith excuses for SF. Justin Smith is a DE and we beat them by a crap ton. No way he even makes a palpable difference in that game. He isn't even their best defender...

I'm gonna need a better reason for Luck than "look what he did with that crap team". His numbers are substantially worse than both Wilson and Griffin. He wouldn't even be 3rd for me if I had a ballot.

Luck probably also has the most talented set of receivers and an OL comparable to what Seattle has been.

I think you're confusing "set of receivers" with "receiver".
Of the three rookie QBs - Luck has undoubtably the best WR1 in Reggie Wayne. But TY Hilton (3rd Round Rookie), Donnie Avery (journeyman) and LaVonn Brazill (6th Round Rookie) are not "the most talented set of receivers". I'm sure most teams would take Golden Tate, Doug Baldwin and Jermaine Kearse over them or they would take Hankerson, Morgan and Moss. You could argue that the combo of Tate/Baldwin/Kearse is similar in talent to Hilton/Avery/Brazill but there's no way you can argue that the Redskins don't have the best set of receivers.
To your next point - The Colts O-Line is HORRIBLE! The worst I have ever seen.
Anthony Castonzo (LT): The only legitimate player on the line, a former first round pick with 12 starts prior to this season. Still young but he's a decent LT.
Joe Reitz (LG): Signed as a FA with only 9 starts prior, he's a career journeyman and a former UDFA. I'd challenge you to find anyone who could answer this questions correctly "Joe Reitz: Colts O-Lineman or Member of Congress?"
Samson Satele (C): Signed as a FA this year because Oakland didnt' think he was worth the money he was asking for. He's a legit run-blocker but he's not a great pass-blocker.
Mike McGlynn (RG): A career back-up who was just signed this off-season as well after spending a year warming the bench with the Bengals.
Winston Justice (RT): A laughing stock of a player who is most well known for allowing 86 sacks in a game when he was with the Eagles. Another first-year signee.
66% of their line is brand new, only Castonzo and Reitz were leftover from 2011. Two of their FA signees were back-ups who nobody wanted and Samson Satele was their "marquee FA Addition" to shore up the line.
And you want to compare that to a line in Seattle with Okung (First Rounder) and Unger (One of the best C's in the league) and Wilson has had either Moffitt (high pick) or Carpenter (1st rounder) at his disposal. Seattle literally has a better player at every position on OL except RG where we've been forced to start a rookie DE because of injuries.
Okung > Castonzo
McQuistan > Reitz
Unger > Satele
Sweezy < McGlynn
Breno > Justice
So what was the point you were trying to make again?
Luck doesn't have the pure stats but he's done an incredible job with the Colts given the fact that the team was thrown together with bits and pieces from the scrap heap. Luck didn't have an elite running game. He didn't a great defense. You can make an argument for all three but don't pretend like Luck had a great supporting cast on offense.

If I am being non biased, I think RG3 should win OROY. He has clearly put up the better stats and does deserve the award. However, I am really pulling for Wilson, and I think he has more of a chance of winning it now that he is the only remaining rookie QB in the playoffs. Andrew Luck isnt in the running anymore IMO. Personally, I would give 2nd place in the MVP ballot behind AP. He is more valuable to that team then he is actually good.
If I am being non biased again, I would actually give Bobby Wagner DPOY. There are no stand out candidates, but I think he deserves it the most. Since week 1, he has been the most consistent. Week after week he has lead our team in tackles. While most people think that playing around great players will work against him winning the award, I disagree, I think it will help him. Especially because he is the play caller on this studly D.
I also think Pete deserves Coach of the year, But there is no doubt in my mind that will go to Bruce Arians. And I also think Jon Schneider gets Executive of the year, hands down. Who else would get it?

If you take QB out of the equation, the Colts have 1 offensive player that would start on the Seahawks or the Redskins... And they have the worst defense... And they won 11 games on the strength of 7 game winning drives by Luck and that shoddy offense.. And he broke the rookie passing yardage mark because nobody fears the dreaded Vick Ballard. Everyone knew he had to throw. Considering, he played extremely well.

Fox's Trumped Up Attack On Hoffa Just Latest Example Of Their Selective Outrage
Research ››› ››› CHELSEA RUDMAN
Fox has repeatedly attacked Teamsters president James Hoffa's statement that union members should "take these son of a bitches out" at a Labor Day rally, suggesting his comments constituted "a call for violence [toward] peaceful tea party members." But Hoffa was not endorsing violence -- he was urging his audience to remove elected officials by voting; furthermore, Fox has a history downplaying explicit threats or violent rhetoric when they are directed at Democrats and progressives.
Fox Attacks Hoffa's Comments As "A Call For Violence"
Fox & Friends Attack Hoffa's Comments, Hype Claim That They "Amount To A Call For Violence On Peaceful Tea Party Members." On the September 6 edition of Fox News' Fox & Friends, after airing video of James Hoffa's remarks at a rally in Detroit, MI, the three co-hosts discussed the comments and suggested Hoffa was calling for violence against tea party members:
GRETCHEN CARLSON (co-host): Wait a minute, "take them out." That has a certain connotation that is not good news for members of the tea party.
BRIAN KILMEADE (co-host): Right. If you're in the UFC or the WWE, it makes perfect sense.
STEVE DOOCY (co-host): Sure.
KILMEADE: Yes, it does. Knock them out.
DOOCY: Or take out for dinner, that would be great. But that's not what he's talking about.
KILMEADE: And a bit of a surprise. And this is something that clearly goes against what the president said to bring an era of decorum to the debate and not make it so personal. Remember? He said that about a year ago, after the tragic shooting of Gabby Giffords.
DOOCY: Well, maybe this guy didn't hear. Neither did Maxine Waters.
DOOCY: And regarding the tea party, the Tea Party Express, the head, Amy Kramer, said, "Hoffa's remarks are inexcusable and amount for a call for violence on peaceful tea party members which include many Teamster members." Remember, there are a lot of members of the teamsters union that are also tea party members. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 9/6/11]
Fox Guest Blakeman Calls Comments "Thuggery At Its Best," Suggests "Legs Are Going To Get Broken, Somebody's Going To Disappear." On the September 5 edition of Fox News' America Live, an edited version of Hoffa's remarks was aired. Host Megyn Kelly then asked guest and Republican consultant Brad Blakeman to comment on the cropped video. Blakeman called the comments "thuggery at its best," adding, "It's what unions are good at." Blakeman also said the comments were "the kind of remarks you'd expect out of Tony Soprano" and that "when a union president says 'let's take these son of a bitches out,' it usually means someone's legs are going to get broken, somebody's going to disappear." [Fox News, America Live, 9/5/11, via Media Matters]
But Hoffa Urged Audience To Vote Out Elected Officials -- Not Resort To Violence
Hoffa Told Audience: "Everybody Here's Got To Vote ... Let's Take These Son Of A Bitches Out." In his full comments, Hoffa was urging his audience to vote out Republican members of Congress -- not inciting violence. As the unedited version of Hoffa's comments which aired on Fox & Friends' showed, Hoffa said:
HOFFA (video): We got to keep an eye on the battle that we face, the war on workers. And you see it everywhere -- it is the tea party. And you know, there's only one way to beat and win that war. The one thing about working people is, we like a good fight. And you know what? They got a war, they got a war with us. And there's only going to be one winner.
President Obama, this is your army. We are ready to march.
Everybody here's got to vote. If we go back and we keep the eye on the prize, let's take these son of a [bitches] out and give America back to America where we belong. Thank you very much! Thank you! Thank you. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 9/6/11; Media Matters, 9/5/11]
Fox Has Consistently Downplayed Violent Rhetoric And Threats Directed At Democrats, Progressives
Hannity: "So Do You Think That This Is Just An Effort To Smear Conservatives?" During the March 24, 2010, edition of his Fox News show, Sean Hannity discussed threats made to Democratic lawmakers during debate over health care reform. Hannity said that Democrats "are trying to make a big deal over the weekend and this is denied by a lot of people. I have not seen the videotape that confirms this yet. If anyone has it, send it to me. I want to see it, of racial slurs, anti-gay slurs being made at the Tea Party movement. Do we have any evidence that corroborates this at all?" Later, he asked: "So do you think that this is just an effort to smear conservatives? Is this a concerted effort to say, you know what? They are all a bunch of racists; they're all a bunch of homophobes?" [Fox News, Hannity, 3/24/10 via Media Matters]
Doocy: "So Why Are People Angry? Maybe Because They Didn't Want This [Health Care] Bill?" On the March 25, 2010, edition of Fox & Friends, while teasing a segment about threats against Democrats, Doocy said: "Meanwhile, some House Democrats getting extra security after a series of death threats and even a little vandalism over their health care votes. So why are people angry? Well, maybe because they didn't want this [health care] bill?" [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 3/25/10 via Media Matters]
Carlson Agrees It's "Disappointing" That Democrats Are Making Threats So Public And Says "They Should Just Stop Discussing It All Together." After Doocy said that Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) "thinks the Democrat lawmakers are feeding the public's frenzy over the threats by discussing them so openly in the media," Fox & Friends co-host Gretchen Carlson said: "It's such a political thing, though, guys. I think it would be happening on the other side of the fence, too, that maybe the other political party would try to take advantage of a situation, and that's disappointing. I think it's disappointing -- they should just stop discussing it all together. Just agree on the fact that it's disappointing behavior, no matter who's doing it." Later, after Kilmeade said, "You hurt your own cause when you have racial epithets or have homophobic phrases," Carlson stated, "It ruins it for everybody, just like the kid who acts up at the birthday party." [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 3/25/10 via Media Matters]
Fox & Friends Airs Viewer Emails Comparing Threats Against Democrats To American Revolution, William Ayers. Later on the March 25, 2010 edition of Fox & Friends, after Carlson said, "The most important thing is what you think about all of this, because you are the ones that are going to go to the polls eventually," Fox & Friends aired several emails from viewers that condemned the threats but also appeared to defend violent actions. One email claimed that Democrats are using the threats "to gain sympathy. Like Rahm Emanuel said, 'you never waste a crisis.'" Another read: "[W]hat did they expect when they basically stole from the American people. What do they think 1776 was about & wasn't there some violence back then?" A third email said: "I don't like violence & it is wrong. Having said that, why should Democrats be surprised? Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground bombed the Pentagon & now he is a 'respected' speaker of the left. Why should Democrats expect anything different?"
Excerpts from the emails:

Cupp: Democrats "Want Us To Feel Sorry For Them That They've Gotten A Couple Of ... Angry Voicemails." During the March 24, 2010, edition of Hannity, Fox News contributor S.E. Cupp said, "You know, Democrats who did this -- who sort of rammed this [health care bill] down our throats regardless of the fact that it actually won't save us any money, it's going to bankrupt us and the American people didn't want it -- want us to feel sorry for them that they've gotten a couple of angry, you know, voicemails. They should read my e-mail. You know, what did they expect? No one condones threats. No one condones the violence, but I'm glad people are angry. I hope they stay angry."

Fox Nation: "Are Threats Really Elevated, Or Are Dems Playing Politics?" In March 2010, Fox Nation displayed a picture of several Democratic congressmen alongside the headline, "Are Threats Really Elevated, or Are Dems Playing Politics?" The headline linked to a NewsBusters post that claimed there were "no specific examples of alleged threats of violence [against Democrats] cited" and that the media and politicians are "trying to construct a meme of conservative violence as we run up to the 2010 elections."

Charles Krauthammer: "I'm Sure A Lot Of This Is Trumped Up. ... You Are Always Going To Have A Kook And A Nut Here And There." On the March 24, 2010, edition of Fox News' Special Report, Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer said of the threats, "I'm sure a lot of this is trumped up the way of the unruliness of some of the crowd on the day of the voting in the House was trumped up. You are always going to have a kook and a nut here and there. It's being used by supporters of Obamacare to tar opponents with, you know, threats, violence, being un-American in general. I think it ought to be denounced, as the Republicans have. It should be. But it's not reflective of those who oppose the bill." [Fox News, Special Report, 3/24/10 via Media Matters]
Trotta: "The Left Wing Virtually Invented Violent Dissent" And The Press Is "Wildly Exaggerating And Embroidering" Threats To Members Of Congress. On the March 27, 2010, edition of Fox News' America's News HQ, Fox News contributor Liz Trotta said: "The left wing virtually invented violent dissent going all the way back to the 1960s. So to hear everybody wildly exaggerating and embroidering what's happened in Washington is really rather laughable. And the media has been suckered into it."
