Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/8/2014 (1118 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Winnipeg Jets have signed another free-agent forward, inking left-winger T.J. Galiardi.
The 26-year-old Calgary native played last season for the hometown Flames, recording four goals and 17 points in 62 games, though he was a healthy scratch numerous times.
He was not extended a qualifying offer by the Flames at the end of June, tossing him into the unrestricted-free-agent pool.
Galiardi was originally a Colorado Avalanche draft pick in the second round of 2007.
He had 15 goals in his first full NHL season, 2009-10, but could never improve upon or match that performance.
He was moved by Colorado to San Jose in 2012. The Sharks then shopped him to Calgary last July for a fourth-round pick in the 2015 draft.
Calgary signed him to a $1.25-million deal for one year.
Two summers ago, Galiardi took Sharks to arbitration and wound up with a $950,000, one-year contract.
Winnipeg signed Galiardi to a one-year, two way contract worth $750,000.

I don't know if its possible to get what I need to attempt a backcountry hunt this year with my budget but I am looking for some honest opinions. I have a stove, GPS, sleeping bag/pad. I would need a tent/bivy, pack, and any other recommended gear. My budget couldn't be more than $500, and I would like to stay much under that. Used equipment or new. Any advice, or help would be much appreciated. Thanks and happy scouting/hunting!

FAMILIES had to be evacuated from their homes following a suspected bomb scare.
Police were called to Rigby Grove in Little Hulton at about 5.20pm yesterday after an unexploded mortar shell was found. It was detonated this morning.
More than 15 homes were evacuated.
Police confirmed the shell had been discovered in a garden.
An officer at the scene said: "There will be nothing done with it tonight."
The cordon remained in place last night and police said it would not be lifted until the bomb squad had finished their inspections.
People were unable to return to their homes in the residential street while the cordon was in force. They returned this morning.
It is believed the bomb was found in a semi-detached house at the bottom end of the cul-de-sac.
A small crowd of local residents gathered to watch the comings and going of the emergency services.
There were several police cars and Police Community Support Officers at the scene. A bomb disposal van also attended.

HOUSTON - Today will be a very busy day along the Gulf Coast as communities prepare for the eventual landfall of Isaac. The center of Isaac is expected to make landfall late Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, however, because Isaac is a large storm adverse conditions will begin overspreading the northern gulf coast as early as Tuesday morning. While the current forecast has the center of Isaac making landfall in southeast Louisiana, there is an unusual amount of uncertainty in eventual track for a large storm with only a short time to go before landfall, keeping most of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama coastal communities at risk. By later today, it will be clearer where the precise track at landfall will be.
How strong will Isaac be? Our best computer models continue to forecast steady strengthening with Isaac reaching around 90 to 100 mph before reaching the coast. Indeed, warmer Gulf waters and an expected favorable wind environment along the path across the eastern Gulf of Mexico support this forecast. However, working against this trend has been a lack of organization of the strong thunderstorms near the center. While satellite imagery shows some strengthening may be underway, as of early this morning, Isaac still hadn't developed an eye wall. I have noticed in the past that storms of a large size without a well-defined inner core frequently struggle to gain an inner core and higher winds. Let's hope that is the case with Isaac. Hurricane Hunter aircraft will be continuously flying Isaac and will give us the valuable information needed to determine if and when the anticipated intensification is underway.
Near and well to the east of where Isaac's center makes landfall significant storm surge flooding of 4 to 6 feet will be widespread. Some highly vulnerable areas where the strongest winds occur surge could reach up to 12 feet. While not in Katrina's class, those living near the coast will suffer the effects of this surge. Because of Isaac's size, it is forecast to slow down considerably at and after landfall, extremely heavy rainfall of 10 to 15 inches and perhaps more than 20 inches could fall in some locations over the next several days causing widespread fresh water flooding. Power outages, trees down and structural damage to poorly constructed building can be expected from Isaac's winds.
If Isaac tracks further west than the current forecast, we could experience the fringe effects of the west side the storm on Wednesday. The early morning forecast had our area in a 10-20 percent chance of experiencing tropical storm conditions on Wednesday. Stay tuned!

City honours Mikkelson
Meaghan Mikkelson Day recognizes first St. Albert female to win two Olympic gold medals
Wednesday, Mar 26, 2014 01:45 pm
Saturday was Meaghan Mikkelson Day as the City of St. Albert rolled out the red carpet for the Team Canada defenceman.
The first St. Albert female of distinction to be awarded two Olympic gold medals was described by Mayor Nolan Crouse in the city�s proclamation statement as �a true ambassador and role model for hockey, specifically girls' hockey, in St. Albert and Canada� and �will always be remembered for her outstanding contributions to hockey in this country of Canada.�
Mikkelson, 29, was humbled by the accolades, including a $500 donation by the city to her charity of choice � Canadian Tire Jumpstart � while standing outside Northstar Hyundai Arena, where inside her plaque hangs on the St. Albert skating wall of fame.
�Wow! I sure wasn�t expecting that!� Mikkelson said to a loud round of applause from fans waiting patiently to meet her. �It�s an amazing day and a special day for my family and I.�
Mikkelson passed out heartfelt thank yous to Crouse, the city and St. Albert Minor Hockey Association before praising parents, Bill and Betsy, and husband, Scott Reid, who were all in attendance, for their support throughout her career.
�As for my parents I wouldn�t be where I am today without all those early mornings driving me to the rink and the many hours that you put in to ultimately become the person I am today. I love you guys and thank you for everything you�ve done for me,� Mikkelson said.
�As for my husband, Scott, a hockey player himself, in the Olympic years he always had to take a back seat to hockey and to be on the back burner while I pursued my goals and my dreams but he always understood being a hockey player himself so I have to thank him for putting up with me coming home grumpy from the rink so many days this year and he was still there to help cook dinner and do the laundry or do the little things. I couldn�t have done any of this without him.�
Mikkelson�s second Olympic medal symbolized the sacrifices associated with winning the biggest prize at the Winter Games.
�I�m so happy to be back here today and celebrating this gold medal with all of you. It�s so special to me,� said the first female to play on a rep boys� hockey team in St. Albert.
The national team member since 2007 gave a detailed Cole�s Notes version of the season leading up to the Sochi Olympics.
�This year was an absolutely amazing year. It was a long journey for our team. We started in the middle of May with a month long boot camp in Penticton, B.C. There were very long days of training. We did everything you could possibly imagine. Hill sprints. Bike sprints. We were on the ice. We were in the gym. You name, it we did it pretty much,� Mikkelson recalled.
�We went home for about six weeks and trained on our own and then everyone moved to Calgary at the beginning of August and we thought those long days of training were over but we were very, very wrong.
�We played a 52 game schedule before we even went to the Olympics. We went through a lot. We lost our coach (Dan Church resigned Dec. 12 for personal reasons and was replaced by Kevin Dineen) just less than two months before the Olympics. We went through the difficult day of the final cuts being made, just three days before Christmas, and then we went through what turned out to be our longest month of training in January.
�When we got on that plane to go to Austria for our pre-competition camp we were absolutely exhausted and drained. We then went into the Olympics having gone 0-4 against the U.S., our biggest rivals, who we ended up playing against in the final (Canada also beat the Americans 3-2 in the last preliminary-round game at the Olympics).
�It was all those long, hard days that prepared us as a team to come back from a 2-0 deficit in the gold medal game at the Olympics. All of our hard work had paid off.�
Mikkelson jokingly apologized for putting everyone �through that stress and waiting 56 minutes and 34 seconds to score that first goal� by Canada against the United States.
Mikkelson assisted on Brianne Jenner�s goal, setting the stage for a classic 3-2 comeback victory in overtime in what is hailed as the greatest women�s hockey game ever played.
�What makes this medal so special and so amazing wasn�t the fact that we won, it was the way that we won that game and the way we never gave up. We never stopped believing that we can win that game and I think that�s what made it so special for us.�
Mikkelson was humble to a fault in not mentioning she played in the final with her right hand frozen and taped after breaking a bone in practice the day before the semifinal and didn�t play in the 3-1 win against Switzerland.
The former bantam AAA St. Albert Sabre was on the ice for 21:44 minutes against the Americans and the assist on Jenner�s goal was her first point in two Olympics.
Fans thrilled
The Sochi medallion, along with the gold medal from the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, were on display for fans to hold and pose with during the autograph and picture taking session of Saturday�s event at Servus Credit Union Place.
The first person in line to meet Mikkelson was Jared Vokurka, 12, of Morinville.
�It�s cool to have a person from Team Canada that lives in St. Albert do this,� said Vokurka, before adding: �The medals are heavy.�
Kade Marano, 11, was rocking a vintage Quebec Nordiques cap while waiting for an autograph for himself and a buddy.
�It�s nice that she is here because she played on Team Canada, which is pretty cool. There is not a lot of St. Albert players who get the chance to play for Team Canada,� Marano said.
Mary Babichuk, 12, a right winger with the St. Albert Extreme, was thrilled to meet her hometown hero.
�It was really awesome because I play hockey too and I really want to be like her,� Babichuk said. �One day (at school) I was writing this project about your favourite idol and I wrote about her. It turned out my teacher knew her and he told her about it and she sent me a picture and that was really cool.�
Lauren Sutcliffe, 10, brought a special puck from Edmonton Minor Hockey Week for Mikkelson to sign.
�(In the playoffs) we were tied 2-2 in the third period and then we went five on five, four on four, three on three, two on two and then my coach put me out for one on one and I scored the winning goal and this is the puck,� said the St. Albert Ice Crushers defenceman.
Sutcliffe also aced a school assignment on her favourite player.
�We had to do a report on a Canadian athlete and I picked Meaghan Mikkelson because she was from St. Albert and I learned a lot about her,� she said. �I want to do what she did when I grow up so it was really exciting for me to meet her today.�

Today Adobe released beta versions of Flash Builder 4, the Flex 4 SDK, and Flash Catalyst. Builder is a development environment for creating Flex, AIR, and ActionScript applications; Flex is the collection of open-source components with which you can populate your application; and Flash Catalyst aims to allow designers and developers to rapidly create the Flex interface and code, respectively.
I recommend checking out the Catalyst beta in particular, as it's a brand new product that should be put through its paces. It remains to be seen how far designers can go with it, but you can already import Photoshop and Illustrator projects and convert artwork into components, which a developer (using Flash Builder) can import and flesh out into a working application. I'm doing the development side of things with an internal Adobe application, and importing an FXP from Catalyst has removed some of the difficulty in laying out a UI in FB. I find the combination of assets from Catalyst with Flash Builder 4's Design View to be preferable to Flex 3 and embedding skins only in CSS, for example. Catalyst exports components that use the new skinning architecture.
You can download the betas here: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flash/
If you want to see how Catalyst and Flash Builder work, here's Kevin Lynch demoing it at the Web 2.0 conference, and the Adobe page has two videos.
If you find bugs, I encourage you to report them; developers read every bug that's submitted: https://bugs.adobe.com/flex/
One thing I've noticed about the pre-release versions of Catalyst: don't uninstall it on OS X by dragging it to the trash; it's possible that a future installer will tell you "beta or pre-release versions of the following products are installed on this machine, and must be uninstalled before this application can proceed." If you find yourself in this situation, try the following steps:
- Browse to /Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/Installers
- Open the numbered folders
- Run the Uninstall.app that has the Flash Catalyst icon
- If that fails to uninstall Catalyst, try Setup.app instead
We should see some very compelling Flex and AIR apps in the near future.

Arlington, TX (SportsNetwork.com) - Mitch Moreland's two-run home run helped the Texas Rangers to a 6-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in the finale of a three-game set.
Alex Rios drove in a pair of runs, while Shin-Soo Choo went 2-for-3 with an RBI and two runs scored for the Rangers, who snapped a four-game slide.
"We just wanted to go out and get back to playing Texas Rangers baseball and trust each other as a teammate," Moreland said. "We know we're capable of doing special things as a team and this was a good first step."
Nick Martinez pitched five innings in the start for Texas and allowed a run on four hits, while Aaron Poreda (2-0) got the win for tossing two innings in relief.
Edwin Encarnacion and Juan Francisco hit solo homers for the Blue Jays, who had a three-game winning streak stopped. R.A. Dickey (4-4) lost for the first time in six starts as he was touched for four runs on three hits with three walks in 6 1/3 innings.
"We're definitely going in the right direction but there's more there," Dickey said. "I think we all know it. Today's a game we probably should have won."
This game stayed scoreless until the fourth when Francisco hit a one-out solo home run, his eighth of the season, to give the Blue Jays a 1-0 lead.
Texas, though, answered in the home half to take the lead. With one out, Choo singled and Adrian Beltre walked. Rios then tripled to right for a 2-1 lead.
Toronto tied the game in the sixth on Encarnacion's one-out solo homer, a shot over the left-center wall for his ninth of the season.
The Rangers grabbed the lead back in the seventh as Moreland blasted a pitch over the right field wall for a 4-2 lead. Rios reached base prior to Moreland's at-bat when Francisco misplayed a grounder to third.
Texas padded its lead in the eighth on an RBI double from Choo, followed by a run-scoring single from Beltre for a 6-2 lead.
Joakim Soria, who turned 30 on Sunday, tossed a scoreless ninth to complete the victory.
Game Notes
Before the game, Texas recalled outfielder Daniel Robertson from Triple-A Round Rock and optioned pitcher Miles Mikolas to Round Rock ... Texas has off on Monday before hosting Seattle for a brief two-game set starting on Tuesday ... Toronto starts a three-game series in Boston on Tuesday.

FOLLOWING the success of its first ever Puppet Festival two years ago, Poole's Lighthouse Theatre has announced a second chance for visitors to see just how the strings are pulled.
The second Puppet Festival takes place at the Poole attraction next month and it boasts a series of workshops and performances, including a show from the company behind the giant puppetry that wowed a global audience at the London Olympics opening ceremony.
This year's event gives families the chance to try their hand at two different arts and crafts workshops, including making unicorn masks ahead of a production of Nobody Rides the Unicorn.
Meanwhile, youngsters are being invited to explore a "vibrant, sensory world" at the interactive co-production of Three Colours, courtesy of the Norwich Puppet Theatre and Polka Theatre.
But theatre spokesman Susie Carver insists the festival is not just for young children: "It features some slightly darker puppetry suitable for only over 12s, including a work in progress showing The Puppet Monologues from Blind Summit.
Another performance tipped to be an adult audience favourite is The Shop of Little Horrors.
It has been described as a dark and twisted show with a wicked sense of humour, featuring a collection of macabre characters.
Co-founder of Pickled Image and The Shop of Little Horrors producer Vicky Andrews said: "We are really excited to be taking the show out on the road again.
"We are confident the puppets will have the desired effect of scaring people out of their wits during the show."
Festival programmer Helen Donaldson said: "We are particularly pleased to be welcoming Pickled Image to Poole for the first time.
"They are a skilled, innovative and dynamic company who explode the myth that puppets are just for children. One not to miss."
For tickets & information on the festival, that runs between February 14 and February 23, visit lighthousepoole.co.uk or call 0844 406 866.

Congratulations to the Winners of the 2008 National High School Moot Court Competition!!!
Michael Harris: Petitioner
(North Hollywood High School)
Rathna Ramamurthi: Respondent
(Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology)
On March 29-30, 2008 the Washington College of Law hosted the Ninth Annual "We the Students" National High School Moot Court Competition. The Competition takes place in Washington, D.C. and offers high school students, from across the nation, a unique opportunity to meet other participants while developing their advocacy skills in front of area law students, practitioners, and judges.
The Moot Court Honor Society is proud to welcome Final Round Judges:
Judge Irma Raker, Maryland Court of Appeals
Judge William Cave, Retired, Sixth Circuit Court of Maryland
Senator Jamin Raskin, Maryland State Legislature
2008 Problem: A "Ruff" Policy - Drug Sniffing Canines
Mimicking a national trend, amphetamine abuse is on the rise in the community surrounding Rockefeller High School. In response, Rockefeller High School has adopted a new program to enforce the school's controlled substance policy, that includes random searches of students using drug detecting canines. When the trained dogs alert to three students during the first (and only) round of canine sniffs the students file a class action suit claiming the dog sniffs are illegal and unreasonable searches in violation of the Fourth Amendment.
* We will accept clarification questions regarding the problem via mootcourths@gmail through February 15th with responses posted by February 22, 2008. Please include "Clarification" in the email subject line. Good Luck!
Clarification Questions & Answers:
- What type of relief are the petitioner's seeking?
- In their initial complaint, Plaintiffs sought injunctive relief preventing any future searches using the sniffer dogs in this manner, as well as declaratory relief recognizing a violation of students' Fourth Amendment rights.
- Were there merely complaints of damage to clothing and belongings as a result of the dog sniffing or was there actual damage?
- The complaints were well-founded, there was actual damage to students' school supplies and clothing
The Fourth Amendment
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

During a Slopestyle training run, snowboarder Shaun White jammed his left wrist, generating some concern regarding the overall safety of slope style course, which has been taking its toll on contestants in the weeks leading up to the games.
White had this to say:
"It's frustrating to see it. It puts a damper on the whole mood and it's kind of like you're getting ready to do a big trick and you see something like that. Intimidating. Unfortunate. I'm hoping the builders can make some changes and the course has a little more of a friendly vibe. But I can't change the course. Just doing the best I can."
The multi-medal winner is expected to recover before the event.
UPDATE: White has dropped out of the event.

The USDA's release of its annual "Crop Production" report on Friday showed corn for grain production estimated at a record 13.9 billion bushels, down slightly from the Nov. 1 forecast. However, this is 29 percent above 2012.
Doane Advisory Services notes that the drop contrasts with trade expectations calling for a 75 million bushel increase.
The report also estimated average yield at 158.8 bushels per acre, more than 35 bushels above 2012's average yield. The area harvest for grain is estimated at 87.7 million acres.
Soybean production in 2013 totaled more than 3 billion bushels, up 8 percent from 2012 and the third largest on record.
The average soybean yield per acre is estimated 43.3 bushels, 3.5 bushels above last year's yield. Harvest area is down slightly from 2012 to 75.9 million acres making it the fourth highest on record.

Watch Comics Alliance's Chris Sims Spend Way Too Much Money On Sailor Moon Toys (Seriously)
Comic-Con International in San Diego is nothing if not a great excuse to buy things that you can't get anywhere else, and folks, I am no more immune to the siren song of consumerism than anyone else. For me, my particular vice comes in the form of action figures -- specifically the Tamashii Nations S.H. Figuarts line of high-end Japanese action figures. At their booth last weekend, they had not only all five of the Inner Senshi from Sailor Moon, but they also had that giant Hello Kitty that Hello Kitty herself pilots so that she can fly around and battle against giant monsters, aka the single greatest thing that has ever been produced by the hands of man.
Obviously, I had to buy it all. So to justify my expense (and for tax purposes), join us on a journey to the floor of San Diego and find out just how much money I spent on toys. The answer will not shock you, but it may give you the impression that I should never have been trusted with a debit card.

This morning, it was almost as cold in my garden as one of those snowy scenes you see in calendars printed in Wisconsin.
Unlike northern gardens buried in snow and asleep for the winter, my garden has four kinds of lettuce, a thick bed of multiplying onions that provide green tops for salads, cilantro, parsley, dill, Swiss chard, snow peas, thyme, rosemary, pineapple sage, oregano and marjoram, banana bushes, satsuma and Meyer lemon trees.
Four bushes have produced about 100 bell peppers this summer, fall and winter. The bushes have so far made it through this winter's nights, including a few that got close to freezing in my front-yard garden.
One winter, a bell pepper plant — too scraggly to be called a bush — made it until spring though it never again produced very large peppers. I think that pepper was pooped.
One recent morning, following a night of heavy rain, I went out to check on a lettuce bed I'd put in the day before.
The first lettuce bed went in at mid-September — black-seeded Simpson, arugula, romaine and red sails. It's the arugula we use most, but I like the textures of the different lettuces snugged up to each other in the garden.
My garden is too small for rows. I plant on flat, well-worked soil, broadcasting the seed of different lettuces. I overseed, then thin as the lettuces mature. Once the different lettuces are no longer competing for space, I harvest only leaves from different plants.
Once the first bed is producing, I start a second bed that will start to mature in late January. That second bed, and sometimes the first will produce until the lettuce bolts (goes to seed) in late spring.
Planting heat-sensitive plants to receive morning light only may delay bolting.
I planted the winter garden in a cloud of mosquitoes, sweat rolling into my eyes. The trick is to plant lettuce while it's still warm enough to pop the seed but not so warm that the seedlings succumb to the heat.
These early January days, I garden to the sound of glass bottles clanking against pieces of metal hanging by fishing line from the limbs of a satsuma tree.
The wind chimes are visited by neighborhood children who look wistfully at unpicked satsumas too high for them or me to reach unless I get out the stepladder.
There was a little dirt left to plant in my front-yard garden where the amount of daylight is marginal. I planted English daisy seed so I could discover the colorful, empty seed packet on a stick on gray winter mornings.
It used to upset me when after carefully preparing a lettuce bed, broadcasting the tiny seed and watering it in critters dug in the loose earth.
Squirrels first bury nuts in my garden and pots and, then, dig them up. Armadillos are after white grubs.
The cats enthusiastically cultivated the dirt after I fertilized with fish emulsion. They were disappointed to find nuts and grubs but not halibut.

You are here: Home » General » "It's Time to Thank the Man Instead"
Of course the conservative response to comparing Ted Cruz and Joe McCarthy is to embrace McCarthy.
To the kind of people that support Cruz, if your baseless and harmful allegations can be dusted off and used in a new context, then you've been completely vindicated.
Didn't Coulter start this schtick a few years ago?
Coulter didn't "start this shtick a few years ago" because it never went away in the first place. Conservatives have always loved McCarthy, both the man and his tactics. In fact, conservatives haven't changed at all–the way they're acting under Obama is pretty much the way they've been acting for decades and decades.
Pretty much. Conservatism is a reservoir of all sorts of ideological infections.
Yep. I happened to be in Appleton, Wisconsin several years back, and took some, ah, irreverent pictures at McCarthy's gravesite. My conservative hosts were not amused.
How much beer did you drink beforehand?
Probably not as much as McCarthy used to drink with breakfast.

Once again proving that you do not know WTF you are talking about and have no comprehension of quantitative methods.
Yes, saying that all the Dixiecrats in the first list weren't conservative is highly delusional, the Dixiecrats were all over the map except for the issue of civil rights depending on what Southern state they came from.
Is it just rose glasses, or senility coming on, but does this list of names seems to be better, smarter people than the current Senate crop? What happened to the place?
Is it just rose glasses, or senility coming on, but does this list of names seems to be better, smarter people than the current Senate crop? What happened to the place?
What happened is that the South moved right after the fall of Jim Crow, on almost all issues except Civil Rights…where it improved.
Thats why the most sophisticated Political Scientists view civil rights as detached from the left-right ideological spectrum. The (20-22) psychopathic maggots listed above were actually moderates who leaned left.
You can't understand the current polarization of politics without a 2-dimensional view of American politics (left-right = one dimension/ civil rights for Af-ams = second one)
Thats why the most sophisticated Political Scientists view civil rights as detached from the left-right ideological spectrum.
And that is why the idea that voting is a right is completely unassailed on either the left or the right. Same with marriage equality, and women's rights.
Wait, what?
Same with marriage equality, and women's rights.
Thats why I specified "for af-ams". Civil Rights for homosexuals aligns to the left-right ideological axis.
Wonder why you are not mentioning the Voting Rights Act. Actually, I'm not wondering that at all.
But hey, you have data from 40 years ago! Go you!
Wonder why you are not mentioning the Voting Rights Act.
I'll address it. You could argue that civil rights is returning as a issue, and is now aligned with the left-right axis.
But its very early in the game and you guys have the timing all wrong. I mean, Newt may be the scum of the earth but he did in fact defeat a segregationist dem when he entered congress. The dominant strom/helms often hides the truth that many of the gains r's made in the south knocked off opponents to civil rights.
As far as the Political Scientists I allude to, I haven't heard them address current republican efforts at disenfranchisement yet. Its very early in the game as i mentioned and you have to be careful not to cherrypick. After all, Hillary Clinton tried to disenfranchise af-ams too, but that alone is not enough to transform the Dems into the anti-civil rights.
Your verb tense is wrong.
Civil rights for African-Americans lines up very neatly along a left-right axis today.
For a brief period in the mid-20th century, that wasn't as entirely true as it is today, owing to the unusual nature of the New Deal coalition.
Of the many, many questions which your post leaves begging, the most pressing one is: huh? really?
I mean, I could just about buy that one left-right position did not map fully or completely onto one's position vis-a-vis the Civil Rights Act in the 60s. I'm struggling to think of any position on civil rights currently which doesn't just map straight onto the current L-R divisions.
If you could name some current Ds who you would view as being on the unexpected end of the civil rights axis given their D-ness, or the same for some Rs, I'd be much obliged.
1. There is only one-dimension now. Historically, there were 2.
2. The civil rights issues in the 2nd dimension were only for Af-ams. Civil rights for women, homosexuals etc does indeed map onto the left-right ideological paradigm.
1. There is only one-dimension now. Historically, there were 2.
That's nice, and true and all, but different from what you said above about _current_ polarisation in US politics.
The current polarisation (which I'm assuming is, say, the last decade or so) has very little to do with the switch of the Southern Democrats to the Republican party in the 1960s, and everything to do with the usual L-R axis.
Re: "You can't understand the current polarization of politics without a 2-dimensional view of American politics (left-right = one dimension/ civil rights for Af-ams = second one)"
If you view Southern Dem politicians of the Jim Crow era to be RWingers full stop, you cannot understand the current polarization in Congress. Why? Because then nothing would've among that group as a whole, except their views on Civil Rights.
They were extreme RWingers then, and they are now. Why all of a sudden the polarization?
That should be:
Because then nothing would've [changed] among that group as a whole, except their views on Civil Rights.
If you view Southern Dem politicians of the Jim Crow era to be RWingers full stop, you cannot understand the current polarization in Congress. Why? Because then nothing would've among that group as a whole, except their views on Civil Rights.
Two issues here:
Who says any of us are in fact doing that? Especially the part where we assume that Southern Dem politicians wouldn't have budged on any issues one iota in fifty years (this isn't true of either party)? The original claim is that there's an abiding element in the conservative mindset which favours McCarthy and his methods. Nothing you've written disproves that, at all.
Second, How big of a group are Southern Dem politicians nowadays? It's a bit of an empty set.
Once again, the current polarisation in Congress has bug-all to do with a notional second axis of alignment regarding civil rights for African-Americans in the 60s, because as you've noted yourself, the current battle-lines over civil rights tussles are precisely along party lines.
Factoid of the day:
Virginia Sen. Absalom Robertson listed above was the father of Pat Robertson, the wealthy televangelist and famous senile loon.
Another dynasty of theocrats?
Exactly. Many Republicans, including all the far right loons that now control the party, have always endorsed McCarthy and most of those who did not only disagreed about the methods, not the message.
Red baiting started long before McCarthy. It was a well-recognized strategy as early as the late nineteenth century.
McCarthy was just one of any number of red baiters during it's upswing after Mao took over China. He was the one who got the most press, but it's clear it was a strategy endorsed by Taft, the most powerful of the conservative Republicans from the 1930s to the 1950s.
Nah, she just gussied it up some, and put it in a slinky little black cocktail dress.
Gussied it up some, but not much.
I remember spending about 15 minutes at the bookstore (some years ago) debating with myself whether to buy her book defending McCarthy. Her book is a thin little polemic that doesn't appear to add anything to the historical debate. I'm sure she would have received a poor grade in Prof. Loomis' class.
It would make for more entertaining posts (sorry, EL!) if she were to attend SEK's classes.
She's always been ahead of the zeitgeist when it comes to grifting.
I wish they'd just go whole hog and embrace Father Coughlin and be done with it, so we can move on. The suspense is killing me.
They're way past Coughlin now – just waiting for a wingnut to start embracing George Lincoln Rockwell…
I think many of them already have.
not Nathan Bedford Forrest?
Not this year, at any rate.
Y'know, to be honest I didn't know much about Coughlin, aside from that he was a vile person with a radio show back in the day, so I looked him up on Wikipedia. The first paragraph actually makes him look like a decent guy — a lot of those positions I'd support nowadays. Then we hit the second paragraph, which starts, "After hinting at attacks on Jewish bankers, Coughlin began to use his radio program to issue antisemitic commentary, and later to support at least some of the policies of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini."
Oh, well then.
Actually, I don't think the modern right will ever embrace him, simply because his group was called "Social Justice", which must be anathema to them.
So "Compassionate Conservatism"…?
If you get out of the boat you can see the cover of this month's Town Hall magazine, the feature article of which is, in very large font, "The Real War on Women", subtitled "Their oppression in the Middle East must come to an end." The accompanying photo is of a white lady with blonde hair and blue eyes.
Of course.
1. She represents the Virgin Mary who was a blonde and oppressed in the M.E.
2. A picture of a woman who is (ahem) more representative of the locals would trigger heart attacks and angry letters.
You someone is really patriotic, and really concerned with American security, when they embrace someone who set out to destroy George Marshall.
Missing from her article is, of course, specific instances of McCarthy accomplishing anything other than getting himself in the newsreels.
Even if you're the kind of shithead who doesn't think the First Amendment applied to communists and that ferreting them out was a good thing, McCarthy was just a grandstanding fantasist who sabotaged his alleged cause.
Exactly. J. Edgar Hoover was actually trying to get communist agents, even if he was overly-broad in his conception of who they were, and in his methods. Joe McCarthy's primary purpose, right from the beginning, was to go after his Democratic opponents.
That the modern right celebrates McCarthy as their commie-hunter tells you what they're really about.
J. Edgar Hoover was actually trying to get communist agents, even if he was overly-broad in his conception of who they were, and in his methods.
This is too kind by half. At best, it makes Hoover look like a coward and complete incompetent if he genuinely thought many of the people he was going after were actual agents of foreign powers. And it elides the fact that he was, himself, a criminal.
it makes Hoover look like a coward and complete incompetent if he genuinely thought many of the people he was going after were actual agents of foreign powers.
It seems to be pretty-well established that he actually did think that. He thought MLK was a Moscow-directed, Bolshevik subversive.
And it elides the fact that he was, himself, a criminal.
And short, and had a bad sense of humor. The list of things my comment wasn't about is nearly endless.
Tell you what: I denounce Stalin, the broccoli mandate, and J. Edgar Hoover. Better?
Well, I would argue that your phrasing made it appear as though you were attempting to soft-pedal Hoover.
Example. This:
"J. Edgar Hoover was actually trying to get communist agents, even if he was overly-broad in his conception of who they were, and in his methods."
is something that could be said by somehow who is pretty sympathetic to Hoover. It's ambiguous. It makes it sound like you might be about to defend the man, he lived in difficult times, etc etc.
Whereas something like this:
"J. Edgar Hoover at least genuinely believed, in his fevered imaginings, that he was trying to get actual existing communist agents."
Makes the point more clear.
I dunno, this could just be me being overly sensitive. The obvious counterpoint, of course, would be "Well, Murc, you know me. Do I seem like the kind of guy who would soft-pedal Hoover?" And of course you do not, but sometimes people surprise you.
Indeed. A lot of serious anti-communist witch-hunting types hated McCarthy because he was counterproductive to the cause of Communist witch-hunting. He's probably the most indefensible American political figure of the 20th century.
"Communism is awful because it is an authoritarian ideology that snuffs out and punishes all dissent. The only way we can stop its march is to snuff out and punish all dissent."
Seems legit.
The American flag lapel pin turns slavery into freedom!
This is pretty mild, given that the neo-cons will defend Nazism when Obama says something mean about it.
Nazism may have been an ideology to which the United States was — and to which the president is — implacably opposed, but it is hardly "senseless." By the early 1930s, the Nazi party had hundreds of thousands of devoted members and repeatedly attracted a third of the votes in German elections; its political leaders campaigned on a platform comprising 25 non-senseless points, including the "unification of all Germans," a demand for "land and territory for the sustenance of our people," and an assertion that "no Jew can be a member of the race." Suffice it to say, many sensible Germans were persuaded.
If these people were puppies, they would be beyond the help of the most skilled of veterinarians.
Say what you will about the tenets of national socialism, dude…
The difference is that many conservatives genuinely do defend McCarthy, whereas claiming that they defend Nazism requires intentional misreading of their words.
Of course it does.
I think you mean "intentionally quoting what they actually wrote fairly recently in the National Review."
I know, I know, dirty pool…
I don't see how you can read the article for the purpose of comprehension and come away thinking it's a defense of Nazism. The author also makes the point that the Benghazi attacks were not senseless; do you think he's defending those? The point is that neither Benghazi nor Nazism are "senseless," literally, but come from an actual ideology, thought up by non-insane people. Look, it's a stupid response to what Obama said, in a stupid and evil publication. But it's not a defense of Nazism.
Then you did not read the article.
But, your explanation is as convoluted as the author's attempt to find fault with Obama's description of Nazism, so congrats on that.
No, he's right. The author compared the people who carried out the attacks on Benghazi with the Nazis. That's supposed to be a defense of the Nazis?
I won't accuse you of not reading the article. Just not understanding it.
tt's restatement of the author's idiotic thesis is spot on.
I'm waiting for Obama to come out strongly against drinking bleach.
Cut to Glenn Beck chugging a gallon of Chlorox while yelling "You can't stop me!"
Better yet we could get Steve Stockman and Ted Cruz in one fell swoop.
Umm, look up the "Miracle Mineral Supplement" widely embraced in right-wing alt-med anti-fluoridation circles.
Beck himself does not seem to have endorsed MMS, but a number of his fans are already chugging bleach.
Who knew the Dead Milkmen were referring to an actual practice?
according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, chronic exposure to small doses of chlorine dioxide could cause reproductive and neurodevelopmental damage.
Skreeee! Gubbermint interference in my freedumbs! Buy a tanker of the stuff before they take it away!
I seem to remember Lord Buckley defending McCarthy long ago.
It is amusing to hear some conservatives praiser Buckley for his courageous, principled stand against the John Bircher nuts in his own party, never mentioning that Buckley stood by McCarthy until his dying day.
I lost my old recording of Lord Buckley's greatest hits, but I don't remember anything about McCarthy on it. "The Nazz" was pretty hep, though.
Dirty commie William Bennett:
The cause of anti-communism, which united millions of Americans and which gained the support of Democrats, Republicans and independents, was undermined by Sen. Joe McCarthy … McCarthy addressed a real problem: disloyal elements within the U.S. government. But his approach to this real problem was to cause untold grief to the country he claimed to love … Worst of all, McCarthy besmirched the honorable cause of anti-communism. He discredited legitimate efforts to counter Soviet subversion of American institutions.
Clearly, McCarthy was running a false flag operation.
There's actually a book / pamphlet published in 1954 entitled Joe McCarthy: Apostle of Communism that argues that he was, in fact, a conscious Communist agent whose task it was to undermine the cause of anticommunism. Anticommunist paranoia could really dream up just about any conspiracy imaginable.
Doesn't surprise me. The only explanation there's ever been for conservative ineptitude is liberal conspiracy.
In so many words, that's the plot behind The Manchurian Candidate, which is why the original is so much better than the remake's Corporate Brainwashing angle.
McCarthy addressed a real problem: disloyal elements within the U.S. government.
Of course he did.
And why was it a real problem?
Because McCarthy addressed it, that's why.
Hey, it was perfectly reasonable to suggest that Dean Acheson and George Marshall were Communist agents. Well, that is if your mind is completely addled by drink.
What's Bennett's excuse?
Why, his excuse is that "disloyal" is a synonym for "not in complete agreement with me," naturally.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say there are spies for foreign powers infiltrating our government as we speak — or type, or whatever. Just as there have been since, oh, maybe 1790. Do I actually know of any specific spies, or have any insight into where they might be or how to find them? No. But they're there, all right. You're welcome, America.
Tailgunner Joe never found a single spy, and never did anything that was likely to find one. Nixon, odious as he was, actually investigated and found one.
Probably not. Hacking is cheaper, easier and safer.
Even if you grant that McCarthy was a swell guy who was right about everything and was martyred by the damn liberals, how do you get from there to supporting a guy who claims that, while he was a student there from 1992-95, the vast majority of Harvard law professors were advocating the overthrow of the U.S. government? Seriously?

Steven Hair
Steven enlisted 6 January 1863 as a Private, Co. E, 63rd. Georgia Infantry, engaged Union forces in the battles of: Atlanta, Chickmauga, Vicksburg, Franklin Tn & Nashville, TN. Wounded in battle, recovery in Confederate hospital in Columbus, GA., discharged from Confederate Army & returned to Marion Co., GA. because of a disablilty.
63rd Regiment, Georgia Infantry
63rd Infantry Regiment was organized at Savannah, Georgia, in December, 1862, using the 13th Georgia Infantry Battalion as its nucleus. With more than 1,100 officers and men, the unit was assigned to the Departments of South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida. It served as infantry and heavy artillery at Thunderbolt and Rosedew Island, and Companies B and K were engaged at Battery Wagner near Charleston. Later the regiment was placed in General Mercer's and J.A. Smith's Brigade, Army of Tennessee. Now serving as infantry, it participated in the Atlanta Campaign, July 20 to September 1, this unit reported 10 killed, 61 wounded, and 39 missing and in December, 1864, totalled 143 effectives. Very few surrendered on April 26, 1865. The field officers were Colonel George A. Gordon, Lieutenant Colonel George R. Black, and Majors Joseph V.H. Allen and John R. Giles.
Steve & Dicie moved to Texas in 1871, settling in San Augustine Co., Tx and in Nov. of 1872, their son S.R.A. Hair was born. Steven and Dicie moved to Erath Co. Tx near Dublin where Steven purchased land in Greens Creek Community.
He bought a farm house which was in the family for over 100 years.

Are you ready to claw back the web from social media widgets?
Facebook didn't quite break the internet last week, but it had a pretty good crack at it. Many pages sporting Facebook widgets were diverting to a Facebook error page, throwing a major spanner in the works for many online publishers including this one. The problem was rectified soon enough, but it highlighted exactly how deeply ingrained Facebook and other social media widgets have become in the wider web.
These days it's pretty hard to find a high-traffic, content-heavy site which isn't plastered with social media buttons and widgets -- trying to use the likes of Facebook, Twitter and others to drum up traffic. They're even on this very page, lurking at the top just below my byline and begging you to share this page with your social networks.
Unfortunately social media buttons and widgets can be resource and bandwidth hogs which are notorious for slowing down page load times. We all pay the price, even if we don't use Facebook. If your old computer is groaning under the load of browsing the web then social media widgets probably bear some of the responsibility. Flash deserves its share of the blame as well. Some websites freeze up until all the social widgets have finished loading, which is incredibly frustrating. In Fairfax's defence, the social media buttons aren't too taxing and at least you could start reading this article while the Facebook button was still loading.
Considering how intrusive social media can be, it's little wonder that a number of browser plugins have sprung up designed to block social media widgets and lighten the load on your browser. It might seem like a drastic measure, but it's reminiscent of the days when rampant pop-ups threatened to render the web unusable until pop-up blockers became commonplace and are now built into browsers. Flash seems destined to go the same way.
You'll find several Facebook widget blockers around, but the aptly named Antisocial plugin for Chrome and Firefox goes one step further by blocking a wide range of social media widgets. If you're after even more flexibility and granular control then check out ScriptSafe, which can block social media widgets but also disable a wide range of scripts which have a tendency to slow down or even crash your browser. It takes a little while to tweak the settings and create exceptions for the few scripts you really need, but it's amazing how much of a difference ScriptSafe can make if your browser has become sluggish and unstable of late.

Shareholders have supported Westpac chief executive Gail Kelly's $9.6 million pay packet, which the bank admits is a very large amount of money.
Mrs Kelly is the second-highest-paid bank boss in Australia, behind ANZ chief executive Mike Smith, who earned $9.7 million in the 2011/12 fiscal year.
Shareholders voted overwhelmingly in favour of Westpac's executive remuneration for 2011/12 at the bank's annual general meeting on Thursday.
Just over 88 per cent of votes received by proxy ahead of the meeting were in favour of the pay policy, and about eight per cent of votes went against.
Only one shareholder spoke against Mrs Kelly's remuneration at the meeting, describing it as excessive.
But chairman Lindsay Maxsted said the chief executive's pay was fair, and in line with the bank's competitors.
"The fact is they are big numbers but Westpac is a very big and complex business," he told the meeting.
He also indicated pay for Westpac executives and managers would fall as incumbents are replaced.
"We are all very conscious about the current levels of remuneration, and I think you will see within Westpac as you have seen in other organisations that as roles turn over then there may well be a lowering of the expectation of what the remuneration should be," Mr Maxsted said.

New Fall 2011 Player Registration Now Open
Pull date:
Wed, 01/05/2011
Take advantage of our Early Bird discount rate, $110 per player, now through January 5.
On January 6, the player registration pre-season discount fee will increase to $150.
We are excited to introduce our new customized Player Registration & League Management program, InLeague.
We used the program this past Fall for game & referee scheduling and are now including player registration and other league management features. We believe this will help simplify the registration process for our parents, as well as provide our administrative volunteers better support for managing the Region.
As such, If you registered as a coach of two teams or as a referee for Fall 2010, you already have a record in the inLeague system and should sign-in as Returning User. Everyone else is a New User.
Go to the Registration tab and select Fall 2011 Player Registration.
There we will point out important differences between the old system and this new one to help you with your registration.
We have also included a list of information you should gather prior to registering and what you need to do after registration.
In an effort to be in compliance with AYSO National policies, we will be requiring all U6 & U8 players to submit proof of age prior to being assigned to a team. For your convenience, this documentation can be e-mailed. More info on the Fall 2011 Registration page.
Go register your player(s) right now while the fees are at their lowest!

Excited children watched in awe as The Voice star Christina Marie gave a show-stopping performance at their school.
The singer sang a variety of songs at Orion Primary School yesterday morning before heading to Goldbeaters Primary School in Thirleby Road, Edgware, for a second performance.
As well as putting on a show, the singer also did a question and answer session with the children as part of their schools' Go-Fest Festival.
This year's month-long festival theme is I am Somebody and focuses on education, participation and celebrating.

You exercise your body to stay physically in shape, so why shouldn't you exercise your brain to stay mentally fit? With these daily exercises you will learn how to flex your mind, improve your creativity and boost your memory. As with any exercise, repetition is necessary for you to see improvement, so pick your favorite exercises from our daily suggestions and repeat them as desired. Try to do some mentalrobics every single day!
One of the most successful ways of achieving lucid dreaming is to keep a dream journal and look for dreamsigns. A dreamsign is something recognizable to the dream world that can trigger you to become aware that you are dreaming.
A dreamsign can be something that occurs frequently in your dreams. By recording and analyzing your dreams, you will be able to identify recurring objects and themes. For example, you may find that your dreams frequently contain a bicycle. With this knowledge, you can begin to question your state whenever you see one of your dreamsigns. Anytime you see a bicycle you should stop and ask yourself, "Am I dreaming?" Asking this question while dreaming is usually enough to make you become lucid. If you develop this habit while awake, then it is likely to carry over into the dream state.
A dreamsign does not need to be something that occurs frequently in your dreams. Dreamsigns can also be things that are highly unusual. For example, having dinner with a celebrity, or having your hair suddenly turn blue. Anything that is unusual should make you stop and think about whether you are dreaming. With practice you will become adept at identifying dreamsigns while dreaming, and using them to question your state and become lucid.

Feeling tired is common if you have HIV, especially if you have had
the virus for many years. Being severely tired can affect your ability to work,
take care of yourself, and enjoy your life.
There can be many reasons why you are tired. It is important that you
and your doctor try to find the cause. Many of the things that
cause fatigue can be treated, and you may feel better.
Your fatigue may be caused by one or more of the following:
Your doctor may want to do some tests to find why you
are so tired. You may have one or more of the following:
Based on your symptoms and test results, you and your doctor can
make a plan for treatment. You may need a change in your medicines. If you are
anemic or have low hormone levels, your doctor can treat those
Exercise may boost your strength and give you more energy. If you
haven't been active at all, talk with your doctor about starting a walking or
weight-lifting program. Or find another activity that you like to do. Regular
exercise relieves stress. It also keeps your heart, lungs, and muscles strong
and helps you feel less tired. It also may help your immune system work
Make sure you are getting enough sleep. If you have trouble
sleeping, talk with your doctor.
If you are still tired after making changes, you may want to
"budget" your energy. Limit some activities to save up energy for those that
are important to you.
Avoid illegal drugs, which may cause fatigue or keep you from

"Rash guards," also called "rash vests" and "rashies," may not be that well known to the general public, but they have been used by water sports jocks for years. Made of spandex and nylon or polyester, the synthetic material resembles a wet suit, but instead of keeping the wearer warm, it helps cool them off.…

René Préval,
Haitian politician, was declared the winner of February presidential elections after protracted negotiations between Haiti's Provisional Electoral Council, Préval's Lespwa party, and the interim government. Préval, a former prime minister and Aristide protegé, was considered the favorite in the race, but he failed to win an outright majority. When the election count indicated that Préval's lead over the other candidate was dropping and that he would not win an outright majority, Préval contested the election and charged that "massive fraud and gross errors had stained the process." The deal gave Préval, very popular among Haiti's poor, more than 50% of the vote, enough to eliminate the need for a runoff election.

• troglodyte •
Pronunciation: trahg-lê-dait • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun
Meaning: 1. A person who lives in a cave or building carved into a hillside. 2. A pongid (gorilla, orangutan, or chimpanzee). 3. A reclusive, anachronistic person who resists change.
Notes: This curious word has a limited immediate family, only an adjective troglodytic. The first constituent, troglo-, may be combined with other Greek words to create new words like troglophile "a cave-lover or cave-dwelling animal". And, if troglophile, why not troglophobe "someone who fears caves"? Looks OK to me.
In Play: You probably never thought of chimpanzees as troglodytes, yet their scientific name is pan troglodytes, perhaps from the days when we thought they lived in caves. But this word is used most widely in the sense of an anachronistic recluse: "Nothing brings the troglodytes out of the woodwork like the smell of change." I suppose your attitude toward change will determine whether you identify with the troglodytes or the change-makers.
Word History: Let us see if we can dig out the origin of this word. It was kidnapped pretty much as is from Greek troglodytes, which referred to animals that live in holes, such as mice, foxes, and snakes. Later on it was applied to cavemen. In Greek the word was a compound from trogle "gnawed hole" (from trogein "to gnaw") + dytes "one who enters". ("Cave" in Greek was spelunx, from which we derive spelunker.) But troglodytes to the Greeks were also Caucasian or Middle Eastern peoples who carved their homes in rocks or lived in decorated caves. Aristotle referred to troglodytes as "midgets" and thought that they fought wars against cranes (the birds).

The Crap We Missed – Tuesday 2.19.13
Welcome to Tuesday's The Crap We Missed which took 3 days to compile thanks to a surprise quasi day off and an unsurprising amount of laziness on my behalf. What usually happens in this situation is I have an overabundance of ridiculous shit to slog through to bring you the randomest of titties and deathbloatedest(?) of faces and this gallery is no exception. So, I'm going to step out of the way and let you enjoy comment-worthy gold like this random woman and Cameron Diaz sharing how A-Rod preferred them to urinate, as well as proof that any man, even Cash Warren, will do anything to land a three-way, ditto goes for Jaime Foxx, and finally, Cirque du Soleil landing its own drag show parody.

A9 TV; 12 January 2012
(Mr. Adnan Oktar's interpretation of the president of Kyrgyzstan's words in the Turkish Parliament that "We must build a strong Turkish Union.")
Most excellent. My congratulations. Masha'Allah. On words we have not heard for a long time. Superb. I would ask our excellent hodja to use these words everywhere. It is vital for him to employ them everywhere. Look, we hear them once in a blue moon. But why should we hear them only once in a blue moon? Let us hear them often. And everywhere, insha'Allah. Because the Turkish nation is fragmented. In Turkestan and Azerbaijan and here and there. That has never been seen before. They must unite together as soon as possible.
We speak the same language. We have the same language and religion. We have the same traditions and customs and everything. Everything. But they ask to see our passports. Is that acceptable? We should not need passports to enter the Turkic states. Neither passports nor visas. An identity card at most is all we should need. We should just be able to walk through. No questions about, "And where are you going?" We should be able to walk straight through. Do we have to tell anyone why we are going from Ankara to Istanbul? We just go. This should be exactly the same. Under a single law or regulation. It is just a 5-minute business. Because I fail to understand the mentality. Everything about us is the same. Where would be the logic if we needed a passport to go to Konya? It is exactly the same thing. There is no point in prolonging the issue. It must be sorted out at once. Everyone must talk about it. Look, the hodja spoke once and everything happened. People must keep talking about it. Because it is not being brought up. But if we keep bringing it up we can get results very quickly. Turkish-Union must be established as fast as lightning, with no loss of time, insha'Allah.
The most urgent thing at the moment is the unification of the Turkish world, the Islamic world. We can leave the details till later. People are trying to start with the detail and move on up from there. But if you start from the top, the issue resolves itself right away. Then it is easy to move on to the detail. The details would take only a couple of hours. You set up Islamic Union and leave the Islamic law to me. There is no problem. But my brothers are avoiding Islamic Union, are reluctant to see it. They occupy themselves with a few specific matters. That is no good. Unite the Turkish world so we can have a fine, powerful Turkish nation. We are strong, but that will increase our strength. Unite the Islamic world. Let us build Turkish-Islamic Union. Bring the islamic scholars together and do what they say. The Sunni, Shiite and Wahhabi ulema; agree on a common approach. Everyone will do what is right. Our nation already does what is right. They live by the faith very well, to perfection.2012-02-19 18:19:54

Jessica Biel: The Real Deal
Lady Gaga
In May 2010, the Mirror reported that Lady Gaga spent £3,000 on electromagnetic field sweepers and other equipment to remove evil spirits and "bad energy" before her Monster's Ball concert in London. "Her aide said the gear had to be robust as they were—taking it on the road," the owner of the ghost-busting gear told the paper, "so they must be doing this everywhere Lady Gaga is performing." Several months later, Gaga still felt spooked and held a séance to scare away the ghost, whose name is reportedly Ryan. As a source from her tour explained: "She's pretty terrified by this spirit, but more than anything he's annoying her as he won't leave her alone. He hasn't been doing anything too violent or scary, but she's freaked out by his presence."
Cynthia Rowley
In an episode of Celebrity Ghost Stories, designer Cynthia Rowley recalled a terrifying encounter with a spirit after moving into "the perfect, idyllic country house" in Greenwich, Connecticut. The chic spook always wore a gray head scarf so Rowley couldn't quite see her face. Then one Christmas, after Rowley hung a giant wreath above her fireplace, her husband warned her not to light the candles on the mantel. "I don't know what came over me," Rowley said, recounting how she lit the candles right before a holiday party. "Something made me do it." The second she struck the match, the flame jumped to the wreath and the room caught fire. Rowley escaped the flames, but when the firefighters arrived, they looked a little spooked. "You know who used to own the house?" one fireman asked Rowley. "The woman that built the house...was the heiress to the Diamond Match fortune...who was badly burned and disfigured in a fire in her father's match factory as a teenager." The haunted mansion is currently for sale with an asking price of $39 million.

Topic: I'm missing Ed terribly
This is my first post since February. We lost Ed on June 12th-12 weeks ago tomorrow. He fought so hard and never gave up. He was still trying to take chemo to fight this terrible cancer and never gave in to calling in hospice. He took a sudden turn on Memorial Day weekend and we finally called in hospice on June 8th. He passed away in my arms, at our home. I love him with all my heart. We were married 27 years, divorced in 2009 for a little over a year when we got back together in 2010. He was diagnosed in June 2011. He was my love since I was 20 and I will be 51 this month. I am so lost without him. I can't imagine being with anyone else. I was with the same man for 31 years. Our first grandchild was born in July. Ed missed it by 6 weeks. Our youngest child is getting married in October. Ed promised he would be here to walk her down the aisle. I know he will be there. He was so handsome and so young-only 53. I will be totally alone soon. I miss him so badly. Last night at about 1:00, I was watching a movie and a significant part came on that made me think of him. My cellphone lit up on my night stand. I stared thinking a text message would come through or a call, but nothing. I think it was him. I would love to hold him one more time and stroke his face, just one more time. Being a caregiver is hard, but he tried to make it easier on me. I would do it all again and again, if I just had the chance. I am doing "okay", but the pain of missing him is truly physical. I feel like someone punches me in the gut from time to time. I really know what a broken heart feels like now.
