As the counterculture mantle was about to be passed from the Beat Generation of the 1950's to the Dylan inspired rebels of the 60's, Erica Abeel, a vibrant, young dancer, was in the middle of it all, rooming with Yoko Ono, haunting the cafes of Greenwich Village with the Beat poets.
Abeel was already dancing professionally when she headed for Sarah Lawrence College in leafy Bronxville, a thirty minute train ride just north of New York City. "I was a dancer before Sarah Lawrence, but that's why I went there: you could actually major in Dance, dance all you liked," she explained. Abeel was trained by both the Martha Graham School and the School of American Ballet.
At Sarah Lawrence, Abeel fell in with a group of women with artistic sensibilities including the Japanese avant-garde artist, Yoko Ono, who would become her roommate in Manhattan after college. "We'd often go into the city to hang out in the Village at cafes like the Figaro and San Remo Bar, which was then a Beat hangout. Gregory Corso would peddle poems at the San Remo in exchange for a plate of pasta," remembered Abeel.
"My crowd also knew people involved in starting up Off Broadway theater so we'd go see productions, say, of The Balcony by Jean Genet, and a whole raft of Beckett plays, like Krapp's Last Tape at the Provincetown Playhouse. We listened a lot to Johnny Ray, then Elvis, and Erroll Garner on piano — but we were awfully arty and loved Classical. And our Ivy friends played in the Harvard student orchestra. We loved the Baroque: Vivaldi, Bach, and Purcell's "Come ye sons of Art," Abeel recalled.
Yearning to live in Paris, Abeel gave up pursuing a Dance career for the expatriate dream in the late 1950's. "To live in Paris was the big dream of the 50's generation, at least at Sarah Lawrence and the Ivies. The arty types, that is," Abeel explained.
In Paris, Abeel once again fell in with the Beats, notably Allen Ginsberg. "The Montparnasse cafes were not as popular with the Beat crowd as Deux Magots and the ones along Boulevard St. Germain which were closer to the Beat Hotel on Rue Git le Coeur. The Cafe St. Michel was a big Beat hangout, right around the corner from the Hotel. The Rue Mouffetard had already, even in late 50's, become a tourist trap," Abeel said.
It all sounds wonderfully romantic but of course great cities have their dark side. The beatniks who pushed for a more evolved consciousness beyond conforming to society's norms were not so enlightened in their relationships with women, according to Abeel. "I hung out with the Beats, but they generally treated women despicably," she said.
Abeel arrived in Paris shortly after the Hungarian Revolution. "Many Hungarians were settling in to the city. And there were a few Fulbright students. Men gave the ex-pat life a shot — they were in Paris working at dubbing movies into English," Abeel recalled.
For the few American women who actually chased the dream, living in Paris as an ex-pat was difficult. Abeel survived in Paris by beginning her turn toward writing and teaching.
"To be a young woman in Paris at that time was to be extremely vulnerable and alone. And resourceful. You could take 'Civilization' courses at the Sorbonne, but no one cared if you attended or not; it was impersonal. I essentially taught myself French and supported myself partly by babysitting and tutoring French students in English," Abeel said.
Surviving the squalor of affordable housing in Paris was perhaps the most difficult task. "It was impossible to find a decent place to live with reliable heat and bathing facilities. We used public baths in Montparnasse, we all had flea bites, chronic colds, and existed on Couscous," she said.
After Abeel returned to New York, she spent much of her life as a teacher at the City University of New York and is currently a writer for the Huffington Post. Her recently published novel, Wild Girls, brings to life her extraordinary tales of the lives of young artists in Paris and New York, and of her friends like Yoko and Ginsberg, and the intrigues of their relationships with men and women.

Failed ID, MT resort owners want to join lawsuit
BOISE — Two principals at failed western resorts are trying to recoup money they lost when their developments imploded by joining a lawsuit against Credit Suisse Group, the Associated Press reported.
Alfredo Miguel of Tamarack Resort in Idaho and Tim Blixseth of Montana's Yellowstone Club asked a federal judge for permission to join plaintiffs in a 2010 lawsuit contending the Zurich-based bank used a predatory lending scheme to defraud them.
Miguel and Blixseth contend "shoddy, deceitful, misleading and fraudulent appraisals" led to bloated loans that were doomed to fail, costing innocent borrowers and others dearly.
Meanwhile, they say Credit Suisse protected itself by syndicating the loans.
Miguel also alleges Credit Suisse and a loan syndicate member tried to shake him down for $1.2 million in exchange for releasing him from a personal guarantee for the loan.

Discussion in 'Former Pro Player Talk' started by pc1, Oct 22, 2010.
there's another thread for that. go there.
Yes, generally speaking that seems to be true. Often tennis players (and almost anyone for that matter including the historians of the game) are in awe of the player of the moment. The image of the present player's greatness sticks in the tennis players mind. It's true of any time in his time, whether it is Tilden, Budge, Kramer, Vines, Gonzalez, Hoad, Laver, Connors, Borg, McEnroe, Sampras or Federer. If Nadal is number one for a few years it will be true of him.
With anything in history you have to wait a few years for things to sort themselves out. I'm sure a lot of people in 1984 would have taken it as a "given" that John McEnroe was the best ever. Just a few years later and people realized that while John McEnroe was great, he probably didn't have the accomplishments to be a GOAT candidate.
I just realized I didn't do one for the men. For them its tougher for me as I grew up watching womens Tennis as my mom was big into Graf, since I was born in 1987 it was always womens tennis on TV, and tapes of older female matches from my aunt. I got into mens tennis myself thanks to Agassi but don't know the history near as much. But if I were to make a list for the men it would be something like this
1. Laver
2. Federer
3. Borg
4. Gonzalez
5. Sampras
6-10: I am not really sure, I'd probably have names like Tilden, Rosewall possibly, maybe Budge, Lendl, then I am not sure.
Its hard as I am still learning a lot about these guys. I grew up with womens tennis, then moved myself into mens tennis as well. But thats a tenative one for me.
They always do! I've seen it, over, and over, and over! It's amusing, if not tiring, to see it continue apace! In my time, it was Laver, then Nastase, then Connors, then Borg, then McEnroe, then Connors again, then Lendl, then Sampras, then Federer. They're all great. And I can't say with certainty that Federer isn't better than Laver was. They're both in my top 5. But, I've been through enough eras, and seen even all of the top players over the past 40 years, to know that you can't discount the players of the past if you haven't seen them play. My eyes were opened when I saw Budge play at the age of 59. Yet, the strongest, most intransigent, opinions always seem to come from those with the least amount of knowledge and experience.
My top 5 exactly. They're all worthy of consideration for all time greatness. But, I put Sampras above Borg and Gonzalez.
It's all very reasonable what you wrote. The thing we always have to be careful about is that many of us have a tendency to see the current greats and because they are so memorable in our minds we may tend to overrate them. It's true of any great from before Tilden to the greats of today.
For example if you asked someone what Federer's winning percentage lifetime would be I would think most would think it is higher than his current percentage of 80.8%. A player like Jimmy Connors for example who had his decline phase has a higher winning percentage lifetime. Now I'm not saying Connors is better than Federer but these are points we have to consider. We cannot just believe what we perceive but also the reality.
The problem with ranking players based on majors is that it wasn't until recently that all the top players tended play all the majors. Greats like Tilden, Rosewall, Laver, Budge, Kramer, Gonzalez didn't get to play the classic majors and even guys like Borg, Connors and McEnroe didn't put as much emphasis on playing all the majors every year.
That's why I like to say we have to wait until the player's career is over until we can fully rank them with some perspective.
Didn't Ted Tinling pick Steffi Graf? He had Steffi Graf winning his fictional tournament with all the great players past and present. Indeed, not wishing to have his beloved Lenglen lose to Graf in the final, didn't he arrange for her to lose in the semi-final to Navratilova? Graf beat Navratilova in the final.
BJK picked Steffi Graf.
Martina Navratilova picked Steffi Graf
Tracy Austin picked Steffi Graf.
Virginia Wade picked Steffi Graf
Associated Press picked Steffi Graf.
Didn't realize Tinling changed his mind and picked Graf.
I wonder if Navratilova, if push comes to shove wouldn't pick herself as number one.
Yes, Tinling had Graf winning such alltime tournaments around 1995 (i think in Tennis Week or World Tennis). Tinling thought that a woman couldn't cover the whole court, playing a serve and volley game. He thought that powerful baseliners like Graf, Connolly or Seles would eventually beat women serve and volleyers like Martina.
This was true at the time, but I believe that Sampras has since qualified his estimation of Fed and indicated that he is bothered by the head-to-head, and now thinks Nadal is better.
Bruce Jenkins top 20 of the Open Era
20. Patrick Rafter. I make him a sentimental pick (over Stan Smith, among others) because he was such a classy, thrilling purveyor of serve-and-volley tennis. He had the misfortune of losing two historic Wimbledon finals: to Sampras (who broke Roy Emerson's career record for major titles that day) and to Goran Ivanisevic (on the epic "People's Monday" when the chanting, blue-collar crowd more resembled a soccer match). But he won back-to-back U.S. Opens in the Sampras era, a spectacular accomplishment.
19. Lleyon Hewitt. I don't much care for the man, to be blunt, but he was (still is, to a degree) a beacon of will power and desire, with a No. 1 ranking and championships at Wimbledon and U.S. Open.
18. Jim Courier. You'd want him on every U.S. Davis Cup team until the end of time, a battler who won two French titles and two at the Australian.
17. Arthur Ashe. This where the algorithms and statistical scribblings go right out the window. Ashe brought social enlightenment to tennis. His 1975 Wimbledon victory (over Connors) was a landmark in the game's history. He also won the U.S. Open (1968) and the Australian (1970).
16. Guillermo Vilas. Dynamic player, symbol of the free-spirited element during the Great Tennis Boom, winner of the French, U.S. and Australian (twice) titles.
15. Ken Rosewall. His prime years came before the Open Era, but you can't discount his titles at the 1968 French, the 1970 U.S. Open and the 1971-72 Australian. He played the U.S. all the way through 1977, and there must be acknowledgement of that fluid, textbook backhand.
14. Ilie Nastase. I enjoyed seeing Nastase as high as ninth on Radicchi's list, because he had as much pure talent as anyone and won 57 career titles. Fell a bit short at the majors -- one U.S., one French -- but he performed an unforgettable brand of magic between repulsive fits of petulance.
13. Stefan Edberg. Supremely accomplished and unquestioned master of the volley. Had the distinction of winning twice at both Wimbledon and the U.S. Open. Had an impact only once (the 1989 final) at the French.
12. John Newcombe. Why is this man so easily dismissed? He had panache, all-court ability and the classic man's-man qualities that characterized so many Australian greats of his day. He was never a factor at the French, but he won two Wimbledons, two Australian Opens and one U.S. Open (1973) after '68.
11. Boris Becker. Statistics don't measure the true impact of his style and personality on the game. Few players had more adoring fans around the world, and he cashed in with three Wimbledon titles and another at the U.S. Unlike many of the great serve-and-volleyers, he had some pretty fine moments at the French, reaching the semifinals three times.
10. Mats Wilander. Few athletes in any sport have been so underrated historically. You want clay? Three titles at the French. Hardcourts? Three Australian titles and another at the U.S. (1988). He never got past the quarterfinals of Wimbledon, but he carved out a Hall of Fame career on guile, intelligence and a quietly brazen confidence.
9. Ivan Lendl. Strange career, in retrospect. He absolutely owned Jimmy Connors, but Wimbledon owned him. While a number of foreign players (Borg at the forefront) were confounded by the madness of the U.S. Open, he won it three straight times (1985-87) and cashed in three more majors at the French. American fans didn't care much for his style, but he had a fabulous career.
8. Andre Agassi. He was a one-man tennis revolution, breaking new ground in service returns, crushing the ball off both wings, hand-eye coordination and the ability to hold position inside the baseline. One of only seven men (all-time) to win each of the majors, a monumental accomplishment.
7. Jimmy Connors. Might have pulled off the Grand Slam in '74, his greatest year (99-4) if he hadn't been banned from the French Open because of his association with the competing World Team Tennis. And it's a shame that he missed nine French Opens over the course of his career, because he could perform on clay. But he won five U.S. Opens between 1974 and '83, gave new meaning to on-court aggression and was still a pulsating, crowd-pleasing presence in the early 90s.
6. John McEnroe. Falls short on longevity, but set lofty standards between 1979 and '84, when he won four U.S. Opens, three Wimbledons and held the edge over Connors and Borg. Still agonizes over losing the '84 French final to Lendl (7-5 in the fifth). Inadvertently popularized the game by being an irrevent, incorrigible genius, and perhaps the greatest doubles player of all time.
5. Bjorn Borg. There's a lot to say about Borg, who had so much to do with the evolution of the two-handed backhand, but this is all you need to know: He pulled off the French-Wimbledon double, considered a nearly impossible task among today's players, three years in a row (1978-80). That's pure virtuosity.
4. Rafael Nadal. The beauty of Nadal, assuming he can keep his body from falling apart, is that there's so much left. At the age of 24, he already owns nine majors. For kids wanting to know about tenacity and desire, he's right there with Connors among the greatest role models in history. Come to think of it: Since we're playing the fantasy game, who wouldn't want to see a match between those two, each in his prime, on Centre Court or Arthur Ashe Stadium?
3. Rod Laver. I'd rank him higher, perhaps even No. 1, if we were considering the entirety of tennis history. He played the majors only sporadically in the 1970s, but he pulled off the Grand Slam in '69, after achieving it as an amateur in 1962. To see him play, as I did throughout my school years, was to witness a pocket-sized force of nature, the very definition of greatness in every respect.
2. Pete Sampras. Best remembered as the man whose 14 major titles set the historical standard (until Federer came along), and nobody ever hit more clutch shots at Wimbledon or the U.S. Open. Would probably be everyone's No. 1 if he'd won the French (he reached the '96 semis but didn't clear the second round in his last five attempts). And never forget this: For six straight years (1993-98, he finished the year ranked No. 1, breaking Connors' record. That took a brand of commitment and physical punishment few were willing to consider.
1. Roger Federer. He's lost a bit of luster now, but so did Willie Mays, Johnny Unitas and Oscar Robertson. Think back to the 2004-09 period, when he won 14 majors and had the all-time greats -- Laver, McEnroe, Jack Kramer, so many others -- effusive in their praise, agreeing we'd never seen anything quite like this man before. Such will be the essence of his legacy.
Many errors from Jenkins when speaking of Wilander pointing out he won 4 majors on Hard.
Jenkins rates guys based on them being role models? Anyone else but me bored by lists based on muddled criteria of evaluation?
Maybe Cyborg. But indeed, memory and legacy are factors, that one cannot dismiss. Famous artists knew that. So Michelangelo wrote his own account of his genius and gave it to his greatest follower, Vasari, who transformed him into a demi-god. In pure technical terms, Budge or Vines were probably better tennis players than Tilden. But Tilden - despite or because of all the controversies - outshined them on the long run, leaving the biggest mark ever in tennis history. Mac is still in all minds, because he is everywhere to see, as commentator and voice of tennis. On the other side: Borg was a bit like Greta Garbo, he left for good and created some myth of absence.
That's a lot of vague speak here.
If one wishes to construct a list based on player popularity and tall tales then one is welcome to do so as long as it is stated explicitly in one's criteria.
And that's generally a lazy and pretentious way to think on the author's part. It's as if seriously believing that one can simply grasp a common unconscious and capture it in one list.
Okay, maybe Agassi was a bigger 'superstar' than Lendl (he sure as hell wasn't a better player). By the same logic, Sampras was no superstar and should be lower on the list than Borg. Maybe even lower than Nastase.
Again, no consistency, no thought put into the criteria by the author. A lot of empty aphorisms. Waste of time.
Lendl is indeed so often the step-child in those rankings, especially when done by US-experts. By sheer numbers, the amount of his work and wins, considering the strong opposition he faced, it can be argued, that he was the top Nr. 1 man in open era. Mac and even Borg had problems, when they actually had become Nr. 1. They didn't deal too well with motivation and the rigors of defending this position. Nobody did defend his Nr. 1 so proudly and constantly, day in and day out. Sampras and Federer were way more selective, in their intention to peak for the majors.
I recall a match of the older Lendl in the early 90s, still ranking very highly. It was played in a minor tournament at Munich, on a damp and dark late afternoon, before only some 50 wet and cold onlookers, on an awfully slow, rain drained clay court, against an unknown, but oh so dangerous South-American grinder. Lendl lost the long first set, and i think any other pro champion, with the exception of Connors, would have packed in, and had gone to a better place like Monte Carlo or a Bavarian beergarden. But not Lendl. He dug deep, and began to grind out the grinder. And at the end, before a handful of onlookers, he won and showed a beatific smile, as if he had won the USO. That was champions style.
That would explain federer winning over 10 titles a year from 04-06, making the finals of almost every tournament he entered, remaining number 1 for 237 weeks and only losing this position after his form had dropped off noticeably - i.e. not due to lack of motivation.
err what ???????
federer was
74-6 in 2004
81-4 in 2005
92-5 in 2006
69-8 in 2007
federer did play better in the majors, but he dominated the other events as well. Was # 1 for 237 weeks straight..
Funny how some of you so called 'historians' can't get a fact regarding recent history right
Has there not been a chorus of Fedfanatics in the last 3-4 years, that Federer doesn't focus on Mickey-Mouse-tournaments anymore, and that only majors count? Maybe that chorus was in a parallel world.
Now, Lendl won in his years at the top from 1979/80 to 1991, way over 100 tournaments, if one includes big non-official ATP tournaments like the Antwerp event, which were far more than exhibitions. In almost all of these years he played over 100 matches a year. I think he played around 1100 ATP matches, and won over 81 percent of them. I cannot think of another player in open era (besides Connors), who was equally consistent over such a period of time, with such amount of tournaments and matches.
I don't want to make extra work for you, but I think that the year in which these opinions were offered is really crucial. For instance before or after 1969 (for an obvious reason).
Can you please add the year when each of the opinions was offered?
I definitely put Lendl way ahead of Agassi. IMO they are not even close in the total history of the game (not just the Open Era).
(In an Open Era only ranking they would necessarily get squeezed closer together.)
If you consider yourself a serious analyst/historian, you should draw the majority of your conlcusions from the facts, and not be influenced by the nonsensical rhetoric of fanatical tennis groups.
Of course, you could just as easily be a member of one of those fanatical tennis groups...
Agreed. Lendl is way ahead of Agassi in terms of greatness. Agassi has the one extra major and the career slam...but really, Lendl still beats him. the magnitude of how Lendl from 1981-1991 made the finals of HALF the majors that were held during that period I think sometimes gets lost in some people minds. He may have a losing record in slam finals...but 19 of them in a 10 year period?? Not to mention 9 straight YEC finals..of which he won 5? 86 non slam titles? The man really was great and I do think he is above Agassi.
Disagree. If that's true then no way Ashe is ranked #17.
Why not?
Ashe was a great player.12 years in the top 10.Won the huge WCT Dallas plus 3 slams.He was a Davis Cup Stalwart and have a great carrer. Remember He had match points against Mcenroe at the Masters when He was 35 years old.That its pretty remarkable.Besides he reached the semifinals or better at 13 slams.
Man, what a great post. Just a jewel.
The Danzig, Hopman and Tingay lists were from the book "The Encyclopedia of Tennis" with the editors Max Robertson and Jack Kramer. The lists were for the book which was copyrighted in 1974.
One major problem I have with a lot of lists is that a lot of the experts tend to base their opinions on just what they think they see. Often it's very emotional. Some haven't done side by side comparisons when they look at various players. For example I can never understand why anyone would rank Agassi over Lendl. They won the same amount of majors at 8 but Lendl was in more finals with 19. Agassi won 60 tournaments in his career but Lendl more than doubled that with over 140! Even if we go by "official" ATP records Lendl is 34 ahead of Agassi with 94. Lendl also has a better winning percentage lifetime. Yet I think a good percentage of experts rank Agassi higher. Is it because Agassi won all four majors and Lendl only won three? Who knows?
The Collins list was probably 7 or 8 years ago but he's added Rosewall to his list since-In the Jenkins article Collins: Laver, Borg, Sampras, McEnroe, Connors, Rosewall, Lendl (Bud had Pancho Gonzalez, Bill Tilden and Don Budge behind Laver at 2-3-4 but his list was for the Open Era alone.
The Trabert list was about 20 years ago I believe.
Good post pc1.
The best american writers Drucker,Flink and Collins all rank Lendl over Agassi.
Agassi won all 4 slams which is a great achievement but Lendl had a better carrer and was a clear number 1 3 years.Agassis 1999 year was great but he lost 4 out 5 matches against Sampras including Wimbledon and the tour finals.
The lists from Drucker Flink and Collins posted in this thread are all from September 2006 when Agassi retired.
(1974) Allison Danzig-1. Tilden 2. Cochet 3.Budge 4. Lacoste 5. Kramer 6. Perry 7. Johnston 8. Laver 9. Vines 10. Gonzalez and Emerson
(1974) Harry Hopman-1. Tilden 2. Budge 3. Perry 4. Laver 5. Cochet 6. Lacoste 7. Johnston 8. HL Doherty 9. Vines 10. Gonzalez and Emerson
(1974) Lance Tingay 1. Tilden 2. Budge 3. Laver 4. Gonzalez 5. Hoad 6. Perry 7. Cochet 8. Wilding 9. HL Doherty 10. W. Renshaw.
Bud Collins picked (from my memory) Laver, Sampras, Borg, Gonzalez and Tilden I believe a few years ago.
Tony Trabert picked Laver as number one but I think Jack Kramer was up there also.
Vic Braden picks Jack Kramer as the best he had ever seen.
(early 1980s) Arthur Ashe picked Borg as best he had seen but also wrote Gonzalez and Laver were there with Borg.
Jack Kramer picked Budge, Vines as the two best with Budge as the day in and day out best but also in tier 1 was Tilden, Perry, Riggs and Gonzalez.
In the second echelon was Laver, Hoad, Rosewall, von Cramm, Schroeder, Crawford, Segura, Sedgman, Trabert, Newcombe, Ashe and Smith. He also wrote Nuskse but I think he means Nastase. He ends with Borg and Connors who since they were active were able to move to the first group.
Ellsworth Vines in his book picked the best after WW II and that was 1. Budge 2. Kramer 3. Gonzalez 4. Laver 5. Segura 6. Riggs 7. Rosewall 8. Hoad 9. Sedgman 10. Trabert. He didn't pick Borg and Connors yet since they were still active I believe.
Vines picked Tilden, Borg, Laver, Budge and Kramer in an interview a few years later in the mid 1980's. I was surprised he forgot about Gonzalez who he picked over Laver in his book but perhaps it was just a slip.
Don Budge picked Kramer, Gonzalez and Laver with Kramer number one.
Gene Mako picked Tilden, Vines, Perry, Budge, Kramer, Hoad, Borg and McEnroe
Bob Falkenburg picked Tilden, Budge, Vines, Kramer and Laver
Nastase picked Borg
Perry picked Tilden before WWII and Laver after WWII. I think he picked Tilden overall.
Paul Metzler picked Kramer
Gene Scott picked Laver
Laver picked Hoad or Rosewall as his toughest opponent depending on the interview.
Tony Trabert picked Laver
John Newcombe picked Laver
Mark Cox picked McEnroe, Borg, Connors, Laver and Rosewall
Agassi used to pick Sampras as the best he played but recently he picked Federer
Nadal picks Federer
Peter Bodo picks Laver
(2006) Drucker: Sampras, Laver, Gonzalez, Kramer, Budge, Tilden, Borg, Connors, Lendl, (tie) McEnroe-Agassi
(2006) Flink: Sampras, Laver, Kramer, Tilden, Borg, Budge, Gonzalez, Connors, McEnroe, (tie) Lendl and Agassi
(2006) Collins: Laver, Gonzalez, Tilden, Budge, Borg, Sampras, McEnroe, Connors, Rosewall, (tie) Lendl and Kramer
(1990) Maskell: Laver, Budge, Tilden, Perry, Borg, McEnroe, Cochet, Borotra, Rosewall, Connors
(2003) Paul Fein: Sampras, Tilden, Laver, Gonzalez, Borg, Kramer, Budge, Connors, Lendl, McEnroe
I consider myself a harmless amateur, who has read some books on tennis, and has seen some tennis matches in his life. To call my nice and warm posts on Lendl fanatical, is somewhat strange. But openly said, as said in 'Gone with the Wind': I don't give a dime.
I've found you to be very objective in your comments over the years. I read your comments on Lendl and as usual, you were very objective and honest. I felt you were just being very informative.
I agree with you that Lendl has been extremely underrated. The man has one of the greatest resumes in the history of tennis. He won over 140 tournaments, won tournaments on every surface and defeated many Hall of Famers.
Thanks, PC 1. Maybe we should make up a Lendl-Fanclub, with the name "The Big Teeth". Just joking.

Urban is an excellent poster. He always has very informed opinions and excellent contributions.
If he's the "fanboy" of anyone, it's only after much intensive objective research into records and stats. But then I would not call that being a fanboy, anyway.
I would replace Kuerten with Courier. He's more balance across all surfaces and has accomplished more. Guga had short career due to injury, but what can you do.
LOL. Serena > Evert, Venus > Seles?
Don't think so.
Many others could also fit, though Courier´d be an excellent option.I could also consider Kodes, Rafter,Ashe,Smith,Stich and, may be, very soon Djokovic could fit.I agree Kuerten showed most than he did, but what he showed was pretty awesome ( 3 RG and 1 Masters , may be as good on cc as Wilander or Lendl)
For the mark she left, Chris Evert is well above Seles and the Williams.By a great distance.
However, Serena is , by far, much more complete player than Seles, better or steadier than her sister and more powerful than Chris.That is why I put her as nº 4, even though not close yet to the top 3.
Of the ones you mentioned Kiki, Ashe clearly has the best record. He won the Australian, US Open, Wimbledon, WCT and according to Vainquers, he won 71 tournaments in his career. Kodes won about 20 tournaments according to Vainquers plus two French Opens. Stich won 18 tournaments plus Wimbledon.
Stan Smith won 59 tournaments plus Wimbledon, the US Open, the Year End Masters and WCT. Rafter only won 11 tournaments in his career plus two US Opens. His career, while excellent wasn't nearly as good as many players.
Kodes also won a Wimbly title and Stich, a Masters title, but I catch your idea.Between Ashe and Smith, I think Arthur was a better player but their record is about the same ( in fact, Stan beat Arthur at the WCT finals, while Arthur´s win at the AO was not that difficult, since the field was quite weak for Gran Slam standarts).
I think, just on record, LLeyton Hewitt would deserve being the last seeded player of my list, just as much as Kuerten or Courier.I never liked his tennis too much but he is one of the last real fighters and aguy that knew how to face a big match against a big player no matter where or when.I think is damn even for that 16 th positions.
¿More ideas?

Run of form continues with a 37lb 10oz common
LEWIS Porter caught another of his target fish from the Bundy's Pit syndicate in Cambridgeshire in the form of this immaculate 37lb 10oz common.
The impressive specimen, known as the Long Common, was part of a six fish catch for the Peterborough-based media manager for Fox International which also included fish of 25lb 10oz, 24lb 5oz, 22lb 2oz, 20lb and 15lb during his 48 hour session.
All of his fish came to Mainline Baits Milky Toffee pop-up hookbaits which were presented over a scattering of 2kg of the company's new Hybrid boilies.
His winning presentation consisted of a stiff-hinged rig which was tied with a 25lb Fox Rigidity boom section and 35lb Edges Coretex in a gravelly brown colour. This was cast out in conjunction with a safety clip system and a 4oz lead.
He told Angling Times: "I've had a great start to the season on Bundys and have already landed two of my target fish."

Today is Alice's 7-monthday! That means . . . in 5 months she will be one year old. I can't quite wrap my head around that one yet.
Alice (aka "Lil' Scoocher") is becoming quite mobile and can't be trusted for very long on her own. If left alone she may
a.) circulate the room, pulling items off of every shelf within reachIn some rooms she can no longer be trusted--particularly the office, which contains many cords and very fun looking toys that belong to a bird and not a baby.
b.) pull out the lamp cord so she sits in utter darkness
c.) become worryingly silent
d.) tip over her laundry basket and swim in soiled clothing
e.) eat feathers, paper, or anything else available
f.) any combination of the above
Alice loves pulling hair, scratching, gouging out eyes, and picking other people's noses. If all of these things sound agreeable to you, feel free to visit.
She's settling into somewhat of a schedule, though we still have to force her to be flexible sometimes. She usually sleeps pretty well through the night, and she normally takes two (sometimes three, depending on if her early-early nap counts) decent naps during the day. The best thing is that we can just see when she is tired, then we put her in her crib with her pacifier, and she falls asleep. (Except for right now. She's been talking to herself in her crib for 45 minutes now, but she's happy, at least!) Her favorite part of the day is still when her daddy comes home.
Alice enjoys eating. She usually has one "solid" meal per day right now. I've been experimenting with soup recipes, and last week I made a parsnip-ginger-orange soup. Ryan and I thought it was disgusting, but Alice eats it, so that's useful.
Here are some pictures.
|Spitting face
|Making evil plans while in her high chair
|CAUGHT! She scooched across the room for this reward.
|This was just a funny face we happened to catch on camera
|Gotta love that pureed cauliflower with spinach
|Deciding how she feels about parsnip-ginger-orange soup
|I'm 7 months old today! And my mom hasn't taken my monthly photo since I was 4 months . . . oops!
|We also saw lots and lots and lots of gingerbread houses and this pretty tree with decapitated Santa heads decorating it. (We thought all the Santa statues in that room should be affeared for their lives!)
|This is a pretty outdoor creche. We heard rumor that it's a replica of one that's in Rome or something like that.
|Another pretty Christmas dress with a pretty baby
|Alright, alright. You got your picture . . . I'm outta here.
|After a bath
|Diaper-changing challenges. It's often very hard to get her to stay on her back for more than one second.

Report: Retirees Happy "Just Getting By"
May 4, 2016 6:42 am
Despite economic progress, many retirees are still feeling the aftershocks of the recession—but that hasn't dampened their spirits.
"Many American retirees are still recovering from the Great Recession while managing their households with modest retirement incomes," explains Catherine Collinson, president of the Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies® (TCRS), which recently released a "State of Retirement" compendium. "The good news is that most retirees are enjoying life, but the concerning news is that many may be ill-equipped to deal with a financial shock, such as the possible need for long-term care.
"As a society, we frequently speak of the need for workers to save and prepare for retirement," Collinson continues. "Unfortunately, the conversation often ends once people stop working and retire, which is when it becomes even more critical for them to have a financial plan that can last their lifetimes."
Over one-third of retirees included in the TCRS compendium have only "somewhat" recovered from the recession—a finding reflected in the "just getting by" mentality prevalent in the report. Other financial priorities cited in the compendium include paying off a mortgage, saving for retirement and paying off credit card debt.
Retirees today are living on a modest income: a median of $32,000, according to the TCRS compendium. Social Security is the top source of retirement income, followed by savings and investments, company-funded pension plans, and 401(k)s, 403(b)s and IRAs. Most retirees began collecting Social Security benefits at 62 years old.
Still, current retirees expect a long retirement, filled with meaningful activities outside of employment. These include spending time with family and friends, pursuing hobbies, traveling, volunteering and caring for grandchildren.
Overall, the vast majority of retirees included in the compendium are "generally happy," "enjoying life," and "have a strong sense of purpose."

Pornography. Porn King Larry Flynt (above) is coming to a court near you. The US supremo of free speech, is being tried along with his brother on obscenity charges which could mean spending 24 years in prison. However, the real-life star of Hollywood film The People v Larry Flynt contends that attitudes have changed and that what he does no longer breaks the law. Flynt wants to use the case to challenge a 1973 Supreme Court decision that obscenity is defined by local community standards, which he says is out of date now that any old stuff can be downloaded via the internet.
Press freedom. The Newspaper Society is preparing to take Home Secretary Jack Straw to the European Court of Human Rights. News International executive chairman Les Hinton told the Newspaper Society's annual meeting last week that Straw's Youth Justice and Criminal Evidence Bill, which bans the naming of children involved in crime reports, will stifle press freedom and would have prevented reporting of the Dunblane tragedy.
Zany magistrates. Lord Irvine has finally managed to find one – bolstering his campaign to rid the magistracy of its stuffy, fuddy-duddy image. Harley-Davidson-riding circus clown Philip Frederick – who also juggles, performs magic and lies on a bed of nails – will be sworn in as a magistrate later this month.

Rupert took to social media to encourage friends and family to dig deep and donate some money. He regularly kept his supporters up to date with his training, and let them know how many artificial limbs or emergency wheelchairs their money could buy.
Rupert's company, HASP Training Ltd, provides travel safety awareness training for organisations sending staff overseas. In his job he has met many people (both in the UK and overseas) that have been injured by landmines and unexploded bombs. Encounters like these helped inspire Rupert both in the lead up to the race and during the event. Handicap International's work with the victims of these indiscriminate weapons particularly resonated with him.
As the event drew nearer, he started to realise the scale of the task he'd taken on. He joked,"It's going to hurt, I might have need of one of those wheelchairs too." However, Rupert's high spirits and determination saw him through. At the end of the first day, he crossed the finish line soaked to the skin by the beautiful English summer weather, but pleased the first marathon was over.
For most, that would have been enough, but Rupert still had another marathon to do the very next day! He recuperated with some hot food and a good night's rest, ready to do it all over again.
But, it was not all plain sailing. "During the last 7 miles on the way to Winchester I started thinking that my knees might torpedo my chances of finishing," Rupert says. "But a couple of Paracetamol and good talking to myself saw that off."
Rupert's motivation before, during and after the event was truly motivational, and all to make other people's lives better.
Meet Ramesh: "I'm going to win this race"
18-year-old Ramesh was trapped under rubble for 72 hours when the devastating earthquake hit Nepal in April 2015. His injuries were so bad that doctors decided both of his legs should be amputated. Our rehabilitation team supported his recovery from the start.
10 months later, Ramesh decided to challenge himself by taking part in a 3km wheelchair race in Kathmandu. He pushed himself to an impressive sixth place against 20 other racers. "Next year I'm going to win this race," he shouted as he received his finishing medal.
As Rupert raised funds as part of our Every Step Counts campaign, the money he raised was doubled by the UK government. This meant he ended up raising an incredible total of more than £3,200 for life-changing rehabilitation care provided by our teams of physiotherapists and orthopaedic technicians. In June 2016, Rupert was in the top 3% of fundraisers (out of 67626 people) on JustGiving!
We are hugely grateful for the support of Rupert and others like him, who take on hugely difficult challenges in order to help disabled people caught up in situations of poverty, exclusion, conflict and disaster. What an inspiration!

Who built 'that'?
Excuses abound for President Obama's controversial speech. I agree with John Terrell ( Sept. 6 ): "That" meant infrastructure. No arguing semantics, nor misquotes. So who built "that"?
Roads and bridges: Is there a federal department of construction? No, such infrastructure is guided by the government, built by contractors (corporations and small businesses) and paid for by all taxpayers, businesses included. The Internet as we know it would not exist if it weren't for our telecommunications infrastructure ---- fiber optic cables, satellites and cellular systems. Who built "that"? Corporations and contractors with money provided by investors, not government. Our educational system is paid for primarily from property taxes. Businesses pay property taxes too. We all built "that."
No, Obama's message was clear. It was divisive, creating the image businesses and successful people don't contribute to these benefits. "You didn't build that" ---- "we" did and you profited from it, so you owe us.
If he had said: "You didn't build that, we all built it," he would have been truthful and generated greater unity. But he is an intelligent man and speaks eloquently. He said what he meant, and it was intended to divide our citizenry and discredit businesses and successful people to his benefit.

Gullible Obama supporters need to wake up
There's a story about a Missouri farmer who hit his mule between the eyes with a two-by-four to get the mule's attention.
President Obama has been hitting us between the eyes for a few years with his radical philosophy of failure, but many fail to understand. They make excuses for his failure and offer fabricated success. Obama doesn't believe he has failed because he is in the process of accomplishing personal goals, at the expense of the country.
Will gullible supporters awaken before we reach the point of no return?

"D" or "R" ---- choose one
Recently, a news broadcaster made a disturbing observation regarding voters in elections. He said that a surprising number do not evaluate the qualifications of the candidates, but vote solely on the fact that they have a "D" or an "R" next to their name.
In a way, this manifests itself in the North County Times' Community Voices letters. Almost daily, NCT publishes (objectively) robotic/egotistical pontifications of people who vehemently object to letters, as well as editorials that do not agree with their subjective opinions. They even go as far as to demand that NCT stop publishing these and (good riddance) threaten to cancel their subscriptions.
I am certain these mind-numbed members of our society would be delighted if the First Amendment to our Constitution were repealed, and are not educated enough to know of the profound worlds of the French philosopher and author Voltaire (1694-1778), namely: "I (may) disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."

An interesting election year
I enjoy reading the different opinions in the paper; however, I do disagree with some of them, especially the political ones.
I did not vote for President Obama in 2008 because of his "spread the wealth" comment. I am not voting for him this year because of the same comment, plus his "fair share" references. I do not believe in collectivism. I believe in personal responsibility, individual effort and limited rules.
Allow me to quote C.S. Lewis: "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."
This will be an interesting election year. Do the people want big government or do they want a limited government?

Comments on '2016'?
We know that Robert Tormey and Thomas Cowan Jr. like to challenge the letters written by Republican readers. I do hope to see their comments on the movie, "2016: Obama's America."

Go see '2016' movie
To Ralph "Pete" Peters letter ( Aug. 29 ): Most of his questions about Barack Obama, Sr. are answered in the documentary "2016: Obama's America," which is showing in local theaters.
This is a must-see movie for anyone who cares about their future, and the future of their children and grandchildren. It is an informative film that is well-presented, and well-documented. It also provides answers to many other questions about the current state of our country.
I encourage everyone, irrespective of your political affiliation, to go see this movie.

Evolution is a simplifying force
North County Times readers are graced with our own "rain man," Irvin Forbing, perpetually tossing about numbers beyond his understanding. Indeed, that is his premise, that the numbers are too big ---- beyond success. Beyond success ---- that's quite a concept, a negative stance.
Well, Irvin, what if there were, as he projected, trillions of little varmints facing gazillions of choices? And they replicate every hour for a couple of billion years. The numbers certainly boggle Irvin, but he omits the most important mechanism: Every outcome was either better or worse in their environment. All are subject to the test; the winners step forward for another generation. Losers get extinction, and are not a part of those big numbers that confound Forbing.
The winnowing of suitability rapidly reduces the participation in the permutations perplexing Irvin. Eliminating every loser greatly reduces the numbers, but Irvin keeps multiplying improbabilities times impossibilities and getting confused. Evolution is a simple game played slowly over a long time.
Of course, the generational duration stretches as the life form complexity increases, but the big choices that reflected survival also brought forth the ability to keep evolving. Evolution decreases probabilities until environmental equilibrium is achieved. It's still going on today.

Real news from convention
The Tampa convention remained in "Wonderland," since facts, reality and truth were permanently banned and all the speech-givers revealed they were all members in good standing in the "Liars Club."
The most important story was never disclosed at the Tampa Convention, because it all happened in back rooms behind closed doors to the mass media, where wheelers and dealers were busily creating new ways to undermine our republic.
Ron Paul got the "go to hell!" sign from his party, just like George McGovern got from his party, and for the same reason: Both men believe that war is a barbaric and stupid endeavor.
Has anyone noticed that the word "war" has disappeared into that Orwellian world of rot, even though the U.S. government is involved in four of them?

Many organizations honoring WWII vets
Response to "Shameful how WWII has been ignored," Aug. 28 : It was wonderful to read the passion in Myrl MacKenzie's letter about the importance of honoring our World War II veterans. She will be glad to hear that there are many organizations honoring the men and women who served, they just don't get a lot of media attention.
There are Honor Flight Hubs, who raise funds to fly WWII veterans to Washington D.C. to see their memorial free of charge. Another nonprofit, "Spirit of '45," is working to establish a new national day of remembrance in honor of the WWII generation. In 2010, Congress and the Senate passed the resolution for Spirit of '45 Day, the second Sunday of every August, to coincide with Aug. 14, 1945.
Since then, there have been hundreds of events large and small, as well as taps/wreath-laying commemorations for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. She is right, we must never forget the WWII generation, and we must preserve their stories for future generations.
Linda Laurie
Fact, fiction or distortion?
Are letter writers offering fact, fiction or distortions?
On Aug. 19, distortions defined: Pat Mendenhall cites Daniel Henninger, claiming President Obama's stimulus package "went up the chimney." False. The article cited provides no such evidence. Suellen Shea claims, "'Obamacare' has already stolen $500 billion from Medicare." Then, Valerie Wanket ( Aug. 25 ) says there is a "$716 billion cut to Medicare." Politifact rated similar claims "mostly false" (www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2012/aug/15/mitt-romney/mitt-romney-said-barack-obama-first-history-rob-me/).
On Aug. 21: Maury Carpenter claims the president "has delivered a culture of corruption, while Charles Seago invents that Obama "step(s) all over the Constitution." Neither one provides a source proving Seago's charge: "hasn't backed up a single comment."
Gary Walker's fiction ( Aug. 10 ) continued Aug. 22 , with wild, unsupported assertions about the president. Lloyd Rochambeau ( Aug. 22 ) claims "Democrats have been lying to America for 60 years" ---- prove it.
Regarding Keystone, Jim Lowery ( Aug. 24 ) thinks, "President Obama decided against the pipeline." Yet the southern segment of the pipeline is under way, creating 4,000 jobs ("Canadian firm to push ahead with part of Keystone oil pipeline," Feb. 28, www.utsandiego.com).
Darrell Beck ( Aug. 26 ) invents "legend in his own mind" about the president, while Bernie Schroer ( Aug. 26 ) claims Obama is "the worst president we have had" ---- no proof provided.
Deciphering fact, fiction or distortion is not easy with these letter writers.
Robert Tormey
Do Republicans know the truth about 'Dubya'?
Well, both political conventions have ended. While both affairs were well done, the Democratic National Committee had substance and meaning, while the Republican National Committee seemed somewhat petty and not much more than a name-calling session. And who was that poor old guy talking to an empty chair? Is he a harbinger of the "empty suits" a President Romney would use to fill his cabinet? Now that's scary.
What I found interesting about the RNC, though, was what was missing. There was hardly a mention of the corrupt and failed administration of George W. Bush. Everyone knows it was then that the problems we're facing now began. "Dubya's" unnecessary war on Iraq and tax cuts for the ultra-rich are two examples of blunders that plunged us into the mess that continues to this day. How anyone could expect a mess created and perpetuated over eight long years to be cleaned up in less than four is beyond me.
But I wonder, is it possible that at their core, most Republicans are honest people ---- now hold on, anything's possible ---- and they know the truth about "Dubya," but would rather ignore him than admit it? Just wondering.

What if Jesus had been a Republican?
Jesus was reported at his home. Crowds gathered. People came, bringing a paralytic. Because of intense crowds, they removed the roof; dug through, letting down the paralytic. Jesus saw this, grew angry, and asked, "Why wreck my roof? This house is mine." The disciples became silent.
"It's bad enough that you trash my property, now you want me to heal you? Didn't you see this is a private-gated community?"
Jesus turned and said, "Take care of your own health problems; have your family help out."
"No, Lord," answered the paralytic. "There is no one. My pain is horrible. To whom else can I go?"
"Well, not me," said Jesus. "What would happen if I provided access to free health care for everyone? That would mean that people would not only get lazy and entitled, but they would take advantage of my miraculous abilities. Besides, look at me: I'm healthy and wealthy because I worked hard for my money. I learned from one of my offshore Apostles named Bain.
"I shall make a new commandment, the 11th Commandment: Thou shalt not heal the poor and sick for free, but give them a coupon so they can find other healers on their own."

Reinforcing our constitutional right to life, liberty, happiness
With regards to "WWII vet shoots, kills intruder," Sept. 5 : Thanks to Earl Jones for taking out another ... robber and in doing so, reinforcing just one of the many reasons we have the Second Amendment to protect our individual rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Job well done, sir, and thanks to him for his service to our country.

Carlin would have approved of Spy billboard
The master of wordplay, George Carlin, when told by someone to "Have a good one," would reply, "I already have a good one. I just want a longer one." That harmless response often left the person wondering what exactly George meant (sexual double-entendre?), which, in turn, pleased him greatly.
Spy sunglasses of Carlsbad has taken that same playful approach ( "Cute or crass? Sign turns heads," Sept. 6 ) by using our language to introduce their new product called the Spy Happy Lens.
On a billboard in Encinitas, the words "Happy to sit on your face," along with the Spy logo, appear for all to read and think just what the heck this innocuous ad is all about. The mind wanders in every conceivable (mostly sexual) direction.
All the pondering, chin-rubbing, quizzical looks from the public must be delighting the Spy sunglass company to no end. Sales should be phenomenal. George Carlin would have enjoyed his good long one with Happys sitting on his face.

Voters should see '2016'
There is a film showing currently, "2016: Obama's America." It is factual and gives insight in to what makes the president tick.
Everyone who plans to vote should see it.

Discrimination by numbers?
I noticed recently that the Escondido Union School District sends home a child's homework or other notifications to parents (in some cases) in English on one side and Spanish on the other.
I did some research and found out this is due to a law mandating materials be printed in Spanish because of a higher than 15 percent enrollment of Spanish speakers.
Last time I checked, discrimination based on sheer numbers was not justified. What about people speaking French, German or Tagalog? This law clearly sends the message that one group is more important than another based solely on numbers, which although practical in this context, is still wrong.
Craig Waterhouse
'Incomplete' or 'incompetent'?
When a person received a mark of "incomplete," they received a zero or failed grade. I think President Obama's teleprompter was tilted and he meant to read "incompetent."
Please, my fellow Americans, wake up before we are ruined further.

Poor management abounds at harbor
Will it really matter if the Oceanside harbor outsources? It isn't well maintained now, it won't be then.

Harbor losing its shine
Let me start out by saying that I love Oceanside. I was born here and have many fine memories of this harbor, but I must say it needs some help. This harbor brings a lot of tourists to Oceanside, but I am sad to say it is very dirty and it needs a lot of TLC.
I work in the harbor. We have thousands of tourists who come here every summer. The public bathrooms are a disgrace, only cleaned one time a day, around 5 p.m. Cigarette butts are all over the place, not to mention dog feces.
The merchants here need to know when there is a special event going on and have some parking assigned to them so they can get to work. If we can't get to work, we can't open for business; therefore, the city of Oceanside cannot collect taxes.
Get it together, Oceanside. Our harbor is a pearl that is losing its shine.
Trish Faltysek
In the November Oceanside election, Council Member Jerry Kern is running for mayor and hoping to get a 4-1 council majority. That's not just greed, but unmitigated gall. Don't allow the present majority of the council to obtain a super-majority. The present trio caters to the developers and owners of mobile-home parks, who are not residents of Oceanside.
In the June election, the trio tried to change the voting procedure that required the elected person to obtain 50 percent of the vote. Now Kern wants to control 80 percent of the council vote with a 4-1 majority. What happened to fair representation of the residents?
Please vote for Mayor Jim Wood, Esther Sanchez and Dana Corso, who are the voices of the people.

Evil met evil at convention
On Sept. 5, the nation saw Bill Clinton sell his soul to the devil at the Democratic National Convention. Evil met evil. He and Barack Obama barely speak to each other, yet Bill said glowing things about President Obama. More lies told about Obama, by one of the best liars in the United States.
Are these the people you want to lead our country for four more years? Obama hasn't done one good thing for the country, and yet you want him to lead you farther down the path to destruction.
God wasn't mentioned anywhere until Mitt Romney spoke of him. Obama thinks he created the world and not God. Romney may be a quiet man, but he is a religious man. Who cares if he doesn't drink alcohol? ...
There are two powers in the world, good and evil, and the Democratic Party chose evil. ...
Where are the jobs Obama promised? When the government supplies your needs, it isn't long before you are enslaved. Government dependency eventually becomes a dictatorship. Heaven help us.

Not happy with 'Osama is dead' retort
Vice President Joe Biden sounds disgusting with his "Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive" retort. Is this man normal?
He and President Obama will do whatever it takes to get elected. Is Joe Biden so dense that he has forgotten the Pakistani doctor who will probably die in prison for coming forward to help our country, and what about the doctor's family?
What kind of administration is this?

Be frightened if general plan update, charter propositions pass
The Escondido City Council majority is hoping that you don't notice the power grab it wants and that you simply rubber-stamp the wishes of their benefactors, the building industry.
The general plan update is, frankly, a boring subject, but it will have a profound effect on everyone living in Escondido. It was primarily designed by developers and builders, some of whom don't even live in Escondido. They want to develop this town until it looks like a stuffed sausage, bursting at the seams with traffic congestion and lack of living amenities.
And they won't pay their fair share of the cost of added sewer and water and other services that are needed when you have increased population. Since the cost of expanding won't be paid by developers, it will fall on us, the taxpayers of Escondido. If this weren't enough for the local politicians, they also propose to change how the city is governed. They want to write their own "constitution" and be exempt from the time-tested checks and balances that state law provides.
Look up the cities of Bell, Vallejo and San Bernardino and be frightened if the general plan update and the charter propositions pass.

Guard what is committed to us ---- freedom
Constitution Week, a celebration of the United States Constitution, begins Sept. 17.
This year, 2012, is the 225th anniversary of the signing of this most important document, the oldest document of self-government still active. The tradition of celebrating the Constitution was started many years ago by the Daughters of the American Revolution, and thanks to their petition to Congress, the resolution was signed into Public Law 915 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on Aug. 2, 1956.
DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C., is the only structure erected in tribute to the Constitution of the United States of America. The Santa Margarita Chapter DAR invites you to read and study this document, the safeguard of our American liberties.
As Merry Ann T. Wright, president general of the DAR, reminds us, "The Constitution by itself cannot guarantee liberty. A nation's people can remain free only by being responsible citizens."
Take time this week to guard that which is committed to us by our forefathers ---- our freedom.
Wanda Prosser
Convention attendees must have amnesia
After watching the Democratic National Committee this week, it became clear, based on the keynote speakers, that the attendees must be suffering from amnesia.
1. Jimmy Carter ---- the second worst president in the history of the U.S. Even people who voted for him (I did) have come around to accept that fact.
2. Bill Clinton ----- the impeached president, albeit a lovable guy, is directly responsible for the moral decline in this nation.
Voters need to wake up and realize that the Democratic Party ain't what she used to be. A vote for the Democrats is really a vote for the Progressive Party. We should all be getting used to the word "progressive," along with "middle class" and "a level playing field for all" ---- if you aren't familiar with their intentions, please do some research.

How should he feel about America?
There was an online comment on my previous letter ( Sept. 1 ). Now this commenter tried to blame the consequences of our sanctions on Iraq on Saddam Hussein. I have a problem with people who have paid no attention to what was going on coming out and trying to correct those of us who have.
Anyhow, to find out more on our sanctions, go to www.harpers.org/archive/2002/11/0079384?pg=1 . Of course, I don't expect any flag-wavers to do that.
This commenter said that we should hold our head up high and be proud of what we have done. It has been said that I hate America. Since many of my fellow Americans say we should hold our heads up high and be proud of going around the world and causing mass slaughter of innocent people and the destruction of their country, you tell me how I should feel about America.
If there is this god and he blesses America, then I will agree with Iago, who is a character in Verdi's opera "Othello," when he says, "I believe in a cruel god."

Thanks to San Marcos Fire Department
As residents of Lake San Marcos, we wish to personally thank the city of San Marcos fire department and adjacent departments for their prompt response, professionalism and the personal care and help provided to affected residences at the fire scene on Sept. 1.
If not for the above actions and quick thinking of the on-scene fire captain, this fire would have been catastrophe based on the design of our homes.

Library budget is a small investment
I continue to read how important the now-closed East Valley Branch Library is/was to the area neighborhood.
I had visited several times when it was open and it was always a busy place. I suggest the Escondido City Council admit they made an error in judgment when they closed it and find a way to fund and reopen the branch. What could be more important than providing a safe learning environment of the area's residents?
The $200K per year budget seems like a small investment. Perhaps utilizing more volunteers in lieu of paid staff to provide assistance with shelving books, etc., would help decrease the funding obligation.

I am posting this recipe at the request of my dear friend Walter. Earlier this week he had a knee surgery and I made him this soup the night he came back from the hospital. I decided on a chicken-based broth soup vs a vegetable-based broth soup because I wanted the collagen and minerals in the broth to work their wonders on his knee. This recipe is one of my all times favorites. The coconut milk is full of potassium and calcium and the ginger with the lemon aids digestion. It is nourishing, delicious, and surprisingly filling. It is from Sally Fallon's Nourishing Tradition's Cookbook, page 199. I have made some slight alterations in order to adjust the taste to our needs, but feel free to experiment with it and add the ingredients according to your preferences. The measurements are simply suggestions to get you started. I did not take any photos of the soup/broth I brought Walter but here is a version of the soup I made for us today, besides chicken broth, coconut milk, lemon and ginger I also added shredded chicken, spinach and rice.
- 1 quart homemade chicken stock, here is a good recipe
- 1-1 1/2 cup whole, unsweetened coconut milk, you can find it here,
- 4 tsp of grated ginger
- juice of one lemon
- 1 tsp of Celtic Sea Salt, you can find it here,
- 1/2 tsp crushed black pepper
- 1/4 tsp of chili flakes, optional, not recommended to people sensitive to heat
- 1/2 cup of green onions, finely chopped, optional
- 1 tbsp of finely chopped cilantro, optional
- 1 -2 cups of shredded, cooked chicken breast, optional
- 1/2 cup of boiled rice, optional
- spinach, optional
- Bring the stock to a boil and add the coconut milk, lemon juice, ginger, and chili flakes.
- Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Ladle into soup bowl or mugs and garnish with onions and cilantro.
- You can also add a cup or two of shredded, cooked chicken breast and 1/2 cup of boiled rice and even spinach to make it more substantial. (optional)
- Enjoy!

A TEACHING assistant with a family background in education is preparing to wave farewell to her pupils for the last time after 27 years of working with children.
Carol Turner will retire from her role at Eldon Grove Academy, in Hartlepool, next Friday.
She has been a higher level teaching assistant for six years, but says she will always be a nursery nurse, the post she began with, at heart.
The 59-year-old started out at working at the old Lynnfield Primary School and trained with social services at the former Billingham Technical College on day release.
She also worked as a nursery nurse at Turnbull Street school before moving on to Lister Street School, which was to be Eldon Grove's predecessor.
Carol said: "I will miss the children and the families – when you work within the nursery you work with the parents, I have worked with four generations of families and that's special to me."
She asked to officially say farewell to parents and children during the school's strawberry fair earlier this month, where she gave all the youngsters gifts of balloons and chocolate.
Education plays a big part in Carol's family life – her daughter Alison Bunter, married to Simon, is a teacher at Dyke House Sports and Technology College, her son Jonathan Turner, married to Julie, teaches at High Tunstall College of Science.
Her husband Ray, 59, is a bursar at St Bede's Catholic Comprehensive School in Peterlee.
Carol, from Clavering, added: "We are very educational, but we can all help each other – we are very supportive."
She said she plans to spend more time with her grandchildren, Rhianna, Charlie, Alfie, Nina, Isabella and Imogen during her retirement and added: "I'm trying to stay positive, the last day will be emotional."
Head of school Carole Bradley said: "There are so many wonderful things I can say about Carol.
"She has worked with generations of families and her work ethic is tremendous. Everything she does is for the pupils and their families."
"She is a valued member of staff – her experience, dedication and commitment are exceptional."
