George Will: Night of nonsense
In the 12 months we have to steel ourselves for the next State of the Union spectacle, let us count the ways that this spawn of democratic Caesarism -- presidency-worship -- has become grotesque. It would be the most embarrassing ceremony in the nation's civic liturgy were the nation still capable of being embarrassed by its puerile faith in presidential magic.
The Constitution laconically requires only that the president "shall from time to time give to the Congress information of the state of the union, and recommend to their consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient." Nothing requires "from time to time" to be construed as "every damn year." Informing and recommending need not involve today's tawdry ritual of wishful thinking by presidents unhinged from political reality, and histrionics by their audiences. And must we be annually reminded that all presidents think that everything they want is "necessary and expedient"?
Some of the blame for this yearly night of nonsense goes to Ronald Reagan. Most, however, goes to Woodrow Wilson. Reagan, who loved entertainment, pioneered the regrettable practice of stocking the House gallery with (usually) admirable people. Wilson, who loved himself, had, as professors often do, a theory, which caused him to reverse Thomas Jefferson's wholesome reticence.
When the Founding generation was developing customs and manners appropriate to a republic, George Washington and John Adams made the mistake of going to Congress to do their constitutional duty of informing and recommending. Jefferson, however, disliked the sound of his voice -- such an aversion is a vanishingly rare presidential virtue -- and considered it monarchical for the executive to lecture the legislature, the lofty instructing underlings. So he sent written thoughts to Capitol Hill, a practice good enough for subsequent presidents until Wilson in 1913 delivered his message orally, pursuant to the progressives' belief in inspirational and tutelary presidents.
It is beyond unseemly, it is anti-constitutional for senior military officers and, even worse, Supreme Court justices, to attend these political rallies where, with metronomic regularity, legislators of the president's party leap to their feet to whinny approval of every bromide and vow. Members of the other party remain theatrically stolid, thereby provoking brow-furrowing punditry about why John Boehner did not rise (to genuflect? salute? swoon?) when Barack Obama mentioned this or that. Tuesday night, the justices, generals and admirals, looking as awkward as wallflowers at a prom, at least stayed seated.
Except for Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito, who stayed away. They missed a clunker of a speech, although the tedium was not much worse than usual, and was redeemed by clarifying three things.
First, Obama's declaration that nothing in his long list of proposed spending "should" -- should? -- "increase our deficit by a single dime" means there should be commensurate tax increases. Second, now that he has proclaimed that government "must keep the promises we've already made," only the uneducable can still believe he will consider entitlement reforms. Third, by saying spending cuts under the sequester would be "harsh" and would "devastate" domestic programs, he made applesauce of those two words: The cuts would remove only $85 billion from this year's almost $3.6 trillion budget, and over a decade they would cut just $1.2 trillion from projected spending of $46 trillion. And spending this year would still be well above the post-1945 norm as a percentage of gross domestic product.
Although Obama is a self-proclaimed respecter of science, he does not stoop to empiricism. Understandably. Data are unkind to his assertion that climate change is causing storms to become more severe and drought to become more prevalent. Measured by "accumulated cyclone energy," hurricane and other tropical cyclone activity is at a three-decade low, and Nature journal reports that globally "there has been little change in drought over the past 60 years."
Wilson's stroke prevented him from delivering the State of the Union orally in 1919 and 1920, but Warren Harding, not known for a strong sense of propriety, continued the deplorable practice in 1921 and 1922. Calvin Coolidge did so in 1923, four months after becoming president, but not a second time. Wilson's practice was, however, made the norm by the man who had first come to Washington as Wilson's assistant secretary of the Navy, Franklin Roosevelt.
State of the Union addresses are now integral to the apotheosis of the presidency. If government is going to be omniprovident, modern presidents are going to be omnipresent, and politics is going to be infantile.

Movie review: Tolkien fans will love 'The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug'
It doesn't matter how good this movie is (it's quite good), if you haven't seen the first one – last year's "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" – there's really no reason to buy a ticket for this one. Oh, it stands on its own, as a solid movie with a well defined beginning, middle, and end, but only if you've already begun the journey of its long, twisting, turning tale.
That first film, even with its convoluted storyline, and its endless stream of exposition concerning meeting character after character, took in over a billion dollars at the box office. If the ecstatic reaction from Tolkien geeks and cloak- and beard-wearing fans of the book and the first movie at the recent world premiere of part two of Peter Jackson's trilogy is any indication, it's all going to happen again.
"The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" — Smaug being the dragon that decimated the Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor and now calmly sleeps inside Erebor's Lonely Mountain, beneath the remains of the biggest treasure of gold since the days of Ali Baba — picks up right where the first film left off. Thirteen Dwarves, headed by their future king, Thorin (Richard Armitage), along with the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and the Hobbit Bilbo (Martin Freeman) are on, as everyone seems to be in a Tolkien adventure, a journey, this one heading back to Lonely Mountain to reclaim Erebor from the dragon.
Thank goodness they don't all have to be introduced again. The action can just begin, and there's plenty of it, compliments of Jackson's extraordinary grasp of how to merge live actors with CGI effects, as well as, along with his writing team, the ability to tell a thrilling story and give some depth to the characters within it.
Yet there's still a bit of a problem with all of those characters, as unless you're one of those aforementioned geeks, you're going to have some trouble keeping track of them and their names and who among them is related to whom. But that's OK. Just go with the energetic flow. You'll soon figure out that the Dwarves and the Hobbit and the wizard are the good guys, that the hideous Orcs who are hunting them down because they have "a taste for Dwarf blood" are the bad guys, and the Wood-Elves – Orlando Bloom returns as Prince Legolas, and Evangeline Lilly ("Lost") is introduced as Captain of the Guard Tauriel – are somewhere in between. (Note: Legolas only appeared in "The Lord of the Rings" books, not "The Hobbit," and Tauriel is a newly invented character, but their incorporation in this film is pulled off without a hitch, and fans were not complaining.)
That energy comes from some fantastic set pieces that regularly place our little heroes in peril. Arachnophobes might have a squirmy time watching the Dwarves' encounter with the huge and hungry spiders of Mirkwood Forest (I know I did!). Yet scary sequences like that are balanced with the wild comedy that's part of the same group's barrel ride down some roaring rapids. That part is, excuse the expression, barrels of fun! But the film's high point occurs near the end when the titular psychotic dragon (mellifluously and malevolently voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch) makes his appearance in creepy conversation with Bilbo, and turns out to be the best flying, fire-breathing dragon in cinema history.
One of the coolest things about the film, at least for fans of British TV, is that the pairing of and acting by Cumberbatch and Freeman in the dragon and Hobbit scene is 180 degrees away from the equally wonderful work they do as Sherlock Holmes and John Watson on the BBC series "Sherlock."
Yet the film is by no means for everyone. It's extremely violent (I'm talking about arrows through heads and decapitations) and even though the visual effects are astounding, the much-ballyhooed 48 frames-per-second projection still makes some of it look like a soap opera (it would be best to catch it in IMAX 3D). The trilogy's finale, "The Hobbit: There and Back Again," will hit theaters on Dec. 17, 2014.

Newtown killer may have wanted to top Norwegian's toll
Adam Lanza may have picked Sandy Hook Elementary School for his killing spree because it was the easiest target for outdoing Norwegian mass murderer who killed 77 people in July 2011, according to two media reports.
The Hartford Courant, quoting unidentified law enforcement sources, reported Tuesday that the theory is based in part on several news articles about Norwegian killer Anders Behring Breivik that investigators found in one of Lanza's two bedrooms at the home he shared with his mother in Newtown, Conn.
The newspaper cautions, however, that sources are treating the Breivik rivalry motive as just one theory.
In December, the 20-year-old Lanza killed his sleeping mother before murdering 20 first-graders and six educators at the school. He then committed suicide as police closed in.
CBS News reported Monday night that two officials briefed on the investigation said Lanza was likely acting out a video game fantasy and saw himself as a competitor to the right-wing fanatic who killed eight people in an Oslo bombing before slaughtering 69 young people on an island camp.
Breivik was sentenced last August to 21 years in prison.
STORY:Many of young school victims were shot multiple times
Lanza spent hours alone in a basement gaming room and also went to a shooting range with his mother. Police said he used three weapons in the Sandy Hook massacre, including a semiautomatic assault rifle, and shot his mother with fourth weapon.
Lanza targeted the school because it offered the "largest cluster of people," the sources told CBS.
The Courant also quoted sources on Lanza's movements inside the school that day. One theory is that he likely bypassed the first two classes he encountered and began his assault in a far room so that he would work his way back to the front entrance in order to get more ammunition from his nearby car if needed.
The law enforcement sources also said that Lanza likely was shooting at a teacher standing near a window when bullets hit three cars in the parking lot and was not firing at police outside as initially surmised, the newspaper reported.
Police have not officially released a motive for Lanza. Connecticut State Police said that the investigation continues and that any statements about Lanza's intentions were just speculation.

Originally published in Blogger and Podcaster Magazine and updated. I write for a variety of online and offline magazines. They've graciously permit me to republish my articles.
Participating in a recent multiple guest blogger event, I edited and review posts by many top bloggers before publishing. I was rather stunned to find that even veteran bloggers sometimes forget the most basic blog writing and search engine optimization techniques these same bloggers frequently blog about.
There could be many reasons why these basic blogging tips were overlooked. They could have been in a hurry, a little lazy, or maybe they think these things aren't important any more, but they are often critical to the success of an article.
Search engine optimization techniques improve your blog's ranking in search engine results. If the search engine can move easily through your blog without interruption or error, you have a good start on inclusion in a search engine's search results. Where your blog appears in those search results is based upon what Google calls PageRank and TrustRank, algorithms that score your blog and blog posts ranking in the results based upon a number of factors. [NOTE: Google has taken their PageRank data offline but the principles have not changed.]
The steps these veteran bloggers missed were critical to improving the blog's page ranking.
Words are most important to determining your ranking in search engines. Search engines can't "see" nor evaluate images or podcasts. How words are used, and where they are found within your blog post, influences the PageRank score. These words, known as keywords, are the search terms used by those searching for your blog post. If you don't use keyword-rich content, searchers can't find you.
When you use the following SEO, page ranking, and blogging techniques on your blog, you win favor not just with search engines, but with readers. The easier you make it for the reader to read and enjoy your blog posts, the more willing they are to dig deeper into your blog and return for more.
Most of these techniques helped many top bloggers get to the top blogging spot. Just because they've forgotten how it works, don't you forget.
1. Writing Good Links
Basic SEO 101 covers the benefits and power of links, so why do so many bloggers ignore their links? Web links are required by web and accessibility standards to feature descriptive text within the anchor HTML tag and the anchor text. The PageRank algorithm uses the keywords within these areas to add or subtract from the final score.
A good link in a blog post or website requires the following:
Descriptive Anchor Text: The text within the link must describe what the link is to, or contain words that give the reader a clue as to the link's content. It should never be the words "this" or "that" or the dreaded "click here" or "here."
I recommend this article on dog behavior and training as a good resource...
Link Title: Inside of the anchor tag, the
title attribute is required to meet web standards for accessibility and must include a description of the link's destination, title, and/or content. For example:
I recommend this article on dog behavior and training as a good resource...
Tags Inside of Links: If the link is a tag, then it should be marked accordingly with the tag attribute. Not all links are tags, but if they are, include it. The tag word or phrase becomes the text within the link, not the descriptive title text. For "dog behavior" as a tag, you would use the following:
I recommend this article on dog behavior and training as a good resource...
[NOTE: Tags are not currently recognized by search engines or directories except for Technorati. It doesn't hurt nor help to identify links as tags.]
Do Not Force Links to Open in a New Window: In the old days of the web, the worry was that the visitor would click a link and never come back. Forcing links to open in a new window was believed to keep the visitor coming back to the source. Today, the world honors those who make good recommendations on their blogs, inviting the visitor to leave, which in turn, encourages them to come back without being forced to return.
Forcing links to open in a new window now violates web and accessibility standards, and can even cause the blogger to lose readers. The ability for Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, and other browsers to open web pages in tabs instead of full windows with a click of the center button of the mouse gives control back to the reader, letting them decide how they want to visit link recommendations. Most know how to use their back button.
Currently, the only acceptable reason to force links to open in a new window is when featuring a demonstration or tutorial requiring the reader go back and forth between the post and the demo. Such a link requires a warning on the link such as:
First, view this video (opens in new window) featuring a new method for training a dog to obey the sit command. When you come back, I'll describe the pros and cons of this method...
2. Writing Descriptions for Images, Podcasts, Flash, and Video
If we can't read it in words, search engines can't see it. Nor can web users who are visually or physically impaired relying upon machine text readers to read a web page to them.
Images, podcasts, video, any graphic or visual element with no written words needs words to speak on the visual element's behalf, helping the reader understand what they are about to see or hear. Keywords and search terms found in and around links to images, podcasts, flash, and video add to the wealth of page ranking scores, especially when they match the keywords within your post title and links.
Put Descriptions in Images: The description attribute inside of the image HTML tag describes the image in words for those who can't see, and for search engines who are also blind.
Playing ball with dogs is a great way to exercise, both you and the dog...
Put Descriptions Around Non-Text Elements: If you are embedding a video, podcast, or flash in your blog, add a description within the code, but also within the post content. Use keywords and search terms people will use to find the multimedia. Describe the multimedia element so search engines can find the information and show case it, and give the reader a reason to click and enjoy.
Include an Outline or Transcription: For video and podcasts embedded in your blog, let the readers read the content within, not just see it. Video and podcasts need to have the minimum of an outline, at most, a transcript, of the content. Include a list of the links discussed in the video or podcast. This helps with SEO and encourages readers to click through to view or listen to the multimedia if they know in advance the value within.
3. Use Headings Appropriately
Reading a blog post, especially huge paragraphs and long posts, can be hard on the eyes. Break up content into smaller chunks with headings.
Headings involve usage of the heading HTML tags:
h3, and
h4. As the number gets bigger, the size of the heading should grow smaller, as well as the emphasis, creating an outline form of subtitles and section titles.
Headings divide the content into sections, encouraging the reader to jump down through the text to the section of most importance to them. Headings also draw the eye through the post content, like breadcrumbs, leading them through to the end.
Use descriptive words that tells the reader what each section is about, and use keyword-rich content to improve your search engine optimization and page ranking score. Words inside of HTML heading tags get extra points when they match the keywords within your post, post title, post links, and image tags.
Many bloggers create headings without using the HTML tags. They wrap the words in a bold and/or capitalize them. Use the appropriate headings HTML tag for your blog's design as that carries more weight with SEO than the bold tag.
4. Break Paragraphs Up
It's very hard to read long columns of unbroken text on a web page. Most readers read the first line or two and then skip down to the next paragraph, scanning rather than reading.
Blog writing is different from other writing forms because of the visual on-screen element. It's harder to read on a screen than on paper. Thus, it's easier to read content in smaller chunks of text.
Traditional writing groups concepts together. An idea is expressed, explained, justified, then summarized at the end of the paragraph.
Blog writing divides concepts into parts and pieces, where the idea is expressed in one paragraph, explained in another, justified in another, and the summary is in another paragraph.
Repeated research shows that the easier the article is to read, the more likely the reader is to make it to the end of the material no matter the length. Headings, lists, and smaller paragraphs help move the eye through the content.
5. Use Blockquotes Appropriately and Correctly
Blockquoting is the process of quoting or referencing a portion of content from another blog post. It is generally wrapped in a

 HTML tag and indents the content, as well as adds some style to make the quoted content stand out from the rest of the text visually.
Blockquotes are usually preceded or followed by content with a citation link to the referenced blog and/or blog post. Sometimes, the citation is included within.
Many bloggers use the blockquote tag as headings, to indent, make lists, or highlight something they've said, like a pull-quote in print media, rather than as a quote from another source.
The blockquote tag is specifically for quoting, not for design elements. There are other design elements for creating headings, indentions, lists, or pull-quotes. Use the appropriate HTML tags for the appropriate design elements.
6. Abusing Bolds and Italics
There is no reason why a blog post must be filled with a lot of bold text within the post content, making it look like an old print advertisement. With the correct use of headings, lists, and other elements, the excessive use of bold and italic is abusive and distracting.
Did your eye hopscotch through the above paragraph? You didn't read it, you just skimmed it, going from bold to bold to bold. In this paragraph, you are probably wondering about the italic emphasis instead of what it is really saying.
Headings and lists draw the eye naturally through the post. The eye stops on bold words. When the bold emphasis is abused, the eye jerks through the post, without the mind absorbing the content. Anything that distracts the reader along the journey risks losing the reader for good.
Bold should only be used for headings, titles, subtitles, and bullet references. It is also used in technical writing in instructions such as "To view blog comments, click on the Comments panel."
Italics should be used for specific emphasis, such as on emotions, foreign, or unusual words. It is also used for proper titles of things like books and movies. The abuse of italic for air quotes should be not used or used "judiciously" as it often distracts the reader. If you can't imply the air quotes in your writing, italics won't help.
7. Stop Writing Bad Post Titles
What are the following posts about?
- Links for the Week of 08-26-07
- I think I've found it
- Wow! That was cool!
- I did it again
- Some people never learn
- You should have seen it
- Some Tips for You
Even veteran bloggers forget that the post title tells the whole story. Titles can make or break a potential visitor's willingness click through to that blog post in their feed reader or search results. Would you click through on any of those titles?
An effective blog post title must do the following:
- Summarize the post content.
- Set expectations for what the reader will read.
- Contain keywords and search terms.
- Catch the reader's eye.
- Be useful.
- Make them click.
What Are You Forgetting In Your Blog Posts?
These were the most common mistakes I found within the code and style of these veteran bloggers – they should know better. What about you? What are you forgetting or overlooking to do within your blog posts to improve their search engine results and readability? What might you be forgetting to do that interferes with your blog's content and potential success?
The key to writing effective blog posts is found within the balance of words that go into the post content and the code that supports them. Make your blog search engine friendly, and in turn, you make your blog reader friendly.

Color Options from American Patchwork & Quilting® December 2012
Festive Flurries
Designer: Jocelyn Ueng of It's Sew Emma
An abstract snowflake block is so quick to piece you'll be able to make a bed-size quilt in a snow day or two. Fabrics are from the Blitzen collection by BasicGrey for Moda Fabrics.
Festive Flurries Color Option
Blooming Block Wall Hanging
Quilt tester Laura Boehnke welcomes spring with her 52-1⁄2x62-1⁄2" version of Festive Flurries that features blooming flowers instead of snowflakes. Watercolor-inspired fabrics helped Laura create a painterly effect. Fabrics are from the Garden Medley collection by Susie Johnson for RJR Fabrics.
Charming Addition
Designer: Kathie Holland
No two plus signs in this throw are the same! Dig into your stash--or swap 2-1⁄2"-wide strips with your friends--to create a quilt that's positively "scraptacular."
Charming Addition Color Option
Wall of Color
To make this graphic 44x42" wall hanging, quilt tester Laura Boehnke chose 14 solids (1⁄8 to 1⁄4 yard of each color) for the 61 plus signs, 15 half plus signs, and 15 single squares. A dark brown border (cut 2-1⁄2" wide) neatly contains the wide variety of lights, mediums, and darks. FABRICS are from the Kona Cotton Solids collection from Robert Kaufman Fabrics.
Jolly and Bright
Designer: Linda Lum DeBono
Add a punch of color to your holiday decor with a fusible appliqué quilt.
Jolly and Bright Color Option
Newborn Baby Wall Hanging
For her 30-1⁄2x37-1⁄2" version of Jolly and Bright, quilt tester Laura Boehnke turned the ornament appliqués upside down to create a row of baby rattles, transforming the quick-to-make wall hanging into a baby shower gift. Laura used the same dark blue thread to appliqué all shapes, making the construction even faster. Fabrics are from the Vintage Summer collection by Little Yellow Bicycle for Blend Fabrics.
Best in Show
Designer: Mary Elizabeth Kinch
An abundance of tiny pieces, an unconventional border, and stunning quilting add up to a blue-ribbon quilt inspired by an antique.
Best in Show Color Option
Hot and Cold Wall Hanging
Pick a mix of prints and batiks like quilt tester Laura Boehnke did with her 53"-square version of Best in Show. Fiery orange-and-fuchsia and serene green Pinwheels float in a sea of aqua batik setting pieces. Fabrics are from the Watercolor Parade collection and Sumatra batik collection, both from Blank Quilting.
Deck the Wall
Designer: Debbie Beaves
Decorate for the season with a festive, quick-to-make wall hanging or table runner. What makes it even easier? The featured ornaments are fussy-cut, not appliquéd! Fabrics are from the Haute Ho Ho collection for Maywood Studio.
Deck the Wall Color Option
Rose Bouquet Table Runner
To bring this quilt to the table, use a nondirectional print in the block centers. Quilt tester Laura Boehnke made her version of Deck the Wall a seasonless table runner with romantic cottage appeal. Fabrics are from the Friendship Tea collection by Sandy Lynam Clough for Red Rooster Fabrics.

Service is at the heart of everything 4Life does. As you change your life with the phenomenal 4Life products and outstanding financial opportunity, you can change others' lives through meaningful acts of service.
Our goal is to make a real difference in the lives of children and their families in the countries where 4Life conducts business. By creating long-lasting relationships with on-the-ground aid organizations and families, we build a legacy of service that allows children in need to become productive citizens in their communities.
We focus on three essential areas of a child's life—nutrition, shelter, and education. As Affiliates and employees support our non-profit entity, Foundation 4Life®, and our for-profit 4Life Fortify® nutrition program, we can provide children and their families with the necessary tools to become self-sufficient and discover the power to break the cycle of poverty for generations to come.
Service has always been a part of the overall 4Life mission. In 2006, 4Life formalized their charitable giving and created Foundation 4Life to build the lives of those less fortunate. Our mission is to provide resources that empower individuals to become self-reliant in countries where 4Life conducts business.
With a particular focus on the children of the world, this 501(c)(3) entity utilizes 100% of all donations to provide tools and training that will elevate young people and their families out of poverty. While we strive to recognize and respond to community needs on various levels, the pinnacle of our giving is educational initiatives that foster the opportunity for a community to change for generations to come.
In many parts of the world, parents and caregivers ration daily earnings to provide children with one decent meal per day. This lack of quality nutrition has a lifelong impact on physical, social, and economic development.
4Life Fortify is much more than a bag of food. It's a lifeline for a child, a family, a community, and an entire society. 4Life Fortify provides energy and health support so a child can go to school and contribute to her community. Each bag includes rice, lentils, beans, a nutritional complex of vitamins and minerals, and 4Life Transfer Factor® Tri-Factor® Formula.
4Life Fortify is a for-profit product that provides Affiliates with a direct opportunity to be a positive influence in the global hunger crisis. Affiliates can purchase and donate 4Life Fortify to build the life of a child—and build their business at the same time. Each bag is worth 25 Life Points (LP) in the Life Rewards Plan™.
For more information on these worldwide donations, and to see how you can get involved in fighting malnutrition and poverty, visit 4lifefortify.com.
*4Life Research® offers an incentive to buy, donate, and promote 4Life Fortify meal packs. Commission is included in the price of the pack and allows Affiliates to invest their time and resources to encourage others to join 4Life's legacy of service. 4Life Fortify is a product created and supported by 4Life Research, a for-profit company that facilitates donations of purchased 4Life Fortify meal packs to non-profit partners such as Feed The Children. Charity partners distribute 4Life Fortify to children in need without charge or fees.
