YOUR Money…..POOF!
Apparently, the Obamas need another vacation, on our dime of course.
3 Trillion Reasons Not to Raise Taxes Again
Amy Payne – The Foundry
Do you know how much President Obama has raised taxes?
Oh, by about $3 trillion.
In a new paper, Heritage expert Curtis Dubay reminds us:
President Obama has already raised taxes substantially twice—first as part of Obamacare and then as part of the "fiscal cliff" deal earlier this year. Together, those increases raised taxes by more than $1.3 trillion over 10 years. Including the payroll tax increase that was also part of the fiscal cliff deal, taxes have risen by almost $3 trillion during President Obama's tenure.
That's right: Taxes have risen by almost $3 trillion during President Obama's tenure.
Kill IT, Before IT Kills U.S.
Let's see….I don't have "affordable" employer-sponsored health insurance, and although I couldn't swear to it, I think our annual income is below those numbers, there being just the two of us…unless we can count the cats…so it looks like I can scam the taxpayers! Isn't that lovely?
NO! NO, it's not lovely at all! Why? Because we're not cheats, or thieves, or liars! This, of course, means we can't be Democrats or politicians! If there was ANY integrity left in D.C., which there isn't, Congress would be RUSHING to defund, and/or repeal, this monstrosity.
How to Use Obamacare to Scam Taxpayers
Amy Payne – The Foundry
Looking for a little extra cash? If you're interested in defrauding taxpayers, it might be as easy as writing down a number on a form.
The number is your income. The form is the Obamacare application.
If you do not have "affordable" employer-sponsored health insurance and your income is between about $31,800 and $94,200 for a family of four (that is, between 138 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty level), you qualify for an insurance subsidy through Obamacare.
But when you apply for coverage in the Obamacare insurance exchange, it's up to you to report your income accurately. It turns out that the IRS won't be checking everyone's Obamacare applications.
Heritage health care expert Chris Jacobs ran the numbers to show what a difference a little fraud can make. He took a hypothetical family of four with $90,000 in income who were eligible for coverage through the exchange. If this family were honest, they would receive a subsidy of $2,997 to help cover their insurance premiums.
But if that same family put down $35,000 as their income instead, they would receive $10,175 from taxpayers. Even if they were caught, they would have to pay back only $2,500 of their ill-gotten subsidy, due to a loophole in Obamacare.
Will anyone be checking? It's doubtful, Jacobs writes:
Supporters of the law claim this scenario will not happen, due to the penalties associated with misrepresenting information on application forms and tax documents. But with government auditors noting the exchanges have missed critical deadlines, and Obamacare anti-fraud investigations being cancelled, will the federal government really have the resources necessary to enforce the law, much less ensure taxpayer funds are not being abused?
Congress should not expose taxpayers to this kind of liability. It's another reason to defund Obamacare.
Congress = Poverty Pimps
Honestly, with a very few exceptions, I'm so flippin' disgusted with the lot of 'em, I'm at the point where, come hell or high water, they ALL need to go! We need to start from scratch…AGAIN! Kick the whole bunch, legislative, DEFINITELY the executive, judicial, and all the damn alphabets, to the curb! The good ones, that have stuck with their oaths…which are few and far between, we can keep to help get our Constitutional Republic back where it belongs. The rest of 'em? Not one penny in benefits! Let them struggle the same way we have been struggling because of their criminal activities. Some need to be behind bars!! Physical labor to earn their keep! Cleaning sewers might be a good job for them, since they've dished out so much chit! We are past the point of tolerance! Stop wasting OUR money!!
The House of Second Chances
Amy Payne – The Foundry
The farm bill died in the House—but could it live again?
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) is reportedly pushing to split up the old farm bill and take food stamps out of it.
The Heritage Foundation has argued that it didn't make sense to combine the bloated food stamp program with farm-related programs in the first place. It is supposed to be the "farm" bill, after all. And with food stamp costs doubling under President Obama, it's a program that deserves a careful look on its own.
Splitting up the bill is the first step toward reforming both food stamp and farm spending. In a new paper, Heritage experts Daren Bakst and Rachel Sheffield write that "The House now has a second chance to pass a farm bill that benefits taxpayers, farmers, and food stamp recipients."
Our Tax Dollars At Work!
Let's see…we have….what is it…47%?…paying all the taxes that pays for the gubmint, bureaucracies, all their ridiculous programs, supporting MILLIONS of people who won't, or can't, work and contribute to society in general. But we have folks over there at the DHS perusing the interwebz looking for a chuckle about Michelle Obama? Seriously? Not sure how THIS post qualifies, but oh well. Whatever floats yer boat! How about you doing this kind of thing on your OWN time, and on your OWN computer, paid for with your salary paid with OUR money, eh?
ZoNation – The Government Stole Zo's Money
You Can't Say You Weren't Warned!!
Pleading ignorance won't work this time around! So many, myself included, warned that there would be hell to pay if Obama was elected, and if he was elected, this atrocity was passed. You were warned! Well, welcome to Obama's custom made HELL!
Many people are already feeling the effects of this monstrosity, higher premiums, denied service, etc., and it hasn't even been implemented yet! Just wait till the FULL effect smacks us ALL in the face!
Being forced to buy something you don't want, or pay the penalty for not doing so? Seems to me that's unconstitutional. Forced to pay taxes on medical devices…needed to LIVE? "I won't raise your taxes ONE DIME!" And let's not forget the bureaucrats who will decide who lives or dies! No death panels, eh? There's a LOT of people who owe Sarah Palin a HUGE apology! Damn fools should have read the bill BEFORE they passed it! I did!!
Yep, I detest this administration, and everything it stands for. This is NOT why our forefathers fought and died! This is what they fought and died AGAINST!
The IRS and Obamacare, by the Numbers
Christopher Jacobs – The Foundry
Chilling new details emerged yesterday about the IRS targeting scandal, as representatives from six conservative groups testified before Congress about the scrutiny and demands they faced from Obama administration bureaucrats.
Yesterday's testimony reminded us once again why Washington bureaucrats cannot be trusted, and why Americans should be so concerned about the new powers granted to the IRS as a result of Obamacare.
These powers are so vast, in fact, they're difficult to put into words. So instead, we decided to give you the numbers:

Who Really Gets Farm Bill Money
Kelsey Harris – The Foundry
Whenever Congress throws too much into one bill, special interests profit. The massive farm bill—which is already 80 percent food stamps—is no exception.
So what about the rest of the bill—the farm-related part? Heritage's Diane Katz reports that it includes subsidies for more than a few surprising recipients. SHARE our infographic to spread the word.
Pull The Reins!!
It's seems that way too many in this country don't care the nation is so far in debt their great grandchildren will never see the light of day. Likely because THEY are part of the problem. It's what can you give me, and to hell with anyone else. Politicians use this to get elected…and re-elected…and re-elected…until they are so entrenched in D.C., they couldn't possibly function out in the real world where their decisions have made life intolerable for so many.
Since Congress won't put the reins on their spending, won't give up their reign of power, perhaps it's time for us to rain on their parade! We have an election coming up in 2014, and unless WE, The People take back control of our country from the little Napoleons shredding our Constitution, then we are gonna be in a bigger world of hurt, and the only people we can blame is ourselves, and our fellow citizens that don't give a damn! The only thing I could say to the "I don't care" types is…. "You SUCK as a parent!" Of course, I could say a few things a bit more strong, but since I'm a lady…..

ZoNation – IRS Scandal…
…Uncovers the Ugly Side of Income Taxes
A Few Saturday Thoughts
This has been quite an interesting week. Personal and political. I have actually avoided a lot of the "tabloid" news. Most, I could give a flying flip. We have been inundated with some stupid, crazy, broad that murdered her boyfriend. Is it necessary to do more than 2 or 3 minutes on this trash? Ok, we know she shot, stabbed, and darn near decapitated the poor guy. She was found guilty of first degree murder (took 'em long enough) and…she'd rather get the death penalty than spend the rest of her life in prison! The lame stream media seems to believe this was so important, they spend way too much time covering the story when there were a LOT more important issues to address.
Like what you ask? Well, there's that Mengele wanna be in Philadelphia for one. The prosecution presented a very compelling case, and the defense rested. Nothing. Rather odd, but hey…when you have that much to dispute, and you already several pleading guilty on the same charges, it's kind of hard to defend someone who murdered babies and a 'mother'. He should have been charged with a lot more, but hey….if this will put a stop to his slaughter, ok! The jury is STILL out on this one. Strange that the lame stream didn't even pick up the story for months. Just recently they have been shamed into giving the story a bit of attention. I could have given them a verdict in about 2 seconds, but since there are actually 227 charges, I guess it takes a while.
What SHOULD have been the lead story for EVERY media outlet was the hearings on Benghazi! But no…it wasn't even important enough to trump the tabloid media's coverage of the bimbo from hell! FINALLY, yesterday, the lame stream took notice, and pounded Obama's mouthpiece. If you saw any of the press conference'that was delayed for 3 hours because of a "private meeting", you would have been impressed. Naturally, the White House's very own Bagdad Bob, Carney blamed the Republicans. You'd think someone would step up, but no, this is the Obama administration is incapable of taking responsibility for ANYTHING! Kind of reminds me of a 4 year old that broke the cookie jar. People wouldn't be so up in arms if, just for once, they'd tell the freakin' truth! That's all we're asking!
Then we had the IRS. Yes, that 'non-partison', government run, money stealing bunch literally TARGETED the Tea Parties, and anyone who is associated with any of the Tea Party groups, even a former candidate for the House! Oh, they apologized, but that ain't cuttin' it! I wonder if the small issue we had was related? Naw…couldn't be! …… Let's not forget that this is the same IRS that will be 'in charge' of all the Obamacare "it's not a tax" taxes.
As for the personal part of the week…. I've spent a lot of time with doctors. Next week, and the week after….same thing. I now have general, bone, heart, snout, blood, and skin doc. Jiminy crickets! So, blogging will just as light, or maybe even non existent, on most days. I've also got a lot on my mind, as you can imagine. sigh… I still think it would be cheaper if the Mr just got that young fella to bring over his backhoe, dig a 6×4, and toss me in! Sheesh!
Tax and SPEND SPEND SPEND!
Most people, when they get to the end of their paycheck, do without. Not our Congress! Nope! They believe that since it's not their money they are spending, and don't have to work hard to earn it, they can do what they damn well please. Well, guess what ya free spending scum bags….WE CAN'T AFFORD YOU! Perhaps it's time for WE, The People to put them on a strict budget. NO PAY! NO PERKS! If they want to serve in Congress, then that's what they'll do…SERVE….not be served! That goes for the free spending POTUS as well. NO more lavish parties! NO more flitting about the world on expensive vacations. NO more day trips to campaign! ENOUGH!!
They have turned the citizens into slaves, working for THEIR pet projects, and doing NOTHING to earn the privilege. The intent of Congress is to serve in the best interest of THE PEOPLE. That no longer is true, and it breaks my heart to see what this country has become due to the hateful partisanship.
We have a POTUS that has pretty much destroyed the work of thousands of civil rights advocates over a long period of time in just a few short years, and divided this country in ways I haven't seen since I was quite young. We have a Congress that undermines anything good that MIGHT be accomplished, on BOTH sides of the aisle. And we have a split between the haves, that work hard to succeed, and the have nots, who believe they are entitled to what they did not earn. About half the country pay no taxes, and the other half pay all of the taxes that support both those who won't work, and a Congress that is barely functional, with all their grand USELESS ideas.
I can hear it now…. "I do too pay taxes!" If you get a refund of the income tax taken out of your check, plus earned income credit, plus Lord knows what else, no…you don't. We have about 47% of the population not really contributing, and 539 individuals that are spending everything, PLUS trillions, that comes into the coffers. Where is the logic???
Ready for Another Debt Limit Fight?
Amy Payne – The Foundry
Yes, it's time to talk about the debt limit again.
Every time the U.S. bumps up against its debt ceiling, we start the cycle all over again. President Obama insists he won't negotiate over the debt ceiling, but of course he will. Members of Congress grandstand about changing this vicious cycle, and then most clamber for the easy way out so they can return to matters they'd rather talk about, which is just about anything but cutting spending.
Meanwhile, federal spending continues its out-of-control expansion, and the debt clock keeps ticking.
We will hit the debt limit again on May 19. Treasury is expected to exhaust its cash management tools sometime in September or October. In the meantime, Washington's periodic debt ceiling ritual will play out. Whatever happens, the debt limit should not be raised unless we are put on a path to balance the budget in 10 years. That's the bottom line.
Stealing From Aid Funds?
Andrew Cuomo Launches Ad Campaign to Lure Businesses to N.Y.
New York governor Andrew Cuomo is launching a $140 million ad campaign to lure businesses to the Empire State. The campaign, "New York State Open for Business," is being funded with money drawn from federal disaster aid received in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and from the Power Authority and Energy Research and Development Authority, according to the New York Times. (emphasis mine)
Excuse me, but I was under the impression that our tax dollars that go to aid the folks who suffer from disasters, natural or otherwise, were meant to actually AID those people, NOT be spent on ridiculous ads, that are nothing more than total BS! Have you seen any of those ads? Make me want to throw things at the idjit box!
"….fear the people…."
I've highlighted the names of the "gang of eight" so you won't forget them. If you want to read this bill, also known as JOLT ACT of 2013, you can read the whole text of gobbledy gook here. While there are a few issues that MUST be addressed, and should have been a LONG time ago, the is a lot in this bill that shouldn't even be considered! At some point, I just might go through the whole 844 pages, and address those, but for now, do your own homework!
IMHO, they should have made issues addressed in the Congressional Findings (Section 2) THE bill, and left the rest for another time, when we are back on our feet, so to speak.
(1) The passage of this Act recognizes that the primary tenets of its success depend on securing the sovereignty of the United States of America and establishing a coherent and just system for integrating those who seek to join American society.
Our 'sovereignty' has become a really bad joke. And as for 'integrating'? Waving the Mexican, or other foreign flags, DEMANDING 'rights', is not integrating. Refusing to learn the language of the land is not integrating. Bringing 'third world' habits and policies and insisting WE adapt to YOUR way, is not integrating.
(2) We have a right, and duty, to maintain and secure our borders, and to keep our country safe and prosperous. As a nation founded, built and sustained by immigrants we also have a responsibility to harness the power of that tradition in a balanced way that secures a more prosperous future for America.
Well, our borders are NOT secure, and we are NOT safe. The drug cartels have made themselves quite at home in cities like Chicago, a place where murder is so common place, with some of the strictest 'gun control' laws…in the world…it has become a poster child for how NOT to run a city, county….country!
These are the two major issues that should have been addressed, and the rest left to other bills, broken down individually, instead of lumping the whole chit works into one bill. Congress has a real bad habit of throwing in crap, and this bill is no different. Address these issues FIRST. Get the border secured, which will take YEARS, and remove the criminal element from out streets. Shoot the sons of beeches if necessary, but get them away from our children. Does it make sense for a legal citizen, or resident, to fear for their lives every time they walk out their front doors? HELL NO! So, why aren't those in Washington concerned about US? Because it's all politics!
No self respecting member of the U.S. Senate would EVER introduce such garbage. Then again, we have no self respecting representatives in the government anymore, and they SURE don't respect us! WE want our borders secured, immediately, but this is not a priority. WE want our streets safe from criminals, and criminals removed, but this also, is not a priority.
What is the priority? Votes. 11 MILLION new voters, the majority of whom will make sure we continue to lose our God given, Constitutionally guaranteed, liberties by assuring that the Democrats>liberals>progressives>socialists>commies will have a strangle hold on power.
This bill, as is, is something this country can't afford, financially, or morally. I've heard so many spewing on the idjit box how "no one is an illegal person'. Well, they are wrong. Being a person isn't illegal. Breaking into someone else's home, expecting them to feed, clothe, take you to the doctor, and pay for all your wants and whims IS illegal, is IS a crime. Handing over the keys to the house is just plain ignorant!
"Former House Majority Leader Dick Armey (R-TX) once noted that three groups spend other people's money: thieves, children, and politicians—and all three need supervision." Politicians have shown themselves to be both childish, and thieves. It's way past time for WE, The People to regain control of our country, and OUR money! Any politician that fails to uphold his/her oath of office should be run out on a rail! WE need to put the fear of God back into them, and the fear of us!
"When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny." Thomas Jefferson
American Families Cannot Afford the Cost of Amnesty
Derrick Morgan – The Foundry
Our nation is going broke, and now is not the time to increase burdens on American families.
The Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act (S. 744)—commonly called the "Gang of Eight bill" after the eight Senators who came up with it, Charles Schumer (D-NY), Dick Durbin (D-IL), Robert Menendez (D-NJ), Michael Bennet (D-CO), John McCain (R-AZ), Jeff Flake (R-AZ), Marco Rubio (R-FL), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC)—includes amnesty for some 11 million unlawful immigrants. That amnesty would further burden taxpayers and weaken our fiscal situation. Congress should not rush to pass the bill without understanding the cost to the American taxpayer, especially when key research identifying and calculating those costs is nearly complete.
We have more than $12 trillion in public debt and tens of trillions of dollars more in unfunded obligations that we have no way to afford, thanks to promises made by past and present politicians. With this in mind, today's political leaders must consider the fiscal impact of amnesty and a path to citizenship that would enable millions of unlawful immigrants to qualify for costly welfare and entitlement programs.
I have to ask again…where in the Constitution does it grant the federal government the authority to take from one state to give to another? It doesn't. Just as the states have no authority to levy taxes on other states themselves. Someone really needs to set these people straight!
Internet Sales Tax Is a State Money Grab
Amy Payne – The Foundry
Why are states so eager to collect taxes on Internet sales?
In short, because they could grab money from other states.
Heritage legal expert David Addington lays it out:
Like the money-hungry federal government, many state governments have financial and political interests in getting their hands on more and more money to grow their governments. It is not surprising that many of those state governments find out-of-state businesses to be lucrative and politically easy targets for tax legislation.
Addington explains how this would work. Take, for example, a company whose workforce and warehouses are in New Hampshire. This company has no contacts with Illinois other than taking remote sales orders over the Internet.

Residential Property
OPINION: My wife and I are in the market to buy our first home. In the mobius strip of life this places us in competition with people of a similar age as well as downsizers and property investors, which hardly seems fair.
We've stopped looking several times after becoming disenchanted with the market or our own financial security (mostly my fault), but the lure of a new Property Press every Wednesday never fails to pull us back into the routine of open homes, ums, ahhs and number crunching.
As a first home-buyer you quickly learn you can't have everything and some things, such as internal garaging or a flat space for backyard cricket, are well beyond your grasp. Instead, you find yourself entering houses yellowed and reeking from past occupants and wondering if the smoking hastened their departure for a better place (Heaven rather than Hataitai).
I wish I'd written a column about the day we first started looking. I'd be able to refer back to it now and say with certainty how long we've been searching and what my expectations were in those boyish days.
How many Sundays have we spent peering beneath houses in search of insulation, inspecting tumbledown garden sheds, leaping over disconcerting puddles on footpaths and strange mounds in the carpet with the voice of Project Runway's Tim Gunn ("Make it work") ringing in our heads?
Long before I bought a ticket to the first-home-buyer circus, I wrote a short story about a couple whose differences became so apparent during the search for a house that they stopped talking to each other and only ever saw each other at open homes.
While Marisa and I are still on talking terms, the hunt has illuminated a few differences between us. Where I see quirks and character, she sees hassle and risk. Where she sees modern and classy, I see cold and soulless. Where I see a decent-sized office for me to write, she sees a guest bedroom with a desk in the corner.
The hunt has been time consuming and demoralising but there is something fantastic about being allowed inside the houses of strangers to open wardrobes, flick light switches and cast aspersions on their choice of curtains.
Every time I pass a bookshelf, I survey the titles and make judgments about the owner. Sadly, books by New Zealand authors are all too rare and I've never seen a copy of A Man Melting in my search (although based on the sales figures and the number of households in Wellington the probability of finding my book in a given home is about 0.4 per cent).
Every so often I come across a Your Weekend on a coffee table or in a magazine rack, but I have resisted the urge to turn to the back page to see if someone has given me a moustache or devil horns.
Eventually a first-home buyer will hit that sweet spot where your expectations have been sufficiently lowered and the amount you're prepared to pay has been stretched to its limit. Then it's time for the fun to really begin. Or as I call it, the "Not So Tender Process".

Men's Red River Hoops: Looking Ahead
Lions Big Guns Aiming for Big Wins
WAXAHACHIE, Texas -- The Red River Athletic Conference, always a respected league nationally, could be in the spotlight all season. With two teams ranked in the NAIA's top four, and four squads rated in the Top 40, this could be a red-letter season for the 12-team basketball conference.
New member, LSU-Shreveport, and perennial power Texas Wesleyan University, are the RRAC flagship carriers. Texas College and Our Lady of the Lake University are among the teams receiving votes. The race for the men's basketball championship ought to attract a lot of attention over the next nine weeks.
SAGU will host the RRAC Tournament, March 3-5
Southwestern Assemblies of God University, who hope to make noise themselves, will host the Red River tournament during March 3-5. Only the top eight clubs qualify.
This year, however, #1 in the nation could be on the line during the single-elimination event!. Plus, the games played in the Sheaffer Full Life Center during the tourney will be broadcast in high definition by SAGU Sports Live.
LSU-Shreveport, ranked #2 in the most recent NAIA Coaches Poll, is the lone unbeaten team. The Pilots are 11-0 overall and are in a three-way tie atop the Red River with a 4-0 mark. Texas Wesleyan, 11-1 and ranked #4, just suffered a 72-64 setback on December 30 at the University of St. Thomas. The UST Celts are 7-8.
Texas College has won all four of their league games and bring a 6-4 mark into 2011. Wiley College is fourth at 3-1 in the RRAC and 7-6 in all games. There are three teams knotted with 2-2 conference records, including Our Lady (6-5), Paul Quinn College (7-5) and Jarvis Christian College (5-8).
SAGU (3-6), Bacone College (6-5) and University of the Southwest (6-5) are in eighth place with 1-3 records. Langston University (0-9) and Huston-Tillotson University (0-13) have yet to get untracked at 0-4.
This season teams will play 22 conference games, so the race will be longer than ever. Here are the current standings and a summary of the dozen who are in the hunt.
Red River Athletic Conference
LSU-Shreveport | 4-0 | 11-0 | 87.9 - 69.2 | .495 - .403 | 43.7 - 35.7 | 7.7 - .378 | .630 |

Teams are listed in the order they are on the RRAC website. www.RedRiverConference.com.
Key: Shooting Percentage is for that team and their combined opponent's pct. Rebounds per game for each team and how many rebounds opponents average against them. 3PG is Three-Point field goals made per Game, and their shooting percentage beyond the arc. FT% is each team's combined total.
LSU-Shreveport Pilots
Head Coach: Chad McDowell. Last Year: 28-6, 14-4 (GCAC). Home Gym: The Dock.
Team: The Pilots are the best shooting team in the RRAC and have scored 80 or more in 8-of-11 games. The guard-oriented team is second to Our Lady in points per game at 87.9. Only Texas Wesleyan rebounds the ball better than the up-tempo Speedboats.
Players: Four score in double figures, led by Eric Young, a 6'3 guard from Houston. He scores 15.0 ppg and yanks down 7.1 boards per game. Derrick Parker, a 6'7 forward from Minden, La, is the hub at the Pilots' helm, scoring 14.7 as well as their athletic rebounding leader. His 9.7 rpg avg. is third best in the league. He has also rejected 15 shots. Corey Bingham, a 6'3 guard, averages 14.4 ppg and 3.4 assists per game and has stroked 28 three-pointers at a 43% accuracy rate. Bingham's hometown of Lynn, Mass., is north of Boston. Brance Davenport has 21 treys, a 13.0 ppg avg., is riding a 10-game double-figures streak and has sunk 94% of his FT's. Guard Greg Shyne adds 8 ppg.
Points of Interest: Pilots have won 89% of their home games over past seven seasons. McDowell brings a 182-53 career record in those years. Jake Greene is a deadly sniper, hitting 52% beyond the arc. He has 14 threes. LSUS plays 11 of their final 18 games in The Dock.
Texas Wesleyan Rams
Head Coach: Terry Waldrop. Last Yr: 24-10, 16-4. Sid Richardson Ctr.
Team: The beefed up Rams could be a Dodge truck rather than a mountain mammal with their fortified rebounders. Wesleyan easily has the Red River's best scoring and shooting defense and is +14 in grabbing caroms. Coupled with a power game inside and effective 3-ball guns, Waldrop has a solid unit.
Players: Seasoned veteran Jeremy Mayfield, a 6'10 banger out of Dallas, buckets 10.1 ppg and clutches 8.0 boards. The senior has swatted 18 shots. Ty Gough, at 6'9, 265, resides in the lane scoring 9.3 and gobbling up 8.4 boards per outing. Helping anchor the lane is 6'7 combo guard Jonathan Blake, who adds 10.9 ppg and 6.5 rpg. Roaming on the outside are a trio of guards, led by Philadelphia native Brian Wanamaker, a 6'3 senior who is fourth in the RRAC in scoring at 17.2. Bryce Hill, a 6'1 guard from Clovis, NM, has quietly netted 11.7 ppg. Along with Jeremy Smith, a 5'11 point guard from DeSoto, who averages 9.9 ppg, the Rams have a backcourt that has generated 29, 23 and 15 triples. Wanamaker is gunning them at .547 accuracy. Smith is second in the league in assists, facilitating teammates to the tune of 6.1 apg.
Points of Interest: The Rams have gone 2-2 against LSU-Shreveport the past two seasons; 1-2 at The Dock. They play there on January 10 before a Valentine's Night rematch in Ft. Worth. TWU has just eight home games in their final 18 dates. Wesleyan won the NAIA national championship following the 2005-06 season, in which they dropped their RRAC tourney opener to SAGU, then caught fire. The Rams went 5-0 in the national spotlight to win TWU's version of King of the Mountain.
Texas College Steers
Head Coach: Marquet Norfleet. Last Yr: 22-10, 15-5. Gus F. Taylor Gym.
Team: The Steers had great highs in 2010, winning seven straight and moving into the NAIA ranking. They blew a huge second half lead at Southwestern in a disheartening loss, and then rolled to the RRAC tournament title game by winning 9-of-11. Against Bacone in the final they lost a six point lead in a double overtime loss to end the season. They are hungry to avenge that finish but are rebuilding in some areas. In their 4-0 league start they have won three close games, which is a great sign.
Players: Having to replace Trey Manning at the point was a main focus during the offseason, though 5'10 Jamal Robertson (3.40 assists per game) is filling the void well. LaDarren Williams, who is 6'8 and from Arlington, Texas has upped his game this winter. The intimidating power forward is scoring 10.8 ppg and showing a shooters touch. But his real benefit is on the glass where he is averaging 8.2 boards and an NAIA-leading 3.60 blocks per game. Veteran forward Jacobie Bias 12.5 and guard Marshall Taylor 11.7, both at 6'4, are the top scorers.
Points of Interest: The Steers are eighth in three-points, but are #2 in the RR in free throw percentage. Defensively they are forcing 19.1 turnovers per game, which is fourth best. Nine of their final 19 games are at home. They have one critical stretch where 9-of-12 games are out of the Rose City.
Wiley College Wildcats
Head Coach: Andre Payne. Last Yr: 16-16, 10-10. Alumni Gym.
Team: The team from the Wonderland of Lights has shown the ability to light it up on offense. The Wildcats are fifth in the league in scoring (76.0 ppg) though much of it has come without relying on the 3-ball. Wiley is shooting well and are fifth in limiting opponents to make just 40% of their attempts. Plus, they are getting it done on the boards, where they yield just 38.2 per game. Their lone league loss was to Paul Quinn, 77-67, at home.
Players: Coach Payne has a quiver full of arrows on offense, though only one player is in double figures. Adrian Fontenot is eighth in the RRAC with a 15.4 scoring norm. The 6'5 forward, who calls Houston 'home,' is shooting 54% from the field and 73% from the foul line. Marquis Wright, a wiry 6'2 forward from Compton, Cal, is producing 9.6 ppg, while 5-foot-8 guard Freddie Haynes is tossing 9.0 ppg. Haynes and 6'3 Brandon Lott have each stroked 14 trifectas to lead the team.
Points of Interest: The Cats have won four of their last five games. Wiley has 10 players scoring over five ppg. The team needs to make hay while the sun shines this month, during a nine-game stretch where seven are in Marshall. They are followed by six consecutive away games.
Paul Quinn College Tigers
Head Coach: Marco Borne. Last Yr: 6-22, 3-17. The Tiger's Den.
Team: These Tigers get after it on defense, yielding 70.2 ppg (third best behind TWU and LSUS) while holding enemy shooters to 38% from the floor (second only to TWU) and surrender only 36 rebounds. The team is growling on the boards, as only TWU hauls in more rebounds. Shooting on the foul line and outside the three-point barrier have hindered them so far.
Players: Paul Quinn is paced by junior forward Mitchell Thompson, who is fifth in the RRAC in scoring at 17.1 ppg, and second in snaring rebounds with 10.5 per game. He is making 62% of his field goal tries. Guard Edwin Opoku contributes 11.9 ppg and 3.6 assists per outing. Another guard, Eddrin McCain and forward Derrick Harris are scoring 10.4 and 8.5 ppg respectively. Harris has bagged 17 treys, making 57% of his attempts, while McCain has added 15 threes. Jamarcus Little, a forward, chips in 8.3 points and 7.4 boards. McCain is the Real McCoy at the point. His 7.75 assists per outing is the best in the country.
Points of Interest: The Tigers only league losses have come against LSU-Shreveport and Texas Wesleyan. PQC surely has to be considered the most improved or most pleasant surprise so far this season. They have already surpassed their 2009-10 win total.
Our Lady of the Lake University Saints
Head Coach: Russell Vanlandingham. Last Yr: 19-11, 16-4. Mabee Gym.
Team: The Saints of San Antonio were co-champions with Texas Wesleyan in their inaugural RRAC campaign. They were just a few points from winning the title outright, had it not been for a 2-point loss to Texas College, a four-point defeat at USW and a regular season-ending 87-85 setback at Texas Wesleyan, whom they routed by 19 earlier. OLLU had won 11-of-12 before the loss to the Rams, then dropped their opener in the RRAC tourney to Wiley. The season of promise also saw them hand LSU-Shreveport their first loss, by 11-points, after the Pilots started the year 9-0.
Players: Vanlandingham has been reloading the Blue Halos, who remain too hot for most defenses to handle, scoring 89 ppg. Streak shooting Robert Martinez, a 6-foot guard from Houston, is Our Lady's next top point producer at 11 ppg. Brazilian guard, Ricardo Zanini, at 6'6, scores 9.8 ppg while Eddie Ortiz, a six-footer, buckets 8.8. Ortiz has 28 triples, Martinez 21 and Zanini 19 treys.
Points of Interest: OLLU is averaging 7.5 three-pointers per contest, current third in the RR. A year ago they were #1 in the nation making 8.7 threes per game. The Saints are forcing 25 turnovers per game, which leads the league. Their defense, otherwise, has been more porous than desired.
Jarvis Christian College Bulldogs
Head Coach: Keith McKinnon. Last Yr: 3-26, 2-18.
Team: Rebuilding and posting more wins than last winter already. The Bulldogs are knocking down 6.4 3-bombs so far, but are 9th in overall shooting accuracy. In committing 20 turnovers a game, they one of three teams making 20+ miscues (OLLU, TxC). On defense, however, the K9's are squeezing 18.2 turnovers from opposing offenses.
Players: Rashad Norman, a 5'11 guard out of Dallas, tops a balanced attack by registering 12.7 ppg. Another 5'11 performer is Brian Lockett, and 6'2 Sage Malone are both contributing 10.1 ppg. Anthony Crump, a 6-foot-5 inside presence from Western Michigan (Muskegon), nets 9.8 ppg, with Maurese Jackson, adding 9.0 ppg. Jackson is 6'7 and hails from Chicago. Crump has 24 threes, while Malone and Lockett each have drained 15 triples. Jackson and Crump are ripping down 5.5 and 5.4 rebounds per game.
Points of Interest: As recently as two seasons ago the Bulldogs were 26-8 and 14-4 in finishing second to Texas Wesleyan.
Bacone College Warriors
Head Coach: Alan Foster. Last Yr: 19-10, 12-8. Palmer Center.
Team: Led by MVP Ronnie Battle (24.5 ppg), Bacone won last year's RRAC Tourney to earn a berth in the NAIA national tournament. Minus the graduated Battle, the Warriors have labored to put points on the board, averaging just 71.8 ppg. They have countered by coaxing 19.8 turnovers on defense, rating second to Our Lady in forcing opponents to cough up the ball. It has translated in a 71.6 points allowed.
Players: Fueling the Warriors offense are a pair of guards; 6'2 junior James Scott and 5'11 senior Chad Tyler. Scott, of Gary, Indiana, is pouring in 15.8 ppg, while Tyler, of Houston, buckets 15.5 and has fired 27 treys. Jeff Ayisire has been a big addition. The 6'5 forward scores 9.1 ppg and leads the Tribe on the glass with 6.4 rpg. LaCharleston Tumblin, at 6'6, and Terrance Roby, a 6'8 beast in the paint, provide muscle and moxie inside.
Points of Interest: BC is one of six teams in the Red River to score more points than they yield. Coach Foster's Big Reds were 7-12 last season before reeling off 12 consecutive wins to win the RRAC tourney.
University of the Southwest Mustangs
Head Coach: Jerry Voight. Last Yr: 12-16, 10-10. Maddox SLC, The Stables.
Team: The Mustangs continue to be one of the league's most prolific scoring teams. They are doing that by making 45% of their shots, which, like their 77.9 ppg, is fourth best in the conference. USW's strength is winning the battle of the boards. The Ponies aren't forcing many turnovers (15.9) and are making a league low 4.2 three-pointers per game.
Players: One of the most dominating players in the Red River is Demetrius Evans. The 6'5 forward who hails from the Windy City, is a force to be reckoned with. Evans is netting 20.6 ppg by making 52% of his shots and has drawn 97 free throws, where he has converted 78%. He averages 6.7 rebounds per contest. Three others are averaging 10 ppg; guard Marvin Storey, Jr., 6'5 forward Reggie Matthews and Michael Darden, a 6'3 guard. Storey runs the Pony Express by dishing 5.0 dimes per game. Chris Avery, a 6-foot guard who calls Bellflower, Cal 'home,' adds 9.7 ppg while swishing 22 triples.
Points of Interest: The Mustangs blew a double-digit lead in a loss at SAGU, fell by four at Paul Quinn and were on the wrong side of a 101-100 decision against OLLU. Last year they won 9-of-11 in midseason, yet had a pair of chilling skids, dropping eight in a row and finished the season falling in 8-of-9 matches.
Southwestern Assemblies of God University Lions
Head Coach: Dr. Jerry Boone. Last Yr: 13-21, 8-12. Sheaffer Full Life Ctr.
Team: SAGU is sixth in scoring (75.6), making up for 38% shooting by knocking down 7.9 trifectas per game (17th nationally) and have cashed in on 77% of their trips to the charity stripe. In making 213-of-275 FT's, they lead the NAIA. The Lions are pressuring opposing guards, wringing 17.7 turnovers. Their Achilles heal has been in overall team rebounding. SAGU is 12th with their average of 35.1 boards per game and 12th in allowing opponents 44.9 rpg.
Players: The Purple Pride have both the leading scorer in the RRAC in 6'1 junior guard Ronald Horne (21.1 ppg), a Waco native, and 6'5 forward Duce Ward, who leads the entire NAIA with 13.1 caroms per game. Ward is also totaling 12.9 ppg. Horne is the playmaker, distributing three helpers per game. Matt Allbritton, a 6'5 guard/forward, and Jared Gibson, a 6'3 guard, are three-point marksmen who are averaging 12.6 and 11.6 ppg respectively. Horne and Gibson have triggered 23 three-balls, with Allbritton wristing 19. Peter Dutton, a 6'4 guard, has been activated, and joins Craig Grigsby by adding 17.0 and 8.8 ppg. Dutton jacked 5-of-9 trifectas in his first game.
Points of Interest: The Cats have five players who are good over 70% of the time when shooting free throws. In 2005-06 the Lions earned their first NAIA tournament berth when they finished second in the RRAC tourney.
Langston University Lions
Head Coach: Greg Webb. Last Yr: 8-18, 6-14. C.F. Gayles Fieldhouse.
Team: Laying a new foundation at Langston is Coach Webb's season game plan. The Lions have narrowly missed four victories, losing in single digit setbacks, including a double overtime, one-point defeat against Wiley. LU is seventh in stroking three-balls, making 6.3 per outing. They are getting outboarded by nearly seven rebounds a game. Perhaps a contributing factor to their early season woes has been meshing in a large cast of new players.
Players: After their top four scorers, the Lions depth hasn't produced as much offense as needed. Eric Harris, a 6'3 forward from E. St. Louis, Illinois, and 6'5 forward Curtis Thompson (Houston) are setting the pace with 14.3 and 14.0 ppg. Bayshon Payne and 6'7 Brooklyn, NY product Anthony Jones are adding 10.9 and 10.0 ppg respectively. Thompson and Payne have each made 14 threes. Jones is grabbing 7.1 boards, with Harris pulling down another 6.7.
Points of Interest: To right their ship in January, Langston has a tough road to hoe. Seven of their nine games this month are away from the friendly confines of the Gayles Fieldhouse.
Huston-Tillotson University Rams
Head Coach: Elwood Plummer. Last Yr: 12-16, 12-8. Mary E. Branch Gym.
Team: Putting the clamps on enemy offenses is the focused area needing growth for the Rams. HTU is producing only 11.1 turnovers per game, while making over 19 miscues. A positive has been the club's ability to tickle the twine from beyond the arc to the tune of 7 treys per contest. Coming up short in rebounds, 42.4 for opponents to 38.6 for the Rams.
Players: Tillotson has two hoopsters in double figures on offense. James Black, a 6'2 senior guard from Killeen, Texas, leads the troops with 17.9 ppg. That ranks him #3 in the RRAC. Black tops the team in threes with 22. He also lays claim to 5.0 rebounds per night. Jerald Ardoin adds 12.4 ppg. The 6'6 junior forward out of Beaumont, Tx has a 7.6 rpg average, which rates #8 in the league. Rex Kyles III and Ardoin each have 15 triples.
Points of Interest: Plummer is the conference's newest head coach. His first year at the helm brings a big challenge of rebuilding a Rams team that tied for fourth last year. Their record is quite deceiving as eight of their losses have been by less than 10 points, five of them by 5-or-less.

Please tell Sens. Hutchison and Cornyn you don't appreciate their failure to look out for teachers, police officers, and firefighters.
Write your Senators--they voted against working people again today. This is what the Wall Street protests are about--pay attention to what is happening in our country.
Hey commongood, this type of stimulus just kicks the can down the road for a year. It only funds "teachers, police officers and firefighters" salaries for one year. Then what? Well, I can tell you. Their jobs will be cut after a year because the money is gone. Entities such as school districts and local municipalities don't have the ability to print money out of thin air to pay these people after the federal dollars run out so they do what they must - layoff.
The bill was killed because it's a redux of Stimulus I which was an utter failure by most reasonable people's standards. But hey, according to the liberal credo, if it didn't work the first time around, let's try it again!!!

'Miss Universe' hits all-time ratings low
UPDATED: These ratings aren't going to win any beauty contests: NBC's presentation of the 60th annual Miss Universe Pageant hit an all-time Nielsen low.
Even with those semi-topless promotional photos of pageant contestants on the Internet, the Donald Trump-produced contest was down 10% in the ratings from last year's telecast, which was held on a Sunday.
Miss Universe was seen by 6.1 million viewers and garnered a 1.9 rating among adults 18-49. NBC pointed out this is the network's best ratings in the time period all summer and that the show did not decline among total viewers. A special "Minute to Win It" (5.3 million, 1.6) opened the night.
ABC's "Bachelor Pad" (5.8 million, 2.0) appeared to stabilize after last week's sizable drop, rebounding a tenth of a rating point. Audiences continued to fall off before "Dating in the Dark" (3.7 million, 1.4).
Fox had "Lie to Me" (5.1 million, 1.8), on par with last week.

Great approach of the owners of apartment, nice and peacefull accommodation, beautiful nature, sufficient equipment, pleasant environment
Really great accommodation for a reasonable price and strongly recommended.
The floor was cold despite the fact that we switched on heating. We would appreciate warm slippers and enabling heating few hours before the visit :)
Von der Buchung bis zur Abreise war alles perfekt. Es ist eine schöne kleine Wohnung mit viel Platz.Da stört das kleine Bad nicht. Wir bekamen sogar frische Eier von den freilaufenden Hühnern. :-)
excellente relation qualité-prix
salle de bains un peu improvisé
Wir waren vollens zufrieden mit der Unterkunft. Das saubere Apartment bietet viel Platz für eine größere Familie (3 Kinder). Die Vermieter sind sehr bemüht und überraschten uns mit diversen netten Extras (z.B.: frische Eier aus eigener Produktion oder selbstgepflückten Wiesenblumen ...). Auch die Lage, egal ob per Auto oder Zug, ist gut. Zur Bootsanlegestelle (Traunseerundfahrt) ist es nur ein kurzer Fußweg.
