-- commander in chief how about fund raiser in chief.
The rise of the president's permanent campaign vibrant and already showing President Obama -- held more reelection fund raisers in the last five presidents combined.
And guess what all on the taxpayer dime Gretchen Hamel is the director of public notice so -- look look at these numbers is it really is astonishing 58.
How many tell compared other presents -- it's not just bigger by a little bit it's bigger by a lot can we see those numbers.
-- so it's like current Jimmy Carter held for.
-- We talk about an above all strategy.
This is an above -- strategy to get reelected in says that this president has really -- getting reelected -- had to have some basic responsibilities is being president.
And of course you know it's paying Hopkins is getting lots of balascak a look at those numbers are pretty shocking as well and it shows just that how far behind the Republicans might -- Yeah ended to comment on this it was earlier this year that his advisor who -- saying that they can potentially had the billion dollar mark.
It at 191.
There's a long ways to go to get a -- yeah this is it a little this point for them despite their best efforts are not getting the numbers they expected Obama at a 196 million.
Romney at 88 of course this doesn't count the pacs and now acts are critically important here and doesn't have a -- and it also doesn't cattle with the unions are going to be spending this year and that's the key component.
-- the -- -- what's super pac spent I mean those numbers can be a lot larger than what we see spent in the total campaign.
Well you know what's interesting about this is sometime ago back in 07 Obama was saying that we need open god or man -- -- election camp so this should be out out -- Here's woody -- said back in 2007.
My first day as president -- -- launched the most sweeping ethics reform in American history.
We will make government more open more accountable and more responsive to the problems of the American people.
You know I don't -- that -- and well I think isn't just another example of him saying one thing and doing another heat you know has -- the Wall Street.
He is taken money from Wall Street he has talked about the super pacs and how damaging they are then he's in his administration officials to support those super -- speaking at third.
Some of the things he's done lately I have been too thrilled about like not approving the Keystone Pipeline that saw a lot of jobs there that just went away when the president nixed that idea.
So he's trying to -- -- to them today here's what he said.
In the congress would rather put pure -- to work rebuilding America.
And ask millionaires and billionaires to live without massive new tax cuts on top of -- one they've already got.
So here we go class warfare what do you make of it.
Well the president will be heating up his campaign his began in the unions are critical they always saying -- -- -- start out talking to your base.
You talk to the middle -- come back to your base.
He's setting out his -- he's starring Anthony -- that the unions or their friend that they're gonna turn out and not only did they not -- keystone which is something that the unions wine.
The other print -- Colombia free trade agreement other free trade agreements with the unions have been fighting against for years.
Today we talked a lot about his new campaign called forward he's gonna video -- took a look at that.
You know there's a lot of debate about the numbers he's using whether they're accurate or not -- whether they really tell the whole story of that what's gone on in this economy.
We've how do you analyze is this really appealing do you think people are gonna stand up and -- -- yeah.
I love that campaign slogan yeah I.
I don't now because it and allow people say well no we're not going forward we're going back towards -- we've just been in neutral and some people feel like they -- in park for the past few years.
So right here in part if you don't -- year checked.
You know your check increasing your savings increasing the need don't feel like you're moving forward sound to be true here at -- -- what page are on fire right now because -- -- stock market.
Is defying all expect now -- even though the economy is going nowhere with a 2.2 percent growth rate.
You know unemployment still above 8% week it -- to get any traction there.
Yet the stock market on fire you know if -- the president I might try to play that up a little -- let say that's due to my policy again IA that's -- deadly pending he should be talking on talking more about less about job don't.
Don't put -- this on -- Republicans seem to take that same token at the advice when it comes to communicating.
Don't let this right on jobs along the flooded were let right on the total economy.
Because you never know what jobs are gonna -- at they're gonna go up or they're gonna go down so you don't want that to be the one -- that I judging people by mostly punk.
Last day and it has had an intact and not good news that Chris thanks for coming on and they all have great to have you on the show we really thank.

By Michael Hill The Associated Press
ALBANY, N.Y. - Baby food used to have an image as stable - and bland - as a jar of strained peas. And its target market was limited to, well ... babies.
No more.
Old-school glass jars of applesauce are still around, but these days they share shelf space in the baby food aisle with curious (and often organic) combinations like zucchini, banana and amaranth (it's a grain) packed in brightly colored pouches intended to be squished and slurped by consumers with little - and not so little - hands.
"What we try to do is engage them, stimulate all of their senses," says Paul Lindley, founder of Ella's Kitchen baby food, a pioneer in the use of pouch-style packaging. "Not just their taste sense, not just putting a spoon in their mouth or a pouch into their mouth ... but to try to stimulate all their other senses."
Welcome to the world of premium baby foods, part of a $1.5 billion industry that's no longer just about babies. Babies don't generally care much about food packaging. But toddlers, older children and convenience-driven parents do.
Pouches have allowed baby food makers to broaden the appeal of their products beyond the traditional baby food years. Maureen Putman, chief marketing officer for the Hain Celestial Group, maker of organic brand Earth's Best, says pouches have helped fuel 11 percent growth at Earth's Best even as the U.S. birth rate declines.
"It's allowing us to age up. Where moms may have stopped baby food at 9 to 12 months, the pouches have really helped extend the shelf life of baby food," she says. "We see growth for a long time to come."
Parents like Lindsey Carl, of Clarksville, Tenn., make the case, saying pouches are a less messy way to feed her 22-month-old daughter and 10-month-old son simultaneously. "They don't require a spoon, which makes on-the-go easy," she says. "You don't have to worry about bringing a spoon: 'Where do I wash the spoon? Where do I put the spoon?' "
And the premium baby food world is an increasingly crowded one, with other major players including Plum Organics, Sprout, the organic baby food company founded by Food Network star Tyler Florence, and even long established baby food maker Gerber.
"We're excited about pouches, and we're the No.1 in the segment, and we want to continue to grow it," said Aileen Stocks, Gerber's head of integrated marketing.
Not everyone is cooing over pouches, though.
One common criticism is that in some cases a pouch will read something like "spinach and apples," giving an impression of a vegetable-rich meal even if the ingredient label lists more apples than spinach. More pointedly, some critics claim that parents tend to over-rely on pouches.
Dina Rose, a sociologist who writes the "It's Not About Nutrition" blog, said while pouches can be a beneficial "bridge" to fresh fruits and vegetables, they are no substitute.
"It lulls people into thinking that they've done their fruit-and-vegetable job. So they're done," Rose said. "And it gets them out of what they think of as the struggle to get their kids to eat fruits and vegetables."

I disagree I think its a LOGICAL question.
Hmmm so how do you think the money in your pocket gets it your pocket?
Who creates that money?
Who controls that money?
Perhaps so, do you know from personal experience or are you tapped into the poor white community?
Poor White people get shitted on every day in this country.
Question do you think being white or non white has an effect on a persons chances to be poor?
By the percentages, is there a higher ratio of poor whites or poor non whites in the world?
How did some get to be poor ad remain poor while some were able to build and acquire wealth?
Could the nonwhites live wherever they wanted?
Were they included under the Homestead act?
Could they live in Levittown ?
Were there Levittowns all across the nation?
When they surmounted the odds and built "a black wall street in Oklahoma, what happened ?
Did the non whites who generated what equates to trillion of dollars via slave labor get to keep that money?
Who received that money?
Who still benefits from that money?
Who's faces are one that money you know the money thats actaully worth something?
Who controls the VALUE of that money?
How about money acquired through Debt? Which countries are indebted to whom.?
How did it get that way?
I would rather be a person that lived under a system of justice. Now if you ask some poor white coal miners in West Viriginia that question I suspect the answer you receive would surprise you.Which would you rather be, a poverty stricken White person or an upper-middle class Black person?

Published: 10/25/2012 11:17 PM | Last update: 10/26/2012 10:22 AM Joyfully playoff-boundHaven takes Trinity downHAVEN - The last time Haven was in the playoffs, a future Major League Baseball player was on its roster.Is it serendipitous then that at the same time Andy Dirks is playing for the Detroit Tigers in the World Series, that the Wildcats are back in the postseason for the first time in more than eight years?
Running back Trae' Regier delivered a career day, blocking a punt that was recovered for a touchdown in the first quarter and running for 196 of his game-high 279 rushing yards after intermission. Highlighted by his scoring jaunts of 61 and 53 yards in the second half, he scored all three of the Wildcats' offensive touchdowns and gave his team the edge it needed. "That's what you expect out of a young man like that," Self said. "He's a team leader and we expect him to step and lead when we need him to. In big moments, that's what defines big-time players like that. He rose to the occasion." But as gaudy as his long-gainers were, the blocked punt was undoubtedly the biggest play of the game. After failing to move the chains on its first possession, Trinity set up to punt at its own 20. Regier busted through the line and got a piece of the ball, sending it bouncing into the end zone where senior Cyris Ragoiza recovered it for the game's first touchdown. The momentum swung in Haven's favor and stayed on its side for the rest of the game. "Once we got the momentum we just kept going and going," Regier said. Senior quarterback/kicker Tim Hendrixson booted two field goals, one on either side of the blocked punt, to stake Haven to a 3-0 lead and later extend its edge to 13-0. Trinity got on the board on Spencer Truman's 24-yard field goal just past the seven-minute mark in the first quarter on a drive that only survived because of Christian Christenson's 26-yard run on a fake punt. But Trinity never found rhythm on offense. There were penalties - six in the first half and five in the second - and fumbles. First on the blocked punt but Nathan Eisenbarth coughed the ball up and to set up Hendrixson's first field goal. "We never got our inside game, between the tackles, going," Trinity coach Brad Hollinger said. "They were gap-sound, they were moving around a lot. "It comes down to blocking and tackling and they did a better job of it. That's it, flat out." The second was more costly and put the Celtics' squarely behind the eight-ball. Starting from their own 17-yard line on their fourth possession, a high snap went over Celtics' quarterback Michael Doeden's head, bounced into the end zone and ended up a safety after Doeden recoverd the ball. The Wildcats added the first offensive touchdown of the game on their ensuing drive. Regier capped a nine-play, 58-yard drive with a five-yard scoring plunge to give Haven its 22-3 halftime edge. A scoreless third quarter gave way to Regier's rushing frenzy. Though Regier had busted his longest run of the day - a 78-yard sprint up the gut - late in the third quarter, a fumble by fullback Zach Hendrixson on third-and-goal spoiled the effort. But Regier, who was caught by Trinity's Spencer Truman, got his revenge and was not to be caught on his final two carries. His 61-yard run gave Haven its first score since late in the second quarter and his 53-yard scamper - both runs were off of double reverses - made it a 35-3 game. Trinity notched its only touchdown of the game on a 32-yard strike from Doeden to Christenson with 2:37 left in the game. But in only served to round out the scoring. What was done was done - Haven (5-4) was headed to the playoffs and Trinity (5-4) saw its season end. "It's too painful to take you through it," Hollinger said. "We just got out-coached, we got outplayed, we got out-hustled. We just got beat." Haven did have its share of troubles against Trinity. On top of losing 85 yards on 11 penalties, Haven also lost Tim Hendrixson when heleft the game with a wrist injury in the second quarter. Senior Eric Shive stepped in to replace him and managed the game. "I'm so proud of him," Self said of Shive. "That's a tough job to do as a senior, to play the backup position. He plays every spot in that flex offense." Shive nearly left the game after taking a shot to his back while making a tackle in the third quarter. But he returned on Haven's next possession and kept the Wildcats' run game - which pounded out 369 yards on 44 carries - clicking. Trinity's offense was anemic for most of the game. They managed just 95 yards on the ground on 32 totes and completed six of 15 passes for 52 yards as Haven dialed up its pressure. "We wanted to be more aggressive defensively and come after them," Self said. "We had our read keys and tried, I don't know if you want to say risky, but we wanted to trust our read keys, stop second-guessing things and play down hill harder. We were able to do that." For Haven, no victory is sweeter than this one. Not only did it secure a winning record, it gave them redemption for last year when they lost another win-or-go-home on the last week of the season, 35-25 to Pratt. "I am so humbled right now," Regier said. "It's truly a blessing."
Haven will travel to face Hillsboro in the first round of the 3A playoffs on Tuesday for a 7 p.m. game.

I must admit that since Major Garrett went over to the dark side, I have been hoping that he might see just a bit of the light that Rush shines on the Marxist in Chief.
He doesn´t know how to negotiate, it affects about half of the population, incurable (negotiation challenged)!
I was hoping he´d asphyxiate.Negotiate, no.
I was glad to see Major Garrett. I keep hoping that some of these non-Chris Matthews people would one day start to reproduce.Rush is right as usual.

Time to stop calling Islam a religion of peace. IT IS NOT!
Islam is the only mainstream religion in the world still spreading by militant means.
The lesson is: freedom of speech does not exist in Islam. A Coptic Christian teacher, Bishoy Kamel will be spending the next six years in an Egyptian prison, and may face danger for the rest of his life for allegedly posting insults against the Prophet Mohammed on his Facebook page.
He was sentenced to three years for insulting the Prophet, two for the president, and one for his accuser.
After he was sentenced and led from court, Muslim protesters tried to attack him, pelting his police car with rocks as he was carried away to jail.
There are two facts that become immediately apparent. The first is that freedom of speech does not exist in Islamic societies where one can face punishment and persecution for verbal or written criticisms.
The second fact is that Islam, at last of the variety that is practiced by violent protestors around the world, cannot in any way be labeled a "religion of peace."
Other religions are typically criticized and satirized in free society. Those acts of free speech are considered offensive to their faithful, but it is only Muslims who react so violently to criticisms of their prophet.
To illustrate this point, this week a satirical American news publication (we will not mention its name) published an incredibly offensive and pornographic image depicting religious figures including Jesus, Moses, Ganesha, and the Buddha and made the editorial point that nobody was killed over the depiction. Likely sickened-yes, but harmed, no.
Militant Islam is more prevalent than many realize. The recent enlistment of an 8-year-old child in the cause of "jihad" in Australia, provides evidence of this.
Islamic leaders around the world must make a decision. This decision is must be made by the leaders of every sect and community within Islam. Either they condemn the violence and actively work towards protecting all, even those who would criticize them, or they face the world's judgment as they themselves nullify any claim to being a peaceful religion.
This includes those who sit silently, as their brothers and cousins throw stones at imprisoned bloggers.
How interesting to note that Islam is the only mainstream religion on the planet still spreading by militant means.

KarlVDH & David,
Just for your information, my Father is a Muslim. He provided me with 2 Quran's to read. I saw all this vile information in the Quran and Hadith's, they're other book. I cross-referenced it with the second Quran and it tallied up 100%. and yes, I have Muslim friends. When I showed them this vile book, they remained speechless. The racism is horrendous! and I did provide all the quotes from online Quran's, Hadith's and even from Wikipedia in regards to what some scholars have said. The Muslims who are peaceful and are no harming other, Muslim's like my Father are NOT REAL MUSLIMS!
Yes there is some vile stuff in the old testament, hence why Jesus came and scrapped the bad things in the New testament such as rape and 'eye for an eye'. The Quran doesnt have a old and new testament or equivalent in there book. Also my Mother in law who is from Iran and converted to Catholicism confirmed what Im saying is true. -

Rafael, did you even bother to cross-reference your quotes with the Quran? Your quotes don't correspond with the passages you reference.
And since when did the Catholic Church stop condemning non-believers to Hell? It seems like they used to make a big deal about that. Wasn't that the rationale behind the Crusades, the extermination of the Cathars, the religious wars fought against the Protestants, and the summary execution of indigenous people all over the world? Wasn't the church trying to save their souls? -

With respect, Rafael... I've read it too, and something you're ignoring is that our own Bible contains passages which are just as bloodthirsty, violent, racist, exclusionary and anti-woman.
If you dispute that, I'd call your attention to the Old Testament. Calls for genocide, rape, assasination, enslavement of the conquered, ethnic exclusion and racial cleansing abound. I can provide passages if you wish.
The point is, WE interpret thoe passages, usually, as not literal; not necessarily instructions for us, here, now and today.
And you know what? Neither do the vast VAST majority of peace-loving, rational Muslims around the world.
Having read the Koran, I'd challenge you to spend some time among Muslims and learn about the PEOPLE and how they really practice their religion before taking some verses from here and there and making them into a bigger wal to separate us as people.
If we're ging to sit here and claim the Jihadists andd terrorists are representatives of what Islam is really about, we have to then examine our OWN faith's history of violence and explain why what we choose to define them by doesn't apply to ourselves.
Clearly, we aren't a faith represented by greedy crusaders, or bloody inquisitions. I don't think anyone here would argue that we should allow the whole of the Christian faith to be defined by the behavior of the Ku Klux Klan.
Nor should we allow Islam to be defined by the radicals and maniacs who have usurped and coopted the public face of what IS a religion of peace.
We, particularly Catholics, should be at the vanguard of those brave souls seeking common ground and standing with those who stand against the Jihadists. We should NOT be the ones further dividing humanity. -

Let's clear this up once and for all: The Quran (and I am talking because I have read the book), is violent, racist & a religion that completely benefits men, and no women. I will list proof, along with the links provided so you can verify what I am saying. This text is in the Quran & he Hadith's - another one of there books:
An-Nisa 4.34
"Men are (meant to be righteous and kind) guardians of women because God
has favored some more than others and because they (i.e. men) spend out of
their wealth. (In their turn) righteous women are (meant to be) devoted
and to guard what God has (willed to be) guarded even though out of sight
(of the husband). As for those (women) on whose part you fear ill-will and
nasty conduct, admonish them (first), (next) leave them alone in beds (and
last) BEAT or separate them (from you). But if they obey you, then seek
nothing against them. Behold, God is most high and great.
Ishaq 234
I heard the Apostle say: 'Whoever wants to see Satan should look at
Nabtal!' He was a black man with long flowing hair, inflamed eyes, and
dark ruddy cheeks.... Allah sent down concerning him: 'To those who annoy
the Prophet there is a painful doom."
Surat [9:61]
"Gabriel came to Muhammad and said, 'If a black man comes to you his heart
is more gross than a donkey's"
Surat Al-Imran Ayat (3:85)
Whoever prefers a religion other than Islam, it shall definitely not be
accepted from him; and in the Hereafter, he shall be among the losers.
(So it says basically only Muslims go to heaven - Jews and Christians will
go to hell - what other meaning does 'loser' mean!? In Christianity, no
matter the religion of you lead a good pure generous life you will go to
[al-Bayyinah 98:6]
"Verily, those who disbelieve (in the religion of Islam, the Qur'aan and
Prophet Muhammad) from among the people of the Scripture (Jews and
Christians) and Al-Mushrikoon will abide in the fire of Hell. They are the
worst of creatures"
Anas bin Malik: Allah's Apostle said, "You should listen to and obey, your
ruler even if he was an Ethiopian (black) slave whose head looks like a
Ahmad ibn Abi Sulayman, the companion of Sahnun said, "Anyone who says
that the Prophet was black should be killed. Ibn Musa al-Yahsubi, Qadi
Abu Dharr reported: The Messenger of 'Allah (may peace be upon him) said:
When any one of you stands for prayer and there is a thing before him
equal to the back of the saddle that covers him and in case there is not
before him (a thing) equal to the back of the saddle, his prayer would be
cut off by (passing of an) ass, woman, and black Dog. I said: O Abu Dharr,
what feature is there in a black dog which distinguish it from the red dog
and the yellow dog? He said: O, son of my brother, I asked the Messenger
of Allah (may peace be upon him) as you are asking me, and he said: The
black dog is a devil. Sahih Muslim 4:1032
And on the day of resurrection you shall see those who lied against Allah;
their faces shall be blackened. Is there not in hell an abode for the
proud? - Qur'an 39:60
"Therefore, the Negro nation are, as a rule, submissive to slavery,
because [Negroes] have little [that is essentially] human and have
attributes that are quite similar to those of dumb animals, as we have
stated." - Ibn Khaldun, Muqaddimah
"beyond [known peoples of black West Africa] to the south there is no
civilization in the proper sense. There are only humans who are closer to

eat herbs and unprepared grain. They frequently eat each other. They

You obviously are ignorant of the basic teaching of Islam and of Mumammad. Islam is nothing but an totalitarian ideology with a veneer of religiosity. The Quran and the Hadith (the sayings and deeds of Muhammad) promote the conquest, death, and/or slavery for non-Muslims. Islam seeks the world-wide imposition of Sahria law. I urge you to educate yourself by reading Rober Spencer's two books: The Truth About Muhammad and The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam. You should also daily read Jihad Watch on the Internet to see how Islam is waging war in so many places on the planet and how the religious leaders are promotin jihad. Of course, this is in keeping with the history of the spread of Islam by violence; Islam is the only "religion" that does not have the Golden Rule. Do you know that Saint Lawrence of Brindisi led Christian armies against larger Muslim forces in Hungary in the 1600's. He was in front of the army with a crucifix. He was not even wounded, and the Christians were victorious. Saint John of Cupertino also led a Christian army against Muslims. We must resist Islam. -

@well: Catholics understand blasphemy as a denigration of holy things. We are against blasphemy because it insults God and degrades the blasphemer. To kill the blasphemer (or any handy Christian nearby) doesn't please God, but adds to the sin. We make reparation with extra prayers or penances on behalf of those who didn't know better. That spreads peace.
Christianity has never been a religion of strength, but one of humility, poverty, and oblation. Natural law supports property rights and the means of self defense, but such arms are not the right way to extend Christendom. The truth spreads by its own merits, expressed in myriad forms of love.
Finally, if "jihad" were being visibly waged around the world with violence and destruction, as a Muslim, I would do two things: I would strongly disavow those violent actions as inconsistent with my faith, and avoid putting their language on a placard for my 8-yr-old to carry, because the potential for misunderstanding is great.

@Bill Sr. very well said sir.
I predict that in this century there will be a war of terrible consequences. At some point, there will be a confrontation between the big powers, created by many different fronts.....oil, religion, power, food. It is not going to be pretty but I'm with you. Unless the U.S. comes back to its roots, Christianity, then your country will be in dire straits, along with all the rest of us Western countries. And I'm not sure the current president is the one to solve your problems. -

You're right Bill Sr., this will be labelled as hate-speech because that is exactly what it is. I don't know if you or the author of this diatribe are Catholic; but the Pope has been trying to quell these kind of hateful antics from both the Christian and Muslim world for sometime. Your rhetoric of warfare and swords...I think I can spot the lunatic ;-)

I just want to say that critisism and mocking are two different things. Critic is an academic thing while mocking is a childish one.

It's worth keeping in mind that Muslims consider any depiction of any prophet including Jesus and Moses blasphemy.
As for the whole Religion of peace thing "Peace through strength" is an ancient phrase and concept implying that strength of arms is a necessary component of peace.
In regards to the 8 year old girl speaking about "jihad" she was speaking about how children in Syria carried food and water to rebel forces.
Just saying....

Results of July Oil and Gas Lease Sale |
Bonus bids for a total of 32,180 acres (19,292 acres in North Dakota and 12,788 acres in South Dakota) at the Bureau of Land Management's July 12 oil and gas lease sale in Billings totaled $66,259,552.00. Two North Dakota parcels received the highest bid per acre of $8,800, which were submitted by Irish Oil and Gas of Bismarck, North Dakota, and Continental Resources of Williston, North Dakota. The highest single-parcel bid, submitted by Hess Corporation of Houston, Texas, was $6,217,800 for a 723-acre parcel in Williams County, North Dakota. All 111 parcels offered for lease received bids. Additional information regarding competitive sale lists, detailed results of sales or the leasing process is available by writing the Bureau of Land Management, 5001 Southgate Dr., Billings, Mont., 59101, by calling (406) 896-5004, or online at http://www.blm.gov/mt/st/en/prog/energy/oil_and_gas/leasing/leasesaleinfo.html. Oil and gas leasing is driven by consumer demand, and competitive oil and gas lease sales are conducted several times per year at BLM's Montana/Dakotas State Office. Receipts from federal oil and gas leases are shared with the state or county where the lands are located. All leases are issued for a 10-year term. Potential environmental effects that could result from exploration and development are analyzed before any leases are offered for sale. All leases are issued with conditions on oil and gas activities to protect the environment that can include limits on when drilling can occur or restrictions on surface occupancy. Once an operator proposes exploration or development on a BLM-issued lease, further environmental analysis under the National Environmental Policy Act is conducted to determine the site-specific need for various types of impact-limiting or mitigation measures. In addition, many operators routinely use Best Management Practices, such as remote monitoring of producing wells, to minimize surface impacts.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2012, activities on public lands generated $4.6 billion in revenue, much of which was shared with the States where the activities occurred. In addition, public lands contributed more than $112 billion to the U.S. economy and helped support more than 500,000 jobs. |

African-American parents' nutritional habits: Implications for the prevention of early childhood obesity.
Date: August 2009
Creator: Anderson, Andraya D.
Description: This research study addressed the nutritional beliefs and habits of African-American parents of children aged 3 to 6 years old. Both quantitative and qualitative data collection methods were employed. Quantitative data was collected via the Comprehensive Feeding Practices Questionnaire as well as a demographic questionnaire. Qualitative data was collected from oral interviews conducted by the researcher. Seventy-five parents or guardians participated in the study. Findings for the research questions revealed the participants' beliefs about nutrition directly correlated with food they provided for their children and most believed nutrition rather than genetics played a role in their child(ren)'s weight. Furthermore, parents from lower income families consumed more home cooked meals per week and those with higher incomes did not consume more fast food per week. Food intake restriction and control in feeding was similar among all participants, regardless of restriction and control in feeding was similar among all participants, regardless of education or income level. Suggestions for future research were included.

African Refugee Parents' Involvement in Their Children's Schools: Barriers and Recommendations for Improvement
Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community.
Date: December 2009
Creator: Githembe, Purity Kanini
Description: The purpose of this study was to examine involvement of African refugee parents in the education of their elementary school children. The setting of the study was Northern and Southern Texas. African refugee parents and their children's teachers completed written surveys and also participated in interviews. In the study's mixed-method design, quantitative measures provided data about parent involvement at home, parent involvement at school, frequency of parent-teacher contact, quality of parent-teacher relationship, parent endorsement of children's schools, and barriers to parent involvement. Qualitative data from the open-ended questions provided data on barriers and strategies to improve involvement. Sixty-one African refugee parents responded to the survey and also participated in an in-depth face-to-face or telephone interview. Twenty teacher participants responded to an online survey. Quantitative data gathered from the parent and teacher surveys were analyzed using frequency distributions and analyses of variance. Qualitative data were analyzed by summarizing and sorting information into different categories using Weft QDA, an open-source qualitative analysis software. From these data, I identified barriers to African refugee parent involvement in their children's schools, as well as challenges that teachers face as they try to involve African refugee parents. Results of analyses of variance revealed statistically significant differences ...

Children of teenage mothers: School readiness outcomes and predictors of school success.
Date: August 2008
Creator: Brown, Amber L.
Description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of teenage motherhood on the school readiness, literacy skills, and parental involvement of children participating in the Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters (HIPPY) early intervention program, as well as make recommendations for optimal outcomes. Study children were participants in HIPPY at five diverse, urban school districts. Using a mixed method design, this study examined the results of quantitative measures of children's school readiness, literacy skills, and parent involvement along with qualitative data collected through mothers' responses to two, open-ended questions related to their satisfaction with HIPPY. According to results of independent samples t-test, mean scores on school readiness and parent involvement measures were not statistically significantly different for the children of teenage mothers and the children of traditional age mothers. However, there were moderate effect sizes for parent involvement and physical development indicating some practical significance. Chi-square results of literacy skills indicated that the children of teenage mothers were almost twice as likely [c2 (1, N = 36) = 4.21, p < .05] to have literacy skills that were "not on grade level" according to scores on the TPRI/Tejas. Descriptive discriminant analysis (DDA) indicated that the multivariate relationship ...

Children's spiritual development: Analysis of program practices and recommendations for early childhood professionals.
Date: December 2009
Creator: Myers, Joyce Eady
Description: The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which faith-based preschools promote spiritual development in preschoolers. The participants in the study were faith-based early childhood teachers and administrators from seven states. Early childhood professionals representing 11 Christian faith traditions completed written surveys or online surveys. A total of 201 faith-based educators completed the survey; 20 respondents participated in semi-structured interviews. The concurrent triangulation mixed-method design provided data on 8 program dimensions which support children's spiritual development: prayer, Bible literacy, worship, building character, service opportunities, assessment, parental involvement and context. I analyzed quantitative data using descriptive and inferential statistics. All items were examined using mean, standard deviation, frequency, and percentages. Qualitative data gathered from semi-structured interviews were coded and analyzed using NVivo8® qualitative analysis software (QSR International, Inc., Cambridge, MA, http://www.qsrinternational.com). From this data I identified the extent to which faith-based preschool programs support children's spiritual development through the practices of prayer, Bible literacy, worship, building character, service opportunities, assessment, parental involvement and context. Data analyses revealed statistically significant differences in faith-based teachers' hours of training in children's spiritual development across all program practice dimensions. A key finding of the study was that training in children's spiritual development ...

Development of a proposed toddler caregiver training program for South Korea.
Date: May 2009
Creator: Kim, So-Yeon
Description: Based on the survey results of 150 South Korea toddler caregivers about training needs, I developed a relationship-based approach for a toddler caregiver training program. The training program was modified using suggestions provided by 6 South Korean professors, who were asked to review the program. Survey findings revealed that: (a) All participants (toddler caregivers) perceived that it is necessary for caregivers to attend training. However, most (72.2%) found that it was difficult to attend training programs more than 1 time per year because it was hard to find a substitute teacher (64%). Participants desired to attend training programs on toddler care because of the lack of in-service education (26%), curriculum (24%), and training programs (15.3%); (b) Caregivers who had the third-degree caregiver certification preferred to learn parent education more than child development. However, caregivers who had a higher degree of caregiver certification preferred to learn child development more than parent education; and (c) Caregivers who had more than 5 years of teaching experience preferred to learn about the teacher's role more than caregivers who had fewer than 4 years of teaching experience. Future studies need to evaluate the effect of this relationship-based training program for toddler caregivers in relation to ...

Date: December 2007
Creator: Liu, Huei-Chun
Description: The purposes of the present study are to: (a) describe the beliefs and practices of the US and Taiwan (TW) public and private kindergarten teachers regarding developmentally appropriate practice (DAP), (b) examine the group differences between the four groups of teachers, and (c) identify the salient factors related to the variability of developmentally appropriate beliefs and practice in these teachers. Three hundred and fifty-seven kindergarten teachers participated in the study. The group sizes were 123, 123, 57, and 54 for Taiwan private, Taiwan public, US private, and US public kindergarten teachers, respectively. A survey was used to collect data. Findings from this study showed: (a) Both the US and Taiwan kindergarten teachers highly endorsed beliefs about DAP; (b) US and Taiwan kindergarten teachers also held strong beliefs about developmentally inappropriate practices (DIP); (c) DAP activities occurred regularly in the classrooms; (d) developmentally inappropriate practice (DIP) activities also took place a lot although they were lower than the DAP activities; (e) the Taiwan teachers had higher beliefs about DAP and lower beliefs about DIP than the US teachers; (f) the US teachers reported both higher DAP and DIP activities than the Taiwan teachers; (g) there were no differences between public and ...

An Ecological Understanding of Teacher Quality in Early Childhood Programs: Implications and Recommendations
Date: May 2011
Creator: Macias-Brown, Armandina A.
Description: This research examined whether or not relationships exist between preschool teacher quality and parent involvement as indicated by the Hoover-Dempsey and Sandler Model of Parent Involvement Survey. Additionally, the study also considered family income and child membership in special education as predictors of parent involvement. The survey instruments included the Early Childhood Environmental Rating Scale, Revised (ECERS-R) and the Hoover-Dempsey and Sandler Parent Involvement Survey. A total of 306 parents across 35 preschool classrooms participated in the study. Effect sizes, beta weights and structure coefficients from a series of multiple regression analyses measured the relationship between variables. A regression equation comprised of teacher quality, family income and child membership in special education was statistically significant in predicting parent school-based involvement. In the school-based involvement model the predictors teacher quality and child membership in special education accounted for a greater percentage of variance than did family income. Teacher quality demonstrated a small, negative beta weight but accounted for the greatest amount of variance among the three predictors within the school-based parent involvement model. A negative relationship between teacher quality and school-based parent involvement suggested that as teacher quality improved, parents reported less involvement in school-based activities and events. Findings for special ...

Educating Young Children with Autism in Inclusive Classrooms in Thailand
Date: May 2008
Creator: Onbun-uea, Angkhana
Description: This study investigated what constitutes a teaching curriculum for students with autism in inclusive classrooms in Thailand. The researcher employed 3 qualitative methods: semi-structured interviews, document analysis of curricula and lesson plans, and nonparticipant observations. Six schools were selected as the sites. Participants for interview included 6 principals and 24 teachers. The researcher observed one inclusive classroom for each of the 6 selected schools. The study concentrated on 3 questions: (a) What contributes to appropriate instructional curricula to promote teaching of students with autism in inclusive classrooms in Thailand? (b) What teaching strategies improve the achievement and learning skills of students with autism in inclusive classrooms in Thailand? (c) What are the problems of curricula for teaching students with autism in inclusive classroom in Thailand? Key findings for the research questions were as follows: Common features of effective curricula for teaching students with autism in inclusive classrooms include opportunities, health care, specialized curriculum, students' individual needs and abilities, guidelines of teaching, teacher training and supervision, transition plan, parent involvement, tools/classroom environment, and students' class assignments. The teaching strategies include varying the teaching format (large group, small group, and one-on-one), teaching functional communication (giving direction, close-ended questions or open-ended questions), reinforce ...

Effectiveness of a Web-based course in facilitating the integration of technology into early childhood curricula.
Date: December 2007
Creator: Graham, Leticia
Description: Although technology is available and used in early childhood classrooms, little is known about what early childhood teachers believe about the use of technology and how technology is integrated into early childhood curricula. This study was designed to (a) determine the beliefs of early childhood teachers about technology integration into early childhood curricula and (b) describe the extent to which early childhood teachers integrate technology in their early childhood curricula. The participants included 39 prekindergarten teachers who volunteered to participate in a technology integration project. The treatment group accessed a Web-based technology integration training program and participated in two classroom observations, along with completing an attitudinal questionnaire pretest and posttest. The Prekindergarten Web-based Technology Integration Training included four modules each expanding the following themes: (a) national and state standards and guidelines for technology; (b) setting up a computer center; (c) integrating technology; (d) using the digital camera. The control group participated in two classroom observations without the benefit of the Web-based technology integration training program and completed the attitudinal questionnaire pretest and posttest. Results indicate that Prekindergarten teachers believe that technology can enhance a child's learning, but there was no statistically significant difference between the control and the treatment group.

What is really sad is that Nancy is an idiot and has no clue.
this woman ever think before she opens her mouth......people like pelosi are whats wrong with america......she is a disgrace
But look at where her district is. That explains everything.
Stupid comments are just a reflex with Nancy. It is a political version of Tourettes.
Class and lack thereof shows....every time.
A pig´s gotta oink.
I loathe the liberals. She´s an old, ugly, big mouthed lunatic who face barely moves when she speaks because of all the botox to help her "look young"... like THAT worked.Shut your pie hole Pelosi. You are a disgrace to women.
One of the saddest moments was when she entered the Senate.
I have seen pictures of her husband #7. He is movie star handsome. I wonder sometimes how he puts up with her stupidity.
About her husband....well, her father is most well connected, using that word in the Chicago style. Also, I would love to know how come I and most others on the Lucianne site, know more about the bill than most members of congress?
Jennifer Rubin and Nancy Pelosi...two birds of a feather when it comes to Conservatives in general and Jim DeMint in particular. They are both radical...Nancy is a raging, radical liberal and Jen Rubin is a radical, raging moderate.#9 Nancy´s husband stays with her because she brings home the political bacon and special perks for him to thrive in Califonia´s horrible business climate.
And not one single Republican in the Senate will defend DeMint. This is why they win the PR war.
Peloser is a classless act. She is the worst person in the democrat party. O is a close 1st or 2nd.
When you find yourself joining Nancy Pelosi in celebrating the departure of a conservative Republican, you´re probably not as severe a conservative as you think. I´m reminded of Captain Renault´s response after Rick rejects Yvonne in Casablanca: "How extravagant you are, throwing away beautiful women like that. One day they may be scarce." Principled conservative leaders are increasingly rare in the GOP, whereas we´re all stocked up with moderate political opportunists.
Hee...heee, Nasty Piglosi is the most disliked person in congress. She has nothing valuable to offer to any dialogue. Take your lousy oversized gavel and disappear, please.

From the Test Track
The CX-9 has a small but easy to access third-row seat. The 3.7-liter V6 is smooth and refined. Handling is taut and agile, and the ride is firm and steady yet comfortable. Braking performance is better in the Grand Touring model. The optional blind-spot detection system works well.

Wars affect many more people than just the soldiers involved in the fighting. During the Revolutionary War, the men, women and children left on the home front found their world turned upside down. The economy struggled to keep up with the demands of the war. Goods were scarce and both armies took provisions from private citizens by force. Battles sometimes came to civilians' front doors.
Printed Handkerchief, circa 1790. Courtesy of the Concord Museum.
This linen handkerchief was crafted in England in approximately 1790. The border is made up of idealized pictures and short poems describing the experiences of American women on the home front during the Revolutionary War. The women are optimistic about the new challenges they are facing and each task is a "labor of love."

Writing as Social Studies
Writing is an integral part of history education, yet it is frequently left to the realm of the English teacher. The article "Writing in the Social Studies Classroom" (PDF) describes practical and essential strategies for encouraging clear and effective writing into your Social Studies curriculum.
Digital Media in the Classroom
According to the new survey from PBS and Grunwald Associates LLC, "Deepening Commitment: Teachers Increasingly Rely on Media and Technology," 97% of K-12 teachers use digital media for classroom instruction. More than two-thirds (67%) believe that digital resources help them differentiate learning for individual students, and a similar number (68%) believe TV and video content stimulates discussion.

Women's lives were dramatically altered by the war, whether they participated in the activities of the Continental or British armies or labored to keep up their families' farms and businesses. At the same time, they had to care for their families in the face of food shortages and the ever-looming threats of violence and looting. In this lesson, students will examine a handkerchief printed with poems and illustrations about life on the home front during the Revolution. Students will analyze the poems to discover the changing roles of women as they took on the responsibilities of their absent husbands and fathers who were fighting for American independence.
