I endorse careful review of the management of material containing naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) associated with the oil-and-gas extraction industry ("Ohio seeks radioactivity testing on drilling wastes," Dispatch article, Feb. 13). But I urge rule-makers to carefully consider the direct and indirect costs and benefits of their decisions.
Some of the existing and proposed regulations being applied to this industry to manage and dispose of this waste are scientifically sound and protective. For example, I endorse the requirement that the material be handled in a manner that complies with current radiation-protection standards for the public.
However, I am concerned about the limits established for the disposal of solids. Some states have adopted or are considering a limit of 5 picocuries per gram for radium for the disposal of wastes.
This limit originated with the radiation-protection standards for uranium mill tailings and should not be applied to the disposal of solid waste from the oil-and-gas industry without careful consideration of the costs and benefits.
This limit could impose substantial costs on the industry because it might require shipping some solid waste to radioactive-waste disposal facilities far from the well fields and increase risks resulting from more waste-transportation accidents.

Storms recently brought down long-loved trees with many climbing memories, trampolines soared to new heights and found new homes precariously balanced on roof tops, roofs not originally intended to now have skylights, and many businesses and residences went without power for days.
I know there is much to be discouraged, disappointed or even angry about when power isn't restored, cherished things are damaged and insurance battles begin. However, having spent the past year in Third World nations, I invite my fellow Hoosiers and Buckeyes to see things from a different perspective.
My observations from the past weeks were as such:
Families, neighbors and strangers coming together to share generators, offer freezer space or simply invite others over for reprieve from the intense heat.
Businesses and employees cheerfully sacrificing and altering schedules, adjusting to meet the needs of a slightly flustered population of customers/clients.
Strangers and friends sharing stories and truly listening to the experiences of their fellow man, knowing that their heartache and struggle were important to both share and to be heard.
Community coming together to care for and improve the temporarily difficult living conditions for its own people.
Workers, both local and from around the country, sacrificing their Independence Day holiday to travel to the Midwest to restore electricity as quickly as possible.
It is important to remember that while some may have gone a day or even a week without electricity …. 25 percent of the world (1.6 billion people) does not have access to electricity 365 days a year.
Amber Heimann
In her column (June 15), Andrea Neal exposed the controversy surrounding Indiana's "perplexing" decision to abandon its previous academic standards, which were rated as some of the very best in the country, in favor of the clearly inferior nationalized Common Core Math and English Language Arts standards.
What is perplexing is how Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Bennett defends the Common Core standards on the grounds that they are "fewer, clearer and deeper" than the Indiana standards they supplanted. As Neal mentioned, prior to Indiana's adoption of the Common Core, the Fordham Institute (which is pro-Common Core) released a report that rated Indiana's previous standards as superior.
Equally baffling is Bennett's assertion that Indiana must adopt a national curriculum and replace the Indiana Statewide Testing for Educational Progress (ISTEP) with a federally funded test in order to compare our achievement levels with those of other states. That's the purpose of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), created in the 1960s. We do not need to dumb-down Indiana education just so that we can compare our students with those in other states.
The arguments for junking Indiana's superior standards, in favor of a one-size-fits-all, top-down model, ring hollow to Hoosier ears. It's now up to the next governor and legislature to get us out of this costly, monolithic mess. They can do so by supporting Sen. Scott Schneider's legislation to withdraw from the Common Core, thereby paving the way for real education reform that would distinguish Indiana as a leader, not a follower.

December 28th, 2010 at 9:35 amFor those of you who think you can't trust anyone, it's not the others you don't trust. For those of you who think trust has to be earned, that's an excuse you hide behind because you don't have any to give. If people have to go out of their way to convince you they are trustworthy 1 of 3 things will happen: 1) You will only attract and get close, or as close as what's aloud, to the ones just like you. 2) If they know you don't trust them then they will live up to your expectations by not caring and being untrustworthy. 3) An intelligent person won't waste their time trying. At least you can always say you right though. You are all are correct by your own self fulfilling prophecies. How lonely you must be.

Many of the nation's top prep stars descended upon Fort Wayne, IN over the weekend to take part in the Spiece Bill Hensley Memorial Run N Slam. The historic Spiece fieldhouse is where recent NBA draftees Greg Oden, Mike Conley Jr., Daequan Cook, Eric Gordon, and Josh McRoberts refined their skills before jumping to the League.
Decked out with eight full courts, weight room, training facility, sporting goods store and elaborate snack bar, it's far more then your normal run of the mill basketball complex. Even more compelling for hoops junkies is the history behind the place, donning over 100 game-used jerseys of the best the state of Indiana has produced, including Larry Legend himself, Shawn Kemp, and Calbert Cheaney. They also had signed jerseys of NBA stars Karl Malone, Shaq and MJ, as well as Wilt Chamberlain game-used shorts. Needless to say, you could spend a few hours there checking out the scenery and forget that the future of college basketball is playing just a few feet away.
Here's a look at some of the top youngsters from Fort Wayne:
Jabari Parker, 6-7, SF, Mac Irvin Fire 17′s, 2013
Scout.com's No. 1 player in the Class of 2013 put on a show playing up with the 17′s, though his loaded Mac Irvin team was sent back to the windy city a little earlier than expected. Looking in better shape each time we see him, Jabari showed off his improved athleticism when he caught this 6'11 defender slipping for the dunk of the tournament. Parker continued to make his case for top player in the class with his diverse array of skills that made him too quick for players his own size to guard and too big for more traditional wings to defend. There's still some time to go before we see if the Paul Pierce comparisons are warranted, but at the high school level, Jabari is The Truth.
Trey Lyles, 6-8, PF, Spiece 16′s, 2014
Arguably the best freshman in the country, Lyles did everything in his power to show us why ESPN has him ranked No. 1 in the class. The skilled power forward was unstoppable playing a year up on the 16u level, capable of getting buckets on you both in the pivot and facing the cup. The Indiana recruit will definitely be a guy who will have tons of eyes on him throughout the rest of his high school career.
Marc Loving, 6-8, SF, All Ohio Red 16′s, 2013
There may not be another player standing 6'8 or bigger in the Class of 2013 that can do the things on the perimeter that this Ohio State recruit can. Once a skinny kid a la a young Kevin Martin, Loving has filled out his frame and is looking much more explosive than in the past. Marc shot the lights out of the ball and showed off an improved first step to get past smaller defenders en route to the tin. It's going to be 2 1/2 years before the Toledo native suits up for the Buckeyes, but he has a good chance to be one of the next first round picks from the Thad Matta regime in Columbus.
James Blackmon Jr, 6-0, SG, Spiece 16′s, 2014
The son of former Kentucky James Blackmon looks like he"ll be following his pops' footsteps as an elite scorer. With a picture perfect J and tight handle, the freshman is quite the problem to guard. Already vowing to take his services to Indiana come 2014, he's showing the part of an instant impact player if he keeps progressing.
Kendrick Nunn, 6-3, SG, Meanstreets 16′s, 2013
The epitome of a tough Chicago kid, it is only fitting that Nunn plays for Meanstreets. Ex-Giants wideout Tai Streets is the coach and is one of the more in-your-face AAU coaches that you'll see around. The Simeon product led his team to the finals with his efficient slashing game and ability to put the clamps on guys defensively. You'd like to see him grow a little bit more, but he's still going to be a high major two guard regardless.
Jack Gibbs, 5-10, PG, All Ohio Varsity 16′s, 2013
Tough would be the one word in the dictionary to best describe Gibbs' game. Not overly tall or athletic, the Columbus native used his gritty style of play to lead All Ohio Varsity to upset wins over a few more heralded, sneaker sponsored AAU teams. Jack's ability to see the floor, lead a team, and play great defense makes him someone that just about every mid-major program in the country should be taking a look at.
Paul White, 6-6, SF, Ferarri 15′s, 2014
One of the very best players in the Class of 2014, White's Ferrari unit got sent packing a little early and he found himself seeing inconsistent playing time throughout the weekend. When he was on the floor, it was easy to see the talent that the lanky wing brought to the table with his picture perfect pull-up J and outstanding athleticism. There is plenty of time to write the book on Paul White, but he's definitely a guy that Chicagoans should check out before he really blows up on the national level.
Kevin Johnson, 6-2, PG/SG, Ohio Basketball Club 16′s, 2013
This explosive combo guard out of Cincy really opened some eyes with his ability to blow past cats off of the bounce and finish above the rim. He exhibited great effort on the defensive end, making you ponder how nasty of a defender he could eventually become as he continues to learn the game and grow into his body. Seton Hall offered KJ on the spot after seeing him just one time, and expect a number of other d-1 coaches to do that throughout the summer once they lay eyes on him.
Evan Bradds, 6-6, SF, CBIZ 16′s, 2013
While he's not a household name amongst recruiting circles, Bradds outplayed many guys listed ahead of him in both state and national rankings. With a nice J and deceptive athleticism going to the rim, the sophomore often catches defenders off guard because he doesn't necessarily look the part of a big time basketball player. Already rocking a handful of mid-major offers, expect that list to grow once July rolls around and more coaches get a glimpse of this sleeper from rural Ohio.

Sheriff's Savings
Fighting crime should be collaborative
Sometimes in government problems that have gone unnoticed have a way of coming to the top when there is a controversy. When that happens, some say, "I told you so," while others say, "I had no idea." This seems to be the case with the latest revelations and discussions about how citizens can help fight crime and how much an updated, state of the art criminal records information system is needed.
All of this, of course, came about after the Fairmont Terrace shooting in January. The shortcomings of the crime fighting tools available to Tulsa Police had been there for years, but it took a horrific event for policy leaders to suddenly get focused. Government has a whole lot more experience being reactive than proactive so we're pretty good at creating after-the-fact task forces, committees, and so forth.
Besides all of the issues surrounding public housing, the two crime fighting issues that have dominated the air space have been about the Crime Prevention Network (CPN), formerly called the Citizens Crime Commission, and the revelations that the Tulsa Police Department criminal records information system is about 30 years old. So now the opinions about what can be done to improve both of these are starting to be voiced.
Historically, the two most visible programs of the CPN are the Crime Stoppers Tip Line and the Neighborhood Watch Program. There is little dispute that there have been times when both of these programs have helped law enforcement do their job.
But now there is a plea that the City of Tulsa provides a substantial amount of funding (perhaps up to $250,000) to increase the outreach and effectiveness of CPN. The questions are, will it make CPN more effective and should the City of Tulsa carry the load alone?
Is educating citizens on how to be crime spotters and crime reporters going to fall on the ears of the responsible and civic-minded citizens? Will it be able to change the attitudes and behaviors of those who are not? If anonymity and a cash reward are not enough incentive to help, what is?
Certainly education is a good thing. If economic development can save a family, surely education can save a life. Yet it's hard to imagine that most people who would report a crime tip don't already know how to do that. There needs to be more than brochures in police cars or any other marketing campaign funded entirely by the City of Tulsa.
First, this is a county or regional problem and should be planned, solved, and funded on a county or regional basis. Second, the better way to reach people today with marketing or messaging is through the social media tools. It is on Facebook, not billboards, that folks are more likely to get the message. Third, and perhaps most importantly, you have to find a way to involve the youth. The vast majority of crime seems to be committed by people younger than 35. Perhaps more work at all levels of education should be the focus.
Sheriff Stanley Glanz COURTESY OF TULSA COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE |
Fourth, most crime here comes from gang members. You break or cripple a gang like we break or cripple a terrorist organization -- you take out the leaders by all means available. We must relentlessly put all law enforcement assets that we can against gangs.
On the topic of the criminal records information system, the current system was designed and created by then-TPD Major Stanley Glanz in the late 1970s. Today, as Tulsa County Sheriff, Glanz has created a state-of-the-art criminal justice records information system that is one of the best in the country. He has shared this system with Jenks, Bixby, and Owasso. The question now is, why not include Tulsa?
Before the city considers spending millions of dollars for years to come (or asking the taxpayers to foot the bill as part of the next third penny sales tax) on a new system that will take years to develop, the sheriff, his staff, and his vendor should be invited to City Hall to demonstrate how he can provide a better service and system for less cost and quicker.
Clearly, a unified data base which can be accessed by police and sheriff cars all over the county is an idea that should be vetted. After all, it was just a year ago that city and county officials spent months working on a collaborative model on how they would work better together for the benefits of the taxpayers. Cooperative crime fighting, sharing information and backing each other up is what the citizens reasonably expect.
About five years ago, when the city and county were negotiating their contract on the operation and costs of the jail, the city had expected the sheriff to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to the city in order to access and use the City of Tulsa's records systems. The sheriff said thanks but no thanks and went out and found a system for a fraction of the cost. Now the very system the City wanted the sheriff to use is shown to be inadequate and out of date with current technology. Obviously the sheriff made the right decision.
No one really disagrees that both the CNP and the City of Tulsa crime information systems can be effective crime fighting tools. And no one really disagrees that in order to do that will take some amount of funding commitment. Where the debate needs to be now is what's the most effective and sensible things to do, who should be involved, who pays for it, and how will we measure success with whatever is chosen to be done.

real-time news and commentary for investors
Wednesday, Oct 17
Sprint (S) is working on a fancy move to take control of Clearwire without buying it, according...
Sprint (S) is working on a fancy move to take control of Clearwire without buying it, according to sources. Instead, Sprint may cut a deal with other major Clearwire investors - including Comcast and Intel - that would allow it to appoint a majority of directors to Clearwire's board. CLWR +4.4% AH.
Track new comments on this story
This news story has 7 comments:
Sprint already has a majority with 7 of 13 directors.. In its current form, God only knows what Sprint will try to do to or with Clearwire. It could team with both Intel and Comcast. The problem is that Craig McCaw's Eagle River pretty much has veto rights on corporate actions -- board construction, if it feels that it or the public is unfairly treated. Frankly, I am not sure McCaw will assert these rights. I also suspect, but do not know, the FCC conditions around Comcast's deal with Verizon likely limits its ability to act.
With Softbank calling the shots, I expect Sprint will take a more rational approach to Clearwire's business and governance. -
Bloomeberg is now reporting that Sprint has agreed to buy Eagle Rivier's Clearwire holdings.
If this is true, Craig McCaw is the wimp so many say he is. Ditto for Ben Wolff. -
I think it is good news for both Sprint and Clearwire. This move triggers some financial requirements for Sprint to payoff the debts holders of CLWR in order to take controlling interest - greatly improving CLWR ability to be profitable on current business operations.
Softbank CEO Son is reported to travel to the U.S. this week to explain the merger to Sprint investors, and Sprint is to obtain a $3 Billion payment October 24th for network build out of the Network Vision / CLWR TD-LTE network. More details approaching obviously.
Eagle River made their own decision, and they are still entitled to that in a free enterprise system, so those that don't like it need to man up themselves. IMO, this is going to work itself out much to the better for everyone including the telecom market and the consumer.
Both Sprint and CLWR are scheduled to present their Q3 earnings reports and CC's on October 25th. Very timely and sure to be greatly interesting.

Clipper Sports Editor
BOUNTIFUL — The latest realignment meeting by the Utah High School Activities Association will result in a lot of movement from schools to different classes and regions.
However, two local high schools could benefit from it. Initial plans have rivals Davis and Viewmont back together in 5A's Region 1.
Davis and Viewmont, which were in Region 1 together for many years, but were split apart after the last realignment placed the Vikings in Region 2. They have been there since the fall of 2011.
Since then, the Vikings have taken advantage of the move by claiming numerous region titles, while placing highly in state competitions during the past year-plus of competition.
In 2011 the Vikings С in the same region as Kearns, Taylorsville, Hunter, West and Granger high schools С claimed a region title in football, girls' soccer, boys' basketball, softball, boys' soccer, and a number of other sports.
The girls' soccer team went undefeated in Region 2 for the second consecutive season this year, and finished the 5A tournament as state champions.
Davis has had its own run of success in that time as well, claiming a volleyball crown in 2011 and a semi-final appearance this year. The baseball team also won a region title along with girls' soccer, boys' soccer, and other sports.
The rivalry, however, was the biggest thing missing for most fans in the Viewmont and Davis cheering communities, a fact that has been stated several times by coaches since the two team's separated regions.
While both schools attempted to maintain the rivalry by scheduling each other in many sports, it wasn't the same as competing against each other twice in every sport, every year.
This Fall, the girls' soccer teams ended up not facing each other due to scheduling difficulties early in the season. The baseball teams didn't play each other in the Spring, and the two volleyball teams did not play each other this season either.
For the winter sports this year, only the girls' basketball teams aren't scheduled to face each other.
Region 6 will also get its share of a shake up as well, although it won't be due to a separation of rivalries.
Bountiful and Woods Cross, which have been in the same region together for many years, will stay together in Region 6 once again. They will be accompanied by the same four schools (Cyprus, Clearfield, Highland and East), plus newcomer Kearns, should the UHSAA Board of Trustees approve the final map.
Kearns has been competing in 5A's Region 2 for the past two seasons, and before then was in Region 3. According to information sent to the Clipper, Kearns' drop is likely due to its number of juniors and seniors enrolled, which currently stands at 1007.
Viewmont's region will almost certainly get an extreme makeover to begin the 2013 school year if the regions are approved. In addition to the Vikings' move back to Region 1, Taylorsville and Hunter will move from Region 2 to Region 3, leaving Granger and West as the only two schools not to move regions.
Other than the Vikings' move back to Region 1, the rest of the region will remain the same. It will be the only region in 5A to have seven schools.

Snow lined slopes in the distance, gushing rivers, steep waterfalls, rich
flora and fauna are just few of the gifts that Himachal Pradesh has to offer.
Secluded deep in the mountains of Himachal Pradesh is one of the state's best kept secrets... Writershill. If the name gives you a picture of green mountains, deep valleys and leaves dancing with the breeze, then you're absolutely right.
Writershill is an hour's drive from Nahan and 20km from Renuka Lake. The
area offers auto touring, biking, cultural and historic sites, camping, hiking
and wildlife. You can catch glimpses of village life where land, tradition and
a slower pace are venerated even today.
The property has quiet, creative spaces that are perfect for getting away
from the mayhem of the metropolitans. You can either remain cocooned in the
self-contained cottages with a backdrop of spectacular views or you can explore
an area rich in forest trails, river treks, wildlife and ragged mountains. Be
inspired to compose music, string together some words or just pick up the
paintbrush. For people who demand solitude with convenience, Writershill is the
place to be.
The cottages are huge and have a library with a wide range of books and DVDs to indulge your intellectual side.
Luxury Tent: Perched on a grassy terrace, this cozy tent overlooks some beautiful views. You might even find a sheep grazing right outside your window.
Luxury Cottage: These cottages are spacious yet homely, providing you with amazing views of the surrounding landscape.
Honeymoon Cottage: Tucked away in a peaceful
curve, this cottage helps you suspend reality and imagine yourself in a remote
part of the world.
Super Luxury Cottage: These cottages are complete with all the luxuries and comforts needed for a memorable stay. The windows open out onto breathtaking views of green mountains and an infinite blue sky.
Wake up to watch the rising sun as you sit under a canopy of tall trees, enjoying a hearty breakfast. Spend your day taking in the beauty that surrounds you or visit some of the popular tourist sites in the region:
Renuka Lake: It's one of the most religious places in Himachal Pradesh. Apart from the
temples, the lake is the biggest attraction. Packed with fish that swim to the
shores to eat wheat dough thrown in by the visitors, the lake is also a
wonderful place for boating. Pick up a boat and pedal away a couple of hours,
relaxed by the greenery around.
Badholia Temple Waterfall: Just 1km away from Writershill, this waterfall forms the backdrop for the local temple. The roar of the gushing water can be heard for miles around.
The Jalal River Bed: Another 5km ahead of the
waterfall, across the bridge, a path goes down to the river bed strewn with big
and small rocks. In and around these rocks, flows the Jalal river.
Renuka Zoo: Built around the lake, the best way to explore the zoo/national park is to take a 3km walk. You will walk with the lake on one side and the animals on the other. Deer, bears, leopards, lions and lionesses are just some of the many animals you might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of.
As the night falls, enjoy a scrumptious dinner under the starry sky.
Enjoy little luxuries in the lap of nature. Retreat into a silent
secluded corner and find yourself feeling refreshed and renewed after just a

Singled him out as a major Romney -- donor he joins -- -- Critics I tell me about having -- why do you think that day on an enemy's list and why you think you would be out that -- the Obama campaign.
Well when this just came out when this there were only eight people lot of that was one of them so.
When I first learned that I was and his enemies that it really worried me at first -- Syria and and my first anticipation was that yeah I've got a target strapped to my back and sure enough in this tax started coming in and I -- that I stayed at the state and today because I thought about it.
As you know this is America we can't -- these tactics intimidated them and so -- I remain undeterred.
So where is this list whereas it where did you first see -- hear this list.
Gosh you people started then NB.
Emails with that I don't know what this -- what the -- -- his campaign is.
Barack Obama's campaign and -- for president stands.
I don't know the address of it but I think it's pretty well known -- -- I don't hear it.
How many steps been taken to investigate get a sense people are -- phone calls being made about you ready search is being made by you they know anything's that they get since beyond just sort of some talk.
Both no there's been that's kind of electronic media.
So called electronic media journalists -- -- but it all kinds of innuendo in my direction accuse me of all kinds of bad bad things.
People called my children they've been.
Surfing -- Begin this site have been asking for interviews of my kids and then.
We learned here.
A little over a week ago that this former US senate investigators.
Is do an investigation -- made out of our at our local court house.

Actually when I learned this he was a member of the subcommittee of Homeland Security that's great be a lot.
And that's the delta doesn't look like he's he's still there it looked like he he claims to have recently left we don't know how recently he left that department but -- Right next Sunday and that's a man whose name is mister wolf is that correct is that the man who -- who has been trying to -- courthouse looking for records didn't matter who left the senate.

Answer them.
Analyses this that don't they locked -- kinds of -- none none of them stuck except.
The idea that I'm anti gay and supposedly gay basher in the truth is.
I think I have I consider many gay people -- personal friends never spoken ill of a gay person in my life I've never been judgmental of a gay person.
-- -- gay people should have this same rights of all Americans I don't know how anybody who knows -- considerably after -- -- -- that was the story.
But if it -- -- gay issue contribute something else that it is that the TV -- just -- the pixel.

The red flags are waving
on April 23, 2013 @ 6:38 am (Updated: 8:21 am - 4/23/13 )
Several members of Congress said the FBI should have kept an eye on him instead of closing the file.
But FBI agents said they found nothing amiss. The rules say you can't just start tailing a legal resident who hasn't done anything wrong yet. Possibly harboring radical feelings isn't a crime.
Plus - we can be pretty sure Tamerlan wasn't the only guy to pop up on the FBI's religious zealot radar. My guess is there are thousands. That's a lot of following to do.
But what about the other red flags - friends and family saying he was getting more religious, more conservative, more combative - at one point getting in an Imam's face for preaching about Martin Luther King Jr., which Tamerlan thought was wrong because King wasn't a Muslim.
Would that, combined with his extended visit to relatives in South Russia, be enough to warrant surveillance?
Maybe, except that in America you are free. Free to travel, free to worship - free to become an ultra-conservative, free to say mean things about Martin Luther King, Jr. - without the government hassling you. You are also free to go on the internet and download bomb-making plans.
A lot of people can't believe they didn't have outside help. I can see why. Because if they pulled this off alone, it means countless others could do the same. Countless others and find everything they need without help from shady people who turn out to be undercover FBI agents. And that is not a happy thought.

That's well the Turkey and the Black Friday sales are dying it's time for Cyber Monday expanding its estimated that spending will be a 21 point 4%.
From last year to one and a half billion dollars we're just talking about that it is great news for retailers but.
Happens after today's cyber spending bonanza will the -- stop spending.
I know that backdating capital retail analyst.
Adrienne -- joins me with what we can expect to seep from now until Christmas.
On those -- welcome to the show first of all those -- were staggering.
You know we're looking at one point five billion for online shopping -- I -- I was wondering how much of that was being cannibalized.
Away from retail and you realize that retail is still -- much -- juror number in terms of bricks and mortar going into stores fats like sixty billion right.
That that's right -- exactly that's right -- and our asset over the weekend that there is pipe close at 1059 billion being spent.
Over the entire Black Friday weekend.
-- online is still less then call -- 15% of the total spend.
So while it's growing really rapidly and it will eventually -- -- more and more it's it's an ongoing trend it's just gonna continue.
The fact of the matter but some more is still matter.
What we saw in the stores with this shift to the midnight hours and then unfortunately.
Kind of into the -- -- -- a little late hours at Thanksgiving Day.
On clearly there's a ship it's happening this broader over the weekend.
But there will be a while and they're always says in those first two weeks.
There's 32 days of holiday spending vs thirty and people like to wait they say yeah -- will get them a better deal.
-- is that true I mean a lot of people came around to trying to go back and say that you get a lot of deals in the beginning -- -- -- you better act quickly.
And obviously that's what merchants -- what's the true.
So the -- says he got to look at the inventory and the image way across the sector this year is very clean.
Inventory dollars are -- far less in the sales dollar growth.
So last year I would've said yes you should way and you could wait until the two weekends before and you're gonna get a better deal.
I don't think that's gonna be the case with hot -- -- says here you want something a particular colors skiddie like denim.

Yeah there are some years where we start with a really strong Black Friday in Minnesota Peters the overall holiday is just okay.
Because the inventory is so clean.
And because the promotions are essentially flat year on year.
Mean they may look very deep fifty up the whole store but generally people -- flat -- on those promotions I think it's actually a harbinger of a very decent holiday season.
Last I was up five point six I still think really positive five point six with a big number to be up.
So it -- I think it'll be up 34% that's very very healthy how people spending rare form or more percent this year.

Sue perhaps in the past couple years they haven't spent to the full capacity of their ability to spend.
And so what you're seeing is that the upper income wobbles.
Luxury higher and higher -- As well as the affordable right affordable luxury.
You're seeing little bit more -- happening there friendly do you think that they -- -- -- increase of that three to 4% is driven by people have the most money because we're about to really raise taxes on.

LT renovation plans would brighten cafeteria
LA GRANGE – Renovations to both campuses of Lyons Township High School that could start next summer will be similar in scope to the $17.8 million in changes that began a decade ago, LT officials said.
DLA Architects presented renovation drafts June 17 at a District 204 School Board meeting. A highlight of the renovations, which would be funded by a bond issue, is transforming the North Campus cafeteria into a more open space that would include a wall of windows next to the building's courtyard.
"It's very dark, not a lot of natural light," LT spokeswoman Jennifer Bialobok said of the current cafeteria.

Hudson & Fournier: Catholic Countdown to Election 2012 - Day 34: Playing the Mormon Card
The best course of action is to determine where the calls are coming from, stop them, and reprimand whoever is responsible for such a bigoted script
This playing of the Mormon card by a caller representing Obama contradicts the promises made by Obama himself and the head of his campaign, David Axelrod - not to mention being insulting to Catholics with the accompanying presumption that such prejudice appeals to them.
WASHINGTON, DC (Catholic Online) - The anti-Mormon push calls to Catholic voters were first reported here at Catholic Online.
Since the first of the two reports, the story was picked up by Peter Roff at U.S. New & World Report --'Obama Supporters' Dirty Tricks to Win the Catholic Vote"
Roff's story was then published on the Drudge Report with the headline -- 'Push Calls Ask: How can you support a Mormon?' and was subsequently posted on Laura Ingraham's web site -- 'Obama supporters' dirty tricks to win Catholic Vote.'
The latest iteration of the story can be found on the front page of www.redstate.com -- 'Obama Campaign Uses Bigotry in a Push Poll.'
The U.S. News & World Report story by Peter Roff as of now has received over 180,000 views, and one can only imagine how many read it through the links on the Drudge Report, LauraIIngraham.com, and redstate.com.
These kinds of headlines are making the Obama Catholic supporters, and the Obama campaign, very unhappy. Calls and emails are being circulated that this story is not true, that it was misrepresented.
Obama's Catholic surrogates are denying it happened.
As far as we can tell none of these skeptics are even aware of the second story that provides the name, city, and parish of the woman who received both push phone calls.
Both callers read from the same script and both callers denied President Obama supported abortion, denied Planned Parenthood supported abortion, touted the valiant efforts of the 'nuns-on-the-bus,' and asked specifically about the faith of GOP president candidate, Mitt Romney:
"How can you support a "Mormon" who does not believe in Jesus Christ?"
This playing of the Mormon card by a caller representing Obama contradicts the promises made by Obama himself and the head of his campaign, David Axelrod - not to mention being insulting to Catholics with the accompanying presumption that such prejudice appeals to them.
Democrats consider themselves more naturally disposed towards tolerance than Republicans on the whole, therefore, this eruption of bigotry on the phone lines is hard for them to swallow.
Those Obama supporters scurrying around today trying to quash the story are driven at the most fundamental level by a firm conviction that "one of their own" could possibly be guilty of such a repellent remark.
We would advise those who are trying to discredit this story, or who are pushing emails around saying it's untrue, not to get very far out on that limb, lest it break fairly quickly.
The best course of action is to determine where the calls are coming from, stop them, and reprimand whoever is responsible for such a bigoted script.
If someone from the Obama campaign were to call Joy Allen and apologize, that would be an extremely civilized and appropriate gesture!

Nothing this President says would surprise me anymore; he has an "agenda" totally foreign to our Constitution. From what we have seen/heard him say and do, it appears he has dictator leanings. He frightens me. If he gets "4 more years" he will, indeed (as he promised before his first election)--utterly "transform" our country--The USA will be totally unrecognizable for the Founding Principles we have rightfully cherished for nearly 200+ years. This election will, indeed, be decisive for the future of the United States of America. It is up to "we the people;" who will get who we vote for! Let us pray and do penance; and may God enlighten us and deliver us from evil! Also, thank you, Deacon Keith, for appraising us of the availability of your articles....

Obama is not a Christian. A true Christian knows that abortion is murder. America is doing the same thing that Israel did in the Old Testament when they sacraficed their children to their god (Moulah). They were judged and punished by GOD for this and America will be judged too. Obama voted for partial birth abortion and for refusing medical treatment to a botched abortion where the baby is born alive. Catholics should not cower down to Obamas bully tactics.

We should support Sen Virgil Goode of the Constitutional Party. He's the only candidate who has the gumption to defend the unborn and protect marriage. For once let's not settle for the lesser of two evils, but the best! And, unlike either of the other candidates, he does believe in Jesus Christ (even if he is Protestant).

For those who still believe that there is no difference between Obama and Romney, please wake up and smell the facts! This just may be the most important presidential election in our nation's history. The ramifications are HUGE! Please pray and then choose...wisely.

Catholic democrats hardly have some nerve to claim having a monopoly on compassion, peace or justice. Their policies result in crippling economic conditions-based on Hitlerian demonizing of the wealthy and businesses. They have contempt for defending innocent human life (including,after a baby is born in the case of the evil man they are voting for), and their slashing of defense spending would lead to more wars and totalitarianism around the world-hardly the definition of peace. Romney/Ryan happen to have both a pro-life and a pro-prosperity philosophy. Caholics would do good to rise above the kindergarten economic policies espoused by the democrats, which is based on breaking two Commandments-You shall not covet your neighbors' goods and You shall not steal.

Harold Olsen,
It is the duty of a Catholic to vote. We are obliged to vote and to vote for the candidate who does not violate any teachings of the Church. Therefore we cannot vote for Obama since he is against Pro-Life and Traditional Marriage. Mitt Romney is not the greatest leader, but if people like you do not vote for him because of that, we could end up with another four years from Barack Obama.
While we cannot decide the outcome of the election, but can only pray to God for His Divine Will, we can do our duty as a true Catholic and citizen.
In Christ,
:) -

To Tom McGuire: Please read the other articles I am writing or have written. Also, read Dr Hudsons other articles. As for my work, note the piece I wrote which was published today on the Supreme Court and the Natural Law. "Presidential Election and the Supreme Court: 'New-Rights' vs. Authentic Human Rights On the Ballot." http://www.catholic.org/politics/story.php?id=47854 You can also "google" me. I have been writing on substantive issues for quite a while. Thanks for your comment and your insights.
1 year ago
I had hoped for more substantive insights from this commentary on the 2012 presidential election. This article dips pretty low in terms of substantive issues to be considered. The authors have had nothing to say about foreign policy, global economic conditions, wars, the grinding poverty around the world and yes in the United States, and many other pressing issues. Catholic Social Doctrine addresses all these issues. If we are to make prudential judgments when we vote, all the issues need to be considered. What the authors do, perhaps unintentionally, is raise emotional issues that will move potential voters to vote for Mitt Romney.

@Harold Olson -- It seems extremely strange to me to keep hearing how Romney is an Obama clone, but if you measure "love for country" they're an immeasureable distance apart. I would imagine that Romney knows there's 50 states, not 57. I would tend to guess that Romney will go to church every Sunday when he is in the white house. I believe that he puts his hand over his heart when he is at a ball game. I'm sure he'll salute soldiers as they walk by. I could picture him visiting the hospital in Ft. Hood. His reponse to the most recent 9/11 attack, albeit only words, was far, far better than Obama. I don't believe he'll be bowing to world leaders, and I don't think his wife would utter the words, "I've never been proud of my country." I'm praying that people will vote the way God wants them to vote. I'm hoping that God's choice is NOT Obama. And if it is Romney (barring some mystical experience had by all voters on Nov. 6 telling us to vote for Gary Johnson, or write in Ron Paul), I would hope that We The People can use the next 4 years to go back to our Constitutionalist roots. There's a chance for that if Obama isn't elected. If he is, then there's no chance at all.

Considering Obama is a Muslim ("I'm guided by my Muslim faith," he told George Stephanopolus on ABC last year) saying people shouldn't vote for Romney because he doesn't believe in Jesus is really hippocritical. Muslims do not believe in Jesus. Mormons do. After all, the complete name of their faith is The Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints MORMONS ARE CHRISTIANS!. I certainly will not vote for Obama, but I have yet to decide whether or not I'll vote for Romney -- and his religion has nothing to do with it. I consider him to be an Obama clone. He has yet to give me a reason to vote for him. "Anyone but Obama," isn't enough.

As I was looking through my comments tonight, I saw a very insightful comment left by someone who goes by the name of "Deaner." He or she was responding to my post entitled Medical Students v 2.0. That post is very old, so I wanted to repost it here so that it will get some views. He or she makes some very good points, and it's an incredibly well-written comment. Here it is, thanks Deaner:
I was recently describing the generational difference to a group of friends. Generation X and Y. Its not that we are "entitled, lazy, arrogant or non-caring.†It isn't even that we leave in the midst of patient care and never would we refuse to be involved in an opportunity for education– as the physician above implied. This is a misinterpretation by an older generation that comes from their lack of regard to our goals, our mission and our acute understanding of our surroundings.
Looking at the physicians that make up today's medical field, we are able to deduce the effect that traditional medical education has on its participants. We the older generation of physicians who are bitter, overworked, validation (read: money)-hungry doctors many of whom practice medicine without respect to the patient and without love for their work. We (generation X and Y) on the other hand, are committed to our own sanity, health and future. We want to be good doctors. Period. So when we see inefficiency and ineffectiveness in medical education, which leads to suffering and sacrificing of health, we want to fix it. We recognize that it takes not just one, but two elements to allows us care of patients in our fullest capacity:
- Rigorous and extensive education.
- Our own mental and physical health and continued enthusiasm towards patient care and medicine.
So we put our heads together to change what could be better. Cut out anything that is either impinging on one of the stated elements without fulfilling the other. Why? So we have more free time to play? No. Because we think we are too good for traditional methods? No. Because we think we've somehow earned it? No. Because we don't care about medicine? Absolutely not. We want to fix it because we want to be good doctors. We want to learn every second that we are not working to stay healthy (sleeping, eating, feeling.) We know that we must stay positive (not resent the hospital or our patients) in order to open our minds to allow the maximal amount of education to enable us to be both wise and compassionate doctors.
We refuse to have our potential to be great and healthy physicians stripped from us by our experience with medical education.
I am not bothered by older doctors saying "blah, blah, we worked so much harder than you…†Instead, I pity them. I pity them for justifying their misery but ridiculing our commitment to change.
