All I needed was the mirror and a brush to make me feel like the star I thought I was. It's safe to say that even at a young age I was pretty smitten with music. I remember reading or rather singing the dialogue of chapter books, a loud for my whole family to hear. It was my thing. I've always included music in my daily routines which is why some of my best memories are always accompanied with music.
Before there was an iPod, mp3 files, and the such that came with the digital era there was my yellow Walkman, it's safe to say that I've since graduated from a Walkman and have immersed myself into the digital age, but there was a time where I always carried that bright yellow contraption since I got it for my fourth birthday. Of course, I also carried a stash of extra batteries because with how much I used that Walkman it was bound to drain the batteries of its energy. Batteries meet their match in a four-year old girl.
Now what would a four-year old girl be listening to? You know the usual, a mixture of Selena's Dreaming of You and the Eagles' Hotel California. I was either wiggling my butt to Bidi Bidi Bom Bom or bobbing my head to Don Henley's voice. All the while belting the lyrics all the way to our destination. I was a vampire of sorts draining the life out of batteries with my trusty yellow Walkman, and after a while my parents decided that it would be ideal to play my two favorite cassettes on the car system and not constantly having to buy batteries. On long car rides to Mexico or even a 30-minute drive to visit family in Weslaco always meant I was thoroughly entertained.
My father jokes that the only word I knew to say was 'higher' or 'subale' for when my favorite songs came on. Music has always been a family affair, and that's how all of my siblings and I fell in love with music. It's good family time when everyone in the car is able to sing along to the song blaring from my father's system, whether it be America, Pink Floyd, The Steve Miller Band, or the Eagles. I always feel at home in moments like that. Perhaps there is a reason I have a playlist called Homesick for when I need a reminder of home.
I may no longer need AA batteries to power my Zune, nor is it the obnoxious bright yellow music player from when I was younger, the music however has stayed the same. My one constant that has a way of taking me home to the days of my yellow Walkman.
The minor fall, the major lift.

Essays on Wage Inequality: the Role of Composition, Immigration and the Cost-of-living
This thesis focuses on the role of composition, immigration and the cost-of-living on wage inequality.
I begin by investigating to what extent changing characteristics of the labour force can help explain the fact that residual or within-group wage inequality –wage dispersion among workers with the same education and experience- is generally thought to account for most of the growth in wage inequality observed in several industrialised countries over the last thirty years.

Artefact of the Month - December 2012
Dogs, jackals, wolves, and foxes: a monograph of the Canidae / by St. George Mivart; with woodcuts, and 45 coloured plates drawn from nature by J.G. Keulemans and hand-coloured. Published: London, 1890.
This month we feature a suitably wintry picture of an Esquimaux Dog illustrated by John Gerrard Keulemans (1842-1912). St. George Jackson Mivart (1827-1900) wrote the text of this 216 page book. He wrote: "One of the most interesting breeds... is the Esquimaux Dog, which so closely resembles the wolf... Our plate represents a fine specimen of this breed living in the Gardens of the Zoological Society." (p.163).
Keulemans drew the Dog from life, but depicted it in a snowy landscape rather than in London.
London Zoo had its first Esquimaux Dog in 1828; the year the Zoo opened.
Two other examples of the fine work of Keulemans can also be seen below: one an Antarctic Wolf, and then in complete contrast, one of the "now multitudinous breeds of the Domestic Dog" (Mivart, p.161) - a Mexican Lap-Dog.

QP and Xerox Team Up for Webinar Series
Need to generate more prospects, find the best salespeople, and retain customers? Then you shouldn't miss the upcoming webcast series sponsored by Xerox and presented by MyPrintResource.com, Quick Printing, Printing News, and Wide-Format Imaging. Presenters for this dynamic series are QP columnist Dave Fellman and Printing News columnist Joe Rickard. Session one, "Prospecting in the 21st Century," will be held September 21, 2011 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern time. Session two, "Sales Management, Finding and Keeping Good Salespeople," will take place October 12, at 2:00 p.m. And session three, "The Essentials of Selling the Value of Web 2 Print," will be presented November 16 at 2:00 p.m. Those who register and attend all three sessions will receive a certificate of completion.
Sales & Costs Climb for Quick Printers
Although more than half (58%) of the quick and small commercial printers surveyed have experienced increased sales during the first quarter of 2011—up at least 10% for a quarter of the group—increases in paper, energy, and employee healthcare costs have wiped out the gains, according to the latest issue of the NAPL Quick and Small Commercial Printers Trends Report.
The report, sponsored by Xerox, found that total costs for those surveyed now average 93.9% of sales, up from 92.9% during the first quarter of 2010, but owner's compensation fell to 6.1% of sales during the 2011 quarter, down from 9.6% in full year 2010. Individual compensation varied widely, however, between the segment leaders—sales up 16.4% and compensation at 18.2%—and those in the bottom 20%, where sales fell 6.8% and compensation was in negative numbers (-1.3%).
"When we asked quick and small commercial printers about their biggest obstacles to profitability, rising healthcare costs were cited most frequently—by 60.6%—followed by a weak economy and markets for their services and products, and a limited ability to raise their prices," note report authors Andrew Paparozzi, NAPL senior vice president and chief economist, and Joseph Vincenzino, senior economist.
The report points out a number of steps companies are now taking to improve operational efficiency, detailing strategies and practical tactics that will improve profitability without relying exclusively on increasing sales.
The NAPL Quick and Small Commercial Printers Trends Report is issued quarterly by the NAPL Research Center. It is free to members and $49.95 for non-members.
Pyxis Network Returns to Owners Conference
Following a brief hiatus, NAPL has announced that it will re-launch the Pyxis Network with a meeting to be held immediately prior to the opening of the Owners Conference at the Doubletree Hotel Magnificent Mile in Chicago. The Pyxis Network has a long history of providing highly interactive facilitated learning opportunities, and serves as a venue for sharing best practices for print company owners with annual sales of more than $2 million. Mitch Evans, a partner in Mitch Evans Consulting and lead organizer and facilitator for this year's event, said that the revival of the Pyxis meeting is "the result of requests from the members who found it to be a vital source for information sharing and growing their businesses." The meeting is open to all NAPL members with more than $2 million in sales. The $150 registration fee includes all sessions, materials, and lunch.

Massachusetts deserves a modern and efficient court system that provides justice in a fair and timely manner. Unfortunately, we currently have an antiquated court system that impedes the delivery of justice.
Enter Harry Spence, the civilian Court Administrator appointed last April to bring a practical approach to the management of the Massachusetts State Courts. In 2013 the realities dictate that our court system be understood not just by lawyers, but by the public too.
No doubt we are still facing challenging economic times in Massachusetts. But there will never be a time without tough choices to be made, and it's time to turn the court's challenges into opportunities for major improvement.
At this week's meeting of the Administration of Justice Steering Committee, Court Administrator Harry Spence detailed the Trial Court's budget request for the upcoming fiscal year. In addition to the Trial Court's maintenance request of $589 million for the Fiscal Year 2014 budget, the Trial Court has presented the Legislature with a series of 6 modules, that if adopted and implemented, will most certainly modernize our justice system.
Here's a look at the 6 modules the Trial Court is proposing to the Legislature for consideration:
Court Administrator Harry Spence talked about other modernization initiatives that are already underway including an Extended Court Hours Pilot set to begin on February 26th. There is an e-filing pilot beginning this spring. The courts are also adding enhancements like e-filing technology, electronic case management, intelligent document and data capture and even secure mobile access. The Court's Strategic Plan is on schedule to be complete by June 30th. Court Service Centers at three to four locations are to begin by July 1st as a pilot program.
The Trial Court's maintenance budget request, as well as the series of modules, needs to be looked at as an investment in the future of our state courts. Good and sound investments in our justice system will be felt overwhelmingly by the individuals and businesses whose use our courts every day.

Labor Day Criterium: CashCall 1-2-3!
The CashCall Mortgage Cycling wrapped up racing on the local calendar over Labor Day weekend. Beginning with the Temecula Vally Grand Prix on Saturday and finishing at the CBR labor Day Criterium on Monday.
In Temecula, David Santos, Brian McCulloch and Devan Dunn raced this inaugural event under humid and hot conditions. The course is a 1.6 mile hot-dog circuit with a finishing climb that gains just under 200ft per lap. Racing for 75 minutes took it's toll on the peloton as the CashCall riders relentlessly attacked and counter attacked the dwindling field. Ultimately David Santos found himself in a breakaway 6 which he trimmed down to 2 – himself and Eder Frayre of Calimex. They raced hard to the finish with Eder narrowly taking the win, Santos a solid 2nd.
The team had all four of our local athletes, Chris Barton, Brian McCulloch, David Santos and Devan Dunn, ready to rock at the CBR series final. Being the last local crit the team would race together in 2013, they had several goals they wanted to accomplish. This made for exciting racing and a story to tell from each of them. The team ultimately finished 1-2-3 at the Labor Day Criterium in a great show of teamwork.
David Santos:
Claiming the 2013 SoCal Cup Overall standings was never an initial goal of the CashCall Mortgage Cycling team. The last two years, we spent the majority of the season racing locally. Doing so allowed us to accumulate enough points to win the SoCal Cup, especially last year when we claimed the top 5 places. For the 2013 season, the program spent much more time racing NRC/NCC races and we missed out on most of the SCNCA events. After we returned from the Cascade Cycling Classic, teammate Brian McCulloch analyzed the local results and informed us that claiming the SoCal Cup for the third year in a row was still a possibility! So after a couple phone calls and emails, Brian, Devan, and Chris (Those of us who live in SoCal) collectively committed to accomplishing 3 goals. 1.) win the SoCal Cup Series 2.) ensure that everyone on the team won at least one race 3.) move Brian into the top 5 in the overall series. Fast forward 6 weeks and every CashCall rider won a race! I managed to consistently finish on the podium which allowed me to accumulate enough points to gradually surpass the current leader, Justin Williams, and Brian managed to score enough points to move into 3rd. Accomplishing these goals was 100% a team effort and out right, HARD WORK.
The four of us committed to making it happen, were 100% sold out to each other, and rode our bikes harder than we ever imaged we would have to. In the end, we accomplished exactly what we said we were going do. To be a three time SCNCA SoCal Cup Champion is an amazing feeling. But knowing it was a direct result of teamwork from some of the best cyclists and stand-up men I know, makes this victory even sweeter!
Chris Barton:
Ending the year with two wins is big for me. Its been a while since I've won a race, and to win two in three weeks is awesome (Ontario GP and CBR Labor Day Criterium)! It is a great feeling to set goals as a team and to accomplish them as a team. Both wins were the result of being able to take advantage of an opportunity given to me by my teammates, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am very grateful to have such a supportive team.
Brian McCulloch:
After the Brentwood GP at the beginning of August, me and the boys were looking for ways to keep our motivation high as the season was waning. Luckily for us, there are lots of bike races between Brentwood and our final event in Las Vegas on the SoCal calendar. As a group, we set out wrap-up the SoCal Cup win for our man Santos for a third straight season. This is a classification that takes the support of an entire team and the dedication of a strong rider, fortunately we have both. Santos has proved that over the past three seasons he is the most consistent rider in SoCal. From criteriums to road races and time trials, Santos is always at the front. Along with the goal of defending the SoCal Cup title, we set the goal of getting Dunn, Barton, and myself a win before the seasons end.
As always, my biggest enjoyment of bike racing is accomplishing team objectives. I like to think of it as 'fighting above our weight'. With riders like Dunn, Barton, and Santos it makes 'racing hard' very rewarding and together we can push each other to get the most out of ourselves. The goals we set may have sounded a bit lofty at the outset, but with with our collective commitment and drive we were able to accomplish all of these goals and more. When we finished 1-2-3 at the final CBR of the SoCal Cup season, it seemed a fitting end for us and a demonstrative example of the power of team-work.
I am very proud of our team for accomplishing these goals, especially in the face of such big opposition. The SoCal peloton is known to be strong and aggressive. There were no gifts given to earn these results, and we would have it no other way. Better competition forces us to be better, race smarter, and be more committed. That is what drives me and I am thankful to have teammates and sponsors who feel the same.
Devan Dunn:
I spent the better part of the early season dealing with an injury that kept me out of the races. However, the 2013 season was not all about couch time and physical therapy for me. I am so thankful to my teammates and the CashCall Mortgage cycling team staff for standing by me after my injury. I was able to get back on the bike and out on the road with the guys mid-April and it was easy to stay focused with all the success they were having at the races. The strength of my team even allowed me to take a win of my own and contribute to many! More than anything though, I am so grateful for the friendships I've made with my guys. Our bike trip down the coast and our end of season success has been the highlight of my career thus far….easily.

Walter Page's Blue Devils
Walter Page's Blue Devils
The Oklahoma City Blue Devils, also known as Walter Page's Blue Devils, featured an all-star lineup as one of Kansas City's premier jazz bands in the late 1920s and early 1930s. The territory band is best known for breaking in a gifted young pianist named William Basie, who later gained fame as Count Basie. Other luminaries included singer Jimmy Rushing, alto saxophonist Buster Smith, trumpeteer Oran "Hot Lips" Page and, briefly, tenor saxophonist Lester Young. Page, who played bass, tuba and baritone sax, got the band together when the Billy King Road Show broke up in 1925. The band cut Blue Devil Blues in 1929, Basie's first recording; he left shortly after. The band started at nine members and grew to as many as 15, at times including James Simpson on trumpets, Eddie Durham on trombone, Willie Lewis on piano, Reuben Lynch on guitar; Edward McNeil on drums, Ernie Williams on vocals, Abe Bolar on bass, Lemuel C. Johnson] on clarinet and tenor saxophone, and [$Don Byas on tenor and alto saxophone. The band trumped nearly every opponent it faced in battle of the bands competitions, except for the older Bennie Moten band, which eventually absorbed most of the Blue Devils, including Page. The corps of the band later went on to play with Count Basie. ~ Ron DePasquale, Rovi

They're repurposing their old dot matrix printer technology - it brings new meaning to stabbing your eyes with hot pins.

Ask the people in Gitmo how their prosecution is proceeding. And while you are at it ask all the people grabbed by Special Rendition about their prosecution status.
The US has demonstrated that there is a huge difference between holding someone and prosecuting them. So while the Justice Department may correctly say that prosecution is unlikely to occur, that in no means ensures that someone won't suffer any consequences.
Yes, that was my first thought when reading the article.
And since you did not provide a link here is one for people wondering what we are talking about.
just started reading from that link and then I found this paragraph in the story:
Ultimately, you would expect that there would be riots across America. But the people could not riot. The terrorist scares at the beginning of the century had caused a number of important changes. Eventually, there were video security cameras and microphones covering and recording nearly every square inch of public space in America. There were taps on all phone conversations and Internet messages sniffing for terrorist clues. If anyone thought about starting a protest rally or a riot, or discussed any form of civil disobedience with anyone else, he was branded a terrorist and preemptively put in jail. Combine that with robotic security forces, and riots are impossible.
I blame Game of Thrones.
That was something on TV, right? I wouldn't know because I don't have a TV. My life improved 110x when I stopped watching TV.

The Drupal logo is a blue drop wearing sunglasses. From Drupal.org, "The name Drupal, pronounced 'droo-puhl,' derives from the English pronunciation of the Dutch word 'druppel,' which means 'drop.'"
Entrepreneurs seeking to build an interactive website with e-commerce features should take a look at Drupal, the Content Management System (CMS) that powers the Fashion Belle website. In researching what type of website framework to use for this site, the book Codin' for the Web by Charles Wyke-Smith (New Riders, 2007) turned our attention to Content Management Systems as platforms for building dynamic, interactive websites. Wyke-Smith refers to the new reality of interactivity as the Internet's driving force, ". . . Today's Web sites are more like applications and less like online brochures--the approach that set the commercial development of the Web in motion. Today's Web designers must accept that designing code is as much a part of the job as designing graphics" (p. xiv). This observation remains true going forward into the future of the Internet.
Among the options for an open source (meaning free) CMS based in the English language, three stood out in our research, Drupal, Wordpress and Joomla. Several others would be added to this list for users outside of North America, and Drupal ranks high among all the open source CMS options worldwide. Drupal is stronger in functionality than Wordpress or Joomla, but some say Drupal is more difficult to learn with fewer theming options than the other two. In answer to this, as Drupal progresses with each release, improvements are making it easier to learn to use. New Drupal theming companies are emerging to add to the options for custom appearance, and improved theming is a goal for the release of Drupal 8, scheduled in 2015. Of course, a Drupal site can be themed in any way desired through custom theming work.
Wordpress is definitely more simple to use than Drupal with more free theming options. However, the reputation for security of Wordpress is much lower than that of Drupal, and it is not uncommon for Wordpress themes to be penetrated by hackers and damaged. For this reason, Drupal is the safer choice with its security team that is constantly monitoring vulnerabilities and issuing security patches. The functionality of Wordpress is also much more limited than that of Drupal, so for a developer who starts with a blog but plans to expand with other features in the future, starting with Drupal will be easier over the long run.
Joomla ranks between Wordpress and Drupal for both security and functionality. Justin Tucker, a programmer from our area who has developed sites in both Joomla and Drupal, tells us that he is transitioning all of his clients to Drupal because he has found that Joomla does not offer the range of functionality available with Drupal. He has also told us that some of his Joomla sites have fallen prey to hackers while none of his Drupal sites have. This is echoed by another development company we know, Worx, that has never had a security breach to more than 500 Drupal sites it manages. The president of Worx also told us that one of the original reasons he chose to work with Drupal instead of Joomla was the superior online support community through Drupal forums. If desired, read more about the differences between Drupal and Joomla.
Founder Dries Buytaert will always have our gratitude for making Drupal free. We have the site we wanted, long before we could have afforded to pay for proprietary software. During our own "Thanks Dries" week for this site in 2011, we posted a front-page banner with the following message (a shorter version of which we also Tweeted to @dries):
Thanks, Dries Buytaert, for making Drupal free! This Drupal 7 site is possible only through your generosity in sharing through a GNU General Public License. This will be a commerce site eventually, and the magnitude of what you have done in making Drupal free, especially for small start-up companies, is an overwhelming gift. A billion thanks!
The best advice that we would pass along to businesses seeking to implement a Drupal-based site is to secure robust hosting from the beginning. Drupal is a work horse and requires attention to server resources. Depending on the functionality used for a business site, hosting needs may be well beyond what a non-Drupal site would require. For starters, check out Drupal Gardens, which offers free hosting of not-for-profit sites and paid hosting for enterprise sites. Or, contact Acquia for paid hosting of sites that are more complex than are supported by the basic Drupal Gardens platform. We are not connected in any way with Acquia; we just appreciate the quality of the resources provided, many of which are free. Thanks once again to Dries Buytaert, founder of both Drupal and Acquia, for freely sharing valuable resources for building dynamic websites that are on the forefront of technology.
If you would rather hire Drupal experts to build a site for you rather than doing it yourself, we recommend contacting The Worx Company, based in the USA and serving clients worldwide. The team at Worx are top-level contributors to the Drupal project and do excellent work, providing both site building and hosting. The Fashion Belle site is hosted on Worx servers, though we do our own development. Other Drupal service providers are listed at Drupal.org, but be cautious. Not all hosting services that claim to specialize in Drupal offer adequate support. Acquia, Worx and many other hosts are reliable. Obtaining personal recommendations about hosting from seasoned Drupal developers is the best way to avoid confusion about site problems that originate from inadequate hosting resources.
In the fashion and artistic fields, many companies have in the past utilized Flash-based graphics for website development. Apple's restriction of Flash in favor of HTML5 on iPhones and iPads has made most everyone aware of the security problems with Flash and the rising future of HTML5 for the web. When developing a new site or updating an old one, it is important to make the switch away from Flash to HTML5 standards.
Drupal is designed for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) out of the box, and many additional steps can be taken to enhance Drupal's natural capabilities for SEO. Webmasters should become lifelong students of the constantly changing field of SEO. Several of the most important SEO tips that have helped make the Fashion Belle site successful are as follows:
Above all, once the SEO basics are covered, do not allocate too much time focusing on SEO, aside from continuing your education as SEO best practices change. Rather, spend the most valuable hours of your time building a brand.
Yes, this is a Drupal website. Wordpress requires fewer server resources and administrator skills than the more complex and powerful Drupal platform, but the frequent security breaches that occur on Wordpress sites make it less desirable than the more secure Drupal. Drupal is also better for sites with multiple functionalities, including commerce.

Logan seventh-grader taking it one step at a time
Connor Alter looks like your typical, seventh-grade basketball player, full of energy and pep on the court for Princeton Logan Junior High.
Just eight months ago that scenario would not have been likely.
On Easter Sunday of this year, April 4, the Alters spent most of the day with their cousins at their grandparents house in Princeton. They later retreated back to the Alter's to wind down after being on good behavior, according to Connor's dad, Jay, and took a ride on their family's Kawasaki Mule.

Preview: Astros at Indians
The fast-charging Cleveland Indians hold one of the American League's two wild-card spots entering Saturday's home contest against the struggling Houston Astros. Cleveland's rain-shortened win on Friday was its seventh in nine games, and it vaulted the Indians past the skidding Texas Rangers by one-half game for the second wild card. Houston has lost seven consecutive games after dropping the first two conests of the four-game series, with both defeats coming by one run.The Astros made three errors in Friday's 6 1/2-inning game to fall to 51-103 - just four losses shy of last year's franchise mark. Cleveland has a favorable remaining schedule when it comes to the playoff chase, as two games with the Chicago White Sox and four against the Minnesota Twins follow the two remaining contests against Houston. The Indians, who are six games behind the Detroit Tigers in the AL Central, are 28-17 in one-run affairs.TV: 6:05 p.m. ET, CSN (Houston), STO (Cleveland)PITCHING MATCHUP: Astros RH Paul Clemens (4-5, 5.54 ERA) vs. Indians LH Scott Kazmir (8-9, 4.34) Clemens lost to the Los Angeles Angels in his last outing despite allowing just two runs and six hits in seven innings. He also fared well against the White Sox on Aug. 27, when he gave up one run and four hits over six frames in a no-decision. Clemens has allowed 15 homers in just 61 1/3 innings.Kazmir has lost consecutive starts and five of his last six decisions. He fell to Kansas City in his last turn, when he allowed four runs and seven hits in five-plus innings. Kazmir was tagged for six runs and eight hits in 3 1/3 frames by the Astros on April 20 but escaped with a no-decision in Cleveland's 19-6 victory.WALK-OFFS 1.

In any case, I am interested in purchasing a pulley if anyone knows of a source. Alternatively, I know a gunsmith that I might be able to convince to make some pulleys. Does anyone have a dimensioned drawing?

Dear Margo: How young is too young to be a bad person? I never would have thought it could happen in my family, but my granddaughter, 12, is miserable, angry, morbid and, as I've recently discovered, seemingly incapable of being a positive human being.
Last month, my son died in a car accident. He had been drinking, but I think the greater culprit was a slippery road after a heavy rain. I am devastated, but this girl has yet to even shed a tear. She was always an odd child: quiet, aloof, refusing to associate with her family unless forced to. The girl's father just died, and she doesn't seem bothered.
To make matters worse, she seems bizarrely fixated on other people's grief while not experiencing any of her own. She asks whether we've cried, how much we've cried, why we've cried. She even asked that I cry for her. My husband says I'm being unreasonable, but I really can't stand seeing this girl anymore. How can I be around a girl who could be so callous about the death of her own father?
At this point, I just want to cut her out of my family's life. But I do wish to see my grandson, my son's other child. I've wondered whether therapy or medication could fix my granddaughter's problems, but I suspect that she may be beyond help.
— Grandma Gives Up
Dear Grandma: The death aside, this child sounds unhappy and perhaps disturbed.
As for the loss of her father, her grieving behavior sounds unusual but not unfeeling. She may have suppressed her grief by displacing it onto others. The fact that she is discussing death makes me think the subject is on her radar. She might be in emotional, albeit not cognitive, denial. Instead of wishing not to deal with her, I would pay extra attention to her and try to get a dialogue going.
You say nothing of the child's mother, but a therapist would be helpful.
Dear Margo is compiled for Creators Syndicate by Margo Howard.

The candidates battling for the democratic nod in June's primary for the 7th congressional district discussed imperative issues at the Ocean Reef Hotel in Myrtle Beach Sunday.
Parnell Diggs, Ted Vick, Gloria Tinubu, and Preston Brittain all participated in the debate moderated by NewsChannel 15 anchor and Carolina this Week host Tim McGinnis.
The event was hosted by the Democratic Clubs of Horry County and the Myrtle Beach NAACP.
The new 7th congressional district will be anchored in Horry County and includes the counties of Georgetown, Marion, Dillon, Darlington, Marlboro, Chesterfield and a portion of Florence.
The event lasted for an hour and a half and included questions from a panel. Each candidate was given two minutes to answer the question. Below we've listed each question and highlights of each candidates answer.
Q-Jobs: What are you going to do to create more jobs, especially locally?
Parnell Diggs- "It's wise to have faith in the power of the American people to make a difference"
Preston Brittain- "Manufacturing. To Mexico alone we've lost 680,000 jobs, most of which, have been manufacturing jobs."
Ted Vick- "There are things that we can cut back on and put our priorities on things like i73, the dredging of the port"
Gloria Tinubu- "One of the things is to invest in a solid, public system of education…we've got to do that we need to have young people who are competitive with those students that they'll be faced with in the international economy."
Q-Gas prices have been rising. How do you plan to promote energy independence?
Parnell Diggs- "We are drilling more in our country more than ever before. I'm not sure we're going to convince the oil companies to lower prices just because we're producing oil in the U.S., we need to look at alternative sources and quick protecting the oil so much."
Ted Vick- "We have to have a sustainable model where we use our own sustainable energy, We need to invest in bio-mass and bio-diesel, and natural gas. Mine our own soils in an environmentally friendly way."
Gloria Tinubu-"There's a Georgetown county company looking at algae for energy. We need to invest in wind and solar energy, and use agriculture industry to explore new ideas."
Preston Brittain- "Domestic drilling part of the solution invest in alternative forms of energy. We need to invest in wind, solar power, hydrofracking if there's more environmentally friendly way to do it."
Q- How do you plan to get projects like I-73 finished and getting money from Washington?
Parnell Diggs- "We need to consider the infrastructure in place. I noticed our friends in Dillon feel left out, in Dillon county and Marlboro County, we need to keep in mind the affect that has on the businesses."
Ted Vick- "I have already worked in Columbia, we had a bill passed to identity toll roads. You have to lobby for it, you have to win the hearts and minds of the people."
Gloria Tinubu- "The effort would have to be part of a national effort to improve transportation and we'd have to work with other parts of country. I would work cooperate with Congressman Clyburn to ensure we have the resources, but it also has to be done at the state level."
Preston Brittain- "The democrats budget includes 47 billion for infrastructure. That's a budget that would allow us to build I-73. This should be an easy sell for us. I'm going to be pushing for common sense solutions and building I-73 is the most common sense solution."
Q-In regards to the real estate markets, what would you do to avoid a repeat of the collapse we've seen?
Parnell Diggs-"I'm not sure the Dod Frank act went too far."
Ted Vick-"Every home mortgage out to be adjusted to 3% immediately."
Gloria Tinubu-"We've got to go back and make sure we reinstate Glass-Steagall Act.
Preston Brittain- "Protect your consumer. Watch the selling of derivatives. We have to be careful of overregulation."
Q- How would you lower the national deficit?
Parnell Diggs-"The Bush tax cuts have hurt us so badly, we have to take one bite at a time to get it reduce."
Ted Vick-"We need to look at deficit spending, programs including military programs, and we need to balance our budget."
Gloria Tinubu-"Those people at the top percent, they have to pay their fare share. There is no question about that. We have to do something about separating our capital budget with our general expense budget. We don't separate our capital budget from our regular spending."
Preston Brittain-"The top one percent has seen their income double. We have to let the Bush tax cuts expire on the supper wealthy, consider the buffet rule, and give more cuts for middle class, like parents sending their kids to school. We need to ask top 1% to pay their fare share"
Q What are your thoughts on Voter ID?
Parnell Diggs- "I had announced publicly that I would allow free services from my law offices to people who would be denied the right to vote."
Ted Vick-"I voted against the voter id bill in the house. Anything that stops the voter's right to get out and vote is morally wrong."
Gloria Tinubu- "It's clearly one of the issue that is so undemocratic for what this country stands for. We as a party have to fight this, not only in our state, but in numerous states across the nation."
Preston Brittain-"This maybe one of the most frustrating, and one of the most sad."
Q- More and more jobs are requiring a post secondary degree. What do you think about making that more accessible?
Parnell Diggs-"I'm a product of the system, we've got to have a federal education system."
Ted Vick-"The GI bill is a good thing that helps. So are Pell grants. I will fight hard, I believe in education. It's the only true way that can get someone out of poverty."
Gloria Tinubu-"Not having an educated workforce is a national security issue, and we have to make a college education more affordable."
Preston Brittain - "Federal education funding is only 10.8 percent. We have to address the rising cost of tuition. We need to let schools know that we're serious by cutting federal funding to colleges that continue to gauge tuition. We also need to increase pell grants."
Q- What are you thoughts on campaign finance by the PAC and Super PACs?
Parnell Diggs-"I think about how I have raised money. It's been from blind friends of mine. All i can do is get and meet people the old fashioned way. Elections are not there to be bought, they are there to be earned."
Ted Vick-"I'm a pro business democrat, but until a corporation can pick up a weapon and stand a post they should never have the right regular citizens can. The 527's need to be outlawed."
Gloria Tinubu- "Unless we go to public financing of elections, you're not going to have good solid people running for office. That's the thing that we have to do."
Preston Brittain- "I think we need to reform. I do not have a specific plan yet."
Q What issues would you plan to champion specific to contraception?
Parnell Diggs- "There are a lot of women who have other medical reasons who justify the reasons for contraception. I will preserve the right for women to receive contraception service and that insurance should pay for it."
Ted Vick- "It's more radical as we go along, that's why this seat is so important. What are we doing? Do we really want some slick politician to tell us how we should plan our families?"
Gloria Tinubu- "We can not go back to the old days. We should not even be having this conversation."
Preston Brittain- "We know preventative measures other than family planning. They are wasting our time, they are wasting our tax dollars."
Q-There's been a lot of division with Congress across party lines. What is one thing you agree with the republicans about?
Parnell Diggs- "Let's agree to disagree on something's. We all want better education and we want economic prosperity. I'm sure the republicans love their children as I love my son."
Ted Vick- "I agree we need to balance the budget, I don't agree with how they want to do it. We work hard, we compromise and we come up with something that moves the country."
Gloria Tinubu- "I'm sorry I can not think of a single thing. I can't I just don't, but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't be able to look at a position of what is in the best interest of this country."
Preston Brittain- "One of the things is creating a competitive corporate tax rate for a company that brings jobs back to this country. Close the loopholes, but I agree we need to do something to get the jobs back in America."
Q- Are there aspects of the Affordable Healthcare Act you feel are non-negotiable?
Parnell Diggs-"When you look at the Affordable healthcare act some say it's unconstitutional. How many of us have been denied coverage by a pre-existing condition? I'm going to fight to preserve, if anything we ought to expand it."
Ted Vick - "I resent that they call it Obamacare. Congress passed it. It's a law that can be amended. I want to know from republicans about how they can fix it."
Gloria Tinubu- "Pre-existing conditions, having our young people, 26 and younger still to be carried is non negotiable. The provision that make women to access health care, the preventative is also non negotiable. I know people are concerned about the mandate, the way the system is going to work is because we are going to have more economies of scale because we are going to have more people in the system."
Preston Brittain-"Pre-exisitng conditions-that's good. We need to keep that. It closes the prescription doughnut hole, we need to keep that. We need to get more American's insured. I'm concerned about the mandates, but creating a marketplace for competition will help us with healthcare costs."
