Local fans have been on pins and needles waiting for the expected return of Kobe Bryant. Many of them seem to think that he can just step back on the court, after the absence of about one year, and nothing would have changed. If they were expecting the Kobe Bryant who had won championships here, then they were sorely disappointed. When they are at their peak, great players make any game look easy. The reality is that they are not easy, and even great athletes have to work hard in order to play them well.
The reality is that Bryant, with his incredible talent and unbelievable work ethic, may not be able to make a successful comeback. This is the potential reality that many fans do not want to deal with. However, history has shown that even the most devoted fans can be extremely fickle. One day they love you, the next day they do not. Yes, even his most ardent fans and Staples Center will boo him, if he is unable to meet their expectations.
I have tried to envision a scenario with a happy ending for Bryant and the Lakers. Right now, I just don't see how that can happen, and that makes me sad. The present team cannot even compete for a championship, and they will be fortunate if they get into the Playoffs. The coaching style of their present coach would not be compatible for even a much younger and healthier Bryant. He is under contract to play two more years, after this season. Something is going to have to give. When that decision day arrives, the results are not likely to be pleasant or popular. In the meantime, we can all keep hoping for the best.
Pasadena's most fortunate in that it will have two Bowl Games. The one on January 1, 2014, will be the traditional Rose Bowl game between Stanford and Michigan State. In my opinion all of the other Bowls pale in comparison to the one on New Year's Day. This is the one with the Floats in the world's most beautiful Parade. It tops everything else, and has rightfully earned the title, "The Granddaddy of all of the Bowl Games." At the center of the excitement will be David Shaw, the African American head coach of the Stanford Cardinal.

On-campus dining is the reason for the "Mizzou 22." Many other college students gain the Freshman 15, but at Mizzou, students like to take it a step further. Mizzou has a lot of different dining halls: Rollins, Dobbs, Eva J's, and Plaza 900—to name a few. Students prefer to eat at Plaza 900 and Rollins because they are the newly renovated dining halls and seem to offer more food options, but the others provide the same quality of food.
Other than the dining halls, MU's campus has a Subway, but in May 2011, the University took the McDonald's out of Lowry Mall. Students can walk downtown and have a different variety of food. Chipotle, Shakespeare's Pizza, Campus Bar and Grill, Noodles & Company, and Domino's are just some food places located right off campus.

Did you read the article? Exactly what is it that makes you believe police were in pursuit? As you mentioned, innocent people are dead here. Why don't you stop making up scenarios that have no basis in fact, and stop blaming the police?

League President and Hamtramck Mayor Karen Majewski and Bizarre Foods America Host Andrew Zimmern.
DETROIT, Michigan - If you want to be inspired by the many great things taking place in Michigan you need look no further than the Feb. 20, 2012, episode of "Bizarre Foods America: Detroit" on the Travel Channel that included Michigan Municipal League President and Hamtramck Mayor Karen Majewski.Yes, the show was about host Andrew Zimmern tasting all the unique foods found in the Detroit area - from smoked pig's head in Detroit to a pljeskavica burger in Hamtramck to a break-the-fast Ramadan family feast in Dearborn. But it also shined a bright light on the Detroit area discussing the diversity and rich cultural heritage in southeast Michigan. It even included a great segment on the Detroit Mower Gang, a group of people making a difference in Detroit by mowing and maintaining parks that the city can no longer afford to maintain. The group cooks up raccoon among other things for Zimmern.Prominently featured in the episode was Majewski. Majewski and Zimmern visit several restaurants in Hamtramck trying out a variety of foods in the highly cultural diverse Hamtramck. Majewski said she spent five hours with Zimmern and took him to Srodek's Quality Sausage, Sheeba's (Yemeni), Amar Pizza (Bangladeshi), and Palma Restaurant (Bosnian). The Palma segment is viewable only online."We really appreciated being included in this show that featured Detroit-area restaurants, markets, and other food venues," Majewski said. "Clearly, a whole series could be focused on the Detroit area alone. Hamtramck is well known for its variety of great food options, and the city shone in all its diversity and vibrancy. Andrew Zimmern couldn't have been more gracious, and his crew more fun to work with, during the five hours it took to shoot what ended up being a 15-minute segment. We hope he'll come back for more great food, and we hope other visitors will take the cue and eat their way around the world right here in Hamtramck."The full show does a great job highlighting some of the "placemaking" assets the Michigan Municipal League believes make up great 21st Century Communities, including multiculturalism and diversity; cultural economic development and civic engagement.In case you missed the show, there are several video clips of it on the Travel Channel's website.

EASTPOINTE, Michigan - With more than 40 percent of its population born outside the United States, the City of Hamtramck, Michigan, has a very diverse community. With this diversity brings some challenges, but also tremendous opportunity and a positive outlook for the future.
This was the message of Hamtramck Mayor Karen Majewski during a Michigan Municipal League education seminar Wednesday, May 5, 2010, in Eastpointe, Michigan. The seminar was the first of seven regional meetings the League is having throughout the state this month and next. The meetings will each focus on one of the eight assets identified by the League as making viable communities. The focus of Wednesday's event was multiculturalism and nearly 40 officials from southeast Michigan attended. It was fitting that the seminar also took place on May 5 – Cinco de Mayo.
"In my one block where I live, we have Bosnians, Polish, Polish Americans, Bangladeshi, African Americans, Ukrainian Americans, and non-differentiated Americans on that one small block," Majewski said. "When you live in a community like this there are many advantages, especially to the children. It also takes us closer to the kind of world we all want to live in and the kind we all eventually will be living in. It's not always easy and fun and it can be a challenge, but it really is a joy. Hamtramck welcomes everyone. The face of Hamtramck is the face of a new kind of America and a kind of America that is closer to all our ideals."
Majewski talked about the many different festivals, unique businesses and restaurants that are in Hamtramck, due in part, to having such a diverse community. Joining Majewski in the multiculturalism discussion was Chandra McMillion, facilitator of the Advocates and Leaders for Police and Community Trust and president of the McMillion Group.
McMillion talked about a venture by police departments in southeast Michigan to work together to break-down ethnic barriers. It was a great discussion and really opened eyes about some of the exciting things happening in our communities. Other topics discussed at the meeting were a presentation by Norma Rivas Ricci about the 2010 U.S. Census; a talk by the League's Chris Hackbarth about what's happening in Lansing involving the League's legislative team; an introduction to the League's Center for 21st Century Communities program by the League's Colleen Layton; information about the environmentally friendly programs by the League's Sue Jeffers; and a report on the Let's Save Michigan campaign by Sean Mann.
Southeast Michigan communities represented at the meeting were the cities of Berkley, Center Line, Dearborn, Eastpointe, Garden City, Grosse Pointe Woods, Hamtramck, Howell, Huntington Woods, Inkster, Madison Heights, Monroe, Mount Clemens, New Baltimore, Plymouth, Roseville, Southfield, Sterling Heights, Troy, Utica, Wayne and Utica.
The next regional meeting is May 12-14 in Ispheming. Learn about the other upcoming regional meetings here.

If you start to feel bad, just remember people complain about Bryan Stars posts on HIS facebook page.
Never Do This At A Show, Ever
The Story So Far played a show in Texas last night. During one of the band's song, a fan made their way onto the stage and kissed frontman Parker Cannon without his consent or desire. This is never okay to do at a show, especially to a band that you apparently respect and love.
The Story So Far, in general, are also a band that fight to play shows at venues without barricades so their fans can enjoy the set to its fullest. Situations like these are what make bands want to play behind barricades. You can watch a video of the event below after the jump.

Don't be DAM stupid this summer
Seqwater and the Queensland Police Service have joined forces to launch a campaign encouraging the public to be 'DAM smart' on and around south east Queensland dams over summer.
Seqwater is responsible for 24 dams and 49 weirs as well as 46 operational water treatment plants across South East Queensland.
As part of the summer safety campaign, Seqwater Rangers and Queensland Police will be conducting patrols around our major dams. These patrols will involve random breath-testing of boat operators and drivers, as well as monitoring dangerous or anti-social behaviour.
Seqwater Chief Executive Officer, Mr Peter Borrows, said the organisation was expecting record numbers this Christmas with the region's major recreational dams at their highest level in more than eight years.
"With the current combined capacity of our three major dams at over 71 per cent, more than 150,000 people are expected to visit and vacation at recreation areas across Seqwater dams over the Christmas and New Year period," Mr Borrows said.
"Our campaign using the slogan "Don't be DAM stupid" is designed to educate people to 'rethink' their behaviour both on and around our dams to provide a safe environment for everyone. The majority of our visitors are very well behaved and make the most of our facilities, but in previous years there have been a small number whose behaviour has had the potential to put others at risk – dangerous and anti-social behaviour affects everyone.
"We are urging people to be 'DAM smart' - for example, boats and jet skiers keeping their distance from swimmers and paddlers; being courteous to other people whether it be on boat ramps, campsites and on the road; not littering and importantly, supervising children at all times. Our facilities are for the entire community to enjoy."
Mr Borrows added: "It is important to remind the community that as well as recreational activities, Seqwater's dams and surrounding catchments provide our drinking water supply for present needs and future generations."
Ipswich District Queensland Police Inspector, Merv Adamson said police would be based at Somerset Dam during the school holidays and would be targeting anti-social behaviour across all the recreational areas, including drink driving both on land and water over the Christmas-New Year period.
"This is not about stopping people enjoying themselves and having fun, it is about ensuring people act responsibly and consider the safety and comfort of others," Inspector Adamson said.
As part of the campaign, Seqwater Rangers and Queensland Police will be monitoring:
- Excessive alcohol consumption
- Boaties & jet skiers keeping their distance from swimmers and paddlers – 30 metres for boats and 60 metres for jet skies
- People speeding in designated six-knot zones
- People swimming in non-designated areas
- Boating or fishing after dusk
Seqwater would like to remind visitors:
- Individual permits are required for boating at Somerset and Wivenhoe
- Fishing permits are required for most dams where fishing is permitted (Further information on individual sites can be found on www.seqwater.com.au)
- Camping is only permitted in designated camp sites. Rangers will be on the look out for illegal campers on private property
- While some public cooking facilities are available, visitors are advised to bring their own gas bottles and cooking equipment. The lighting of open fires is prohibited.

There's photos here. The damage is pretty serious.
There's photos here. The damage is pretty serious.
They burned too many customers with "enterprise" devices that'd fail almost immediately, then treating the customers like shit when they did.
They bet too heavily on high performance, while not maintaining the kind of behavior that would bring back the customers who want devices like that.
The reason Dell and HP can get away with burning customers is simple: there's always another person who needs a cheap laptop.
Not many people need a new PCIe SSD.
Good riddance.
Generally speaking, if you call the host and say "I need a line without caps, can you quote me a price," they will.
Oftentimes you'll have to call it a business line though.
Verizon FIOS caps are so far in the sky that you're unlikely ever to hit them.
Would be nice if they'd work on getting their service working instead.
Six months of having to use Google DNS because they can't run a goddamned DNS server.
Emotions are just really,really bad stuff to use to make law.
Frustratingly, the same thing can be said of the law which started this whole mess in the first place.
If this was self defense rather than "stand your ground," the whole thing would have been far simpler.
it is an insistence that Zimmerman's right to presumption of innocence be taken to absolutist heights of absurdity
Sorry, no. In the United States, if there is not proof, you are not guilty, no matter how often you might use begging words like "absurdity."
There is a legitimate, plausible alternative explanation, and the medical examiner said that Zimmerman was one or two skull-whacks from dead.
That *is* reasonable doubt, whether you agree or not, according to a jury of his peers.
Zimmerman's rights must be weighed against Martin's
RIghts weighting happens in civil cases. Never, ever in criminal cases.
Martin's right to life is treated in such relativist terms
You're just mis-using legal sounding words and waving your hands around. Court operates by strict rules. There was only one question on the docket: can we prove that Zimmerman did this? The answer came back "no."
There is no question of a dead man's right to life in a murder trial until intent is established.
Otherwise, we would have to conclude that courts can cherrypick when the different rights of people come into conflict.
My opinion is that you have shown no adequate logic which leads to this conclusion.
If he did attack Zimmerman and had lived, his sentence would have been what...
I'm guessing, since it depends on who prosecuted, what quality of job they did, whether Martin swayed them at all, whether the judge permitted the age to be taken into account, and probably most compellingly, just how bad the assault was.
Since the medical examiner said two more of those whacks and Zimmerman would be dead, I feel that it's quite likely that Zimmerman now has brain damage. Now I don't know about Florida, but I think in California that's an automatic upgrade to PC 245(a)(1) Assault with a Deadly Weapon, and then it's state felony $10k + 2-4 years per count (that is, every time he smashes his head into the ground, it's another 2-4 years) plus restitution (which, for brain injuries, can easily be six or seven figures.)
So what do you figure, four before Zimmerman got the gun pointed the right way? I mean, it's completely hypothetical.
But that's 8-16 for the head to concrete alone. Then there's all the other missteps along the way, and if they're out for blood, they'll charge each one.
It doesn't really matter if Zimmerman is credible.
Innocent until proven guilty. It's a pithy slogan until you have to apply it; then it's gut wrenching to stay austere.
Can you prove guilt?
The way the law reads, lethal force is allowed if a reasonable person in his position would think that their life is in danger.
I am not disputing you. However, I have never liked this; it legitimizes fear without evidence as a reason to attack, and lets after the fact judgment of others be an excuse for why.
Yes, I realize a hard line to be taken on this is impractical; how do you know whether you're stopping a rape or two consenting adults in edge play, etc.
But it still makes me uncomfortable, and seems almost certain in my opinion to cause far more harm than it prevents.
This should, in my opinion, fall under "I was being attacked and thought I was in self defense." That's really quite different than standing one's ground; Zimmerman was doing no such thing.
This means, for instance, that if someone has every appearance of intending to beat you to death, you have a right to use lethal force, regardless of what his actual plans were.
Someday, the tragic punchline to this sentence will be "Happy Halloween."
Actually, in most of America it's quite illegal to follow people at night with a loaded firearm.
there is a growing group of people who simply cannot debate ideas
I wonder why you think this is new.
For context, these people generally do not make impacts on history, and are as such forgotten. Next generation won't know about most of our creeps, just like we don't know about most of the previous generation's creeps.
Similarly, people who think classic rock is better than today's music are forgetting everything but the really good stuff. When's the last time you listened to Mott the Hoople?
I think you might be missing his point. Jury selection is not a random sampling, nor is it supposed to be. That jury is supposed to be representative, and it was not.
I think what he meant was "what is the chance that two professional lawyers in a high profile case could go through voir dire and produce a jury this likely to cause later racially toned misapprehension?"
The prosecution should have ensured at least one man, at least one black person, and at least one person from that neighborhood on the jury. The defense should have had at least one man and at least one white person. As much as most Americans (I myself am one) will react poorly to that as if it's a form of discriminatory deck stacking, that's actually how the system is supposed to work; these are the people who, in the decision making process, are supposed to bring germane context to the proceeding. This is why jury nullification is ever a topic in America - in a "queer bashing" there should be a gay person there to explain to the others what it's like to be in the victim's shoes, etc.
Hydrogen is not a power source, it's an energy storage medium.
I have never liked this line of argument. After all, it's essentially true of gasoline, too; it's just that nature did the work. (And, in a lot of cases, the hydrogen is mined too; yay natural gas.) Both are chemicals which are oxidized to release heat energy. If the meaningful difference is whether nature or we did the work, then they're both storage media.
You go on to cite energy capacity differences; those are only meaningful in apples to apples comparisons.
Any line of reasoning that assumes hydrogen is a power source - rather than just a storage medium with very poor energy density - is unfortunately based on a flawed premise.
I don't think this is actually correct.
Where do you find the actual meaningful difference to be? It's apparently not in that they're both exothermic chemistry based on the same element.
Other power sources aren't even remotely similar - eg nuclear, wind.
Why are two things that are virtually identical being seen as distinct? Is the issue whether nature put the power in instead of us? Is the difference between a power source and an energy storage medium found solely in whether you primarily imagine our having to put energy in to make them viable?
Does gasoline become an energy storage medium, despite zero actual changes, when they start sourcing it from CO2 in the atmosphere?
What is the meaningful net effect of being in one category or the other? You seem to be suggesting that the problem isn't just the energy density (and that in itself is misleading in many ways,) but rather a more sophisticated issue of whether it's a source or a medium - and that that is what's undermining their thought.
You can get hydrogen out of the ground, and you can spend energy to manufacture gasoline from the air, both today. If they're both sourced that way, does that mean that the lines of reasoning you're whargarbling at without actually showing an error, merely stating that there is one, suddenly become more ratified?
What if it happened to cost as much energy to get gasoline out of the ground as is received by burning it? That isn't the case today, but someday it will be, unless we stop using it. On that day, will it have become an energy storage medium?
Is the line about whether we have to invest energy to derive energy from it? Because calling something an energy storage medium based on how much power it takes to acquire seems ridiculous to me, as much so as does classing one chemical exothermic with nuclear and wind but against another chemical exothermic based on production rate, but I can't see any definition that seperates the two that doesn't end up with that apparent nonsense result.
Why is it that so many hydrogen cars and busses are actually doing well, if it's such a flawed premise?
Why are you measuring energy per liter? Liter is a unit of volume. The amount of energy per liter here is a direct function of pressure. No mention is made of pressure in two of the three cases.
Cryogenically stored? Room temperature? The temperature of the hydrogen or gasoline has virtually nothing to do with the amount of energy released by burning it.
Where did you get these numbers? They don't agree with the ones on Wikipedia. Granted, I'm a Wikipedia skeptic; if you can cite a valid source I'm happy to take it, but I remain somewhat doubtful that you'll be able to.
The proper measure here is not the energy density; that is and always has been asinine. The proper measure here is the specific energy - that is, by weight, not by volume. Hydrogen doesn't become a better fuel (oh sorry, "energy storage medium,") just because you put it under pressure. That's ridiculous. What matters is how much energy you can carry by weight, allowing for a practical limit on storage size. Hydrogen as a whole is not meaningfully better as a storage medium every time you learn to make an improved storage tank.
Hydrogen cars have worked very well for 30 years. They're cheap, they're efficient, and they let us move the burden of production to better controlled sources than a small engine. And no, that's not because of some phantom line between media and sources; the same thing would be true if you chose to distill gasoline from the air, which many people are doing, just not yet at market cost. If gasoline is both a fuel and a power storage medium, then I submit to you with respect that the distinction is masturbatory garbage, and does not in fact exist at all.
The real problem with hydrogen cars is simple: you can't get fuel just about anywhere you go. Chicken and egg.
Who doesn't save up at least a tiny bit of money (say 3 months salary) in case of a fucking emergency?

Sedu Revolution Perfect Style 3600i Hair Dryer Set
Sedu Revolution Pro 3600i Lightweight Io...L - 23NYHairDark BrownCurly HairColor Treated HairYou Get What You Pay ForI've usually been a firm believer that when a product costs more it is usually of better quality, and this case is no different. I have long-curly-color treated hair, not the completely unmanageable kind but still a pain to style. In fact, I hate blowing out my hair more than anything. Having used Conair hair dryers for most of my life, I didn't really think it mattered what the quality of the hair dryer was, but the talent of the person using it. After finally investing in this dryer, I was proven wrong. It is very powerful and the Ion boost makes a significant difference in frizz/smoothness. Due to the power of the tool, it can definitely cut your drying time, however, it is no miracle worker, you still have to make an effort (unfortunately). I chose this Sedu because I thought it was the lightest, though I am not entirely sure that is true, it is still very lightweight which is a plus for long haired ladies. I am very happy with the purchase especially since I bought it during a promotion and it came with some goodies, but I give it four stars instead of five because it can get very hot and I am definitely nervous sometimes that I can burn my scalp if I am not careful. Other than that, I would say, wait for a good deal on Folica.com and Happy Drying!posted May 30, 2013Link to this post
Sedu Revolution Pro 3600i Lightweight Io...Andrea D.Long Island, NYHairDark BrownNormal HairFine or Thin HairHair Raising ResultsMy old dryer was dying. Locally the choices were a bit pricey for the run of mill low end dryers so I turned to Folica to watch their video on how to choose the best dryer for your needs. Very helpful. I decided to take thier advice and go with a professional level A/C motor tourmaline and ionic features. HOWEVER, I have Rheumatoid arthrtis and I am tired of achy hands, wrist and shoulders from the weight of the dryer. I wanted LIGHTWEIGHT. This Sedu kept coming up and it looked to be the lightest. IT IS! No more pain from using the dryer. It is pretty quiet, small but very powerful and so ergonomically comfortable it makes it even easier to use. The price was excellent, the product is excellent and the quality is excellent. I have used it daily now most of the month so it has already gotten a bit of use t hat I can safely make the above claims. It does not frizz out my hair as I have fine thin hair and it really lets me control things so the style comes out the way I want, to the point I do not even need to add the hot rollers to get the lift or curve I want. I big brush and this dryer is all I now need. I think you will be pleased should you choose it. I am a bit picky and like to read up no end before choosing a product, and this one I LOVE.posted May 15, 2013Link to this post

My hair is very fine with some natural wave, so requires some product to bring out the curl. Sedu does an ok job of this. It smells fantastic, but I don't get nearly as much curl as I get from Alterna.

Sedu Revolution Pro 3600i Lightweight Io...EmpressNYCHairBlackThick or Coarse HairDepends On Your Hair--can Be Too Much Of A Good Thingi'm growing out my hair (now past my shoulder) to donate to pantene lengths and needed a way to tame my hair without flat-ironing or japanese straightening which can damage hair. i have wavy asian hair and when let to dry after washing, twists and warps into all sorts of different unflattering waves.
my foray into pricy blow dryers came last month when i used my sister's $100 rusk speed freak. loved the results...fast and quiet. it left my blow out manageable, light with just the right amount of volume with minimal frizz. the best part was the blow out lasted into the second and third day (with a tiny bit of dry shampoo). at no point did my hair appear or feel oily (except for a little bit on the roots--that's where the dry shampoo comes in). i have never gotten sooooo many compliments in three days and thought well, if a $100 dryer works this well, something like the sedu 3600i would be even better.
the following week, after my purchase and a shampoo later i blew out my hair with the sedu the same way as i always have--round barrel brush and a tiny amount of chi silk infusion at the tips. it was very lightweight, easy to maneuver, and the buttons on the backside was great for not getting in the way but made it difficult to change settings quickly. also, the cool shot button was very awkward in that it's not raised from the handle. anyhow, the blow out was fast, easy and awesome! i did have the ionic button on the whole time and my hair was sleek, straight, shiny and felt not dried out. there was still some frizz up top from where some new growth was coming out. anyhow, at the end, i was in love! my hair felt silky, soft and looked like a commercial.
however, not 4 hours later, the ends started to curl again with my hair going limp and losing whatever body it had right after the blow dry (my other experiences with other blow dryers didn't have my hair go limp this quickly). then a few more hours after, my hair from root to tip felt and looked slick and oily. i don't know if it's the strong ionic output but it was odd. i blew out my hair again and the same happened another time. someone had suggested that i switch the ionic on and off but i thought for this price and what all goes into a blow out, i just didn't want to add another layer of complexity to the blow out like how much time and when and what temperature to change the ionic output.
other than that, it is an amazing blow dryer--just not for my hair after more than a few hours. i am planning on buying the rusk speed freak.posted Mar 13, 2013Link to this post -
Sedu Beach Beauty Sea Salt SprayJeanneFloridaHairBlondeCurly HairFine or Thin HairChemically Treated HairI'm A Believer!!! Best Product Hands Down For Curly/wavy HairI read about this product when Folica sent me an email about how to style curly/wavy hair without heat. I have tried everything, I mean every gel, mousse,moraccan oil product for over 20 years. I've had my hair professionally styled in salons, they all made my hair frizzy, poofy and super dry! I had given up on being able to wear my hair naturally by having it dry naturally or using a difusser. Super skeptical, I ordered this product and tried it immediately. I applied it just as the videos showed and I'm telling you I got exactly what I have been trying to get from my natural hair for over 20 years. It is not greasy, it is not overwhelming in fragrance and it makes my natural wavy/curly hair so amazing without heat and it stays perfect ALL DAY even in the wind!! This product does EXACTLY what it says it will do. It leaves my hair soft, NOT FRIZZY, natural and when they say you can twist your hair and let it dry I'm telling you, it dries just like that!!! Then you can gently separate the curls or wave and your hair looks AMAZING! I DON'T HAVE TO BLOW MY HAIR STRAIGHT EVER AGAIN if I don't want to. I will buy this product over and over. Let's hope then never stop making it.posted Feb 22, 2013Link to this post

Blade Runner. Back to the Future. The Fifth Element. Science fiction classics that all have one thing in common: flying cars.
Whether it's gliding taxi cabs or hovering DeLoreans, Hollywood has embraced the idea of a vehicle that is as happy on the motorway as it is in the clouds. But away from the silver screen, this science fiction staple has failed to take off.
Over the years, there have been ambitious and attempts – such as the Taylor Aerocar - but few would agree that the designs are in any way practical or user-friendly.
But the ever increasing number of cars on the roads means that a vehicle that can soar into the skies remains an attractive option. "We need to try to relive congestion on our road, and one potential solution is an aerial vehicle" says Dr Michael Jump, a lecturer in aerospace at Liverpool University in the UK.
He is behind one of a clutch of firms and projects that aim to ensure the flying car doesn't remain grounded for another century.
One of the most high-profile attempts is the Transition, an aircraft that can fold its wings, allowing it to also operate as a street-legal road vehicle. Terrafugia, the company behind the machine, see owners driving their car to an airport where the wings can be deployed for take-off. Once in the air, the vehicle has a range of 740 km (460 miles) on a single tank of regular unleaded fuel and, can carry two people plus luggage.
The machine, which had its first successful test flight earlier this year, will cost around $300,000 and is scheduled for release in 2012. Wanabee pilots will only need to have completed 20 hours of observed flying time to take to the skies.
Hot on its contrails is the PAL-V (personal air and land vehicle), which looks more like a mini-helicopter than plane. The machine, developed by a Dutch firm, is actually an autogyro, with a propeller at the rear to provide forward thrust and a free-spinning rotor to give it lift. On the ground, it operates more like a streamlined tricycle that is able to lean into corners at high speeds.
It has a similar range (560km/350 miles) and speed to the Transition (110mph/180 km/h) and is also expected to cost around $300,000. The firm is still looking for investment to help with what it calls "the birth of a new class of vehicles".
'Tomorrow's reality'
While projects like the Transition and PAL-V aim to slot into our current transport systems, a EU-funded project called myCopter is pushing for a complete rethink. Rather than driving a car that is compromised by a requirement to fly, or flying a vehicle that is compromised by needing to drive like a car, Dr Jump's team is looking to a future where we whizz to work in Personal Aerial Vehicles (PAVs) with dedicated highways in the sky.
"This project is looking at how the air transport industry might change over the next 150 years," says Dr Michael Jump, a lecturer in aerospace at Liverpool University.
It has already identified a number of key problems that need to be solved to make personal air transport a success.
First, is the design of the craft. The team wanted to design something that had the "familiarity of a car". But other than that, says Dr Jump, "all bets are off".
Some of the design proposals for the exterior of myCopter show a suitably futuristic looking vehicle, that would not look out of place in George Jetson's garage. The system is a hybrid of a light aircraft and helicopter. It has three helicopter type rotors, but they are embedded within the large triangular wing that makes up the top surface of the aircraft, one on each side, and one on at the back. These embedded rotors are known as ducted fans, which can create greater thrust at higher safety, albeit with less efficiency.

20 Dollar Gold Coins
The best time to purchase gold or buy silver has yet to occur. But one of the best time to purchase could be in the not too distant future. Traders purchase gold and different precious metals in occasions of high economic uncertainty. Keep your eye on the next three catalysts that might send costs soaring. If none come to cross, it isn't the most effective time to buy gold or silver - yet.
Precious metals prices will not be exactly cheap with the yellow steel at $1100 an ounce and the white things at about $17. They've come a great distance previously decade... from lower than $300 and just some bucks, respectively. In early 2010 there was no compelling motive to purchase gold or purchase silver. But things could change, and it wouldn't be pretty. Let's discuss INFLATION, THE DOLLAR, and the U.S. NATIONAL DEBT.
Inflation has been tame for years, however this might change if the government cash printed (borrowed) to combat the monetary disaster and recession inflates prices. Many economists worry rising prices. An excessive amount of cash chasing too few goods and services equals inflation. In the past, a main best time to buy gold & silver: when inflation soars. Preserve your eyes open, it may happen.
The U.S. greenback has gained floor not too long ago in opposition to different major currencies, and is still the world's forex of choice. If the world loses confidence within the buck, the greenback may fall out of bed. A plunging dollar undoubtedly suggests the perfect time to buy gold. Why? Gold is quoted and traded in dollars. The decrease the worth of a dollar, the extra of them it takes to buy a troy ounce of gold. Silver costs normally follow in lockstep.
And then there's the nationwide debt of more than $12 trillion, climbing on the fee of over a trillion a 12 months in finances deficits. The $12 trillion figure is the marketed quantity, and doesn't embody the unfunded debt obligations estimated by some authoritative sources to be in the neighborhood of $50 trillion. What happens if and when the rest of the world loses confidence within the financial power of the U.S. authorities and economy?
Japan and China and the remainder of the world personal numerous the debt we've floated to stay afloat and pay our bills. These debts take the type of U.S. government securities known as Treasury payments, notes, and bonds. These securities are closely traded on the open market. If you happen to personal them, you can sell them at will. Huge sell orders could devastate the value of these securities, our credibility, and economy. This is able to not solely be the very best time to buy gold, it might create an financial panic.
How could the U.S. service its massive debt when nobody was any longer keen to lend them their money? Speak about a high level of worry and uncertainty... in right now's world this might be the ultimate. An American shopping for precious steel wouldn't be an act of greed. Relatively, an act of survival. Let's hope this greatest time to purchase gold never occurs. The good news, if you wish to name it that, is that several countries in Europe are much more debt ridden than America is.
Like I said before, treasured metals are not crucial low-cost at present prices. Ought to some mixture of the three above eventualities evolve, it may very well be a complete totally different story. Within the meantime, you may wish to consider treasured metals for 5% or so of your complete funding portfolio. When real dangerous news hits, prices transfer quickly.

Mind over Matter: review from Prog Archives
The following review for Mind over Matter appeared on progarchives.com
Five years have passed since the previous album "Conspiracy Theories" and finally comes a new album by guitarist Phil Miller and his band In Cahoots! Phil is a meticulous composer and it takes time to achieve the level found on this new album. We notice at first that a new horn section appears for the first time here, with saxophonist Paul Booth and trumpetist Mark Armstrong replacing respectively Picard and Finch. Then after listening to the album two three times, one general impression that struck me is the care taken to complex melodic voicings! Sometimes unisson lines form the theme, other times the melodic rose opens up in a harmonic contrapuntic motion, the chordal being the melody. A labour of love, impressive and emotionally working on the listener's fibers. The album starts with a gigant 18-minutes long medley of epic proportions. From the very beginning, some of Hatfield & the North's spirit caress your ear, the *theme* being here a long and complex chord progression opening the way to multiple harmonic modulations and a strong half-diminished feel. This is maybe the tune that is closer to progressive rock, with a massive heavy sounding guitar solo from Miller and a superb synth solo from Lemer; there are several sections where blow instruments take it away from prog and move it towards jazzier roads but we always come back to this massive harmonic sequence, the leit motiv of the piece. "Contrary Motion" offers what the title says: harmonized horn voicings against guitar movements and melodic bass walking, all in a kind of contrapuntal progression. After a guitar solo, the trumpet takes over at double time, followed by a bass solo, where we again can't but appreciate the phenomenal fretless work of Fred Baker. Follows "Pent Up", a piece in two parts, both in a 5/4 signature. Part 1 is marked by a rather slow tempo and some kind of bass ostinato while part 2 speeds it up in a Latin inflected style (the piano comping and piano/bass rhythmic line close to salsa / Latin jazz). The piece returns to the slow tempo at the end, ending with a great ethereal guitar solo. "Focus Pocus" is the only piece not composed by Phil, but instead by keyboardist Pete Lemer; based on a solid eighth note pulse, the tune has a middle section presenting you with a tough evil crossed rhyhtm of 24 eighth notes, divided by 6 by some players, by eight by other! And they keep it for the solos, not an easy task to accomplish! "E.D. or Ian" may be dedications to persons but who? This is anyway a charming ballad, at times sounding strangely like Oregon, maybe because of the meditative soprano sax and the wonderful horn voicings. Miller delivers here a superb plaintive guitar solo. The ending is wonderful, combining sustained guitar tones and a myriad of bass harmonics. "Call Sign" closes the album, starting with a rock-solid rhythm but moving in a boppish vein during both sax and trumpet solos. The bottom line: the writing of this album is superb, the music stunning! But – yes, there is a relatively important *but* – my biggest concern is about the production side of the album! There is nearly throughout a nasty disturbing use of reverberation that imo partly kills the music or at least amputates the pleasure! Too much of the music is drowning in this reverberation; the price? it takes some of the drums attack, the instruments when soloing seem at time to shift from a wet to a dry sound within no time, like if the engineer was randomly turning the knobs, every instrument seems placed dead center in the stereo field, bumping on each other, muffling the sound, masking small details. The most hearable place of this weird balance is attained during the piano solo in the ballad number; it seems like the keyboard's aftertouch function triggers both the extra sound but also this damned reverb, suddenly invading everything. Honestly, I think this is a pity and could have easily been avoided. If you want to minimize this aspect, you'll have to listen at lower volumes; if you like it loud, you can't avoid being badly wet! Another production aspect is that Baker's bass at times jumps way too much upfront in the mix, becoming too dominating and again altering the placing of the other instruments in the stereo field! I'd like to know what the conditions were when they tackled the production; I don't remember having faced this kind of problem in previous releases!
Mind over matter: review from Jazzwise magazine
Review from the May 2012 issue (163) of Jazzwise magazine by Andy Robson
Phil Miller (g), Mark Armstrong (t, flhn), Paul Booth (ts, as, ss, fl), Peter Lemer (kys), Fred Baker (b), Mark Fletcher (d). Rec. 13 and 29 November 2009, and 25 January 2010
Things may come and things may go but like the Art School Dance, Phil Miller goes on forever.In Cahoots may have said sad farewells to the late lamented like of Pip Pyle and Elton Dean, but Miller's signature sound continues, as recognisable now as in Matching Mole days. Mind Over Matter features, as you might imagine, plenty of free flowing rock jazz. There's also a funky undertow as on the opening joyful groove of 'Medley'. It's big, it's epic and it may sound like 1975 all over again, dripping as it is with Lemer's splendidly old school synths, but that's no criticism. This is music to be enjoyed rather than questioned, and with stellar contributions from Paul Booth and the fiery trumpet of Armstrong, notably on 'Pent Up Part II', there's plenty to remind you that a dash of blaring brass and a fuzz bass break can still make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck.

Mind over matter: review from Musica Jazz
The following review for Mind over Matter appeared in Musica Jazz magazine, vol. LXVIII n. 6, June 2012.
Un chitarrista troppo jazz per essere rock e troppo rock per essere jazz: forse è anche questo paradosso a rendere Miller un musicista unico e per certi versi inimitabile ma,probabilmente è pure il motivo della sua ingiusta marginalizzazione dal panorama che conta. In effetti un talento del genere non poteva che dare il meglio di sé in gruppi borderline come Matching Mole, Hatfield & The North e National Health. Ma Miller non si è mai dato per vinto e con questa nuova frizzante uscita prosegue imperterrito il cammino dei
suoi longevi In Cahoots, con i quali continua ad architettare un godibilissimo jazzrock dove gli assoli dei vari Armstrong, Booth e Baker (senza ovviamente dimenticare i suoi, al solito molto variopinti) si inseriscono in un solido telaio compositivo in cui l'elemento virtuosistico ben s'accorda con la scrittura davvero creativa del leader.
Here is my rough translation into English:
Too jazz for rock and too rock for jazz, a paradox that makes Phil Miller unique as a guitarist and probably the reason for his unjust marginalisation. A talent that provided borderline groups such as Matching Mole, Hatfield and the North and National Health their best moments. Miller continues his journey, unperturbed, with this sparkling new output from the long-lived In Cahoots, where he continues to engineer enjoyable jazz-rock, with solos from Armstrong, Booth, Baker, and of course himself, embedded in a brilliantly written, virtuousic composition. A truly creative leader.

Tassie Devil Titbits
21 March 2008
I am very fortunate to have begun training with a particularly special animal in the Mammals Department; the Tasmanian Devil. My excitement is building as I learn more about this precious species.
Did you know Tassie Devils can only sweat through their noses and the pads on their feet? Also, they are marsupials, and just like a wombat or a Koala, their pouches face backwards!
Tasmanian Devils are nocturnal animals, meaning they sleep during the day and come out to feed at night time. Their eyesight is pretty poor even when it's light, so these creatures navigate with their excellent sense of smell and use their extremely long whiskers as feelers.
The Tassie Devil has a pretty bad wrap for being scary savage carnivores, but once you get to know them, you soon realise that deep down they are just big softies who love attention from their keepers. But due care must be taken to avoid becoming complacent with their shy nature. These animals have three times the jaw pressure of a Pit-bull Terrier and can cause a lot of damage with their bites. Therefore it is imperative that our Devil keepers can accurately read their behaviour. There a lots of things you can tell about how a Tassie Devil feels, just by closely observing their body language and vocal tones. For example, did you know that when Tasmanian Devils become angry, their usually pink ears become darker red in colour? Also, when the Devils are alert the hair on their tails stands on end, and when they are calm, their whiskers relax and point backward towards their bodies.
So these are only a few interesting facts about the amazing Tasmanian Devils. Be sure to come and visit our beautiful devils next time you're at the Zoo – you might even catch me there!
Our Amazing Tasmanian Devils
Tasmanian Devils are the largest living carnivorous marsupial (Dasyurid) in Australia. They have sharp powerful claws and a backward facing pouch. Male dev ...more

text: Banner Adpublished: Wednesday, November 14, 2012 SFSC starts search process By CHRISTOPHER TUFFLEY email@example.com AVON PARK -- Members of the South Florida State College's District Board of Trustees took the first step Tuesday morning in their search for a college president to replace retiring Dr. Norman Stephens. Board chairperson Tami Cullens led the meeting, telling the trustees the final decision of whom to hire is up to them. However, a screening committee is being set into place whose task will be to whittle down the long list of original candidates to a short list of five or six, whom the trustees will interview and form whom they will choose. The screening committee is big, comprised of 24 individuals. Developing the list of members took time as every one of the college constituencies need to be involved. SFSC serves three counties: Highlands, DeSoto and Hardee. Therefore it was essential that at least two representatives from all counties be included. Additionally, college admission and faculty members, students, members of the business community and educators involved in secondary schools have also been invited to join. A special effort was made to ensure minorities and both sexes are represented. No one on the screening committee member list has yet been officially informed of the honor. In fact, Stephens said most of them may not even know they were being considered. Much of the committee's work will be done online, such as reading resumes. Work meetings will not begin until after Valentine's Day and will be open to the public. There is a meeting scheduled for noon on Dec. 5 so the committee can meet the guiding consultant Jeff Hockaday to go over the process and rules. Cullens told the trustees that as of Nov. 13, there had been 10 "very strong" candidates who have sent in resumes. "Two of them are from Florida," she said, "eight are from everywhere else, including West Virginia, North and South Carolina, Montana and Oregon. Some are all ready (college) presidents, some are vice-presidents. "Hockaday said we're just scratching the service, there will be more applicants," Cullens added. "He says we're doing well."

"Student" Wellness Center
Posted by librarianbookworm
The sign on the building before me read, "Student Wellness Center" and I felt a chill run down my spine that had nothing to do with the briskly typical November-in-North-Dakota weather. As I paused to look up at the facade of the beautiful and state-of-the-art facility, I pondered this deep sense of foreboding that seemed to temporarily overwhelm, "OMG! WHAT am I doing here?" I asked myself, "I can't believe I am doing this…" Despite my desperate and initial hesitations, I encouraged my feet into once again carry me forward, squared my shoulders, and continued on through the glass doors into the magnificently storied atrium area. This took courage.
When I get scared, I have an annoying habit of talking to myself. "The sign is a misnomer," I kept assuring myself. "After all! I'm a student… I'm a student of… I'm a student of life…! Yes! A scholar on that subject… LOL… and sure, I'm not a STUDENT in a traditional sense of the word… being a life-long learner is an occupational hazard working in academia, after all!"
I stopped dead in my tracks again at the sight of the rather hunky undergraduate at the welcome desk who had a terrific smile, and better yet, he had no comment on the ancient UND Empl ID card that clearly read "Faculty/Staff" that I handed him. (In fact, I had a small bit of trouble locating this ID before my trip to the Wellness Center, lost as it was in the farthest reaches of the bottom of my purse. ) The card's worn and scarred surface had been crafted many moons ago, when I started in my fulltime position at UND … This was probably about the same time the Mr. Hunky Welcome Desk (with the glorious smile) was beginning Middle School… and around the time he was learning to shave. Yikes. Perish the thought.
Continuing down the hall to the locker-rooms, I also continued down my train of thought, "After all, you go to the STUDENT Union for lunch practically everyday. Why feel odd or out of place going to the STUDENT Wellness Center for workouts?" Okay. I conceded. You win, point taken. But then again, I thought as I espied a taut bodied young Freshmen, "eating next to a 17 year old, is quite a bit different than working out next to one." After all, my self-esteem could only take so much.
Without further ado, I steeled my resolve. I zipped out of my business casual attire into something a little less office-worthy, and zoomed upstairs to the cardio-deck to wage bloody battle against my buxom bottom's cellulite. I found myself the weapon of its destruction in the shape of an elliptical… and proceeded for the next 45-minutes to beat the pants off the girl next to me that was at least 10-15 years my junior. Woot. On second thought, my self esteem could use a bit more of that! Maybe even 3-5 times a week!
Being a librarian and an information professional, I will have to look up the idiom "Age before Beauty" in the Oxford English Dictionary when I get to work tomorrow morning. I bet I can find my name inscribed therein.

Let's find out if you get and any gotten anything wrong so far I have a lot and tonight.
The 80s80 Levy you know explain how it and a really -- myself I don't know why I don't know.
Now some few words earlier this songs they always -- no one even noticed -- -- Now you know there's something direction this that it against some data out of that.
That should I stop correcting your mistakes after three yet a place that'll make you feel -- America.
Greatest week ever Greg -- authorities have the Freddie Mercury thing quote queen will be torn with a hologram.
Then to certain -- tendencies later you said quote he won't actually be a hologram rather an optical illusion of sorts yes.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- If it's clear it's a hollow.
Can Greg make that truth I don't know duty might have I am -- while -- In fact that my body -- -- -- queen was one of his favorite bands you said we know what did you mean by.
I just meant that he wears tight jackets.
Hi Andy how are about the disease and you cannot.
Experience Bob -- argues that if someone would have taken shots -- you -- hologram during Coachella that would have been news which.
Accidentally raises a good point I think programs are probably the future personal security.
That's an an excellent point that's what they get but I mean like why would that he wanted to Tupac was like Coachella and hologram on my -- with the back -- -- -- -- is more technology big delegate super -- the people on TV movies forever what.
More I wanna I wanna what I understood thug life I think he would have a look at that put them up -- would they need to puck and they he would bring the East Coast and West Coast that would have been new.
Who's right -- and -- -- any way to like steal my idea about the military and use it for personal security I saw what you did.
Did you say that.
Yes -- rice said that it would holograms were the -- we can now enter.
We can -- invade countries with 200000 holograms with just a -- when he troops and we just kill everybody nobody can tell -- -- my idea actually.
-- -- -- -- -- This is if you are an idiot preacher was.
The but Mike port was more like it's it's a high tech version of remember like Saddam Hussein had almost doubles yeah yeah that was my you don't need -- and I -- -- -- see him anymore.
Three weeks ago and I'm glad you listen.
That -- so we're clear about the whole Freddie Mercury thing queen isn't touring with the -- Freddie Mercury and they're not even performing with it.
That since you appear on stage to market tenth anniversary performances of the musical we will rocky I believe they are -- Really yes and added that because they want everybody be shocked when you start seeing -- That's my theory but the queen drummer Roger Taylor has come out and said that he doesn't he thinks it's kind of -- he didn't say that but that's what -- -- changes morally.
-- he said that first and then you realize there's a big payday here so again I don't think so I -- think he he he backtracked Bret Garnett did not okay.
Don't tell.
Yeah he he said that and he said that he wasn't appear on stage with them and they still aren't its only happening as -- said.
During this musical in London not during the queen concert tour right.
I could quiz you on TV with Larry King -- he was -- -- they -- evidence are we elected.
We all did.
See that's a great thing about having a hologram Larry King no party.
Don't -- -- yes it doesn't Greg if you look at the technology not there yet to perfectly replicated suspenders you that's trail that they looks like it's part of -- -- -- could be really bad.
Probably Greg -- I would I would talk about this this crazy homophobic woman yes -- -- marveled at how organized she what she was.
Actually I'm sure I'm gonna be showing ever plagiarism sheep this is what you touched all she did was read my pamphlets and replace the word used with -- every time I -- Yeah I -- -- I haven't and this is not it's not cool we death.
Bobby said that you guys -- probably for exactly the opposite way what she says is freaking people out and Greg imaginable generational thing which was -- point.
But I mean OK there's all people being -- comfortable with homosexuality.
And then there's that one.
Yeah what have yet any specifics he's not really old and -- I'm saying it's not quite happy happy days.
The hat the hat if she took that off it's actually it's she would be adds -- -- -- people how do we know that was -- Bob Denver.
Hello Bobby operated as a -- if you haven't had on people she would actually what she said would have made more sense to you.
-- -- -- -- I've seen in the infinitely -- -- when he was wearing this little -- that we got here.
I don't didn't help that the -- lord black clear on this story Bernard excellent job blaming Obama for this woman's -- Forgive -- -- the you know if you if you -- little Baghdad now it started now you went right down to rattle off.
I Gallup poll shows two thirds of Americans leave the country -- -- having a rich class broke Bernard each and every wants to be rich but as -- and brought up according this poll.
Somehow 35% of Americans say they would prefer not to be rich if they had the choice line is playing the lottery I don't get that.
What's called Mo money Mo problems again until you understand -- Thought.
It's easy to say what you if you if you're not you know you're not going to be racing irrational a lot of wanna be ridiculous just if somebody -- -- I did have some problems I don't need all those problems in Iraq.
I gave -- those problems.
Yeah I mean -- PAB when Greg said the fact at the same percentage of Americans believe the country benefits from having a rich class.
Guys did twenty years ago means that occupy Washington's -- you agreed but I don't necessarily true I think.
You can believe America benefits of having a rich class and also believe they're not paying their fair share.
Or that they they're getting special privileges -- they shouldn't or whatever other talking points Phil's masters a daily costs and sent him out today.
That is certainly bet good.
And it goes back to the fact that they have more than one theme.
One of their themes is that there shouldn't be a rich class that's what some of them feel we should redistribute the wealth and everybody should kind of and up with the same amount -- but there are others who as you say.
Would say no we can have the rich but this whole capital gains 50% I don't get them started again but yeah oh please you think about that -- Yeah tiger -- They can -- -- -- question do you deny that of George Bush did that Don't Ask Don't Tell it's raining men joke that he would be he would not be accused of homophobia.
You did tonight that could go to your question I didn't want there's a -- did a good chance he -- -- I guess I kept a good point and a good song.
And a fund lacked most when he wrote and wait what do you mean by that Bobby.
I just love some help on Rain Man of course it is absolutely what does that face -- I'm just happy that Robert finally got around to answer your question.
-- I was like you know.
Let's get is that there are -- -- not correcting spelling mistakes babies -- just like bill Saturday night feel good now pay later you have -- -- Saturday.
And fitness and life.
True purpose they get better and better.
You know stuff yeah.
Bernard you -- -- -- -- math class spelling doesn't matter.
Which is it decent point but also be so good point why limit this -- -- why not stop correcting math problems after through mistakes.
What we can take it that far if you want I mean it is and I don't think they would ever do that.
Well there's something about it does every group about who think who think that the -- -- map.
Are too masculine.
Thank you -- -- our collective back if you plus two equals four.
Is it like a patriarch of structured notes via -- -- so rigid yet you -- -- elected like one plus one may not always equal to.
I that's and I guess that's the movement I but I didn't -- -- -- Rangers shut down there.
Your money you know I am I the only when he was sort of this yeah yeah probably yes -- somebody you always watch the show and Google it.
And let me know -- I -- I read this go into your spaceship Google.
If Jacqueline grant equals four patriarch.
-- defeat.
Let's face it how isn't it -- cardinals and I didn't telling me no because I think they say that women speak differently amounted to absolute.
Now that it's a -- I don't know yet -- it.
Auto the country's efforts using -- -- they don't belong should be talking about spelling mistakes.
-- against -- against views I'm done.
I always -- in the US -- What's this -- -- an idiot yeah they did open my right -- yeah I was back yeah I'll.

After having the "heartbeat bill" (House Bill 125) for a year and a half, Ohio Senate President Tom Niehaus has officially killed the bill ("'Heartbeat bill' totally dead for this year," Dispatch article, last Friday). He said, "This was an effort on my part to fulfill my responsibility as the leader of the caucus to protect my members."
Apparently, Niehaus values protecting politicians from public scrutiny more than protecting little baby boys and girls from abortion.
In the same article, Niehaus said, "I am not a lawyer." The problem is he apparently wants to be one. The Senate president has turned the separation of powers on its head. Instead of behaving like an elected representative, he made a decision on the constitutionality of the heartbeat bill before it ever came to a vote. In America, our judges have become legislators and now our legislators have become judges.
What Niehaus seems to have lost sight of is the fact that Roe vs. Wade is unconstitutional, not the heartbeat bill. People who defer to the worst ruling in our history are no better than the ones who wrote it.
Niehaus will be remembered not for his pro-life legislative accomplishments but for sacrificing thousands of Ohio preborn babies at the altar of political cronyism.
