Someone's in the Kitchen with Sarah: Leah Campion
Dessert is king in Leah Campion's kitchen.
It's been that way for as long as she can remember.
Growing up in Ohio, Campion's father and grandfather looked forward to the sweet treat that followed dinner.
"Dessert was what was important," she said. "It was like 'Yeah, we enjoyed that meal, but where's dessert?' "
That's where Campion inherited her sweet tooth, which she's passed along to her daughters Kerry, 11, and Abby, 8.
Campion doesn't use any type of artificial sweeteners or butters in her dishes, she goes for full flavor.
"It's not worth it if it doesn't taste good," she said.
She points out that it's better to have a small piece of the real deal than a giant slice of a dessert packed with faux sugar.
I tend to agree with her. My motto is "everything in moderation."
Campion showed me how to make lemon bars and strawberry pretzel salad during my visit to her Bank Street home.
"The lemon bars are something I've been eating ever since I was a kid," she said. "They are sweet, they get the job done and they are not difficult."
Campion said the recipe for the treat has been passed down quite a bit.
"If I remember correctly, she got the recipe from her really good friend from college's mother," she said. "These are a little bit different than some that I've had, the filling is not quite as stiff."
In the past, I've had lemon bars that were too tart, but these were the perfect combination of sweet and sour.
Campion's secret was using bottled lemon juice instead of squeezing fresh lemons, which can make the bars too bitter.
The strawberry pretzel salad was a more unique dessert.
Before meeting Campion, I had never even heard of it.
The dish's crushed pretzel crust combined with Jell-O, whipped cream, cream cheese and sweet strawberries make it the perfect treat for a warm summer day.
"When I think of springtime and summer I think strawberries," she said. "It's something really easy to put together to take to a picnic or party."
I have a huge sweet tooth, something I inherited from my father. Being in Campion's kitchen satisfied it — at least for a couple of hours.
Following the recipe
I quickly learned that Campion's trick to perfection is to simply following the recipe.
She doesn't bother trying to commit each one to memory, instead she pulls out her trusty card and gets to work.
"I wasn't always with (my mother) in the kitchen, but I knew my way around the recipes," she said. "I knew that if I could follow the recipe, most of the time I'd end up with something that was edible.
"I like to be able to follow the recipe and know that I don't have to throw my own stamp on it."
Campion learned her way around the kitchen from her mother and grandmothers.
"They were good cooks and they baked a lot," she said. "They always made homemade cookies, pies and cakes."
Most of the time, Campion prefers baking to cooking.
"I think sometimes when you bake something you're more likely to turn out with something that's probably going to taste good," she said. "I made something recently for my family and followed the recipe to the letter and it's just not something that any of us preferred.
"Typically that doesn't happen with cake or cookies."
Campion is particularly well-known for her cookies.
A plaque on the wall reads "Campion's Cookie Kitchen."
Years ago, she started baking cookies for her father and father-in-law for Christmas. It was the gift that kept on giving because she would send a fresh batch to each of them every other month throughout the entire year.
The tradition continues, but she's added more people to the list.
"At this point, they almost expect cookies," she said.
Finding inspiration
Campion is quick to point out she's "never been a gourmet cook."
"I don't like to make things that have 50 different ingredients and you have to use all of these fancy tools and things like that," she said. "I grew up very much in a meat and potatoes kind of household."
As she's gotten older Campion has broken out of that mold to explore different kind of foods.
"I've become a little bit more adventurous, so I like to try new recipes," she said.
Campion said she picks up most of her recipes from Southern Living magazine.
"I subscribe first for the recipes and then for the other stuff," she said. "Most of the time, they're really good and most of the time they're not too crazy to make.
"They are relatively easy and you don't have to be in the kitchen for two hours."
Campion also clips recipes from newspaper and magazines and collects them from friends.
"It's just wherever I find something that looks tasty," she said.

As families revisit their favorite Thanksgiving recipes, the residents of Euharlee are preparing to usher in Bartow's holiday season with the 11th annual Festival of Trees. Through the event and the parade that precedes it, organizers continue to create accessible, old-fashioned memories for the community.
"I've helped out for the last four years and just kind of got addicted to it," said Kathy Bibbings, co-founder of Just Believe Christmas for Kids Foundation, the festival's latest presenter. "... I [assisted with] the marshmallow roast more than anything, and [it is wonderful] when you see families that can sit down by the fire and roast marshmallows and just really enjoy themselves and just spend hours sitting out by the fire as a family.
"You just don't see a lot of that — families taking time out of their busy schedules to actually sit and spend time together as a family. And the kids' faces just light up when they come in [the Euharlee Granary]. It's just magical. It's fun. Everybody has a good time. I just enjoy doing it. I just enjoy seeing the kids and even the adults. A lot of adults even make the comment of, 'It brings me back to my childhood' and the magic when you're young and you just feel like that, 'Oh, it is for real.'"
On Nov. 30, the festivities will begin as riding lawn mowers, tractors, wagons and other unconventional means of transportation are the entries of choice in the Euharlee Festival of Trees Parade. The event spotlights the participants' creativity as they wind through the parade route on horses or decorated vehicles, such as golf carts, bicycles, motorcycles, floats and trailers.
"I think there [were] seven people in the original parade 11 years ago with riding lawn mowers and we've kind of progressed it from [there]," said Marshall Aiken, parade organizer. "... We want to be a little bit different and [offer] more of a hometown feel — especially the last five years with the economy being tight, where you ain't got to go out and spend a whole lot of money to [enter the parade] and have a good time. I even say, 'If you don't have a ride to decorate, decorate yourself and the kids and walk in the parade.'
"There's something a little bit different every year that stands out. One year [a] guy boxed in his entire 4-wheeler, so it looked like a giant Christmas present coming down the road ... which was just kind of neat. That and we had little miniature ponies dressed up with a little monkey riding on it one year."
Parade participants will start lining up at Woodland Middle School, 1061 Euharlee Road, at 4:30 p.m. Departing at 5:30 p.m., the procession will travel down Euharlee Road, turn left on Covered Bridge Road and end at the Euharlee Covered Bridge for the beginning of the Euharlee Festival of Trees.
While all entrants younger than 12 need to be accompanied by an adult, youth younger than 16 must have parental supervision when riding a powered vehicle other than a riding lawn mower. There is no fee to participate and pre-registration is not required.
"You don't know what [entries are] coming but you know there's going to be people at the other end watching it," Aiken said. "So it's kind of nerve-racking, but exciting at the same time to see what people bring out.
"I've talked to certain people at the beginning of October and they already tell me, 'Hey, I'm already starting [to decorate] for the parade.' ... This is a yearly thing for them. [Overall], we just come out here to do it and have a good time. It's just family-oriented, good fun."
Based on previous Festival of Trees turnouts, Bibbings is expecting a large crowd at the Granary, 114 Covered Bridge Road in Euharlee. In 2011, more than 1,500 people attended the Festival of Trees on its opening night, with 450 visiting in its first hour. While a plethora of decorations and trees for auction await guests inside the Granary, the event also will feature Santa Claus and refreshments.
"As soon as [Santa] arrives ... he is the official opening of the festival," she said, adding Santa usually is the parade's final entry. "[The first night] is chaos. We could have up to 1,500 people there. They're lined up and patiently waiting to go in. Some will leave and go up the street to Johnny Mitchell's Smokehouse and have dinner and come back because they've been each year and they know that it's going to take time to get in and get through."
In its first year presenting the Festival of Trees, Just Believe Christmas for Kids Foundation will carry on the tradition of the event's previous organizers — The Covered Bridge Players and the Margaret Montgomery Christmas 4 Kids Foundation — with proceeds helping provide Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in Bartow. There will be no admission charge but donations will be accepted.
From Nov. 30 to Dec. 14, about 23 Christmas trees and nearly five wreaths will be on display and up for auction at the Granary, with the last bids being placed on the event's final night. The artificial trees will vary in size — 4 feet to 9 feet tall — and decorations.
During the festival's two weeks, the trees will be available for viewing each Monday through Thursday from 6 to 9 p.m. and Friday through Sunday from 6 to 10 p.m. Santa will be available for visits each Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 6 to 8 p.m.
"We've had a lot of help this year," Bibbings said, referring to groups and individuals who have decorated and donated trees for the event. "It's just something that everybody looks forward to every year. This year our trees are going to range anywhere from glitzy chic to primitive. And a big part of our theme this year has gone back to primitive and just traditional Christmas. ... The style and the rage now is the burlaps and old-fashioned look.
"There's something just about for everybody. We've got some trees that are suitable for the teenage girl. We've got something that might appeal to a boy or even a younger girl for that matter ... and then, of course, the adults. [As far as tree decorations], we've got everything from shotgun shells to handmade muslin and burlap ornaments to pinecones and then traditional [items] — the balls, bells [and] those kinds of things."
For more information about the Euharlee Festival of Trees, contact Bibbings at 770-315-2100 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Further details about the parade can be obtained by contacting Aiken at 770-382-6067 or email@example.com. If the parade is rained out, it will be rescheduled for Dec. 7.

Julie Borlaug says biotech is necessary in fight against hunger
The key is choice, Borlaug said.
"We wouldn't want to tell people not to eat organic foods, even if they're paying more for something that's nutritionally no different from genetically modified foods or because there's no real 'standard' for organic production," she said. "Conversely, we feel people should certainly be allowed to choose foods that have been improved and enhanced through biotechnology."
However, she added, this is not to imply that biotechnology is the cure-all for world hunger.
"Multiple, integrated solutions are needed," Borlaug said. "Farmers in underdeveloped countries need drought-resistant seeds, fresh water from improved irrigation, enhanced post-harvest storage and better roads for getting their crop to market. Biotechnology is just one of the tools the world needs to ensure adequate food security for this generation and the next."

There was a time when activists were all about choice. Now they want to limit our choices in the name of preserving some spiritual vision of what the environment once was. This world will be a much better place when people who don't work on farms stop trying to tell farmers what choices they should make.
The world will be better when farmers grow food and not genetically engineered poison. You are not producing food in a void. There is a consumer out there. What does the consumer want? Consumers are Opposed to genetically engineered foods. It is a poor marketing strategy to try to Force on consumers something they don't want!!
Personally, I am offended that you think you can speak for another consumer, or other thinking people who would disagree 100 percent with assumptions!! I for one trust what the GMO intentions are providing nutritious food, scientifically for a growing population. If, you don't want GMO food, don't eat it, I respect that, but to push your fears onto the real world, and real world issues is seriously misguided. GMO food is engineered for a very noble cause, and I respect that too.
I may not agree with you but you have a valid opinion. Though, you say "if you don't want GMO food don't eat it" but the truth is GMA is trying to pass a bill to ban GMO labeling. Which would take away our freedom of choice. We the people have the right to know what we are consuming and cannot allow this to pass! It outrages me that they want to trample our rights and also deny individual states constitutional rights to pass food safety laws as well. This is something that we need to take action on as the people, first and for most.
But can we, really, choose not to eat GMOs when the pollen crosses with non-GMO varieties, and wild varieties, genetically modifying them as well? GMOs are not being grown under domes. They're replacing the natural plants. Please, stop lying ablut feeding the starving people of the world. Those people fed themselves before, saving seed,growing real food. Those that got duped into growing this monstruosity replaced their forests and multycrop gardens with this monocrops meant to feed cattle and pigs in other continents, so now they are starving. GMOs are starving them! They are also getting sprayed with poisons with the consequence of miscarriages and deformed children, and rare kidney diseases, and cancer.
Here is a perspective by a third-generation Iowa farmer who warns of the dangers of GMOs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDHumw0ossc
Here is what Dr. Lorrin Pang, the state health care officer for Maui County, Hawaii. has to say about the need for caution--much more than is currently being display--with GMOs. Here are some of Dr. Pang's credentials: graduated with honors in chemistry from Princeton, then went to medical school in Tulane and has a masters in tropical medicine, as well as many years of experience in public health (including 24 years with the Walter Reed Institute of Research and the World Health Organization). You have to stay with the video for a while to get to the heart of the content, but I think that it is worth it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCGIf0GSwX8
Actually most consumers do NOT have a choice if they want to eat GMOs or not. And please don't say we do by eating organic. This is not an organic vs GMO issue. Labeling is about giving EVERYONE the Right to choose which food is best for them. AND this noble cause to feed the world is such BS. We throw 40% of our food away. And let's talk about fear. You should be afraid. Very afraid. We have no clue what the long term consequences of growing and eating GMOs will do. We do know that farm animals that eat GMOs are very unhealthy. We do know glyphosate has been found in our blood and breast milk. We do know that 1 in 50 kids has autism. And the number is getting worst.
Micsha - so you think consumers should just shut up and eat whatever food farmers grows? What happen to the free market that is driven by demand. Or that the consumer is king. Nope, in your world, Big Biotech and Big Agri create the supply and then through false advertisements and propaganda tell consumers what to eat. Yep, and you would call that Food Freedom? Wake up, we don't have food choice as Big Food is trying to water down the standards for organic food. Soon all food will be cheap, crappy, industrialized, Roundup saturated GMO foods. And subsidized with my taxes.
If I knew what contains GMO I wouldn't eat it, by the way the struggle of GMA in opposing GMO labeling says enough in terms of good faith. Don't forget that official science put Galileo in prison because of his heretical deviant assumptions! Does it ring any bell about interests hidden by noble causes?

Soups & Stews
There is nothing more comforting than a bowl of homemade soup. Polish kitchens are famous for their delicious soups which can be grouped into four categories: sour soups, thick and hearty soups, clear soups, and specialty soups. Choosing one soup from each group wasn't easy, since there are so many delicious Polish soups.

The question is not whether instances of abuse take place—no matter how rare they might be—but how consumers perceive of the way abuse problems are handled. Local officials, left alone to deal with abuse, often do what it takes to stop it. But proponents of allowing videos claim that local officials may be unaware of abuse or in some instances be less than diligent in their enforcement of anti-abuse statutes. Ag-gag legislation runs the risk of being perceived as protecting the abusers and thereby endangering the trust and good will that society feels toward farmers.
An alternative to making videos illegal is the one adopted by the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers Alliance (USFRA) with its Food Dialogues, http://www.fooddialogues.com/. As they write, "Farmers and ranchers are committed to the safest and most appropriate care for their animals. They care deeply about the health and safety of their animals and take pride in them. They also know that consumers are concerned about animal care."
They acknowledge that "the system is not perfect. Unfortunately, there are on occasion a few incompetent or uncaring people such as those seen in occasional undercover videos who abuse animals. Anyone who abuses animals should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law" and declare that the abusers' "practices do not represent the vast majority of farmers and ranchers."
USFRA says, "While opinions regarding management techniques for animal safety and health greatly differ, it's important that all farmers and ranchers work together with consumers to get a clearer understanding of why specific management styles work for one type of farm/ranch compared to another."
We believe that it is also important for farmers and ranchers to get a clearer understanding of the changing expectations that consumers have for the food they eat.

The bill essentially would amend Part 3 of Article 4 of Chapter 11 of Title 16 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated relating to carrying and possession of firearms in unauthorized locations, specifically government buildings. It would amend the code that the term "government building" shall not mean "the campus of any public or private technical school, vocational school, college, university, or institution of postsecondary education," further removing postsecondary education facilities from the realm of a "school safety zone."
Administrations at both Chattahoochee Technical College, a member of the Technical College System of Georgia, and Georgia Highlands College, a member of the University System of Georgia, said they support current Georgia law regarding guns on campus.
According to a statement provided by CTC, "Officials with Chattahoochee Technical College have concerns over the proposed legislation when it comes to the safety of our faculty, staff and students.
"Bringing guns into classrooms creates enormous problems for law enforcement, most especially the campus public safety officers who would be the first to respond to any incident. Allowing weapons on campus adds an additional level of uncertainty for our officers, as they must quickly ascertain who is the aggressor in a situation to proceed safely. This becomes cloudy when multiple people are armed.
"Colleges provide a unique environment that is dependent on open and vigorous debate. Introducing guns into classrooms would dramatically affect the ability to engage in the exchange of ideas."
GHC Interim President Renva Watterson said in a prepared statement, "Georgia Highlands College supports the current Georgia law and believes that it best serves and protects our students, faculty and staff."
While neither college reported the existence of gun advocacy or gun control student groups on their local campuses, GHC Student Government President Tatiana Smithson gave The Daily Tribune News a student's perspective on the issue.
"I think it's a tough situation for both sides," Smithson said. "I can see the view of the students that I talked to that agreed on the bill passing and the ones that don't. It's hard to know what the whole student body feels because there has not been an official survey.
"Talking to the students as a fellow student, it was really 50-50, but one thing they did agree on was that there should be some kind of armed protection whether the bill passes or not. In my opinion as a student, I agree with the students I talked to that there should be some kind of protection for the students.
"To me it can be a little scary not knowing if the person is responsible enough to carry. We just have to keep in mind not to over do it because we have to think the kind of environment it will cause no matter what decision is made."
Gregory's HB 29 is the second time since the Newtown, Conn., shooting that Georgia representatives have proposed gun legislation relating to public schools. State Rep. Paul Battles, R-Cartersville, introduced pre-legislation this month that calls for local school boards to determine whether school administrators should be allowed to carry guns on school property and at school events.
No teachers or any faculty beyond administrators would be allowed to carry guns on their persons if the bill passes.
"The key to this piece of this legislation ... [is] I did not want to make this a mandate where systems had to [allow administrators to carry guns]," Battles said. "... It's an option, and if school boards say they don't want to do this, they don't have to."

ANTICORRP Twitter
Key Facts
- ANTICORRP is a large-scale research project funded by the European Commission's Seventh Framework Program and its largest social sciences' grant (€10 million).
- The full name of the project is 'Anticorruption Policies Revisited: Global Trends and European Responses to the Challenge of Corruption'.
- The central objective of ANTICORRP is to investigate factors that promote or hinder the development of effective anti-corruption policies.
- The project started in March 2012 and will last for five years. The project consists of 21 research groups in 16 EU countries.
- The project combines global scope with local expertise, using quantitative methods to identify 'over-performing' and 'under-performing' countries in relation to their progress towards less corrupt governance regimes.
- Special emphasis is placed on EU member states, accession and neighbourhood countries, and developing countries that receive significant EU aid.
UCL's Role
Professor Alena Ledeneva is leader of Pillar 3 - one of four main pillars of the project - which investigates the links of corruption with media and organised crime and
focuses on the implications of policy outcomes for specific
professional and social groups. It also examines the social and fiscal
costs of corruption. She also supervises work packages WP6 and WP9.
Dr Andrew Wilson takes part in research into governance improvement, specifically the positive case of Georgia and the negative case of Ukraine.
Dr Seán Hanley and Dr Allan Sikk
are contributing to work on channels of democratic accountability,
focusing in particular on anti-corruption and anti-establishment platforms of new
political parties across Central and Eastern Europe
using a blend of qualitative and quantitative methods.

6 December 2012
Europe House, 32 Smith Square, London
This year, one year on from the death of Václav Havel, and in the light of a contemporary reinvention of dissident practice in the Arab Spring, the Occupy Movement, Charter 08 in China, and the neo-dissidence of Pussy Riot and others in Russia, we have formulated topics for discussion that pick up on themes from Havel: dissent as the 'art of the impossible' and as a point of intersection between politics and aesthetics.

Berkley Havoc Skeet's Pit Boss - $2.99
Pro designed to help you catch more bass, Berkley is releasing their brand new line-up of Havoc baits to coincide with 2011 Bassmaster Classic on the Loisiana Delta.
The Berkley Havoc Skeet's Pit Boss was designed by top Bassmaster Elite Series veteran pro and 2009 Bassmaster Classic Champion, Skeet Reese. He designed it to be the ultimate flipping bait. The Havoc Pit Boss's short compact body is perfect for getting in and out of cover, and its action is second to none.
"I love fishing with a flipping stick. I designed the Pit Boss to mimic bait fish, as well as, crayfish. It's the perfect size to match the most common forage sizes and has the best possible action to get bites in all conditions." - Skeet Reese
Comments: Best compact creature bait on the market. Especially lethal in grass and thick weeds and is a good punching bait. The action is great but subtle enough to appeal to both aggressive and sluggish bass. One of the first baits I reach for in a pitching/flipping situation.
From: Tyler: Grand Juntion, CO 9/23/14
Comments: Best craw I've ever used, have caught fish on them Texas rigged, jig trailered, and topwater. Bass crush these things and every now and then a catfish will get in on the action. only problem is durability I've had big bass suck these things clean off the hook of a Texas rig before. Overall its a great bait.Best colors for me are, Okeechobee craw, perfection blue fleck, and electric blue.
From: Zane: OK 8/31/14
Comments: Hands down best craw on the market, use these exclusively Texas rigging, and weightless rigging. Bass simply cannot handle these, the way the arms pulse through the water. Also very durable, I've caught 20 bass and only went through two, and when the top slices open cut them half an inch down and use as a jig trailer. Tie on a size 4 EWG and you will have a bass on guaranteed.
From: Brett: CT 6/9/14
Comments: These are absolutely amazing! i bought a pack of the black and blue in 4" and paired with a 3/0 EWG texas rigged with a 1/8 oz. i caught more bass in a single day than i have in a long time. i only wish i had a 4/0 hook instead. Best texas rigged bait for me. I don't see a reason to buy another when the Pit boss has the action and the colors i need!
From: Kieran: Marietta, GA 5/28/14
Comments: Performs well and has a great selection of colors. I was missing a few hookups, so I tried bending the hooks out a bit with pliers, only to have the hook break. I'd intentionally bent other brands' frog hooks before and never had an issue with them breaking.
From: Mark: NC 5/27/14
Comments: Theres something about this bait that fish just like. I've never had much luck with any other of Berkley's Havoc baits but this one is the exception. Occasionally an arm will get torn off and I find, when it does, it doesn't balance quite properly. In the case of this, I just rip off the arm on the opposite side. It seems to work just as well with two arms as it does with four. It's a solid bait that I would recommend to anyone.
From: Victor: St. Catharines, ON Canada 5/17/14
Comments: I have to tell you I am in love with this bait. The legs really do have a very good swimming action. Rigging the hook on this bait is super easy. This bait has so much variety it is unreal. You can jig it off the bottom, you could swim it like a swimbait, you could use it as a trailer, or you could use it as a punching bait. The waters in my area are so overfished it is almost unbelievable, so I have experimented and found out that you only have a couple of options when fishing overfished waters. The first option is to use a bait that the fish have never seen before, or you can use a bait that mimicks the baitfish really really well. I fished this bait in murky water and pulled out a 2 pounder right after somebody had just got done fishing that spot spot. Durable is very low on this bait though.
From: Tucker: San Antonio, TX 4/29/14
Comments: I was on a 0 fish streak for 2 weeks straight fishing pretty much every other day, with everything in my tackle, at my local lakes... Bought these for the hell of it since they were a top seller... First cast today and yesterday, nailed some big fish on them and continued to throughout the day on a simple Texas rig, couldn't ask for a more powerful bait... A couple times I walked right up on some fish and could see them clearly and they struck without a second thought. Only problem I've had is the fish destroy it, after 2 or 3 the top comes unhooked just like any Texas rig would but, it just seems these break a lot easier than most baits. Definitely will buy again!
From: Larry: CA 4/28/14
Comments: Great creature bait. Has good action, but is not very durable i guess that's why their only $2.99. Every time i have thrown this bait i have gotten bit. A few weeks ago i had 5 fish for around 16lbs and had a 6 pounder break off at the boat. If you want to catch fish buy this bait.
From: J.C.: USA 4/28/14
Comments: Went through 3 packs in two days!! I've never caught more fish on a single lure. They cant get enough of it. I'll flip it then use a slow retrieve back to the boat. Get's em every time!
From: Cliff: Marksville, LA 4/4/14
Comments: Awesome lures! I recently caught a solid 3.5 lb. bass at a local pond with the Watermelon Red Pit Boss! They provide a pretty large profile and larger fish just inhale them! Just ordered some more in a different color that I couldn't find at my local Academy!
From: Chase: TX 3/9/14
Comments: Something about this bait just works. This think is a fish catching machine!
From: DE: Phoenix, Az
Comments: bought the 4" in green haze from my local dicks sporting goods thursday,saturday i had a seven 7 pound bass in my hands.monday i went to the closes bass pro shops hour and half away to pick up some 5" junebug, and today i cought a 7 1/2 pound bass and i have cought plenty of fish in between, needless to say these things are awesome im gonna pick me up some more!!!!!!
From: Colby: jasper G.A.
Comments: I caught tons of fish on these using them top water like a buzz bait or a Stanley ribet frog There also great for pitching and for punch rigs and jig trailers. Great bait. The claws tend to get ripped off if you get a lot of dinks to hit but all you have to do to prevent that is let them eat it and the claws stay back in there mouth Bigger fish just inhale these. Great bait. Really versital I plan on getting more
From: Josh: WI
Comments: Green Pumpkin Purple is the cats meow! Was catching bass on them all day when the Rage Craw wasn't working
From: Matt: Lakeville,MN
Comments: These Things are hands down the best flippin bait on the market. They have proven themselves time after time, and tournament after tournament. Most people also hook them wrong the Top View is the top of the bait i know the bottomw pic looks like that should be the top but its not.
From: Swizzle: Holbrook Ma
Comments: Awesome bait! still waiting for the 3 inch!
Comments: These things are great. They have more action than you'd think. It takes very little speed to get them swimming. Not only are these really good for flippin and pitching they are really good for swimming and fishing them like a Biffle Bug on a Hardhead or Wobble Jighead. California is nice Green Punpkin/Red color that works well in most Texas/OK lakes. Junebug is my go to color for muddy water. Thumbs up on these. I buy them onsale for $1.99 a pack which can't be beat. Buy some!
From: Basszilla: Lake Fork, TX
Comments: I was fishing this in Big Texan on a Texas rig flipping it up under bushes. I caught one 2lb bass and hat another huge bite but my drag was not set and i snapped the line setting the hook. I like how this bait looks. The only cons I can think of are that bluegill like to "Jackhammer" it and rip off the arms. Also it rolls over when you swim it. Overall a good bait though.
From: Ethan: Charlottesville, VA
Comments: Great bait. you can jig it from the bottom or even run it along the top of weeds. you can get about 4-5 fish each with just one. Buy a pack, you WONT regret it :)
From: Paul: south Florida
Comments: Great bait in both the 4" and 5" sizes. Have caught good tournament quality Florida fish in the 5" size on several different colors. Best colors for me so far are 'Bama Bug', 'Lime-Purple Passion', and 'Green Pumpkin Purple'. I've tried some of the other colors like the 'Perfection' variants and dark blue variants, and they seem to work, but the three I listed earlier have performed best in our Central Florida lake systems and local ponds. I texas rig these for the most part - casting, dragging, yo-yo'ing, pitching, & flipping them to varying degrees of success. This is one of those baits that can pretty much 'do it all'. They are very versatile baits! Do yourself a favor and try them. You won't regret having a few bags of these laying around!
From: Shawn: Tampa, FL USA
Comments: really great bait. i even caught fish working it on top of weeds. crazy
From: Konrad: IL
Comments: Bought 2 bags to test back in feb. By the end of may I had won 2 tournaments on the upper Chesapeake bay, and had about 30 bags. Black blue is good for me, and big texan with some chartreuse spike-it on the tail.. killer. Well worth the price and my go to flippin bait
From: Jake: dover, DE
Comments: This is a good bait I caught 7 bass in a hour I was using electric blue color this is my favorite bait now.
From: James: Jackson , TN USA
Comments: Swimming it, hopping it, crawling it, jigging it, it doesn't matter. This bait will catch fish. Even at a straight retrieve, the claws put off more action than any bait on the market. Also makes a killer bed fishing bait. Punch it, flip cover, it's just an awesome bait.
From: Caleb: Grandview, Texas, United States
Comments: I caught 65 bass in about 4 hours on these in perfection blue fleck. Do I have a new favorite bait? You bet.
From: David: Monroe, La USA
Comments: These have been deadly on the bass here in MN. Big bass just can't resist them. The Bama Bug color has been the most effective for me followed closely by the Green Pumpkin Purple.
From: Kealon: MN
Comments: Great colors. I use these as a football jig and swimming jig trailers. I find that the appendages come off very easily though. I will continue to use them because of price and quantity.
From: Adam: WI
Comments: Bought this by accident and it was the best mistake ever. Have caught a lot of bass on this using Texas rigged. My first time Texas rigging this year and I'm very pleased.
From: Jim: WI
Comments: Have been murdering the pigs in a new pond on these guys, went through a pack in a couple days, has caught easily 7, 2.5-5 pound fish.
From: Hunter: IA
Comments: Tried the pit boss for the first time. I caught a 3 pounder within 20 minutes. I was using the perfection color. I also missed a couple of fish. My new go to bait when the bite is tough
From: Hunter
Comments: Durable, easy to rig, many colors and overall a great bait.
From: Colton: IA
Comments: They look good, the action is there, the colors are right. They have such a bad chemical smell though. Soaked 'em in BANG Pure Craw for half a day, then sprayed with F2(a little secret), and they still stunk. R.I. Sweet Beavers outfished them today 18:1!
From: Bill: IN
Comments: I have been a die-hard R.I. Sweet Beaver man for a long time, but these things are the real deal.....and for $2.99 a bag. Bye Bye beaver, hello Pit Boss.
From: Basswipe: Meatwads pond
Comments: This became my favorite go to bait last year. Fish it On top of the water, pitch it, throw it on as a trailer. Already got 35 bags ready to go for spring and getting ready to order some more colors. Also excited to see what the new 5" Papa pit boss will do.
From: Wachati: Louisburg, KS
Comments: tried this bait for the first time in a new hole yesterday. got hooked up to a nice bass on the first cast.!!!! great look and awesome action to this bait!!
From: Bob: Kerrville, TX
Comments: The side with just a few ribs is the "top" of the bait. If you look closely u can see 2 little elongated eyes on this side as well. Hope that helps u out Bama Mike...
From: TJ: OH
Comments: good value. They are durable and the powerbait scent makes the fish hang on. However, about half the baits in each bag are deformed. They really need a better storage method. When you get them dip the flappers in boiling water until they are straightened out.
From: Cullen: Ashburn, VA
Comments: first time trying it out caught 40 fish in 3 hours in black and blue AWESOME BAIT!! BUY SOME!!
From: Chris: Houston
Comments: this bait is so awsome.i got it in green pumpkin and big texan and black blue. this bait is good for pitching around docks and laydowns. i caught my biggest fish on thi bait in black in blue. love this bait will be buying more.
From: Charlie: NC
Comments: Which side is considered the top? The side with just a couple ribs or the side with ribs all the way down? I know which side I believe is to be the top but when I look at some of the colors I feel like they should be the other way. Just wondering what yall think. With that said, I have rigged it both ways and this bait is money. lay lake grass, stumps, and rocks.... hang on.
From: Mike: Bama
Comments: Very smart design and I really like the Havok plastic. I would really like to see a shorter and slimmer version of this bait. The size and profile of the 4" version is perfect when the fish are on, but I very often have to switch to a 3.5" beaver when things slow down. I live in an area where the smallmouth prevail so I understand if not everybody agrees.
From: Nate: Pasco, WA
Comments: LOVE THIS BAIT!!! This is by far my favorite craw, designed by my favorite pro. Im from Iowa where a 5 pound bass is a monster and this perfect little bait has accounted for about 3 for me this year. My two favorite colors are the natural presentation Big Texan and Sapphire Blue, which i use for my jig trailers. All I do is hop, pop, and swim this baby short distances and occasionally pause it then pop it and wait for the strike! When the spawn starts this will be my go to bait!
From: Hunter: Muscatine, IA
Comments: The pit boss, considering the color selection, durability and price is probably the best beaver style bait on the market. It is extremely tough, excellent color selection and you get enough to last a day because they are so tough for $2.99. Big tex,california, junebug, green pumpkin and bama bug are the best.
From: Jacob: Wellsville, Ohio
Comments: Update on my earlier review. This season has accounted to 50+ largies caught on the pit boss from 1 foot to 20 feet of water I love this bait dont hesitate buy it now
From: Aaron: Lake Mills, WI
Comments: This is my back up to a Beaver. When the fish are really eating a beaver, I'll put this on and save some money. Good chatterbait trailer too...not so hot as a jig trailer. Overall a pretty good bait for the price.
From: Chris
Comments: I used this bait a lot this year with no luck, I mainly used it as a trailer on a jig. When I would change the trailer to the zoom super chunk I would start catching fish again, maybe I should try them again next year.
From: Chris: Ohio
Comments: This is one amazing Lure! I have consistently caught quality fish in numerous ponds and lakes. This bait saved me on my last tournament at lake cochituate where this allowed me to finish in the top. It is also my new go to bait where a lot of times before i would pick up a senko. Overall this is a bait that you must try! also as far as colors go, you cant beat the old standbys of black and blue or green pumpkin but other colors such as lime purple passion can work as well. Tight Lines!
From: Phillip: MA
Comments: awxome bait so much action in this thing impale it on any 1/2 ounce jig and bass will kill it.. best color is the summer craw, 2nd bama bug, this things only problem is its durablity man it ripps after 3 fish over all good lure
From: Tim: MI
Comments: All I can say is that this is THE BEST soft plastic made.....PERIOD! I own 10 different colors now. If I could only have one lure on my boat at any given time; this would be the one. I prefer Black/Blue and Perfection but the others colors I own are hard to beat as well. I normally pitch these with a Trokar 4/0 Flippin Hook and a 3/16 oz Tungsten weight. I just recieved the lime/purple passion and am very excited to get out on the boat with those. GREAT JOB Berkley; please dont ever stop making these. And as ALWAYS.....Tackle Warehouse offers A+++++++ service! I can honestly say that BPS and Cabelas has lost 100% of my business to Tackle Warehouse.....they are 2nd to none.
From: Gary: PA
Comments: I've been carolina riggin this bait lately due to the extreme heat and havin great success bumpin and dragin the pit boss along on the bottom. my favorite color is plum, the color almost perfectly resembles the craw fish on my local lakes... and for a 2.99 price tag.. you cant go wrong! tight lines!
From: Justin: NJ
Comments: The havoc baits have a great cation i use em a lot i would definatly recomend em
From: Louis: LA
Comments: I went out for a trip on canyon lake and all day only caught 2 2 pounders all day. I decided to try the pit boss in green pumpkin/red flake for my first time. on my second cast, I hooked a 10 pound 2 ounce bass. (my personal best) This is now my go to bait for any fishing condition.
From: Bryce: Orange County, CA
Comments: went out for the first time in a while yesterday, in the florida 95 degree heat, caqught 4 in an hour and a half. 1st fish hit my pit boss as a swam it passed some brush, it went 5 pounds. My next 3 fish were all caught traditional flipping, including a fish that was in the 10 pound range. I was ussing a craw fatty too and didnt get bit when using it. The pit boss is the only bait ill flip besides a senko or fluke!
From: Mike: Riverview, FL
Comments: This bait is INCREDIBLE! This is by far the best Havoc Bait and probably the best punching bait made. What a bargain at $2.99 for 8. I have 6 colors now and plan on buying other colors as well. I rig with a Trokar Flipping Hook (size 4/0) and a 3/16 to 3/4 oz tungsten weight depending on how thick the cover is. I have yet to be skunked while having one of these tied on my line. My favorite colors are green pumpkin/ purple and black/blue. You MUST buy this bait. If I could only have three baits in my tackle bag this would be one of them. (the other two would be a 4" yum dinger and a Yum 3" wooly bug). But when I need a big profile bait in heavy cover.....this is the one.
From: Gary: PA
Comments: Went out fishin' yesterday and beat my 2 hour time limit best. upgraded from 5 fish in 2 hour to 7. 5 of those fish on the junebug color. i texas rigged it and tossed it beside underwater bushes and they picked it up and RAN WITH IT! thank God for 50 pound braid...
From: Reid: Clinton, NC
Comments: i have been a berkley fan for years and i cant beleive people think that this is better then powerbait line....yes the pit boss has good action...but powerbait is still better than the crap they call as havco!!
Comments: the biggest bass of my life on Kentucky Lake ledge fishing with a football jig paired up with the Ockeechobee craw color. Great action and awesome bait for the price. STOCK UP!!!
Comments: Totally rad flippin, pitchin, and punchin bait. crazy arms, so durable, and some wacky colors only seen with tthis bait. Action is unlike any other. stock up now!
From: Scotty: VA
Comments: Pit Boss, Brilliant! Flip it at any structure in the lake and hold on tight. Go with lime-purple passion on a c-rig for smallies, they hate it in a good way.
From: Ehner: Minot, ND
Comments: Pitchin' or trailin' these things just work. Cali and Okeechobee are my go to's.
From: Carter: TX
Comments: Fantastic! have alot of action, especailly when texas rigging on a 4/0 wide gap hook with a 1/4 ounce worm weight. You can realy launch them far out and they stay well intact on the hook, so i dont have to worry about any fish ripping the craw off the hook.
From: C.I.: Canada
Comments: Super pimp pitchin bait. Those flappers flap like a drunken chicken. A drunken chicken that bass think is delicious! No scent...add your own. Or dont. I dont care.
From: The Lure Reviewer: Alantown
Comments: I am very impressed with this bait. They flat out catch fish. The action is superior to other beaver style baits. My first time to use them today and I caught 9 bass pitching to cypress trees with my best 5 just over 15 pounds. I used a Mustad 4/0 tube hook and a picasso 3/8 tungston weight.
From: Lonnie: LA
Comments: It'll catch bass thats for sure. Only problem is the plastics are on the cheaper side and have trouble staying on hooks.
From: Daniel
Comments: Great bait, perfect for flippin, cant wait to use it as a jig trailer. perfect price too.
From: B: MI
Comments: Love this bait. Best beaver bait in my opinion and has worked really good for as a jig trailer for my dirty jigs no-jack flippin jig and pitching jig
From: MN
Comments: This is the best creature bait ive ever used. When down to my local pond for about 30 mins and caught two 4 pounders. I was using it texas rigged with a bulet weight and throwing near cover then popping my rod up and down of the bottom. Usually hit them on on the fall. GREAT BAIT! its amust buy!
From: Tyler: GA
Comments: This is the best soft plastic I have fished. I got a pack of the Black Blue color and Carolina rigged it on i 6'6" Graphite rod with a good speed reel. I had 14lb Sufix Elite line with a 3/16 lead bullet weight, size 12 brass swivel and about a foot long leader of Bass Pro Shops XPS 8lb Fluorocarbon. Cast, let it sit for a minute or two then slowly reel. They are looking at it and when it starts to leave they slam it. After half an hour caught 4 bass over 14in. They hit so hard they ruin the baits. STOCK UP ON THE PIT BOSS!!!
From: Aaron: Lake Mills, WI
Comments: Best flipping baits on the market.great action yet not too crazy. Perfect for punching mats or flipping cat tails. Great colors. I'm ordering like 20 packs next paycheck
From: Mike: Riverview, FL
Comments: My go to bait for bass period. Most versatile bait ever used, pitch it or swim it. Best way for me is used as buzz bait. The outside claws have the perfect action tickle the water just enough to entice and not scare. Caught so many on this bait lost count long time ago.
From: Alex: Palm Bay, FL
Comments: want to drive a bedding fish up the wall so fast she eats the bait on teh first flip, fish it weightless on a wide gap hook like you would a fluke, pitch it on the bed and just let it fall to the bottom, it will fall mostly horizontal, with its head down just slightly and those flappers just causing enough drag to slow it down, when it hits the bottom let it sit for a few seconds with the flappers up in the water then just pop it up and let it sink. The slow fall drives the fish nuts as it just sits in her face for so long 95% of the catches i have like this in the spawn on a bedding fish the bait never even reaches the bottom before big mamma destroys it. If that doesn't work fish it on the surface like a toad.
Comments: five star bait!!! Ive used lots of flipping style baits and never have I had the success with them like I have with these. This bait flat out catches them!!! Yes they are soft yes they will tear but thats part of a soft plastic bait. I get a few fish per bait and am very happy with that. I would rather spend 3 bucks on bait and catch allot of bass then spend 5 bucks on a bait that will last 10 fish per bait but will on;y catch you a fish here and there. There success far outweighs the cost. 4/0 ewg lazer trokar and pegged 1/4 ounce tungsten weight most of the time for me.
From: Joe: Indiana
Comments: great bait great action caught 4 fish in a hour
From: Josh: Fort Worth, TX
Comments: I was flipping the banks on a very cold day and they would not hit it! i decided to cast out deep, reeling pretty fast, and caught a nice 3 or 4 pounder. Great bait!
From: Mason: Brunswick, GA
Comments: AWESOME BAITS!!!! went fishing yeterday and went through a pack of vampire orange in 6 hours on 10+ bass! these are very durable, at least 5 fish per bait! i only went through an 8 pack because of thick cover and overhanging trees. all bass were over a pound each with three 2 pounders and a monster 3.5 pounder! best bait ever i tried 6 different flippin type baits and they only bit on this!
From: Basslayer: Roseville, CA
Comments: These baits are phenomenal! The swimming action the flippers give off is like nothing ive ever seen before. they flat out catch bass, and they are super durable too! Great bait, Tackle Ware House please keep them in stock.
From: Tyler: Cincinnati, OH
Comments: i agree with brett, these things r RAW they're awesome flipping baits also work good on jigs if you cut like half of the body off. it gives it a good bulky profile. sure they rip but softer plastic=better action so get over it!
Comments: For all you guys complaining about the durability of these baits they're SOFT PLASTICS. What do you expect, start fishing crankbaits if they are so bad.
From: Brett: IL
Comments: Great Bait. Caught alot of bass /w the Dean Rojas Eco Pro Tungsten weight with a 4/0 Skip Gap Gamakatsu hook combo. You will burn through them fast. Vampire Orange FTW!!
From: Chue: Chisago, MN
Comments: This is my first year fishing for bass since moving to Oklahoma. I have tried crank baits to other plastics and nothing performs as the Pit Boss. I did not realize the bait was designed for flipping and so, I have been Texas rigging it and casting it. A few weeks ago in the mist of our heat wave I caught 2 bass within 30 minutes over 18 inches. The June Bug color is what I have been using in stained water. For $2.99 i will keep buying these baits. My only complaint is they last only a few fish. So when the head is torn I just bite off and use as a trailer.
From: Martin: Edmond, OK
Comments: this is a terriable bait it rips very easily but it is a good price but I can find much more durable baits out there for a little bit more money but more durable.
From: Noah: Coral Springs, FL
Comments: best beaver baits on the market! super cheap, durable, have great action and come in good colors. first time i tried these the fish wouldnt hit anything else! the legs kick really well on the fall so just flip em and let em sink. the body design is great or texas rigging because the plastic is thicker in the front where it usually tears, i have been getting 3-4 fish per bait. plum works the best for me.
From: Jason: San Jose, CA
Comments: These things are great! Started using them Early this year and have been hooked ever since. People are right, they only last a couple fish before the top splits but other than that no complaints! Back Blue has bee hot for me and im up in Minnesota! Great Price for a Great bite !
From: Sam: Crystal, MN
Comments: I used thm as a punching bait and caught maybe a fish or 2 but it's not as durable as i thought, then again it still works great and their so cheap to! The devil spear works great to as a fliping bait
From: Mike: East Brunswick, NJ
Comments: Sweet!!!! Great bait! I texas and carolina rig this and it does great! Awesome scent and the4 arms give it a sweet action!! Buy some!!!
From: Scott: VA
Comments: This bait has been exceptional to say the least in the spring. Just dragging it along the bottom slowly has been killing. I average maybe 3 fish per bait, but i'll take that. Highly recommend it, oddly the hot color's been lime-purple passion for me.
From: Basstard: MN
Comments: I keep reading how "durable" these baits are. I've purchased a couple packs and have yet to catch more than one fish per bait. They get bit VERY WELL; there is now doubt about that. BUT, they haven't held up well for me. Just about every fish I catch on these baits; the bait is no longer on the hook when I boat them. I'm using a 5/0 Punch Hook. I'm torn weather to buy more or not. Price is good, baits catch fish, good action; just wish they held up A LITTLE better.
From: ACH: SoCal
Comments: Used this bait in a local pond. The absolutely smoke this bait. It was post frontal, i was burning it back to the boat and the smoked it. Good for a swim jig trailer too. Awseome action, very durable, and its only $3!! I used to throw the sweet beaver 4.20, Pit boss is way better in my opinion. Alot more action. The best color for me was junebug
From: Yangers: CA
Comments: Used this bait for pitching around docks and weed patched on Minnetonka and it was killer. I love the action you get from the flappers, all you have to do is rig it up with a 4/0 wide gap hook and a pegged 1/4 bullet weight then pitch it under a dock and let it sink to the bottom, when you pick up your slack youll feel a bass on. Great bait and for only $3 I love it!
From: Matt: MN
Comments: Great looking frog... I've seen them work well on videos, and hear how nice they work... Mine rolls over when I try to work it... I must've got a dud... Nice... I might try to stick a suspend dot/strip on one side and see if it straightens up... Or, buy another one and see if I get luckier...?...
From: Dave: Bay Area, CA
Comments: These bait are by far one of the best plastics i've ever used! California color is absolutely lights out. U will not be disappointed!
From: Luke: La Crescent, MN
Comments: I wish I'd bought more than one bag of these the first time out because the bass where I fish were eating them up! I've restocked for now and plan on getting more soon but don't hesitate on this one!
From: Mike: Jackson, MO
Comments: Outstanding bait, the only regret is I only bought one bag. Used it up the first day out.
From: Mike: Erwin, NC
Comments: It is a Pit Boss! Found out how well they worked on the Potomac last weekend! They do work differently then other beaver type baits
From: JC: PA
Comments: bass definately love the action. I've been using it texas rigged with trokar hook and popping it along the bottom or quick darting jerks. Con: doesn't hold up well. after the top is worn out I'll use the bottom on a jig
From: Barry: Sugar Grove, IL
Comments: amazing bait,tried it out for the first time this weekend and on the 3rd cast caught a 4 pounder. love the Okeechobee craw color. wish they held up a little better though still a great bait.
From: Jonathon: Mt. Juliet, TN
Comments: This bait is KILLER! Buy them and catch yourself some fish. It's a sweet beaver on steriods!
From: Chris: CA Delta
Comments: Great bait for getting a reaction strike. Just rip it off the bottom, and kill it.
From: James: Calumet City, AL
Comments: this is a pretty beefy bait. longer and thicker bodies than most other flippin baits i use.
From: John: D, CO

From: Johnny: Frisco, TX
Comments: sweet flipping bait. looks great on a swim jig too
Comments: Has great action. The center tail acts like a beaver bait and the outer tails flap. Good for flipping and swimming.
From: Brian: Mississippi, USA
Comments: One awesome bait, first cast caught a 3 pounder. Few cast later caught a 4 pounder. Will be buying more.
From: Larry: Millington, TN

Dogs LOVE'em
By Some are WAY too THIN for the $$$$$
from Arizona
Dogs love them BUT I got 4 that were soooo thin that they were NOT worth over $1 a piece. My smallest Rat Terrier chewed the thin ones in about 5 minutes. The others lasted about 20 minuets each. They are just put in a zip lock bag - so I'm guessing that some one just hand picks them and puts them in the bag. I would not buy them again.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
By Pom Mom
from Huntsville, AL
I use the Bully sticks as a special reward, not given daily however. The 6" is great for my 2 little Poms. They love to strut with the bully in their mouth, then get down to business chewing. Usually takes about 2 days til they have them down to about 2" then I remove them as I worry they may try to swallow the smaller piece instead of chewing.Due to the smell I try to get the less smelly, but not always. For the larger dogs, I would recommend the larger size.
The smellier the better
By Rico's mom
from Indianapolis, IN
Our chihuahua absolutely loves these bully sticks. The 4 inch ones seem to be smaller diameter & easier to chew for a small dog than the 6 inch ones.It helps keep him from chewing & shredding his cloth toys.
Bully sticks make my dogs happy.
By Fanci
from Grand Bay, AL
Keeps puppies quieter while crate training.
My dog loves 'em!
By fyrfly3
from San Diego, CA
My dog looks forward to receiving these bully sticks a couple of times a week. She is a strong chewer, and these sticks last longer than typical rawhide chews. They are also more nutritious than rawhide chews. They are a bit smelly, but the smell doesn't really linger.
onp free range bully sticks
By boxerpup
from jacksonville, fl
My boxer absolutely loves onp bully sticks. I always buy the 12 inch size and he gets them as a special treat. They're usually more expensive than the ones found in pet stores but they are so worth it! They last wayyy longer than the ones in the pet stores and I've noticed they also don't stink as much. These are great quality and I will always keep plenty of onp bully sticks on hand

Good, but...
By Sadie Rose's mom
from Waltham, MA
These are very good, but we paid extra for "extra thick" (what some dogs take hours to chew, my golden gets down in minutes - few minutes) to give her a little longer chewing time, but these are really skinny. If these are extra thick, I can't imagine what the regular ones are like - maybe a pencil? Other than that, good product. We are definitely Only Natural Pet fans.
Good bully sticks
By Riley's mom
from Florida
These are good bully sticks. They are long lasting and do not stink. My dog enjoys chewing them and they keep him busy for some time.

President Obama tanked in the last debate. Good.
Now maybe people will listen when Mitt Romney says things like, "The genius of America is the free enterprise system, and freedom, and the fact that people can go out there and start a business. ... The private market and individual responsibility always work best."
They do.
But then Romney responded to Obama by essentially saying: I want big government, too!
We who hope for smaller government as a way to expand liberty and create prosperity are disturbed by what we heard last week. The GOP candidate painted himself as a big...

Klaas Lodewyck registered his best result of the season Tuesday by finishing third in the penultimate stage of the Tour de Wallonie.
Perfect Lead Out
Lodewyck followed the wheels of teammates Steve Morabito and Adam Blythe as the peloton charged to the finish of the 207-kilometer race. But the winner of the most aggressive rider classification at the Tour of Oman said he hesitated when he hit the front. "It was a perfect lead out but I think I waited one or two seconds too long and that made me lose the victory," he said. "But I'm happy with third. Maybe tomorrow I can do better than this." Danilo Napolitano (Acqua & Sapone) won his second stage while Davide Appollonio (Sky ProCycling) was second. Lodewyck said he was told in the pre-race meeting the team would ride for him in the absence of Greg Van Avermaet, who left Monday for the Olympics. "I didn't feel pressure, but I was happy I could do my own thing and the guys believed in me," Lodewyck said. "So I tried to make the best of it. To start with a third place is not bad at all."
Eijssen Best-Placed Overall
BMC Racing Team Assistant Director Rik Verbrugghe said Lodewyck's result – and the BMC Racing Team's second straight top 10 finish after Van Avermaet was 10th on Monday – was a good example of teamwork. "Today was a really good day for us," Verbrugghe said. "I asked Adam and Steve to make the lead out for Klaas and they did a nice job. And before that, Johann Tschopp was trying to go in the early breaks." Yannick Eijssen (26th) is the BMC Racing Team's best-placed rider in the overall standings. He and Morabito are both 15 seconds back of race leader and Stage 3 winner Giacomo Nizzolo (RadioShack-Nissan) with only Wednesday's 179.2 km race to go. "Tomorrow, it will be a little bit the same as today," Verbrugghe said. "Klaas's shape is getting better and better, so we'll try to do it exactly the same."

The Right Honourable Edmund Burke (January 12, 1729 July 9, 1797) was an Anglo-Irish statesman, author, orator and political philosopher, who served for many years in the British House of Commons as a member of the Whig party. He is chiefly remembered for his support of the American colonies in the struggle against King George III that led to the American Revolution, as well as for his strong opposition to the French Revolution. The latter made Burke one of the leading figures within the conservative faction of the Whig party (which he dubbed the "Old Whigs"), in opposition to the pro-revolutionary "New Whigs," led by Charles James Fox. Burke also published philosophical work on aesthetics and founded the Annual Register, a political review. In his day he was considered one of the finest parliamentary orators in Britain.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (October 7, 2010)—Sarah's Secret made it two wins in as many starts, surprising heavily-favored Tales in Excess in a $41,360 allowance Thursday at Oak Tree/Hollywood Park.
Owned by breeder Joan Hadley Thoroughbreds and trained by Kathy Walsh, the 2-year-old daughter of Leroidesanimaux and the Luhuk mare Sarasota angled off the inside in the stretch and ran past the pacesetter, who was 3-10, in the final yards.
The 5-2 second choice in a field reduced to four after the scratch of May Day Rose, Sarah's Secret ran the 6 ½ furlongs over Cushion Track in 1:16.24.
Ridden by David Flores, Sarah's Secret returned $7 and $2.40. The place price on Tales in Excess, who had defeated maidens by 4 ½ lengths in her Del Mar debut on Sept. 4, was $2.10. There was no show wagering.
The Mike Harrington-trained duo of Swiss Wild Cat and Hi Ho Yodeler completed the order of finish.
An off-the-pace winner in her initial try at Del Mar on Aug. 22, Sarah's Secret, who won by a half-length, increased her earnings to $54,000.
Racing continues Friday evening. Post time is 7:05 p.m.
At the conclusion of the eight race program – approximately 10:30 p.m. – a concert starring Morris Day and the Time will begin at the North Park Lawn.
