Taxes on the wealthy ensure they pay most in income taxes
There's been a lot of commotion in recent years over taxes on the wealthy, with the assumption that they are obviously shirking their share thanks to loopholes. It isn't really that simple and in fact is something of a bad assumption to make as the facts don't support that idea.
Taxes on the wealthy make up most of what is paid
It's a widely held idea – in fact a misconception – that rich people are avoiding taxes. Entitlement programs are underfunded and so on and so forth, because Congress has been bought off and made loopholes that allow their wealthy "campaign contributors" to keep more of their money than they should. That capital gains taxes are lower than income taxes ensure that to be the case.
Actually, with the capital gains thing, there may be a point there. As to loopholes, there may be something there and Congress being bought off is probably true as well.
However, taxes on the wealthy are where the bulk of tax money comes from. According to CNN, the Tax Foundation found the top 10 percent of income earners were paying 70 percent of all income taxes by volume.
More than they used to
Not only that, but taxes on the wealthy are higher than they have been in some time. The current spread of 70 percent of taxes by volume, which the Congressional Budget Office also found in 2011, according to USA Today – though that's where the Tax Foundation got their information – is higher than it was in 1986, when the top 10 percent of earners paid 55 percent of taxes by volume.
Since that time, tax brackets have also increased. In 1986, there were two brackets – 15 percent and 28 percent. Today's seven brackets range from 10 percent to 40 percent at the top. Tax breaks for middle-class and lower-middle class earners are also generous, as credits such as the Earned Income Credit and various credit for parents ensure lower income households pay lower shares. As a result, 47 percent of the population pays next to nothing.
Didn't somebody say something about 47 percent of the population recently?
Where it falls down of course
That said, that doesn't necessarily mean all things are equal. Taxes on the wealthy are a bit different; as The Economist points out, income taxes are only applied on the first $110,000 of income, rather than all of it. Likewise, Social Security payrolls taxes are also applied on the first $110,000, so the bulk of that funding comes from deductions from wages. Medicare/Medicaid taxes are not capped, though.
Another consideration is the capital gains tax. Many of the wealthiest of the wealthy receive the bulk of their money through capital gains, which is taxed at only 15 percent.
There is also sales tax to consider. Sales and excise taxes aren't progressive, as income taxes are, so while a lower income individual might pay next to nothing in income taxes, they will fork over more of their income in sales taxes than a wealthier person might do. According to CNN, Citizens for Tax Justice found in a 2011 study that the top 10 percent of earners pay 30 percent of their income in state, local and federal taxes. Middle-class persons paid 25 percent, nearly the same amount. One-quarter of salary can leave quite a lot for some, but for others it's can be the difference between scraping by and needing short term loans to stay afloat.

User experiences (Testimonials)
There are a number of ergonomic office chair reviews to be read online. Are they trustworthy? The Back App users have made their own ergonomic chair review in which 76 % said that they had experienced significant positive health effects by sitting on Back App. Here you can see why users want to recommend the Back App as an excellent office chair.
I have a backapp chair in my clinic and recommend out to many patients with lower back,neck problems as well as headaches and stiff shoulders. Its a great chair to help with improving posture and more people should be using them. I would happily recommend patients to Mike as I know he will give great customer service and is very knowledgeable and professional.Gillian Brown, Clinic Manager
Mike was straightforwardly helpful in getting me the opportunity to try out the Back App, and I like the product, well thought out, aesthetic design and high quality finish.Charles Dean, Owner, Stroke Rehabilitation Ltd
Received a BackApp Chair as a prize from winnning a competition during the IEHF WEP conference in London. Thoroughly impressed with the chair and how helpful Mike was in the assembly but also the de-assemble of the chair for easy moving of it. Will hopefully be in contact soon with Mike again.Matthew Gill, Student in Loughborough University
Like so many professionals, I spend more time than I'd like to think in front of a computer/laptop etc. The trick is getting the right chair - which I've now done through The Back App ergonomic chair. No more back pain, stiff neck & shoulders.. It's helped my posture tremendously and makes me feel very positive about my business as I'm always sitting up nice and tall. Thanks Mike!Christine Brown-Quinn, Managing Director
After trying many chairs and stools, I chose to buy the Back app stool. Best for comfort, ergonomics design and style. No complicated adjustments. One fits all so you can share it with everybody! Love it and so do my clients who bought it!Murielle Carrasco, Pilates teacher
Mike came to my house to drop off the Backapp stool and desk for me to trial in my home office for a couple of weeks. The stool is a much more stylish alternative to the typical 'Pilates ball' you see being shared across a lot of offices in the UK. Not only does it look good, but it's a great core work out too!. The desk is fantastic. I have had spinal surgery myself and a stand up desk is a very important office tool. I would recommend it to anyone who has to sit all day.Rachael Carter, Independent Marketing Consultant
Cycling to work every day is great exercise but not so great for my legs when sitting at the desk all day. The Back App chair helped to open my posture and keep me moving. The result was more flexibility, not such tight legs and no back ache. Just wish I had come across Back App years ago!Andy Mather
What I like about the backapp chair is that it is different and makes one aware of how there are alternative ways, often simple, of undertaking an ordinary activity. In this case the result is extraordinary - for the assignments of reading, writing and computing are approached from a position that gives control. You feel in charge and on top of the task, which brings a vital element into the process - confidence.John Humphries, Editor & Publisher
Following a back injury where sitting without discomfort was impossible. Thanks to Mike and his efficient service, the ideal spec Back App was quickly sourced, which facilitated my rehabilitation and ongoing comfortable seating. A truly life changing product.Sharon Hunt, Beauty Therapist
I suffer from hip problems due to a fall which has caused a hip to seize up and therefore some curving of the spine to counteract the imbalance has occured. I was given the Back App on loan through work and am happy to report great success. It released so much pressure and stress on my back and even started to correct the imbalance. Highly recommended.Georgina Millington
I was lucky enough to win my chair at the NBE conference in 2012 and I love it! A number of my colleagues have been and had a try of it and rather liked it too so when I was to have 6 weeks off work; I took my chair home to prevent anyone pinching it in my absence. Whilst at home I found that even my cats loved it and wouldn't let anyone else get a look in!!! The general response from people trying my chair is usually "ooh that's nice; wouldn't you like to give it to me?"Tracy Day, Back Care Advisor
I've trialled a BackApp chair for a month at my home office and I really like it. It's made me determined to fix my back once and for all. No point in having chiropractic and physio treatment if not changing the daily stresses. I'm in the process of organising a workplace assessment with Occupational Health to convince them to provide me the same set up in the office as I spend 90% of my time there and it is noticeably worse than my home set up. I recommend people trying one out to see if it helps them.Andy Lowe
Mike is one of my supplier. I have found him to be very reliable in all business aspects. He always provide the best possible service and information I needed.Marcin Bozyk, Director at Back2 International
I discovered the Back App chair on a trip to Stockholm in 2010. It is one of the most recommended chairs for people like me -- those with neck and back injuries and pain who spend ridiculously long periods of time at the computer. Mike shipped two Back App chairs to me in a timely manner and the wired payment to his bank from the U.S. was easy thanks to his excellent instructions and communication. Not only do I recommend Mike for his thoughtful attention, but also the awesome Back App chair. For the first time in 20 years, even after 12 hours of work, I have very limited and manageable pain at the end of day. The popularity of the Herman Miller Aeron office chair here in the U.S. will be challenged once the Back App is available here!Lesley Kushner, Owner + Designer at Kokomo Clothing
The Back App chair is great for sustaining good posture whilst seated. It supports the pelvis well and allows the natural tilt whilst keeping hips open and knees happy. The spine is encouraged into natural alignment and as a result the deep postural muscles of the back are recruited. The gentle motion allows the whole body to remain fluid and active, very important when sitting.Angela Bradshaw, Alexander Technique teacher
- Good office chairs give positive health effects
- Good office chairs help you to relax while sitting
- Good office chairs help you sit upright
- Good office chairs strengthen your body

De Blasio's Plan to Kill Charter Schools
January 14, 2014
Bob McManus
Kiss charter schools good-bye.
Thats been a top Team de Blasio goal since the new mayor was polling in the single digits and courting the teachers union, and Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina on Monday telegraphed hints as to how the mission is to be accomplished.
Speaking with National Public Radio, the career Board of Ed bureaucrat had this to say about a proposal to extract rent from charter schools that happen to occupy space in traditional public schools:
I think that a lot of people make a lot of money on [charters]; if theres money for some things, theres got to be money for rent as well . . . I think right now we need space for our own kids. Youre going to have a large pre-K initiative. Where are we going to put some of those kids?
This is an astonishing statement on a couple of levels, but first be clear on this fundamental point: New York Citys seemingly endless charter-school debate has nothing to do with rental income or even money, except tactically. Intrinsically, it has very little to do with classroom space, either.
Its about the fact that most charter schools arent unionized, and that more often than not they work embarrassing the unionists.
This makes them an existential threat to the perceived best interests of the United Federation of Teachers, which involve the jobs, pay and perks of its members and never mind the kids. Now the union is calling the public-education shots, and it has decreed that the charter baby be drowned in the bathtub and, again, never mind the kids.
In this respect, Farinas NPR comments explain a lot.
First off, her assertion that we need space for our own kids borders on the bizarre. Forget space: New York Citys 160 charter schools are every bit as much public institutions as the 1,400 other schools that have been placed in Farinas custody. At least nominally.
Charter kids are her kids, too. They are New Yorks kids diverse, challenging, and also very much in need of a sophisticated, 21st-century education.
But Farinas distinction certainly tracks the UFT line and it also mirrors the view of anti-reform troglodytes like NYUs Diane Ravitch, a woman with substantial, if surreptitious, influence on the new administration.
The comment also calls into question the chancellors judgment, to say nothing of her independence and totally discounts the fact that charter schools work. Not all of them, of course, but most which is more than can be said for the system at large.
No surprise here; certainly parents know it. Thats why thousands of them turn out for charter-placement lotteries every year, fully understanding that theyll mostly leave disappointed because the demand vastly exceeds the available number of seats.

Trial begins for man charged in Honolulu Police officer fatality caseUPDATED 8:04 PM HST Oct 17, 2013
The trial begins for James Dorsey, who in September 2011 was driving drowsy and slammed into the car of Honolulu Police officer Eric Fontes, killing him.Video Transcript
A driver asleep at the wheel, a deadly crash, a Honolulu Police officer killed. The question jurors have to decide ... was that a crime? Good evening, I'm Paula Akana. It's our top story tonight.. KITV4's Jill Kuramoto takes us inside the courtroom where the trial for James Dorsey got off to a dramatic start. James Dorsey was 20 years old when he made the biggest mistake of his life. Driving Drowsy. 1:22:12 YOU'LL ALSO HEAR HIM SAY THAT HE WAS TIRED, SO TIRED THAT HE WAS BOBBING HIS HEAD Dorsey doesn't deny being tired that fateful night on September 13, 2011 -- and his attorney says he believed he could make it from Makiki... home to Maili. He didn't. Dorsey slammed into Honolulu Police officer Eric Fontes along the side of Farrington Highway... 1:42:57 THE SOUND OF IMPACT LIKE A LOUD IMPACT. LIKE A BOOM. 1:43:02 Former HPD officer Thomas Chun- Ming was there.. He was one of three officers stopped along the highway assisting with a traffic stop.. He narrowly missed being hit. Officer Herman Scanlon wasn't so lucky. Dorsey's truck hit him, too. 1:44:37 OFFICER SCANLAN APPEARED TO BE INJURED. INITIALLY HAD A DIFFICULT TIME TALKING. GURGLING. HIS EYES WERE ROLLING BACK. 1:44:42 1:58:24 I Do Scanlan doesn't remember much of that night. 2:00:03 TO ME I FELT SAFER WITH ALL THESE LIGHTS BUT APPARENTLY NOT THAT NIGHT. 2:00:07 Prosecutors say Fontes was killed by the impact. The narrow path Dorsey's truck took is nearly impossible to imagine... and the defense claims was certainly not intentional. 1:25:15 THE QUESTION YOU MUST ASK YOURSELVES IS WHETHER JAMES SHOULD BE FOUND CRIMINALLY LIABLE FOR THE CHOICES HE MADE THAT DAY. AND THE EVIDENCE WILL SHOW HE IS NOT. 1:25:27 Reporting from Circuit Court, JK KITV4 News. Trial continues tomorrow.

By Inthralld on Jun 26, 2012
The area of Norrmalm in Stockholm, Sweden has become quite known in the architecture and design world for some of the most beautifully designed small apartments, and the latest multi level duplex certainly falls right in line with that notion.
The duplex is located atop the top two floors of a historical 1885′s building, and is essentially nothing more than a two story attic. The home spans just 1,302 square feet, and is even equipped with a beautiful terrace that offers stunning views of the city. The interior is covered almost entirely in white, with simple stainless and wood accents providing wonderful contrast.

Detroit: A Biographyby Scott Martelle
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Detroit was established as a French settlement three-quarters of a century before the founding of this nation. A remote outpost built to protect trapping interests, it grew as agriculture expanded on the new frontier. Its industry took a great leap forward with the completion of the Erie Canal, which opened up the Great Lakes to the East Coast. Surrounded by untapped natural resources, Detroit turned iron from the Mesabi Range into stoves and railcars, and eventually cars by the millions. This vibrant commercial hub attracted businessmen and labor organizers, European immigrants and African Americans from the rural South. At its mid-20th-century heyday, one in six American jobs were connected to the auto industry, its epicenter in Detroit. And then the bottom fell out.
Detroit: A Biography takes a long, unflinching look at the evolution of one of Americas great cities, and one of the nations greatest urban failures. It tells how the city grew to become the heart of American industry and how its utter collapse—from 1.8 million residents in 1950 to 714,000 only six decades later—resulted from a confluence of public policies, private industry decisions, and deep, thick seams of racism. And it raises the question: when we look at modern-day Detroit, are we looking at the ghost of Americas industrial past or its future?
"Former Detroit News reporter Martelle (Blood Passion) vividly recounts the rise and downfall of a once-great city, from its origins as a French military outpost to protect fur traders and tame local Indian tribes, to the industrial giant known colloquially as Motown, and now when its 'economy seized up like an engine run dry.' Founded by a French naval officer named Cadillac, the city became a vibrant river town with the Erie Canal's opening, exporting both to the east and westward to Chicago. The 1855 opening of Lake Superior later expanded its postbellum shipping capacity and brought heavy industry. By 1929, about 10% of the city's population of 1.6 million (the nation's fourth largest) worked in automobile manufacturing. But a series of downturns ravaged the city: the 1973 OPEC oil embargo helped destroy the city's auto-industry dominance, and drug-dealing gangs caused a murder rate that far outstripped New York's. Today, says Martelle, Detroit has been abandoned by both the Big Three auto makers and most of its citizens, leaving primarily black residents, many uneducated, jobless, and poor. Martelle, also an occasional contributor to PW, offers an informative albeit depressing glimpse of the workings of a once-great city that is now a shell of its former self. Illus.; 10 b&w photos. Agent: Dystel and Goderich." Publishers Weekly Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
At its heyday in the 1950s and 1960s, Detroit's status as epicenter of the American auto industry made it a vibrant, populous, commercial hub—and then the bottom fell out. Detroit: A Biography takes a long, unflinching look at the evolution of one of America's great cities and one of the nation's greatest urban failures. This authoritative yet accessible narrative seeks to explain how the city grew to become the heart of American industry and how its utter collapse—from nearly two million residents in 1950 to less than 715,000 some six decades later—resulted from a confluence of public policies, private industry decisions, and deeply ingrained racism. Drawing from U.S. Census data and including profiles of individuals who embody the recent struggles and hopes of the city, this book chronicles the evolution of what a modern city once was and what it has become.

Ducks look ahead to USC
Oregon went through about a 90-minute practice today at the Galen Center to prepare for Saturday's 1 p.m. game with USC. The Ducks began practice just about 13 hours after an 87-83 win in double overtime at UCLA.
"They're a little tired, it was a late night, so a little bit tired, but we got a lot done today," UO coach Dana Altman said. "So it worked out okay."
The Ducks blew a 15-point second-half lead against UCLA and missed numerous opportunities to put the game away before David Wear's 26-foot three-pointer at the buzzer forced overtime.
Leading by two, two of Oregon's top free throw shooters, Joseph Young and Jason Calliste, combined to miss three free throws in the final 43 seconds of regulation. Leading by one with six seconds left, Oregon committed a turnover. Leading by two with 1.3 seconds left in regulation, Young was supposed to miss his second free throw intentionally and he tried to do that, but made it to set up Wear's tying shot. Oregon scored only two points in the first overtime and had back-to-back shot-clock violations.
But in the end, the Ducks won their fourth straight game to improve to 7-8 in conference and 19-8 overall.
"If we wouldn't have won that, that would have been tough," Altman said. "We had it, we let them back into it, but then to find a way to win definitely was big. If that hadn't come out, that would have been hard."
While Calliste and Young missed crucial free throws late in regulation, Elgin Cook was 7-for-8 at the line and was 6-for-6 in the second overtime. Leading 81-79 with 26 seconds left in the second overtime, Oregon inbounded the ball to Cook, a 65-perent free-throw shooter, and he made both.
"Going to the out-of-bounds play, we thought they were going to deny Johnny (Loyd) because he had hit a couple," Altman said. "We wanted to get it to Johnny because he was the one with the most confidence. After that, Elgin had stepped up and hit two free throws and he kind of wanted the ball. Mike (Moser) had missed some, Joe and Jason had missed some, so we put (Cook) in that position and he went 6-of-6 down the stretch. He did a great job."
On the inbound play where Moser passed to Loyd, who stepped out of bounds late in regulation, UCLA's Bryce Alford stepped over the line while guarding Moser and actually ran by the Oregon forward on a play that had Oregon fans fired up after the game.
"One of those things," Altman said. "Dot was in the game, we had gone small and Dot just didn't make the adjustment to being the '4' man. He was out of position on the inbound play, that's why we had the congestion we had."
Across town on Thursday, USC lost 76-66 to Oregon State to fall to 1-14 in Pac-12 play, but Altman said he isn't worried about his team overlooking the Trojans after the big win over the Bruins. USC led Oregon 38-34 at halftime earlier this month at Matthew Knight Arena before UO outscored the Trojans 44-28 in the second half. Last year, Oregon escaped with a 76-74 win at USC.
"They had a tough game at our place, the press turned the game around, but I don't think our guys will take them lightly," Altman said. "First of all, they know (Byron) Wesley and (J.T.) Terrell can play for anybody. I don't think we will take them lightly. It is their senior day, we have got to get ready to play and match their energy."
Altman added: "They're scary because they can score baskets. They are a lot different team, it is their senior day. Scary, scary game."
Altman played his usual 10-man rotation against UCLA, but with the two overtimes, Loyd played 44 minutes, Moser and Calliste played 40, and Young played 39. Dotson, Cook and Amardi all played at least 19 minutes as well.
"We're going to have to have more production out of our bench, but we're fine," Altman said.

"Three Days in Haiti, Part 1: Meet Julie Roberts" by Emily Beers, CrossFit Journal article [pdf]
Parents, Pot, and Prohibition: Daisy Bram's Story, by Paul Feine and Alex Manning.
How is that safe? She should have dumped. That is not intensity, but pure stupidity
What medical issue does Daisy Bram have that requires her to grow 30 marijuana plants? Did they mention that?
It's not always easy to dump in a squat clean, Mike. Especially if you fail at the bottom of the squat like it looks like.
better question than the two previous...why is chuck liddell into crossfit spotting now?
#1... You mean he should have jumped. That's 225# on the bar.
I think that couple deserved to have their children taken away solely for naming them Thor and Zeus.
@#7...don't forget invictus...the third son...invictus. *bang*bang*bang...
Why do you assume that a video about the consequences of drug criminalization means CrossFit is leftist?
Drug legalization is fully consistent with support for individual rights and small government, is it not?
One who doesn't want the government interfering with his income or weapons should easily understand why one wouldn't want the government telling him what to smoke.
A million dollar bail for cultivation of a plant with so many amazing healing properties while child rapists walk free after a couple of months of jail. Our society has got everything so backwards from the way we exercise and eat to rediculous laws that put non violent drug users in prison.
It's all good, as long as you don't smoke within 25 feet of a Starbucks.
Wow! Somebody polish up the "Mother of the Year" award. Are we supposed to applaud this dizzy broad because she decided to start growing pot again after CPS took her children once? Way to prove your point.
She goes so far as to say "My kids hate me!" Well, they are not alone. Anyone with two brain cells to rub together hates you too. Perhaps the medicinal marijuana will help cure chronic selfishness. BTW...Why is this on CF.com?
The article in question shouldn't even be an issue. Prohibition is immoral and un-Constitutional.
yea for rest day articles!
Is the chick in that picture OK?
Marijuana prohibition is a failed policy that has resulted in increased crime and a massive financial burden for all levels of government. Legalize it!
I'm glad they took her kids away. She doesn't deserve to be a parent. Why is this on CF website? Is this poor excuse of a human supposed to somehow make CFers perform better? I hope she never gets her kids back.
Why does this woman not deserve to be a parent?
AntFarm and everyone else with dreadful posts and ideas about a mother, her children, and her use and cultivation of cannibus; you are probably a sociopath. Anyone who is against hemp/marijuana products and the good they can do for health, economics, industry, even liberty and freedom for that matter. Is against the majority. Good luck. Your mission is failing and your mind is full of anger caused by fear and ignorance. I hope you don't procreate your ideals.
Wow. So disapointed. The only story to post on crossfit from my hometown. The best view of this dirty, crime infested town is from I-5.
I just can't bring myself to feel sympathy for this couple.
They choose to smoke/grow pot over their children.
Whether pot should be legal is a reasonable topic of discussion, but it's not currently. They knew this and especially the second time around they knew the result of their actions.
Maybe the law should change, but it isn't yet. It's just sad when people prioritize their drugs over their children.
I do feel sorry for the guys on his knees in the photo because everyone keeps calling him a girl!
Well said Shawn. My politics on marijuana laws, legalize it. My opinion of the actions of these two parents, especially after the ordeal they went through the first time around, POOR judgement and parenting. Side note: had to be said, that is one fine set of woman haunches preparing to clean that bar, nothing sexier than a set of crossfit thighs and glutes on a fine specimen such as this.
The person on their knees in the picture is a MAN, during TEAM events.
Well, we can't see how the person actually got into the position but male or female they should have probably dumped by the point the picture was taken. Anybody know what happened after this? Did he end up being responsible and dumping or trying to stand back up under that weight? Wasn't there an article a few days back saying how CrossFit (tm) could be bad when people trade intensity for common sense and a bunch of the knuckleheads here got all bent out of shape about it? Keep going like this and soon we'll have a daily pic of a compound leg fracture like the guy in the basketball playoffs.
Let's all remember to train and compete smart everybody.
Regardless of any political views, the woman broke the law...period. Did she really have the intent to sell? Who knows? She was allowed to have 12 plants, she had 50. Do I agree with her kids being taken? probably not, but after the first time, get your head straight, lady. Irresponsible parent in my opinion. The only reason this case is getting any exposure is because of the marijuana issue. If the child was taken from the parent for some other "harmless" yet illegal act, we would hear nothing about it. For the record, I don't now, nor have I ever smoked marijuana and don't plan to but I don't care if other people do, other than the fact that in most states, it is illegal.
How many times do you have to have your kids taken away by CPS before you stop growing pot?
The law is a real bitch, ain't it?
Great video, and it's especially timely here in Ohio, where medical marijuana will likely be voted on soon. It reveals problems on both sides of the medical marijuana issue:
1) Overzealous law enforcement, tearing apart families over marijuana, when serious drugs like heroin or meth should and can be targeted instead. If you've ever lost someone to these drugs, you probably realize the difference between them and marijuana is like night and day. For that matter, alcohol is a socially acceptable (and sometimes deadly) drug that anyone 21 and up can purchase at the corner gas station.
2) I will preface the following by pointing out that the video never mentions the medical condition for which she was prescribed marijuana... we don't know if it was for a serious condition, such as cancer, or something like "insomnia." That said - the couple in the video knew they were taking a chance with their children (and freedom) to start growing a second time, and decided that medical marijuana is worth the risk. I felt bad for them the first time, but found it difficult to sympathize when their back-room operation was discovered in their new home.
The biggest danger the couple posed to those children was possible ridicule for being named them Thor, Zeus, and Invictus.

opinions aside, how about posting some times for this workout??
Awful form. A crossfitter at a regional level, should be able to clean 225 with no problem, specially during team events. Also, at this level, he should be able to bail safely if needed.
"I believe CrossFit HQ is slightly to the left of Chairman Mao when it comes to politics."
Quite possibly the funniest Rest Day post in the history of CrossFit.
What happen to personal responsibility?
You have two stories motherhood.
One decides that she will do everything she can to be a great mom and citizen. The other decides to break the law and is now crying about it.
Whether you agree with medical marijuana use or not, you're an adult, you made the decision (twice), you live with the consequences. "Poor me." There is no injustice here, Daisy broke federal law twice! She should own up to her faults.
I posted once after my level 1 course four years ago. This is my second post.
I think the guy on the ground in the pic has his feet set a bit too wide for that lift....and maybe his elbows are a touch too close....or maybe I'm doing it wrong. We've all been there (or close to it) if you've ever tried to push past a point you know you'll fail at, so give the guy some slack for trying.
But then again, maybe his chin isn't far enough forward......

I thought CrossFit was about community and family. 2 inappropriate pics in 2 weeks and now politics. Once again disappointed and really contemplating not affiliating because of it. Love CrossFit! HATE what it is becoming!
Are they just citizens? Do they work, pay taxes, volunteer, act as morally and ethically citizens should. Then what the hell is wrong with growing it or smoking it? For one, it's much less devastaing than alcohol and alcohol rule this country!!! I think everyone should mind their own business and work on their own issues....
I'm so disappointed that the only thing ever to be mentioned here about my hometown has nothing to do with crossfit. Not only is it completely irrelevant to crossfit, it projects our town and nor cal in general to be a safe haven for uneducated, irresponsible,idiots. We have great people pushing themselves daily to promote health and well being in our community but nothing like that is ever promoted to mainstream media.The only attention we ever get is negative, thanks to liberal agendas trying to paint a picture of poor people being used by a system when the individuals in the story signed themselves up to fail.
As others have said, weather or not pot should be legal is a separate issue. They both chose the "desire" for marijuana to be legal over raising their children in a safe healthy home. I do not know why this surprises me. They chose to move from one state to another not to make a better life for their kids but to be in a place that has lighter rules against marijuana. If they are guilty or not is for the courts to decide, but one thing is for sure. They chose to put their children through this when they chose to grow, especially a second time.
I can't believe no one has commented on the faces of the team members in the background of the featured picture. Unimpressed is an understatement!
Should've started a caption competition
Oh Eric (#46) please don't affiliate. You're right. If you don't like it now, you will hate it when we don't change everything for your tastes. You're much better off finding the community in which you feel comfortable. Good luck.
"One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."
"There are just laws and there are unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that an unjust law is no law at all... One who breaks an unjust law must do it openly, lovingly...I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law."
-Dr. MLK Jr. "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" 1963
#37 John, I don't see how this pic promotes poor practices. I can't see anyone thinking "so THAT'S how a clean, or squat, or TGU should be done!" What the pic shows is the intensity and drive these competitors have. Should he have dumped earlier? Sure. But so what. He's there, giving his all to his team. That's the message.
#46/Eric (and others), HQ frequently brings politics onto the page, esp. on rest days. I sometimes do, frequently don't agree w/ what's posted, but that's sorta the point--to generate discussion within the CF community/family. The beauty is that no one need read the articles at all, esp. on rest days, if one is so bothered by the topic.
My issue isn't with smoking or even growing marijuana. I personally could not care less what done one does to themselves. My issue is this parent knew it was illegal yet chose to break the law twice. She didn't learn from her first mistake in an attempt to keep her children like a mature adult would. Instead she decided to move to another county and try again which cost her her third child. So now I guess she's childless so I don't care what she does now.
my main concern from these comments is that half these people think that's a girl.
My 2nd main concern is the people who think that cleaning until you are literally unable to bail on a missed lift and fall in a position that is likely to cause permanent damage to his knees is somehow admirable.
again. wow.
Who's a better parent...
Someone who hits the bar as soon as they get done work, hammers down as many drinks as they can in an hour, swirves home, misses dinner with the family, has a couple more cocktails home, passes out early, oversleeps and shows up late to work to find out they are victim to a random drug test. They come up clean and get to keep his or her job?
Someone who packs a bowl when they get home from work, helps their spouse prepare dinner/clean up, is coherent and pleasant, helps the kids with their homework, goes to bed, wakes up in the morning feeling fresh, gets to work 10 minutes early ready to work, only to be piss tested when they arrive?
#56/Billy G-
I would say neither of those things are good. The first one is clearly alcohol abuse, and the second one is generally illegal, and if the parent is working at a place that drug tests, they probably shouldn't be smoking pot. If you work at a place that doesn't drug test and want to smoke and it is legal, more power to you. But if you lose your income because you engage in an illegal activity, that still makes you irresponsible.
A few questions arose after I watched Daisy's story, some of which have already been mentioned: What is her medical condition that necessitates her smoking pot, and does she have other treatment options? For places where medicinal marijuana is legalized, are individuals allowed to grow their own plants and if so how many plants are they allowed to possess (is 30 plants excessive)? $1mil bond for the father's bail seems rediculously high and makes me think there's something else going on. I just feel there's more to this story than we're being told.
That letter from MLK Jr. (RIP Milton #52) brings up some interesting points:
-"one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws"
-"an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law."
In general I agree with these statements, but it certainly requires some serious thought into what one is willing to sacrifice in order to satisfy one's "moral responsibility." Perhaps Daisy's story will contribute towards legislative changes, or perhaps not. But is that slim possibility for catalyzing change worth being a martyr for? Is this issue in general worth losing your kids for? As a father myself I say hell no. I feel for Daisy and especially her kids but I think she's got to sit back and prioritize her life a little better. If I was single, without dependants, and smoked pot I'd probably think differently, but right now I'd do anything and everything I could to keep my family intact. Maybe I'd be a moral crusader for a different cause, but not this one. Just my opinion.
Always good to exercise the mind with a little healthy debate.
Billy G, your logic is so ridiculous. Here is the second person you just described. Wfs http://www.cnn.com/2013/06/04/justice/new-york-pot-mom-arrest/index.html
It comes down to priorities. She clearly chose marijuana over her children the second time she broke the law. It doesn't matter whether you agree with the law or not. No one can argue that she didn't know the consequences. She clearly loves marijuana more than her children.
I don't think it is worth losing ones children for. As a parent the #1 responsibility is to ensure you are doing everything you can to afford your children a better life: To protect, to guide, to set an example etc... However I believe that opposing, what I view as, an infringement upon my liberties is part of that job as a parent. If I am going to teach my children that authoritarian government and any act to limit freedom is wrong, then I am obligated to oppose that law.
I'm not willing to go to jail over pot, mainly because I don't smoke pot, but I will continue to be vehemently opposed to marijuana being illegal.
It is impossible for government to legislate morality without infringing upon rights. Morality is a singular subjective matter, therefore any attempt to create a singular morality will necessarily be limiting freedoms for a large number of people.
What does pot have to do with Crossfit? I was expecting a comeback story, but instead got a story on an idiot who first named her children ridiculous names, and second was arrested for the same crime twice. Am I supposed to feel sorry for her? I don't!
Maybe he is in the middle of bailing. I have been driven straight into the the ground by more than one snatch before I could dump it. Photog might have caught him in the act.
#53 Jim,
You pretty much made my point. CrossFit posted a pic of a games competitor "giving all for his team". Taking into account the general attitude of CrossFit, I believe the message to be: "this is what it takes to be a serious competitor".
CrossFit, at one time, was a training program. Something that was supposed to facilitate achievement and enjoyment in other parts of someone's life. Now everything focuses on competition. Instead of mastering movements in the name of efficiency the message is just push through anyway possible.
Btw this isn't the first time CrossFit has posted (in my opinion endorsed) this type of thing. http://www.crossfit.com/mt-archive2/007706.html
1. @bingo - you're right on the money
2. I miss all these great articles. The main site hasn't been the same since they started limiting them over a year a ago.
3. Legalize it! It's unjust to allow one narcotic (alcohol or cigarettes) and ban another. Take some personal responsibility and teach your family the right thing and you won't have to worry if they'll turn into a junkie.
4. No one ever said his site was family safe. Again, take responsibility for your family and guide hem through life. Don't hope and pray that someone else will apply the appropriate filters for your kids to view the world. Also, use these moments to teach your kids about other lifestyles and what your principles are.
8 rds + 250 meter row, 23 push ups
arms fired. need recharge.
Ahhh, small that? You smell that!?
That's.... rest day "politics."
I get a kick out of all of the angst over the non-fitness stuff here. As if someone was hurt by the posting of a video they don't have to watch - and then taking the time to complain about it on the free website. Talk about authoritarian: "How DARE you post a video [on this free website] - [in a (relatively) open society] - [that is already publicly available elsewhere] - on rest day!!"
As to the substance: I had a couple of reactions. First, like most people, I have a huge problem when the government comes in and takes someone's kids under the parens patriae doctrine. The lawyer in me reacted by thinking procedurally: why in the criminal law are you presumed innocent until proven beyond a reasonable doubt, but in the CPS context, presumed guilty by the mere presence of weed in your house? i.e. How is she presumed unfit and the children "endangered" - and immediately taken when there has been no hearing, no evidence presented, no due process, and no legal procedure at all? Does no one else find that at all troubling?
What happens when it's your kid and it's not weed? Let's say it's an allegation by a neighbor you've previously had a boundary dispute with? Who decides when the police come in and snatch your kids? I see nothing that protects ANY parent from that, nor any real oversight that protects from an abusive or overzealous law enforcement department. Anyone else have any insight?
Second, I had a hard time empathizing the second go-round (like most people). HOWEVER, did it feel to anyone else like she was targeted the second time? I'm having a hard time imagining it was a co-inky-dink when they show up the second time.
All in all, I'm with mamma on this one. The thought of cops coming into my house to take my children over my opposition, particularly over something like this or analogous, is offensive to my freedom-loving, American sensibilities.
Come on, if you have script it makes it legal.
Is the article suggesting the police are arbitrarily arresting people for legal scripts? That is not happening. This is 2013, there are lawyers on every corner just waiting for police, district attorney's who prosecute these casese to abuse power or falsely arrest someone.
Additionally making marijuana legal does not change the real problem which is crime linked to drug abuse. People who smoke pot all day steal, burglarize, rob innocent people for the MONEY to buy it. Peole who smoke pot all day do not work. Everyday people are not in jail for possessing small amounts of marijuana for personal use. There is a liberal agenda to project that innocent people, like these people in the article, are victims.
#68 the todd
Did you just watch Reefer Madness?
"Additionally making marijuana legal does not change the real problem which is crime linked to drug abuse. People who smoke pot all day steal, burglarize, rob innocent people for the MONEY to buy it. Peole who smoke pot all day do not work."
Hmm well let me see where to start. Well people who smoke pot all day do in fact work in a lot of instances. For example my mother, I do not condone her behavior, is a CPA/controller at a publicly-held company, and she smokes pot all the time. She has also raised four children that have so far gone onto receive 7 degrees(4 B.s.'s 2 M.A.'s and a Ph.d, will be more once I finish my graduate schooling). She may be less productive than she otherwise would be, but she doesn't burglarize, steal, or rob as you so naively and presumptuously suggested. I would characterize her as a productive member of society.
I think there is a problem with smoking weed in excess everyday; just as I think there is a problem with drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, or taking prescription drugs everyday.
However I am not so pretentious as to think that I should be able to determine what other people do with their own lives.
that's all great but who is it? in the tight shorts?
Bottom line......its against the law. Sheriff's departments don't raid houses just for fun. A judge had to sign a warrant that contained enough probable cause to believe that a crime was committed. Cps don't take kids away for bs reasons. Open your eyes. This is why our country is taking a giant crap.....
Comment #70 - Posted by: R.I.P. Milton Friedman
Uncle Milty,
That is so ridiculous that it has to be true. A publicly held business that lets their employee smoke pot all day. Love it.

5* Big Ten Blue Chip High Roller Top Play
5* Big Ten Blue Chip High Roller Top Play
Iowa vs. Minnesota, 09/28/2013 15:30 EDT, Score: 23 - 7
Point Spread: -1½/-115 Iowa
Sportsbook: BETONLINE
Result: Win
5* Big Ten Blue Chip High Roller Top Play
---Iowa Hawkeyes -1.2---
This is a very favorable line for the Hawkeyes, as they should have no trouble beating the Golden Gophers on Saturday. Minnesota comes in with a 4-0 record, but haven't played anyone. Their 51-23 win over UNLV and 43-24 victory last week against San Jose State are very misleading. Both of those game were a lot more competitive than the final score would indicate.
Last year Minnesota came into Iowa City with a 4-0 non-conference record and the Hawkeyes won 31-13 as a six-point favorite. I came into the season saying Iowa was one of the most improved teams in the country and they haven't disappointed. Prior to that win over the Golden Gophers last year Iowa had just lost at home to Central Michigan 31-32. This time they come in off a 59-3 beatdown of Western Michigan. Iowa has also proved they can win on the road, going into Ames and beating Iowa State convincingly in a huge in-state rivalry matchup.
In order for Minnesota to have success offensively they have to be able to run the football. They come into this game ranked 118th in the country averaging just 105.3 ypg through the air. Iowa is built to stop the run. They rank 12th in the country, giving up just 91.5 ypg and most importantly are giving up just 3.4 yards/carry. Iowa's defense should dominate this game and get more than enough from their high-powered rushing attack to win and easily cover this spread. BET THE HAWKEYES!

How to be green when spring cleaning your home
The sun is shining, the skies are blue so what's it time to do – spring clean of course?
But rather than choke your home (and your family) with toxic cleaners to get the job done, why not make use of those leftover fruit and veggies that are languishing in your fruit bowl and save money too.
Here's my top frugally fruity cleaning tips to get you start:
1. Lemons – to get your microwave sparkling clean and to rid it of any nasty niffs, simply cut a lemon in half, place in a microwavable bowl half filled with water and microwave for 3 minutes. The fresh citrus fragrance deodorizes the microwave whilst the condensation from the steam loosens dirt, which can be easily wiped away.
2. Cucumbers – save that bendy cucumber from the bin and de-streak your bathroom mirror instead. Simply cut a few slices of cucumber and wipe across the mirror and buff to a shine. Not only will it de-streak your mirror, it'll be mist-free next time you have a shower or bath.
3. Banana – dull silverware? Simply remove the stringy pulp from the inside of a banana skin and buff your silverware. This simple trick also works great on leather furniture, shoes and on household plant leaves.
Have you got any fruity cleaning tips you would like to share, it'd be great to compile a list of the best ones? Either add a comment here or hop over to my Facebook page and add it there.

Dr. Mauer Biscotti's Ratings
Dr. Biscottis staff are not the most pleasant people to deal with. When going to see the Dr. expect to be in the waiting room for at least an hour and a half to two hours past your scheduled time. With that being said Dr. Biscotti is very knowledgeable and helpful. I have been seeing this Dr. for 20+ years and will continue to do so.

This doctor is the worst doctor I've ever been too. He is very unreliable. If you have an apt at 12 he won't get to you until an hour and a half later because he just sits and bull shots with his patients like their friends. He should treat everyone the way we all are which are his patients. I've also talked him about switching medication 5 different times and he ignores me. I need a new dr.
