Skip to comments.High Court Justice: Obama Birth Certificate Fishy
Posted on 03/31/2012 10:34:02 PM PDT by SaveOurRepublicFromTyranny
An Alabama State Supreme Court justice earlier this week agreed that findings suggesting Barack Obama presented a forged birth certificate to the nation would raise serious questions about the [document's] authenticity if presented as evidence in court.
Though the Alabama court denied a a petition filed by Hugh McInnish seeking to require an original copy of Obamas birth certificate before the sitting president would be allowed on the states ballot in November, Justice Tom Parker filed a special, unpublished concurrence in the case arguing that McInnishs charges of forgery were legitimate cause for concern.

Parker writes, Mclnnish has attached certain documentation to his mandamus petition, which, if presented to the appropriate forum as part of a proper evidentiary presentation, would raise serious questions about the authenticity of both the short form and the long form birth certificates of President Barack Hussein Obama that have been made public.

people are brain dead or just thicker then lead
the birth certificate gives you TWO of the THREE pieces needed to establish whether or not someone is a natural born citizen
the birth certificate provides:
1. place of birth
2. date of birth
this establishes age along with being born on the soil. the final piece needed is:
3. citizenship of BOTH parents at the time of birth
without #3... any anchor baby could qualify to be president with two mexican parents.
the term 'natural born citizen' was well established and recognized around the world at the time of the founders and to today.
if some drooling idiot doesn't think #3 is required, point them towards the supreme court ruling of minor v happersett in 1874.
"The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. "
I've seen some sort of Photoshop enhanced picture of Hussein's BC online. Anyone ever see the original paper version? There should be one - no?
Show the Judge the Sel Ser Reg form, with the FORGED upside-down half postmark!
That's a great post.
Founding fathers are shaking their head in shame and disgust at the pure weeny-ism that is America now.
He KNOWS it's forged, and is in a position to DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT, but still lacks the testicular fortitude to actually DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
Bingo! Only "suspect" scans have been tendered as "proof" and they don't meet the smell test.
Due to the cowardliness on BHO's BC I'll always have doubts about all of the big mouth 'conservatives' from Rush to Malkin and every coward in office or law enforcement in the country! Frig em all!
As long as there is free stuff and free money in it for them, 50% of Americans could care less if Obama was from Brazil.
We have no idea where Mr. Obama actually comes from, who funded him, what intelligence agencies trained him but his actions to date indicate he deliberately inflicts damage on America while taking human rights and environmental stands.
His agenda is not complete. He has more in store to undermine America. I shudder thinking about the possibilities. Obama should be impeached for his crimes already.
Welcome Justice Parker.
While the various fake BC's have been invalidated by many - amateur and pro alike - NO competent, unbiased, legitimate person or entity has ever vouched for the validity of any.
No CIA, No FBI, No Secret Service.... NO ONE.
Statements from HI regarding possession and validity of Obumo's BC have been carefully worded dodges at best.
MediaMatters once "validated" a COLB that was quickly proven to be "shopped".
So when no one will officially authenticate a document, whatayagot? FRAUD
Rick (Pawn Stars) wouldn't even make an offer on Obumo's papers.
Justice Parker "filed a special, unpublished concurrence in the case arguing that plaintiff's charges of forgery were legitimate cause for concern."
Really going out on a limb there, Justice Parker. Thanks for nothing.
Can't help with photo of Lee, but here is another BC with that signature. It was a real person.
Yes, and there appears to be a significant number of people whose biggest motivation is to have people in power who will stick it to the people they resent. Not only would these voters not care about the citizenship and eligibility of the President, they would actively assist in hiding the truth from the American public if they could. Their motivations are personal, and born of resentment, not patriotism. The bottom line is that a fair number of Americans dislike America.
Good example you have there. With this birth certificate (it shows the birthplace of the parents) it shows only one U.S.-born parent. The other is foreign-born, so we don't have conclusive evidence of her U.S. citizenship at the time of this child's birth.
1. Why did then Senator Obama order a short form in 2007?
2. Why did President Obama order a long form in 2011?
3. What happened to the birth certificate that Obama talked about in one of his books? He wrote that when he was a youngster, he accidentally found his birth certificate along with his school shot documents.
4. Did Obama simply lose his original birth certificate like many of us do?
5. Did the dog eat it?
6. Was his original birth certificate in so bad shape that Obama felt that it was time to get another one?
7. Why did Obama order a short form in 2007, when, at the time, he could easily order a long form?
8. If Obama ordered a long form in 2011 because he lost the one he had, then I wonder how many years passed between the time he lost his long birth certificate and the time he ordered one in 2011.
9. Reporters: Is there a reporter who will have the courage to simply ask candidate Obama why he ordered a short form in 2007 and a long form in 2011? I hope there is.
Hawaii Department of Health Registrar Identified! (U.K.L.Lee is Verna K.L.Lee)
I have some questions about this Coats 1962 long form birth certificate:
1. Lee, the registrar signature: Why is Lee's signature on the Coats' long form and on Obama's long form, but it is not on the Nordyke Aug. 1961 long form from the same hospital?
2. In 1961, was Lee the registrar assigned to Coats' hospital as well as Obama's Kapiolani Hospital?
3. My point is this: We need to look at other long form birth certificates from Kapiolani Hospital from 1961 to make sure that Obama's long form is not the ONLY one from Aug. 1961 that has Lee's signature, while all the others from Aug. 1961 have another registrar's signature.
4. Problem: If Obama's long form is the only one that has Lee's signature in 1961 from Kapiolani Hospital while the others from the same hospital have someone else's signature, then I think Obama has a serious problem and some explaining to do.
5. Maria Coats signature compared to Stanley's signature: Look how Coats signature is on the line, while Stanley's signature does not touch the line. Why is that?
6. World Net Daily: In an article at World Net Daily, a computer expert wrote that it was humanely impossible for a person to write his name along that line like Stanley did and not touch the line .
7. In fact, the computer expert wrote that Stanley's signature was perfectly aligned along the line, and it missed touching the line exactly one pixel along the entire length of the signature, which, according to the expert, only a computer could do so perfectly.
8. Again, if Lee's signature is only on Obama's long form from Kapiolani Hospital and not on others from the same hospital and from the same 1961 year---NOTE: we know that Lee's signature is legitimate because we have his signature on the long form birth certificate of Maria Coats from another hospital in 1962--- then I say that Obama has a lot of explaining to do.
Good questions and good points. I wish I knew the answers.
Not terribly important but for the record, I just checked back a year ago and someone had found that the initials are really VKL Lee. V for Verna. Written quickly the V looks like U.
Earth to poster. WTF? Over.
4. Problem: If Obama's long form is the only one that has Lee's signature in 1961 from Kapiolani Hospital while the others from the same hospital have someone else's signature, then I think Obama has a serious problem and some explaining to do.
This is mirse. My theory above is wrong, because I just saw a Kapiolani birth certificate dated Aug. 23,1961 with V.R. Lee's signature.
I saw it in a 2011 article Corsi wrote at World Net Daily. The Lee signature on the certificate in the World Net Daily article is blanked out, but I saw the same certificate with the Lee signature visible at another site.
My point is this: Contrary to what I was thinking, there is indeed evidence that V. Lee also signed other certificates at Kapiolani hospital in Aug. 1961 just like she signed Obama's long form certificate in Aug. 1961.
So my theory is wrong. That is, I had theorized that if Lee signed ONLY Obama's certificate at Kapiolani Hospital in Aug. 1961 and no other ones, then it would prove that Obama's long form certificate was a fake.
But because I have found another legitimate Aug.1961 certificate on the internet from Kapiolani Hospital with Lee's signature on it just like it is on Obama's Aug. 1961 certificate, I must admit that my theory---that Lee could not have signed Obama's certificate in Aug. 1961--- has been proven wrong. Sorry.
Obamas false birth cert has been presented in court many times
could you show me two times it has been presented in court?
I am not saying these were cases won or lost, just that the birth certificate matter has been in courts a few times. It is not exactly new news.
yeah its ben an issue but where has it been presented in court?

Vehicle Code
DC Vehicle Code
If you think that the driver's manual is the only publication you are going to need to review before getting on the road, think again. The WASHINGTON DC Vehicle Code is just as important and offers a bit more into the traffic laws and legislations of the state than the handbook will offer. In fact, every single traffic and safety law imposed on drivers in the state is described in the legal jargon, so you get the most complete description of every law that affects you as you drive in the state – no matter what type of license you hold or the type of vehicle you operate.
If the state offers access to the Vehicle Code online, be sure to take advantage as you will get the download at home, which can then be printed and studied – especially if you are facing a traffic conviction or case, or even an administrative review.
- The DC Vehicle Code contains several different chapters, which contain various codes used by the state DMV in correlation with drivers.
- All vehicle and traffic laws are explained in legal terms.
- There is a full traffic ticket and violation description and explanation as well as descriptions of court process.
The Vehicle Code is so important to driving, providing you with all the information you should know before you think about putting the pedal to the metal.
Contents of the WASHINGTON DC Vehicle Code
As the most important DMV publication offered to DC drivers, there is a great deal of content to the publication, which includes several chapters with laws depicting:
- Trailer and Truck Loads (Oversize/Overweight)
- Permit requirements and regulations
- Traffic violations and consequences
- License suspension, revocation, cancellation
- Vehicle titling and registration
- Licensing
- Identification accepted by DMV
- Fees for licensing
- Ignition Interlocking Device
- Temporary vehicle documents
- Antique and classic vehicles
- Definitions of different types of vehicles
- Plate applications and expiration
- Odometer readings
- Title transfers
You should never confuse the Vehicle Code with the DC Driver's Handbook, as they are two different DMV publications and should be treated as such. The Vehicle Code is of much more use to you if you are approaching a traffic court appearance of if you have been summoned to a DMV administrative hearing.
If you need help understanding the Vehicle Code, don't hesitate to seek the advice of an DC traffic attorney, who can, if nothing else, decipher the codes for you.

One of the biggest changes on July 1 involves a requirement that hunters buy either a hunting license (formerly called a small game license) or a combination license before they can apply for or obtain a hunting permit.
For example, before a hunber can apply for or obtain a general season deer hunting permit, they must buy a hunting license or a combination license first.
There are two exceptions to this rule. If they have a 365-day small game or combination license that's still valid on July 1, they don't have to buy a new hunting or combination license until your license expires.
Lifetime license holders are also exempt from this requirement because their license is valid through their lifetime.
Beginning July 1, a hunting license will cost $26 for residents and $65 for nonresidents. A combination license will cost $30 for residents and $80 for nonresidents.
In addition to allowing hunters to apply for or obtain a hunting permit, a hunting license allows you to hunt small game. A combination license allows them to fish, hunt small game and apply for or obtain a hunting permit.
"In the past, paying $5 to try and draw a big game permit was the only financial contribution many people made to Utah's wildlife," says Jim Karpowitz, director of the DWR. "Now people will have to buy a hunting or combination license before they can apply for or obtain a hunting permit. We think this is a good way to spread the cost of wildlife management out among all sportsmen."
The fee changes will provide the DWR with the funding it needs to continue managing Utah's wildlife effectively.
"Not only will the fee changes allow us to meet our operating expenses, they'll allow us to help sportsmen and wildlife in some new ways," Karpowitz says.
The following are some of the ways the new funding will benefit sportsmen and wildlife:
The amount of private land open to sportsmen through the DWR's new walk-in access program will continue to grow.
More habitat work can be done to benefit wildlife across Utah.
Work will continue to control phragmities, a plant that's invaded many of the marshes along the eastern shore of the Great Salt Lake.
The state's wildlife and waterfowl management areas will be improved.

Although last week was not a good week for Emery High basketball, much is being learned about the two teams representing Emery High, parents and fans. These two teams are competitive and pretty talented and with some luck, they will both still be playing on the last day of state tournament play this season.
The Emery boys finally came home and played just a single game last week, a game against valley rival Carbon. In a hard-fought contest, Carbon came out on top in the end 58-53.
Emery, led by junior point guard Bailey Faimalo with 20 points and numerous assists and steals, took the early lead in the game but the Spartans could not hold off the Dinos in the second half. Emery won the first half 28-25 while Carbon won the second half 35-25.
Emery was incapable of stopping Carbon's Derek Young throughout the game, as he really was a force in the middle. Young finished with 23 points, 10 rebounds and a lot of intimidation in the middle.
Dakota Cisneros and Jordan Blanc each finished the game with 14 points for the Dinos as their quickness came into play time and time again. Also scoring for Carbon was Wyatt Hansen with 4 points, Bryce Blackburn with 2 points and Michael Pezcuh with 1 point.
Dawson Jensen was Emery's only other player in double figures as he finished with 15 points. Jensen also had a good inside game as he came down with close to double digit rebounds and Jensen moved well throughout the game without the ball and was hit with good passes by his teammates.
Curtis Mason and Dillon Wilstead each scored 7 points in the game and Spencer Labrum added 3 points and Gavin McDermott scored 1 point.
Neither team shot free throws well as Emery was 11 for 19 and Carbon was 12 for 19.
The Emery Lady Spartans went on the road twice last week and came home each time with a loss. On Tuesday, Emery traveled to Beaver and lost 52-49 in overtime to the defending 2-A state championship team who lost just one player from last season's team. On Thursday, Emery traveled to Parowan and lost 54-44.
Against Parowan, Emery got out of the gate slowly as they trailed 15-6 after the first quarter and then never really recovered. Emery only outscored Parowan in one quarter, the third 11-7,
Sophomore Ashlynn Allred led the team with 19 points and Allred also unofficially had 10 steals in the game. Senior Jeridi Price was the only other Spartan in double figures with 11 points. Shelby Allred scored 7 points, Bailey Rasmussen scored 4 points and Kelsie Cox scored 3 points.
At Beaver, Emery took the early lead of 15-5 in the first quarter only to let Beaver come right back in the second quarter to narrow the gap to 24-22 at the half. Beaver grabbed the lead in the third quarter as Emery was unable to find the basket and had trouble against the Beaver defense. Emery was outscored 12-4 in the period.
Emery won the final period to force a tie and send the game into overtime. Ashlynn Allred closed out regulation for Emery by scoring seven points in the final minute of the game to force overtime. Allred had a steal for a lay-up, a three-point shot and then hit two free throws to tie the score.
Ashlynn finished with 17 points, 6 steals and 3 assists with all three leading the team. Jeridi Price and Kelsie Cox each finished with 10 points while Bailey Rasmussen scored 7 points and Hannah Dyer scored 5 points. Bailey had 8 rebounds and 3 blocked shots to lead the team in those categories.
The Lady Spartans are on the road for three games this week. Emery will play at Carbon on Tuesday night, at Millard on Thursday night and at Delta on Friday night. The boy's team will play at Beaver on Wednesday night and then will be home on Friday night to play Union.

Harrington House has 29 bedrooms. Most are located in the main house, with others in the adjacent cottages.
Our classic bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation and an en-suite bathroom with bath or shower. They also have TV, hairdryer, and tea and coffee making facilities. Single rooms are available for no extra charge.

If you are travelling with your family, we have a selection of 3 and 4-bedded family bedrooms. These have all the facilities of our classic rooms plus full sized twin or double beds for adults and bunk beds or occasional beds for children.

All our Country Houses are tailored to the needs of walkers and outdoor enthusiasts and have excellent boot and drying rooms.
In the main house there is a small lounge, an attractive dining room and a cosy bar. The ballroom is a flexible space which can be used as a lounge, for dancing or for a variety of leisure activity holidays.
At the very top of the house is the fascinating observatory: an opportunity to try some star-gazing, or just enjoy the bird's-eye view.
Free WiFi is available in the public rooms. There is also a range of board games and books.
At the rear of the house there is an attractive walled garden with a large croquet lawn. This is a particularly attractive spot to relax after a day's walk or activity.
All holidays at our Country Houses are Full Board with all meals included, from dinner on arrival to breakfast on the day of your departure.
Start your day with our extensive breakfast. Choose from a wide selection on the cold buffet and/or a full cooked breakfast. Maybe enjoy a lighter option of fruit and yoghurt followed by scrambled egg, go for porridge followed by a full English breakfast, or select something in between.

Our house-based Leisure Activities include an in-house lunch (generally soup, sandwiches etc).
The relaxed dinner is a highlight of any stay at our Country Houses. With tables seating up to 10 and no seating plan, it offers a great opportunity to get to know your fellow guests. There is always a choice of dishes for every course, featuring good British cooking and often local specialities. A vegetarian option is always available.
All our Country Houses have a well-stocked bar serving local beers, wine and spirits.
Guided Walking: enjoy a glass of wine or local beer in the bar before a talk about the next day's walks. After dinner there will be an activity or entertainment which you will be welcome to join. These vary from week to week but could include a talk on local history from a visiting speaker, a team quiz, or a stroll around Bourton-on-the-Water. Alternatively if you prefer, feel free to just relax in our lounge or bar.
Leisure Activities: many of our Leisure Activities holidays continue into the evening with programmed sessions. Other holidays will have the evenings free, and you will be welcome to join in other social activities that may be happening in the house.
Self-Guided Walking: there may be evening social activities happening in the house during your holiday, and you will be most welcome to join in. However, not all self-guided holidays will have evening activities available – if these are important to you, please check before booking.

Ways to Help Your Student be Successful at College
The following suggestions will help your son or daughter make a successful transition to CMU.
- Don't call to tell them how much you miss them.
- Keep conversations positive and upbeat.
- Ask about campus activities, classes, extra-curricular involvement and new friends.
- Encourage your son or daughter to become involved in activities and events.
- Encourage your son or daughter to stay on campus over the weekend at the beginning of the semester. Often times, thats when students take the time to relax and connect with new people.
- Send photos, cookies, newspaper clippings, just any little thing from home. Everybody likes to get mail-even the heaviest emailers!
- A subscription to your hometown paper might help your student feel connected to home.
- Encourage your student to seek assistance from our campus services: tutoring, study skills, nurse practitioner, counselors, advisor, and residence hall staff among others.
- Remind your son or daughter that remaining in contact with friends at home through Facebook or regular visits is important, but so is making new friends and connections at college.
- Talk with your student about your plans for their room at home-don't surprise them. Assure them that they will always have somewhere to "come home" to.
- Be aware that the family dynamics will change with one sibling out of the house.
- If there has been a crisis at home or in your hometown, before you call your student with the news, give our professional staff a call. We will be better prepared to help your student deal with the crisis and determine whether to go home, and how.
- Refrain from discussing family financial issues with your son or daughter. Using money to "guilt them" into studying or making better grades rarely works.
- Always call our professional staff with any concerns (660-248-6223.) But remember, we deal with students when resolving an issue, not parents.
Encouraging Success
- Encourage your student to attend all classes.
- Major distractions for students come from Facebook, friends and the Internet. Talk with them about self-discipline in these areas.
- Encourage your student to participate in the Study Communities, or form their own study group. These mix social interaction with learning resulting in better retention.
- Ask about assignments and exams-"how are you preparing" and "how did you do." Don't assume that the comment, "I flunked that test" means he got an "F." It's a common expression that means "I didn't do as well as I wanted to."
- Time management is key to succeeding in college. Make sure your son or daughter has and planner (or digital device that has a calendar feature) and that he USES it.
- Remind your son or daughter that asking for help does not show weakness. It shows a level of maturity and a desire to succeed.
- Talking with professors is one of the best strategies. They are the best resource when learning a particular concept is a struggle.
- Talk with your son or daughter about future plans. Help them to "see" themselves in a career. What is his purpose in life?
For more information, feel free to contact the Office of Student Development at 660-248-6223.

An Empirical Study of Patent Litigation Timing: Could a Patent Term Reduction Decimate Trolls Without Harming Innovators?
Brian J. Love
Santa Clara University School of Law
August 30, 2011
University of Pennsylvania Law Review, Vol. 161, p. 1309, 2013
This article reports the findings of an empirical analysis of the relative ages of patents litigated by practicing and non-practicing patentees. Studying all infringement claims brought to enforce a sample of recently expired patents, I find considerable variance. Product-producing companies predominately enforce their patents soon after issuance and complete their enforcement activities well before their patent rights expire. NPEs, by contrast, begin asserting their patents relatively late in the patent term and frequently continue to litigate to the verge of expiration. This variance in litigation timing is so dramatic that all claims asserting the average product-company patent are resolved before the average NPE patent is asserted for the first time. Further, I find that NPEs are the dominant source of patent enforcement in the final few years of the patent term. NPEs, enforcers of just twenty percent of all studied patents, are responsible for more than two-thirds of all suits and over eighty percent of all infringement claims litigated in the final three years of the patent term. These findings cast serious doubt on the utility of the last few years of the patent term and suggest that Congress should, at a minimum, consider increasing the frequency and magnitude of maintenance fee payments in the latter half of the patent term.

â¢Abajo Mountains. Anglers report good fishing at Blanding number three and four reservoirs. Fish have been hitting spinners and spoons.
â¢Duck Fork Reservoir. Try a dark green size 10 scud on sink tip line. Tigers range from 12-16 inches. This water has special regulations: Cutthroat trout must be immediately released. Artificial flies and lures only.
â¢Mammoth Reservoir. An angler on BigFishTackle.com reported that fishing was exceptionally good with orange-colored flies. This water has special regulations. All cutthroat trout or trout with cutthroat markings must be immediately released.
â¢Joes Valley Reservoir. The reservoir is closed to fishing until the second Saturday in December. Paul Birdsey suggests fishing Lowry Water during the closure, where tigers up to 15-inches may be taken with a nightcrawler. Joes Valley Reservoir is a special regulation water. Please refer to the 2008 Fishing Guidebook for more information.
â¢LaSal Mountains. Darek Elverud, DWR Aquatics Biologist, fished Warner Lake on Oct. 10 and reported good fishing for rainbows ranging from 7-11 inches. Darek landed 10 fish in 40 minutes using fly tackle and a black wooly bugger. On Friday and Saturday, Nov. 7 and 8, Darek fished Ken's Lake. On Friday, Darek used a gold spinner to catch 16 trout, ranging from 9-15 inches, in one hour. On Saturday, Darek landed 20 rainbows, ranging from 8-14 inches, using a fly rod and olive wooly bugger.
â¢Lower Fish Creek. On Nov. 10, Tom Ogden fished from the confluence of the White River upstream to the first railroad bridge. In two hours, he caught three browns and six cutthroats, ranging from 12-14 inches. Tom used floating line and a size 12 beadhead Montana or size 14 beadhead hares ear. The water is shallow and requires a stealthy approach.
â¢Scofield Reservoir. Steve Regrutto, DWR Aquatics Technician, conducted a creel survey on Nov. 8. Steve reported that a marshmallow and worm combination or green PowerBait worked best. The shoreline opposite the Mountain View unit was very productive for bank anglers, who were catching 14 to 18 inch rainbows. Bank anglers also reported catching good numbers of tiger and cutthroat trout with dead minnows on the east shoreline. Last weekend, Tom Ogden fished from a tube on the east side of the island. He caught 10 trout in five hours. The cutthroats ranged from 16-20 inches and all of the rainbows were around 13-inches. Tom fished in 8-12 feet of water and used a size eight Canada blood leech with a gold rib or a size six beadhead black leech with a gold rib.

One Way in which Milwaukee's Criminal Justice System Contributes to Poverty
This is a TRUE story about how one person's run in with the Criminal Justice System in Milwaukee County has cost them their livelihood, health, housing and future.
This is NOT a story about violent or felony crime.
And this is a story that the average resident of the Northshore Suburbs of Milwaukee probably would not have happen to them.
This IS a story about those who live on the edge between poverty and a decent living, and who are susceptible to the grand standing Get Tough on Crime Political Realities.
An acquaintance of one of my co-workers (I'll call him Carl), who I have known for about 5 or 6 years had a good paying job (in the context of his socio-economic bracket that means between $10 and $15 per hour, and some benefits), that allowed him to live a comfortable but modest lifestyle --- an apartment costing about $600 a month, a very used car and a little spending money.
Carl lived in Milwaukee around 35th and Wisconsin, but like many residents of the inner city, his employment was in Port Washington (most "good" jobs are not in the city, and most of those in the suburbs are not available by public transit).
As luck would have it, Carl got pulled over by the Milwaukee police for a minor traffic violation, and it turned out that he still owed a fine (about $500) from a prior traffic violation, and there was a warrant for his arrest.
Yes, Carl was stupid! He should have paid his fine, and there would not have been any more to tell in this story.
But as Carl did NOT pay the prior fine, he was arrested, handcuffed, taken to the MPD local station, and then forwarded on to the Milwaukee County Jail.
Oh well, you may be thinking now --- NO BIG DEAL !! --- so he pays the $500 fine and gets out of jail. Except, that most folks in Carl's income bracket are living on the edge, and don't usually have a spare $500 on hand.
Okay, again No Big Deal --- Carl can just call a friend or two, and get the $500 he needs and gets a "get out of jail card" that way.
Or so one would think --- but one would be wrong !!!!!!
First of all, when Carl is arrested by the MPD, he is not allowed to make any phone calls from his cell phone, or from a phone at the police station. They tell him he can make a call when he gets to Milwaukee County Jail.
At the County lockup, they of course take away his cell phone, and he only has access to a pay phone ……… and can only make "collect" calls, or use a calling card purchased from the jail commissary.
Now maybe you know a lot of folks who will take a collect call from you. If you know their number off the top of your head --- and ONLY IF they have a LAND LINE!
You cannot make a collect call to a Cell Phone. And I hope it is no surprise to many of you, that most people in Carl's Socioeconomic Bracket do NOT have Land Lines --- almost all have cell phones.
You cannot use money to make a call from the Milwaukee County Jail, you must buy a Phone Card from the commissary.
This sounds fine in theory, except that you can only go to the commissary once a week!
If you are booked in on a Thursday, and your jail section day for the Commissary is on Wednesday, you have to wait a week before you can buy a phone card --- and then only if you have money in your Commissary Account.
For a little background on this whole deal, a large part of the reason that they have this system in the Milwaukee County Jail is that Sheriff David Clarke believes that there is not enough Punishment in the Criminal Justice System. and he likes to brag about how he saves the County money,
Now one of the ways that Sheriff Clarke likes to Save the County money, is to take it from those who can least afford it!
You see, the phone system at the County Jail is not a regular system --- it is actually a contract that Sheriff Clarke has with a private phone firm, that charges $5.55 for a 15 minute collect call.
In 2007, the Sheriff picked up a nice little sum of $1,129,200 off the rigged phone system.
In Carl's case, he was stupid to be there, as he had not paid his previous fine.
But the average prisoner in jail has NOT been convicted of anything --- many of them have not even had the chance yet to see a lawyer or judge.
Yet, because they are poor and cannot post bail, or pay some small fine, their families (those who may have a land line) get ripped off by accepting their calls.
Sheriff Clarke gets to punish both the inmate and the inmate's family, while making money off the backs of the poorest in our community.
Getting back to Carl's situation, Sheriff Clarke can chalk up an extra punishment.
Since Carl could not call anyone he knew with a land line --- and since his workplace will not take a phone call from a county jail --- Carl lost his job for not reporting in for three days in a row. (Carl had a perfect record at his job, never missed a day or was late)
It just so happened that Carl had only a few days left until his first year anniversary with the company, but since he was fired before that date, he lost his accrued vacation time, the raise he was due to receive, and all his health benefits.
In addition, Carl's company requires all new hires to sign a form that says that if they do not report in for three consecutive days in a roll --- they are considered to have resigned their position, and have not technically been fired, and are not eligible for unemployment benefits.
I am not a lawyer, but it just seems that it shouldn't be legal to sign away your rights to unemployment benefits, especially as it is a unilateral agreement that is non-negotiable for a new hire.
And yes, Carl did appeal his denial of unemployment benefits, but was denied them.
And yes, Carl will be without a place to live at the end of this month. One more person unemployed and homeless in Milwaukee.
Sheriff Clarke Tough on Crime & Punishment???
That depends upon your definition of Crime!!!

I have something that is bothering me and I hope someone can give me some wise advice on how to handle it.
I am married to a wonderful woman who is a Christian. She has a 11 year old daughter who has been my step daughter for a few years now. She is going into Jr. High and my wife did not want her to go to the public school (she heard bad things about it so I just went along) and wanted her to go to a private school. My wife told me great things about this school but when I heard it was a christian school I was concerned it might be anti-science. I talked to the principle and she assured me that it was not and I had nothing to worry about. I told her I grew up in secular/public schools and never was taught anything about evolution and I don't want that to happen to my kid. The principle told me she can't stand Christians that are anti-science. Well I was relieved and I gave my full support. Well the other day my kid comes home with her history book and I read through it. I barely could hold back my anger! It began with a global flood and also said that evolution is false and that everyone who believes in it only does so because they don't want to believe in the bible! Now I studied history in college so I think I know at least a little of what has happened around the world and I was so disgusted with how it treated topics on Buddhism, Chinese history, Crusades etc. On both Buddhism and Chinese history it would have a fairly ok presentation but at the end it always had to insult it and make it look stupid. I mean money is leaving the household to support this and brainwash my kid! So I went to the parent/teacher conference that all parents go to but this time I actually had something to say. After hearing the teacher praise this book she is using I could not hold back. I told her I had serious issues with it. I said I know this is a private school so you can teach anything you want and get away with it. She said the book is a little on the harsh side but said this is a creationist school. She also said there is a kid in class who accepts evolution and that my daughter even stood up against the evolutionist in class! I am so disturbed over this. I have no support from my wife and my kid doesnt know any better to understand what is happening. I told my wife that if she is not going to get a proper education on evolution then I will have to teach her myself. I am not trying to convert her I just want her to have the right information so later she can make up her own opinion. I got in touch with the public school science teacher that she could of had and he said he will help me anyway he can. Anybody else go through this? I am alone in the family on this matter hence the title of this discussion.

Thanks for your input VikingDon. I think what you said is pretty much all I can do.
Hello Beth,
"Does your wife believe in creationism too?"
I think she does (YEC) although sometimes after watching a debate (Ross vs. Hovind) she will comment that an old earth is not really against her religious understanding and acknowledges some Christians do in fact believe the earth is very old. I think she knows Hovind is a kind of sly conman so he is hard to trust.
"How does she feel that her daughter being taught this religion instead of science?"
Well she thinks it is science. Creationism is science to her. We had a big argument that night when I saw the daughter's history book. The daughter ended up crying and saying how they allow me to be an atheist all these years so why can't I allow her to have her beliefs. Then she said she has two fathers and both have completely different views and she does not know what to do. I told her that the difference between her step father and father is that he has an opinion that he absolutely wants you to also have no matter what. I just want you to have an accurate understanding of evolution (all science and history too) in order to better form an educated opinion later in her life. Either way she goes I will still be her step father and will still accept her. Clearly this book and teacher are only providing strawman arguments to make evolution look problematic. After I said this and made it clear, my wife understood me and then told her that not all Christians accpt what is in this book and all that he is saying is he wants you to have knowledge about it and not simply believe it (unlike her father who wants her to simply believe Creationism). The daughter seemed to understand what I was saying but I don't know if I can compete with everyday in class being subjected to that stuff.
My step daughter has surprised me a couple times. I remember one time her and I were at the store and she saw something on the shelf and quickly grabbed it and threw it away. I asked her what it was and she said it was one of those Chrisitan tracts someone left which talked about Hell etc. She expressed her dislike for threats to unbelievers like me.
Here is the book if anyone is curious.
I would suggest that the school book beginning with the flood, completely ignoring Thomas Jefferson's contributions, &c. is the same history text that was approved, over a minority objection, by the Texas Board of Education. It is an object lesson in why State Rights arguments mostly fail, especially as applied to those departments of the federal government that the Tea Party-evangelical influenced Republican pols keep trashing and fighting to eliminate. (Remember that jackass, Gov. Perry, who couldn't remember which three departments he would, as president, eliminate? Education was one of them.) When education is returned to the States, the dumb States will do what was done to your child's history text, only worse in places like Alabama, Texas, and all the South. Meanwhile, other nations, which do NOT teach that Adam and Eve ate dinosaur meat, will outstrip us in science and, thus, in commerce. We will slide into Third World status. The dumbing down of America continues apace. You will need to work overtime to supply a parallel education. You might want to buy some history texts from the 60s and 70s. Have your child read Howard Zinn while you're at it. Do all that you must to keep your child from turning into the No Nothings our system appears dedicated to producing. Remember, the Texas GOP platform included a provision for eliminating "critical thinking" from American curricula. They've made a start as it is.
That which you went through with the school official is called "lying for Jesus." If you can't convince them with theology, lie.
You might note to your wife that medicine, genetics, biology, and a whole host of unrelated sciences all point to evolution by natural selection as the best model we have for describing the ascent of life, and if the stories in the Bible are the truth, they do not need to be defended with lies.
You might also note that while denigrating science, no self-respecting fundamentalist Christian would for a moment go without electricity, automobiles, medicine, flush toilets, or a whole host of other things brought about by the scientific method. They would not balance their chequebooks on faith. Why, on the one subject of evolution, on which Jesus did not give an opinion, are so many Christians convinced they know the Mind of God? That would seem to be the height of arrogance to any Christian who truly believes in the story of the Gospels.
The truth, if religion has it, never needs to be defended by a lie. Lying is the defence of something patently untrue.
The religion and its school are fundamentally corrupt and unholy if a school administrator would lie to get your child in the school. If so, what else would the school lie to you (or your wife) about?
The best possible thing you can do is tell your daughter that you support her decision. If she ever wants to learn about evolution you are there to help but you understand if creationism is important to her. This issue is complicated by a divorce and if your wife is the custodial parent she has a desperate desire to connect with her father. This applies to parenting generally but specifically to step kids and also religious/skeptical issues. You have to avoid putting pressure on her. Its quite likely that she will change her mind once she gets to college, if she decides to go.
Specifically you should tell her:
"I think that you have the right to believe in what you want and I don't want to cause you problems with your parents but, if you ever change your mind I will always be here to explain or discuss what I believe with regards to science."
You can obviously change some words around and add things like telling her you love her and such things that parents say.
Any attempt to corner her and try to impose your view is going to go terribly for you and will upset your wife. I am not sure why you thought it was a good idea to marry a creationist, especially if you planned to have your own children. They take this shit seriously. Dead seriously. Creationists commit violence to enforce their beliefs on children. Not that your wife is necessarily like that, but she did wear a tin foil hat with regards to public school.
And you really should have done your homework about lying for Jesus if you were going to be involved with child rearing and creationists. As I said they take this shit seriously.
It is very very difficult for a parent to offset what a child learns every day in school, especially when the other parent is not on the same side. Children naturally want to fit in with their environment and often they view parents as "out of it." If it is at all possible, you ought to place your child in a better educational environment otherwise you may find yourself isolated in your own family.
I know you're not trying to convert her, you're trying to de-convert her. This is tragic man. I can't believe that stuff was in a text book. Yikes.

Offering more bite than a great white, this string has the potential to turn even the flattest of hitters into spin monsters. We found impressive ball pocketing and excellent control with this string. While the string is very spin friendly, we also found a high level of depth control on flat shots. A solid choice for those seeking the control of a poly type string, yet with some added comfort thrown in.

Sponsored by 2013 Social Media 300
One of the most frequently mentioned topics the 2010 Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition in Chicago was social media.
One of the most frequently mentioned topics the 2010 Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition in Chicago was social media. Those words were on the tongues of almost every speaker, from the pre-conference workshops on Tuesday (Ravelry.com, a social site for knitters, drives 6% of traffic to Yarn.com, Steve Elkins, president of Yarn.com's parent WEBS, told Tuesday's Beginning Search Marketing Workshop) to Friday, when the conference concluded with a whole day devoted to understanding social initiatives ("Mingle around online social media to find out where your market is," Michael Jansma, president of online retailer GEMaffair.com, advised attendees).
Anyone attending any of the many sessions that dealt with social media went home with lots of ideas—and with the idea that there is no silver bullet. Each retailer has to harness social media to its own particular circumstances.
A couple of great examples came out of the Facebook session during the post-conference Social Media and E-Retailing workshop. David Pohl, head of e-commerce for Equator Estate Coffees & Teas, focused on small-bore initiatives. He reported that when the company gets small lots of coffee in stock, it sells them on Facebook. Why? It's too much trouble to put small quantities on the web site. And those offerings have the advantage of tying fans closer to the brand. "Treat your fans special," Pohl advised.
Pohl's co-presenter David Saville of Hallmark Cards reported that Hallmark is planning to spread its presence across Facebook. Rather than offering only a few things on Facebook, Hallmark is getting ready to build Facebook stores for the many different brands, such as Disney, that Hallmark licenses for cards. That could result in Hallmark's operating dozens of Facebook presences.
Whatever the approach, social media is early enough in its life and fluid enough to allow online retailers latitude in experimentation. The real challenge is to find the return on such investments. Notwithstanding ForeSee Results' new service (announced at IRCE) to track how consumers use social media and whether it prompts them to buy, many speakers urged e-retailers not to be concerned about return, arguing that social media is still a relatively small investment. "Don't try to calculate ROI on social media programs, just do them," Ken Cassar, vice president of industry insights at Nielsen Online, told Friday's Social Media workshop.
Said GEMaffair's Janmsa: "It's a challenge for us right now to monetize Facebook."
Profitable or not, the consensus among speakers is that successful retailers will be where consumers are—and that's on social sites these days. In fact, Jansma cited research showing that social sites are now the No. 1 use of the Internet—displacing porn for the first time since the rise of the Internet. Having a social presence, said Nielsen's Cassar, "is a minimum customer expectation."

SHUTDOWN: Districts closely watching D.C.
Local school district officials are taking a wait-and-see approach to how a federal government shutdown would affect their operations.
"Our concern would be the potential interruption of funds being transferred from the federal to state level that are designated for Pueblo City Schools," said district spokesman Scott Jones.
D60 and Pueblo County District 70 rely on federal money to support programs such as Title I, special education, English Language Learners and reimbursement of the school lunch program.
Exactly what a shutdown would do to school programs is unknown at this time without knowing how long the gridlock could continue, according to district leaders.
"We don't really know what effect this will have on our federal funding," said District 70 Superintendent Ed Smith.

Ford EcoBoost Demand Booms as Overall EV Sales Soften
Shane McGlaun
May 2, 2012 11:24 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Consumers choose fuel efficient normal vehicles over EVs and hybrids
Despite the fact that gas prices are at record levels in many parts of the country, the sales of electric vehicles are still falling. Many consumers are staying away from electric vehicles due to the relatively high cost of entry and range anxiety (in the case of the Nissan Leaf).
Two of the most popular electric vehicles in the country are the
Chevrolet Volt
and the Nissan Leaf. The Volt isn't a traditional electric vehicle; rather it's an extended range hybrid that runs on battery power and features a generator to recharge the battery for extended driving. GM says that in the month of April 2012 1,462 Volts were sold, which represents 200% increase from April of 2011 when 493 were sold.
April was the second best month for retail sales of Volt cars since it launched in 2010. Interestingly, the good month for Volt sales comes not long after
GM suspended production
of the car due to soft demand.
Chevrolet Volt sales are up.
While sales of the Volt were up, the Nissan Leaf saw sales fall 35% with only 370 units sold. Nissan hopes to sell 20,000 Leaf EVs this year, and will have to sell over 2200 monthly to meet that goal.
While electric vehicle sales are down, Ford has a booming business with its fuel-efficient
EcoBoost-powered vehicles
. Ford has announced that it has started a third shift at the Cleveland plant that builds EcoBoost engines.
The addition of a third shift to the engine building plant will add 250 jobs. However, most of those positions will be filled by employees that are transferring from a different Cleveland engine plant that will be placed on idle later this week.
The 2013 Ford Fusion will offer two EcoBoost four-cylinder engine options.
"Our engine plant in Cleveland is the first and only facility in North America to produce EcoBoost engines, and we are tripling production capacity to meet customers' growing needs for fuel-efficient engines," said Ford Americas President Mark Fields during a celebration with employees at the plant Tuesday. "EcoBoost engines are a key part of our plan to give customers the power of choice — from EcoBoost-powered vehicles and hybrids, to plug-in hybrids and full electrics."
Ford's EcoBoost engine has found its way the under the hood of everything from
full-sized trucks
small economy vehicles
. EcoBoost engines use a smaller displacement engine with turbochargers for increased power and fuel efficiency.

If you asked me to choose my "favorite" station of the Cross, it would be the 6th station: Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus. For many years I've been drawn to this station because I see in this scene what actually happens to us when we meditate on the life of Jesus.
The name Veronica means "true image." Tradition tells us that this faithful woman approached Christ in compassion and tenderly wiped the blood, sweat, and tears from His face as He carried the Cross to Calvary. In return, He left the image of his beautiful face upon her veil.
Veronica's veil is symbolic of our interior life. As we meditate on the mysteries of Christ's life, His image is perfected in us. The more we contemplate Jesus, the more we become like Him.
During this Holy Week, may each of us commit to spending extra time with Jesus. If we do, He will give to us what He gave to Veronica: the stain of sin will be washed away, and His image will be perfected in us.
A blessed Holy Week to each of you!

Famously conservative minded radio host Glenn Beck may have been finding it hard to come up with controversial topics to talk about, which is evident by his bizarre attack on My Chemical Romance's single 'Sing.' Much to the astonishment of MCR fans and even Beck's listeners, he recently labeled 'Sing' as 'propaganda.'
In the Thursday's episode of his self-titled Fox News program, Beck kicked of the proceedings by first blasting the contents of the musical TV show 'Glee,' which in his own words, he watched in "stunned horror and admiring awe." He then swiftly switched focus and started to explain his analysis of "Sing's" lyrical contents. Beck, who is notable for his longs tirades on almost every subject that comes to his mind, then recited the song's lyrics with fervent fright.
He warned, "Pay attention to the lyrics. This is propaganda … it's an anthem saying 'Join us.' How can you and I possibly win against that?"
