wedding choice
"I bought these for a formal wedding to wear with pilazzo pants and bling top and jacket and the colors and shine fit the bill perfectly. The silver is shiny and the black is VERY shiny, much like patent leather. There is a third, neutral, color on the flat part of the shoe that shoes just enough to make them fun. I usually wear an 8 and these are a bit long, but not enough to bother returning them. They are not SUPER comfy, but they are flats, so I am sure I will make it through the night, with a reasonable amount of dancing involved."

Awesome shoes
"The reviews on this shoe were almost to good to be true but I'm here to say they are the most comfortable shoe I have, and no need to break them in. The strap is very stretchy and soft and I bought the off white/ gold and it looks so cute with skirts and pants. I would definitely recommend this shoe and I'm looking to buy another pair in another color."

The message to criminals is clear if you commit a crime in Emery County, you're going to get caught or so it would seem. A Joseph Coleman Hodge commited a burglary in Green River in 1994 at the Central Supply. Sheriff LaMar Guymon and Capt. Kyle Ekker traveled to Fallon, Nev. where the subject had been stopped on an attempt to locate. He was interviewed where he confessed to the burglary and was brought back to Emery County where he went to court and was sent to the Utah State Prison. Upon release from prison he began his life of burglary again and was currently wanted in three states when he passed through the county again on a burglary spree.
On Sept. 22 at approximately midnight, Hodge broke into the Two Brothers Communication business in Price. Upon leaving that building he traveled south on SR-10 into Castle Dale where he kicked in the back door at 410 East Main, Dr. Huntington's dentist office. He took stamps, coins and Advil from that office. He continued on SR-10 where he stopped in Emery at Randy's Service. He backed his stolen truck into the garage door and bent it in to gain access to the building. A citizen, Pam Adams of Emery heard strange noises coming from Randy's so she called into the Sheriff's Office. Deputy Mike Jorgensen responded and a short time later he pulled up at Randy's where he noticed the white pick-up pulled up in front of the large bay door. He observed the subject in the business and called for back-up. Deputy John Spinney arrived and Sgt. Jeff Thomas and Sgt. Gayle Jensen. Det. John Barnett and Det. Sgt. Robert Blackburn arrived to process the scene.
The subject upon seeing the deputies stacked cement bags against the wall and accessed the roof. He was ordered off the roof at gunpoint and the subject complied and came off the roof where he was taken into custody. The subject gave an alias name.
He was positively identified when his fingerprints were entered into the system. He was booked on two counts of burglary and criminal mischief. The subject has an extensive criminal history and three outstanding warrants in other states. He has been on the run for many years. At his court appearance he pled guilty and was sentenced to one-15 on one count, and three counts of zero-five. The defendant is originally from Jacksonville, Fla. He has been transported to the Utah State Prison.

Gifts are accepted only when they add strength to the collection and impose no significant limitations on housing, handling, or disposition of duplicate or damaged items.
No special collections will be established except in accordance with established collection design and development policy. Unless they are given "on loan," materials become the property of the library. Materials that would require a continuing obligation for collection may be rejected.
All materials will be vetted for their suitability, which will includes concerns such as their age, their physical condition, and their permanent value. Materials that contain strongly-biased, distorting, or misleading statements, or extensive commercial messages may be rejected. Consumable materials, including workbooks, laboratory manuals, and standardized tests will be carefully vetted. Incomplete runs of periodicals will not be accepted unless the acquisition would complete an existing run.
If there is any question about accepting a gift, the final determination rests with the director of the library. The Alumnae Library reserves the right to refuse materials and/or dispose of any items after their acceptance if they become outdated or discredited. This will be done according to the stated Alumnae Library policy for disposition of materials.

A movie that lampoons celebrity ego-driven craziness casts a light as much on the actors playing the roles as it does the characters themselves (Tropic Thunder, anyone?). But Get Him To The Greek, based on two of the characters Jason Segel developed in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, seems to hit especially close to home: Russell Brand basically is the wonky Aldous Snow, right down to the former drug habit and tendency towards outlandish outfits. And considering that half the cast plays themselves in the film, the premiere of the movie was basically like watching a shortened version of the plot. Except with Katy Perry there to keep Russell's eye from wandering too far.

Stretches Out
"Love the funky grandma appeal. Exchanged for smaller size, which fit, but has since stretched out. My heel slips & my toes end up scrunching to keep the shoe on. Should've ordered a whole size smaller to accommodate the leather stretching around the front. This one is a difficult online buy, will prob end up getting inserts. Still love the eclectic nurse look."

The Emery County Commissioners met in a special commission meeting on Oct. 31. The special meeting was called because they won't meet for their next meeting until Nov. 21 at 9 a.m. due to election day on Nov. 7.
Every four years the justice courts must be recertified. The Castle Dale and the Green River Justice Courts were up for this recertification. County Attorney David Blackwell has prepared the necessary paperwork for this recertification. The commission approved the resolution for the recertification. Commissioner Drew Sitterud noted that Castle Dale is a class two and Green River is a class three court.
Commissioner Ira Hatch said a public hearing must be set to gain input on the short term and long term project list for the Permanent Community Impact Funds Board. The project list contains items from both the cities and the county. The public hearing will be at the next commission meeting on Nov. 21 at 10 a.m. Also at the Nov. 21 meeting a discussion will be held on some roads being considered for abandonment. Letters have been sent to those involved with these roads.
The commissioners discussed some of the projects on the list. They also want additional projects added to the list including the Veteran's Memorial, building at the gun range, airport project, additional portable bleachers, kitchen on the Museum of the San Rafael and other items.
Commissioner Hatch said they will prioritize this short and long term project list with the information gathered at the public hearing.
The commission approved the cooperative agreement/design engineering reimbursement between Emery County and UDOT on Phases V and VI of the South Moore Road project. Phases V and VI will include the paving of phases I through IV.
Commissioner Hatch said, "The final inspection on Phase II of the Moore road project was held on Oct. 30 and everything was OK with just a few minor details to be taken care of. The design and engineering phase of III and IV is moving ahead now. This project was made possible with the transportation bill and Rep. Jim Matheson. Within two-three years an oiled road will connect I-70 and SR-10."
The commission approved an interlocal agreement between Emery County and Emery County Special Service District number one to provide funding for local authority match on Phases V and VI of the South Moore Project. Commissioner Hatch explained this agreement gives the district authority to act for the county on the Moore road project.
Commissioner Gary Kofford opened bids for the collection of scrap metal at the landfill. Ronald Barney was awarded the bid at $37 per ton. Commissioner Hatch said the landfill separates scrap and stockpiles it and this brings a little revenue back into the landfill.
One of the old sheriff's vehicles has been donated to the Green River Medical Center.
In personnel action, Mary Huntington, personnel director asked for the approval of Jolene Dalton as the new assistant librarian at the Green River library.
Eric Nelson was also approved for a step increase due to his successful completion of his six month orientation.

Boeing has contributed $150,000 towards the creation of an interactive website to comprehensively promote local Music events and venues in Chicago.
Initially focused on Jazz music with a game plan in the works to expand and cover other genres, a new website collaboration project with Boeing and local music locations in Chicago plan to provide visitors a comprehensive website to help visitors find out who's playing, where and when.
"There's a need for an aggregator," says Tracie Hall, Chicago Community Investor at Boeing. "A place that not only shows what's playing where, but that brings the music community together – owners and operators and audiences, (where people can) look at the information, talk together, build this online community. The city of Austin [Texas] is able to portray itself as Music City, just by saying, 'We're the musical capital of the world.' [However] in Chicago on any night, we have the same or more than Austin."

- Abstain from sex or limit the number of sexual partners.
- Use a latex condom every time you have sex.
- Avoid sexual partners who are HIV-infected or injection drug users.
- Do not share needles for drug injection.
- Talk to your partner about any sexually transmitted infections you or your partner have.
- Let your doctor know if you share needles or have sex with someone who has HIV. Your doctor may want to start medication to help prevent an HIV infection from developing.
- Go to regular check-ups and get tested for HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) as advised.
- Talk to your doctor about the value of pre- or post-exposure prophylaxis.
- Wear appropriate gloves and facial masks during all procedures.

- Abstain from sex.
If you do have sex, use a latex condom every time. This includes any sexual act that results in the exchange of bodily fluids. Options to consider:
- A female condom may be used. Male condoms are better studied for HIV prevention, but a female condom is better than no protection.
- Use a dental dam (small square of latex) or similar barrier during oral sex.
- If you are prescribed medications, be sure that you are taking them. Work with your doctor to monitor your viral load. Medications and low viral loads may decrease the chance of passing the infection.
- Inform former or potential sexual partners about the infection. Encourage them to get tested.
- Do not donate blood or organs.
- If you are not planning a pregnancy, ask your doctor about contraception.
- If you do wish to become pregnant, talk to your doctor. There are ways to lower your baby's risk of being born infected with HIV.
- If you have a baby, do not breastfeed.

In recent years, tickets for sporting events from the late 1800s through the 1970s have begun to emerge as one of the hottest new collectibles – so hot that PSA began grading them. As of now, it's hard to ascertain just what is out there as far as tickets go, and this is why PSA's Population Report will play a vital role in the determination of rarity and value with these tickets.
Conventional wisdom says that tickets, especially those for events prior to the 1970s, may be the next big thing in sports collecting, which has motivated sports fans from coast-to-coast to start digging out those boxes holding all of the tickets and stubs they have saved over the years.
Famed sports memorabilia and card collector, Kirk Harris, has been at the forefront of the emerging fascination and interest in sporting event tickets, and he believes that along with vintage baseball and World Series tickets, the greatest interest will be with Super Bowl tickets.
"I'm a true collector," Harris revealed. "I collect coins, stamps, sports memorabilia – a huge sports card collection and I have one of the world's finest collections of United States Army parachutes."
As a lifelong collector, Harris has of course kept the tickets to every sporting event he has ever attended. "I've always loved tickets," he said. "And Super Bowl tickets are amongst some of the most desirable tickets with collectors. To me, I see the Super Bowl as the greatest single day event in the world. In every other sport you have a series that determines a championship, but with the Super Bowl it's just one game."
Harris says that he believes the desire for Super Bowl tickets is high for many different reasons. "They are an actual piece of history from a specific game," he opined. "The tickets are beautiful works of art, and every Super Bowl has had its unique theme and logo."
With Super Bowl tickets, rarity is far more important than the game itself when it comes to desirability, and according to Harris, tickets from Super Bowls I through VIII are the rarest. "PSA has classified Super Bowls I through XIV as the Vintage Series," Harris explained. "Then from XV to today is considered the Modern Series. Tickets from Super Bowl II and VIII are the hardest to find. And tickets from Super Bowl XII are also very rare."
Harris points out that full Super Bowl ticket sets in high grades have not yet surfaced. "We have seen a few full Super Bowl sets sell at auction," said Harris. "But they have all been in lower grades. Sets that include stubs instead of full tickets are out there, but as far as full ticket sets in high grades – well that's where PSA's Registry will prove to be very interesting. Over the next five to 10 years, we will see a lot of tickets surface and for the first time, we will get an idea of what really exists."
As with cards, the grading of a ticket is based on printing defects, color, centering and overall condition. "Super Bowl tickets from the Modern Series do not have the printing problems that the early tickets had", Harris explained. "The older tickets, surprisingly had cuts that were done pretty well but print problems are a factor, especially with tickets from Super Bowl XIII."
Harris says that while stubs have value, they will never have the desirability of a full ticket. "I believe that 90 % of the Super Bowl Vintage Series that are out there are stubs," said Harris. "Now, will some full tickets show up? Maybe. And when they do, I think we will see the Vintage Series greatly increase in value as we learn just how few exist, while conversely, more modern Super Bowl tickets may actually decrease in value because I believe they were held on to and have big populations. I think we will see the ticket market expand in the next few years, both with Super Bowl tickets and with tickets from all sporting events. It's going to be fascinating to see what happens."
As Jacksonville, FL gears up for Super Bowl XXXIX at AllTel Stadium on February 6, 2005, we thought you might like to take a look back at the last 39 Super Bowls and some of the prized tickets that gave entrance to those games that are now coveted collectibles.
Super Bowl I
Green Bay 35, Kansas City 10
Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles, CA
January 15, 1967
MVP: Bart Starr, QB, Green Bay
The Green Bay Packers inaugurated the Super Bowl (although it was not officially called such) by defeating the AFL Champion Chiefs. The passing of Bart Starr, the receiving of Max McGee, and a key interception by all-pro safety Willie Wood were the key factors in The Pack's win. Starr completed 16 of 23 passes for 250 yards and two touchdowns.
Super Bowl II
Green Bay 33, Oakland 14
Orange Bowl, Miami, FL, January 14, 1968
MVP: Bart Starr, QB, Green Bay
After winning their third consecutive NFL Championship, The Pack won the Championship title for the second straight year. Bart Starr completed 13 of 24 passes for 202 yards and one touchdown. The game would be Vince Lombardi's swan song, ending nine years of head coaching at Green Bay, in which he won six Western Conference Championships, five NFL Championships, and two World Championship games that would come to be known as The Super Bowl.
Super Bowl III
New York 16, Baltimore 7
Orange Bowl, Miami, FL, January 12, 1969
MVP: Joe Namath, QB, New York
Broadway Joe Namath "guaranteed" victory and then went out and delivered, leading the AFL to its first Super Bowl win over a team that had lost only one game all season. Namath completed 17 of 28 passes for 206 yards. Joe Willie's childhood hero, Johnny Unitas, who had missed most of the season, came off the bench and led Baltimore to its only touchdown late in the fourth quarter.
Super Bowl IV
Kansas City 23, Minnesota 7
Tulane Stadium, New Orleans, LA
January 11, 1970
MVP: Len Dawson, QB, Kansas City
The Chiefs built a commanding 16-0 halftime lead behind Len Dawson's quarterbacking and the team's solid defense that totally shut down the Vikings' rushing game. Dawson completed 12 of 17 passes and connected with Otis Taylor for a 46-yard touchdown in the second half.
Super Bowl V
Baltimore 16, Dallas 13
Orange Bowl, Miami, FL, January 17, 1971
MVP: Chuck Howley, LB, Dallas
A 32-yard field goal by rookie kicker Jim O'Brien sealed the deal for the Colts, with just five seconds left in Super Bowl V. Chuck Howley, who picked off two passes, became the first defensive player and the first player from a losing team to be named MVP.
Super Bowl VI
Dallas 24, Miami 3
Tulane Stadium, New Orleans, LA
January 16, 1972
MVP: Roger Staubach, QB, Dallas
While Dallas rushed for a record 252 yards, their defense held Miami to a low of 185 yards while not allowing a touchdown for the first time in Super Bowl history. Staubach completed 12 of 19 passes for 119 yards and two touchdowns.
Super Bowl VII
Miami 14, Washington 7
Memorial Coliseum, Los Angeles, CA
January 14, 1973
MVP: Jake Scott, Safety, Miami
The Fins played perfect football in the first half, as their defense allowed The Skins to cross into their territory only once. Washington's only score came late in the fourth quarter and resulted from a misplayed field-goal attempt and an infamous pass attempt by Garo Yepremian. The Redskins Mike Bass snagged the ball out of the air and took it back 49 yards for TD.
Super Bowl VIII
Miami 24, Minnesota 7
Rice Stadium, Houston, TX, January 13, 1974
MVP: Larry Csonka, RB, Miami
The Dolphins defense limited the Vikings to only seven plays in the first quarter. The Vikings looked like a bunch of high schoolers as Csonka rushed 33 times for a Super Bowl record 145 yards, and Griese completed 6 of 7 passes for 73 yards.
Super Bowl IX
Pittsburgh 16, Minnesota 6
Tulane Stadium, New Orleans, LA
January 12, 1975
MVP: Franco Harris, RB, Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh limped through the first half. The only score was produced by the Steelers defense. Vikings quarterback Fran Tarkenton was caught in the end zone for a safety. The Steelers then showed up in the second half, as Franco Harris ended up rushing 158 yards on 34 carries.
Super Bowl X
Pittsburgh 21, Dallas 17
Orange Bowl, Miami, FL, January 18, 1976
MVP: Lynn Swann, WR, Pittsburgh

The complainant obtained a license plate from the Jetta and a records check by the Communications Center revealed that the vehicle was listed as stolen, from the Weber County area, on the N.C.I.C. database. The witness tried to follow the vehicle but discontinued his efforts on South River Road in the industrial area due to the speeds reached by the Jetta.
An officer in the area of I-15 and the Southern Parkway located the Jetta and attempted a traffic stop. Once it was clear that the driver was going to evade the officer, the officer discontinued his attempt to stop the vehicle. An officer parked at Exit 6 on I-15, saw the VW approaching the exit and it appeared that the driver had planned on leaving I-15 at Exit 6 but changed his course when he noticed the officer.
The driver of the VW continued North on I-15 reaching the area of mile post 7. The driver decided to turn around and began driving South on the Northbound shoulder of I-15. The VW was travelling on the dirt portion of the shoulder at a high rate of speed when an officer in the area of Exit 6 observed the VW move further off of the shoulder, strike some uneven terrain, and crash into the fence between the freeway and Sunland Drive. The driver of the VW fled the vehicle on foot.
Officers in the area set up a perimeter and received assistance from a variety of citizens who had witnessed the suspect running through the area on foot; including a hot air balloon pilot who was floating above the area of the incident.
Officers were able to catch up with the suspect in the parking lot of the BLM Office on Riverside Dr. The suspect saw them approaching and ran on foot. He ran behind a dumpster at the BLM Offices where he was taken into custody.
The suspect was transported to DRMC by ambulance due to the fact he had been involved in a traffic collision and he was barefoot while he was running from officers. He sustained some injuries to the bottoms of his feet. As of this time we have not verified the identity of the driver.
Additional follow up investigation is currently underway to determine the driver's identity, the status of the vehicle, the suspect's association with the vehicle, and what additional charges will be filed in relation to his possession of it.
Currently the suspect is being checked by medical personnel prior to being booked into jail. Specific charges to be filed will include evading and failure to stop at the command of an officer. Additional charges may be added pending the results of the follow up investigation.

After months of lobbying, speculation and debate, the Massachusetts Senate voted last week to approve a bill that authorizes a casino in Western Massachusetts and two others in different parts of the state. Now a joint legislative committee will have to draft a final bill to send to the governor, but towns are already competing and evaluating the possibilities for a resort-style casino.
Mohegan Sun in Connecticut is proposing a casino in Palmer, Massachusetts and a group called Paper City Development is eyeing one in Holyoke. Penn National Gaming of Pennsylvania says it's considering expanding to Springfield or surrounding areas. But voter approval in any town will be required.
"The state's going to mandate what we're going to have to do. They're going to need a certified vote of the town, a majority vote in favor of the casino coming to town."
Andrew Golas is an administrator in the Palmer town office. He says the town council has a clear stance on a casino, but town officials are waiting to gauge interest from residents.
"The council is hoping that it goes in favor of the casino. They've been huge advocates for it. As far as the manager's office, we've been kind of playing it by ear and more playing it off of what the voters decide. If voters come up with more than 50 percent then we'll pursue it wholeheartedly. At the end of the day if voters come back and say no this isn't something that we want, we're not going to try to push it on the town."
The differences in the House and Senate versions of the casino bill include variations over who would be allowed to approve a casino at the local level. The Senate version approved an amendment that calls for a vote by all residents of Springfield if a casino is proposed for that city. But in Boston and Worcester, votes would be held only in the wards where casinos would be located, unless their city councils decide they want city-wide votes. A compromise bill is expected to reach Governor Deval Patrick's desk around Thanksgiving.

An Extraordinarily Silly Zack Kassian Photo Gallery
Thomas Drance
March 04 2013 06:32PM
Zack Kassian reacts to the news that another blogger put together a photogallery of funny photos of him.
All photos in this post from Grainne's Sealcat tumblr.
I'm not sure what it is about Zack Kassian that makes him so ceaslessly photogenic, but it's undeniable.
Maybe it's his ability to grow multiple different types of hilarious facial hair? Or maybe it's that his wild hair and receding hairline makes him look like a cross between a lumberjack and a wildabeast? Or perhaps it's that gap-toothed grin that just screams "1970's hockey"? Whether or not it's one of those factors, or the unique combination of all three, cameras just love Zack Kassian and I'm far from the first person to notice it. Already in this young hockey season multiple hockey bloggers like Rob the Hockey Guy and Justin Bourne have built Zack Kassian photo gallerys, and both posts owned.
Maybe it's overkill for me to get into it as well, but I found a whole whack of hilarious Kassian photos that I hadn't seen before on Tumblr today, and I figured I had to put them into a post. Read on past the jump for more.
Zack Kassian as Rob Roy
I mean, tell me you don't see the resemblance?
Eddie Lack with a mustache (bottom left), meanwhile, resembles a much different type of historical figure.
On any given day, Zack Kassian is basically a long braid away from resembling a rider from one of George R.R. Martin's Dothraki hordes (and Dothraki are often referred to in the Game of Thrones text as "horse lords").
Anyway, here are a couple of guys wearing a horse costume:
Guess who the head of the horse is?
Perhaps you can from their Seth Rogen fro...
Yep. Zack Kassian is a horse... Of course, of course:
Valentines Day
So Zack, what are your Valentines Day plans?
No one tell Cam Charron, he'll be sooo jealous!
Zack Kassian with all of his Teeth
Uhhh what?
Does not compute.
Zack Kassian the bandit
He's a desperado, underneath your window... (Yes I did just work a Ricky Martin reference into a Zack Kassian photogallery.)
Howdy Partner
Kassian is a versatile theme party goer. He can do evil cowboy and he can do Woody-type Sheriff cowboy. And as we already know, he can also be the horse.
I don't even...
Kassian, the best.
And that's it. I wonder how Kassian would react if he saw this...
Probably about right...
Check out Grainne's tumblr because it owns.
wow, that photo with all his teeth is too weird. It's amazing how that one missing tooth takes him from looking like a nice normal guy, to looking like a guy that would pop up from the backseat of your car when you thought you were alone.
March 04 2013, 07:44PM
I see a bright future for this guy. A stand up comedy Duo with Eddie Lack."course he could always play an enforcer, if a good "Hockey" movie comes along. He's already understudying the Part.
That picture in the Millionaires jersey. Where have we seen that before?
Huh, picture didn't display.
Is it just me, or is there something with Cam Barker's face, the way he's looking off into the sunset...one of those times you can't stop looking at it for whatever reason.

Student Spotlight
Expected Graduation: May 2015 | Undergraduate Institution/Major: Wayne State University / Political Science | Division: Day
Why did you choose UDM Law?
I chose UDM Law because it is in the Heart of Detroit and the legal community.
What do you like best about attending law school in Detroit?
Detroit is home. It is one of the most personable places one can ever live in. Detroit is a city with tons of potential. Even further, what other law school is located on an international waterline. You can literally be in Canada in under ten minutes on a good day.
How would you describe the UDM Law community?
Small. Family like. Awesome.
What have you benefitted from the most at UDM Law?
I have benifitted most from the internship and networking oppurtunities. I have been very fortunate, and to date have not worked one unpaid internship and also have another great summer oppurtunity lined up that is also paid.
What has been your best experience in law school?
My best experience in law school has been the UDM Law Fellowship I recieved to work at a nonprofit organization. My experience at the State APpellate Defender officed was unmatched. I was so privileged to be able to work on a series of Michigan Court of Appeals Cases, a Michigan Supreme Court Case, annd even a United States Supreme Court Case. I was also able to see two innocent men who had been incarcerated for over 25 years for a crime they did not committ. My experience there, which was made possible by UDM Law's Fellowship gave me this oppurtunity as a law student, which I enjoyed and learned a great deal.

5 ideas to help fix budget mess
Uncertainty about the fiscal cliff and long-term debt continues to plague the U.S. economy. The deficit is about $1.1 trillion or 7.3 percent of gross domestic product. Federal debt will soon reach 73 percent of GDP – the highest level since 1950 and about twice its level in 2007.
Reducing the deficit by either decreasing spending or increasing taxes will slow growth and possibly cause a recession. Indeed, the Congressional Budget Office estimates that the tax and spending changes set for January would lower the deficit by $500 billion in one year; the result would be a decline in GDP of 0.5 percent in 2013, with unemployment rising to 9 percent.
Surely, Congress realizes that there is no reason to decrease by so much so quickly when we can borrow at historically low rates, cut the deficit slowly, and avoid severely harmful effects on individuals and the economy.
A better solution would be to quickly adopt a credible plan to reduce the debt over time. But, what should the provisions be?
Some tax increase for the wealthy makes sense; recent work shows that the optimal tax rate is higher than current rates but not by much.
Too high an increase will cause wealthy individuals to transfer income producing efforts elsewhere. Also, increasing taxes on the wealthy solves only a small portion of the problem. It is likely that everyone will need to either pay more taxes or receive less in the form of entitlements or credits.
A better idea would be to increase tax revenue by increasing income rather than tax rates. So, we should be using fiscal policy to promote income generating activity, but how?
One idea is to provide tax incentives to reinvigorate certain types of manufacturing in the United States. For example, we could provide support to build high efficiency manufacturing facilities in low cost-of-living communities and train workers to gain necessary skills, essentially "making Detroit our China."
We could boost the housing market through a rent-to-buy program, aiding young families to build home equity while soaking up existing inventory.
We could increase taxes on "bads" like alcohol, cigarettes, and pollution, and decrease taxes on "goods" like payroll employment which would increase revenue while promoting employment.
We can also ask those who can afford to do so to pay more for entitlements like Medicare, Social Security and higher education while providing support for those who can't.
Lastly, we need tax reform to simplify the system and eliminate deductions that have outlived their usefulness. Bottom line – tax revenue has to rise.
But, political reality suggests that it will be difficult to accomplish many of the needed changes. We can't make Detroit our China without a similar effort in every state. We cannot easily eliminate deductions because of powerful lobbyists.
How can we change the political system? I will leave that question for my political science colleagues. After all, I am an economist, and this is only the Cliff Notes version.

Skip to comments.Bill stems from Obama 'birther' controversy
Posted on 01/12/2010 3:25:13 PM PST by Berlin_Freeper
If Barack Obama wants to run for re-election he would need to produce proof of both his U.S. birth and citizenship to get on the ballot in Arizona, at least under a measure being pushed by a state legislator.
Rep. Judy Burges, R-Skull Valley, is crafting a measure to require anyone running for president or vice president to provide proof to the Arizona Secretary of State's Office that they are legally eligible to seek the office. The U.S. Constitution requires the president - and, by extension, the vice president - to be "a natural born citizen."
(Excerpt) Read more at eastvalleytribune.com ...
Better late than never.
This should be a no brainer. All of the states should have such laws on the books. The theory is the states, not the popular vote, elects the president.
And this is the way to do it.
Arizona? In the interest of kissing butt McCain will come out and say the states doesn't need it.
This is a great move, but they also need to require all presidential and VP candidates to also produce their college transcripts and full medical records.
There's already a law about it. He'll just ignore this one, too.
Someone still has guts in this country. If JD Hayworth does not run against Juan McShame then maybe this lady will run or Sheriff Joe.
Ahhh..., good news... Arizona tries it again. It was Arizona, Texas, Oklahoma and Missouri before.
I still don't know about Oklahoma this time around...
Very cool!!!
A while back you said you set your computer to notify you "automatically" when new pings come in.
How do I do that?
Interesting, despite the whiners above.
Easy Enough to Counterfit !
"Theres already a law about it. Hell just ignore this one, too."
What law? The Constitution has no enforcement mechanism for Presidential eligibility. The Congress has the job by default because it counts the Electoral Votes.
This law, if well written, bypasses that and requires documentation to be submitted to the state.
Do'h, and we were just getting used to our foreign born anti-American leader...
How do I do that?
Where it has this across the top of your webpage (when on Free Republic)... to the right of the "Sign Out"... you'll see a little symbol there, just click on it... :-)
Free Republic | Forum | Account | Mail | Pings | Post | Sign Out
Or maybe THIS will do it...
I got tired of it after a while, though, and don't use it anymore... :-)
More to the point, Burges would require the secretary of state to verify, independently, that the information is accurate.
"And if it's not certifiable, then that person's name would not go on the ballot," she said.
Seems simple enough. The candidate provides a copy of his stamped, certified birth certificate to the Secretary of State who then verifies this information with the vital records office of the state that generated the birth certificate. Not quite sure how this will keep Obama off the ballot in 2012.
Has anyone seen the text of the law?
A proper law, if well written, would be neutral and apply to all public offices in the State of Arizona (or any other state).
Ideally, it would require that a candidate submit as part of the normally required paperwork to appear on the ballot one of the following sets of documents:
1. A certified copy of a birth certificate issued by a State, Federal District, Incorporated or Inincorporated Territory, or other entity of the United States showing:
Name at birth
Date of birth
Time of birth
Place of birth
Names of parents
2. A certified copy of a birth certificate issued by a foreign government or entity with the information required in option one, combined with a report of a US citizen born abroad issued by a US Consul and such other documentation issued at the time of birth as provided by the Congress regarding a birth of an American citizen outside the United States.
3. A certified copy of a birth certificate issued by the Territory of American Samoa with the information required in option one, combined with a certificate of naturalization issued as provided by the Congress for a naturalized citizen from American Samoa.
4. A certified copy of a birth certificate issued by a foreign government or entity with the information required in option one, combined with a certificate of naturalization issued as provided by the Congress for a naturalized citizen.
This is the winning approach to the issue. If adopted in even a handful of states, it would effectively force Obama and all other candidates to prove their constitutional eligibility before they get on the ballot. Best of all, the various legal doctrines that have frustrated federal court challenges do not apply in state court.
Cannot make it retroactive. Look at the 2000 election between Bush and Gore when the rats tried to change Florida state election laws after the election to benefit their recounting efforts. The Federal Supreme Court stepped in and overruled the Florida Supreme Court preventing them from making any such changes. So such a change would be very nice, it is impossible. What would be nice if the Federal Supreme Court would simply be interested in upholding the current laws on the U.S. Constitution.
Theres already a law about it. Hell just ignore this one, too.
The reason why this kind of state law is being proposed (and it should be proposed and passed in several states, hopefully) -- is because people soon found out (if they didn't already know it) -- that there is no legal requirement for a Presidential Candidate to produce his birth certificate, in order to run.
Basically the way they've done it for a long time now (many candidates in the past) is to sign a statement swearing that they are qualified per the Constitution. That's what Obama did, which was just like the other candidates in the past.
So, Obama did not ignore the law to show his birth certificate to someone -- because there is no such law... :-)
Get a state law passed and that will happen... :-)
Is that proof going to require documentary evidence that both parents were American citizens at the time of birth???
Seems simple enough. The candidate provides a copy of his stamped, certified birth certificate to the Secretary of State who then verifies this information with the vital records office of the state that generated the birth certificate. Not quite sure how this will keep Obama off the ballot in 2012.
Well, since the State of Hawaii has officially confirmed that Obama was born in Hawaii, that sort of answers that question (of where he was born) for a lot of people who were questioning and doubting that.
So, for those people, who have already heard the official statement from the State of Hawaii that Obama was born there -- it won't help them. They already know that now.
I guess it will help those who may doubt it and want further "confirmation" from some printed and certified copy from the State of Hawaii to that effect. So, maybe that will satisfy that small segment who are holding out for a certified paper copy of the birth certificate to be delivered to someone to examine and then verify that indeed this is what the State of Hawaii did print and certify.
I just think it's a good idea for all candidates, whether it's Obama or the next candidate to come down the pike.
It sounds like we better get you in touch with those legislators then... :-)
This is the winning approach to the issue. If adopted in even a handful of states, it would effectively force Obama and all other candidates to prove their constitutional eligibility before they get on the ballot. Best of all, the various legal doctrines that have frustrated federal court challenges do not apply in state court.
That's exactly right, it will do the job and do it for anyone, whether it's Obama or the next candidate to come down the pike.
But, don't expect the ones who are of the "Obama Derangement Syndrome" to even support this kind of state law, as what I've heard directly from a few of them -- is that this is a "diversion" from their efforts to force Obama to show his birth certificate and that it's a Democrat trick to get them "off track" of what they are doing.
No..., really..., I've basically had a few tell me that, along with the fact that when I've proposed this very thing, that I was from the DU, sent over here to "sidetrack" those who want to get rid of Obama.
There's a lot of opposition to this kind of thing (i.e., a state law) -- or, at least, there has been in the past. I don't know if many of the Obama Derangement Syndrome people are still opposing it like they were right after the election... when I was proposing it.
Can't be done... sorry...
Is that proof going to require documentary evidence that both parents were American citizens at the time of birth???
That understanding, that you're presenting here, is disputed among conservatives and others, as to whether that is a requirement. You may think so, but others think not.
As far as I can see, this kind of requirement that is spoken about here on Free Republic with a few Freepers maintaining that this is so -- is only going to be resolved by a Supreme Court decision.
You're not going to find any legislature that will pass that kind of specific requirement into law -- but -- you will find that state legislatures will have a relatively easy time of passing a law that requires a birth certificate to be shown or else the candidate cannot be on the ballot.
Well, the barn door is open and the first horse is long gone. But, this might help in the future.
It's time to take back the country. Another 49 states doing this same thing would be a great start.
Ok, so what happens if a few states pass a law like this and Obama or whomever is running and don't comply. Their are no votes allowed for Obama or whomever as they wont be on the ballot?
I wonder about any write in's? Talk about voter disenfranchisement....sheesh.
And if a candidate wins w/o those states' votes?
And of course the SCOTUS would need to rule on this ASAP...like well before any primary/general election.
Sure, I think their needs to be a way to check a candidates credentials, but this seems like a difficult way to get there.
Probably not since:
A. Parents' citizenship at time of birth is irrelevant to the eligibility of an American-born candidate and...
B. How would a candidate go about proving the citizenship status of his parents? Would a candidate have to submit his parents' birth certificates as well? His parents' naturalization paperwork? What if the candidates parents are deceased? File a FOIA request with USCIS?
Anyways, it's a moot point. See A. above.
The problem with wishful thinking is the rats use it as law.
No, the bill hasn't even been written yet.
I think the State Eligibility Law is a mistake.
The only likely successor to an Obama term is one of Osama's sons taking over as Prez of the USA.
Let's face it, who better to understand terrorism then the son of a terrorist.
It's a Win Win... and a logical succession to Obama.
The State Law could prevent this and should be avoided.
As of this writing, Nancy Pelosi is working on notorizing the Osama Jr. eligibility doc.
I respectfully disagree. If we truly believe in the Constitution we should be satisfied with the requirements in the Constitution. College transcripts and medical records are not required by the Constitution. Even candidates have a right to privacy. Plus, I would not want to exclude people who have not gone to college from running for President.
No Constitutional justification for it.
The Constitution isn't a law? I wonder how many Constitutional violations he's made.
Not according to the definition of "natural born citizen" by Justice Marshall in the Venus decision of 1814, history of qualifications of American Presidents, and the Senate's own SR511.
Then all of those legislatures will just be engaging in a waste of time.
All you would need is one state to demand the long form of the birth certificate and you'd have all the proof you would need. If he didn't produce it for Arizona, the rest of the states would see what a fraud he was and the jig would be up.
I disagree and I'm certain the Supreme Court does as well. Nonetheless, you didn't answer my question. What method shall the candidate use to prove to the Arizona Secretary of State that his parents were U.S. citizens at the time of his birth?
Would 0b0z0 dare run for reelection? If he does, I have a suggestion:
We find somebody who's a naturalized American citizen, foreign accent and all that throws his hat into the ring in '12.
That application will be thrown out for obvious reasons. A lawsuit demanding all candidates to prove beyond any doubt that they are NBC!! Otherwise, it's discrimination, plain and simple.
I would love to see the look on 0b0z0's face, would he run or run away? We could see some of his ghostly records!

Benign diseases of the esophagus include severe GERD and achalasia.
GERD (reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus) is often treated with acid blocking medication (common examples include omeprazole, Nexium®, Protonix® and Prevacid®). Despite maximum therapy with these medications, some people still experience severe reflux symptoms. In these cases surgery may be the only option to treat the problem because the sphincter muscle is too weak to prevent acid from leaving the stomach and entering the bottom of the esophagus (show picture). Operations used to treat this involve wrapping part of the stomach around the muscle to reinforce it. These are performed laparoscopically and result in improvement of symptoms in nearly 90% of cases. Typically, patients are able to go home 2 days after the procedure.
The lower esophageal sphincter muscle normally relaxes to allow food to pass into the stomach. In achalasia, the muscle does not relax properly. This causes food to sit in the bottom of the esophagus for a long time causing bad breath, choking, vomiting and eventual enlargement of the esophagus (show picture). The treatment for this is an operation which splits the muscle to allow passage of food more normally. This is also done laparoscopically and, as a result, most people go home 2 days after the procedure.
Another problem which can result is a paraesophageal or hiatal hernia. The aperture in the diaphragm (breathing muscle) through which the esophagus passes gets larger and part of the stomach, and sometimes other organs, can get pushed up into the chest (see picture). This can cause shortness of breath, severe acid reflux that does not respond to acid blocking medications and a sensation of food sticking after swallowing. In rare cases this can cause a twisting of the stomach causing complete blockage. Patients with this problem often have upper abdominal pain and cannot hold down any food or drink. This tends to be more of an emergency. Either way, paraesophageal hernias are repaired laparoscopically. The operation makes use of a few small incisions on the abdomen; the stomach is pulled out of the chest and put back into normal position and the aperture in the diaphragm is closed just enough to allow the esophagus to pass through it. The stomach is wrapped around the junction of the esophagus and the stomach loosely to prevent recurrence. Patients typically go home 2 days after the surgery.
A thorough evaluation is performed by our surgeons who specialize in the treatment of diseases of the esophagus. This will involve a test called manometry, where a special probe is placed in the esophagus to measure the effectiveness of the muscle contractions. Additionally, a similar test which measures the acid content of the stomach and esophagus is performed and is called a 24-hour pH monitoring. These tests are essential to properly diagnose GERD or achalasia and determine which operation is appropriate.
These tests can be performed in our state-of-the-art diagnostic GI laboratory and is the only one on Staten Island. The results are interpreted by the surgeons and used to tailor the surgical approach appropriate for you.

By RICHARD SHAWEmery County Progress publisher
When I first moved to eastern Utah in 1991, I began exploring parts of the San Rafael Swell I hadn't seen before, even though as a dirt biker from Salt Lake, I had spent many a day driving the roads and the trails of the place. Living here was a chance to go down even on an evening and really discover the place.
During those early explorations, one of the places I began to survey was the Moore Cutoff Road, although at the time I didn't know that is what it was called. Along that road is a place that on the map is called the Roan Cliffs (probably named that from the color of the cliffs which are sorrel or chestnut color.)
While I didn't know what the area was called, I was fascinated with the small valley there. All around it large blocks of rock had broken off from the cliffs above and created a play land of jumbled stone. So, because of that, I called the place Jumble Valley. So if I was going on a hike there and my wife would ask me where I was going, I would say "the Jumble Valley."
Forget the fact that the area actually had its own official name.
Flash forward to 1998. It was late in the fall and I wanted to get some quiet time so I left the house on a beautiful day in the middle of the week and called my wife at work telling her that I was going to the "Jumble Valley" and would be back around 5 p.m.
That day had dawned crisp and cold, but the weather had warmed up considerably by mid-day. I took our house dog, Shiver, with me.
We arrived and started to hike. Now Shiver, being a small brown mutt type of dog, had short legs, but he did his best to stay up with me. The first jaunt I took from where the truck was parked took a couple of hours. By the time we got back I was carrying Shiver; he told me in his dog voice that he was a house dog and this hiking thing was not for him. He did that by laying in the middle of a trail and refusing to move. When we got back to camp, he crawled under my truck. I gave him some water which he willingly drank, but then he ran back under the truck.
After some lunch, I tried to get him to come out and go with me again, but he wouldn't budge. He just laid there looking at me, basically telling me where to go. So I left him under the shade of the truck and started off on my merry way.
I returned a few hours later, as the sun was beginning to wane in the sky and he still lay under the truck. I tried to get him out because I was about ready to leave, but again he wouldn't come out, no matter if I offered him food, water or even a piece of ham that I have left over from lunch. His obstinacy actually made me rethink my plans. I looked around, realized there was still plenty of daylight and decided to go up a trail where I had never gone before. I began my third hike of the day and soon I was lost among the red and brown rock of the Roan Cliffs. As the sun went down I found myself in a mystical place and sat down to rest. As I lay on a rock watching the days light dying I drifted off to sleep. The rock was still warm from the sun and it lulled me into a dream.
Then I suddenly awoke with a start when I rolled off the stone and onto the hard ground. By this time it was cold and the light over the horizon was completely gone from the sky. It was dark; and I only had one little flashlight, with very weak batteries, to get back to the truck.
Bad planning on my part.
I headed back, knowing my way, but in the dark things certainly looked different. The early November cold was beginning to close in on me, despite the fact I had donned the sweat shirt I had tucked inside my back pack. I began to wonder as I crept around rocks and down dim trails if I would have to break out the thermal blanket and spend the night.
About an hour later, I finally made my way back to the truck. There was Shiver still sleeping under the vehicle in the dim light of my flashlight and he wouldn't come out. I opened the truck door and glorious beams poured out from the interior light. I threw my pack in the back and started it. The dog immediately flew out from under the truck and jumped over my lap onto the passengers side of the seat. He knew I wasn't fooling this time; we were going home.
I gathered up all the other stuff (lawn chair, cooler, etc.) and tossed it in the back of the truck and drove off. It was only then that I realized the time. It was almost 8 p.m. I had no cell phone back in those days so I knew I had to wait until I was to Ferron to tell my wife I was just running late.
Somehow, as I pulled out of the area where I was parked I lodged the trucks third member on a rock, which luckily didn't break, but lifted the vehicle just enough that it wouldn't move. One wheel just spun in the dirt as I watched it fling sand backward in the ever dimmer light of my flashlight. It was time to break out the jack and put some rocks under the wheels to help it clear and free the rear end from the stones clutches.
I spent another 15 minutes finding all the jacking parts that were scattered between the engine compartment and behind the seat of the truck and then another 15 getting it jacked up and free of the stone it had been lodged upon. The whole time Shiver stood on the seat looking at me as if he thought I was crazy.
In the eyes of the dog world I probably was.
I finally drove away about 8:30 p.m.
It was about 9 p.m. when I got to Ferron and found a pay phone.
"Hi," I said as she answered the phone.
"Where are you?" she said in an excited voice. "I have been really worried about you."
"It's a long story. I'm in Ferron. I'll tell you about it when I get home."
"I already called the Emery County Sheriffs Office to tell them you were missing," she said. "They asked me where you had gone and I told them you had gone to Jumble Valley.'
"You're kidding?" I said. "What did they say?"
"They said they had no idea where that was, and if you were lost at night in the Swell they would probably just have to wait until morning since they had no idea of where to begin to search," she said. "But they were ready to go look for you."
It was probably a good thing I had used the wrong name or they just would have found a guy who fell asleep on a rock. On the other hand had I been hurt or incapacitated in some way, they would have never found me that night.
It was a lesson well learned for me. Now things go by their proper names when possible; people, places and even dogs. No more nicknames for me.
