Graceie is now home in Miami Township with her very grateful owner, thanks to the persistence of dedicated Clermont County Humane Society Animal Control Officer Anthony DeRose.
Tim Liming said Graceie, a 1 ½-year-old black and white shepherd mix, disappeared from his home in early November. Immediately, Liming said he began putting up posters with his dog's picture asking anyone who finds her or sees her to call him. Then, he noticed another sign nearby saying they had found a shepherd mix.
Liming, in a letter to the shelter, said he immediately called the number on the poster and was heartbroken to be told that the dog had been given away. The distraught owner asked if the man on the other end of the line would please help him get his dog back and the man emphatically said no.
Liming visited police who referred him to the shelter where he met DeRose. "He told me his dog had escaped from his fenced- in yard and about everything he had done to try to find her," said DeRose, a 15-year employee of the shelter.
"As Tim talked about Graceie I could see how upset he was. He confirmed the dog is his and provided me with pictures of the missing dog, vet records, and copies of flyers he had posted. I told him I would call him as soon as I could find anything out about Graceie."
DeRose followed up and called the person who originally found the dog. Later that day, an unidentified woman called saying she wanted to return the dog to her owner, even though she said her family had fallen in love with her.
"I told the woman I would need to come to her home to positively identify the dog," said DeRose, who also informed her how the dog became a "stray" and that her owner was desperately trying to find her. "It was hard for the lady to return the dog, but, she did and I took Graceie back to her owner."
Even though the dog owner was cited for not having a current dog license (the best way to unite a missing dog with his owner), he was overjoyed to have his Graceie home.
"The only reason Graceie is home today is because of Officer DeRose," said Liming in his letter. "Next time you see the officer please give him a hug from both me and Graceie."
DeRose said, "It really makes you feel good when you know you have helped someone."

For the best results, cook the pasta shells just until al dente (still slightly firm). They are easier to stuff, and they won't be overcooked during baking.
If you can't find chive and onion cream cheese spread, just stir 1 tablespoon of each, finely chopped, into plain cream cheese spread.

An idea for our officialsPosted Friday, December 21, 2007, at 10:21 AM
We're beginning to wonder if China has quietly declared war on the United States.
After all, nearly 100 million product items have had to be removed from the shelves of American businesses this year alone because the goods being sold, made in China, posed health hazards to both children and adults (and our cat and dog pets).
Let's ignore for a minute the increasingly disturbing trend of American companies to "outsource" and buy items overseas, instead of supporting Americans and American companies.
The Chinese have clearly been threatening American health, safety and welfare.
But there may be a lesson there to be learned.
Here, in the United States, when something like that happens, we hold Congressional hearings and politicians thump their breasts in outrage. And little actually ever gets fixed.
In China, they executed the head of their equivalent of the Food and Drug Administration.
Hmm. Maybe they've got something there. Sure would make our own bureaucracy a little more careful and responsive, wouldn't it?

Have been listening to Groove Armada's classic "Back to Mine" mix and it's easily one of the tightest and most diverse sets I have ever heard (although I generally prefer the more electronica-influenced material).

|In response to Re: Recycling - Built-in Microwave & Oven
: We recently replaced our black 27" GE built-in mirowave and oven with a newer model. The old microwave/oven was installed in 1987, still works great, and would be perfect for someone wanting to update their own kitchen. Is there someplace or someone that I could give the older microwave/oven to?
: I hate to haul it to the dump, because its still in perfect working condition. If you know of anyone who would take it, please let me know. Thanks.

Luv, Love these shoes!
"I love these shoes and try to find "outfit" excuses to wear them. They run slightly wide, which works for me since I wear trouser socks during the winter months. This shoe is bet worn with dresses or suits... but I put them on just to prance in front of the mirror sometimes. It is one I recommend keeping in the closet just because!"

Terribly Made Through and Through
"I'm someone who loves wearing very tall heels, but even tall heels need to be made well and comfortable enough to walk in. The cons far outweigh the pros for this boot. I wouldn't recommend this to any of my friends.Pros:+ Blocks out wind pretty well during the winter+ Very strong material used for the heel and sole+ Wide shaft for my wide calves+ Wide sole/heel for walking stabilityCons:- No arch support (and I don't even have high arches by any definition). This was noticeable by the pocket of air I could feel between the ball and heel of my foot as I walked and caused far too much joint pains, which leads to my next con...- No cushion whatsoever and the sole is made of very hard material (even when I doubled up on socks -- which identified more cons -- the soles of my feet would cry for mercy within the first 2 hours of wear)- Unforgiving upper material (found this out when I doubled up on the socks to add cushion). When I wore socks, the material used to make the upper material would squeeze so tightly on the bone of my upper foot that it caused me pain, and this is even though I ordered a size up so that I could fit winter socks into the shoe- Extremely steep angle causes me to feel like I'm not even walking with the balls of my feet anymore, but on the pivot of my toe knuckles, and it causes pain from my toes up to my knees. I like tall heels (I own everything from kitten heels to 6" stilettos, and a majority of my shoes are at least 4" tall), but the angle from the heel down to the ball needs to be proportional to the shoe size. It seems like the platform in the ball of the shoe is too thin for the height of the heel, which makes the angle unnecessarily extreme.- Cheap upper/shell material. The suede is okay, although it did tear a little at the back ankle when I tried putting it on, but the inner shell used to shape the boot is so cheap that when I leave it in my closet (lying flat on its side) for a few months between uses, the very next time I go to put it"

Amazing Boots!
"Love these! Ordered the grey color first and loved them so much I ordered the black. The suede scrunched look is hot with sweater dresses or over a pair of skinny jeans. Have received tons of compliments. Also very comfortable."

Cute, but heel is high!
"These are very cute boots and I always get compliments when I wear them. I like that you can wear them tall or scrunch them down. The only thing I do not like is they hurt my feet at the end of the day. Maybe the heels are just too high for me. If you are used to wearing tall heels, you may not have a problem with them. I think I could have worn a 1/2 size smaller. I ordered 7.5 but usually get a 7. They were out of size 7 when I got these."

When I first started working at Lawrence, I thought for sure that I would be able to make time for both work and writing. That between the long days making anglaise, puff pastry, bread, custards, and caramel, I would still feel stoked to write in this blog (or anywhere else!). Six months later, I've accepted the struggles that I've encountered when searching for energy and inspiration to ever visit this space, especially when the one thing that I blog about the most — cooking! — I simply don't do much anymore. (I mean really: you don't want to hear about endless breakfasts of avocado toast, lentil mush, and late-night popcorn). So one of the things that I thought about over the holidays was how to make this space feel engaging and special to me again. Because I'd really like it to be! And already: relaxing in this space again feels comforting and cozy.
These photos aren't that recent, but hopefully still worth sharing. I've written about the beauty of steamed mussels before (my recipe can be found here). They're one of my favorite dishes to make for friends because they're awesomely cheap, easy, and healthy. And right now, they're in season. I also added an obscene amount of chopped herbs (I used a mix of fresh dill, fennel fronds, parsley, basil, mint, and tarragon), pastis, and my secret ingredient — a tiny dice of raw celery. The steam relaxes the celery slightly and gives the dish a miraculous lift and lightness. We ate big bowls of brothy mussels with crisp duck fat-fried potatoes, a shaved fennel salad, and golden garlic toasts — made with my own bread! (A smuggled-home stump of Lawrence sourdough).
So here's to more parties… and garlic toast… and brothy healthfulness… and finding time to spend in spaces that you love…. even if all you make six days of the week is avocado toast and lentil mush.

Add a Little Color to Easter With Brach's Pastel Fiesta Malted Milk EggsFriday, February 26th, 2010 by Becca Droz
Sharability: 8
Denture Danger: 5
Convenience: 7
Novelty: 8
Overall: 8
Sweet, almost too sweet, cruncharific, colorful, malty, chocolatey, candy covered, (but mostly malty); these Brach's Pastel Fiesta Malted Milk Eggs are perfect for the Easter Fiesta.
These eggs are a malted mouthful and they are made with "Real Milk Chocolate." (I sure hope it's real! I didn't realize candy companies had to inform the consumer that we were purchasing real chocolate; I would only assume that a chocolate candy being made from real chocolate be an implicit rule).
Though a few at a time make this candy seem utterly delectable, after you pass the threshold of the Pastel Fiesta Malted Milk Eggs it's time to pass the bag on and come back later. Make sure to mix these pastel speckled eggs into the Easter basket this March to spice up the holiday with a little variety and lot of color.

9 Responses to "Add a Little Color to Easter With Brach's Pastel Fiesta Malted Milk Eggs"
Have you noticed that something bad has happened to Brach's chocolate candy in the last year? I think the company must have been sold or something. The quality of their chocolate has deteriorated. My sister first noted it in malted milk balls last summer and then I noticed it in the chocolate covered raisins in the fall. I held my breath to see if my beloved fiesta eggs would also be adversely affected – AND THEY ARE! This was my all time favorite candy my whole life. I would hunt down every last store that sold them each year. Now I am heartbroken that they are not the same quality – the taste is awful – the chocolate is crummy. I am so sad. The end of happiness in the world.
So dissapointed this year. Cannot even find a bag of these Fiesta eggs anywhere to see for myself if they are still good. They have been my favorite since I was a child also. Last year only Walmart and HyVee had limited amount and ran out early. What's the deal! Bought 2 bags of what I thought were these only to get home and find out they were pure chocolate. Do not want to order Easter Candy through the mail. Would like to pick it up in the store with all my other Easter purchases. What happened?
I am very disappointed. I couldn't find any Fiesta eggs at all. This was my favorite candy. I've waited all year and nothing!!
Can't believe it either. I have searched every year for these childhood favorites and have found them each year except this year. I can't believe I will have an easter season without them. Why are they so hard to find. Used to be at Walmart, and then Target , and then nowhere. Boohoo !!!
Brachs Fiesta eggs are the family favorite and we too are disappointed not to be able to get them. Walmart didn't carry them or the local grocery stores.
Boo hoo is right! Farley & Sathers bought Brach's in 2007 and MUST have changed the recipe! My sister and I (longtime obsessed fanatics of Brach's Fiesta malted milk eggs) are devastated to find they have messed with perfection. We fought over, hid and stole these eggs from our brothers Easter baskets. Little did they know.
We look forward to them with such love and affection that my sister in law in the Midwest has to mail them to us on the East coast. They are impossible to find here! If these eggs have such a cult following bring back the BRACH'S Malt Milk Easter eggs!
Fiesta malted milk ball eggs are my favorite candy. I always look forward to Easter just so I can get them. After reading the other comments,I feel lucky. I have been able to find them every year in my local store. I usually buy 6 bags, because my husband enjoys them as much as I do. Also, being a cross country trucker has its advantages. We can check all over the USA for these gems. PLEASE don't ever stop making these, I love 'em…….
We usually buy 20 bags around Easter and eat 3 or 4 before Easter. My wife hides whatever isn't eaten at Easter. Pulled a bag out in mid-february and it lasted about 5 minutes.
Everyone of our 6 children noticed they weren't the same this year. We bought 6 bags and still have 3 left. Very disappointing. Has been a family favorite for over 40 years when we bought them in bulk at the local dime store. Go back to the old recipe please.
I noticed the last time I bought them that they were different from the original version. I still think they are better than any of the competition, but they are not the fiesta eggs I grew up loving.
What were the new owners thinking? Saving money? How can that be with the price they charge now. Why mess with a recipe that had such a loyal following?
Very disappointed with the change. Bring back the old recipe!

International School Meals Day 2014: Celebrating the Importance of Nutrition, Health and Learning Worldwide
Visiting schools around the country to discuss the importance of health and nutrition with students and educators is one of the favorite parts of my job. Today, I had the opportunity to share these nutrition messages globally! On this day, USDA recognized the second annual International School Meals Day (ISMD), where schools around the world celebrate by promoting healthy eating and learning. This year's theme was "Food Stories."
I joined students and staff at Watkins Mill High School, an International Baccalaureate World School in Gaithersburg, Md., to highlight the occasion. There, a select group of students from the International Cultures and Cuisine class shared their school food and nutrition experiences via Skype with other high school students from Acklam Grange School in Middlesbrough, England.

Skip to comments.Wolfowitz to Resign -- Effective June 30..
Posted on 05/17/2007 3:14:10 PM PDT by yoely
Just Breaking
This was a railroad job. Moral: Never piss off the corrupt, entrenched bureaucrats.
drodge! :o)
Just confirmed on Fox
A clockworks orange.
Brit Hume also confirmed this.
Hey, you got me... was in a rush...
That and don't keep your girlfriend in style on the company dime.
We have to start somewhere.
I thought he said he would not resign. Wuss.
43 should appoint John Bolton to replace him....
Moral: Behave morally.
He did behave morally.
Apparently many here are unfamiliar with the facts....
Wow ! Is this a bad news day, or what?
Excerpt Of The Day: The Wolfowitz Frame-Up At The World Bank
>>This was a railroad job. Moral: Never piss off the corrupt, entrenched bureaucrats.<<
There is another lesson. When your job is to root out corrupt entrenched bureaucrats, be extra careful to toe the line yourself because they will use any error in judgment against you.
This is political. But Wolfowitz still screwed up.
That said, he lasted longer than the President could have reasonably hoped for.
So what? He'll wind up with another "provided for" position with a hedge fund, a bank, a private equity firm because all these b....... in government from every administration are all in it together.
The vote today is a clarion call. This isn't going away. Wolfie was one of the architects of this Iraq debacle and he's as insulated from the real world as every single politician and government official around the country in every party left and right.
If only the lefty diehards would awaken from their brainwashing, maybe we really could do something, but they are too busy reading Kos and DU to see what needs to be done.
did I read somewhere the fellow who will step into Wolfowitz's place was the second in command under kofi annan when kofi was Sec. Gen of the un?
Okay, the lesson is, don't be dumb enough to let yourself get framed by people you should be politically savvy enough to know are your enemies out to take you down. He should have recused himself from any and all decisions regarding his girlfriend and stuck with his recusal. He should not have suggested or signed off on anything having to do with her promotions, salary, raises or perks.
James Brown? He's a moonbat socialist.
However it is still the USA (White House) who has the say who becomes Worldbank president. That's the way Wolfie got in.
I doubt they will get in Brown.
Grab news by the horns?
I agree with you there. I'm all for the cleaner-than-Caesar's-wife approach.
Thank you, I couldn't remember.
Wolfy sure made it hard for me to support him being a Jew with a Muslim girlfriend. Verboten in my book.
Goodbye Wolfowitz. Thanks for embarrassing our country by allowing us to put our faith in you. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
I won't label her muslim. She is Arab, but she is secular, fighting for women rights in the Muslim world and supporting democratic development. That's contrary to anything Islam stands for.
Or be so arrogant as to think nobody will care if you rig the system to get a plumb job for a woman because she's your girlfriend.
"error in judgment". I like that. I call what he did, sneering arrogance at the very least.
Did you ever bother with the facts?
He insisted on keeping out of questions regarding his girlfriend. The euro libs in the bank assured nothing would be wrong with it, if he signs her a pay raise (which she was entitled to anway). He trusted them. The trap snapped and the euro libs in the bank now can get rid of him.
If anything he was incredibly naive.
"That and don't keep your girlfriend in style on the company dime."
And, you think that such is not the case in many high-ranking positions at the World Bank - besides Wolfowitz - including with one of the directors sitting in judgement of him.
The cesspool of nepotism at the World Bank is such that any "ethical" complaint against Wolfowitz by anyone near his rank is the pot calling the kettle black, in spades.
You are highly uninformed about the real reasons they went after Wolfowitz and what a pack of hypocrites those that did so are.
"Apparently many here are unfamiliar with the facts...."
And those "facts" would be???
Hmm and she managed to get a security clearance as a foreign national that let her traipse around the Pentagon and State Dept. unescorted.
Pretty unprecedented for somebody not attached to an allied government who already possesses that clearance from home. She must have known somebody.
As Casey Stengle used to say, "You could look it up."
"There is another lesson. When your job is to root out corrupt entrenched bureaucrats, be extra careful to toe the line yourself because they will use any error in judgment against you."
And, when:
(a)You know your "girlfriend" must resign, in spite of how many levels below you she is(no direct role from him to her or vice-a-versa), and
(b)when you go to the head of your boards "ethics" committee and tell him that you should be recused from decisions either (i) seeking her resignation, or (ii)financial matters likely to result from that request; and
(c)that "ethics" officials says no, you should handle it and lays out the financial concerns that ought be considered in her favor in consideration of a request that she resign; and
(d)you proceed based on the "ethics" official's recommendations, ask him to review what is to be considered in her regard, financially, which he does and to which he makes no formal objection (but later said he did not believe he was "approving" those considerations, only reviewing them);
then to what is it that you did not "toe the line", and what was your specific "error in judgement".
The only error he made was in not referring the entire matter to his board, when their member in charge of "ethics" did not accept his, Wolfowitrz, request to recuse himself; and he should have demanded that his board appoint someone to handle it and keep him out of it. In going to the member of his board to which questions of "ethics" were to be received, and in every other act he took, there is not a single rule or procedure of the World Bank that he violated.
"The vote today is a clarion call."
A clarion call to what, pray tell???????
Thank you for taking the time to inform the ingnoramuses on this thread what the facts of this case are. Perhaps now they will stop spouting off in their ignorance. < /wishful thinking >
"Thanks for embarrassing our country by allowing us to put our faith in you."
How ignorant about the facts of this case are you???
What his case revealed - to which the lefties in Europe should be, but are not "embarrased" - is the extent to which, the low depth to which, the height of hypocrisy to which they will go in a political attack on someone they do not like, particularly someone trying to push institutional reforms that get in the way of their political percs.
Oh no no, said the little Paul, to ask me is in vain
For who goes down your parlour hall can ne're come up again
The Euros turned him round about and went back in their den
For well they knew the trusting Paul would soon come back again
So they wove a subtle web, in a quiet corner small
And set their table ready to dine upon the Paul
Alas, alas, how very soon this naive little Paul
Hearing wily, soothing words, came flitting toward his fall
Up jumped the cunning Euros when he came buzzing past
They dragged him down the parlour hall and fiercely held him fast
They dragged him in behind a door, into their dismal den
Within their little parlour, and he ne're came out again
Moral of the tale......never underestimate hardball-playing Euro-Arachnids with the power to write unlimited checks and to spin sticky webs.
Both points are valid...but you have to admit that if it was World Bank President Bill Clinton he would,at worst,be mildly reprimanded rather than fired and the BBC wouldn't have uttered a single word about the matter...unlike the wall-to-wall coverage they've given it in recent days.
"Or be so arrogant as to think nobody will care if you rig the system to get a plumb job for a woman because she's your girlfriend."
You are totally ignorant on this case aren't you.
He "rigged" nothing.
She was employed there before he went there.
When he went there everyone, including her, understood that she was going to be asked to resign, even though she was so many levels below his position that they would have no direct, or even indirect work relationship with each other at the bank.
He went to the head his board's ethics committee, seeking his input on handling the matter and suggested to that official that he, Wolfowitz, be recused from any participation in the matter.
That official did not accept Wolfowitz recusal and said he, Wolfowitz, should personally deal with the matter and laid out some of the financial considerations that would be in line to be considered, in lieu of the request that she resign.
Wolfowitz then followed those recommendations in his discussions with the bank's HR officials, reached an agreement with those officials, sought the ethics official's review of those agreements and then let the appropriate departments carry them out. Nothing was done in secret and nothing was done to any violation of any World Bank rule or procedure. Nothing was offered her that was out of bounds of the kind of considerations that would be made by the bank when someone in her position was being asked to resign, due to no fault of her own.
The error Wolfowitz made was not being politically savy enough to realize that European members of his board, working through their member heading the "ethics" committee, were setting him up.
Nothing was "rigged", except the attack the Europeans had set him up for - creating a "scandal" that wasn't and then blaming the chief victim of their manufactured scandal.
"Hmm and she managed to get a security clearance as a foreign national that let her traipse around the Pentagon and State Dept. unescorted. ......Pretty unprecedented for somebody not attached to an allied government who already possesses that clearance from home. She must have known somebody."
You are basically ignorant about the DOD and the State Department, where many people, with security clearances of many levels, high and low, work; where the location of "secure" work and/or the ability to access such work is strictly limited, not simply by security clearance but by the kind and level of work assigned and allowed to do.
Her position at the State Department is still a position paid by the World Bank, working with State Department people and programs that are either related to or coordinated with the economic development work shared by US programs and World Bank programs. She would never be in a location "unescorted" except where she is permitted to do the kind of work that she does; which does not require very great security and does not very great security access.
Just being in the building says nothing; if it did, then they'd have to shut both DOD and State Dept down, for all the lobbyists, lawyers and "officials", foreign and domestic allowed in there with NO security clearance every day.
"As Casey Stengle used to say, You could look it up."
Then you should get looking because apparently you do not know what they are; you're so able to state them - NOT.
This is pure political payback from the Euro-Socialists and their DemonRat buddies in the U.S. for Wolfowitz's role in bringing down Saddam and disrupting Al-Qaeda.
I hope we will repay the payback by withdrawing from the IMF, the World Bank and the UN. Few things would make me happier than to see 1st Ave and 42nd Street turned into a US-military occupied installation and a long queue of anti-American "diplomat" s#!+heads expelled from the US.
Yeah, I know none of this will happen. But we've gotta have goals, right?
I'm not here to educate you.
Tony Blair will be the next nominee by the USA. He needs a job at the end of June when he steps down as Britain's PM, to be replaced by Gordon Brown. Count on it.
By all means enlighten me.

Posted on 02/24/2010 2:09:22 PM PST by Iron Munro
The Drudge Report and other conservative sites are highlighting a newly-unveiled logo for the U.S. Department of Defense's Missile Defense Agency and complaining that the new logo (pictured at left) is reminiscent of both the Obama campaign logo and an Islamic flag.
"the new MDA shield appears ominously to reflect a morphing of the Islamic crescent and star with the Obama campaign logo," writes Big Government's Frank Gaffney. " Team Obama is behaving in a way that -- as the new MDA logo suggests -- is all about accommodating that 'Islamic Republic' and its ever-more aggressive stance."
Critics, meanwhile, are mocking the uproar from the right. Tweeted "Zeus": "Drudge is hinting the new Missile Defense Agency logo resembles an Islamic flag's star & crescent. SECRET OBAMA AGENDA!"
The MDA describes itself as a Department of Defense "research, development, and acquisition agency" that is "focused on retaining and recruiting a dedicated workforce interested in supporting our national security." The agency is engaged in development and testing of an integrated Ballistic Missile Defense System.
You can see the Obama campaign logo HERE
and the Islamic flag star and crescent HERE
I am surprised CAIR has not commented on this yet.
Translation: "Hey, Right Wing! Here's something WE want you to be angry about!"
Yes, we ARE the stupid party.
I would bet this is bothering more people than just conservatives. This is blatant.
That cannot be a coincedence. What the hell?
Looks to me like it borrows from the logo of their prime contractor...
Speak for yourself.
Deb, this is a preposterously stupid thing to get all pissed off about. Look at my #8 above, and see if you can't find even greater similarity.
What about the good old American Flag, you dopes?
Thanks, I will. And also think for myself.
I'm hardly "pissed", but I have to say I was stunned to see a crescent and obvious star in the logo of a US government agency. I remember when the Democrats were SCREAMING HYSTERICALLY because the bookcase in back of a Mike Huckabee commercial looked like a cross.
You'll love the Flight 93 memorial... (The rest of us are rather furious about it.)
I am not a graphic designer but sometimes I play one at work. I'd like to offer my services to design something ORIGINAL for the Agency.
Why do you say that? Are you suggesting something?
It's the "O" infection - we have let it into the body, now it's multiplying and spreading to everything.
It's not a star; it's an explosion.
Hey, CBS, how about doing some real reporting (getting off your *sses) instead of sitting around reading websites!
I'm suggesting your lack of concern is rather sad. Agendas do exist, and Muslim influences in these symbols are evident in a big way.
No, that ornament looks exactly like a painting by influential American artist, Andy Warhol.
Neither does the MDA logo. It's just the Boeing arc, rotated.
Really, some folks get bugs up their butts over the stupidest damned things. Does it ever bother you that it allows other folks to play you like a harp?
No if you will excuse me, I really must leave now and run in frantic circles whilst wailing and waving mine arms.
Right....reporting on Twitter. What the heck?
Let me suggest something to you: some folks on this thread are out of their minds, and it's evident in a big way.
I have plenty of concern for things that matter, but I am rather prickly about other people trying to manage them for their own agendas. I don't care for radical islam either, but that doesn't mean I fret about exploding mullahs under my bed.
It's just a Sanskrit thing, rotated...
I'm not sure why you feel the need to defend it, but I'm sure Allah appreciates your support.
The arc is similar but he's commenting on the crescent shape. Boeing's is a perfect circle.
We all get the imagery but using the Obama color scheme as well as making the circle (i.e. the globe) look like a crescent....well...
Why did the logo need changing anyway? The original was perfectly acceptable. Don't they realize that changes like this cost a lot of money? Idiots!
CAIR loves folks like you.
That's what all true conservatives do, I'm told. Say, have you checked Fox to see what color Threat Level we're at? I need to know just how government-terrorized I should be.
Peace Be Upon You. Doh! I've been outed!
Zero budget for missile defense! Now thats BO's idea of defense spending.
Hussein's defenders have a pattern that is clear.
As does Obama, he loves symbolism, and this logo is obvious.
Spot on.
A sane person wouldn't have written that; or would at least have blushed in embarrassment for having done so.
Get a grip.
Life is just not as interesting for us RINO CAIR-funded Obama defenders, as it is for these folks. It's starting to make me jealous: I'm considering surgery....
You're expecting an objection from that goup of knuckle draggers?
I'm sure the LOVE it.
I call 'em as I see 'em.

So do I.
In the old logo you posted, it is. Clearly. Not so in the new one.
Plus, juxtaposed with what is clearly a crescent, it is even less an explosion and more a star.
Thanks for posting the SEIU logo earlier today. That is where I got it from. Did you come across it yourself, or did see it posted somewhere?
Son of a bitch. Can they be any more "in your face?"

Sigh and you missed the difference.
Walling off Kyuubi's chakra completely blocks Kyuubi from coming out and its pretty patheticly easy to do.
Orochimaru did it with a 5 element seal and completely screwed up Naruto's ability to manipulate chakra.
Kabuto did it with medical ninjutsu almost killing Naruto.
Jiraiya made a seal that could do it and anyone could use it, but it only worked if he didn't hit 3 tails (Which should be a pretty strong indicator that at 3 tails its more Kyuubi then Naruto)
When Yamato did it he did it effortlessly and it was incredibly effective and did not strain Yamato in any appreciatable way.
What Yamato was doing during the Fuuton: Rasenshuriken training was acting as a filter for Naruto he was supressing Kyuubi's will while allowing Naruto to still use Kyuubi's chakra. That required Yamato's full concentration, lots of chakra and massive effort on his part.
The reason why its so easy is essentially your blocking off the chakra from entering Naruto's chakra system. Thats easy to do and Kyuubi has no way to affect Naruto. It also screws up Naruto's ability to control chakra, prevents him from healing. Anyone and thier mother could do this if they know sealing techniques. How ever if Naruto gets pissed off enough unless you like severed the connection physically which is what Kabuto did Kyuubi will blow right past it or it just won't work anymore like Jiraiya's seal only worked up to two tails...

Cleveland resident, Judi Bishop has a lot of hair and she has been very generous with her hair over the years. She is having her hair cut for the sixth time to donate. She said, "You have to have at least 10 inches of hair to donate to Locks of Love. This organization collects hair to have made into wigs for disadvantaged children who don't have hair due to disease and illness. Mostly the hair loss is due to cancer treatments. The clean hair is collected in a pony tail or braid and placed in a plastic bag to be sent to Locks of Love.
"We would like to have a hair drive in the month of August and collect more hair for this organization. There are a number of hair stylists who will donate their time to this cause. I know we have a lot of people in our county with a lot of hair who could really make a difference to a child," said Bishop.
On this day, Lindsay Kay donated the hair cut. Kay just recently set up shop in the Brydi's Groom Salon on North Highway 155 in Cleveland. She is located in the front of the Chute Supply building. Kay said, "I graduated from the Von Curtis Academy in Provo in July of 2001. I have been cutting hair professionally for about a year now. I do cuts, perms and colors. This is a full aspect salon and we serve the men, women and children of Emery County. I didn't really know anything about the Locks of Love program but I was glad to help out."
Bishop is a 50 year cancer survivor. She contracted cancer at the age of 9. She said she has been growing her hair two years this time and she plans to start growing it again until it is long enough to cut and give away again. Kay is the daughter of Terry and Lori Kay of Huntington. If you are interested in participating in the hair drive in August call Bishop at 653-2221 to get more information or to sign up.

Troubled Lives: 10 Celebrities Who Died From Suicide Hangings [PHOTOS]
A somber cloud hung over New York after reports of the tragic suicide of designer and Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger's girlfriend, L'wren Scott by way of hanging began to surface early Tuesday. Scott was discovered in her Chelsea apartment hanging from a doorknob, and was said to be in serious debt.
The grim news shocked many, including Jagger who canceled a performance in Australia and spoke out as reported by CNN. Scott was reportedly $6 million in debt, although by all appearances the popular fashion maven was doing well.
By no means are we making light of this tragic event, and we urge everyone to seek help if and when they can. The National Suicide Prevention Hotline is a wonderful resource for those struggling with these types of thoughts. The hotline can be reached via phone by calling (800) 273-8255.
Hip-Hop Wired takes a look at other celebrities and public figures who died by way of suicide hangings. May they all rest peacefully.

Posted on 05/12/2005 1:56:58 AM PDT by Stoat
Bibles banned
on playgrounds
Legal group challenges restriction on student activity during recess
Posted: May 12, 2005
1:00 a.m. Eastern
An elemenatary school principal who barred students from reading the Bible during recess after a complaint from parents is violating the Constitution, according to a public-interest law firm challenging his actions.
In a letter to the Knox County School District in Tennesee, the Alliance Defense Fund declared the principal of Karns Elementary School is on "shaky constitutional ground."
| "The Constitution does not prohibit Bibles during recess; it prohibits the wholesale banning of Bibles during recess," said Charles Pope, the ADF-allied attorney who wrote the letter to the district.
"A school official cannot tell a student that he can't bring his Bible to school or study it with friends during non-classroom time," Pope stated.
According to ADF, 10-year-old student Luke Whitson used his regularly scheduled recess time to read the Bible with a few friends on his school's playground. After receiving a complaint from a parent, the principal reportedly ordered the students to stop their activity, put their Bibles away and cease from bringing them to school.
"There are no 'age discrimination' allowances in the First Amendment of the Constitution," said ADF Senior Counsel Joseph Infranco. "The law protects these students the same as it protects all students."
Infranco said children "have rights of speech and association during their non-instructional time, and the school may not curtail those rights because of their age."
Whitson's parents sought legal assistance from Pope, who contends "the law as it pertains to this situation is well settled."
"Students may have religious discussions and Bible study during non-instructional time," he explained in his letter. "The school district should immediately issue a statement addressing the unconstitutional actions and policy and alerting all personnel to permit Luke and other similarly situated students to exercise their constitutional rights."
I'll bet the koran is welcome though.
I have no doubt that you're absolutely correct.
Muslims are given classroom space to pray on public school grounds during school days.
Discrimination on the basis of religion, one of our most basic rights this nation was founded on.
They always said the fall of America was to destroy the schools, courts and churches. They are doing a good job at it, Eh?
Just a wild guess....I'm suspecting that the same courtesy and respect is not given to Christian or Jewish children in Arab countries.
Discrimination on the basis of religion, one of our most basic rights this nation was founded on.
Do I understand that you mean to say FREEDOM FROM DISCRIMINATION on the basis of religion?
Yes, that is what I meant. It is 2:15am here and I cannot sleep tinnitus is acting up so here I sit.
No need to apologize, I understand completely. I'm very sorry to hear of your tinnitus...may God Bless you and I wish you comfort and freedom from this terrible condition. Best of luck to you.
Thanks, and God Bless you too.
Socialism is not far behind.
With the help of the ACLU, we are getting there.
Hopefully this matter is only the result of one particularly hysterical, Leftist Principal who is overreaching his / her authority and is not a reflection of State jurisprudence. I would be very disappointed with our Tennessee Friends if they had allowed their State Legislature to fall so very far off the deep end :-)
When the teachers get laid off, the freedom of religion would return quickly.
no problem happy to do it
"I'll bet the koran is welcome though"
The kids probably have to memorize a verse a day out of it too.
I agree completely, although full State and Federal support of Charter schools would make such a boycott far easier for law-abiding parents who wish to do the right thing for their children yet do not wish to be jailed for failing to send their children to school. Government schools will be made better by competition from private and charter schools, and charter schools will be best supported when given the same State benefits and recognition as Government schools.
There is a great deal of work that remains to be done.
When the teachers get laid off, the freedom of religion would return quickly.
Very true. Hopefully parents will be given options that will prevent such drastic measures, however.
It's sad to see how much things have changed at this school in the last twenty years. When I was in fifth grade at this school, the Gideons came and handed out little red New Testaments during class time. Now, you can't read the Bible on your own time? And people wonder why the Baptist school 2 miles down the road has to turn people away and has a waiting list for enrollment.
Oh, and in case anyone feels the need to let the principal know their feelings, her name is Cathy Summa. She may be reached at email@example.com
I know you're in Middle Tennessee (I think), but do you have a Tennessee ping list? Thought this might warrant a ping or two.
Yes, THEY have been busy for YEARS! Perfect example of incrementalism.

Current Communist Goals
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
To quote or paraphrase Ann Coulter, Liberals hate all religions except Islam.
