The day library discovery died - 2035
A tongue in a cheek, thought experiment or perhaps precautionary tale of the ultimate fate of library discovery services in 2035.
With another sigh, Frank tried again using the more reliable voice recognition system, "Shut down Library discovery service server" he commanded, and this time was rewarded with a request for confirmation.
"Yes, do it".
It was done. Head of library outreach Annie Watson observing the proceedings, chimed in, "Oh well, it was inevitable, but at least we tried."
"Besides this way we don't need to worry about the year 2038 problem", she added perhaps a little insensitively.
Frank didn't respond. Where had it all gone wrong? It began so promisingly, in the 2010s. After years of declining usage of library catalogues, libraries fought back with web scale discovery tools.
Summon, EDS (god rest their souls) and many others that followed seem to be the answer to the riddle "Why start at the library home page". Spotting modern interfaces light years ahead of existing catalogues, designed for users and not librarians, and most importantly the ability to break down silos in library content, libraries were finally able to compete with web search engines on a even footing using technologies and architecture that mimicked the then dominant web search giant Google.
Back then, Frank a fresh new systems librarian in Yale University (before the MOOC wars of 2020s forced the extinction and consolidation of all but the top universities in the world) was so impressed he enthusiastically blogged that "after false dawn of Federated Searches and Next generation catalogues, web scale discovery services were the answer".
To be fair, Frank had reason to be optimistic. Users were raving, usage of eresources was up substantially and the future seemed bright. The rot seemed to have stopped.
But this didn't last. As libraries caught up with existing commercial web technology, the web companies pulled ahead again and usage started to fall again. In retrospect, it seems sheer hubris to think that library technology companies most of whom were squabbling with each other could compete with the likes of Apple, Google, Amazon who had a larger budget on their entertainment fund alone than all the revenues of the library technology vendors combined.
While library technology companies were figuring out how to make interfaces that weren't hellish to use in the 2010s, commercial companies were figuring out voice recognition technologies, intelligent agents, semantic web technologies and more.
The last stung in particular. Many visionary prominent librarians had opined that one way the library could have a place at the table would be as part of the linked data movement, exposing the vast store of rich metadata libraries had.
It didn't work out that way. Squabbles over MARC, RDA , inertia and the inability to collaborate meant that as usual the library missed the boat.
By the time, libraries and library vendors realised the danger it was too late. Even a desperate final last ditch consolidation of Ebsco -Proquest - Gale to create a super search that boasted the combined content and metadata of practically all library content providers did nothing but delay the end.
The logic of pushing your content to where the eyeballs are was too strong. While this initially benefited Web scale discovery searches, where content providers were forced to add their content there or see declining usage. In the long run, this logic was even stronger for putting content on Google, Mendeley and other truly web scale services. Divisions and squabbles among content providers and discovery vendors led to the irony where Google and their cousins had *MORE* content you could discover than on the library discovery systems.
Today, most libraries just publish holding data online that are tapped upon by commercial web systems around the world (based on a improved variant of the openurl protocol) and give up on the pretense of offering a superior discovery experience.
While there were still holdouts who could point to extreme specialised uses where the web scale discovery service was a little better and a few libraries still retained such obscure systems, in 99% of cases the web search engines were superior with the ability to almost know what you wanted before you looked for it. Libraries hampered by the need to respect privacy had no way to compete even if they had the technology, though they did give it a go with learning analytics and gamification. Sadly, the facebook generation did not appreciate the value of privacy.
The response of information literacy librarians was surprising. By the 2020s, most recognised that information literacy was not about teaching the tool, or even finding sources, and most opted out of the debate, that didn't save them in the long run, but that's another story for the future....
While most academic libraries in the 2010s bought into the discovery meme, a few others saw the writing on the wall sooner and their rallying cry was "delivery not discovery" and decided to opt out of the discovery wars which they saw (correctly as history will record) libraries had already lost and ceded discovery mechanics to outside the library but focused on delivering content once discovery occurred elsewhere.
The majority of commenters branded such moves as "Defeatist" , deriding such moves as turning the library back to a warehouse (albeit a digital one with libraries focusing on digitizing their special collections and having in available everywhere).
In the end though the final seeds of the defeat of the library discovery movement was sowed by the librarians themselves in a completely different direction. By 2030, to their immense surprise, Open Access became the norm (the story of how this came to past is too long and complicated to detail here), hitting over 75% of all published literature on average and close to 100% in areas like life sciences.
This all but annihilated the reason discovery systems existed - aka the need to track which of the articles your institution had access to.
Frank was suddenly broken out of his introspection by a chime.
"Frank, you may want to know your next appointment is in 30 minutes and you may need to prepare for the meeting as I notice your slide deck isn't complete", chimed in Annie.
"Also you may want to put in more content about why you need such a big budget for human staff when most of the library functions can be run a lot more cheaply by intelligent agents like me", she added a bit too smugly.
Frank sighed again. He almost forgot , Annie wasn't really human. These intelligent agents were so human-like these days and getting more capable by the day. As it is , he was only one of a dozen humans on staff in the whole library and he knew it would only get worse.
God, he was looking forward for his retirement.
The end..............
In many ways, the place of search & discovery in the library cuts into the heart of the debate of what a library is for. This piece is to provoke discussion not an act of prognostication. I was inspired to write by the following essays.
BTW If you want to keep up with articles, blog posts, videos etc on web scale discovery, do consider subscribing to my custom magazine curated by me on Flipboard.
Update : Since I posted this it seems coincidentally similar ideas have been expressed
Responses have ranged from "this is radical" to "this isn't radical enough and will obviously happen way before 2035". Another comment was that this is the death of library "search" not "discovery". Suggestions to avoid this future (see this and this as well as comment below), recommend that we leverage our understanding of our community users to create a "personalized" slice of the discovery pie". I fully agree, but I wonder if individual libraries are up to the task as traditionally the ones provided personalised online experiences have not been libraries.

solar cell, semiconductor devised to convert light to electric current. It is a specially constructed diode, usually made of silicon crystal. When light strikes the exposed active surface, it knocks electrons loose from their sites in the crystal. Some of the electrons have sufficient energy to cross the diode junction and, having done so, cannot return to positions on the other side of the junction without passing through an external circuit. Since the current obtained from these devices is small and the voltage is low, they must be connected in large series-parallel arrays (solar panels) if useful amounts of energy are to be converted. Practical devices of this kind are about 10% to 15% efficient and for many years were most commonly used to provide electric power for spacecraft. For large-scale power conversion solar cells offer a number of practical problems; one of the most serious of these is the wide variation of output voltage and current accompanying changes in the amount of incident light; this can be compensated for on smaller scales by storing energy produced during peak periods in batteries. Reductions in the cost of producing solar panels have made them a viable alternative to electrical generators for homes and villages in remote areas.

Bright & Adorable & surprisingly comfy!
"Most shoes are a little uncomfy when you first get them. These are actually pretty comfy right off the bat! I have very bad Achelle's Heels & so have to be careful that shoes I buy don't dig into the back of my heels. No problem there! And the platform part isn't too big, so you don't feel like you're walking on stilts. And the colors!! Talk about absolutely FUN!!! I *love* these shoes! I just wish they'd come in a black version too like their other "splatter" pattern they had. Only thing I didn't like was the blah shoe laces, so I changed them out for some fun blue glitter fat laces I happen to have."

There has been a lot of talk during this presidential campaign about all the "firsts". Chiefly among the firsts listed...first woman to run for president. And how about the African American candidate...surely that is something of a first as well?
Well, what about Shirley Chisholm? In 1972, she made a run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination and received 152 delegate votes, but lost to George McGovern. This African American woman has apparently been forgotten by everyone in the press, the public and by the candidates themselves.
Maybe they should start reading up on their American history.

Vpapanik has been working with tiny SMT parts in his projects, and could not abide by the exorbitant prices of small pick and place machines currently on the market. His solution? Make his own DIY version using scavenged and commonly available parts.
The heart of the operation is a hollowed-out ballpoint pen connected to an aquarium pump that's been modified to provide suction. This is mounted to a set of sliders on the X and Y axes so the user can manipulate them. For the Z axis, he tore apart a spiral notebook and used the wire as a compression spring slid over the pen for the "picking" action. You can check out the plans on Vpapanik's site in dxf format. The price for all this? "Well under € 100 !"Start the Slideshow

St. Francis River Levels
In Celebration of Charlie Wood
June 19, 2012
It is with sad hearts that news of the passing of Charlie Wood has reached us. Charlie was such a large part of the KCWC and was considered the "grandfather" of the club. He always had a smile and a way of making you feel special. Charlie paddled every type of water craft including kayak, canoe (solo and tandem), rafts, catarafts and more. After his retirement and move to Moab, Utah, he continued to pursue his outdoor interests and paddled a river as often as he could. There will be a celebration of Charlie's life in the near future both in Moab and at a gathering in KC. When dates are known, they will be posted. One of Charlie's articles appears on this website and if you didn't know Charlie, you will after you read his article. This is not the official title of his article, but the link below is how I will always think of Charlie:

Yakima Council Discusses Other Alternatives For Road Improvement Funding
Yakima City Council is meeting tonight to discuss alternatives to funding the city's road repair projects.
Council members Rick Ensey and Sara Bristol say they don't expect voters to pass a 30 dollar car tab fee measure if it is put on a ballot.
Instead, they are suggesting the council approve a city charter amendment, which would require the city to dedicate 2 million dollars a year to road improvements.
That money is expected to come from increased sales tax revenues and extra funds after the police station is paid off next year.

Nancy Lanza, the mother of Newtown shooter Adam Lanza, had grown increasingly concerned about her son's state of mind but did not confront him after finding ghastly images in his room two weeks before the Dec. 14 school massacre, New York's Daily News reports.
News reporters Matthew Lysiak and Bill Hutchinson report on e-mails they obtained that were sent by Nancy Lanza to a friend in which she expressed her feelings on children, weapons and her 20-year-old son's mental state.
Nancy Lanza, who was fatally shot at the home she shared with Adam, was the first victim of the rampage that left 20 children and six adults dead at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Adam then took his own life.
A friend, Marvin LaFontaine, told the News that Nancy Lanza had said that Adam had a genetic disorder that had killed her grandfather and which she also had until it went into remission.
Adam had a form of autism and a sensory perception disorder that kept him from recognizing pain and caused him to recoil from being physically touched.
The newspaper says Nancy Lanza learned of her own condition in 1999, but did not tell her children.
She also had found her son falling deeper into a bizarre mindset, the newspaper reports, and in November, only two weeks before the shootings, found sketches of dead bodies in his room.
"One (drawing) had a woman clutching a religious item, like rosary beads, and holding a child, and she was getting all shot up in the back with blood flying everywhere," an unidentified friend told the Daily News.
"Nancy was disturbed, really disturbed, but didn't confront him," the friend said. "She wanted to think it over."
LaFontaine, a close friend, also told the newspaper that Nancy Lanza had been upset by Adam's treatment while a student at Sandy Hook.
"Nancy told me he was being picked on at school. That they were just torturing him," LaFontaine told the newspaper. "Adam was an easy target. He was quiet and he would never fight back. I think Adam felt betrayed by the school and this was his act of revenge."
Some parents of the victims of Sandy Hook who appeared on 60 Minutes on Sunday said they believe that something was badly amiss in the Lanza household.
""It was like a set of dominoes, in many ways, just waiting for the first one to tick over," said David Wheeler, whose 6-year-old son Ben was among the victims. "I think it is pretty obvious to anyone who looks that something was very, very wrong in there."
Wheeler also blamed a "community vacuum" that allowed Adam's condition to go unaddressed. "This didn't happen by itself," he said. "This didn't happen in a bubble. She had a life, she had friends. People knew. They had to know."
Jimmy Greene, whose 7-year-old daughter Ana Marquez-Green was also a victim, says he believes "there was a huge, gaping hole in the way that that child was parented."

very pretty but not comfy
"I bought these as my wedding shoes, I thought I had found the perfect combination of pretty and comfy. The front strap at the toe is way too tight(and I have long skinny toes). The rest of the shoe is very roomy and the sole is very comfortable. I had read reviews about the front being narrow but I didn't think it would be a problem because my feet are narrow in the front. They squeeze and hurt my toes I may have to return them because of it : ( I would have given this cute sandal 5 stars if they were true to the aerosoles comfort expectations."

Sharon Earl of the Emery County Chamber of Commerce was at the recent meeting of the Emery County Commissioners. She said the Chamber has many projects ongoing. One of the biggest projects is the printing of the 2004-2005 Emery County Business Directory and Information Guide. Earl stated that these booklets are being sent out now to all who call and request information concerning Emery County. The Economic Development Office can distribute the booklets electronically also.
Earl also reported that the Chamber hosted the Christmas Party for the senior citizens. On the evening of the party, a large snowstorm hampered travel in the area and prevented the seniors from Green River from attending the party. She requested permission to host a barbecue in Green River in May, not only for those who missed the Christmas Party, but for all seniors from this end of the county who wish to attend. Kelly Nelson, senior citizen director, will arrange transportation for seniors who want to go.
The Chamber will be spotlighting a business of the month during the year. Earl requested a fee change for Channel 26 to accommodate the chamber with the advertising of the winners. Commissioner Drew Sitterud explained that the fee structure is policy and that would take some time to change. The commission granted permission for Earl to put a display featuring the spotlighted businesses in the lobby of the county building.
Earl stated that the Chamber is interested in creating a Castle Valley Village at the lamb fry in August. The idea is to have a Native American village, a pioneer village, and entertainment, along with the lamb fry. The possibility of moving the location of the lamb fry was discussed. Commissioner Ira Hatch stated that there will be many problems, including safety and health regulations, involved with moving the location. The location Earl has in mind is closer to the pageant site.
Commissioner Gary Kofford stated that the site in question is not adequate and the entire project would need to go through planning and zoning. This is a project that cannot be slapped together quickly.
Earl said that the buses many of the people come to the pageant on, go directly to the pageant site, and these people do not have the opportunity to come into town and eat at the lamb fry. She even suggested setting the time of the fair further back into August as it was many years ago. She said that in years past the lamb fry has used 120 lambs. Last year they served only 49 lambs.
Commissioner Hatch explained that the pageant is partly responsible for the timing of the fair. When the pageant came into being, the church approached the county and requested the time change to coincide with the pageant which would be held on the first weekend in August. He also told Earl that if the Chamber did not want to work with the fair, the fair board would find someone else to do food vending at the fair.
Earl asked the commissioners what was being done to accommodate the thousands of visitors. Commissioner Hatch said the fair is for county people and it is his opinion that the fair accommodates them quite well. Earl expressed her opinion that the county was overlooking the visitors from outside the county that come into the pageant and should be treated as guests.
Sheriff Lamar Guymon said the message is not getting out to the people who come in on buses as far as where to eat. Those people need to be educated about what is available when they get here. "We need better advertising," he said.
Ray Petersen of the Emery County Public Lands Department informed the commissioners that Wayne Ludington from the Bureau of Land Management had contacted him. Ludington has secured the funding to hire a seasonal OHV coordinator. Ludington was requesting the process be started to advertise for a person to fill that position.
Pat Snowball, personnel director, requested the commissioners to rescind an action taken at the previous meeting of the commissioners. In that action, Mike McCandless was named to head up the planning and zoning commission. During the period following that appointment, there was some discrepancy to the responsibilities between the planning and zoning commissioner and the planning and zoning board. Commissioner Kofford expressed the need to rescind the appointment. The action was approved.
The Emery County Commissioners began the process to sell a 1.08 acre parcel of property. The estate of Lee McMullin has approached the commission to buy the property, which is a narrow portion that separates two parcels that belong to the estate.
Regulations state that before a piece of property can be sold, the commissioners must obtain a legal description of the land, obtain an appraisal, and have a title search completed on the property. Following the procedure to acquire these needed items, the county will advertise the property for sale, thus enabling any interested party to bid on the property. It was decided to insert a clause which states that all expenses incurred, including title search fees and any other fees, be entered into the minimum bid amount.
Green River Mayor Glen Dale Johnson was present at the meeting to ask for a reimbursement of fees incurred during the Green River Annexation. Green River City paid all of the bills in full and currently have not been reimbursed for the remaining $18,500. Commissioner Hatch read from previous commission meeting minutes dating back to June 18, 2001 where the commission made a partial payment of $15,000 and on June 18, 2002 another $10,000 was reimbursed to Green River. Mayor Johnson stated that Green River City paid all the annexation bills totaling $45,000, plus $3,000 to SunRise Engineering. Commissioner Hatch reminded the mayor that the county recorders office also incurred expenses relating to the annexation in dealing with land transfers.
Mayor Johnson reminded the commission that the transient room tax is generated in Green River and that the annexation has benefitted the county more than it has Green River City. Mayor Johnson has no recollection of ever saying that Green River City would be responsible for part of the annexation expenses. Mayor Johnson stated that in the annexation financial document which was prepared it stated that the annexing party would be responsible for all costs incurred. The commission stated they would have to review this document.
Commissioner Kofford said he had not been involved with the annexation at all because it was before his time. He made a motion to pay for half of the remaining costs in the amount of $9,250. "If it will ease the pain and settle the issue and get it off the plate, I'll make this motion," said Kofford. His motion died because Commissioner Sitterud did not second it.
"I can't second the $9,250 because I don't feel we owe it," said Commissioner Sitterud.
The next item was the final payment of $15,731 to Talon Resources as part of an incentive package for relocating their business in the county. Talon Resources has plans to construct a building of their own. Mike McCandless, county economic development director said the agreement stated the business would have five years to get their own building. It has been three years now. Commissioner Hatch stated he thought it was a bad deal for Emery County and for Huntington City. Commissioner Sitterud said he thought it was a good deal because Emery County picked up a business which had previously been located in Carbon County.
A business license was approved for McKette Allred for 6M Furniture a business where she orders furniture which is then delivered directly to the customer's residence.
The commission approved an ambulance write-off for an indigent elderly lady.
The commission will set a date for a county auction of surplus items this spring or early summer. The next commission meeting will be held on April 19 at 9 a.m.

Washington's cuts unfairly target military
Over the past few months there has been a lot of talk coming out of Washington about reducing the national debt, cutting spending and balancing the budget. But it seems that the only way our elected officials know how to balance spending is on the backs of those that fight to keep us free, the women and men of the national military.
The fact is there are places that we waste money that have not been addressed, and Congress continues to fund these areas of pork-belly spending year after year. This past year alone, Congress spent our hard earned tax dollars on a robotic squirrel, $325,000, to see how a rattlesnake would react to its wagging tail; $350,000 to help golfers improve their golf scores; $142,000 for free bus rides to the Super Bowl; and, $939,000 to see if male fruit flies preferred younger or older female fruit flies. This list could go on and on until we reach the billions of dollars, and we haven't mentioned the cost of talking urinal cakes, dancing rabbits for the IPhone and bridges to nowhere, all paid for with your tax dollars.
And while we are wasting money on what can only be called the unimaginable, we are telling 26 Mississippi Air National Guard airmen at the Combat Readiness Training Center in Gulfport that as of Sept. 30 of this year, they will no longer have a job or a career.
I have talked to some of these airmen and they are taking it in stride and making plans for the loss of a career and an income by putting their homes on the market. These airmen cannot go out and find comparable careers. They have chosen to serve something greater than themselves by serving in the Air Guard of Mississippi and yet their service is worth less than a fruit fly.
I have talked to my senators and my representatives to include the representatives from Gulfport and while they all have an explanation as to why these cuts are being made., none of them address why talking urinal cakes take priority over our service members.
We want the careers of these 26 men and women, Americans, Mississippians and service members to be made a priority. Please call your congressmen and tell him to save the jobs of these 26 Mississippi Air National Guard airmen at the Combat Readiness Training Center in Gulfport. I would love to hear from you. If you called please let me know by dropping me an email at email@example.com and just say, "I helped."

Posted on 05/07/2014 12:39:38 PM PDT by PoloSec
The truth can be dangerous. Some extremists will go to great lengths to keep the truth from coming out, even if that means threatening harm to United States Congressman Trey Gowdy.
Remember, it is Trey Gowdy who will be leading the House Select Committee into what really happened in Benghazi. Liberals fear that Gowdy, a highly successful prosecutor, will uncover the truth.
That is exactly why threats of harm have been made against Congressman Gowdy. Liberals want the truth to remain hidden so they can protect Obama and Hillary Clinton from facing the consequences of their actions.
POLITICO reports:
The U.S. Capitol Police are investigating threatening emails against Rep. Trey Gowdy, the South Carolina Republican recently tapped to lead a special panel probing the Benghazi terrorist attacks.
The investigation comes after POLITICO reporters and journalists at other outlets received two emails on Tuesday warning that Gowdy would be harmed because of his role in investigating the 2012 attacks.
The Capitol Police would not comment on the scope of the investigation but Officer Shennell Antrobus confirmed that there is an active, open investigation.
This is not the first time Gowdy has been threatened. As Politico also reported, In 2012, a woman approached Gowdy with a gun while he was sitting in his car in Spartanburg, S.C.
[H/T: Washington Times]
We hope the Capitol Police get to the bottom of these threats. This is a serious matter, both because Gowdy was threatened and because it was likely an attempt to dissuade him from getting to the truth.
Gowdy will not back down, and neither will we. Stay tuned for developments in this story.
If you support Congressman Gowdys investigation and think these threats against Gowdy are reprehensible, please like and share this on Facebook or Twitter!
Scared Shiiteless.
Will the quote: Something will happen to Rancher Gundy. by the BLMs Feudal Lord Reid now be expanded to include Representative Trey Gowdy?
Hopefully it will, and then Trey will have a legal threat link tying the BLM to Benghazi, for an ever-expanding investigation into the culture of brutality that defines the Obama Administration, and all the traitors to our Republic who still support Obama.
They must be terrified to go to these extremes. What in hell are they trying desperately to cover up? It must be simply disastrous and mortifying...............
Predictable. By the time 2015 comes around, the OBots will either be inebriated or their brains scattered like in the movie Scanners.
They already know the truth, that is why they are doing everything possible to cover this up. The left has known the truth since day 1, didnt take a genius to figure out exactly what happened in Benghazi and WHY it happened. I figured that out within 30 seconds of the attack..the left will do ANYTHING possible to save their messiah from impeachment..and they already know they are going to get their asses kicked in November..the Dem party is a party who knows their goose is cooked, this is how losers behave when they know the end is near
The "tolerant" liberal assassins seem to be following in the footsteps of their Muzzie idols.
IF the media were doing it's job, this nation would be so much better off. This type of thing would be relegated to the ash heap.
People can get away with anything these days. Moral relativism and the ends justifies the means have each worked their magic.
Not to mention you'd have to be a complete idjut to email a death threat to somebody and think law enforcement is not going to show up at your door.
Time to get the gallows setup & ready to go? Only thing in question is how many will they need to build? Sure sounds like somebody realizing the end is very near. For my part,I wish this would have happened a few years ago before it ever got this far.
Hey, this is just about sex. Oh wait, wrong Clinton.
They are a house of cards in the many many coverups and lies. All the Rs have to do is start holding the law over their heads and the Dems could be smashed as a party for a generation. They are out on long, weak limb begging to be chopped off all because they are supremely arrogant.
Their Coup d' Etat must succeed at all costs, even if it requires murder. Nothing new to see here. All despots do it.
The unhinged left once again proving that liberals should not be allowed to own firearms.
They let the Ambassador and the Seals get killed rather than allow The Ones reelection campaign be harmed because nothing is more important than The One. Wouldn't that be something if it could be proved.
But the GOP is attempting to pass amnesty to mitigate the effects of the mid terms.
Someone (ahem) better pray that not one white hair is disturbed in that honorable man head. There would be more hell to pay then even They could imagine !
The Communist ideology was hiding under a rock for a long time..once Obama showed up they knew they could come out of hiding and try to fulfill their agenda..it is our job to put them right back under the rocks where they belong. Now is our chance, in November..if we get the job done and take back the Senate the Communist pieces of dog poo will slither back underneath the rocks where they came from
It is the history of the World. Truth is Dangerous. "The Truth will set you Free. " The Bible is correct. Socrates was right about the Cave (and he was killed for stating truth). Jesus was killed for stating the Truth. The apostles were killed for the Truth. Christians are killed today for the Truth.
Anyone who DARES bring up the Truth is vilified, EVEN at Notre Dame University for proclaiming a Catholic Truth—about true marriage. Police marched pro-family people off of the campus of ND. (This is serious, folks. If the Satanists control the Catholic Church, we are in very serious trouble.)
Machiavelli stated it best-—that Lies are much more loved than Truth. No one wants to hear the truth-—except the most mature and educated and moral. People are not angels.
There is a cabal of Satanists who are trying to control all ideas and all speech—and they controlled the media since Edward Bernays, and are determined to create the proper perceptions in ALL minds and have controlled concepts in children since John Dewey. (Common Core is the Nail in the Coffin (guarantee it). If "group think" doesn't take over the minds of all the kids, they will drug or kill them. It is the godless mind of Sanger/Shaw/Ayers who control the perceptions in today's world (All MSM and schools and major publishing companies.)
We have to stop that too, otherwise the Dems will have power forever..The GOP for some reason thinks that if they give amnesty to these cockroaches, that these same roaches will vote Republican, its never going to happen..EVER..Dems will give these people free food, free housing, welfare, food stamps, health care, the works to keep them in their pocket and they will own them, for life..thats 20+ million new Dem voters, no need to rely on dead people anymore
Their gravy train is being threatened. We make the mistake of thinking that Democrats are just overly-agitated and boisterous fans of liberalism. That's not it. The purpose of the Democrat Party is to elect thieves to office so that they have access to public treasuries in order to loot them. Think about it. If somebody says my favorite tv show is no good, so what? If someone says they are going to blow up my business, I'm going to do something about it.
Every Democrat member of Congress should be required to go to diversity training.
"People can get away with anything these days. Moral relativism and the ends justifies the means have each worked their magic."
Indeed. And not just on the left. I paraphrase many here who said "We must vote for the lesser evil in order to win no matter what."
Words mean things.
Bring it on Dems. It's about time you got your comeuppance.
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
— Joseph Goebbels
The NAZI party was the national socialist party of Germany, this is the mentality of the left, nothing has change. They are the party of Hitler, Mao, Goebbels, Stalin, Lenin, etc... The truth is always their enemy.
I am really hoping that somehow, someway, we will get our hands on proof that they were planning to trade the kidnapped Ambassador for the Blind Sheikh. That they didn't call in the military because it might have interfered with the kidnapping. That the "video" story was a weak, panic-based, knee jerk reaction while scrambling to explain their inaction. And, most of all, I hope it all has the fingerprints of the One all over it.
Why the RINOs can't see this is beyond me. But then, they are RINOs who will probably do a Jumping Jeffords and switch to the Rat Party once they see that they have ridden the GOP elephant as far as they can.
This is just the beginning of the endless harassment similar to that Sarah Palin suffered at the hands of these Nazis and their agitation/propaganda `Ministry of Love'.
The weather underground used to discuss the "removal" of 20 million diehard capitalists from the new AmeriKa society. Years later a certain State Senate run was launched in their leaders living room. Bill Ayers hosted the initial political launch meeting for Barak Obama.
If anyone doubts that the left would hesitate to KILL their political opponents, remember the above information.
Killing political opponents is what leftists do. We have plenty of examples throughout history. The even wear an image of one of them on T-shirts....
Yesterday or the day before I asked how long it would take before the left starting trashing Gowdy. It didn't take long.
I dont like the name RINOS..to me it sounds too cute..I prefer to call Republicans who have that liberal thinking be called Progressives, because that is what they are, leftists with an R next to their name..either they truly believe that giving amnesty to illegals will help them get votes or they just want to help out the Rat party, not sure what their thinking is
To establish and maintain fascism, totalitarianism, and despotism, critics have to be silenced, and the media has to be controlled.
"Now is our chance, in November"
Our chance is NOW in the primaries. We lost one last night, but we have a few more. The primary season will be very telling as to the future of this country. It will either be a DC central ruling party direction or it will be back to liberty for the people.
The Capitol Police investigated Ft. Marcy Park and you see how that came out.
Yes..., they do.
We played the lesser of two evils so long, we got a lot of it on both sides.
Within hours all the leftist commentators will find something bad to say about him. They will pay operatives who work at tax offices to illegally look up private information on him, and leak it to the press, which will gobble it up and put it on the front page.
Someone will go find his third grade teacher to ask if he was a bully.
The republic is in great danger from the democrat party and the media.
Need a militia present at the hearings? They would be more dedicated than what he already has...
The result of which we complain about daily. I am not sure how so many here never put the two together, because one led directly to, and is responsible for the other.
I will never understand how anyone gets to the place in their minds that in order to fix the greater evil, you add more lesser evils when all the lesser evils created the greater to begin with. The only thing more lesser evil leads to is Cuthulu since it reinforces the evil already there. AKA Greatest evil.
The liberals are afraid of Mr. Gowdy finding out the truth and exposing the CIC for what he really is - a foreign plant and a traitor. Get ready for the race baiting extravaganza of the century.
Interesting how we've morphed from James Carville's vile public verbal assaults on Ken Starr to public death threats against Gowdy. The Party of Evil marches on.
This has never been credibly explained and is the key to the whole cover-up.
You know Norm, it's why I try to get people to open their minds before the primaries. It is amazing the number of people who go "all/in", before they know tenet one, of the candidate's policies.
They hear populist sound-bites, and they confuse that with policy. "Why this sounds so good. They must have sound policies!" Well no, that's not guaranteed at all.
I'm going round and round with someone on this issue right now.
Remember when John McCain said he wasn't for amnesty. Sure enough the McCain/Kennedy bill had amnesty, for all intents and purposes, in it.
Some candidates flat ass lie. They'll deny it until hell freezes over, bu they do.
We really need to stop playing along with the populist game plan.
George Orwell also had something to say about it:
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
Scared Shiiteless.
Or scared Obamaless.
What to you expect when an agent of the Muslim Brotherhood is in the White House?
"- - - - get to the bottom of - - - -"
For strict adherence to The HE-WHO Transparency Executive Order, it must be fully disclosed that this is a phrase-quote taken directly from the Obama Community Organizer's Handbook, commonly known as OCOH.
OCOH clearly lists a partial list of the desired effects of "getting to the bottom" of a useful crisis as follows:
* Attention will be directed away from HE-WHO that chose which crisis-of-the-day is worthy of his arrogant attention, usually requiring a teleprompter set, but often just the simple use of a pen or a phone;
* Before those at the bottom are partially found out, they must receive a severe tongue-lashing by HE-WHO, using all manner of vile accusations, including, but not limited to, the most hated of all phrases: making BONEHEADED Decisions;
* Before the crisis is incompletely resolved, Executive Orders must be put in place by HE-WHO himself "TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN!"
* Additional inquiry into this phony crisis by The Enemies of Obamanation, must be clearly labeled as "political football," or in persistent cases the ultimate PC Label White Guilt/Shame Word "Racists."

Canadians lead Bled, Slovenia volleyball team to Champions League final six
MACERATE, Italy – Canadian national men's team coach Glenn Hoag of Gatineau, Que., devised the strategy and Dan Lewis of Oakville, Ont., directed traffic as ACH Volley Bled earned a thrilling five-set victory over Macerate, Italy to advance to the Final six tournament in the men's volleyball Champions League.
The Champions League tournament determines to the top professional volleyball team in Europe. Bled took the two-hour long match 25-23, 17-25, 20-25, 25-19, 15-12.
"We have a young team but very strong," said Hoag, Canada's national team coach since 2006 who has guided Bled the past two seasons as well. "I am really happy for the result and for this qualification, especially because we got it against one of the most important clubs in the world."
Lewis, a 33-year-old Canadian national team veteran, played the Libero position and made 29 receptions. The libero is essentially the captain of team defence, and is responsible for organizing the other players on the court in serve-reception and during regular play.
Bled now faces Innsbruck in a two match series to be scheduled for early next month. The three winners advance to the final four tournament on April 10-11 in Lodz, Poland. The host team will be the fourth squad in the tournament.

Let me be the first to wish you well in whatever forum you go to after being kicked off this one.
I zot thee.
Is that you, Senator McCain?
I see troll!
Mmmm, bye-bye.
Its the last pleasure left to me.
May all the people you've had as trusted friends betray you and your secret conversations. I mean that. Are you one of those who wished the other Hussein was back in office?
Let us play with this one!
I would agree, if he weren't being paid by Soros to say it. ;)
What is a prision?
Prepare to be smited.
.....you hippy faggot.
Actually, it is more likely that he is nothing more than a media-wh*re, looking to cash in on the current BDS syndrome. He is simply retelling his version of old news, with an anti-bush slant that he know will sell.
IBTZ! (a-hole)
IBTZ! (a-hole)

G'bye, idjit.
I would like to see him explain how whistleblower laws apply before he gets zapped.
David Brock, is that you? Have you enjoyed carnal relations with Scott McClellan yet? Does he send a tingle up your leg ala Chrissy Matthews and Obama? ZOT!
Buh bye
The word would be imprison...
Yeah, he's a wonderful guy. Instead of speaking up five years ago (assuming he's telling the truth now; a dubious assumption at best), he decides to wait until he can sell a book. Meanwhile, he allows a war to start and continue built upon what he says are lies.
Some hero.
I bet you've blown your share whistles, haven't you....
Prison for life.
Not going to happen here, Stalin. Build your gulag somewhere else.
Funny how he joined today.
How's that moonbat site KOS running for you?
No its the tinfoil over his ears.
Multimedia man: Your first, and last, post.
Goodbye, they're waiting for you back at Commie Underground.
OK, then let me ask you, what whistle did he blow?
That would imply that he actually knows what he is talking about silly!
Fat man in a lil coat!
Fat man in a lil coat!

For years, battling high blood pressure meant throwing out the salt shaker and throwing on the sweatpants. We now know that there's more to the picture.
Exercise and maintaining a healthy weight have always been powerful tools for managing high blood pressure. But recent studies are showing that a number of food choices – not just salt – play a large role in your blood pressure levels. In fact, following a particular eating plan called the "DASH" diet, along with decreasing your sodium intake, can lower your blood pressure.
So if you're specifically targeting high blood pressure, you can easily follow DASH diet principles and use them right along with your SparkDiet plan. You can even use the same tracking and planning tools. Simply keep these principles and strategies in mind when planning your meals and groceries.
What is the DASH diet?
Whether you are trying to reduce your risk of developing high blood pressure or want to bring an existing condition under control, the DASH principles and SparkDiet plan can work together to help. Designed by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) plan can help protect against osteoporosis, cancer, and heart disease. The healthy rewards are great with the SparkDiet and DASH combination. Continued ›

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.

A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.

- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

As a followup to my blog post for VivMag.com, about why women over 30 write better eBooks, here's a list of the top female indie Authors worth following on Twitter, and definitely worth reading.
I was fascinated with how each of these women market themselves. Some have many books, others have very few. Some are wild about Twitter, and some are not. They use tools like video and podcasting to help get their eBooks out there. Their pricing is all over the map. And if you follow each of them carefully, you'll learn more about their writing style, their attitudes about their business, and how that plays into their success.
In no particular order…

The amazing display of flags, open Friday evening, Sept. 10 through Monday, Sept. 13, is free to the public and will fly as a tribute to the heroes we all wish to honor and remember. Come walk through our field and feel with us the love of our fellow soldiers and country."
City business included: "The flood we had hit the golf course pretty bad," said Ferron Mayor JoAnn Behling. "The crew up there has done a marvelous job of clean up and needed repairs. Gratefully the new part of the golf course was not damaged very badly. It could have been a lot worse, it only needs some minor repairs."
She added most of the damage was done to existing holes and the worst damage was on hole number six. Mayor Behling reported the clean up and mud removalfrom the greens and fairways is well underway.
Mayor Behling reported the internet installation for the buildings at the golf course should be completed sometime in the next few days. Councilman Mike Behling said he would follow up to ensure all is completed with that project.
Councilman Joe Trenery reported on the Southeastern Utah Junior Livestock Show. He said the show was well attended, and during the follow up meeting by the stock show committee, it was decided to help with installation of restrooms at the site. The committee will provide funds for construction and volunteers to do the work.
Councilman Garrett Hansen reported on the night golf tournament at the golf course. He said the committee cleared $704 dollars to help with work and improvements at the golf course. "Most all of the golfers had such a good time they requested this tournament be an annual thing," Hansen said. "This was a really fun time," he concluded. Hansen also reported the cart path on hole number seven is in need of repair and those repairs should not be complicated or expensive. During the winter months, the crew will be working on removing many of the rocks from the hills on hole number four to try to eliminate the time spent looking for lost balls.
The board of equalization presented two issues with water bills and both were approved. Councilman Ronny Bloomer reported one business license has been issued. He also requested there be signs installed at the fairgrounds to eliminate the dumping of grass clippings at that site.
Greg Killpack, representing his company, FAH, LLC., seeking preliminary approval from the council to continue work on the Canyon Subdivision on Canyon Road. He showed the council the plans for the subdivision with the delineated lots and the existing sewer/water/power connections.
"I would like to know about the animal rights on this property. Do they transfer over to the potential buyers?" asked Killpack. Mayor Behling explained the city ordinances concerning animals and the potential buyers would be responsible to check with the city for the personal needs in that area.
Killpack said all lots would be sold as is, and those with the existing utility connections would be fully disclosed to the buyers. Those without connections would also be fully disclosed. Mayor Behling asked Killpack to write a letter to the city stating that no more than nine lots would be sold and they would be sold by meets and bounds. Killpack agreed. The council approved the subdivision.
Brody Humphrey requested the council approve a walk-a-thon be held just prior to the dinner at Peach Days. He explained the route through Ferron and the money raised will be used to raise awareness of prescription drug abuse in the area. "The walk will be named Walk Away From Prescription Drugs, and we would like to make this an annual thing," said Humphrey.
"I think this sounds like a good thing. This is a wonderful idea," said Mayor Behling. The council approved the walk-a-thon. It will begin at 5 p.m. just prior to the dinner at the Peach Days celebration in September.
The city council members proceeded to prioritize the list of needs for curb/gutter/road projects to be completed by the Castle Valley Special Service District. This list will be submitted to the district for the work to be started next summer.
The council approved an annexation request for Chase and Chelsea Behling. This request has been through planning and zoning and has met with their approval. It was determined this annexation is in the city's plan and was approved.
It was approved to purchase 150 folding chairs to be used during the Peach Days dinner and celebration. These chairs will be used with the new tables purchased last year. In addition to the outdoor seating at the dinner, these tables and chairs will be used inside the building, too.
An interlocal agreement between CVSSD and Ferron City was approved. This agreement specifies what projects can be done with the 15 percent of the class B and C road funds which Ferron City gives to the district each year. It was also approved to give the funds to the district.

This morning, just before I started writing this, one of the employees of the paper carried in a muffin with a sparkler on it, lit it and we all sang Happy Birthday to another employee. It was touching. We at the newspaper, are a family. Sometimes a dysfunctional one, but one nonetheless.
Ever since I was a kid I have worked with my family. For the first two decades of my life, I worked on the family farm with my dad and my two uncles. Later I had businesses where my wife worked with me and one of my sons was involved as well.
But that is only my blood family. I have also had a lot of adopted families to work with. Some of those I still cling to in some little way; others I have forsaken; some I have divorced. In a sense we adopt a family (or they adopt us) when we go to work anywhere. I have been places where we were so close to one another that we knew every flaw, every tribulation of those in the group.
At other workplaces distance was the order of the day. We were civil and polite, but the family was not as close. My wife always says that in my early life I led a Leave It To Beaver kind of existence. My family seemed perfect to her from all I have said about them. Well I doubt Ward Cleaver ever hiked a bale of hay onto a wagon or cleaned out the corral in the spring when it was wet and there was two feet deep in muck in it. My father was not Ward Cleaver; he was better than that. I wish I could have become as good a man as he was, but I have never quite lived up to that level.
However a lot of the things he instilled in me have lived on, particularly in my work life. I like to think him making me work all those summers when my friends were out having fun did something for me. One thing he taught me was that family, even a work family, is very important.
Work families should take care of one another. Sure there will always be that bad brother or sister. But we need to care for one another just the same. This group I work with here at the newspaper has all the attributes of greatness. Dedication, hard work, loyalty, I could go on and on.
But like all groups we are not perfect either. We squabble once in awhile, just like kids at home. Sometimes I'm the parent that has to get things under control; sometimes I am one of the kids that throws a fit.
Putting together a newspaper a couple of times a week is somewhat like an assembly line job. However, not all of the pieces fit together as neatly as they do when you put together a piece of furniture or an automobile. And sometimes we are missing pieces too. At times pieces that were due earlier in the day come in late and we have to bolt them up, while tearing other things down. And you thought things probably always went together so smoothly at the newspaper. Unfortunately anyone who wants a clean and tidy process operation to work in would find this to be anything but that.
Yet somehow through all the stress, all the hang ups, all the changes in the middle of a production day, in the end we are still all alive with most of our limbs (and sanity) intact.
Last week we had a party honoring our employees.
We sell and design hundreds of ads, take thousands of photos and write dozens of stories to fill the pages of the paper. We crank out information that is important to the community and the world. We write both counties histories every time we publish the papers. Unlike much of the electronic media we see and hear each day, ours is enshrined on the white stuff made from wood fibers, that lasts longer than most people realize when it is taken care of. Our photos and stories linger in peoples minds, in peoples diaries, scrapbooks and on their refrigerator doors.
I am always amazed at what this group of people can do.
These people I call my family.
