Sobel's visit began with an admonition from Gary that he broke his word that he would visit the studio wearing clothes by IJP Design (Poulter's clothing company). The most noteworthy thing about the matches so far to Jason is the performance of the duo of Mickelson and Furyk. After Mickelson declined to say on Morning Drive who he wanted to team with, he is surprised to see he and Furyk playing so well despite the fact that they had only played together one time since 1997 before this week (1999 Ryder Cup).
Tiger Woods is 0-2-0 despite actually playing some good golf this week. Neither Steve Stricker on Day One nor Dustin Johnson on Day Two have done much to help Tiger. In text messages with Tiger's instructor Sean Foley, Foley was amazed how quickly people proclaim Tiger is back and then proclaim that he is not back. But that is just the way it is with Tiger. He felt it was interesting that Int'l Captain Greg Norman followed the Tiger match the entire time and feels that it is a big focus of the Int'l team to make sure that they defeat Tiger Woods in his matches.
He does not see how Ernie Els and Ryo Ishikawa are still together with how they have performed in Day One and Day Two. He did acknowledge that there may be something that Norman sees that he and others do not. It is also a surprise that Norman is keeping the Australians separated for the most part this week as Sobel thinks that the separation is costing the International team some momentum and crowd energy. For Day Three, he thinks that the local crowds will be behind both Ogilvy-Allenby and Baddeley-Day and it will be interesting to see the effect of the local crowds on those matches.
Wake up and smell the fairway each day with Morning Drive.

Big Love Review: "Til Death Do Us Part"
Wow! What a crazy episode.
With only so many more installments left before this show comes to a final close, I knew we'd be in for a ride, but I wasn't expecting such a wild one in "Til Death Do Us Part."
Was I the only one that didn't catch Heather's involvement in the implementation of the investigation against Bill until the end of the hour? Who was that man that Heather was talking to? Her father?
Now that the police have taken Barb in for questioning, what do you think she will say? The final scenes before the police came showed us that she wasn't exactly thrilled to find out that her sister-wives and Bill were going through with their resealment with out her.
I was shocked to find out that Bill, Nikki, and Margene would go forward in that regard. How could she not feel betrayed? The question that is now at hand would be whether or not she will use this betrayal to seek vengeance on Bill.
You kind of have to feel bad for Barb. Not only did she have to give up her legal rights as Bill's wife, but no one wanted to take her interest into being a priesthood holder seriously. It's pretty clear that as more time goes by, Barb is breaking further away from the family. I wouldn't be surprised when the series ends, so will Barb's marriage to them all.
Carolynn and her teacher have taken their relationship to a pretty serious level. She really isn't the brightest crayon in the box, is she? Why would she be so obviously flirt with her teacher at her mother's wedding? Someone was bound to pick up on it - and that someone was Margene. Will Margene tell Nikki or Bill what she saw?
Margene may feel a twisted type of kinship with Carolynn and, instead of doing what is right, I bet she will try to figure out how to fix this morally wrong situation without involving Bill.
Last week, when Rhonda kissed Ben, we were left unsure what would happen next. This week, we found out that these two slept together. Sleeping with Ronda was probably the dumbest thing Ben could do. Like what Nikki previously pointed out, Rhonda is toxic. Only bad things can come out of this situation and I bet Heather will not stick around once she finds out what extracurricular activities Ben was up to when they weren't together.
Lois proved that although she may be losing her mind, she is still as crazy as ever. Frank fell and instead of helping him, she left him there so that they wouldn't be taken away. Once Frank finally got the medical attention he needed, Lois again tried to kill him by stuffing a bunch of pills down his throat. Talk about a love/hate relationship. These two are so out there that it's hard to understand where they are coming from.
Alby showed Bill that he is not messing around. Well, not messing around in going after Bill. He is going in for the kill and wants Bill to pay. Taking Home Plus is just the tip of the iceberg. This showdown is going to be nothing less than epic.

And now Barb is no longer legal wife so she can be forced to testify against Bill in a court of law.
February 28th, 2011 6:11 AM
This weeks episode was very well written and executed brilliantly. Here's my two cents: Nicki was dressed up in modern clothes because she's leaving the compound behind. This season she has new hair and manner of dress. She will be legally married to Bill, and she's turned a blind eye to Cara Lynn. Nicki is as manipulative as ever, and I believe she is going to push Barb (and most likely Marge) out of the marriage. The changes that her character has made is a statement about how the outside world corrupts.
I caught that Heather was being used to get information on Bill. The way the scene was staged and the sudden interest the bishop had in the conversation tipped me off. However, Heather wanted to spill the beans. It's why she went to the bishop to begin with. She doesn't agree with polygamy, and I think she subconsciously wants the Hendricksons to get caught.
Heather will be hurt that Ben slept with Rhonda; however, when Ben finds out Heather has been chatty about his -
February 28th, 2011 1:55 AM
Why don't any of the sister wives tell Nicky that her dresses and hair look awful? She looked much better and had more character in her "prairie dress."
So, again Barb takes the fall for something she didn't do...when the cops were watching the tape of Margene going on and on about how Barb kept her from running away from their marriage, you knew she would get nailed for something.
Now that Bill divorced Barb and married Nicky in order to adopt Cara Lynn, will Cara Lynn run off with the teacher making the marriage unnecessary? -
February 28th, 2011 12:33 AM
Ben isn't a virgin. I can't remember the season, but he had a girlfriend and they got busy.

Fire flickering through carved Jack-O-Lanterns, sweets teeming over the edge of your goodie bag, a menagerie of costumed characters strolling past you on the street; yes, something wicked this way comes! But before you wrap Rover in a pumpkin jumpsuit remember this, the same things we often look forward to most on Halloween can seem frightening to pets and may prove to be dangerous as well. But don't dismay – by taking just a few precautions you can share one of your favorite holidays with your pets and make sure they have a safe and exciting time.
We check IDs - ID tags and microchips keep your pet safe
Between the constant opening and closing of the door and all the excitement in the house and on the block, it is fairly common for cats and dogs to pull a runner, to try to get away from all the action. If your pet does escape, having a collar with an ID tag, or better yet, a microchip, will greatly increase the odds of finding them.
Sugar rush - bad for people, worse for dogs
For cats and dogs chocolate is a definite no-no, as is anything containing Xylitol. But sugar should be limited in general as it can still cause a stomachache and enforce unhealthy habits for your pet. Better to stock up on some dog or cat treats and give them out to your pet and others making the rounds.
Fire and wires and lights, oh my!
Any holiday that features lots of candles and lights has to be closely monitored by pet parents. Cats are particularly at risk with candles because of their tendency to explore. Dogs, the curious chewers of the pet world, need to be kept away from wires which can cause burns or electrical shock when chewed.
Costumes for dogs
Dressing your kids in the latest blockbuster movie costume is kind of cute but transforming your cat or dog into a pirate is downright adorable. Just remember, don't sacrifice your pet's comfort for a chuckle. To ensure your pet's costume is comfortable have them try it on prior to the big night and gauge their reaction – if they're trying to tear it off it's no good. If your trick-or-treater is not feeling the sunglasses and leather jacket then settle for a nice bandanna around their neck.
Aahhh, people are scary
Your cat or dog might be used to people but that doesn't mean they are used to people dressed as swamp monsters or masked vigilantes. The most important thing to remember about ensuring your pet's safety is to monitor their behavior and make sure they are comfortable throughout the evening.
With a little bit of care you can ensure a spookily magical evening for your pets and set a happy precedent for years to come. So here's wishing you a Happy Halloween, pet parents, and if you happen to have a black cat sit back and relax – your decorations are covered.

My co-workers loved these caramels. I had a tough time getting them to set properly, so I froze them and they were great.
I had such high hopes for this recipe despite the mixed reviews. My issue wasn't with the prep/time allotment as most recipes take longer than the stated time. Couldn't find dark corn syrup so substituted with molasses. Otherwise, followed recipe to a tee. It would have been helpful for recipe to include set time. I allowed it to cool to room temp (about 5 hours and found it too soft, so I covered the pan with foil and refrigerated overnight, hoping it would harden. Flavor is outstanding (reminiscent of traditional Korean yut candy. But the candy never set as per other reviewers and was super gooey. Still, I wrapped the rolls in parchment paper hoping that it would continue to set. Few hours later, I unwrapped to find it a sticky spread out mess...but tasty.
I made the caramels on 10-26-07. This was my first attempt at making candy. The first stage I could get the caramel up to the correct temperature, but after adding the pumpkin it was really hard to get it to the correct temperature. The caramel set but it was really soft and sticky. Most of the people that tried it didn't like the pumpkin seed texture. Maybe shelled pumpkin seeds would have been better.
quantities small so that all my thick bottomed pans were too big - only the very tip of my candy thermometer was covered. Also, like a previous reviewer, the pumpkin burns easily trying to get it back up to temp. Otherwise, everything went well, had no problem setting up and it was the consistency I like for carmels, buttery, soft and chewey.

Things started off well, got to the first temp point ok. After adding the pumpkin, however, I couldn't get the mixture hot enough without burning it -- and I've never burned anything in my heavy steel pans before. Finally, after changing pans and cooking it over an HOUR I got the temp up to 148+ and gave up there.
The final result is tasty, but too soft. I don't know if I'd try this again, the pumpkin puree is too susceptible to burning. Maybe as plain caramel with pumpkin seeds it would work better. -
This was such a pain to get right. I made 3 batches in 3 different pans on 2 different stoves before finally getting it to work and what finally worked for me may not work for you. I used a non-stick pan (NOT stainless, heavy bottomed-they didn't work for me, and did everything as directed but 248 degrees wasn't warm enough to get the caramel to set. So I put the block back into the pan the next day and heated it back up to ~270 and mixed everything together (used chopped pecans instead of pumpkin seeds and when I checked it the next day it was firm and tasted good. If I make it again it should be a piece of cake but there is a lot of trial and error involved with this recipe, I think.
It sounded fantastic, but I could not get the caramel to the soft ball stage with the pumpkin and in the end the pumpkin and caramel weren't such a great combination of flavors.

What a TREAT!!! I will say this: Make absolutely SURE your temps reach the appropriate levels in order to ensure the candy sets up. I got a bit impatient and pulled my pot off the heat a little before 248 degrees before adding the pumpkin and it never set and I cooled it all night. So I put it back in the pot the next morning and cooked it to the required temp and it set up perfectly. I then cut it and wrapped the squares in waxed paper. They ARE addicting!! Your house will smell heavenly!
Well, I've tried making these two times, and each time they never set up. Too soft to cut... kind of gooey. I even tried cooking the mixture, with the pumpkin, up to the firm ball temperature on the second try, but still no luck. I'm so sad -- it smells so good! Other folks have seemed to have no trouble at all. Maybe bringing the mixture all the way up to hard ball stage would do the trick?? Can I throw it all back in the pot and reheat it, or is it too late? Maybe my candy thermometer's no good. Argh.
Flavor was very good - you can definitely taste the pumpkin. These went over very well at a Christmas party. As a result of the pumpkin, these do not have a perfectly silky smooth texture like plain caramels. The recipe is a bit flawed - cooking it to soft ball stage only (the final step was not sufficient. The caramels were far too soft to hold a shape, even after well cooled. I threw it all back in the pot and brought it to firm ball stage. That did the trick. Overall, a yummy recipe. For those who complain about how long it took - you are making homemade candy. Of course it will take awhile. Read through a recipe beforehand and figure out how long it will take you to do each step. Don't simply trust the summary.

Bye Bye KL!
Exactly 2 and a half years ago, I was sobbing my way from KK to KL, unsure of the friends I would make and sadden by what I had to leave behind. During those years I endured the stupidest and craziest of things....- I jumped off a bus by accident....long story
- I dated weird men...from not bathing before a date to hole in clothes (in MVM) all the way to a guy who dated me just to add to the list of names
- Invaded 3 of my good friends homes
- Made bad and good decisions and still not have the guts to try tequila..akkaka
Now, I'm back in KK about to end my KL supreme life and to move far from people I adore and love.....and go study and try to start my next steps of life in Perth. My transition from modern open civilization to my hippy-save the hormones-environmentalist of the human body parents...is not going well. I must have heard these 2 words "Unhealthy Lifestyle" like a zillion times since I landed just a few 36 hours ago...if my calculation is right.
Sadly, I left behind a few unresolved issues and am hoping that time will heal it all. Maybe some might not understand the issues and blame me for my ice cold approach but I do not have the heart to ruin such confidence in oneself and their passion and love for life.
Whichever way it goes...I have no right to any other life but my own. It's like owning you own shoes...hell I'm not going to put my feet into your stinky sole...okie...the crudest way to put it...but only you can put up with the stink from your own shoe....and that's the way with life I guess....only you decide your next step and only you have to face the consequences....no matter how much saliva I sprinkle on your face during the "counseling sessions".
But I do miss everyone in KL...the wonderful friends I made...the wonderful people I met...the hearts that touched my life....
Thank you for the experiences that are unforgettable....

Aloha Awaits You! Maui's Wailea Ekahi Ocean View Condo Rental #32C
Sleep up to 6 in Ekahi Village Resort, Wailea, Maui, Hawaii Condo Photos | Wailea Map | Village Site Plan | Contact Us | Availability |
Welcome to
Keawakapu beach is reached via a locked gate at our ocean front pool. It is nearly 1 mile long but is extended at the south end by Wailea's 2 mile ocean front board walk. |
Swimming, snorkeling, scuba, ocean kayaking, tennis , golf, sunning, shopping, good food - it's all here within a 5 minute drive or short stroll from our condo.
Our vacation home at this luxury Wailea resort has a spectacular ocean view and a wonderfully quiet location on Ekahi's greenbelt.
The condominium is spacious (1500 sf with 3 lanai's), sleeps six comfortably and is located in the upper levels of a 2 level building. See our FLOORPLAN
View of living room from entry - this space opens to one of our 3 lanais where we eat a lot - the gas grill gets plenty of use. |
View our CONDO PHOTOS.
What I enjoy the most about having a condo on Maui is getting into a routine each day and being in an environment that really takes any stress away.
I enjoy getting up each morning at sunrise and heading to the beach and on to the boardwalk. I walk past the Grand Wailea and Four Seasons resorts to Wailea Point and return, stopping for a bagel and guava smoothie on the way back. I usually spot several large sea turtles off the rocks along the way.
I end up with a swim in the ocean in front of Ekahi and then it's off to the Emerald course for some Golf! I also enjoy all the great restaurants, especially Chez Paul. On our quiet Wailea side, Maui still feels like an island. Low rise buildings and beautiful tropical plantings with plenty of swaying palms and much less traffic than other parts of the island all combine to create that sense of peace in paradise I love.
We're still adding finishing touches but our Ekahi condo is fast becoming our Maui home. When we're not on island you can usually find us at home in California or traveling else where. We stay in touch where ever we are in the world so do contact us with questions you might have.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2013 Nissan Armada
By KBB.com Editors
When the Nissan Armada first debuted in 2004, full-size SUVs were all the rage and it commanded a premium price. Fast-forward to the 2009 model year, and the looming specter of five-dollar-per-gallon gasoline has changed the landscape. Still, for those undaunted by $100-plus refills, the Armada has much to offer. It features a powerful V8 engine capable of running on regular gas or E85, a tow rating of up to 9,100 pounds and enough interior room to fit eight passengers and their luggage. The Armada's unconventional styling may not be to everyone's liking, but its long list of creature comforts and standard safety features are certainly attractive, as are Nissan's enticing customer incentives.
If your kids are all about high-tech gadgetry and love on-board toys, the Armada has you covered. An exceptionally powerful V8 is standard – great news for those who need to tow. Standard safety features include side-curtain airbags for all three rows.
Did we mention this thing is big? The Armada can be a handful to park in tight spaces, though not any more difficult than its competitors. The fuel economy may also be a discouraging factor, and there is no diesel engine option.
Last year's LE Preferred Package, which features heated seats, power rear quarter windows, power folding mirrors and Bluetooth, is now standard on the LE. Also standard on the LE is the tow package, which includes a seven-pin wiring harness, 3.357:1 axle ratio, larger battery and auto-leveling rear suspension.
Driving Impressions On the road you'll find the Armada behaves more like a midsize truck than the gargantuan SUV it really is. The steering feel is taut and the Armada's short front...
overhang makes it possible to maneuver around closer corners with confidence. So long as the road remains fairly smooth the Armada maintains a very livable ride, but upon the first encounter with large dips or shaky, uneven pavement, the Armada's truck-oriented roots quickly become more evident. In any case, once you feel the power that the Armada's standard 5.6-liter V8 provides, you'll quickly forget any minor shudder or momentary vibration you've just encountered. With a whopping 317 horsepower on tap, the Armada does not lack for performance or towing power.Rear Seat Design
The Armada's versatile rear-seat design includes fold-flat seats that create a level loading floor.
Standard Head-Curtain Airbags
The Armada's standard head-curtain airbags cover all three rows of seating.
Nissan offers the spacious Armada with an excellent set of optional second-row captain's chairs that are separated by a removable center console. With the console out, passengers are granted easy access to the third-row seat without having to disturb those already seated in the second row. The rear-most bench seat rests on an elevated platform that allows its occupants to see over the heads of those up front. With the seats folded, there is room for quite lengthy items of cargo, even with the rear hatch closed. Safety features include side-curtain air bags covering all three rows.
ExteriorThe Armada is one of the most ornate SUVs we've seen. It has a raised roof, arched door frames and huge side fender flares. The rear-door handles are placed high up, making them difficult for small children to reach. Short front and rear overhangs make the Armada a bit easier to maneuver than some of its competition. The broad expanse of glass allows for good 360-degree visibility, and the big side mirrors do a good job of revealing smaller objects near the Armada's sides. On LE models, these same mirrors are available with power folding and auto-dimming features. The LE also comes with 20-inch wheels that look great but can be pricey if needing replacement.
The Armada has a 317-horsepower V8 engine, five-speed automatic transmission with tow/haul mode, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), front and rear air conditioning, floor- and ceiling-mounted consoles, Vehicle Dynamic Control, rear privacy glass, dual power heated outside mirrors, power windows, power locks, remote keyless entry, power-adjustable pedals, AM/FM stereo with six-disc in-dash CD changer with MP3 capability, front and rear head-curtain airbags (covering all three rows), running boards, eight-way power driver's seat, cruise control, tire-pressure monitor and a rear wiper and washer.
Options vary by trim and include four-wheel drive, rear-seat DVD entertainment, front side-impact airbags, heated leather steering wheel, Intelligent Key with twist start, navigation, RearView Monitor, power glass moon roof, heated leather seats, power passenger seat, power folding 60/40 third-row seat, XM Satellite Radio, Bose audio and a tow package.
Nissan equipped the Armada with its most powerful V8 engine and the results are impressive. Tow rated at 9,100-pounds (with the available Tow Package), the Armada credits itself well in maximum towing capacity among lighter-duty, full-size SUVs.

"I just purchased an 08 Armada couple weeks ago and love it. Did plenty of research on other vehicles before my purchase and decided to pursue the Armada. Its huge, roomy, and just feel safe in it. I have a newborn so safety and room were my selling points. Oh and this thing has plenty of power however that power eats gas so its not excellent on gas economy but I knew that before purchasing. If MPG is important to you, then you may need to look elsewhere. Also with the SUV high off the ground, much of the maintenance can be done yourself (oil, transmission, etc). Other than that I totally recommend the Armada."

"Bought our 2006 in 2009 and still have it with no intent to sell it. This SUV is the safest vehicle I have ever owned. It is not that great on gas but the comfort and safety it offers are well worth a little extra fuel cost and I should mention that if you are light on the gas pedal it is not so bad. I have used this vehicle for work everyday as well as on long trips. My husband loves it for its power. We have pulled a 33 foot camper weighing in at 8000lbs all over the East Coast and barely knew it was there all while carrying 7 passengers. I'm not sure about other vehicles in the same class but I am satisfied with this one enough that I really have no interest in finding out. My kids are safe when in this vehicle and to me that's enough to make me recommend it to anyone!"

"My 2011 Armada is now my second Armada. I had a 2008 Armada, and when I had only 4000 miles on it, I was rear ended by an 18 ton water tanker. I basically walked away with a 30 minute emergency room quick check, all due to the largeness of the Armada. I believe it saved my life. My 2011 Armada is almost perfect. A few minor issues that needed to be worked on but overall the Armada has been fantastic. I've owned a Sequoia>(big mistake), a Trooper, a Pathfinder, a 2008 Armada and now a 2011 Armada. And the Armada wins hands down. Maybe some day I can afford the Platinum model. Who knows?"

"WOW what a car. I live in Washington State and it rains a lot in here. I had Ford Explorer and when you drive on freeway when it rains if you catch pot hole filled with water your car is slowing down a little or you have to catch the stearing wheel, with ARMADA there is no problems it drives like a champ, and its Japanese car and they last long. If you have to pick SUV for your family from Escalade, Mercedes, GMC, Infiniti, BMW, Toyota and many more, Nissan Armada would be the top one I would pick. Because of the price, comfort, and durability."

"I bought my 2007 Armada used in 2007 with 30,000 miles on it. In the 5 years that I have owned it I have never been broken down or had a major problem. I recently had to replace a wheel bearing on the front passenger side, but after countless road trips all over the eastern seaboard, I can't complain to much. It has been the most reliable vehicle I, or anyone I know, has ever owned. I know that my family is safe and secure inside this massive tank and it gives me piece of mind when I or my husband is on the road in it. Most of my friend can't believe how long I've had it, how I've never had problems with it, and how it is so unbelievably comfortable to ride in but still so beautiful from the outside. As another reviewer said, I will be driving this until the wheels fall off....and then I will buy another Armada."

Why Is The Media Treating Mitt Romney As The Incumbent?
At Breitbart, Joel Pollak notes the success the left and their friends in the media have had at turning this election from a referendum on President Obama's performance over these last four years into a referendum on Mitt Romney as the representation of everything the left hates:
Romney's so-called "gaffes" have one thing in common: they are all statements of fact. He is being held to a presidential standard–for presidents should know better than to tell all–while Obama's outright lies to the nation (on Libya, the debt, etc.) are ignored by the media.
Obama's failures as the actual incumbent are also passed over–or spun into positives. We reached 2,000 dead in Afghanistan? Hey, Obama "ended the war." Unemployment still above 8 percent? Oh, that jobs report was "better than expected." We were attacked by Al Qaeda on 9/11, and Obama lied about it? Don't worry, "bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive." Growth down to 1.3%? Say–"No one could have done it better."
That last canard came to us courtesy of former President Bill Clinton, who returned to the political scene to disown his own political legacy after Obama had spent the past four years destroying it, and his entire political career fighting it. The expansion of the welfare state, the proliferation of opaque regulations, and the explosion of debt were all things Clinton resisted. No longer–not when 2016 may be a new opportunity for Hillary.
Romney is also the incumbent in a cultural sense–he is the old, rich, white guy that 45 years of higher education and Hollywood have inveighed against. He has a stake in the system and values that two successive generations of elites have been taught to hate. And so an election that ought to have been a referendum on Obama, and which Obama hoped to turn into a choice between him and Romney, is now a referendum on Romney alone.
The left is very, very good at eschewing the issues in favor of divisive political tropes. We are to hate Mitt Romney for who he is – rich, white, etc. – not because of what he stands for.
And we can debate about what he really does stand for. While an improvement over Obama, Romney is no savior for what ails America. Yet it's sad to see this campaign come down to who Romney is rather than what he is, and what he believes and what policies he might implement.

Dress: Topshop, Bag: Kate Spade, Belt: vintage, Hat: J.Crew, Necklace: Baublebar
I think about 40% of my wardrobe consists of pleats right now, but that's OK with me! This has to be my favourite dress so far for the summer. Luckily my Mum tracked it down for me back in the UK, because I couldn't find it here on online in this color. So glad she did! The weather is so hot and stuffy in NYC right now, so the light floaty fabric is perfect. On cooler evenings I've been wearing it with a pastel baby blue cashmere sweater, I love the color combination!
PS: How do you like my new haircut? I had a trip to the Arrojo salon and I couldn't be happier with the end result...But more on that to come!

It's over! TOWIE's Lauren Goodger dumps Tom Pearce
TOWIE's Lauren Goodger's romance with co-star Tom Pearce is over before it even really began.
Viewers of the ITV2 hit will see salon owner Lauren G call time on their blossoming relationship during Sunday night's show.
Lauren, 25, tells Tom: "I still want to be friends and stuff but I just want you to know that at the minute I want to be by myself."
The 22-year-old replies: "No troubs babe. Totally fine."
But he then adds: "There was like loads of little things that I just thought was weird like, when we were seeing each other.
"You always used to play it down, say to people that we hadn't slept together. I just thought 'why's she denying it?'
"I don't see why it would be a problem if we're seeing each other."
Lauren takes offence and tells him: "OK. Listen. I think it's weird that you stand there and say that to me."
To which Tom says: "I think it's weird that you keep telling people that, like...just lying about it."
The couple had been dating for less than a month.

The War on Drugs Has Become the War on the American People
Insisting that the "damage done by drugs is felt far beyond the millions of Americans with diagnosable substance abuse or dependence problems," President Obama made October 2011 National Substance Abuse Prevention Month. However, while drug abuse and drug-related crimes have unquestionably taken a toll on American families and communities, the government's own War on Drugs has left indelible scars on the population.
Indeed, although the Obama administration has shied away from using the phrase War on Drugs, its efforts to crack down on illicit drug use—especially marijuana use—have not abated. Just consider, every 19 seconds someone in the U.S. is arrested for violating a drug law. Every 30 seconds someone in the U.S. is arrested for violating a marijuana law, making it the fourth most common cause of arrest in the United States.
So far in 2011, approximately 1,313,673 individuals have been arrested for drug-related offenses. In 2009, police arrested an estimated 858,408 persons for marijuana violations. Of those charged with marijuana violations, approximately 89 percent were charged with possession only. Moreover, since December 31, 1995, the U.S. prison population has grown an average of 43,266 inmates per year, with about 25 percent sentenced for drug law violations.
The foot soldiers in the government's increasingly fanatical war on drugs, particularly marijuana, are state and local police officers dressed in SWAT gear and armed to the hilt. These SWAT teams carry out roughly 50,000 no-knock raids every year in search of illegal drugs and drug paraphernalia.
As author and journalist Radley Balko reports, "The vast majority of these raids are to serve routine drug warrants, many times for crimes no more serious than possession of marijuana.... Police have broken down doors, screamed obscenities, and held innocent people at gunpoint only to discover that what they thought were marijuana plants were really sunflowers, hibiscus, ragweed, tomatoes, or elderberry bushes (it's happened with all five)."
The Case of Philip Cobbs
Take the case of Philip Cobbs, an unassuming 53-year-old African- American man who cares for his blind, deaf 90-year-old mother and lives on a 39-acre tract of land that's been in his family since the 1860s. On July 26, 2011, while spraying the blueberry bushes near his Virginia house, Cobbs noticed a black helicopter circling overhead. After watching the helicopter for several moments, Cobbs went inside to check on his mother. By the time he returned outside, several unmarked police SUVs had driven onto his property and police in flak jackets, carrying rifles and shouting, had exited the vehicles and were moving toward him.
Although the officers insisted they had sighted marijuana plants growing on Cobbs's property (they claimed they found two spindly plants growing in the wreckage of a fallen oak tree), their real objective was clear—to search Cobbs's little greenhouse, which he had used that spring to start tomato plants, cantaloupes, and watermelons, as well as asters and hollyhocks. The search of the greenhouse turned up nothing more than used tomato seedling containers. Incredibly, police had not even bothered to secure a warrant before embarking on their raid of Cobbs's property—part of a routine sweep of the countryside in search of pot-growing operations that cost taxpayers upwards of $25,000, at the very least.
Thankfully for Cobbs, no one was hurt during the warrantless raid on his property. However, that is not the case for many Americans who find themselves on the wrong end of a SWAT team raid in search of marijuana.
The Case of Jose Guerena
On May 5, 2011, a SWAT team kicked open the door of ex-Marine Jose Guerena's home during a drug raid and opened fire. Thinking his home was being invaded by criminals, Guerena told his wife and child to hide in a closet, grabbed a gun and waited in the hallway to confront the intruders. He never fired his weapon. In fact, the safety was still on his gun when he was killed. The SWAT officers fired 70 rounds of ammunition at Guerena—23 of those bullets made contact. Guerena had no prior criminal record and the police found nothing illegal in his home.
Tragically, Guerena is far from the only innocent casualty in the government's War on Drugs. Botched SWAT team raids have resulted in the loss of countless lives, including children and the elderly. Usually, however, the first to be shot are the family dogs.
Shooting Dogs
As Balko reports: "When police in Fremont, California, raided the home of medical marijuana patient Robert Filgo, they shot his pet Akita nine times. Filgo was never charged. Last October [2005] police in Alabama raided a home on suspicion of marijuana possession, shot and killed both family dogs, then joked about the kill in front of the family. They seized eight grams of marijuana, equal in weight to a ketchup packet. In January [2006] a cop en route to a drug raid in Tampa, Florida, took a short cut across a neighboring lawn and shot the neighbor's two pooches on his way. And last May [2005], an officer in Syracuse, New York squeezed off several shots at a family dog during a drug raid, one of which ricocheted and struck a 13-year-old boy in the leg. The boy was handcuffed at gunpoint at the time."
Clearly, something must be done. There was a time when communities would have been up in arms over a botched SWAT raid resulting in the loss of innocent lives. Unfortunately, today we are increasingly accepting of the use of SWAT by law enforcement agencies for routine drug policing and the high incidence of error-related casualties that accompanies these raids.
What's more, the government is providing incentives to the SWAT teams carrying out these raids through federal grants such as the Edward Byrne memorial grants and the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grants. As David Borden, the executive director of the Drug Reform Coordination Network (DRCNet), pointed out, "The exact details on how Byrne and COPS grants are distributed has not been studied, at least not to my knowledge, but an examination of grant applications by one of my colleagues found that they overwhelmingly focus on the number of arrests made, particularly drug arrests. Byrne grants also fund the purchase of equipment for SWAT teams."
Unfortunately, while few of these raids even make the news, they are happening more and more frequently. As Borden notes, "In 1980 there were fewer than 3,000 reported SWAT raids. Now, the number is believed to be over 50,000 per year…. About 3/4 of these are drug raids, perhaps more by now, the vast majority of them low-level."
Balko's research reinforces this phenomenon. Based on more than a year's worth of research and culled only from documented SWAT team incidents, Balko cites "40 cases in which a completely innocent person was killed. There are dozens more in which nonviolent offenders (recreational pot smokers, for example…) or police officers were needlessly killed. There are nearly 150 cases in which innocent families, sometimes with children, were roused from their beds at gunpoint, and subjected to the fright of being apprehended and thoroughly searched at gunpoint. There are other cases in which a SWAT team seems wholly inappropriate, such as the apprehension of medical marijuana patients, many of whom are bedridden."
Not Always at War
Despite the government's current fanaticism about marijuana, America has not always been at war over cannabis. In fact, in 1619, all farmers of the Jamestown colony were required to grow cannabis for rope and other military purposes. Over the next 200 years, a variety of laws required hemp harvesting. In some cases, landowners could be imprisoned for neglecting their duty to grow hemp. Oftentimes, a surplus of hemp could be used as legal tender, even for paying taxes. In 1850, there were 8,327 hemp plantations in the U.S.
It was only later, during the early 20th century, that the government embarked on an all-out assault on marijuana, largely due to corporate business considerations that favored the production of cotton over hemp and racist policies that tied Hispanics and blacks to marijuana use. For example, even though blacks only account for 15 percent of the drug-using population, the vast majority of drug arrests and convictions affect black drug users. Incredibly, more than 70 percent of prisoners convicted of nonviolent drug offenses are black or Latino.
The time has come to put an end to the government's racially-weighted, militant war on marijuana. It is a failed, costly and misguided program that has cost the country billions. As critics rightly point out, the war on marijuana has also resulted in a massive increase in incarceration rates. According to Joe Klein, writing for Time, "We spend $68 billion per year on corrections, and one-third of those being corrected are serving time for nonviolent drug crimes. We spend about $150 billion on policing and courts, and 47.5 percent of all drug arrests are marijuana-related."
Worse, the government's War on Drugs seems to have actually exacerbated the drug problem in this country, funding criminal syndicates and failing to restrict its availability or discourage its use. Indeed, the National Survey on Drug Use and Health revealed that as recently as 2005, 58 percent of the public found marijuana readily available, with 50 percent of 12 to 17 year olds declaring it easy to get.
A growing number of legal scholars, including Bruce Fein, who served as a high-ranking Justice Department official during the Reagan administration, are calling for an end the prohibition on marijuana and treat it like alcohol by regulating and taxing it at the state level. Their rationale is that instead of allowing marijuana to flourish as a profitable black market crop, it should be taxed and regulated in a manner similar to tobacco and alcohol, which many in the medical community believe to be far more harmful than marijuana. Not only would that lessen violent criminal activity associated with the manufacture and sale of marijuana, but it would also provide an economic boost to ailing state and federal coffers. As it now stands, marijuana is the United States' largest cash crop (it brought in an estimated $35 billion in 2005), with a third of this production coming from California—the state's largest cash crop.
Repeal the Prohibition
Recently, over 500 economists—led by Nobel Laureate George Akerlof, Daron Acemoglu of MIT, and Howard Margolis of the University of Chicago—signed an open letter to the President, Congress, State Governors, and State Legislatures expounding the immense economic benefits of legalization. They pointed out that if marijuana sales were taxed at the same level as cigarettes and alcohol, the government would make up to $6.2 billion annually. Additionally, a repeal of the prohibition of marijuana would save federal, state, and local governments an estimated $7.7 billion annually by ending the need for enforcement of drug laws.
Acknowledging the medical benefits of marijuana, especially for those who suffer from Alzheimer's, HIV/AIDS, and multiple sclerosis, 16 states, as well as the District of Columbia have also legalized it for medicinal purposes. Most recently, the California Medical Association, which represents more than 35,000 physicians statewide, called for the legalization and regulation of the plant.
As always, special interests have a lot to say in these matters, and it's particularly telling that those lobbying hard to keep the prohibition on marijuana include law enforcement officials and alcoholic beverage producers. However, when the War on Drugs—aka the war on the American people—becomes little more than a thinly veiled attempt to keep SWAT teams employed and special interests appeased, it's time to revisit our drug policies and laws.
