Who Do You Think Qualifies as America's Best President?
On Presidents Day, let us know your favorite leader and why he is your choice.
Presidents Day honors Georgia Washington and Abraham Lincoln, whose birthdays are in Feburary, along with the other presidents.
In honor of the day, let us know who you think was our best president. Is it someone in current times, or in your mind has history already given us someone tough to beat?
Of course, if you'd like to tell us who you think was the worst president, we'd welcome those comments as well.

Most Metrics tell us that Bill Clinton was the most effective President of my lifetime (I am 56). I am tired of the Bush bashing, but unfortunately it is all to well deserved. He raced to the end of the line.

Tojo, I would have liked to have seen how GWB would have done had we not been attacked on our shores. It was my understanding that he was going to continue Reaganomics. It would have been interesting to say the least. Even with a war, he managed to keep us at 5% unemployment for a time. Problems began when he decided to go along with democrats when they took over. he caved way too often for my taste.
Reagan would be my pick for all time president, but Bill Clinton would be a close second. Both were able to reach across the asile and that is definately is an art.

9/11 definitely dealt W a rough hand of cards, it changed our country forever. Admittedly, it is easy to see the flaws in hind site but our military actions under him turned into an abject failure. If I had to choose a President to have a beer with, it would be W hands down, just a terrible President. I agree that Reagan knew how to get things accomplished in DC, the Great Communicator works. As far as Reaganomics is concerned, I could not disagree more. Trickle down has been a disaster. Since roughly 1980, the wealth of the top 2% has gone up over 400%, the wealth of all others has gone up 70%. This is not class warfare, it is a failure of trickle down. Businesses and investors are in the business of making money, not creating jobs or better paying jobs. I Understand this and agree in principle. That being said, we need a tax code and sensible regulations that incent (sp) level the playing field. We have become a country that is ruled not by the people or politicians but the ultra rich. $2 billion was spent on the 2012 election, this screams corruption. I am sorry, but Reagan made this insanity ok in the eyes of average American. Yes he was the great communicator.

My favorite Presidents of my lifetime are Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and Lyndon Johnson. President Johnson was one of our best civil rights Presidents.
Chris P
9:39 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
David you do realize that Lyndon Johnson originally opposed the civil rights act?
Jennie Maroney
9:29 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
Abraham Lincoln hands down. Next George Washington, then Ronald Reagan.
Worst president in American history - Barack Hussein Obama.
9:35 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
Ronald Reagan
David - LBJ did more to set back civil rights than any other President. We have a much bigger divide today than ever. The huge welfare state he crated has been a disaster.
9:36 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
LBJ "created", not "crated"
Sorry about that. I need to proof read better.
Chris P
9:42 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
George Washington will always be number one given the unique position of him being the first President. That being said Ronald Reagan would be the best President in modern times. Barack Obama has captured the title hands down of the worst President in US history.

Harrison. He had the decency to die a month into his term.
Tammy Osier
9:49 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
Chris P. - agreed about Johnson. He was very opposed. I wish people would actually look at history as it happened rather than how it has been rewritten to support an agenda. For those who say dixie-crats and all that became republicans of today, look again at history. Those people stayed with the democrats and didn't move on with the republican party. I can provide names etc... Civil rights was a turing point. For those affected by it, a great gain, for those opposed to it, the media picked up on its power to make people believe their salvation came from a political party. How disastrous that has been, but many are waking up to the truth and getting stoned for it. But I have faith that the truth will prevail.
Tammy Osier
9:51 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
But yeah, George Washington definately. He fought alongside his people to win freedom. How long has it been since we've had a leader that has seen war?

Folks, the question posed is "Who do you think qualifies as America's best President"? Please allow me to express my opinion without forcing your perspectives on this question down my throat. Thanks.

I don't see anyone forcing their perspective down your throat. Could you please elaborate?

Lincoln was the first President to decide the Constitution didn't matter if it didn't fit his needs.
Sadly, he wasn't the last one as well.
Brian Crawford
12:31 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
Lincoln preserved the union and ended slavery...hard to top that. Washington set our course. Teddy Roosevelt shaped the nation's economic destiny with his Square Deal and realized the importance of conserving our natural resources. FDR led us through our darkest times and devised the New Deal laying the foundations of the middle class. Johnson's Great Society programs brought millions out of poverty and established health care as a right for American seniors and the poor. Those would be my top five.
2:14 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
Teddy Roosevelt's shadow foreign policy butchered American Indians, Filipinos and Chinese. Later on killed millions in the Pacific campaign of WWII because of stealth promises to the Japanese we did not live up to. Well read man as yourself should know this.

Good Grief Y'all

History will treat Barack Obama with the respect he deserves. I think FDR, Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, and Bill Clinton all served their country well in modern times. Jimmy Carter's legacy was robbed by the Iranian hostage crisis and big oil. He has proven to be the best former President.
The worst would be George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon - in that order.
David Brown
3:41 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
Good Grief Y'all, you're a breath of fresh air. Thanks for your comment.
Brian Crawford
5:24 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
I think you're right on the money about Obama and Carter. Reagan and Bush as well. The conservative adulation of Reagan just doesn't stand up under scrutiny.
Good Grief Y'all
8:01 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
Thanks, Brian. And, you're so right about Reagan. Yet, Democrats are accused of idolizing our current President.
Good Grief Y'all
7:03 am on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
Amy, :D
FDR served as POTUS for 12 years during the Great Depression and WWII - the 2nd worst period in US history, with the Civil War being the worst of times. Imagine that - Americans agreeing to 3 terms with the same person. At this point in time, it's had to believe we'll ever have another 2-term president from either party.
Tammy Osier
5:14 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
While Roosevelt created many good programs, the problem with government creating programs is summed up in something Reagan said:
"No government ever voluntarily reduces itself in size. Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth!"
What that means to me is that if we put a time limit on a program, the government needs to have the integrity to stick to it. The only one worth keeping was the ones for the elderly. Look at welfare and tell me, is it better or worse for having been around so long?
He continued..."We should measure welfare's success by how many people leave welfare, not by how many are added." At that point, it has failed. At least we could have reformed it. the problem with government is that it continues to take money from people even when the money is spent on a failing program. Seems we could have some way to withold taxes on certain things until government fixes it-then people would be happy to give. But government is drunk on power over other peoples money.

Today was a difficult day. It's the one year anniversary of my wife's passing. Although I know she is in a much better place, I still miss her. But luckily for me, I can read through the posts of several of our most liberal stooges and get a huge laugh. Thanks so much for cheering me up. You guys are a hoot.

I believe that "Mt. Rushmore," which is part of the Black Hills, should be GIVEN back to the decendants of the the Lakota Indian Tribe. The Lakota were "removed and re-assigned" to other Indian land (known now to all as reservations), after white-european settlers found gold to be mined, in the Black Hills. The Black Hills area has been inhabited by various Indian Tribes since 7000 BC. On, 23 July,1980 (after the case of U.S. v. Sioux Nation of Indians, ended) The Supreme Court ruled that the Black Hills were ILLEGALLY TAKEN and that the remuneration of the Black Hills be set at its initial offering price of $106 million dollars. The Lakota REFUSED the money. Not a single Lakota tribal member has ever claimed or accepted, any of this money, which in 2010 amounted to over $757 million dollars. And to help erase the memory of this terrible injustice, I believe the U.S. Governmnet should clear away, all the U.S. presidential faces and any trace of them from the Black Hills Indian territory, if the Lakota desire it done.

Ronald Reagan and George Washington. The absolute worst in the history of this great country is Barack Obama who is taking us down the path of socialism.


text:
A reference used to describe a night of intoxication with friends that ultimately leads to blacking out & puking. Girls often use this as an excuse to get drunk and be taken advantage of. Boys often use this as an excuse to take advantage of girls without them remembering. All in all, if you're gonna be a shit show... At least make it classy. Victoria; always puts on the best shit show when partying.
1. | shit show | ||
A description of an event or situation which is characterized by an ridiculously inordinate amount of frenetic activity. Disorganization and chaos to an absurd degree. Often associated with extreme ineptitude/incompetence and or sudden and unexpected failure.
Similar: fiasco clusterfuck "The picnic turned into a real shit show because that bozo decided to throw rocks at that hornet's nest."
2. | shit show | ||
The most over-used reference to a night of intoxication with friends that ultimatley leads to moments of blackness and dissaray. Girls often refer to there nights as shit shows to help exaggerate the fact they only had two drinks and want an excuse to fuck brad the dickhead down the hall. The easiest way to tell someone is new to partying is by them referreing to a night as a shit show after 2006. "Hey Teresa , this party is such a shit show, are you enjoying your o'douls?"
3. | Shit Show | ||
Used when "shenanigans" is just not adequate. A shitshow denotes general craziness, debauchery, drug and/or alcohol use, drama and sheer insanity all occurring simultaneously. One does not usually realize the shitshow is occurring until the following day. Ex: Leah: Oh my god. Can you believe what happened last night?
Skyy: Girl, that was fucked up. What a Shit Show! |
4. | Shit Show | ||
Ridiculous/wild outcomes and or actions that can be caused by intoxication that ultimatley leads to moments of blackness and dissaray. Last night was such a shit show, I can't believe that I started dancing on the bar topless!!!
5. | Shit Show | ||
A display of ridiculousness. This ridiculousness could be measured in alcohol consumption, or by other controlled substances that is causing a group of people to look like idiots. It is not a "show," yet a display of behavior that is unappealing to the innocent bystander who wishes to not take part in such ridiculousness. Everyone in that bar is drunk and acting like idiots, it looks like a total shit show in there-let's bounce.
The point in a night of cheerful drunkenness, where one moves past the point of fuzzy warmth into "OH SHIT!" territory, and then all the fuckin dawgs get let out the pound. This feeling is usually followed by a hangover that will hit you harder than a punk-ass kid that doesn't know anything about bumper-car etiquette, or a .42 BAC. Oh man, did you see Willie last night.. Total Shit Show. He must have experimented with at least 2 beers.

Jimmie Durham on Santiago Bose
Posted: October 31, 2012 Filed under: Home, my family is fucking cool, philippine culture | Tags: Jimmie Durham, santiago bose, University of the Philippines, Vargas Museum Leave a comment »An excerpt from the artist Jimmie Durham's work in This Long Century:
I've written a poem about the Filipino artist, Santiago Bosé who seemed irresistible to all women and wanted to love them all.
Far in the (not really so cold!) north of Norway
But not yet Karasjok where I hope to go
Next year, I was not shocked but struck;
Surprised by a display of woodcut prints
By John Savio. "John?" I asked
Myself, "Why isn't he called 'Jan' or 'Johan'
Or even something close to the Cherokee
I want to ask Santiago Bosé.
In the whole world, not only the South Pacific,
There is no Santiago Bosé.
Santiago Bose's first exhibit at the University of the Philippines! Abababa!

Barrow man's death case dropped by court
Published at 16:51, Wednesday, 14 November 2012
THE aunt of a man found dead after a suspected street attack says her family may never know how he died after a court cleared the man accused of his manslaughter.
Paul Green, 44, died after he was found unconscious with serious head injuries in Penrith Street, Barrow, in May.
Andrew Logan, 43, had been due to stand trial for his manslaughter next week – but was cleared due to lack of evidence in Preston Crown Court yesterday.
Mr Green, of Adelphi Court, was the last of three brothers to die in tragic circumstances.
His brother, Barry, was stabbed to death in Barrow Park in November 1999, and their other brother, David, died from leukaemia, aged 11.
Yesterday Mr Green's aunt, Gloria Rooney, 58, of Cheviot Hill, Barrow, said the family had been plunged into uncertainty and distress by the court's decision.
She said: "We will probably never know what happened, which is hard. We have got to live with it."
The news had been particularly hard for Mr Green's father Barry, who is in his 60s and is battling pancreatic and throat cancer, she said.
She said: "Something has happened but the police just can't get to the bottom of it.
"It is a bit mind-blowing, because we have got to live with the fact that Paul can't come back and tell us."
Yesterday, the Crown told the court it would not be able to continue with the prosecution due to gaps in evidence surrounding the case.
Crown prosecutor Jon Close said there was evidence Mr Logan, of Dalkeith Street, Barrow, had escorted Mr Green out of the Rams Head Hotel, in Rawlinson Street, on May 3 and had ended up "stood over" him as he lay on the ground.
However, there was no evidence Mr Logan followed him to where he was eventually found.
Witnesses living near Penrith Street reported hearing a disturbance in the street but there was no evidence Mr Logan was involved in this.
A pathologist had also said it was possible the fatal head injury had been caused by him falling when he was drunk.
Police have appealed for anyone who may have fresh evidence about Mr Green's death to come forward.
Detective Chief Inspector Bob Qazi said: "The police believe, from the evidence and information gathered, that Mr Green did not die as the result of a random attack and would urge people in Barrow not to fear for their safety as a result of this investigation not being resolved.
"The police will take seriously any information received and, where necessary, will act upon it."

Put the emphasis on vegetables at mealtime. Pick one day (or just a meal) a week to eat meatless and have veggies be the shinning star on your plate. If you're worried that you'll miss the meat, include chewy, satisfying foods like seared firm tofu, grilled mushrooms and nuts, which feel more filling because they take more time and effort to eat than, say, a spoonful of broth. They also better mimic the way you chew meat—which makes them a more satisfying substitute.

Carrots, celery and peppers take on a whole new taste when dunked with a little dip—OK, for some of you perhaps drowned in dip. It's all good, if the veggies get eaten. And when you pick one of EatingWell's healthy dip recipes, you really can't go wrong. (Plus, with our Creamy Spinach Dip Recipe, even the dip has veggies!)
A 2011 Temple University Study found that adding a small amount of dip to a serving of vegetables helped children eat more of them. The study, published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, found that offering 2.5 ounces of ranch dressing as a dip increased broccoli consumption by 80 percent. Go dip!
So go ahead and...

It may not be the taste of Brussels sprouts, cauliflower or broccoli you hate, but the smell. Cooking cruciferous vegetables releases sulfurous compounds (the same compounds that deliver cancer-fighting benefits). Try steaming them or roasting them, which releases the smelliest compounds, and then eat them in a room away from the kitchen. Looking for other ways to transform your taste buds?

read full post »A few years ago we asked some of our favorite EatingWell contributors to share healthy breakfast recipes from their part of the world. Darina Allen—chef, cookbook author and director of the legendary Irish cooking school Ballymaloe in County Cork—sent us her recipe for Irish Soda Bread, with this letter:
"On Sunday morning I love to cook a huge Irish breakfast—rashers and sausage and some lovely fresh eggs from the "Palais de Poulets," our swanky sounding but rather ordinary hen house here at Ballymaloe…. Perhaps best of all, the meal is completed with fresh-baked Irish soda bread.
"While the kettle of spring water on our ancient Aga cooker is coming to the boil, I start by measuring out some flour for the soda bread, then go to the pantry for the jug of thick buttermilk from our Jersey cow....

Simplify healthy meal planning by filling half your plate with veggies. That's an easy way to know you'll get the recommended amount of vegetables each day without worrying about the math.
How many baby carrots are in a cup? How much broccoli equals a serving? Confused and overwhelmed by keeping track of cups or serving sizes?
Photos: What Is a Serving of Vegetables?
Even the most well-versed nutrition professionals don't have all the measurements memorized. Eating healthier would be easier if there were a simple image of what veggie-rich eating looks like. There is!
Simplify by filling half your plate with vegetables at each meal. Imagine a dinner plate and divide it in half. Fill one half with...

Offutt AFB
Des Moines Metro Opera performs a scene from Così fan tutti as part of their performance at Offutt AFB. Photo by Kendra Williams, courtesy of Offutt AFB |
This evening was conceived by the base as a pre-Valentine's Day special event for couples; the performance was preceded by a cocktail reception and three-course dinner. Sated by a desert of fried raspberry cheesecake, the appreciative audience enjoyed a lively two-hour performance by Des Moines Metro Opera. The repertoire skewed a bit toward the romantic in honor of the occasion.
Des Moines Metro Opera took an innovative approach to their production - the first half was a 50-minute performance of Così fan tutte, Mozart's comic opera, complete with a backdrop, costumes, and props. The work was adapted quite well to this setting. The second half of the evening consisted of Broadway and American opera classics.
One word that came to mind during the second act was "seamless." The coming and going from the stage, and transition from song to song was all very smooth, with little to no lag time between each song. Because DMMO's program included a synopsis of each play or operatic work, they did not use a narrator to provide explanations for each song. Many of the songs were from the golden age of American musical theater, a fact which was appreciated by the numerous military retirees in the audience.

There's one product in my makeup arsenal that's a constant. Whether I have time to do a full face of makeup or I (gasp!) run out the door with a clean face, this one item never leaves my side. It's in my bathroom, on my desk at work, in my purse, on my kitchen counter, in my makeup bag, on my nightstand. What is this magical product of which I speak? Why, it's none other than Bonne Bell LipSmackers -- yes, the lip balm we all carried around as kids in fun flavors like Dr. Pepper and Root Beer!
These balms seriously moisturize and soften my lips like no other, keeping them so supple and smooth even during the harshest of temperatures. Now, you may ask how I can afford to have them strewn around so many different places and not go broke. Well, that's where Wallet-Friendly Wednesdays comes in -- because each LipSmacker is available for only $1.60! And if you just have to go for the massive Biggy LipSmacker, it will only set you back a whopping $2.95. I could buy every single color and flavor and still be spending under $75! Here are the ones I just can't live without.
Bubble Gum: The Bubble Yum-like flavor just makes me hearken right back to my childhood.
Pink Lemonade: This flavor makes me long for those hot summer days when I can just kick back with a tall glass of -- you guessed it -- pink lemonade! Plus the soft pink leaves such a nice sheen on your lips.
Strawberry: The subtle crimson shade is super-flattering, and out of all the flavors this one is definitely my favorite.
Watermelon: Get the great taste of the juicy summer fruit without having to spit out any of those annoying seeds.
These flavors, plus many more, are available at drugstore.com. Be sure to pick up one -- or twenty -- today!

Imagine a building where one side is a dark, dreary insane asylum populated by sadistic guards, doctors and attractive female inmates, and the other side is a popular brothel and speakeasy. Sounds like the heart of a b-movie exploitation film and that's what Sucker Punch, the new computer-graphics filled cinematic graphic novel from Zack Snyder, turns out to be.
Unfortunately, the film is also painfully juvenile with a target audience of adolescent boys who define their world as being surrounded by bullies and beautiful, unobtainable girls "in real life", and bad guys, dragons and demons to kill with various cool and hyper-aggressive weapons in their virtual, video-game-fueled lives. It's no surprise that the women in the film are all costumed in fetishistic outfits with plunging necklines, bare midriffs, über-short skirts and long stockings. They're all very sexy but, unsurprisingly, there's no actual sex in the film.
Sucker Punch starts out with a dark, moody sequence where late teen blonde waif Baby Doll (Emily Browning) is trapped in a gothic monstrosity of a house with her scary, leering stepfather (Gerard Plunkett). When she rejects his advances after her mom has passed away, he turns his attentions to her little sister, to which Baby reacts by finding a gun and shooting him. She misfires and her sister ends up killed and his revenge is to have her locked up in the home for the mentally insane.
And that's where it switches from a delightfully creepy horror film into an incoherent genre mashup. Baby Doll meets the other babes in distress that become her posse: Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish), Rocket (Jena Malone), Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens) and Amber (Jamie Chung). They're all required to act out erotic plays in the speakeasy then entertain individual customers, through which we realize that all the women in Sucker Punch are victims of sadistic men, and that there are no bad women -- or good men -- in the entire narrative.
Sucker Punch is a mess. The storyline barely makes sense and the constant transitions from fantasy to "reality", era to era, genre to genre, left me asking "WTF?" more than once during the movie. By the end it was just exhausting and while the effects were splendid, the storyline was too weak to sustain it. I can only recommend this for adolescent men who want to see their soft porn mixed with a strong dose of video game visuals and effects.

1. | prepster | ||
Really a chimera of two existing groups, the prepster is someone most likely raised in the suburbs and very preppy, that moves to a very hipster centered city (Brooklyn, Portland, Austin), and due to scene exposure adopts certain hipster trends whilst retaining the preppy spirit. Specific examples are skinny jeans with boat shoes, or skinny Nantucket red jeans, cardigans, and keds (although arguably of preppy origin, now adopted by the hipster). The prepster has the ability to flow seamlessly between the two scenes, adopting the traditional seersucker and polos while home, and looking very trendy at loft parties in Williamsburg. This emerging scene has been officially typified by Brooks Brothers new Black Sheep line, designed by Thom Browne, and the new J. Crew Men's store being created with help from Jack Spade. The major difference between the prepster and hipster is money and cleanliness. Drug use also shifts from pot to coke. Taylor: Hey, have you seen my seersucker shorts, I need to go sailing tomorrow with the rents.
Thom: Yeah, they're right next to your skinny jeans from Uniqlo and your really dirty tee shirt. Taylor: Dope, thanks. Thom: Dude, you're such a prepster |
2. | prepster | ||
a mix between preppy and hipster! They buy clothes from urban outfitters, thrift stores, ralph lauren, tommy hillfiger, and j.crew. They warm-hearted and just want the world better dressed!
3. | prepster | ||
Maddie was both preppy and a hipster, SHE WAS A PREPSTER
4. | Prepster | ||
Hi tops tongue out, acid wash tapered leg, short-sleeve button-up print with one to many buttons undone, long crew cut with stiff gel, swatch watch preppy boy swag, hey! surf prep ivy surf Kelly K. says to her friend Jess S. "Look at that hot guy, he looks like he just walked out of a JC Penney magazine."
Z.M. walks over and says "I noticed you ladies eyeing me, if you must know I only wear Arizona jeans." He walks away slinging his jean jacket over his shoulder like he just left a Canadian wedding. Jess S. says "Oh my gosh, he is the preppiest prepster I've ever seen." Z.M. stops to let out a fart and looks around to see if anybody heard. The girls, oblivious to his flatulence, blush thinking about how deeply embedded his jeans are into his ass. e.g. Zack Morris (SBTB) = prepster |
5. | prepster | ||
like a hipster, only less dirty He golfs, pops the (pink) collar, and rows crew. What a prepster
6. | Prepster | ||
A person who dresses very preppy, but tries to act gangster at the same time. Man that guy is a prepster
7. | prepster | ||
This is just another word for a preppy person, but is different from a 'prep'
See prep I have been called this before instead of just a prep. She's a prepster with her pink collar popped and ribbon watch.

-In the context of survivalism you could arguably break groups down into naturally occuring and intentional. The naturally occuring groups come from families, churches, groups of friends, etc that for whatever reason are spurred to become survivalists. The intentional groups are survivalists who in whatever way find eachother and seek to form groups with like minded individuals.
-It seems like both type of groups have advantages and disadvantages.
-Naturally occuring groups have the benefit of being made up of people you know and trust. This is huge to me. Maybe I have trust issues. However some folks seem to have shared information and trusted their lives based on relationships that to me are not sufficient for somebody to borrow my car, let alone watch Walker.
-On the downside in naturally occuring groups you have to deal with varied levels of motivation, skills and logistical stockpiles (or lack theiron) of folks you know. Getting somebody to take the leap from planning to come together in a bad scenario to implimenting a vigerous PT program, regularly conducting intentional training, building skills and stockpiling beans, bullets and bandaids is hard.
-Intentional groups of folks without a long background have the advantage that you can pick and choose. Find a mechanic if you need one or whatever. Also motivation and getting folks acting should be less of an issue than with naturally occuring groups.
-On the downside there is the trust issue. I talked about this a long time ago, beware there are dirty words that may offend some peoples fragile feelings. Also I seriously wonder about folks who plan to abandon their family and friends to throw in with a bunch of strangers. This sort of plan vastly underestimates the bonds and obligations that people have to family and good friends. Unless everybody involved is an orphan or their family lives thousands of miles away I suspect strap hanging family will be a serious issue for this sort of group. [ Any sort of group will need to have brutally harsh conversations about how to deal with this issue. Figuring out if you can/ how to feed and shelter people we love that can't or more realistically won't prepare for theirselves is a complicated topic. They would also be an issue for naturally occuring groups but since they tend to be family and friends anyway at least you are dealing with fewer families.]
-As to leadership and such I think naturally occuring groups have an advantage. Maybe there is already a Patriarch and things are simple or in other cases previously existing relationships have largely sorted theirselves out. Intentional groups seem inherantly full of chiefs and short of indians.
Anyway I am interested in what has worked well or poorly for you. Please let me know in the comments section.

Mike HornickMario Steta, right, president of Aneberries A.C., chats with Michael Hollister, center, vice president of sales and marketing for Driscoll Strawberry Associates Inc. and SENASICA-SAGARPA general director of plant health Javier Trujillo, left, at the second annual Aneberries international congress Oct. 4 in Guadalajara, Mexico. GUADALAJARA, Mexico — Increased consumption and new markets are top priorities for the expanding Mexican blackberry industry, according to growers and shippers.
About 450 people attended the second international congress of Aneberries A.C., or National Association of Berries Exporters, in Guadalajara Oct. 3-5 — up around 50% from last year.
Many said they worry Mexico is near the point of overproduction on blackberries in spring and winter months.
Alfredo Javier Buenrostro of Agricola Valle Paraiso, a blackberry grower, recalled unhappy memories of one price drop — $4 to $1.60 per pound — in Michoacan.
"We could get to the point where planting and harvesting blackberries is not profitable anymore," he said through a translator.
Managing that crop has been a problem, according to Mario Steta, Aneberries president, also speaking through a translator.
"We haven't found a way to avoid the peaks," he said. "We might see another in November."
"The blackberry supply is very challenged as there are so many different entities involved," he said.
Michael Hollister, vice president of sales and marketing for Driscoll Strawberry Associates Inc., Watsonville, Calif., said the number of blackberry varieties in Mexico makes it a challenging segment.
"If you plan to grow, do it with an understanding of what consumption will be and the impact of oversupply," Hollister said. "Aneberries could probably help us organize the supply curve so we could better communicate with one voice."
Mexico had 19,647 hectares (about 48,550 acres) in the four major berries last year. About 57% was in blackberries and 36% in strawberries. Volume on all berries was 386,000 tons; 64% came from Michoacan.
Overall production rose 147% from 2000 to 2011. Volume could easily double again in the next five or six years, Steta said.
Where will it all go?
Domestic consumption is a target, but so are new markets. Steta recently returned from a Hong Kong trade show, and Mexico-China Chamber president Ricardo Antonio Vaca Uribe said it's vital to look beyond the U.S. and Canada.

Windsor Heights police and Polk County supervisors talked Tuesday about plans to add more automated traffic enforcement cameras.
Polk County supervisors approved a plan Tuesday morning for the county to use mobile speed enforcement cameras.
In a 3 to 2 vote, the three Democratic Polk County supervisors voted in favor of the cameras, while the two Republicans voted against them.
Polk County Sheriff Bill McCarthy said studies have shown time and time again that the cameras have helped.
"This has reduced speed-related accidents and that's been our stated purpose from the beginning. I think the research supports it. I think it also ought to be a local prerogative," said McCarthy.
McCarthy said after a year of use he would review how the cameras are working to decide if they would continue to be used. A list of the locations for the cameras would be released weekly to the public.
Many details of the plan have yet to be worked out. Officials said it will likely be months before the cameras would hit the streets.
Windsor Heights also held a news conference Tuesday afternoon to talk about their new mobile traffic enforcement cameras.
The Windsor Heights new units are housed in small cars that make them easier to move around anywhere in Windsor Heights. According to the city's police chief, that includes Interstate 235.
Windsor Heights city leaders are implementing two so-called automated mobile enforcement units and will deploy them wherever officers patrol, from University Avenue to residential areas and even the interstate.

A six-month trial use has been arranged with Universal K- 9 Security, Incorporated, at a cost of $ 4,000 for two unnamed schools. Dogs will be used in addition to the regular security patrol now operating in this district. The move was made to offset an increase in break and entry and vandalism. At present, an around- the- clockcleaning schedule is supplemented by use of the security force on certain weekend and holiday periods. The dogs will be in use only during periods when buildings are not in use by students or other authorized groups. The school district has joined at least five other Long Island school districts in using the canine security patrol. Dogs are now in use in the Brentwood, Middle Country, Sachem, Malverne and Copiague J:_. • . » T • » M u cuau provides dogs for a supermarket chain, several nationally- known retail stores and the Long Island Lighting Company, it was learned. The dogs were demonstrated to pupils in a limited number of schools. Children saw how the dogs will refuse food, when offered by anyone other than the trainer. The dogs, used in pairs, can keep six SCHOOLS people at bay. Although they have been trained to work in pairs, they will split up if entry is made at different parts of a building. If an intruder enters the building, he will be held at bay until a trainer arrives. The security company provides continuous patrol of the buildings where dogs are in use. The dogs have been trained to assist in patrolling the school grounds in the company of a trainer. K- 9 Security uses a particular breed of dog, the rothweiler, in addition to shepherds and dobermans. The rothweiler is about the size of a doberman, but has the overall body build of the heavier shepherd. On seeing the dogs, you are certain they can do the job they are trained to do. A spokesman for K- 9 said the dogs relied mainly on the senses of t hearing and smell in their work. The hearing of these dogs is about six to seven times more acute than that of a man. Their sense of smell is about 70 per cent better than a man's. The District's experience with glass damage and vandalism has been fortunate, relative toother area districts.' However, with the asset of early darkness and the vacation periods coming soon, the dog patrol has been instituted. Coach Don Snyder's Farmingdale High School football Lions, which copped the North Shore League I title two weeks ago, wound up the season with a convincing 38- 14 win over Beth-page before 4,000 fans at home in the annual Kiwanis trophy game for a 8- 0 record. The favored Dalers, who held a slim 14- 6 halftime lead, were Dalers End Pigskin Season With 8- 0 Record being hard- pressed by the visitors at the beginning of the fourth quarter 22- 14, when quarterback Don Stewart, a poised six- foot 175- pound junior faced a third and ten situation. A strong rush was being put on Stewart as he faded back to pass. Just as he was hit, he lobbed a short swing pass to Rick Gerardi, who hurdled over would- be tacklers down the sideline for 26 yards for a first down. Stewart followed with his third touchdown pass on another screen to Jer-mome Williams to put the gameout of reach. Farmingdale scores were notched by Romano on 47 and 54 pass plays; Ryan on a three yard burst; Williams 21 from Stewart and Gerardi run. yard pass a one- yard Three farmingdale linemen and three backs were named to the North Shore I league team this week by the Nassau Football Coaches Association. Linemen named were: Mark Altschuld, Robert Billinger and Nelson Giordano. Don Stewart, Rick Gerardi and Vic Bonventre were the backs chosen by the coaches. With the return of Stewart, a junior, and a host of returning lettermen, the Dalers are looking ahead to another fine football season next year after being rated fourth best in the County by a daily newspaper. . , F!? wl? y> v i c e President of Banker's Trust, Farmingdale" looks at the first place winner in the annual doll- dressing contest sponsored by the bank.

After a year of ripping the hair out of my head trying to figure out how to make a website, I finally have something.
The site isn't completely finished as I still have to type and link a lot of pages for the Japanese crowd. I type real slow in that language!
Cheers and thanks taking a look.
