Update in progress as of July 6, 2020.
Below is a list of creative writing MFA and PhD programs that fully fund ALL of their students. If your program is missing or you notice any inaccuracies, please contact us.
We define a fully funded program as one that provides both tuition remission and a stipend to EVERY admitted student. We cannot guarantee this list will remain accurate from year to year but we will keep it as up to date as possible. If you're unsure about the status of a program's funding, it's always best to ask them directly.
NOTE: As of March 2017, if a program on this list stops fully funding all admitted students, they will be removed immediately. They will then need to fully fund all students for at least ONE academic year before we will add them again. What does this mean? If a program is removed and then promises to fully fund students again for the next application cycle, they will NOT be added right away. We have occasionally been contacted by people offered unfunded admission to programs that market themselves to applicants as fully funded and were listed on this website. Not fully disclosing your program's financial status to applicants is unethical.
DISCLAIMER: This website lists fully funded programs. A fully funded program is one that does not charge tuition. Some fully funded programs do not pay a stipend. Many (possibly most) pay stipends that are below the federal poverty guidelines. Other programs pay well, but expect overwhelming amounts of work in the form of assistantships that will have you working more than full time for less than minimum wage. Still other programs have problems of bigoted administrators, harassing or abusive faculty members, and/or a cruelly hypercompetitive student culture. The Workshop does not have the resources to investigate every complaint and will not remove a program from this list for any reason except that the program is not fully funded. A listing here is not an endorsement on the part of The Workshop. It is always helpful to talk to current and former students before committing to an MFA in creative writing, or any other graduate degree in any other field.
University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa
All students admitted to the MFA program are guaranteed up to four years of full financial support, though the program can be completed in three years. Graduate assistantships (currently $14,125) include full payment of graduate tuition and health insurance. Incoming students are also eligible for other awards, including Graduate Council Fellowships ($15,000–$20,000 plus full tuition remission), Truman Capote Fellowships (the number and value of these awards vary each year), Truman Capote Prison Arts Fellowships ($15,000 plus full tuition remission), McNair Graduate Fellowships ($15,000 plus full tuition remission), and editorial positions with Black Warrior Review (the award for these positions can vary).
University of Arizona: "All students admitted to the University of Arizona's MFA program are fully funded (tuition remission + a stipend + health insurance) for the duration of the program, typically via a GTA position teaching one or two sections of first-year writing (or creative writing, by competitive application) per semester. In 2016, the stipend for GTAs is $16,120 for students entering with a master's degree, and $14,808 for those without. Students are also eligible for Foundation awards and other sources of funding such as travel and research grants." – Creative Writing Program Director, Ander Monson
Arizona State University: "Currently, all students admitted to the MFA program who submit a complete and approved teaching assistantship application are awarded a TA by the Department of English.

Graduate students with assistantships must enroll in a minimum of six credit hours each semester."

No final offer of assistantship can be made until all application materials have been received.
Additionally, our students compete each year for several Walton Fellowships of $11,000 and several Lily Peter Fellowships of $1,000. Other graduate fellowships worth $3,000 per year for up to four years are also available.
Translation students working from Middle-Eastern languages such as Arabic or Hebrew are eligible for non-teaching fellowships of $12,000 per year."

Additionally, all MFAs are eligible for four competitive non-service Devine fellowships, each about $2,300 per year, two in poetry and two in fiction.

Brown University: "In the first year, all graduate students receive a fellowship that pays a monthly stipend and covers tuition, the health fee, and health insurance. Fellowships do not require employment or teaching. The stipend for the 2014-2015 academic year is $11,500 (payable at the end of the month from September through May).
Between the first and second academic year, students in good standing receive a summer stipend of $2,500 (payable at the end of the month from June through August).
In the second year, all graduate students in good standing who are qualified will be awarded teaching assistantships. Teaching assistants teach one undergraduate writing workshop per semester, and receive a full stipend, tuition, health fee, and health insurance. The stipend for the 2014-2015 academic year is $23,000."
University of California, Irvine: Domestic students: Teaching Assistantships provide full tuition coverage as well as university health insurance (medical, dental, and vision). MFA students on TAship are also assigned to teach one undergraduate composition or creative writing course per quarter (three courses per academic year). MFA students receive academic credit as well as a nine-month salary for teaching. For 2020-2021, students will earn an estimated $21,911.49 for the academic year. As a state-funded institution, UC Irvine has very limited financial support available for international students.
University of California, Riverside
Florida Atlantic University: "Funding includes a complete tuition waiver and a teaching assistantship with a stipend of between 9K and 12K over the 9-month academic year, guaranteed for the three years of the program. In addition, all applicants are considered for the Lawrence Sanders Fellowships (12K/15K/15K over three years). Students either teach two classes per semester or, if qualified, can choose to teach one class and work at the university writing center." – Becka McKay
University of Florida, Gainesville: "All MFA students here receive a full tuition waiver. They also receive a fellowship and teaching-assistantship package for the duration of the three-year program."
University of South Florida: "Our MFA students receive a 100 percent tuition waiver, a teaching assistantship, and eligibility to enroll in group health insurance. All graduate assistants teach composition in the first year of the program, but in the second and third years, they are eligible to teach lower-level creative writing courses and may work as tutors in the USF Writing Center." – from a reader.
University of Houston: "The Creative Writing Programs works hard to provide financial support to all of its students. Last year 14 of our 16 incoming students received teaching assistantships—$15,000/year (MFA) and $17,169/year for (PhD). All 16 entering students received either a Graduate Tuition Fellowship or Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center Fellowship to remit and/or cover the cost of tuition. In addition, 15 students received Inprint fellowships for $10,000, and 7 students received UH Presidential or Provost Fellowships for $4,000."
University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign: "Most awards are in the form of teaching assistantships, but some fellowships are available. All awards include tuition and partial fee waivers, although students must pay some fees. Entering MFA candidates receive three years of support. The first year of support, set at 33% (teaching one class a semester), earns the graduate student $9,780; non-recurring fellowship funds, typically in the amount of $2,500, are given to first-year students to augment the stipend, making it around $12,280. In their second and third years, students receive 67% appointments (teaching two courses a semester) and earn approximately $19,850. These are 2010-2011 dollars, a number that usually goes up every year."
Indiana University: "Each student in our program receives financial aid, usually in the form of a graduate teaching assistantship, and all or nearly all incoming students are awarded supplemental fellowships, which reduce the teaching load during the first year."
University of Iowa's Nonfiction Writing Program: "The Nonfiction Writing Program provides students with funding in the form of fellowships, scholarships, research assistantships, and teaching assistantships in composition, literature, and creative writing."
University of Iowa Writers' Workshop: "Financial assistance is available for all students enrolled in the program, in the form of teaching assistantships, research assistantships, and fellowships. Most fellowships and assistantships provide either tuition scholarships or full tuition remission. Since the Workshop's financial aid offerings consist of both one- and two-year appointments and fellowships, the form of aid may vary from the first year to the second. A student's financial aid amount in the second year will either be equivalent to or more than the amount granted in the first year — never less."
John Hopkins University: "Our two-year Master of Fine Arts in fiction and poetry offers: intensive literary seminars focused on diverse readings; small workshops; one-on-one advising toward a thesis; frequent interactions with visiting writers; and a culture of accomplishment and publication. Approximately four poets and four fiction writers are admitted annually. All students admitted to the MFA program are fully funded and receive full tuition, health insurance and a generous teaching fellowship (currently $30,500). Students spend their first semester taking a course in pedagogy, and then teach one section for each of the remaining three semesters of their time here."
Louisiana State University: "LSU fully funds all students accepted into the program, offering teaching assistantships and a full tuition waiver, as well as an excellent health insurance package."
Note for LSU: student fee costs are not covered.
University of Maryland: "Each year, the program accepts 8 applicants (4 fiction writers and 4 poets), who are fully funded by Teaching Assistantships, and, this past admissions cycle, we were able to enhance 6 Teaching Assistantships with additional fellowship support. Our aid packages are typically 2-year agreements. As Teaching Assistants, our MFA students teach one class during their first year (in the spring semester) and three classes during their second year. Although a great deal of this teaching is Academic Writing (English 101), our MFA students are guaranteed at least one chance to teach an undergraduate creative writing workshop or to serve as a teaching assistant in an undergraduate literature course."
Miami University: "All students admitted to the MFA program in Creative Writing hold generous Graduate Assistantships (which include a summer stipend), teaching first-year composition in Miami's renowned rhetoric and composition program.

University of Michigan, Ann Arbor: "In the first year, all MFA students accepted into the program are offered a full tuition waiver and a stipend of $16,000, either through a fellowship or a combination of a gradership and a fellowship, as well as $6,000 in summer funding. The total first year package equals $22,000. Applicants will also be considered, where appropriate, for Rackham Merit Fellowships, which offer, together with the Department of English funding, a stipend and summer-funding package equalling $22,000, as well as health insurance. Second year support includes a complete tuition waiver, stipend (currently for 2013–2014, $18,600), and health care benefits through a Graduate Student Instructorship teaching an undergraduate creative writing or introductory composition course."
University of Minnesota, Minneapolis: "The English Department at the University of Minnesota is committed to providing financial support in the form of teaching assistantships MFA students for three full years.

In addition, grants and fellowships from outside the department may be available, by nomination, to incoming students."
University of Mississippi, Oxford: "Each year we award two incoming students with John and Renée Grisham Fellowships (one in fiction and one in poetry), a $60,000 package that includes full tuition, health care, and an annual stipend of $14,000, renewable for three years. During this time, Grisham fellows have no teaching responsibilities. Other incoming students receive Teaching Assistantships, and the current stipend structure for the Fellowship is $11,500 per year, which includes $250 for the health insurance premium. Along with the stipend, TA's will receive a tuition scholarship from the Graduate School covering resident tuition."

Students must purchase health insurance and pay non-tuition fees. Our MFA program is internationally focused and requires all students to spend extended time abroad, for which they receive financial support from the Black Mountain Institute."
University of New Mexico: "The MFA faculty is committed to supporting its graduate students with teaching assistantships for the full three years it takes most students to complete the program, offering them the opportunity to teach not only Freshman Composition and Expository Writing but Introduction to Creative Writing as well. At UNM, we believe that MFA students should not go wildly into debt while completing their degrees. For this reason we encourage all applicants to our program to apply for teaching assistantships. Our program is small by national standards, but with a relatively small student-faculty ratio and competitive teaching stipends for three years, we believe we offer our MFA students the chance to fully immerse themselves in writing without the exorbitant price tags attached to some other MFA programs."
North Carolina State University: "We admit about ten students/year, in fiction and poetry, and provide stipends and health insurance"

Switzer Demolition Begins Monday
More information is available in this post on MayorSlay.com.
Demolition will not include the three adjacent historic buildings to the north also owned by Clarinet LLC. Clarinet is salvaging the cast iron storefront and much of the decorative limestone from the front elevation for potential reuse.

I recall, from the early 70's, my dad coming home from a sales call to Switzer on the landing. He brought home several complimentary bags of Switzer's, licorice and cherry. It was STILL WARM in the bags! Freshly manufactured and warm off the machine. I can almost still feel the bags in my hands. I'm glad that I have such a good memory from this building, otherwise the criminal act of neglect-- not necessarily perpetrated by the current ownership-- which led to this sad day would be more painful.

What To Know About Hookers
The prostitutes of your community are people who are desperate to earn money. These women are of different nationalities, and their culture is different from the local culture. There are certain things that you should know before dealing with a prostitute.
Some guys may have a problem with prostitutes and think that they will exploit them. This can be true. Some prostitutes will take advantage of the customers for money and make deals with them to use their services for a price. Of course, these are no real prostitutes.
When hiring a prostitute, it is advisable to ask about her character and keep an eye on her every minute of the time. Your safety is important and you should do this. If there is any type of mistreatment, you should report it to the proper authorities.
When hiring a prostitute, you should think about how you want to spend the night. You should also consider who you are going to hire. Many of these prostitutes are expensive because they have to offer protection to you.
When dealing with prostitutes, you should never meet a john at a public place. This is because the area where the john will meet a prostitute is not safe. Any man who meets a prostitute at such a place is sure to be attacked by criminals who have been waiting for the chance to rob a John.
You should also keep in mind that prostitutes are not the same as johns. A prostitute might be a john to you but not to the John who hire her. You should avoid putting yourself in dangerous situations.
You should never let a john near your home or car without having a serious discussion with him. You should also find out what he does with his money. If he wants to go to another city, you should tell him.
As a prostitute, you should never allow a john to sleep with you. Make sure that the john gets exactly what he wants first. You should make sure that you do not put yourself in a position where you have to do something illegal.
Do not engage in sexual activity with a john without your partner knowing it. You should never sell sex without her knowing it either. Most prostitutes do not like to be romantically involved with johns and it is not a good idea.
If you get into a relationship with a prostitute, you should keep your emotions in check. This is especially true if you have gotten into a serious relationship with her. She can be dangerous and you should be aware of the fact that she has the potential to be violent.
A prostitute should never try to force a john to have sex with her. If you do, this is a crime and you should report it. She can even rob you or hit you so you should protect yourself by leaving her alone if she tries to force you to have sex with her.
You should avoid using prostitutes for sex if you do not want to be involved with a prostitute. You should never let your guard down and get involved with a prostitute, unless you want to become a victim of a robbery.

Landcruiser 40 & 60 series 55% low range gears with 8% high range under-drive
This gear set is to suit 4 speed models 08/1980 to 10/1982
To suit:
- Toyota Landcruiser - 40 Series
- Toyota Landcruiser - 60 Series
- 34mm diameter idler shaft
Marks 4WD Adaptors manufacture low range reduction gears to suit many Toyota LandCruiser models. These gears are manufactured in house at our facility in Melbourne, Australia. We make four different kits which suit different vehicle applications and requirements.
The 55% reduction gears give you the biggest reduction we offer and transforms your Toyota into an unstoppable off-road machine. Vehicles fitted with automatic transmissions, standard or other wise can also take advantage of the extra low gearing in low range as a dramatic improvement in engine braking is achieved giving much improved off road performance and increased safety. The fitment of larger tyres will also reduce your low range crawling ability. High range is also given an 8% underdrive with this gear set. This change in ratio can be helpful if your vehicle is struggling after fitting larger diameter tyres
Standard Ratio: Low Range 1.959:1 High Range 1:1
New Ratio: Low Range 3.05:1 High Range 1.08:1
To calculate your vehicle's ratio, click here.
The idler gear design has been upgraded to accept tapered roller bearings. This new design has some outstanding advantages, firstly the tapered bearings eliminate all gear end float, resulting in reduced transfer case gear slap and nil bore wear. Unlike the original needle roller bearings that brinell the running surface of the bore, if the tapered bearing outer surfaces wear they can be easily replaced whilst retaining the same gear.
A Note on Gear Noise: In some installations gear noise or singing will be evident when driving in high and low range. This is due to the gear form, pitch and pressure angle changing from standard to achieve the different ratios required for under / overdriving. There are more than 1000 installations around the world performing flawlessly but don't expect factory quiet gears when changing your transfer case ratio's.

Money (Concept)
money, term that refers to two concepts: the abstract unit of account in terms of which the value of goods, services, and obligations can be compared; and anything that is widely established as a means of payment. Frequently the standard of value also serves as a medium of exchange, but that is not always the case.

House Republicans promote 20-week abortion ban
WASHINGTON (AP) -- House Republican who oppose abortion promoted legislation Wednesday that would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
These Republicans want to move ahead despite recent court decisions that have struck down similar state laws. The GOP lawmakers also are taking on their own leadership, which has shown little desire to hold votes on contentious social issues.
Arizona Rep. Trent Franks, joined by 10 other Republicans and anti-abortion advocates at a news conference, said there was a "good chance" that his bill would see action in the full House this year.
Franks and others said the legislation would gain momentum from the recent conviction of a Philadelphia abortion provider, Dr. Kermit Gosnell, for killing three babies born alive at his clinic.
Franks' bill, which originally would have imposed the 20-week ban only in the District of Columbia, over which Congress has some jurisdiction, was expanded after the Gosnell case.
NARAL Pro-Choice America's president, Ilyse Hogue, said in a statement that Franks was "using this bill in a shameless effort to exploit the terrible tragedy in Pennsylvania where Kermit Gosnell was just convicted of murder for performing illegal abortions."
The news conference came a day after a federal court struck down a 20-week abortion ban in Arizona. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the law violated a woman's constitutionally protected right to terminate a pregnancy before a fetus is able to survive outside the womb. Viability is generally considered to start at 24 weeks.
Nine other states have enacted similar bans and have faced court challenges.
Franks said there was no question in his mind that the decision of the 9th Circuit Court, known as one of the most liberal in the country, would be overturned.
The House Judiciary subcommittee on the Constitution, led by Franks, planned a hearing on the legislation Thursday, but there are no concrete plans for the full House to take up the measure.
Since Republicans took control of the House in 2011, GOP leaders have concentrated on economic and fiscal issues, giving less stress to some of the social issues important to conservatives in the party.
House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Tuesday that fostering jobs was the top priority of the House, adding that the House also would focus on the oversight of the executive branch in the wake of recent scandals.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) As the Bachynski family moved around from one place to another in Canada, John and Yolanda kept track of their children's heights with a piece of wood instead of marks on the wall.
June 12, 1994: Jordan is 4 feet at 5 years old, Dallin 3 feet, 3 1/2 inches at 3.
Sept. 6, 2004: Jordan 6-4 1/2 (he'll grow another two inches in two months) at 15, Dallin 5-11 at 13.
May 10, 2010: Jordan 7-1 1/2 at 20, Dallin 6-11 1/2 at 18.
The final marks were more of an estimation for Jordan, though; the 2X3 they used only went up to 7-1.
``Didn't think we'd need anything bigger,'' John Bachynski said. ``Oops.''
Now, the Bachynski brothers face a new kind of measuring stick, one they've been waiting for pretty much their entire lives: Against each other on a basketball court in a game that means something beyond bragging rights.
After years of battling in the family driveway, the brawny brothers will face each other on opposing teams for the first time Wednesday night when Dallin and the Utah Utes travel to the desert to face Jordan and the Arizona State Sun Devils.
Befitting two 7-foot brothers, this should be big.
``I'm so stoked to play him,'' Dallin said. ``It's all I think about.''
The Bachynskis have waited a long time for this.
Two years apart, their age difference was just enough that they never faced each other on opposing teams, even when they went to different high schools.
As they got older, even the driveway games became scarce.
Jordan suffered an ankle injury his senior season at Centennial High School in Calgary, then spent the next two years in South Florida on a church mission.
When he returned, Dallin was on his way out, leaving for a two-year mission in Croatia after playing a season at Southern Utah.
Now fully grown - Jordan is 7-2, Dallin 7-0 - the brothers are itching to see how they stack up against each other after nearly five years apart.
``My brother has a lot of confidence. Whether that is well-placed or not, we'll find out,'' Jordan said. ``He's been talking a lot, but so have I. It's going to be a battle out there and I'm really excited to go at him.''
It'll be one of college basketball's rarest battles: Two 7-foot brothers playing on opposing teams.
John is 6-foot-5 and was a solid high school player. Yolanda is 6-2 and played collegiately in Canada.
Their daughter, Jessica, is a 6-1 sophomore forward at Utah Valley.
The Bachynskis are all big, but even as Jordan and Dallin shot up the homemade measuring stick, no one saw them growing up to be this tall and certainly not playing Division I basketball against each other.
``It's not something you expect,'' John Bachynski said. ``We never expected them to play DI basketball when they were growing up and then having them both playing with a sister playing DI, it's kind of surreal.''
Jordan and Dallin grew up always trying to top each other, from seeing who could eat more, do more pushups, lift more weight, who could block the other's shot or score over the other.
Monopoly games disintegrated into shouting or shoving matches.
Basketball often was more like wrestling, particularly if someone else was watching.
And, because they were oversized and boisterous, the damage could be extensive, from bloody noses and black eyes to holes in the walls, including a memorable Christmas crash that left Jordan and Dallin spending the afternoon with trowels and plaster.
``It was pretty much a 7-foot hole in the wall because we were wrestling and he either gave me a kidney shot or a punch to the stomach, and I was so mad at him that I picked him up and threw him as hard as I could into the wall,'' Dallin said. ``He ended up kind of going through it and we ended up having to fix it because my mom didn't want to deal with that on Christmas. I do know how to drywall now because of my relationship with my brother.''
Beating his brother has been a driving force for Dallin.
Jordan was always older and bigger, so Dallin spent much of his life trying to catch up to his big brother, live up to his exploits.
The years of getting his shots swatted by Jordan instilled a never-give-up tenacity in Dallin and forced him to develop better ball-handling skills and perimeter shooting.
Now, close to even in size and with a fully-developed game, Dallin gets a shot at showing big bro what he really can do.
``They both work hard, but Dallin has always wanted to catch up,'' Yolanda said. ``He's always been two years younger, two inches shorter. He's tired of being Jordan's little brother and wants to start doing stuff on his own.''
When they meet Wednesday night, it should be more of an even matchup.
Dallin played well early in the season, including a 22-point, 16-rebound performance against Idaho State, and supplanted Jason Washburn as Utah's starting center. He's gone into a bit of a funk since December started, but has been a key contributor off the bench now that Washburn has returned to the starting lineup.
Dallin is shooting 52 percent while averaging 7.6 points, 6.3 rebounds.
Jordan started to play better after becoming more aggressive last season and it's carried over to this year.
He was Arizona State's leading scorer with 17 points in the season opener against Central Arkansas and set a school record with 12 blocked shots while registering the first triple-double in school history against Cal State-Northridge on Dec. 8.
Jordan has 59 blocked shots this season, already fifth in Arizona State history, and is third nationally with 4.82 per game. He's averaging 9.8 points and 7.1 rebounds.
``This will be the first time they'll be on kind of a level playing field,'' John Bachynski said. ``It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.''
One thing's for sure: It'll be big.

The Missouri Department of Transportation says it had no choice but to approve an application by a 9/11 "truther" group to "adopt" a stretch of state highway for litter pickup.
The agency recently OK'd the application from the St. Louis 9/11 Questions Meetup Group under the Adopt-A-Highway program. The approval means the group will have two signs bearing their names erected next month on each end of a half-mile stretch of Olive Boulevard east of Lindbergh Road in the St. Louis area.
In return, the group agrees to pick up litter along the stretch at least four times a year for the next three years.
Some members of the St. Louis 9/11 Questions Meetup Group suggest that the U.S. government may have been involved in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Here's how the group describes itself on its website:
"We are residents of the Greater St. Louis Area (and other areas) concerned about the many disturbing aspects of the 9/11 attacks and interested in finding out more about those events. We have many disagreements, but we agree that 9/11 is worth inquiring into."
Holly Dentner, a state Transportation Department spokeswoman, said the state can't turn away a group's Adopt-A-Highway application based on the group's viewpoints. As long as the applicant fulfills the program's obligations, which include collecting litter at least four times a year and submitting an activity report to the state, it can participate, she said.
"We can't deny an adopter group a section of highway to pick up trash just based on their belief or opinions," she told NBC News. "Should they not fulfill the obligations, we can cancel and remove the signs."
A federal appeals court ruling in 2000 limited Missouri's ability to pick and choose highway "adopters." The 8th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a federal judge's ruling that Missouri could not reject the Ku Klux Klan's application to adopt a stretch of Interstate 55 south of St. Louis. The Missouri Legislature later voted to name the stretch of highway in question the "Rosa Parks Highway," in honor of the black civil rights activist from Alabama. The KKK was eventually dropped from the Adopt-A-Highway program for failing to pick up litter.
Other states have had Adopt-A-Highway controversies as well. In Georgia, a KKK chapter sued in September after the state rejected the white supremacist group's application. In 2005, the American Nazi Party adopted a stretch of rural highway outside Salem, Ore., but their signs were quickly vandalized and later removed.

Dentner said the St. Louis 9/11 Questions group is among more than 4,000 adopter groups who pick up a total of about 20,000 bags of trash along 6,463 miles of roads across the state a year.
The program saves the state at least $1 million a year in trash collection costs, said Tom Blair, assistant district engineer for state Transportation Department in St. Louis. "Without the Adopt-A-Highway program, all roadsides in Missouri would be much dirtier," he said.
Donald Stahl, organizer of the St. Louis 9/11 Questions Meetup Group, believes the World Trade Center towers did not collapse strictly as a result of being struck by airplanes hijacked by terrorists. He says they may have been brought down by a controlled demolition.
As for why his group wants to adopt a highway: "Like all the other groups that do it, we like the free publicity," he told KSDK.
Stahl did not respond to an email request from NBC News for comment.
The group's philosophy doesn't sit well with Warren Nelson, of the St. Louis suburb of Kirkwood. He and his wife lost their son, David Nelson, in the Sept. 11 attacks.
"Certainly we would not be in agreement with an organization that believes that our U.S. government had anything to do at all with 9/11," he said. "No way."
As to highway signs bearing the group's name, Nelson said: "I would not want to drive down and see a sign like that."

My Mission
I founded and designed AnchoredInKnowledge.com in 2009. I knew that I wanted to help people learn what they didn't know but didn't know exactly how. After graduate school and landing an internship in a teaching hospital, I updated this website with the intention of marketing my services to only children and adolescents.
Over the past 10 years of consulting with parents, families, and caregivers and treating suffering young people internationally, I realized a strong need for navigation through the muddy waters of the mental health system. During the same time I became certified in trauma therapy. This is when I developed Anchored Child & Family Counseling.
Through the counseling relationship I strive to walk with my clients through tough times, help them explore what their challenges mean to them, and motivate them to find the faith, purpose, and peace to survive.
I am a licensed and Board certified mental health therapist working with psychological trauma, self-harm, and suicidal teens including angry, oppositional, or anxious and depressed youths.
When I'm not working with kids I am helping confused and stressed parents, families, and caregivers navigate relationships, grief, loss, and the mental health system.
I bring both personal and professional experience with challenges of living and I combine these things in my work.
I hope this practice serves as a starting point and resource for you.

I believe some of my BN supporter friends will tell me I TOLD YOU SO…. But to be honest I have stated here in this blog so many times, that I never put my 100% trust on DAP. Safely said, I not really clear with their political agenda. Nobody explain it to me and I can't find any reliable source to satisfy my curiosity.
But Lim Kit Siang statement last night is plain STUPID. What the hell that apek thinking? He represent DAP Central Executive Committee (CEC) indicate that they not agree with PAS assemblyman to become Perak Menteri Besar. They or in particular he, Lim Kit Siang himself want DAP or PKR rep instead. Stupid Apek…!
I understand his argument and politically frustration. PAS won merely 6 seats compare to PKR 7 and DAP 18. But, he can't direct his stupid view to press or in this case, publicly posted it on his blog. By all people, he should understand how desperate PAS-PKR-DAP need our confident right now. All eyes in
Beside demolished PAS-PKR-DAP reputation Lim Kit Siang also prove to rest of
Also come to my knowledge, this Lim Kit Siang protest just a drama set up by DAP leadership to maintain their popularity among Chinese. So, Chinese that support them will know that DAP not tie any kind of alliance with PAS, since most Chinese hate PAS. Honestly DAP not really care what happen in Perak, Selangor and Kedah. They just want
What ever the reason, but I can't accept Lim Kit Siang try to challenge my beloved Raja Nazrin Shah. I believe most Perakian also share same feeling with me. Thanks God 18 Perak DAP DUN members refuse to follow his instruction. Stupid apek…!
Update (noon):
Lim Kit Siang posted an apology to Perak Sultan. But sorry la apek, aku tahu kau memang kurang ajar. Damage has been done.

Blue Collar Gourmet Food at Big Guys Sausages in Berwyn
I don't like imitation things. Whether it's turkey hot dogs and turkey reubens at the low end, or a deconstructed lobster Philly steak sandwich bánh mì at the high end, all you usually do is wreck the balance of something classic and perfect. In fact, "a take on" is almost always a sign of a dish that isn't going to work. If it works, nobody calls it "a take on," which is an upfront excuse, like calling something "interesting." If it works, it isn't a take, it just is.
So allow me to recommend the take on classic BBQ hot links at Big Guys Sausage Shop. Heck, let me recommend Big Guys Sausage Shop in Berwyn, period, since it has not yet appeared at this site. Brendan O'Connor, the main guy, is a lifelong Berwynite who decided to take over a hot dog stand location that had once been a Parky's (a big name in old school hotdoggery in that area). But, as he told me for this Reader piece, he didn't want to just reheat Vienna products like a million other hot dog joints.
In particular, he didn't like any of the chicken sausages he could find on the market, so he started making his own of those, and soon progressed to almost everything but the hot dogs themselves (which are Vienna). What's nice about O'Connor's sausages is that nothing is too out there; he calls his food "blue collar gourmet food," which pretty much sums up an approach of quality with lack of pretension. The sausages don't have wacky names and weird toppings: most are just what they are (Italian Chicken Sausage, Cheddar Brat), and even a Greek-themed sausage will be lamb louganika with pretty classically Greek toppings (onions and an orange-fennel-tinged yogurt sauce).
And my favorite, the Hot Link, is an excellent rendition of a fat, spicy smoked Chicago hot link, topped with barbecue sauce with some kick and soothing pineapple cole slaw. Simple and to the point; it isn't served from behind bulletproof glass, but other than that it has all the other satisfactions of a trip to a South side barbecue joint on a bun.
Add in fresh-cut fries (which come in a few variations, like garlic fries) and you have plenty of reason for a journey to the near west suburbs. But if you need one more, O'Connor's more creative side comes out on one special sausage each month. You just missed November's Turducken, but you're just in time for the reindeer sausage with red wine, blueberries and garlic: the Rudolph.

With less than three weeks until the U.S. economy falls off the so-called "fiscal cliff," the top Democrat on the House Budget Committee said Congress needs to act quickly to beat the deadline.
But he's not holding his breath.
"I would say you've certainly got to get something by Christmas if you want to practically get it done by the end of the year," Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said, adding that, ideally, some outline should be in place by the end of the week to prevent negotiations from spilling over into the holiday season. "I don't assign a high probability to the end of the week, but I do assign a high hope."
Van Hollen addressed members of the media at a breakfast organized by the Christian Science Monitor this morning at the St. Regis Hotel in Washington, D.C.
During the breakfast, Van Hollen said House Speaker John Boehner might have to bring a plan to the table that could pass without majority support from the Republican caucus — something he has been unwilling to do in the first two years of his speakership. Van Hollen expressed concern as to whether Boehner, an Ohio Republican, would make such a move before the official vote for his re-election as House Speaker on Jan. 3.
Moving forward without support from a majority of a Republicans in the House would violate the "majority of the majority doctrine," a recent Republican governing principle that says the Speaker of the House won't move forward with an action if it doesn't have the support of a majority of GOP lawmakers, even if it has the backing of a majority of all House members.
This is also referred to as the Hastert Rule, named after former speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., who pioneered the practice.
"I'm getting increasingly concerned that one of the reasons why the speaker has decided to string out these discussions is that he wants to wait until Jan. 3 when the election for Speaker takes place," Van Hollen said. "He's concerned that any agreement he reaches, if it violated the so-called Hastert Rule, could undermine for him and his caucus and would make it more difficult for him Jan. 3.
"I would hope he would be the interest of getting an agreement before House Republican politics."
Van Hollen said he believes Congress will pass the tax cuts on middle income families before the end of the year, which he estimates will solve many of the most crucial aspects of the so-called fiscal cliff.
"The biggest tax increase happens if we do nothing," he said.
