Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin, Jr, KBE, (April 16, 1889 December 25, 1977) was a British born, actor, the most famous actor in early to mid Hollywood cinema era, and also a notable director. His principal character was "The Tramp": a vagrant with the refined manners and dignity of a gentleman who wears a tight coat, oversized pants and shoes, a derby or bowler hat, a bamboo cane, and his signature toothbrush moustache. Chaplin was one of the most creative personalities in the silent film era; he acted in, directed, scripted, produced, and eventually scored his own films.

Ornamental Grass
Create simple yet dynamic landscapes with grasses.
Ornamental Grasses bring great richness of texture, variety, and beauty to set off your finest flowers. These are the darlings of garden designers and are easy to grow and maintain.
Grasses add interest to a garden by changing with the seasons. They don't disappear; instead, they evolve throughout the year. One season brings the striking foliage, then perhaps the elegant plume of bloom, and in the fall, another look as the plant prepares for the winter. All make wonderful accents in the garden.

Lately I have been hearing about a lot of people switching from vegan to vegetarian. Ex: Ellen-she mentioned eating eggs the other day on her show. I've been strictly vegan for over a year now and I don't miss dairy or eggs. It is a challenge to cook without any, but there are plenty of recipes out there.Any thoughts?
For optimal health I choose to avoid eggs and dairy. It's not really about if I'm called vegan or vegetarian, it's about what makes me feel good and lets me age as healthy as possible.
Vikki ~
If it is just a matter of the challenge, lets talk about cooking without eggs and dairy.
Even though it may not be such a challenge to cook without eggs and dairy once you get the hang of it, probably every one of us has a particular recipe they have not remaster vegan style, yet. Maybe we can help each other.
I have made homemade pasta with no eggs... just flour, semolina flour, water... it works just fine.
Any milk, in baking or cooking, can be replaced with a nut milk which is most appropriate for the flavor of the dish.
Eggs are generally not needed either, but different dishes require different approaches. Applesauce / banana is fine in baked goods. Flax seed "egg" is good in burgers and things that may need binding.
And dare I talk about cashew cream OMG! it is delicious. I much prefer using it for creams and icings and toppings to the commercially available "pretend" toppings.
But what about that one thing you haven't cracked yet (pardon the pun). I have not yet found the perfect pancake or french toast, although I recently elected my best "close enough" candidates. The crunchy Country French Toast from food for life is the best I have tried. You can find it here:
The best pancakes I have found for my taste so far are also related to PCRM, the Chai Spice Pancakes from the meal plan. You can find it here:
I'd appreciate any hints on even better options, and would be happy to share tricks I have discovered or developed with anyone who has a particular food they haven't mastered vegan style yet. There are more than a few others here would I am sure would do the same.

Perfected pancakes1 cup flour (I use pastry flour made from whole wheat berries), 2 t.baking powder, 1 1/3 cup soy or almond milk, 1/3 cup stevia, 1 t.vanilla.I like to place frozen blueberries or pecans on top while they are on the griddle.
French toast1/2 cup soy milk, 3T.flour,1/4 t.cinnamon, 1 t. vanilla, 4 pieces of bread. Soak 1 minute each side.
You really didn't mean 1/3 cup stevia did you?
I imagine they would be just as good with no stevia, especially if I plan to use maple syrup
Yes, 1/3 cup stevia-the kind that measures like sugar. It comes in a big green bag here.Stevia in the raw.

Oh my, what are they doing to it to give it volume? Luckily I don't need my pancakes to be so sweet, but a lot of people use it here too. I just may not have noticed the new bulkier version because I don't use it.

UGA vs. Notre Dame? Check. Now, bring on Texas!
- 3:07 pm Saturday, June 28th, 2014 by Bill King
With the long-rumored Georgia-Notre Dame home-and-home football scheduling deal finally a reality this week, a lot of UGA supporters are already planning on trying to be among the 8,000 Bulldog fans who'll get tickets to the Sept. 9, 2017, game in South Bend.
With the two schools only having played once before (and that resulting in a national championship for the Bulldogs), a regular season pairing of Georgia and Notre Dame is a dream matchup.
And while it's true such big-time scheduling deals offer enough complications (mainly loss of one home game) that you're not likely to see them on an every-season [More]

|city state/province country
|Excellent coffee scale (4/5)
|Jan 6, 2012
|Karl Schultheisz
|State College Pe US
|A great scale for measuring coffee, water and spices. Using it for baking is a little more difficult since the weighing surface is so small, but it still does the job well. The 1 g resolution makes it great for small, precise quantities, while the 5 kg limit gives it versatility. It took me a few weeks to realize that the "sound" function is only meant for measuring items that obscure the display. After a few months of daily use, my Pico ceased to turn on, and some of the plastic elements inside seemed to break in the absence of any mishandling. I am trying to get a replacement from Escali, as the device has a lifetime warranty.

My friend Amanda had a beautiful wedding. As a close friend, I offered to help her by checking the tables for items left behind at the end of the night. As one of the last to leave, I saw the "tear down" of the event space.
Most everything was packaged up and sent back with the rental company or the wedding planner…but the gorgeous flower arrangements I knew she'd spent hours slaving over? Amanda had asked her guests to take the centerpieces home, but unfortunately, very few did. At the end of the night, most of them were unceremoniously crammed into trash bags and carted off to the dumpster.
When it comes to leftover wedding flowers, just about any option is better than that. If you're charitably minded, you don't just want a "better" option – you want the best option. Here are I Do Foundation's best tips for donating your wedding flowers:
Where to donate your flowers
Local hospitals, nursing homes, and rehab, foster care, and hospice centers are all places in need of cheer. Don't know how to find the closest one? A Google search for "hospice center" (nursing home, foster care center, etc.) and your zip code will give you names and locations of local places.
Call ahead
Some hospitals can't take flower donations due to allergy-related restrictions. Call ahead to verify that your chosen hospital or center can accept the donation and receive it the day after your event.
Ask for help
Staying late at your own wedding or having a long list of responsibilities the next day can really kill your post-Big-Day buzz. Ask friends, family members, or members of the bridal party to handle the donation process – or, at the very least, have them pick up the arrangements at the end of the night and load them into a car for you. If you have a wedding planner or day of coordinator, he or she may be willing to handle this for you.
Donating your floral arrangements is another wonderful way to spread your love and happiness to others—just imagine the smiles they'll create!
PS – Interested in donating other items from your wedding? Check out our previous posts about donating your wedding gown and donating leftover food. Another fun idea? Take leftover cake to your local firemen.

Why it's called the Dexter Room
Each Carriage House room is named after a racehorse owned by the Bonners, who owned Hampton Terrace at the turn of the century. They were the most famous owners of racehorses in the country at that time.
Born 1858, Dexter was "wild as a hawk and always coming to grief," but his speed was so great and trotting action so perfect that he was sold for $400 as an unbroken 4-year-old. He made his debut as a racehorse on May 4, 1864 and won in straight heats. In 1865, Dexter lost only once, to Lady Thorn. In 1866, he won 25 of 26 starts. The next year, he beat the great Goldsmith Maid and then won five successive races against Lady Thorn.
In 1867, Dexter broke the world record twice. On July 30, 1867, Dexter won in 2:19, setting the new world record, which was previously 2:19-3/4 set by Flora Temple in 1859. Two weeks later, he trotted 2:17-1/4 in Buffalo to further lower the record. After three more wins, he retired. Dexter was purchased in September 1867 by Robert Bonner for $35,000 and was Mr. Bonner's favorite road horse. In 1868, pulling 319 pounds of wagon and driver, Dexter trotted a mile in 2:21-3/4, according to the New York Times. Dexter died April 21, 1888.
"Hurrah for Dexter! Long live the horse of the century!" Scribner's Magazine <p >Between 1859 and 1870, Robert Bonner bought 13 horses at a total investment of $162,000. By his retirement in 1890, Bonner had spent a total of over $500,000 on race horses, the equivalent of $11,000,000 today.

The new logo is ok but the red just doesn't work. I agree with Mike about the full size banner also. The old logo had cool colors I thought. I prefer earthy tones.
The layout, as Jim pointed out, is a little too busy. It's a little hard on the eyes.
I'm sorry to sound negative. I don't mean to since I know a lot of time and energy went into the creation of this.
Is it too late to ask for the FORUMS link to stand out more?

Mine is off-centered, all the way over to the left. Is this is how it's supposed to look?
Red Logo and the forums are blue.
Hmmmm.......... The logo is ok. I liked the previous one better because it denoted the wind better.
IMHO, the forum style needs to change to better match the new logo.

I have to say the rollout was rather impressive. Timed perfectly with the 2007 annual report that came in the mail today.
As Scot put it so eloquently, "moving away from the 15 year old teal and purple logo..."
I think its going to look very sharp on t-shirts and outerwear.
I too like the new logo. And the Annual Report came in the mail today which was reading it.
Since I have worked with color blind people before, I am more sensitive to color stuff. Quite often they can not see red things. This is why most web sites stay away from red.

Fins Bois
Cognac is rarely born of a single eau-de-vie or a single growing area, but generally from a blend of different ages and crus, sometimes up to a hundred of them.
It can be made also exclusively from certain "cru", for example exclusively from "Grande Champagne", but of different ages.
Fins Bois : 37,000 hectares of soil. characterized by quick aging environment. A subtle flowery bouquet characterizes this eau de vie. The largest, and by far the intriguing cru, is Fins Bois. Geographically, it rings the other three crus. It lies, approximately, in the triangle between the towns of Rouilliac, Matha and Pons. It has a rich, full, strong aromas with a touch of the maritime climate.

I am brand new to this forum and Martin bows, but have had experience with bowhunting for about 30 years now. However, my equipment is 30 years old and I'm finally ready to upgrade....that's why I'm here. I live in a pretty remote area and there are no archery shops nearby, so I'm counting on forum members to answer my questions before I order a bow.
I have been leaning toward purchasing a Martin bow and have narrowed my choices down to the Warthog, Firecat, or Firehawk. I want to use the bow for deer hunting, both mule deer and whitetail.
Although I have been shooting a bow and killing deer with it for 30 years and have actually killed 2 deer with a bow this season, I have never even seen a release except for when I've watched bowhunting shows on tv. I have always used my fingers...one over and two under and I feel pretty confident that this is the way that I would like to continue shooting. However, I'm not opposed to trying a release...maybe I'll like it?....but I would like the option of using my fingers if that is the way I'd like to shoot. So, my question is about using fingers vs a release on these new bows. As I said, I have watched bowhunting shows on tv and have never seen anyone using their fingers. Is this something that people just don't do anymore? If I purchase a new warthog or firecat will I be able to use my fingers if I want to or is their some reason that I will be restricted to using a release? It seems that I have read some posts on here that described cables coming off because of people using their fingers to draw the bow. Is this a problem I need to be aware of before deciding to buy one of these bows to shoot with my fingers?
Basically, at this point, I guess I just need some knowledgeable people to explain the use of a release and to let me know whether I would be able to shoot with my fingers on a new warthog or firecat if I chose to shoot that way. I appreciate any help that anyone is willing to offer.

Economic innovation in Michigan grew in the first quarter of 2008, according to UM-Dearborn study
August 25, 2008
DEARBORN / Aug. 25, 2008---Innovative economic activity in Michigan grew at the beginning of this year, rising from 89.9 in the fourth quarter of 2007 to 96.0 in the first quarter of 2008, according to an innovation index developed by scholars at the University of Michigan-Dearborn School of Management.
Despite being lower than the reading for the first quarter of 2007, which was 100.0, the increase follows three successive declining quarters.
The late 2007 numbers might have been depressed by the great uncertainty as to our state business tax, and with that uncertainty resolved, innovative activity rebounded even with a depressed national economy, according to Lee Redding, associate professor of business economics and director of the Innovation Index at the UM-Dearborn School of Management.
The quarterly index, a project of the schools Center for Innovation Research, or iLabs, provides a summary measure of economic innovation activity in the state of Michigan.
The index was developed to track accelerations and decelerations in economic innovation in Michigan based on calculations of employment of innovation workers, trends in venture capital, trademark applications, incorporation activity, small business loans and gross job creation.
Five of those six components showed increases during the first quarter of the year, Redding said.
Among the positive indicators, incorporation activity boomed at the beginning of this year, up almost 25 percent from the previous quarter, and after falling for three straight quarters.
Trademark applications also reversed a fourth quarter decline and rose 6 percent in the first quarter of 2008, recording the highest level since the first quarter of 2006.
Venture capital also continued its recovery from low levels in the third quarter of 2007, Redding said.
In addition, the state experienced an increase of innovation workers in the state, Redding said, as federal data indicated an increase in the fraction of Michigan workers employed in science and engineering in the first quarter.
Overall, the reported number of new jobs created by new companies or companies adding jobs was approximately 226,000 in the fourth quarter of 2007, a very slight increase over the previous third quarter. (Due to data availability, this item enters the index calculation one quarter late.)
The only negative factor on the first quarter index was in the number of loans arranged by the Detroit office of the Small Business Administration. Since peaking in the second quarter of 2006, this activity has dropped in six of the seven subsequent quarters, Redding said.
We developed the UM-Dearborn Innovation Index to evaluate innovative activity in the state in a timely way, Redding said.
Many innovation studies have delays of two years or more. Weve identified a number of economic innovation variables that are available with relatively short delays, making it possible for us to calculate an innovation index for a given quarter five months after the end of the quarter.
The Innovation Index for the second quarter of 2008 will be released in early December.
Redding collaborates on the project with Anne-Louise Statt, a lecturer in business economics at UMDearborn, and Gary Hein, who graduated from the School of Management earlier this spring.

Hepatitis B
What Asian and Pacific Islander Americans Need to Know

- Why are Asian and Pacific Islander Americans at higher risk?
- What are the symptoms of chronic hepatitis B?
- Who is at risk for hepatitis B?
- How can I protect myself and others from hepatitis B?

- Where can I get more information about hepatitis B?
- Acknowledgments
Did you know that Asian and Pacific Islander Americans and other foreign-born Americans are at higher risk for chronic hepatitis B, which can lead to liver failure and liver cancer?
What is hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B is a liver disease spread through contact with blood, semen, or other body fluids from a person infected with the hepatitis B virus. The disease is most commonly spread from an infected mother to her infant at birth. Hepatitis B is also spread through sex, wound-to-wound contact, and contact with items that may have blood on them, such as shaving razors, toothbrushes, syringes, and tattoo and body piercing needles.
Hepatitis B is not spread through casual contact such as shaking hands or hugging; nor is it spread by sharing food or beverages, by sneezing and coughing, or through breastfeeding.
What is chronic hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B may start as a brief, flulike illness. Most healthy adults and children older than 5 completely recover after the body's immune system gets rid of the virus.
Hepatitis B becomes chronic when the body's immune system can't get rid of the virus. Over time, having the virus can lead to inflammation of the liver; scar tissue in the liver, called cirrhosis; or liver cancer. Inflammation is the painful red swelling that results when tissues of the body become infected. Young children and people with weakened immune systems are especially at risk. People who were infected as infants have a 90 percent chance of developing chronic hepatitis B.1
1Weinbaum CM, Williams I, Mast EE et al. Recommendations for identification and public health management of persons with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Recommendations and Reports. 2008 September 19;57(RR–8):1–20.
Why are Asian and Pacific Islander Americans at higher risk?
Since 1986, a hepatitis B vaccine has been available and should be given to newborns and children in the United States. The vaccine, however, is unavailable—or has only recently become available—in many parts of the world. You are at higher risk for hepatitis B if you or your mother was born in a region of the world where hepatitis B is common, meaning 2 percent or more of the population is chronically infected with the hepatitis B virus.1 In most Asian and Pacific Island nations, 8 to 16 percent of the population is chronically infected.2
2 Custer B, Sullivan SD, Hazlet TK, Iloeje U, Veenstra DL, Kowdley KV. Global epidemiology of hepatitis B virus. Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology. 2004 November;38(10 Suppl 3):S158–S168.
What are the symptoms of chronic hepatitis B?
Hepatitis B is called a "silent killer" because many people have no symptoms, so the disease often progresses unnoticed for years. Unfortunately, many people first learn they have chronic hepatitis B when they develop symptoms of severe liver damage, which include
- yellowish eyes and skin, called jaundice
- a swollen stomach or ankles
- tiredness
- nausea
- weakness
- loss of appetite
- weight loss
- spiderlike blood vessels, called spider angiomas, that develop on the skin
Who is at risk for hepatitis B?
Anyone can get hepatitis B, but some people are at higher risk, including
- people who were born to a mother with hepatitis B
- people who have close household contact with someone infected with the hepatitis B virus
- people who have lived in parts of the world where hepatitis B is common, including most Asian and Pacific Island nations
- people who are exposed to blood or body fluids at work
- people on hemodialysis
- people whose sex partner(s) has hepatitis B
- people who have had more than one sex partner in the last 6 months or have a history of sexually transmitted disease
- injection drug users
- men who have sex with men
How can I protect myself and others from hepatitis B?
Get tested if you are from an Asian or Pacific Island nation or other region where the hepatitis B virus is common. The sooner you get tested, the sooner you can take steps to protect yourself and others.
A health care provider can test your blood to see if you are currently infected or were infected in the past. If you test positive, your doctor may measure virus and liver enzyme levels in your blood to determine if the virus is active or causing liver injury. The doctor may use ultrasound—a procedure that uses sound waves to create images of the body's internal tissues and organs—to screen for liver cancer, also called hepatocellular carcinoma. You may not need treatment right away, but you will need periodic tests to monitor the health of your liver. Encourage your family members and other close personal contacts to get tested.
Hepatitis B is preventable. Get vaccinated if you have not been infected. The hepatitis B vaccine is given in three shots over 6 months. You must get all three shots to be fully protected. The vaccine is safe for people of all ages, including pregnant women and infants.
If you think you have been recently exposed to the hepatitis B virus, see your doctor right away. The first dose of hepatitis B vaccine combined with hepatitis B immune globulin—an injection of antibodies that temporarily protects against hepatitis B infection—may prevent infection.
No cure exists for hepatitis B, but several medicines are approved for treating chronic hepatitis B. The goal of treatment is to reduce the risk of liver damage, liver cirrhosis, and liver cancer by decreasing liver inflammation and the amount of virus in the body. Current medicines do not completely get rid of the virus, so treatment is often lifelong. People with chronic hepatitis B should avoid alcohol, drugs, supplements, and herbal medicines that may harm the liver.
How can I protect my baby from hepatitis B?
Getting tested for hepatitis B is especially important for pregnant women. If you are not infected, get the vaccine. If you have hepatitis B, make sure the doctor and staff that deliver your baby know so they can minimize your baby's risk of infection. The hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immune globulin should be given to your baby immediately after birth, greatly reducing the chance of infection.
Where can I get more information about hepatitis B?

Talking Points
By Phyllis Bennis, Institute for Policy Studies, 28 May 2008
This is a period of rapid and dramatic decline of American economic
power around the world, and that, along with massive anger directed
at U.S. policies around the world, has resulted in a precipitous
drop in U.S. diplomatic and political influence. As a result, for
those committed to maintaining Washington's superpower status, choosing
military force to assert U.S. global reach becomes more, not less
likely. Forcing a real end to the U.S. occupation of Iraq is more
difficult than ever. U.S. military support to Israel is higher than
ever. And the danger of a U.S. military strike on Iran remains as
high as ever.
Despite and because of its huge military presence and the continuing
horror of the occupation and war in Iraq, there is no question that
Washington has lost significant influence in the Middle East. U.S.
efforts to dominate and control the region's governments, resources,
and people are failing. U.S.-backed governments and movements across
the Middle East are rejecting the Bush administration's demand that
they isolate, sanction, and threaten the other governments and movements
that Washington deems the bad guys - those linked to Iran. Instead
the U.S.-backed governments are themselves launching new bi-, tri-,
and multi-lateral negotiations with "the bad guys" outside
of U.S. control, and often in direct contradiction to U.S. wishes.
The Bush administration is making rosy-eyed claims that the Arab
world is unified behind its anti-Iran campaign. One of the White
House spin shops last week bragged about "growing agreement
among regional leaders regarding Iran's challenge to peace and security."
But in fact, the Middle East is far from unified behind White House
positions, and the U.S. is losing. U.S. allies are refusing to toe
Washington's dangerous line of "no negotiations with anyone
we say is a bad guy."
From Baghdad to Beirut, from Ramallah to Ankara and Cairo to Tel
Aviv, U.S.-backed governments are talking to, even signing agreements
with those Washington loves to hate - those allied with Iran. The
occupation-backed Iraqi government is rebuffing the Bush administration's
anti-Iran crusade. The Gulf Cooperation Council - the Saudi-led
union of pro-U.S. Arab petro-states - welcomed Iran as a neighboring
participant and potential trading partner at their annual meeting
last month. The pro-U.S. Palestinian Authority in Ramallah is engaged
in backroom unity talks with Hamas, and Israel is quietly negotiating
a ceasefire with Hamas, with both processes led by the U.S.-backed
government of Egypt. The U.S.-backed government in Beirut just signed
a formal agreement with the elected Hezbollah-led parliamentary
opposition, giving Hezbollah significant new power and allowing
the election of a new president not known for pro-U.S. views. Bush's
high-profile "talking equals appeasement" speech in the
Israeli Knesset failed to persuade Tel Aviv not to talk to Syria,
and Turkey announced it has been hosting Syrian-Israeli negotiations.
One unnamed Bush administration official called the new peace talks
"a slap in the face."
The impact of all these developments remains uncertain. Some of
these new initiatives may fail, and some (particularly the current
version of an Israeli-Syrian rapprochement) may create serious dangers
even if they succeed. But what is clear is that it hasn't been a
good season for the war buffs of the Bush administration. Perhaps
in response to this increasingly public Middle East repudiation
of the U.S. "isolate Iran" strategy, some key Bush administration
officials are for the moment backpedaling away from some of their
earlier rhetoric. Even as Hillary Clinton speaks of "obliterating"
Iran (presumably including its 70 million people), Bush's favorite
general David Petraeus now claims that in dealing with Iran, he
favors diplomacy as a first choice. At least for the moment.
So we have to figure out how to build on the changing discourse,
understand the still-rising dangers, and turn the work of the anti-war
movement to the strategic task of transforming anti-war public opinion
into real anti-war policy.
** On Iran - softening the rhetoric - for the moment
Largely because of last December's publication of the national Intelligence
Estimate stating that Iran did not have a nuclear weapon or a nuclear
weapons program and was not even necessarily interested in building
one, anti-Iran rhetoric has been rapidly shifting from Iran-is-building-a-nuclear-bomb
to Iran-is-killing-U.S.-troops-in-Iraq-by-arming-militias. Weeks
ago the Pentagon claimed it was about to go public to show stashes
of weapons allegedly captured in Karbala and from Moqtada al Sadr's
forces in Basra earlier this year. Those weapons were supposedly
produced in Iran, thus allegedly "proving" Iranian support
for Iraqi militias - but instead the whole propaganda effort collapsed
when U.S. inspectors said none of the weapons or ammunition could
actually be traced to Iran. As Gareth Porter described it, the effort
was aimed at "breaking down Congressional and public resistance
to the idea that Iranian bases supporting the meddling would have
to be attacked." But the effort failed. The Baghdad press briefing
was cancelled. At around the same time, the U.S.-backed Iraqi prime
minister Nuri al Maliki sent his own delegation to Iran to discuss
"evidence" provided to the Iraqi government by the U.S.
about Iranian "meddling" in Iraq. The delegation returned
to Baghdad, quietly, and the Iraqi government announced it was creating
its own investigation. Furious with the Maliki government's refusal
to join its anti-Iran crusade, one U.S. official told the Los Angeles
Times, "we were blindsided by this."
And now two influential 'realist' figures - Zbigniew Brzezinsky
and General William Odom, writing in the Washington Post havecalled
for an end to the current Bush policy of small carrots and heavy
sticks which, they say "may work with donkeys but not with
serious countries." The U.S., they say, would do better "if
the White House abandoned its threats of military action and its
calls for regime change."
** But changing discourse and winning broad public opposition to
the Bush strategy of endless war in the Middle East, does not yet
mean an end to the danger.
As we have seen with the Iraq war, even massive shifts in public
opinion do not inevitably change policy: even 70% U.S. public opposition
to the war has not translated into a shift in policy to actually
end the war and occupation.
** On Iraq - the discourse and the Congress
The House of Representatives' recent "no" vote on the
supplemental war bill, defeating Bush's request for $168 billion
for funding the Iraq and Afghanistan wars for more than another
year, clearly reflected the anti-war movement's success (along with
the effect of continuing U.S. military casualties and continued
U.S. failure) in transforming public discourse on the war. Aside
from partisan posturing, there is no way that 149 Democrats would
risk actually voting against the war funding unless they could count
on public opinion being against the war and in favor of Congress
refusing to pay for it. We have created a new reality - in which
the political price for supporting the war is higher than for opposing
the war. And now even the majority of Democrats aren't willing to
pay that higher price.
Whatever the intentions of war-mongering Republicans or the opportunistic
Democratic leadership, and even if the decision is overturned later,
the vote simultaneously reflected and enhanced the political legitimacy
of a clear anti-war position. For the anti-war movement, it was
a huge victory, bringing to fruition - even if only temporarily
- at least half of the goal articulated by AFSC's slogan "not
one more death, not one more dollar."
** Israel Talks - to isolate Iran? But occupations continue
The new Israeli-Syrian negotiations, and Israel's unofficial talks
with Hamas stand in direct defiance of Bush's Knesset speech less
than two weeks ago in which he equated "negotiations with the
terrorists and radicals" and World War II-era appeasement of
Hitler. As the New York Times described it, Israel has become "the
latest example of a country that has decided it is better to deal
with its foes than to ignore them."
Certainly talking is better than not talking. But not all talking
is serious, and motivations must be considered as well. Prime Minister
Olmert is under investigation for bribery, and may soon be indicted.
He has pledged to step down from his position if he is charged,
but in the meantime he is opening and announcing new "diplomatic
initiatives" at a furious pace, presumably at least partly
to pressure prosecutors not to risk Israel's claimed national interests
by forcing him to resign.
IRAQ - on the ground
The fighting in Sadr City between the Mahdi Army militia led by
Moqtada al-Sadr, and the U.S. occupation-backed Iraqi Army, has
at least temporarily subsided. But the relative calm is likely to
be short-lived, as neither military force was militarily defeated
and the issues of occupation and disparities of power remain unresolved.
The Mahdi fighters simply stopped fighting at a certain point, and
whether they remain in the city, or have regrouped somewhere else,
remains uncertain. Sadr City, like much of the rest of Baghdad,
is now characterized by high cement walls newly built by U.S. and
Iraqi Army troops that divide the city into tiny enclaves. As one
NPR reporter described Baghdad today, the city remains perhaps the
most militarized city in the world, where one cannot move more than
100 yards before encountering a military checkpoint.
In Iraq, this is what democracy looks like.

Wolman is a photographer who's always heard the music, felt the power, dreamed the dream, and his camera takes the present into posterity. Settling in Haight-Ashbury in the 60's, Wolman landed not only in the literal city of seismic change but at the absolute figurative center of change itself. Surrounded by Janis and the Grateful Dead in close-by digs, Wolman was soon accompanying journalist Jann Wenner to the now famous and genre-defining Mills College conference on rock music. Wenner happened to be the founder of Rolling Stone magazine. He liked Wolman's style, offered him a job and Wolman launched as the first official document-er of the new psychedelic age. Beginning with the magazine's opening issue, Wolman's photographs were windows on the parade of the different, the delightful and the doomed, and his pictures became the gold standard by which rock photography would be measured.

Cub Pack 306 holds annual banquet
On Feb. 16, Cub Scout Pack 306 hosted its annual Blue and Gold Banquet to participate in the nationwide celebration of the Boy Scouts' founder, Lord Baden Powell, who started Boy Scouts more than 100 years ago. During the event, scouts with awards earned throughout the year, volunteer leaders and special awards earned were recognized.
This year's Blue and Gold Banquet included the Pack's first Arrow of Light (AOL) and Crossover Ceremony since Pack 306 began. Fourth- and fifth-grade boys who had completed their Cub Scout journey were transitioned into a Boy Scout Troop, hopefully on their way to becoming an Eagle Scout.
The AOL award is the equivalent in Cub Scouts to the Eagle Scout rank in Boy Scouts and is one of only two awards that can be worn on the Boy Scout uniform as a carryover from their Cub Scouting journey.
The three Cub Scouts who earned their Arrow of Light award were Joseph Najarian, Charlie Durham and Michael Burnette.
This was a long journey for these Cub Scouts and their families, and we congratulate them.

Scandal and triumph, protest and passion, provocation and experiment – here they're all brought together. documenta is the world's most important series of contemporary art exhibitions, a mirror of society and a showcase for the global art world. It happens every five years and always lasts 100 days.
It seems only yesterday that the New National Gallery in Berlin opened, so timeless, transparent, light and elegant is the building, a masterpiece by the famous architect Mies van der Rohe. In fact this glass temple, which was hailed worldwide as an icon of modern architecture, opened in 1968 and even today it remains one of Germany's most eye-catching museum buildings.
The Pinakothek der Moderne not only brings together four museums under one roof – Sammlung Moderne Kunst, Staatliche Graphische Sammlung München, Technische Universität Architecture Museum and Neue Sammlung – it's also part of an even larger group of museums: the Munich Art Quarter, which in addition to the Pinakothek der Moderne includes the Alte Pinakothek, Neue Pinakothek, Museum Brandhorst, Antikensammlungen, Glyptothek and Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus.
Karl Ernst Osthaus believed that people should have access to art and he founded the Folkwang Museum in 1902 – initially not in Essen , but in Hagen. It was only in 1921 that the collection was transferred to the industrial city in North Rhine-Westphalia , where it quickly developed into a world-class museum.
There is probably no other building that better reflects how Germany perceives itself than the Federal Art Gallery in Bonn – known in German as the Bundeskunsthalle. A gallery devoted to art that is cosmopolitan, transparent, multifaceted and historically aware but that also has an eye to the future.
There is no doubt that the three buildings belonging to the Hamburg Kunsthalle house one of the most important public art collections in Germany: perhaps the best place to discover connections, developments and trends in seven centuries of art history. The permanent exhibition of more than 700 works and alternating displays from the museum's holdings offer a unique insight into art from the Middle Ages to the present day.
Even the young Johann Wolfgang Goethe was enraptured after a visit to the Dresden Art Gallery: "My amazement goes beyond words!" he is said to have exclaimed. Today's visitors will be equally impressed, whether they look round the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in the Semper wing of Zwinger Palace or the separate Galerie Neue Meister at the Albertinum on Brühl Terrace, a gallery that was established in 1965.

Kenny or Hannah? This Boy, 9, Picks Werth
Hannah Werth (44) plays for the little girl who fell in love with the game.
Journal-Star on Werth's Unparalleled Athleticism
By Randy York
This is a story about a 9-year-old boy and his mother who took him to the Nebraska-Iowa volleyball match in the Huskers' last week in its historic Coliseum. It's about Karla Wingard and Colin Wingard, her 9-year-old son whose sister got to see Nebraska upset UCLA and Penn State, two No. 1-ranked teams in season No. 36 – the final one at the Coliseum.
The experience was so awesome that Karla thought Colin deserved the chance to see Nebraska volleyball with its ultra-talented players and an atmosphere that was bound to intrigue even a star-struck little boy.
And it did … immediately.
"When we walked into the Coliseum, he saw Kenny Bell," said Karla, a Human Resources manager for a Lincoln banking business.
Karla shook her head and couldn't help thinking to herself: When isn't that dude (Bell) at a home volleyball match.
'I See Him … I Gotta Get His Autograph!'
Still, as things got quiet during the National Anthem, Karla Wingard was somewhat embarrassed when Colin spotted Nebraska's sophomore wide receiver again. "I see him … I see him!" Colin yelled enthusiastically. "Mom, I gotta get his autograph!"
Wingard, who commutes to her Lincoln job from Rising City, Neb., told Nebraska assistant coach Dani Busboom that she was "pretty sure that everyone in our section" heard her son blurt out his intentions.
But a funny thing happened for a 9-year-old boy hooked on football. The minute he sat down to watch set one of a Big Ten Conference match, his enthusiasm switched from his favorite sport to something entirely new that appeared to his wandering eyes.
"He was amazed that a girl could do what was being done on the floor," Karla said, quoting things he kept asking: "Mom, did you see Gina (Mancuso) hit that ball? Mom, did you see Morgan (Broekhuis) hit that?" Then, during the second set, Nebraska played right in front of a first-time grade-school fan.
Son 'Crazy' after Werth's Somersault Play
When Hannah Werth made a defensive play that forced her to sprint to a ball and somehow manage to set it up so the Huskers could score, "My son went crazy!" Wingard said. "He was like: 'Mom, did you see that? Hannah ran after that ball and then flipped after she hit it! That was awesome!'"
Awesome indeed … so awesome, in fact, that from that point on, "It was Hannah this and Hannah that!" Wingard said. "In my son's eyes, she couldn't do anything wrong."
This is fact, not fiction. In that transformational time of meaningful maturity, an impressionable 9-year-old no longer was talking about getting Kenny Bell's signature. He was talking about getting Hannah Werth's autograph!
Yes, Werth's scribbled name was the new holy grail that Colin Wingard wanted to chase, and a proud mother couldn't resist writing a thank-you to Busboom, who shared it with Nebraska head coach John Cook, who, in turn, shared the amazing little story with his team. Actually, this modest narrative is so potent and so powerful that it should be shared with all Nebraskans, as they prepare to watch the Huskers take on Washington. If they win Friday night, the Huskers will advance to the regional finals against either Oregon or BYU for the right to proceed to the NCAA National Semifinals in Louisville.
Volleyball: Fast, Fun, Fashionable in Nebraska
I don't want to over-hype here. But the most wonderful time of year really is high drama, high stakes, high octane and high interest for a state which has incredibly faithful football fans that are almost uniformly devoted to volleyball, especially when everything's on the line and everyone seems to be planning watch parties, just like Husker football loyalists.
In terms of dedication, these two superlative sports are not mutually exclusive. Over decades, I've learned that even though volleyball can never match the numbers or Nebraska football fans' unparalleled level of interest, even the staunchest gridiron fans make sure they track the volleyball results. even when a football-crazy state is preparing for a New Year's Day bowl game.
First and foremost, Karla Wingard wanted the Huskers to know how much luck she wished upon them in a rugged regional at Omaha's Century Link Center.
"Thank you Hannah (and the rest of the Huskers) for opening my son's eyes to what girls can do," Wingard said. "Hannah will definitely have a 9-year-old boy rooting for her this weekend. I hope they play their best and leave it all on the floor for a win not only Friday night but Saturday."
Then Wingard said what all good Huskers add to the conversation: "Go Big Red!"
Is Werth Nebraska's Version of Mia Hamm?
Hannah Werth is your classic premier athlete who grew up in a family that has five World Series rings among them, not to mention a mother and a sister who were both national-caliber athletes.
In my opinion, Werth is Nebraska's version of Mia Hamm, the Olympic soccer star who transcended her own remarkable talents. Hamm once said that "Somewhere behind the athlete you've become and the hours of practices and the coaches (and in Werth's case, parents, siblings, grandparents and uncles) who have pushed you … is a little girl who fell in love with the game and never looked back … play for her!"
And that's what Hannah does. She plays for the little girl she was and, at the same time, the young woman she's become. She's competitive, emotional, inspirational, fearless and motivating – for 9-year-old boys and senior citizen bloggers who can't wait to watch Hannah and her teammates compete this weekend on a regional stage for the right to contend nationally a week later.
Here's hoping fans from across the state open their wallets and get ready to close the year watching a group of young women that will give their level best to carve out a place in Nebraska and NCAA history.
Kenny Bell Hates to Miss Any Volleyball Match
May the force be with Hannah and all of her "sisters" and all of her "supporters" and that includes Kenny Bell, who loves watching Husker volleyball every bit as much as a 9-year-old boy examining the sport for the first time.
I can't help but wonder how many more Colin Wingards are out there in Lincoln and across the state. In my mind, when Nebraska moves to an expanded Devaney Center next fall, the Huskers should sell out before the season even starts.
Husker volleyball is that good, that exciting, that exhilarating. It's worth every penny, even when Werth does what all Husker legends do … exits stage left, waiting for the next batch of superior athletes to leave their mark on a program that almost always manages to meet pressure with … what else?
… Performance.
