text: Greetings to the list! For anyone who would like to travel to the Carrollton Texas area... I wanted to invite everyone to our annual Halloween Party. Those of you who have made it in the past or to the Easter Party, know that this is my twice annual chance to make a big deal over my favorite childhood traditions! Traditionally this party is a pot luck, we start at sun down by taking the kids trick or treating until they surrender, then we have food, bad scary movies, a costume contest or two, and the upstairs bar is open to the adults. Somewhere in here we have a pinata! The teenagers this year have asked that we make a place for them to dance, so the back patio is where we will be sending them to dance and hang out with the stereo. Everyone is welcome, children are highly encouraged, however, if you don't have any of your own, certainly one or two at the party will find you entertaining! What to bring. Yourself, in costume, preferably non SCA. A pillow case or some kind of candy receptacle for Trick or Treating (if you or your child plan on doing this part) Chairs if you have traveling ones. Food to share, contact me the week before for ideas/suggestions. We have a very friendly and safe neighborhood, and is very kid friendly. I hope to see many of you Halloween night. When: Why, Halloween of course! Where: Duncan & Larissa's email for directions ladyoftherose at hotmail.com Will Duncan be BBQing, do you really need to ask *L* Hugs! Larissa _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

The Miami Marlins have not had the home-stand that they envisioned when they returned home for nine games against the Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays, and Boston Red Sox. The team fell to 0-6 on the home-stand, after being swept by the Rays in a 4-2 loss. The Marlins starting pitching, the bullpen, and the lineup as a whole have struggled these past six games.
The Marlins are now 7-30 over the past 37 June games in the past two seasons. While the Marlins have struggled, the team still is positioned five games behind the division leading Washington Nationals. Now is not the time to panic if you are a Miami Marlins fans.
The first game of the Marlins-Red Sox series will be broadcasted on ESPN on Monday night. Yes, it seemed like a mistake to me as well and I still believe it might be one, but just do not say anything and we may actually get away with it!
As usual, to preview the series, I had a quick chat with a Fansided writer of the opposing teams site. Over the past few days, I had an opportunitiy to chat it up with Derek Stykalo, the editor of BoSox Injection. Derek and his staff do an excellent job on their site, if you ever get a chance, please do check them out.
Here is a look at our chat:
Ehsan Kassim : I have to ask this question, what happened to the Red Sox last September? Has the team fully recovered from their issues at the end of last season?
Derek Stykalo: Last season was a case of the patients running the asylum that had been in the works for quite some time and unfortunately it hit it's breaking point last August when the team started to skid. September was the cap to the collapse and unfortunately Terry Francona took the fall because of his "players coach" approach to the club. The owners wanted blood and they got it with a public hanging of Tito. The players, some not at all, quit playing and a good man lost his job over it. It's still a bitter memory and while I think the team has recovered from the issues, there are still some egos that linger on this club that need to be addressed before the team is completely out from under that ugly cloud.
EK: It has been over seven years since the huge blockbuster trade between the Marlins and Red Sox, which involved Josh Beckett and Hanley Ramirez. How does Red Sox nation feel about the trade right now?
DS: As of right now I'd say that Red Sox Nation would want the Ramirez back. Obviously Beckett came to Boston and did some terrific things in a few seasons but he's also been inconsistent over the past few years and injuries has played a part in that. He was pegged as the ring leader in the black September we referred to above and then the whole golf gate issue earlier this year was the icing on the cake for many fans. His attitude rubs a lot of people the wrong way and throw that in with all that he's done off the field, many Red Sox fans want him gone; not today, not tomorrow but yesterday. I personally think this club needs Beckett and he's been the true 'ace' of the staff lately, returning to his dominating ways on the mound that everyone expects from him. He's 2-2 in his last five starts with a 2.23 ERA with 25 K's and 5 BB in 36.2 innings and has allowed the Red Sox a chance to win the three games he didn't win.
EK: How do you think the Red Sox did in the 2012 First Year Players Draft last week?
DS: It was a different draft strategy for the Red Sox this year because of the new limit on what can be offered to the draftees in terms of contracts. Rather than throw a boatload of money at the top tier talent the Red Sox drafted more on who was still the best player available but also addressed some of their long-term needs ie: pitching. Their first overall pick, Deven Marrero is drawing rave reviews from what I've read and the word is he may be ready sooner than later leading some to believe there is a big of a logjam being created at shortstop in the Red Sox system. With Xander Bogaerts developing at a rapid pace at high A ball and Mike Aviles turning out to be a late bloomer for Boston, some are discussing whether Jose Iglesias is suddenly expendable via the trade market.
EK: Cody Ross was a fan favorite in Miami and was on his way to becoming one in Boston as well, can you tell us about the impact of his injury on the team? When is Ross expected to return to the team?
DS: Cody Ross was pimping at the plate before he went down and I recall the game in early May in Minnesota where he single handedly won the Red Sox the game with two long balls. In my opinion he was an absolute steal at $3 million for one year and his character is said to go a long way in the clubhouse, something this team desperately needed. His injury further depleted the Sox outfield and took a consistent bat out of the lineup. Deals were then forced to be made to acquire Marlon Byrd and Scott Podsednik when the injury bug continued to devour the outfield making it a very crowded position when the regulars return. There's been some small chatter about potentially trading Ross if he returns to form when he's activated, but I think it would be a huge mistake. It's a different lineup when Cody is hitting well and with Carl Crawford being so uncertain, Ross's value is needed.
While there isn't a firm timeline on Ross, the last I heard he hadn't begun any running programs, thinking that his return will likely be mid-July. Scary to say but his injury is the same one Dustin Pedroia suffered in 2010 that required surgery and eventually the rest of the season.
EK: What is the state of the Red Sox rotation currently? How long is Daniel Bard going to be in the minors?
DS: The Red Sox rotation is still a mess despite Beckett showing promise and the amazing upstart in Felix Doubront. Aside from those two, Jon Lester looks lost on the mound, Clay Buchholz was a disaster before his last three starts meaning the verdict is still out on him and Daniel Bard flat out sucked and failed to transition to a starter. Dice-K returned this weekend but while he struck out 8 over 5.0 innings, it's still too early given how inconsistently bad he can be. The Red Sox need pitching depth and a guy like Gavin Floyd from the White Sox would give them that. Even Matt Garza would solidify things, but both players will warrant a huge prospect filled return and I don't think it's worth it.
As far as Bard goes, he took his control struggles to triple-A when he started for Pawtucket on Friday night. The very first batter he faced he hit and continued to hit one more and give up two hits while allowing three runs, lasting just the one scheduled inning. His issues are deeper than mechanics and it's scary to see how badly he's messed up both in his delivery and his head. He belongs in the bullpen and while I'm convinced he'll be back with the big club this season, if he can't sort through things soon we may not see him until September.
EK: Can you give us a quick scouting report of the starting pitchers that the Marlins will face this series? Which match-up are you looking most forward to seeing?
DS: Monday night has Beckett up against Josh Johnson and this is the one I am most forward to seeing. When both pitchers are on, as they have been lately, this should be a low scoring game making the opportunity to cash in runners in scoring position a must. Beckett has been better lately as I eluded to up top and he's been stingy on the mound, not allowing many runs in four of his last five starts. He changes up his pitches well and induces a lot of ground balls.
Tuesday could be another beauty the way Buchholz has been throwing lately allowing two earned runs or less in each start which included a complete game shutout in his last outing. He appears to have righted the ship on his early season struggles and has turned to the strikeout to bail him out of some jams. His fastball has been down and away which it was not doing when he was serving up batting practice for almost two months worth of starting and he needs that pitch in order to be effective.
The finale will see Felix Doubront take the mound for the Red Sox and aside from his last start where he got rocked, this kid has been unbelievable. He dropped over 20 pounds during the offseason and came to camp on a mission to make the rotation and he did just that. He strikes out a lot of batters but as a result builds up his pitch count and has trouble getting past the sixth inning. He has also been prone to struggle in the third inning, costing him pitches and putting stress on the offense to bail him out.
EK: What are your predictions for this series? Who will step up and have a big series for the Red Sox?
DS: I think the Red Sox take two of three (bias a little). Beckett and Doubront get the wins and look for Adrian Gonzalez to have a big series. He's been hitting the ball hard lately which is a positive given his lack of power this season that has the media all over him.
EK (Bonus): How many home runs will Giancarlo Stanton hit this series?
DS: I'll say two, one off Buchholz and one off Doubront.
A big thank you to Derek for taking his time out to chat it up here on Marlin Maniac. We both hope to do the same for you guys for when the Marlins and Red Sox square off next week.
There will not likely be a game preview up for tonight's game, as I am running low on sleep and have to go to work early tomorrow and I am unsure of what time I will get home. My hope is to get home shortly before the game and get one up, if not, expect one for both Tuesday and Wednesday's games.

Bad drivers are increasingly likely to have their antics caught on camera and posted online as more and more motorcyclists routinely use helmets cameras.
Sales of the devices have doubled in two years and risen 40% in the last 12months according to retailers.
The small cameras can be stuck to side of helmets with suction cups and record up to two...

Helmet cam, and two bike mounted cam's, a third rear facing to come... Insurance companies like the evidence, the Police however only seem to if they can use it against you, and they will, even if the speedo's not in shot they have reverse engineered footage by frame rate and proven excess speed.
In the last week I've had phone 'cage aimers', an e-mailing blackberry 'cage aimer' and numpty pi$$ed pedestrians, oh and me dealing with a hit and run where the biker got hit and the cager ran, fast, but other car drivers got the number...

As a London commuter the pedestrian cutting through stationary traffic looking only one way is all too real, you do get used to it with every other week you have a near miss as although you do look for them there is always the ones that appear when filtering like the girl from in front of a large van/bus/lorry and other than spending on lots of railings at the sides of junctions this is always going to be a problem with many more accidents to unfortunately come.

The CPS (Crown prosecution service) will not prosecute on this evidence, and also, most CCTV cannot be used as evidence either. Why? I have no idea Such is the crazy country we live in. Stupid really as here in Lincoln the council have bikes fitted with video recording facilities.
Unfortunately, driving like this will only get worse, as long as you don't speed, you can get away with anything because the chances of being seen by a traffic cop are remote to say the least.
And people wonder why there is so much road rage. They nearly kill you and all you are expected to do is smile politely and carry on. Prosecute on evidence from these cameras and the driving standard may well improve, although it's doubtful as most drivers have no idea what they're doing wrong in the first place.

had a few close ones myself today. who the hell are these people on their phones talking too anyway? how did they get on before cellphones? even when i am in my car i never answer (tried it a few times and it is scary how much attention it takes off your driving), just let it ring or pull over! And when the hell did using turn signals become so hard, or merging for that matter!? last month I got a little revenge; stopped in traffic waiting to turn and woman pulled up in lane next me and tried to force herself in and it was either move into oncoming traffic or have her hit me. I chose option C, put an impression of my fist in her quarter panel! Funny how that worked and the horn didn't. And yes, she was on the phone. rant done...feel a little better.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, who announced at the end of last month that they are expecting their first child together in June, were spotted taking in a number of world famous landmarks on Tuesday and shopping together while on vacation in Paris.
A source told USMagazine.com that the 32-year-old reality TV star and her 35-year-old rapper boyfriend are hoping to chill out after announcing her pregnancy and are planning to stay in Paris "for a week just to chill. It's a little babymoon." The couple browsed the latest collections in designer stores Lanvin and Celine before enjoying a low-key dinner at L'Avenue restaurant.
Their holiday follows reports that the couple recently bought an $11 million mansion in Bel Air together, which they are said to have already started developing to fit their needs and are planning to install a gym, movie theatre, bowling alley, hair and make-up salon, indoor and outdoor pool and their own basketball court. The luxury neighbourhood is already home to stars, such as actress Jennifer Aniston and founder of the Girls Gone Wild entertainment franchise, Joe Francis.

40th Anniversary Editions: Then (Pontiac GP) and Now (Nissan 370Z)
Today Nissan announced the arrival of its 40th anniversary edition of the 370Z. Can you believe it's been 40 years since the 240Z shouldered its way into the North American market with such novelties as reliability? Time flies, I know.
While the 370Z is stock form is a decent piece of hardware, the NISMO model is where Nissan really shows engineering prowess. So with both of those models already in showrooms, how will Nissan differentiate the anniversary edition and commemorate its heroic forefather?
And of equal importance, how will this 40th anniversary edition compare to other 40th anniversary editions?+Continue Reading

Famously shot for 45 quid on a camcorder with a bunch of mates, Brit-director Marc Price's debut eschews the tongue-in-cheek, cheesy larks of much no-budget horror.
Instead, this near-dialogue-free flick reaches for a more melancholy, poetic feel, following newly bitten zombie Colin (Alastair Kirton) as he wanders through epidemic-hit London against a backdrop of smoky skies and distant gunfire.
The little we learn about Colin comes only later, in flashbacks; as earnestly as Kirton lurches and moans through the mayhem, scant characterisation makes it hard to feel for his dehumanised predicament. And while there's gore aplenty – including an all-out zombies versus humans street battle – the pace often meanders.
All the same, the effects are inventive on such a tight purse, with the opening scene – a cramped kitchen assault – offering proof of Price's resourcefulness.
If a Credit Crunch Oscar existed, his DIY chutzpah would take the gong.

Dayton, Ohio: Free City-Wide WiFi
timothy posted more than 9 years ago | from the approaching-normalcy dept.350
_Bunny writes "The City of Dayton, Ohio announced a plan to make all of downtown a WiFi hotspot - and as of last week, the network is live. This makes Dayton the first Ohio city to offer free WiFi access. Approximately one square mile of downtown is now live, including Fifth Third Field, the Oregon District, Webster Station and RiverScape. The WiFi project is a public/private partnership not funded by taxpayers, and comes at no charge to the end user." (According to the linked story at WHIO-TV, the city is actually paying about $5,000 per year, with advertisers picking up the rest of the tab.)

I've never purchased anything from Lush before this product. I like this shower gel/exfoliator the first time I used it. However, the packaging is awful. I couldn't open this when I was in the shower this morning because there was product around the sides of the Lush bowl which made opening the product impossible. I'm going to transfer some of the product into a squeezable bottle to fix this.
But the product itself smells really nice and my skin does feel good after using it.
I fell for this purely based on the scent - it smells exactly like the Sakura bath bomb which in turn smells like the (now sadly discontinued) 17 Cherry Tree Lane soap which was my all time favourite LUSH product ever.
In terms of what this is like to use, as another reviewer has already mentioned here it's very gloopy. Which sadly means it's not the easiest to use and has a tendency to slip through the fingers and straight down the plughole. And that's not what you want from an exfoliator, especially when you're paying 8.50GBP for 250ml. When you do finally manage to grab enough to exfoliate with it's pretty good stuff, although I found the trick was not too rub too hard as the large chunks of salt in this can be quite harsh on the skin. Once you've exfoliated enough and washed this off though, it does leave your skin feeling really soft and smelling gorgeous so it nearly makes up for the whole gloopiness.
I say 'nearly makes up for...' as even though I did like this I wouldn't be tempted to buy another one of these in a hurry. There's loads more exfoliators on the market that I want to try and for the price I don't think it's worth the pain of watching most of it disappearing down the plughole!
Love the smell! Great salty/scrub exfoliater for the skin. FYI, it's recommended not to use this with Ro's Body Argan conditioner, use one or the other.
Pros: Gentle enough to help tame the sensitive, ashy skin on my legs/arms/elbows. Does a decent job of exfoliating and moisturizing, and the scent is lovely and fresh. Great to use before shaving (but make sure to rinse off first, or all that salt is going to hurt your shins!)
Cons: Gloopy. SO GLOOPY. So much is wasted by slipping through my fingers in the shower, and I wish would thicken up the product itself so it would go further. It's also pretty pricey, and I find it too expensive purely for the reason that so much goes to waste.
This is a nice scrub, but overall, I won't be repurchasing it. While I enjoyed using it, I don't think Rub Rub Rub is any better than other scrubs on the market that also cost significantly less.
Pros: the smell as always with lush is gorgeous! Very refreshing. It's a fantastic exfoliator. The scrub really works to remove dead skin. It could be a little too harsh to use on your face if you have sensitive skin, however if you use the whiter part of the product it's fine. The cons: yes it is a little bit expensive, however must we remember that LUSH are an organic company. They reuse their packaging, recycle and don't test on animals or humans. To conclude: I would much rather spend that extra bit of money for that reason alone as I am very big on banning animal testing for cosmetic reasons.
The smell and colour of this is beautiful, it smells like a laundry shop. It actually scrubs and lathers really well so it is a great shampoo. Try this now, you won't regret it!
I like the smell
no better, IMO, than a cheap scrub.
Need to use a lot for an all body exfoliator.
I wouldn't repurchase this again, as I was disappointed with this product.
It was no better than a cheap 'pot' of one you could find at kmart. I felt that I had to use a lot of this for an all over body exfoliation, resulting in wastage and using it up quickly.
Would not repurchase
Okay first of all I was just going to lush to buy things and I wanted oceans salt but I forgot what it was called and I asked for a body scrub n the guy showed me this.. It's an excellent scrub I really really love it and I realized that I can use it for my hair to add volume it said this on the jar. It leaves skin soooooo smooth and it's just great. The only thing I didn't like is the smell it didn't smell allot but who cares im gonna wash it off anyways haha.
Smells like carwash soap, yuck. Not a very strong scrub either...
It hydrates my skin. The smell is like blossom-ish and has a hint of jasmine. NEVER USE THIS ON YOUR HAIR! Although people say it gives volume, it dries your hair out so bad. I use to have super soft hair but until the day I tried using this into my hair, I now have squeaky voices everytime I comb my hair through my fingers. NEVER EVER! But I don't know which is better this or Soap and Glory's flake away scrub.

With it being NHL Trade Deadline day, fantasy hockey teams can be affected in a major way by 3:00 p.m. EST.
It's been a quiet deadline so far, but one major move has gone down with the Tampa Bay Lightning shipping Martin St. Louis to the New York Rangers in exchange for Ryan Callahan and a pair of draft picks, a source confirmed to ESPN.
St. Louis has a five-game point streak dating back to Feb. 4 which includes four goals and seven points. He has over 60 in 60 games and most of that is without stud line mate Steven Stamkos. He really should get some consideration for the Hart trophy, but won't.
In addition to being eighth in the NHL in scoring and fifth in the league in goals scored, St. Louis led the NHL in scoring last season.
In terms of his fantasy value, I expect St. Louis' value to remain the same in New York as he should continue to stockpile fantasy points.
The one who could be effective the most is Stamkos, who will make his return to the lineup Thursday against the Buffalo Sabres.
While Stamkos is a natural goal scorer, he could find it more difficult with Callahan on his side opposed to St. Louis as St. Louis is more of a natural playmaker.
I also don't like the deal to Tampa in terms of Callahan's fantasy value.
Callahan is only a 25 point guy on the season and is a guy who could potentially score 20-plus goals on the season, but he is going to have more expectations placed on him in Tampa, if he isn't flipped before 3 pm. and I don't see Callahan living up to those.
For what it is worth, St. Louis is expected to be in the lineup tonight for the Rangers, playing next to Brad Richards.

Today on New.Music.Live we started the show off with a tribute to legendary rapper Adam "MCA" Yauch of the Beastie Boys who sadly passed away this morning at the age of 47.
Even though it was a sad day in music, we had to bring the energy back up with today's dance battle between ProLiFIC and GGSquad. ProLiFIC, dressed in black and white, brought their smooth moves to the dance floor and GGSquad, dressed in bright red and blue, were the perfect competition with their hard and edgy choreography. Our amazing judges Janet L. Castillo, Lenny Len, Hollywood Jade, and JRDN all had hot and cold feedback for both dance crews but it was GGSquad who won over the judges in the end. A big shout out to GGSquad, congrats!
Enjoy your weekend and tune in to NML on Monday at 6PM ET because British singing sensation Conor Maynard will be here!

Archive for the 'Open Records' Category
A Smoking GunMonday, August 4th, 2014
August 4, 2014
A Smoking Gun
I have a reluctance to throw out old files that I have from 2001. So I decided to start cleaning out and throwing away old files. The first one I came across was an open records reply from 2007. It was a Mercer Health and Benefits report dated July 24, 2006. The title was "City of Memphis Retiree Medical Landscape 2006 and Beyond".
Take a look at this report. It was a warning of what was coming from GASB (Government Accounting Standards Board 43 and 45) concerning OPEB reporting, Medicare Coordination, Service Based Contributions and Future Hires.
Why was this report Important?
- It will be a required part of the annual audit statement
- This will impact bond rating
- Unfunded liability is potentially 50 times current retiree health-claim cash flow
The report recommended plan changes such as
- Coordination of benefits on medical and surgical coverage with Medicare (Parts A & B) for all post 65 retirees.
- Adopting an age and service based contribution rate structure.
- Plan design changes to the retiree medical plan that will reduce costs to some reasonable level and help manage the liability.
- Medicare coordination will mean the City of Memphis will provide coverage for post-65 retirees only on a secondary basis and all post 65 retirees will be required to buy Medicare coverage.
- The City of Memphis will adopt separate rates for pre-65 and post-65 retirees.
- Retirees will contribute different amounts depending upon their length of service in active employment.
Is it any surprise that the City of Memphis ignored these recommendations and the County took the warnings to heart and adopted a similar recommended plan? This lack of action by the City in 2006 explains the current crisis we have at the City of Memphis.
An Important ElectionThursday, July 24th, 2014
July 18, 2014
There is a very important election coming up. Early voting starts today (only
downtown at the election commission). General early voting starts Monday July
21st and early voting ends Saturday August 2nd. The last voting day is Thursday
August 7th but only at your normal local voting site.
The ballot is huge. I have attached the ballot with my selections. I want you to
make your own choices but I want you to get out and vote.
I have been working with Eve and Eddie Settles and they have done a wonderful
job in researching the candidates. Be sure to go to www.backinrivercity.com and
read about the research they have done.
You will have to declare that you want to vote in the democrat or republican
primary. This is for the Governor, United States Senate, United States House of
Representatives, the Tennessee Senate, the Tennessee House of Representatives,
and the State Democrat or Republican executive committee people. This party
declaration will not prevent you from voting on the rest of the ballot which is
The final page of the ballot is interesting. It is to vote to Retain or Replace the
Tennessee Supreme Court judges (3 ea.), Court of Appeals Judges (10 ea.) and
Court of Criminal Appeals judges (10 ea.).
The Tennessee legislature voted recently to let the Judicial Nominating
Commission to expire and in November 2014 we will vote whether to adopt a
constitutional amendment for Tennessee, a system like the one set forth in the US
Constitution. I believe that an 8 year term is sufficient and should be at the end of
a distinguished legal career or the justice should go back to his legal practice to
earn his living, not be a career justice. Therefore I support the REPLACE vote.
I will be glad to answer any questions. 7540699

An Open Records UpdateMonday, May 19th, 2014

An Open Records Update
During the last 10 years I have been an advocate of open records. I have had my ups and downs with the City of Memphis, Shelby County, the old Memphis School System, he MLGW and any number of other affiliated organizations. Here is my open record scorecard.
- Shelby County and MLGW A
- The Old Shelby County School System B+
- City of Memphis C
- Old Memphis School System and the new SC School System F
I have never had to file a lawsuit against Shelby County, the MLGW or the Old Shelby County School System. I have filed 5 lawsuits successfully against Memphis and the Old Memphis School System. The City of Memphis has become less responsive and difficult about providing access to information. The new Shelby County School System (SCS) seems to be little different from the old Memphis School System.
I am asking Memphis and SCS for information and will take whatever action is necessary to enforce my Tennessee citizens' legal rights and access to information.
Now I see the Common Core as the greatest threat to our freedoms and the future of our local education. I am asking the public to join with me in a debate on common core and how it is being implemented locally. I will publish a series of questions and provide answers to be debated and facts provided.
The basic purpose of common core is to impose thru a national program a uniform curriculum on K12 public schools. As a result of this uniform common core, they want to collect an immense amount of student data and use it to plan each student's future education (university, community college or trade school) and eventually their slot in society. This plan would disregard the parents' and the students' rights and desires. This amounts to Federal control of education, freedoms and parental rights.
I agree that public education needs upgrading as we have had over 60 years of failure of public education. I agree that there should be a rigorous broad based national testing standard to which students, schools and teachers should be measured. However I believe in competition. Each state and even each City and County should develop their own curriculum and teaching methods with the full involvement of parents and taxpayers. Those states and cities that measure up and surpass the national measure should share their programs with others that do not measure up. Let the best ideas and results win. More federal money and one size fits all is not the answer. Let there be no less than 50 state experimental education laboratories competing with each other for top student achievers. Let education flourish in public, private, home schools, church schools with parents making a choice financed by taxes and vouchers. Let the competition begin with parental choice of what is best for their children, not what is best for Bill Gates, Pearson Publishing or DC politicians.
In future posts I will point out hard facts about common core, who is financing it, and who benefits. I welcome your comments.
Does Your Child Belong To You Or To The Government?Tuesday, April 29th, 2014

Does Your Child Belong To You Or To The Government?
I and some of my friends have been asking questions about Common Core. I asked the Shelby County School System for the following information.
I would like to have access to and view all data requests regarding data that the school system is collecting on the students. I would like to know if this data is requested and collected from the students directly without parental involvement or if the parents are requested to furnish this information or data and if this information is voluntary or required of the students or parents.
There answer was the following. "Your request is not granted because it is not understood." Such arrogance.
I want to recommend that you go to www.mommabears.org and read through some of this information. This is a great organization and they are having an effect. I was immediately struck by this report. Click and read this report on what is in the library of a local school. http://www.mommabears.org/1/post/2014/03/alert-is-this-in-your-childs-library-at-school.html
I want to find out more about this from the school system but I cannot even get them to answer a request for an appointment. I will keep trying but I need feedback from readers who have children in public schools.
The federal government does not believe that your child's education should be the responsibility of the parents. They believe they are the professionals and they know better. We need to let them know that they work for us, not the other way around.
Common Core Educational Standards-Good Or Bad?Monday, March 10th, 2014
March 10, 2014
Common Core Educational Standards-Good Or Bad?
This is a subject that I consider more important than even pension reform. This will determine the educational level of our children and grandchildren and the future of our country both economically and from a freedom standpoint.
What Common Core purports to do is set a uniform school curriculum across the country leading to uniform testing and higher standards. What it is fact will do, if fully implemented, is take local control out of the hands of local school boards and particularly out of the hands of parents.
In my 10 years of "OPEN RECORDS ADVOCACY" I have come to the opinion that the most difficult people to get open records information from is local school bureaucrats, starting with the old Memphis School System and now the new Shelby County School bureaucracy which acts much like the old City of Memphis School bureaucracy.
This coming Friday evening Mrs. Karen Lamoreaux (Arkansas) will speak from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM at White Station Church of Christ, 2nd floor, 1106 Colonial Road. Listen to her in a short youtube video as she took apart the local school board.
Please try to be there and learn what she is doing in Arkansas and nationwide.
This is a person who knows what is going on and we need to listen to her and take local action on our own school board. I feel her frustration as it is very difficult to get through the bureaucracy and get results.
Within the last few months I asked the Shelby County School System for the following information.
"I would like to have access to and view all data requests regarding data that the school system is collecting on the students. I would like to know if this data is requested and collected from the students directly without parental involvement or if the parents are requested to furnish this information or data and if this information is voluntary or required of the students or parents.
Their answer was the following.
"Your request is not granted because it is not understood."
Paying With Tax Incremental FinancingMonday, January 6th, 2014
January 6, 2014
I spent the month of December trying to get answers to the following questions.
1) How many tourist development zones (TDZs) have been approved by the state of Tennessee, the date of approval and a map or designation of the zones?
2) For those zones that are approved, how much is the base sales and use tax amount from which the incremental amount of taxes will be distributed?
3) How much incremental taxes have been received each year since the inception of the TDZ zones?
4) On what have the incremental taxes been spent?
I asked these questions of the City of Memphis and have again and again been promised answers. I know that during the Christmas season it is hard to get action. I also asked the first three questions of the Tennessee Department of Revenue and did get some answers from them. I have attached a schedule of distributions to municipalities for qualified tourism development zones by fiscal years earned. Also I received a similar schedule for sales tax allocation for sports authorities such as the NBA facility in Memphis and the minor league baseball facility in Memphis. This is interesting information and you will see that Memphis received $13.2 million in FY 2011-12 for the only TDZ zones we currently have approved (downtown) and $1.9 million for the Arena and zero for the baseball facility in 2012.
I received further clarification from the state concerning the rules on TIF distribution as shown below.
Mr. Saino,
In an attempt to answer your question related to the 1.9 million. The 1.9 million dollars was paid to the city of Memphis / Shelby County as a separate payment each month as the sales tax dollars for the Grizzlies is collected. The information of zero that you have relative to the Redbirds is incorrect the amount paid to the Memphis Redbirds foundation was $586,282.41. These amounts are after we take the ½ percent for education off the top of the collections.
In calculating the TDZ we do back the amount of these sports authorities off of the collections for that year in determining the growth to apply.
So in the year we are looking at the overall collections for state sales tax was $ 750,776,304.38(this figure includes food) we reduce that amount by the amount of total state sales tax collections relative to the sports authority which was $2,722,845.30 (please remember the figures are different because this is before the ½ percent for education is calculated).
That net number $748,053,459.08 is compared to the same data as the previous year to determine the overall growth in the area.
This growth is then applied to the base to create the current base in the 2011-12 year the base was $34,215,152.17. The TCA reads the TDZ will benefit from the amount collected within the TDZ area that was above the base. The amount collected in the zone for state sales tax was 50,352,645.09 ( we adjust this number by the ½ percent for education) Giving a net collections of $46,156,608.12 then we add the food sales tax collections within the TDZ area which was $176,729.12. Those two figures combined total net state sales tax collections $ 46,333,337.24. This is the amount compared to the base and the TDZ receives the above and beyond in this case it was $12, 118,185.06. The local portion of the sales tax is calculated under the same basis.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
I still want to know how this money is applied to our debt which I expect the City of Memphis to answer.
Now it is my understanding that the City of Memphis is asking for a second TDZ zone for the Fairgrounds project. The question is this. IS THIS A SOUND WAY TO FINANCE BIG PROJECTS LIKE BASSPRO, FAIRGROUNDS, PINCH DISTRICT AND ON AN ON?
Look at some of the other cities like Chattanooga and Sevierville that went down this same path. In one report there was the following statement.
*Chattanooga received no state sales tax distribution in 2007 because taxable sales fell below their pre-TIF level. Several businesses left the designated area.
Also Sevierville has had problems with paying for their debt by this method. So the assertion that there is no risk for tax incremental financing is not true. At the very least the City of Memphis should provide a detailed analysis showing the expected amount of incremental sales tax expected from the TDZ needed to pay the debt and tell the public and the taxpayers the truth about their downside risk if the expected sales tax revenue does not materialize.
The Arrogance of the School SystemThursday, November 7th, 2013
November 7, 2013
I sent the attached open records request to the Shelby County Board of Education addressed to the records custodian. I got the answer shown in the attachment. Since then I have called twice and have gotten no return call. I then sent an email to Jennifer Collins and requested that she put the documents at the front desk a week ago Friday which I would pick up with a check. In the email I said if that was not possible to let me know. I arrived Friday morning and there were no documents and they could not get Ms. Collins on the phone. Also I was not allowed into the general counsel's office in contradiction to the Tennessee open records law. I snail mailed the check and I finally received some documents about the books by return snail mail rather than by electronic mail. This cost them $2.32 to mail them.
The arrogance of these people is amazing. They don't think they work for the taxpayers. They get this attitude by watching what goes on in Washington DC. Nothing really has changed since the consolidation. It seems to still be the Memphis School System. Obviously (more…)
What Is In The School Books?Thursday, October 17th, 2013
October 17, 2013
I have been in contact with a very active group of people in Nashville about common core, school books and material and data collecting. Following is part of a recent email from this Nashville group about a great success they had in reviewing school books and reporting on what is actually in these books. I have recently sent an open records request to the new Shelby County School System requesting access to books, book lists and data collection. I have not yet heard back from them on this request. I will keep you informed on this request. Eventually I will get access to these books, pamphlets, material and data collection. At that point I will need help to review and report as did the Nashville group. It is a big job but are the kids worth it? Please let me know if you are up for the work.
This report came from Dr. J Lee Douglas, Nashville.

Yeah - No kidding
Submitted by Michael Nystrom on Wed, 01/16/2013 - 16:33. Permalink
It'll happen.
Naomi Wolf laid it all out in The End of America. Here's how incrementalism works: Obama is already killing US citizens with drones - but they're brown citizens, so everyone kind of just ignores it. Sure that kid was a citizen, but he's brown, and he was over there.
But the precedent has been set. Citizens are killed by executive order. Through incrementalism, it isn't much of a stretch until they're killing "regular" ones, right here at home.
To be mean is never excusable, but there is some merit in knowing that one is; the most irreparable of vices is to do evil out of stupidity. - C.B.

Breaking News— Phil Ivey Not Playing in WSOP, Files Lawsuit Against TiltWare
|Phil Ivey Not Playing in WSOP, Files Lawsuit Against TiltWare Poker Pro Releases Statement on His Facebook Page
|by Brian Pempus | Published: May 31, 2011 | E-mail Author
Phil IveyPhil Ivey will not play in the 2011 World Series of Poker and has "electronically filed a lawsuit against Tiltware," according to a disjointed, six-part statement released Tuesday night on his official Facebook page. Shortly after the news broke, a cleaned-up official statement went up on Ivey's website. No confirmation from the eight-time bracelet winner has been achieved at this time. Multiple Full Tilt Pros in attendance on Day 1 of the $25,000 heads-up event, which Ivey was absent from, said they knew nothing about the Ivey announcement.
Below is the full statement:
For many years, I have been proud to call myself a poker player. This great sport has taken me to places I only imagined going and I have been blessed with much success. It is therefore with deep regret that I believe I am compelled to release the following statement.
I am deeply disappointed and embarrassed that Full Tilt players have not been paid money they are owed. I am equally embarrassed that as a result many players cannot compete in tournaments and have suffered economic harm. I am not playing in the World Series of Poker as I do not believe it is fair that I compete when others cannot. I am doing everything I can to seek a solution to the problem as quickly as possible.
My name and reputation have been dragged through the mud, through the inactivity and indecision of others and on behalf of all poker players I refuse to remain silent any longer. I have electronically filed a lawsuit against Tiltware related to the unsettled player accounts. As I am sure the public can imagine, this was not an easy decision for me.
I whole heartedly refuse to accept non-action as to repayment of players funds and I am angered that people who have supported me throughout my career have been treated so poorly.
_I sincerely hope this statement will ignite those capable of resolving the problems into immediate action and would like to clarify that until a solution is reached that cements the security of all players, both US and International, I will, as I have for the last six weeks, dedicate the entirety of my time and efforts to finding a solution for those who have been wronged by the painfully slow process of repayment. _

As a regional, the library also oversees eight other selective depositories in the state of Idaho.
The University of Idaho Library is the Regional Depository for U.S. Government Documents for the state of Idaho. The collection consists of more than 675,000 paper documents, 800,000 microforms, 200,000 maps, 7,500 CD-ROMs, and more than 25,000 online publications. This comprehensive and unique collection offers free access to more than 1.7 million items to all users.

By Leonid Bershidsky

To a Westerner, the imprisonment of three women from the feminist performance group Pussy Riot might seem a clear-cut case of inspired rebellion and mean-spirited repression. For Russians, it's not so simple.

In the days since a Moscow court handed down a two-year sentence for Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, Maria Alekhina and Yekaterina Samutsevich, everyone from celebrities to opposition leaders has struggled to make sense of the group's staggering success. Even those fervently opposed to President Vladimir Putin's authoritarian rule are in some cases finding it hard to align themselves with Pussy Riot -- either because they genuinely disagree with the group's approach, or because they realize it could harm their careers.

It's easy for Paul McCartney, Madonna and Bjork to back the three twenty-somethings, who staged an impromptu gig at Moscow's Christ the Savior Cathedral, performing a wild dance and screaming a song calling on the Virgin Mary to chase away Putin. The Western pop stars will, at best, play a show or two in Russia and move on. Russian musicians and TV personalities, by contrast, have withheld support for Pussy Riot. They depend heavily on income from performances at private and corporate parties, a source of cash that could easily dry up if they became too vocal against Putin.

"Our popular artists' humiliating, slavish dependence on the corrupt government and criminal business is common knowledge," music critic Artemy Troitsky wrote in a column on the website colta.ru.

The more far-sighted opposition leaders face a similar problem. They hope someday to win public office in a deeply conservative country. In a poll taken by the Levada Center, 44 percent of respondents said they thought the Pussy Riot trial was "fair and just" -- this despite the judge's unvarnished bias in favor of the prosecution. Some 52 percent of the population still supports Putin's policies, and it was Putin's electorate that demanded harsh punishment for Pussy Riot in the first place.

"Most people get their information from TV, so they either know nothing or buy the official version," said Levada Center director Lev Gudkov. "This is a very aggressive society that needs clear rules of behavior and dogmatic, authoritarian enforcement of these rules."

Opposition activist Vladimir Milov, writing on the website gazeta.ru, warned that the Pussy Riot trial could serve to deepen the chasm between the liberal opposition and the rest of Russian society. "It is practically impossible to explain the girls' action to the mass of Russian voters in a positive light," he wrote. "This is extremely beneficial for the authorities."

One could attribute Milov's irritation to jealousy -- after all, Paul McCartney might not know him from Putin. But anti-corruption blogger Alexei Navalny, Russia's most popular opposition leader, has expressed some of the same concerns. In an interview with the German magazine Der Spiegel, Navalny, an Orthodox Christian, said he found Pussy Riot's action "despicable" and would be outraged if his daughter did something similar. He explained that he supports Pussy Riot only because he believes they should not have been sent to prison for mere "stupidity."

For Navalny, the Pussy Riot case is an uncomfortable subject because, like Milov, he believes the Kremlin has used it to divert attention from the opposition's true cause -- to end what it sees as a corrupt and illegitimate regime. The Kremlin "succeeded in taking the conflict between the government and the opposition movement and obscuring it behind the confrontation between the Church and the opposition," he said.

Some conspiracy theorists have gone so far as to suggest that the Pussy Riot case could be a Kremlin plot meant to split the anti-Putin movement. Alexei Plutser-Sarno, a member of the St. Petersburg-based protest-art group Voina, wrote in his blog that Tolokonnikova left the group after her husband, Pyotr Verzilov, was ejected for acting as a police informant. "I suspect that if Paul McCartney, Madonna and Sting had received a little note describing these circumstances, it is possible that they would have wished to ask some questions of Nadya, Katya and Masha," wrote Milov in his article.

Even if the Kremlin was somehow behind Pussy Riot, the jury is still out on the most important point: Whether or not the provocation was successful. As journalist Oleg Kashin put it in a column for the website Slon.ru, if the authorities "cooked up and carried out a shrewd and insidious plot to solve their pre- and post-election problems but failed to predict a worldwide scandal with a colossal loss of face for Putin's Kremlin and God knows what else, they are not just idiots – they are dangerous idiots."

Idiots or not, Pussy Riot has put people like Milov and Navalny in a tough spot. They have to stand up for liberal values and against the new inquisition which has put Pussy Riot in jail, but they cannot be seen as enemies of the Orthodox faith and traditional values. Otherwise they have no hope of turning people who hold these values against Putin, and that is crucial if they are ever to win power.
