Pragmatism or protest in 15th?
Incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. John Shimkus faces only a Democratic protest candidate in Illinois' new 15th District.
Drawing a new congressional map to ensure that the maximum number of his fellow Democrats win required Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan to pack as many Republicans as possible in some districts.
One is the new 15th District, which runs from Collinsville, located near St. Louis, south to Metropolis and north beyond Champaign and Danville. It includes all or parts of 33 counties.
Incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. John Shimkus, who's from Collinsville, is opposed by Democrat Angela Michael. Shimkus will almost certainly win.
Michael, a retired nurse, is running to bring what she describes as the horror of abortion to public attention, and, in that sense, she is waging a perfectly legitimate campaign. Her moral outrage over the issue of abortion falls easily within this country's history of protest politics.
However respectable Michael's cause, it does not qualify her to serve in Congress. Indeed, that is not really her goal.
Since he's a guaranteed winner, it's fortunate that Shimkus has done a solid job of representing his constituents in the U.S. House, and The News-Gazette endorses him for re-election. A West Point graduate who holds a master's degree in business administration, Shimkus' conservative brand of politics may not be well suited to the liberal salons included in his massive district, but his views are well within the political mainstream. He will represent it well.
News-Gazette.com embraces discussion of both community and world issues. We welcome you to contribute your ideas, opinions and comments, but we ask that you avoid personal attacks, vulgarity and hate speech. We reserve the right to remove any comment at our discretion, and we will block repeat offenders' accounts. To post comments, you must first be a registered user, and your username will appear with any comment you post. Happy posting.
Do liberals only hang out in "salons?" Are you serious?
You'd think a man with that much education would posess at least an elementary understanding of science. Shimkus does not believe in climate change (which is his right) he also believes God will put everything right and therefore, we wouldn't have to worry about it in the first place (which is also his right). However, I don't believe his willful ignorance or wishful thinking serves his constituents at all.
As to his "opponent," Michael is no more a Democrat than I am a Martian. She is an anti-abortion extremist affiliated with Operation Rescue—a one-issue candidate. She simply ran unopposed as a Democrat in the primary. I doubt her views on abortion differ at all from her ...opponent.
With choices like Shimkus and Michael, I don't believe anyone will be serving the needs of the 15th District with any sense or "pragmatism."

Neot Kedumim, the Biblical Landscape Reserve in Israel, is located halfway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. This unique recreation of the physical setting of the Bible in all its depth and detail allows visitors to see life as it was lived by our ancestors 3,000 years ago. More than a "garden" showing various plants, Neot Kedumim embodies the panorama and power of the landscapes which shaped the values of the Bible and provided the rich vocabulary for expressing those values.
Olive, Oil and MenorahThe olive tree and its fruit play an important role in many metaphors and stories and figure prominently on the emblem of the state of Israel. During the tour we will operate an authentic ancient stone olive press ("beit bad") and learn about the ancient methods of producing olive oil.

Parents of ADHD Children
Literature for Parenting
Hi, I'm pretty new to this. My son was diagnosed with ADHD just a few months ago, and he is 4 1/2. I want to do everything in my power to help him succeed and cope with the frustrations I know he is having with ADHD, not to mention MY frustrations. I am looking for a book that I could help guide me toward this goal. Any good recommendations for ADHD parenting books out there?

|Copy/Pasting dates from HTML table to Calc formats wrong
|Thu, 26 Jul 2012 14:18:07 GMT
I am attempting to copy table data where 2 adjacent columns are dates. MM/DD in one, YYYY in the next. Obviously these are 2 separate fields. When pasting into OOo Calc 2.4.0, it formats the date in the first date column by assuming the year is 2012. Some of those date fields indicate a date range such as 03/17-18 (March 17 through 18). These get interpreted as 03/17/2018 by OOo. I've tried pasting unformatted, but almost all browsers seem to add in random CRLF in fields so when they get pasted, the row/column format is lost. I've tried setting all fields to be Text, but when I paste the data, it's either ignored or overwritten. There appears to be no way to paste HTML data from a table into OOo Calc as pure text so there are no auto formatting attempts made. If this is the case, I would like to know how to submit a change/addition request. If I'm just missing how to do it, I'll gladly thank whoever knows what I'm doing wrong. I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place to ask a question like this, but I did not see it being against any of the list rules.

Located in Glenwood Canyon.
This was one of the most beautiful hikes I've ever had. Once you get to the top and see the beautiful lake and waterfall, you will wonder what took you so long to do this!!
It's a bit of a hike for people that aren't healthy or small children but it's worth the long hike. You will need to bring water for the hike. It's absolutely beautiful at the top! We've visited the area and visited both times. If we ever go back it will be on the to do list for sure!
We went on this hike with 2 grandmothers and 10 year old boy. It is a fun hike and the view of the Lake is breathtaking. Definitely recommend this hike!
Great hike with lots of beautiful scenery. Make sure to go up past the lake it's not much farther but a pretty great sight as well.
The lake itself is very crowded and full of people. But you just have to ignore them and try to get lost in the moment of this beautiful place you are seeing. Don't forget to take the extra little hike to Spouting Rock while you're up there,
As a native of Colorado, i have been on the hike to Hanging Lake several times over the years and am sad to say it is run down! People making their own shortcuts, trash laying around, people carving their names in trees (A tree gets its nutrients from their roots to the top in a layer of cells just under...
It's a very steep climb 3 - 4 hrs but you go at your own pace. I barely made it but there were children and pregnant people climbing. There are a lot of big rocks to climb over but you can rest as much as you want. It was worth it. Wear good shoes my hiking boots gave me bad...
Get to this trail head early or you make not be able to park and hike. It is a gorgeous little hike most folks can manage. Enjoy a nice picnic when you get back. Many tables along the Colorado to enjoy. This is a great hike in summer of winter.
Being a Native of Colorado this is an annual family hike for us! The trail has taken a beating but the tremendous Park Rangers do a remarkable job with renovations and trail upkeep! Colorado's Highlight of Pristine Nature and Beauty!🌲
This hike had its steep moments but it is easy and safe. We just packed a couple bottles of water. Great spot for pic. Up and back with some minimal resting at the top took about 1.5 hours. Do yourself a favor and only arrive here via bike shuttle.
Hello! Does anybody know when the leaves begin to turn on the Aspens in this area? I realize it varies year by year but is it typically mid September or later September-early October? Thanks!

The Iron King (Harlequin Teen) (edition 2010)
by Julie Kagawa
Work details
The Iron King by Julie Kagawa
Books Read in 2013 (1,097)
Faerie Mythology (62)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
The one thing I appreciated about this book was that it did not take very long for Meghan to figure out she was half fey. Afterwards, the story continues in a fast pace as Meghan tries to figure out how to get her brother, Ethan, back to the human world - while picking up a few unlikely friends along the way.
I enjoyed reading in Meghan's voice, she was a tough female lead who was dedicated to finding and returning her brother to the human world. She gave vivid descriptions of the fey world and its creatures, which is necessary for the world building.
The story moves along quickly, but not so quickly that you can't take a breath. The characters take on a life of their own and the ending is strong. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of books in this series.
I've always wanted to read this series, so I finally borrowed a copy to read on my nook. With reviews like "brilliant and masterful" how could you not be dying to read it?
I was hooked on the very first page, greatly enjoyed the first few chapters, and then... I honestly just got bored. I liked the story line enough to keep reading it, but the pace was just so slow for me, and I was just expecting MORE. I just did not like Meghan Chase and I definitely didn't like Puck & didn't find him funny. Ash was shallow, selfish, and immature.
I don't find the storyline terribly original, the storyline isn't compelling, and added to the fact that I just didn't like the characters, I have to say I won't bother reading any more. The only reason why this one is rated 3 stars is because I did like it enough to finish it.
Posted on my blog Ruby's Books
Rating: 3.5 stars
This is one of those slightly painful to write reviews. Ever since I read The Immortal Rules I've been dying to read this series. I loved Kagawa's writing style and, since I've heard so much about The Iron Fey series, I thought I'd give it a try.
I loved the world in this series, the mythology and the whole "believe and it will exist" theme of the series. It was also interesting to see so may new creatures and the different interactions between them and the different rules and customs of the two courts.
The characters where great too. I especially liked Robbie. I wouldn't say I'm on his team, but I really enjoyed reading about him. He's very funny, charming and very, very mischievous. I was surprised to learn his real name and who he really is. I had a very different idea.
Then there's Ash. I did like his character, though at times he seemed a little too serious. But I liked that in the end he helps Meghan on her quest and that he tries to get along with Robbie.
Here comes the hard part of my review. While I liked Meghan a lot, I didn't understand her at all. I couldn't exactly figure out if she really loved Ash. I didn't feel that emotion for some reason. Yes, she was attracted to him (who wouldn't be?) but I didn't feel the love that much.
Then there's the ending. I would've wanted a little more drama, like we get in The Immortal Rules. Something big, something that leaves me staring at the computer and go "WTF? What just happened?". I don't know, something. Instead, I felt the book ended too easy, given what Meghan and Ash and Robbie had to go through to get to that point. Throughout the book there's this very nice pacing and a sense of danger and mystery and suspense and action, but right at the end it was stopped too fast in my opinion.
Even so, I did enjoy the books and I will be reading the next ones in the series.
I feel a bit undecided about this book as there were parts of it that I liked but parts that frustrated me .
Plot: 3/5
The plot is slightly different to your normal YA books at the moment with the involvement of Fey in the story but it still wasn't amazing. At times the plot moved quickly and was exciting but at times it moved slowly and was full of details that didn't seem necessary to the story. Also I feel there are the beginnings of a love triangle in this series which is a theme in YA that is getting old now.
Characters: 2/5
The main character Meghan is another frustrating female protagonist who spends most of her time needing to be saved by "her knight in shining armour", (the males in the novel). This is a boring character trait that a lot of YA main characters have that I find very annoying. Meghan also spends a lot of the start of the novel whining about things which makes her a bit unlikeable. The two males are a bit two dimensional and we don't know very much about them at this time.
Overall: 3/5
This is an alright YA novel which is based around an interesting idea but which doesn't quite deliver as much as you hope it would. Overall worth a read but I don't think I will bother continuing the series.
Meghan Chase has a past and future that she can't imagine. She lives on a pig farm with her mother, stepfather, and stepbrother far from town and takes the bus to her high school. She has been seeing things her whole life but never believed them. Her original father had disappeared and left behind no clues besides his shoes. When her little brother is traded out with a strange creature her best and only friend must reveal the world of Faery to her. Also revealing his true identity, the legendary Puck. She is desperate to find her brother and forces Puck to take her to the faery world to find him. Facing dangers only dreamed of by others and discovering terrible truths all the way, Meghan tries to find information on her missing brother. Making a contract with an enemy to do so she is followed into the iron realm, where her brother is held captive. She sets out to complete her mission, kill the Iron King. It is done so with a witch-wood arrow, the heart of a dryads tree. With courage, hope, and love, Meghan Chase becomes legend.
I think that people who love fantasy, romance, and adventure would fall head over heels to get this book series. With surprises popping from pages and never ending adventure and story, I believe the Iron King is the book for you. I would rate this book four and one-half stars.

She has never quite fit in at school or at home. When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change. But she could never have guessed the truth--that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face, and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart"--P.

This year marks the 30th anniversary of SOG Specialty Knives. For three decades, SOG has created some of the most innovative knives on the market. Considering the sheer amount of competition and knives that have come out since 1986, that's saying something.
Let's take a deeper look at the brand and what they have in store for their 30th anniversary.
The History of SOG
The origins of SOG date back to the Vietnam War when members of a highly classified U.S. special ops unit carried a unique combat knife on covert missions. At one point, the U.S. Government denied the existence of the group, which was known as the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group (MACV-SOG).
Here's more about the group from an article by Leroy Thompson published in 1986.
Separate from "conventional," unconventional operations of the 5th Special Forces Group were the clandestine operations of Military Assistance Command Vietnam/Studies and Observations Group (MACV/SOG). The Studies and Observation Group (SOG) was a cover name to disguise SOG's real function, and the name "Special Operations Group," as it was sometimes called, described its real mission more accurately. Activated in January of 1964, SOG was a joint services unit composed of members from all four branches of the armed forces, including Navy SEALs, Marine Recons, Air Force Special Operations pilots of the 90th Special Operations Wing, but predominantly Army Special Forces.
MACV/SOG's missions included: cross border operations into Cambodia, Laos and North Vietnam to carry out intelligence gathering or raiding missions on the enemy's 'home ground'; gathering intelligence about POWs and carrying out rescue missions when possible; rescuing downed aircrews in enemy territory ("Bright Light" missions); training, inserting, and controlling agents in North Vietnam to gather intelligence or form resistance groups; carrying out 'black' Psy Ops such as operating fake broadcasting stations inside North Vietnam; kidnapping or assassinating key enemy personnel; retrieving sensitive document so equipment lost in enemy territory or in enemy hands; and inserting rigged mortar rounds or other booby-trapped ordnance in enemy arms caches (OPERATION ELDEST SON).
Needless to say, this group of heroes was no joke.

I have had it since 1995 and it has always grown well
for me (which is saying a lot). It has always bloomed
every year also. One year I counted 11 buds. I just
love this variety. On the other hand, I had trouble
growing Notorious which is similar in appearance.

Sixty-nine years ago in the opening months of 1944, the untested Fourth Marine Division moved into action in the Marshall Islands. The first targets were the causeway-connected islands of Roi and Namur. Roi, containing only an airstrip, easily fell without major resistance, but the situation on Namur was quite different.
Neshoba County Private First Class Herman Leo Johnson, Company E, Second Battalion, 24th Regiment of the Fourth Division, fought with a machine gun squadron, near a large Japanese blockhouse, a building that protected a hidden sniper. Another Mississippi,
Roy Pittman, threw a 25-pound satchel charge into the stronghold, jumped into a hole for cover, awaiting the blast. Private Johnson, about 100 yards away, lay flat on the ground for protection.
Unknown to the Marines, the concrete building actually contained 84 tons of torpedo warheads. Johnson, knocked unconscious by the tremendous explosion, later recalled that the detonation "rocked ships 10 miles at sea."
The force also severed the heads from the standing American soldiers, and the death toll included about 30 Marine infantrymen.
The Fourth Marine Division then returned to Hawaii for replacement troops.
Army Air Corps Master Sergeant William Brooks Hooper also faced hazards and dangers of his own, but far different than those that confronted Private First Class Herman Johnson. His islands were the desolate Aleutians, Territory of Alaska, and his command was the 42nd Troop Carrier Squadron.
For nearly two years, the 42nd Squadron flew C-47 cargo planes laden with men and supplies from Alaska down the entire length of the chain through some of the continent's harshest weather conditions.
On the return flights, the C-47s served as hospital ships to bring out casualties from little known islands named Attu, Kiska, Adak and Umnak.
After rotating to Lawson Field, Georgia, March 1944, Sergeant Hooper recalled some of the problems: "Weather was so bad that crews slept in heatless aircraft to protect them against shifting winds.
Ice formed on wings up to 10 inches thick. Gasoline 'jeep' stoves refused to operate because of extreme cold. Hands froze to spark plugs when they were changed."
During combat, the lumbering transports often served to lead fighter aircraft through snow, sleet and fog, to their targets, and then guiding them to their return bases.
The 42nd Squadron logged more than 8,900 hours during their 24-month assignment in Alaska.

There's been more than enough grim news this morning. How about something lighter?
The Los Angeles Times catches up with the every-12-years story that since it's the "Year of the Dragon" in the zodiac cycle that means "in Chinese, Vietnamese and other Asian communities across the world" this is thought to be an especially fortunate time to have a baby.
And it says that "in the United States, the allure of the dragon baby still holds for many families. 'We've had a 250% increase in Chinese, Vietnamese clients in the last two months,' said Kathryn Kaycoff Manos, co-founder of Global IVF and Agency for Surrogacy Solutions in Los Angeles."
As The Associated Press has explained, "the Chinese [and many other Asians] believe that babies born in this iteration of the 12-year Zodiac cycle are gifted with prodigious quantities of luck and strength. In ancient times the dragon was a symbol reserved for the Chinese emperor, and it is considered to be an extremely auspicious sign."
Taiwan President May Ying-jeou has encouraged his constituents to get busy, so to speak. The Year of the Dragon began on Jan. 23.
Full disclosure: This blogger's daughter is a Year of the Dragon baby. And in this dad's humble opinion, she indeed is blessed.

The Army is phasing out the controversial practice of involuntarily extending tours of duty, known as "stop-loss". Defense Secretary Gates has sought to end the practice since he began his term in the last administration. He calls "stop-loss", "breaking faith with a servicemember". The first Army units deploying in August won't have to deal with stop-loss. Til then, soldiers who are 'stop-lossed' will get an extra $500 a month in their pay. I'm Max Cacas
