Wonderful stay at the Welch Riverview Re"treat"

Wonderful stay at the Welch Riverview Re"treat"
July 25, 2016
Our family of four felt renewed after our stay. The home is set back off the highway with a nice big yard and privacy. The view is spectacular. We watched a Great Lakes Ore Boat go by every morning out on the Lake Superior. The central location between Marquette and Munising lets you enjoy the scenic views and all the towns have to offer. We brought our own kayaks but enjoyed the canoe that was there for our use along with the badmitton, volleyball ,horseshoes, charcoal grill and fire pit. We truly felt revived after our stay. Lots of room in the home and the sauna, tub and pool table kept us busy. It was nice having the WiFi and the Satellite tv but we played the board games that were there also. All you need is your food , clothing and family everything is there in a nice clean environment along with a washer and dryer. We will surely be back again!!

This home is set back from highway with a private setting. Plenty of room with three floors in the home . The view of the lake and river will have you sitting on one of the two decks just relaxing and enjoying the view. It was easy to launch our kayaks from the yard into the river which flows into Lake Superior. There is also a canoe there complete with life vests and fish to be caught. Every morning we could see an ore boat (ship) going by from the dock in Marquette. We took a ride to the free Lakenenland Junk Art toward Marquette and there are many beach areas along the way to Munising. The central location lets you venture to Munising or Marquette in a short amount of time. We just enjoyed sitting on the deck, tried volleyball and badminton sets that was there, played the board games and being on/near the water. We were rejuvenated by the time we left . You can count on us being regulars! It was nice to have the wifi and satellite but we mostly enjoyed just being there with each Other. The pool table , sauna and tub were a plus! There is also a charcoal grill to use and fire pit with wood for a campfire. There is a quiet big back yard with no close neighbors for privacy. Everything you pretty much need is there. Just bring your cloths , food and family and walk away feeling refreshed as we did. For those of you who snowmobile a trail isn't far! Marquette has plenty of bike trails along the shore line. Munising has the boat tours along with kayak rentals. Or just relax along the shores of the fresh clear waters of Lake Superior. You will fell at home at the Welch Retreat when you return from your nearby adventures.

Me and my friends really loved the place. We were amazed by its beauty and great location. We spent our night gazing stars and were lucky enough to spot some shooting stars and were even able to see the milky way. the master bedroom on the 2nd floor has an amazing view. I thoroughly recommend this place.

Fully enjoyed our visit. The house was ideal - we canoed on the river and on the lake, visited Pictured Rocks, and spent most of our time exploring outdoors. House location and amenities are great, only slight issues were lack of AC (but we had unusually hot weather) and lack of curtains/blinds on the windows in the master bedroom (but the beautiful views more than made up for that).
Loved this place!

The views were great! Perfect location if you are visiting Marquette or Munising, right in the middle. The room was great, plenty of it. The kids loves the sauna and the laundry shoot. The pool table down stairs was odd in placement because it was difficult to play with so little room and only one stick was tough to have fun. Dont know what dish package that you have but no espn or fox sports Detroit was difficult to handle with not seeing the Tigers. The biggest problem that we had was the lack of hot water. After a bath for the kids there was no hot water for adult showers. Overall, decent stay the good outweighed the bad.

Excellent locale between Munising and marquette. Property was very clean and quiet. The views of plane superior from the house are amazing. The jet boat ride in Munising ( riptide rush) was lots of fun for all of us ( adults and teens). consider adding shades/ curtains to upstairs windows( riverside) to block lights from highway at night. Would def stay here again.

Welch's Vacation rental was a nice experience. The house was clean and decorated appropriately for an Up-North vacation home. Managers - Paul and Kelly - were great and helpful with not only the home, but area information on what to see and do. Nice location for activities all along the superior lakeshore. Outside of the weather being less than summer-ideal AND the mosquitos, had a great time.

Our stay was pleasant and peaceful. The upper peninsula is a little slice of heaven. The only downside is that Molly is difficult to get a hold of. It was like pulling teeth to get her to respond to emails or calls. I was only able to get a hold of her about an hour before we were supposed to check in - after leaving many messages and emails. The experience would have been less stressful if there was a better facilitator for the cabin.

Great place to get away and relax. Nice property very clean with all the amenities. I've got some great memories and would stay again. If your new to the area and like to hike check out Grand Island in Munising. Also, the log slide further East of Munising is fabulous. This area is like the hidden jewel of the Mid-West. What an awesome place.

This place is great from the amenities to the location and views. We had six adults and a yellow lab. Everyone enjoyed the stay. All we brought was our food. Everything else we needed was there. We will be coming back during the summer to enjoy the Sand River and the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.

We went up to see the U.P. 200 Dog Sled races. Saw the start in Marquette ~ exciting and fun to see. Went back to the house and got to see the mushers and their teams cross the very road the house was on. Very cool to see! The house worked out great as we had a blizzard the next day which was awesome. With pool table, dart board and sauna we managed to stay sane and really enjoyed our time there. Living area and bedrooms were comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked and we made some great meals. Loved the fireplace in the dining room/kitchen, very cozy during the blizzard! Would definitely rent again. I'd loved to see the yard and river in the summer. The winter view was amazing and enjoy by all.
Great time with Friends.

A few friends got together and we decided to spend a wknd. This was a great choice, we had many things to do like swim in the freshest body of water in the world. Hiking thru beautiful woods. Canoeing on river. Great evenings watching the moon and stars from the Beautiful deck. We would go back again, if we were able to.

Comfortable and cozy rooms, the entire ambience was amazing. We felt right at home! The management was great; warm and welcoming. There were enough activities to keep all the children and adults entertained for the entire week of our visit. The riverfront views were spectacular! The jacuzzi tub in the master suite is the best!

We really enjoyed our week long stay at the River Retreat. The weather was super and we were able to hang out by the water and ride bicycles during the day. Evening brought amazing stars and bonfires outside, then a relaxing sauna and game of pool by the bar inside. The real highlight was the view in the morning with a cup of coffee. Marquette was close enough to enjoy some shopping and restaurants like the Sweet Water Cafe. We took the bicycles on the trail by the lake out to Presque Isle and back through town. We'd like to go back in the winter for a ski vacation. What a beautiful place to 'reset' and take a break.

Thought it would be nice to get away for the week and go see fall color up in UP. A little early for all the tree to have turned but we did see some fall color. Did some rock climbing/hiking by way of exploring. Very close to the lake. The Place was big enough. We had 2 bedrooms not be used. We would definitely be seeing about coming back next year.

Enjoyed our few days at Welch's Riverview Retreat. House is a little dated, but comfortable. Our only complaint would be the water pressure. The property manager stopped by on our 3rd day, and when I informed him of the water pressure issue, he quickly changed the filter and that seemed to correct the problem. So if you stay here, and the water pressure is not good when you first arrive, let them know. We lived with the issue for 3 days thinking that was normal. Also, would be nice if they provided internet access. Cell phone reception is almost non-existant. My partner had no reception at all with AT&T. I have Verizon, and had limited reception. Otherwise, we enjoyed our time there.

We had a wonderful family time in this house ~ the house was very comfortable and convenient. When the weather warmed up the mosquitos did too! But once the weather cooled they were less invasive. The horseshoe pit, the volleyball court and the canoe were fantastically fun! The view was spectacular. Thank you for making our vacation so enjoyable and comfortable!

My stay here was way too short while spending just a couple of days here visiting friends in Marquette. The weather turned out to be fantastic and the view of the Sand River and Lake Superior exceeded all of my expectations. The house was nicely furnished and very comfortable. The bar, rec room, and sauna downstairs were a real treat and having the use of a canoe was an added bonus. It was wonderful paddling on the Sand River. The view from the upstairs master bedroom was spectacular with a great jacuzzi tub to relax in while taking in the lake view. My whole experience here exceeded my expectations and hope to return soon for a longer stay.

Friends and Supporters:
We are one step closer to getting the feasibility study underway for the railroad station. We just issued the Request for Proposals for the historic structure feasibility study and are looking forward to submissions that are this week. A feasibility study is required in order to apply for state and federal funding. Additionally, the completed study will provide us with more detailed information about the station's condition, in order to give us a better understanding of how much work and funds are needed to complete the overall project.
In the meantime, we've cleaned out the interior of the station and around the exterior. It looks so much better! Check out the attached photo of the new sign we also placed on the each end of the station.
Donations still needed in order to cover the required match of state and federal funding, which varies by program. We hope you'll spread the work of our work and efforts to rehabilitate the historic 1849 Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad station into a community and visitors center and a gateway to the Viaduct Valley Way Scenic Byway.
Thank you for your continued help and support!

Cap Seller is a lovely lucid tale for children. It illustrates how common sense and wisdom can prevail over force and war. It's a famed tale in Indian tradition. It teaches wisdom to children in a very intriguing way with characters that children can easily relate to.
After all Childhood is full of fantasies fanned by a fertile imaginative. So, stories are a lovely medium to gently accustom children to the ways of the world and to inculcate wisdom.
This story speaks about a cap seller who uses his common sense and wisdom to get out of a sticky situation without having to suffer a loss in his business or pick up a fight with the monkeys.
The twist in tale happens as the cap seller goes to sleep under a tree and the monkeys take playfully take away all his caps. He wakes up to shock – he sees the monkeys wearing them sitting on the branches of the tree and making faces at him. They do everything he does. So, this sparks an idea!
He throws his cap on the ground and needless to say, they do the same! So, the seller gets wants he wants in a clever way without having to fight with or offend anybody. He just packs his caps and walks on all gaily and happy.
Next Education presents this lovely story as part of its educational content made available in a tablet. The animation artists use warm vivid colours and powerful visuals that is sure to appeal to any child.

Dear Clyde and others,
I, too, have been trying to follow the discussion on OS and TC but am
having difficulty in meaning of words. Let's take your message and I
will discuss it to show you what I mean.
You call it a discussion of TC vs OS. I would not make such a
distinction using the "vs" connotation because in some cases TC could be
the same as OS...in H.'June', for example.
The second point I would make make regarding your post is that the 1000
plants Tc'ed from 'Janet' which look like 'Janet' are technically
identical and are clones of 'Janet' but I would not call them OS. The
common usage of this word is by growers and sellers of plants who wish
to use this term to perhaps guarantee that no mistakes have been made in
the labeling and continuity of correctness about the plant in question.
A side issue is that Alex tells me about four incidences in which he
received plants identified as OS from four "originators" and all four
were incorrect. So go figure!
If you get a mutant of Janet, yes, you get a sport. A sport is also
obtained if all other causes of permanent changes occur such as, tissue
transfers, chromosome breaking and rejoining ( called a crossover or
recombinant), mutations of DNA in plastids, mutations of mitochondria,
mutations of genes in chromosomes and who knows what else we will learn
about this in the future?
You say that hostas are highly unstable and variable. I would modifiy
this statement to say that chimeras (variegaterd hostas) are unstable
and variable. The green and yellow forms are relatively stable. The
chimeras include the mediovariegated, sectorial chimeras (those with
half and half leaves), streaked forms, snow flurry forms and the
marginally variegated forms.
You asked what is the controversy about. The example I have just given
represents my attempt to make corrections in the proper use of terms so
that the statements are more correct. There is nothing personal in
making these correction suggestions. It is an attempt to try to be
helpful in providing my understanding of the proper meaning and usage of
the terms. My analysis is that the controversy is about differences of
opinions and what we think is true, differences in basic motivations,
differences in understanding of terms, differences in personal
philosophies, and differences in communicating correctly. I doubt these
differences can be resolved and agreed upon.

After a wonderfully late lie in, and several cups of coffee, we headed out to the charming city of Lewes to sample some of the local drink. The town is roughly 15 miles from Horsted Keynes, through winding lanes which resemble something out of midsommer murders or an Austen novel. I remarked to cousin Mary that I would have been happy to continue driving in this manner all day, but fortunately her good judgement in denying me this pleasure proved to be far ...
Wineham to see lovely Katie!
... Katarina got a lovely jacket and top.
Sunday night we went over to Andy and Debbie's for tea, which was divine! We then enjoyed a nice walk around Hurstpierpoint via the park and playground. Such a lovely weekend with great company. Thanks guys! Look forward to you all visiting London in a couple of weeks so we can go and celebrate my birthday at a Greek restaurant.
Sunday Roast and Other Fine Delicacies
Took the slow train from Purley to London Victoria Station to meet Jo for lunch (we can now cross tapas off our "unachievable" long to-do list). So glad I got to see London's pretty Christmas decorations. Wandered around the fancy shops near Piccadilly Circus and Oxford Street, saw a great photo contest at the Portrait Gallery and shared a few pints at the pubs near Covent Garden. I really don't like it when I'm prohibited from photographs at a museum. I ...

... 000 for the evening�s antics, we paused only to rug up before heading straight on in to town to ensure we found a good spot to watch the processions.
As it is pitch black by 4.30pm, we arrived just in time to see the young upcoming processionists racing burning barrels down the narrow lanes. What followed next can only be described as ridiculous. Burning torches and burning crosses were carried by people from villages around the area. They were dressed ...
I bussed back to London and spent a few days with friends south of the city and stashed my suitcase with them, buying a lighter shoulder bag to use for the next part of the trip. I decided to bus to Italy - not a good idea in retrospect but I was unaware of the cheap european airlines at the time. My trip started at 8 am from London's Victoria ...

8:00 pm
which means bigger and more spectator hits. hynes ward said take the football off, with leather helmets, when you put a helmet on you use it as a weapon. an interesting idea, you don't hit as hard without the pads, you don't want to say these days were easier, football was hard and they died, too. football is not going to be safe as long as it is built around giant men colliding against each other, giving as much force as they can. but in the end, you see the sidelines, didn't look like much, the announcer said, only late in the ad when the field is filled with the gladiators, nobody wants to watch a game that doesn't look like much. that is "the last word." i'm ezra klein in for lawrence o'donnell, "the ed show" is up
8:01 pm
next. >> our law enforcement officers should never be outgunned on the streets. >> the president pounds away on gun safety as shiny objects dominate the beltway media coverage. >> how often does the president go skeet shooting? and are there photographs of him doing so? >> tonight, i'll take the fourth estate to task for missing the big picture with katrina vanden heuvel of "the nation" and msnbc's richard wolffe. plus, minneapolis mayor r.t. rybak on how he is lowering gun violence in his city, and why he thinks senate majority leader harry reid needs to get to work on guns. the boy scouts are getting ready to end their policy of discrimination against gays, and the president is standing with them. >> should scouting be open to gays?
8:02 pm
>> yes. >> i'll tell you how conservatives are fighting the process. it's the super bowl commercial everybody is talking about. >> god looked down on his planned paradise and said i need a caretaker. so god made a farmer. >> god created the family farmer. i'll tell you how republicans are destroying them. all that plus e.j. dionne, karen finney and jonathan alter on why conservatives are actually trying to blame the super bowl blackout on the president. good to have you with us tonight, folks. thanks for watching. there is a major development on gun legislation today, but there is a good chance you haven't heard about it. president obama continued the push for commonsense gun reform today in minneapolis. he was surrounded by law enforcement officers with the city and the state. the president asked americans to stand with the men and women in the line of fire. >> weapons of war have no place on our streets or in our schools or threatening our law
8:03 pm
enforcement officers. our law enforcement officers should never be outgunned on the streets. [ applause ] >> the president has outlined a full list of proposals to curb gun violence in america. very quietly, many of those proposals are picking up steam on capitol hill. senate majority leader harry reid said he expects a bill will soon move to the senate floor. the package will include a universal background check, a capacity limit on ammunition magazines, and improvements to record-keeping on mental illness. a universal background check is in sight. and this is probably what they're really going to get. advocacy groups are trying to build momentum. last night, this ad from mayors against illegal guns aired during the super bowl. >> the nra once supported background checks. >> we think it's reasonable to provide mandatory instant criminal background checks for every sale at every gun show.
8:04 pm
no loopholes anywhere for anyone. >> america can do this for us. >> opponents of a background check rely on fearmongering. nra chief wayne lapierre spread ridiculous lies on fox news sunday. >> what they'll do is they'll turn this universal check on the law abiding into a universal registry of law-abiding people. and law-abiding people don't want that. >> well, law-abiding people want a universal background check system. more than nine in ten gun households want one. more than eight in ten nra members say the same thing. the president is quick to point out the popularity of the law. >> we know, for example, from polling that universal background checks are universally supported just about by gun owners. the overwhelming majority of gun owners think that's a good idea. so if we have lobbyists in washington claiming to speak for gun owners saying something
8:05 pm
different, we need to go to the source and reach out to people directly. we can't allow those filters to get in the way of common sense. >> the gun lobby is worried. the president is making headway on this issue, which is why his opponents insist on distracting the country with things like this. the white house released a photo of president obama skeet shooting while at camp david in august. in fact, it was on his birthday. the gun lobby wants everyone to be talking about this photo. and the press, what are they doing? they're playing right along with it. this all started when the "new this all started when the "new republic" released a wide-ranging interview with the president. but the focus has been on this exchange. the president was asked directly, have you ever fired a gun? he answered directly, yes. in fact, up at camp david, we do skeet shooting all the time. the answer created a frenzy in the washington media. >> how often does the president go skeet shooting, and are there
8:06 pm
photographs of him doing so? >> i would refer you simply to his comments. i don't know how often. he does go to camp david with some regularity, but i'm not sure how often he has done that. >> is there a photograph of him doing it? >> there may be, but i haven't seen it. >> why haven't we heard about it before? >> because when he goes to camp david, he goes to spend time with his family and friends and relax, not to produce photographs. >> that's what the american people want to know. that's really what they want to know. all these issues on the table, it's just how many, how often, where, does he really? jay carney's answer is never going to be good enough, because it's about president obama. "the washington post" wrote more than 1300 words fact checking the president's answer. they wrote, "we are eager to see a photograph or hear from someone who saw him at the skeet range to put this matter to rest." of course, fox news was quick to keep the fire raging all week long. so the white house, all right, they went along with it. they released a photograph. now what do you think? instead of ending the
8:07 pm
conversation, the press forced it even more. focused on it even more. now, "the washington post" was on defense. basically, all statements by public figures are subject to scrutiny. the president made an unexpected claim. and for nearly a week the white house refused to back it up. but in the end, they concluded the issue is settled. not according to the white house press corps. these are some of the questions jay carney was asked during his media availability today. why release the photo now? was the president shooting skeet or trap? does he ever shoot weapons or did he ever shoot weapons before he was president? did he ever shoot weapons elsewhere? will you release photos of friends or family or guests? carney responded, "the fact is that the president was asked a question. he did not volunteer, but was asked a question about whether
8:08 pm
or not he had ever shot a weapon. he answered with the truth, which is he has enjoyed shooting competitively with friends at camp david on multiple occasions. did they all pick up on that? multiple occasions. this photo completely overshadowed the talk of universal background checks is what we should be talking about and also did nothing to end protests. the president knocked the nra, saying one picture does not ease a lifetime of supporting every gun ban, every gun control scheme imaginable. the washington press has a responsibility to ask the president tough questions about things affecting all americans. a photo of the president shooting skeet does not affect gun laws one bit. it only distracts from the major issues at hand. so the bottom line comes down to this. the smiles are great at the press conferences with jay carney, but is this really what the american people are concerned about, what the president does on his free time at camp david?
8:09 pm
and does he always have to step forward with some evidence that he has told the truth to reporters? and this is just a big demand coming from the washington media that he has to show this photo so everybody will believe that he really has touched a gun and fired a gun and has some noise canceling headsets on. kind of parallels the birthers, doesn't it? we won't believe it until we see it and then we still won't believe it after we see it. get your cell phones out. i want to know what you think. tonight's question, does the beltway media have america's best interest at heart? text "a" for yes, text "b" for no. got a new number tonight. here's the text number. 67622. i have to learn how to say that fast. that's right. we have a new text number. it is now 67622. you can always go to our blog at ed.msnbc.com. we'll bring you the results later in the program. i'm joined tonight by katrina vanden heuvel editor and part owner of "the
8:10 pm
nation" magazine and richard wolffe, the executive editor of msnbc.com and an msnbc political analyst. great to have both of you with us tonight. i've never seen a picture get so much attention except when dick cheney shot somebody in the face, which the president hasn't done. katrina, is the press being negligent when we start getting down to the serious conversation of background checks that they're focusing on stuff like this? >> yeah, i mean, i think we're looking at inside the beltway media malpractice. and it's not new, ed. i'm thinking we're on the tenth much of the press played the press essentially much of the press played stenographers to power, not an accountability watchdog media which we need. this skeet shooting incident has nothing to do, it's utterly irrelevant with the actual policy proposals now under debate. so you have to ask yourself, who does the media inside the beltway think it's representing? we've seen these problems before. the country is worried about joblessness. inside the beltway, the media keeps pushing the president on
8:11 pm
debt and deficits. i'd like to know also, i don't you think of the fundamental issues confronting this country, but on the gun issue, why wasn't there a single question about the 15-year-old chicago girl, hadiya pendleton, who marched in the parade in the inauguration and was gunned down, the 42nd victim of gun violence in chicago in january? that might be relevant to the issue of how do you stop trafficking of illegal weapons and relevant to the actual policy debates under way in this country. >> richard, why does inside the beltway media have a propensity to just focus on things that people don't care about? >> look, i've been part of that press corps. i was there actually at the time in the run-up to the war in iraq, and, by the way, there were people asking those questions, but as a pack, as a pack mentality, this is a game. look, the war in iraq was serious. don't get me wrong. but we're talking about kids in america who were killed and how to respond to that. and so, you know, the disjoint between this photo, what the
8:12 pm
president does in his leisure time, whether it's real or not, how often he does it, and the cold, hard facts of american children being killed by assault weapons in our schools, that seems to be -- we didn't know where iraq would go. i'm not trying to make any excuses for how the press corps behaved. but we have two very compelling stories here. one of them is actually about children dying and how you respond to that. and the other is about a photo. so i actually think they have kind of disappeared into their own world and their own competitive desires, which is let's have some fun with this. let's get some clicks and let's have something that is shareable. people love that photo. but at the heart, if you're going to hold people accountable, if "the washington post" is true to its word, you hold public officials accountable not for a random comment, but for their policy, for the effects of their policy. >> that's right. there has to be -- >> that is what the job of the
8:13 pm
press is. >> there has to be a sense of an accountability media. and i think too often, and it comes from the top too when we face corporations where the news enterprise is a small cog in the system, that you're witnessing sometimes the obliteration of the line between news and entertainment. that's why there was more attention to beyonce was she lip-synching or not than to perhaps some of the issues and policies in the president's inaugural address or kim kardashian's baby bump. those kinds of issues take too much of our time when we should be talking about the crises facing our country. and too often the beltway media follows power, doesn't raise the tough questions that people in a democracy deserve to hear. we need to learn more about what is going on with the gun debate. and, by the way, the president going to minneapolis i think is very important because he needs to get outside of d.c. and press his message, as he did in las vegas with immigration, as he did today in minneapolis. a city which has seen a drop of youth gun violence by 41%. and those optics of law enforcement behind him. he knows he needs to do what he didn't do effectively as much
8:14 pm
post-2008. get out of the beltway. >> that's where he is most effective, there is no question about that. but here we are on the verge of trying to get something done. and the media is focusing on the president skeet shooting instead of the president talking about universal background checks and will harry reid actually bring the assault weapons ban to the floor. some real heavy stuff. >> but we've seen this before. the serious policy debates don't get the coverage they deserve. but the president can drive it more. and media like "the nation" or msnbc can try to amplify the serious messages that need to be heard, the serious policy, the serious accountability journals that needs to be heard if there is going to be some advance. >> let's just be clear here, okay. so say the president gets the background checks that we all assume that is going to be there. and if wayne lapierre thought it was a good deal once, then maybe he'll think ultimately it's a good deal again. but that wouldn't have stopped this particular shooting in
8:15 pm
newtown, however, the high-capacity magazines, that's where the press needs to ask the questions. is the president willing to go out, stick his neck out on the line for this and say this is what his administration really cares about? that's where, you know, there is real journalism to be done in terms of what the white house strategy is. >> closing the gun show loophole would be a big step forward because that's 40% of the sales in this country. obviously, the background checks, the magazine, all of that stuff, you know, people's lives have definitely been lost because of some things have slipped through the cracks. we can do a better job. yet, we're focusing on the president skeet shooting. i find it amazing. great to have both of you with us tonight, katrina vanden heuvel and richard wolffe. remember to answer tonight's question there at the bottom of the screen. share your thoughts with us on twitter, ed show and on facebook. we want to know what you think. coming up, president obama tries to offer solutions, but the nra mouthpiece wayne lapierre keeps. throwing up roadblocks. and in minneapolis they have reduced crimes by 40%. r.t. rybak joins us. . . step seven point two one two.

welcome back to "the ed show." today president obama pushed for solutions to gun violence by taking his ideas for commonsense measures to minneapolis, which has had huge success on the issue. >> this city came together. you launched a series of youth initiatives that have reduced the number of young people injured by guns by 40%. >> this week then we learned of another high-profile senseless killing. former navy s.e.a.l. chris kyle and another man, chad
8:21 pm
littlefield, were killed saturday at a gun range in texas. the two men had taken a veteran, former marine eddie ray routh, to the gun range, and routh allegedly shot both of them. routh reportedly has a recent history of mental illness and is in police custody on a suicide watch. the gun lobbyists' self-appointed mouthpiece wayne lapierre was asked about the latest tragedy. >> you fix the mental health system. every police officer knows people on the street that should be institutionalized because we've emptied our institutionalized. they're out there walking around on the street. we need to change our civil commitment laws. we need to change the mental health system, fund it, make it work, get these people into treatment. we're not doing that. i still would like to see the mental health records computerized but we can't even get that done. >> he was asked about the president's push for background checks. here's what he had to say about that.
8:22 pm
>> it's a fraud to call universal. it's never going to be universal. the criminals aren't going to comply with it. they could care less. you're not going to computerize -- you've already seen you're not going to computerize the mental health records. so here's what's going to happen. we ought to quit calling it right now universal checks. the real title ought to be the check on law-abiding people all over this country. >> lapierre fully supported background checks in 1999. >> let's talk what is reasonable and what is not. we think it's reasonable to provide mandatory instant criminal background checks for every sale at every gun show. no loopholes anywhere for anyone. >> the solutions for these tragedies aren't always simple, but it doesn't mean we should be giving up. joining me now is r.t. rybak, mayor of minneapolis. the president -- great to have you with us tonight, r.t. i appreciate your time for coming in on this subject. it's so vitally important. >> i'm thrilled you're covering it, ed. >> you bet. president obama praised the efforts of your city. how did you do it? how were you able to impact the
8:23 pm
youth gun violence in minneapolis? >> well, the minneapolis model for reducing gun violence was really especially about young people. we focused on -- got the whole community together, 32-point plan that was really tied to surrounding young people with trusted adults and intervening at the first sign of at-risk behavior. and we worked the plan and worked the plan and worked the plan. 40% decrease in juvenile crime is a huge impact. but one of the reasons the president was here was to say that was good work. but one of the reasons we wanted him here was to say it's not enough. we need commonsense laws because i've been at too many homicides with a mom and a kid who is dead and trying to explain where did that gun come from. and there are laws that say the police and the federal officials can't share information, there are laws that say mental health records can't be computerized. change those laws. fix that, and help us bring a little more peace to the streets. >> where are we right now? i bring you forward on this
8:24 pm
subject. i understand you were critical of harry reid today. here's senate majority leader harry reid. i want you to respond to this. >> i have said to senator leahy, i want a bill to come out of the judicial committee. if dianne feinstein by the time it's through the judiciary committee, if she doesn't have her assault weapons, at least let her have an opportunity to offer this amendment. >> will you vote for it? >> oh, i don't know. frankly, and she knows, i haven't read her amendment. i didn't vote for the assault weapons last time because it didn't make sense. but i'll take a look at it. >> mayor, is senator reid doing enough to move this legislation? >> i believe he should read the amendment and listen to a former mayor, dianne feinstein, who stuck her finger in a bullet hole at a scene of a crime. that's what we see as mayors. in washington assault ban weapon, it's a political issue. here is how it sounds to me. my daughter will be teaching school next year. if somebody is in the horrible situation of shooting in that classroom, and they're forced to
8:25 pm
reload the gun, that may be my daughter's life, that may be your child's life. force people to reload. my god, if we can't do that, it's horrible enough about what is happening out here. but stop and think about it. when you hear assault weapons ban, don't think what they're talking about in washington. think about forcing people to reload so we can walk back at least a few lives in mass murder. my god, isn't that enough? >> so you're saying that in washington, the assault weapons ban is political. would you go so far as to say that the lobbyists are intimidating the lawmakers? the lawmakers know what to do, they just won't do it? >> well, i'm a politician. a lot of things are political. but what does seem to happen is there is this whole thing like oh, gee, the nra is going to unelect me. well, by the way, they lost most of the elections. they lost their number one goal, which was to stop president obama. so let's get away from this idea that everything we do has to be because we're afraid of the nra. there are lots of good nra members, and they're law-abiding citizens. their leaders are seemingly out of control.
8:26 pm
and what we need to do is to have people get a backbone and say that, yeah, it is right to not have our police outgunned. yes, it is right to say that if we have the option between a shooting and a mass murder, we should choose, my god, the least of those hideous things. that's the kind of common sense we need people to have and guts we need them to have. and, by the way, if you're afraid of the nra, i want you to talk to some of the real lobbyists out here, the people who have been victims, whose families have lost people. they're by the thousands now in this country, and they're multiplying every day. you want to see a lobby that is going to be on your case if you don't take action? we got them all over this country. >> but why isn't harry reid being stronger, in your opinion? i mean, you heard his answer there. he said he didn't vote for it before. doesn't sound like he is going to vote for it again. isn't this a moment for leadership? i mean, if the majority of americans want this, shouldn't the senate majority leader step up and say, you know what, we got to move in this direction? >> i don't think harry reid is
8:27 pm
the only problem. the problem is that folks in washington have calculated that they think it's bad politics to be for banning weapons and clips that force you to reload. they think that's bad politics. and i think their calculation is just wrong. i think it's good politics. and, my god, it's the right thing to do. >> mayor r.t. rybak, good to have you with us on "the ed show." thanks so much. coming up, chrysler ran a great super bowl ad this year praising the american family farmer. but farms will be in danger if congress fails to pass a farm bill. i'll have the details for you coming up. and who killed the likes of the super bowl? right-wingers have their theories. jonathan alter, karen finney and e.j. dionne will weigh in on that. stay with us. we'll be right back with "the ed show."

welcome back to "the ed show." thanks for watching tonight. you know, some voices just stop you in your tracks and command attention. last night, america was treated to a two-minute commercial about the american small farmer, voiced by the deceased radio icon paul harvey. harvey was the voice of middle america for 51 years. chrysler used a 1978 speech by paul harvey that he gave to the future farmers of america to highlight their new ram trucks. here is the rest of the story. >> and on the eighth day, god looked down on his planned paradise and said, i need a caretaker, so god made a farmer. it had to be somebody who would
8:32 pm
plow deep and straight and not cut corners, somebody to feed, weed, seed, break and strain the milk, somebody who would bale a family together with the soft, strong bonds of sharing, who would laugh and then sigh and then reply with smiling eyes when his son says that he wants to spend his life doing what dad does, so god made a farmer. >> that writing, that distinct delivery. spectacular ad, no doubt about it. but, unfortunately, being a family farmer in america is a dying profession. you can thank republicans for their decline. in 1935, there were 6.8 million farms in america. today the number has dropped to just over 2 million. and out of the remaining farms, most are struggling to stay in business. out of the 2.2 million farms in
8:33 pm
operation, 1.9 million are small family farms. small family farms make up, what? 87% of total farms in the united states, but they produce only 15% of the total crop value. on the other hand, very large family farms and corporate farms bring in the remaining 85% of profit in america in the industry. meanwhile, small family farms are always, i guess you could say, one disaster away from extinction. one in four of these farms make less than $50,000 a year. if a drought or any disaster hits, these small farms don't have a chance. but large farms and corporate farms can afford to take a hit from time to time. this is why it's so important for congress to do its part to protect the family farmer. it starts i guess you could say with the farm bill. price supports and disaster relief very important, are things that will only keep the family farms in business in tough times.
8:34 pm
the senate passed their version of the farm bill last session, but as expected, john boehner's do nothing house sat on the bill. and now it will have to be redone in the 113th congress. boehner doesn't need a single democratic vote to pass this thing. he has the majority. if he is for the american farmer, if he is for the heartland, he ought to bring the farm bill to the floor for a vote. but he refuses to do that. i hope john boehner and the rest of the house republicans watch chrysler's ad and understand what it means. farmers helped build america and are vital to our future success as a nation. if small family farms get into trouble, they deserve help from the government. chrysler did another fantastic job this year with their ad. they are providing and proving again what american exceptionalism is all about. there is a lot more to come in
8:35 pm
the next half hour of "the ed show." stay with us. >> uh-oh, we lost lights. >> when the lights went out in new orleans, you knew it was just a matter of time until republicans started blaming president obama. jonathan alter, e.j. dionne and karen finney on the politics of the big game is next. plus, the right-wing freak-out to the president's latest endorsement of equality. >> should scouting be open to gays? >> yes. and first it was a miracle in the desert. now ohio's radical republican governor is actually coming around on obama care. we'll explain john kasich's liberal conversion ahead.

humans. even when we cross our t's and dot our i's, we still run into problems. namely, other humans. which is why at liberty mutual insurance, auto policies come with new car replacement and accident forgiveness if you qualify. see what else comes standard at libertymutual.com. liberty mutual insurance. responsibility. what's your policy? by the armful? by the barrelful? the carful? how about...by the bowlful? campbell's soups give you nutrition, energy, and can help you keep a healthy weight. campbell's. it's amazing what soup can do. i don't really know exactly what is going on, so we're going to stay by the door, be close to an exit. but otherwise, staying calm. >> well, for 34 minutes, 108 million americans watched a stadium full of football fans sit in the dark.
8:39 pm
super bowl xlvii will probably be best remembered as the game where the lights went out. where was don meredith when we needed him? and now officials are trying to figure out just what the heck happened. the nfl has ruled out beyonce as the culprit. the entertainer used her own generators for the halftime show. and superdome authorities say that a substation detected an abnormality and automatically cut power. but at this point that's all they know. fortunately, conservatives have a few theories of their own. many right-wingers took to twitter and social media just blew up, and of course blaming the obama administration, pointing to this department of energy press release detailing the city of new orleans embracing of energy efficiency. "the daily caller" writing "what is more energy-efficient than darkness? green is the new blackout." this tweet from herman cain, "the department of energy wanted you to know that last night's super bowl was the greatest -- or the greenest ever.
8:40 pm
then the lights went out." from a "wall street journal" columnist, "super bowl xlvii is brought to you by solyndra." and from laura ingraham, "how long before we hear from the white house about the need for another multibillion stimulus to rebuild the power grid?" and donald trump, "the country is being run just like the stadium." meanwhile, former bush administration fema director michael brown -- you know brownie, who spent days ignoring what was going on in the superdome during hurricane katrina -- used the blackout to comment not on infrastructure, but on the residents of new orleans. "someone just told me there was fighting going on in new orleans superdome. #shocked." let's bring in our panel tonight. jonathan alter with us, bloomberg view, msnbc political analyst karen finney, and also "washington post's" e.j. dionne. well, sometimes the right just doesn't take a rest on anything.
8:41 pm
i was absolutely surprised to hear from brownie last night during the super bowl. who would have ever thought it? e.j., what was most surprising when it was all unfolding to you? >> well, first of all, i mean i'm just shocked that brownie wanted to get out there on anything having to do with new orleans. i just want to turn it around a little and say that my super bowl mvps are the electricians, the technicians and other workers who got those lights back on in a half hour, a little over a half an hour. i mean, we don't realize or think much about how much we depend on folks like that until we really need them. but in terms of these other explanations, i am just surprised that the right hasn't yet blamed beyonce for being a secret partner of solyndra. i mean, what are they going to come up with? >> the other point here is that, karen, they just never miss an opportunity to go after the president and degrade him, do they? >> that's right. and remember, i mean beyonce was a supporter of the president. so i'm sure if there is some way to pin it back on her, they will figure it out.
8:42 pm
but sure. any opportunity to blame the president. and, frankly, you know, the tweets that you just shared distract from what is a very real conversation that we should be having about the power grid, about infrastructure in this country. that's not a conversation they want to have. >> jonathan, your thoughts on how it all unfolded in the aftermath. >> well, you know, i kept being struck by why they didn't let the players warm up before they resumed play. they were risking injury. fortunately, there were not any injuries as a result. but it's standard in those situations to give them some warm-up time. then i realized money talks. you know, the advertisers obviously did not want to have any longer of a delay. there was so many -- there was so much money at stake that they were willing to risk injuries to resume the game. >> these guys are professionals. they know how to get ready. i was rather entertained by all the conversation about oh, how is this going to affect them psychologically?
8:43 pm
who has the advantage? finally it got back to phil simms and he said you know what? they're professionals. they know how to handle this. i tweeted out, "thank you, phil simms." >> no, but the 49ers had a huge psychological advantage after the blackout. it was really peculiar. they put all these points on the board right away. so sometimes these things can mark a kind of psychological break point in the momentum of a game. and the ravens went on to win. but they almost lost. >> i was sort of intrigued by the idea that nobody thought -- i mean, half the lights were on, and yet the thought of potentially, i don't know, continuing without all of the sort of bells and whistles that we have become so accustomed to was just not even an idea on the table. >> the super bowl didn't have a light backup plan. i mean, come on, america! i mean -- >> you know, this is only the kind of thing that nerds, political nerds like us would say. but the only comparable situation i can remember when the whole world was watching was in 1976 when jimmy carter and
8:44 pm
gerald ford were debating, and they had this blackout, this technical problem. and for several minutes, they just stood there on the stage. and, you know, 100 million americans just stood by until the debate resumed. >> well, i got to ask the question. who came out with the momentum after the lights went out? i can't remember that one. >> i think carter. he went on to win the election. >> but the 49ers and the ravens handled the blackout better i think than carter and ford did that night. >> we've got a commercial. e.j., your thoughts on paul harvey's voice being used on the future farmers of america and of course selling trucks. and we know that the landscape in america and life has changed so much in rural america. what did you make of this? >> well, i loved the ad. in fact, i thought what it reminded me of was the clint eastwood ad for chrysler. >> yeah. >> and, you know, the advantage they have is paul harvey is not going to come back with a chair at a republican convention. but i thought it was a beautiful ad. you almost expected to hear john
8:45 pm
cougar mellencamp's old songs that he used to sing at farm aid concerts is what i was thinking as i was watching. >> was there a political message there at all, do you think, karen? >> i do, actually. as it was playing, sort of thinking that there is a slice of america that we're losing. i mean, you talked about that, frankly, just before this segment. and there are very real reasons why family farmers and small farmers are struggling in this country. and, you know, there were beautiful images and things that we should be very proud of in terms of the american ethic of hard work and all of that. and yet we're not taking care of those values and not cherishing those values and doing the things that we can to preserve that in the ways that i think we could be. >> jonathan, what about the ad that the mayors against illegal guns took out? effective? your thoughts. >> yeah, i think it was effective. you know, this is a long twilight struggle, as jfk said about the cold war. this issue is not going to be resolved soon.
8:46 pm
it's not just about whether there is an assault weapons ban, whether this piece of legislation that comes up is as complete as you and i would like it to be. liberals and commonsense supporters of gun safety need to look at it in the long term. and the mayors are playing an important role, but they need more people -- >> yeah. >> -- like those in the farm ad in the chrysler ad. those folks to get involved to really make change on guns. >> jonathan alter, karen finney, e.j. dionne, great to have you with us tonight. thanks so much. ohio governor john kasich says yes to medicaid expansion. his republican resistance to obama care beginning to weaken. stay tuned. it's a new day. if your a man with low testosterone, you should know that axiron is here. the only underarm treatment for low t. that's right, the one you apply to the underarm. axiron is not for use in women or anyone younger than 18. axiron can transfer to others through direct contact.

welcome back to "the ed show." today ohio governor john kasich broke ranks with the republican party's unified objections to all things obama care and said that he will push to expand medicaid under the affordable care act. >> now, i, as you all know here, am not a supporter of obama care.
8:51 pm
but i think that this makes great sense for the state of ohio, and it makes great sense for the state of ohio because i think it will allow us to deliver care using our dollars to people who up until now haven't even been able to afford a care through their job or they weren't able to even find a job, and they're extremely poor. >> so he is not a fan of it, but he is going to go ahead and do it. okay. kasich is the fifth republican governor to make the case for medicaid expansion. and supposed obama care opponent

>> why so? >> because i think my attitude is gays and lesbians should have access and opportunity the same way everybody else does. >> major corporate sponsors want to lift the boy scouts ban on gay membership. the national executive board could vote this wednesday to lift the national gay ban and allow local troops to make their own decisions. rick santorum calls it a war on scouts. he says the board is abandoning the organization's founding moral principles. the former presidential candidate thinks it's a challenge to the scouts' very nature, and that the left is trying to remove god. santorum also predicts every troop will get sued, or members will just simply leave. santorum calls this the end of scouting and says, quote, i hope the board of the scouts doesn't have its fingerprints on the murder weapon. texas governor rick perry is equally dramatic. >> what has worked very well for
8:58 pm
scouting and to have popular culture impact 100 years of their standards is inappropriate. >> but this isn't about a fad or popular culture. scouting membership has dropped 21% since the supreme court upheld the gay ban in 2000. adult membership is down 14%. and there are almost 13% fewer scouting units nationwide. boy scout sponsors know we're a center-left nation. people like santorum and perry pretty much by the numbers are out of step. let's turn to michael rogers, gay activist and managing director of rawstory.com. mike, good to have you with us tonight. >> thanks, ed. good evening. >> the president weighing in on this, does this change anything? >> well, i think as we saw across the country when the president put out his opinion on marriage that people pay attention. he is able to use the bully pulpit to help educate americans. i've already heard from people
8:59 pm
today who were not even aware of the ban on the boy scouts having openly gay leaders and members. so i think just from an educational perspective and the certainty of his answer when you saw, when asked it was an immediate yes, no hesitation in any way whatsoever. and i think the american people see that and take that to heart. >> when you listen to staunch conservatives like santorum and rick perry, you have to ask the question, will lifting the ban on gays destroy scouting? they believe it will. >> well, you know, if something was destroyed every time rick perry or rick santorum said that it was going to be destroyed by some cause or action, the planet would be destroyed i think at this point. >> well, why does scouting ban gays? why have they in the past? >> thing has been a real misunderstanding that by banning gay people, they're protecting

When to Settle for a Lesser Job
By Paula Santonocito
You've been searching for a new job for months and haven't landed a position. Should you set your sights lower?
Still Looking
Before you make a decision, it's essential to have a clear understanding of the job market.
Yes, unemployment continues to rise and, as more people look for work, there is increased competition for available positions.
However, and this is a big however, many of the jobs lost in the current recession have been in fields like construction and the auto industry. The financial services field hasn't fared well either.
Interestingly, statistics also show that the U.S. recession has hit men harder than women from the standpoint of employment, and it's for this very reason.
Because male-dominated fields, like construction, have had more layoffs than female-dominated fields, such as health care, unemployment for women isn't as high as it is for men.
What does this mean to you as a job seeker?
Basically, the situation is more complex than unemployment numbers reveal and job fair lines suggest.
If you've been working in a field that's been walloped by the economic downturn, your job search will be more difficult. But if you're still in a relatively hot industry, like health care or technology, it may be advisable to continue the search.
Among the areas you'll want to review is whether your resume truly conveys your skills and experience and if you're networking to the best of your ability. Or, if you've been landing interviews, but haven't yet received a job offer, perhaps it's time to brush up on your interviewing skills.
Nevertheless, if you keep hitting a wall, you might feel you have no choice but to seek and accept a lesser position.
Before You Compromise
And it may be necessary to do so, at least temporarily. But before you decide to go this route, make sure you've exhausted your options.
These include changing industries. Can your skills and experience be transferred to an industry that's hiring? If so, you may be able to do the same kind of work in a different field.
Another possibility is to use your skills and experience in a slightly different role.
Here's an example. With companies hiring fewer employees, there's less demand for corporate recruiters. Yet many of the skills recruiters possess can be put to good use in sales, marketing, and training positions-and many displaced corporate recruiters have successfully transitioned to these roles.
Another option is to register with a staffing agency appropriate to your experience level. Companies hire a wide range of employees on a temporary basis, even executives.
Similarly, many consulting firms continue to seek talented professionals.
Exhausted and Desperate
Still, how do you know when it is time to compromise, perhaps compromise a lot?
Personal circumstances vary greatly, and yours will no doubt play a major part in whether you decide to settle for a lesser job or choose to keep searching for a more ideal position.
But, you should also be honest in assessing how you're handling the job search. Ask yourself if the lengthy job search is negatively affecting your self esteem. Also, has unemployment adversely impacted other aspects of your life? And finally, is it financially imperative that you have income sooner rather than later?
If the answer to all three questions is a resounding yes, it may be time to take that lesser job.
Keep in mind that if you do decide to settle, it doesn't have to be forever. The economy will eventually turn around and other opportunities will become available. Besides, your lesser job might lead to more, especially when your new employer sees what you have to offer.

Wendi Warner and her first Durian
Let me tell you a story...
When they brought him to me, he smelled like a rotten corpse. I took him to the garage and left him there all night. No food or water. When I checked on him in the morning, he was right where I had left him - and still he had not spoken a word.
This guy was one rank and odiferous fruit ball - a really foul dude. Everyone thought he was rotten to the core, but I thought there was a chance I could get out of him what I had been waiting for...so I waited.
I left him alone in the dark garage all day - again, no food or water. He had been silent since he arrived, but I knew it was only a matter of time before he cracked.
I returned at nightfall, slowly making my way to the garage. The stench was overwhelming. I opened the door and took one long look at him. The time alone had begun to wear on him. He was starting to crack.
It was the opportunity I had been waiting for. The moment was ripe, so I grabbed my butcher knife and approached him with anxious caution.
Should I do this? Am I ready? My mind raced as I forced myself to go through with the moment. Soon, the madness of the past couple days would culminate in my inevitable (not inedible) reward.
I thrust in my knife, slicing him from stem to stern. An almost sweet fragrance filled the air, and I lost no time pulling apart his rough skin and exposing his soft, inner flesh.
There. I had done it. He laid there, splayed and filetted for the whole world to see - if the whole world had been there in my garage.
Laying before me was a pale bile colored, kidney shaped, opaque gelatinous glob. His sweet guts. I lifted the glob to my mouth and sank my teeth into the moist and meaty mass...
...And you know what? I really liked it! I think I would pair it with a Rousanne or a Dry Riesling. I may have to make a habit of this! :-) The End.
