will be a one stop shop for all your pets solutions. These brands will be found
exclusively through our outlet. We will also have a virtual shop as well.

The colour scheme of the logo will be later applied on the shopfront,
website, stationery, kiosks etc. thus the colour scheme is very
important and needs to work everywhere.
The colour and logo should reflect luxury, chic, sexy and cheekiness.
Unleahsed reflects our creative solutions for your pets. there is a touch of wildness and thinking out of the box.

Despite only having been released a month ago, Blackberry announced on its blog that it already updated its software to version 10.0.10.85. While it's really quite soon for a new version, it's a good sign on the company's part, which cites user feedback as its jumping off point for implementing the changes, five of which it pointed out on its blog as being the most significant.
One of the biggest features that really helped push Blackberry down the totem pole was its poor app store. With the introduction of Blackberry 10, there was a vast improvement. Now, the company says that it has improved the performance, which should make app development by third parties much easier to create.
It also made fixes to the Gmail calendar, though the blog didn't specify what fixes were made. Another moderately vague improvement is to the Blackberry Hub: The company assures there are improvements for logging calls, the way conversations are handled, and importing contacts from online sources.
Low light photography has been a consistent problem with just about every single phone. With the new release, Blackberry says that photo quality in these situations will improve, particularly when a flash isn't being used, as in the Time Shift Camera feature the phones have.
The company realized that video quality within the devices' browser was lacking, so it patched things up to "provide a fantastic experience." We're not sure exactly what that means, but we assume it means videos will play a lot more smoothly, without the need to rebuffer.
Finally, battery life should improve once this new version is rolled out. The Blackberry software team has been working to improve it in as many ways as possible, and some 60 fixes will be implemented, each intended to increase the time in between charges.
Though you may not have seen an update notice on your device, it's in the works. The company said it's in close contact with mobile carriers to help roll them out as quickly as is possible. If you want to manually check to see if it's available, just pull up the Software Updates option in your phone's settings. Blackberry suggests connecting to a Wi-Fi network before downloading, since the update is 150MB.
Have you received the update to your Blackberry? Let us know if you notice the intended improvements in the comments below.

MEDWAY, MA -- Cybex Chairman and CEO John Aglialoro sent a letter to shareholders on Dec. 13 vowing to fight a jury verdict in which Cybex was ordered to pay 75 percent of a $66 million award. In the letter, Aglialoro denies that the company is culpable in the 2004 accident in which a 25-year-old leg extension machine made by Cybex fell on a woman, Natalie Barnhard, causing her to become a quadriplegic.
Algialoro wrote: "It is difficult to express the sense of injustice that management and employees of our company feel about the unfairness of this award and the strength of our belief that this accident was not the fault of our equipment. The trial is one more example of a tort system run amok and why more and more U.S. manufacturers find it difficult to operate in the U.S. Cybex makes products exclusively in the USA and has close to 600 American employees. We intend to exercise all legal remedies to get the verdict overturned."
James H. Moss, an attorney specializing in recreation law and editor of Outdoor Recreation & Fitness Law Review, agrees that the verdict amount is high.
"$66 million is excessive for a jury in this type of case," he says. "Normal range is $5 million to $15 million."
Aglialoro wrote in the letter that the machine weighed about 600 pounds, and, if used properly, it is physically impossible to tip over.
"The plaintiff clearly understood how to use a leg extension as she was an employee in the facility where the accident occurred," Aglialoro wrote. "This is not a design flaw—it is a terribly unfortunate result of the plaintiff's decision to use the leg extension in a manner which is still not clear and which had the disastrous result for which all of us feel great sympathy. The fact remains that this was not faulty equipment and not the responsibility of Cybex."
Aglialoro took issue with the high amount of the jury award. He also wrote that the trial was flawed from the beginning because the judge allowed the plaintiff to use as counsel a firm that had represented Cybex in the past and because the judge excluded testimony from the only eyewitness.
"We intend to continue to defend ourselves vigorously," Aglialoro wrote. "Looking forward, we have faith that our post-trial motions and appeals will result in a reduction or reversal of the verdict."
He concluded by writing, "It is important to me and the entire Cybex management team that the truth be told and that our shareholders know that their company is reputable and honest in its dealings and that our fitness products are the finest in the world—safe and effective. To Ms. Barnhard, we express great sympathy and admire her courage in dealing with the tragedy that resulted from her accident. But it was an accident—not a Cybex product that was at fault."
Moss says that if Cybex does not win its appeal, bankruptcy is a possibility for the company.
"No one has that amount of insurance," he says.

Ah-So Sorry!
March 18, 2009 - Dan Voigt
The current economic situation in the nation, albeit the globe, has certainly generated a lot of media coverage telling us of the unpleasantness. There haven't been a lot of "feel good" stories of late about the tough times, instead, there seem to be more and more incidents of complete disregard for what is "right" and "just," Perhaps the biggest example of this is the recent revelation that officials of AIG Insurance are awarding bonuses of $1 million to company executives, even in light of the fact that AIG has received $170 billion of federal money to keep the firm afloat. When I first heard the news stories on the radio, my first thought was unprintable. My rational side then responded, "How can that be?" There's a lot of people around the country who are asking the same thing. How can that be? In their defense, AIG uses the excuse that the raises are "contractually required". That sounds like high-priced, corporate legalese for "because we want to and we don't care what you think." Unfortunately, the average citizen like you and I can't do a blessed thing about this travesty except grumble and complain. But, out of this whole sordid mess, there was an interesting side development. On Monday, Iowa's U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley let AIG have it. In comments on WMT Radio in Cedar Rapids, Senator Grassley called on AIG's leaders to do the honorable thing – "to do like the Japanese would do, taking a deep bow, apologizing, and then committing suicide." Oh my! I can understand what the Senator was driving at, but I think he was a bit too animated in his thinking. Suggesting that someone commit suicide is not the best idea, and obviously, the Senator is now receiving criticism for his remarks. He has apologized and tried to clarify what he meant, but in my mind, I think he said something that a lot of folks have thought and perhaps more importantly, he may have gotten the attention of some of these high rollers and maybe has them thinking a little bit about their actions. We are bombarded by the reports that the giant banks are spending their federal bailout funds on trips for executives. The automakers are crying that they need billions or they will be out of business, and yet, chief executives have the gall to comment that the U.S. government isn't going to tell them how to run a company, because they know more than the government does. Add in AIG, and all I see is an attitude of "Oh, give me the taxpayer's money and the heck with them." Let's see, that kind of attitude reminds me of stories of the French Revolution, particularly something about those in power suggesting that the masses eat cake… So is there an answer to all of this? One would certainly hope so. Whether it will be an easy answer or quick, the odds aren't so good. But, past history of our country has shown that the people can face adversity and rebound into a stronger and more unified country. But, for that to happen, the business sector also has to be willing to sacrifice along with the general public. Excesses in business, industry and government that continue on, unchecked, will only foster distrust and reluctance to support those entities. Like any taxpayer, I don't mind so much when my taxes go for a worthwhile purpose, such as education or job creation, but when my hard-earned taxes go to buy some executive a $15 cigar for his enjoyment, that's another matter. – by Dan Voigt

Look for my new
It's Week 4, and the final week, of our Holiday Extravaganza. Did you somehow miss Week 1, 2 or 3 of this lollapalooza? Shame on you! Check out Reviews #25, 26 and 27. You'll be so glad ya did.
The Dr Dick Review Crew has been workin' overtime gettin you these reviews and now all our naughty parts are sore as all get out. Thank god this is the last week; we need a break, don't cha know!
This week's Review Crew include:
- Jack & Karen — Reviews #17, 18, 25, 27
- Joy & Dixie— Reviews #6, 12, 16, 17, 18, 23, 27
- Glenn & Hank — Reviews #4, 16, 17, 18, 23. 24, 27

- Ken & Denise — Reviews #11, 16, 25
- Jada — Reviews #14, 16, 20
First up Ken & Denise introduce us to a beautiful wooden insertable from Hans at Hardwood Dildos. I'm a big fan of Hans'. He is more than a craftsman; he's an artist. He really knows his wood and his woodies! We have just this one dildo to review, but his site is virtually overflowing with ingenious designs. When you visit, be sure to tell him Dr Dick sent you.
Apple Wood Dildo $99
Ken: "I was hoping I would be one of the lucky chosen ones to review one of the great wooden dildos we've featured during our Holiday Extravaganza. I lucked out! Denise and I have a real beauty."
Denise: "That is so true. Unfortunately, our Apple Wood Dildo doesn't come already named, like the ones reviewed earlier in this series."
Ken: "Well, it's only unfortunate if you're not clever enough to come up with name all on your own. I've christened ours Peter…for obvious reasons."
Denise: "I stand corrected. Maybe I need to be punished. 😉
Ken: "You'd like that, wouldn't you? Just you wait till we get home, young lady!"
Denise: "Ohhh, Daddy!"
Ken: "We seem to be veering off topic. Back to our beautiful Hardwood Dildo. It is made of Apple wood, a fine-grained, dense wood, which has a very fair color, kinda like maple or cherry. Apparently, the wood comes from trees pruned in Oregon."

Gina & Kevin introduce us to a couple of lovable toys for the big kid in all of us. These come from the good people at Big Teaze Toys. Dr Dick gives a bunch of extra points for the delightful names. You go Big Teaze!
I Rub My Duckie Bondage $25.99
Gina: "If a company can make me smile and make me cum at the same time, they win my heart. Now my heart belongs to Big Teaze. I Rub My Duckie Bondage is just one of the great Collector's Series duckies available from Big Teaze Toys. You have to see the other! Makes me giggle just visiting the site."
Kevin: "I got such a kick out of this. And speaking of kicks; this little bugger is mighty powerful."
Gina: "Bondage Duckie has a permanent place in our bathroom. It is always in reach. There is nothing better than a waterproof vibe. I love to get off in the tub."
Kevin: "It's a real conversation piece too. It even comes with its own set of Duckie-sized handcuffs. What a hoot! Guests always comment on our fashionable BDSM Duckie. Little do they know."

I Rub My Wormie Pink Travel Size $22.99
Kevin: "The I Rub My Wormie we have is the travel sized one. That makes is a bit smaller than the regular size. It make an excellent butt plug."
Gina: "Or Pussy plug! I Rub My Wormie has a, ergonomic bend in his neck to reach your G- or P-spot. It has an easy-grip body so he won't wiggle out of your hands."
Kevin: "Oh baby, Oh baby, you make me so hot!! Don't forget the 3-speeds of vibration."
Gina: "It actually is the perfect toy to travel with. Airport security will think you are carrying a baby's toy. If they only knew.

Now Jada gives us the finger, as it were. This is a clever first offering from a new Canadian company — Fun To Have.
Fun Finger $20.00
Jada: At first I thought this was some kind of gag. I mean Fun Finger looks like something you'd find on one of those prank websites. It's basically a big golden thumb. Fun Finger is soft and flexible. It has a multi-speed vibrator that is adjusted on the base of the finger. It's made in China of TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), which is non-toxic, but anyone allergic to latex will not be able use this. I'm not a big fan of Chinese made products, especially nowadays, but this one seems harmless enough.
I did like the unique shape — the cocked thumb. It's perfect for G-spot stimulation. I wouldn't, however, recommend it for prostate stimulation. There's nothing to hold on to at the base and it could easily slip in your bum and disappear. And that would very unpleasant indeed.

Our favorite perv Review Crew members — Joy & Dixie and Glenn & Hank tackle some very interesting devices from Rachel's Pleasures.
G–Spotter $16.20
G–Spotter $16.20
Dixie: "This is our second go around with these sorts of products. Joy and I, Glenn and Hank and others did a whole series on some of the products from Sportsheets. You can find those reviews by searching for the word 'Sportsheets'."
Joy: "Dixie and I prefer Rachel's product line to the other. For one thing, we found them more comfortable."
Dixie: "I hope this doesn't sound petty, but we also like Rachel's packaging better. It's more fun and it isn't so blatantly heterosexual."
Joy: "Basically, the G–Spotter is a device that one attaches to the bottom's ankles so the top can maneuver the bottom's legs with more ease. The bottom can hold the strap herself or the top can hold it and move it from side to side."
Read more of this review here
Cumfy Cuffs And Cumfy Cuffs Extensions Kit $22.50
Glenn & Hank introduce us to the Cumfy Cuffs And Cumfy Cuffs Extensions Kit .
Glenn: "Hank and I agree with Dixie. We also like Rachel's packaging better than the Sportsheets packaging. I guess it's a gay thing!"
Hank: "In fact, we liked everything about the Rachel's line better. We agree with the gals, it's a more comfortable setup"
Glenn: "Not that the bottom is supposed to be comfortable all the time. If ya catch my drift."
Hank: "Yeah, but Rachel's line of products, although practical and fully functional, is geared toward the bondage novice, wouldn't you agree?"
Glenn: "Absolutely! But we all have to start somewhere." 😉
Hank: "Do you know a budding kinkster? Maybe you're one yourself.
Glenn: "Maybe you'd just like to know the thrill of relinquishing control for an itsy bitsy moment or two."

Neoprene Harness $24.30
Joy & Dixie introduce us to the Neoprene Harness.
Joy: "Now this is something I can really sink my teeth into."
Dixie: "What she means to say is '…sink a nice big dildo into'."
Joy: "I loves me my strap-ons! I have quite a collection. Some are more comfortable than others, but I love 'em all."
Dixie: "I'm not as much of a connoisseur, as Joy, but this Neoprene Harness is very comfortable, I must say."
Joy: "It is that! It is also reversible and machine washable. I love that part. I hate having to clean lube and whatnot off my leather harness."
Dixie: "It's also fully adjustable. It would have to be to fit both Joy and I. We have such different body types."

Rachel's Bed Spread (w/cuffs) $64.53
Glenn & Hank introduce us to Rachel's Rachel's Bed Spread (w/cuffs).
Hank: "Now this is more like it! Rachel's Bed Spread allows you can create a little bondage magic without the screw anchors and bolts in the ceiling and walls needed for more traditional bondage apparatus."
Glenn: "I love being restrained spread eagle on the bed. I love relinquishing control to my partner(s) and being ravaged by him/them."
Hank: "And now we can play like this our own bedroom, or take it on vacation with us."
Glenn: "These two straps go around the mattress and allow us to attach wrist or ankle cuffs to the straps. The straps are adjustable fitting a twin up to a King Size bed
Hank: "Rachel's Bed Spread is not the least be threatening. In fact, if you just wanna mess around with some power-play this is just the thing for you."
Glenn: "But it also works for those of us who are a tad more hardcore."

I have become utterly bored with my New Year's resolution.
I have become utterly bored with my New Year's resolution.
It is, after all, just about the same resolution I have made since I was 14 years old and, I suspect, very similar to the resolution many, many women make each year. So here it is:
This year, for real, and I mean really real, I am going to lose weight.
Sure, over the decades there have been slight variations to the vow.
Sometimes I have specified actual poundage, which has varied from a minimum of 10 to a high of 30ish.
Sometimes instead of pounds I swap in a dress or jean or swimsuit size. There have even been years that I've targeted a specific garment, a dress that used to fit but no longer does, or one deliberately purchased a bit too snug and meant to provide inspiration.
Every few years I have actually achieved my goal of a perfect weight or size or measurement, most times I haven't, at least not during the year that I made the resolution.
I have though, met my goals if you disregard what we have come to consider the natural progression of time, you know, how, for example, how the year 1998 comes before 2003, which comes before 2008.
But if we fold time up in some sort of Dr. Who-ish kind of way, I have been somewhat successful. In fact, I've often been at my goal weight, just not in the same year that I set that goal. It's confusing, but it's true: Say, for example, I resolve to lose 15 pounds in 2013, which would put me at the same weight that I was in 2009. Of course, in 2009 I also resolved to lost a few pounds, trying, I suppose, to get back to my 2004 weight, or thereabouts. It could also very well mean that that right now, I have successfully reached my 2019 weight loss goal.
Yay me! (Honestly, if I had a Tardis this would all be make perfect sense.) What doesn't make sense is that I've seldom felt completely content with the body I was walking around in and I honestly can't think of a moment in my adulthood that I wasn't thinking about my weight, what I shouldn't have eaten, and how many miles I should walk or lunches I should skip to make up for the pizza/cookie/French fry I put in my mouth. It all started not long after Farrah Fawcett came out with that red bathing suit poster, and I don't think I've given myself a break since.
All that aside I will, undoubtedly, try to lose a few pounds. Or exercise more. Or eat healthier. All of which, of course, are just different ways of saying, "lose a few pounds." And if I fail to reach some magic number I resolve to be OK with that, and I'm going to try really hard not to let the scale decide how I feel about myself, whether I've been good or bad, or what kind of mood I'm going to be in for the rest of the day.
And this time I mean that for real. Really real.

Ne-Yo at the 51st GRAMMY Awards in February 2009
Photo: Lester Cohen/WireImage.com
GRAMMY Celebration To Cap Music's Biggest Night
(For a complete list of 52nd GRAMMY Award winners, please click here.)
DJ Mick Boogie, the Jon Batiste Band (featuring Eddie Barbash, Jonathan Batiste, Philip Kuehn, Matt Marantz, and Joe Saylor), soul singer and GRAMMY winner Sam Moore, R&B sensation and three-time GRAMMY winner Ne-Yo, and the GRAMMY Jazz Ensembles will perform at the 2010 GRAMMY Celebration, an exclusive invitation-only event.
This year's star-studded soiree will take guests on a festive journey through a modern twist on a circus theme and will be catered by chef extraordinaire Wolfgang Puck and produced by Along Came Mary Productions. One of the year's most anticipated events attracting GRAMMY winners, nominees and celebrities, the 2010 GRAMMY Celebration will take place at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Jan. 31 immediately following the 52nd Annual GRAMMY Awards.
"The GRAMMY Awards are an international extravaganza that celebrates the past year in music, but the festivities don't end there," said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy. "With exquisite cuisine and incredible performances, the after-party will be a memorable and extraordinary way to commemorate the success of Music's Biggest Night."
"As the only official GRAMMY Awards after-party, we pride ourselves in making the GRAMMY Celebration the year's most unforgettable event through our innovative design and amazing musical performances," said Branden Chapman, Vice President of Production and Process Management for The Recording Academy. "We are extremely fortunate and excited to collaborate with such incredibly talented partners. It takes much skill, innovation and ability to produce a party of this magnitude and we are privileged to work with the best in the industry."
Wolfgang Puck has crafted a custom menu that will be enjoyed by the 5,000 guests expected to attend the celebration. The menu will include an All-American Bistro (herb crusted rack of lamb with rosemary-mint jus, pan-roasted chicken with natural jus, garlic potato puree and shrimp louie with avocado panna cotta.); Asian flavors (garlic candy shrimp with jasmine rice, chinese chicken salad with crispy wontons and sesame honey dressing, sliced szechwan style rib eye and spicy string bean salad with cashews and tofu); tastes of New Orleans Jazz (cane syrup and bourbon glazed pork loin with creole mustard sauce, gumbo ya-ya with chicken, shrimp and andouille sausage, whipped yams with vanilla bourbon butter and spicy candied pecans and slow braised collared greens with tabasco fried onions), and an iced seafood station (chilled shrimp and crab claws, cocktail sauce and spicy mustard). Delicious sweets will include chocolate truffle cakes, caramel apple tarts, devil's food cupcakes with marshmallow frosting, caramel popcorn, baby lemon meringue tarts, and assorted colored cotton candy.
Once again The Recording Academy has partnered with Along Came Mary Productions, who will orchestrate the 2010 GRAMMY Celebration and oversee all of the event production and other logistics. The event will transport guests through a three-ring circus as it reinvents the vast Los Angeles Convention Center West Hall into a surreal experience. Acrobats, stilt-walkers and contortionists will be found throughout the space with featured acts performing in each of the main three rings. The lighting, performances and décor will evolve throughout the event with each hour highlighting a different concept of a guest's visit to a circus. A second event space within the party, Petree Hall, will double as a jazz lounge with a design that evokes images of a clown funhouse.

Marco Rubio Says Homosexuality Is A Sin, But Won't "Pass Judgment"
If you're gay, you're a sinner, says Marco Rubio, even though he claims he isn't passing judgment. Rubio spoke to Mike Allen of Politico.
ALLEN: Is homosexuality a sin?
RUBIO: Well, I can tell you what faith teaches and faith teaches that it is. And that's what the Bible teaches and that's what faith teaches. But it also teaches that there area bunch of other sins that are no less. For example, it teaches that lying is a sin. It teaches that disrespecting your parents is a sin. It teaches that stealing is a sin. It teaches that coveting your neighbor and what your neighbor has is a sin. So there isn't a person in this room that isn't guilty of sin. So, I don't go around pointing fingers in that regard. I'm responsible for my salvation and I'm responsible for my family's, and for inculcating in my family what our faith teaches, and they'll become adults and decide how they want to apply that in life. As a policy maker, I could just tell you that I'm informed by my faith. And my faith informs me in who I am as a person — but not as a way to pass judgment on people.Click here for reuse options!

The Marriage Index — A Revealing Look at the Nation
- Albert Mohler President, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
- 2009 4 Nov
Throughout most of the 20th century, economic policy has been informed by the "Leading Economic Index" calculated by The Conference Board. That index, designed to track economic trends and to warn of impending recession, utilizes ten components of data, ranging from the average weekly hours worked by manufacturing workers to the amount of new building permits for housing. Just about everyone -- including both government and the private sector -- utilizes the Leading Economic Index as an essential tool for evaluating the health of the economy and its future prospects.
Now, for the first time, The Marriage Index does for the health of marriage what the Leading Economic Index does for the health of the economy -- it provides essential data we ignore at our own peril.
The Marriage Index is a project of the Institute for American Values and the National Center on African American Marriages and Parenting. As their recently released report asks: "Why do we so carefully measure and widely publicize our leading economic indicators, and do everything we can to improve them, while rarely bothering to measure our leading marriage indicators, or try to do anything as a society to improve them?"
The availability of The Marriage Index as a means of assessing the health of marriage is a most welcome development. As Maggie Gallagher, president of the National Organization for Marriage, comments, "It's a brilliant conceptual idea, long overdue. This is a GDP for marriage, a way to statistically sum up complex trends in a way that allows us to capture a core truth: Is marriage getting weaker or stronger?"
The Marriage Index is based on solid data and includes five major components: the percentage of adults ages 20-54 who are married, the percentage of married persons who are "very happy" with their marriage, the percentage of first marriages that are intact, the percentage of births to married parents, and the percentage of children living with their own married parents.
The percentage of adults who are married is an obvious indicator of the health of marriage in society. The report considers this percentage among the population of adults who are most likely to be coupling and least likely to be widowed. This indicator is not encouraging. As the report reveals, "The trend in the last four decades suggests that many adults are less likely to find marriage an attractive choice. In 1970, 78.6 percent of adults age 20-54 were married. In 2008, it dropped to 57.2 percent."
"People still form relationships and still have children, but they are more likely to do so without marriage," the report summarizes. This trend is especially common among younger adults. These young adults have experienced a disillusionment about marriage due to the divorce rates of their own parents. They now "show a much more favorable attitude toward cohabitation than earlier generations."
The second indicator considers how many married persons report themselves to be "very happy" in their marriages. This measure of marital quality can be tracked through available data, and the trend is not positive. Though a clear majority of married Americans report their unions to be very happy, that figure has dropped from 67 percent to 62 percent in 40 years.
The marriage quality indicator is also important for children. As the report affirms, "when parents' marital relationship suffers, children also tend to suffer." The report also cites University of Texas sociologist Norval Glenn, who argues that the decline in marital happiness can be directly traced to the undermining of marital permanence by the availability of divorce.
The third indicator is the percentage of first marriages that are intact. In 1970, 77.4 percent of first marriages were intact, but only 61.2 percent were intact in 2007. There are signs that the percentage of intact first marriages may have actually increased in the last decade of this period, indicating that the divorce statistics are not inevitable. In other words, marital commitment can increase over time.
The percentage of births to married persons is the fourth major indicator. There has been a stunning increase in the percentage of children born to single parents or cohabiting couples. Today, only 60.3 percent of all babies are born to married couples, compared to 89.3 percent in 1970. Few statistics in social science reveal such a massive shift in the way human beings act and organize their lives. Marriage is the unique context in which children are most likely to flourish. Just one fact to keep in mind: Half of all children born to cohabiting couples see those unions end by age five.
The fifth indicator is the percentage of children living with their own married parents. "Marriage not only ensures that children are born into a stable family," the report argues, "it also intends that children are raised with their own biological or adoptive mother and father." The report cites family scholar David Popenoe, who stated, "Few propositions have more empirical support in the social sciences than this one: Compared to all other family forms, families headed by married, biological parents are best for children."
In contrast, children from divorced or single-parent families are more likely to drop out of school, to be unemployed, and to become teen mothers. Interestingly, recent research indicates that children raised in stepfamilies "look more like children of single parents than children being raised by their own married parents." In 1970, 68.7 percent of all children lived with their own mother and father. In 2007, that percentage had dropped to 61.0.
Taken as a composite, these leading marriage indicators reveal a score of 60.3 percent in 2008 -- a devastating drop from 76.2 percent in 1970. Clearly, the nation's marital health is in a free fall. This raises a frightening question: How low can these indicators fall and the society continue to survive?
The index of Leading Economic Indicators is understood to be a vital measure of America's health and future prospects. If anything, The Marriage Index should be understood to be even more important to the health and welfare of our society. How low can these indicators go and the nation survive? Let's pray we do not learn that answer the hard way.

On October 29 I discussed this issue on The Albert Mohler Program with special guest Maggie Gallagher of the National Organization for Marriage.

Brian Kelly waited until the end of the presidential election to start campaigning for a spot in the BCS title game.
The Notre Dame coach made his case on Sunday for a Top 2 spot in the polls that would allow the Fighting Irish (10-0) to play for a national championship. Oregon and Kansas State may be getting a lot of attention with their high-powered offenses, but Kelly said Notre Dame's defense is every bit as impressive.
``Each team has their own distinctions. The distinction of this football team is it's the No.1 scoring defense in the country,'' he said on a conference call with reporters a day after a 21-6 victory over Boston College helped the Irish move up to No. 3 in The Associated Press Top 25.
``It's proven that against very, very good teams all year. ... If you look at national championship-caliber football, you've got to look at a defense, and so that's why we feel strongly that our football team has put themselves in the discussion. We'll let others decide, but I think we've played our way into the discussion.''
Notre Dame had been the consensus No. 4 team in the country heading into the weekend, with only a remote chance at a national championship until top-ranked Alabama was upset by No. 15 Texas A&M on Saturday. The Irish moved up to No. 3 in the poll released Sunday, still behind new No. 1 Oregon and second-ranked Kansas State.
The Irish were expected to be third when the new BCS standings were released later Sunday.
Alabama dropped to fourth in the AP poll.
Although Kelly had resisted politicking for a better ranking, his new poll position proved too tempting. He said he voted for his own team No. 1 in the USA Today coaches' poll, up from No. 2 last week; it was the only first-place vote for the Irish, who were third in that poll as well.
Kelly's case is that the Irish have allowed 111 points in 10 games, tied with Alabama for fewest in the nation. He also pointed out that Notre Dame has played every game against an FBS foe; Oregon played Tennessee Tech, and Kansas State played Missouri State - both FCS division teams.
Notre Dame has beaten four teams that were ranked at the time the Irish played them: Michigan State and Oklahoma on the road and Michigan and Stanford at home.
The case against Notre Dame is that five of its wins have been by seven points or fewer, including a triple-overtime victory over unheralded Pittsburgh two weeks ago after the Panthers missed a 33-yard field goal to win it. Even the win over Boston College was uninspired: The Eagles are 2-8 and off to their worst start since 1989.
But Kelly noted that BC, the only other Catholic school in the FBS, failed to score a touchdown for the first time this season. Eagles quarterback Chase Rettig is among the national leaders with 2,803 yards passing and 16 touchdowns, but Notre Dame allowed just two field goals in the game.
``If you want style points, look at our defense, look at the schedule that we played: 10 FBS teams,'' Kelly said. ``I think it's pretty clear that this football team has been built around its defense, and we're lived up to that each and every week. We'll just keep working on one at a time and let other people figure out where that puts us.''
Kelly said two players came out of the Boston College game with injuries.
Receiver DeVaris Daniels had surgery on Sunday to repair a broken collarbone and will be out for three or four weeks. He will miss the rest of the regular season but would return for a bowl game, Kelly said.
Defensive back KeiVarae Russell had a head injury.
``It cleared up nicely,'' Kelly said. ``He looks to be on track for practice on Tuesday.''

Advocacy article: "We need to follow the rules of the road"
Posted: Wed Jan 30, 2013 1:24 pm
Came across a well-written article on the importance of cyclists being seen to be model citizens when out on a bike: link here. It's from the US, but is applicable in large parts to a local context.
But others know the laws and instead offer elaborate rationalizations for their behavior. These are frequently variations upon the theme, "I'm actually being safer/smarter/helping traffic flow better." It's that smug 'actually' that galls, because buried therein is a root of bicyclists' image problem: the perception that we think we know better. We reinforce it by reinterpreting laws to make our behavior appear safe or noble.
Well, sorry, that's not how civilization works. And it contributes to a stressful street climate of vindictive, they-started-it behavior that gets people hurt.

Opinion: Mitt's Apology
Democratic pollster Doug Schoen on Mitt Romney's apologizing for his 47% remark and how much of an impact Wednesday's debate will have on the race.
This transcript has been automatically generated and may not be 100% accurate.
... welcome to Opinion Journal Live on Dan Henninger well obviously the week's big event was the presidential debate ... and pollster Doug Schoen on I will discuss that very shortly ... but as the week ended we had a rather unusual that Mitt Romney won on Sean Hannity show and I'm not sure whether the word would be ... apologized for its forty seven percent remark ... but he certainly took it back what so it was untrue ... that clearly and in a campaign with hundreds if not thousands of speeches in question answer sessions ... it depicted on the duty to say something that the doesn't come out right ... in this case as to find this is completely wrong ... alright ... welcome ... back ... well he went on to say that obviously he believes that it has always been dedicated to the one hundred percent in his campaign is dedicated to the one percent do you think what he did ... on the hand's program was a good idea to base came a little way I think you shouldn't have spread from the start says it's perfectly clear what he meant to say ... that it's perfectly clear the way it came out that I think to take it off the table what is at a moment of relative strength ... is a good political judge ... do you think this will take it off the table because so many of ... Obama as critics from the left were screaming Apple debate to be sure that that ... Romney with forty seven percent ... but this way ... you think Joe Biden will bring it often buys from our journey will bring about ... but I think it's cool to see is reduced ... when Romney does what most of us do every day Dad which is a LO I made a mistake to and please to ... see me for what I am right ... there on a toy dog I firstly think he could of gone off and took this thing ... and said my critics point they should've just as the forty seven percent ... in the more I think about it all bench I can get some other boats by talk about get nice people jobs with dignity one of them have ... jobs already are doing quite well down a lot of them are voting for the Romney so ... in a certain sense anybody was doing ... was just right to take an issue of the table ... that for a lot of swing voters could be problematic Dell ... sorry about the debate aam how big a game changer do you think this was quite significant is the ... entire narrative of the campaign ... is change from Obama is inevitability ... to the fact that we're back in a dead global rights I don't think for a second that the races decided I think ... Obama truth be told still has ... an ever so slight advantage but I think it's important to recognize ... that the game in the polls which was already are seeing in the swing states ... he is ... frankly less important ... than the fact that the elite media narrative has been altered the right there's a will to fundamentally ... Nestle the warmup doubt that there is the conventional wisdom is that ... he likes to be decided electoral college vote in those swing states ... but you think that's a little less important than at this point where the narrative is going to because the narrative drives the swing states people go for a vote for president of Virginia where Ohio they vote for president of the United States ... and the point that Romney was masking today or perhaps making love to play which is hundred percent is Obama split class politics of this week ... rescue I've talked about ... the fact that Romney has said we're one nation one people which as you were broke so compelling with a couple weeks ago ... require a national purpose is a huge opportunity he wants to be dismissed ... some like the biggest foreign policy speech on Monday ... with a foreign policy debate but I think that Governor Romney by changing the dialogue ... with Italy's media was ready to dismiss him and dismiss them completely ... as change the race more than a couple points in the polls on a day-to-day basis ... the dark wordy you think Barack Obama goes now I mean he came under ... most remarkably withering attack from his side from allow police things that is suppose Lee didn't say including the forty seven percent and why not bring up the war on women ... how deep you think the resin warriors for Brock Obama well I think the reservoir is deep enough that he's got forty seven forty eight ... forty nine percent ... the fifty percent of the bow of the vote yes I'm I'm I'm sorry but I think the ... answer to your first question is partially naked ... put another way I think is going to be scathing in his attack saving his people believe ... that the more negative he is the more support he garners I expected that our whole ... he is going to ... sch more sharply polarized mythic of the campaign ... trail you to see ... Arch heart attacks in other words Mitt Romney can expect them ... the kitchen sink thrown out of ... maybe more and then added a lot more to do now all right thanks a lot of them thank you guys could be with us ...

Hey Slim,
You are right in that regard, should have read though more carefully while typing in the heat of the moment. So I do owe both SQ and Gumball an apology for sure.
The point we all want to make at least those of us who defend the other brands so fiercely, is that we rather see everyone play by the book and let great products speak for themselves.
The Waroo is a fine kite, and sold well, from what I hear better than SS and Naish.
Now they have the Pro edition, so why knock Slingshot in this post?? I see no need for it and neither do many other users on this forum. I hope that they see how devisive they make everyone, if that is marketing then well I think it sucks!!

Death penalty wanted for Bales in Afghan massacre case
JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, Washington – U.S. Army prosecutors on Tuesday requested a death penalty court-martial for a soldier accused of killing 16 Afghan villagers in a predawn rampage, saying that Staff Sgt. Robert Bales committed "heinous and despicable crimes."
Prosecutors asked an investigative officer to make the recommendation after the end of a hearing that included remote testimony from witnesses in Afghanistan, including a 7-year-old girl who described hiding behind her father as he was shot dead.
Bales, 39, is accused of slipped away from his remote base to attack two villages early on March 11. Among the dead were nine children. He faces 16 counts of premeditated murder and six counts of attempted murder.
The killings drew such angry protests that the U.S. temporarily halted combat operations in Afghanistan, and it was three weeks before American investigators could reach the crime scenes.
"Terrible, terrible things happened," said the prosecutor, Maj. Rob Stelle.
Several soldiers testified that Bales returned to the base alone just before dawn, covered in blood, and that he made incriminating statements such as, "I thought I was doing the right thing."
An attorney for Bales argued there's not enough information to move forward with the court-martial. Emma Scanlan said that Bales' state of mind on the evening of the killings was still unknown.
The investigating officer said Tuesday that he would have a written recommendation by the end of the week. The ultimate decision would be made by the three-star general on the base, Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington state.
None of the Afghan witnesses were able to identify Bales as the shooter, but other evidence, including tests of the blood on his clothes, implicated him, according to testimony from a DNA expert.
The lead prosecutor has said that on the night of the killings Bales watched a movie about a former CIA agent on a revenge killing spree, while drinking contraband whiskey. The lead prosecutor said Bales first attacked one village, returned to his base, then headed out again to attack a second village before returning to his base covered in blood.
Scanlan raised the issue of post-traumatic stress disorder and brain injury, noting that Bales had received a screening at the traumatic brain injury clinic at an Army medical center during a period of time that the center is under investigation for reversing hundreds of PTSD diagnoses.
When asked if Bales had ever been diagnosed with PTSD, Scanlan said, "I'm not going to answer that right now."
Bales' wife, Kari, and her sister, Stephanie Tandberg, met with reporters briefly after the hearing concluded. Tandberg read a statement, saying "we all grieve deeply for the Afghani families who lost their loved ones on March 11, but we must all not rush to judgment."

Linux is struggling on the desktop because it only has a small number of "great" apps, according to the Gnome co-creator. Miguel de Icaza, co-creator of the Gnome desktop, told tech journalist Tim Anderson at the recent Windows 8 Build conference "When you count how many great desktop apps there are on Linux, you can probably name 10," de Icaza said, according to a post on Anderson's IT Writing blog. "You work really hard, you can probably name 20. We've managed to p*** off developers every step of the way, breaking APIs all the time."

City of birth: Rochester, New York
County of birth: Monroe County
How voters can contact you: Telephone: 252-726-7643; email: firstname.lastname@example.com

Extensive leadership experience as Chairman and Vice-Chairman of many domestic and international committee structures; lead U.S. Representative in many sensitive international negotiations in the energy, environment, security, and trade and investment areas.
How long have you lived in the municipality for which you seek office? Eight years.
Why are you running for office? I really like Pine Knoll Shores and I want to work to make our town an even better place than it already is. In addition, to tell you the truth, I really like being involved in public policy issues. In some ways, I think I flunked retirement. I�m happier when I�m involved.
What makes you a good candidate for the position? I�ve been involved for many years with several of the town�s committees and I am very aware of the challenges we face going forward. I feel that I can bring some fresh perspectives, extensive public policy experience, and much-needed analytical skills to the short and long-term challenges facing our town.
What do you see as the town�s biggest budget challenge? As a small town, Pine Knoll Shores, along with the other towns on Bogue Banks, is somewhat at the mercy of state and federal agencies that can impose their will in the form of regulations on the town with little or no regard for the costs and benefits for our residents. We are also vulnerable to shrinking federal, state and county budgets for beach and other infrastructure maintenance projects.
What type of growth do you think is best suited for the town? Pine Knoll Shores is predominately a residential town that prides itself on its environmental sensitivities, and most of our citizens want to keep it that way. Nevertheless, as the existing housing stock gets redeveloped over time, there may be ways to improve the choices and services available to our aging population to facilitate their desire to �age in place�.
What quality-of-life projects would you suggest for the town? Greater connectivity and ease of passage between the neighborhoods in Pine Knoll Shores is something that many people would like to see. In addition, improving the safety of pedestrian traffic along Highway 58, especially in the summer months, is a project that will benefit all residents.

Just when they needed him most, Jeremy Hefner pitched a lights-out game for the Mets with eight shutout innings, but was betrayed by another ninth-inning collapse in a 2-1 loss to the Miami Marlins, which extended their losing streak to six games. Pinch-hitter Chris Coghlan led off the ninth with a single, took second on a passed ball by catcher Anthony Recker, advanced to third on umpire Tim McClelland's blown call and scored on Donovan Solano's single. The Marlins scored the game-winner on Brandon Lyon's run-producing wild pitch, a ball Recker should have blocked.
ON THE MOUND: Hefner encored his strong start last Thursday (one run in seven innings against the Dodgers) by going eight scoreless innings, giving up four hits and no walks with eight strikeouts. Hefner told reporters after the game on dealing with the disappointment: "I go back to what the definition of a starting pitcher is which is go nine innings and give the team a chance to win the game. … I wish I could have finished.''… Lyon assumed the closer role after Bobby Parnell pitched two innings the previous night.
AT THE PLATE: Daniel Murphy broke a 1-for-20 slide with a leadoff double in the fifth off Marlins starter Kevin Slowey, took third on a fly ball and scored on Recker's sacrifice fly. … Murphy was dropped to fifth in the order. … Five Mets in the batting order are hitting .250 or below. … The Mets have scored four or fewer runs in eight of their last nine games.
WRIGHT PLAYS: Wright did not start Monday because of a stiff neck, but appeared as a pinch-hitter and struck out. Wright said he wasn't sure if he would play tonight, but a decision was made after batting practice. Wright was hitless in four at-bats and his average dropped to .294.
BLOWN UMP CALL OF THE GAME: It seems as if every game has one, and tonight's came at a most inopportune time for the Mets. Replays showed third base umpire McClelland missed Wright's tag when Coghlan over slid third base on Juan Pierre's bunt attempt. Coghlan scored on Solano's single to right and defeat was merely pitches away.
WHEELER OUTSTANDING: Zack Wheeler produced his best start of the season for Triple-A Las Vegas, as he gave up one run on five hits in 6.2 innings. He struck out eight, but more importantly walked only one, and that was the last batter he faced. Two or three more starts like today and the Mets might be seeing Wheeler sooner than later.
METS MATTERS: Shaun Marcum, who volunteered to pitch in relief Monday, said he should be able to make Friday's start in Atlanta. Marcum didn't endear himself to the Mets' hierarchy by not reporting to spring training in top shape, but should have made some points last night. … John Buck, who caught 15 innings Monday, had the night off. He finished the month with nine homers and 25 RBI.
BY THE NUMBERS: The Mets started their 22nd different lineup in 25 games.
THEY SAID IT: "I'm pissed off. I'm extremely pissed off. … You have to get out here and act like a pro and play tomorrow.'' – Manager Terry Collins after tonight's late-inning collapse.
ON DECK: Dillon Gee (1-4. 5.96) goes against lefty Wade LeBlanc (0-4, 6.20), tomorrow at 12:40 p.m. … The Mets are off Thursday, and start a three-game series in Atlanta, Friday. Marcum, Jon Niese and Matt Harvey are scheduled to start for the Mets.

SEMI Announces Finalists for the SEMICON West 2009 Sustainable Technologies Award
SAN JOSE, Calif. – June 23, 2009 – SEMI today announced finalists for the SEMICON West 2009 Sustainable Technologies Award. The award, which is debuting this year, recognizes SEMICON West 2009 exhibitors who have developed and introduced equipment, materials or services into the marketplace that contribute to sustainable improvement of the environment.
The Sustainable Technologies Award was open to any SEMICON West 2009 exhibitor, and entries could be for equipment, materials or services introduced into the market within the last three years. Entrants were required to demonstrate how their equipment, material or service is a sustainable technology by fully addressing award criteria.
Four finalists have been selected for final consideration. Final judging will be done by a panel of EHS experts after the conclusion of SEMICON West, and the winner will be announced in August.
The four finalists are:
- Confluense, LLC, for their sustainable technology: "CMP Pad Surface Manager". The CMP Pad Surface Manager reduces CMP consumables usage through in-situ monitoring and cleaning of the pad surface. This results in a 50% reduction of CMP ultra pure water and 50% reduction of CMP solids. It also facilitates separation of waste streams by slurry concentration to reduce slurry waste treatment and DI water recycling costs.
- Semitool, Inc., for their sustainable technology: "AOM Replacement of Sulfuric-Based Wet Cleans". This technology is a post ash clean process which uses ultra dilute ammonia liquid in conjunction with ozone gas. It replaces sulfuric-peroxide and ammonia-peroxide clean steps which reduces sulfate containing waste water emissions. The reduction of sulfuric acid use in a typical fab could potentially be thousands of gallons per year, and the reduction of deionized water use could potentially be millions of gallons per year.
- DISCO Corporation, for their sustainable technology: "DWR1720". The DWR1720 is a water recycling unit that recirculates and filters water from dicing saws with the additional capability to generate deionized water. This technology reduces the 1-3 gallons per minute of waste water typically sent to the drain from a dicing saw by 99.8%. Additionally, a specially designed filter traps cutting debris for potential reclaim of GaAs, lead, copper, zinc and other materials. Finally, power consumption is reduced versus other deionized water recycling units with water temperature control units (2.5kW versus 6.8kW).
- Applied Materials, Inc., for their sustainable technology: "Opus High Productivity Metal Etch System". The Opus High Productivity Metal Etch System is a new metal etch system based on established etch chambers and a modification to an existing Centura platform. The platform architecture balances the output of the process chambers leading to a throughput increase of 50% with a corresponding increase in energy consumption of only 28%. The result is a decrease in energy use per wafer pass which results in an annual energy savings of approximately 121.4MWh (per SEMI S23), or a 13.5% energy savings. In addition, the Opus High Productivity Metal Etch System reduces the amount of water consumed for cooling.
Representatives from each of the four finalist companies will be recognized at the EHS Global Care Initiative executive luncheon at SEMICON West 2009, and will be presented with a plaque to commemorate their achievement.

Several months back I heard the song "Blessings" by Laura Story played on your radio station. I instantly fell in love with the song and in turn gave praise to God for your station.
Back in January, I was in Canada visiting some friends and I felt led to play that song for my friend Jill who was suffering from stage-4 breast cancer. She had just lost her children in an awful legal battle with her ex-husband and now was told she only had months to live. She was so thankful for the song. She kept saying: "Oh my goodness, this is my song! This is really my song!" It gave us both a good cry as we listened, held each other and prayed together. She told me on several occasions when she was at a low point in her fight, she would play the song over and over again. It gave her hope and comfort. She even started listening to your station online!
Jill lost lost her battle on June 14th and was laid to rest shortly afterwards, but thanks to WCIC, we both had hope and comfort of where she was going. Jill didn't have access to a Christian radio station where she lived and had I not heard the song on your station locally, she wouldn't have received the comfort she did during her final days.
I just heard "Blessings" played again tonight, and after drying the tears, all I can say is "thank you" WCIC for all you do and for blessing the lives of others ---- even in foreign countries! May Yeshua (Jesus) bless you greatly!

Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker are well-known for being hands-on, but parenting twins comes with its own set of challenges.
The actor says daughters Loretta and Tabitha, 2½, didn't make him a better multi-tasker, but they did teach him to resist catering to every whim.
"I'm now used to being unable to give everything the attention it deserves all the time," Broderick, 49, told PEOPLE after a cabaret show at New York's Café Carlyle.
"You have to be cool like that sometimes — somebody will be screaming about something and you can't immediately give it to them. But they get used to it, so it's sort of nice in a way."
The actor, who recently paid homage to his famed Ferris Bueller role in a Superbowl ad, admits that his girls couldn't be more different.
"I know enough that the personality switches. One at the moment is more Type A," he says, then reconsiders. "They're both kind of Type A. They're two. They just run everything, you know."
Most importantly, they get along like, well, sisters. "They are really very attached to each other. They're really cute," he adds.
Broderick — who's also dad to son James Wilkie, 9 — did master the art of feeding both babies at once as newborns, but notes that they're more independent now.
"It's kind of sad with twins; they learn to, like, lie on the pillow because you can't always hold them both. They're more self-sufficient. They learn to take care of themselves," he explains.

Kansas legislators are preparing for final votes on a sweeping anti-abortion bill that could send it to Gov. Sam Brownback.
The Senate planned to vote first Thursday. The bill blocks tax breaks for abortion providers and outlaws abortions performed solely because of the baby's gender.
If the Senate approves the measure as expected, the House will vote on it, possibly as early as Thursday night.
The bill also prohibits abortion providers from being involved in public school sex education classes and spells out in more detail what information doctors must provide to patients before performing abortions.
The measure declares that life begins "at fertilization." Abortion opponents see the language as a statement of principle and not a ban on the procedure, though the bill's critics are skeptical.

New York State Assembly Grants Adoption Rights to Unmarried Couples
Assemblymember Michael DenDekker (D-Jackson Heights) has announced that the New York State Assembly has passed Assembly Bill 5652-B, which permits adult, unmarried couples to adopt a child.
"There are so many children in New York State who are waiting to be placed with a loving family," Assemblymember DenDekker said. "And there are so many couples who are ready, willing, and able to open their homes – and their hearts – to these children. But for too long now, New York State law was too vague and placed so many unnecessary restrictions on adoption agencies that potentially wonderful placement opportunities were overlooked."
Under present New York State law, an unmarried single person or a husband and wife together are permitted to adopt a child. In addition, the partner of a child's biological parent who's raising the child with the child's biological. However, there's confusion about whether the law permits a joint adoption by an unmarried adult couple."
A.5652-B clarifies this legal language, and ensures that unmarried adult couples may jointly adopt a child when neither is the biological parent of the child. Allowing unmarried adult couples to adopt ensures that the child will receive a range of benefits, including Social Security and life insurance benefits, health coverage under both parents' health insurance, and the right to continue relationships with both parents in the event of separation. Moreover, the legislation removes all references to "husband" and "wife" in favor of the more gender-neutral term, "married couple". This ensures that all married couples are given equal rights to adopt, regardless of sexual orientation.
"With more and more couples opting not to marry these days, this common sense legislation will greatly expand future adoption prospects for both children and families," Assemblymember DenDekker concluded. "Once again, the actions of the New York State Assembly have made it possible for New Yorkers to love and care for the children of New York State."

Don't stop the music
I teach music at an elementary school. Every year, we are told that the School Board is going to cut our programs first to save money. Every year, we keep advocating the importance of music education. The School Board members say they understand the importance of music education at the elementary level.
They say they support fine arts programs in Marion County. Yet, they have taken away music and art from our elementary students.
Board members and the superintendent come to events such as the All-County Honor Choir or Charlie Dixon Elementary Music Festival. They say what a good job our students do.
I wonder if they know that the program is not built in one day. Little by little we are teaching skills to our students. By teaching them the components of music they are able to put them together to perform beautiful music. Students not only learn the music skills, but they also learn how to work in a team and how to be creative. These are the kinds of skills they will need to have to work in the real world.
I hope that the board understands that cutting music at the elementary level is cutting music at middle and high schools as well. If the students are only receiving five hours of music instruction for the entire year, they will not be ready to go into band programs or chorus programs at the middle and high school levels. The foundations of music performance begin at the elementary level.
I am going to do my best to teach everything I am supposed to teach my students in half the time, at two schools, wherever they place me next year. It's just I am having difficulty understanding why elementary school students are the ones who always lose the most.

Lynch mob
People marching in the streets. People who are trying to do just one thing — influence the outcome of this trial. They do not know the facts. They have not heard all the evidence in the trial. They certainly were not present when the incident took place. They do not care what the facts are. They aren't interested in justice. They are just like a lynch mob. The only difference is they are trying to force the courts to do their lynching for them. And they are succeeding.
I feel sure the authorities fear the riots that might take place if the outcome of the trial isn't to their liking. Why else would they be beefing up security in Sanford?
Ask yourself this: If Trayvon Martin had been white, would this trial be getting the attention it is getting. I think not. We read in the paper and see on TV news of many murders taking place. Ho hum! It's hardly news anymore. It happens every day. Why aren't there marches and protests at those trials? All this is fueled by the news media, which is hungry for something spectacular to report.
I'm sure this letter is politically incorrect, but so much of the truth is anymore.

Instant hot water
Here's a project for children of today or tomorrow. When we first turn on the hot water spigot, cold water starts out and we have to wait for the water to get hot. This is a waste of millions of gallons of water each day around the world. If someone could come up with an idea for starting hot water when that spigot is first turned on, think of all those gallons saved each day. Of course, it would need to be a system that would not waste some other energy.

A healthy Fourth
Whatever happened to the good old days when the worst things we had to fear on the 4th of July were traffic jams and wayward fireworks?
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Meat and Poultry Hotline, this year's top threat is food poisoning by nasty E. coli and salmonella bugs lurking in hamburgers and hot dogs at millions of backyard barbecues. The hotline's advice is to grill them longer and hotter. Of course, they don't bother to mention that the high-temperature grilling that kills the bugs also forms lots of cancer-causing compounds.
Luckily, a bunch of enterprising U.S. food manufacturers and processors have met this challenge head-on by developing a great variety of healthful, delicious, and convenient, veggie burgers and soy dogs.
These delicious plant-based foods don't harbor nasty pathogens or cancer-causing compounds. They don't even carry cholesterol, saturated fats, drugs, or pesticides. And, they are waiting for us in the frozen food section of our supermarket.
This 4th of July offers a great opportunity to declare our independence from the meat industry and to share wholesome veggie burgers and soy dogs with our family and friends.

Bells of freedom
In 1963, John F. Kennedy asked the nation to "ring the bells of freedom" on Independence Day. The people responded and bells were rung all over the country to celebrate our independence.
Let's resurrect that proud tradition and ask our citizens to ring bells on July 4th at 2 p.m. I suggest that the Star-Banner make the request on the front page of the July 4th edition asking citizens, churches, fire stations, etc, to join in this independence celebration.

Childhood hunger is a global crisis. Yet contrary to popular belief, it's not relegated to third-world countries. As a matter of fact, more than 16 million kids in America live in households that struggle to put nutritious food on the table. As a point of reference, that's enough children to fill over 845 basketball arenas.
To put it in better perspective, that means that 1 in 5 kids struggles with a hungry belly and doesn't know when or where her next meal will be. This is an epidemic that is threatening America's future, as hunger has the ability to rob these wonderful children of ever reaching their full potential.
Being hungry is going to have a negative impact on a child's performance in school. What's more, that same undernourished child is more likely to get sick due to a lack of nutrients and a hampered immune system.
That same child is far less likely to graduate high school and move on to college, which will have far-reaching negative consequences on her financial future. As this vicious cycle rears its ugly head, this same individual will be much less likely to earn the income necessary to feed her own family.
This is absolutely gut-wrenching to us. As a company that is dedicated to being the premier source of all-natural products and health information, we refuse to sit back and not take action against this crisis.
The great news is that this epidemic can be solved, and the amazing folks at No Kid Hungry® are doing an honorable job of taking a stand against childhood hunger. Through a national campaign that emphasizes Access, Education, and Awareness, No Kid Hungry® has helped hundreds of thousands of kids by providing them millions of meals.
We believe so strongly in this initiative and this admirable organization that we've teamed up with them to reduce childhood hunger in America. As of December 2013, we are proud to announce that we have donated enough funds to provide over 240,000 meals to hungry children.
We consider this a privilege to be able to help squash this crisis, and we have you to thank for this opportunity. Without your avid support of our premium, all-natural brand of nutrition products, we would not be able to help these needy children. For this, we honor and thank you. It's because of great folks like you that we're able to give back and help make this world a better place… together!
With gratitude,
