Join The Conversation With Mishpacha's Weekly Newsletter
Among the frum community, the staggering numbers of unemployed householders have galvanized several parnassah initiatives. In a penetrating roundtable discussion, Mishpacha unites some of the leaders of these efforts. These men have dedicated their talents and time to helping their fellow Jews reclaim their livelihoods and their dignity. Their thought-provoking and incisive observations apply to all of us.
Are our children being rushed through crucial basic learning skills before being propelled into learning Chumash, Nach, and Talmud? Two passionate, groundbreaking educators believe a surprising number of children — and adults — are seeing Torah through a fog of confusion and illiteracy. Rabbi Dovid Abenson and his mentor, Rabbi Zvi Zobin, say it's never too late to acquire the language and learning skills never mastered in school.
Even before its official opening, Iranium, the most recent documentary on radical Islam produced by the Clarion Fund, was subject to official protests from the Iranian consulate in Toronto and mysterious threats. That may be only the beginning for a film certain to generate ongoing controversy.
Chassan and kallah are all decked out in their finery, the hall is clean, set up, and ready for a lively wedding — but outside, snow is swirling around, rendering travel nearly impossible. As the East Coast of the United States experiences one of its worst winters ever, what's happening with all those weddings scheduled months ago? A peek at some simchahs that had to contend with nature as one of the mechutanim.

I have always loved Peeps. Ask anyone that knows me well and they will tell you this. Sugar covered marshmallows, what could be bad! I admit that I used to buy a bunch of them at Easter and then save some in the freezer so I could enjoy them all year long.
Then a few years ago they introduced them at Christmas. And slowly I have been able to find my favorite candy more often then at just Easter.
This year I heard about Valentine's Day themed Peeps and I thought, finally a way to show someone you really love them. Yes, with Peeps.
This Valentine's Day you can enjoy these great flavors:
Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Crème Flavored Chicks
These are Strawberry Creme flavored marshmallows dipped in either milk or dark chocolate.
Chocolate Mousse Flavored Marshmallow Bears
I admit I am most looking forward to these. Chocolate mousse flavored marshmallows in adorable bear shapes.
Cherries Drizzled and Dipped in Chocolate
Marshmallow Hearts
Chocolate (milk or dark) Covered Raspberry Flavored Hearts
Strawberry Crème Flavored Marshmallow Hearts
Vanilla Crème Flavored Marshmallow Hearts
Sugar-Free Marshmallow Hearts
One of my favorite things about Peeps is that they are low in calories and gluten free, making them a great treat. Besides making a fun snack or special treat, I am looking forward to using them for some fun Valentine's Day baking. I think the bears would be adorable on cupcakes.

The Christian Academy of Myrtle Beach boys basketball team saw its season come to a close in the SCISA Class 2A state semifinals on Thursday, but the Saints didn't go down without a fight.
Trailing by double digits for most of the night, Christian Academy put together a fierce fourth-quarter comeback before falling 71-66 to Hilton Head Prep at the Sumter Civic Center.
The Saints scored more than half their point total in the fourth period, putting up 35 in the final frame to close the gap in the final minute. But the Dolphins dodged the scare to advance to Saturday's state final.
Leading the way for Christian Academy was the school's all-time leading scorer, Michael Green, who played the final game of his high school career. Green scored 40 points to finish with an all-time tally of 2,495.

King Neptunes Casino is powered by the excellent Viper software from Microgaming. Microgaming is one of the leading casino software developers and this casino is beautifully made with a great theme. The software is available in a no download flash version and a download version; this casino review is based on the download version of King Neptune Casinos software.
New players are welcomed with a very generous 100% bonus on top of their first deposit. You can get up to $200 free - so if you deposit $50, you can claim a nice $50 bonus and play with $100. Not bad at all.
I downloaded the King Neptunes Casino software - it was 7.96 MB of downloading. Then I opened a real play account and made a $100 deposit. If you want to try out the software for free, you can open a free Guest Account.
After having made my first deposit I returned to the casinos website and filled out the bonus claim form. My bonus of $100 was instantly added to my casino account - then I went back inside the casino ready to play at King Neptunes Casino with my $200.
King Neptunes Casino offers you the choice of 106 different casino games and new games are constantly added - so there is definitely something for everyone. I wanted to try some of the many slots they had on the menu. In fact, they have so many different slots that they have made a entire menu just for the slot games.
I started out trying the slot machine Crazy Chameleons - this is a slot with 5 paylines and 5 reels. The coin size is from $0.25 and up to $5. If you are betting on all five paylines you are betting from $1.25 and up to $25 per spin. Not winning or losing much, I moved on to try another slot machine.
Lucky Charmer is a fun slotmachine with a bonus feature that I had great success with. This slot has 3 reels and a single payline - the jackpot is 5000 coins and the coin size is fixed to $1. But you will have to bet $3 per spin to be able to activate the bonus feature. The King Cobra Symbol on the 3rd payline will activate the bonus feature round.
The Lucky Charmer slot has always been a favorite of mine - just look at the screenshots I have taken. On my 3rd spin I won $150. Five spins later I managed to get a King Cobra on the 3rd payline and the bonus round started. In the bonus round you will have to pick one out of three flutes. The man plays the flute of your choice and things starts popping up of the baskets - you will be paid according to whatever comes up from the baskets - for example Elvis pays $30, an Alien pays $60, and an arm from an octopus pays only $6. As you can see I won $95 in a single bonus round. Later I managed to win yet another bonus round - where I found out that a small balloon pays only $3 - but I was winning big on this fun slot machine.
Having won on that Lucky Charmer Slot, I wanted to try out another feature slot and I decided on the feature slot game Sizzling Scorpions. The bonus round in this game is activated when the Buzzard symbol lands on the payline. The Sizzling Scorpion slot machine has only one payline - 3 reels and the coin size is fixed to $0.50.
Only when you are betting 3 coins per game can you activate the bonus round, so this game takes $1.50 per spin. When the bonus round opens you will have to pick one out of three scorpions for a scorpion race. I actually managed to get the bonus game going five times and furthermore the scorpions I picked won 4 out of 5 races - every win paid $50 so my bankroll went up to $450 - but things would become even better with the next slot game I tried out.
Vinyl Countdown is a 9 payline slot with 5 reels and max. coins are 9 per spin. The coin size is $0.25 and up to $2 - so you will be betting from $2.25 and up to $18 per spin. I started out betting $2.25 per spin, and soon I got my fist winning combination that paid $22.75. Then I got 3 scatter symbols two times in a row each paying $22.75. Then I played a couple of spins more and got 4 scatter symbols - that combination paid $112.50 and my bankroll went up to $588. I played this slot for some time and kept winning, and then I suddenly got a combination that paid $151.50 so by bankroll went sky high to an amazing $715 on a $100 deposit.
Thunderstruck is one of my new favorite slots, it can be played at King Neptunes Casino and many other Microgaming casinos. It's a 9 payline slot with coin sizes from $0.01 and up to $1. Betting on all 9 paylines that adds up to a minimum bet of $0.45 per spin and up to $45 per spin for the serious high rollers.
I won on a couple of good spins on the Thunderstruck Slot machine, but nothing big - 3 scattered rams will win you 15 free spins where you will be paid tripled the standard payoff for all winning combinations during the 15 free spins. Thunderstruck is a great and very fun slotmachine in my opinion.
I also tried out the Cash Splash Progressive Slot - this is a single payline slot with a big progressive jackpot. It's $3 per spin if you want a chance of winning the jackpot. The Microgaming Viper software offers autoplay, so I tried that and made the software do all the clicking for me - I had preset the autoplay options to stop on big wins or if I lost money too fast. I got a few good wins on this progressive slot - but lost most of it back again trying to hit that jackpot
If you have read my review of Spin Palace Casino, you have perhaps noticed that I recently won $800 on a single spin on the progressive slot Major Millions - so of course I had to try that one out again - with the autoplay feature turned on.
I did get a couple of very good wins on Major Millions progressive slot, but I wanted that $300,000+ Jackpot! Of course I did not win the Jackpot, so that ended up costing me a major part of my previous winnings. However I still manage to cash out a nice profit - so I am still smiling :-).

This piece is still in work… Years ago the rock group Air Supply released a song called 'Making Love out of Nothing at All' . That fact, upon closer inspection has absolutely nothing to do with major fuel companies putting ethanol into our retail pumps. Corn should be eaten, not burned! But "Making torque out of corn ethanol" stuck in my head. So another one of my plagiarized poems has emerged… BTW, if you don't know, torque is rotational force ( like making my motorcycle's rear wheel spin ). Torque makes motorcycles fun!
The owners guide declares it clear-
While you ride both far and near;
Petroleum for freedom's call-
My torque explodes from drillers' awl.
Engineered for petrol flow,
Octane ninety three; must show-
A blend appears, is good for all!
My torque evolves; corn ethanol.
Particulates in winter's clog,
The 'EPA' declares "It's smog".
The cure it seems is green and tall-
My torque comes clean; corn ethanol.
Hungry is starvation's child,
Nutritious corn is sweet and mild-
V-twins win the money brawl!
My torque derives; corn ethanol.

Dinner with a Cause: Eat Well
Tuesdays @ 5:30pm-6:30pm at The Mauthe Center:
Hungry? Got some spare change? If you answered YES to one of these questions then do we have a treat for YOU!! Each Tuesday at 5:30 pm during the school year we offer a FREE meal. Plus, you get to partake in building a well in Africa. Do you believe that everyone deserves something as simple and important in life as clean, safe water? Unsafe water leads to diseases, poverty, and suffering. All donations collected will go toward building a well in Ethiopia. YOU can help make a BIG difference by donating! The dinner will always be free, but if you could consider from the kindness of your heart to donate whatever money you can, the children in Africa would be more than thankful. You could help save lives! Every little bit matters! Last year students donated enough money to build a well in Uganda, and this year our hope is to build a well in Ethiopia!
Come over and bring your friends. Every week.

The Kenton County Emergency Communications Center (KCECC) serves as the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for all communities in Kenton County, excluding the communities of Erlanger, Elsmere, and Crescent Springs. The service area of KCECC encompasses approximately 81% of the County's population base. As the PSAP for 15 different cities and the majority of the unincorporated areas of Kenton County, we bear the responsibility for dispatching the police and fire departments that service those communities. In total, we provide dispatching services to 13 fire departments, 12 law enforcement agencies, and one animal control agency. Dispatching services for the aforementioned 26 agencies requires a robust and reliable Land Mobile Radio System (LMRS). Unfortunately, the current LMRS in operation is deteriorating and in need of upgrading. KCECC is working in cooperation with its partner agencies/cities and the Kenton County Fiscal Court (KCFC) to improve this critical component of public safety.
In early 2015, the KCFC commissioned a needs analysis of the KCECC Radio System. This analysis was conducted by Trott Communications, a public safety radio systems consulting firm located in Irving, Texas. The thorough analysis of our LMRS conducted by Trott Communications resulted in two possible remedies for issues associated with the current system. Our options were to invest substantial funds into improving the coverage and reliability of the existing conventional analog UHF/VHF system or invest in the development of a P-25 digital trunked radio system to service the public safety agencies of Kenton County. After extensive analysis and discussion with all entities involved, a decision was made to pursue a P-25 trunked digital radio system for Kenton County.
The migration to a digital trunked radio system will be a lengthy one; we estimate the platform change will take place 2019. In the interim, KCECC will maintain the existing system and invest whatever funds are necessary to keep it operational for the safety of our first responders and citizens.

Withnail and Corum (Telegraph UK)
As I read Mr. Corum's post "The neo-Tsarist Russian empire is an increasing security problem for the West" in the Telegram, I thought about a British film I saw years ago, Withnail and I. The main character and his friend, Wtihnail, are two actors struggling to survive in 1969 London. The film was very funny and eventually became a cult hit. As I read the post, I found myself repeatedly thinking of Withnail's answer to a statement he found absurd and pretentious: "What absolute twaddle!"
Of course, there is an American expression that is roughly equal, but I think that Withnail's comment pretty well sums up what I think about Mr. Corum's column, except that I believe his points are much more dangerously askew than those of Withnail's friend.
I lost count of the number of times that Mr. Corum states conclusively that some future event "will" happen. Even the most seasoned analyst usually writes in less certain terms. There are too many variables to state with such certainty so many future outcomes.
He describes Russia outside of Moscow and Saint Petersburg as a "Third World" of poverty and misery. I live in Russia and outside of those two cities. While it is not Malibu or Park Avenue and there are many problems, it is not the place of Third World misery that he imagines. He also wonders why Russia has a belief in itself as a great power. How about the largest land mass in the world? 145 million people with a very important cultural, historical and intellectual legacy? The most natural resources of any nation?
In Mr. Corum's post, he says "Russia will adopt a more aggressive policy in the Caucasus in regards to Georgia and the two Russian-occupied breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia." Has Mr. Corum even been to either place? I have been to Abkhazia and know it well. Abkhazia is not an occupied nation. In 1992, Georgia attacked Abkhazia, Earlier, Georgian leaders made genocidal threats and spoke of the illegitimacy of the Abkhaz in their own land. After the Georgian Army was driven out, the Russians acted as peacekeepers in both South Ossetia and Abkhazia for 15 years. Russia actually enforced an economic blockade on Abkhazia until 1999 in deference to Georgia and the CIS. After years of Georgian threats and the unprovoked attack on South Ossetia (confirmed by an EU Commission report) by Georgia in 2008, Russia has recognized both nations and has given aid and military protection, including an army base in Abkhazia, to prevent further Georgian aggression and bloodshed. Abkhazia has a democratically elected government and sets its own course, just as many nations with protective American bases set their own course. But a double standard is applied to Russia.
Mr. Corum calls Belarus a "satellite state" of Russia, but gives no evidence. Belarus has a different political and economic system than Russia and pursues its own domestic and foreign policy. While there has been cooperation, the recent dairy product and natural gas rows show that Moscow does not call the shots. I am not endorsing the Communist Belarusian government, only pointing out what is obvious. Mr.Corum also states that Ukraine "will" become a "satellite" of Russia because of the recent Ukrainian election, but he ignores the centuries of shared historical, political, religious, linguistic and familial history of the two nations. I spend a lot of time in Russia and Ukraine and many in both nations have ancestors in the last 2-4 generations from the other. It is difficult for those unfamiliar to understand the special relationship between Russians and Ukrainians. While Ukraine may turn its orientation more towards Russia, sooner or later that was likely to happen. It does not necessitate that Ukraine will become a Russian satellite. But here, as in most of Mr. Corum's claims, there is an entirely different standard applied to Russia.
He sees ill intent on Russia's part in the customs union with Kazakhstan and Belarus. Should Russia not be free to do this, just as the US has joined NAFTA, the WTO and European countries have formed the EU? The Kazakh President believes that the 3 nations will enjoy a 15% increase in GDP by 2015 as a result of the customs union. But in this, Corum visualizes a neo-Soviet state arising.
The same holds true for Russia's naval base in Ukraine. Despite the ties between Russia and Ukraine and the long Russian presence in Crimea, Mr. Corum sees this as evidence of Russia dominating Ukraine. America has bases in a lot of countries and I don't recall anyone describing Japan or the U.K. as satellites. In reference to Ukraine, he even calls it " the Ukraine", the common usage of which ended shortly after the Soviet Union dissolved and the Cold War ended. But then Mr. Corum's mindset is firmly grounded in a Cold War mentality.
In Mr. Corum's view, all about Russia is a zero-sum, Cold War, neo-Tsarist scenario. He talks about the usage of a centuries old Russian symbol, the two-headed eagle as evidence. However, he ignores what any serious discussion about Russia should not: the invasions and catastrophic, unparalleled losses that inform Russian views. For 50 years or so American foreign policy was dominated by realpolitik. American policy-makers, left and right, thought about how their actions would be viewed and the resulting reactions. However, the neo conservative ideologues who dominated the Bush Administration pursued policies that have severely damaged America's economy, her prestige and resulted in much higher tensions with Russia.
Russia's leadership and its population have concerns about encirclement and attack. For this reason, the American bases in the former Soviet satellites of Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania and Hungary,those nations acceding to NATO and the proposed bases in Georgia and Central Asia (parts of the former Soviet Union) are a nightmare to the Russians (imagine if Arkansas, Mexico and Puerto Rico had joined the Warsaw Pact). At the same time, writers like Mr. Corum hypocritically condemn Russia for doing exactly what America is doing: seeking military bases in former Soviet Republics.
In return for the reunification of Germany, the first Bush Administration promised the Soviet Union there would be no enlargement of NATO east. Not one inch. The promise was broken. I am not sure if it was a good idea to expand east or not, but it certainly is viewed as a "broken promise" by the Russians. America and its advisors are widely blamed for the post-Soviet economic shocks which led to a huge increase in poverty, the concentration of wealth in a few hands, rising death and falling birth rates. Richard Cohen has written extensively about how in the Post-Soviet period American triumphalism and broken promises, condescending lectures and demands for unilateral concessions have resulted in an unnecessary and dangerous remilitarizing of American- Russian relations.
The recent decision by the Obama Administration to drop the missile shield alignment in Poland was widely praised in Russia. As a result, the Russian government has given the U.S. reason to hope they may help apply leverage with Iran. Prominent neo-cons and hawks at the time excoriated the Obama Administration, but paid no attention to the fact that majorities in both Poland and the Czech Republic were in favor of scrapping the plan. The reason? They know that encircling and provoking confrontation with Russia is a bigger risk to their security, their economies and energy sources. it is quite obvious that the Bush Administration lost all leverage and persuasive powers with Russia due to their policy of encirclement and isolation. But Mr. Corum's prescription is to pour the coals on and double down on a policy that has absolutely failed. Not only that, but many in Russia think that these policies are evidence of a new Cold War. Is Russia truly the enemy of the United States? Or are people like Corum still stuck in the Cold War paradigm? Or is it just that the military-industrial complex needs to find enemies?
As an American patriot, I do not like policies that damage our standing in the world and, however well-intentioned ,make it a less safe and more hostile place. As an American in Russia, I am often asked by Russians "Why does America not want to be friends with Russia?" I always tell my Russian friends that I have a fundamental disagreement with my countrymen who support policies that isolate and escalate a new Cold War with Russia.

What Your Thanksgiving Meal Says About How You Spend Money
Some of the links in this post are from our sponsors. Read our disclosure to see how we make money.
Well, Thanksgiving is tomorrow and as John showed us on Monday, we are going to be eating some food. Americans will be eating nearly 19 million gallons of mashed potatoes and 450,000 pounds of green bean casserole. I'm guilty of probably eating 400,000 pounds of green bean casserole myself. Trust me, I love that stuff and it's a battle at the table when my brother is there. I take no prisoners when it comes to green bean casserole. OK, let me wipe my mouth and move on.
This holiday got me thinking a little bit about the correlation between eating food and spending money. Not in regards to spending money on eating out, but more about the control we exhibit when we eat meals such as those during Thanksgiving. When that table is full of delicious food, we might be a little out of control. We have temptations surrounding our plates and we have to choose how we want to fill our plate's real estate.
Some of us go overboard and fill the plate sky high. It's like we hadn't eaten a meal in the past month. Others take the portions they know they will eat and enjoy that. We face motivations that might test our self-control. We might tell ourselves it's only one day and we'll be better tomorrow. Our eyes might be bigger than our stomachs. No matter the reason, many of us overindulge on Thanksgiving. Just look at the infographic John put up again. It's outstanding.
How Does this Relate to Money?
I remember sitting down a few years ago when I was deep in debt and looking at a giant table full of food. I'm lucky to be in that situation, so I'm not complaining. As I filled my plate with everything I could, I realized my control was similar to how I handled my money. When the temptation was strong, I would let myself go. No matter if it was food or a sweet sale. My spending and my eating habits mirrored each other.
Since I don't eat like a king every day, Thanksgiving gives me a different perspective toward my money. I also don't face the temptation to overspend every day. When I used to encounter the temptation to spend, I would overspend. I would buy things I didn't need only because they were on sale. I had no self-control. All a store had to do was put something I wanted near me and I was swiping my credit card until the cows came home.
I couldn't believe how close my behavior was between my spending habits and my eating. Anytime a temptation was there, I gave in. I was ruining my finances and my health. Luckily for me, I have since moved on from these issues.
While I still love to indulge in green bean casserole, I don't do the same with my money. I still see temptations, but I use the "sleep on it" technique where I see the temptation, go home, and sleep on it. If I still want or need it the next day, then I will go deeper into the thought process to make sure I really can afford to spend the money.
Temptations Do Affect Your Eating and Spending Habits
When you're out scouring through Black Friday deals and fighting crowds, think about how you are spending your money. Did you overindulge the night before and are you doing the same with your money? Do you see a correlation between your eating habits and your spending habits? Does temptation cause you to lose self-control?
I was amazed at when I noticed how I handled temptation on both fronts. I confronted them in the same manner and that caused me to have a bigger belt and a smaller wallet. I have learned my lesson in handling temptation, but the holidays are a trying time. You have to know what's going on in your head before you can control anything else. Don't let this holiday season slip by leaving you fuller with a lot less money. It's not a good way to start the new year.
Have you ever noticed a connection with overeating and overspending? Does Thanksgiving create the ultimate test between you and temptation? What do you like to pile your plate high with on Thanksgiving?

Inscribed on reverse: 'The Bazaar Musoori', below: '8th May 1878'
Artist: North, Marianne (1830-1890)
Medium: Oil on paper
Date: 1878
Oil painting on paper by Marianne North of the bazaar at Mussoorie dated 8th May 1878. Marianne North visited India in 1877-79 and completed over 200 paintings whilst there. In her autobiography, 'Recollections of a Happy Life' of 1892, she wrote, "Masuri is a long scattered place, covering an uneven ridge for about three miles, looking over the wide Dun valley on one side, and into the rolling sea of mountains on the other. The ever-changing lights and shadows over the great mountains were a continual wonder for me to watch...One day we went up the the hills and saw a tribe of black-faced monkeys, with long tails and grey whiskers, jumping from tree to tree and shaking the very trunks with their sudden springs. Those hills were full of wild nooks, great overhanging rocks, and scraggy twisted oaks...The climate was delicious between the showers, which were as frequent as in England."

The purpose of the ISO 9000 certification program is to imbed quality and efficiency into business processes so that manufacturers produce better quality goods and more satisfied customers.
So why aren't more things ISO 900 certified? It seems to me that there are things outside of business that could benefit from this sort of "stamp of approval." Below is my list of suggestions.
- Parenthood. This is at the top of my list because every parent I've known has asked for a manual to help them raise kids. What if the process were streamlined so that you knew exactly the right thing to do in every situation?
- Dating. What if you knew that your date was ISO 9000 certified so that you could expect everything to go perfectly? The man would bring the right kind of flowers and you'd go to the best restaurants and never have to wait too long. Everything would be standardized including the amount of cleavage the woman was expected to reveal in her outfit.
- Churches. This could be a huge bonus to churches who want to grow. Think about what it would mean if your church could say: "85% of our congregation reaches Heaven. Results you can believe in!"
These are just a few of my ideas. Fantasy? Sure. Life has no guarantees. But the thought of trying to put a guarantee on it makes me laugh and that improves the quality of my life.

Isn't it about time Democrats counter the Republican agenda with laws that make life incredibly uncomfortable for them.
So, let's talk GUNS!!!
So, let's talk GUNS!!!
The GOP roadblock agenda has been overwhelming; voter regulatory hoops, abortion restrictions, testing for food stamps and tighter unemployment qualifications. It's time Democratic answer that challenge with their own set of roadblocks. Virginia has stepped up to the plate, and it's genius:
Virginia last week. Attorney General Mark Herring announced that he would unilaterally repeal agreements with 25 other states for reciprocal recognition of carry permits by February 1st, claiming that he found their standards for issuing carry permits too low. Herring argued that Virginia residents could apply for and receive carry permits in other states when they couldn't qualify within their own state and therefore evade the restrictions imposed by Virginia law.Yes, yes, yes. And that includes Wisconsin of course, where almost anything goes now.
And yet, one of the oddest reactions to Virginia's effort was this editorial response in the Richmond Times-Dispatch:
But stopping reciprocity agreements with 25 states will do nothing to deter crime here in Virginia. The question that should be asked of Herring is this: Why target CHP holders if they aren't committing the majority of crimes?Oh, so CC owners aren't "committing the majority of crimes," just a few of them?
Elections Matter, except when they don't: CC advocates are also making the argument that the Democrats lost in the recent elections...except when they won:
Since Gov. Terry McAuliffe, Herring, and Democrats lost big-time in electoral contests last month — despite millions of dollars from their billionaire benefactor Michael Bloomberg — they are now using tyrannical means to impose more gun control as retribution for their losses.
What's the takeaway from all of this? Elections can have very deleterious consequences. Virginians knew very well that McAuliffe, Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam, and Herring were going to enact gun control by any means possible, but they chose to elect them over good men like former Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and state Sen. Mark Obenshain.
Why are they needed in the first place? Article IV, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution states, "Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State." The inclusion of that clause clearly intended to prevent these kind of legal traps for law-abiding citizens by forcing other states to recognize the licenses and permits of other states, and its placement in the original articles shows that this takes precedence over the 10th Amendment recognition of state sovereignty.Yes, earlier parts of the Constitution are more constitutional than the latter parts. Love the concept, since that included the 2nd Amendment.
The Fox News Debate: The Accountability Project's Nomiki Konst is the best I've seen arguing against irresponsible gun laws. Townhall's Guy Benson on the other hand, doesn't like it when a "Democrat" AG does what he legally can do...by supposed "fiat:"
Guy Benson: "They failed to regain the state senate...Now that they've lost, now that they've had a failed attempt to convince voters, what are they doing, they're having the state's attorney general - a Democrat - impose this agenda by fiat. Now apparently its within his legal right and authority to do so..."
(Side Note: I'm fascinated by the right wings campaign to make Democratic lawmaking an unthinkable act of villainous conduct. It's a 5 year theme that has taken hold and radicalized the right, making one party authoritarian rule now, the winner by default.)
Not Safer - CC Raising Violent Crime: Forcing through lenient gun laws for the minority of gun toting Wisconsinites who don't represent the majority of us who feel less secure with armed strangers prancing around now have the numbers to back up what we've been saying all along:
Political Heat: In fact, according to FBI statistics that have studied active-shooter situations (PDF), a person without a gun is more likely to stop a shooter than someone with a gun. Thirteen percent of active-shooter situations studied by the FBI ended with someone using means besides a gun to end the situation. Conversely, in only three percent of all active-shooter situations did a "good guy with a gun" actually stop a "bad guy" with a gun.
According to FBI crime stats since concealed carry was implemented in the state, violent crime has gone up in Wisconsin by 22 percent. That's not to say that concealed carry was responsible for that rise in crime -- but it has failed to make us safer, as proponents like Gov. Scott Walker promised it would in 2011.

The Adoration Of The Magi, In 'The Lovell Lectionary'
Medium: Ink, pigments and gold on vellum
Date: 1403
John, Lord Lovell, of Titchmarsh (near Thrapston in Northamptonshire) died in 1408. This lectionary contains a full-page miniature with an inscription stating that he commissioned it as a gift to Salisbury Cathedral, so that the canons would pray for his soul, and for that of his wife, Maud de Holand. The same miniature has the name of the artist, John Siferwas, a Dominican friar and the illuminator of the Sherborne Missal, which is also in the British Library. Siferwas was a successful artist who originated at Guildford but seems to have worked on an itinerant basis. Questions have arisen as to where the manuscript was made. It could well have been produced at Salisbury, although Glastonbury has been suggested. The Sherborne Missal is known to have been made for St Mary's Abbey, Sherborne, in Dorset, and probably was made there. Siferwas probably had been head-hunted for the project after his tour-de-force performance on the 'Lovell Lectionary'. The historiated initial 'C' shows the three wise men presenting their gifts to the Christ Child; in the corners of the border are remarkably individualised male 'portraits', though they probably do not represent particular people.

Bellingham WA
Chris Foss, Owner
The mission of the Greenhouse is to provide a spirited collection for the home by carefully selecting a high quality, unique inventory. Originally a plant store, The Greenhouse literally sprouted in downtown Bellingham, WA in 1972. Chris Foss and Foster Rose opened the store with borrowed capital and a passion for tropical plants. From the beginning, Greenhouse combined a strong sense of community with an eagerness to meet the changing needs of a growing city. This led to the introduction of house-wares and home furnishings in the mid 1970's. Over the decades, the store has remained true to its mission. Today, that collection has evolved and grown to please locals and tourists alike, while continuing to be an avid participant in the local economy and community.

This article titled "Fondation Cartier celebrates 30 years with portrait tribute to artists" was written by Hannah Ellis-Petersen, for The Guardian on Friday 24th October 2014 18.29 UTC
On the wall of the Fondation Cartier in Paris, a patchwork of more than 100 small, colourful portraits hang in a perfectly linear collage. Most of the faces are instantly recognisable – David Lynch is mounted alongside a smiling Patti Smith and Lou Reed, while the imposing figure of Paul Virilio hangs next to an abstract Wolfgang Tillmans.
The work, by Japanese painter and graphic designer Tadanori Yokoo, was commissioned by the Fondation Cartier to mark its 30th anniversary this week. It pays a visual tribute to Fondation Cartier's treasured community – some of the biggest names in art, music, film and science – who have worked with and exhibited at the museum since it began three decades ago.
A museum and patron of contemporary art, this was the place that orchestrated an impromptu Velvet Underground reunion in 1990, commissioned a show by Jean Paul Gaultier that was made entirely from bread (drily named Pain Couture) and was the first major museum to exhibit the drawings and photographs of film director Lynch in 2007. Even the building, a great glass structure in Montparnasse designed by the French architect Jean Nouvel, has become a Parisian landmark.
To mark the 30th anniversary, an exhibition by the esteemed Argentinian painter Guillermo Kuitca, titled Les Habitants, opens on Saturday. Intended as a journey through the foundation's history, Kuitca's installation is a direct response to Lynch's life-sized recreation of an eerie living room, with deep red walls and a zebra print chair sat hauntingly in the middle, which was first exhibited in 2007.
Instead of simply being an exhibition of his own work, Kuitca's installation or "visual journey" responds to themes in Lynch's piece by bringing together a diverse selection of other artworks which purvey themes of space and suburban weirdness. Lynch's Living Room is on display – with a recording of a concert given by Patti Smith and Lynch at the foundation in 2011 playing in the background – alongside a film by the Armenian film-maker Artavazd Pelechian, a painting by Francis Bacon and two works by Kuitca himself.
"David's living room had a very profound impact on me when I first saw it," said Kuitca. "So I wanted to revisit that feeling with this exhibition, and expand on that using work by other artists as well as my own paintings, bringing them together in a dialogue. It is a visualisation and celebration of the foundation's history and the unique networks between art and artists it has created over the 30 years."
Discussing Kuitca's interpretation of his living room piece, Lynch, laughing, told the Guardian: "He completely ruined the whole thing." He added: "There's really something to the exhibition. By him taking my work as a starting point it kind of kicks a new trail and it has led to fantastic things, so I'm all for it."
The director of films such as Mulholland Drive and creator of the cult TV show Twin Peaks also spoke about how the foundation had been the first to champion him as an artist and photographer, rather than as a film-maker.
"Before I worked with the Fondation Cartier, I had never really thought about my art, my drawings and my photographs, in that way," said Lynch. "It all began when Hervé Chandès, the director of the foundation, came to my house and the next thing I knew I was having my first solo show here in 2007. Now I have so many shows of my art, so it is incredible what Hervé and the Fondation started."
Lynch, who also contributed to a 2011 exhibition at the foundation celebrating mathematics, added: "This is a place that is completely designed to champion artists without restraint. It inspires them, it connects them, it feeds the work and that is very very important. They celebrate art, they protect the art but then they also become like family with these artists. And they have no boundaries."
The Fondation Cartier began life in 1984, at a time when contemporary art was beginning to burgeon in France. While it is still funded 60% by the jeweller Cartier, it operates under the strict rule that no artist who works with the foundation can ever work with the luxury brand, creating a distinct and important line between the business and arts patronage.
Alain Dominique Perrin, who set up the foundation, said: "What we have done is not only show the artists like other museums have done, we have gone further and we have pushed them to go further, in their exhibitions and our commissions.
"We have around 1,000 artists we work with and the great thing is, they always come back. David Lynch is here every month, the same with Patti Smith. I think it is very unique. Where in the world do you see artists putting on an exhibition but then revisiting over and over? That's why we are different. We are here only to serve the art and the artists."
William Eggleston, the celebrated photographer widely credited as the pioneer of colour photography as an artistic medium, also spoke about his fruitful relationship with the museum. which It began eight years ago when the foundation commissioned him to go into the Arizona desert in the US to take photos, and later Kyoto, Japan, and then Paris. His pictures, showing a darker, raw side to the French capital, have since become iconic.
Now aged 75, he echoed Lynch's sentiments that the foundation had become family. Speaking in his gravelly Memphis drawl, he said: "It was the foundation who first invited me to photograph Paris. But I've also been doing abstract drawings all my life and the foundation was the first place to say, let's bring both together in an exhibition and show them alongside my photos. No one had ever done that before. It was very unusual and I loved it.
"This is a unique place to be as an artist. If there is another place in the art world like this, then I have never found it. They understood that, whether people like it or not, the world is in colour. Always has been, always will be."

Remember a game from ten thousand years ago in which players were supposed to chuck paint around a white room to reveal the similarly colored objects inside it? First revealed in 2008, The Unfinished Swan has finally been revealed as a full game, and exclusive to the PlayStation Network.
Studio Giant Sparrow claims the game is about creating "a sense of wonder," a goal that occurred naturally while developing the game. While the concept could have been applied to many different types of game, Giant Sparrow has gone for something a little "artsy" with what seems heavily exploration-based.
I love where this is going, and it seems like they've pulled something really classy out of the hat. Check out the trailer and see what you think. Could very well be the next remarkable PSN game.

In response to an email to all councillors from Mike, denying responsibility for what was written, I have suggested he report the matter to the police, as this now looks much like a criminal offense, involving both hacking and homophobic remarks. A complaint would swiftly help to clear his name, as the police would very quickly be able to identify the source of the posts.
Some good news, of course, is that Margate will take a £100,000 share of the £1 1/4 million in the 'Portas Pilot' to resurrect failing High Streets and Thanet also receives some £4 million to bring empty homes back into use.
Today, sadly marks the funeral of Cllr Brian Goodwin at the Thanet Crematorium at 4pm and I took this sunset photo yesterday 'in memoriam', so to speak. A great many people locally, will miss his cheery good humour and his personal sense of optimism to the very end.
I was somewhat surprised to hear that Labour were already campaigning in Westgate last Saturday morning, where my sources report that Cllr Iris Johnston and the fledgling Mayor of Margate, Will Scobie, were out collecting signatures, with Will's girlfriend, Jodi Hibbert the new Mayoress of Margate.
Starting a local election campaign in advance of the funeral of the last ward Councillor, is considered by some here, as both disrespectful and the height of bad manners and I'm struggling to understand why Labour might want to deploy Jodi Hibbert as their candidate for the Westgate ward. Perhaps someone can enlighten me?
Over at the Birchington Parish Council last night, the excitement was never-ending. The packed meeting was to elect a new Chairman and officers, with the public, once again waiting to see if Cllr John Worrow might make an appearance to face his public.
Cllr Worrow didn't disappoint and with his help, TIG managed yet another political coup, with Cllr Jack Cohen, receiving enough committee support to take the Chair of the Parish Council from Linda Wright by a margin of one vote.
Item 8 on the Parish Council agenda was public speaking and this was exactly the opportunity a number of people in Birchington were waiting for. Even Harvey Patterson, Thanet District Council's,'very own legal eagle' had been dragged along to deal with the some of the anticipated questions to Cllr Worrow and Cllr Dr Cohen, from Heather Seer and the aggrieved members of Minnis Bay Watch.
Just before the item was called, Cllr Worrow, stood-up, gave his apologies, 'an important meeting to attend' and promptly walked-out, to jeers and catcalls of 'Coward' from some in the hall
So, once again, it appears that Cllr Worrow has ducked-out of taking any responsibility for his statements and avoided the most fundamental democratic interaction with the people who once voted him and quite likely will never vote for him again.
I wonder how long this 'carry-on' style of parish council political farce will continue in Birchington? With Cohen, Worrow, Furness and La Roche in control of the village, the answer is without doubt, 'as long as it takes.'

The Cross-country season offers great opportunities for runners of all ages and abilities to get away from the road and race on totally different terrain over the winter months. With most events providing races from U13 to Senior level, cross country fixtures provide one of the few opportunities for club members from all age groups to compete and mix together, often with three family members to be found competing in three different age groups!
From October to March each year, we compete in regular cross-country fixtures as part of the Hampshire Cross Country League , arguably the strongest league in the South of England, as well as participating in the Wiltshire Cross Country Championships each December. Many athletes go on to represent Wiltshire at Regional and National level.
Come and meet the cross country team down on the track on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:30 pm for a 6:45 start. You could also join in on a road run on Wednesday at 6:30pm, meeting at 5 Rivers Leisure Centre.
We look forward to welcoming you.
