Recalling Battles Of Congress Past
Originally published on Sat December 29, 2012 5:38 pm
There is nothing new about the Congress coming to a hostile halt at a critical moment - fussing and fuming, holding dueling impromptu news conferences at the Ohio Clock - that's a nearly 200-year-old timepiece that counts the hours outside the Senate Chamber - or representatives stopping to chat in the beautiful Rayburn reception room outside the House with George Washington looking disapprovingly down from his portrait.
I remember many Christmas weeks spent with my colleagues covering the House and Senate instead of with my own family at my own house. More than once, my friend Cokie Roberts and I brought wrapping paper and ribbons to the Senate radio and television gallery, trying to get all our gifts wrapped and sent in time. At least there were lots of post offices open around Capitol Hill, and no lines. But no matter how irritating it was to wait around and waste time, there was a strong expectation that the waiting would end with an agreement on whatever the contentious issue was - a tax bill, a budget resolution, maybe a resolution to continue doing whatever they were doing until details could be settled. And maybe that will happen. Maybe the cautious optimism will blossom into agreement.
But these days there is an expectation that under the beautiful white dome of the Capitol, there is a little sandbox inhabited by stubborn little kids who've been very badly brought up, never learned to share, never learned to use their words or most especially, never learned to mind their manners, their mothers or in this case, their voters, who clearly don't like what's going on. The biggest battles I recall in Congress, then as now, were over taxes, but the arguments sounded different. One of my favorite chairmen of the Senate tax-writing committee, Senator Russell Long of Louisiana - no longer with us, alas - once brought up a sticky proposition holding up a tax bill. I don't say I'm for it, he said, rocking back in his big leather chair, I don't say I'm against it. I just say who gets it? Now, that is not an expression of a philosophy; that is the basis for a decision. And it appears that as the president and the present Congress tussle over taxes, that is still what remains to be settled. How hard is that?
GEORGE JONES AND MELBA MONTGOMERY: (Singing) Every turn (unintelligible) screaming and a'hollering like thunder and lightning, never (unintelligible) never (unintelligible). She's about to get the (unintelligible). Well, (unintelligible) our people in here hoping they'll stop. And the kids are (unintelligible), why don't they hurry up and get through? Well, the children know better than to marry, there are better looking critters in the city zoo. You come home plastered every night and all you want to do is fight. Well, all I wanna do is have a little fun, (unintelligible) a drink or two and my work is done. I don't know why if (unintelligible) that dream, well, I guess I must have been insane. Every turn (unintelligible) feuding and fighting, screaming and a'hollering like thunder and lightnin'...

Baya Fleece Clog
These are a nice warm winter clog. They are comfortable and roomy. They are easy to clean the outside however the inside would be a challenge to clean being fleece. Great for romping around inside the house.

Snuggles your feet
I love my Crocs, they are practically the only shoes I own. That being said, I have a wide foot and a high instep on one foot due to an injury, so there's a great many styles that I just can' t wear. I have not been able to get my foot into any of the lined styles before, but as this one was marked "roomy" fit, I thought I'd give it a try. Success!! Granted, the one foot is rather snug, but still, these are wearable. Thank you Crocs. One comment, I bought my regular size and I find that my toes are hitting the front, so if you're a half size I'd definitely size up.

Love those Baya Fleece Clogs
This was my third purchase of this style. I love them because they are so warm. It was also a plus to get them on sale. Because of foot problems Crocks are the only shoes that are comfortable for me to wear. I have many styles and colors. These are the best for winter, so cozy and warm. I don't know what I would do if Crocks were not available

I love these lined Crocs, which feel like the Classic Croc, only warmer. The lining is super soft and is just as wonderful as my unlined ones. I have other lined Crocs but they don't have an open back, which I prefer. It doesn't get any better than this, plus they were on sale!

The "crema" version of the Signature Blend is my all day long favorite coffee. This signature blend is what I drink when I run out of the " Signature crema."

Customer Reviews for Comfortex Opaque Roman Window Shades
"Love these!!!"
By customer from Sartell, MN
I couldn't be happier about this purchase. They let in the perfect amount of light. I also love the ease of the cordless push up and pull down. I was leary about the weight of the box and thought they might be too flimsy, but I was pleasantly surprised. I also thought they may have been too short but after a few days of hanging they relax at a perfect length.

By blonde from louisville
getting fabric samples was a great start. the actual roman shades are beautiful. well made and will last for years. the diagrams for installation instructions were a little confusing. the manufacturer needs to have an user help them so they will be clearer.

Mesquite swimmers make a splash at district meets
By DEVIN HASSON, firstname.lastname@example.com
The Mesquite ISD swimming and diving teams ran into some tough competition at last week's District 11-5A and 12-4A meets at the Rockwall ISD Aquatic Center.
But they came away with plenty of reasons to celebrate, highlighted by four gold medals, as MISD athletes earned 21 individual and 15 relay berths to the regional competition next weekend.
"I was really happy that we had as many make it out as we did," MISD coach Kristi Pottorff said. "And most of the kids were able to drop their times, which is always the biggest goal we set for them."
One of his Stallion teammates, Alexandra Gerner, took first place in the 100 butterfly to claim the gold medal. Gerner edged Horn senior Alejandra Mota at the wall to win by 0.29 seconds.
"We had high hopes for Jeremy coming in, and he trains with a U.S. team in Rockwall so he was swimming against a lot of his friends, but to win as a sophomore is a big achievement," Pottorff said. "Alex (Gerner) was a little surprising and she beat Alejandra, who is a senior so that was a little bittersweet, but they went 1-2, which was great, and Alex dropped two seconds off her time so she definitely earned it."
Horn's Kaitlyn Coleman claimed the fourth gold medal, edging teammate Taylor Vrzak to win the one-meter diving event.
Among the other standout performers at the 11-5A meet was Horn junior Hayden Arnold, who placed second in both the 200 individual medley and the 200 backstroke.
The Jaguars' Alek Hill was sixth in the 100 butterfly, North Mesquite's Neil Wayne placed sixth in the individual medley and Mesquite's Kelley Boyd was fifth in the 200 freestyle to also earn individual berths.
Tyler Lee swept the boys and girls district championships in the 11-5A competition, with Rockwall taking second and Rockwall-Heath placing third.
Pottorff said one of the biggest surprises came in the 12-4A meet, where West Mesquite's Kimberly Rico was able to take second in the freestyle and third in the 500 freestyle.
Rico was part of a strong Wrangler contingent. Valerie Aguirre was second in the 100 breaststroke and third in the 50 freestyle and Michelle Lopez was fifth in the 100 freestyle.
On the boys side, Steven Risberg was third in the 50 freestyle and fifth in the 100 backstroke.
Poteet's Shelby Boatwright rounded out the individual qualifiers by placing fifth in the 100 backstroke.
In addition to the individual performances, every MISD team had at least two relay teams finish in the top six.
The 5A regional meet is scheduled for Feb. 8 in Rockwall while the 4A regional competition will be held on the same day in Frisco.
Going to separate sites will create a different dynamic than the swimmers are used to. Despite competing for their individual schools, all the athletes train together under Pottorff and that camaraderie carries over from practice to the meets.
"That is one thing about all of them is that they are so supportive of each other and that comes from the chemistry they build in practice," she said. "Even during the meet, you'll see kids from different schools (MISD) coming over to celebrate with each other or to try to pick each other up when one of them is down."
Pottorff is keeping realistic expectations for the regional meet. Unlike the district level, where the top six finishers advance to the next level, only the winner of the event moves on to the state meet.
She said Nichols probably has the best chance to make a run at state, while Gerner could be a darkhorse if she continues to improve at her recent rate.
But regardless of the results next week, with a team made up mostly of freshmen and sophomores, these are experiences to build on as they look toward a bright future.
"I like their mentality of wanting to create a winning tradition here," Pottorff said. "We're not a powerhouse, not yet, anyway, but I think just getting that mindset that they can go out there and compete with anybody out there, and especially for how many young kids we have, that will be a big step."

You may be asking yourself, "What's a widget?" Or, "Why would I want a widget?"
A widget is a self-contained piece of HTML code that you can embed into your site to add a cool new feature. All you have to do is paste the code into your website. Patch's first widget offering is a News feed, but there are all sorts of widgets out there, including clock widgets, countdown widgets, and lots of other fun features.
Depending on what it does, a widget can add awesome functionality or content to your site, with you barely lifting a finger to get it. For example, our first Patch widget is a cool local news feed. So if you have a local business, government or school website, or maybe a local blog, the Patch News Widget can be an easy source of awesome local content for your site!
You can put a widget on your personal website or blog, if you have one.
No, you can't embed the Patch widget on your Facebook page for now.

No, you'll need your own website or blog to use the widget. We hope to offer other ways for you to use widgets in the future, but for now, you'll need your own website.
That's a huge can of worms you want us to open! For now, Patch doesn't offer that service.
Definitely! Stay tuned!
Right now, we don't have a way for you to change the color of the widget. But we hope to add a widget color changing feature soon!
Probably not. :)

« Randy Wolf To Miss 2013 Season | Main | Cubs Notes: Camp, Pitching, Bush »
Outrighted: Michael Martinez, Jeremy Moore
We'll keep track of the day's outright assignments here...
- The Phillies announced that they have outrighted infielder Michael Martinez to Triple-A. Martinez, 30, saw time at shortstop, second base, third base, and every outfield position in parts of two big league seasons with the club. In 133 games during that stretch, Martinez posted a slash line of .188/.241/.272.
- The Angels outrighted outfielder Jeremy Moore to the minor leagues after removing him from the 60-day disabled list, according to the transactions page at CBSSports.com. Moore missed the entire 2012 season to undergo right hip surgery. The 25-year-old made his MLB debut a year ago, appearing in eight games for the 2011 Angels. He spent most of the '11 season at Triple-A, posting a .298/.331/.545 batting line with 24 doubles, 18 triples and 15 home runs.
