Solders die for a matter of ongoings interests (be it one, or ten, or a hundred of them - eventually, this is what they are intended for), politicians play as being entangled in a web of power game way beyond soldiers' comprehension, crowd shouts for retaliation (bread and circuses principle), of which it will forget next week - all goes the way it is supposed to be. Every part of society performs the way it is supposed to.

War is the blessing, propelling engine for development to be regularly employed once in a while through da timespan, and these are fat-witted vegans who live in their crystal tower of ignorance not being able to see it. Blessed you are, mother India, for not letting your children to reach the point of eating.....during actual full-scale war. Blessed are the ignorant.)

Lasik or laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is a kind of eye surgery, where the patient has to undergo a laser eye treatment process, in which his/her cornea is re-shaped to proffer better sight. To get rid of eye sight related issues, and to get rid of glasses, there is nothing better than Lasik eye treatment. And as we all know, medical science has been progressing in an unmatchable speed, and if thoroughly evaluated and performed, Lasik can help you to enjoy spectacle less life. In most cases, after undergoing Lasik, patient doesn't need to wear glasses. But if the patient is above 40, he/she may need to wear reading glasses that too if both eyes were corrected for clear distance vision.

Geoff Cameron could not have been more adamant.
Asked if he would miss decrepit Robertson Stadium, Dynamo and U.S. national team center back sounded like a man whose divorce was finally complete and he was eager to move away from a miserable and evil ex.
"Nothing! Nothing," Cameron said when he was asked what he will miss from Robertson. "We're on our field. I'm happy to be there. We don't have to buy anything or get in their locker room. I don't miss anything."
So, Geoff, how do you really feel?
Pressed a bit and asked if he would at least miss the cats that roamed the stadium, Cameron tried to find something positive from UH's longtime football stadium.
"Actually, maybe one thing," he said. "There was some slight breeze at Robertson because there was that hole when you played the game. There is no wind in the new stadium, none. It's an oven, so it kind of sucks for the other team coming in because they're going to die."
Robertson Stadium isn't a very good stadium, and UH will soon start building a beautiful new stadium worthy of its resurgent football team. Regardless of the state of the stadium, though, the Dynamo had the best home record in MLS during the franchise's first six years there.
BBVA Compass Stadium might also prove to be a great home field advantage when opponents arrive to play in the heat.
"We're dying in training at like 10:30-11 o'clock," he said. "It heats up all day, the concrete, the metal and the steel around it, it's just going to be an oven. Make sure the fans bring cold towels."
The Dynamo play their first game in their new home at 3:30 p.m. Saturday against D.C. United.

Raise the Bar
Why spend your party time refilling glasses when you can let guests serve themselves at a designated table? Put beverage bottles in an ice-filled metal bucket. Pour punch and iced tea into pretty pitchers, and line up colorful glasses on a tray. "I add a bowl of lemons, which makes the bar feel summery," says Dallas party planner Kimberly Schlegel Whitman, author of Tablescapes: Setting the Table with Style (Gibbs Smith).

New Leaf
If you're short on ground space near the patio for an herb garden, grow plants in large terra-cotta pots or hanging containers. A grouping of fresh herbs looks great and smells fragrant, and "you can easily reach for them to add to whatever you have on the grill," says Jamie Durie, host of The Outdoor Room on HGTV. "Wrap shrimp kebabs in basil leaves or sprinkle rosemary on lamb chops."

Center of Attention
No other form of entertainment is needed when guests can sit around a portable fire pit in low-slung chairs watching the flames dance. If you can, locate your conversation pit where the yard dips down. "It mimics the feeling of a sunken living room," Durie says.

Flower Power
Think outside the vase by hanging a wreath full of blossoms on your front door. Or place one on the table as a centerpiece with a pillar candle in the middle. Dampen a ring of floral foam and insert flowers. "The blooms stay exactly where you put them," says gardening expert Suzy Bales, author of Garden Bouquets and Beyond (Rodale). She suggests using azaleas along with their leaves, black-eyed Susans, or hydrangeas. Another way to display is to fill a watering can, wheelbarrow, or even a pair of rain boots with flowers. Or float an array of them in a bird bath.

Okay, so it's not the Caribbean, but a centerpiece of one or more goldfish in a favorite clear glass vase will add a bit of tropical flair to a table.

Art Smart
Outdoor decorating can be as simple as arranging a collection of mix-and-match painted picture frames, pieces of driftwood, clocks, plates, old garden tools, or other found objects on a fence or wall. Mirrors, hung or leaning, also make great garden accents. "There are no hard-and-fast rules—have fun outside the same way you would inside your house," Durie says.

Energize a ho-hum yard by hanging birdhouses and feeders from trees or an arbor. "It's a good way to attract a variety of feathered friends to your garden and get the kids involved," Bonney says.

Give Me Shelter
A tent on your lawn is the ultimate summer escape, says Santa Monica designer Annette Tatum, author of The Well-Dressed Home (Clarkson Potter). Use four bamboo poles or PVC pipes as corner supports for a drop-cloth roof, or lean five poles together tepee-style and wrap the cloth around. "Bring out blankets, pillows, a rug, and tables to create a casbah mood," she says. Or order a fold-out lawn tent from quikshade.com, from $100. With a few chairs, it'll feel like a backyard beach cabana.

Blanket Statement
"Brightly colored fabric cut to fit your table adds pizzazz to outdoor entertaining," says Whitman. Look for vintage textiles on Etsy.com and ReproDepot.com. Or find vividly patterned vinyl cloths that can be wiped clean and reused.

Self acceptance - the first essential step to self improvement
Stop pretending you're something you're not, and accept yourself for who you are
'Self acceptance' may sound like giving up and stopping efforts to improve yourself. But it is not that at all. Self acceptance - seeing yourself as you really are (and that's a much nicer experience than it might sound!), is the essential beginning to becoming who you want to be.
Real self acceptance gives you a solid foundation upon which to build yourself into who you want to become. Without that foundation, you may be building a house of cards.
Honesty without guilt
And self acceptance is not just about appreciating your good points - it is more about being honest about your less commendable traits - without feeling guilty or inadequate because of them.
Stop pretending to be something you're not
This is self acceptance and when you truly accept yourself for who you are, without feeling you have to pretend all the time, then paradoxically, your self confidence takes a massive leap.
Self acceptance doesn't mean not striving to improve and change but it does mean making allowances for yourself sometimes, knowing your natural weaker points and accepting them whilst remembering your strong points.
How accepting yourself as you are will help you
Once you truly accept yourself, you will waste no energy or time on self deception or deceiving others and you will develop clarity as to just what needs improving.

WASHINGTON — South Carolina voters in Saturday's Republican presidential primary were focused on the economy and looking for a candidate who could defeat President Barack Obama in this fall's election, preliminary results from an exit poll of voters showed.
The figures also suggested that the final days of the campaign in the state could have an important impact on the results.
Around half said they'd chosen whom to support in just the last few days, and around the same number said candidates' debates played a major role in making their decisions. There were two debates in the state in the campaign's closing days.
Most expressed positive opinions about the background of Mitt Romney, the former head of Bain Capital, a venture capital firm that some GOP rivals — including former House Speaker Newt Gingrich — criticized for being callous about workers when they invested in companies.
Given a choice of four issues that mattered most in deciding how to vote, more than half chose the economy. A strong majority said they are very worried about the direction the nation's economy seems to be taking, and around a third said someone in their household has lost a job in the last three years.
South Carolina's unemployment rate of 9.9 percent is well above the national average.
The next most cited issue was the federal deficit.
The preliminary data also show that when it comes to the desired qualities of a candidate, nearly half want someone who can defeat Obama this November. Smaller, roughly equal numbers were seeking a contender with the right experience, with strong moral character and a true conservative.
The conservative and religious viewpoints of many of the state's GOP voters were also clear.
Solid majorities consider themselves conservative and around the same number support the tea party. Well more than half say they are born again or evangelical Christians, and a majority said it was important that their candidate shares their religious beliefs.
Around 1 in 4 voters said they were military veterans.
The survey was conducted for AP and the television networks by Edison Research as voters left their polling places at 35 randomly selected sites in South Carolina. The survey involved interviews with 1,577 voters and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
Associated Press global polling director Trevor Tompson contributed to this report.

ethereal wedding dress - In a lot of cultures, it is natural for women or even young girls to imagine themselves wearing a tiara. For most women, the only occasion they will ever get to wear a tiara is if they compete in a beauty contest or during the wedding. Because wearing a wedding tiara will only happen once in a woman's life, it is important to do it right the first time around. Here are some tips on making that special tiara day more memorable.
First, select a bridal tiara that will fit the style and design of your wedding gown. While the wedding gown is an important part of the dress ensemble, it is not what should grab the attention. Similarly the bridal tiara is also an accessory, meant to highlight the beauty of the bride. With such elaborate elements such as the wedding dress and bridal tiara, it is important to find a balance so that neither of the elements overwhelm the features of the bride. Make sure that the bridal tiara you will be using does not take too much of the attention away from the gown and the wearer.
A wedding tiara is placed on the head of the wearer. It is meant to draw the attention towards the face of the bride. Like framing a picture, the frame should not overpower what it is framing. If you have an oval face, avoid bridal tiaras that have a peak. With longer faces, select tiaras that are long with little height. The horizontal aspect of the wedding tiara should balance out the length of the face. Another option would be to wear a backpiece or headband to make the face appear rounder.
Select a tiara that will fit the hairstyle you will be wearing during your wedding day. Some wedding tiaras are only suitable for certain hairstyles. Consult with a specialized hairstylist and discuss any ideas or concerns. It may be necessary to do preliminary run on what hairstyle will match the wedding tiara. If you are wearing a bun, place the tiara on the front and bridal tiara behind it.
People of royalty have had more experience in wearing tiaras for other occasions besides weddings. As the intention for most brides is to look and feel like a princess, it may be important to see how they have pulled it off. You can find inspiration in royalty such as Princess Grace and Princess Diana. In one particular picture, Princess Grace had an updo which was used to support the tiara. The tiara fit the hairstyle wonderfully as it elegantly highlighted the hairstyle while fusing both the tiara and the hairstyle together.
Owning a tiara and actually wearing it can be two entirely different things. You may not have the time to practice wearing that wedding tiara at any other time besides your wedding. So on that special day, wear that bridal tiara proud. Being able to wear a tiara comes only once a lifetime for most. Be confident and your poise and elegance will be the best complement to your tiara and wedding ensemble.

George Cukor, in full George Dewey Cukor, (born July 7, 1899, New York, New York, U.S.—died January 24, 1983, Los Angeles, California), American motion-picture director who produced films of high quality for 50 years, combining his skill in working with actors, especially actresses, and his careful attention to details.
Early life and work
Cukor was born in Manhattan to a family of Hungarian Jewish descent. He took an early interest in the theatre and began his professional show-business career in 1919 as a stage manager of a theatre troupe in Chicago. In the early 1920s he spent summers in Rochester, New York, as the resident director of his own stock company and worked winters on Broadway in New York City, where he directed the first stage production of The Great Gatsby in 1926. After moving to Los Angeles in 1929, he became the dialogue director for Lewis Milestone's All Quiet on the Western Front (1930). Under contract to Paramount, Cukor codirected three films before receiving his first solo directorial credit, for Tarnished Lady (1931), a glossy melodrama featuring stage star Tallulah Bankhead. After directing Girls About Town (1931), he replaced Ernst Lubitsch (who had taken ill) as the director of the Jeanette MacDonald–Maurice Chevalier musical romance One Hour with You (1932), only to have Lubitsch return and take over. When Lubitsch ended up with the director credit over Cukor's objections, Cukor left Paramount to join RKO and producer David O. Selznick, whom he had known in New York. There he made What Price Hollywood? (1932), which established the template for William Wellman's A Star Is Born (1937) and its remakes (including Cukor's 1954 version). Constance Bennett starred as a waitress who rises to acting stardom while her alcoholic mentor plummets into disgrace. A Bill of Divorcement (1932) followed but was notable only as the film debut of Katharine Hepburn, with whom Cukor would collaborate nine more times.
Cukor's next significant film, Dinner at Eight (1933), was made while he was on loan to MGM. An adaptation of the play of the same name by George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber, it boasted a star-studded cast that included Jean Harlow, Wallace Beery, and Marie Dressler as well as John and Lionel Barrymore. That triumph was followed by Little Women (1933), based on Louisa May Alcott's Civil War-era novel, with Hepburn, Bennett, Jean Parker, and Francis Dee. It was a major box-office success and earned Cukor his first Academy Award nomination for best director.
The films of the mid- to late 1930s
Following Selznick to MGM, Cukor directed David Copperfield (1935), arguably one of the best adaptations of a Charles Dickens novel ever brought to the screen, with a delightful cast that included W.C. Fields, Basil Rathbone, Edna May Oliver, and Elsa Lanchester. Like Little Women, it was nominated for an Academy Award for best picture, further establishing Cukor's credentials as one of Hollywood's premier young talents. Sylvia Scarlett (1935) reunited Cukor with Hepburn, whose character masquerades as a boy and is taken under the wing of a Victorian-era cockney con artist played by Cary Grant. Because the film bombed commercially, Hepburn began to be perceived as "box-office poison." Cukor's next film, Romeo and Juliet (1936), was one of Irving Thalberg's last productions. A handsome version of William Shakespeare's play, it managed to overcome the casting of Norma Shearer and Leslie Howard, both of whom were at least twice the age of the play's star-crossed teenaged lovers. Another gorgeously mounted production, Camille (1937), came next with Greta Garbo earning an Academy Award nomination for best actress for her portrayal of the noble, tuberculosis-racked courtesan at the centre of the play by Alexandre Dumas fils on which the film was based. Hepburn and Grant then played would-be lovers who must defy society's conventions to be together in Holiday (1938), Cukor's adaptation of Philip Barry's play. The theme of lovers and friends divided by social class or circumstance recurred frequently in Cukor's work.
Because of his proclivity for eliciting strong performances from actresses (especially in his later collaborations with Hepburn), Cukor was often referred to as a "woman's director," a label he did not particularly like, not only because he felt—justifiably—that he directed men well too but also because it seemed to cast aspersions on his sexuality. That Cukor was gay was something of an open secret. However, he was careful to be discrete about his sexuality in a Hollywood that was still prey to homophobia. Indeed, it was long a staple of Hollywood lore that Cukor was fired as the director of Gone with the Wind (1939) as a result of homophobic obstinance on the part of male lead Clark Gable. It is now more widely held that that was a canard and that producer Selznick fired Cukor for his own reasons, primarily his feeling that Cukor was taking too long to make the film. In either case Cukor's next film, The Women (1939), was a big hit. An adaptation of Clare Boothe Luce's comedy of the same name, it featured a stellar female cast that included Shearer, Joan Crawford, Rosalind Russell, Paulette Goddard, and Hedda Hopper.
The films of the 1940s
Arguably, Cukor's most-lasting contribution to cinema history was the romantic comedy The Philadelphia Story (1940), in which Hepburn repeated her role from the stage play that had been written especially for her by Barry. She played a socialite, Grant portrayed her ex-husband, and James Stewart was a reporter; together they created screen magic. The film was nominated for the Academy Award for best picture, Cukor was nominated for best director, and Hepburn was nominated for best actress, while Stewart won the award for best actor.
Less distinguished were the films that Cukor directed before enlisting in the U.S. Army in 1942: Susan and God (1940), A Woman's Face (1941), Two-Faced Woman (1941), Her Cardboard Lover (1942), and Keeper of the Flame (1942). Cukor entered the Signal Corps as a private, where he made unadorned instructional films (including one about latrines and another about electricity). He was never promoted to the officer status he desired, and he finally applied for a discharge.
Back in Hollywood, Cukor filmed Gaslight (1944), his acclaimed adaptation of the Broadway success Angel Street, which he fashioned into a Gothic thriller that received an Academy Award nomination for best picture and which was a showcase for Ingrid Bergman, who won the Academy Award for best actress for her portrayal of a socialite whose husband tries to drive her mad. Angela Lansbury (in her film debut) also received a nomination, for best supporting actress. Cukor's next noteworthy film, A Double Life (1947), brought Ronald Colman his only Academy Award, for best actor for his portrayal of a high-strung actor whose role as Othello in Shakespeare's play of the same name begins to take over his real life. Ruth Gordon and Garson Kanin wrote the Academy Award-nominated screenplay, inaugurating a series of collaborations between them and Cukor, who was nominated again for the best director award. Yet another performer, Deborah Kerr, earned an Academy Award nomination for best actress under Cukor's direction in Edward, My Son (1949). Kanin and Gordon provided Cukor with an especially engaging story for Adam's Rib (1949), which the director turned into a riotously funny battle of the sexes that many critics believe was the strongest Tracy-Hepburn collaboration.
Films of the 1950s
Cukor's direction of Lana Turner in A Life of Her Own (1950) created few sparks, but he guided Judy Holliday to a best actress Academy Award for her performance of a role that she had played on Broadway in Born Yesterday (also 1950), which also earned a nomination for best picture and one for Cukor for best director. Kanin and Gordon's script for The Marrying Kind (1952) was far darker, as Holliday and Aldo Ray played a couple poised on the brink of divorce. That was followed by the sunny, hilarious Pat and Mike (1952), with Tracy and Hepburn again splendid as a sports promoter and a high-class multitalented athlete, respectively. Its Kanin-Gordon screenplay earned an Academy Award nomination. Cukor's next projects were built on screenplays that Gordon and Kanin wrote independently of each other. The Actress (1953) was based on Gordon's autobiographical play about growing up in Massachusetts. It Should Happen to You (1954) starred Holliday in Kanin's modern fairy tale about an ambitious model's extraordinary efforts to get noticed in New York City.
Not only was the musical drama A Star Is Born (1954) plagued by a surfeit of production problems, but Warner Brothers cut 27 minutes after its premiere. Nevertheless, that re-exploration of a story line that Cukor had first examined in What Price Hollywood? featured what is generally regarded as star Judy Garland's strongest screen performance and one that earned her an Academy Award nomination for best actress. Cukor worked with screenwriter Moss Hart to transform the 1937 version of A Star Is Born into a harrowing Hollywood odyssey. That was Cukor's first Technicolor (and Cinemascope) production. In addition to a memorable collection of songs by Harold Arlen and Ira Gershwin, it boasted excellent work from Jack Carson and James Mason, the latter of whom earned an Academy Award nomination for best actor.
Cukor traveled to India to make Bhowani Junction (1956), with Ava Gardner and Stewart Granger. He then directed the highly stylized musical Les Girls (1957), featuring Mitzi Gaynor, Henry Daniell, and Gene Kelly. Heller in Pink Tights (1960), which starred Sophia Loren, was notable as Cukor's only western. Let's Make Love (1960) offered Marilyn Monroe the opportunity to sing, dance, and romance costar Yves Montand, and Cukor extracted one of her best performances.
Last films
Cukor worked with Monroe again in 1962 on Something's Got to Give; however, insoluble problems with the troubled actress (who would soon be dead) culminated in her firing, and 20th Century-Fox eventually shut down the production entirely. My Fair Lady (1964), with Audrey Hepburn in the role that Julie Andrews had created onstage, enjoyed a much better fate, winning the Academy Award for best picture. Rex Harrison also won the award for best actor, and Cukor was finally recognized with the award for best director. Though few would consider it Cukor's best film or even his best musical, My Fair Lady was his first box-office triumph in many years.
Over the next 17 years Cukor made only a handful of films, two of them for television. Despite Maggie Smith's nomination for an Academy Award for best actress for her performance in a role originally intended for Katharine Hepburn, Travels with My Aunt (1972) was unexceptional. Only Love Among the Ruins (1975), a made-for-television romantic comedy shot in England with Hepburn and Laurence Olivier, and The Corn Is Green (1979), also made for television, with Katharine Hepburn in the role of a spinster schoolteacher in Wales, were on par with Cukor's earlier work. His last film—Rich and Famous (1981), a remake of the 1943 melodrama Old Acquaintance, with Jacqueline Bisset and Candice Bergen—was not without its merits, but it was met with generally unkind reviews, which convinced Cukor that the strain was no longer worth the reward, and he retired.
Cukor's was not a flashy style. Although he put a great deal of faith in his cinematographers, he was not indifferent to camera placement and movement. Nonetheless, his films were not distinguished by bravura camera work. Cukor's best films are remembered not for their look but for their feel, which was a product of his deft pacing—regardless of genre—and of his sympathetic relationship with his actors, his fascination with human interaction, and his exquisite sense of taste.

Coming off one of her strongest pitching seasons in her collegiate softball career, senior Krista Cobb had boosted the expectations of herself and set even higher goals for her team. In the fall of 2011, it came as a devastating shock that Cobb's senior year would not play out quite as she had planned. In fact, the senior superstar would not be able to play at all.
After being diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) – a compression of the nerves in her right (pitching) shoulder and super-scapular nerve damage – what began as a perfect journey for Cobb, soon took a new turn.
Beginning her collegiate softball career in 2009, Cobb shined in the circle as she hurled a perfect game against Wagner College in her first start. UCSB softball appeared to have found its newest leading light that would change the face of its program.
Head coach Brie Galicinao praised Cobb as a player who always had grit, continuously proving her "IT" factor whenever the team needed. Though the perfect game was her absolute first career start at UCSB, Cobb proved that she was working with far more than beginner's luck. Throughout her career, her success continued to grow as she earned Big West Co-Freshman Pitcher of the Year, All Big West accolades, and even stamped her name into the UCSB record books for single season wins, all-time pitcher's victories, shutouts and strikeouts.
"She was always ready to go in no matter what," Galicinao said. "I knew that she always wanted the ball and was ready to compete."
With an array of accomplishments under her belt, Cobb was more than eager to get back onto field and end her final season with a bang.
Moving forward into the 2011-12 season, the softball program had planned to achieve its largest aspiration in program history: becoming Big West champions. The team revamped their focus and emphasized the significance of physical and mental preparation, which defined a championship team.
"You set the goal to win conference every year, but there was something about this specific team, this dynamic of girls that we really felt and knew that it would happen," Cobb elaborated.
As Cobb's senior season rolled around in the fall of 2011, the pitcher immediately began facing obstacles that flagged attention. Cobb and her coaching staff initially attributed the performance struggles to mechanical pitching issues or mental preparation.
"Once I had tingling in my fingers and I couldn't feel what I was doing wrong, I knew that no feeling probably meant something pretty serious," Cobb explained.
Quite serious it was. The TOS diagnosis, at last, solved the mystery. Immediately, the senior standout inquired not if, but when, she would be able to return to the circle.
"Can I pitch again? Can I pitch for this team? UCSB softball is my main priority," Cobb asked.
Visiting multiple doctors, Cobb was relentless in her quest to find a way to compete during her senior season, but her hopes were continuously shut down. A career-ending injury, the potentially fatal diagnosis, left no option for Cobb but to put down the ball once and for all. Undergoing numerous MRIs and nerve conductions, Cobb's sole alternative was to undergo surgery (which even her physician was unwilling to perform due to its magnitude of health risk).
Her last struggles in the circle would mark her final days as a collegiate pitcher, but spurred the emergence of character and perseverance that followed.
Once the holder of a spotlighted position with control of the game in every pitch, Cobb is now unable to throw a ball without pain. Her new – far less physical – role as a guide for her younger teammates and spiritual leader undoubtedly took Cobb, her teammates, and coaching staff by surprise. Seeing the game through an entirely new lens, the senior explains that this role has led her to discover a form of leadership that she has never felt before. Cobb has shown maturity and courage in the way that she has grown to accept that fate that has been placed upon her.
"I can't imagine how hard it is for her to sit by and watch for her last year," Galicinao said about Cobb's new perspective. "Having a career-ending injury has been a process, but throughout the whole time, however she's felt about her injury, she's been putting the team first all year long."
To the outside world, Cobb's Thoracic Outlet Syndrome may have been one of the worst setbacks a pitcher could have. Instead, she chose to view her diagnosis in a more optimistic light. She explains that in actuality she has learned more this year than ever before. She recalls her experiences at UCSB and explains that her adversity has taught her never to take anything for granted - not only in softball - but also in everyday life.
"As small as softball may be in the wide scheme of things, this injury has been life-changing," Cobb declared.
Galicinao emphasized Cobb's significance to the program, "hopefully she knows how much we need her and how much the team values what she's doing. She may not be in the circle, ball in hand, but she's there; with the same mission, the same goals, continuously making contributions. She matters."
By remaining a vital aspect to the team, Cobb has inspired her teammates to play every game like it could be their last. From a freshman phenomenon to a senior leader, Krista Cobb has proven that character growth, strength, and perseverance do not simply fall into our laps. She demonstrates the true embodiment of living to learn through her struggles. She continues to be grateful for every day that she has spent with UCSB softball.
"Now more than ever, she is here for Gaucho softball," Galicinao said.

Driving home from work tonight, I heard Frank Gaffney on Hugh Hewitt's radio show talking about a new ten-part course by the Center for Security Policy called The Muslim Brotherhood In America. It sounds like mandatory viewing. There has been a lot of confusion over the years as to who our enemy is in the War on Terror; or the War on Islamic Extremism; or the Skirmish Against al Qaida and No One Else; or various other formulations. In my view, if we had to identify a single enemy in the war, it would be the Muslim Brotherhood. Check it out.

Some interesting comments below to the eternal question from Andrew Holtz, a health journalist. Comments were posted on Citiwire, in response to an article by Neal Peirce posted on this site.
"...Many people are unaware of how we actually pay for our roads. Recently, a marketing company in Portland sparked strong public reaction with an ad campaign that asked: Should cyclists pay a road tax? The company's wrap up report included the conclusion that most people simply don't know that cyclists already do pay taxes that are used to build and maintain roads. "[T]he amount of misinformation shared throughout this campaign was staggering," the authors of the report by Webtrends wrote:
Here's recent summary of the subsidies of motor vehicles:
Analysis Finds Shifting Trends in Highway Funding: User Fees Make Up Decreasing Share
It documents that road users pay less than half the cost of highways. The subsidy for local roads is much higher...Comprehensive economic analyses support the idea that if costs were fairly apportioned, drivers should pay people to use bicycles."

Couples of Violet District members left to form a band named RPWL; I've heard Trying to kiss the sun and it is UNlistenable. IT sounds too much bland alternative rock. This is the right example of band that could kill prog rock, as alternative rock killed hard rock.

I've listened to both bands and although I liked Violet District, I found RPWL to be enjoyable. I really don't find myself listening to either one a lot though.
BTW- nothing will kill Prog. There are too many of us sharing this wonderful stuff with others. My 15 yr old son loves Gentle Giant, Spock's Beard, IQ, Happy the Man, and Porcupine Tree. My 18yr old son likes Tool, A Perfect Circle, Opeth, Dream Theater, and Pink Floyd. Yes, I've corrupted them. I'm proud of it too. Neither of them listens to the radio very much. They prefer to choose what they listen to.

At this young age, you have to show them other stuff than hip-hop and alterno. If not, they will be influenced by other young people. The young does not have the reflex to seek other music. If the young's choice is rap & alterno, then it starts bad for him!
At least, if young people don't choose prog, classsical or jazz, at least they should choose something positive & sane!

In Norway a few years ago we had a minister of culture that said we should brainwash children with classical music from at least kindergarten age,that way,when they grew up,they would have been taught how to appreciate good music and therefore would. My view of politicians is like Alvy Singer's in "Annie Hall", a notch underneath child molester,but here's at least one politician I can respect!

Amy Schumer's Truth Might Be Too Much for 'The Tonight Show'
Funny lady Amy Schumer has never had a problem speaking her mind in just about every situation imaginable -- from social interactions to her own work -- so it's not particularly surprising that she brought that same level of honesty to a rousing game of "Truth or Truth" on 'The Tonight Show' last night.
What is surprising is how easily Schumer stops host Jimmy Fallon in his tracks with one of her truthi-est answers. Nice work, lady, he did not see that one coming.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A four-year starter at point guard, one of the most accomplished players in program history, senior Jarvis Summers saw his Ole Miss career come to an end, as did four of his fellow seniors in LaDarius White, Aaron Jones, M.J. Rhett and Terence Smith.
They helped the Rebels to a 21-13 record and the eighth NCAA Tournament appearance and the fifth NCAA Tournament win in program history. Summers, White and Jones are members of a select group, becoming just the seventh senior class to make at least two trips to the Big Dance.
For Rhett and Smith, graduate transfers from Tennessee State and UT Martin, respectively, they experienced the NCAA Tournament for the first and only time, realizing the goal that they set out to accomplish when they began their respective careers at Ole Miss.
"I hate it for Jarvis," head coach Andy Kennedy said. "He's had a tremendous career for us. He's been a leader, he's been steady. He's had a tough year all year shooting the basketball, and I guess it's somewhat fitting that he would end with his struggles offensively.
"Without Jarvis and without Snoop and without A.J. and without M.J. and without Terence, the five seniors who the journey ends tonight, you know, we're not here. We're not in the NCAA and we're certainly not in the position that we were to have the chance to advance. I'm proud of those guys and what they were able to accomplish."
Summers finishes his career as just the fourth player in SEC history with 1,600 career points and 500 assists. He is also one of only nine players in Ole Miss history with 80 career wins, serving as a mainstay at the point guard position since the early part of his freshman season.
To the end, despite his performance in his final college game, Summers showed true leadership, putting the team before himself, as he has throughout his decorated career.
"It's really frustrating," Summers said. "All this year, I have been struggling, and I couldn't get things going, but I'm not a person who makes excuses. If it's on me, it's on me, and all I can do is move forward."
