If you were someone who after the first two weeks of the season still didn't believe the 2018 Rhody Rams are a different breed from year's past, then the last time out should have convinced you. Rhode Island went toe-to-toe with the AAC's Connecticut Huskies in an offensive shootout, falling just short in the fourth quarter by a score of 56-49. The two long-time rivals put up video game numbers, combining for 105 points and 1,123 total yards on offense.
Despite allowing a touchdown with just 57 seconds left, the Rams still had a chance to win the game. Quarterback JaJuan Lawson drove the Rams into UConn territory on the final drive, connecting with junior wide-out Aaron Parker (7 catches, 128 yards and a touchdown) on two key first down plays, including a 22-yard play on fourth-and-16. At the UConn 16-yard line, the Rams gave up a sack that helped the Huskies seal the victory.
Lawson, who won a second straight CAA Football Offensive Player of the Week honor (his third in eight career starts) continued his hot start to the season with yet another monster game. For the second game in a row, Lawson threw for more than 300 passing yards and four touchdowns. He added another 85 yards on the ground with 2 rushing scores.
Although the Rams suffered their first loss of the season, there are a lot of positives to take from the game. The offense continues to roll and come up with clutch plays, while the defense, although they struggled, caused a couple of turnovers for the third straight game. Jim Fleming's team keeps growing every week, showing a lot of heart and proving they're not scared of anyone. Remember, the Rams were losing this game 42-28 at halftime. It's impressive that even in a non-conference game, this team continued to grind and have a chance to win in the end.
Coming off the bye week, Rhody finds itself ranked in both national Top 25 polls (No. 22 in the STATS FCS Poll and No. 20 in the AFCA Coaches FCS Poll). There is no doubt this team is making strides game after game, and should make things interesting in the CAA. Yes Kingston, it's true, we have a football season. Here are some key takeaways from the game at UConn.
Coulter Becoming a Huge Piece to the Rhody Puzzle
Sophomore wide receiver Isaiah Coulter is quickly becoming exactly what Jim Fleming hoped he'd turn into, a true threat in this league. Coulter was again a big part of the Rams' success in the passing game, and is officially a guy that opposing defenses have to game plan around. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound receiver set career-highs for a second straight week, catching 10 passes for a game-high 156 receiving yards and a touchdown.
He scored a 15-yard touchdown with 1:26 in the first half that got the Rams within a touchdown behind the Huskies. In the third quarter on 2nd-and-7, Coulter broke out for a huge 47-yard catch that led to a Lawson rushing touchdown to once again get the Rams back in the game.
Over the past two games, Coulter has caught 19 passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns. The Maryland native already has more receptions, yards and touchdowns this season than he had in 11 games last season.
Fleming has seen the cousin of his other star receiver, Aaron Parker, improve every week, and believes his constancy is key.
"Isaiah's been extremely consistent, he's getting better and better with his route running and his habits are becoming the kinds that are necessary for him to continue to improve," Fleming said.
With Coulter just being a sophomore, we could be looking at the future of this Rams football program.
Jones Has Breakout Game in Backfield
Junior running back Naim Jones had a breakout performance in his debut for the Rams. After redshirt junior Zoe Bryant, Jr. left the game with an injury, Jones stepped in to pick up the running game in an eye-opening way. Jones rushed for a Rhody season-high 95 yards on 11 carries. He scored his first career touchdown on a 14-yard run that tied the game 49-49 with 3:13 to go in the game. He almost scored on his first carry of the season, but the play was overturned on a review.
Jones is a transfer from Nassau Community College, where he rushed for 1,300 yards in 16 games. Fleming says they've been trying to get Jones more involved in the offense, but admits to the challenges that come with a transfer player.
"There's a lot of things you need to master in terms of schematic understanding; we knew he had talent and we really wanted to get him the ball," Fleming said of Jones.
It will be interesting to see if Jones' workload will increase as the season goes on, and how Fleming will utilize both Bryant and Jones together. Bryant has been the clear No. 1 with a team-high 36 carries. He also had been extremely productive, averaging 4.8 yards per carry. With the bevy of offensive weapons already proven in the passing game, a 1-2 punch of Bryant and Jones should scare any opposition.
Turnovers Continue to Roll In
Although it was not the best performance of the season for the defense, giving up a season-high 56 points, Rhode Island is still causing turnovers at a consistent rate. The Rams forced three turnovers, including two forced fumbles and an interception. Through three games, the Rams have seven fumble recoveries.
In the third quarter, junior defensive back Rashod Dickerson made his first career interception. It was the first interception caused by the defense this season.
The defense shouldn't be a concern going forward even with the problems they had on Saturday. The unit still had strong performances from key players, including senior Nas Jones, who had a career-high 10 tackles with 2 sacks. Expect Fleming and the coaching staff to clean up any problems they see on the defense during the bye week. That side of the ball is too talented to make what happened in Connecticut a trend.
Rhode Island senior journalism major Derek Mancini will check in throughout the season with his Tuesday Take for GoRhody.com. Before his current internship with the communications office, Mancini interned with WPRI 12. In high school, he was part of a state championship football team for North Providence in 2013.

Scott Walker recall election set for June 5
Updated: 6:22 p.m. ET
Scott Walker, the embattled first-term Republican governor of Wisconsin, will face a recall election on June 5, the Wisconsin Government Accountability Board (GAB) ruled Friday. Walker's Lieutenant Governor, Rebecca Kleefisch, will also face a recall.
The board voted 5-0 in favor of a holding a recall election after finding that the recall ballots for both candidates garnered a sufficient number of valid signatures to proceed.
More than 900,900 valid signatures were collected in a petition to recall Walker, and more than 800,000 valid signatures were collected in a petition to recall Kleefisch. Only 540,208 signatures were required.
Walker became embroiled in controversy last spring after passing a controversial law that would essentially eliminate public workers' collective bargaining rights. Debate over the legislation sparked weeks of protests in the state, as well as a national conversation about the merits of collective bargaining rights for public sector workers.
Democratic lawmakers in Wisconsin were so vehement in their opposition to the law that they fled the state in an effort to stall a vote on the bill, but Republican legislators ultimately used a procedural maneuver to force the legislation through, and passed it without any debate on the floor and with no Democrats present in the room.
In a statement on Friday morning, the Walker campaign said it had anticipated that the recall election would move forward, and expressed confidence that voters would "stand with" the governor come June.
"We have long said that we anticipated the election process would move forward," said Ciara Matthews, the campaign's communications director, in the statement. "Now it is time for voters to examine the choice they will be faced with in June."
Matthews continued: "We believe a majority of Wisconsin voters will stand with Governor Walker's record of laying the foundation for a more successful Wisconsin while moving the state forward and against the Democrats' failed policies that would take Wisconsin back to the days of a $3.6 billion budget deficit. Voters are not prepared to reverse the tremendous progress the Governor has made by prematurely ending his term in this $9 million power grab by out-of-state special interests."
The AFL-CIO, on the other hand, said the ruling marked a "historic" day for Wisconsin.
"Today is another historic day in democracy for the state of Wisconsin," said Phil Neuenfeldt, President of the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO, in a statement.
Added Stephanie Bloomingdale, Secretary-Treasurer of the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO: "Despite the out-of-state dollars that are flooding into Gov. Walker's coffers in an attempt to silence the voices of working people, Wisconsinites will be heard and will reclaim Wisconsin this June."
Democratic primaries will take place on May 8.
So far, there are four Democrats in the running: Former Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk, who has already secured the endorsements of a number of labor groups, elected officials, and liberal organizations, as well as Secretary of State Doug La Follette, state Sen. Kathleen Vinehout and Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, who ran an unsuccessful bid against Walker in 2010.

Great site Marianne!!
How do we contact you to send private message rather than post in public spot?
yes, I'd like to know this, too, thanks!
I'm really being blessed by a lot of your work here, thanks for sharing what God's given you!
We like to ask for permission to use some of your pictures in our online daily devotionals.
I do not believe that word of God is free. They said in a School that results of scientific knowlede are free. When I was in the school they really did not give me religious knowledge at all besides the names of Jacob's sons.
So I am having a problem concerning your writing: Babylon destroyed by a millstone. I went to Youtube and I found videos about crop circles. And one thing led to another. Those crop circles had these geometric pictures and they are quite scientific. And they can be explained.
And I did explain couple of them in one forum. And now I think it was too much. All I want to know is that did you get an idea millstone being same as a crop circle from some forum or is your own original idea?
hi Tapio
The millstone Babylon idea was mine, but then, it could be a coincidence if the same idea is somewhere else as well.
What I meant that the word of god is free: since jesus paid the price for me with his life, I cannot make myself make a profit off someone else's sacrifice.
Notice I do all this and do not ask for money or donations.
If the idea is your own then everything is o.k. But if you have got it from some other forum then I am feeling sad. And I need to know it.
Here are the explanations that came in my mind. They are quite wild but everything is o.k. if millstone=crop circle was your own idea:
O.k. thank you for your response. I am a little bit afraid where I got when I started to study crop circles geometry.
I am not sure I understand the pages you sent. They are talking about hydrogen, wavelengths, and data collection.
What does this have to do with the crop circle? I did see one comment about crop circles, but none of the other comments seem related to it.
Hi Marianne! 🙂 you have beautiful artwork and graphics! I am contacting you as i would love to use your Burning Bush Art for my Acoustic Album! 🙂 Please let me know if this is possible my email address is firstname.lastname@example.com The album is about truth and the picture is so perfect i love it so much. Kind Regards Stephen 🙂


text: I have a manuscript which, in my opinion, is very close to being ready to submit (after about 3 years of work, and of lurking here!) It is not a genre piece, just a fictional story about a group of friends. My question is this: I have a photo that is eerily reminiscent of the opening chapters, and I am considering including it on the title page of the manuscript in some understated way. Having read some other threads on similar topics it would appear that this might look amateurish. If that is the case I would leave it off, but part of me thinks it might provide an eye catching introduction and that rules can sometimes be broken for effect. I'm under no illusions that if the novel were published the picture would be used as cover art or similar, I'll happily leave that decision up to someone with more experience and better judgement than I. I suppose the purpose of this post is to re-ask an old question in a slightly different context. Any advice would be welcome.

Tuesday night was Larry Glass' last city council meeting as an elected official.
At least for the time being.
Parting is such sweet sorrow!
Be strong, friends!!
Filed under: Humboldt County |
"Grateful" doesn't begin to describe it.
"A grateful city says good-bye"? Is that all you got? Lame. You should have a contest to headline the post. Here's my entry.
"Larry Glass, asshole, leaves city after almost destroying it"
Buh to the Bye, Glasshole.
Ding dong the dick is dead. Now where is the investigation re the 15 year old Garr?
A grateful city says hallefuckinglujah.
Anonymous, it will be interesting to see if Nielsen gets himself a new patron saint. Given how compromised he now is, I think he's going to need one, a good one, and Linda Atkins just isn't enough to get 'er done.
Woo-hoo! Congratulations, Eureka!
Floyd may get the last laugh yet.
Squires? Floyd Squires was about the only thing Larry got right, and somehow he managed to fuck even that up. First that half-baked rental ordinance, then the vendetta against Squiers. For the city's sake, I hope that suit gets tossed.
Sadly, Larry ended his political career with another attempted grandstand issue that had already been put in the pipeline.
How like him to act from his personal vacuum instead of checking with, at the very least, his buddy Gar.
For those of us who do watch, it was a fairly sad departure and I hope Linda will be nimble enough to realize her mentor got fired because he didn't really understand the job. She could use a little schooling in that area herself.
I do thank them all for their service. Larry did have his moments, he just doesn't play well with others. Fine if all you want to be is a political activist, but when you get elected to serve, you need to put on your "maturity hat" and not try to create wedge issues to stir up controversy. When those issues come up, the job you are elected to do is try to find consensus not anarchy.
I guess we will always have that behemoth on Wabash to remind us of what bullies are capable of just for the sake of winning.
I hope the new city council realizes they are now charged with serving everyone in the community, not just one neighborhood or one group of political activists.
It will be interesting to watch and comment now that I am free from being the relative of an elected official.
My God. On the H blog the minions are giving verbal head to glass. I just love it. Larry was and is an asshole, period. He was worthless. Play well with others, hell he was hardly human. Linda is going to need to learn what the hell she got elected to do.
If the 5th holds and I think it will, Cliff is going to have to pull out from under Marky or the folks in South County are going to throw him out next time.
An the really bright spot is there might still be a chance Gags is gone.
This leave the Eureka City Council completely bereft of any appreciation for Screaming Lord Sutch. What a loss.
Shit kevin. Wtf are you tlking about? Translate please.
Ok now I get it…..Official Monster Raving Loony Party…..now that is funny Hoov.
Larry and I are simply fans of Lord Sutch's unique vocal stylings. And so should you be too. "Thumping Beat" is particularly evocative.
Kevin. Our taste in music differs. Politics, well we do agree an who is good ad who is plain bad.
OK visualize the VonTrapp kids on the staircase singing "goodbye, Good Bye, GOOD BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In chapter one of Blindfold Chess, we tell of the chess exploits of the Jesuit priest Giovanni Girolamo Saccheri (1667-1733), who played three or four simultaneous blindfold games decades before Philidor. Joseph Sucher, of the University of Maryland's Department of Physics, wrote in with some interesting details about Saccheri's non-chess accomplishments:
In connection with your remarks on the Jesuit Priest Saccheri's prowess in blindfold chess, if there is a second printing of your book you might want to note that Fr. Saccheri was not just a "public lecturer on mathematics at Pavia", as described in your quote from a British journalist. As a result of his investigation of Euclid's parallel postulate he has a permanent place in the history of mathematics. Indeed, he and Omar Khayyam are regarded as the two founders of non-Euclidean geometry. It is therefore amusing to note that both these gentlemen also have an enduring connection with chess: Saccheri because of his early accomplishments in blindfold chess and Omar Khayyam because of his immortal lines in the Rubaiyat, in Fitzgerald's translation:
Tis all a Checkerboard of Nights and Days
Where Destiny with Men for Pieces plays:
Hither and thither moves, and mates, and stays,
And one by one back in the Closet lays.

Friday, March 8, 2013 | 10:55 a.m.
A Republican proposal to ask voters to increase taxes on gold and silver mining operations is a punitive attempt to "inflict pain" on the industry, Nevada Mining Association president Tim Crowley said today in an interview taped for the political talk show "To the Point."
In some of his most pointed comments since Senate Minority Leader Michael Roberson announced plans to seek a mining tax increase, Crowley accused the cadre or Republicans of "ulterior motives."
"We found that people that spring tax plans on various segments of the economy, whether it's mining or any other segment, if they do it in a way that is aggressive like that, that their motives tend to be not just to work with the industry and generate more money, it's to be punitive and to damage that industry," Crowley said. "So that was our first reaction: that it was something meant with ulterior motives to actually inflict pain."
On Tuesday, Roberson and five of his Republican colleagues said they would seek to repeal mining's constitutional tax provisions and ask voters to approve a second ballot initiative to change the way the industry is taxed. Roberson presented the mining tax idea as a way to kill the margins tax ballot initiative supported by the teachers union that will likely be placed on the 2014 ballot.
During a press conference Tuesday, Roberson said he intends to work with his friends in the mining industry to develop a fair method of taxing gold that would result in more revenue for Nevada schools. He denied the move was punitive.
"We support the mining industry," Roberson said. "We are glad they are here. We want them to be profitable and productive, but we also want to look at the mining industry and how they generate revenue for the state compared to how we generate revenue from the gaming industry."
Crowley's full interview will air on Channel 3 at 7:30 p.m. Saturday.

It has been two-and-a-half years since Miranda Lambert divorced Blake Shelton, but there still seems to be some bad blood between the former couple. New reports claims that they still get under each other's skin, and Lambert "can't stand" her ex's high-profile romance with Gwen Stefani. So, how will she react if Blake Shelton proposes to Gwen Stefani on Valentine's Day?
That there is still animosity between the former couple and it is all because Shelton parades his relationship with Stefani around for the world to see. An insider claims that seeing Shelton happy with his hot girlfriend "burns" Lambert.
"I do this thing called whatever I want" pic.twitter.com/C3TawRy5FW
— Miranda Lambert (@mirandalambert) February 7, 2018
The insider went on to say that Shelton and Lambert have traded scathing messages, and she has accused him of using Stefani to make her jealous. But, Shelton allegedly responds that Stefani has everything that Lambert doesn't.
It seems the former couple may be still throwing jabs at each other even though they have both moved on to happy relationships.
Shelton and Stefani have been together since late 2015, and Lambert has been with Anderson East for about the same amount of time.
Lambert did take a shot at her ex during a recent concert on her Livin' Like Hippies tour. During her song Little Red Wagon, she changed the lyric "I live in Oklahoma" (which is where Shelton is from and where they lived while they were married) to "I got the hell out of Oklahoma."
Shelton quickly hit back. While performing at Luke Bryan's Crash My Playa festival in Mexico, he covered George Strait's hit All My Exes Live in Texas. Of course, Lambert is from Texas.

— 92.3 WCOL (@923WCOL) January 25, 2018
The country superstar may still be feuding with his ex, but that hasn't kept him from enjoying his time with Stefani and her boys. Shelton, Stefani, and her kids, Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo, attended the Super Bowl last weekend, and they looked to be having a great time.
The couple and the kids sat in the stands and watched the Philadelphia Eagles beat the New England Patriots 41-33 to win their first Lombardi Trophy.
Stefani even shared several photos and videos of the day on her Instagram account.
Rumors have also surfaced that one of Shelton's assistants has been shopping for a diamond ring in Beverly Hills. Some believe the I'll Name the Dogs singer is preparing to propose to Stefani on Valentine's Day.
The high-end broker deals expensive, multi-carat, rare diamonds in simple settings, and it is not unheard of for customers to drop half a million dollars on a piece of jewelry in the store.
Could Stefani and Shelton be headed down the altar? Fans will just have to wait and see. But, one thing is for sure, the couple has been quick to share their relationship on social media.
If Blake Shelton does pop the question to Stefani, they will surely let everyone know as soon as it happens, and there is no telling just how Miranda Lambert will react to the news.

The History of the IEP
A little look in the history of the Individual Education Plan also known as IEP.
The IEP, needs to contain several very specific and detailed things. It should clearly explain the best way that the student learns, the way or ways that the student shows his or her full potential, and how best to support and encourage his or her educational goals.
The IEP, can be modified whenever necessary as long as all parties are advised of the modifications and agree with them. In addition to the school curriculum, also in most IEP's is what is referred to as a Behavioral Plan. This is a legally binding contract between the student, parents, school or school district staff, Mental Health Counselors, Pediatricians and Physicians. If this is not followed by one or more people involved in this contract, it can be looked at in a Court of Law and depending on if any part of the contract was violated, charges could be filed by any member or members of the contract. Upon determining that the student is a good candidate for the IEP, the school has thirty days to develop the individual student's IEP.

Will Joe secure one of the NFL's biggest rising stars? Will Ricky find a way to smooth things over with Alonzo? Can Spence find a way to get through to Vernon? Most importantly did a married man forasake his vows and welcome temptation into his life? Here's what you need to know about last week's Ballers before tonight's all new epsiode of Ballers.
Victor Cruz made good on his promise and had a sit down with Joe (Rob Corddry) and Spence (Dwayne Johnson). Will the guys land Cruz and add him to their growing roster of super star atheletes? I sure hope so cuz Cruz is #TheMan. Vernon Littlefield ( Donavon W. Carter) blows up Spence's phone and it turns out he needs help. Remember that corporate event the guys through two episodes back? Turns out one of the hotties at the party took images of Vernon smoking weed and hanging around with hookers and is threatening to sell if she doesn't get NICELY compensated. The guys get to work and end up making offer, but the number doesn't impress her lawyer who's asking for half a million. That's one EXSPENSIVE ouch! Looks like Vernon's career and finances could both take a hit if these pictures are made public.
Meanwhile Ricky (John David Washington) is still trying to find a way to squash the beef Alonzo (Antoine Harris) has with him since finding out Ricky was dickmatizing his mom. He offers to pay for a day a strippers and booze, but Alonzo goes too far in trying to milk it and winds up getting caught having sex in the back of his jeep. Lucky for him the cop that was arresting him is a HUGE fan of Ricky's and agrees to do him a favor by not making the arrest. Too bad for Alonzo the cop is a family friend of Ricky's and thanks to their plan Alonzo has finally stopped with his shit. SMART play Ricky, glad to see you using your head for a change.
Now onto Charles Greane (Omar Miller) who continues to be tempted by the sexy woman he danced with at the corporate event. She's already sent him sexy pictures, now she's upped her game and sent a video of her bare ass popping her booty. The temptation has Charles fantasizing about sleeping with the beauty, but his heart and commitment to his wife continue to interrupt his sex dreams. Unfortunately for Greane his wife (Jazmyn Simon) ends up finding out when she sees an email he sent to himself that contained the booty video. They get into a fight and Charles walks out. Will their marriage be ok? I sure hope so because I like them as a couple. Tune in tonight for an all new episode as Ballers airs Sundays at 10pm on HBO.

The imagination of a child is a wonderful, magical thing. As my daughter grows older, I sometimes can't help but just watch her play, listen to the stories she comes up with, the scenarios she invents for her toys and dolls. I have noticed the ability she has to create grand ideas and worlds with her mind, totally losing herself in them with a look of joy in her eyes that words can't describe. Even if I had the worst day at work, when I walk in the house and see her playing with 20 different toys at once, doing a different voice for each without even skipping a beat, all is right in the world.
This was my second viewing of My Neighbor Totoro, but something about this time felt totally different and new to me. I connected with it on a far greater level, striking a chord in me that I didn't notice during my debut screening. I felt emotional throughout, whether it be a smile I couldn't get rid of or tears from watching a child lost and alone. I felt a deep compassion for the father, something I don't recall experiencing before. He is a man with a lot on his plate, moving into a new home with his two daughters while his wife, their mother, is ill in the hospital, yet he still takes the time to ensure they are having fun, encouraging their imaginations to not only exist but to flourish in new and exciting ways.
I love this film, quite possibly one of, if not the greatest achievement in the history of animated films. My Neighbor Totoro may technically feature a simple story, but it's message is meaningful, touching and important. Sometimes a Father can do everything he can to be there for his kids, but it still isn't enough. Sometimes a friend who shares no blood can step in and fill their lives with love and warmth, but even so something is missing.
Sometimes a child just needs a Totoro.

A series of workshops, and one-to-one/team support, to up-skill staff in the South Yorkshire Local Authorities in relation to the commissioning of health services that better meet the needs of black and minority ethnic patients and thereby help reduce ethnic inequalities in healthcare experiences and health outcomes. These workshops and support will be initially focused on staff involved in JSNA production and then extended to other council portfolios via Public Health staff. The workshops and support sessions will promote the use of a range of tools already developed by the Evidence & Ethnicity in Commissioning project (www.eeic.org.uk) which has been funded by SDO in 2010 and adopted within the CLAHRC Inequalities Theme portfolio. The work will link closely with other EEiC follow on work planned in Leeds and Bradford.

Oh nein, und es ist auch nicht moralisch und trotzdem war er in der Lage diese Fahnen vor sich her zu tragen und hat damit auf die Fundamentalisten Eindruck gemacht.
Hier dazu ein leserbrief:
If "moral values" trump other considerations in the minds of the voters, then language has been emptied of all meaning.
How moral is it for a president and a vice president who have not been in combat to start a war, based on twisted evidence, that has led to the deaths of innocent Iraqis and more than 1,100 American military service members?
How moral is it for us to walk away from the Geneva Convention and sanction torture of prisoners, without penalty to those higher-ups who authorized such tactics?
How moral is it to pollute the environment, or to underfinance the much touted No Child Left Behind law? To intrude on private life choices or withhold funds from global efforts to assist poor women in family planning?
How moral is it to hamper scientific research that may carry benefits for all, or to practice fiscal policies that favor the privileged, or that so many are unprotected by health insurance?
This is moral bankruptcy at best and examples of the sad truth that under this administration language does not reflect reality, but rather creates it.

To the Editor:
Before today, people here and abroad could blame the Bush administration. After today, it is the American people who are responsible.
Frank Mitchell
Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 3, 2004
But while Americans between the ages of 18 to 24 comprise more than 13 percent of the voting-age population, this demographic segment represented fewer than one in 10 voters on Tuesday. Far more Americans in this age group did not vote than did vote.
They are about to get a cruel civics lesson: the vote you didn't cast today could haunt you for the rest of your life.
Four more years of this administration means more outsized deficits and a deepening of the national debt, more ill-advised decisions in the international arena, a gutting of environmental protections and the appointment of one or more archconservative Supreme Court justices.
Young Americans, and their elders, will be reminded that in a democracy, voters don't always get what they need or even what they want (witness the popular vote for Al Gore four years ago), but they usually get what they deserve.
David Alexander
Powell, Ohio, Nov. 3, 2004
UND DANN NOCH DIE GEGENSEITE, die die geschichte unserer Vorväter nicht verstanden hat. Die würden sich nämlich im Grabe umdrehen:
In a contentious campaign that pitted Democratic celebrity pop culture against Republican old-fashioned values, the choice was easy. We, the children of immigrants, know why our Grampa emigrated to America from Norway at age 17 with his carpentry tools in hand.
In this country, the call of opportunity is strong, the voice of freedom is clear, the words of faith are true and George W. Bush speaks our language.
Character counts.

The facility would be within walking distance of our school, child-care centers, and many homes and parks. I am not here to debate the legal or moral implications of marijuana use. My focus is on responsible zoning. I simply do not think that a heavily populated, residential neighborhood is an appropriate place for such a facility. I am concerned about the potential harm such a facility would cause my neighborhood. I am concerned over increase in crime and the effects on neighborhood health from air pollution. Our neighborhood is being specifically singled out by name in the proposed zoning ordinance, and we are rightfully upset over that. This facility belongs in industrial areas with other factories. Our neighborhood does not want to be a test case for marijuana zoning. We do not want to become a cautionary tale for irresponsible zoning ordinances. — Virginia M. Onu, Redmond Proposed marijuana production facility defies common sense I am a concerned father of two young children, who has lived in Redmond Ridge for the past seven years. There is a proposal and fast-track approach to locate at least two marijuana production and processing factories within the highly dense neighborhoods of Redmond Ridge and Redmond Ridge East. The proposed location is close to an overflowing elementary school, a preschool, county playgrounds, nature trails, wetlands and facilities built primarily for young children and young families. While the matter is not about marijuana itself, it is about where that substance should be produced. I would like the Metropolitan King County Council to spare our young children. Please do not single out the Redmond Ridge area for marijuana production. Instead, invest in education and jobs. — Sai Ramanath, Redmond Comments | More in Marijuana | Topics: marijuana

Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) March 11, 2014
Scotty McCreery, a North Carolina native, will perform along with The Fray at the Kentucky Derby Festival on May 2nd before the official start of the Kentucky Derby. McCreery has risen in the country music world after winning the 10th American Idol competition in 2011. His rise in popularity has made him a hot commodity for many performances, including the Kentucky Derby Festival in May 2014. (discover.kdf.org, Feb 24, 2014)
During the two weeks leading up to the famous Kentucky Derby, thousands of people from all over the world arrive to partake in a whirlwind of special events and delicious food. The festival is a grand event and is recognized the world over. McCreery has now become part of this proud tradition through his superb music skills. It all started locally in his home state of North Carolina with his smaller victories leading to his much larger one with American Idol.
"His singing would land him early fame as he performed around the state in numerous local events and later on, he would go on to winning some of these events, including a singing contest called 'Clayton Idol' in the town of Clayton, North Carolina and another contest called 'Rip the Hallways' where he would beat 36 other teenage finalists for the victory. While admittedly small when compared to his future victories, Scotty's local victories in these small contests would pave the way to his destiny: stardom and national fame," (Scotty's Early History: Scotty McCreery Official Site, July 8, 2013).
McCreery's musical talents developed as a child, which is the best time for learning music and rhythms just like it is for language. Music is a fundamental aspect of society and is extremely popular amongst all age groups. There are many different roles a musician can take based on what instrument they are playing and the type or genre of music.
"Every child should have the opportunity to shine just like local Scotty McCreery did in his appearance on American Idol," exclaims Bill Cuthrell of Progressive Music Center. "Through perseverance and hard work, McCreery developed his singing talent, starting at a young age. Other North Carolina and national youth have the opportunity to succeed in the music world by enhancing their skills with the help of professional instructors."
Kids should take the opportunity to learn as much as they can about music. This could mean songwriting, playing both guitar and piano, and performing in front of a life audience or in a studio.
"There are so many ways to be successful in the musical world. Scotty McCreery did that by following his dream and using his impressive singing talents. Dreams for other youth might include mastering the flute or forming a band with friends. Music doesn't have to be limited to one instrument or a competition. I encourage people of all ages and from all walks of life to find what they love about music and pursue it to the best of their ability," says Cuthrell in Thought Economics. (Thought economics, March 8, 2013)

Tile can be found in many shapes and forms across Contra Costa County. Homeowners put it to use as flooring, shower tiling, backsplashes, patios, and even coffee table coasters. Its versatility is one of the things we at Floor Coverings International Concord love about tile. There are many different material and style options available, but one very popular type of tile that we'll look at today is porcelain. Known for its heightened durability and affordability, there are many things that make porcelain tile a great choice for homes in the Concord, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, & Martinez, CA area.
About Porcelain Tile
Porcelain is actually a subtype of ceramic tile, both of which are some of the most popular types found in Concord homes. It's essentially ceramic tile that has been fired at higher temperatures to increase its density and enhance its durability. Although designed more for commercial applications because of its strength, porcelain tile's infinite design potential has made it equally popular for residential use.
Benefits & Uses of Porcelain Tile
There are many benefits of choosing porcelain tile for your home. One of them is porcelain is denser and less porous than ceramic, making it more resistant to stains and moisture. This makes it great for bathrooms and kitchens, as well as other areas of the home that come into frequent contact with water. Porcelain is also more resistant to scratches, making it suitable for high-traffic areas. Another benefit of porcelain is it offers a seemingly endless number of design possibilities. You can achieve nearly any color, pattern, or finish you want. Its style versatility combined with its durability makes it a desirable flooring material that fits well into a diversity of environments.
Schedule Your Free Consultation
If you're looking for an affordable tile flooring or backsplash material, porcelain might be a great option to consider. It's durable, practical, and looks great. To get started, contact Floor Coverings International Concord today and schedule a free in-home design consultation. We'll help you find the perfect solution for your next project!

Keep Your Trees Healthy While They Bring You Summer Shade
Do you know how to properly care for your trees during the summer season? The hot, direct sunlight that is so common in the summer months can be hard on the trees you need for shade. The occasional harsh summer storm can cause your trees stress as well.
Tyler Woody, a certified arborist for FirstEnergy, offers some tips to ensure your summertime tree care is beneficial and easy, leaving you time to relax and enjoy your summer days.
While routine pruning usually does help to maintain the health and strength of your trees, it is not always safe to prune your trees during the summer. In fact, the decision to prune or not to prune depends on the type or extent of the cutting.
Light pruning, such as the removal of dead or damaged wood, can be done during any season, including summer. So, if you notice some dead ends or damaged branches from a storm, trimming them off is okay.
However, extensive trimming or cutting should wait until the late fall to early springtime. The tree is dormant during this period, so pruning won't cause much stress. Also, insects and disease organisms are less active, which means the likelihood of tree infection is a lot lower.
Tyler also provides some summer tips on mulching, which offers many benefits.
Mulch helps the soil around the tree maintain moisture by slowing down the evaporation process. This can be especially beneficial during the summer when higher temperatures cause the soil to retain less water. In addition to looking good, mulch also helps prevent weed growth.
When picking out a mulch, make sure to choose one with an organic base. Be careful not to mulch too close to the tree's trunk, as this could cause root problems. Instead, lay the mulch right outside where the trunk meets the ground. After that, you can spread your mulch bed as far away from the tree as you like.
If you are looking for a professional to help keep your trees healthy, strong and beautiful in any season, your FirstEnergy utility company can be of service. Click here to book a free consultation, or to learn more about FirstEnergy's Professional Tree Services.

Luke 1:39-44 New Living Translation (NLT)
Mary Visits Elizabeth
39 A few days later Mary hurried to the hill country of Judea, to the town 40 where Zechariah lived. She entered the house and greeted Elizabeth. 41 At the sound of Mary's greeting, Elizabeth's child leaped within her, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
42 Elizabeth gave a glad cry and exclaimed to Mary, "God has blessed you above all women, and your child is blessed. 43 Why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should visit me? 44 When I heard your greeting, the baby in my womb jumped for joy.

Apple's New Products
January 19, 2018
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
On September 12, 2017, Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, shook the ground in a small Californian city called Cupertino, you might of heard of it. He was holding a Keynote Event in the brand new Steve Jobs Theater, a monument in memoriam for the late Steve Jobs. He announced the arrival of three new Apple products, the Apple Watch Series 3, the iPhone 8, and the highly anticipated iPhone X.
The Apple Watch Series 3
Tim Cook started his presentation for Apple Watch by stating that the watch has now become the number one brand watch in the United States. He continued by giving and showing a movie and saying speech about how the Apple Watch has helped so many people, i.e. athletes, models, diabetics, and even senior citizens. Then he started on the new updates in Apple Watch Series 3. Their new slogan for Apple Watch Series 3 is "Freedom Calls." The new Apple Watch Series 2 was water resistant, but now it's processor is fully waterproof for up to 50 feet underwater. With the old Apple Watch, you needed your phone nearby to make a call or text, but now with the updated version, it has built in cellular and GPS. You can leave your phone at home and still be connected, getting notifications from your favorite apps. In addition, Apple Music is now connected to your watch and you can stream up to 40 million songs on your wrist. The Apple Watch Series 3 now has more exercise modes, including rowing, swimming, hiking, biking, and using an elliptical machine. The new watch now will give you motivation when you need it as a goal to close your three rings. It also comes with the new apps, Drink and Breathe. The Drink app simply alerts you when it detects dehydration in your system, and the Breathe app is a meditation app to help you relax and sleep. Lastly, the Apple Watch Series 3 comes with new colored sports bands, multi colored Nike+ bands, and introduces the Sport Loop, a velcro strap that connects to your watch to make it easier to use in addition to new watch faces from the Toy Story movie.
The iPhone 8
The iPhone 8 is the newest addition to the iPhone family with a slogan of "A Giant Leap for iPhone." Let's start with the design. It is now made completely out of a very durable glass and comes in three colors; Silver, Gold, and Space Gray. Because of the glass backing, the iPhone 8 now enables, wait for it, Wireless Charging. You don't even need to take the case off your phone. When your juice is low, you just put your phone on a pad and it will start to charge. As expected, the iPhone 8 comes with a better camera, Portrait mode on the Selfie side, and now with a new feature called Portrait Lighting. Portrait Lighting is a new mode on Portrait mode that enables different lighting. When you take a photo, it can give the illusion of contour light, studio light, stage light, and stage light mono. These effects are extremely realistic and are predicted to change the solo-photography world. The iPhone 8 now has a new chip inside of it, the A11 Bionic. It is the most powerful chip in a smartphone. Ever. It grants a brighter display, a faster CPU, Power Efficiency, an Apple Designed GPU, and Augmented Reality, plus some more things with long names that I don't know what they mean.
The iPhone X
The iPhone X is clearly the most anticipated device of the four. It now has a new display that all screen, getting rid of the home button and side bar. It has an OLED screen that has an incredible contrast ratio, and it is now water proof up to 50 feet underwater. Because there is no home button, the iPhone X uses several gestures to function. "How to you go to your home page," you might ask, well you just simply swipe up. But then, how do you get to control center? Well, you simply swipe down from the right. And what about Siri? You just hold down the off button. Now with no home button, there is no thumbprint recogniser. In its place, there is now Face ID. Face ID is a relatively new piece of technology that Apple implemented into its new phone. You just hold your phone near your face, and it will unlock! You can now use Face ID for things like Apple Pay, and other third party payment apps. In addition, the iPhone X has portrait mode on both the back, and the front, so you can now take a portrait selfie. Similar to the iPhone 8, it has Portrait Lighting. One new and exciting feature that is new to the iPhone X is the new program, Animojis. In summary, Apple used the technology with Face ID to make Animojis, which are emojis that you can control with your face. When you smile, the emoji smiles. When you frown, the emoji frowns. You can even stick out your tongue and the emoji will stick out its tongue. These just a few glances of the iPhone X, but Tim Cook said that they were going to still keep some aspects of the iPhone X a surprise. With the release date soon, we are coming closer and closer to finding out the full power of the iPhone X.

Protect Your Galaxy S 4 against Malware
Malware is always present in the form of apps for the Galaxy S 4. One of the main attractions for application developers to write apps for Android is that Google doesn't have an onerous preapproval process for a new app to be placed in the Play Store. This is unlike the Apple App Store or Microsoft Windows Phone Store, where each derivation of an app is validated.
Many developers prefer to avoid bureaucracy. At least in theory, this attracts more developers to do more stuff for Android phones.
However, this approach does expose users to the potential for malware that can, inadvertently or intentionally, do things that are not advertised. Some of these "things" may be minor annoyances, or they could really mess things up.
Market forces, in the form of negative feedback, are present to kill apps that are badly written or are meant to steal your private data. However, this works only after some poor soul has experienced problems — such as theft of personal information — and reported it.
Rather than simply avoiding new apps, you can download apps to protect the information on your phone. These are available from many of the firms that make antivirus software for your PC. Importantly, many of these antivirus applications are free. If you want a nicer interface and some enhanced features, you can pay a few dollars, but this is not necessary.
Examples include NG Mobile Security and Antivirus, Lookout Security and Antivirus, Kaspersky Mobile Security, and Norton Security Antivirus. If you have inadvertently downloaded an app that includes malicious software, these apps will stop that app.

Figure 8 (album)
|Figure 8
|Studio album by
|April 18, 2000
|Elliott Smith chronology
|Singles from Figure 8
Figure 8 is the fifth studio album by American singer-songwriter Elliott Smith, and the final album he completed before his death. It was recorded from 1998 to 2000 at numerous studios and released on April 18, 2000 through DreamWorks Records. Preceded by the singles "Happiness" and "Son of Sam", Figure 8 was Smith's second release on a major label.
Figure 8 was recorded at Sunset Sound in Hollywood, Sonora Studios in Los Angeles, Capitol Studios in Hollywood and Abbey Road Studios in London.[2] Initially titled Place Pigalle, after the square in Paris, the title is thought to be taken from a song by Schoolhouse Rock!;[3] Smith covered this song, but it did not make the final track listing. Regarding the album's title, Smith said in a May 11, 2000 article in Boston Herald:
I liked the idea of a self-contained, endless pursuit of perfection. But I have a problem with perfection. I don't think perfection is very artful. But there's something I liked about the image of a skater going in this endless twisted circle that doesn't have any real endpoint. So the object is not to stop or arrive anywhere; it's just to make this thing as beautiful as they can.[4]
Smith described the songs on the album as "more fragmented and dreamlike".[5]
Cover photo[edit]
The wall Smith stands in front of in Autumn de Wilde's photograph on the cover of the album exists in Los Angeles, and since his death it has become a memorial to him. It is located at 4334 W. Sunset Boulevard, which is a store by the name of Solutions Audio-Video Repair, just east of the intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Fountain Avenue. It has at some stages been covered with written messages containing lyrics and personal messages to Smith, as well as displaying a stencil of Smith in order to mimic the photo on the album cover.[6] It is regularly graffiti-ed over, followed by regular restorations from fans.[7] In 2017, the wall was partially destroyed in the opening of a shop located inside the building the wall is apart of. Despite this, the area found on the album cover is still largely intact.[8]
The album's first single, "Happiness", was released on February 8, 2000. CMJ New Music Report wrote, "While the tune's production recalls the shimmer of XO, it possesses curiously upbeat energy atypical for Smith".[9] This was followed by the album's second and final single, "Son of Sam", on April 11. A music video was released for "Son of Sam", directed by Autumn de Wilde.[10]
Figure 8 was released on April 18.[11] It peaked at number 99 on the Billboard 200.[12]
The Japanese release of this album included Smith's cover of The Beatles' song "Because" from the movie American Beauty and "Figure 8", an abridged cover of a Schoolhouse Rock! song.[13]
The promotional CD for Figure 8 featured cover artwork by Mike Mills, director of Thumbsucker.[14] Smith contributed songs to the Thumbsucker soundtrack.
As of 2004, it has sold 185,000 copies in United States.[15]
The track "L.A." was included on the soundtrack for the 2009 game Guitar Hero 5.
Critical reception[edit]
|Professional ratings
|Aggregate scores
|Review scores
|Entertainment Weekly
|The Guardian
|Los Angeles Times
|Melody Maker
|Rolling Stone
Figure 8 was well received by critics. NME called it "Smith's best effort to date".[22] Spin wrote, "The record is not a disappointment, it's a progression."[16] The A.V. Club wrote, "Figure 8 is even better [than previous records], a strong collection of lush, densely arranged power-pop [...] and inimitably intimate ballads".[26]
AllMusic was more critical, writing, "Even if it is a very impressive statement overall, Figure 8 isn't quite the masterpiece it wants to be".[17] Pitchfork, too, opined, "Figure 8, ultimately, isn't as good a record as XO or Either/Or, though the man's not out of the picture yet."[23] Trouser Press called it "a record that feels very different from its predecessors", describing its style as "brisk and busy, up front and confident, upbeat. While nothing here fails the consistent artistry of his work, neither does any of it make the direct connection to a soul and heart."[27]
In 2009, Pitchfork placed Figure 8 at number 190 on its list of the 200 greatest albums of the 2000s, noting, "Not quite as intimate as his earliest records and not quite brash and bombastic like its immediate predecessor, Figure 8 marks a subtle refinement of Smith's songwriting skills" and calling it "one of Smith's most accessible and enjoyable records".[28] Rolling Stone placed it at number 42 on their list of the 100 greatest albums of the decade, calling it Smith's "haunted high-water mark".[29] Figure 8 was ranked 86th on The Guardian's 100 Best Albums of the 21st Century list, based on a 2019 poll of music writers.[30] The album was also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.[31]

Plaintiffs suing the state of California over a 2016 law that allowed the High-Speed Rail Authority to tap a $9.9 billion bond measure, passed by voters a decade ago to pay for construction on "usable segments," came up short for the second time.
The Sacramento Bee
For the second time at the same railroad crossing in Atherton, California, a motorist followed his GPS navigation onto Caltrain tracks. In both cases, the motorists fled their vehicles before being hit by an oncoming train.
(Palo Alto) Daily Post
At their July 7 meeting, the Caltrain Joint Powers Board, a 3-county body that administers the crowded San Jose-to-San Francisco commuter rail line, unanimously approved $1.25 billion in contracts to rail and infrastructure firms for electrification.
Streetsblog SF
The Surface Transportation Board's denial of Caltrain's request to provide an exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act gives the go ahead to the Town of Atherton's lawsuit requesting the rail board redo its Environmental Impact Report.
The Daily Journal
Florida's private inter-city rail project is getting a taste of California-style rail opposition from two counties that responded to citizens' complaints by voting to allot $4.1 million for potential legal action against rail line.
The Palm Beach Post
Both sides have been awaiting this ruling, which left Gov. Jerry Brown and the High Speed Rail Authority greatly pleased: the appeals court ruling releases $9.9 billion of 2008 voter-approved bond funding, though other court battles loom.
The Fresno Bee
It was the first of many lawsuits to hit the HSRA. Menlo Park and Atherton, joined later by Palo Alto - three adjoining cities on the San Mateo County/Santa Clara County border, among the wealthiest in the nation, sued in 2008 to reroute the train.
San Jose Mercury News
There's been a change at the top of Forbes' annual list of America's most expensive zip codes, writes Morgan Brennan. For the first time ever, a neighborhood in New York City tops the list.
Three neighboring Peninsula cities scored a major victory in court by forcing the CA High Speed Rail Authority to reopen and revise the environmental document for the San Jose to San Francisco segment that they had hoped was finally completed.
Palo Alto Online News
It was to be expected. After the first lawsuit was dismissed, the plaintiff's attorney warned that the revised environmental document was inadequate. Menlo Park and Atherton were joined by Palo Alto as well as some non-profits.
Daily News via Silicon Valley Mercury News
A judge has overruled challenges from two northern California cities over the siting of the state's proposed high speed rail line. Environmental studies can now move forward.
San Jose Business Journal
A group of cities in the San Francisco Bay Area are going to file a lawsuit next month over the chosen route for California's planned high speed rail route between the Bay Area and Southern California.
The San Francisco Examiner
