TonyaTko's Sad About The State Of Race; I'm Not
2008-06-30 03:35:00 I just read TonyaTko's blog where she's sad about the state of race. I think what she's talking about is racial self-hatred, and I do agree that it does seem to be alive and well. But I'm hopeful in that it's not as widespread in my experience and I feel that digital media can play a role in repairing the problem.

With Monsoon, Kerala wants tourists too to hit the state
2008-06-10 07:53:00 Come monsoon and the God's own country is blessed with nature's bounty. Tourists arrivals during this beautiful season, however, dwindle.The state now has redrawn its strategies and has begun promoting the rainy season as 'Dream season'.In an innovative way to promote the state as all season destination, the 'Dream season' campaign was drawn up, says Tourism secretary, Dr V Venu. The state is targetting a 10 per cent increase in tourist arrivals this season compared to last year.The unique programme, kicked off last year was well received. "We are evolving as we go," Dr Venu told PTI. This is a tactical campaign during offseason combining monsoon and the lean period which begins in May and lasts till September, he said.The main thrust of the campaign is to position the state as a value for money destination. "During this time there will be intense competition from other destinations. We want the industry to offer better deals to the tourists and sweaten the proposal with many ...
Hunter speaks about the MDM and the state of the wrestling business
2008-06-10 02:33:00 Some quotes from the interview:...Next to sit with us was Triple H. Uber-friendly and modest, Hunter was asked right off the bat who his pick was: Celtics or Lakers? Hunter picked the Celtics since he now lives in New Hampshire, but then added this:"You know I don't follow sports. I'm so busy. I'm like the only guy in our entire locker room that doesn't. I have no idea what everyone's talking about when they talk about these games. But just out of hometown loyalty, you gotta go with the Celtics, right?" But, still admittedly, Hunter is no sports fanatic."It's a little embarrassing sometimes, like I went to the Red Sox one time and they had me throw out the first pitch of the game, and I had to bring my nephew because he's a huge baseball fan. I had to have him stand next to me and then everyone who came over I was like whispering to him, 'who's this guy?'"..."You know what, if you're a fan of our business, a fan of what we do, you tune in and you watch our product and you...

Gays, God, and Government: Self-righteousness in the State Capitols
2008-05-30 14:07:00 by Walter Brasch The mantra of almost all conservatives—it makes no difference what political party they belong to—is to keep government out of their lives. But, they don’t mind government interference when it plays to their biases and bigotry. For example, it’s perfectly acceptable for the government to enter one’s bedroom if the purpose is to ban homosexual activity and—horrors!—gay marriage. In Pennsylvania, political conservatives and religious fundamentalists thought the existing state law against same-sex marriage was vulnerable to a constitutional challenge, and wanted something more permanent—a constitutional amendment to “preserve” the sanctity of marriage. Having heard the call—and an opportunity to score with his constituents— State Sen. John Gordner unleashed his horse and charged into battle, thrusting his sword of righteousness into every hole that could allow for same-sex marriage. The proposed amendment sailed through the judiciary and app...
Will the Storm in the State House Doom a Special Session?
2008-05-30 01:25:00 Is Governor Steve Beshear's (D) apparent move to call a special session of the Kentucky General Assembly a wise move, seeing that a hurricane is coming in the State House? I would think the Governor is wise enough to test the waters, as he is apparently doing, instead of calling an extraordinary session with out legislative input. Now we have a war in the House and a Speaker that has publicly announced his support for a challenger, a very unorthodox move by Richards. If anyone is questioning the disarray that exists within the House leadership will certainly be convinced, especially during an overtime bitch fest which would certainly be the result of a special session of this assembly. I have enjoyed my little vacation from blogging and I want to do something a little different. Lets see who has the skills to truly handicap Kentucky politics. I would say the probability of a successful special session in pretty thin, a long-shot at best. 100 to 1 or a 1% chance of a successfu...

The State of Education in the State of Our Nation
2008-05-26 18:43:00 Former Colorado Gov. Roy Romer is the chairman of "Ed in '08"--a project that received $60 million to try to make education a prominent issue in the race for the White House. In a recent radio interview, he acknowledged that, even though it is of central importance to our children and to the nation, it has been difficult to get candidates to talk about education. It keeps being pushed into the background by issues of the economy, health care and the war. But the project has lots of valuable things to say about ways to fix our schools and strengthen the economy. Those who want to keep up with the state of education today can turn to http://www.edin08.com/
What exactly is the state of home building?
2008-05-26 06:27:00 I was asked straight up Friday - "what exactly is happening in home building?"Here's what I know right now. 2007 was horrible because costs went up, margins plummeted and the mortgage industry self destructed. For our own company last year this meant that multiple buyers were told at the last minute that they couldn't buy a house because the mortgage company was gone!Multiply this across hundreds of builders in NW Indiana, and you have quite a bit of inventory sitting through the winter that should have been sold and lived in last year.Now, what's happening today? The market is actually stabilizing. Mortgage Companies, like our favorite First Financial Trust Mortgage Company, are continuing to rebuild and retool for an era that will feature a lot more FHA loans than the last ten years.You can still buy a house, with no money down as long as you have decent credit. If you don't have decent credit, there are reputable consultants that can help you rebuild your credit. It may...

The State: E-mails, letters show depth of Sanford involvement
2008-05-26 05:47:00 THE STATE NEWSPAPER SHEDS NEW LIGHT ON GOVERNOR’S ‘ACTIVE ROLE’ IN DEVELOPMENT DEALS According to e-mails and letters obtained by The State newspaper under the Freedom of Information Act, Gov. Mark Sanford was “involved heavily” in multiple development deals between the state and contractors — something that critics claim usurps the bidding process laid out by state law — the latest of which was the sale of Port Royal. But if you read The Palmetto Scoop, which broke that story three months ago, you already knew that. The newspaper said the documents showed Sanford personally thanked local residents who wrote letters to the editor supporting his approach to developing the land, looked to help local shrimpers who worried their business will be harmed by development plans, and apologized to a campaign contributor and bidder for the land whose ties to the governor were the subject of news stories. That campaign contributor, as TPS first reported...

Crop Progress in the Chippewa Valley is behind the rest of the state
2008-05-20 19:17:00 The Capital Times reports:"The Wisconsin Crop Progress report released Monday said corn planting is 56 percent complete, soybean planting is 22 percent complete and oats planting is 83 percent complete."Spring tillage is progressing at full force with 66 percent complete, but some counties are still slow because of excessively wet soils."Counties in the Chippewa Valley region are some of those that are affected by the excessively wet soils that are a result of Wisconsin's wet winter (something I didn't have to experience this year).WEAU reports:"Chippewa County Agriculture Agent, Randy Knapp, says as of last week--local farmers had about 30% of their crop in the ground. By now, he says that number is likely up to 50%. Still, he says those numbers are behind the 10-year average.". . ."Still agriculture agents say it?s important to remember ? there?s a whole growing season ahead of us."'It's a bit cool yet, but we can make this up in June, July and August,' said Knapp."On the fli...
Embryology Bill and the state of Scientific morality/ethics!
2008-05-20 10:28:00 BBC NEWS | Politics | MPs to vote on abortion limit cut The Link above takes you to the details about the bill from the usually biased BBC website. Here is a link from another point of view that details why in particular stopping Animal-Human hybrids, the threat of 'spare part children' and Fatherless families and Abortion Limit reduction are so important. At least David Cameron is voting to drop the 24 week limit and Ian Duncan Smith is behind wanting to keep the requirement for a Father with IVF. Mr Brown on the other hand is voting yes on all of them. How can a man who professes to be a Christian support this Act. The Hybrid arguments that support the creation of Animal-Human hybrid creation just highlights to me where evolutionary thinking leads. If we are just a cosmic accident and here by pure chance then there is no basis for morality. An argument that sticks dogmatically to the point that it 'may' help develop cures for diseases is missing a huge side. W...

South Lake Tahoe Keys Real Estate: The State of the Tahoe Keys Real Estate
2008-05-16 17:11:00 Buying Opportunities: The Good, The Better, and the Bountiful about South Lake Tahoe’s premiere neighborhood, The Tahoe Keys. (Update: In the time it took us to mount this post today, a Tahoe Keys home has closed. It is the first sale of 2008. We’ll update that here, and comment on it in a subsequent post in a few hours. Otherwise it will not affect the buying opportunities this article explores.) There’s been much about the Tahoe Keys in our two posts below. One has to do with an agent taking exception to us reporting that there have been no 2008 sales to date in our premiere South Lake Tahoe neighborhood (read it here). The post above gave rise to the post immediately below this one (read it here). This article discusses in detail the importance to the South Lake Tahoe real estate market of reporting real estate data that’s both accurate and relevant to our area homeowners and potential buyers.

Ward Of The State
2008-05-09 11:46:00 After denying it and enlisting talk radio show listeners to support him, former SF KGO talk radio host and priest Bernie Ward faces five years in the pen for admitting kiddie porn. Ward's lawyer still insists he was merely "play-acting." Au contraire. SF's ABC7 finds Bernie's been a "predator" for years. SF Gate: Bernie Ward, the most prominent liberal voice on Bay Area talk radio for more than two decades, admitted Thursday to distribution of child pornography by e-mail in a plea deal that will send him to federal prison for at least five years. Ward, 57, a former Roman Catholic priest, was a fixture on KGO-AM 810 for three hours every weeknight, known in recent years for his fervent denunciations of President Bush and the war in Iraq during his news talk show. He also hosted "God Talk," a Sunday morning program on religion, and was a prolific fundraiser for the station's charity drives.Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe at one point Ward and/or his surrogates suggested Ge...

War in the State House
2008-05-09 00:54:00 Earlier today Rep. Susan Westrom (D) blasted the House leadership to Mars in an email that seemingly started a new and wonderful war between rank and file members and the so called House leadership. What will be the result of this bad blood? Speaker Stumbo? I am currently trying to get a few opinions from other House members and so far no one wants to talk. House Majority Whip Rob Wilkey is out, Speaker Richards has, very carefully, responded. Now hopefully the press hounds the other House leaders and hopefully gets some reaction. Governor Beshear's plans or probable plans to call a extraordinary session of the Kentucky General Assembly may be on ice for a while, if he calls it anytime within the next 3 or 4 months it will likely be a total waste. This rift is cutting deep into the fabric of the standard quo that has been observed for a decade in the state House and with any rift is left a void and that void must be filled. Now we wait and see how far this goes.

On Land Titles, Property and the State
2008-05-06 08:22:00 From: What is Political Economy Trace the origin of land titles back through the centuries and you will invariably find them based upon force or fraud. While not able to articulate ground rent or the law of rent, sovereigns and would-be rulers recognized ownership of land as the source of wealth and power. As the German sociologist, Franz Oppenheimer, put it so well in his opus THE STATE, they were engaged in the political means for obtaining wealth rather than the economic means. John Locke recognized the distinction between property in land and property in the product of labor. In the Second Treatise on Civil Government he wrote; Though the earth and all inferior creatures be common to all men, yet every man has property in his own person; this nobody has any right to but himself. The labor of his body and the work of his hands we may say are properly his. Whatsoever, then, he removes out of the state that nature hath provided and left it in, he hath mixed hi...

I've completely bombed on my attempt to write a book. Maybe I'll try again, someday. I have a good start on finding a (new) direction. It's hard, though. Everything I once believed in has blown up in my face and I don't even know what I care about anymore. All I really know for sure is that I exist, and that there's a reason for it. Other than that, I haven't a clue. I'm right now just accepting what is. Trying not to judge it as good or bad. (That's a challenge) I'd still like to find love. Someone to share the rest of my life with, but I don't know if that will ever happen. I'm trying to be okay with the fact that it might not. I know that the older I get, the less likely it is to happen...

Only released in Finland at the beginning of 1984, and featuring a certain Dave Kusworth on guitar. (No this blog isn’t turning into a DK appreciation site!) Vinyl copies are very collectable, this download is taken from a tape I recorded from a vinyl copy many, many, many moons ago, hence the dodgy homemade cover and reduced sound quality, but it’s still very, very listenable and a great long lost relic, so if you dig the dogs, it’s just a click away.

But in Turkey, Islamic actors?from the Gülen movement to the pro-Islamist Justice and Development Party?have been able to negotiate the terms of secular liberal democracy. This book explores the socio-political conditions and cultural venues in which Islamic movements cease to confront and start to cooperate with secular states.Though both the Gülen and JP have ambivalent attitudes toward individual freedoms and various aspects of civil society, their continuing engagements with the state have encouraged democracy in Turkey. As they contest issues of education and morality but cooperate in ethnic and gender politics, they redraw the bound...

Can the state force your marital status?
2008-04-22 13:17:00 In this weeks podlets, I rant about my opinions of "common law". I've had very strong opinions on this matter. Way back, when I was first staring my first job. I was chatting with a collegue about university, taxes, etc. The collegue was also very opinionated (or at just trying to yank my chain) about how important it was that I filled my taxes out as common law. Anyway, in this audio podlet, and the article below you can read about my thoughts on the subject, and application of necessary and sufficient conditions for common law status. Hope you enjoy it. One of the debates, I often find myself involved in is the idea of "Common Law" Marriage. First of all, let me clear up the first misconception. Being 'common law' and being 'married' are not the same thing from a legal point of view. There are similarities. In Canada, many couples who have declared themselves as common law are guaranteed similar rights and privileges under the law as married couples. ...

?We don?t need 5,000 more illiterate peasants in the state of Colorado?
2008-04-21 23:01:00 Colorado’s most infamous asspipe, Douglas Bruce, is at it again. Bruce booted after “illiterate” remark By Jessica Fender The Denver Post Disparaging remarks aimed at migrant workers got resident rabble-rouser Rep. Douglas Bruce banned from speaking on an alien worker bill today. “We don’t need 5,000 more illiterate peasants in the state of Colorado,” Bruce, R-Colorado Springs, told the chamber to an audible gasp. Rep. Kathleen Curry, leading the House at the time, immediately barred Bruce from speaking at the podium, an uncommon maneuver. “How dare you?” she asked Bruce, before House members moved back to discussion of a bill aimed at helping seasonal farm workers from other countries enter the state legally on a temporary basis. In case you’re unfamiliar with Bruce, he masterminded Colorado’s notorious Amendment 2 debacle and the state’s disastrous “Taxpayer Bill of Rights” (TABOR). He’s been relat...
