I wrote these letters to the editor below in response to this letter to kgmb editor from Kenneth Conklin This is one I sent to West Hawaii Today In other words, the law of unintended consequences will kick in. If kgmb zoning applies to DHHL lands, less homestead land will be opened up. It will also open up a can of worms,especially since a lot of the DHHL houses are non-conforming or do not comply with county zoning ? Did Mr. Conklin and people supporting this legislation ever contemplate this ? DHHL is currently the only entity building affordable housing in this state.Hence why ill advised legislation imposing kgmb zoning on DHHL land should be rejected. Aaron Stene This is the version I sent to BIW,HIJ, HTH Hawaii County zoning should not apply to DHHL lands. If Hawaii County imposed their zoning regulations on DHHL, it will serious curtail DHHLs ability kgmb be financially self sufficient. Especially since other funding sources are not going to be available forever. In other words, the law of unintended consequences will kick in. If county zoning applies to DHHL lands, less homestead land will be opened up. It will kgmb up a can of worms,especially since kgmb of the DHHL houses are non-conforming or do not comply with county zoning ? Do the people supporting this legislation ever contemplate this ? DHHL is currently the only entity building affordable housing this state.Hence why ill advised legislation imposing county zoning on DHHL land should be rejected. Aaron kgmb />Kailua-Kona |

The deliveryman went back out to the truck and called the supervisor, telling the supervisor how angry wtopnews.com Washington was. Hes looking for a fight, the deliveryman said. Then, both men went in to deal with the bed situation. Keith Washington told them to leave, and as they were allegedly walking out the door, he shot one of them. The other tried to help the first, and also got shot. 3 times. 1 died. Here is the coward cop killer actually having wtopnews.com gall to liken himself to a victim of sexual assault. Yes, those of us who have sympathy against people who are victims of sexual crims are supposed to be feeling for this killer cop. Yea right. Heres some background on cop killer Keith Washington: In court testimony recounted by the Washington Post, Essex recalled the post-accident confrontation with Washington. â€SYou caused this accident!” snarled the officer. â€SThats a decision for the court to to make,” Essex reasonably replied. â€SOut here, I am the court,” declared Washington. When Essex disagreed, Washington placed him wtopnews.com arrest. A mechanic named David Paul Maslousky, who was a passenger in Essexs car, was thrown to the ground and wtopnews.com for â€Shindering” Washington in the performance of his duties, a charge that was later dropped. In 2000, a federal civil jury awarded $260,000 to the plaintiff in the civil rights suit against Washington and county correctional officers. When running for office, this is what cop killer Keith Washington had to saya bout himself: My leadership skills gained from over 20 years as an Army officer, my background in public safety and history of public service in this county. By the way, the campaign mailbox is dist9forkeith@aol.com. Drop them a message. I sent a simple short one: Keith, you are a fucking murderer. You deserve the chair. HERE is an article about the canedelight vigils being held by family. HERE is the one who surviveds recount the incident. HERE is Prince Georges County Executive, Jack Johnson, saying the killer cop should return to his work at the police departmen. the police say this is justified. HERE is an article Loved Ones Remember& People you need to realize we live in a police state, and we are not actuall a free country. The government, and its agents, can and will shoot you anytime, and will get away with it every time. I dont call 911 first. I call my cop buddy first, and claim its a burglary. Here are some other travails of the Prince Georges County Police Deparment; shootings which they have said are justified: In Maryland, officers enjoy immunity from questioning for 10 days following the use of deadly force. This interval can is exploited by corrupt police to creating a consistent cover story. At the beginning of the decade, corruption became so pervasive that the Justice Department put police under FBI scrutiny. Surprisingly, there is so much bad cop news, that the site Bad Cop News has posted around 40 new articles since this happened!! |

[Thank you YBF] This is at the Feel the Noise at the Hennessy Artistry New York concert. Although I camila alves she looks cute, she is always looking the same. Same hair cut, same style of dress, even the same sort of stance and pose. Get a new look boo. Funny how while I was scrolling through the pictures at YBF, I had some sort of subconscious feeling I might see Denise in one of them. lol |

Written by John Bambenek Today I filed an Federal Election Commission (FEC) complaint against Kos Media, LLC., better known as DailyKos.com. I allege that they operate as a political committee and are therefore subject to FEC rules. I dlisted.com thought of this complaint during dlisted.com Cindy Sheehan debacle over at Daily dlisted.com where Cindy pledged to run as an independent against Nancy Pelosi, and the Daily Kos basically turned on her. While some conservatives took great delight dlisted.com this, I really didnt care because its politics as usual. The right has thrown their fair share of people under the bus for not drinking the Kool-aid too. However, the statement that the DailyKos was about electing Democrats stuck with me. I always assumed it was a standard left-wing group blog spouting the latest and greatest in left-wing diatribe. However, the statement that the blog exists to get Democrats elected is repeated in various places around the site, including statements by Kos himself. Federal Election Commission rules apply for organizations that spend or contribute an equivalent of $1,000 per year in trying to influence elections for federal office. DailyKos is owned by Kos Media, a company, which makes it fit the definition of an organization. It surely spends at least $1,000 per year in hosting and based on what they charge (and get) for advertising, their support of candidates is certainly worth over $1,000 per year. Lastly, their self-identified purpose is to influence elections in the Democrats favor. They fit the criteria. [snip] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Thanks to D Throat in the previous thread (see his/her several comments)& for linking to BLog Critics and the Bambenek post& What do you think? FEC should get on the Dkos / Markos ass? I certainly have long thought so.  Further, post 2004 election when Kos declared it a Democratic site, dedicated to the election of Democrats, I was not the one to raise it in threads& several did. I did post there and at LSF he should BANNER that it is a Democratic party aligned site. I say: Be up front. Why [snigger, can guess, FEC issues] Kos and his tied in Blahgs have long been product enhancement, product endorsement scams. In my opinion. I am not have not been a devotee of the site for years (UID 97 dlisted.com an observer, surely) but I can remember housekeeping posts from Markos, to the FP, exhorting Dems in congress to pungle up their mandatory donations to a congressional elections kitty. Names, amounts owed, amounts they have chipped in, etc. Just a job for Rahm. Or Reid and Shumer. He surely organises to influence elections, by his own admission. Go Bambenek. Go for it. ****************************** UPDATE, 9:45 am From the thread, Sabrina Ballerina update, Adam B (who, iirc handled issues of bloggers before the FEC for Kos/aligned blogs) is at the Blog Critics site in debate with Bambenek: Sabrina Ballerina | Adam B arguing his dlisted.com on Bambeneck’s blog: #17 — July 24, 2007 @ 00:22AM — Adam B. John, the â€Sreform” groups explicitly argued before the FEC in the FiredUp case that â€San organization whose dlisted.com purpose is to be the functional equivalent of a partisan campaign organization — to elect Democratic candidates and to solicit contributions for such candidates — does not qualify for the press dlisted.com single commissioner on the FEC rejected this argument, and agreed that FiredUp was indeed a press entity. Moreover, the â€Scompensation” issue only applies to being compensated dlisted.com campaigns for the blogging. The FEC’s explanation of the regulations make clear that even if a campaign paid a blogger to perform technical/consulting services, the blogger’s personal blogging for which he wasn’t being paid didn’t count as a contribution/expenditure. John, I fought long and hard alongside the folks from RedState to get these exemptions in place. The FEC could not have been more clear in 2005-06 as to what the new dlisted.com were. Please read them. ************ #18 — July 24, 2007 @ 00:23AM — John Bambenek [URL] I read the 2005 advisory opinion and it involves a site that doesn’t (unlike Daily Kos) state that their primary purpose is dlisted.com elect Democrats. Marcos is on record, several other editors are on record, and dlisted.com site itself states prominently that the purpose of the Daily Kos is to elect Democrats. They don’t say report news, they don’t say advance an agenda, they say elect Democrats, period. It’s a different situation. You can’t argue that you’re a press outlet, when all over your site you say you’re all about electing a certain political party to office. They are incompatible. And that’s why its different… Fired Up and others are commentary sites and act like it. Daily Kos’s self-identified purpose is to get Democrats elected. It’d be different if they themselves stated they have another agenda, but they come out and admit they act like a PAC… they can’t run and hide simply because they are challenged. This is an interesting comment also …. #47 — July 24, 2007 @ 10:17AM — apetrelli This complaint is based on DailyKos’ efforts at organizing voters, and raising money to further organize voters, for the expressed purpose of electing Democrats. This is not speech, it is clearly the actions and incidents of a political committee. There are grounds distinguishing this from both the advisory opinion and the exemption. Watch DailyKos over the next few days (or at most, weeks) strip all references to â€Üelecting Democrats’ as they attempt to rewrite history. is as DailyKos does. I’m sure is not taking money from the DNC, but all he has to do is disclose dlisted.com he is taking from and end the inquiries … and stop banning people for political discussion …. discussion of all candidates. Why, eg, did they ban Ron Paul diaries? Or Cindy Sheehan candidacy diaries, if their claim is to be a â€Ünews entity’. That is shot down by their banning of any news related to these two political candidates, imo. Be interesting to see the troll patrols waving around their FAQs. Someone in that thread says that Daily Kos never says anywhere that they are there only to elect Dems. Lol! Very bad defense. Thanks to Clonecone’s, Elise’s and their cohorts’ endless waving of the â€Ürules book, it is embedded in the minds of all that that is exactly what they dlisted.com It is chanted like a cult mantra â€ÜThis is a partisan site! Dammit, READ the FAQs etc. etc. Lol. I knew the troll patrols would eventually have some value to someone … looks like the FEC will be pouring over their admonitions to â€Übanned trolls’ or were simply people wanting to discuss politics on a political board? Jul 24, 9:43 End of Sabrinas comment ************ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ |

Chris Lang Sorry. Would have posted sooner, but I stayed out to watch the UK dance team perform at halftime. Its only polite. Those girls work hard. No surprises here. LUs offense looks a touch out of sync. Lots of grinding the shot clock down to 10-12 seconds and settling for a contested look. Anthony Smith is non-existent in the offense. Hes hardly even getting touches. Kentuckys Patrick Patterson is going to be a beast once he learns how to be more aggressive and use his athleticism to his advantage. Kid has a huge wingspan and a nice touch from 10-12 feet. Thats all for now. Next stop, Charlottesville on Saturday. |

Second in a series. This is from a paper I presented. This segment deals with an analysis of a study of the formation of a cultural identity in the text book covers found in the US in the 18th and 19th century. The second article analyzed wished to examine the use of visual metaphor in the front covers in popular textbooks published in the United States in the late 18th and early to mid 19th century. In this study (Provenzo, 1984) the argument posed is that by use of traditional and symbolic metaphors a distinct patriotic iconography emerged in the United States. In declaring independence from England, it was important for the United States had also declared the new republic of England’s social traditions and the need was to find a replacement for the new republic. Typically found on the textbooks from this era are symbols from the ancient world, typically found in the ancient Roman Republic. Ultimately, the new republic symbols would become identifiable with the new republic being formed. The author’s asserts, a patriotic iconography or symbolism emerged, drawing upon the collective history of the nation. In early editions of textbooks used in the United States images of the Founding Fathers are seen. However, by the end of the 18th century the figure of Minerva or Athena is seen acting as a guide for young children. It was a common practice in England to put the ruling monarch on the cover of children’s texts, yet after only a short period publishers had rejected this practice in America. The use of these characters from antiquity is not unusual, and emerged consistently. As time progressed, the image of Minerva went through slight changes. Light is seen as coming from her head, she holds a staff, and other symbols from antiquity appear. Interestingly, winter classic is the Roman equivalent of Athena, the safeguard of the new republic so long as her image remained within the walls of the city. The symbolic parallel is clear, and was over a period of time was brought to the focus of the new nation’s children daily. In later editions of texts the Roman Goddess of Liberty is jay r. grodner The suggestion of the study is that educational materials reflect an emergence and are part of the evolution of a culture. It is clear that development of a cultural identification with ancient Rome was paramount in the formation of a national identity for the United States, and the educational system was at the front and center of this formation of a collective sense of historical identity.
