High Notes 02-03-2011
In 1947, William G. Ryan, his wife Fay, and their twin sons, Paul and Roger, lived above the L and G Grocery, operated by John M. Lawson, at 212 ½ Market Street, and William was a supervisor at The Portsmouth Gas Company.
Paul and Roger graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1949.
By 1959, son Paul had graduated from Ohio State University with a B. S. in electrical engineering, and had founded, Dytronics Company, Inc. in the basement of his house in Columbus, Ohio, with the purpose of developing precision instrumentation for aerospace applications. “Significant contributions were made to the Apollo space program, with special recognition for developing a primary method of measuring the phase angle between two electrical signals. The resulting product, called the ‘Primary Phase Angle Standard’ was supplied to every aerospace metrology laboratory, both government and private as well as the metrology laboratories of all NATO nations,” according to information in the September 20, 2010 brochure distributed when Paul Ryan was honored at the annual OSU alumni awards luncheon.
The OSU College of Engineering, Dean Gregory Washington awarded Paul with the 2010 Lamme Medal – the highest recognition the College bestows upon a graduate.
Paul holds 11-patents, and one of his major inventions was the Ryan Stormscope.
He had a longtime interest in flying, and by 1968, had become a licensed pilot with ATP (Airline Transport Pilot) certification. He was able to use his flying abilities in his business, and while on a business trip in his own plane, he almost met major disaster by inadvertently flying into a violent thunderstorm. There was no way to avoid thunderstorms, capable of tornado-like winds which can tear the wings off any airplane.
That’s when Paul decided to devote his time to research a solution, and in 1976, eight-years after the storm incident, the Ryan Stormscope was introduced. Today, the Ryan Stormscope is widely used in all types of aircraft to guide them through threatening storms.
In 1981, Paul sold his invention to the 3M Company, and he established, Ryan International Corporation in order to continue improvement in flight safety. The resulting product, called the TAS (Traffic Advisory System), generated a map of aircraft traffic up to 50-miles away for pilot viewing. Today, many thousands of Ryan’s TAS units are used in aircraft.
In 2005, Ryan International Corporation was sold and merged with the Avidyne Corporation, a leading producer of avionics.
Mr. Ryan now lives at Muirfield Village, in Dublin, Ohio, with his wife, JoAnn (Moore). She is the daughter of Charles and Dorothy Moore, longtime restaurant operators in Portsmouth; Frisch’s and Moore’s Restaurant.
Paul and JoAnn have five children, Lee Ann, Larry, David, Dean and Gary.
Paul’s father, William Gordon Ryan, was a longtime Portsmouth Public Library board member, and the Lucasville branch is named the W. Gordon Ryan Library.

Questoiopns that haunt me... Thanks Joann Hensley!
Thanks Jo Ann Hensley!
QUESTIONS THAT HAUNT ME!
If you have sex with a prostitute against her will, is it considered rape or shoplifting?
Can you cry under water?
How important does a person have to be before they are considered assassinated instead of just murdered?
Why do you have to 'put your two cents in'... but it's only a 'penny for your thoughts'? Where's that extra penny going to?
Once you're in heaven, do you get stuck wearing the clothes you were buried in for eternity?
Why does a round pizza come in a square box?
What disease did cured ham actually have?
How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage?
Why is it that people say they 'slept like a baby' when babies wake up like every two hours?
If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing?
Why are you IN a movie, but you're ON TV?
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
Why do doctors leave the room while you change?
They're going to see you naked anyway...
Why is 'bra' singular and 'panties' plural?
Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?
If Jimmy cracks corn and no one cares, why is there a stupid song about him?
If the professor on Gilligan's Island can make a radio out of a coconut, why can't he fix a hole in a boat?
Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours?
They're both dogs!
If Wile E. Coyote had enough money to buy all that ACME crap, why didn't he just buy dinner?
If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?
If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?
Do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune?
Why did you just try singing the two songs above?
Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?
Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him for a car ride, he sticks his head out the window?
Why, Why, Why
Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are getting dead?
Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough money?
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet?
Why do they use sterilized needles for death by lethal injection?
Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard?
Why does Superman stop bullets with his chest, but ducks when you throw a revolver at him?
Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'?
If people evolved from apes,
why are there still apes?
Why is it that no matter what color bubble bath you use the bubbles are always white?
Is there ever a day that mattresses
are not on sale?
Why do people constantly return to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat will have materialized?
Why do people keep running over a string a dozen times with their vacuum cleaner, then reach down, pick it up, examine it, then put it down to give the vacuum one more chance?
Why is it that no plastic bag will open from the end on your first try?
How do those dead bugs get into those enclosed light fixtures?
When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart then apologizes for doing so, why do we say, 'It's all right?' Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, 'That really hurt, why don't you watch where you're going?'
Why is it that whenever you attempt to catch something that's falling off the table you always manage to knock something else over?
In winter why do we try to keep the house as warm as it was in summer when we complained about the heat?
How come you never hear father-in-law jokes?
A FAVORITE........
The statistics on sanity is that one out of every four persons are suffering from some sort of mental illness. Think of your three best friends -- if they're okay, then it's you.
Do you ever wonder why you gave me your
e-mail address in the first place?

Rules for clotheslines... Pat Richards Whitehead
Thanks Pat Whitehead! Rules for clotheslines
RULES FOR CLOTHESLINES: (if you don't know what clotheslines are, better skip this)
1. You had to wash the clothes line before hanging any clothes - walk the entire lengths of each line with a damp cloth around the lines.
2. You had to hang the clothes in a certain order, and always hang "whites" with "whites," and hang them first.
3. You never hung a shirt by the shoulders - always by the tail!. What would the neighbours think?
4.. Wash day on a Monday! . .. . Never hang clothes on the weekend, or Sunday, for Heaven's sake!
5. Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so you could hide your "unmentionables" in the middle (perverts & busybodies, y'know!)
6. It didn't matter if it was sub zero weather ... clothes would "freeze-dry."
7. Always gather the clothes pins when taking down dry clothes! Pins left on the lines were "tacky!"
8. If you were efficient, you would line the clothes up so that each item did not need two clothes pins, but shared one of the clothes pins with the next washed item.
9. Clothes off of the line before dinner time, neatly folded in the clothes basket, and ready to be ironed.
10. IRONED?! Well, that's a whole other subject!
A POEM
A clothesline was a news forecast
To neighbours passing by,
There were no secrets you could keep
When clothes were hung to dry.
It also was a friendly link
For neighbours always knew
If company had stopped on by
To spend a night or two.
For then you'd see the "fancy sheets"
And towels upon the line;
You'd see the "company table cloths"
With intricate designs.
The line announced a baby's birth
From folks who lived inside -
As brand new infant clothes were hung,
So carefully with pride!
The ages of the children could
So readily be known
By watching how the sizes changed,
You'd know how much they'd grown!
It also told when illness struck,
As extra sheets were hung;
Then nightclothes, and a bathrobe, too,
Haphazardly were strung.
It also said, "Gone on vacation now"
When lines hung limp and bare.
It told, "We're back!" when full lines sagged
With not an inch to spare!
New folks in town were scorned upon
If wash was dingy and gray,
As neighbours carefully raised their brows,
And looked the other way .. . .
But clotheslines now are of the past,
For dryers make work much less.
Now what goes on inside a home
Is anybody's guess!
I really miss that way of life.
It was a friendly sign
When neighbours knew each other best
By what hung on the line.

An old Indian was asked the name of his wife.
He replied, "Wife Name - Three Horse."
"That's an unusual name for your wife, Three Horse. What does it mean?"
"It's an old Indian name. Means Nag, Nag, Nag."

ROOT CAUSES: Illegal Immigration
In Commerce, culture, Immigration, Politics, Stupidity, thinking out loud, Useful Information on January 26, 2011 at 12:01 am
Illegal immigrants are everywhere these days. Kentucky, New Jersey, Maine, Michigan, Idaho, North Dakota. Americans are fed up. They ask why they must pay the tax bill for illegal immigrant welfare.
It’s the cost of cheap labor. If Americans are going to allow South and Central Americans and Mexicans to migrate North so that American Business can get labor so cheap that China looks magnanimous by comparison, then this is the price America must pay.
It’s the same as it ever was. Business passing off expenses to the consumer.
Big (and small) Business gets CHEAP LABOR. The government takes up the slack. The tax payer pays for the Federal Government to take up that slack.
What’s new about this?
America did it with the Japanese, Chinese, Irish, Germans, Italians and others. Now America is doing it with Mexicans and the other Southern fellows. I didn’t mention the Africans because that was different. Slavery was not written off and passed to the customer. There is no comparison between what happened to the Slaves and what occurred with other immigrant groups or the current batch. Slavery was simply evil incarnate. Romans treated their slaves better than the American Southern Gentleman treated his.
Cheap labor. It’s wonderful. You want inexpensive products. Well, this is how you get it in America. Illegal Immigration. The only reason that Americans are complaining about illegal immigration is because it’s in their faces. DAILY! If it weren’t such an obvious phenomenon, the issue would not hold the collectively and infamously short attention span of the American political consciousness.
Cheap labor makes products that come from all over the world. China, Cambodia, Burma, etc,. Not too many Americans give this a second thought as they purchase their Under Armour Shoes and Shirts. Not many Americans spare a thought about these places because they aren’t walking by American front porches or soaking up American tax dollars.
This is the cost of Capitalism and Low Prices. Starvation wages, sweat houses, people living in squalor. All so Americans can buy cheaper iPods, Oranges, Bananas and Nikes. In the end, the devil takes his due.
GO CAPITALISM!
I’m all for it.
The last pic begs the question. Why do people have children when they know that they can’t take care of them?

Wisdom and exercise from an OLD friend... Thanks Patricia!
Thanks Pat Richards Whitehead! She's darn near my age.
: Excercise for people 50 and over
Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where you have plenty of room at
each side.
With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your
sides and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute,
and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for
just a bit longer.
After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags. Then try 50-lb potato
bags and eventually try to get to where you can lift a 100-lb potato bag in
each hand and hold your arms straight for more than a full minute (I'm at
this level.).
Then, after you feel confident at this level, put a potato in each bag.

Top-rated talk radio host Rush Limbaugh on Friday questioned why new Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie has not gotten support from the White House in his efforts to resolve the doubts of so-called “birthers” about Barack Obama’s place of birth.
Limbaugh also says he finds it “stunning” that Abercrombie still can’t prove Obama was born in Hawaii as he maintains.
Abercrombie has stated that he wants to put to rest assertions that Obama may not have been born in the United States and therefore is not eligible to serve as president, assertions fueled by Obama’s lack of a hospital-generated birth certificate.
But Limbaugh noted that Abercrombie now says “a hospital generated birth certificate for Obama may not exist within the vital records maintained by the Hawaii Department of Health. He said efforts were still being made to track down definitive vital records that would prove Obama was born in Hawaii.
“Remember, he started out, the whole reason for doing this, was to get it off the table so it wasn’t an election issue for 2014.
“But he’s done the exact opposite now. How many of us could get away with saying, ‘Yeah, there’s a little notation somewhere there in the archives, but we can’t find the birth certificate.’”
Limbaugh compared Abercrombie’s vow to demonstrate Obama’s Hawaii birth before he knew he could produce the birth certificate to a lawyer granting immunity to someone before knowing what the person was going to say.
Regarding Obama’s supposed Hawaii birth, “they still can’t prove it,” Limbaugh said.
“It is stunning to me. The governor of Hawaii vowed when he took office that he would do his best to end the debate over Obama’s birth, which began in 2008 during the presidential campaign.
“Where’s the president on this? Where’s the president’s vow to end the debate over his birth. We’re going on four years on this. It keeps intensifying.
“Where’s Obama? Where’s the White House? Is this guy flying alone? Neil Abercrombie on his own on this? So much of this is difficult to fathom, to believe.”

Tango Mike Mike - Roy P. Benavidez
Dr. Ralph, this is the best testimonial of a hero. Who of us have not known seventh grade drop-outs who we considered "a failure". Mike destroyed those odds for success as an American fighting man.
A soldier must fight and kill and they have done so throughout man's history. My departed friend, Bob Wiethorn, of our informal Westerville Men's Prayer Breakfast years ago, said he just could not kill a person, even in war, and I believe him. I honestly believe that I could, but was not really tested, thank you God. Few have been tested, such as Tango Mike Benavidez.
Bring it UP! Thanks Sarah DuPuy Rapp!
Just ONE example of why English is SO difficult to learn . . . . .
Think about it.
UP
Read until the end.....you'll laugh....
This two-letter word in English has more meanings than any other two-letter word, and that word
is 'UP.' It is listed in the dictionary as an [adv], [prep], [adj], [n] or [v].
It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?
At a meeting, why does a topic come UP? Why do we speak UP, and why are the
officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to
write UP a report? We call UP our friends, brighten UP a room, polish UP the
silver, warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We
lock UP the house and
fix UP the old car.
At other times this little word has real special meaning. People stir UP trouble,
line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP excuses.
To be dressed is one
thing but to be dressed UP is
special.
And this UP is confusing: A
drain must be opened UP because it is stopped UP.
We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at
night We seem to be pretty mixed
UP about UP !
To be
knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP,
look UP the word UP in the dictionary.. In a desk-sized
dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add UP to about thirty definitions
If you are UP to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time, but if you don't give UP, you may
wind UP with a hundred or more.
When it threatens to rain, we say it is
clouding UP . When the sun comes out
we say it is clearing UP. When it rains, it
soaks UP the
earth. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP. One could go on & on, but I'll wrap
it UP, for now ........my time is UP !
Oh....one more thing:
What is the first thing you
do in the morning & the last thing you do at
night?
U
P !
Did that one crack you UP?
Don't screw UP. Send this on to everyone you
look UP in your address
book..or not...it's UP to you.
Now
I'll shut UP
Think about it.

Bears lose to Green Bay... From a good Retired Denison friend in Dallas
The Green Bay Packers just beat the Chicago Bears and will go to the Super Bowl in Dallas. They also removed any reason for Barak Obama to come to Dallas, as he had said he would do if the Bears won. If he came to the Super Bowl, it would have so screwed up a fine football game. Security within Jerry Jones’ new stadium would have made it impossible for real football fans to move about within the stadium. Obama would have taken over probably several hundred Super Bowl tickets for himself and his entourage from deserving Super Bowl fans. Parking will be terrible around the stadium as it is, but when they close off half the parking areas for security reasons around Obama’s crowd of thugs, it will be unbearable. Hotel space is already at a premium and would have become impossible as several hundred of Obama’s security thugs move into town. DFW airport would become a total mess when his plane arrives, and the freeways, awful at best, would become impassable when his parade set off from the airport to the stadium.
Jerry Jones should personally go to Washington and thank Mr. Obama for not utterly devastating the first Super Bowl in Jerry’s House of Football. The Green Bay Packers have probably saved Dallas and Jerry Jones millions upon millions of dollars by beating the Bears. I kind of wanted the Bears to win until I heard Obama had threatened us with his presence if they did. At that point I became a Packers fan

The obamaphone- This should be one of the early cuts for the new republican-heavy house.
The Obamaphone - NO JOKE
Just when you think you’ve heard it all, our US Congress quietly comes up with a new zinger to put their hands in your pockets, and pick them while you aren’t watching. Isn't this just wonderful?
I was standing in line at the checkout counter at Wal Mart and as I looked at the line behind me, I saw a couple of people talking about what looked like identical new cell phones, bragging about the fact that their phones were free and so was the airtime.
The woman in line behind me had heard the same exchange and turned to the young man behind her and asked, “Is that a new type of cell phone?” The young man replied, “Yes, this is my new ‘Obamaphone’”. She asked him what an “Obama phone” was, and he went on to say that, “Welfare recipients are now eligible to receive” what he described as (1) a FREE new cell phone, and (2) approximately 70 FREE minutes of air time every month.
Needless to say, I was a little skeptical about his answer, so when I got back home, I ‘Googled’ it, and lo and behold, he was telling the truth. This was what I discovered:
SafeLink Wireless is a government supported program that provides a free cell phone and airtime each month for income-eligible customers. In other words, your tax dollars are being distributed to a wireless phone provider to provide welfare recipients with free cell phones and airtime. I don’t know about you, but as for me, enough is enough. We are $14 Trillion in debt, Congress is balking at continuing unemployment payments to those who want to work, and Congress is increasing the dole-out to dead beats.
The ship of State is sinking, and it’s sinking fast. The old concept of getting ahead through hard work has flown out the window. It has been replaced by Obama’s and Congress’ idea of “Hope and Change.” The country has changed all right, changed to "Why should I work for it, when I can get it for free?"
You can click on the link below to confirm for yourself that the “Obama Phone” is real.
Just have your barf bag ready.
Sorry. You can't just click it from my blog. You must type it out.

Recall Notice! Thanks Dave Miller!
Thanks Dave Miller!
RECALL NOTICE:
The Maker of all human beings (GOD) is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart.
This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code named Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units.
This defect has been technically termed "Sub-sequential Internal Non-Morality," or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed.
Some of the symptoms include:
1. Loss of direction
2. Foul vocal emissions
3. Amnesia of origin
4. Lack of peace and joy
5. Selfish or violent behavior
6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
7. Fearfulness
8. Idolatry
9. Rebellion
The Manufacturer, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory-authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this defect.
The Repair Technician, JESUS, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required. The number to call for repair in all areas is:
P-R-A-Y-E-R.
Once connected, please upload your burden of SIN through the REPENTANCE procedure.
Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, Jesus, into the heart component.
No matter how big or small the SIN defect is, Jesus will replace it with:
1. Love
2. Joy
3. Peace
4. Patience
5. Kindness
6. Goodness
7. Faithfulness
8. Gentleness
9. Self control
Please see the operating manual, the B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth) for further details on the use of these fixes.
WARNING: Continuing to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit being permanently impounded. For free emergency service, call on God in Jesus' name.
DANGER: The human being units not responding
to this recall action will have to be scrapped in the furnace. The SIN defect will not be permitted to enter his Kingdom so as to prevent contamination of that facility.
Thank you for your attention!
GOD
P.S. Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice, and you may contact the Father any time by 'Knee mail'!

A Polite way to call someone a B-----d
Now, Ted Truitt, you can see why the warning note before entering my blog. That darn Clay Vice snuck this one in on me.
SamKat... aka Sam Kegley (PHS50)
A guy was getting ready to tee off on the first hole when a second golfer approached and asked if he could join him.
The first said that he usually played alone, but agreed to the twosome.
They were even after the first few holes. The second guy said, "We're about evenly matched, how about playing for five bucks a hole?"
The first guy said that he wasn't much for betting, but agreed to the terms.
The second guy won the remaining sixteen holes with ease.
As they were walking off number eighteen, the second guy was busy counting his $80.00. He confessed that he was the pro at a neighboring course and liked to pick on suckers.
The first fellow revealed that he was the Parish Priest.
The pro was flustered and apologetic, offering to return the money.
The Priest said, "You won fair and square and I was foolish to bet with you. You keep your winnings."
The pro said, "Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?"
The Priest said, "Well, you could come to Mass on Sunday and make a donation. And, if you want to bring your mother and father along, I'll marry them.

Shopped and changed products to that made here. Worth the time.
Read the label (bar code) this will surprise you shoppers
This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you.
The whole world is afraid of China-made "black hearted goods".
Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China ?
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690, 691 or 692, the product is MADE IN CHINA..
471 is Made in Taiwan .
This is our right to know, but the government and related departments never educate the public, therefore we have to RESCUE ourselves.
Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products "MADE IN CHINA ", so they don't show from which country it is made..
However, you may now refer to the barcode, remember if the first 3 digits are:
00 - 09 USA & CANADA
690-692 … then it is MADE IN CHINA ..
30 - 37 … FRANCE
40 - 44 … GERMANY
47 ... Taiwan
49 … JAPAN
50 … UK
BUY USA by watching for "0" at the beginning of the number. We need every boost we can get!
In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects someone else and perhaps even their job.
My grandson likes Hershey's candy. It is marked made in Mexico . I do not buy it any more My favorite toothpaste Colgate is made in Mexico now. I have switched to Crest. You have to read the labels on everything.
This past weekend I was at Kroger. I needed 60W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets. I was in the light bulb aisle and right next to the GE brand I normally buy was an off brand labeled,”Everyday Value." I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats - they were the same except for the price. The GE bulbs were more money than the Everyday Value brand but the thing that surprised me the most was the fact that GE was made in MEXICO and the Everyday Value brand was made in - get ready for this - the USA in a company in Cleveland , Ohio .
So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that are made right here.
So on to another aisle - Bounce Dryer Sheets....yep, you guessed it, Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada . The Everyday Value brand was less money and M ADE IN THE USA! I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using for years and at almost half the price!
So my challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA – the job you save may be your own or your neighbors!
If you accept the challenge, pass this on to others in your address book so we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time! Stop buying from China ...........
(We should have awakened to this a decade ago......)
Let's get with the program.... help our fellow Americans keep their jobs and create more jobs here in the U.S.A. !!!

Subject: Fw: Read the label (bar code) this will surprise you shoppers

Shopped and changed products to that made here. Worth the time.
Read the label (bar code) this will surprise you shoppers
This may be useful to know when grocery shopping, if it's a concern to you.
The whole world is afraid of China-made "black hearted goods".
Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or China ?
If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 690, 691 or 692, the product is MADE IN CHINA..
471 is Made in Taiwan .
This is our right to know, but the government and related departments never educate the public, therefore we have to RESCUE ourselves.
Nowadays, Chinese businessmen know that consumers do not prefer products "MADE IN CHINA ", so they don't show from which country it is made..
However, you may now refer to the barcode, remember if the first 3 digits are:
00 - 09 USA & CANADA
690-692 … then it is MADE IN CHINA ..
30 - 37 … FRANCE
40 - 44 … GERMANY
47 ... Taiwan
49 … JAPAN
50 … UK

The tiny cabin... thanks Sarah DuPuy Rapp!
Thanks Sarah DuPuy Rapp, Portsmouth Trojan John Rapp's widow!
THE TINY CABIN
A social worker from a big City in Massachusetts recently transferred to mountains of Tenneesee and was on first tour of her new territory when she came upon the tiniest cabin she had ever seen in her life. Intrigued, she went up and knocked on the door.
"Anybody home?" she asked.
"Yep," came a kid's voice through the door.
"Is your father there?" asked the social worker.
"Pa? Nope, he left afore Ma came in," said the kid.
"Well, is your mother there?" persisted the social worker.
"Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here," said the kid.
"But," protested the social worker, "are you never together as a family?" "Sure, but not here," said the kid through the door. "This is the outhouse!"
Government workers are so very smart. Aren't you overjoyed that they'll soon be handling all our financial, educational and medical dilemmas?

As Always During these serious and troubled times, people of all faiths should remember these:
FOUR GREAT RELIGIOUS TRUTHS:
1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God's Chosen People.
2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.
3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world.
4. Baptists do not recognize each other at the liquor store.
GOOD SAMARITAN A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the Good Samaritan. She asked the class, "If you saw a person lying on the roadside, all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?" A thoughtful little girl broke the silence, "I think I'd throw up."
DID NOAH FISH? A Sunday school teacher asked, "Johnny, do you think Noah did a lot of fishing when he was on the Ark ?" "No," replied Johnny. "How could he, with just two worms?"
THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD A Sunday school teacher decided to have her young class memorize one of the most quoted passages in the Bible - Psalm 23. She gave the youngsters a month to learn the chapter. Little Rick was excited about the task - but he just couldn't remember the Psalm. After much practice, he could barely get past the first line. On the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in front of the congregation, Ricky was very nervous. When it was his turn, he stepped up to the microphone and said proudly, "The Lord is my Shepherd, and that's all I need to know."
UNANSWERED PRAYER The preacher's 5 year-old daughter noticed that her father always paused and bowed his head for a moment before starting his sermon. One day, she asked him why. "Well, Honey," he began, proud that his daughter was so observant of his messages. "I'm asking the Lord to help me preach a good sermon." "How come He doesn't answer it?" she asked.
BEING THANKFUL A Rabbi said to a precocious six-year-old boy, "So your mother says your prayers for you each night? That's very commendable. What does she say?" The little boy replied, "Thank God he's in bed!"
ALL MEN / ALL GIRLS When my daughter, Kelly, said her bedtime prayers, she would bless every family member, every friend, and every animal (current and past). For several weeks, after we had finished the nightly prayer, Kelly would say,"And all girls." This soon became part of her nightly routine, to include this closing. My curiosity got the best of me and I asked her, "Kelly, why do you always add the part about all girls?" Her response, "Because everybody else always finishes their prayers by saying 'All Men!"
SAY A PRAYER Little Johnny and his family were having Sunday dinner at his grandmother's house. Everyone was seated around the table as the food was being served. When Little Johnny received his plate, he started eating right away. "Johnny! Please wait until we say our prayer." said his mother. "I don't need to," the boy replied. "Of course, you do” his mother insisted. "We always say a prayer before eating at our house." "That's at our house." Johnny explained. "But this is Grandma's house, and she knows how to cook."

Old Testament and New Testament Difference
The USA has not become so different from Soddom and Gomorrah (sp?), except that the old testament residents had God, yet He had not sent his Son, Jesus Christ. He lived among and died for each of this earth's inhabitants. Jesus was miraculously ressurrected. But each earthling must accept Him, as God's Son and New Testament plan.
I am encouraged by attending Xenos, a wonderful Bible teaching mega-church in Westerville, Ohio, where Dr. Jeff Gordon, and a few other excellent teachers, present the gospel each Sunday. I wholeheartedly accept Christ and God's great plan.
I joke among family and friends that I am TIO (The Innocent One) and they fire their disbeliefs right back at me. Only joking, of course. I place myself above Paul, in being "chief among sinners". God knows that and still loves me. Oh, how wonderful!

Student's list per the teacher
Recycled reverently, Nita!
Sam
I'm sending this to everybody that is special to me!
Too Busy for a Friend...A Loved One????????
One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name.
Then she told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down.
It took the remainder of the class period to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one handed in the papers.
That Saturday, the teacher wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and listed what everyone else had said about that individual.
On Monday she gave each student his or her list. Before long, the entire class was smiling. "Really?" she heard whispered. "I never knew that I meant anything to anyone!" and, "I didn't know others liked me so much," were most of the comments.
No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. She never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didn't matter. The exercise had accomplished its purpose. The students were happy with themselves and one another. That group of students moved on.
Several years later, one of the students was killed in Viet Nam and his teacher attended the funeral of that special student. She had never seen a serviceman in a military coffin before. He looked so handsome, so mature.
The church was packed with his friends. One by one those who loved him took a last walk by the coffin. The teacher was the last one to bless the coffin.
As she stood there, one of the soldiers who acted as pallbearer came up to her. "Were you Mark's math teacher?" he asked. She nodded: "yes." Then he said: "Mark talked about you a lot."
After the funeral, most of Mark's former classmates went together to a luncheon. Mark's mother and father were there, obviously waiting to speak with his teacher.
"We want to show you something," his father said, taking a wallet out of his pocket "They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might recognize it."
Opening the billfold, he carefully removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded and refolded many times. The teacher knew without looking that the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark's classmates had said about him.
"Thank you so much for doing that," Mark's mother said. "As you can see, Mark treasured it."
All of Mark's former classmates started to gather around. Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said, "I still have my list. It's in the top drawer of my desk at home."
Chuck's wife said, "Chuck asked me to put his in our wedding album."
"I have mine too," Marilyn said. "It's in my diary"
Then Vicki, another classmate, reached into her pocketbook, took out her wallet and showed her worn and frazzled list to the group. "I carry this with me at all times," Vicki said and without batting an eyelash, she continued: "I think we all saved our lists"
That's when the teacher finally sat down and cried. She cried for Mark and for all his friends who would never see him again.
The density of people in society is so thick that we forget that life will end one day. And we don't know when that one day will be.
So please, tell the people you love and care for, that they are special and important. Tell them, before it is too late.
And One Way To Accomplish This Is: Forward this message on. If you do not send it, you will have, once again passed up the wonderful opportunity to do something nice and beautiful.
If you've received this, it is because someone cares for you and it means there is probably at least someone for whom you care.
If you're "too busy" to take those few minutes right now to forward this message on, would this be the VERY first time you didn't do that little thing that would make a difference in your relationships?
The more people that you send this to, the better you'll be at reaching out to those you care about.
Remember, you reap what you sow. What you put into the lives of others comes back into your own.
It is worth going through this, atleast to remind ourselves that there are people who care for us, and for whom we care.

Franklin Graham denounces anti-Christ Tuscon service

Latest: Do You Want Obamacare Repealed? Tell Congress Here — Make Your Voice Heard!
Franklin Graham: Spirit of Anti-Christ Is Everywhere
Thursday, 20 Jan 2011 05:28 PM Article Font Size
By David A. Patten
The Rev. Franklin Graham says just mentioning the name Jesus Christ in the public square is increasingly frowned upon and warns: "The spirit of anti-Christ is everywhere."
The Samaritan’s Purse founder and son of beloved evangelist Dr. Billy Graham voiced his dismay at the rapid secularization of society during a Tuesday chapel service at John Brown University, a private Christian university based in Siloam Springs, Ark.
Graham, who was banned from a Pentagon national day of Prayer event last year for expressing his opinions about Islam, told students: “Even in our government today, you can't pray to Jesus in many public meetings. You can pray to God or a god. You can mention Buddha or the name of Muhammad -- but you can't pray to Jesus Christ.”
The president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association criticized the recent memorial service for the Tucson shooting victims.
Unlike the memorials held after the Oklahoma City bombing and 9/11, he said, the Tucson program did not include an official prayer or mention of God. Graham noted gratefully, however, that President Barack Obama did quote scripture from the biblical book of Job.
The one religious dedication on the program came from a member of the Pascua Yaqui tribe, who delivered a peroration that among other things called out to “"Father Sky, where we get our masculine energy" and "Mother Earth, where we get our feminine energy.”
Earlier this week, Graham penned an op-ed in the Washington Times saying it was “a shame” that the University of Arizona had failed to put God anywhere on its program.
“How sad,” the Graham op-ed stated. “Father Sky and Mother Earth can do nothing to comfort Capt. Mark Kelly, who had been at the bedside of his wife, Rep. Giffords, wondering if she'd ever leave her bed. Or Mary Stoddard, who was only alive because her husband sacrificed his life by shielding her with his body. Or the family, classmates, teammates and friends of little Christina, whose life was snuffed out before she could play another season of Little League.”
Graham told the university students what was missing from the memorial: “There was no call for God to put His loving arms around those who were hurting,” said Graham. "Why did they leave him out? They scoff at the name of Jesus Christ."
Graham predicted the persecution of Christians will get worse in coming years, and he encouraged students to use the new media and the Internet to spread the gospel.
"I'm going to build an army of young people," Graham said, according to ChristianPost.com. "We're going to find out how do you infiltrate every language of the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and do it on the Internet."

Miss America "I'm defined by God" OneNews.com
New Miss America says God gives her a purpose
Associated Press - 1/18/2011 10:25:00 AM
LAS VEGAS - The newly-crowned Miss America, 17-year-old Teresa Scanlan, is a mostly home-schooled Christian who pointed heavenward when she was announced as the winner Saturday night.
According to the new Miss America, she wasn't the only Christian contestant in this year's pageant. "We know why we're here and what we're doing," said Scanlan, "and we have a passion for it because we know it's what God wants us to do. And so every person that I meet I know God has a reason why I'm meeting them. I just want to embrace that as much as I can this year."
Scanlan told reporters that she and other Christian contestants had been at peace waiting for the judges' decision, confident that it was ultimately in God's hands. "We knew that whatever happened is His plan," she shared. "And so whether I won or not, I just knew that the right person would be in the right place. So I guess I'm in the right place -- and now I'm just so excited to see what He has in store."
She says she and many of her fellow contestants are purpose-driven Christians. "Many of the girls who made it very high [in the competition] had a strong faith because that shows...the substance and purpose behind what we're doing -- and that's why we're driven."
The former Miss Nebraska said she believes her faith was an advantage in the competition, since she didn't have to think through and sort out her convictions beforehand. Scanlan said, "That's the whole purpose behind who I am. I'm defined by what God has created me to be."
After her year as Miss America, Scanlan plans to attend Patrick Henry College -- a Christian school in Virginia -- where she'll study government and work toward a career in law or politics.

Thanks Dr. Hovermale! More Bryanbty and James at UK
The movie is The Junction boys Ralph. It is about Bryant's interim job at TX ?.
Dr. Hovermale was a runner on UK track teams in the fifties after the Bear and Pat James.
Wannamaker became an All Pro destroyer.

Hi Sam,
What is this movie? I remember Pat James well. He and Wannamaker were Bryant’s guards. Many stories were told about them. I recall one in which James was chasing a back for a loss. The back was dodging to and fro until James called, “You better let me tackle you. Wannamaker is right behind me and you sure don’t want him to tackle you”. The back gave up! They were gone when we reorganized the “K” Club so I never got to know them.
Regards,
Ralph

I am tutoring at CSCC this quarter on Mondays and Thursdays from 12 to 4. That will cut out my LAD meetings, but I miss seeing you and all of the great Denison people. We all have seen upsets such as the Middies losing to Columbus North in the Ohio State A semi-finals. North lost to a Cleveland team the next and final game. Heartbreak Highway in tournament time.

Subject: Remembering Jerry Lucas--reply from Doug
Hi Sam:
I enjoy your reminisces about PHS, KY, and other sports topics. Being in the Western Hills HS (Cincinnati) class of 1955 I recall some of the names mentioned and of course Jerry Lucas.
When it was mentioned PHS lost to Cin. Hughes in 1955, I wondered why. Hadn't Robin Freeman left for OSU by then? I played bb for Western Hills (not particularily well) as 6th or 7th man and sort of recall Hughes was not that good in 1955. I recall a black player for Hughes named Blackstone who gave me an intentional elbow in the ribs and I told him if he did it again I'd knock his head off. He didn't.
I recall Curt Gentry, but am not sure in which sport. Did he play anything in College?
I have a minor association with UK. My uncle by marriage--Harold Wetzel started the UK School of Social Work and was it's chairman for many years. I used to visit them as a child (and later as an adult). They lived on Sycamore--down the street from the Henry Clay home.
We watched the Big 10 Icon Jerry Lucas program yesterday and enjoyed it. He came to Ohio State when I was a Junior and was quite a player--even better than I remembered. How many points would he have scored if he wasn't just as happy passing off to someone else? His rebounding was incredible also. I may recall a few more memories later.
Thursday is our Lads Luncheon. Come and bring Jeanie if you can.

Jerry Lucas PHS memories of the Middies
Thanks Blaine Bierley!
You and Jack H Plymale are excellent PHS athletic archivists. Jim fout, Doc Yeagle, and Jack H Plymale let me share the seat that Paul Walker normally shared with them, courtesy of Jim Fout, Ex PHS QB (43-45?) and OSU FB player. They played fb for Paul Walker at Portsmouth and remained close with Coach Walker throughout his remaining years.
Coach shared with his named PHS friends above that he also had parental pressures. A lady pestered him that her son could provide the same leadership as Jerry L, used in his place in the Middie offense. Coach yielded in the semi-final game with Columbus North coached by Frank Truitt, a friend of ours. The angry lady was proven quite wrong as the Middies lost that semi-final game.
Coach regretted his mistake but he didn't make many in coaching.

“Jerry Lucas”
In my senior year at Portsmouth High School (1954-1955) the
Trojans had an outstanding basketball team. During the regular season
we won 15 games and lost only 3. Our tournament record ended at 5 and 1
when we lost to Cincinnati Hughes. Overall, Coach George Heller’s
miraculous “Six Shooters” posted a fine record of 20 wins and
4 losses.
One of the things that made that 54-55 season great was that the Trojans made a clean sweep of Ohio’s perennial cage powers. We defeated Middletown, Hamilton, and Springfield each twice--both in Grant Gym and on their home floors.
In the seventh game of the season the Trojans beat Middletown 81 to 60 at Middletown. Billy Clifford was the Trojan’s high scorer with 28 points with Curt Gentry close behind with 24 points. In the twelfth game of the season, at U.S. Grant gymnasium, PHS beat the Middies 56 to 41. This time Curt Gentry led the Trojans with 18 points and Milt Parker was close on his heels with 14 points.
I’m sure that you recall all the names of those “Six Shooters”:
senior Curt Gentry, senior Milton Parker, senior Billy Clifford, junior Jerry
Higgins, junior Don “Duck” Frazier, and junior Bruce Johnson. Coach Heller
was assisted that season by Charles Lorentz and Richard Hopkins, Jr.
Also, I wouldn’t want to fail to mention our two fine senior basketball managers: Kenny Amick and Charlie McKelvey.
However, the next year a young sophomore from Middletown by the name of Jerry Lucas burst upon the Ohio basketball scene and everything changed. The Trojan 1955-1956 basketball season was still a good one. The Trojans went 16 and 7. But, they lost to Middletown three times that season, and it was all Jerry Lucas’ fault! In fact, PHS couldn’t defeat Middletown for as long as Jerry Lucas was on the team. We lost to the Middies twice during the 1956-1957 season and twice again during the 1957-1958 season. Unfortunately, the Trojans stood 0-7 against Middletown during the Lucas reign. It was not unusual for Lucas to score 30 to 40 points in games against Portsmouth--as he did with most other rivals.
Lucas was a six foot-eight inch phenomenon from a working class family (his father was a pressman in a paper mill and his mother worked on an assembly line in a box factory) who only lost one game in the three years that he played varsity basketball for Middletown.
Lucas became the most dominating high school basketball player that the State of Ohio had seen to that point in time.
Fifty years ago (1956) Lucas, a sophomore, led Middletown to the big school (Class A) championship by scoring 97 points in the Middies’ two state-tournament games in Cleveland.
In the semi-final game undefeated Middletown faced undefeated Cleveland East Tech. Middletown won easily, 99 to 78, and Lucas scored 53 points, a state tournament record.
In the final game undefeated Middletown played Canton McKinley for the state crown. Again, Middletown easily topped Canton McKinley, 91 to 69, with Lucas scoring 44 points while holding his counterpoint to a single point.
Middletown repeated as state champions the next year (1957) and extended its winning streak to 76 games before losing to Columbus North in the state semi-finals in 1958. The Middies’ streak remains the longest in Ohio boys basketball history. Lucas twice earned Ohio Player of the Year and Parade magazine’s All-American honor. He scored a state record of 2,466 points in his varsity career.
Middletown, a booming town in the 1950s (much like Portsmouth) always embraced its Middies. It is said that managers would have to shut down factories on basketball Friday nights because the workers would not show up for work, electing either to go to the games or stay home and listen to them on the radio.
Lucas would go on to win a national NCAA title at The Ohio State University, an Olympic gold medal in the 1960 games at Rome, and an NBA championship with the New York Knicks . He became the first player to win championships at all four levels (high school, college, Olympic, and professional).
After Lucas graduated, Middletown’s basketball program began a long decline, as did the city itself when the steel industry began to crumble. But for three years beginning some fifty years ago, Middletown was the center of the Ohio high school basketball universe--thanks to Jerry Lucas.
You and Jack H Plymale are excellent PHS athletic archivists. Jim fout, Doc Yeagle, and Jack H Plymale let me share the seat that Paul Walker normally shared with them, courtesy of Jim Fout, Ex PHS QB (43-45?) and OSU FB player. They played fb for Paul Walker at Portsmouth and remained close with Coach Walker throughout his remaining years.
Coach shared with his named PHS friends above that he also had parental pressures. A lady pestered him that her son could provide the same leadership as Jerry L, used in his place in the Middie offense. Coach yielded in the semi-final game with Columbus North coached by Frank Truitt, a friend of ours. The angry lady was proven quite wrong as the Middies lost that semi-final game.
Coach regretted his mistake but he didn't make many in coaching.

“Jerry Lucas”
In my senior year at Portsmouth High School (1954-1955) the
Trojans had an outstanding basketball team. During the regular season
we won 15 games and lost only 3. Our tournament record ended at 5 and 1
when we lost to Cincinnati Hughes. Overall, Coach George Heller’s
miraculous “Six Shooters” posted a fine record of 20 wins and
4 losses.
One of the things that made that 54-55 season great was that the Trojans made a clean sweep of Ohio’s perennial cage powers. We defeated Middletown, Hamilton, and Springfield each twice--both in Grant Gym and on their home floors.
In the seventh game of the season the Trojans beat Middletown 81 to 60 at Middletown. Billy Clifford was the Trojan’s high scorer with 28 points with Curt Gentry close behind with 24 points. In the twelfth game of the season, at U.S. Grant gymnasium, PHS beat the Middies 56 to 41. This time Curt Gentry led the Trojans with 18 points and Milt Parker was close on his heels with 14 points.
I’m sure that you recall all the names of those “Six Shooters”:
senior Curt Gentry, senior Milton Parker, senior Billy Clifford, junior Jerry
Higgins, junior Don “Duck” Frazier, and junior Bruce Johnson. Coach Heller
was assisted that season by Charles Lorentz and Richard Hopkins, Jr.

Re- Paul Walker and Jerry Lucas- Jack H Plymale
Portsmouthites special:
Jeanie and I had a joyous weekend in Lexington, Jack. I am strictly amazed at our love for one another. She is a good, as well as, a beautiful lady!
Sam, one of my favorite jokes is about a couple celebrating their golden anniversary. The groom was telling his best buddy about the plans. Same town,same hotel,even the same room. His wife had even stolen a menu from the restaurant and the hotel assured them that they would have the same meal. Everything exactly the same. He tells his buddy,the next time they meet His buddy says are you sure there was no difference. The groom admitted that there was one small difference. His buddy,"uhuh. I thought there might be,what was it.?????????????????? The groom,"THIS TIME I WENT IN THE BATHROOM AND CRIED.",,,,,,,,,,,, It tells a lot better than it reads, Sam. You see the punch line early.

sam,Glad you mentioned Jerry Lucas. We kidded Walker for years about going to Kentucky with a job offer for Jerry Lucas's dad at Armco in Middletown and we were just half way kidding. I forget the win streak record numbers he had. almost all when Lucas was there. I remember ( rightly or wrongly)they won 76 in a row. Lost one then won 29 in a row.He to

I was a huge Lucas fan and saw him break Chamberlain's HS career scoring record in Portsmouth. I played outdoor and YMCA pick up games with fellow Kentucky students and I had to go back down there during Christmas break to witness the OSU-UK game. OSU led by 15 at the half and I was looking for my UK bkb friends at halftime. I am glad I did not find them then, because Taylor foolheartedly turned his thouroughbreds loose on the Wildcats. Coach Rupp's poorly matched squad came back in the second half and sent the Buckeyes back to Columbus with a loss. We met agaion in LUVL in the NCAA's and OSU won before they went on to win the NCAA ion 1960. With another coach, OSU could have had three NCAA's in a row, but lost to a better coach with and undermatched team, Ed Jucker at Cincinnati.SamKat----- Original Message -----From: Jack PlymaleTo: Sam KegleySent: Monday, January 17, 2011 15:22Subject: Kentucky--------------------------------------------------------------------------------LSUSam I hope your marraige celebration was more exciting than the basketball game.Could it possibly be that the best college basketball team in the nation is right there in your hometown------------------------------------------- Nnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaawwwwwwwww.

A Memorial Service with a Theme
By Bobby Eberle January 13, 2011 7:13 am

I’m sure anyone who covers politics was looking at Wednesday’s memorial service in Tucson and wondering how Barack Obama would perform. Would he continue the barrage of attacks against conservatism as others in the media and on the left had done? Would he be distant and cold as he has been in so many speeches? Or would he actually get it right? Those were the thoughts on my mind. I didn’t give much consideration to the “event” itself, and yes, it turns out that “event” is a more fitting word than “service.”
To his credit, Obama said the right stuff, mostly. He delivered an unscripted updated on Rep. Gabrielle Giffords which brought the crowd to its feet.
Obama quoted from the Bible, saying, “There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells. God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.” Obama also presented mini biographies of the victims which helps turn them into “real people” for all of us who didn’t know them personally.
Obama also called for calm and an end the the blame-game:
But what we can’t do is use this tragedy as one more occasion to turn on one another. As we discuss these issues, let each of us do so with a good dose of humility. Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let us use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together.
After all, that’s what most of us do when we lose someone in our family – especially if the loss is unexpected. We’re shaken from our routines, and forced to look inward. We reflect on the past. Did we spend enough time with an aging parent, we wonder. Did we express our gratitude for all the sacrifices they made for us? Did we tell a spouse just how desperately we loved them, not just once in awhile but every single day?
What I think surprised many, including myself was the nature of the service. The phrase “pep rally” has been used to describe it. In many ways, it was like a political rally without the politics. It had t-shirts, and it had a theme: Together, We Thrive.
Fox News’ Brit Hume described his reaction this way:
“I just wanted to add, I think the president prepared this speech in the expectation that this would be indeed a memorial service,” Hume said. “I think it ended up being nothing of the kind. This was much more of a pep rally and perhaps that is precisely what the people of Tucson and the people of this region needed and wanted. And it really was the case that the audience was in control of the tone of this event. The audience’s reaction to the president and to the earlier speakers, and to some of the earlier speakers as well – set the tone for the event. The president prepared his speech to have a certain kind of tone. I think he would have liked it not to go on for 36 minutes or whatever it did, but it was interrupted repeatedly by applause but he couldn’t help that. It was longer, as Chris [Wallace] pointed out, some of the other events on similar occasions.”
John Hayward, writing for Human Events, described the service as “two events in Tucson.” Hayward adds, “One of them was a memorial service for the dead and wounded from Jared Loughner’s rampage on Saturday. This event went quite well. The other was an embarrassing political pep rally, held before a mob of rowdy kids.”
The undisciplined audience was bad enough to provoke criticism from observers across the political spectrum, and that leads to some questions. It is said that the event organizers cannot be blamed for the behavior of the crowd. Is that really true? They staged this thing like a pep rally, complete with rush-week T-shirts bearing the rock-concert name of the event, “Together We Thrive.” Organizers could have prepared the crowd by insisting on silence during the speeches, and making sure the kids understood the gravity of attending a memorial service that would be viewed by the entire world.
Kudos to President Obama for delivering remarks that were made to heal… not heal a constituency or voting bloc, but all of us. The crowd, however, should have had some kind of clue what a memorial service is all about. In addition, t-shirts and themes were not necessary in order to pay tribute to those who were killed. This is about honoring the fallen, not promoting a concert.

Australia says NO! Thanks good anonymous friend!
Australia says NO - Second Time she has done this!
AMAZING You must read it !!!!
She's done it again..
She sure isn't backing down on her hard line stance and one has to appreciate her belief in the rights of her native countrymen..
A breath of fresh air to see someone lead. I wish some leaders would step up in Canada & USA ...
Australian Prime Minister does it again!!
This woman should be appointed Queen of the World. Truer words have never been spoken.
It took a lot of courage for this woman to speak what she had to say for the world to hear. The retribution could be phenomenal, but at least she was willing to take a stand on her and Australia's beliefs.
The whole world needs a leader like this!

Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote:
'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.'
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom'
'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!'
'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here.
You asked to be here. So accept the country that accepted YOU.'
Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in Canada, USA, UK & Europe, WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths.
If you agree, please SEND THIS ON and ON, to as many people as you know
Where are our MP's etc. No worry of equality or human rights worries in Australia.
SEND THEM HOME.
