How Long Iraq Violence?
Wednesday, June 29th, 2005How Long Iraq Violence?
Roanoke Times, 6/26/05, Pg 1: Violence shadows soverneign successes
-
Roanoke Times, 6/27/05, Pg 1: Fighting may last 12 years
-
Both articles focus on the length and intensity of the insurgency in Iraq.
-
-
The religious/ethnic struggle between the minority Sunni's, who were Sadam's source of power and enforcement, and the Shiite majority may well go on for many years. However, that does not preclude reaching a level of stability such that Iraq can function as a nation, and we can downsize.
-
A similar situation has existed in Irland since 1919, starting with the Easter Rising, continuing through Bloody Sunday in 1972, the spectacular attack in London in 1996, and allegations of killings and recently a 50 million dollar bank robbery. However, it appears that after all this time, the parties involved are now turning to politics instead of violence.
-
In the US the KKK continued their insurgency for 100 years after "completion of major hostilities."
-
The key to success in Iraq is the Iraqi's! They must take on the responsibility and burden of controlling their destiny. They must defeat the insurgency manned by both those from within and those who are sent in. We can and should help, but we cannot do the job for them.
-
Our own history well applies: Lafayette and Pulaski came here to help, they did not come here to fight the war for us!

Thats what happens when you don't do Body Pump for 2 weeks!! We taught this past Friday after returning from our vacation, and Saturday, we were both so sore we could barely walk! I really thought with all the walking/hiking we did that we would not be so sore - but I was wrong! So - the moral of the story is...DONT MISS BODY PUMP! Mondays class was less painful so it is tapering off.
Craig always talls me to write but he does so a great job of filling everyone in on the latest stuff - I feel I have nothing to write about. So after much consideration, and for those of you with nothing to do at work, I thought I'd tell you a little about me!!
I have come a long way - If someone told me 10 years ago that I would be teaching a weight training class - in front of others, I would have never believed it. I was 40 lbs overweight and the thought of speaking in front of people was enough to bring the smelling salts. I had been overweight since childhood, so I have heard every fat name in the book. After years of yo-yo dieting, I finally took control and began a lifestyle change of healthy eating and exercise. In 2001, I studied to become a personal trainer through International Sports Science Association. I passed, quit my job as a secretary, (which I hated), and got a job at a fitness center where I lived in Newnan, GA - I loved working in that environment! I was only there a few months when Craig, only a boyfriend then, asked me to move to Blacksburg, VA that November. I knew he was the 'man of my dreams' so I moved right on up - got a job at New Town Fitness - and the rest is history! Oh yes, Craig and I were married June 13. 2003 and he stated teaching with me about a year ago. I think we make a pretty good team! We motivate each other to work outand eat healthy, especially since he too used to be overweight. (maybe he could post our 'fat' pictures...)
OK...now it's time to go back to work!

This is Business?
Monday, June 27th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/25/05, Pg Bus 8: Two large pictures and 2/3 of page devoted to Paris Hilton and her Hardees ad.
-
The business section of the paper is typically anemic and irrelevant however it has hit an all time low with the hyping of this sex-star in a family paper, and in a major part of the business section to-boot!
-
Hello, look around, there are lots of interesting and successful businesses in the Valley to write about. Interview them, find out how they started, find out what makes them successful and how they are coping with competition and changing markets. How are their needs for skill and talent being met by students graduating from schools in the valley?
-
And if The Editor has a need to focus on Paris -- perhaps he could do it on the papers' web site since she is already featured at numerous sites and folks could just click on the links for her latest movies.

Korea forgotten?
Monday, June 27th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/25/05, Pg --- none
Looked throughout the paper for some reflection on the start of the Korean War 55 years ago. Only item I found was a letter to the editor.
-
June 25, 1950 Pres. Truman responded to the attack on South Korea by North Korea. The initial part of the war was a disaster for the US. We lost a lot of troops and were pushed back into the Pusan perimeter with our back to the ocean. It took Gen. McArthur's bold move at the Inchon landing before any positive actions were accomplished.
We suffered 37,000 killed and many times that wounded and missing.
-
If The Editor had been writing in those days he would have had a field-day waxing on with bad news about: bad politics, bad army, bad generals, bad equipment, and why don't we just capitulate and come home.
Perhaps that's why he chose not to cover this item today!
-
We may well be very close to another military action with North Korea. Click on the link for the background on the next confrontation:

Rove and the liberals
Monday, June 27th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/25/05, Pg Va 7: Karl Rove, who said the liberal response to the 9/11 attacks was to offer "therapy and understnading to our attackers" while conservatives prepared for war.
-
The fact is that Move-on and the Dean-team collected 700,000 signatures after 9/11 stating their position that we should not engage in any military action. We should arrest people and then make-nice with our enemies.
-
Perhaps The Editor could publish those 700,000 names and let us know who they are, what their agenda is, and what their plan is to protect the US and our people. Perhaps they could all go over to the middle-east and resolve their issues, their departure tomorrow might be a good thing!

Dick Cheney and reality
Monday, June 27th, 2005Dick Cheney and reality
Roanoke Times, 6/25/05, Pg Va 7: Gen. Abizaid's testimony confirmed the Iraq insurgency is far from its "last throes."
-
It's not clear what the context of Chaney's "the last throes" comment was. However, it is clear that tens of thousands of terrorists were trained in the AlQaida camps in Afganistan during Clinton's eight years and that all those animals are someplace and are trying hard to find a way to carryon their 9/11 program!
-
The reality is that folks like me believe that fighting them and killing them in Iraq is the lesser of the evils we could be faced with.
-
Perhaps The Editor has a better and more effective eradication program?

Stealth attack
Monday, June 27th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/24/05, Pg Va 6: The latest S/S proposal shows the depth of determination to shred the successful program in favor of a risky "ownership society".
-
Apparently The Editor has a phobia about the "ownership society".
Yet another S/S article by him without any definition or description of "the problem" or any potential options to fix the 2-4-1 problem.
-
It will be interesting to see how the young generation of taxpayers will view all this. They are paying a major amount into the system with no hope of getting a fair return. However they are well aware of IRA's, 401's, and annuities and how they relate to tax-deferred savings accumulation in their personal finances.
-
Many are also very aware that the civil service employee retirement system has a major investment component and that all major commercial retirement programs have major investments in bonds and even some stocks. If Corporations could contribute more of their income into vested retirement investments and less to taxes, their employees would be even better off.
-
It may turnout that the Democrat Party is on the verge of loosing a major part of the young voters by refusing to even participate in the development of options to save the system. What a sad sack of losers who are turning their backs on a major issue that is vital to the very people who have elected them to office.

FDA and Quality of Life
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/24/05, Pg A 14: FDA rejects implantable artificial heart. Unsure if a few extra months of life outweighed the serious side effects.
-
Kudos to the FDA for taking this appreach.
We all should focus on what medical procedures and tests are being done, particularly on senior citizens, and how these things relate to "quality of life".
It appears that there is often a BIG gap between what the service provider may call a "successful" procedure and what the patient may experience!
-
Perhaps the "do not resuscitate" concept needs to be significantly expanded!

Graduation rates
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/24/05, Pg 1: States inflate high school graduation rates, study says. Those numbers show "rampant dishonesty" says the author.
-
After reading through a pile of "apples and oranges" it appears that instead of going for flaming-headlines it would have been helpful if the author and The Editor had made some key items clear.
Are we counting students who enter high school from eight grade or are we counting students who enter their senior year from their junior year?
-
If we're counting eight grade students who graduate high school, it appears the number is about 70%.
If we're counting juniors that graduate, it appears the number is in the high 90's.
-
Perhaps "rampant dishonesty" or at least "slant" has crept into this article too.
-
After we get past the number thing, the key issue is what to do about the 30% of eight graders who do not graduate? We need a new and innovative program to help them achieve the skill and knowledge required by tomorrows jobs.
No wonder the unemployment rate is high and the incarceration rate is even higher.
-
In my youth, most of these folks were drafted into the Army, got away from their home environment, saw other communities and cultures, and learned the concept of work and responsibility and self esteem and the value of a dollar honestly earned. Getting rid of that program (the draft) was really a good thing wasn't it?

PETA out of the closet
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/23/05, Pg Va 4: Two NC counties stop giving animals to PETA after two PETA workers are accused of dumping euthanized animals.
-
This story brings two items into focus: One: do-good organizations like PETA sound really impressive when they talk about what to do, however, when they actually have to do something themselves, it turns out not to be so easy. Second: the animal abuse laws have gone way too far. By law the ONLY people who can euthanize your dog or cat is a veterinarian. This may be OK in the cities, but in the country this is way too restrictive.

Debate on Iraq
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/23/05, Pg Va 9: R. Scheer of the LA Times: "beginning to question the war in Iraq". "We may finally get a long-overdue national debate on ending the US occupation."
-
Where was Robert during 2004? Didn't we have over 12 months of presidential-national debate about the war starting with the awesome dozen? Didn't Dean and Moore and Move-on reach Robert way out there in LA?
-
And then we had an election.

Iraq Support
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/23/05, Pg 1: Dozens of leaders give Iraq support, vows of concrete aid. In Brussels, Iraq won wide and concrete support from the international community.
-
It would be a good thing if we now could just get The Editor, his media partners and the Democrat leadership to join the international community!
A united front in support of a free and democratic Iraq would do more to quell the violence than bullets and bombs.

Aljazeers’s US Senator Quaking
Saturday, June 25th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/22/05, Pg A 6: Durbin apoligizes for "Nazi" remark.
-
What a pathetic sight! The #2 Democrat in the US Senate with voice quaking now says the "Nazi, Soviet gulags and Cambodian butcher Pol Pot. Remarks" he made about our treatment of terorist-prisoners "may have crossed the line."
-
What has caused the members of the Democrat leadership to sink into such a low level of performance? Have the Deaniacs totally consumed them?

Lebanon Elections
Friday, June 24th, 2005Roanoke Times, 6/21/05, Pg A 9: Anti-Syrian coalition gets landslide victory.
-
Is there a cause and effect function going on in the middle-east? Let's see:
Afghanistan free of the Taliban and holding elections
Iraq free of Sadam, holding elections and writing a new Constitution
Libya turning in all their WMD's and joining the world community
The Israelis and Palestinians seriously working together in Gaza.
The Syrians pulling their troops out of Lebanon
The Lebanese holding elections
-
Is there something going on in the middle-east? Perhaps two things: seeing Sadam pulled out of a spider hole, and 200,000 American troops in the area!
-
But The Editor and his media partners and associated Democrats see a different middle-east where the only activity is suicide bombers and positive outcomes are blocked-out.
-
Perhaps they would have pulled out of the Pacific in 1944 when thousands of Jap-Kamikaze attacked our ships and troops. How can one win against such an enemy? Time to turn-tail and run!

Mountain Grit
Friday, June 24th, 2005
I'm excited that we've launched a new voice for the 1st District in Richmond. I was honored to second the nomination of Rex McCarty for the First District House of Delegates at the Democrat Caucus.
It takes courage to challenge an entrenched incumbent, but a fellow "Mack" can do it—he has the mountain grit and [...]
BodyPump 55 Gets Back To Basics
Thursday, June 23rd, 2005
>>> Updated 8/8/05:
>>> We now have BodyPump 55 in our hot little hands!
>>> Click Here to read our full review...
Even as 54 is just hitting the streets, a bit of BodyPump 55 promo material was recently published. From the info posted, it looks like ShapeShifters returns with "Back To Basics" for the warm-up, joined by Nu Pagadi with "Sweetest Poison" for the chest track. We've seen a lot of E-Type on past back & hamstring tracks, so they'll be right at home with "Olympia" on this release. Tricep dips make a comeback with this workout, followed by The Chemical Brothers' "Galvanize" during biceps. From the sounds of it, a tough shoulder track is in store, not to mention another installment of plate work with the abs. Rock on! (source: www.fitpro.com/bts/workshops.cfm)
