blind budget

News. Politics. Law. Public Affairs and Media from Cincinnati and all corners of Ohio. The Midwest views They be to suffer. Get If You undergo A Tip or Story Idea. COLUMBUS (TDB) -- The costliest program in the state budget -- Medicaid health compassionate for the poor and elderly -- is spending money faster than Gov. Ted Strickland and lawmakers projected earlier this year. A monthly financial inform from the Office of Budget and Management reports that costs were $34.6 million over estimates in October. It says the state's lousy job market may be one reason 18,500 more people than expected have signed up for government paid health care. The report warns of "increased concerns about the Medicaid budget for the remainder of the biennium." The express budget office also told the governor the economy would likely slow significantly next year. Over the next two years. Ohio planned to spend $18.4 billion on Medicaid. Strickland got the state's monthly financial report last week. The complete and it gives a snapshot of the express's income and expenses. It also tries to anticipate general economic trends that can affect Ohio and it sees a significant slowdown ahead in the coming months. The report does not use the word recession. "Looking ahead the widespread consensus is for a significant slowing in growth in the current quarter and during the first half of next year. The reasons are the ongoing deterioration in housing an expected slowdown in business investment and a very significant expected slowdown in consumer spending in response to the recent run-up in energy prices." On Medicaid the budget office appeared close to pressing an alarm button noting that caseloads have risen since the summer. Medicaid costs nearly as much as schools. $14.9 billion and colleges. $5.7 billion put together. Any unplanned growth in Medicaid spending clearly could get the state government in a grip. The budget office told Strickland: "For three consecutive months. Medicaid caseloads have exceeded the estimate. Currently there are 15,000 more recipients in the Covered Children and Families (CFC) population that expected with enrollment in the Healthy Families and Children in Care programs driving the change magnitude. CFC caseloads peaked in August 2006 and declined steadily through June 2007. This change state has been attributed to increased citizenship requirements under the federal Deficit Reduction Act of 2005. The forecast for FY 2008 and FY 2009 assumed that caseloads would increase however it now appears that the increase may be steeper than anticipated. "The Healthy Families category includes children and their parents with incomes up to 90% of the federal poverty check. Enrollment increases in this category may be due to economic factors or successful outreach to eligible families who had not previously sought Medicaid coverage. At the end of the first quarter. Aged. Blind and Disabled caseloads undergo exceeded the estimate by 3,500 recipients. It is important to note that while this increase is small this is the most expensive population group in the Medicaid schedule and is driving spending above the estimate in many categories of service."

#1 This blonde female singer was hit on Sunday night by another woman. When the singer realized what was going on she replied. "Ewwww. That's sick." How about that for some tolerance huh?#2 This aging B list television comedy actress left the lot her show is filmed on yesterday after finding out production had been halted. As she was driving away she lowered the window on her car and said to the picketing writers. "have fun boys."In keeping my commitment to making the strike end sooner here is a blind item about a producer. Tomorrow if there is no settlement it will be the turn of a writer. This producer from a wealthy family is famous for his low budget productions and his screwing of actresses and actors both literally and figuratively. His M. O is to get his cast to sign what appear to be lucrative back end gross percentage deals. The actresses are in particular thankful and he uses this as a tool to sleep with them. He keeps this up during the filming. After the film is released he claims the movie has not made any money and in fact has lost so much that he has to declare bankruptcy in the corporation he established for the film thus denying all the payments owed to cast members. He then dumps the actress in question and when confronted by agents and managers offers a ridiculously low settlement while he keeps adding to his fortune and moves on to his next film and actress. #1-no clue-I could see Jessica Simpsn but not sure....#2-One of the Desperate Housewives? 1. Could be Jess could be Hilary.. to vague to be of any use.2. Patricia Heaton http://news yahoo com/s/ap/20071106/ap_en_tv/hollywood_labor;_ylt=Asm8mpCwzEIbPZv14bM cYdxFb8CI guess its fair to say Julia Louis Dreyfus is suspect although I dont know if anyone would call her b list or aging as she looks fantastic and was on Seinfeld and has an Emmy or two. I don't know anything about any producers but what an awesomely juicy blind item! Be careful. Ent; you almost make me want the strike to continue so we'll get more of these. didn't bob yari or whatever his name is screw over everybody who was involved with "Sideways" and "Crash". 1 gotta be Jess she tried it with Cece and don't like it no more12 i thought of heaton too 3 who cares they are either using the producer to get a job or just stupid for accepting the deal! 1. Carrie Underwood or Hilary or Jessica.2. Joely Fisher OR Christina Applegate. She is sort of aging (she's been on TV a long time what with her Married W/ Children days) and it said she is on a comedy (Samantha Who)3. No clue but hmmm. 1. Don't know and don't care. Just because the personal thought is disgusting to her doesn't mean she's intolerant. Personally. I can't picture it either without gagging but that doesn't mean I'm intolerant. And by the way the thought of being with a woman is equally disgusting to my male gay friends. 2. Patricia Heaton.3. Not interested. I think it's time for some reveals. I'm really falling asleep here since the Timmy/Shimmy disaster. C'mon all you writers and producers that read this blog.. sign up and start spilling!!Additionally it is OK if you add some blinds of your own in the comments section (hint hint??)... I am sure dear ol' ENTY won't mind. Just another question? In america is it derogatory to say "have fun boys?"; just wondering?C U all around... Noel. I don't think so. I think she was just showing some support of them. Or am I missing something people? Yeah I'm wondering about the Patrica Heaton thing. Seems kinda snarky to say but it may not have been entirely mean spirited. Maybe just something stupid she said because she couldnt think of anything better. Anyone else notice that EL hasnt done any reveals in a LONG time? "Have fun boys" to people on strike is insensitive. (Strikes aren't fun more so if you live pay-cheque to pay-cheque) This sounds like someone who doesn't respect unions or the whole striking process- a very right leaning Republican. Patricia Heaton. ENTAre you running out of material because the first 2 blind items stink. Was I the only one who read them and thought.. ok so what? And saying "ewww that's sick" is not intollerant. I bet Tom Cruise would have the same reaction if "Kate" ever actually wanted to get it on with him. It's hard to say what the intention was behind saying that. It could have been fuck you or I know it's going to be a tough thing for you. It's stupid to assume. Trix what an original thought. I think Twisted Sister noticed just a few posts above yours. If "have fun boys" was meant as support then this isn't Patricia Heaton. She probably equates unions with abortion and suicide bombers. If said sarcastically (like - I'm going home getting paid while you have to strike) then she might be the one. The producer sounds like Steve Bing the father of Elizabeth Hurley's illegitimate child. He comes from a wealthy well known family in NYC. Also he originally denied parenthood of the bastard so he sounds a little douche-y. 1- Jessica Simpson. that in no way means she is intolerant. you'd get the same reaction from me and Im as gay friendly as Hamburger Mary's during Pride week. Maybe the chick was fugly. Come on now THAT'S PC EL! Anthony please don't refer to an innocent child as a bastard. He or she had nothing to do with it douchebag father or not. How much does a writer on a sitcom or late night talk show (like Letterman for example) make? I'm just curious. Like can you afford to not work for a while if the strike goes on? I want to say Carrie Underwood and Christina Applegate. Everyone hates on Patricia Heaton (may be deserved i dunno) before I saw "Comedy". I wanted to say Sally Field for kicks. Anon.. ok.. way to go out of your way to be negative to a complete stranger.. didja want me to kiss Twisted Sister's ass as penance? 1. I think we can rule out Britney haha. No for reals this reeks of Chestica.2. Patricia Heaton. I don't care what she seemed like on "Raymond" the woman is a bitch! Julia Louis Dreyfus was reported as joining the picket line so I don't think it's her - unless she was driving off after her stint on the line and just saying a friendly goodbye. #3... Jack Rapke? Never heard of him but there is that random pic with Allison Lohman down below. You don't ever see her on her or him either for that matter. A hint? Bastard by definition is a fatherless child. Now you're sensitive to the plight of children though you can insult all the gay people you want calling them 'sick'. (ahhhh but that's right - you have tons of gay friends so that makes it okay.)I don't see how it's okay for someone to say 'ew that's sick' instead of 'no thank you. I'm straight' and then in the next breath say someone can't refer to a child born out of wedlock the textbook defined word. I usually agree with you Sister but not today sorry. Rule out Julia Louis-Dreyfuss... there are pics of her picketing with the writers. Tina Fey has been pictured too (though no one guessed her)I think Jess Simpson for #1 Melissa. WHERE did I EVER say that gay people are sick??? I would never say that because it's bullshit so kindly don't misquote me. And really talk to gay people. They think screwing a straight person is sick. That's just the way it is. And yoohoo up there invoking my name please leave me out of whatever you two are bitching about okay? What Jax said. I am really pissed. You can disagree with me all you want but do not EVER fucking misquote me. I agree w/ AnthonydeSantis and Melissa; bastard is the correct term if a bit archaic in usage. 1 two things. 1) it's Carrie Underwood not Jessica Simpson 2) not necessarily intolerant but it is rude and immature. # 1 - Sounds like Underwood.# 2 - Sounds like Heaton being snarky. At this point legally there are no bastards. By virtue of a child's existence they have a father. He may choose not to recognize the child but the child obviously has a father somewhere. It took centuries but it's definitely a "du-uh." Anyway doubt it's Bing but don't really have any other ideas. There's certainly no shortage of con producers in town. 'At this point legally there are no bastards. By virtue of a child's existence they have a father. He may choose not to recognize the child but the child obviously has a father somewhere.'Um no one is being accused of parthenogenesis; obviously every child has a biological father. But since it's obviously confusing to at least ONE individual the definition of a bastard:noun 1. A child born out of wedlock adjective 1. Born of unwed parents; illegitimate. That's the American Heritage Dictionary's definition not mine; your beef is with them. Moving on though usage of bastard in such a context is archaic and(in my own opinion)rather unnecessary. I believe AnthonydeSantis was being flippant not spiteful; either way if you have a problem with it take it up with the First Amendment. And yes though I'm no fan of Liz Hurley. I think we can all agree that the REAL bastard in the custody case was Steven Bing. i immediately thought of Jessica Simpson for the first one why is Heaton hated so much? i really don't know much (ok nothing!) about her but i keep reading that she's some animal bitch and am just curious as to why?can anyone enlighten me please! oh and i agree with you Twisted it's been far too long since we've had a reveal....... twisted sister: get a fucking life and quit getting worked up in the comment sections on blogs you're a miserable intolerant and intolerable homophobe. twisted sister: "can't picture it either without gagging" and "disgusting" - no let the record show you never said it was "sick." And here I thought that 'some'. 'anon' and 'trix' were the same person posting with precisely 4-character usernames and being rude all the time in EL's blog. Oh marian please. People like you WANT to look for bullshit so think whatever the fuck you want. And marian and Melissa it's really interesting how other people expressed the same sentiment but you chose ME to pile on. Agenda? Fuck off the two of you. hey old cranky farts..... relax... stop typing.. stop cursing.. you're boring... so sad Going back to the blind items now... I could care less about the first two blind items. Both are very boring. For the producer blind wasn't there stories about John Singleton screwing the Hustle and Flow actors out of money? Wasn't Taryn Manning very vocal about it?I don't know if JS is from a wealthy family though. Hez said on her blog that the CDANCON recap was "complicated" and she wasn't sure how to explain it but an explanation would come soon. Of course that makes one think that the weekend/event had more to it than just a nice lunch. Sure she might suddenly be so busy at work that she can't spare any time but it doesn't add up. I think it is to generate some discord while simultaneously avoiding the reality that it wasn't that successful. I don't know if DS was actually there or not. She isn't that huge of a star that it isn't feasible of course and the photos seem to be her. But if she is a willing participant in all this then why would techno-savvy (and starstruck) Hez fail to document her voice or any conversation? Hez is into digital photography (look at her flickr account she opened for all to see) and even on her site brags about acquiring a new version of Adobe Photoshop. She is a freelance writer and public relations person. This was the best she could do for her own conference? I doubt it. If DS is Hez/Ent's friend and is in on this why wouldn't they get a video of her saying "Hi it's me,love ya. Ent!" or something? Instead people disingeniously say why should she bother no one would believe her anyway...(what?!). On Flickr. Hez's contacts (or whatever) include Domestic Chicky the same advertiser on this site who Ent credits for helping with his technical stuff and site. Ent and Hez both use citiscapes on their identically organized blogs. Hez uses the same citiscape on the site she organized for CDANCON. Hez sounds like Ent. Ent does not sound like any lawyer I know and it defies logic that he spends all day digging up and commenting on this stuff "for us."Hez was a moderator on the board and started most of the topics. Hez chimes in with clarification for Ent every time there is any confusion. Hez rarely just comments on the site she loves so usually she just clarifies what Ent meant or plans to do. There are times esp when the site is down or experiencing problems that she mysteriously comments on how she doesn't know what is up as if she has silently been reading it all along. Hez apparently knows Ent personally. She introduced him to the swimsuit designer that Hez represents and that he plugged on his site a few days ago (the designer gave his famous clients swag and Hez is her PR person - wouldn't they probably meet face to face after all that? That part defies logic. He fills her in on his plans and helped tout her conference organize gift giveaways and the plans for it on his site. Hez also somehow personally got to know Dom. Swain enough to email with her like friends and to convince her to be "keynote speaker" at the lunch. Apparently. "Ent" did not pay for the lunch (after all that fuss in his name!). Hez and the attendees had to. Ent is supposedly a rich attorney and Dom. Swain has done him favors and he won't pay for the lunch or help organize accommodations. Yet Hez who admits to having to pennypinch has to have the attendees help pay. Makes sense. I think Hez runs this site while doing her other gigs/blogs. That could be why so many of the commenters are weirdly from Vancouver. I think Hez has a lot of friends and some are in on this and either help her or are some of the commenters that keep the site going and the Ent fan base strong (esp the strongly sarcastic/flippant ones). I am not saying this site doesn't have its own readers. I just think there are commenters planted to keep it going when it is slow or when Ent/Hez need defending. It is a fun site - I read it almost daily. I don't want it to go away. I just think this latest conference thing turned out to be a bit insulting to regular readers. I think the lawyer persona should go away and Hez if it is her should just keep up the gossip commentary with the occasional blind that she somehow is able to dig up true or not. Don't bother writing hateful replies because I don't care! And I read this because I choose to even aware of the hypocrisy so go figure! Phooey,Thanks for the post it was interesting.... and I admire that you are able to state your well thought out opinion without being rude and/or vulgar. I just have to say though.... I am one of the people from Vancouver and I really do not know Hez or Ent or anyone from this blog outside of this blog. I don't think any of us know each other in the real world.... I don't think there are that many posters from Vancouver (I think there are four of us?).. maybe we are just more vocal about where we are from?? Phooey if you read the comments on her site it also sounded like Hez was pissed off because Enty only gave her a one way ticket to LA and didn't help her book a hotel room. I guess when you're a public relations person you can't afford to pay your own way and have no idea how to book a room yourself. P. R does stand for public relations doesn't it? Sorry bmini for being wrong on that part. It does seem like there are an inordinate number of Vancouver commenters but it obviously is coincidence in your case! I am not saying I know anything just speculating. Of course. I could have the whole thing wrong who knows! HARRIET --To answer your question: Guild minimum for a 5 day a week talk show writer hovers around $3000/week. For an anonymous sitcom writer the salary usually is around 4 to 6000 per week plus $18 to $21000 per full episode script they write. The average staff writer writes two full epsiode scripts themselves per season (at the 18 to 20 per) and in addition collects their weekly salary for 36 to 40 weeks per year. It definitely is a lot compared to a real world job but take home pay after taxes agents managers etc is significantly lower. Plus they get residuals. (In most jobs like building homes people get paid once and just because the new owner then sells the house it doesn't mean the original builder gets a percentage everytime it changes hand). As for actors and residuals.. remember when the casts of "Seinfeld" and "The Simpsons" held out for bigger back-end percentage based on the success of the show? Well judging by that logic every project they've been involved with that has failed they should give their money back to the producers. Because if they feel responsible for a show's success they should also take the responsibility for its failure. But that's just me. "As for actors and residuals.. remember when the casts of "Seinfeld" and "The Simpsons" held out for bigger back-end percentage based on the success of the show?

Because if they feel responsible for a show's success they should also take the responsibility for its failure."Wrong! They held out for bigger pay for exactly the right reasons - that they were all to recognizable as characters on hit shows and would NOT be able to carry other shows because of the huge exposure of the successful character. Friends and Seinfeld actors knew exactly what was coming and wanted some protection. None of them get points in current profits (neither do writers so you are wrong there too) so they all opted to hold out for a bigger per episode contract. Nice job Phooey!!! I like what you said and I'm impressed. TS- PUBIC Relations cracked me up! Too cute!!I also believe Hezzers is Ent. And I'm fine with it. I have noticed that the Timmy crapola lost alot of regular posters which is a shame. There are a few names we never see any more and that's ashame. Although I rarely read now too. I'm no Hezbian though... I really don't care much for her at all. Oh- and there than one "anon".... I'm the one who thinks Ent is an ASSHOLE :) For the record. I think the aging tv star is Jean Smart on Samantha Who... Christina Applegate's "mother".... The main thing that has never added up for me regarding Ent vs. Hez as being owner of this blog is how the hell do you post three four times a day complete with carefully uploaded photos and wonderfully snarky text (because I love it all!) while maintaining a career as an entertainment lawyer? Unless you're very low down on the totem pole like a legal assistant or something? But even then don't they work your ass ragged because you're still a flunky?I had a blog for a while devoted to Angelina Jolie. It was an experiment to see if I could earn money via Adsense while having fun posting about a fascinating celeb. I very quickly found out that even posting once or twice a day was EXTREMELY time consuming. So when I look at how many posts are going up here it just doesn't add up as a lawyer doing all this work. That said. I still have fun here and I greatly appreciate all the effort that goes into this place! Put some Googleads on here already so your blog can start paying you something. Blogads don't always pay very much unless there is real synergy behind the advertizer and the blog audience. Is anybody here really interested in blooming teas or whatever? I'd be far more likely to click on a google ad related to some kind of celebrity material like ringtones dvd's etc. Just my two cents! I believe in rewarding bloggers for all their hard work because I know firsthand how much work it involves. So let me click on your adsense ads already!LM LM - I completely agree with you. There is NO WAY that an attorney in any industry would have the time to sit on the computer. NO WAY! In fact no attorney would want to. They're too stressed out to bother with bullshit like celebrity gossip. Of course EL isn't an attorney. And I think Phooey is right in saying that more than one person "contributes" to the blog. It's too bad the Shimmy/Timmy fiasco led to hard feelings and jumping of the ship. I miss a lot of the regulars that used to come here. I think some of us stay because we enjoy the community not because we believe it's one attorney putting the site together. I miss some of the oldies too. Timmy really ruined it for me. Now this fiasco with the convention. I really think it's just not the same anymore. The Timmy/Shimmy thing ruined it on one level for me but I still enjoy reading a lot of the gossip here rather than going to several sources - and to be honest. I trust outside gossip more now that the Timmy/Shimmy incident took place. And again. I like the people. Even when I get into scraps with people it's over the next day as far as I'm concerned (well in almost all cases - there are a couple of people whose names I see and just blow past their posts without wasting my time reading them). I'm not getting what the fiasco is about the lunch though. Why is it a fiasco? The blind item about the producer is a little too much candid. Royalty calculation one of the most widespread source of litigations between producers and other parties supposed to get a share on grosses. Many deals don't specify if the share is net or gross. The guys who sign the deal assume it is gross the studio claim it is net minus the costs of promotion distribution etc. Through "creative accounting" fairly successful movies can actually stay in the red for years. And for big hits hundreds of millions are at stake. Just look at the litigations over "Lord of the Rings". Saul Zaentz (who owns the rights to the novel) won $94m as his share was miscalculated and Peter Jackson and his wife have also sued New Line for similar reasons. The same methods are also quite widespread in music. For instance. Roger McGuinn leader of The Byrds claims he has never received any royalty from his labels as a recording artist (writing royalties are handled separately). He just got the advancee from the record company and after 35 years. "Mr. Tambourine Man" was still supposed to be in the red (the album reissue costs are put in the expenses column for instance). Most active artists never notice the trick from the beginning because they're living on the advances. It's only a few years later that they realize they have never got a dime from their big hit and it's too late for them to renegociate their contracts. Any entertainment lawyer in L. A is supposed to know this. Artists get screwed everyday. The only original thing about this blind item is that the guy shags the female lead (then why did Steve Bing if it's him invest $40m of his own money into "The Polar Express"?) and declares every time bankruptcy for the company that produced the movie. It's quite shady and would get the attention of many investors and insiders. I think there are only about 4 of us from Vancouver (cyberfriends like Jax bmini orbison - anyone I missed?) so there goes that tired old canard. And yes. I have friends on my Flickr page that are also on CDAN. SHOCKING. I know! Sorry be right back - I think 60 Minutes is at the door. Just because I "do" Communications and PR doesn't mean I'm making money from it.. or have any skill at event planning. If someone with actual CORPORATE PR experience like Mistik had run the conference. I can assure you all it would have been smooth as silk. We would have had a working video camera a real venue and a lot of other stuff. As it is we had a gathering and I had a bloody good time. I don't know why on earth I am explaining this but PR is a sideline - I work for friends and artists and am usually paid in beer bathing suits or bud. Wanna make me feel bad about that? The line forms behind my dad. I've never met Ent in person. I don't know who he is and I've stopped thinking I ever will after being unable to connect with him in LA. Yeah. I was pissy about that. So sue me. I offered to put on a "conference" for fun to meet the people I like to meet DS and to help out an internet buddy who kept me entertained this last year when some heavy personal shit was going down for me. To get shat on after the fact by someone who didn't attend didn't support it doesn't even believe it happened and is going to trash talk me and this blog no matter what anyway.. well. I guess I expected all of that and that's why I'm busy with a lot of other things right now none of which have included revealing personal details about my life in little comment boxes on this website. I think I'll be doing even less of that in the future. #2 - I don't think it could be Heaton considering this pic http://admin deadlinehollywooddaily com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/photo jpgBut what do I know? you sure ad alot of time to reply yet no time to post about the conference in the past- what- days of hectic activity surrounding your job?i'm just sayin... To set the record straight. I never questioned whether the conference took place. I questioned why you (Hez) couldn't get audiotape or video of DS. I am sorry if you feel "shat upon," Hez. You have provided so much information about your personal life to the people on this site (via your blog saying you correspond with Ent and he asked you to be a moderator saying DS emails you personally and finally setting up this conference and CDANCON site). It is a little hard to feel sorry for you feeling that your privacy is violated. No one is demanding that you "prove yourself" to not be Ent or asking for your head. I expressed my opinion that you are Ent based on what appears to me to be logical connections. If you aren't laugh it off and be flattered that you have developed such a personality on this site. You opened yourself up to all of this. Every link to your blog or your CDANCON site lists bios and resumes of yours and you do hold yourself out to be a public relations person with extensive experience at seminars and conferences. You post your photography and you filmed videos for your blog and you bragged up a job at "a behind the scenes of making movies" site where you blog with indepth knowledge about movies/producing. It is not believable that you wouldn't know how to organize a small get-together and videotape or somehow get footage of DS at the lunch. Overall you didn't who cares? Don't worry about writing about the lunch or your trip there. I don't think anyone really cares at this point anymore so don't do anyone any favors. If you are NOT ent maybe you should just focus on other blogs because your involvement in this one got a little weird. Hey Twisted Sister - what's with all the swearing? A little too defensive. Yes. I'm a lesbian but no agenda here. You lost your vocabulary to swearing because you believed you were misquoted. I simply pointed out you indeed did not use the word "sick" - what's with all the hate?On another subject several posters have referenced the "Timmy/Shimmy disaster" - can anyone explain the disaster part to me please? I'm familiar with Timmy/Shimmy as I read most of the postings here on the blog but what about it made people leave the site? marian. I will calmly ask you to go back and read through what I wrote. I never said being gay is sick. NEVER. It isn't. I won't even try to explain what I meant for fear I'll be misquoted again. And yes. I swear when I'm mad and being misquoted so that I'm made to look like I'm something I'm not. It infuriates me. If there are rules here about language kindly point them out to me because I never got the memo. The Timmy/Shimmy fiasco. You know the story right? Then you know that part of the story on the front end was that the man received an award for a role he played that he was in movies playing the part of a woman etc. This gave off an impression that wasn't the story that was given during the reveal. The real story is that Timmy did some stand in work for Shimmy and Shimmy won the award for the work she did. Timmy didn't win anything. He was just a stand-in. It was very misleading and a lot of people lost trust in anything posted here and decided to leave. If you do a search for Timmy/Shimmy and read through all his hints and read the reveal you'll see what I'm talking about. The blind item sounded like one thing and ended up to be something else. A lot of people spent time researching things so they felt duped and misled and left. Some of us felt duped and misled and stayed. And I don't know about the rest. Phooey. I want to thank you for that exchange of emails we had this morning. My anger at you completely dissolved and I am glad we got to a point of mutual understanding. I feel really good about it now. I thanked you on my blog too. Thanks and best wishes to you and yours... Thanks. Twisted Sister for taking the time to explain the Timmy/Shimmy fiasco to me - I appreciate it. I had no idea there was such backlash from it. You're welcome marian. Hope all of this other stuff is behind us and we can get back to just having fun here. That's the way it will be on my end.

is an excellent book by James Fallows. Published in 2006 it is originally comprised of a series of articles Fallows wrote for Atlantic Monthly chronicling the lead-up to and execution of the Iraq War by the Bush Administration. It is required reading for anyone who wants details of what exactly the Bush Administration did (and worse didn't do) in invading Iraq. Below. I would desire to share with you a passage I recently read which points out the horrible consequences of the way the Iraq War hemorrhages American tax dollars. But hey at least the Iraq War is making us safer alter? Because of outlays for Iraq the United States cannot spend $150 billion for other defensive purposes. Some nine million shipping containers enter American ports each year; only 2 percent of them are physically inspected because inspecting more would be too expensive. The Department of Homeland Security created after 9/11 is a vast grab bag of federal agencies from the Coast Guard to the Border Patrol to the former Immigration and Naturalization function; on-going operations in Iraq cost significantly more each month than all Homeland Security expenses combined. The department has sought to back up cities large and small to improve their "first responder" systems especially with better communications for their blast and emergency medical services. This pass a survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors found that fewer than a accommodate of 231 major cities under review had received any of the aid they expected. An internal budget memo from the administration was leaked this past move. It said that outlays for virtually all domestic programs including homeland security would undergo to be cut in 2005–and the federal budget deficit would still be more than $450 billion. beat of all the government-wide effort to wage war in Iraq crowded out efforts to design a broader strategy against Islamic extremists and terrorists; to this day the administration has articulated no comprehensive long-term intend. It dismissed out of hand any connection between policies toward the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and increasing tension with many Islamic states. Regime change in Iraq it said would have a sweeping symbolic effect on worldwide sources of terror. That seems to have been true–but in the opposite way from what the president intended. It is hard to sight a counterterrorism specialist who thinks that the Iraq War has reduced rather than increased the threat to the United States. And here is the startling move. There is no evidence that the president and those closest to him ever talked systematically about the "opportunity costs" and trade-offs in their decision to invade Iraq. No one has pointed to a meeting a memo a full set of discussions about what America would gain and lose.

From a California school teacher - - -"As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration there are some things that you should be aware of:I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high educate which is designated a call 1 school meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels. Most of the schools you are hearing about. South GateHigh. Bell Gardens. Huntington lay etc. where these students are protesting are also Title 1 schools. Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast and free lunch program. When I say free breakfast. I'm not talking a glass of milk and turn -- but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT bring home the bacon)I calculate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones. The educate also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)I was ordered to spend $700,000 on my department or risk losing funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center half of which one month later have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female teachers calling them "Putas" whores and throwing things that the teachers were in tears. Free medical free education free food day compassionate etc. etc etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights privileges and entitlements?To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs. Higher insurance medical facilities closing higher medical.

Eddie Lang was probably the finest white guitarist in his field in the 1920s. He was born Salvatore Massaro in Philadelphia on October 25th 1902. His first instrument was the violin and it was while taking lessons as a boy that he became friends with Joe Venuti another back up generation Italian American. As come up as violin. Lang also played banjo and guitar and it was the latter instrument that he began to concentrate on after he turned professional in 1918. He worked as a guitar for hire all over the North East states during the first half of the twenties and even had a stint in London during the pass of 1925/6. On his go to the States he settled in New York and it was there that he was reunited with Venuti in Joe Venuti’s Big Four a successful and prolific small band with a then revolutionary lead instrumentation of violin and guitar. In May 1927. Lang recorded his first solo guitar session which included a technically brilliant version of the function from Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Op. 3 No. 2. In September the following year he became one of the first white musicians to play with a black band when he joined Clarence Williams’ color Five for a New York go out accompanying blues legend Victoria Spivey. Through working with Spivey. Lang met her then preserve Lonnie Johnson and over a period of around twelve months the pair laid down some of the finest acoustic guitar instrumentals of that era or indeed any since. Their first studio go out together on November 15th 1928 was spent backing blues shouter Alger ‘Texas’ Alexander but two days later they were back recording the first of their guitar duets – “Two mouth Stomp” and “Have To dress Keys To compete These Blues”. Despite the obvious allusions of the title of “Two mouth Stomp”. Lang was billed as alter Willie Dunn on the record when it was issued by Okeh. The preserve industry was as deeply segregated as the rest of American society in the twenties and it was deemed unacceptable to air a preserve where a white man and a black man were clearly playing together as friends and equals. Lang and Johnson cut advance tracks in May 1929 both guitar duets and as part of a quartet called Blind Willie Dunn’s Gin Bottle Four (which included future bandleader Tommy Dorsey on trumpet). The unify’s final session together took place on October 29th. By this measure Lang had joined Paul Whiteman’s Orchestra – just about the biggest gig you could get back then. He continued working with Venuti but there was no more masquerading in the studio as Blind Willie Dunn. The depression was beginning to bite and as is always the case the poorest suffered first and hardest. The first sector of the recording industry to be hit hard was the so-called “race” merchandise – blues singers jug bands string bands and the like – and so there were no further opportunities for Lang and Johnson to preserve together. Eddie Lang made a final studio appearance with Joe Venuti on February 28th 1933 just a few days before he was to go into hospital for a routine tonsillectomy. The operation was botched and he suffered a massive haemorrhage. He died on March 26th 1933 aged just 30. There are a number of solid budget compilations of Lang’s work available. Some give a general overview of his career whilst others concentrate on his work with Joe Venuti. In August this year. BGO issued a 32 track double CD which concentrates on the work that Lang did with Lonnie Johnson. It’s called and is a straight reissue of a bring together of earlier vinyl albums. It’s recommended cram – not just for blues and hot jazz fans but for anyone who is interested in tracing back to the influences of modern masters like John Fahey. Loren Connors and Richard Bishop.
