'ALEC, GOP undermine our constitutional guarantees'

Here's a candidate for best<a href="http://staugustine.com/opinions/2013-10-25/ideology-trumps-reason#.UmrZnfmkqjd" rel="nofollow"> Letter to the Editor</a> Ever. <br /><br />Nancy Staples wrote about <a href="http://alecexposed.org/" rel="nofollow">ALEC</a>, the corporate escort service for state lawmakers, in a well-reasoned letter to <a href="http://staugustine.com/">StAugustine.com</a>. She began,<br /><blockquote>Our United States Constitution was a compromise between many very strong willed men who often held opposing views about government. </blockquote><blockquote>They had the courage to look at both points of view and find a solution. Not so today. </blockquote><blockquote>The wisdom and reason that has allowed this nation to function for over 200 years, is missing, and the word compromise does not exist.</blockquote>She reminds us of what we all know: That political discussion in this country is divisive and vitriolic, and the words "freedom" and "patriot" are used to demean opposing points of view.<br /><br />And she calls out the Republican Party and ALEC: <br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">The Republican party I belonged to for many years was inclusive, but it has been usurped into a corporate shill for the wealthy, with the American Legislative Exchange Council as its guide. Our Republican representatives use ideology rather than reason for every law they make and every vote they cast. </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">They disrespect, not only our president, but the very institution of government which they claim to represent and swear an oath to protect. </blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq">I respect people who do not share my personal political and spiritual beliefs or ethical standards. But that idea of having respect for our differences died and has been replaced by vitriol.</blockquote>And she nails the problem on the head:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">As long as self-interest (Gerrymandered districts), greed (unlimited campaign contributions) and PAC and corporate influence (Heritage Foundation, Koch brothers) wield the power over decisions our representatives make, “We The People”, will never have what our constitutional guarantees.</blockquote>True that.

Thomas Bullett, Charles and Andrew Lewis were part of the militia and surveyors during the French and Indian War. They were told of the many healing qualities of the waters in the area around present day Hot Springs, Virginia. In 1764, at the end of the war, Captain Bullett received Gold and Silver for his services and received a colonial land grant of 300 acres which contained seven natural mineral springs from Colonel George Washington.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis_Ihh2bFYvDmDIaiS11iC8DZHS5RycVoFU4KFRd1FBveRFPbnsAeTxwKYVFs3PTe9JdHxMhyphenhyphenVUa_lrEdRl0wG6zd9fM0RUByyRmz_4s2RPUsTupAlw6udthdiTcqwvKdyJyMreZCOfolS/s1600/9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="227" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis_Ihh2bFYvDmDIaiS11iC8DZHS5RycVoFU4KFRd1FBveRFPbnsAeTxwKYVFs3PTe9JdHxMhyphenhyphenVUa_lrEdRl0wG6zd9fM0RUByyRmz_4s2RPUsTupAlw6udthdiTcqwvKdyJyMreZCOfolS/s400/9.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">After receiving the land grant, Captain Bullett moved his militia company and their families to the area. Within two years, the land was cleared and an 18-room wooden hotel was completed. In 1766, The Homestead was opened and named in honor of the homesteaders who built the resort and bathhouses. From 1764 till 1778, Colonel Bullett along with his family operated the resort.

He was a prominent physician and is responsible for the European style of many different spa therapies. One of the most famous treatments still in use is the Cure, which is a salt scrub followed by a Swiss shower.

Ingalls, a prominent lawyer from Cincinnati, Ohio came to the area in 1881, while doing research for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Company. The railroad was looking to expand the lines into the area when Mr. Ingalls came upon the resort. For almost seven years, Mr. Ingalls, J. P. Morgan, and many other investors came to an agreement to purchase The Homestead and build a spur into the Hot Springs area. Within the first year of ownership, the investors raised over $1 million to build a whole new hotel.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW0oERLSrIPPMFVR9lFGVXZNj-cTMD926f9jImkzBKKsb15TvxWtjJakBKy05WZ8hBFxtUhLiJHR9_VWpSV1UcH7R24cerkUUfXu0MsBZWqOvmBg-R5RYZEdMxwk11wFQ4tTkLv0AmM39Z/s1600/16.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="307" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiW0oERLSrIPPMFVR9lFGVXZNj-cTMD926f9jImkzBKKsb15TvxWtjJakBKy05WZ8hBFxtUhLiJHR9_VWpSV1UcH7R24cerkUUfXu0MsBZWqOvmBg-R5RYZEdMxwk11wFQ4tTkLv0AmM39Z/s400/16.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">On July 2, 1901, a fire, which started in the pastry shop, burned the entire resort.

With the smoke and embers still in the distance and insurance not available, they came to the conclusion to rebuild the resort. Within a year, March 10, 1902, the Great Hall was completed and the Homestead was back in business. Former guests of the resort were returning to the grand hotel they loved. Within two years, the West Wing was added.<br /><br />In 1911, the Ingalls family acquired the resort. The East Wing was added in 1914, and M.E. Ingalls, Sr. passed away. In 1921, the Empire, Crystal, Garden rooms and Theatre were completed and in 1929, our tower was finished. The last major addition during the Ingalls family ownership was the Garden Wing in 1973.<br /><br />In 1993 Club Resorts, a part of ClubCorp, acquired The Homestead and began a total restoration. In 2001 The Homestead unveiled a new Grand Ballroom and outdoor pool, along with state-of-the-art snowmaking for the ski area and a new Shooting Club House and Pavilion.<br /><br />In 2012, "The Next Chapter" was launched with the addition of Allegheny Springs - a new children's play zone, family pool, 400 ft. lazy river and water slides.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDaCGw86VLBxbOu2vGeQDfmMJPGq0hBuongrAiUEQRhB82SnKylgts4-M-82jewteEqnxkX-BRXSwUIjVCnhGwWyN-7ayGg1ITgyYgZdr7CYEgIq-JfRucS7JFbKc5g77ElsE1B5ZjMNMY/s1600/14.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="283" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDaCGw86VLBxbOu2vGeQDfmMJPGq0hBuongrAiUEQRhB82SnKylgts4-M-82jewteEqnxkX-BRXSwUIjVCnhGwWyN-7ayGg1ITgyYgZdr7CYEgIq-JfRucS7JFbKc5g77ElsE1B5ZjMNMY/s400/14.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thehomestead.com/sam-sneads-tavern">Sam Snead's Tavern</a>.</div><br /><br />Photos by Lynn R.

There Is Nothing Quite Like This Raspberry Ketones Max Method

<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Shepard Guillemin</div><br /><br /> <div class='uawarticle'>Since most of us today are obese and overweight, we turn into food supplements and exercise programs to aid us in our mission to get rid of those unwanted fats. These products and programs may be effective, but only a handful can really deliver the desired result.<br /> <br /> What Super Foods Are Best? When it comes to choosing super foods, you should first put in some thought as to what your overall goals are. If you are younger, then your goals might be to get your skin and hair looking better, while as you age, your goal might be to fight aging or to get rid of wrinkles. Many super foods are sold almost primarily because of the fact that in addition to being tasty or full of vitamins, they also help you to lose weight. If you are overweight, obese, or you just have trouble keeping your weight down, then raspberry ketones might be the right product for you.<br /> <br /> What Are Raspberry Ketones? If you like raspberries, then you are luck. You are already getting raspberry ketones as part of your diet, but in no way are you getting enough to do anything more than tickle your taste buds. It literally takes bushels of raspberries in order for you to get any kind of health benefit from this fruit, so finding a raspberry ketone supplement is something that can make getting those nutrients a lot easier.<br /> <br /> The Nutritional Supplement Alone, raspberry ketone is a potent compound that aids in body's ability to lose weight fast. It can be purchased alone as pure ketone extract or combined with other well known ingredients such as green tea,acai berries, or African mango. Together, each of these nutritious and natural elements mixed with raspberry ketone will pack a big punch to the fatty tissue in your body.<br /> <br /> Raspberries are known for their high levels of antioxidants that help the body fight of diseases and damage to cells. Also, the hormonal adinopectin protein aids in the body's natural fight against type 2 diabetes and prevents the build-up off plaque in heart arteries. All good reasons to start taking a raspberry ketone supplement as soon as possible.<br /> <br /> This means that the metabolism is increased a notch higher to provide a more efficient way in losing weight. Moreover, while the fat burning process is going on, this food supplement also provides the needed nutrients of our body to provide us more energy. Thus, giving us the end result of looking good and feeling healthy<br /> <br /> Raspberry Ketone is a 100% natural, organic compound derived straight from raspberries. It is safer to use and will have less, if no, side effects on your body. Sure, you could not even take the supplement and just eat raspberries but that will not be as effective. The supplement is strong and concentrated so one capsule would equal dozens of raspberries.<br /> <br /> Often times, the struggle to lose weight can be very frustrating. This is especially true if you are seeing little or no results. Perhaps, you should try a raspberry ketone supplement. It is an all natural way to maximize your body's metabolism. Along with your ketone nutritional supplement, remember to eat healthy foods and stay active.<br /> <br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawresource'><br /> <div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawlinks'>You have to watch the reviews of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPJ0pQaUG2U&feature=youtu.be">Raspberry Ketones Max</a> before to get to know hoe to get a free bottle offer from the official website.</div><br /> </div><br />

Thanks to <a href="http://teamsternation.blogspot.com/2012/10/calif-teamsters-out-in-force-against.html" rel="nofollow">Teamster efforts, over 25,000 Californians registered to vote</a> for the first time to defeat the measure.  Several thousand more mobilized to vote down the ballot question. Teamsters General President Jim Hoffa rallied workers to spread awareness about the devastation that the bill would cause. Hoffa said:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">Proposition 32 is an attack on union workers by the same anti-union, corporate special interests that have waged war against organized labor across the country.  Everything that Prop. 32 represents must be defeated here and now.

Two Republican operatives cooked up Proposition 32, managed to get it on the ballot and then went looking for the money to broadcast their propaganda. There was plenty of it -- many millions, in fact. The only problem was, the greedy billionaires who contributed didn't want their identities known. And California law requires disclosure of political donations.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqPu_m3OVz8-p9ys-rIpFAjk7Xsy7Xy7dBzoTAOgkU5G0_Ssx20bGFMvxH8BhLFISieqgoQL8TFfcwJePgFbn4oXtzJ8UVQ4o7QmhVIaqhFmDYLOQsRwssT2WgiW-YZgywkHdxahdXvjx1/s1600/lobbyist+money.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqPu_m3OVz8-p9ys-rIpFAjk7Xsy7Xy7dBzoTAOgkU5G0_Ssx20bGFMvxH8BhLFISieqgoQL8TFfcwJePgFbn4oXtzJ8UVQ4o7QmhVIaqhFmDYLOQsRwssT2WgiW-YZgywkHdxahdXvjx1/s200/lobbyist+money.jpg" width="200" /></a>So the two operatives laundered the Koch network money through political funds in Iowa and Arizona called the Center to Protect Patient Rights and Americans for Responsible Leadership. Those two groups donated $15 million to two California groups set up to promote Proposition 32. The Sacramento Bee reported on the good news:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq"><div style="color: black; font: 10pt sans-serif; height: 1px; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-transform: none; width: 1px;"><br />Read more here: http://www.sacbee.com/2013/10/25/5850222/dan-morain.html#mi_rss=Opinion#storylink=cpy</div>California authorities levied $500,000 fines on the Center to Protect Patient Rights and Americans for Responsible Leadership, both in Arizona and both part of the Koch brothers’ network.</blockquote>California authorities also want the two California groups to give the state $15 million -- the amount they spent illegally. But as Morain concludes:<br /><blockquote class="tr_bq">The groups probably will avoid paying by ceasing to exist and fading into the woodwork. Such is the way of campaign money in 2013.<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; height: 1px; overflow: hidden; width: 1px;"><br />Read more here: http://www.sacbee.com/2013/10/25/5850222/dan-morain.html#mi_rss=Opinion#storylink=cpy</div><div style="color: black; font: 10pt sans-serif; height: 1px; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-transform: none; width: 1px;"><br />Read more here: http://www.sacbee.com/2013/10/25/5850222</div></blockquote>Despite the millions of dollars rich extremists were willing to throw at Proposition 32, workers were ultimately able to prevail because they stood united against big business.  When you go to the polls on the 5th, remember that you, with your Teamster brothers and sisters, conquer greedy CEOs and billionaires too.

How Loosing Weight Can Be As Easy As 1 2 3

<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Tyler Dropski</div><br /><br /> <div class='uawarticle'>Are you sick and tired with being obese? Eager to find a solution but not sure where to start? Maybe what you're looking for is a spa break.<br /> <br /> We all get swept up in the day-to-day challenges of modern life. We keep an eye on celebrity cooks on TV, but we don't prepare food on our own. We usually choose food which are packed with calories and chemical preservatives we don't require just because arranging our own meals consumes time and can be fairly pricey. Just before we realize what we are doing, we are enjoying a lot of unhealthy foods. Furthermore, we don't have time to exercise because of our hectic schedules.<br /> <br /> In many cases, you could deal with the specific situation by making the very first move. This is the best time to check out a spa. You must go to a spa that could provide you with a individualized service so you will obtain the tips you require to become thinner and healthier. The real difference between another unsuccessful diet and a nutrition and workout plan which is reasonable and that you can stick to rests with those industry experts, leaving you positive that this time you can incorporate practical changes into your way of life.<br /> <br /> Eating very well - utilizing fresh components which are healthy as well as fun to consume as a family - is simpler than you might think about. When you eat healthy foods in a spa, the body will learn to keep away from junk foods and you will soon incorporate more healthy choices in your diet.<br /> <br /> If medical doctors seem aloof or hard to talk with, it may be a warning sign. You would like a doctor that will lead you through the entire treatment and let you understand the entire process. Arranging an appointment must be easy and the consultation must also go smooth. Do not be enticed by physicians who promise way too much; you'll need a physician which could get the work accomplished.<br /> <br /> Along with looking for a medical spa that is run by medical doctors, it is also important to make sure the staff that carry out the treatment have been well-trained. The ideal spa should have staff members who are really experienced making use of the machines required for your procedure. Try looking up some online reviews about the business on Yelp or simply by searching their name on the web with the word 'reviews'.<br /> <br /> Medical spas normally have photographs of their patients which were taken before and after the procedure, and these photos show the staff's abilities and experience. Try asking to check out such a collection in case you have concerns about the people who are doing your procedure. Poor managing of treatments will merely deliver very poor results.<br /> <br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawresource'><br /> <div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawlinks'>When you're ready for <a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tbiCcAf_mI'>lipo in Memphis</a> then you need to check out this <a href='http://smartlipomemphis7.zoints.com/blog'>smart lipo</a> service in Memphis.</div><br /> </div><br />

Medical Spas And Smart Lipo Can Work Well Together

<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>By Spencer Harlod</div><br /><br /> <div class='uawarticle'>Are you sick and tired of carrying excess fat? Eager to take action but not sure where to start? A spa break may just be the solution you are searching for.<br /> <br /> We all get swept up in the day-to-day demands of modern life. Too often preparing food is one thing we watch superstar cooks doing on the TV set, without doing it ourselves. Worried that creating meals on your own is very costly or very time-consuming we end up eating for comfort, loading up on excess calories and preservatives our bodies don't need. Before we realize what we're doing, we are living off a lot of junk food. Additionally, we don't have enough time to exercise because of our hectic schedules.<br /> <br /> Most of the time, you could cope with the situation by making the very first move. This is where a spa will come in. Escaping to a spa which offers you a bespoke weight loss service provides you with the expert advice you need; it ensures that you start your slimmer, healthier you with the right hints and tips. You don't want one more failed diet regime. These experts will guarantee that you will be able to do it properly now.<br /> <br /> It may seem like consuming nutritious food is hard, but it really isn't. When you eat nutritious foods in a spa, your body will learn to stay away from junk foods and you will soon incorporate healthier choices in what you eat.<br /> <br /> A spa that gives its service boot-camp type can be quite daunting, yet they are very famous these days. The all-in-one service leaves customers able to take pleasure in their time at the spa, safe in the knowledge that they are at the disposal of experts. Connecting with others is undoubtedly a very good reason to visit a spa. You could participate in group sessions, and understand more about others' backgrounds and how they deal with weight reduction. A spa vacation is the ideal moment for people who have the identical ideas and objectives to bond. These new buddies will continue to aid you in person and on the internet when you go back to daily life, determined to put what you've learned into practice.<br /> <br /> The majority of spas have websites, so make sure to check them out to discover every one of them much better. It is also smart to ask around and pay attention to their experiences with their spa holidays. Think about regardless of whether you're looking for a spa which may focus on specific areas just like yoga exercises and pilates, health and fitness, or medicine and pick the finest one suited for your requirements.<br /> <br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawresource'><br /> <div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br /> About the Author:<br /> </div><br /> <div class='uawlinks'>The best <a href='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tbiCcAf_mI'>smart lipo Memphis</a> should take place in the best <a href='http://youtube.com/watch?v=kM8PqndDWr4'>Memphis medical spa</a> to ensure the best results.</div><br /> </div><br />

Here are some of my photos of the PATH - West Concourse (2013) in New York City by <a href="http://www.calatrava.com/">Santiago Calatrava</a>.
