Spartans' inconsistency shines through vs. Indiana
Spartans' inconsistency shines through vs. Indiana
"Despite a roster that includes three starting freshmen (and nine total on the 14-player roster), Indiana was a constant threat to the far more experienced Spartans throughout the opening 20 minutes.
Despite two errant field-goal attempts and six turnovers on their first eight possessions, the fuzzy-cheek Hoosiers still were an absolute thorn in Michigan State's side during the first half.
And in spite of an Indiana squad that is the least experienced in Big Ten history, returning just 19 total points and only 185 playing minutes from last season -- and ranks either 10th or 11th in pretty much every Big Ten team statistical category -- the Spartans' largest first-half lead of nine points, at 33-24, didn't even occur until Cedar Springs' Austin Thornton hit a pair of free throws with 78 seconds on the clock.

Take away half of the Hoosiers' 12 first-half turnovers and improve their 30-percent shooting for the period just a tad, and IU likely would have led Michigan State at the break.
It wasn't until Kalin Lucas' driving layup with 13:47 remaining that the Spartans were finally able to put up a double-digit advantage (41-30) against the undermanned Hoosiers. That also was part of a 13-1 MSU run that finally gave this game the appearance of a first-place conference team schooling the league's cellar-dweller.
But Michigan State was never able to put away Indiana prior to redshirt senior center Goran Suton's complete inside domination of the youthful Hoosier beginning halfway through the second half. The Spartans, despite their many advantages over a Hoosier squad that pretty much lost everything from last season with regard to coaches and players, never really delivered a legitimate knockout punch inside Breslin Center until Suton took over."
Despite author Howie's screed, this post looks like a 3rd grader's attempt to spite our Spartans, though in spite of Howie's college degree, he seems to be a 4th grader trying to impress his teacher, despite the odds of any educator giving this idiocy a D or worse, in spite of red-shirt-post-grad-soon-to-be-unemployed Howie's spiteful post.

Michigan Judge Finds Escaped Prisoner in His Trunk
Michigan Judge Finds Escaped Prisoner in His Trunk
"A Michigan judge says he's learned a lesson about locking his car after a 16-year-old prisoner who escaped from a courthouse cell was found hiding in the vehicle's trunk.
The Macomb Daily reports the teen had vanished Friday after appearing in juvenile court in Mount Clemens on a probation violation.
Sheriff's deputies searched for about an hour until a security officer became suspicious when he saw a picture that had fallen to the ground outside judge's car.
A deputy checked the car and found the boy in the trunk.
Macomb County Circuit Judge Peter Maceroni says the teen likely used a button inside the unlocked car to open the trunk.
The judge says that from now on he will lock the car when he's at the courthouse.
Seriously, let's look at this dufus judge!

Black History month!
How Much Michigan Black History Do you know?
by Lisa Diggs
February is Black History Month, so we’re taking a look at a few of the many significant people and events that helped shape Michigan and the nation.
African Americans have been living in Michigan for nearly 250 years, arriving originally as slaves, until the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 banned human slavery, long before Michigan became a state.
In 1836, thirteen escaped or freed slaves petitioned the Michigan legislature for permission to start a church. Their efforts lead to the formation of the Second Baptist Church in Detroit. They purchased a permanent site in 1857, where the congregation still celebrates today.
Michigan residents played a pivotal role in the formation and execution of the Underground Railroad between 1830 and 1860. Station operators provided food, clothing, directions, and shelter to help slaves escape to freedom in Canada.
Nationally, the 1850 Fugitive Slave Law forced the return of African Americans who had escaped the horrors of slavery. To counter that, the Michigan legislature prohibited the use of county jails for the detention of escaped slaves and directed county prosecuting attorneys to defend the recaptured slaves.
Fannie M. Richards moved to Detroit with her family in the 1850’s and fought for equal rights. She opened a private school for African American children in 1863, and joined others in 1869 in filing suit with the Michigan Supreme Court, and arguing that segregated public schools were unconstitutional. The court agreed and in 1871 she became the first African American teacher in the newly integrated Detroit Public Schools.
Barber, John Wilson, chosen as Wayne County coroner, became the state’s first African American elected to public office in 1876.
At a time when neither women, nor people of color, were encouraged to express their views, Sojourner Truth emerged. Born a slave in New York in 1797, she was freed in 1828, and moved to Battle Creek in 1856. She traveled throughout the nation preaching about emancipation and the rights of African Americans and women.
In 1864, Detroiter Henry Barns commanded Michigan’s first and only African American military regiment. 895 brave men served in what was eventually designated the 102nd U.S. Colored Infantry.
Elijah McCoy took a job with the Michigan Central Railroad in 1870, where he invented an automatic lubricator cup that eliminated the previous need for trains to stop along the way to oil locomotive bearings. His patented invention was often imitated, but not duplicated, leading to the term “the real McCoy”. [Andy Comment: McCoy had his shop in Ypsilanti, my home town. I never learned of him until I went to Washington, D.C.]
After being kicked out of a restaurant for refusing to sit in the “colored” section, Detroit native, William Ferguson, filed a discrimination suit. He lost originally, but won on an appeal to the Michigan Supreme Court. He went on to become the first African American elected to serve in the Michigan House of Representatives in 1892.
In 1924, a then 10-year old Joe Louis moved to Detroit with his family. By age 19 he was already an amateur boxing champion. He won the heavyweight title of the world in 1937, and then became an icon for democracy and equality in 1938, when he defeated Hitler’s symbol of “Aryan Superiority”, Max Schmelling, in a first-round knockout in their famous rematch.
Songwriter, Barry Gordy opened his own recording company in 1953. The following year, he created Motown Records, and changed music history. The company launched the careers of Michigan natives, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, and Diana Ross.
In the nation’s largest civil rights gathering up to that time, an estimated 125,000 people marched down Woodward Avenue in 1963. The march ended at Cobo Hall, where the Reverend Martin Luther King delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech for the first time.
Forty-five years later, the United States has elected its first African American president. He stands on the shoulders of these and many other courageous men and women, who have fought for daily evidence of all of our inalienable rights.
To learn more, plan a visit to the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit.
WHO GETS WHAT: Billions to colleges and students
WHO GETS WHAT: Billions to colleges and students
"The stimulus plan emerging in Washington could offer an unprecedented, multibillion-dollar boost in financial help for college students trying to pursue a degree while they ride out the recession.
It could also hand out billions to the states to kick-start idled campus construction projects and help prevent tuition increases at a time when families can least afford them."
Totally bogus lie!
The crooks who will get our children's money are the college teachers and their corrupt comrades in the government-industrial complex that sucks taxpayer's money like a limousine liberal in a "private" jet.

"The stakes in the competing narratives are high.
The diagnosis determines the prescription.
If the Times diagnosis prevails, the prescription is more regulation of the financial system;
if instead government policy is to blame, the prescription is to terminate those government policies that distort mortgage lending.
There really isn’t any question of approach is factually correct: right on the front page of the Times edition of December 21 is a chart that shows the growth of home ownership in the United States since 1990.
In 1993 it was 63 percent; by the end of the Clinton administration it was 68 percent.
The growth in the Bush administration was about 1 percent.
The Times itself reported in 1999 that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were under pressure from the Clinton administration to increase lending to minorities and low-income home buyers--a policy that necessarily entailed higher risks.
Can there really be a question, other than in the fevered imagination of the Times, where the push to reduce lending standards and boost home ownership came from?"

Obama executive order favors union labor
Obama executive order favors union labor: "President Barack Obama on Friday issued an executive order backing the use of union labor for large-scale federal construction projects.
The order encourages federal agencies to have construction contractors and subcontractors enter project labor agreements. Those agreements require contractors to negotiate with union officials, recognize union wages and benefits and generally abide by collective-bargaining agreements.
Obama's order restores a Clinton administration order that was revoked by President George W. Bush"

Reporter restrained after Panetta hearing
Following Leon Panetta’s confirmation hearing Thursday, several reporters approached the CIA director-designate in the hallway outside room G-50 in the Dirksen Building.
There, CongressDaily reporter Chris Strohm — upon asking a question — was physically restrained by a man who accompanied Panetta at hearings both days.
Strohm, when reached by phone Friday, said he was unsure of the man’s role.
“I felt this hand grab my right arm and push me aside,” Strohm said.
By his account, Strohm told the man, “Please don’t touch me” more than once. Eventually, the man let him go.
Tim Starks, a reporter for Congressional Quarterly, said he witnessed Strohm approach Panetta and ask a question, just before the man began “grabbing him by the arm and moving him away.”
“I said to the guy, ‘That’s not the way you do it,’” recalled Starks.
Starks said that he’s covered the CIA for years and had never seen a reporter strong-armed that way before, adding that the agency is typically respectful of journalists.
Reflecting on the incident, Strohm played it down somewhat, saying that he’s “had worse happen” while reporting.
A staff assistant at The Panetta Institute said they are not addressing any media inquiries before Panetta’s confirmation. The White House declined to comment.
After today’s hearing, there was no similar incident: Panetta briefly answered questions from reporters."

"Food and Drug Administration officials earlier had said Peanut Corp. of America waited for a second test to clear peanut butter and peanuts that initially were positive for salmonella. But the agency amended its report Friday, noting that the Blakely, Ga., plant actually shipped some products before receiving the second test and sold others after confirming salmonella.
Federal law forbids producing or shipping foods under conditions that could make it harmful to consumers' health."
Yes this company is crooked.
But we don't pay for this company's products unless we chose to.
But we are forced to pay for the FDA and they are the fools who promised to protects us from these crooks.
Why is there no outrage at our government who steals our money and allows crooks to poison us?

Federal civil rights lawsuit against Muskegon County to continue
Federal civil rights lawsuit against Muskegon County to continue
"The Department of Justice alleges the county violated federal civil rights law by allowing ongoing sexual harassment of a female employee by a male co-worker who was eventually fired, prosecuted and jailed. The government alleges the harassment occurred in the period 1999-2006.
Also Wednesday, Scoville granted a motion by the victim to intervene in the case. Eva Amaya, a former 60th District Court employee, filed her own federal lawsuit against the county in October, alleging the county retaliated against her for complaining in 2006 to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Amaya was terminated from her job last year.
The male employee, Eugene Beene, eventually was fired in 2006 after other women complained about him. Beene later pleaded guilty to attempted fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, based on his behavior at work."
Why the heck is our county fighting this outrage?
They already fired the thug for harassment!

The Jews are NOT promoting brain washing children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims!
The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics, or blow themselves up in German restaurants.
There is NOT one single Jew who has destroyed a church.
There is NOT a single Jew who protests by killing people.
The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.
Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.
Muslims must ask "what can they do for humankind" before they demand that humankind respects them!!

The Jews are NOT promoting brain washing children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims!
The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics, or blow themselves up in German restaurants.
There is NOT one single Jew who has destroyed a church.
There is NOT a single Jew who protests by killing people.
The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.
Perhaps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.
Muslims must ask "what can they do for humankind" before they demand that humankind respects them!!

Congress risks criticism over luxury retreat trips
Congress risks criticism over luxury retreat trips
"Members of Congress were quick to shame corporate executives for over-the-top extravagance during the economic crisis, flying private jets and taking luxury junkets. But some lawmakers are strolling fancy resorts spending tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars and mingling with lobbyists.
'We're very mindful' of perceptions, House Democratic Caucus Chairman John Larson told reporters Thursday camped outside of the sprawling Kingsmill Resort & Spa in Williamsburg, Va., where House Democrats spent about $100,000 on their three-day annual retreat"

Could the Stimulus Start a Trade War?
The Volokh Conspiracy
"Could the Stimulus Start a Trade War?
Some commentators and trade experts have expressed concern that the 'Buy American' provisions in the stimulus are not only wasteful, but potentially harmful in that they could be a prelude to greater protectionism, both here and abroad."

United States Senate elections, 2010
United States Senate elections, 2010
"Elections to the United States Senate will be held on November 2, 2010, with at least 36 of the 100 seats in the Senate being contested."
Good resource for how these crooks will vote in 2010.
And it doesn't look good for the GOPers.
They defend 14 seats and have 4 retiring.
That's 18 out of 36 seats up for election.
