Poll: Roberts' Abortion Stance of Interest By WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer ===<begin quote>=== Just over half of all Americans — and a solid majority of women — want to know John Roberts' position on abortion before the Senate votes on whether to elevate him to the Supreme Court. <extraneous deleted> Abortion is sure to come up at his Senate confirmation hearings, and the survey found 52 percent believe he should give his position on the matter before lawmakers vote on him, while 42 percent said he should not. Women were more inclined to want to know his position — 60 percent — while only 43 percent of men felt similarly. <extraneous deleted> Dolores Runyea, a semiretired resident of "It would be very important to me for him to state his position on abortion," Runyea said. "As far as I'm concerned, that's killing a baby. People who are going to be in those positions should be very forthright." <extraneous deleted> ===<end quote>=== As reportedly a “Catholic” it will be “interesting” how he steers this line. All too often everyone is ready to abandon principle. As the readership here knows, I have a jaundiced view of “politicians”. Especially “Catholic” ones, who forget their beliefs, in order to be popular, elected, or be on the winning side. I see the need for a secular state to preserve the peace.
It should be small and agnostic. I’m an “originalist”
when it comes to the Constitution. So, politicians of any religion, who will
forget their principles, are a threat to the security of the No I am not setting my self up as the arbiter of all things Catholic. I have enough of my own flaws to worry about thank you. But, I am observing that when the label means nothing, then why bother to have it. I am sure that you my fellow alums have a much better grasp on these heady issues. But as an injineer, who is much further down the evolutionary scale, I apply the rule of “ducks”. If it says it’s a duck, then it better quack like one! Or, let’s have it for dinner. I’m sure that everyone will pay careful attention to this news, which will impact our political and moral environment for the next 40 years. As members of the body politic, we have a moral duty to stand for good and oppose evil. Here we do that by making our beliefs and opinions known. Thru our representatives, we have to speak up. I’m waiting for the facts. I don’t approve him merely because he wears a label that say “Catholic”. I can put a label that says “thin”, but that doesn’t make it so. And, I don’t disapprove him because he comes from inside the Beltway. Someone smart said “What is past is prologue”. But, I will form and opinion. And, make my representatives aware of it. I would hope that each of my fellow alums does the same. |
Reflect well on our alma mater, this week, every week, in any and
every way possible, large or small. God bless.

"Ed put his heart and soul into it as a San Franciscan who wanted to see something good happen in the city,'' Baer said. "He was a wonderful guy to work with.''

http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3193535 Cucurullo battles through for Rox Former heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali once said, "The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road." Ali believed that much of the game was mental and your outcome on the stage depended much on your physical and mental preparation prior to the actual contest. In no sport does that concept hold more true than in baseball http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3193535# The rigors of the sport can seem endless as it is a hard fought struggle to sign with an organization or club, let alone reach the top of the podium. As a result, athletes find themselves struggling to keep motivated and press on to follow their dreams, which at times can seem very out of reach. Matt Cucurullo, the free-swinging outfielder of the Brockton Rox, is one of the many independent baseball players who can identify with that scenario. Cucurullo, 22, has encountered injuries, slumps and setbacks while overall remaining productive and determined and is patiently waiting for his chance in affiliated ball. http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3193535# While he says that playing baseball is the greatest job in the world, he has learned that all the situations off the field require resilience just to make the on the field opportunity possible. "Seriously, you can't get discouraged cause this game is full of disappointment," Cucurullo said, "getting released, getting injured, missing a couple games due to injury and another guy steps in, does well and now you find yourself on the bench. Just really perseverance and trust yourself and give it everything you've got." After a sub par season last year with the Elmira Pioneers where he hit .258 in limited action, he has rebounded with the Rox and is having a breakout season. In 28 games so far this year, Cucurullo is batting .325 and has knocked in 13 RBI. He also presents a stolen base threat to his opponents as he has been successful in all six steal attempts this season. Cucurullo has proven that he can produce but he also brings many intangible qualities to the game. His speed, throwing arm and overall desire amplify his skills and knowledge of baseball. Cucurullo thinks it's those immeasurable qualities that will help him stand out to scouts. "I think it's going to be my intensity and my will to do whatever it takes to succeed," Cucurullo said. "If you watch me play, I think I play the game hard and I listen and I want to get better." Cucurullo likens his approach to
baseball to that of "The way he's built, the way he plays the game," Cucurullo said, "not to say I'm as good as Corey Patterson, ... but straight up tools and how the game is played, he's very aggressive, he likes to swing, I don't walk very often. He bats lefty, throws righty. I bat lefty, throw righty." Cucurullo has made great strides
just to get where he is now. A graduate of "I was actually the worst hitter in the league, I had the lowest batting average in the league my freshman season and it was a tough year," Cucurullo said. "I was embarrassed. My confidence was at an all time low. The ball looked like a golf http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3193535# ball." He added: "My coach http://www.oursportscentral.com/services/releases/?id=3193535# had a lot of confidence in me and kept me in the lineup and even through the struggles he let me get all my errors and mistakes out of the way and the next three years I grew up a little bit physically and also knowing the game right and things started happening for me." Cucurullo came back in his sophomore campaign to hit .370 with 36 RBI and stole 25 bases. He followed up in his junior year with equally impressive numbers, batting .365 with 36 RBI and 15 stolen bases. His senior year, Cucurullo was faced with a potentially devastating blow- he tore his left hamstring in the second game of the season. Ultimately, he decided to play through the injury as a designated hitter. Much of his speed was replaced with power. He ended his final collegiate season with a career high nine homeruns and 52 RBI while batting .350 and still maneuvering 15 stolen bases. Despite his success and ability to come back from injury, Cucurullo was overlooked by affiliated organizations and he now plans to use the opportunity the Rox gave him to prove himself as a ballplayer. "The draft came, I went undrafted," Cucurullo said. "I was upset but luckily some professional teams, independent organizations called and I went that route." He added: "Hopefully, I stay healthy here, put up numbers and just play the way that I know I can play and hopefully things will fall into place." ### [MCalumDB: 2004 ] [JR: OK let’s get out to a Rox game and cheer for “our” guy!

coach Bobby Gonzalez announced today that Christian “We are very excited to add Christian as the last piece of our recruiting class,” commented Gonzalez. “Christian is a unique player for us, as he is a big, very versatile guard that can play two or three different positions, and on top of that, he can really score the basketball. He will add depth to our backcourt, and will be a great addition to our program.” Manhattan posted a 15-14 record in the 2004-05 season, 9-9 in MAAC play, and advanced to the second round of the MAAC Tournament, but return 10 letter winners, four starters, and nearly 75% of the team's scoring, led by 2005 MAAC Rookie of the Year CJ Anderson ### |

"Nothing easy," she said as she trotted off the floor. The Heritage forward came into the all-star week with a mindset of having fun, but when East coach Chris Dodson told his team that they had not won the game in four years, Alston thought it was time for a change. When the game was over she got just that. Alston scored 14 points and grabbed nine rebounds to help the East beat the West 77-66 at Hampton Coliseum on Tuesday night. "We had to win the game," Alston said. "It wasn't real serious, but we couldn't let it be five years in a row." Dodson added: "I saw that they needed a little motivation because they were just having fun, but anytime you get a group of all stars together you know they're competitors." Alston, who has signed a basketball scholarship with The players spent countless hours talking in each other's rooms, had cookouts and went on a boat ride to view the Naval base in the days leading up to the game. "That was OK," Alston said of the boat ride. "We got to go with the boys, so that made it fun. It's a good experience because you get to play with girls that you've never played with before. That gets you ready for college, because when you get there you haven't played with those girls either." "I love playing with Kymesha,
she's so hype on the court," said Spriggs, who
has signed a basketball scholarship with Alston also tried to fine tune things that her coaches at "I tried, but I still did it," Alston said. "We were just trying to have fun out there." And breaking a four-year losing streak is always a good time.

Sports Chris Cody, a former three-time all-area selection from Brewster High, pitched seven innings of two-hit ball for the Chatham Athletics Wednesday night in the famed Cape Cod League. CHATHAM, Of course, the more he told himself to forget it, the more thought about it. "It's kind of hard not to," said Cody, the
junior left-hander from Fortunately for Cody, he already had a backup plan in place. Though one dream has been temporarily been put on hold, another one is being realized. Instead of leaving school and pitching minor league baseball this summer, Cody is back for his second stint with the Chatham Athletics, one of the marquee franchises in the storied Cape Cod Baseball League. Cody had started out here a year ago, following hiss ophomore season at He went on to help Manhattan post a 27-21 record last spring, leading the Jaspers in wins (seven), innings pitched (96ª), complete games (five), strikeouts (89) and earned run average (2.70).His performance made his absence in the MLB draft even more baffling. He had heard he could go as high as the 10th round. But just in case, veteran Chatham manager John Schiffner had talked to Manhattan coach Steve Trimper about sending Cody back to the A's for the summer of 2005 should the draft not pan out. Under the circumstances, both Cody and Schiffner gained a favorably situation. "It's great playing baseball here, whether you haven't been drafted or are working your way toward your first draft," Cody said on Wednesday night, following the A's 4-2, 12-inning loss to Harwich at Veterans Field. "There are a lot worse places to play baseball than Cody worked the first seven innings of Wednesday's game for
For the "We're glad Chris is here, though obviously we would have
wanted him to be somewhere else (in minor league baseball) had the opportunity
arisen," said Schiffner, the long-time
Plainfield High coach who ranks third all-time in "He seems to pitch with a little more confidence than he did a year ago, something I'm sure that comes from having had another good college season and from having been here before and knowing what it takes. He's always around the plate and usually doesn't get himself into much trouble. He's thrown very well for us." Schiffner, who has managed
scores of high-level draft picks over the years at "It was a weird draft," said Schiffner. "Some kids you were surprised by at how high they went, and others, like Chris, who could have gone, weren't drafted at all. It was crazy and there was a lot of misinformation out there, some of it coming from the teams themselves. "Some of these (Major League) organizations need to revamp the way they do business, especially with some of their northeast scouts," Schiffner added. "Several times recently I've heard from former players who had been told specifically by head area scouts – not bird dogs –that they were going by such and such round and then weren't drafted. And these were guys who had already agreed to sign if they were taken. So somebody or some persons are getting out some bad information to many of these kids and their families." With his unfortunate draft experience now well behind him, Cody is looking forward to the remainder of his summer here and helping the Manhattan program continue to grow under Trimper, another Brewster resident. He will be eligible for the draft again following his senior season in 2006. "Hopefully I can pitch well up here against other guys who are going to be doing this for a living some day," Cody said. "Hopefully I can impress somebody that I hadn't impressed before. I'll just see how it goes and then go back to school and try to have one more good season." |

From: Reinke(nsteinian monster)
[From a dedicated email address used for all Jasper activities] Dear Guinea Pigs, err ... I mean Trusted Friends of Jasper Jottings, ;-) I'm preparing to rehost www.jasperjottings.com to www.reinke.cc. No, I am not moving to the ".cc" -- Cocos (Keeling) Islands -- off the coast of I believe all the files are in place. Please click this link: http://www.reinke.cc/JasperJottings/jasperjottings20050710.htm and let me know if it doesn't work. When I move the domain, www.jasperjottings.com will redirect away from www.ferdinand_reinke.tripod.com and to www.reinke.cc/jasperjottings! And, I'll get four times the space at half the cost. I'll be collapsing all my other domains onto this one account. That picks up all those savings. You know 11$/mo here, 6$/mo there, 22$/mo at the next place. It puts all my eggs in one basket to fail at once. ;-) I'll actually reduce my run rate by about 36$ / month. So I'll give me more in my budget for toys. Thanks, |

http://www.lewrockwell.com/north/north396.html Why Are So Many People Pessimistic? by Gary North Gary North is the author of Mises on Money. Visit http://www.freebooks.com. He is also the author of a free multi-volume series, An Economic Commentary on the Bible. ===<begin quote>=== <extraneous deleted> But for the person who is not flexible, who is dependent
on Social Security or a pension from a company as shaky as General Motors,
the future is far more problematical. Economic growth will help. A rising
tide raises all ships. But it raises the ships that are positioned to take
advantage of the tide first. There is no question that The greatest threat to our economic health as a nation is a trade war. If the politicians start passing tariffs and quotas in response to voters’ demands, the world economy could tank for many years. If the voters become persuaded that low tariffs are responsible for the effects of Asian central bankers’ unwillingness to buy more Federal debt or American corporate debt, then the economic gains we have seen for the last generation could end. They could even be reversed. Economic freedom did not get us into this high-risk mess. Asian central bank policies did. Too many of these central bankers studied in the best American universities. They have a naïve Keynesian faith in the productivity of central bank inflation. This faith is going to be tested soon enough by the Austrian theory of the trade cycle. Let us pray that it is not then tested by Jude Wanniski’s theory of worldwide depression through tariff hikes. ===<end quote>=== In College, I read a book on the tulip craze. I don’t
remember why? Probably some darn, theology course. They were always trying to
open up our minds. Probably to make room to stick some more … in! Since the
tulip book, I have always been watching for the bust at the end of the boom
AND conversely the boom at the end of the bust. When everyone says X,
consider doing Y. In my time, I have made some I’ve read about the Condorcet Jury Theorem. If you have a group of people, and if each person is more than 50% likely to be right, the likelihood that the average answer will be right approaches 100% as the size of the group increases. If group members are less than 50% likely to be right, the likelihood that the average will be right approaches ZERO as the size of the group increases. So, when the herd is wrong, don’t follow it over the cliff. When it’s right be at the front, but stop just before the edge. So when them foreigners stop sending us Toyotas for the little green pieces of papers, watch out for the congresscritters who will “save us”! And, don’t say you weren’t warned. |
And that’s the last word.
