Every day now, as was true in the past, less qualified white men are hired over more qualified white men, less qualified white women chosen over more qualified white women or men, etc. Look at today’s workforce. What ethnic group dominates the workforce? In every industry, incompetent white men and women hold high level jobs. Minority men and women still hold a minority of those high level jobs. Your comments ring hollow in light of the current reality. Calling folks names reveals what a small mind you have. the fact that your letter was even chosen to be published indicates the biased agenda the editor implicitly is pushing — make wild, hackneyed, unsupported charges which feed the bigots who hate the fact of a highly educated, articulate black man as the President of the USA and you’re very likely going to get it published!

Obama is only half black, guess what his other half is?

Articulate? only with a teleprompter!

Educated? We don’t know, we haven’t seen his college transcripts.

Now for some of my favorite Obamaism gaffes….H/T Human Events!

“I’ve now been in 57 states—I think one left to go.”

”In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died—an entire town destroyed.” He was only off by 9,988 as the twister killed 12 people.

“No, no. I have been practicing. … I bowled a 129. It’s like—it was like Special Olympics, or something.”

During the health care debate, President Obama explained all the benefits of ObamaCare, saying, “The reforms we seek would bring greater competition, choice, savings and inefficiencies to our health care system.”

President Obama signed the guest book and dated it 24 may 2008. Oops. it was 2011.

Letter being published showing bias by the CA? not hardly, look at their consistent track record of who they endorse. if I recall, they are over 90% Democrat during election season.

LSU Tigers – Coaches Leading LSU to the National Championships

by on September 25, 2011

Life is about competition. We work our way to meet our goals. It is not an easy ride but it is something that we must do in order to progress. Everyday we go to school to be competitive in our future jobs. In our everyday jobs, we work our way to get a promotion and a salary raise. However, we do not do it alone. there will always be people who will take part in keeping us on track with our everyday challenges just to reach the end goal. sometimes, those people are whom we call our guardians, our parents, our counselors or even our life coach.

In sports, whether team or individual, there will always be one person or more to watch out for the team. of course, they do not act as a police patrol to keep reprimanding the team what not to do. However, they are there to discipline, train and keep the team on track with their goal to win the championship match in every league they join. one of the sports that have many coaches is football. a team full of big and tough men needs more than one person to handle them. However, there will be only one coach that manages the team overall and they are the head coaches.

Let us now look at the coaches of the LSU Tigers football team, who helped them win national championships.

1. Paul Dietzel- He led the team to win National Championships way back 1958. Coaching for this time was one of the best years he had. American Football Coaches Association and Football Writers Association of America named him National Coach of the Year at the time they won the National Championships. He loved the team so much and led them to become the number one in the country. He quoted, I never considered going anywhere else because I thought LSU was the best coaching job in America

2. Nick Saban- He was the head coach of the team from 2000-2004. He made history when he led the team to win their second National Championships in 2003.

3. Les Miles- He is the current head coach of the team. He has been helping the team to perform at their best whether it is nationals or just SEC championships. one of his greatest achievements was to lead the team to win the BCS National Title Game last year. It is one of the most important events in the history of LSU Tigers as he made this team the only team to win two BCS national championship titles.

In the field of sports, coaches play a vital role in winning. They can see through the strengths and weaknesses of every player and use that to create a successful play. You can love the most valuable player in the team but in the hearts of the players, they know they were not alone in winning. great football coaches serve different teams across America and it happened that LSU was blessed enough to make great college football history with their coaches.

Meditech abandons plans for Freetown expansion

FREETOWN — Meditech is abandoning plans to build an office building in Freetown over a disagreement with a state commission on how to preserve archaeological discoveries.

Instead, the Westwood medical software developer announced to employees Thursday that it will look for another site. Company officials did not say whether they plan to keep the project and the more than 800 jobs associated with it in the SouthCoast area.

The Massachusetts Historical Commission must approve the company’s plans for handling any important archaeological material that is uncovered at the site, such as Native American artifacts.

Freetown Selectman Jean C. Fox, who was surprised by the company’s decision, said she is not giving up on the project.

“There has to be a middle ground that we can find,” Fox said. “I’m not willing to put the nail in the coffin.”

Meditech, which is short for Medical Information Technology Inc., had proposed a 186,000-square-foot facility off South Main Street in Freetown. the proposal was expected to result in more than 800 jobs over seven years.

Meditech said in the announcement that the state commission insisted the company “strip all the earth from a full 21 acres to a depth of 2 feet and have that material sieved and inspected by archaeologists.”

The company said these requirements would be expensive, open-ended and delay the project by another year or more.

“As the MHC seems unwilling to change their mind on this, we feel we have no recourse but to cancel the project and look elsewhere,” the company said.

A spokesman for the commission could not be reached for comment late Thursday when the news broke.

An archaeological firm hired by Meditech, the Public Archaeology Laboratory Inc., identified three areas on the property that might contain artifacts. the firm recommended the software developer dig, inspect, log and store for further archaeological use any significant material that is uncovered, according to Meditech.

“PAL assured us this was a reasonable approach, similar to plans that had been accepted in the past,” the company said in its announcement.

The company asserts that the state commission at first seemed mostly in agreement with this plan but then pushed for further testing and more extensive excavation.

Paul Berthiaume, a corporate spokesman for Meditech, declined to comment on whether the company was looking for a different location in Freetown or elsewhere in Southeastern Massachusetts.

Meditech’s proposal had called for a five-story facility to be built on 21 acres of an approximately 135-acre property, which the company would own. the company already operates a 128,000-square-foot facility in Fall River.

State and local officials have hailed the company’s plans to expand in the region and provide job opportunities. Just last week, the proposal cleared a major hurdle when the state’s energy and environmental affairs secretary, Richard K. Sullivan Jr., certified that the proposal complies with the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act.

However, Sullivan said Native American material had been recovered from the site and Meditech must continue to consult with the commission on historical matters.

Fox said she is willing to see whether the town can help Meditech proceed with its plans. “They are an incredibly valuable business to our region because they represent really good, strong jobs,” she said.
