How Do We Protect our Kids from Both Genders

             How does anyone justify going after a kid. On the AOl screen one of the topics was, a twenty-four female flirted with a fifteen year-old boy at a gym. The boys mother did notice, but left the area. That gave Ms. Brashear time to take the boy to the tanning bed, undress herself and kiss the boy. She is now charged with a lewed act on a minor under sixteen.
       The mother came back just in time-or maybe not. I wonder why, once the mother saw this woman flirting with her son, why she didn't call a manager, or leave with her son, ask to write a complaint, but go to another part of the gym?
        We know more and more women today are just as likely to be predators as so called men are. I know, there's still a different spin on this. Boys are supposed to be flattered that an older woman flirts or goes even further. Not all boys.
       Brashears photo shows her red faced and teary-eyed. Her dumb comment was that she felt it was okay to just kiss him and she knew he was fifteen. What planet is she from? He wasn't her nephew, little brother or cousin? Is she really serious?
She needs a mental health eval for sure. Still, if he was my son...oh, and teh mother; would she take a different view if this was her daughter and it was a man working at the gym? We know the answer, don't we?

Sanduskly Guilty!!! YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

       It was an expected verdict, yet we have seen people get off and know many innocent are in jail, so we wait and finally it came. As Sandusky's attorney thought he never had enough time to truly prepare, how much time did those kids get and how much time do they still serve in trying to heal?
     That attorney general Kelly someone...she just had too much video time. Most of what she said people know, but people don't do and I'm not going over it all again. The best person of all in the prosecution was a man of fewer but more powerful words, words that painted a picture, a Mr. McGettin, if I have his name right, if not it is similar. The best people of all are the kids who are now young men.
     The media, local here in Pa. kept calling Sandusky by Mr. Specifically Kim Lemon-is she nuts? He isn't deserving of a MR. title. What he is deserving of is everything he receives while in jail. His wife is another case. Personally I believe she knew, maybe not about every child, but she knew. Maybe her daughters didn't know as he preferred boys, and look at the shame they will now carry. The man they called father is a child molester, a pervert, a sexual deviant, a predator who will be on Megan's law, if he lives that long. But she knew-his wife knew. I believe that to be true. How many men bring small children to a basement and a wife never goes to say hi, bring food, ask them if they want to call home or even come upstairs and eat, play with their own young children.
    Why would a women not be suspicious of her husband who brings home little boys? She knew. My hope is the children who were/are the victims sue the Sandusky family as in him and her.
   By the way, if his daughters believe his innocence, have them now put their little boys in the hands of  a male coach who also wants to bring them home and into his basement-alone. Maybe the way they lived from his money made it easier to turn their backs on other children. Was it worth it? Ask the victims. Sleep well Sandusky-behind bars.

Great Pain Gel=no pills

  So how ya doing? Pain free of lots of pain? Does it keep you from sleeping? Well I was just give something called Voltaren Gel, and finally last night I slept about 50% better. This package gives you a small piece of plastic to measure how much to rub on the painful area. I just used a little squirt here, a little squirt there, because at first I could find this measurement thing. It was attached to the box cover. Yup, slow, I was cursing saying what the heck are they talking about, there isn't any measuring stick here, but I hate to give up and finally found it.
   I was also given a back up drug-it sucks-Meloxicam. After taking it and the effects, I remember, yeah, nice huh, remembering during the effects that I had it once before. Dumped it out. I don't like pills anyway. It was supposed to be taken during the day and use the cream at night while in a rested state. One time was enough for me.
    So here I am again, knees, hands/wrists and shoulders, slimy. Not really it dries nicely, but good thing I'm single. Remember the ads with women going to bed with white cream all over their faces. Ahh , what a picture, yet to their credit and unlike me, they have beautiful skin. I am a sun damaged package, but repairs in the works.  Not complaining here because I have had a very good life with great kids and a few good friends. What more could a person ask for? Still twenty more years to go.

support local businesses, Crafters, farmers, seamstress etc.

   Hey People, Okay, I can write today but the previous post was copied and pasted from an article not written by me. Anyway please check out your local newspapers and look for who you need to perform repairs, instaed of that loacl building supply store. Go to churches and see who can use help if you have it to offer or receive if they have someone to help you. KEEP it in your community!
   Check out local seamstresses to see if you can get baby clothes and reuseable diapers made-yes reuseable which look like pants, so cute.
    Small town garages instead of corportate garages. They are there, ask around. Look on line for those things you need and barter, check out AMerican made items, instaed of buying all those brand names which are not made in the USA!  GO ALL AMERICAN-includng restaurants-don't eat at those chains! and remember BRUCE... I was born in the USA!!!  so shop USA

Why To Ban NIke & American Girl Dolls

Nike has been criticized for contracting with factories in countries such as China, Vietnam, Indonesia and Mexico. Vietnam Labour Watch, an activist group, has documented that factories contracted by Nike have violated minimum wage and overtime laws in Vietnam as late as 1996, although Nike claims that this practice has been halted.[21] The company has been subject to much critical coverage of the often poor working conditions and exploitation of cheap overseas labor employed in the free trade zones where their goods are typically manufactured. Sources of this criticism include Naomi Klein's book No Logo and Michael Moore's documentaries.

Nike has been criticized about ads which referred to empowering women in the U.S. while engaging in practices in East Asian factories which some felt disempowered women.[22]

During the 1990s, Nike faced criticism for use of child labor in Cambodia and Pakistan in factories it contracted to manufacture soccer balls. Although Nike took action to curb or at least reduce the practice of child labor, they continue to contract their production to companies that operate in areas where inadequate regulation and monitoring make it hard to ensure that child labor is not being used.[23]

These campaigns have been taken up by many[weasel words] college and universities, especially anti-globalisation groups as well as several anti-sweatshop groups such as the United Students Against Sweatshops.[24] Despite these campaigns, however, Nike's annual revenues have increased from $6.4 billion in 1996 to nearly $17 billion in 2007, according to the company's annual reports.

A July 2008 investigation by Australian Channel 7 News found a large number of cases involving forced labour in one of the biggest Nike apparel factories. The factory located in Malaysia was filmed by an undercover crew who found instances of squalid living conditions and forced labour. Nike have since stated that they will take corrective action to ensure the continued abuse does not occur. [25]

Following Liu Xiang's withdrawal from the 2008 Olympics, Nike admitted seeking help from "relevant government departments" in the Chinese government to track down and identify an anonymous..Also why do we buy dolls made in China as is American Girl  ? We are beyond the time to check were our products come from-just look at the unemployment stats !   Buy from Crafters, look up American Products and buy from them-support your own country-bad enough college student come here from other countries and get free educations on us as long as they promise to go back and use it in their country-now that makes sense, doesn't it? NO!
   

Get rid of foreign call centers

     AOl is famous for call centers/help centers in India, Afghanistan and more, but you have the right to say as soon as a person answers" Can I ask where you are located?" and tell them you want to talk to an operator in the US.
     More services use as I'm sure you know foreign call centers, cheap. Possibly you can call a new service and ask up front, who they outsource to, and if they say India etc. tell them you won't do business. We also need to write out state Representatives, and yes I know most won't, but need to tell them to stop supporting American companies who send business overseas, but want American money to buy their products. You don't vote for those people in congress, simple. I am going to work on a list of finding out which congressional representatives support overseas companies coming from America.

Wisdom, Favor and Anointing, Three Blessings

       Today I received The three Blessings CD from the 700 club. Pat Robertson starts his lesson by saying something like this-if you were to ask God for three life- long things what would you ask? So he came up with those three, wisdom, favor and anointing. I would ask for health, health for my children and their children. For me that equals three blessings.
     Of course if I were a lot younger I'd ask for a good job, a great car/truck and money in the bank. Once you really sit, listen and take it in, The Three Blessings equal all of what I'd ask for and more, young or old. Speaking of blessings,
     today I visited a nice friend and his wife. The guy has twenty percent lung capacity. We joke  around about things and he mentions that maybe he'll need a sweater soon and I want to jump in his pool. So I joke with him, I can be your sweater. I'll wrap myself around you and keep you warm.
        His answer left me speechless and thoughtful. Nance he said, soon I won't have anything left to wrap yourself around. Usually I can joke myself out of anything, no matter how deep, but not this. In a few minutes he looks at me and tells me to, go ahead and jump in the pool if you want. I really did want to, but was without towels and a change of clothes to ride home in.
