STUPOR TUESDAY?

Submitted by ub on

Tuesday changes everything in this seemingly never ending camp pain. While some of the candidates keep rolling on with their hot air, Stupor Tuesday may be make-or-break is day for some political rivals.

Most states have awarded delegates on a proportional basis so far. But that changes in an effort to help a front-runner and hinder those falling behind.

Stupor is defined as a state of near-unconsciousness or insensibility. A daze, or state of unconsciousness, insensibility, oblivion?

90 year old George Martin is dead. The brilliant music producer guided The Beatles' historic transformation from rowdy club act to musical and cultural icons. I recall speaking with him once and my initial impression was that he had great vision and was a lovely person.

The 2016 camp pain has disintegrated into a playground brawl and a cafeteria food fight.

The activities that relate to influencing future actions and policies of a government or getting and keeping power for people and their opinions about what should be done according to political thoughts and opinions.

It has come to mud slinging and accusations of dirty tricks. Will an unfortunate flirtation with fascism lead to more violence, or death?

All the world wide women who manage to be both mothers and successful professionals are Superhuman.
We are blessed to know and love them. Wives, daughters and so many good friends.

Millions of working women face difficult life circumstances. Some are single mothers; many struggle to find any job; others support husbands who cannot find jobs. Many cope with a work life in which good day care is either unavailable or very expensive; school schedules do not match work schedules; and schools themselves are failing to educate their children.

Spring Has Sprung

Submitted by ub on

A series of storm systems will bring major impacts to the Western, Central, and Southern U.S this week. Heavy rainfall and severe weather are expected with localized rainfall amounts exceeding one foot will be possible. The heavy rainfall could lead to flooding of rivers and urban areas.

Tornadoes, lightning, floods, rip currents and early season heat - Spring is three months of danger that can imperil the unprepared. It roars in like a lion, rampaging across the United States throughout March, April and May. And there’s one hazard that can strike the coasts at any time: tsunamis.

Some say every failure makes a person stronger and more learned. If that is the case, this guy may be the strongest and most knowledgeable person running. Are voters willing to give him the benefit of the doubt?

Have you had your fill of the Republican presidential primary? If not, you’re a glutton for punishment and you’ll be happy to know Republicans candidates are crawling closer to the 1,237 delegates necessary to win the GOP nomination on the first convention ballot. Ted Cruz has now become Donald Trump's major rival.
