NASA’S GRIFFIN ORBITS TUSCALOOSA
By Mike Woodard mike@tuscaloosa-shopper.com -Former NASA Chief Administrator, Michael Griffin spoke in Tuscaloosa this week about the end of the shuttle, and America’s potential return to the moon, which he hopes will occur by 2018. Griffin was appointed as a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at the University of Alabama Huntsville. “For me, the single overarching goal of human space flight is the human settlement of the solar system, and eventually beyond.” Griffin said. Griffin was formerly a rocket scientist at the Applied Physics Laboratory of John Hopkins University. He held a leading role in space missions at the Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, but describes himself as “a simple aerospace engineer from a small town.” “Landing on the moon was a symbol of America doing the impossible.” Griffin said, “40 years later and we can’t do it.” Griffin said that most other human achievements have progressed from their starting point. He cited Lewis and Clark’s expedition across America, noting that 40 years later roads were opening up across the country, whereas, the United States has no vehicle at present with which to revisit the moon. “In a couple of years the space shuttle will be retired and the only way the United States will have for going to the international space station will be on a Russia rocket.” Griffin lamented. Griffin noted that the Obama administration is studying the future mission of NASA, but that at present funding levels the manned exploration of space will be impossible. “Our mission should be to return to the moon, establish a base, learn how to use the resources there, and use them to travel to Mars.” Griffin has the vision outlined for NASA, but now the nation must seize his vision for it to happen.
The Tuscaloosa Rotary Memorial Foundation announced this week a $100,000 donation to Caring Days, for the construction of a new building. The fastest growing segment of the population today is people over 85 years of age, and approximately 47% of them have some form of dementia. Caring Days is a local organization committed to serving adults with special needs associated with dementia. (artistic rendition of the building shown.)

EDITOR’S COMMENTS...
Mike Woodard
There’s a good thing about hitting bottom. There’s no where to go but up. And that appears to be what has happened with the economy. The federal reserve has announced that the recession is over. This doesn’t mean the economy has returned to boom times, it just means it doesn’t appear to be going any lower. The “down” has being taken out. There is a group of people who have not missed a lick of income. They had jobs that never had an hour or pay cut, and they just kept on making money throughout these times as if nothing had happened. They were worried things would get bad for them, to lose their income, and they started saving for a rainy day….just in case the “thing” got to them. Now, as the economy edges up slightly, and over time, these people will stop worrying about putting aside more for a rainy day, assume the sun is returning, and they’ll start spending again. As they increase their spending they will force the hiring, or rehiring, of others in the economy. These people, pleased to have just gotten a job, and also assuming they got their job due to an expanding economy, will also spend. After a time the economy improves to where things have built up a good head of steam...and the economic woes of 2008 and 2009 will fade into history. This is how recoveries occur. I lived through the 1980 and 1981 recession as an automobile dealer. The process that I have just described about how things will return to normal is what happened way back then. It’s an economic cycle that has occurred and recurred time and time again over the history of man, and our nation. It’s not just “economics”, this occurs in nature. Feast or famine it’s called. A long drought is a recession, and a rain soaked spring is an expansion. Our nation and individuals are supposed to prepare for the period of drought in times of feast. Yet in our times of feast we, as a nation, have consumed our entire harvests, and borrowed harvest from others with a promise to pay them back. Today the average American family owes $100,000 in debt through it’s own government. Some have tried to stand up to this insanity, but most have stood idly by for the past 30+ years as this debt has been expanded. In times of drought it is not a good time to spare the plants water that you have...this has forced our government to rely on even more borrowing in this economic drought. Our government should have been using up it’s savings, rather than borrowing, to keep the system going in tough times. A lot of blame is laid upon the administration of today, and they may bear part of the responsibility. But the cold hard truth is that we all, in sum total, bear the responsibility of allowing what has happened to happen over the past many, many years. Now comes the spring, the promise of it anyway. Over the next couple of years our economy will being to grow again, and we will have, once again, the opportunity to live within our means and to get our house in order as individuals and as a nation. But, will we? We are not in revolt, but now, and coming, is a time for activism. E-mail Mike: Mike Woodard, Publisher Tuscaloosa Sun mike@tuscaloosa-shopper.com

AUGUST West Alabama Gardening - With Candy Taylor - Rye Grass and winter wheat. Lot’s of deer hunters are thinking they need to get to planting the deer spots to bring in the big bucks for the hunting season. Now is the time to plant. We are at the first of September, we’ve had some serious rains, and more on the way. It looks like mother nature is going to smile on deer plots if hunters will take advantage of the rains and wet soil. As these seeds should emerge quickly. Fertilize with a low nitrogen, high potassium formulas such as 5-0-15. For the grasses around your yard, it’s also a good time to seed bare areas with fescue...and plant ryegrass to give your lawn green color during the winter months. You’ll want to plant annual ryegrass in your lawn, because it dies off earlier in the spring, preventing it from competing with your warm season grasses emerging in the spring. For deer plots you’ll want to buy perennial ryegrass because it survives longer in the spring. For dove hunting you’ll want to find corn fields where farmers left a considerable amount of corn in the field.

(NU) - Perhaps more so than many adults, tweens worry about global warming and pollution. Now, many of these youth are ready to bring change to their families, schools and communities. According to a recent Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA) and Staples Foundation for Learning (SFFL) survey of more than 1,200 youths, ages 11-13, 92 percent of tweens said they are “very concerned” or “somewhat concerned” about the environment. Nearly half recycle or reuse their food and drink containers, and 40 percent would watch less television and play fewer video games to save energy. One example, Florida’s Edgewater Boys & Girls Club Torch Club, was named a winner of the “Be Great. Be Green” National Project Award for the Club’s efforts to educate members about environmental stewardship and sustainability of resources, while also motivating neighbors to take action. Awarded by BGCA and SFFL, the national award is designed to raise awareness about environmental issues and motivate youth, educators and parents to take action. “We all know how important it is to protect our country’s natural resources so they can be enjoyed for generations to come,” said Camille Winbush, an actress best known for her roles on “The Secret Life of An American Teenager” and “The Bernie Mac Show,” and a judge of the “Be Great, Be Green” award. “When youth are educated about environmental issues, they become involved in their communities and are able to make big changes.”

Tweens care about the environment, but they need your help.
Along with SFFL, BGCA wants parents, educators and children to take a tiny green step by being on the lookout for green office and school supplies throughout the year: • Recycled pencils. The good old No. 2 isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, but now you can find recycled pencils. Made from some of the billions of scrapped tires in stockpiles today, the RENEW Recycled Tire Pencil’s casing is made from 30 percent recycled tires. With a No. 2 graphite core, the pencil also contains biodegradable latex-free erasers. • Eco-friendly pens. If you’re more of a pen person, be on the lookout for recycled and biodegradable versions by Pilot or Industries of the Blind. • Re-binders. No student can get through the school year without a binder. Recycled binders from ReBinder are not only eco-friendly, but sturdy and cheap. For more information, visit www.staplesfoundation.org and www.bgca.org.

(NU) - Each year, 500,000 women worldwide develop cervical cancer. Around 300,000 women die from the disease. And yet, cervical cancer is preventable – regular screening, along with vaccination, could prevent nearly every case. To help women protect themselves, the European Cervical Cancer Association (ECCA), along with partners in the United States, recently launched the Pearl of Wisdom Campaign to Prevent Cervical Cancer. The campaign teaches women how to protect their health through regular screening and other measures. The campaign also promotes the Pearl of Wisdom as the global symbol for cervical cancer prevention. What is cervical cancer? Cancer can develop in any part of the body, including the cervix – the lower, narrow part of a woman’s uterus. The human papillomavirus (HPV), a common, sexually transmitted virus, causes cervical cancer. Most HPV infections go away without symptoms or treatment, but certain high-risk types of HPV can cause the cervix to produce abnormal cells, which can eventually become cancerous. Why screening? Screening helps find abnormal cervical cells before they become cancerous. When caught early, these abnormal cells can be easily removed to prevent cancer from developing. Cervical cancer doesn’t have symptoms until the disease reaches advanced stages, so women should be screened regularly all through their life, even if they feel healthy.

Screenings and vaccinations can prevent nearly every case of cervical cancer.
The Pap test looks for abnormal cervical cells. The HPV test detects high-risk types of HPV, which can lead to abnormal cervical cells. In women 30 and older, the Pap and HPV tests together provide the best screening protection against cervical cancer. Girls and young women can be vaccinated against the two most common cancer-causing HPV types – 16 and 18 – which are responsible for about 70 percent of cervical cancers. Studies have shown that vaccination is highly effective at preventing cervical disease. However, vaccination does not protect against all high-risk HPV types. “Even women who have been vaccinated must be screened to protect against cervical cancer caused by the HPV types not included in the vaccines,” said Dr. Philip Davies, director of the ECCA.

WELCOME TO BRISTOL and race for the drivers. Talk about a workout! Last week the Red Bull ran, nervously, first to the finish when Brian Vickers took the hounds tooth flag. (Had to throw that one in there for the Bear). But, the fact is that Jeff Gordon and Dale Jr. had just about all they could take of back pack finishes or DNF over the past few races...and they took 2nd and 3rd respectively. It was about time! That was enough to send Jeff Gordon back into the 2nd spot in the cup standings, with Tony Stewart still at number one.

Musings On Faith With Tom Woodard
Find past and current Musings on Faith articles online at www.downyonderantiques.com
“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Hebrews 9:14, KJV).” The writer of Hebrews, whose name shall forever remain unknown to us, but who was a great Messenger of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, had been speaking of the blood sacrifices of the Old Testament. Then, in verse 14 of Chapter 9, he compared the once and for all sacrifice of Christ on the cross to that Old Testament sacrifice of bulls and goats, which could never fully ‘pay the price’ for our sins. But Jesus Christ did pay that price, for us, once and forever! We need to grasp the great truth that we need to turn from “dead works” to serving “the living God”. Let all that we do be pursuant to His will, discerned through meditation and prayer. Then let us be bold, as we stand strong for our beloved America and for our Lord and King, Jesus Christ. I believe that He is calling us to a renewal and revival of our faith, and of our service to Him and to our Country. Pray on this, and let God lead. “God bless America, land that I love; stand beside her, and guide her, through the night, with the Light from above!” Liberty is fragile and perishable. We must defend it. Yours in Christ, Tom

The government gives us statistics on the participation of hunting and fishing. The numbers that come from the federal government only include those sixteen and older while each state will refine the number down to every license sold. In 2006, those over sixteen years of age who fished or hunted (or both), totaled over 42 million. There is no doubt that this group of men and women are important to our country and our economy. Those same statistics tell us this faction spent over 76 million dollars toward their outdoor activity. A recent conversation that I had with the manager of a large hunting and fishing business told me that, so far, this year had been better than last even in the bad economy that we are presently in. Hunting and fishing are also valuable in other areas of our life. They are still one of the very, very few activities that bridge the generation gap. Are you feeling some disconnect from your son or daughter? Try a hunting or fishing trip. Without ever saying a word, more healing will take place in that time, than might have been accomplished in months. If you do this, remember to go with no agenda other than to be with your child. Don’t bring up the problems that may exist between you. Don’t look for times to “make your point.” And don’t force your hunting or fishing expertise on them. Just go and let God begin to do the work that you have been unable to do. I promise you – He will. All in all, the outdoors is a special place. It was created by God with purpose. It is not by chance that the outdoors holds so many possibilities. Again, God planned it that way. Hunters and fishermen simply enjoy it more than most. The tragedy however would be if we never recognized the Divine purpose of creation; if we kept using it without letting it speak to us about God: His nature, His power, His qualities. What a waste our outdoor experiences would be if we never looked up at Him and asked, “God, what do You want me to know? What do You want me to do?” If you’ve never done that, I invite you to. Be assured, He will speak. He has many different ways of doing that, but each will be specific to your desires and needs. He will not only work out the relationships in your life that need repairing, but He will restore your greatest one – the one you have with Him.

Fear is a terrible thing. It is used by folks to turn us toward or against ideas. Take the present health care argument going on. Some groups wish to scare us into believing the new plan would result in older people dying. Other groups wish to scare us into believing that if we stay with the present situation we’ll all go bankrupt from it. Frankly, the use of fear doesn’t scare me much….does it you? I guess maybe because I’ve got a few more years under my belt, and have been fooled (yes I admit it) by some of the best hucksters in the world. They all know the use of fear works on most folks. The truth is usually somewhere in between…that’s my experience anyway. Health care costs won’t go up a dime under the demos plan….well, that ain’t true. Health care costs won’t go up a dime if we just leave things alone...well, that ain’t true either! You and your doctor (if you have one) can do whatever you want to today and the government can’t decide….well, that isn’t true for Medicare is it?, and your insurance company decides today! You and your doctor can decide whatever you want to...but that doesn’t mean your insurance company is going to pay for it! The demos plan will have the government decide if you live or die...well, is that already true with Medicare of today? That’s government run “insurance”...so if that’s true...then it’s already happening. The government will run private health care insurance out of business. Let’s see...the United States Postal System delivers mail but UPS, Fed Ex, and DHL...and a few others run along side of it just fine….so that hasn’t happened in that business. But, see the fear? Fear that the government is going to kill grandma, fear that the government is going to run your insurance company broke, fear that the country can’t afford it...well, maybe that’s justified fear. Maybe we should fear something? Naaa, I won’t help. The bottom line is, why don’t the powers that be start working on solutions rather than trying to scare the dog out of everybody? Why do they yell instead of talk? You know why? Because nobody listens anymore. Watch the pundits on TV disrespect their visitors if they disagree with them. They’ll interrupt them and talk over them….sometimes it sounds like a cackle of chickens. They don’t want to work with each other so they don’t. It’s all about these characters re-election plans! Nobody is going to destroy America folks...anything done can be undone. The founding fathers saw to it that we change administrations time and again. Let’s let go of the fear and let common sense guide us.
