A balanced life or a centered life

We’ve all heard about the need to have a balanced life.  I’ve thought a bit about this and am not clear this is the best approach.
  

Best political interviewer on TV?

Criteria

  • Who does he/she interview? 
  • Do they ask the right questions? 
  • Do they follow up if the interviewee ducks the question or gives an misleading response?

My response?  John Stewart.  When your best interviewer is on Comedy Central, you know the major media outlets have failed.
  

Have you ever thought deeply about Free Will?

I have and it is enough to send you to the funny farm.  Do you believe in Free Will?  Why or why not?  If we don’t have free will, then you could believe in it or not and not even be aware that you had no choice.  Strange.

Is belief a choice?

I don’t think so.  You can select your sources of information / wisdom and this willl influence your beliefs, but the actual "What do I believe?" seems beyond choice.
 
If I’m right, what are the implications?  Other comments?

Tree Trimming

             The Village manager can not tell  A.E.P how to trim where or why,
        the last i knew A.E.P has a 50 year right of way agreement with Granville
        to trim, cut down or do whatever they feel necessary, they could take the 45
        foot christmas tree and turn it into a Charlie brown christmas tree if it’s in the

Walking Tour!

One of the best on the walking tour was Footloose!  What a great place!  Thank you for the great experience!  The barn outback is outstanding!

Christmas Tree Excess

I am sure this will not sit well with some here in Granville but personally I do not like the Trees running down South Main St. They have come and marked out the utilities so the 4x4 poles can be dug into the ground to support the electrical wires. The markers, posts, and wires take away more than the trees add. Plus it is all just a big waste of money.
  

Mysterious voices

Could we have a serious discussion of the pros and cons involved in requiring that posters to the Granville Press use their given names? (signed) Jerry Griffin

Moral Relativism at the Associated Press

The Associated Press has run a picture of someone’s son dying of wounds suffered in the Afghan War despite repeated pleas from the son’s parents.

Dan Rogers

Dan Rogers has done so much for this community. I do not know why the village of Granville always gives him such a hard time? He fixed up his home much better than anyone else around. Look at the amount of detail he put into his home. He is now tring to improve Granville even further by opening up a taco stand. I think it is a great idea. We need more food variety in Granville.

Thank Jack

I may not have agreed with all of your content, the slant you gave some articles, or the way you encouraged heated debate, but I appreciated your passion and willingness to follow your dreams. Your work on the Granville Press, help for the senior population and your work at the school will also be appreciated. Thank you and bless you.

What the "profits to earnings ratio" tells us

The other day President Obama talked of the “profit to earnings ratio” as he was trying to convince people that the time to invest in the stock market might be here.

Does the Free Market have a Genetic Flaw?

A free market is a market in which the prices for goods and services are set by agreement between the Buyers and Sellers with no external intervention. Generally speaking, Buyers favor lower prices in the market. Sellers with lower prices are rewarded, through purchases, by Buyers. Over the long run, Sellers with lower prices will survive while their competitors will fail and exit the market.

The Right of Revolution

Ceteris Paribus…

It is time to say, enough is enough. This country was founded in revolution. Thomas Jefferson advocated frequent uprisings to unleash the people from the inevitable bonds of oppression. In this day, we do not need guns to achieve our goals. The tyrant who oppresses us, my friends, is not in a desert half the globe away. He is on Wall Street.
