      <title>Obama's inaugural speech -- Just in case you missed it.</title>
      <link>http://people.tribe.net/cheshiretigger/blog/7e76c909-4825-4aa9-9c9a-41cfeb34f966</link>
      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/cheshiretigger/blog/7e76c909-4825-4aa9-9c9a-41cfeb34f966"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/1a1/8cf/1a18cff0-07b2-4100-848d-17a20f4a4193.thumb" width="65" height="48" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;(CNN) Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States and the nation's first African-American president Tuesday. This is a transcript of his prepared speech.&#xD;
&#xD;
My fellow citizens:&#xD;
&#xD;
I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.&#xD;
&#xD;
Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often, the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebearers, and true to our founding documents.&#xD;
&#xD;
So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.&#xD;
&#xD;
That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.&#xD;
&#xD;
These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land -- a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.&#xD;
&#xD;
Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America: They will be met.&#xD;
&#xD;
On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.&#xD;
&#xD;
On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.&#xD;
&#xD;
We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.&#xD;
&#xD;
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of shortcuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the fainthearted -- for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things -- some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor -- who have carried us up the long, rugged path toward prosperity and freedom.&#xD;
&#xD;
For us, they packed up their few worldly possessions and traveled across oceans in search of a new life.&#xD;
&#xD;
For us, they toiled in sweatshops and settled the West; endured the lash of the whip and plowed the hard earth.&#xD;
&#xD;
For us, they fought and died, in places like Concord and Gettysburg; Normandy and Khe Sahn.&#xD;
&#xD;
Time and again, these men and women struggled and sacrificed and worked till their hands were raw so that we might live a better life. They saw America as bigger than the sum of our individual ambitions; greater than all the differences of birth or wealth or faction.&#xD;
&#xD;
This is the journey we continue today. We remain the most prosperous, powerful nation on Earth. Our workers are no less productive than when this crisis began. Our minds are no less inventive, our goods and services no less needed than they were last week or last month or last year. Our capacity remains undiminished. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions -- that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America.&#xD;
&#xD;
For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of the economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act -- not only to create new jobs, but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place, and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its cost. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. And all this we will do.&#xD;
&#xD;
Now, there are some who question the scale of our ambitions -- who suggest that our system cannot tolerate too many big plans. Their memories are short. For they have forgotten what this country has already done; what free men and women can achieve when imagination is joined to common purpose, and necessity to courage.&#xD;
&#xD;
What the cynics fail to understand is that the ground has shifted beneath them -- that the stale political arguments that have consumed us for so long no longer apply. The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works -- whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is yes, we intend to move forward. Where the answer is no, programs will end. And those of us who manage the public's dollars will be held to account -- to spend wisely, reform bad habits, and do our business in the light of day -- because only then can we restore the vital trust between a people and their government.&#xD;
&#xD;
Nor is the question before us whether the market is a force for good or ill. Its power to generate wealth and expand freedom is unmatched, but this crisis has reminded us that without a watchful eye, the market can spin out of control -- and that a nation cannot prosper long when it favors only the prosperous. The success of our economy has always depended not just on the size of our gross domestic product, but on the reach of our prosperity; on our ability to extend opportunity to every willing heart -- not out of charity, but because it is the surest route to our common good.&#xD;
&#xD;
As for our common defense, we reject as false the choice between our safety and our ideals. Our Founding Fathers, faced with perils we can scarcely imagine, drafted a charter to assure the rule of law and the rights of man, a charter expanded by the blood of generations. Those ideals still light the world, and we will not give them up for expedience's sake. And so to all other peoples and governments who are watching today, from the grandest capitals to the small village where my father was born: Know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more.&#xD;
&#xD;
Recall that earlier generations faced down fascism and communism not just with missiles and tanks, but with sturdy alliances and enduring convictions. They understood that our power alone cannot protect us, nor does it entitle us to do as we please. Instead, they knew that our power grows through its prudent use; our security emanates from the justness of our cause, the force of our example, the tempering qualities of humility and restraint.&#xD;
&#xD;
We are the keepers of this legacy. Guided by these principles once more, we can meet those new threats that demand even greater effort -- even greater cooperation and understanding between nations. We will begin to responsibly leave Iraq to its people, and forge a hard-earned peace in Afghanistan. With old friends and former foes, we will work tirelessly to lessen the nuclear threat, and roll back the specter of a warming planet. We will not apologize for our way of life, nor will we waver in its defense, and for those who seek to advance their aims by inducing terror and slaughtering innocents, we say to you now that our spirit is stronger and cannot be broken; you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you.&#xD;
&#xD;
For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth; and because we have tasted the bitter swill of civil war and segregation, and emerged from that dark chapter stronger and more united, we cannot help but believe that the old hatreds shall someday pass; that the lines of tribe shall soon dissolve; that as the world grows smaller, our common humanity shall reveal itself; and that America must play its role in ushering in a new era of peace.&#xD;
&#xD;
To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and mutual respect. To those leaders around the globe who seek to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West: Know that your people will judge you on what you can build, not what you destroy. To those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent, know that you are on the wrong side of history; but that we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist.&#xD;
&#xD;
To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it.&#xD;
&#xD;
As we consider the road that unfolds before us, we remember with humble gratitude those brave Americans who, at this very hour, patrol far-off deserts and distant mountains. They have something to tell us today, just as the fallen heroes who lie in Arlington whisper through the ages. We honor them not only because they are guardians of our liberty, but because they embody the spirit of service; a willingness to find meaning in something greater than themselves. And yet, at this moment -- a moment that will define a generation -- it is precisely this spirit that must inhabit us all.&#xD;
&#xD;
For as much as government can do and must do, it is ultimately the faith and determination of the American people upon which this nation relies. It is the kindness to take in a stranger when the levees break, the selflessness of workers who would rather cut their hours than see a friend lose their job which sees us through our darkest hours. It is the firefighter's courage to storm a stairway filled with smoke, but also a parent's willingness to nurture a child, that finally decides our fate.&#xD;
&#xD;
Our challenges may be new. The instruments with which we meet them may be new. But those values upon which our success depends -- hard work and honesty, courage and fair play, tolerance and curiosity, loyalty and patriotism -- these things are old. These things are true. They have been the quiet force of progress throughout our history. What is demanded then is a return to these truths. What is required of us now is a new era of responsibility -- a recognition, on the part of every American, that we have duties to ourselves, our nation and the world; duties that we do not grudgingly accept but rather seize gladly, firm in the knowledge that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so defining of our character, than giving our all to a difficult task.&#xD;
&#xD;
This is the price and the promise of citizenship.&#xD;
&#xD;
This is the source of our confidence -- the knowledge that God calls on us to shape an uncertain destiny.&#xD;
&#xD;
This is the meaning of our liberty and our creed -- why men and women and children of every race and every faith can join in celebration across this magnificent Mall, and why a man whose father less than 60 years ago might not have been served at a local restaurant can now stand before you to take a most sacred oath.&#xD;
&#xD;
So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:&#xD;
&#xD;
"Let it be told to the future world ... that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive... that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet [it]."&#xD;
&#xD;
America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested, we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back, nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations. &#xD;
&#xD;

										&lt;div&gt;I stood with Rob (and hundreds of others) in Sproul Plaza this morning at UC Berkeley with tears of joy and relief streaming down my cheeks as President Barack Hussein Obama, 44th President of the United States of America was sworn into office.  &#xD;
&#xD;
I then stood through his remarkably moving and incredibly articulate speech and was grateful once again for the choice this country made in this particular election.  &#xD;
&#xD;
This is a day I will never forget.&#xD;

&#xD;
I'd like to add that there should be no questions for anyone on my friends list that No on 8 is the only way to vote on that proposition.   Discrimination isn't acceptable.   Period.&#xD;
&#xD;
I'd also like to state that No on 4 is vital to the health and welfare of many, many young women.    I understand that parents would like controls but many young women live in untenable situations with parents that are not like the good parents I'm sure that you are.  Please keep those girls in mind when you go to the polls.&#xD;
&#xD;
I still have hope today that we'll end this election with people having done the right thing(s).  &#xD;
&#xD;
Obama for President!&#xD;
No on 8!&#xD;
No on 4!&#xD;
&#xD;
Have a safe, and beautiful Election Day and get out there and Vote.  &#xD;

      <title>The 3 Little Bears</title>

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/cheshiretigger/blog/bd72851a-ef8f-400d-8d6c-297cddd7981e"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/06f/fdb/06ffdb14-a519-46e7-931c-7d3b6c36f239.thumb" width="65" height="58" alt="" /&gt;

										&lt;div&gt;The Three Bears&#xD;
  A far more accurate account of the events of that fateful morning...&#xD;
  Baby bear goes downstairs, sits in his small chair at the table.&#xD;
  He looks into his small bowl. It is empty. 'Who's been eating my&#xD;
  porridge?' he squeaks.&#xD;
  Daddy Bear arrives at the big table and sits in his big chair. He looks into&#xD;
  his big bowl and it is also empty. 'Who's been eating my porridge??' he&#xD;

      <description>&lt;div&gt;Just a quick thank you for still being here.  I've missed you but I know that you're doing something right and have been doing something right all these years when I find myself compulsively checking to see if Tribe is back up yet.  &#xD;
&#xD;
You've built and maintained a great community here and I hope you can keep it going for years to come.  If we have a week down here and there...so be it.  &#xD;
&#xD;
I tend to think of it as absence making my heart grow fonder vacations.  Not that I want you to go away for longer, mind you, but I am always so happy to see you come back.&#xD;
&#xD;
So thank you Tribe.  You rock! :)   &lt;/div&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;a href="http://people.tribe.net/cheshiretigger/blog/1139fc1c-bef9-4ee0-ae23-a97b4ac53928"&gt;  						          &lt;img class=" picThumb" src="http://images.tribe.net/tribe/upload/photo/b8d/d13/b8dd1380-b7fb-41b1-b84f-9992245b129b.thumb" width="65" height="65" alt="" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
										&lt;div&gt;Can you imagine living in a place where birth control is considered an "abortion" and health insurers won't cover it? Where even rape victims are denied emergency contraception? &#xD;
&#xD;
It seems unbelievable, but the Bush Administration is quietly trying to redefine "abortion" to include birth control. The Houston Chronicle says this could wipe out dozens of state laws that protect women's reproductive freedom and protect rape victims.1 Access to basic health care for millions of women would be jeopardized. And it's being pushed as a "rule change"—meaning, it doesn't need congressional approval. &#xD;
&#xD;
Can you sign an emergency message to Health and Human Services Secretary Mike Leavitt, whose department is considering this rule change right now? Tell him: "Contraception is NOT abortion. The Bush Administration's proposal to change the definition of abortion and reduce women's access to birth control must be stopped." &#xD;
&#xD;
Clicking here will add your name to this message: &#xD;
pol.moveon.org/contraception/o.pl &#xD;
&#xD;
The best way to beat back this proposal is to show Secretary Leavitt massive public outrage—that's why today we're launching this petition jointly with Planned Parenthood Action Fund. Together, we'll deliver every signature to Leavitt. You can help add to our momentum by forwarding this message to friends. &#xD;
&#xD;
Here's what some others are saying about this proposal: &#xD;
&#xD;
The draft regulation would define birth control as abortion...it could deny access to critical family planning for women across the country.—Letter signed by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and 26 other senators.2 &#xD;
&#xD;
The draft rule could void laws in 27 states that require insurance companies to provide birth control coverage for women requesting it [and] laws in 14 states requiring that rape victims receive counseling and access to emergency, day-after contraceptives.—Houston Chronicle editorial3 &#xD;
The administration needs to stop playing word games with women's health and state clearly they will reject any regulations that will undermine women's access to basic health care.—Cecile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood Federation of America.4 &#xD;
&#xD;
[It's] a spectacular act of complicity with the religious right... —RH Reality Check, Information and Analysis for Reproductive Health5 &#xD;
&#xD;
The birth control pill, the IUD, and emergency contraception might all become unavailable—illegal—as a result.—Brigid Riley, executive director of a Minnesota teen pregnancy prevention organization6 &#xD;
Can you help send a loud message to Secretary Leavitt that birth control is NOT abortion? Clicking here will sign your name: &#xD;

Thanks and Happy New Year!&#xD;
Tanya&#xD;
=====================================&#xD;
&#xD;
Some of the most sacred ground in Ireland has become the focus of an intense controversy. The Hill of Tara, northwest of Dublin, has been a prehistoric burial place, a pagan sanctuary, and a seat of power for the Irish kings. This narrow valley is one of the most culturally and archaeologically significant places in the world. Many monuments predate the Egyptian pyramids.  The Hill of Tara has been a sanctuary for every generation since. It is precisely because it has remained intact, unlike many comparable Continental sites, that it holds a special key to understanding the continuous progression of European civilization.&#xD;
&#xD;
 &#xD;
Now the Irish government is planning to build a four-lane highway through an adjacent valley. Early last year, archaeologists working on the route of the controversial highway near the village of Lismullin, stumbled across a vast Iron Age ceremonial enclosure, or henge, surrounded by two concentric walls. The 2,000-year-old site is just over a mile from the Hill of Tara, traditional seat of the ancient Irish kings and site of St. Patrick’s conversion of the Irish to Christianity in the fifth century A.D. The discovery of the massive henge, measuring more than 260 feet in diameter, confirms the long-held belief that the area around the hill contains a rich complex of monuments.&#xD;
 &#xD;
The extraordinary amount of archaeological remains on the Hill of Tara – burial mounds, religious enclosures, stone structures, and rock art dating from the third millennium B.C. to the twelfth century A.D.– makes it Ireland’s most spiritually and archaeologically significant site. Construction of the new M3 highway, meant to ease traffic congestion around Dublin, threatens not only the Hill of Tara’s timeless quality, but also newly discovered archaeological sites in the surrounding valley.&#xD;
 &#xD;
Lismullin and other sites that stand in the way of the new road are now approved for destruction. Although archaeologists and concerned Irish politicians are rallying support worldwide for the protection of the Hill of Tara, the iconic site remains in great peril. The European Commission has initiated legal action against the Irish government over the M3, charging Ireland with failing to protect its own heritage.&#xD;
 &#xD;
&#xD;
Tomorrow, Tuesday. January 11, 2008, there is a National Day of Action in Ireland, but it is important that protests are made internationally also. Many of you have asked how you can help.&#xD;
&#xD;
 &#xD;
&#xD;
We are asking that people write to important decision makers in the Irish government expressing your deep concern. You can either write your own letter of concern to Emer Deane, the Consul-General of Ireland in San Francisco, (address below) or cut and paste the following letter:&#xD;
&#xD;
 &#xD;
&#xD;
Dear Madam,&#xD;
&#xD;
I am writing to you with deep and urgent concern regarding the freeway that is being constructed through the valley of the Hill of Tara, Lismullin and the Skyrne Valley in Ireland. &#xD;
&#xD;
  &#xD;
&#xD;
The Hill of Tara and its environs is famous worldwide and being a National and a World Monument sit, is one of the most culturally, spiritually and archaeologically significant places in the world .  People from all over the world, come to Ireland because of its beauty, its heritage, and its history.  Ireland is now in danger of losing a vital part of all three for the sake of a new road and a massive interchange by the hill of Tara. &#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
We urge the Irish government to reconsider this decision and choose one of the many intelligent options that are still available : to improve the existing N3 motorway as per the original advertised scheme; to re-open the Navan-Dublin railway line, or just simply to move the M3 motorway from this delicate landscape, where it is currently environmentally unsound.&#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
Every effort should be made to preserve this national/world monument and to halt this motorway, and stop what is ultimately the destruction of Ireland's heritage. &#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
Yours sincerely,&#xD;
etc...&#xD;
&#xD;
The letter should be emailed to:&#xD;
&#xD;
The Consul General of Ireland, SF. Her email address:  Emer.deane@dfa.ie&#xD;
&#xD;
 &#xD;
&#xD;
Also, cc it to :&#xD;
the Environment Minister, Minister Gormley : minister@environ.ie&#xD;
The Taoiseach,  Prime Minister  of Ireland: taoiseach@taoiseach.gov.ie&#xD;
&#xD;
Plus BCC it to Tarawatch:  info@tarawatch.org  (so that they have a copy, for safety).&#xD;
&#xD;
&#xD;
Please write this email over the next 24 hours and forward it to interested people on your own list. Please BCC it so that everyone’s address does not become world property.&lt;/div&gt;</description>

&#xD;
Sunday looks like it is going to be a big packing day for me.  &#xD;
&#xD;
I have an appointment at 10 in San Leandro, but will be at the house by 11:30ish and should be there all afternoon and evening packing.  I don't know how much help with actual packing I can use, but I'd love company if anyone wants to come by.&#xD;
&#xD;
PM me for address and phone #. &#xD;
