Hillary Clinton has announced her intentions to run for president.  For years many have speculated if Hillary would run for president.   Name recognition will probably be valuable asset to the campaign. Is the country actually ready for a woman president? I say yes, but it is about the issues.  It should not be about the candidates and not about their race or gender.  The nation needs a candidate with wisdom to be its Commander and Chief each candidate should be evaluated objectively.  Hillary Clinton should be given a fair chance for the run for presidency.
This Super Bowl, Super Bowl 41, two former Tampa Bay Buccaneers coaches will go toe to toe for a Super Bowl ring.  Tony Dungy, now coach of the Indianapolis Colts, was head coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1996 to 2001. Lovie Smith, now head coach for the Chicago Bears, was an assistant coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 1996 to 2000.
Lovie Smith and Tony Dungy are also the first African-American head coaches to make it to the Super Bowl. Each of these men are well respected and Tampa Bay will be watching to see the outcome.
Public school students in Grades 4, 8, and 10 are required to take the Writing portion of the FCAT.  The 2007 Writing FCAT is scheduled to take place February 6-7, 2007.   A detailed schedule of the 2006-2007 FCAT is offered on the Florida Department of Education web site.   Along with the FCAT schedule visitors to the Florida Department of Education web site can find other information related to the FCAT such as: relased FCAT tests, an FCAT fact sheet and school districts of Florida FCAT scores.
Parents can also view the FCATÂ Parent Network site to get other FCAT information.
The FCAT Parent Network incorporates technology and state-of-the-art security measures to ensure parents can access their child’s scores as soon as they are available. Parents will receive a letter from their child’s school with the appropriate login and password information. The website provides parents with scores, resources and additional information on the FCAT in English, Spanish and Haitian-Creole.
Most people of heard that a a family was kicked off the plane after their 3 year-old had a temper tantrum and would not be seated. According to news reports the airline says they were already delayed and could not wait any longer for the parents to get the little girl under control and in her seat. The airline,AirTran, said they were trying to obey federal aviation rules, which require children over 2 to be seated and buckled in their own seat.
Airtran did refund the family their money and offered to fly them round trip to wherever the company had flights. The family declined the round trip offer and said they would not fly AirTran again.
I do understand that the company does have other passengers that need to get to their destination, but as a parent I do feel for the parents in this situation. I have had tantrum filled 3 year-olds that did need a few moments to settle.  And also, in this equation is that the child probably was waiting at the airport for at least an hour and parents know how restless children can become when waiting for a long time.

President Bush is giving his annual State of the Union Address tonight. This State of the Union is expected to focus on domestic issues.
‘On January 23, 2007, President George W. Bush will fulfill his constitutional duty to “give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union” (Article II, Section3). Presidents George Washington and John Adams delivered their messages in person, but in 1801 Thomas Jefferson chose to send his in writing. That precedent held until Woodrow Wilson decided to deliver his message in person in 1913, a tradition that continues today. Franklin Roosevelt referred to it as the “State of the Union Address,” a title that became official during the Truman administration. The first radio broadcast of the message occurred in 1923, and the 1947 address was the first televised.‘
It is no secret that I am a big Coach Dungy fan. For years I have been cheering him on as he tried to make it to the Super Bowl; both with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Indianapolis Colts. Finally, they they have made it and are now going to play the Chicago Bears in Miami on February 4th. Wow!! They came back after being down 21-3. They came back with a vengeance and showed when you are down you are not out. Congratulations Coach Dungy!!!!!!
