what a lovely day..

december 27th is a good day for me. surgery one year ago today. and today proves to be great as well.

back in the lab with jorge' tomorrow. just yoga and good food today.

NEKK'D.....

as every year closes to a new start, i usually reflect on the events that have impacted the last 365 days. my birthday is the 17th, christmas is 8 days later, and then the new year. so i always have a full plate to deal with along with my "reflections." i have to say that i am looking forward to 2010 with more anticipation than any other year. i've never began a year with this much excitement and joy. i'm incredibly blessed at this point in my life. i'm training with a 5x olympian for my strength and conditioning. jorge' arrived at the perfect time. it's awesome to have someone do all of thinking on my strength and conditioning program. i enjoy being around jorge'. we share a passion for fitness and righting wrongs in the business. what i like most about jorge' is that he is not resistant to change nor is he resistant to his products not performing and having to make them better. his approach comes from his judo/martial art background. when you want to just learn every day, the sky is the limit. as a business partner with him as well, it's an honor and i look forward to ATTACKING with my new coach. along with jorge' i have dr. hurst peacock. he heals my zone. haha. dr. P keeps me on point. he allows my body to perform without any obstacles. he also keeps me on track mentally. each session with dr. P motivates me and makes me work harder. i look up to him for his patience and simplistic approach. garrett is one of my best friends. he's my number one training partner, and really a big brother. i ask him questions constantly. every thing from girls to taxes. he has a knack for saying things in the most sensible way. i met G at jiu jitsu and ever since then, we have become better and better friends. i can't wait for all of the forthcoming adventures that G and i have. after every baseball off season G and i will be training for about 4 months together. we share that passion. G brings more to the table as well. when i'm able to visit him, it is good for my soul. the solitude and quiet that his place brings rivals the mountains. G and i are very similar and understand each other well. i've reunited with my old high school baseball coach. he has been gracious in his time with me and has offered his help consistently. i've always looked up to coach wilder and i hope that he is around me for the ride. the dude really should run a mafia. hell he practically does, haha. good friends are hard to come by, but when they enter your life; WOW. one year ago tomorrow (27) dr cain operated on me. the consensus among therapists is that dr cain is just as good a doctor, if not better than dr andrews. that opinion will be public one day, but for now it is shared among every therapist i have encountered. i still can't believe that he operated on me. from there the first 4 months were pretty boring with rehab, slings, one arm, and inability to really do anything. when you couple that with accounting at auburn, you have a crock of bullshit. but it's still been an incredible journey from the day i decided that i wasn't done playing ball. in may i headed to estes park co to work at rocky mountain national park. the first day of work i almost shit my pants it was so beautiful and there was still snow everywhere. the whole place is wild and screams divinity to me and it was incredible to work at 11,000 feet, to meet dr. sigg and the others at cafe of life chiropractic in longmont, co, i was able to witness what it's like to work at a national park, haha and for the government, was able to spend some good time in a really cool city BOULDER, i met some interesting people and have so many stories it is crazy, one of my best friends, clinton was able to come out for 7 days and we lived like we were dying the whole time. hell we hitchhiked, haha. those are the times when you know what it's like to LIVE. ever since the first day in CO (jan2006) my life hasn't been the same. i miss CO every day of my life. the last 4 months being able to coach travel baseball, give lessons, meet pro players, share my passion with young players, and meet olympians has been a dream. so here we are approaching 2010, and i'm 23 years old. for once in my life i'll start the year with my DREAM in my hand. i have bullets for my gun and loyal entourage (you know who you are). i look forward to starting my first game in the big leagues at Coors Field in Denver and all i ask is that you watch. if you do you will see all you've ever wanted to know about me. playing ball is the best way that i've ever been able to express myself. i've played many games in my life, and to all the people who have come and watched; i remember every single one of you. it's honestly the most considerate thing you could do for me is to come and watch me play baseball. along with playing ball one day. i want to help jorge' grow purmotion and train elite athletes. i look forward to the opportunity of giving that baseball will provide me. in the end i want to develop a training HQ in the dominican republic for baseball. we will be sponsored and require no money. we will develop baseball players for the passion of the game and nothing else! LOYALTY will be a theme with every thing that i'm around. i want to communicate in 2010 that dreams are essential to life. whatever it is that you want, GO! live in the moment and stay positive. have a goal, and never waiver. your time will come. my time is arriving. it's exciting. i cannot wait to share it with the people close to me. i cannot wait to share it with the world. open your mind, open your heart, smile and allow jah and love to inspire you. coexist in harmony with every thing around you. if you get lost just get back to mother nature. she will ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF YOU. in these times, futures times, and all times just keep livin, bear

i'm coming back to stay...

i'd like to start this blog out with a dedication. this blog is dedicated to my boy MUNGER. congratulations to DM for graduating this past weekend from auburn in geography. i very much look forward to what comes next for this guy. i consider him a great friend, a better person, and someone who i learn from. he'll always be around me.


i've realized that this is MY TIME. the baseball field is my home. i'm ready to show the world what i can do. don't worry i won't be hard to find. it's all about working hard, living in the now, and making every thing positive. i heard roy jones jr. say in and interview once, he was asked why he is still fighting as old as he is getting. he said, "after my life, when i get where i'm going, i want to be able to tell my maker that i've used all he gave me." so to all the people out there. live your dreams, dream as big as makes you happy. then start your feet and get there. i'm so blessed just to be able to play the game. i'm ready.

2 days in the books...

2 AM sessions with jorge bonnet. he's the mad scientist. i just go to his lab and do what he says. for once in my life i've been given bullets for my gun, and i'm a good fucking shot. i'm able to see now that the limit is the sky. can't wait to continue to put the work in with jorge. i should be ready by march.

on another note. i started therapy 3 weeks ago for my hip mobility or lack thereof. i started with internal/external rotation at 19 degrees in both hips. rotational athletes (baseball) require 40-45 degrees. i gained 23-24 degrees and am in b/w 39-43 degrees in both hips. only took 3 weeks of dedication and hard work. the type of dedication you've never seen before, and the type that goes down in history. i'll leave you with this....

2. A person having great power; an autocrat: "the square-jawed, ruddy complacency of Jack Farrell, the czar of the Fifteenth Street police station" (Ernest Hemingway).
3. Informal An appointed official having special powers to regulate or supervise an activity: a racetrack czar; an energy czar.)in a supposed free America? This guy wants to depopulate the world by 80%. haha what a loser.

better late than never..

colorado is truly hard to beat. the state cannot be described with words. living here at 7500 feet has changed my entire body composition. it's crazy how far i've come since the first day i was here. on monday, i worked with the volunteer group called the "road hogs." these "hogs" are men and women from 45-?. older people to say the least. my first encounter with them was early on in my stay at RMNP. we all gathered and were getting our instructions. when the hogs heard that they weren't going to be using their chainsaws, they all whined like little children who cant get ice cream. it was hilarious. there is this 6'6 retired rocket scientist, ray. he's like a bull in a china shop. i can't believe they let him drive the dump trucks. he always wears a shit eating grin and he was more bummed about not chainsawing. i really thought he was going to cry. working with the hogs is truly a riot. so on monday i was carting around a hog named janice. she's from new jersey, but not the city; as she would say. she's from a small town of only 1200. now she lives in a small town here in colorado. she asked me what my life would be like when i got back to auburn. i told her i wanted to play baseball. this jived with her b/c she loves baseball. she told me, "that's just great. if you have a dream, you have to follow it." she later went on to tell me, "you are just capable of anything bear." that is one of the most wonderful compliments i've ever heard. janice is such a joy to be around. a true blessing for me. so that brings me to my dream. i don't know if i'm completely screwy or just true to myself. but i want to be the best baseball player who's ever lived. it's been my dream since i started dreaming. i believe that it's what i was put here to do. in fact, i know that. i'm not someone who's wired to not do my passion. it's like baseball chases me as much as i chase it. i'm an incredibly blessed person. my journey from my last baseball game in high school, to right here training my ass off in colorado, has been incredible. i've done everything from air-conditioning work, washing 55 gallon barrels in a sweat shop, sitting in a parking booth at a ski resort, to riding a lawn mower, and now working on the road at a national park. all of that has brought me back to my passion. one day it hit me that i gotta stop screwing around and do this. i was blessed to have surgery at andrews sports medicine in birmingham. my shoulder is better than ever. i feel better than ever. i have an arsenal around me from the people i train with to my chiropractor. i'm becoming better and learning every single day. so to all the haters out there, i have abs. i feel like a dirtbag again. and there's going to be nothing better than tripling in the right field gap off you. can you hear me? i'm coming.

my office for the summer.....

i'm working at rocky mtn national park on the rock wall crew. we are building a rock wall around "rainbow curve" so people don't run off the road and kill themselves. that's the view from rainbow curve. since i've been in the state of colorado i've seen antelope, marmot, mule deer, elk, bighorn sheep, and a moose. no bears yet. i seen mule deer and elk on my way to work every morning. they look at me weird b/c i talk their language. thanks will primos. i do work for the gov't in EVERY sense of the word. it's ok my friend clinton honed my bullshitt'n skills. i work with a 60 year old lady who had acl surgery 13 weeks ago. i met her when she was only 9 weeks out and i thought she was the healthiest 60 year old i'd ever seen. i still can't believe she is so far along and only 13 weeks out. it's amazing. in the latest mens health birmingham is in the top 10 most cancerous cities and aroura, co is in the top 10 for least cancerous. it's amazing how fit and active people are out here. if you go to the whole foods in boulder on sunday at 6:30 pm or monday at 9:45 am you can't find a parking place. i love that. i walk to work, i pack my lunch, i drive my car once a week, my window is open all the time and people here don't even have air conditioning. and i'm not talking about in the ghetto i'm talking about $350,000 houses that don't have air b/c they don't need it. just a good damn heater. i can't walk 5 mins and breathe. altitude is tough.

i'm not digging what's going on in the world. i don't like our reaching foreign policy. read "american way of war," by: eugene jarecki. i hate the bailout. if you want to know what's going on in the world go to infowars.com or prisonplanet.tv yea it might sound ludacris at first, but so does the fact that people pay income tax and it's no where in the constitution. and the fact that when you go to court you aren't ruled under civil law, you are ruled under maritime admiralty law. just google jordan maxwell. war alex jones, the truth will not be stopped.

i've got the energy to train like a mad man with marv marinovich. until next time, nachos and wine. peace

ps. twitter.com/lancearmstrong and see how a mad man trains up in aspen. i believe he will win 8.

AROD again

i'm so freaking pissed about the whole arod ordeal in the news again today. what's gay is that the original test was supposed to be anonymous. so in the first place, arod even being mentioned is a breach of his confidentiality. this story needs to be dropped. it doesn't matter if arod did steroids in high school or what side effects his teammates saw. this dude is the highest paid baseball player ever. of course he is going to have people who are going to rat on him and try and "get at him." i don't understand why congress is involved in this either. they need to use that money for more useful tasks. if you can't catch these dudes in the act of doing the illegal act, just let it go. the gov't has had to raid these different pharmaceutical companies just to get evidence (after the fact).

bj penn is training with marv marinovich at sportslab in california. >i'm going out there in september. i've been on the cutting edge of fitness for about 1 1/2 now.
i saw citizen cope live last night in auburn. he only played 7 songs, but he was UNBELIEVABLE. his voice is amazing live and he just jams. i'll prob. go see him in telluride in june. jam to this.



i threw today and felt 98%. i had great velocity and accuracy to be at 17 weeks and change. i couldn't be happier with my shoulder right now. i hope it continues to heal well.

i've been doing my trial run at flip this house here at the trailer. here is a shot of the new den.

mind body soul

my chiropractor is dr. hurst peacock. the freaking man. he is an integral part of me being an athlete. here is his website. anyway, he gave me an autobiography to read about thurman fleet. i believe that thurman came up with the "zone" concept, but he also developed something called concept therapy. you can google him if he interests you. the biggest piece i took from the book was the care that thurman paid to the mind, the body, and the soul. i've begun to implement that in my life. sometimes i get too one sided whether it be too much body, or too much soul, etc.

this is a great song. the video sucks. it's crazy how talented some of these kids are. miley cyrus, jonas brothers, taylor swift, solja boy, jesse mcartney. crazy. i love the lyrics to this song, and it rings true in my life every day. i haven't heard a song this good lyrically in a long time. songs have always made me feel an emotion. i can't really explain what this song does for me, but i'll say this. i've been feeling this coming for a little bit. i love when stuff like that happens.

i feel like telling a story. this particular story came to me the other day as i was driving down the road. i was 13. i was playing in an all star tournament at shades mtn. park. i was wearing #7, playing shortstop. i have to share a secret at this point. ever since i can remember, i have been able to tell if a batter was going to hit a ball at me on the ground. some guys just had a swing that i could tell the way they angled that they were going to hit it at me. this particular batter had this 'stance'. there was a runner on first. he hit the ball and to this day, all i remember is seeing the ball down and reaching to my right. then the crowd went wild. i've tried for 9 years now to remember how i fielded the ball, how i threw it to second base. i can't. it was all instincts. that was the first time in my life i actually was aware of my instincts. i guess that was the first step in me honing my instincts to where they are today. test your instincts. if they pass, BELIEVE in them. they're all you got. and on top of that, hone them all the time, b/c you have to stay sharp!

i did this for my boy chuck liddell. i love chuck. this is my tribute. he is my favorite fighter, but he is now retired. so i've been walking around like this for a couple days. it's rather odd.

next wednesday in auburn ben harper is playing with citizen cope, for free. ya digg?

gladware, pictures, quote of the day, and much more

whenever i try and start a blog, it takes me a little time to catch my stride. on friday i ran 4 miles. on saturday i threw. on sunday i worked out. on monday i swam. today i worked out, not really. haha. after i warmed up, i could have gone home. i just felt tired and weak. i decided to shorten things up and still get something in. i decided to do assisted pull ups and dips, along with some other exercises. i had to wait on these two skinny girls who were using this machine. come to find out, they were using the same weight as me. i was working out right beside the machine and one of the girls walked up. she looked at the pin, looked at me, looked at the pin, and looked confused. it was a great laugh for the day. tomorrow i HAVE to take a day off. i hate it. o well. i bout 2 and 1/2 dozen eggs today for $2.00. clutch! what else is clutch is the 20 pound bag of epsom salt bath soak i bought from san francisco bath salt company. i think i am going to hit up two of those baths tomorrow. recovery, recovery, speaking of that, this is how i sit, not feeling too hot today. have to have some peach detox tea.

on to the quiz:

the answer is that britney, justin, and christina were all in the mickey mouse club together.

just read this. found it on digg.com
from there, i clicked on the daily beast dot com and came across this. i was curious about the one thing. at-least one of those couples that i saw was engaged. which one of the dudes wears the ring? how the hell do you figure that out? that's all. o and this, "mark jacobs aviators and the v neck." haha

i guess if you are going to eat pizza, have veges on it

RELENTLESS.

ouch

another monday

riesling is more of an experience for me than red wine. interesting. please don't accuse me of bui. blogging under the influence. haha. if you know me, you know that most of the time i can be found in a song. i can always be found in some form or the other in rascal flatt's "these days." speaking of my boys there new album came out today (7th). lately these quotes have been resounding in my head.

"Lost and insecure, You found me, you found me, Lying on the floor, Surrounded, surrounded, Why’d you have to wait? Where were you, where were you? Just a little late
You found me, You found me. In the end. Everyone ends up alone. Losing her, The only one who’s ever known, Who I am, Who I’m not, and who I want to be, No way to know. How long she will be next to me." - the fray

"You can tell me all your thoughts, about the stars that fill polluted skies. And show me where you run to, when no one's left to take your side. But don't tell me where the road ends, cause I just don't wanna know, No I don't wanna know." - thriving ivory

these lyrics are just too good.

i had to shut down my throwing program for a week. i felt good the first day i threw. the 2 other days i haven't felt good. i have just felt really weak. i have to do a lot of light weight and band exercises with my shoulders. it just feels that i can't do that and throw right now. i'll throw this weekend and see how things feel. following celebrities on twitter is rather interesting. i saw the new world order mentioned in the news on friday for the first time. i believe the first time it was in the news was when bush's dad said it in one of his addresses'. it falls in line with the plans of the Illuminati. if you don't believe in them then they are fixing to put themselves int he spotlight with this. i have to get to bed, but a quiz for the night. in the next video there are 4 people present. 3 of them are related in some way. if you know the answer, then answer.

goodnight.

p.s. when you came over after my surgery, you brought ice cream. you said, "i didn't want to come and not bring anything." what you didn't know was that you brought something, YOU! and i'm forever grateful. you know how much that day meant to me. xo

i don't even know where to start...

i've always wondered how open to be on here. i'm not the most open person to walk the earth. it just takes trust and loyalty for me to tell people things and i've found those two qualities rare these days. for the past 6 months my life has been in despair. i've had a hard time every single day. i'm being "pulled" out of auburn by my parents. it seems they've always been pulling me out of something just to put me somewhere else. i'm tired of being embarrassed about decisions i have to live with that other people make. so i'm going to take this one solo. i've set before myself nearly the hardest goal i could imagine. i'm trying to come back after labrum surgery and four years off, and play professional baseball. this is like mount everest for me. it's like the hardest task i could set before myself, and yet it's still my dream. it's tough to set out and be on this journey with no support. there's times when it would be nice to be able to have someone pat you on the back and be there for you. since high school i've learned so much about myself. one thing i've learned is that i perform the best operating under pressure. especially when i have the pressure of the highest goal i can think of. along the way i hope that i meet people who think like me and people who don't. i hope to meet open minded, kind hearted people as well. this is the toughest time in my life. it's forcing me to learn to be positive. what i've learned through this is that the soul has to be pursuing a passion. i'm not wired to be put through this course and that ringer and into a certain position to be successful. i have to have a dream that is playing in my head 24/7. the same dream that i've seen ever since i took my first breath. it's the reason i was put on the earth. in the end i hope that i'm understood and i hope that just one person's passion is sparked with how i play the game.

"But at nighttime, when there was nothing to do, and the house was all empty, I'd always think of Jenny." -Forrest Gump

p.s. you know bob marley believed that you could cure racism by injecting love and music into people's lives.

misunderstood

Uh, misunderstood ain't gotta be explained
But you don't understand me so let me explain (heh heh)
Stood in the heat, the flames, the snow
Please slow down hurricane
The wind blow, my dreads swing

He had hair like wool, like Wayne (huh)
Dropping ashes in the bible
I shake em out and they fall on the rifle
Scary, hail Mary no tale fairy
All real very, extraordinary
Perry Mason facing, the barrel if he tattle
My god is my judge, no gown no gavel
Uh, I'm a rebel, time to battle
Now or never, I would never, in the ever
Fucking fantastic, fuck if you agree
I'm bright but I don't give a fuck if you see me


I'm just a soul whose intentions are good
Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood



Uh, what's understood ain't gotta be explained
So for those who understand meet Tha Wayne
For eight and a half months I gave Ms. Cita pain
Now it's Young Money baby, keep the change
My momma say fuck 'em, and we the same
So hello motherfucker you got some sheets to change
And ain't it funny how people change like Easter Sunday
You know church fit them outfit
Bright pink and green chest look house lit
Bright pinky rings but that ain't about this
What you about bitch?
Excuse my French emotion in my passion
But I wear my heart on my sleeve like it's the new fashion
What are you asking, if I don't have the answer
It's probably on the web, like I'm a damn tarantula

i want to be the best

i worked my upper body out today for the first time in 9 weeks. this weekend i could feel my body telling me to get things going. i felt this same way around the time i was supposed to take my sling off. it's crazy how your body will literally "talk" to you, if you know how to listen. i've never been more excited or motivated in my life. i want to be the best baseball player in the world. that thought has consumed my every thought. it's now my life. ever since i decided to have surgery and begin a comeback, i haven't wanted to be unreasonable. to play in the major leagues is a dream of mine. it's been this way ever since my first memory. what i don't understand is why you have to peak at 17-18 years old. i didn't peak at that time in my life. hell, i didn't hit puberty until sophomore year of high school. how was i supposed to peak physically 2 years after hitting puberty? i've gained prob an inch in height and 15 pounds in weight. my muscles are more mature and my knowledge of training is vast. i've stayed in shape for the past 4 years, and my competitive nature is still burning inside. so i'm committing myself to achieving my dream. the dr. asked me yesterday what my objective in rehab was. i told him, "to sling a baseball." i've experienced what tiger discussed last week in his return. tiger talked about having stability in his swing. after having his left knee reconstructed he said he forgot how good it felt to have a normal knee. i had that same experience on tuesday. i was doing 45 degree front raises with 2 pound weights. this puts a ton of strain on the labrum. i could feel my right shoulder staying in place and not slipping. it was an amazing feeling to have confidence back in my shoulder. before i hurt my shoulder in high school, my arm was invincible. once i was warm, i could sling it however long i wanted. that's the kind of recovery i'm going for.

i hope that arod has surgery on his hip. he tore his labrum in his hip. i'm confused as to how he didn't go see the dr. in the off season. i'm not one to throw around blame, but it doesn't look like he was focused. i hope he can get better without surgery, but i don't think so. his injury is a wear and tear injury. he's been swinging with his hips nearly his whole life. he needs to be out 3-4 months and not have to worry about it again for the rest of his career. that's my two cents, but i'm not a dr. i guess the bright side is that he is seeing a dr. in vail, CO. that's not a bad place to be.

There's a big ufc card this weekend. I have rampage knocking jardine out. I have gabriel gonzaga beating shane carwin.

eggs, bacon, potatoes w/ onions tomorrow for b'fast club. gnight

9 weeks hah...

I was watching HGtv in HD the other night and this guy goes, "i love it when a plan comes together." One of the biggest lessons i've learned in college is how important having a plan a, b, and c are. I had surgery 64 days ago. I didn't really have a plan for recovery. I heard so many different time frames that I didn't know what to think? I returned to the doctor today and got cleared to lift light weights. I start a throwing program in 3 weeks. I never been more ready for something in my life! That feels really good to say b/c i've been longing for that feeling and I'm so glad i'm there. I still can't believe it only took 9 weeks. If you have any orthopedic issues call Ella at Dr. Cain's office 205 939 3699. If you are in birmingham call Carden at Physiotherapy Associates on 280 by Cowboys. She's the real deal, 205 408 0700.

I'm drinking orange juice plotting my return. I feel like i'm unleashing a beast. Tomorrow morning i have b'fast club. I'm glad Manny Ramirez signed. I really don't know why it took so long? I have a feeling he is going to go crazy like he did at the end of last year. I haven't done my research on whether the dodgers are contenders? If they aren't, then I know Manny wanted to go to a contender. he doesn't get a lot of respect b/c he keeps to himself and doesn't think that baseball is the end of the world. For some reason people judge him for that in a negative light. I think that keeps him off the "big" teams. If the yankees signed Manny, weezy f was going to make a new single about how much he hated Manny as a yankee. word. Where were the braves? Talk about someone to protect my man chipper. Poor Andre Smith. idiot. All that money being given to you and you screw it up. He didn't even come in shape. Unbelievable. Just shows that hard work can go further than even crazy good talent. My boy Joe Rogan is filming a live spike tv comedy special tomorrow night in Columbus, Ohio. I would love to be in Columbus right now. The arnold classic is going on right now. That's a bodybuilding show along with all of the sponsors. Plus Quinton Jackson is going to whoop Keith Jardine's ass. Can't wait to see Jackson vs. Evans. Shit, the ufc is crazy right now. It's been crazy for 3 months and it keeps getting crazier. Before that it's just been building up to this craziness.

I'm fed up with all the crap about arod and steroids. You can't go back and punish people for things that got away with doing. It's absurd that his confidentiality was breached and no one mentions that. And they are raiding labs, stealing urine, just to find out what these athletes are on. Thomas Arnold created "the clear." What makes people think that steroids are just going to stop? By they, I mean congress. It's absurd that congress is spending money on steroids in baseball.

Hopefully this blog deal will be more frequent.

New Hampshire sends a warning to the federal government

February 4th, 2009 Posted By Pat Dollard.

The New Hampshire state legislature took an unbelievably bold step Monday by introducing a resolution to declare certain actions by the federal government to completely totally void and warning that certain future acts will be viewed as a “breach of peace” with the states themselves that risks “nullifying the Constitution.”
This act by New Hampshire is a clear warning to the federal government that they could face being stripped of their power by the States (presumably through civil war!
The remarkable document outlines with perfect clarity, some basics long forgotten. For instance, it reminds Congress “That the Constitution of the United States, having delegated to Congress a power to punish treason, counterfeiting the securities and current coin of the United States, piracies, and felonies committed on the high seas, and offences against the law of nations, slavery, and no other crimes whatsoever;. . . . . therefore all acts of Congress which assume to create, define, or punish crimes, other than those so enumerated in the Constitution are altogether void, and of no force;”
Federal gun crime laws? Void. Federal drug crime laws? Void. The gazzillion other federal criminal laws that deal with anything other than the specific enumerated crimes? ALL VOID.
One would think that if any lawyer anywhere in the entire country was worth his salt, all federal criminal trials would have ended years ago. This seems to prove that most lawyers are dullards.
New Hampshire deals a complete death blow to the pending federal hate crimes legislation by pointing out “That, therefore, all acts of Congress of the United States which do abridge the freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, are not law, but are altogether void, and of no force; . . . . .”
Later in the Resolution, New Hampshire makes clear what the feds are now risking if they proceed further: The removal of all powers from the federal government by the States!
Quoting directly from the Resolution: “That any Act by the Congress of the United States, Executive Order of the President of the United States of America or Judicial Order by the Judicatories of the United States of America which assumes a power not delegated to the government of United States of America by the Constitution for the United States of America and which serves to diminish the liberty of the any of the several States or their citizens shall constitute a nullification of the Constitution for the United States of America by the government of the United States of America. Acts which would cause such a nullification include, but are not limited to:
I. Establishing martial law or a state of emergency within one of the States comprising the United States of America without the consent of the legislature of that State.
II. Requiring involuntary servitude, or governmental service other than a draft during a declared war, or pursuant to, or as an alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.
III. Requiring involuntary servitude or governmental service of persons under the age of 18 other than pursuant to, or as an alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.
IV. Surrendering any power delegated or not delegated to any corporation or foreign government.
V. Any act regarding religion; further limitations on freedom of political speech; or further limitations on freedom of the press.
VI. Further infringements on the right to keep and bear arms including prohibitions of type or quantity of arms or ammunition; and
That should any such act of Congress become law or Executive Order or Judicial Order be put into force, all powers previously delegated to the United States of America by the Constitution for the United States shall revert to the several States individually.”
I have reported on this blog for quite some time that we here in the United States are heading toward Civil War. Many of you told me I was a nut for thinking that.
The simple fact is that we are long overdue for another Rebellion in this nation and I heartily endorse the idea of having one again very soon; preferably starting THIS year!
We must stop our federal government dead in its tracks because it is out of control and very dangerous. If stopping them means attacking them and destroying them by force, then so be it.

STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Nine
A RESOLUTION affirming States’ rights based on Jeffersonian principles.
Whereas the Constitution of the State of New Hampshire, Part 1, Article 7 declares that the people of this State have the sole and exclusive right of governing themselves as a free, sovereign, and independent State; and do, and forever hereafter shall, exercise and enjoy every power, jurisdiction, and right, pertaining thereto, which is not, or may not hereafter be, by them expressly delegated to the United States of America in congress assembled; and
Whereas the Constitution of the State of New Hampshire, Part 2, Article 1 declares that the people inhabiting the territory formerly called the province of New Hampshire, do hereby solemnly and mutually agree with each other, to form themselves into a free, sovereign and independent body-politic, or State, by the name of The State of New Hampshire; and
Whereas the State of New Hampshire when ratifying the Constitution for the United States of America recommended as a change, “First That it be Explicitly declared that all Powers not expressly & particularly Delegated by the aforesaid are reserved to the several States to be, by them Exercised;” and
Whereas the other States that included recommendations, to wit Massachusetts, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island and Virginia, included an identical or similar recommended change; and
Whereas these recommended changes were incorporated as the ninth amendment, the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people, and the tenth amendment, the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people, to the Constitution for the United States of America; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring:
That the several States composing the United States of America, are not united on the principle of unlimited submission to their General Government; but that, by a compact under the style and title of a Constitution for the United States, and of amendments thereto, they constituted a General Government for special purposes, — delegated to that government certain definite powers, reserving, each State to itself, the residuary mass of right to their own self-government; and that whensoever the General Government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force; that to this compact each State acceded as a State, and is an integral party, its co-States forming, as to itself, the other party: that the government created by this compact was not made the exclusive or final judge of the extent of the powers delegated to itself; since that would have made its discretion, and not the Constitution, the measure of its powers; but that, as in all other cases of compact among powers having no common judge, each party has an equal right to judge for itself, as well of infractions as of the mode and measure of redress; and
That the Constitution of the United States, having delegated to Congress a power to punish treason, counterfeiting the securities and current coin of the United States, piracies, and felonies committed on the high seas, and offences against the law of nations, slavery, and no other crimes whatsoever; and it being true as a general principle, and one of the amendments to the Constitution having also declared, that “the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people,” therefore all acts of Congress which assume to create, define, or punish crimes, other than those so enumerated in the Constitution are altogether void, and of no force; and that the power to create, define, and punish such other crimes is reserved, and, of right, appertains solely and exclusively to the respective States, each within its own territory; and
That it is true as a general principle, and is also expressly declared by one of the amendments to the Constitution, that “the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people;” and that no power over the freedom of religion, freedom of speech, or freedom of the press being delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, all lawful powers respecting the same did of right remain, and were reserved to the States or the people: that thus was manifested their determination to retain to themselves the right of judging how far the licentiousness of speech and of the press may be abridged without lessening their useful freedom, and how far those abuses which cannot be separated from their use should be tolerated, rather than the use be destroyed. And thus also they guarded against all abridgment by the United States of the freedom of religious opinions and exercises, and retained to themselves the right of protecting the same. And that in addition to this general principle and express declaration, another and more special provision has been made by one of the amendments to the Constitution, which expressly declares, that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press:” thereby guarding in the same sentence, and under the same words, the freedom of religion, of speech, and of the press: insomuch, that whatever violated either, throws down the sanctuary which covers the others, and that libels, falsehood, and defamation, equally with heresy and false religion, are withheld from the cognizance of federal tribunals. That, therefore, all acts of Congress of the United States which do abridge the freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, are not law, but are altogether void, and of no force; and
That the construction applied by the General Government (as is evidenced by sundry of their proceedings) to those parts of the Constitution of the United States which delegate to Congress a power “to lay and collect taxes, duties, imports, and excises, to pay the debts, and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States,” and “to make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the powers vested by the Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof,” goes to the destruction of all limits prescribed to their power by the Constitution: that words meant by the instrument to be subsidiary only to the execution of limited powers, ought not to be so construed as themselves to give unlimited powers, nor a part to be so taken as to destroy the whole residue of that instrument: that the proceedings of the General Government under color of these articles, will be a fit and necessary subject of revisal and correction; and
That a committee of conference and correspondence be appointed, which shall have as its charge to communicate the preceding resolutions to the Legislatures of the several States; to assure them that this State continues in the same esteem of their friendship and union which it has manifested from that moment at which a common danger first suggested a common union: that it considers union, for specified national purposes, and particularly to those specified in their federal compact, to be friendly to the peace, happiness and prosperity of all the States: that faithful to that compact, according to the plain intent and meaning in which it was understood and acceded to by the several parties, it is sincerely anxious for its preservation: that it does also believe, that to take from the States all the powers of self-government and transfer them to a general and consolidated government, without regard to the special delegations and reservations solemnly agreed to in that compact, is not for the peace, happiness or prosperity of these States; and that therefore this State is determined, as it doubts not its co-States are, to submit to undelegated, and consequently unlimited powers in no man, or body of men on earth: that in cases of an abuse of the delegated powers, the members of the General Government, being chosen by the people, a change by the people would be the constitutional remedy; but, where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy: that every State has a natural right in cases not within the compact, (casus non foederis), to nullify of their own authority all assumptions of power by others within their limits: that without this right, they would be under the dominion, absolute and unlimited, of whosoever might exercise this right of judgment for them: that nevertheless, this State, from motives of regard and respect for its co-States, has wished to communicate with them on the subject: that with them alone it is proper to communicate, they alone being parties to the compact, and solely authorized to judge in the last resort of the powers exercised under it, Congress being not a party, but merely the creature of the compact, and subject as to its assumptions of power to the final judgment of those by whom, and for whose use itself and its powers were all created and modified: that if the acts before specified should stand, these conclusions would flow from them: that it would be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights: that confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism — free government is founded in jealousy, and not in confidence; it is jealousy and not confidence which prescribes limited constitutions, to bind down those whom we are obliged to trust with power: that our Constitution has accordingly fixed the limits to which, and no further, our confidence may go. In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution. That this State does therefore call on its co-States for an expression of their sentiments on acts not authorized by the federal compact. And it doubts not that their sense will be so announced as to prove their attachment unaltered to limited government, whether general or particular. And that the rights and liberties of their co-States will be exposed to no dangers by remaining embarked in a common bottom with their own. That they will concur with this State in considering acts as so palpably against the Constitution as to amount to an undisguised declaration that that compact is not meant to be the measure of the powers of the General Government, but that it will proceed in the exercise over these States, of all powers whatsoever: that they will view this as seizing the rights of the States, and consolidating them in the hands of the General Government, with a power assumed to bind the States, not merely as the cases made federal, (casus foederis,) but in all cases whatsoever, by laws made, not with their consent, but by others against their consent: that this would be to surrender the form of government we have chosen, and live under one deriving its powers from its own will, and not from our authority; and that the co-States, recurring to their natural right in cases not made federal, will concur in declaring these acts void, and of no force, and will each take measures of its own for providing that neither these acts, nor any others of the General Government not plainly and intentionally authorized by the Constitution, shall be exercised within their respective territories; and
That the said committee be authorized to communicate by writing or personal conferences, at any times or places whatever, with any person or person who may be appointed by any one or more co-States to correspond or confer with them; and that they lay their proceedings before the next session of the General Court; and
That any Act by the Congress of the United States, Executive Order of the President of the United States of America or Judicial Order by the Judicatories of the United States of America which assumes a power not delegated to the government of United States of America by the Constitution for the United States of America and which serves to diminish the liberty of the any of the several States or their citizens shall constitute a nullification of the Constitution for the United States of America by the government of the United States of America. Acts which would cause such a nullification include, but are not limited to:
I. Establishing martial law or a state of emergency within one of the States comprising the United States of America without the consent of the legislature of that State.
II. Requiring involuntary servitude, or governmental service other than a draft during a declared war, or pursuant to, or as an alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.
III. Requiring involuntary servitude or governmental service of persons under the age of 18 other than pursuant to, or as an alternative to, incarceration after due process of law.
IV. Surrendering any power delegated or not delegated to any corporation or foreign government.
V. Any act regarding religion; further limitations on freedom of political speech; or further limitations on freedom of the press.
VI. Further infringements on the right to keep and bear arms including prohibitions of type or quantity of arms or ammunition; and
That should any such act of Congress become law or Executive Order or Judicial Order be put into force, all powers previously delegated to the United States of America by the Constitution for the United States shall revert to the several States individually. Any future government of the United States of America shall require ratification of three quarters of the States seeking to form a government of the United States of America and shall not be binding upon any State not seeking to form such a government; and
That copies of this resolution be transmitted by the house clerk to the President of the United States, each member of the United States Congress, and the presiding officers of each State’s legislature.

Shaun Palmer

In this edition of "Outside," there's an article on Shaun Palmer. He's the original snowboarding bad boy. He's one of the big reasons that extreme sports have come as far as they have. Next year at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, he's trying to win gold in Snowboarder X. It's a great article. This is my favorite excerpt. "The blue eyes stare me down. "I still got a temper, " he says. "Sometimes it's controllable, sometimes it's not. My heart's pumping to win, hon. You know, people say you need to learn how to lose, but I've always been scared of that, because if you learn how to lose, you're never going to care about winning enough to win. I'd rather win it. All of it." http://www.stephanieannpearson.com/portfolio.html
