The Boys Scouts of America was incorporated FEBRUARY 8, 1910
Sir Robert Baden-Powell began the movement in England two years prior. A hero of the South African Boer Wars, Sir Baden-Powell's troops were besieged 200 days by an overwhelming army, but his resourcefulness saved his men.
The Boy Scouts are now the largest voluntary youth movement in the world, with membership over 25 million. In the pamphlet Scouting & Christianity, 1917, Baden-Powell wrote: "Scouting is nothing less than applied Christianity." The Scout Oath states: "On my honor, I will do my best: To do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout Law, To help other people at all times. To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight."
In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge addressed a gathering of Boy Scouts in New York: "The three fundamentals of scouthood are reverence for nature...reverence for law...and reverence for God. It is hard to see how a great man can be an atheist. Doubters do not achieve." President Coolidge concluded: "No man realizes his full possibilities unless he has the deep conviction that life is eternally important, and that his work, well done, is part of an unending plan."

It's not who you know, it's what you know
On recommendation of an informal mentor, I have just started reading Strategic Acceleration: Succeed at the Speed of Life
. I'd told him I really didn't want to read yet another self-help, motivational type of book, but he went out of his way to convince me.
Well, right from the start Tony Jeary talks about clarity and how the things you believe impact your results and that there is great value in changing our 'strategic' beliefs when necessary.
Days later, after trying out Daily Inspirations - from Christianity.com - I saw this and it does reinforce the idea that we can get too comfortable with unexamined beliefs that work to our disadvantage:
Cracks in the Wall
by Charles R. Swindoll
Matthew 15:1-9; Mark 7:1-13; Colossians 2:8-23
The longer I live the less I know for sure.
That sounds like 50% heresy . . . but it's 100% honesty. In my younger years I had a lot more answers than I do now. Things were absolutely black and white, right or wrong, yes or no, in or out, but a lot of that is beginning to change. The more I travel and read and wrestle and think the less simplistic things seem.
I now find myself uncomfortable with sweeping generalities . . . with neat little categories and well-defined classifications.
Take people, for example. They cannot be squeezed into pigeon holes. People and situations are far more complex than most of us are willing to admit.
• Not all Episcopalians are liberal.
• Not all athletes are thickheaded.
• Not all Republicans are Christian good guys.
• Not all collegians are rebels.
• Not all artists are kooks.
• Not all movies are questionable.
• Not all questions are answerable.
• Not all verses are clear.
• Not all problems are easily solved.
• Not all deaths are explainable.
Maybe the list comes as a jolt. Great! Jolts are fine if they make you think. We evangelicals are good at building rigid walls out of dogmatic stones . . . cemented together by the mortar of tradition.
We erect these walls in systematic circles—then place within each our over-simplified, ultra-inflexible "position." Within each fortress we build human machines that are programmed not to think but to say the "right" things and respond the "right" way at any given moment. Our self-concept remains undisturbed and secure since no challenging force is ever allowed over the walls. Occasionally, however, a strange thing happens—a little restlessness springs up within the walls. A few ideas are challenged. Questions are entertained. Alternative options are then released. Talk about threat! Suddenly our superprotected, cliché-ridden answers don't cut it. Our over-simplified package offers no solution. The stones start to shift as the mortar cracks.
Two common reactions are available to us. One: We can maintain the status quo "position" and patch the wall by resisting change with rigidity. Two: We can openly admit "I do not know," as the wall crumbles. Then we can do some new thinking by facing the facts as they actually are. The first approach is the most popular. We are masters at rationalizing around our inflexible behavior. We imply that change always represents a departure from the truth of Scripture.
Now some changes do pull us away from Scripture. They must definitely be avoided. But let's be absolutely certain that we are standing on scriptural rock, not traditional sand. We have a changeless message—Jesus Christ—but He must be proclaimed in a changing, challenging era. Such calls for a breakdown of stone walls and breakthrough of fresh, keen thinking based on scriptural insights. No longer can we offer tired, trite statements that are as stiff and tasteless as last year's gum beneath the pew. The thinking person deserves an intelligent, sensible answer. He is weary of oversimplified bromides mouthed by insensitive robots within the walls.
Perhaps by now my words sound closer to 90% heresy. All I ask is that you examineyour life. Socrates once said,
The unexamined life is not worth living.
If you've stopped thinking and started going through unexamined motions, you've really stopped living and started existing.
That kind of "life" isn't much fun, nor very rewarding. I'd call it about 100% heresy . . . and only 50% honesty.

Palin 'Would Be Willing' to Take On Obama in 2012
Sarah Palin has President Obama in her sights, telling FoxNews.com she "would be willing" to challenge him in the 2012 presidential race.Read more
The former Alaska governor, in an interview Saturday on the sidelines of the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, said President Obama's "lack of experience" has held him back his first year in office and that she would put her credentials up against his any day.
"I would be willing to if I believe that it's right for the country," Palin said when asked if she would run for president in 2012.
She qualified the statement, adding that she sees "many" other potential candidates who are "in as strong or stronger position than I am to take on the White House and if they're in a better position than I in three years, I'll support them."
But the former GOP vice presidential nominee told "Fox News Sunday": "I won't close the door that perhaps could be open for me in the future."

February 7: Frederick Douglass
Frederick Baily was born FEBRUARY 7, 1817. Though against the law for a slave, he learned to read. At age 20, he escaped to Massachusetts and changed his name to Frederick Douglass to hide from slave catchers.
He began debating, developing oratory skills and exposing the injustices of slavery. William Lloyd Garrison hired him to sell subscriptions to The Liberator Newspaper. Frederick Douglass published his best-selling autobiography, but with his identity now known, he had to flee to England to avoid slave-catchers.
He was enthusiastically received and met with reformer Daniel O'Connell. English friends raised money to buy his freedom and he returned to New York, founding the North Star Newspaper. Writing for abolition and women's suffrage, his motto was "Right is of no sex-Truth is of no color-God is the Father of us all, and we are all Brethren."
An advisor to President Lincoln, Frederick Douglass told the story of his conversion: "I loved all mankind, slaveholder not excepted, though I abhorred slavery more than ever. I saw the world in a new light...I gathered scattered pages of the Bible from the filthy street gutters, and washed and dried them, that...I might get a word or two of wisdom from them."

Social Security Goes into the Red in 2010 not 2018
by Dick McDonald - Ownership Society Institute
In 2010 the Congressional Budget Office has projected a $92 billion surplus of payroll tax receipts over Social Security benefits paid. That figure includes $120 billion in “non-cash” receipts of fictional interest paid on fictional US Bonds – a bookkeeping trick like Enron used to cover up Congress’s theft of over $4 trillion of excess payroll tax receipts it has been appropriating from Social Security since the early 80’s. See here.
http://finance.yahoo.com/focus-retirement/article/108747/next-in-line-for-a-bailout-social-security?mod=fidelity-readytoretire
That means that by September, 2010 the US Government will need a $28 billion cash infusion just to meet its Social Security obligations. So much for the age-old denial that Social Security isn’t broke. That it has unfulfilled promises of over $14 trillion in future benefits in excess of projected receipts. Similarly Medicare is in the tank for $93 trillion. The jig is up and the Democrats and RINOs have no where to go on this issue.
The real benefit to be gleaned from this is that Americans will seriously try to solve this problem by any means other than raising taxes and/or cutting benefits. Believe me Americans will insist on it. The baby boomers will demand their full benefits as they come on stream in the next 15 years and the kids will resort to violence if they are unfairly taxed because it will take 2 kids to support one retiree
President Obama has challenged the Republicans to come up with some ideas to solve the dilemma and the best they came up so far is Paul Ryan’s proposal to raise the retirement age to 70 years (benefit cut of major import), cut the Medicare benefits (benefit cut of major import) and allow a small portion of a worker’s payroll taxes be invested in a personal investment retirement account (step in the right direction).
The real tragedy is that current benefits don’t begin to cover retirement costs and trying to save these entitlements is merely rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic. What Americans want and will insist on is a re do of the funding of retirement costs so that more than the solvency of the government entitlement programs is achieved. Bush limited his Social Security reform to solving the solvency issue – Ryan appears to have limited his approach to solvency as well. There should be no limitations placed on what Americans can do in solving this issue.
We at the Ownership Society Institute (OSI) recommend these entitlement programs be scrapped with the proviso that the government guarantee that all benefits under them will be honored and form the floor under which no future benefits can ever fall.
In place of these programs we institute personal investment accounts we like to call “USAs” – Universal Savings Accounts. That into these accounts the entire 15.3% of payroll taxes presently sent to Congress will be redirected and immediately invested in the stock market for the 40-year working life of every taxpayer. The details of OSI’s plan are outlined here. It is called the Rise Up America plan.
In addition to solving the solvency issue RUA does the following:
· Generate the biggest tax cut in history
· Reduce the size of government by half
· Alleviate poverty and economically emancipate lower class citizens
· Infuse enormous sums directly into the economy and accelerate growth
· Eliminate the need for government pensions and Medicare
· Pay off $110 trillion of unfunded Social Security and Medicare liabilities
· Give back to Americans the money that they earn
· Increase the economic opportunities of all Americans
· Avoids Bankruptcies of cities, counties and states from pension liabilities
· Makes everyone a shareholder and responsible for oversight
· Reduces crimes especially those triggered by poverty
There a hundreds of other benefits of privatizing the entitlements but let’s leave it to a simple example.
The average American household makes over $50,000 a year and pays more than $7,500 in payroll taxes. Under RUA those taxes are placed into a USA and immediately invested in the stock market for 40 years. The $300,000 (40 years times $7,500 a year) grows into a $4,004,000 nest egg because of the magic of compounding. Just the annual income off that nest egg will generate a $33,000 a month retirement check – more than enough to support an affluent lifestyle.
RUA uses the principle of small government and takes away from government the responsibility to fund entitlements. It relies on the words of Alfred Einstein as everyone should. “The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest.”
All those concerns about such a sea change in the way the government does what its citizens will want is explained at www.riseupamerica.us including how to simultaneously fund the transition, place $1.3 trillion into the stock market annually, pay benefits under the old programs and miraculously enough increase the value of the US dollar.

February 6: Ronald Reagan
A graduate of Eureka College, IL, 1932, he announced for radio stations in Iowa.
He married Jane Wyman and had children Maureen and Michael. He was a Captain in the U.S. Army Air Corp during World War II, then became an actor, appearing in over 50 films.
He was President of the Screen Actors Guild, switched from Democrat to Republican, and became Governor of California.
His second marriage, to Nancy Davis, 1952, had children Patti and Ron.
His name was Ronald Reagan, born FEBRUARY 6, 1911, and died June 5, 2004.
At age sixty-nine, he was the oldest person elected U.S. President, and sixty-nine days after his inauguration, he survived an assassination attempt.
At the Alfred M. Landon Lecture Series, 1982, Ronald Reagan stated:
"We can't have it both ways. We can't expect God to protect us in a crisis and just leave Him over there on the shelf in our day-to-day living.
I wonder if sometimes He isn't waiting for us to wake up, He isn't maybe running out of patience."
At Reunion Arena in Dallas, 1984, Ronald Reagan stated:
"America needs God more than God needs America. If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a Nation gone under."

Classic Quotes by Ronald Reagan (1911-2004) American President
Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.
--------------------
Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it.
--------------------
Above all, we must realize that no arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is so formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have.
---------------------
Before I refuse to take your questions, I have an opening statement.
--------------------
But there are advantages to being elected President. The day after I was elected, I had my high school grades classified Top Secret.
--------------------
Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty.
--------------------
Double, no triple, our troubles and we'd still be better off than any other people on earth. It is time that we recognized that ours was, in truth, a noble cause.
--------------------
Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.
--------------------
Going to college offered me the chance to play football for four more years.
--------------------
My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you I just signed legislation which outlaws Russia forever. The bombing begins in five minutes.
--------------------
I have left orders to be awakened at any time in case of national emergency - even if I'm in a Cabinet meeting.
--------------------
I couldn't help but say to Mr. Gorbachev just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from another planet. We'd find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this earth together.
--------------------
They say hard work never hurt anybody, but, I figure, why take the chance?
--------------------
History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap.
--------------------
I am not worried about the deficit. It is big enough to take care of itself.
