July 4th 2009 - 4 more golf balls found - PUT A TAX ON GOLFING SO WE CAN GET RID OF IT!!




Looks as if at least 3 if not 4 balls have hit
this area of the air conditioner

More damage to my air conditioner/heater - can you believe this; that many balls in one location does not appear to me to an *accident* or an *innocent* ball gone astray! Either the course is not properly designed to minimize damage to surrounding property or there are some folks that need golf lessons - *hint; hint*

Found 4 more golf balls in my front yard today. I'd say probably most got there yesterday or today, since I've not seen any before that.


Yep, I'm going to keep track of these. Totally unnecessary considering the size of the golf course. Don't worry - I'll be taking photos of the balls as well!


I see these golfers playing golf and they always look in the ditch near the course for their balls....not once have they crossed over into my yard to try and hunt for their ball...I wonder why...lol

I must say there is something to ponder here; Wayne Reid owns the house next to mine; he doesn't seem to get any *hits* to his house; I wonder why; he doesn't live there; it's just empty; he lives in another big brick house on the other side of the course; there is another single lady that lives on the other side of me; she's even got a broken window in her, bathroom, it looks like; anyway, it's still broken, she's also got several hits to the side of her house and a hole in her air conditioner; not sure if that was golf ball damage; but these houses sure are taking a pounding; would be interesting to see if some *investors* in the *golf club* is wanting to add some property to their assets; most interesting - don't you think? Lots of investors in these parts.


SOMEONE needs some golf lessons!

Americanization of Native Americans

Americanization can refer to the policies of the United States government and public opinion that there is a standard set of cultural values that should be held in common by all citizens. Education was and is viewed as the primary method in the acculturation process. These opinions were harshly applied when it came to Americanization of Native Americans compared to immigrant populations who arrived with their "non-American traditions". The Americanization policies said that when indigenous people learned American customs and values they would soon merge tribal traditions with European-American culture and peacefully melt into the greater society. For example in the 1800s and early 1900s, traditional religious ceremonies were outlawed and it was mandatory for children to attend English speaking boarding schools where native languages and cultural traditions were forbidden. The Dawes Act of 1887 , which allotted tribal lands to individuals and resulted in an estimated total o...

Indian Boarding Schools - the US Solution to the Indian Problem

American Indian Boarding Schools Haunt Many by Charla Bear This is the first in a two-part report. For the photos with this piece and the rest of the story: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16516865 May 13, 2008 Col. Richard H. Pratt founded the first of the off-reservation Native American boarding schools based on the philosophy that, according to a speech he made in 1892, "all the Indian there is in the race should be dead." CORBIS 'Kill the Indian...Save the Man' According to Col. Richard Pratt's speech in 1892: "A great general has said that the only good Indian is a dead one, and that high sanction of his destruction has been an enormous factor in promoting Indian massacres. In a sense, I agree with the sentiment, but only in this: that all the Indian there is in the race should be dead. Kill the Indian in him, and save the man." From Need to 'National Tragedy' Early in the history of American Indian boarding schools, the...

UKB and Cherokee Nation Today

Hello, everyone – I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and didn’t overdo too much. It was a foodfest in my neighborhood and it was really fun! In this installment we will bring the story of the UKB and the Cherokee Nation to the present. As the Cherokee Nation began to recover its sovereign powers in the 1970s, after having being squelched for most of the twentieth century by the “bureaucratic imperialism” of the BIA as the judge in the Harjo case described it, the UKB was dwindling. As the Cherokee Nation elected its first Chief since statehood, developed a superseding Constitution, reinstated its citizens, reconstituted its Tribal Council (also a result of the Harjo case), established Cherokee Nation Industries and investigated other economic development enterprises, the UKB receded and was basically defunct by the end of the 1970s. But in 1979, there was a particularly nasty runoff in the Principal Chief’s race between incumbent Ross Swimmer and his opponent, Jim Gordon. Swi...
