Source: Yahoo! TV
Ralph Waite, who played patriarch John Walton Sr. on "The Waltons," has died. He was 86 years old.
Waite spent nine seasons in Walton's Mountain as the dad of a rural Depression-era family on CBS's beloved family drama. "The Waltons" was a Top 20 hit in the mid-1970s, and is fondly remembered for the family's heartfelt good-night routine: "Good night, John-Boy."

Fox guest on classroom fairness: Exclude kids who don’t deserve a ‘pity Valentine’
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/02/13/fox-guest-on-classroom-fairness-exclude-kids-who-dont-deserve-a-pity-valentine/
A Fox News guest on Thursday asserted that some children should be excluded when Valentine’s Day cards are given out at school so that they can learn that the world isn’t fair while the “stakes are low.”
For years, many teachers have asked grade-school students to bring Valentine’s Day cards for everyone in the class if they bring them to school. But when one New Jersey teacher sent a note home this year explaining the policy, Fox News hosted a segment suggesting that political correctness was running amuck.

Colorado State Senator: It Was A ‘Good Thing’ That Movie Theater Gunman Had 100-Round Magazine
http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2014/02/13/3289411/colorado-aurora-magazines-good-thing/
Quote from Colorado state Sen. Bernie Herpin (R)
“As it turned out, that was maybe a good thing that he had a 100-round magazine, because it jammed. If he had four, five, six 15-round magazines, there’s no telling how much damage he could have done until a good guy with a gun showed up.”

CEO who sells $800 sequined dresses tells 99 percenters: Stop whining, you’d be rich in India
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/02/13/ceo-who-sells-800-sequined-dresses-tells-99-percenters-stop-whining-youd-be-rich-in-india/
A fashion mogul offered some advice to Americans who aren’t among the top 1 percent of wealth holders: Stop whining.
“We’ve got a country that the poverty level is wealth in 99 percent of the rest of the world,” said Bud Konheim, CEO and co-founder of the luxury fashion company Nicole Miller. “We’re talking about woe is me, woe is us, woe is this.”
Konheim, whose company sells $800 sequined dresses and $250 purses, disagreed with another panelist Wednesday on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that America’s bottom 99 percent were among the top 1 percent elsewhere.

Kentucky trooper wants job back because raping that girl was just a ‘moral mistake’
http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/02/13/kentucky-trooper-wants-job-back-because-raping-that-girl-was-just-a-moral-mistake/
A Kentucky state trooper told a trial board last month that he would like to have his job back after he was fired for having sex with a 15-year-old girl, calling the relationship a “moral mistake.”
In a transcript obtained by WDRB, former Kentucky State Trooper Jerry Clanton asserted to the Kentucky State Police Trial Board that he was under the false impression that the 15-year-old girl was 18 years old when he started having sex with her.
Was there a tie for a gold medal at the Olympics today?
My wife and I are Boycotting watching the Olympics because of Russia cruel treatment of the LGBT community BUT a friend of mine who thinks our boycott is stupid told us there was a tie for Olympic gold.
Is that true?
Does anyone know how often that happens?
What does the medal ceremony look like? (just curious)
Is it true that there is a bill being introduce to increase the min Wage in PA?
If this is true what is the wage they are suggesting?
Why can't America have this type of respect when getting ready for war Or even humanitarian aid
Or just understanding there are other lives and cultures in this world worthy of respect.
Why is it this speech was laughed at by a couple 18 year olds and the general called weak for this speech.
Is anyone having trouble using there tablets or smart phones. Would net neutrality being struck down
About month ago we added my mother in law to our cell phone plan. To kind of help her out anyways before we added her my wife and I had unlimited talk, text and data for one price. AFTER adding my Mother in law we notice we still have unlimited Text and talk but we can't get on the net. at first my wife and I thought they messed up our plan and we just need to talk to someone BUT we are also noticing that my wife's tablet (an anniversary gift I got for her and yes I got it on sale it is a older model as well) isn't working right for the past week and a half. She can no longer connect to Amazon and the games she bought from amazon are giving her trouble or she can't access them at all. She keeps getting messages that internet connection not working YET she had just played a game she got 2 days ago from an app on the tablet she never used before until she started having issues with connecting to amazon. She wanted to use the rest of a gift card to buy a game. cannot connect.
Anyways is anyone else having this issue. My wife mentioned to me that a court struck down net neutrality but would that have anything to do with our phones and tablet?
My wife just called me. Brody the cat finally ate something today.
She was so worried. She said he took a couple sips of water and he is gingerly eating.
