Today he was was just named by President Obama as one of 16 recipients of the 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom. America’s highest civilian honor, the Medal of Freedom is awarded to individuals who make an especially meritorious contribution to the security or national interests of the United States, world peace, cultural or other significant public or private endeavors.&lt;br /&gt;Mr.  Hawking is listed in the White house statement as:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Stephen Hawking&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Stephen Hawking is an internationally-recognized theoretical physicist, having overcome a severe physical disability due to motor neuron disease.  He is the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a post previously held by Isaac Newton in 1669.  In addition to his pioneering academic research in mathematics and physics, Hawking has penned three popular science books, including the bestselling &lt;em&gt;A Brief History of Time&lt;/em&gt;.  Hawking, a British citizen, believes that non-academics should be able to access his work just as physicists are, and has also published a children’s science book with his daughter.

New England fans will cheer him all the more this year.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35941735-6989908827190834396?l=nolegtostandon.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/feeds/6989908827190834396/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35941735&amp;postID=6989908827190834396' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/6989908827190834396'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/6989908827190834396'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/2008/03/fair-play-randy-moss.html' title='Fair play Randy Moss'/><author><name>Ceann Rua</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16390428726113855308</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j248/ceannrua/bearlogo.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35941735.post-839338384220662155</id><published>2008-03-04T09:43:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2008-03-04T13:31:15.616-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Jeff Healey March 25, 1966 – March 2, 2008</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_T7kCcvzzR7o/R82QOePeZFI/AAAAAAAAAFk/Zi4nGdgD3-8/s1600-h/29-jeffhealey.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5173950125229106258" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_T7kCcvzzR7o/R82QOePeZFI/AAAAAAAAAFk/Zi4nGdgD3-8/s320/29-jeffhealey.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Following a lengthy struggle with cancer, Jeff Healey, Canadian jazz  blues and rock guitarists died Sunday March 2 in St. Joseph’s Hospital, Toronto. He was 41, and leaves his wife, Cristie, daughter Rachel (13) and son Derek (three), as well as his father and step-mother, Bud and Rose Healey, and sisters Laura and Linda.Funeral and memorial arrangements are pending.Robbed of his sight as a baby due to a rare form of cancer, retino blastoma, and he started to play guitar when he was three.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;   Healey and the band were featured in a movie, Road House which was inspired when its creator saw Healey playing. With the resulting stardom, they soon signed with Arista Records and in 1988 released See The Light, which included the hit single "Angel Eyes". The song "Hideaway" was nominated for the "Best Instrumental" Grammy Award, and in 1990 the band won the "Entertainer of the Year" Juno Award. Other hits have included "How Long Can a Man Be Strong" and a cover of The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  In his later years, he released three CDs from his true passion, traditional American jazz from the 1920s and 1930s. He was an avid record collector and amassed a collection of well over 25,000 78 rpm records. For many years Healey played his music-at Healey's on Bathurst Street in Toronto, where he played with a rock band on Thursday nights, and with his jazz group, Jeff Healey's Jazz Wizards, on Saturday afternoons. The club moved to a bigger location at 56 Blue Jays Way and it was named Jeff Healey's Roadhouse. Though he had lent his name and often played there, Jeff Healey did not own or manage the bar.&lt;br /&gt;Though known primarily as a guitarist, Healey also played trumpet and clarinet during live performances. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;  Healey had, from time to time, hosted a CBC Radio program entitled My Kind of Jazz, in which he played records from his vast vintage jazz collection. He hosted a program of the same name on Toronto station CJRT-FM, also known as JAZZ.FM91.&lt;br /&gt;He had also been touring with a group called the Jazz Wizards, playing American jazz from the 1920s, 1930s and early 1940s.&lt;br /&gt;  They had been planning to perform a series of shows in Britain, Germany and Holland in April 2008. His death came a month before the release of his new album, Mess of Blues, which will be his first rock album in eight years.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I always loved how he played  music. In Roadhouse there is a part where bar patrons throw bottle and Jeff ducked which I found funny some how. Thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family. May he be in Heaven playing at the right hand of G-d. May he rest in peace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;(Info for this post is from Wikipedia)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35941735-839338384220662155?l=nolegtostandon.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/feeds/839338384220662155/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35941735&amp;postID=839338384220662155' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/839338384220662155'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/839338384220662155'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/2008/03/jeff-healey-march-25-1966-march-2-2008.html' title='Jeff Healey March 25, 1966 – March 2, 2008'/><author><name>Ceann Rua</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16390428726113855308</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j248/ceannrua/bearlogo.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_T7kCcvzzR7o/R82QOePeZFI/AAAAAAAAAFk/Zi4nGdgD3-8/s72-c/29-jeffhealey.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35941735.post-1291617852617695022</id><published>2008-02-02T21:58:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-02-02T22:20:12.196-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hall of Fame bound.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_T7kCcvzzR7o/R6UvBSJBCsI/AAAAAAAAACk/BzaC-MMRy6Q/s1600-h/Tippett4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5162584246946171586" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_T7kCcvzzR7o/R6UvBSJBCsI/AAAAAAAAACk/BzaC-MMRy6Q/s320/Tippett4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Number 56 in your programs but a close number 1 in your hearts ( if your a Pats fan), New England linebacker Andre Tippett was elected into the Football Hall of Fame today.

Having the time of my life!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From his myspace page on why he joined:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; "If you think the only way a person could bring themselves to volunteer for this war is through sheer desperation or blind obedience, then consider me the exception," he wrote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Don't forget that human beings have a responsibility to one another and that Americans will always have a responsibility to the oppressed," he added. "Don't overlook the obvious reasons to disagree with the war, but don't cheapen the moral aspects either."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said his heroes were immigrants who risk their lives to achieve better ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He wrote that those who still don't get why he volunteered to go to Iraq should at least wish him good luck.&lt;br /&gt;Thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, and his whole family and friends. May he rest in peace.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35941735-1632405645282048007?l=nolegtostandon.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/feeds/1632405645282048007/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35941735&amp;postID=1632405645282048007' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/1632405645282048007'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/1632405645282048007'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/2007/01/rest-in-peace-soldier-2nd-lt-mark-j.html' title='Rest in Peace Soldier ( 2nd Lt.

Ripken  appeared on 98.53 percent of ballots to finish with the third-highest percentage behind Tom Seaver (98.84) and Nolan Ryan (98.79). Gwynn received  97.61 percent, the seventh-highest ever, also trailing Ty Cobb, George Brett and Hank Aaron. You need 75 % to get in. My friends the question I ponder now is this :&lt;br /&gt; If Cal Ripken can't get 100 percent who can? Another question to ponder two  ballots were blank, how can you not vote those guys in? Is it a first time thing? That is just a silly reason.&lt;br /&gt;On another more local note Jim Ed Rice fell short again. Here is a guy I used to pretend I was when I was in t-ball. So I have a soft spot for Mr. Jim Ed. The people in the know say that he may have a good chance next year.

So Lowell, Boston, Springfield, places with a lot of cripples will be hard pressed to meet the need. Now I wont be like some folks bring up the "c" word, you know &lt;em&gt;conspiracy&lt;/em&gt;. I don't think because there is a republican in office and cripples tend to vote democrat, the folks now in office did not get machines.

He wore a World Series jacket, ok plug where you are fine. But jeans?  I was taught when you sing the Anthem you show respect, and that includes how you carry yourself. To sing the anthem on TV? Again, I'd think that would call for people to dress up.

It broke it down more with these interesting but not totally unsurprising numbers from an article from &lt;a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20061015/ts_alt_afp/afplifestyleussociety"&gt;yahoo news&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;More than 14 million households were headed by single women, another five million by single men, while 36.7 million belonged to a category described as "nonfamily households," a term that experts said referred primarily to gay or heterosexual couples cohabiting out of formal wedlock.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In addition, there were more than 30 million unmarried men and women living alone, who are not categorized as families, the Census Bureau reported.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By comparison, the number of traditional households with married couples at their core stood at slightly more than 55.2 million, or 49.8 percent of the total.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wonder what ten years from now the Census will look like?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35941735-116104361248311458?l=nolegtostandon.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/feeds/116104361248311458/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35941735&amp;postID=116104361248311458' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/116104361248311458'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/116104361248311458'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/2006/10/love-and-marriage.html' title='Love and Marriage.....'/><author><name>Ceann Rua</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16390428726113855308</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j248/ceannrua/bearlogo.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35941735.post-116093488295775867</id><published>2006-10-15T12:30:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2006-10-15T22:00:29.270-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Ready for American football.....</title><content type='html'>I'm ready for American football but the Pats in New England have a bye this week...grrrr.&lt;br /&gt;Random note my friends, please check out &lt;a href="http://www.superbowlmonday.com/"&gt;http://www.superbowlmonday.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these great folks have the&lt;em&gt; BRILLIANT&lt;/em&gt; Idea to declare Super Bowl Sunday designated as a National holiday. Of course the following Monday will be designated as a day of observation.&lt;br /&gt;the site has the reasons, all which make sense to me. Some facts and points from the site:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-The average number of people attending a Super Bowl party is 17%, over 20 million Americans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Two out of five Super Bowl watchers are not even football fans. Even people who will never watch another game all year will tune in to be part of this one national event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-Super Bowl weekend is the slowest weekend for weddings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They want to call the Holiday: American Sports Day, National Sports Day, Athletic Day, or even&lt;br /&gt;Lombardi Day ( folk around Boston will want to call it Belichick Day, for in Bill we trust). All good names. My friends please leave in the comments your idea's for the name of the Holiday (please keep it clean) .

This prayer is to St. Isidore of Seville, Patron Saint of the Internet ( yes, there is a Patron Saint of the internet).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Almighty and eternal God, who created us in Thy image and bade us to seek after all that is good, true and beautiful, especially in the divine person of Thy only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, grant we beseech Thee that, through the intercession of Saint Isidore, bishop and doctor, during our journeys through the internet we will direct our hands and eyes only to that which is pleasing to Thee and treat with charity and patience all those souls whom we encounter. Through Christ our Lord.&lt;br /&gt;Amen &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;This blog is dedicated to my brother in the Army.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/35941735-116079756705441805?l=nolegtostandon.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/feeds/116079756705441805/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=35941735&amp;postID=116079756705441805' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/116079756705441805'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/35941735/posts/default/116079756705441805'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nolegtostandon.blogspot.com/2006/10/first-post.html' title='First Post'/><author><name>Ceann Rua</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16390428726113855308</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='30' height='32' src='http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j248/ceannrua/bearlogo.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
