Who is a local hero? I am writing a book and am looking for them.?
I am writing a book on local heroes: people who are positively affecting their communities, their state and their world.
Can you tell me about heroes in your area? Nominate them. Send me news links, names, contact info if you can find it. Thanks!
My website is www.SunnyHarborPublishing.org
So far, I have 10 people / groups.
I have
**a multi-millionaire who has chosen to live in a poverty area and help the poor.
**a homeless man who now runs a homeless shelter
**a batered wife who now runs a shelter that's saved 25,000 women and children
**a teacher who taught until she was 90!
**a journalist who has influenced world leaders to be accepting and tolerant
**a doctor %26amp; minister who have teamed to help lead generational welfare kids out of their pattern of poverty
**a law enforcement officer who nearly died from an on-the-job injury %26amp; now helps minorities
**a school class that mentors underprivileged 2nd graders
**a world record holder teaching kids to swim|||Anyone still doing Katrina clean up in Lousianna.
Any of the people from Red Cross who fed me from converted ambulances while I was doing clean up in Lousianna. The Red Cross should be able to put you in contact with some of them.
Kent Biffle, of the Dallas Morning News, who's been a journalist and lately Texanna specialist who's been with the News for over 40 years. He's brought an entertaining sense to the history of our state and a dry sense of humor. It's fun to laugh while I learn.
A 16 year old in Hollywood, Fla that saved $5000 of his own money, and used it for Christmas presents for the family of a man who's license was suspended. CBS 4 in Hollywood should be able to get you in touch with him.
Larry Stewart, the famed secret Santa that gave away millions to cash strapped people and built a legacy of giving.
JT|||My local hero will always be Michael Hutchence. He was a singer/songwriter/dreamer of the band INXS. He died at around the age 37 in 1997. This death was a mystery for the longest time, some accept it, but like me I think it was an accident gone wrong. He had no reason to die, he had a baby daughter, and a new wife Paula Yates/Hutchence. So Mike's death was an accident for sure. The critics don't think so, they called it Suicide.|||Local to where?
Check out names on Monuments in your local area.
Some street names are made after heros that are mostly forgotten. Ask you council or Historic society aroud your local area about any names like that|||I don't know if this woman can be classified as a "hero" so to speak, but in our local community she is well recognized for many things. First of all she was the first female prosecutor to sustain a death sentence in Louisiana. In my book that is not what makes her a hero (sure she was a tough prosecutor, tough on crime, fair and has a hear tmost prosecutors do not have) the amazing thing about tis is that she still keeps in touch with not only th evictim's family but the defendants as well. Clearely***if anyone deserved the death penaly this person did, heinous crime, no remorse etc.) she was featured in a local magazine on the cover titled "dyamic duos" a photo of her and her husband both attorneys. But the real hero in this amazing woman is tha she gave up her job as the highest paid da in the state to go out on he rown, b/c she was tired of watching the acccused not get a fair shake, a white woman about 39-40 recognized and was not afraid to admit that the judiciial system pu the poor, poverty stricken an dunfortunatley in this area that tends to be 90% black males at a severe disatvantage. The rich can hire hot shot criminal defense attorneys, the middle class can scrape up enough money to get a decent atty, but the poor get stuck wit public defenders. they are not bad attorneys per se , just overworked and undrpaid and seldom even meet the clientbefore trial, so she left her guaranteed salary, and al he rbenefits to open her own practicce so that she could "even or level the playing field" she is awesome an dnow the poor have a c hance, no she is noit free, but she takes cases , take swhat people can pay, allows slow ans small payment plans, and now the poor have a fighting chance of staying out of angola or the death chamber for a minimum fee that anyone could afford. she is also active in the march of dimes and a variewty of othe rcharities, has a handicapped child, i do not know how she does it all, but we are lucky to have her here. for more info e-mmail me.|||It depends on what your criteria is.

Why doesnt any club bid for Denilson (the good 1, not the overrated arsenal guy) ?
he is a 31 yr old winger who recently had a trial at Bolton
currently contracted to a vietnamese league side, I think it is ludicrous that no even a championship side like Crystal Palace, West Brom or Ipswich have made any attempts to buy the guy
He has been capped by Brazil over 60 times and is a previous transfer fee world record holder (a 拢21m transfer to real betis in 1998)
the guy is only 31 yet it seems to me that he is being treated like a 50yr old - not considered even good enough for MLS football therefore he is plying his trade in vietnam|||Even i'd have him at Chelsea tbh
so what if he's only a dribbler? if he can get the ball past people that's good enough for me and it's more than alot of players can do these days
there'l probly be a club that will bid for him , but with him being where he is not many people will be watching to see how he's getting on.|||if he is good you can go and buy him|||rofl @ the overated Arsenal guy.Is he even rated in the first place?
No Premiership midfielder has better ball retention or more interceptions, only two tackle with a better success rate than the young Brazilian and only four make more tackles. The biggest compliment you can ever pay a screening midfielder is if you do not notice him, Denilson`s immaculate work has gone largely unnoticed by doing those jobs that defensive midfielders must master so well.
The Denilson you just mentioned is just a dribbler and he is 31 year old.Who want's to have a 31 year old winger in a team?
@Mr X : Beckham is a RM first and Theo starts ahead of Beckham for England anyway.
Beckham offers more with crosses and freekicks.. Denilson is just a dribbler and dats bout it..
Drogba as a winger lmao Even you know he is better as an out an out striker.|||^(edit)^ indeed. my point is, both players i mentioned have done well over the age of 31, regardless of position
drogba's 32. beckham's 34. you wouldnt want one of them on your team?
"I'm twice as good as the number 10" - on why he chose the number 20 for Brazil.
On David Beckham: "He鈥檚 pretty. So he鈥檚 very lucky: he鈥檚 both a footballer AND pretty. I鈥檓 this ugly and still the women are all over me"
alot of teams can use this kind of attitude. the guys a world cup winner too, so no more chokin' in the big competitions|||nah the trail at bolton was a long time ago and it ended he is going to pay in Thailand right now i believe. i dont think he has the stamina for the Prem.|||where is he now.....let me think oh yes he is at ping pong Cement works pub team Vietnam......lmfao|||probably because he will want big money from the club who sign him. he's good on his days,, quick, skillful, talented, and scored a lot of goals but sometimes he's just too selfish like Ronaldo (peace)...
LMAO Denilson (Arsenal) had better stats than Alonso last season,, how could you say he's overrated ?|||I know he's quality i'd love to see him in the prem

Fastest sprinter...EVER? Joe Calzaghe v Usain Bolt.?
Joe Calzaghe v Usain Bolt.....
Usain Bolt is the 100 and 200metre world record holder and Olympic sprint champion.
IF Joe Calzaghe were to line up next to Bolt, who would win if...
Just befopre the gun went off, someone shouted to Joe...."Chad Dawson and Carl Froch are behind you"?
After hearing those two names, my money says Joe would break the world record, but keep sprinting, straight out of the arena, all the way home to the safety of his house, under his blankets in bed!!
Who do you guys think would win???|||lol nice one shake. Yeah i think Calzaghe would come in first. The man is a disgrace to the sport of boxing... he personally is not a disgrace but his attitude and opinion of himself and the sport sure is a disgrace.|||Bolt. Your stupid|||pbf..deffo runs around the ring like a an olympic athlete never squared up to anyone in his life,including his step mother....but the fastest ever was roy jones as it took many years for calzage to catch him up and whup his pathetic cowardly @ss..get it in you you ballbag..46-0..you aint got nothing to compare...joe=no.uno and you know it..tosser|||That twist really had me laughing.
I say Calzaghe would beat Bolt.|||I'll put my money on my old friend Joe! He is a sprinter all right, especially when someone shouts, "Chad and Carl ...."|||you're gay|||And if Hopkins were lining up beside them, he'd run in third in 15 seconds, he'd then complain that he actually won the race but his lane was much longer than the other lanes, and all his supporters would claim that (a) yes indeed he won and (b) Calzaghe owed him a rerun...
FWIW if Calzaghe did fight Dawson, beat him, and then retired, we'd be hearing that he was ducking Diaconu...|||LMAO calzaghe dont want none.

I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period.
I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any president
in U.S. history.
I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any
12-month period.
I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S.
stock market.
I am the first president in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal
record.
I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one year
period.
After taking-off the entire month of August 2001, I then presided over the
worst security failure in U.S. history.
I attacked and overtook two countries, promised to rebuild them and have
not yet done so.
I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. president.
In my first year in office over 2-million Americans lost their jobs and
that trend continues every month, leaving us in higher than ever unemployment.
I set the record for least amount of press conferences than any president
since the advent of television.
I signed more laws and executive orders effectively amending or ignoring
the Constitution than any president in history.
I presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to
intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed.
I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history and refused to
use national reserves as past presidents have done.
I have cut health care benefits for war veterans and support a cut in duty
benefits for active duty troops and their families -- in war time.
I allowed non-compete oil contracts to go to my VP's company (where he is
still employed, but on "deferred compensation") and won't answer to anyone
about it.
I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously
protest me in public venues (15 million people) shattering the record for
protest against any person in the history of humankind.
I've dissolved more international treaties than any president in U.S.
history.
I've made my presidency the most secretive and unaccountable of any in
U.S.history.
I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any
administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice,

I am the first president in U.S. history to have almost all 50 states
of the Union simultaneously suffer massive financial crisis.
I presided over the biggest corporate stock market fraud of any market in

of the United States.
I set the all-time record for biggest annual budget spending increases,
more than any president in history.
I am the first president in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove
the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission.
I removed more checks and balances, and have the least amount of
congressional oversight, than any presidential administration in U.S.
history.
I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law.
I refused to allow inspectors access to U.S. "prisoners of war"
(detainees) and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention.
I am the first president in history to refuse United Nations election
inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election).
I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most
corporate campaign donations.
My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends,
(Kenneth Lay, former CEO of Enron Corporation) presided over the largest
corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. history. My political party used the
Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the
U.S. Supreme Court during my 2000 election decision.
I have spent more money on polls and focus groups than any president in

I failed to fulfill my pledge to capture Osama Bin Laden, dead or alive.

Saudi's in a bad light.
I entered my office with the strongest economy in U.S. history and have
turned every single economic category downward -- all in less than two

You're being quite a brat if i might add. You are in denial about tuesday for sure.
BTW: You are off because Obama took #1 not bush.|||Bush?|||c'mon, mel gibson has been blamed for a lot , but surely not all that

Question: What % of black americans voted for obama because he was black and had no clue on the issues?
Question Details: honestly, throw a number out their. by issues i mean foreign policy, education, taxes, health care and so on. you get my point
Deleted Answer: HERE IS WHY. RESUME GEORGE W. BUSH 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, DC 20520 EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE: Law Enforcement: I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been "lost" and is not available. Military: I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam. College: I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. I was a cheerleader. PAST WORK EXPERIENCE: I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business in Midland,Texas in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our friends in the oil industry (including Enron CEO Ken Lay), I was elected governor of Texas. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS: I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history. With the help of my brother, the governor of Florida , and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became President of the United States, after losing by over 500,000 votes. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT: I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over one billion dollars per week. I spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs and that trend continues. I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleezza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. President. I am the all- time U.S. and world record -holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. history, Enron. My political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election decision. I have protected my friends at Enron and Halliburton against investigation or prosecution. More time and money was spent investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent investigating one of the biggest corporate rip-offs in history. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. I changed the U.S. policy to allow convict ed criminals to be awarded government contracts. I appointed more convicted criminals to my administration than any President in U.S. history. I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States Government. I've broken more international treaties than any President in U.S. history. I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. I refused to allow inspector's access to U.S. "prisoners of war" detainees and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. I am the first President in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 US election). I set the record for fewest numbers of press conferences of any President since the advent of television. I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. After taking off the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security failure in U.S. history. I garnered the most sympathy ever|||Deleted Answer: HERE IS WHY. RESUME GEORGE W.

Who is better, Phelps or Spitz?
Who is better, Spitz or Phelps? Well, the reality is that every one of the top eight in the comparable events were better in 2008 than was Spitz in 1972.
As you read this little tid bit of information, keep in mind that Phelps also swam the 200m and 400m Individual Medley. The 400 IM is, without a doubt, the most grueling race in all of swimming. Phelps set world records in both of those races. Phelps swam 5 individual races and set world records in 4 of them. Spitz went 4 for 4..
Mark Spitz, 1972 .....................2008 Olympic results
All of Spitz’s times
were world records..............1st.............8th Place
*200 m butterfly...2:00.7......1:52.03 (Phelps-WR)........1:55.14
**200 m freestyle 1:52.78.....1:44.85 (Phelps-WR).......1:47.47
***100 m freestyle 51:22.......47.21.........48.33 (no Phelps)
..............................WR(47.05… set in prelims by Alain
................................Bernad who was also the winner.
****100 m butterfly....54.27......50.58 (Phelps)........51.86
* Michael Phelps split 53.53 at 100 meters, the HALF WAY point of his 200 meter butterfly which was faster than Spitz’s 1972 World Record (54.27) swim for the 100 (of course, Phelps still had 100 meters to go!). Phelps set a world record in winning
**Phelps’ 100 m split (half way) for his 200 m swim was 51.54, only 0.32 slower than Spitz’s World Record for the 100 m swim in 1972.
***On the anchor of the US’s 400 free relay, Jason Lezak swam a 46.06. However, on relays, the swimmer has a rolling start and the time does not count as a record. Nevertheless, Lezak’s split was the fastest split in history by about 0.5 seconds. For those of you who are familiar with or swam in 25 yard pools in high school or college, Lezak’s 100 meter split converts to a :39.75 for 100 yards!!! Phelps did not swim this event.
****Ian Crocker (4th at Olympics) is the current world record holder at 50.40 seconds. Crocker set that record a bit over 3 years ago. This was the only event in which Phelps did not set a world record.
So, what do you think? |||Well, I would have to say Phelps. But, Phelps and Spitz were equally good at their own time. I mean, trainings and record times have gotten better through out the years.
Other than that, I would still say Phelps because Phelps won 8 golds in a single Olympics where else Mark Spitz won 7.|||Phelps ofcourse.|||Phelps is the best out of everyone and he totally beats Spitz
|||Phelps|||Phelps all the way!!!!!!!!|||phelps|||I'm going to have to say Phelps.|||spitz did a great job because he was the last one up on the swimming team and really did the best he could and they all won %26lt;3
but come one, phelps is just sooo awesome, he's the best of the best yet so modest about it...winning 6 (i think) gold medals...and yet he's still so nice about it and says he couldnt have done it without his teamates %26lt;3 he's my new role model....PHELPS RULES %26lt;3|||Phelps is better. Spitz depended more upon his relays to get golds, where as Phelps did more individual events. Spitz had to rely more on his team mates to get him through, where Phelps only had to do this twice. Also, just compare the times. Phelps is obviously faster than Spitz was. The only question is, who is the better athlete for his time? I still believe Phelps is, but thats where the real question lies.
