With less than a month before his inauguration the President shares his four biggest priorities for his second term in office.
While all eyes remain fixated on the nation's budget woes and the so-called fiscal cliff negotiations, President Barack Obama told NBC News on Sunday that he has more ambitious goals in mind for his second term.
In an exclusive interview with NBC's "Meet the Press," Obama said that there are several major issues sitting atop his agenda for the next four years, including immigration, economic growth, energy issues, the environment, and gun violence.
The president discussed efforts to address gun violence and immigration with particular urgency on Sunday.
"I've said that fixing our broken immigration system is a top priority," he said. "I will introduce legislation in the first year to get that done. I think we have talked about it long enough."
And in the aftermath of December's deadly elementary school shooting in Newtown, Conn., the president vowed to put his "full weight" behind the gun violence recommendations he asked Vice President Joe Biden to generate.

Obama said that battle would also be fought during the first year of his second term, the success of which the president suggested would hinge upon just how searing the deadly shooting was to the public psyche.
President Barack Obama says "I think anybody who was up in Newtown, who talked to the parents, who talked to the families understands that something fundamental in America has to change."
"Will there be resistance? Absolutely there will be resistance," the president told NBC's David Gregory. "And the question then becomes whether we are actually shook up enough by what happened here that it does not just become another one of these routine episodes where it gets a lot of attention for a couple of weeks and then it drifts away. It certainly won't feel like that to me. This is something that was the worst day of my presidency. And it's not something that I want to see repeated."
Obama also said he was "skeptical" of the National Rifle Association's proposal to put an armed guard in every school, though he said he would not "prejudge" any proposals to address mass shooting events.
Those items alone might constitute an ambitious agenda for a second-term president, who, history suggests, has a limited timetable to accomplish top goals before the waning powers of a lame-duck presidency set in.
Key staffers huddle behind closed doors against the backdrop of a snowy capital as they attempt to hammer a last-minute deal to avoid going over the so-called fiscal cliff. NBC's Kristen Welker reports.
But Obama added to that list two other priorities which eluded him in his first term. He said energy and the environment would be a "third thing" on his second term agenda, for instance.
"We've got a huge opportunity around energy. We are producing more energy and America can become an energy exporter," the president said. "How do we do that in a way that also deals with some of the environmental challenges that we have at the same time?"
The president acknowledged, though, that his top priority is preventing automatic tax hikes on all Americans come Jan. 1 as part of the fiscal cliff. That battle has been playing out vividly in Washington during the final days of 2012, and directly involves the fourth priority as described by Obama: stabilizing and growing the economy.
"Part of that is deficit reduction. Part of it is also making sure that we're investing, for example, in rebuilding our infrastructure, which is broken," he said, arguing that the combination of spending cuts elsewhere and new investments would help stabilize the economy.
But Obama's ability to accomplish those four priorities — and then some — could be sapped by the protracted fiscal cliff battle, or any of the other legislative battles he might encounter along the way.

Immigration reform, for instance, had failed to advance over the objections of Republicans during Obama's first term. He said during the campaign that he would seek comprehensive reforms again in his second term, predicting that, if Republicans fared poorly enough with Hispanic voters during the election, they might relent in their opposition to an immigration bill.

In fact, the GOP did not fare particularly well with the increasingly important bloc of Latino voters, but the question of whether they would relent on immigration reform was an untested proposition.
Other tough battles that could inhibit these goals include pending Cabinet confirmations. While Obama has nominated a new secretary of state — Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry — he denied having settled upon former Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., as his new secretary of defense. But Obama also shielded Hagel, reportedly a front-runner for the defense gig, by saying he sees nothing in the former senator's record as disqualifying.
And there were other second term commitments Obama resisted; he would not commit to significant reforms to entitlement programs like Medicare and Social Security during the first year of his second term, for instance.
In an exclusive interview with Meet the Press, President Barack Obama tells David Gregory he's optimistic the fiscal cliff can be averted, lays out the goals for his second term, and also discusses the Benghazi attack and how it was handled by the administration and those on Capitol Hill.
At several points in his "Meet the Press" appearance, Obama referenced President Abraham Lincoln and the recently-released film about Lincoln's pursuit of the 13th Amendment, and the trade-offs needed to achieve that goal. Obama invoked that example on both gun control and the fiscal cliff, saying that while he was not comparing himself to Lincoln, that movie offered a lesson in the occasional ugliness of political leadership.
"A, I never compare myself to Lincoln and, B, obviously the magnitude of the issues are quite different from the Civil War and slavery," he said. "The point, though, is democracy's always been messy. And we're a big, diverse country that is constantly sort of arguing about all kinds of stuff. But eventually we do the right thing."

Remember Dwight Eisenhower's famous farewell address, where he warned us of the military-industrial complex, but we didn't listen to him and wound up in lots of unnecessary (and unnecessarily costly) wars? Maybe this is the lowbrow version of that address.
Because none of the high school students at the ceremony—held at Philly's Kimmel Center—could possibly have heard Vick. You can see (and, uh, hear) that in the above video.
Or you can read it in CSN Philly's account of the event:
The Kimmel Center more resembled a football game than a graduation.
Complete with whistles and air horns, wild cheers and even a round of boos, it was the day nearly 450 graduates had been waiting for.
Vick was speaking to graduates of Philly's Camelot schools program—kids who either fell too far behind at, or got expelled from, traditional schools. We assume he said, "Stay below a 4.3 40 time, and you'll be fine, kids." But we wouldn't know. We couldn't hear him.

Newly re-elected Haifa Mayor Yona Yahav was in Toronto last week on a mission to entice entrepreneurs, community leaders and politicians to invest in the rapid development of Haifa's high-tech industry.
Yahav, who secured a third term in office in October, having won 50 per cent of the votes, said he has ambitions to develop Haifa's high-tech centre to resemble San Francisco's Silicon Valley, and he wants Toronto's help.
"I want to try to set up a support group, which we want to lean on," Yahav said in an interview with The CJN. "I offered them to be a full part of the development of Haifa and to be full partners to invest and to help."
During his three-day trip to the city, accompanied by Haifa Foundation executive director Cobie Brosh and Canadian Committee For The Haifa Foundation executive director Lisa Gardner Plant, Yahav's family in Toronto, Irena and Avi Greenspoon, hosted a dessert reception in his honour at their Thornhill, Ont., home last week.
Yahav also met with a number of Toronto city councillors to discuss economic and cultural development opportunities between the two cities.
"Haifa is known throughout the world as a city of business, culture and innovation. Speaking with Mayor Yahav, it quickly became clear that there is enormous potential for investment between our two cities," Coun. James Pasternak said. "I look forward to working together in the future on cultural and economic initiatives."
Established in 2008, Haifa is home to Hi-Center, which is an accelerator for late-stage startups. Last year, Top Start-Up was established as an accelerator for new startups. Top Center, Hi-Centre's sponsor, is an incubator that currently hosts about 20 companies, Yahav said.
Yahav said the startup he is most excited about is Lexiphone, a Hi-Center alum, that got a $2-million investment from a Toronto-based technology incubator called Intertainment Media Inc.
"Lexiphone, the first company that became ripe, is a cellular company that… allows you to talk to someone in China in English and he will hear it in Chinese, and he will speak to you in Chinese and you will hear it in English," he said.
Through Haifa's high-tech accelerators and incubators, the number of inventions of medical devices and technologies that come out of the city is on the rise.
Haifa's future looks a lot brighter than it did the last time Yahav spoke with The CJN in 2006, during the Second Lebanon War.
"The economy is in a hole, most of the businesses are closed. And people are instructed to stay behind walls because the rockets that are being shot at us contain thousands of bullets [shrapnel], which are being scattered around in a radius of kilometres," Yahav said in 2006.
But Haifa recovered quickly, he said, thanks to the rapid reconstruction effort and financial help from the Israeli government.
Today, the population in this growing city is about 300,000 – up from 270,000 in 2006.
"The unemployment rate went down to four per cent, which is the lowest unemployment rate in Israel. You have to bear in mind that when I started in 2003, we started with an unemployment rate of 12 per cent," Yahav said.
"We're in the midst of a very rapid development in the city… We changed the whole setup of the city with regard to the infrastructure… We are now considered the most modern city in Israel these days."
But Yahav isn't content to rest on the laurels of his city's high-tech sector.
"The second thing we're doing is turning the entire downtown Haifa into a university campus. This is the only project of its kind in the world because this is a city renewal through high education."
Yahav said he is also working with his government to expand the Port of Haifa, the largest of Israel's three major international seaports, to accommodate shipments from China and India. The 4-billion-shekel (almost $1.2-billion Cdn) expansion is scheduled to be completed in 2018.
"Through that, the whole economy of the city will change. Once it happens we should be able to carry out our huge project on the waterfront of Haifa," Yahav said.
"Once we succeed in building the waterfront of Haifa, this will attract about two million or more tourists to Haifa and this will finalize our aim to turn Haifa, which is the most beautiful city in Israel, into a tourist site."

What to Know
- Republican women from Virginia helped organize the protest at the RNC to support Donald Trump.
- Several Republican politicians withdrew support for Trump after the release of audio of the candidate making vulgar remarks about women.
- Corey Stewart said he knew the risk of supporting the protest but he felt it was important to do and he remains loyal to Trump.
Donald Trump's presidential campaign did one of the things the Republican candidate is best known for, firing his Virginia campaign chairman for leading a protest outside the Republican National Committee in Washington, D.C., News4 confirmed.
Prince William County Board of Supervisors Chairman Corey Stewart confirmed for News4 he was fired over the protest Monday. He said he knew the risk going into the protest but felt it was important to do.
"I stood up to the RNC today. I stood up to the Republican establishment," Stewart told News4. "They threatened to fire me and they made good on that threat."
He remains loyal to Trump.
"Tons of interviews today on behalf of Mr. Trump," Stewart posted on Facebook Monday afternoon. "Then, I went to start a rebellion against GOP establishment pukes who betrayed Trump."
The protest was organized after several Republican politicians withdrew their support of Trump following the release last week of audio from 2005 of the candidate making vulgar remarks about women.
Stewart singled out Rep. Barbara Comstock (R-10th District), who called on Trump to withdraw and is in a tough reelection fight in northern Virginia herself.
"He might not be very popular in McLean and parts of Fairfax County where she lives, but I think she is misunderstanding her district. I really do," Stewart said.
Comstock did not respond to requests for comment.
Veteran Virginia Republican Bobbie Kilberg, who supports Comstock and has worked with three Republican presidents, said she's not supporting Trump either.
"I think that we have crossed the line and that enough's enough," she said.
Stewart, who is raising money to run for governor of Virginia, posted details about the protest on Facebook Sunday, writing that Republican women in Virginia helped organize a demonstration in support of Trump at the RNC at 2 p.m. Monday. He included the address of the RNC and the closest Metro station.
"While this turn of events is disappointing, I support the Trump campaign's decision to remove their Virginia chairman," Republican Party of Virginia Chairman John Whitbeck said. "With less than a month until Election Day, we can't afford any distractions."

Jewish World Review Feb. 13, 2008 / 7 Adar I 5768
A Craven Canterbury Tale
By Anne Applebaum
http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | Is this a storm in a teacup, as the archbishop now claims? Was the "feeding frenzy" biased and unfair? Certainly it is true that, since Thursday, when Rowan Williams the archbishop of Canterbury, spiritual leader of the Church of England, symbolic leader of the international Anglican Communion called for "constructive accommodation" with some aspects of sharia law, and declared the incorporation of Muslim religious law into the British legal system "unavoidable," practically no insult has been left unsaid.
One Daily Telegraph columnist called the archbishop's statement a " disgraceful act of appeasement"; another called it a " craven counsel of despair." An Observer columnist eruditely wondered whether the archbishop's comment might count as a miracle, according to David Hume's definition of a miracle as a "violation of the laws of nature," while the notoriously sensationalistic Sun launched a campaign to remove the archbishop from office.
Feebly, the archbishop's supporters have tried to defend him, reporting that he is "completely overwhelmed" by the hostility and "in a state of shock." Arguing that his remarks were misunderstood, misinterpreted and taken out of context, his office even took the trouble to publish them, in lecture form and the radio interview version, on his official Web site. I highly recommend a closer look. Reading them, it instantly becomes clear that every syllable of the harshest tabloid criticism is more than well deserved. The archbishop's language is mild-mannered, legalistic, jargon-riddled; the sentiments behind them are profoundly dangerous.
What one British writer called the " jurisprudential kernel" of his thoughts is as follows: In the modern world, we must avoid the "inflexible or over-restrictive applications of traditional law" and must be wary of our "universalist Enlightenment system," which risks "ghettoizing" a minority. Instead, we must embrace the notion of "plural jurisdiction." This, in other words, was no pleasant fluff about tolerance for foreigners: This was a call for the evisceration of the British legal system as we know it.
I understand, of course, that sharia courts vary from country to country, that not every Muslim country stones adulterers and that some British Muslims volunteer to let unofficial sharia courts monitor their domestic disputes, which is not much different from choosing to work things out with the help of a marriage counselor. But the archbishop's speech actually touched on something far more fundamental: the question of whether all aspects of the British legal system necessarily apply to all the inhabitants of Britain.
This is no merely theoretical issue, since conflicts between sharia law and British law arise ever more frequently. One case before the British court of appeals concerns a man with learning disabilities who was "married" over the telephone to a woman in Bangladesh.
Though British law recognizes sharia weddings, just as it recognizes Jewish or Catholic weddings, this one, it has been argued, might be considered so "offensive to the conscience of the English court" that it cannot be recognized unless, of course, the fact that the marriage is legal under Bangladeshi sharia law is the most important consideration. Meanwhile, police in Wales are dealing with an epidemic of forced marriages, honor killings remain a perennial problem, and British law has already been altered to accommodate "sharia" mortgages. The archbishop is absolutely right in his belief that a universalist Enlightenment system one in which the legitimacy of the law derives from democratic procedures, not divine edicts, and in which the same rules apply to everyone living in the same society cannot easily accommodate all of these different practices.
Many explanations for the archbishop's statements have already been proffered: the weakness of the Church of England, the paganism of the British, the feebleness of Williams's intellect, the decline of the West. At base, though, his beliefs are merely an elaborate, intellectualized version of a commonly held, and deeply offensive, Western prejudice: Alone among all of the world's many religious groups, Muslims living in Western countries cannot be expected to conform to Western law or perhaps do not deserve to be treated as legal equals of their non-Muslim neighbors.
Every time police shrug their shoulders when a Muslim woman complains that she has been forced to marry against her will, every time a Western doctor tries not to notice the female circumcisions being carried out in his hospital, they are acting in the spirit of the archbishop of Canterbury. So is the social worker who dismisses the plight of an illiterate, house-bound woman, removed from her village and sent across the world to marry a man she has never met, on the grounds that her religion prohibits interference. That's why if there is to be war between the British tabloids and the archbishop I'm on the side of the Sun.

High school students in Hanover have the opportunity to learn more about the Dual Enrollment Program and Penn State courses being offered at the Guthrie Memorial Library through Penn State York during an information session set for Monday, Nov. 5. The session, from 3-5 p.m., will take place at the Guthrie Memorial Library, 2 Library Place, Hanover, Pa. This is the second semester during which courses are being offered at the library for high school students in the Dual Enrollment Program.
Dual Enrollment enables qualified high school students to get a jump on their college careers by earning college credits while still in high school at a 50 percent tuition reduction. In addition to offering courses at the Penn State York campus, courses also are being offered in Hanover so that students from that area do not have to travel. Courses being considered for spring 2013 are speech, psychology and statistics.
LeighAnn Myers, an admissions counselor at Penn State York, will be available to share information and answer questions about the Dual Enrollment Program in Hanover and the educational opportunities available at Penn State York.
To be considered for the program, students must be in their junior year or senior and have a cumulative grade-point average of a 3.0 or a combined SAT1 score of 1,000 to be eligible for this program.
Eligible students will receive tuition support in the amount of 50 percent of the tuition for two courses during each of four semesters. As long as a grade of C or better is maintained in each course, students may remain in this program, receiving the same tuition support each semester, for a total of four semesters. This tuition support is available for two courses (up to eight credits) per semester for four semesters.
Credits earned under the provisions of this program are valid at any Penn State location and may be transferred to another institution in the same way as any other Penn State credits. Students who have graduated from high school may not participate in this program.
For more information about Penn State York, visit the website at www.yk.psu.edu or contact the admissions office at 717-771-4040.

This road rage video is one of the most bizarre marriage proposals you are ever likely to see.
After a motorcyclist is headed off by a car in Russia, a bunch of other riders surround the vehicle and force it to stop.
The soon-to-be groom emerges to take abuse from the bikers, who aren't backing down.
At one point he even takes a dive on to the bonnet of his car.
But it's all a well-orchestrated stunt designed to coerce his girlfriend - in the passenger seat - to step out of the car.
As she begins to plead for the men to leave her boyfriend alone, he drops on bended knee and asks her to be his wife.
There's a round of applause when she gives her answer - and she's even treated to a bouquet of flowers from the boot of the car.
We're not sure why her fella chose that moment or that location, but it made for an extremely memorable proposal.
What it lacks in conventional romance it surely makes up for in originality.
As far as road rage incidents go, this is one of the better endings we've seen as recently one driver pulled out an axe - rather than a ring - when caught up in a roadside squabble.

With our nanotechnology, bio-availability of the CBD is increased, meaning our bodies are able to absorb more of the CBD we intake and lose less through the process of digestion. We have our materials tested by a third-party which means you are getting in the bottle what is on the label.
We employ the leanest and greenest testing methods available today. Most labs use harmful and environmentally-damaging solvents to test the makeup and quality of the hemp oil—Swiss Relief's proprietary process uses nanotechnology and eco-friendly solvents to test our crops for purity and quality. We are then able maximize bio-availability of essential components (namely CBD) resulting in greater efficacy and the greenest CBD testing processes available today.
Swiss Relief CBD products were created to bring consumers consistently pure and high-quality CBD products. Once we found our growers out of Kentucky who were combining science and farming to engineer hemp that was rich in CBD, Swiss Relief began to take form. Employing the latest methods of testing and manufacturing to bring you CBD products that are green conscious and environmentally friendly makes us proud and excited to invite you to join our Swiss Relief family.
Swiss Relief's line offers a variety of CBD products to fit your specific needs. Swiss Relief has CBD tinctures, CBD salves, and CBD gel capsules. The CBD tinctures and CBD salves are offered at various potency and concertation levels to get you the right amount of CBD you need. Tinctures and salves are also offered in a variety of scents and flavors including berry, pure, and eucalyptus to satisfy your unique tastes.

Cambodian Women's Development Agency's Safe Shelter provides safe and caring accommodation for up to 20 young women and girls aged 8 - 20. These girls have been victims of trafficking, rape and gender-based violence, or have been identified as being at high risk of this in their home environment. We provide them with food, counselling and a safe place which allows them to rehabilitate so they can focus on their education and their futures.
Gender inequality is still rife in Cambodia. The country ranks 96th out of 148 in the 2013 Human Development Report's Gender Inequality Index. Girls often do not finish their formal education, being forced to drop out or miss school days to care for siblings or work to provide income for the family. Domestic violence is culturally acceptable and trafficking in people for labor and sexual exploitation has increased due to poverty, lack of employment opportunities and education
CWDA conducts education in communities about the problems of trafficking. It is essential that there is a place to refer victims and those at risk of trafficking and abuse. The Safe Shelter provides girls and women with a safe, happy and caring place to live. They receive food, access to formal education, vocational training, leisure activities, nursing care, counselling and support when they leave the shelter. Our aim to ensure that the girls can look towards a happy and successful future.
We ensure that up to 20 girls per year go to school which means that they will be more likely to find employment and less vulnerable to exploitation. This enables them to break out of the cycle of poverty. The girls have education about child rights and activities to increase their self-esteem, creating young women with ambition and confidence. We work with girls and families to ensure that they can be reintegrated safely and successfully into their communities or have the skills to cope alone.

William Cellini, center, departs the federal courthouse with unidentified family members after Judge James Zagel sentenced him to 366 days in prison and a $75,000 fine on Thursday in Chicago.
CHICAGO -- A federal judge sentenced former Illinois powerbroker William Cellini to a year in prison Thursday for conspiring to shake down a movie producer, capping off the last trial to stem from the investigation of former Gov. Rod Blagojevich.
Cellini, 77, was once known to political insiders as the "King of Clout" for his behind-the-scenes influence in state government. The multimillionaire businessman was convicted last year for his role in trying to get a $1.5 million campaign contribution for Blagojevich from Thomas Rosenberg, the Oscar-winning producer of "Million Dollar Baby," in exchange for state business.
Judge James Zagel's sentence of one year and one day in prison was more than the probation defense attorneys sought but far less than the 6 ½- to eight years in prison recommended by prosecutors. Zagel said he took into account Cellini's poor health, including a heart attack he had in June. The judge also fined Cellini $75,000.
"This was a series of extremely unwise decisions," Zagel said in sentencing Cellini. However, he also noted Cellini's acts of charity and said the 364 letters he received from Cellini supporters was more than he'd ever seen for anyone.
Defense attorneys described Cellini's numerous health problems, including blood clots that he has had and is at risk for having in the future.
"Mr. Cellini is in the twilight of his life," defense attorney Dan Webb told Zagel.
'Hard message'
Both sides asked the judge to take Cellini's health into account, but prosecutors said the conviction still warranted prison time because public officials were involved.
Federal prosecutor Julie Porter said that Cellini's "crimes are very significant."
The Chicago Tribune quoted Porter as saying:
"If you violate the public trust, you are going to jail. You are going to lose your liberty. This is a hard message, but it is a necessary message. … It does not matter if you are 27 or 77. It does not matter if you are rich or poor."
Cellini took notes during the hearing and sat at times with his eyes closed. He read from a short statement, thanking friends and family for their support and telling the judge he didn't think he had long to live. He asked for probation but also said he took responsibility for his actions.
"My family and I suffered greatly over these past five years," he said, referring to his legal problems. Members of his family sitting in the courtroom wiped tears.
Cellini doesn't have to report to prison until Jan. 4, and the judge said he did that to give Cellini more time deal with his health problems.
Cellini left court Thursday without speaking to reporters. His defense attorneys said they were disappointed in the sentence and were considering an appeal of his conviction.
Cellini, a Springfield Republican, was appointed Illinois transportation secretary in the early 1970s. He then used his state connections to help earn tens of millions from real estate, casino and other ventures.
Despite his wealth and influence, Cellini maintained a low profile and rarely spoke in public. It was his association with Blagojevich that drew him into legal peril.
Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich gave a long, rambling speech a day before heading off to prison. NBC's Brian Williams reports.
Cellini was one of more than a dozen people ensnared by the decade-long investigation into Blagojevich. The ousted governor was sentenced last year to 14 years in prison on corruption charges, including allegations that he sought to sell or trade an appointment to President Barack Obama's vacated Senate seat. The Chicago Democrat began serving his sentence at a federal prison in Colorado in March.
Webb noted that Cellini wouldn't have pocketed any money from the shakedown of Rosenberg. Instead, prosecutors contend he saw it as a chance to further ingratiate himself with those in power.
Acting U.S. Attorney Gary Shapiro called Cellini one of the "principal movers and shakers in the corruption" that "pervaded Springfield."
Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is on his way to a federal prison in Colorado where he will begin his 14-year sentence for corruption. To share his own prison-sentence experience, former Congressman from Ohio, Bob Ney, joins NOW and discusses what is in store for Blagojevich once he's in jail.
But Shapiro said he doesn't expect this to be the end of corruption in Illinois.
"I'd like to think we're never going to be prosecuting corrupt Illinois politicians again," Shapiro told reporters after the hearing. "But I'd be insane to make that prediction."
The Chicago Tribune quoted Shapiro as saying Cellini's sentence should serve as a warning.
"I think there is something to be said for incarceration for a person in Bill Cellini's position … In certain communities, sentences of incarceration do send messages, and this is a small community we are talking about — the sort of bipartisan cabal of Illinois, the people that are the behind-the-scenes folks that fuel the corruption and raise the money. Those people pay attention to things like this, and they pay attention when someone who is almost 78 goes to prison."

Odorizzi joins Myers for reunion with Royals
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Jake Odorizzi came to the Rays on Dec. 9, 2012 in the same trade that sent James Shields to Kansas City in exchange for Wil Myers.
Now, they're both going back.
"It'll be cool," Odorizzi said Sunday, looking forward to the Rays' first road trip of the season. "Wil and I going back on the same team, together. It'll be pretty special.
"It'll be neat to see people I haven't seen in a while," Odorizzi continued. "I'll be running into people I know left and right.
"But now I'm on the other side of the field," added Odorizzi, who is slated to start the third game of the series against the Royals on Wednesday night. "I'll say my hellos and then get back to baseball."
"I'm excited to get back there and see everybody again," agreed Myers, who returned to Kansas City for one game after he was called up by the Rays last season, going 0-for-4 on Aug. 26.
"It's the first road trip of the year," said Myers. "When you go on the road, it feels like the season has really started.
"The biggest thing is to go in there and win," Myers added.

That's according to the BBC, which said the official was a 74-year-old man who died after being rushed to the hospital Sunday:
The official, named locally as Dieter Strack, had gone to measure a throw but was hit by a javelin before it hit the ground, according to local media.
The competition was called off after the incident.
The 15-year-old competitor who threw the javelin is receiving psychological counselling, police spokesman Andre Hartwig told the Associated Press.
Police are investigating, but the incident appears to have been an accident. Which, from time to time, can happen.

A hazardous weather outlook has been issued for Suffolk County east of the William Floyd Parkway, as there's a chance that a nor'easter expected to develop Saturday night to the southeast of Montauk Point could track closer to the coast, according to the National Weather Service.
As of Friday morning, "the chance for a significant snowfall is low" late Saturday into Sunday, the weather outlook said, but that could change if the storm's course shifts.
Still, a shift that would lead to significantly heavy snowfall is becoming less likely, said Tim Morrin, weather service meteorologist based in Upton.
Snowfall on Long Island is expected to be 1 to possibly 4 inches, he said, with the higher end of the range forecast for eastern Suffolk, this from late in the day to early evening Saturday through late morning Sunday.
As a prelude to that weather event, mixed rain and snow turning to all snow is expected to start Friday night close to midnight, ending by late morning Saturday, this with minor accumulation, he said. Precipitation is expected to be light, "and I will underline light," he said.
As for Sunday, prepare for a blast of bitter cold, he said, with temperatures in the 20s made to feel chiller -- in the single digits -- by winds picking up from the north-northwest. Monday is expected to be more seasonable, he said.

Jupiter and the MCR: 30 years of Ariane
Once Ariane launch controllers in Kourou's 'Jupiter' control room have initiated liftoff, their main job is complete. But thousands of kilometres away, mission controllers in ESA's Main Control Room start an intense vigil, waiting through eternal minutes for the satellite to come to life and signal home.
For thirty years, Europe's Ariane booster family has provided reliable launch services for many of ESA's most complex and sophisticated satellites.
During these decades, the critical activities of two sets of engineers — the launch controllers in the Jupiter control room at the Centre Spatial Guyanais (CSG), Kourou, and the mission controllers in the Main Control Room (MCR) at the European Space Operations Centre (ESOC), Darmstadt — have been closely related in a unique 'made in space' relationship.
These two teams remain in contact via voice and video, and ESOC is formally required to confirm during the Ariane countdown that the 'ground segment' (the tracking stations, systems and people that control the satellite in orbit) is ready for launch. If ESOC reports 'NO GO', the launch will be delayed — or even cancelled.
In the final hours leading up to Ariane liftoff, engineers from ESA and CNES (the Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales) at Jupiter pass regular updates on the launcher's status to ESOC, keeping mission control fully informed of what is happening.
After liftoff, Jupiter's formal job is done - and ours begins
"Our communication with Jupiter is rather extensive as we wait for launch. Before liftoff, we conduct our own GO/NO GO roll call, and then report to Jupiter that ESOC is ready. After liftoff, Jupiter's formal job is done - and ours begins. The pressure's really on as we wait for the acquisition of signal," said John Dodsworth, ESA Flight Director at ESOC during the Herschel/Planck dual launch on board Ariane flight V188, 14 May 2009.
Dodsworth explained that one of the launch criteria for Ariane is that human-to-human communication between ESOC and Jupiter must be in place and available at all times. "It doesn't matter whether it's by telephone, voice loop or even fax machine — we have to be in contact. If this can't be confirmed, it would also cause a 'NO GO' condition," he said.
"Direct communication with Jupiter is very important for ESOC. If there is to be a launch delay, for any technical reason, it's important to find out quickly how long the delay might last. We then have to prepare our ground segment systems for the next attempt," said Paolo Ferri, a veteran ESA Flight Director and now Head of the Solar and Planetary Mission Operations Division at ESOC.
Ferri was 'on console' and in communication with the Jupiter room during the launch of ESA's Cluster and Rosetta missions, in 1996 and 2004, respectively.
ESOC maintains contact with the satellite on board Ariane
Before launch, the team at ESOC also maintain direct network communication with the satellite payload via umbilical cables running from Ariane to the umbilical mast, part of the launch tower. These cables are kept connected until seconds before liftoff, and are usually highlighted in launch video transmissions — these can be seen falling away as Ariane's powerful engines ignite.
Conversely, after launch, engineers at Jupiter are very keen to hear from ESOC how the satellite is doing. During the thunderous liftoff, the ascent into space, separation and the start of the satellite's crucial automated activation sequence (when solar panels are deployed and critical systems switched on), there is little that anyone on the ground can do.
It is only after the satellite's signal is first acquired by a ground station and it starts transmitting that mission controllers can be sure the launch was a success, and this news is passed back to Kourou as soon as possible.
ESA: relying on Ariane for proper orbit injection
"We've always relied on Ariane to inject ESA missions into the proper orbit, and we saw this again as recently as May 2009, when Herschel and Planck in a dual launch scenario were both injected onto almost perfect trajectories allowing subsequent transfer into orbits around the L2 Lagrange point," said ESA's Manfred Warhaut, Head of the Agency's Mission Operations Department at ESOC.
In 30 years, ESOC has always been able to report 'full readiness' to Jupiter, and all Ariane launches have taken place with the ground segment ready to operate the mission.
Tense moments when ground station goes down
Ferri does recall one launch, however, when one of the ESA ground stations waiting to acquire the satellite unexpectedly became 'unavailable' due to a sudden technical problem.
"According to the official procedures, we had to report to Jupiter that the ground segment was not ready for launch. This caused a lot of worry, as you can imagine. Luckily, it was still early in the countdown, and a while later we got the ground station back on line and reported 'ready' to Jupiter. It was very tense, but in the end, we solved the problem," he said.

Some pros, like Babe Ruth and Alfonso Soriano, are locked and can't be used until opened through the Season Game. In addition to MLB stars, a host of Backyard Baseball veterans can also be used. All these players have varying abilities in skill areas such as power, pitching, catching, fielding, contact, stamina, etc. Finding a good mix of players, positioning them well on the field, and coming up with a solid batting order is crucial for success at the higher difficulty levels.
Most of the game is a straightforward and scaled down version of baseball. But, the use of power-ups in the title affects both pitching and batting in interesting ways. If you string together a few solid plays, your power-up meter will fill and enable you to pitch freeze-balls and splitters (literally) or whack the ball into orbit when at bat. Power-ups are not infallible though. In fact, it's pretty easy to give up a hit or strike out if you strictly rely on them. However, if you mix the power-ups into your normal routine, they can be game-breakers.
The overall presentation is standard, discount title fare. Nothing is crisp and it all seems to be hurried. The player likenesses are not good at all; skin tone and height are about the only things that differentiate Ortiz and A-Rod. The eight different venues available (two must be unlocked) are the visual bright spots of the title. The designs of each diamond are distinct and interesting. Conversely, the sounds and voice acting are devoid of any redeeming qualities. The canned commentary and sparse effects are definitely mute-worthy.
When all is said and done, Backyard Baseball '09 is a forgettable title that may go over with very young gamers. Though the title is not all bad, mature gamers are better off saving the time and money!

From "How Adam LaRoche's decision to quit quickly became bigger than baseball" in WaPo (which you can read without a subscription if you use private browsing).
I haven't read any of the debate and discussion, but it seems obvious to me that bringing a child to work should be a some-time thing, not an everyday practice. I think it's insane to present LaRoche as a great dad for what he did and insisted on continuing to do.
LaRoche and his wife, Jennifer, always have removed their two children from school in their home state of Kansas and received educational help from a tutoring service to keep the family together during the baseball season. LaRoche not only believed having Drake with him at the ballpark didn't hinder his son's education, he felt it enhanced it.Even if it was good for the child, why should one child have complete access to what is a shared workplace? The father and son had side-by-side lockers. I see that the players all say they supported LaRoche, but how is any player supposed to come out and oppose this man who's dug in so deeply in the fatherhood game? Objecting to what seemingly loving parents are doing with their kids is a fool's errand.
ADDED: An underlying problem here is the designated hitter. That occurred to me as I was reading the NYT article, which quotes Dwier Brown, who acted in the movie "Field of Dreams" and wrote a book titled "If You Build It." He said: "Most other sports don't have that opportunity for contemplation and time... When you're sitting at a ballpark with your dad, you have time to talk. It's not like a Raiders game." Time to talk? Sitting? There's a lot of sitting when you're the DH, as LaRoche was.

The créme fraîche topping melts fast, so to make the most of its fabulous taste and texture, add it just before eating.
- Yield
- Makes about 8 cups
- Active Time
- 1 hr
- Total Time
- 2 1/4 hr
- For consommé
- 5 to 5 1/2 lb of salmon carcasses (heads, bones, and tails)
- 4 large leeks (white and pale green parts only), halved lengthwise and sliced crosswise
- 3 celery ribs, chopped
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, sliced
- 6 fresh parsley stems (without leaves)
- 1 fresh thyme sprig
- 5 coriander seeds
- 1 bay leaf (not California)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 (750-ml) bottle dry white wine
- 3 1/2 qt cold water
- 5 large egg whites, shells reserved
- For topping
- 1/2 cup créme fraîche
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 oz salmon caviar (roe) or other caviar
- Garnish: fresh dill sprigs
- Accompaniment: Black Pepper Cornmeal Crisps
- Special equipment: cheesecloth
- Make consommé:
- Rinse salmon carcasses under cold water. Remove any blood spots and discard any gills (they look like the underside of a mushroom cap). Transfer salmon to a 10- to 12-quart pot.
- Wash leeks well in a bowl of cold water and lift from water to a colander to drain. Add leeks and remaining consomm ingredients except egg whites and eggshells to pot with salmon. Bring to a boil, covered, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, skimming any foam, 40 minutes.
- Pour stock through a sieve lined with a triple thickness of cheesecloth into a 6-quart saucepan. Boil until reduced to about 9 cups, 15 to 20 minutes, and skim any fat from surface.
- Whisk egg whites in a large bowl until foamy. Crumble reserved shells into whites and slowly whisk in half of hot stock. Gradually whisk egg white mixture into stock in saucepan and bring to a steady boil over moderate heat, whisking constantly. Boil, undisturbed, until all of whites rise to top and stock is clear, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 3 minutes.
- Pour stock through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a bowl. Then pour stock through a paper towel–lined sieve into a 3-quart saucepan. (You'll have about 8 cups.) Reheat and season with salt.
- Make topping:
- Whisk together créme fraîche and water in a small bowl set over a larger bowl of hot water until it reaches room temperature, then continue whisking until smooth and forms soft mounds.
- Serve consommé with dollops of créme fraîche and salmon caviar.
Cooks' notes:
·We recommend calling your fish market a few days ahead to order the salmon carcasses.
·Consommé can be made 3 days ahead. Cool completely before chilling, covered, or freeze 1 month.
·Consommé can be made 3 days ahead. Cool completely before chilling, covered, or freeze 1 month.

Iowa Man Killed in Clay County, SD, Crash
The South Dakota Highway Patrol says Gene Allan Stinton, 63, of LeMars was eastbound on State Highway 46 in a 2002 International Truck around 2pm.
At the same time, Tom Franklin Laidlaw, 53, of Stilt, Colorado was southbound on State Highway 19A in a 2000 Peterbilt truck.
The Patrol says Laidlaw stopped at the stop sign and continued south through the intersection, where his vehicle was struck by Stinton's truck.
Troopers say Stinton had the right-iof-way and no stop sign.
Stinton, who was wearing a seat belt, died of his injuries.
Laidlaw was not wearing a seat belt and had minor injuries.

From his interview in The Advocate magazine, to his one-liner response to a marriage equality question at a debate in socially conservative Fresno, California — "We've already solved that problem in Massachusetts" — we can tell that Dr. Phillies would never try to rationalize anti-LGBT bigotry as a way to "grow" the Libertarian Party. He recognizes that Liberty is impossible so long as the boot of big government remains on the neck of any disfavored minority group.
Outright Libertarians proudly supports George Phillies and calls on all of our members and allies to attend the Libertarian National Convention in Denver this May and cast their nominating vote for Dr. Phillies.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Channel 4 has obtained a copy of an internal email that was sent to all Jacksonville Sheriff's Office employees detailing layoffs coming in the next few months.
The letter, written by Sheriff John Rutherford, outlines the details involved in eliminating 319 positions from the agency, including all 63 JSO community service officers in August.
"I would categorize our budget discussions thus far, internally and with both the mayor's office and various members of the city council, as deliberative and comprehensive, but simply put: the pain continues," Rutherford wrote. "I have continued to voice my frustration over the percentage of our expenses which are NOT controlled by us. I am referring to internal services provided by the city for which actual costs should be identified, but cannot be."
The letter also says the community transition center will be closing.
Mayor Alvin Brown issued the following statement, saying: "I have personally met with Sheriff Rutherford numerous times in the development of the proposed city budget. While I respect the Sheriff and our dedicated public safety officers and employees, I strongly disagree with the Sheriff's proposal to raise property taxes on hardworking taxpayers. In these very difficult economic times where nearly 38,000 Jacksonville citizens are unemployed, taxpayers cannot afford to bear additional burdens. Instead, every branch of government must do its part to streamline operations, eliminate duplication, and increase efficiency. Key services like fire and rescue, libraries, and children's programs should not have to sustain more than their fair share in spending cuts."

While Oprah Winfrey couldn't be more excited about starting her own network, she admits there are downsides to being in charge of network programming.
Like when her Romanian lady cleaning talks about how she desperately wants to do a segment "on cleaning tips."
"I don't think she's eligible," Winfrey said to at a sneak peek of the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) at the Discovery Communications Upfront in Los Angeles Thursday.
Speaking from satellite in Chicago, Winfrey showed off a number of exciting shows which will begin when the OWN network launches on Jan. 11, 2011. There's a show which takes a skeptical look into miracles and country star Shania Twain has her own uplifting reality show.
But the biggest buzz from the audience came with a sneak peak of "Behind the Scenes: The Oprah Show Final Season."
"I believe in this network so much that I have agreed to do something crazy," Winfrey said. "I, Oprah Winfrey, am doing a reality show."
She showed snippets as well which will highlight Winfrey's final season as a talkshow host. Odd sights included Winfrey in a bubble bath and Winfrey picking up after her dog. Another work scene showed Winfrey about to bring the hammer down on an employee who made a big mistake.
Oprah said her staff, who will be featured on the show, are "my family." "You're going to see what it's really like to work for me," said Oprah.
Even Oprah's Cleaning Lady Wants a Gig On New Network

Congratulations to Mayor Richard M. Daley and the members of Chicago Olympic Bid Committee. Today in Washington D.C., the eleven member of the U.S. Olympic Committee picked Chicago over Los Angeles to be the United States entry in the competition to host the 2016 Olympics.
The final decision will be made in will be held in October 2009, when the International Olympic Committee will meet in Copenhagen to choose from five cities, which are expected to include Madrid, Rio de Janeiro, Rome and Tokyo.
This is a great day for Chicago which has never hosted an Olympics. We are very proud of our record in being a great host for conventions and for hosting the Century of Progress in 1933 and 1934 and the Columbian Exposition in 1893.

I've heard believers say things like "You've chosen to reject god," or "You've chosen to be an atheist." I've never felt like I chose to be an atheist. These days, I like it a lot -- it's liberating -- but in the early days it was tough going. If it had been a matter of making choices, I'm not sure it's one that I would have made. I might have chosen to be a Christian like most of the people I knew, and be accepted into that community. Atheism felt more like something that happened to me,…Continue

Lyrics: Marty Robbins
Music: Marty Robbins
Played by Bob Weir with the Dead regularly from 1970. He also played it a couple of times with Kingfish in the mid 70s, as well as more recently with Ratdog and Weir/Wasserman.
Out in the West Texas town of El PasoNotes
I fell in love with a Mexican girl
Night time would find me in Rosa's cantina (note 1)
Music would play and Felina would whirl
Black as the night were the eyes of Felina
Wicked and evil while casting a spell
My love is strong for this Mexican maiden
I was in love, but in vain I could tell
One night a wild young cowboy came in
Wild as the West Texas wind
Dashing and daring, and drink he was sharing
With wicked Felina the girl that I love
So in anger
I challenged his right for the love of this maiden
He dived with his hand for the gun that he wore
My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor
Just for a moment I stood there in silence
Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done
Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there
I had but one chance, and that was to run
Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran
Out where the horses were tied
I picked a good one, he looked like he could run
Jumped on his back and away I did ride
Just as fast as I could
From the West Texas town of El Paso
Up through the badlands of New Mexico
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless
Everything's gone, in life nothing is left
It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden
My love is stronger than my fear of death
I saddled up and away I did go
Riding alone in the dark
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me
Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart
And at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso
I can see Rosa's cantina below
My love is strong and it pushes me onwards
Down off the hill to Felina I go
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys
Off to my left ride a dozen or more
Shoutin' and shootin', I can't let them catch me
I've got to make it to Rosa's back door
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
A deep burning pain in my side
It's getting harder to stay in the saddle
I'm getting weary, unable to ride
But my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen
And though I am weary I can't stop to rest (note 2)
I see the white puff of smoke from their rifles
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest
From out of nowhere, Felina has found me
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side
Cradled by two lovin' arms that I'll die for (note 3)
One little kiss and Felina goodbye
"It wasn't until I saw Bobby at the Felt Forum that I finally got to him and told him he was singing the song wrong. All those years he sang the wrong words. He didn't know, he never listened. I knew the song pretty well, the original Marty Robbins version, but he just didn't listen. ... At the very end of the song he was singing 'Greater my true love in arms that I'll die for.' And that's not the words. The words are 'Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for.'
[Bobby said] 'Man, thanks a lot. You're right.' And there he sang it right at the Forum. He waved at me [as if to say] 'Yeah right, I finally got it right.'"
