"This is a president who needs a vacation. His job rating is … certainly an acceptable mark. But if you look at it over time, it has [gone] south without a doubt."
Democratic pollster Peter D. Hart on President Obama's falling poll numbers.
"What you had today was two gentlemen [who] agreed to disagree on a particular issue. I don't think we spent too much time dwelling on the past. We spent a lot of time talking about the future."
"As a member of Congress, I have a very good health care plan. My health care plan allows me to get paid an annual physical. Because of annual physical, I was able to detect this prostate cancer very early. . . . The benefit of being in Congress isn't available to everyone."
U.S. Senator Christopher Dodd (D-Connecticut) announcing he has prostate cancer.
"You folks keep looking for the news and there ain't no news."
Republican Senator Charles Grassley, one of the negotiators on health care reform, saying that part of the problem is that journalists are too hungry to report on what's going on behind the closed doors of the meeting room.
"We all want to fix what's broken in health care, but we need to get it right."
Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan
"We're not going to be out of this for another two budgets."
State Senate Majority Leader Russ Decker (D-Weston) about
"It's like a kid who rushes and turns his homework in on time and expects to get a few points for that, even though the whole page is incorrect. I would have sat in that conference committee until November if it meant whittling away at a $5 billion tax increase."

"The people of

Here are, in my view, interesting, noteworthy columns and articles from the past week that I highly recommend (You will note that on occasion, I do not endorse the opinions of the author and may point that out. Despite my disagreements, I still feel the piece is worth a read).
Too few Medals of Honor for
"Eight years of war in
The God Who Bleeds
"Oprah promised Obama would help us 'evolve to a higher plane.' Deepak Chopra said Obama's presidency represented 'a quantum leap in American consciousness.' Last month, Newsweek editor Evan Thomas proclaimed that Obama stood 'above the country, above -- above the world, he's sort of God.'
Well, now he's the god who bleeds, and once you're the god who bleeds, it's hard to get the divinity back in the tube, as it were."
Disaster in the making
"Many people are rightly worried about what this administration's reckless spending will do to the economy in our time and to our children and grandchildren, to whom a staggering national debt will be passed on. But if the worst that Barack Obama does is ruin the economy, I will breathe a sigh of relief."
How About a National Conversation on Race Hoaxes?
"We wouldn't have known about this case at all if the professor, Henry Louis Gates Jr., hadn't blast e-mailed the universe that he was harassed by racist cops. Gates thought it would be a feather in his cap, not realizing there are huge areas of the country where people don't think it's heroic to browbeat cops checking on you after you break into your own house, such as 99 percent of the country outside of
"Reforming the health care system is dead. Cause of death? Blunt trauma administered not by Republicans, not even by Blue Dog Democrats, but by the green eyeshades at the Congressional Budget Office."
"We all want to fix what's broken in health care, but we need to get it right. With Congress out of session next month, August represents a unique opportunity for the American people to truly engage in this critical debate."
The sovereignty of the people
"Even in
Down with dog killer Michael Vick
"Some people just cannot wait for dog killer Michael Vick to return to professional football. The only thing this inter-species sadist deserves is universal derision."
Liberals Save Everything But the Unborn
"The hypocrisy of many left-wing zealots would be amusing if it weren't so tragic. These folks love to advertise their philanthropic exploits by 'saving' things, none of which is unborn children. Sometimes I think they try to out-empathize one another until one or the other cries 'uncle,' and the loser agrees to cry in their latte until whatever needs saving is either extinct or added to the endangered species list."
"Twas 147 shopping days before Christmas…
"Holly Linskie was taken aback this week when confronted with a Christmas display in a Dallas-area Sears store as she was shopping for sneakers with her 7-year-old grandson. 'It's ridiculous,' she said, as the boy ogled an old-fashioned police-car collectible featured in the display. 'Let's get past Halloween first'."

Over at The Right View
"There has never been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Lady's social life."
It's obscene.

Some folks just aren't wise enough to learn a valuable lesson from a cartoon frog.
The year is 1994. The place is Rose City, Michigan where James Wauldron is operating a T-shirt shop. Many of the designs featured wild animals, but Wauldron's officemates weren't impressed with the company's wimpy frog. So Wauldron went back to the drawing board, coming up with a picture of a frog that had what I'll call an attitude. It was gesturing in an unfriendly manner.
More than a few of Wauldron's customers told him the rude amphibian looked like a beer label. Wauldron wanted to sell shirts, but suddenly his patrons were demanding a beer that had the naughty frog on the bottle.
Bad Frog Beer was born garnering sales in over 20 states winning numerous awards, including the bronze medal at the 1995 World Beer Championship in

Kyla's Korner - Musings of a Mother (08/02/09)
By Jennifer Fischer
This ain't for Ol' Blue Eyes...
President Obama isn't a doctor...
But he plays one on TV.
John Boehner, the Republican Minority Leader in the House released this video today.
Obama lied
You can't be surprised by any of this:
"Barack Obama will highlight his middle-class tax cuts during an event today in
Cheeseheads in Illinois state government?
It's vintage
Keshet, a Chicago-based Jewish organization undoubtedly provides wonderful programs and services for developmentally disabled youngsters. Last month, Illinois Governor Pat Quinn signed the state's capital budget into law that includes spending $150,000 to build a log cabin for a Keshet camp.
Problem. The camp is C
That's right.
Of course, there is opposition, led by Rob Sherman.
The benefits of Keshet notwithstanding, how would you feel, Wisconsin taxpayer, if your tax dollars were being spent on a new building in
Here's the story.
The left gets a dose of its own medicine
Lefty bloggers, incapable of engaging in intellectual debate, often resort to the sophomoric tactic of taking a picture of someone they despise and tossing childish insults. Another stupid ploy is taking another blogger's title and distorting it with some feeble attempt at humor.
That's why I'm glad to see this popping up all over
Obama the biggest liar to ever serve as president
John Hawkins has the goods.
More cuts at the MJS
I'm not sure how this continues to maintain the high quality local news focus of the newspaper as suggested by Elizabeth (Betsy) Brenner, President and Publisher of Journal Sentinel.
The Joke is on the hateful left this time
Los Angeles Urban Policy Roundtable President Earl Ofari Hutchinson says, "Depicting the president as demonic and a socialist goes beyond political spoofery, it is mean-spirited and dangerous."
Mean-spirited and dangerous? Where was
"We have issued a public challenge to the person or group that put up the poster to come forth and publicly tell why they have used this offensive depiction to ridicule President Obama," said Hutchinson.
I also am curious who this individual is because I want to make him/her one of my HEROES OF THE WEEK.
The blogosphere is also abuzz with news that in 2008, Vanity Fair depicted President Bush as The Joker.
No outcries from the hypocritical left back then!
Love it!
Hey Big Spender!
CBS News, not FOX, CBS News reports:
"So rapid is the pace of deficit spending by the federal government, that the National Debt has increased over a trillion dollars since President Obama took office."
Yeh, so. George W. Bush was a big spender, too wasn't he?
Oh yes he was. But as CBS emphasizes:
"During the last administration, it took over 2 ½ years for the National Debt to increase a trillion dollars."
Read Mark Knoller's blog.
Prince Fielder needs to grow up
Prince Fielder's temper tantrum following last night's 17-4 shellacking by the Dodgers in
Upset because Dodger reliever (and former Fielder teammate) Guillermo Mota drilled him with a pitch in the ninth inning, an angry Fielder attempted to barge his way into the Dodger clubhouse after the game to go after Mota.
Mota hit Fielder after Brewer reliever Chris Smith nailed Dodgers slugger Manny Ramirez with a pitch in the seventh inning. Fielder is either too stupid, too immature, or both to realize that as long as baseball has been around, if your pitcher hits one of their guys, one of their pitchers will retaliate.
Though Mota's action was intentional, he hit Fielder in one of his large legs where damage would be just a few smarts. It certainly was not as dangerous as throwing at Fielder's head.
You never, ever try to go into the other team's clubhouse seeking revenge. Brewer players were seen right there with Fielder along with manager Ken Macha. It appeared some players weren't even making an attempt to restrain Fielder. Nice leadership by the manager.
And speaking of the manager, why does he even have Fielder in the game in the ninth inning of a 17-4 embarrassment?
This isn't the first time Fielder has gone crazy.
Major League Baseball is investigating. That means fines and/or suspensions. Fielder, who is having a nice season, wasn't thinking about his teammates when he went berserk. He deserves punishment.
How dare angry constituents get angry!
Now we know why liberal (Socialist) Congressional Democrats so desperately wanted to pass government health care before:
A) Anyone read the bill
B) The August recess
They did not want to face the wrath of the voters, the people they work for. They're hearing an absolute earful from constituents back home at their "listening sessions." The left is stunned that Democrats pushing a complete overhaul of America's health care system actually are supposed to "listen" at "listening sessions," especially if it means hearing what they don't want to hear.
Americans who hate seeing the
Yes, they're angry. Yes, they're mad. Imagine that.
To be sure, there has been some hollering and yelling. How dare constituents speak their minds to their Congressmen! How dare they stand up against a complete government takeover of health care! How dare these people who actually like their health care plans and want to keep them talk that way to a United States Congressman!
Lefties just can't come to grips with the fact that not everyone genuflects at the thought of more government control. Not everyone has sipped the Obama Kool-Aid.
Obviously, these "mobs" of people with day jobs who pay taxes on top of taxes who have the audacity to show up at "listening sessions" and not treat them like ice cream socials have all been orchestrated or affected by:
Talk radio
The right wing conspiracy
Ronald Reagan
El Nino
The left apparently has forgotten that the Community organizer-in-Chief that they worship told supporters in Elko, Nevada last year the following:
"I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face."
Get in their face.
Argue with them.
Get in their face.
Guerilla warfare is fine as long as it's the flaky wackos on the left tossing the bombs.
What do these Democrats think, that constituents are going to show up at these sessions like lemmings, quietly nod their heads, and blindly accept anything fed to them?
High tea it ain't. Thank goodness.
Give 'em hell!
Earth to Franklin City Hall: HELLO, we've got a great big budget shortfall!
I recently blogged that there doesn't seem to be any sense of urgency at Franklin City Hall about the $1.8 million budget shortfall announced by Mayor Tom Taylor in June.
Here's what has happened since then:
1) The budget shortfall for this year in the city of
2) Even so, there still isn't any sense of urgency at City Hall.
Case in point: This week's Franklin Common Council meeting.
FranklinNOW reports that the meeting had some debate about replacing an eight-year-old ambulance that has an odometer reading of 99,000 miles.
Aldermen Steve Olson, Lyle Sohns and Ken Skowronski, according to FranklinNOW "said while they are strong supporters of the police and fire departments, the city should try to get more mileage out of the ambulance due to the tough economic times. 'At some point you have to say no' to more spending, Olson said."
Everyone acknowledges the importance of ambulances. But when you're $2.5 million in the hole right now and another $1.4 million in the hole projected for next year, you, as the Rolling Stones professed, can't always get what you want.
Olson, Sohns, and Skowronski made the right move, voting against purchasing a new ambulance. Aldermen Steve (I am so a conservative, really I am!) Taylor, Kristen Wilhelm, and Tim Solomon voted for the purchase. Apparently the attitude is, we'll buy now and worry about it, and our deficit, later.
Mayor Tom Taylor broke the 3-3 tie and voted in favor of buying the ambulance.
Our city leaders voted to INCREASE SPENDING when the budget shortfall for a $20-million city budget is $2.5 million.
Is it any wonder
When personnel, i.e., real living, breathing city workers have to be told they're losing their jobs, how important will that new ambulance look to those folks?

Gas Pains
Tom grew up in Milwaukee, bartended in Wauwatosa in the '70s and moved here in 1984.
Commentary, observations and musings about the outdoors, life in general and maybe Tosa politics and personalities will be the order of the day. He savors a lively debate as much as terrific cooking.
Forest Exploration Center - A Seedling Emerges
I'd like to think of this project like the propagation of a tree.
Sometimes a seed or a nut falls to the ground. Or is passed from the digestive tract of a bird. Maybe a squirrel buries and forgets it. The seed germinates and sends a shoot upwards towards the light filtering through the forest canopy. If it is lucky, that sprout will survive predation by a hungry rodent. As it reaches further for the sun it might survive a browsing whitetail deer. Recent decades might find it engaged in a battle-to-the-death with competition from invasive species crowding it out for sunlight, water and nutrients. With more luck, and within a few years, that seedling will grow to a sapling. Against enormous odds and over many years it might just survive to become a dominant tree in the forest - and be threatened now by an invasive insect from Asia. Should it survive all of this it will release its progeny to repeat the process all over again.
Making a List and Checking it Twice
By now most of you are aware that lists of those who have signed the petition to recall Governor Scott Walker can be easily accessed on the web. As clunky as they are you can at least sort by ZIP code. Being the naturally curious guy that I am I downloaded several ZIP codes into an excel file for ease of sorting and scrutiny. And I saved them - so I can check them twice. The 53213 file has 4188 lines of data representing neighbors of mine that have signed the petition. A good number of them I am personally acquainted with.
If you were to peruse the list you won't find my name. That's because I have any number of personal reasons not to sign a recall petition. I also know of individuals residing in ZIP code 53213 who in-fact signed a petition yet do not appear on the list. Such is the result of sloppy data entry. The list is flawed.
Friday Morning Music
Crank-up the volume on your office workstation, light yourself a cigarette and bring on the weekend.
Echo and the Bunnymen....
Divided We Stand
I had a chat with my state senator recently and among other things she asked me to share my opinion about the mining bill. I offered that mining has been part of the economy and culture of the iron range for as long as it's been settled. If a mining bill could be passed that adequately addressed environmental and tribal concerns I had no problem with it. We could use the jobs.
In the intervening month the mining bill appears to have died. A victim of legislative intransigence. Will there be a demonstration of executive leadership to resuscitate the bill? That's anybody's guess.
Friday Morning St. Paddy's Day
Did you know that in recent years Ireland has been stricken with a shortage of shamrocks?
That's right. Experts blame a number of exceedingly harsh and consecutive winters along with a decline in the traditional hay meadows for a scarcity of Trifolium dubium, the wild-growing, three-leaf clover that botanists consider the official shamrock.
Spring Has Sprung
It is the Spring Equinox today.
I've been hanging at the farm for a spell. And reveling in the return of the migratory song birds, the spring peeper chorus and thoughts of gardening. When I take the dogs out at night there is the peenting of the woodcock as they perform their sky dance mating ritual in the night heavens.
Friday Morning Little Sister
A few of you have inquired about about my other dog - Sister. AKA the Chick Magnet or Blonde Ambition. Almost three months ago she underwent a serious surgery to correct a deformity in her right forearm.
She has been sporting an external fixator ever since. Four steel rings and sixteen pins to keep the bones in alignment as they knit. the Million Dollar Dog has been a real champ through all of this. I know if I had to wear a medical appliance that looked like a medieval torture device I would be grumpy. Not her. She's her good-natured self.
Guess the Critter
Only a month ago I took these photos of bird tracks in the snow.

Part of the Obama administration's counter-radicalization strategy released yesterday obliquely references the controversy over anti-Muslim terrorism "experts" who have received generous federal grants for Islamophobic "training" of local law enforcement:
Nick Sementelli flags the testimony of Peter Neumann, director of the International Center for the Study of Radicalization and Political Violence at King's College in London, to Representative Sue Myrick's subcommittee hearing on domestic radicalization in the U.S. Myrick, as Sementelli points out, is a big believer in the stealth jihad conspiracy theory, so imagine her disappointment when Neumann said this:
Kevin Drum makes the case:
What's more, Obama also won passage during his first two years of a stimulus bill, a landmark healthcare bill that Democrats had been trying to pass for the better part of a century, a financial reform bill, and much needed reform of student loans. And more: a firm end to the Bush torture regime, the Lily Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, a hate crimes bill, a successful rescue of the American car industry, and resuscitation of the NLRB. Oh, and he killed Osama bin Laden too.
Not to be outdone by Rick Perry, Ben Smith reports that former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney has signed the National Organization for Marriage's pledge to "defend marriage" by supporting a constitutional amendment to ban marriage equality (via Igor Volsky):
The American Family Association's Bryan Fischer is infamous among liberals for his views on race and gay rights, and for being someone GOP presidential hopefuls go to to shore up their social conservative bonafides. The New York Times, reporting on Fischer, shows the limits of faux objectivity:
The hidden history of ALEC and prison labor.
Yearning for the old George Will.
The abortion wars come to Maryland.
Why are American evangelicals so afraid of Arab democracy?
Tanya Somanader looks at the "Wigger Day" lawsuit:
Nicholas Mendoza looks at why the Obama administration has relied on arguments that the federal government has the authority to set immigration policy instead of challenging immigration laws on racial profiling grounds:
The White House released its strategy for countering violent extremism today, and while the use of that particular phrase may provoke howls of "political correctness" from conservatives, the strategy identifies "al-Qa'ida and its affiliates and adherents represent the preeminent terrorist threat to our country." The strategy also emphasizes the importance of local actors in resisting and identifying extremism, and contains an implicit rebuke to Republicans singling out the Muslim community as being full of potential subversives:
Glenn Beck loses his cookies over the idea of a blatino Spider-Man, whom he says "looks just like President Obama."
Marie Diamond flags Iowa Representative Steve King's panic over the possibility that increased access to contraception could lead to the end of America:
They've called it preventative medicine. Preventative medicine. Well if you applied that preventative medicine universally what you end up with is you've prevented a generation. Preventing babies from being born is not medicine. That's not— that's not constructive to our culture and our civilization. If we let our birth rate get down below replacement rate we're a dying civilization.
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney is taking legal advice from Robert Bork, the failed conservative nominee to the Supreme Court who says things like this about the 1964 Civil Rights Act:
The principle of such legislation is that if I find your behavior ugly by my standards, moral or aesthetic, and if you prove stubborn about adopting my view of the situation, I am justified in having the state coerce you into more righteous paths. That is itself a principle of unsurpassed ugliness.
The trial of former Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak began today. Mubarak is being tried in Egypt's regular court system, despite the existence of an alternate, military court system set up by his 1981 emergency law. Unlike the thousands of protesters who have since been tried in the military system, Mubarak will be getting a fair trial.
Newt Gingrich doesn't read Paul Krugman.
Not so many liberals.
The sorry story of Central Falls, Rhode Island.
The top five homophobic arguments in Boehner's DOMA briefs.
Ben Smith posts an e-mail from a "senior Democrat" who says liberals have long been fighting an uphill battle ideologically:
We didn't lose this fight, Barack Obama was in law school when this fight was lost.
The role of Democrats should not be to convince people that government is great, it should be to help people reach their potential -- and government is a tool to do that. There has been a strain of skepticism about the government in the American character since the founding, only the New Deal changed that significantly; but we have been returning to the norm ever since then.

Almost nowhere else is there such a tight link between class and opinions about cutting government.
For the GOP, there's no real benefit in admitting Obamacare is working.
Liberals are exasperated with conservatives' unwillingness to acknowledge fact about health care, and other things. But they'd better get used to it.

A quick-hit edition for the end of the week:
Dr. Warren Selman, neurosurgeon-in-chief at University Hospitals and medical director of Surgical Theater, explains how the company's software enables doctors to practice on 3-D images of their patients' brains while supervised remotely by other surgeons. For instance, images of brain aneurisms can be rotated to enable surgeons to determine the best course of action.The CNN piece notes that Surgical Theater's launch stems from a chance encounter Dr. Selman had in a coffee shop with company co-founders Moty Avisar and Alon Geri, two former Israeli Air Force officers. The story likens Surgical Theater's technology to flight simulators that help pilots practice critical missions.Dr. Daniel Barrow, a neurosurgeon at Emory University in Atlanta, is impressed by the Surgical Theater technology. "Every time I've seen it, it gets better and better," he says.

Dosing pump By Lyle on 12/21/10 Lyle would recommend this product to a friend Don't know how I went so long without one. These make life so much easier. Very accurate. I have more time to spend with the tank. Value and Performance By craig on 11/25/10 craig would recommend this product to a friend This is a very easy pump to setup. The pump is super quite and 1.1mL per minute flow rate makes it ideal for automating 2 Part dosing. Don't forget a timer Eco Plus Dual Digital Timer is a good one. fantastic quality By rroselavy on 11/7/10 rroselavy would recommend this product to a friend I'm impressed with the build quality of these Italian made dosers. Very solid casings and well thought out mounting brackets and tube connectors. Installation was super easy - two pilot holes per pump and screw on the bracket...no shelf required. The enclosed tubing, both hard and soft vinyl, is a nice touch. They run very quietly. They make a low noise, but I cannot hear them when running inside my enclosed stand. I also appreciate that there are no built in electronics in these dosers. My intuition tells me that they will be more reliable over the long haul with one less thing to break. I only have one criticism: The beakers that are included for calibration are not ruled finely enough for a 10 minute test. I ended up using a 50ml graduated cylinder I had which was far more accurate. Unfortunately, I timed my purchase poorly. I could have got free shipping and 1000 rewards points per pump if I had waited one more week. Could have saved $29!!! Arrggh - I HATE when that happens.... Works Great By DAN on 10/31/10 DAN would recommend this product to a friend Been using 3 of these on an aquarium controller for the past 4 months without fail. It comes with more than enough tubing for an average install and mounting hardware for a clean, and easy install. I only wish it also came with .5" screws to mount on a cabinet wall but that's what the hardware stores are for. i'll probably be getting another one for trace element dosing in the near future. GERAT PUMP !!! By KDS on 10/9/10 KDS would recommend this product to a friend excellent dosing pump . very accurate,nice solid construction,easy setup. i use these pumps to dose BRS ALK&CAL supplements.together an excellent combo.8 months running so far and not a problem Love them By Greg on 10/9/10 Greg would recommend this product to a friend I have 2 BRS dosers that I use to dose Alk and CA. Combined with my controller, these pumps are awesome. I dose for 1 min out of every hour throughout the day to keep my levels constant. Easy to setup and quick mounting. This Doser Does the Trick By John on 9/27/10 John would recommend this product to a friend Reliable and quiet. This doser does all they promise. I highly recommend. I have been using it for over six months now without incident. Goes great with a reef keeper! make two part dosing an after thought By Matthias on 9/23/10 Matthias would recommend this product to a friend Am using two of these to supplement ca and alk. They are very precise, quiet, and easy to setup. Have made my life so much easier not having to manually dose two part. great pump By steve on 8/25/10 steve would recommend this product to a friend haven't had a single problem for it. i set it up to a timer for my calcuim and it now stays at 450 +- 10. you also can't hear it at all, very nice pump. Awesome By Todd on 8/18/10 Todd would recommend this product to a friend Like everyone else, I wish I would have seen the value in this sooner. I love not having to think/worry about dosing every day. I use it in combination with a controller to keep my pH on the money all day and night. Get the two part kit here and two of these pumps, you will not regret the purchase! Well made pump By Robert Davies on 7/31/10 Robert Davies would recommend this product to a friend I have been wanting this for my reef Aquarium for a long time and waited for them ti go on sale to get them,well made item and takes a load of my mind to keep up with maintenance.....I will get more as I have more than one reef tank... Love this pump! By Kevin on 7/19/10 Kevin would recommend this product to a friend I own much more expensive dosing pumps and the BRS is my favorite. I love the ease of set-up and operation. Calibrate it, plug it into a timer and dose as little as 1 ml to whatever amount you may need. I use them to dose 2 part, magnesium and potassium iodide. Must have!! By Dave3112 on 7/8/10 Dave3112 would recommend this product to a friend I travel for extended times for my employer and I have recently started using the BRS 2 part formula. My wife does a great job in taking care of the regular maintenance while I am gone but she found it difficult to leave home for more than a couple of days in order to stay on top of things with our tanks. So I looked for a way to automate things for her. I buy most of my reef supplies from BRS so I looked there and found these dosers. They are the best equiptment purchase I have made since I went to MH lighting! Don't let your tank go without these! Super simple to set up! Consistent doser By Kevin Savage on 4/23/10 Kevin Savage would recommend this product to a friend Excellent dosing pump. I would like to see a timer to operate these pumps on your site. Thanks! Awesome doser By shawn hunter on 4/13/10 shawn hunter would recommend this product to a friend Got my pump and i love it, talk about being rock solid, this unit pumps the same amount every time it turns on.. Great pump By Josh on 3/11/10 Josh would recommend this product to a friend Really easy install and works great with two part. Wonderful Dosing Pumps! By Ryan S on 2/6/10 Ryan S would recommend this product to a friend Excellent quality pumps. Setup was a breeze, and they work like a charm. Totally worth the cost. I highly recommend them! Makes life simple By CJD on 12/27/09 CJD would recommend this product to a friend Got a few of these for my 2-part and magnesium. My controller doses just a little bit every hour rather than all at once. No more spikes from adding all at once each day. Great Piece By Dustin on 12/6/09 Dustin would recommend this product to a friend Picked up two of these for 2-part dosing. Accurate and makes my tank more stable with less maintenance. Great dosing pumps! By James on 11/29/09 James would recommend this product to a friend I use these pumps to dose my two part solutions. The pumps work great!

Artificial Sweeteners Might Help Keep Pounds Off But…Posted: Monday, July 16, 2012
But an extensive literature search found sketchy, limited, and often contradictory evidence, researchers concluded in Circulation: Journal of the American Heart Association and Diabetes Care.
Lead author Christopher Gardner, PhD, of Stanford University in Palo Alto California, stated that, "Smart use of non-nutritive sweeteners could help you reduce added sugars in your diet, therefore lowering the number of calories you eat."
That reduction "could help you attain and maintain a healthy body weight, and thereby lower your risk of heart disease and diabetes," Gardner said in a statement.
But any beneficial effects, the researchers noted, could be undone if people "compensate" for the calorie cuts by eating more high-calorie foods – drinking a diet soda, for example, and then having an extra piece of cake later.
A high intake of dietary sugars has been shown to contribute to cardiovascular disease and obesity, which can lead to the development of diabetes. In 2009, the American Heart Association recommended a population-wide cutback in added sugars in foods, urging that women eat no more than 100 calories a day and men no more than 150 calories daily of added sugars.
For this analysis, the researchers looked at studies of the non-nutritive sweeteners aspartame, acesulfame-K, neotame, saccharin, sucralose, and stevia.
Few studies have looked directly at whether non-nutritive sweeteners can replace added sugars in the diet, the researchers found, although there are data about their effects on such things as obesity and cardiovascular disease.
But those data are inconclusive. In several studies, use of the substances was associated with unwanted outcomes, such as obesity, presumably because of reverse causation – those using the sweeteners were doing so because they already were overweight.
According to co-author Diane Reader, RD, of the International Diabetes Center in Minneapolis, MN, "On the other hand, some people might clearly benefit from drinks and foods that replace sugar with non-nutritive sweeteners." "For example, soft drinks sweetened with non-nutritive sweeteners do not increase blood glucose levels, and thus can provide a sweet option for those with diabetes." But she cautioned that "just because a food product includes a non-nutritive sweetener" does not mean that it is healthy.
Reader added that non-nutritive sweeteners can be an important part of controlling carbohydrate intake in order to manage weight and control diabetes.
The researchers noted that the effect of non-nutritive sweeteners has to be considered in the context of the overall diet.
"Strategies for reducing calories and added sugars also involves choosing foods which have no added sugars or non-nutritive sweeteners – such as vegetables, fruits, high-fiber whole grains, and non- or low-fat dairy," Gardner said

nice 1-day prep sprint triple
The marks came at very high altitude (1777m), which helps, but impressive sprint triple for Colorado prep Ana Holland on Saturday: 11.51/23.29(HSL)/53.58
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Didn't Robin Reynolds do something similar her freshman year?
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
That's still about 11.6, 23.6, and sub-54 at sea level when corrected (I saw 23.29). That's not bad at all.

100 - lost by .02 to Marybeth Sant, wind = 0.3
200 - yes, 23.29 (although T&FN's leader list currently has 23.23?), wind = 1.6

Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Eh. That's more than 2000 feet lower than Mexico City.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
I do think that being at altitude is an advantage for sprinters, jumpers, hurdlers and relay runners (but maybe not distance runners) and when the Liberty Bell Invitational was run last Friday and Saturday the temperatures were in the 70's and 80's but as I look out of my window and see it snowing which it has been for the past 6 hours and recollecting how we are on our sixth straight week of at least some snow falling during part of the week (2 weeks ago it snowed for 3 consecutive days with the low temperature that week being 7 whole degrees above zero) Ana Holland and the rest of the Colorado high school girls performances of note should all be commended for dealing with training in adverse conditions. Not to say that other parts of the country haven't had to deal with the weather as well but 2 number 2's and a number 1 in the national high school girls sprint rankings along with a number 2 in the 1500 is nothing short of incredible from where I sit looking out of my window as the snow keeps falling.
Also what might be good for the goose seems to also be good for the gander. Check out the results of the Don Gatewood Invitational at the Evie Dennis Multi-Purpose Field in Northeast Denver, CO where the powerhouse high school track team from Chandler, AZ is said to be perfomning this weekend, although going from 90+ to 55 degrees farenheit might make for an interesting adjustment.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Which, if I remember correctly, you thought 'ruined' T&F afterwards.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
All these amazing Colorado sprint times. Just like Jeremy Rankin (07-09 Colorado prep) has gone to be an amazing sprinter outside of Colorado. Not! When he raced Ryan Bailey back at his peak in Albuquerque at the Great SW race (altitude) he was beaten badly and was nearly a half second slower than when he was in Colorado! Winds can be much more in HS than they are reported to be so I just never trust most Colorado times due to both wind and altitude.
Not to diminish some outstanding young talent being discussed but I hate seeing athletes get marks that they can't hit anywhere else as it leaves them frustrated when they run slower even if it potentially is a better effort.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Yes, for the altitude effect - it took Allyson Felix years to match her end-of-high school 22.11 at Mexico City. A nuber of people used that mark to indicate that she had not made progress.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Just like the thousands of wondrous high school hand-timed sprint performances that ruined many a sprinter's experience.
"Tommy ran a 10.24 at the Flair County Championships. I know 'cause I timed 'em!" said Tommy's mom.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
No, if anything ruined anything, it was the 80s.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Another CO high school leader with altitude, Marybeth Sant 11.38 (1.2) at 1525m altitude yesterday. Didn't see Ana Holland in the results for this meet.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
This latest result from Sant - the 11.32 is exactly what I am citing. Two weeks ago at Hayward Field with similar win she ran 11.80 with warm temps as well. We are vastly under rating the effects of altitude on times in the sprints. Sant is a talented sprinter headed to Oregon next year but is noooooo where near a 11.32 sprinter.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
I fell like I am being bated here but I'll dive in anyway.
Well your statement that Marybeth Sant is nowhere near being an 11.32 sprinter is true in that she only ran 11.38 with a +1.2 wind reading at the St. Vrain Invitational track meet in Longmont, CO on Friday May 3rd. But my question to you is this; Marybeth was born in Colorado and has lived here her entire life, exactly what is she and every other sprinter in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Wyoming and parts of Arizona and Texas supposed to do about having to run at altitude, move? Or maybe not run so fast thus sparking the disbelief of the occasional Track & Field News Bulleting Board poster.
But I'll let you decide for yourself. Here are the 2 races in question and either the other girls in the two races are in on the hoax and are just holding back so that Marybeth can look good or maybe she is just that fast at altitude?
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
It is just that a 11.32 at 5000 feet is about the same as a 11.5x, but the headline number stays 11.32, and that is misleading.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Not even 11.5. More like 11.7. I am of the believe that altitude has more of an impact than the TFN charts grant it. Especially in the area of slower marks compared to elites. A girl that is running 2 seconds slower than men's WR has more of an impact on her race than say Bolt would on same track. Additionally the thinner air makes fatigue factor easier to negotiate as someone like a talented HS girl would face late in a 200 or 400 especially and thus get a bigger boost than an elite male would. That's been my experience in following high altitude HS prep marks for past 15 years out of Colorado and a few other high altitude states. She is a talented sprinter but shouldn't be hailed as if she were running these times at sea-level.
I saw a a HS junior from Seattle area, Hannah Cunliffe ran a nice virtual sea-level double in a collegiate meet at Cal in the Brutus Hamilton meet last week - 11.67 (0.5) and 23.85 (2.0) and in my mind is a superior sprinter than Sant but doesn't have the glitzy altitude marks.

Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Assuming a 0.4 second effect for a mere 1500m is rather over the top, it seems to me. That would imply that Mexico City should have a differential of 0.8. While the stronger men might have a bit smaller a differential, we did not see 9.4 marks in '68. Furthermore, most of that differential would be at the high-end speed, where wind resistance, rather than acceleration, is the key action 'resisting' force and that would imply long jump and triple jump marks that are really spectacular, and aside from Beamon's somewhat dubious 8.90 (wind stronger than 2.0), there are not many great marks at high elevation.
Another implication is that women at Mexico City would get a differential of as much as 1.6 seconds - AF's 22.11 -> 23.75. Also, if the differential was that much different you would see a lot of college sprinters getting marks at altitude because the correction factor used by the NCAA would be way too small. Instead, you see relatively few altitude marks.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
You mean people like Evans and James who are still in the all-time top 10 after 40 years, and Mennea after 30, aren't represented of the altitude phenomenon?
The only reason the all-time lists aren't dominated by such marks (in the affected events) is the paucity of major meets run at super-high altitude. If Mexico City had a DL every year you'd see no end of holy-shit marks.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
Yes, but the posited effect of 0.4/100m at 5000 would imply a delta of (at least, since 400 is faster than girl 100s) 0.40 x 2 x 4 = 3.2 seconds, and we would likely be chasing 42s from those Games. Just doing 0.10 for a differential gives a boost of 0.10 x 2 x 4 = 0.80 and that value seems realistic given that they were 45-flat kind of guys racing at their absolute peaks (and the 4x400 was very good, but not 2:4x).
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
What would Bolt run at such an altitude if in championship race? Sub 9.25 especially if the track were of modern elite meet quality.
I don't claim to know an exact formula however my own studies of these times compared to athletes performing at sea-level come out about .35 to .4 slower has proven to be consistent athlete after athlete.
As for impact on 400's I do think at some point it is negated as well the slower the runner due to the oxygen levels but not venturing into all the science involved to determine that.
I also have often wondered the impact of training at faster speeds when doing top end speed type training at high altitude as Colorado HS athletes would do (at least elite HS level ones would) to impact improved performance. This training I believe plays role in current high performance of some of the Colorado athletes but again hard to define impact. Should sprinters have high altitude training phases like distance runners? When a sprinter like Sant comes to Oregon we will have an opportunity to study her progression but there are too many variables to know for certain the impact.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
The Big Gold Book gives a value of over 9.50 -- an adjustment of 0.75 for Mexico City and JRM's calculator gives a similar adjustment (~0.07). You are proposing adjustments of almost five times as much; that adjustment is far away from any other factor I have ever seen. Even gh, who thinks that the adjustment factors understate the effect does not think that the error is 400% -- I would guess that he would say that it is no more than double the 0.07 value. If you limit the elevation to the value that started this discussion you get an effect of .48% rather than 0.7+%; Nothing remotely close to the 3.3% you are suggesting.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
If the altitude effect is as great as is being argued in this thread why are there not more times on the all time lists run at altitude?
If you look at the top 10 list for high school girls you see Aleisha Latimer and Ashley Owens both of whom resided in Colorado Springs, CO while in high school which sits at roughly 1800 meters above sea level. Yet both of the times that qualified Aleisha and Ashley for the list were run at sea level.
Why did they not run faster times in the 100 meter dash while in Colorado then they were able to run at sea level?
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
I am sorry Sprintdoc, but what you are saying is absolutely ridiculous! So ridiculous that I created an account just to respond to you. You have absolutely no data backing up what you are saying and no logic, and the sad thing is you are being so critical of kids.
First of all Marybeth made it to the USA Indoor Championship FINALS and ran 7.36! Competing against pros!
She won Simplot the last two years, beating Hannah in 2012, and ran 7.42. She ran 11.86 last year in NC into a .4 headwind at sea level. (Her beast was 11.65 with a +1.3 w in CO) That's not much of a difference. Her 11.8 this year at Oregon was her 2nd 100m of the year. She is extremely well trained and has a ton of experience.
Furthermore, I grew up in CO and then went to college and ran in California. I can tell you that there was never ever a noticeable difference in my performance at Sea level vs. altitude! I ran the 60m up at UW and then went and had what I felt like was a better race in NM at Altitude and ran .02 slower. I have had good and bad races at both altitude and sea level. To say and 11.38 is really an 11.7 bc of altitude is absurd! You show extreme biases, and clearly have a preconceived notion that there aren't good sprinters in CO. When someone in Texas runs a 10.low no one freaks out but when someone from CO does its bc of altitude?? You clearly don't understand the complexities of the sport and that there are a LOT of other factors that effect peoples performances.
In terms of Jeremy Rankin, I watched him run from the time he was in 8th grade till now. He is a truly talented kid, but has struggled with some severe injuries and bad coaches that really did not help him. You also fail to mention when he went to NY and beat Rynell Parsons and YOHAN BLAKE at SEA LEVEL!!!
101st Millrose Games
Event 29 Boys 60 Meter Dash Junior
1 Jeremy Rankin USA 6.68
2 Rynell Parson USA 6.73
3 Yohan Blake JAM 6.75
Yohan has great coaches, a great support system, great weather, great training partners and great drugs. Jeremy hasn't had a consistent coach, he has moved 3 times and had 3 serious injuries in the last 5 seasons.
Your talking about kids so keep it positive man. And do some more research before you say ridiculous stuff.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
He comes to the conclusion, or he is of the opinion, the the difference in running times are so large as to be not credible just using common sense. If he is correct you would see a higher proportion of sprint best at modest altitudes, not only Tucson, but even Atlanta would probably be a bit different than sea level.
Further, I think I did these calculations recently in response to his claims that we would be getting huge gains made (they would have just possibly broken the next second barrier in Mexico City (1968). The reasoning seems to be based on the cases he knows. But there is almost certainly selection bias in those cases because he notices them and then does some calculations. However, he notices them because they are the ones that show big effects not the null or little benefit results.
Also, the reduction in air drag would imply that the offsetting effects of reduced resistance and the more difficult getting O2 in would not be off setting but that there would be a clear benefit helping 800 times. I know of no data (not anecdotes) showing such a systematic effect.
Re: nice 1-day prep sprint triple
That's easy to answer: because there are, relatively speaking, so few races run at altitude. And only very-very rarely in the top-end championship/invitational meets that provide the bulk of the fast times.

Chapter Abstracts
Chapter abstracts are short descriptions of events that occur in each chapter. They highlight major plot events and detail the important relationships and characteristics of characters and objects. The Chapter Abstracts can be used to review what the students have read, or to prepare the students for what they will read. Hand the abstracts out in class as a study guide, or use them as a "key" for a class discussion. They are relatively brief, but can serve to be an excellent refresher of the text for either a student or teacher.
Chapter 1 Abstract

This product worked flawlessly the very first time I used it. It couldn't have been easier to work with.
Good quality and accurate. Will last me a lifetime
It's good. Remember to also order a Peghole Bushing Reamer (2061 to 2065)
to get the perfect fit.
Don't drill without one!
Well worth the price to accurately drill tuner holes. Used a hand drill and the tight tolerance of the jig holes forces the drill bit to go in straight.
There is really no point in trying to do without this one if you want smooth tuner action and repeatability.
This nice little guide block and pin system really works well. It is critical however to take the time to square your drill press stage to the drill bit in both the X and Y coordinates or some unintended fixture machining will occur.

Communities Win with Fair Trade: 3 Stories
"I love my floor mat woven from discarded plastic bottles! It adds a colorful, year-round accent to my deck, and makes the seating area seem like a cozy oasis. It is impervious to the elements, and looks great rain or shine! The fact that it can be hosed down for easy cleaning is an added bonus. This wonderful, durable product supports Fair Trade while finding a good use for those plastic bottles, which might otherwise find their way into the landfill." - Claudia Bonser
As seen in the November 22, 2007 San Francisco Examiner and the November 2007 Good Housekeeping
Product Q&A
Ask your questions. Share your answers.
How fireproof is the rug?
Is the rug water permeable? I need the water to run through the rug and off the deck, not bead up and weigh the deck down.
Also, vibrant colors haven't faded a bit in the bright southern facing Colorado sun!
As far as your concern re. your deck, my patio is cement with no drainage and yet i have never had any issues with it retaining water in any way.
Are you using this indoors or out? my relative has 2 of the smaller ones on her back patio and has laid on straight and another at a diagonal and it looks and works great. or you could purcase the larger one and try tucking one end under itself on one end. these rugs are rugged and soft, yet flat, so both of these may be optopns for you.

Smith said, "The Kingdom of God is a Kingdom of freedom; the gospel of the Son of God is the gospel of liberty." Men of God, both ancient and modern, have spoken on this issue repeatedly. This book analyzes what liberty is and how it applies to government.
