I've had this knife a little less than two days, but I wanted to share some impressions.
Tom McLean (Lefty) provided the basic idea to Butch, who then translated the idea into a knife. Originally, the blade was supposed to range between 185 and 195 mm. The knife I have is 202 mm on the edge (210 mm from handle to tip).
Tom intended it to be a long and tall petty, one that could be used on a board. This style knife is often referred to as a "line knife", and that's how I'll refer to it.
Some measurements of the one I have:
Weight: 151 grams.
Overall length: 320 mm, blade 210 mm, handle 110 mm.
Height at heel: 39 mm.
Spine at handle: 2.90 mm.
Spine halfway to tip: 2.85 mm.
Spine 1 cm from tip: 0.85 mm.
The handle material is stabilized Buckeye burl, with three stainless pins. The blade, as Tom has said, is Carpenter CTS XHP @ 61 - 62 HRC. It doesn't have much distal taper, and is fairly stiff with little if nay flex.
Here are some "beauty" shots:
How does it compare to what is usually referred to as a "line knife"? Here are some comparison photos of the Harner against a 21 cm Hiromoto G3 sujihiki and a 24 cm Misono Swedish sujihiki. I didn't have a 21 cm wa-petty to compare it to.
Keep in mind that I have only had this knife for a little over a day and a half, but I have used it instead of my usual 24 cm gyuto for vegetable prep and have not felt disadvantaged in any way. As a slicer, it worked very well with both raw and cooked protein.
I'll report on edge retention and sharpening in the future.
Thanks to Tom and Butch!

Allen/Democrat photo Matthew Roaf, far right, sits in Rochester Circuit Court before his arraignment Tuesday morning on charges of robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.
ROCHESTER — Tuesday morning, the third suspect in a shooting incident on Meetinghouse Hill Road in Farmington reported last month was arraigned in Rochester Circuit Court.Officials say they will not comment on the case so as not to compromise their ongoing investigation, though it has been revealed that both a Lebanon, Maine, man, and a Somersworth man were shot by the alleged victim in the incident at the Farmington residence. Matthew T. Roaf, 22, of 33 Second St., Lebanon, Maine, did not enter a plea before the court because he is charged with felony-level charges for robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery. Following a probable cause hearing at the district level, if probable cause is found to proceed with the charges, Roaf's case will be bound over to Strafford County Superior Court in Dover. He was previously released on $100,000 personal recognizance bail after turning himself into authorities.The two other suspects in this case — Stephen Roy, 24, of Lords Court, Somersworth, and Joshua Dionne, 27, of Market Street, North Berwick, Maine — have each waived their probable cause hearings and now await hearings before superior court.
Matthew Roaf
At an arraignment for Roy, officials said the charges are Class A felonies, given the nature of the alleged crimes.

I have split feelings on this...I was always a Miles fan. I thought he was one of the more underrated bench players we had in recent memory (remember who scored the 2 runs on the 2 hits by David Eckstein in the '06 World Series that basically clinched him the World Series MVP? Aaron Miles). I liked his versatility, and he was a helluva relief pitcher...haha.
Anyway, he's a Cub now. They signed him at 2 years, almost $5 million...which I think is a bit steep. Oh well, So Taguchi in '07 and Aaron Miles in '08...two of the better bench players the Cards have had in awhile, gone in back to back offseasons.

Strep throat is a disease that causes a sore throat (pharyngitis). It is an infection with a germ called Group A Streptococcus bacteria.
Pharyngitis - streptococcal; Streptococcal pharyngitis; Tonsillitis-strep
Strep throat is most common in children between ages 5 and 15, although anyone can get it.
Strep throat is spread by person-to-person contact with fluids from the nose or saliva. It commonly spreads among family or household members.
Symptoms appear about 2 to 5 days after coming in contact with the strep germ. They may be mild or severe.
Common symptoms include:
Other symptoms may include:
Some strains of strep throat can lead to a scarlet fever-like rash . The rash first appears on the neck and chest. It may then spreads over the body. The rash may feel rough like sandpaper.
The same germ that causes strep throat may also cause symptoms of a sinus infection or an ear infection
Many other causes of sore throat may have the same symptoms. Your health care provider must do a test to diagnose strep throat and decide whether to prescribe antibiotics.
A rapid strep test can be done in most health care provider offices. However, the test may be negative, even if strep is present.
If the rapid strep test is negative and your health care provider still suspects that the strep bacteria is causing the sore throat, a throat swab can be tested (cultured) to see if strep grows from it. Results will take 1 to 2 days.
Most sore throats are caused by viruses, not bacteria.
Sore throats should be treated with antibiotics only if the strep test is positive. Antibiotics are taken to prevent rare but more serious health problems, such as rheumatic fever.
Penicillin or amoxicillin are most often the first drugs tried. Antibiotics should be taken for 10 days, even though symptoms are often gone within a few days.
The following tips may help your sore throat feel better:
Symptoms of strep throat usually get better in about 1 week. Untreated, strep can lead to serious complications.
In rare cases, strep throat can lead to rheumatic fever if it is not treated. Strep throat may also cause a rare kidney complication called post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis .
Other complications may include:
Call if you or your child develops the symptoms of strep throat. Also, call if symptoms do not get better within 24 - 48 hours of starting treatment.
Most people with strep can spread the infection to others until they have been on antibiotics for 24 - 48 hours. They should stay home from school, daycare, or work until they have been on antibiotics for at least a day.
Get a new toothbrush after two or three days, but before finishing the antibiotics. Otherwise, the bacteria can live on the toothbrush and re-infect you when the antibiotics are done. Also, keep your family's toothbrushes and utensils separate, unless they have been washed.
If repeated cases of strep still occur in a family, you might check to see if someone is a strep carrier. Carriers have strep in their throats, but the bacteria do not make them sick. Sometimes, treating them can prevent others from getting strep throat.

Scale and mass helped these five modern townhomes play nice with the existing structures in a Memphis arts district.

Each townhome has a private balcony that addresses the street.

Presented with a former parking lot on the edge of a historic arts district, Archimania let context and site be its guide. The result is this five-unit, live/work townhouse project highlighted by polished concrete masonry blocks, metal bays, and glass storefronts that merge with the existing architecture of the industrial buildings in the district. Intended for live/work use, each three-level home is marked by bays and front-loaded balconies that address the street. "I like the way they stand out with the façade," one judge commented.

Rated 5 out of 5 by EnergyExpert The yoga really helps
I bought this DVD specifically for the yoga. It really helps my body to calm down so that I sleep well. I had problems with insomnia but this DVD has helped a lot.
December 4, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by drf1 a little disappointing
The yoga section was good but other than that not much useful information. The doctors on the dvd explained sleep, but didn't really talk about techniques to help sleep better. The nutrition section contained no specific suggestions for insomnia.

As the economic crisis deepens, contradictions apparently far removed or safely buried rise to the surface again: the conflict between capital and labour, the polarization of wealth and poverty, the wretchedness of daily life and the uncertainty of survival, inter-imperialist contrasts, the destruction of the environment and the absolute inability by capital to remedy the ills it has caused… The system is becoming more and more unstable, more and more destructive and self-destructive. Recent and ongoing events along the southern shores of the Mediterranean and the Arabian peninsula are the clearest demonstration of the instability caused by the deep crisis in the capitalist mode of production, as, indeed, are the growing tensions and centrifugal impulses that we have been witnessing for some time within what was to have been "Fortress Europe", the supposed third power standing between the United States and the Far East.
The nuclear tragedy in Japan, moreover, is something more than a chance accident, clearly revealing – twenty-five years after the similar accident in Chernobyl – the devastating character of a mode of production that has, from the very beginning, upset everything and, in particular, the relationship between the human species and the earth's crust: a character that has been made even more devastating by its imperialist phase, which has raised the destructive potential of capitalism to its maximum power.
The ruling bourgeois class is not blind to all this: it is well aware of what is happening, though powerless to control or manage it and destined to perish together with the tottering edifice it has constructed. It knows this from historical experience and class memory and thus also knows how to react: it does so through its parties, its combative military organizations (police forces, armies, legal and illegal structures), its means of mass communication, its obedient servants in the fields of politics and trade unionism (the so-called "opposition", the so-called "defenders of the workers"), the rhetoric it pours out from thousands of loudspeakers of all types (rights, democracy, the Constitution, non-violence, social peace, etc.).
The main ingredient in all this is the appeal to the Nation, which lately has become more and more insistent and widespread. In all countries, it is the reappearance of these contradictions that encourages capital, its State and its ruling class to tread harder on the accelerator of nationalism every day. We saw this a few years ago in France, it is constantly to be seen in Great Britain and the United States, it can be seen in Germany and Russia, it can be seen in "Italietta", celebrating 150 years of national unity under the banner of a patriotic collective embrace, with the corresponding waving of red, white and green flags. Nationalism – destined to grow daily in boorishness and vulgarity – is the card that the ruling class has to play against the thousand and one dangers looming on the horizon. And it translates into thousands of different languages and can wear hundreds of different masks: the obtuse pride in the past, the removal of all the profound class fractures and the bloody reality that this has meant, the construction of some little lay or religious image to believe in firmly and prostrate oneself in front of… But it is also looking to the future: making "our" country stronger and more competitive, pulling "our" economy out of the quagmire of the crisis, defending "our" beaches and "our" borders from invasion by barbarians, safeguarding "our" language and culture, "our" living space… Things already heard and practised in the years leading up to the world wars.
Because this is exactly what nationalism prepares for: the tightening of ranks, when objective circumstances are in place and the demand for it is loudly voiced in the name of "saving the threatened fatherland", to move on at the opportune moment to a war effort: with no internal resistance, no spanners in the workings of the war machine, at any level – in the field of production, discipline in the factories, social and military mobilization, law and order and "culture", and so on. At the right moment, national capital will be in need of an army to defend itself against other national capitals (and at the same time to assault them), engaged in the same effort – and an "army" means closed ranks, being reliable, disciplined, efficient at all levels, on the warfront as in the back lines, in the war fought with weapons as in the war of words, deeds, ideas and passions.
At the same time, this progressive intensification in national, patriotic and chauvinist rhetoric is accompanied by a strategy (also the fruit of historical experience) of incessant segmentation, the obsessive creation of barriers, borders, separate territories within which individuals, groups, social layers and classes are caged. A gigantic national Lager is created, consisting of separate compounds, divided off by mutual mistrust and intolerance, built upon hate and competition. The Nation, incensed and exalted as a single entity, then becomes a container for "identification and expulsion centres", both real and metaphorical ones: exactly like the "best of all possible worlds", the world of progress and freedom is increasingly turning out to be a universe of islands on a collision route, glowering at one other and doing each other down as soon as they can, while at the same time, within every nation, the segmentation increases, isolating and fragmenting, distancing and separating. In fact, this is the only way that the pot can be brought to the melting point necessary for the war effort. Divisions are made today, so that fusion is easier tomorrow. The two strategies are not opposites: they converge dialectically – towards sacred national unity by taking the precaution of previously fragmenting each component of it.
Persecuted and tormented by the crisis, proletarians must not fall into the trap. They must refuse both the call of their national flags, with all the disgusting racism and chauvinism that goes with it, as well as refusing to turn in upon themselves to defend the illusion of a "little world apart". They must stick together, it is true, but along class lines: defending their own interests, which the worsening crisis will inevitably reveal to be contrary to those of the bosses, of the national economy and of the State that upholds and defends them. They must take action against the fragmentation of their lives and their reactions: by overcoming all the barriers that separate them, connecting to one another over and above the artificial categories created by capital at all levels (in the workplace as in daily life), destroying all the obstacles standing in the way of creating a single, true class front.
This will only be really possible if, on a path that will inevitably be rough and exhausting, they recognize the need for a guide of their own, a chief of staff that does not stand aside and look on but which, in the struggles of the exploited class and its clash with the ruling class, has gained the trust of the proletarians, over and above their national and local confines. Briefly, if they recognize and support the international communist party.

WILSONVILLE, Ore., December 17, 2013 — Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) and Chinese automaker Jianghuai Automobile Co Ltd (JAC) today announced the successful deployment of the Mentor® Volcano™ and Capital® tool suites. As one of China's leading automotive OEMs, JAC uses the Mentor Capital suite for electrical system design and Volcano products for in-vehicle communications implementation.
Now deployed into both passenger and commercial vehicle projects, the Mentor technology delivers benefits to JAC ranging from enhanced design quality to reduced power consumption within the vehicles. These benefits are amplified because the deployment of the Mentor tools is now extending to JAC's supply chain.
JAC uses several Mentor products for electrical system design including the Capital Logic™ product, Capital HarnessXC™ product and mechanical CAD integration products. Following a successful pilot project, JAC has now standardized the Capital suite for all production platforms. This allows JAC to rigorously apply its intellectual property such as component definitions, design constraints, and rule checks. Use of the Capital tool suite by JAC's wire harness suppliers extends data continuity to the manufacturing domain. Together with the Capital tool suite's advanced data management capabilities, these factors help ensure data consistency and promote design quality. Furthermore, JAC's electrical engineers are able to reduce overall harness cost and weight by exploring alternative implementations using metrics generated dynamically by the Capital Insight™ product. Wire harnesses are both expensive and heavy, and while cost reduction is always a key driver, weight reduction is now receiving close attention in order to boost fuel efficiency and minimize emissions.
JAC also uses the Mentor products for in-vehicle communications. Specifically, JAC's LIN and CAN communications are designed using Volcano Network Architect™ (VNA), which helps automate network design and provides deterministic analysis such as end-to-end timing verification. In addition, JAC is now adopting the Mentor Volcano Target Package™ (VTP) embedded communications software for several ECUs. The VTP software is helping JAC realize important benefits such as reduced ECU power consumption and improved diagnostic capability.
Mr. Yan Gang, deputy general manager, JAC said, "Mentor's technology for automotive electrical and electronics design is world leading. Given the importance of electronic systems in modern vehicles, products such as Capital and Volcano clearly boost JAC's competitive position, not only in China but also worldwide." This point was amplified by Danny Perng, Mentor Graphics vice president for the PacRim region, who commented "Electrical and electronics design are clearly intertwined. JAC provides a great example of how Mentor's extensive product range can deliver tangible benefits in these critical domains."

The Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania
Ultima Vez Modificado: 26 de febrero del 2004
(February 26, 2004, Philadelphia, PA) - Researchers at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania are looking for volunteers to compare the effectiveness of two leading, FDA-approved smoking cessation medications in combination with different types of counseling. The study - led by clinical social worker Peter Gariti, PhD - is the world's first head-to-head trial of the two medications for light smokers. A previous study evaluated only heavy smokers.
Volunteers should be 18 years of age or older, in good health, smoke less than one pack a day and be motivated to stop smoking. Participants will be provided with nine weeks of medication plus up to 10 weeks of individual counseling. With time allowed for follow up, study participation is expected to last for nearly one full year. Study participants will receive the medication free of charge.
Researchers hope to recruit more than 260 participants for the study, which will remain open to volunteers for three and one-half years. Completion of the study is expected to take up to five years. The study is entirely supported through a funding grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse, part of the National Institutes of Health.
Anyone interested should call 215-243-9959 for more information.
Contact: David March
(215) 615-3353
Mar 6, 2015 - While short-term text message mobile phone interventions have been effective, further research needs to be completed to determine whether messages sent over mobile phones can help individuals with smoking cessation over the long term, according to research published online Oct. 7 in the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.

DENTON, Texas - Never underestimate the power of a webcam and the public's pursuit of entertainment.
"It blew up overnight, really," said Laina, the star of the video, who asked us not to share her last name.
Originally from Keller, she is better known as the "Overly Attached Girlfriend;" a crazy-eyed, creepy face spoof she made of a Justin Bieber song that went viral on YouTube.
"The day after I posted it, it hit a million views," she added. "Justin Bieber's manager sent a Tweet out with a link to the video. I just thought I'm going to make a creepy face for this creepy song. When I posted it everyone was freaking out. That's when I realized how weird it really was."
Since it posted on YouTube in June, 13 million people have seen it. A second parody she produced of a Carly Rae Jepsen song got 17 million views on YouTube. And another viral video got her a free lease for twelve months on a new Kia Soul.
The new-found fame has changed her life.
"I make money on the advertisements off the videos," Laina said.
It's enough of an income she was able to quit a part-time job at a packing and mailing store.
In the last five months, 228,000 people have liked her Facebook page, and 135,000 fans follow her on Twitter.
But the 21 year old is using her newly-found platform to help others.
"I had no idea the scope of social media -- what it can do, and the reach it's got," said Peggy Ashley, an organizer with Surf Camp, a non-profit that helps children with Autism and their families.
For five weeks, Laina asked her fans to donate if she performed dares.
Tuesday night in Denton, she gave a big check, valued at $22,286, to Ashley's small charity.
"To think that the crazy weird videos I've done is resulting in something like this," Laina said tearing up, "it makes it worth it and makes me feel like I'm using it for the right thing."
She generated the thousands of dollars from nothing more than a cheap webcam, raw talent and a desire to share her success.

Ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is a blockage at the point where part of the kidney attaches to one of the tubes to the bladder (ureters). This blocks the flow of urine out of the kidney.
Ureteropelvic junction obstruction; UP junction obstruction; Obstruction of the ureteropelvic junction
UPJ obstruction mostly occurs in children. It often happens when a baby is still growing in the womb. This is called a congenital condition (present from birth). The blockage is caused when there is a narrowing of area between the ureter and the part of the kidney called the renal pelvis. Urine can build up and damage the kidney as a result.
The condition can also be an abnormal blood vessel over the ureter. In older children and adults, the problem may be due to scar tissue, infection, earlier treatments for a blockage, or kidney stones.
UPJ obstruction is the cause of most urinary obstructions in children. It is now commonly detected before birth with ultrasound tests. In some cases, the condition may not show up until after birth. Symptoms may include an abdominal mass or a urinary tract infection .
Surgery may be needed early in life if the problem is severe. Most of the time, surgery is not needed until later. Some cases do not require surgery at all.
There may not be any symptoms. When symptoms occur, they may include:
An ultrasound during pregnancy may show kidney problems in the unborn baby.
Tests after birth may include:
Surgery to correct the blockage allows urine to flow normally. Most of the time, open (invasive) surgery is performed in infants. Adults may be treated with less-invasive procedures. These procedures involve much smaller surgical cuts than open surgery, and may include:
Laparoscopy has also been used to treat UPJ obstruction in children and adults who have not had success with other procedures.
A tube called a stent may be placed to drain urine from the kidney until the surgery heals. A nephrostomy tube, which is placed in the side of the body to drain urine, may also be needed for a short time after the surgery. This type of tube may also be used to treat a bad infection before surgery.
Detecting and treating the problem early can help prevent future kidney damage. UPJ obstruction diagnosed before birth or early after birth may actually improve on its own.
Most patients do well and have no long-term problems. Serious damage may occur in people who are diagnosed later in life.
Long-term outcomes are good with current treatments. Pyeloplasty has the best long-term success.
If untreated, UPJ obstruction can lead to permanent loss of kidney function (kidney failure ).
Kidney stones or infection may occur in the affected kidney even after treatment.

Ryan McBride/Staff photographer Eighth-grader Andrew Leas, at left, and sixth-grader Brian Downer rehearse for the upcoming production of "Cinderella" at Strafford School Tuesday afternoon.
STRAFFORD — Three nights of fairytale magic are coming to the Strafford School, beginning tonight.After months of hard work, students will be performing "Cinderella," a play that is taking place this evening at 7, Saturday at 7 p.m., and Sunday at 1:30 p.m. at the school."We decided to do 'Cinderella' because we wanted something fun and lively and we all had fond memories of different versions we grew up with," said play director Mary Iron. "We always look for plays with many characters to give lots of students a chance to be involved."She said that students have been working on the play since January, rehearsing at least twice a week.During a rehearsal on Tuesday, eighth-grader Sadie Donnelly, 13, who plays Cinderella, recalled being excited when she got the main role."I was literally in tears when I found out," said Donnelly. "I wanted this role so bad."Donnelly said that she and Cinderella do have a few things in common, though Donnelly's family is not mean like her character's. Cinderella has mice friends, and Donnelly, too, has friends who help her and treat her with kindness.

Why Todd Akin Stayed, and Why it Troubles Paul Ryan
4:14 am in Conservatism, Elections, Religion by Peterr
Mitt Romney doesn't get Todd Akin. "Don't you see what you're doing to the Party? Don't you see what you're doing to The Cause? Get out of the race, so we can get a winning candidate in place!"
And Akin said, "No."
Roy Blunt, Missouri's junior senator, doesn't get Todd Akin, and neither do Kit Bond, Jim Talent, Jack Danforth, or even John Ashcroft, former GOP senators from Missouri all. "Please, Todd, for the sake of our state and our party, get out of the race."
And Akin said, "No."
Karl Rove and the others behind the SuperPACS that have been pouring money into Missouri don't get it, and neither does John Cornyn or the people at the NRC. "We'll pull our funding and tell your donors not to give to your campaign. We'll univite you to the Republican National Convention. Get. Out. Of. The. Race. NOW."
And Akin said "No."
Maybe Iowa's favorite son, Rep. Steve King, can explain it to them. He gets Akin, as his (pre-rape comments) endorsement of Akin makes clear:
Congressman Todd Akin is my friend, he is running for the United States Senate and he is the man that will always stand on the principles that we believe in. Too many people bend or sway in the wind or they get drawn into the mesmerizing idea that somehow someone can guide you up through a leadership channel if you just go along to get along. He is not going to put up a vote for the sake of going along to get along and neither will I. We have a sacred obligation to all of you, that's to keep our oath of office. That's to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
That's Todd Akin, as local politician and reporters from around St. Louis know all too well, like Kevin Horrigan:
For nearly a quarter of a century, we had him mostly to ourselves. He was that little barbecue joint that nobody else had discovered. He was a secret fishing hole we didn't have to share. We never knew what he would say next, but whatever it was, we knew that there was a good chance it would be ridiculous.
There was never anything as outrageous as the magical women-don't-often-get pregnant during "legitimate rape" claim that now has him in hot water. But if he started talking about Sunday blue laws or the evils of sex education or the dangers of the state licenses for day-care centers or any of the other social issues that came before the Missouri Legislature in the 1990s, Todd would safely go off the deep end and only the Akinmaniacs would notice.
He was kept pretty well bottled-up during his 12 years in the Missouri House. In those days, Democrats still controlled the House and moderation wasn't yet a sin within the GOP. Todd's views were so extreme that most mainstream Republicans rolled their eyes when he got up to talk.
He didn't care. He was a man on a mission.
A man that will always stand on principle. A man on a mission. That's what Romney and the GOP senators from Missouri and the PTB in the RNC and the political operatives in the GOP don't get. Or perhaps they get it, but were hoping they could get him, just once, to back off and tone it down.
Good luck with that.
From Akin's perspective, he can end up in one of three ways. First, he could become a hypocrite. He could give up his principles, give up his mission, and give up his candidacy, which to him would be tantamount to giving up his faith. "When things got tough for God's prophets in the Old Testament, or the early Christians under Roman persecution, some of them bailed on God. I'm not going to do that." To leave the race like this would set the stage (in Akin's mind) for years of nightmares: "how many abortions could I have prevented, if I had just remained firm, remained faithful, and remained strong?"
His second possible outcome is to become a martyr. "I held firm to my convictions, I remained faithful, and whatever happens in the election happens. If I lose, I lose — but I didn't lose my faith." In becoming a martyr, he will be a hero to the Fundy Faithful, and they will tell stories about him for generations to come. "When faced with choosing between his faith and what is 'prudent' and politically popular, Akin didn't flinch. Sure, he went down in flames at the polls, but that didn't matter to him. What mattered to him most was keeping the faith. And he kept it."
His third possible outcome is to become a senator. By remaining faithful, Akin will proclaim to the Fundy Faithful in Missouri that he is putting this race in God's hands. His prayer is that they will rally around him in numbers that will amaze the pundits, astound the GOP establishment, and send God-fearing people across the country into a religious frenzy of delight.
A hypocrite, a martyr, or a senator. Akin refuses to accept the first mantle, and will be perfectly happy with either of the other two.
And that probably makes Paul Ryan very sad.
It's not because Akin might lose to McCaskill, costing the GOP control of the Senate. It's not because the focus on Akin might derail the careful planning for next week's Republican National Convention. It's not because the focus on Akin might spill over into the presidential race, forcing Romney and Ryan to talk more about social issues than the deficit, the budget, and the economy, and perhaps costing them the White House.
It's because Akin chose what Ryan did not.
Robin Marty of RH Reality Check lays out quite clearly who Ryan is, as she wades through years of his statements and votes:
Rep. Paul Ryan is against abortion, no exceptions. Paul Ryan would allow an exception for rape. Ryan doesn't believe in birth control. Ryan only has three children, he must believe in birth control. Ryan is pro-life "from conception to natural death." . . .
We may not be entirely sure where Ryan stands at this moment, but anti-choice activists have absolutely no doubt that Ryan is in fact their "pro-life" hero. CatholicVotes announced their endorsement of the Romney/Ryan ticket, saying, "Paul Ryan will be the first pro-life Catholic to appear on a Republican presidential ticket since Roe v. Wade. Paul Ryan understands his faith. He understands Catholic social teaching, and prays and works to apply his faith to the practice of politics, including his economic and budget proposals."
Exactly what are those social teachings? Well, it comes as no surprise that CatholicVote does not believe in abortion in any instance, including for victims of rape. "The rapist… is forever guilty of rape. The child conceived as a result of the rape was not guilty of the crime. The child did no wrong. The child ought not get the death penalty for his father's rape." but once again, Ryan is endorsed by supporters who claim he feels the same way, but avoids saying as much himself.
Winks. Dog whistles. Carefully nuanced statements to preserve an image. Playing coy with the press to present two faces to the world. In that respect, Ryan is the anti-Akin.
Which makes this information from Politico about Ryan's phone call yesterday to Akin very, very interesting:
The call, first reported by NBC, did not entail Ryan asking Akin to drop out, the source said.
But he echoed the comments Mitt Romney made condemning the comments, as well as those from Senate officials who have said Akin needs to think about the impact of his remarks on the party and other candidates, the source said.
It was "not a brief call," the source said.
Something tells me Ryan didn't ask Akin to drop out because he knew it would never happen. Given a choice between being a hypocrite on the one hand or a martyr or senator on the other, he knew that there was no way that Akin would choose to be a hypocrite.
But for Ryan, it likely got worse. The more Akin talked, the more it probably bothered Paul Ryan, because while Akin was remaining firm and sticking to his principles, the more Akin talked about publicly witnessing to his faith, the more it hit home with Paul Ryan that he was hiding his own principles and downplaying his faith.
That had to hurt. And it will hurt all the way to November.

Ultima Vez Modificado: 17 de junio del 2007
As a patient, I feel the need to learn all I can about any new diagnosis. It helps me feel comfortable with my treatment decisions and what the diagnosis means for me. Most patients who receive a diagnosis of lymphoma have never even heard of it, let alone know that there are more than 30 different variations of the disease. Elizabeth Adler was one of those patients; setting out to learn all she could about lymphoma as soon as the diagnosis was suggested. Now deemed cured by her oncologist, she developed Living with Lymphoma , a guide for patients, family and friends or anyone involved in the life of a person with lymphoma.
The guide covers all the types of Hodgkin's and Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, symptoms and steps to diagnosis, treatments and an introduction to complementary therapies. Additional chapters introduce us to the immune system, basic cell biology, lymphoma classification and a glossary. Elizabeth was a neurobiologist and professor at the time of her diagnosis, giving the book a scientific background, but intertwining her personal story and humor helps make it more than a reference book. She takes the reader through symptoms, diagnosis and treatments on a level that isn't too scientific.
This is the most comprehensive book I have seen on the subject, short of a medical text. While 424 pages may sound like more than one can handle during a stressful time, the book is organized like the journey most patients will travel. Elizabeth notes that at different points on the journey, people need different information, hence the layout of the book. This allows the reader to refer to the sections as they pertain to them if they don't have a chance to get through the whole book at once. OncoLink highly recommends this guide.
Dec 7, 2010 - Rituximab may be a better option than watchful waiting in some lymphoma patients, and a new treatment option appears effective for relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma, according to two studies being presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology, held from Dec. 4 to 7 in Orlando, Fla. Other research being presented will highlight new options for the standard treatment of advanced asymptomatic follicular lymphoma; mantle cell lymphoma; and early, unfavorable Hodgkin's disease.

Big cabinet decisions loom as Obama vacations
POSTED: Friday, January 4, 2013 - 7:21am
UPDATED: Saturday, January 5, 2013 - 8:59pm
Honolulu, Hawaii (CNN) — As a new Congress takes over on Capitol Hill, all eyes are turning to what will certainly be a vastly different Obama Cabinet in the coming weeks.
High-level vacancies in the administration are expected to include secretary of state, secretary of defense and treasury secretary. A permanent CIA director also must be chosen.
And even though President Barack Obama remains on vacation all week in Hawaii, 5,000 miles away from Washington, speculation is swirling over whom Obama will pick for the top spots and when they will be announced.
Although Obama announced late last month that Sen. John Kerry is his pick to replace Hillary Clinton as secretary of sate, a senior administration official tells CNN no final decisions have been made regarding the other key positions.
CNN has learned that former Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel, a top contender for the Defense Department post whose prospects had appeared to be dimming amid criticism from pro-Israel groups and gay organizations over past comments, is still in the running for secretary of defense.
Another source tells CNN's Gloria Borger that the president "hasn't signed off yet" on Hagel replacing outgoing Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and is "mulling over this and other appointments" while in Hawaii this week.
The general expectation, this source added, is that the president will likely announce the Defense post, as well as other Cabinet appointments, as early as next week.
Hagel has some big backers.
"I understand his nomination is back on the table, and I believe very strongly he should be defense secretary," former Democratic Sen. Max Cleland told CNN.
Meanwhile, the president himself did not rule Hagel out for the top Defense post in a recent interview on NBC's "Meet the Press."
"My No. 1 criteria will be who's going to do the best job in helping to secure America," the president said, adding that nothing he had seen specifically ruled Hagel out.
Still, Hagel supporters are concerned about the process of names being floated and opening possible contenders up to harsh scrutiny before they are formally named.
"Anyone with any record of involvement in controversial issues will always mobilize against a would-be nominee a whole phalanx of accusations and sometimes distortions," said Zbigniew Brzezinski, the former national security adviser to former President Jimmy Carter.
Hagel is not the only name in the mix for the powerful post. Michele Flournoy, former undersecretary of defense for policy, remains a leading candidate. A source also tells Borger that Deputy Defense Secretary Ash Carter "still has his supporters."
Meanwhile, at the Treasury Department, where Secretary Timothy Geithner plans to leave sometime around the inauguration, at least one person floated -- American Express CEO Kenneth Chenault - has no plans to leave that company, a spokesman confirmed to CNN.
White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew is considered to be a frontrunner for the job.
At the CIA, Counterterrorism and Homeland Security Adviser John Brennan and Acting CIA Director Michael Morrell remain on the short list to replace retired Gen. David Petraeus, according to a source.
History shows that most presidents get the nominees they want, but in this political environment, there's no guarantee.
"It used to just be Supreme Court justices who inspired these sorts of partisan free-for-alls; now it's bleeding into a president's cabinet picks as well," said Reid Wilson of the National Journal.

The scene was based off of the episode "Nano of the North" where the girls had to fight an invading army of microscopic robots. These robots came out of the sky from a nanite cloud in raindrops and fed on carbon, thus eating away at the girls' clothes when they dried to fight them. They were forced to shrink down to microscopic size to fight the nanites head-on.
