|Brie with Nugget
I looked over at Brie... still sleeping soundly, recovering from a tummy bug that struck without warning yesterday. Along with a pretty wicked thunderstorm. Interesting coincidence.
She begged for a sleepover last night. I wouldn't want to sleep alone either, if I didn't feel well. And it was stormy outside. She's on the mend now, so I tiptoed quietly downstairs.
I peeked outside. My garden is growing, like a weed. No surprises there.
Look at the mess splashed up all around the sides of the coop. Yuk.
Even Bun Bun is staying indoors. Stardust is miserable.
Chin up, girls. "Project Sand" will be under way, once the ground dries up a bit.
Once it's dry enough, I've hired Son One to haul a bunch of it here, and revamp the chicken runs in both quarters, to give the girls a bit more comfort. Sand drains, mud splatters. It's easy to see which ground covering is preferable.
Plus, did you know that chickens need something called "grit" to help them digest their food? Birds need this, in general.
And what better way to get grit than from sand, which includes ground up oyster shells... rich in calcium to help strengthen their egg shells.
It will be good news all around when we get the sand in here. If it ever stops raining, that is. For an update on "Project Sand" click on our photo gallery: The Beller Chicks

The Porsche Panamera is many things. It's controversial, since anything other than a sports car is going to put Porsche purists' undies in a twist. It's polarizing because, well, have you seen the thing? And yes, the Panamera is also quite expensive. But ultimately, the Porsche Panamera is a magnificent grand tourer that strikes an impressive middle ground between practicality and driving thrills.
Used Porsche Panamera Models
The Porsche Panamera debuted for 2010, but only in S, 4S and Turbo guises. The base Panamera 4 arrived a year later, while the Turbo S and Hybrid were new for 2012.

We all know that alcohol prohibition was great news for organized crime in the 1920s, and we also know that drug prohibition is causing widespread societal destruction today, but taxation also can facilitate criminal behavior. Specifically, there is considerable evidence that punitive taxes on cigarettes promote criminal activity. Here's a video from Michigan's Mackinac Center.

The Laffer Curve Strikes Again
Posted in Fiscal Policy, Laffer Curve, Supply-side economics, Tax avoidance, Tax Compliance, Tax evasion, Taxation, Tobacco, Underground Economy, tagged Bulgaria, Dynamic Scoring, Fiscal Policy, Incentives, Laffer Curve, Romania, Static Scoring, Supply-side economics, Taxation, Tobacco, Underground Economy on August 29, 2010 | 32 Comments »
In the private sector, no business owner would be dumb enough to assume that higher prices automatically translate into proportionately higher revenues. If McDonald's boosted hamburger prices by 30 percent, for instance, the experts at the company would fully expect that sales would decline. Depending on the magnitude of the drop, total revenue might still climb, but by far less than 30 percent. And it's quite possible that the company would lose revenue. In the public sector, however, there is very little understanding of how the real world works. Here's a Reuters story I saw on Tim Worstall's blog, which reveals that Bulgaria and Romania both are losing revenue after increasing tobacco taxes.
Cash-strapped Bulgaria and Romania hoped taxing cigarettes would be an easy way to raise money but the hikes are driving smokers to a growing black market instead. Criminal gangs and impoverished Roma communities near borders with countries where prices are lower — Serbia, Macedonia, Moldova and Ukraine — have taken to smuggling which has wiped out gains from higher excise duties. Bulgaria increased taxes by nearly half this year and stepped up customs controls and police checks at shops and markets. Customs office data, however, shows tax revenues from cigarette sales so far in 2010 have fallen by nearly a third. …Overall losses from smuggling will probably outweigh tax gains as Bulgaria struggle to fight the growing black market, which has risen to over 30 percent of all cigarette sales and could cost 500 million levs in lost revenues this year, said Bezlov at the Center for the Study of Democracy. While the government expected higher income from taxes in 2010 it has already revised that to the same level as last year. "However, this (too) looks unlikely at present," Bezlov added. Romania, desperately trying to keep a 20 billion-euro International Monetary Fund-led bailout deal on track, has a similar problem after nearly doubling cigarette prices in 2009 then hiking value added tax. Romania's top three cigarette makers — units of British American Tobacco, Japan Tobacco International and Philip Morris — contributed roughly 2 billion euros to the budget in taxes in 2009, or just under 2 percent of GDP. They estimate about a third of cigarettes in Romania are smuggled and say this could cost the state over 1 billion euros.
When Regulators Attack
Posted in nanny state, Regulation, Statism, Tobacco, tagged nanny state, Regulation, Statism, Tobacco on March 31, 2010 | 3 Comments »
No, that's not the name of a new TV series. We should be so lucky. Instead, it's a good description of the government's approach to tobacco. Instead of letting adults make up their own minds about costs and benefits of risky choices (which includes most things in life, such as crossing a street and eating a cheeseburger), nanny-state officials have decided to investigate menthol-flavored cigarettes. And since the Food and Drug Administration has been given authority over the tobacco industry and since the FDA's supposed purpose is to ensure drugs are "safe and effective," that almost certainly means this latest campaign will lead to either further restrictions on free speech or outright bans. Here's a blurb from the Wall Street Journal:
Congress last year added the tobacco industry to the FDA's regulatory mix and today a panel of health experts making up the agency's new Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee is kicking off a two-day meeting. First on the agenda: how menthol flavoring in cigarettes affects smokers' habits. Small wonder that menthol is getting early attention, says the New York Times, which notes menthol butts account for almost a third of the $70 billion U.S. cigarette market. After more meetings, the advisory panel will send recommendations to the FDA, which could eventually decide to ban menthol products or take steps to curtail their marketing.
One can only wonder how far down the slope we will slide. There already are attacks against fatty foods and sugary soft drinks. Both provide pleasure to many people, but that no longer means much in Washington. Will regulators, either at the FDA or elsewhere, eventually decide that anything linked to obesity must be regulated and/or taxed? And now that government is going to pick up the tab for an even larger share of health costs, how long before the politicians use obesity-related costs as a major justification for further efforts to control our private lives? Maybe some day we will have a Federal Health Police to enforce daily exercise mandates? I better stop now before I give them any ideas.

Neptune Room/brunch!
I would like to thank kathryn for her great rec for brunch. The food (lobster benedict & country eggs/w sausage, bacon , grits, and a wonderful biscuit with gravy) was absolutely perfect. And cudos to chowhound for giving us "chowhounds" a place to give and get great info from other foodies.
I'm so glad you liked it. It's definitely my to-go for a great (no line) UWS brunch. Shhh... :)
re: kathryn
re: wadawada
neptune room and good enough both have good, fresh food.they should both be recognized for getting that right. you can taste the difference in the eggs, bread etc...when a breakfast/brunch restaurant is mindful of fresh ingredients. that's why good enough to eat has lines... although the rooms look different, the food at both is better than average crap..

The darker side of the Gift of LifeDecember 11,2013With the Gift of Life Marathon movement in full swing, I cant help but wonder why nobody is speaking out about eligibility guidelines for giving blood.
Im beyond thrilled by the community motivation to break the national record and save thousands of lives. But Im disappointed that no one is shedding light on the homophobic ban on blood donations, because the reality is that in 2013 more than 30 years after the AIDS scare of the 1980s giving the Gift of Life is still a heterosexual privilege.
Not everyone knows this, but because of a regulation from the Food and Drug Administration, no man who has had sex with another man since 1977 can donate blood at any point in his lifetime. No waiting period, no excuses, no exceptions. The regulation came about during the AIDS scare in the 1980s back when people knew much less about HIV, had much less technology to screen blood for it, and the general public thought was that AIDS was a disease for gay people and African-Americans. Public mentality has changed, but it hasnt changed enough.
In 2006, the American Red Cross, along with two medical groups, made a joint recommendation that the Food and Drug Administration reverse this lifetime ban for gay and bisexual men, calling the rule medically and scientifically unwarranted. The groups pointed out inconsistencies with other high-risk social groups and told them they were misinterpreting their statistics. The Red Cross was right, but the FDA didnt buckle.
Fast forward to 2013. The upcoming Gift of Life Marathon blood drive is sponsored by the American Red Cross which is forced to follow FDA regulations, whether they like it or not. Fast forward to the rampant radio ads and newsletters asking people to donate blood. Fast forward to the 17-year-old gay kids who arent out yet hearing those ads and wondering how they can tell their friends why they arent joining the cause.
Fast forward to Dec. 17. Youre sitting in a lawn chair with a needle in you. Feeling like a true community servant, you look around to see who else joined you. But there are no gay men. There are no bisexual men. There are no men with non-traditional sexual histories.
This isnt right.
Its truly remarkable how the Rutland area can come together to do community service, but with a large community event like this, we also need to make a large commitment to standing up against homophobic regulations.
So heres what Im asking: If you are fortunate enough to be eligible to donate blood, be an ally to men who have sex with men. Write to the Food and Drug Administration, and tell them to end their illogical, homophobic regulation against men who have sex with men. Tell them that their all-out ban does nothing more than alienate gay and bisexual men from the rest of our community, and thats not OK with Rutland County.
Tell them its 2013, and its time to adhere to modern medicine. Tell them were trying to set a record here, and they need to get their acts together.
We can say we were the first to implement a form of marriage equality, and we can point out that we give spousal benefits to same-sex partners. We can shatter this blood drive record in the faces of the entire country, and we save more lives than any region across the nation. But if were not willing to speak out against medically unsound homophobia, we cant really be heroes.

A Massachusetts District Court upheld the Boston Retirement Board's decision that a former Boston Police officer forfeited his pension due to drunkenly shooting another officer in West Roxbury in 2006.
On Jan. 18, Judge Francis Marini of the Taunton District Court affirmed "the decision of a judge of the District Court that determined that the Boston retirement board (board) correctly decided that Durkin's pension was forfeited."
Durkin was a Boston Police officer and on June 21, 2006, after finishing his afternoon shift, he went to an evening cookout at the Dorchester Yacht Club, according to the ruling. He attended the cookout in civilian clothes, carrying his department-issued firearm in his off-duty holster on his hip, as was permitted.
Durkin had drank some alcohol at the cookout and left after midnight. He then headed to a lounge in the Dorchester where he continued to drink. As Durkin was leaving the lounge, a Boston Police officer, Joseph Behnke, suggested Durkin sleep at Behnke's house in the West Roxbury because Durkin seemed too intoxicated to drive. Durkin fell asleep during the drive to West Roxbury, "woke up, left the car, and started walking 'in a highly intoxicated state' in a direction away from Behnke's house."
Behnke followed Durkin and asked him to come back to the house. But Durkin, from a distance of five to six feet, pulled out his weapon and fired one shot at Behnke, hitting him by his hip. According to the ruling, Behnke shouted, "I've been shot, Paul, you shot me!" Durkin walked away, and called a friend on his cellphone and asked to be picked up and driven away.
Durkin pleaded guilty to assault and battery by means of a dangerous weapon on April 23, 2007, according to the ruling. On March 31, 2009, he applied to the board for deferred superannuation retirement, did not receive a response, and then requested a hearing.
At a July 15, 2011, board hearing, Durkin acknowledged that "the most important duty of a police officer is to protect life." On September 22, 2011, the board voted to deprive Durkin of his pension.

1. There probably isn't any other sport where you can plainly see a coach or a manager make a strategical decision, then watch it play out good or bad before your eyes.
That's why it as tough to watch University of Miami cleanup hitter Danny Valencia launch a back breaking grand slam over Ole Miss on Monday night, just seconds after Ole Miss coach Mike Bianco had trudged to the mound and decided to leave reliever Garrett White in the game with the bases loaded and two out in the bottom of the seventh.
Valencia's hit broke open a game in which the 'Canes had edged ahead 9-8. When Valencia's hit left the park, another fine season was over for the Rebels as Miami won the Super Regional and advanced on to the College World Series.
2. In another Ole Miss related matter, junior college quarterback Brent Schaeffer passed his classes and graduated from College of Sequoias, his California junior college.
He's expected on campus for the second semester of summer school on July 3 when Mr. Dry Ribs has been told again that Schaeffer still needs to finish more academic work in order to be eligible to play in the season opener on Sept. 3.
That shouldn't be a problem, though. Once most schools have a player on campus, they have every tool possible at their disposal to make sure he becomes eligible, such as tutors and state-of-the-art academic centers. It's rare that you find once a signee is on campus and has to make grades to become eligible, especially a signee of Schaeffer's magnitude, that he doesn't make it.
3. From the world of technology comes this gem – the University of Nebraska will use pills to monitor the body temperature of its players during their summer workouts. The pills have coils, circuits and a battery and transmit a low frequency-signal that varies with a patient's body temperature. Mr. Dry Ribs can only guess than when a player begins transmitting the Howard Stern Show, it means his body temperature is reaching dangerous levels.

Not all of the candidates that were invited made it to the Little Theater at Jefferson College Thursday for the candidate forum sponsored by the Jefferson County Growth Association, but those who did talked about their qualifications for the county offices they are seeking and about their tenure as a resident of the county.
The general election is Nov. 4.
The speeches Thursday were largely free of promises, personal attacks or even strong opinions on any particular controversial issues in Jefferson County. Of the 11 candidates who spoke to the forum attendees, not all of them asked for their vote. In a refreshing change of pace from national political campaigns, there were no personal attacks and no mud-slinging
Robert G. Wilkins was the first candidate to the podium. He's the Democrat in the Circuit Judge Division 1 election, and the incumbent in the contest. He talked about parts of his 29 years in the legal profession and about his efforts as a child advocate in Missouri.
Wilkins' most memorable line? "I'm not a politician. I'm just a judge."
Stan Schnaare, a Republican, will be facing off against Wilkins. Schnaare stressed his wide-ranging legal experience including that as a registered Veterans Administration attorney and his handling of a multitude of small and large cases in family courts.
Schnaare clinched the honor of being a resident of Jefferson County the longest with this assertion: "I live in the house in which I grew up."
Dan Stallman, a Republican, is running for sheriff of Jefferson County against Oliver "Glenn" Boyer, a Democrat, who was out of town and unable to attend the candidate forum.
Stallman spoke of his 14 years as a D.A.R.E. instructor in Jefferson County and vowed to restore the drug abuse information program for 5th graders to the sheriff's department.
Stallman said working with the D.A.R.E. students always was more satisfying than dealing with "the bad guys, ding dongs and idiots of life."
Jefferson County Public Administrator position may be the least understood position in Jefferson County government. The Public Administrator office is responsible for decisions regarding the placement, medical consents, educational/habilitation plans, finances and the general health and safety of each person, or ward, whose care is entrusted to it by the Probate Court.
As a consequence of the duties of the office, the public administrator works with the elderly who have no families to assist them, people of all ages who suffer from mental illnesses, minors with estates that must be managed by someone other than a parent and incapacitated people whose potential guardians or conservators are involved in disputes.
The incumbent public administrator is Democrat Bruce King who has held the job since 1999, a 13-year run in which he says there have not been any problems of any kind in the office.
Best line? "Not one penny of any estate or account has ever been lost by my office."
Challenging King for the Public Administrator post is Republican Steve Farmer, a Tea Party "constitutional conservative" who said he would bring a fresh perspective to the office. Farmer talked about his military background and said he wanted to elevate the awareness of the public administrator's office.
Most memorable line? "I want to say thanks to those standing guard around the world which enables us to speak tonight."
Renee Reuter, the incumbent Republican county council member for the 2nd district, which includes parts of Arnold, High Ridge and Fenton in northern Jefferson County, was next to the podium.
Reuter explained how she, as a member of the first Jefferson County Council was able to lower taxes in the county and save money by scrutinizing bid awards.
Her best line was a re-quote of a book title by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, an historian of early America and the history of women and a Harvard University professor: "Well behaved women seldom make history."
Cheryl Hermann is the Reuter's Democratic challenger. She spoke of bringing more collaboration to the Jefferson County Council, a trait she said she has as a member of the Fox C-6 School District Board of Education for 12 years.
She said would like to see a safe, clean environment in Jefferson County and a more efficient county council.
Memorable line: "When I look at the Jefferson County Council I see well-meaning people trying their best, but not very efficient."
The next, and final, candidate forum at Jefferson College will feature state and federal candidates who will appear on Jefferson County ballots. The forum will be at 7 p.m. Oct. 2 in the Arts and Sciences I Little Theatre (Room 119) on the college's Hillsboro campus, 100 Viking Drive, Hillsboro.

NORMAN — Bart Conner is a certified gear head. As a child he was the kind of kid who would tear down the family lawn mower engine and put it back together for fun.
Conner's dad was an engineer and they share a passion for interesting and unusual automotive technology. The family never had a new car; they paid cash for used Lincolns with suicide doors and other distinctive used rides. Conner's first street legal vehicle, after a succession of mini-bikes and go-carts, was a 1948 Willys Jeep.
"There were three boys in our family and we all pitched in $200 and bought a $600 Jeep," Conner said. "We loved it; six-volt battery, four banger flathead engine that would go about 48 mph flat out."
His dad started a photo album called "Bart's Toys" to chronicle the various cars he's had over the years. There's a snapshot of Bart with the Willy in the suburban Chicago neighborhood where he grew up.
"It had a canvas roof and doors flapping in the wind," Conner said. "It's 20 below zero and I'm driving it wearing a ski jacket, just as happy as can be."
Admitted to Oklahoma University on a gymnastics scholarship, his first two years of study were in the aerospace, nuclear and mechanical engineering program. Because of opportunities to work as a commentator for NBC television sports and stints on promotional campaigns, it appeared his academics should be headed in a different direction. Conner graduated from OU in 1984 with a degree in journalism. He is probably best known for being an Olympic gymnastics gold medalist.
Conner has gone on to build a sports training, philanthropy, media and motivational speaking conglomeration in Norman with Olympic gold medalist spouse Nadia Comaneci and former OU coach Paul Ziert.
Through all the various experiences, occupations and interests, Conner has never lost his love for interesting automobiles. He has attended performance driving schools and done some racing in 5/8-scale replicas of cars from the 1930s on the Legends circuit. Conner digs going 80 mph sideways.

another request from my girl, I enjoy how the ombre shaded paper brightens up with the fine glitter varnish. Incidentally, I cut the paper by hand, these are not crafted from pre-made strips, so each piece of jewelry is truly one of a kind.

Wow! BuzzLine has buzzed for 13 weeks! Many thanks to all of you who have participated. Glad you're enjoying it.
We'll start this week by celebrating last week's winner, Alexsis Rodgers. Her six-word BuzzLine gave the 4-year-old mayor of Dorset, Minn., a solid platform for re-election: "Bypottyson reform on a piggy bank budget!" See all the other great responses here.
Let's keep it infantile in Week 13.
You probably heard something about a baby being born in the U.K.? The new royalty is the most anticipated kid since Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes welcomed… what is her name?
NBC's on it. ABC's on it. E!'s on it.
So is BuzzLine.
In six words, what parenting advice might you have for the Duchess and Duke of Cambridge? Maybe…
Tell Kate straight (and William, too) what it takes to be the best royal parents ever. Put your six words of advice in the comments, and you might win a Starbucks gift card.
(#BuzzLine #PR #Marketing)
Christian Munson is an award-winning communications professional in the business of inspiring organizations' key audiences. He also administers the "BuzzLine," a weekly six-word challenge to marketing communicators worldwide. Find it on the Buzz Bin, PadillaCRT's blog, (most) Friday afternoons.

January 8, 1975 - Kingston, Jamaica.
Quote From Sean Paul:
"Life is a gift and you must treasure it. We're all here for a certain period of time, and we're definitely gonna leave one day."
Growing Up:
Born Sean Paul Henriques, Sean Paul grew up in a multi-ethnic household. His father is Portuguese-Jamaican, and his mother is Chinese -Jamaican. She is a noted painter and both parents were talented athletes. Sean Paul followed in their footsteps when he played water polo on the Jamaican national team and also represented his country in swimming competitions. Following graduation from college Sean Paul worked as a chef and then as a bank teller, but music is his first passion.
Jamaican Success:
As a teenager Sean Paul made important connections with the internationally known reggae group Third World. In 1996, after recording a couple of singles on his own, Paul hooked up with rising producer Jeremy Harding of 2 Hard Records. The result was Sean Paul's single "Baby Girl" that became a huge Jamaican hit. He had additional Jamaican hits, but by the end of the decade Sean Paul was aiming for international success.
Trivia Fact About Sean Paul:
Sean Paul's mother encouraged his interest in music by purchasing a $30 keyboard for him when he was 13.
International Dancehall Star Sean Paul:
In the year 2000 Sean Paul's single "Hot Gal Today" reached the top 10 on the Billboard Rap Singles chart. This helped his album Stage One to reach the top 100 on the R&B/Hip Hop albums chart and reach #2 on the Reggae Album chart in the U.S. The awareness of Sean Paul as a rising star around the world helped set the stage for his second album Dutty Rock.
Dutty Rock was released in 2002. It proved to be Sean Paul's breakthrough to pop audiences. It was also a breakthrough for the dancehall reggae sound. The single "Get Busy" went all the way to #1 on the pop singles chart and 3 other singles landed in the top 20. Dutty Rock received the Grammy Award for Best Reggae Album of the year in early 2003.
It took 3 years for Sean Paul's next album The Trinity to appear. The title refers to 3 elements - dancehall, reggae, and hip hop - that make up the sound of Paul's music. The album opened at #7 on the U.S. album chart and in a few short weeks, the album's first single "We Be Burnin'" was in the top 10.

For Immediate Release
Police in Emergency Status for Accident Responses
Due to winter road conditions and available resources, Springfield Police placed accident response in "Emergency Status" effective 5:20 a.m. this morning. When emergency status is in effect, citizens reporting motor vehicle accidents will be instructed to make a walk-in accident report if the following conditions exist:
- All vehicles involved are operable;
- The accident is a non-injury;
- No alcohol/drug-impaired driver is involved
As soon as conditions allow, Police department response to accidents will be returned to normal.
Springfield Police strongly encourage drivers to pay extra attention to their driving responsibilities during winter weather travel. This responsibility includes totally clearing all windows of ice and snow before driving, allowing greater distance from one vehicle to the next, and being prepared for the mistakes potentially made by other drivers. Also, be especially careful of bridges or other road areas, which often freeze before the rest of the roadway. Reduce speed to better navigate hazardous conditions. A vehicle's brakes are of little use on icy pavement.

Schwarb, F.P. and Smith, E.W. and Haigh, J.M. and Surber, C. (1999) Analysis of chromameter results obtained from corticosteroid-induced skin blanching assay: comparison of visual and chromameter data. European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, 47 (3). pp. 261-267. ISSN 0939-6411
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0939-6411(98)00094-0
In a Guidance document, the American FDA recommends the use of a Minolta chromameter rather than the human eye for the quantitative assessment of the pharmacodynamic blanching response produced by topical application of corticosteroids. The purpose of this study was to compare the appropriateness of the human eye and two models of chromameter for the estimation of skin blanching, in terms of the quality of the data generated by each method. The corticosteroid-induced skin blanching from four different betamethasone 17-valerate cream formulations was compared in a typical human skin blanching trial. The optimized assay methodology routinely practised in our laboratories was utilized. The blanching responses were assessed visually by three trained, independent observers and recorded by two chromameters (Minolta model CR-200 and model CR-300). The topical availability of the four creams was determined using visual scoring and chromameter measurements. All data were manipulated in such a manner as to produce a blanching response versus time profile from which AUBC analysis could be performed. Good correlation was observed between the visual assessments made by three independent observers. In contrast, moderate correlation was determined between visual, CR-200 and CR-300 measurements. Surprisingly, no direct linear relationship between the AUBCs produced by the two chromameters was observed indicating that the quality of the data obtained from the two instruments may not be equal. This investigation also indicated that the use of the chromameter is not completely objective. Visual scoring and chromameter measurement produce data sets that differ in quality. Each procedure needs to be validated and investigators have to be trained for both visual assessment and the operation of the chromameter, particularly with regard to the manipulation of the measuring head of the instrument.

From the waiting area to the exam room Revolution Health Center in Scottsville is taking a different approach to health care.
"The clinic was created to start to look at patients instead of a collection of diseases and symptoms as really a healthy individual that's being influenced and effected by their environment," said Dr. Zachary Bush.
Using seeds, grains, and herbs, along with acupuncture and chiropractic care, Dr. Bush aims to treat more than just the symptoms.
"The goal of the clinic is to take a look at the patient. What are the things in their environment that are causing dysfunction and in that dysfunction where are the pieces of the puzzle we can start to reassemble a healthy individual and getting to the root cause disease?," said Bush.
Whether it's diabetes, depression, or cancer, they will treat anyone in need.
"For those patients that are stuck on a lot of medication or those patients that are feeling they have not reached their optimal health through their current western medicine approach, this clinic offers some neat avenues," said Bush.
Bush says it's not his goal to take patients away from other doctors, rather he'd like to be there as an additional resource to help people change their perception about their health.

Found what passes for a box score on the 1967 Tennessee-Kentucky basketball game, Tennessee 52, Kentucky 50, in two overtimes. The web site allows you to know that Ron Widby was 4-2 against Kentucky in his career and scored 91 points in his six games against the Wildcats. You can check out other games and other players.
There's also a compendium of how the Wildcats have fared with various officials doing their games. That's an amazing stat, for no other reason than someone had to go through the games and do the calculations.

Parents with children in a Minnesota school are demanding that their children's sixth grade teacher be fired after he told his class that it is easier to "teach rich white folks than poor black people."
In an interview with a St Paul TV station, Latasha Tolbert said she was shocked when her daughter came home and told her that her teacher, Tim Olmsted, had ordered her and four other black children to sit in the back of the classroom at Heights Community School.
Tolbert said that Olmsted then told her daughter that she and the other students "will never amount to anything" and "you only have one parent."
Tolbert said she met with school officials about a dozen times since last month's incident. She then requested that her daughter be transferred to a different class.
Meg Kane, a lawyer representing Tolbert and the four other families, issued a letter to the school district demanding that Olmstead, who is white, and the school principal be fired.
Olmstead is currently on paid leave while the claims are being investigated.

New Castle News
So what's worse, a one-mill property tax hike or a $1-per-bag increase in trash costs?
That's essentially the unpleasant choice facing New Castle residents next year. The city's Act 47 team had recommended the property tax boost as part of New Castle's recovery plan update.
Unhappy with that possibility, members of city council instead are proposing a hike in city's blue trash bag fees, from $2 to $3 each.
Both plans are intended to generate roughly $400,000 for the city budget, money that's needed to help deal with rising pension costs in the coming years.
Arguments in favor of adding to the blue bag fee are that it impacts renters as well as property owners. But the case could be made that landlords raise rent to cover expenses whenever property taxes go up.
Another big difference with a high blue bag fee is that this falls solely on individuals, and not businesses, the way property taxes do.
To some extent, people can control their garbage costs if they recycle properly. But if the fee increase leads to reduced blue bag use, that will cut into the revenue the city anticipates.
Ideally, the city's blue bag system is based on fairness. People pay only for what they use. Unfortunately, there are concerns the requirement to purchase individual bags for trash disposal encourages illegal dumping by people who don't want to pay.
Lurking behind the issue of how to generate new revenue in the city is the fact there is more pain to come. The Act 47 team, tasked with finding ways to keep New Castle's revenues and expenditures in balance, is proposing an additional one-mill tax hike in the future. The fiscal problems the city faces won't be resolved by a single jolt of $400,000 in fresh cash.
Faced with the chore of looking at ways to cover costs, members of city council have been engaged in a painful, but necessary, discussion. It includes a push, led by Councilman Tom Smith, to find ways to cut costs as well as raise revenue.
Among other things, Smith is proposing the city look at privatizing trash collection and other services. If any such efforts help to lower the costs of the typical city resident, they are worth pursuing.
However, it should be noted that if the city gives up a revenue stream, such as garbage collection, the problem of pension costs doesn't go away with it. New Castle government still must make its ends meet.
The harsh reality is that there is no easy answer to New Castle's predicament. Obviously, we encourage efforts to pursue efficient and cost-effective delivery of services. City officials need to be engaged in these discussions, not just looking at what fees to boost.
And the city needs to reach out for support from other entities and organizations. New Castle's fate will impact all of Lawrence County.

Aliens visit Texas
I heard a piece on NPR on my way into work today about a UFO sighting in Stephenville, Texas, a week ago, and I wonder, is it crazy to believe this story? Dozens of people reported the object to the local newspaper and some say that they saw U.S. fighter jets following it. The military denies the claim and says the residents likely saw the reflection of light off an airliner. Listening to the people talk about what they saw made me want to believe the tale. Here's the link to the NPR story. What do you think? Make believe or a visit from beyond?
I know what you mean. Part of me thinks "well, since I wasn't there I shouldn't badmouth them, and besides, it's an awfully big universe out there."
But the other side of me imagines a bumper sticker that says:
Texas: where even the idiots are bigger

The Word: Michelle Duggar is trying for a 20th baby
Duggars! Come on, Duggars. Leave some babies for the rest of us.
The Duggar family, stars of TLC's reality show "19 Kids and Counting," take that last part seriously: Mom Michelle Duggar says she and husband Jim Bob are trying for a 20th baby.
"I would hope, but we are not expecting right now. I would be so grateful if the Lord blessed us with another one. We're trying at this point and we shall see if that is a possibility," she told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "If not, we are so thankful and grateful for the ones that God has given us so far. We are also definitely enjoying our grandbabies! They are so precious!"
The Duggars suffered a miscarriage in 2011. Their 19th child, Josie, was born in 2009. Michelle Duggar is 47 years old. These numbers make my uterus try to hide behind my other organs, but the Duggars are fully committed to their "quiver-full" lifestyle: She's also said they don't believe in overpopulation.
"We have studied it and I believe that there is a misconception about overpopulation. I think that the whole mindset of overpopulation is really overrated. A few years back, we stated that the whole population of the world could be stood shoulder-to-shoulder in Jacksonville."
Exactly. Why would the world want to go to Jacksonville?

HCMS baseball captures tourney victory
- Last Updated on 12:22 PM 04/23/12
- BY Doug Ford
Head Coach Jody Nelson of the Halifax County Middle School baseball team admitted early on to not knowing much about a team that returned only five players from last year.
He found out enough Saturday to let him know his team was making sound progress toward a competitive ball club following its win in the Halifax County Middle School tournament.
The Lions defeated Roxboro Community School 12-1 in four innings in their opener, and they followed that up with an 8-3 win over Northern Middle School (N.C.) in five innings to take home the championship.
Other tournament games had Northern Middle School edging Bluestone Middle School 15-13 in the opener, and Bluestone defeating Roxboro Community School 14-11 for third-place.
Kelonte Gutrich had a big day both at the plate and on the mound for Halifax County, hitting two home runs and two singles and accounting for five RBI, while striking out seven batters in three and two-thirds innings to get the win on the mound in the opener.
Gutrich added another inside-the-park homer and a sacrifice fly for five more RBI in the championship game.
Jake Hughes added a three-run homer in the opener, and hurler Andrew Abbott struck out three batters in three innings of work and got the win in game two, aiding his cause with a two-run single in the process.
Winning both games in the fashion the Lions did, after falling behind in both contests early, was an absolutely great way to open the season, according to Nelson.
"I felt we were a little behind where we should be going in, but the guys did a nice job and played hard," he said.
"They put in a lot of long hours, especially Friday, and they had a good practice. Give credit to the guys, they worked and they deserved it."
The Lions got contributions at the plate and on the mound from its entire roster in the tournament.
"Kelonte Gutrich hit three home runs, two of them inside the park, and Jake hit a home run, so any time you hit four home runs in two games it shows you have a little bit of power," Nelson noted.
In the championship game, Abbott helped himself out with a key two-strike, two-out hit that plated two runs and tied the game, Nelson noted.
"They stayed in it, and that was the key, they didn't panic," said Nelson.
"We're starting to mature a little bit and don't get worked up."
Nelson also was impressed with his pitching staff on Saturday.
"We used five guys on the mound today, and got to see a little bit of everybody," said Nelson
"They looked fairly sharp and didn't give up a lot of walks with a lot of strikeouts.
"It's ahead of where I thought it would be, and the defense was in the right spots. We made a couple of errors, but that's nothing we can't overcome.
"We got a key pickoff off second in the second game, but I'd like to see us improve a little bit more defensively."
HCMS 12 Roxboro Community School 1
Gutrich hit an inside-the-park home run his first at-bat and added a two-run homer in the fourth inning, and the Lions defeated Roxboro Community School (RCS) 12-1.
RCS used a double, single and Lions error to plate one run in the first inning, but it was all Halifax thereafter, with the Lions breaking a 1-1 tie with three runs in the second inning.
One run in the third inning and seven in the fourth inning, capped by Gutrich's two-run single ended the game.
Gutrich finished with two home runs, two singles and five RBI in the game, while Hughes added a three-run homer in the second inning.
Jacob McKinney finished with an RBI triple, Kavon Fitzgerald with an RBI double, Brayden Moore with an RBI single, Tyler Duffer with an RBI groundout and base hit, Joey Davis with a triple and run scored and Tylik Powell and Abbott with base hits for the Lions.
Gutrich struck out seven batters in three and two-thirds innings, and Hughes struck out one batter in one-third inning of work on the mound in game one, with a combined two walks.
HCMS 8 Northern Middle School 3
Northern scored two runs off a single, triple and RBI groundout in its first at-bat, but the Lions recovered with a three-run first inning on the way to a 8-3 win for the championship.
Gutrich finished with a three-run homer and two-run sacrifice fly, and Abbot with a two-run single for the Lions, which also got a hit and three runs scored from leadoff hitter Hughes, a triple from Powell and singles from Arthur Watts and McKinney.
Trailing 2-0, Hughes was hit by a pitch and Watts and Gutrich walked, prior to Abbott's single and Gutrich's steal of home that made it 3-2 after one inning.
Hughes and Watts walked prior to Gutrich's home run in the second to make it 6-2 after two frames, and Fitzgerald walked and Hughes and Watts singled prior to Gutrich's sacrifice fly in the third for an 8-2 lead.
A single and Lions' error produced Northern's last run in the sixth inning.
Halifax sent three pitchers to the mound against Northern, with Abbott striking out four batters in three innings and Tanner Bennett striking out two batters in two innings, before McKinney came to the mound for the sixth and final frame.
The three Lions hurlers combined to walk only three batters.

South Old Woodward between Landon and George in downtown Birmingham closed to traffic for several hours Wednesday after reports of a potential gas leak.
Consumers Energy spokesman Terry DeDoes said crews worked through the night to expose the broken pipe and make repairs. The crews finished their work about 2 a.m. Thursday.
DeDoes described the leak as relatively minor. After the repairs were made to the pipe, crews drilled a hole in the sidewalk to allow any lingering gas to vent.
After assessing the situation, they reopened the road before the situation was fixed, so that gives you some indication, he said Thursday.
The gas had migrated into a nearby manhole, where the odor was first detected.
At the time it was detected, a store worker at Birmingham Design Studio, 808 S. Old Woodward, said Consumers Energy and the several fire trucks were on the scene. The worker said there are two manholes in front of the store and that one of them was flooded with water and the other smelled of gas. Ameritech was also called to the scene.
Theyre just trying to find where the leak is coming from, she said. Its crazy.

Made out of 50% cotton and 50% polyester, this Chaser LA Van Halen Live Lion Boxy Dolman Burnout Tee brings out the ultimate rocker chick while still allowing the best comfort and fashion. Ashley Tisdale ties in all the necessities of rocker-chic, and you can score them all at Singer22. To get her look, pair your Chaser LA Van Halen Live Lion Boxy Dolman Burnout Tee with a pair Blu Moon Short Shorts in orange from Singer22 and you can't go wrong! Made out of 100% rayon, these short shorts are perfect for the hot summer weather as well as perfectly maintaining your fashionista status! The pretty fabric gives your outfit a pop of color to show you're anything but boring. Don't just stop there. Singer22 has everything else to complete Ashley's look! Accessorize with big sunglasses, like House of Harlow 1960 Sunglasses. Piece together a few more items such as an embellished bohemian bag and make sure to add some jewelry. Nothing is better than the unique Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent Diamond Embroidered Grocery Bag! This bag is made out of gorgeous black suede with silver and cobalt diamond embroidery. Add a touch of turquoise jewelry like the Shashi Golden Nugget Necklace for just enough color. And don't forget the footwear! Trove Tkees Cream Suede Sandals are simple and pretty with this outfit and beyond. The cream shade gives just enough color without overdoing the orange Blu Moon Short Shorts and blends perfectly for completing this amazing rocker chick, not to forget chic, outfit.
