Watch for Sale: Seiko Prospex Automatic Diver Scuba 200m Orange Rubber SBDC005 Click here to receive a quote!
Why I think this
watch is interesting:
About 5 years ago I missed out on a SEIKO Marine Master because someone made a very quick PayPal payment to the seller. I still sometimes think about that Marine Master, but with the SHOGUN (the watch on this page) being available, I am feeling easier... because the SHOGUN is going to fill that niche in my collection one day!
Details about this Watch
Price: Is firm, my margins are very
small, no additional discounts sorry. See the
overview table for the price
Dimensions (mm):
Case diameter (excl.crown): 44
Height: 14
Lug to Lug: 52
Lug width: 20
Strap tapered: 22 to 18
Weight: 110 grams
Max Wrist Size: 9"
Crown type: Screw-down crown
Crystal Material: Mineral
Water Resistance: 200m
Specialties: Movement: 6R15 23J Automatic, hand winding and hacking. E.g. the whole 7Sxx series, the 7S26 being the most popular, cannot be hand wound (via the crown) and also the 7Sxx series does not hack (second hand stops when crown is pulled out, a nice feature to set the watch to an exact time source and a must have feature for military watches)
Watch comes with instruction manual but no warranty. This is a Japan Only model and we are never getting those papers. However, SEIKO has a great quality record and PMWC has an equally great record about helping out customers if there should be any problems
On Helen's 5.25 inch or 13.5 cm wrist - big, but not really too big! Definitely perfect for wrists 7 inch plus... and I would wear it definitely on my 6.5 inch wrist even I find my personal 'biggest' is 42 mm. This watch is just too tempting to be passed... for me, it would definitely fill the void that the missing out on that SEIKO Marine Master has left :)

Eight games are not nearly enough to determine a bona fide bust.
But when a supposedly elite pass rusher has only 3½ sacks at the season's halfway point on a defense ranked near the bottom of the league in yards allowed after signing a six-year, $100 million free-agent contract, eyebrows can't help but be raised — especially when the eyes below those brows see a player who does not appear to be giving his all 100 percent of the time.
Say hello to two-time Pro Bowler Mario Williams, an enigmatic player who has fallen significantly short of filling the bill for a Buffalo team that paid a fortune for his services after the former first overall pick of the Texans set a franchise record with 53 sacks in six seasons in Houston.
Expected to be the centerpiece of a dramatically upgraded defense, Williams has instead been the center of the kind of negative attention one would expect on a team that has not met most close league observers' expectations.
"Based on our callers — and take that with a grain of salt — the predominant opinion is that he's a bust, and that the Bills didn't do their homework," Howard Simon, a talk show host on WGR 550 Sports Radio in Buffalo, told PFW prior to Week Nine. "There are questions about his work ethic. People call in and say they focus on him during games and that he takes plays off. (Fans are) beginning to think that (the Bills) didn't examine that he doesn't have the desire, (the) passion to get better as a football player.
"That's a big worry."
But with Williams almost immediately claiming to be no longer worried about a freak left wrist injury suffered in the final week of the preseason after it was operated on Oct. 23 in Alabama, all might not be lost for a team continuing to tread water in the flawed AFC East.
"I have not worked out during the season like I did in the offseason. It has been a while. I think that is the biggest thing," Williams said in an Oct. 29 press conference addressing his recent surgery. "I am a hands-on person. Everything I do is with my hands. Working out, not being able to do that is just mentally frustrating. I just felt like I was stagnant. That is why I am very excited about having been able to go clean it out and being optimistic about the things that happened as far as going forward from now on."
Williams also had a message for a Buffalo fan base that, according to Simon, "usually resents guys getting big contracts," especially when they don't play up to lofty expectations.
"This is not me," Williams said. "I have said that before. I have never had something where it has lingered this long. It either is season ending or it (gets better) in a week. Like I said, it has been almost nine weeks now. That has just been tough. But you get injured. Everybody gets injured and things like that.
"I think the biggest thing for me is just being able to rebound for the second part of the season and get after it."
In that press conference, we hear that there was a sense in Buffalo that Williams was a different person, with a better attitude and he seemed to be more "at ease," and news on Sunday further illustrated the injury he was playing through.
According to an ESPN report, Williams was playing with a torn ligament in his wrist that made it "like he was playing with one arm." The report indicated that we would see a different, improved Williams post-surgery, and he did lead the Bills with seven tackles — including one sack and two tackles for loss — in his return to Houston, but the Bills fell to his former team 21-9.
There are some league observers, however, who have seen enough this season to conclude that the Bills got sold a bill of goods when they pounced on the opportunity to bring Williams to Buffalo three days into this year's free-agency period.
"They missed on Mario," one league executive told PFW. "Say what you want – he was not that dominant or great in Houston. They played great defense when he was on I.R."
Williams told FOX 26 Sports in Houston earlier this week that he never wanted to enter free agency in the first place.
"But it was a one-way door given to me by the GM (Rick Smith) to leave Houston," Williams explained. "I want the fans there to know entering free agency was not my decision."
There are some who believe statements like that could do Williams a lot more harm than good.
"He would be better off to keep quiet," a Texans team insider who followed Williams closely when he was in Houston told PFW. "The more he talks about Houston, the more everybody knows he'd rather be back here."
The reality was, though, that as talented and productive as he was, Williams had outlived his usefulness in Houston.
"He never got an offer and never was going to get an offer," the insider said. "Once they brought in guys like (OLB Connor) Barwin, (OLB Brooks) Reed, (ILB Brian) Cushing and (DE J.J.) Watt — and now (rookie OLB Whitney) Mercilus — they're not going to take a guy that takes plays off.
"They won't say this publicly — but they're not. They will sacrifice a little talent for a guy that plays his ass off all the time."
But that doesn't mean Williams still can't be an extremely valuable commodity in Buffalo.
"Bottom line, he's a powerful rusher who must be accounted for," one league talent evaluator said. "Everyone wants to run him out of Buffalo because he's not producing the sack numbers, but when you flush production to the rest of the team, you can still have a big impact.
"He has not done it as much as you'd expect of a $100-million pass rusher — and that's where all the backlash is coming from — but make no mistake, he's still a rare, valuable commodity that all teams would like to have."

PEORIA, Ill.-- Central Illinois runners were able to experience a different kind of race on Sunday morning, through the heart of Illinois fairgrounds.
The fairgrounds opened bright and early on Sunday morning for the Heart of Illinois fair 5k.
Race organizer Morgan Grigsby says the event gives runners and walkers a chance to tour the fairgrounds.
Grigsby said, "We want to encourage people to get out and get active and we also just want to let people know what the fair has to offer so running through the midway and the livestock areas that obviously gives people firsthand knowledge of what we have."
More than 100 people took on the race, passing through the motionless carnival rides, through the Richwoods high school cross country course and finishing on Main Street.
Grigsby said, "Running through the midway right now is a lot different than running through it at 4 in the afternoon when all the fairgoers are here."
And while some of the athletes were looking to beat personal records others were just looking to enjoy the quiet fairgrounds.
Suzie Shertz of El Paso said, "I just came over I wasn't actually planning on walking the race at all. But my husband runs 5 days and my daughter just started running 5 days so I decided to just walk it with them."
After the race participants relaxed in the beer garden.
Awards were given out to each age group for men and women.
The 1st place overall winner was 35-year-old Rolan Guillermo who finished the race in 16:07.
Guillermo said, "I'm so happy, so happy for today."
Along with their awards each participant also received a free ticket to the fair so they could see the place in action.

Sidney man no longer faces death penalty
Cheyenne County Attorney Paul Schaub has dropped his request for the death penalty in amended first degree murder charges filed Thursday against 53 year old Larry Martinez of Sidney. Martinez is accused in the July 15th, 2012 shooting of 30-year-old Mandy Kershman of Sidney.
Schaub said after a "review of additional facts in the case, further legal research, and after consulting with several attorneys experienced in prosecuting death penalty cases he is no longer convinced there is sufficient evidence to support the death penalty."
Arraignment on the newly amended charges has been scheduled for February 12th at 8:30 a.m. Martinez is also charged with use of a firearm to commit a felony.
Court documents say Martinez told investigators he shot Kershman because of a text message from her that made him mad.

'Planes' sequel crashes
'Fire and Rescue' proves too predictable, boring
Planes: Fire and Rescue opens with a dedication to the hero firefighters of the world. It's an admirable notion, and it makes sense, given that this is a film about planes that fight fires.
But here it might be a little out of place, as Planes: Fire and Rescue has a few things on its mind besides supporting the men and women who routinely throw themselves into burning buildings.
Like money. Lots and lots of money – into the 11-figures-and-counting range. In case you weren't aware, 2006's Cars was the biggest moneymaker Disney had in decades – not because of how much green the film printed at the box office, but because a combination of toys, games and snack foods stamped with the Cars seal of approval routinely pulls in tens of billions of dollars per year. > Read more.

Customer Reviews
- Very detailed explanations and great filming. Review by Diane Wolkoff
This was the first of many Interweave videos that I have bought and it is still the one I return to time and time again. Beryl Taylor's work is just so beautiful that just looking at it inspires me to get to work in the studio. Her explanations and demonstrations are very clear and the filming is nice and close up on the detail work. She covers machine stitching, making paper fabric, stenciling, and lots more. And of course, there's Ms. Taylor's awesome accent! Maybe it doesn't contribute to the projects, but I still love to listen to her! This video earns its place at the very beginning of my video shelf.

I find myself asking myself the same question over and over. How did our society get to a place where we are ruled by minority rule? It's all around us at all levels of government.
I don't need to explain that. It's more than obvious.
We are frozen by partisanship, negativity, and minority rule.
The one glaring exception is the State of California, which is now working again in the black for the first time in decades. I feel nothing but sympathy and frustration for the majority of citizens of the City of Clearlake who want to contribute to their community's improvement. Frankly at this time, I'm not sure where you go to fix your roads.
I believe it essential that we all are able to take back a right that is truly fundamental to our freedom as a society, majority rules. Back in my seventh and eighth grade civics class (yeah, used to be there), I was taught that a majority was 50 percent plus one vote. If you didn't like your elected officials don't vote for them next time, or recall them, or prosecute them for criminal misdeeds. This diminishment of majority rule goes way back, but most significantly in California to Mr. Jarvis and his anti-tax initiatives and Proposition 13. It now prevails everywhere. There are people within the 39 percent of those who voted against Measure H who believe that what they accomplished is legal. I agree with them. But it doesn't change my opinion that it's ethically and morally anti-democratic that a majority of 62 percent is the loser and 39 percent is the winner. My heart goes out to all of the 62 percent of the people of Clearlake who are trying so hard to make their roads and community a better place.

First came the camera. Then the smartphone. Now, there's a computer you can actually wear and use.
"OK Glass. Google the hours of the Continental restaurant on Market Street," says Mike Rubillo.
Mike Rubillo is talking his computer, not his laptop, not his smartphone, no, the computer is on his face.
"This is definitely a game changer," says Software Developer Michael Rubillo.
The New Jersey software developer is part of a small group of consumers who plunked down 1500 bucks to become a so called "Glass Explorers". These are the 8,000 early adopters, hand picked by Google, to test drive it's revolutionary wearable smartphone: Google Glass.
"I've just been testing them. I've been taking them on bike rides. We took them for an airplane ride. More fun stuff now," says Rubillo.
I tried Google Glass myself. The head mounted HD camera uses a tiny optical display that shows up in the corner of your right eye.
"Make a video call to Donya Inman," I say.
Voice recognition controls everything. Are you looking for directions? Check a flight? Order a pizza? Just say the magic words: Ok glass.
"OK glass, record a video," I say.
"I think this is the start of getting us back into an upright position in our lives.Because we've sent the last 5 to 10 years staring down at our phones," says Annie Heckenberger, a Glass Explorer.
Public relations executive Annie Heckenberger with Red Tettemer Partners is working on social media applications for wearable computers. Along with great images, she found an unexpected glass benefit.
"For me it's been most fun to put them on somebody else because it's also like a childlike reaction. It's magical," says Annie Heckenberger.
We asked her to share the magic with others in Center City. What did they think?
"I feel like I'm in the future already and everyone else is just here," says a person on the street.
"This is so cool," remarks another.
But new technology breeds new issues. Number one: Privacy. Imagine a co-worker looking over your shoulder. Or even worse, what if someone in the bathroom was wearing a pair of these. Who knows what they may see.
"If someone is worried about security concerns, first I'll ask them if they have a smartphone. If they do, well they already have the same components that are in this product. So they shouldn't be any more worried than they already are," says Rubillo.
Glass already broke ground on citizen journalism. A video of a scuffle on the Wildwood boardwalk is believed to be the first arrest ever caught on Glass.
And it's videos like that one that's already forced Atlantic City casinos to ban Google Glass on the casino floor. Documentary filmmaker and founder of PRServe Chris Barrett, who provided the Google Glass videos, is also one of Google's Explorers.
In a written statement, Google responded by saying, "We are thinking very carefully about how we design Glass because new technology always raises new issues [and] will ensure that our users become active participants in shaping the future of this technology."
Steve O'Connell got his glass a week ago.
"I think the most interesting thing about Glass is that is it's a signal of what's to come," says Steve O'Connell, of Red Tettemer Partners.
An advertising creative director, O'Connell says there is one big downside: getting used to the strange looks.
"Right now I personally don't think they look all that attractive. I think they look odd. They look weird. I don't think you can walk down the street without people giving you weird looks," says O'Connell.
For now, Glass is just a fun novelty for these new users. But down the road, the possibilities could be endless.
"If you are busy with your hands. So if you are a doctor. A construction worker," says Mike Rubillo. "I think another niche market for these will be learning," he adds. "A field trip without ever leaving the class."
Glass is expected to be released to the masses early next year. Google won't say how much it will cost.
"This leverages a social behavior we already have. Everybody is connected. Hyperconnected," says Heckenberger. "This makes that behavior easier."
So next time you see someone wearing these funny looking things. Don't laugh. They may just be the next big thing. And don't forget to smile.
Mayor Michael Nutter says the city is already planning a celebration to honor the Dragons in the near future.

City and County mark opening of Regional Correctional Center
Elected officials and administrators from the City of Kansas City, Mo., and Jackson County today announced the opening of the Regional Correctional Center at a ceremony in the lobby of the Jackson County Detention Center, 1300 Cherry St. The seven-month project was completed within budget and on schedule.
"The opening of the Regional Correctional Center is a big victory for public safety in Kansas City and Jackson County," Jackson County Executive Mike Sanders said. "The City will be able to close the Municipal Correctional Institution and see some significant savings and participate in a regional solution for what is clearly a regional problem. The County is hopeful that this is just the first step in fostering greater cooperation related to public safety issues."
Sanders, along with Mayor Mark Funkhouser, City Councilwoman Cathy Jolly, 6th District at large, and chairwoman of the Public Safety and Neighborhoods Committee, City Manager Wayne A. Cauthen, members of the Jackson County Legislature and City of Kansas City, Mo., staff and City Councilmembers were invited to attend the event.
"This monumental task is one that had to be finished on an accelerated timetable," Jolly said. "For 40 years there has been a discussion going on about having a regional jail. Today is a watershed moment for both the City and County."
The announcement for the proposed regional facility was made in January, and the City and County selected Konrath Contractors to perform the renovation work.
"This was a demanding renovation projecting with an accelerated timetable and considerable logistical challenges," Cauthen said. "The staffs from the City, County and Konrath Contractors worked tirelessly to make the consolidation happen, and I think the residents of Kansas City will see substantial benefits from this project."
City officials expect to see efficiency savings of approximately $1 million annually by eliminating duplication of services, better leveraging service contracts and closing of the City's Municipal Correctional Institution.
Media inquiries and other requests for more information about this issue should be directed to Lisa Sturgeon, assistant to Councilwoman Cathy Jolly, (816) 513-1602 or email@example.com; or Angie Jeffries, Jackson County director of Communications, (816) 881-3256, email@example.com.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Flip through the "inspiration" file that every designer keeps, and at some point you will find a picture of C.Z. Guest. Debutante, showgirl (briefly), model (painted nude by Diego Rivera), socialite, gardener, intimate of artists and writers; Guest had the kind of life that seems fiction, and the perfect patrician looks to illustrate it. She wore her designer clothes with thoroughbred elegance, keeping to simple lines, rich fabrics, and soft colors to suit her cool complexion. But perhaps what drew creative types to her most was Guest's down-to-earth personality, exemplified by her recent advice to would-be gardeners visiting her web site, "The most important thing is to enjoy yourself and have a good time."
Lucy Cochrane (C.Z.) Guest died November 8, 2003 at the age of 83.

Carrying around too much extra weight has long been a risk factor for serious heart health issues like stroke, heart attack, and heart disease, currently the nation's leading killer, but what you might not know is that the list doesn't stop there.
"Many people are not aware of just how many health risks are associated with obesity," says Richard Ing, MD, Medical Director of the Bariatric Center at Bryn Mawr Hospital, Main Line Health. "The truth is that it puts your whole body at risk."
Among the additional risks that obesity poses for your body? Cancer, for one. Excess weight increases the risk of developing cancer in the colon, breast, prostate, and uterus, among other sites, and makes it more difficult to detect tumors and treat them early on.
Not surprisingly, obesity can also take a toll on your joints. Obese patients have an increased risk of arthritis and joint pain, making it uncomfortable to do every day activities and increasing the likelihood of a joint replacement surgery down the road. Unfortunately for many patients, this joint pain is also a barrier to exercise, which is key to controlling obesity.
Planning for pregnancy? Obesity can be an obstacle in trying to conceive, too. It has been linked to an irregular menstrual cycle and problems during pregnancy, like gestational diabetes, which is characterized by high blood sugar during pregnancy and can occur in any women, regardless of whether or not they have a history of diabetes.
In addition to these health concerns, obesity can also cause respiratory problems, like asthma and sleep apnea. So how can you protect yourself from these issues and get on track to managing your weight? Start from square one, says Dr. Ing.
"For patients who are struggling with obesity, getting healthy can seem like a long and difficult process, and feel defeated before they even start," he says. "Take it one step at a time. Try a healthier version of your favorite snack or a smaller portion size. Go out for a short walk. Start somewhere rather than not starting at all."
While small steps are important when you're starting out, it's important to have a goal to reach. Challenge yourself with new fitness tasks and discover new and healthier recipes until you've reversed and combated bad habits. Although your risk for these health risks lessens with every step you take, it's important to remember that unless your weight and body mass index (BMI) are at a healthy level for your age, you can still be at risk. To find your healthy target, try our body weight and BMI calculators.
If you continue to struggle with obesity, make sure you schedule regular appointments with your physician to discuss important factors like your cholesterol, blood pressure, and blood sugar, which can be indicative of your health.
Losing weight can feel like an uphill battle. If you are struggling with obesity and looking for a long-term solution, the Bariatric Program at Bryn Mawr Hospital can help. Visit our website for upcoming informational sessions, FAQ, and more information on our program.

Notes from Tripoli, Libya, Africa
Meet Hajj Malcolm Shabazz, grandson of Malcolm X, Monday, Feb. 7, 7-9 p.m., at Debug, 701 Lenzen Ave., San Jose, and Saturday, Feb. 12, 6-8 p.m., at the Peace and Justice Center, 467 Sebastopol Road, Santa Rosa, and learn about his recent hajj to Mecca and journey to Africa
by the People's Minister of Information JR
Panels and many different speakers focused on issues that were pertinent to furthering a positive relationship between Africans on the continent with those in the diaspora. Some of the topics that stuck out to me were women having a voice, the brain drain on the continent, religious tolerance, and forging a strong connection, whether Africans want to come back to Africa or remain in the diaspora.
The first myth that was dispelled as soon as I got there was that continental Africans did not want us to come back to Africa or did not like us. The ones who live on the continent that we met were working towards realizing the dream of Marcus Garvey, Kwame Nkrumah, Seku Ture, El Hajj Malik El Shabazz aka Malcolm X, and Muammar Qaddafi of uniting Africa into the United States of Africa, a true African union that would serve Africans on the continent and abroad. They loved us. Every breakfast, lunch and dinner were filled with discussions about politics, business and networking.
It was another example of how the international corporate news keeps the world in the dark when it comes to the accomplishments of Black people worldwide.
The conference was a three-day event where we listened to speakers who consisted of academics, international and national African leaders from around the world, religious leaders, traditional kings and queens of Africa, sultans and regular people who were participants. We met the daughter of the late great Kwame Nkrumah, Samia Nkrumah, who is a Pan African politician in her own right. We met the son of the late great Congolese Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba, Roland Lumumba.
We listened to African women who fight for women's rights and against traditional practices that violate the rights of women. We listened to various speakers who spoke on Islamic law, religious tolerance and other issues pertinent to the politics of African people on the planet. We met ambassadors from African countries and politicians from various countries. Some had ideas similar to the Pan Africanist views of Kwame Nkrumah and Seku Ture; some differed greatly.
Other highlights of the conference were listening to the panel that Cynthia McKinney hosted, which was the only panel led by a woman during the conference, as well as listening to the speech of Hajj Malcolm Shabazz, who spoke at a televised event during the conference in front of Qaddafi and was the only speaker of approximately 20 other speakers, besides Qaddafi himself, who was given a standing ovation.
During the conference, we learned about the Green Book, the theoretical philosophy guiding Libya, written by the leader of their revolution and president of the African Union, Muammar Qaddafi. Some of the ideas that I have read up to this point are brilliant and deserve further study and discussion within our communities – similar to how the Panthers made the Red Book essential study for the political scientists of our communities.
We learned that alcohol is illegal and that there are not any public Western dance clubs in this Islamic country. Our guide told us about how most essential goods are subsidized, especially gasoline, in this petroleum rich nation. A car that would easily have taken $45 dollars to fill up cost around $10 to top off. We saw a few malls in passing, but we shopped mainly in the open-air market that was close to the hotel we stayed in. We were hesitant to venture off to far, be it that we did not speak much Arabic and we were without a car. In the streets we noticed that the closer it got to the evening, the fewer Libyan women we would see in public on any given day that we left the hotel. I don't know why, but I chalked it up to being a cultural thing.
Overall, traveling to Tripoli, Libya, Africa, for the first time was a humbling experience in itself, and to participate in such a historic conference just put the icing on the cake. I'm even more dedicated now to getting our people better organized for power in our countries and communities in Africa and all around the planet. I cannot fully put into words the way that this experience has affected me spiritually, politically and in many other ways. The only thing I can say is that I think all Black people should travel to Africa, the Motherland, at least once in their life if possible.

Qadafi is a tyrant and a fraud.↓
Malaika H Kambon
Since the comment you made above is (a) a lie; and (b) an example of the most intelligent thing you know to say, ou can shut up any time…↓
It is not a lie. Ask the people demonstrating in Libya right now. Turn on your television. Read the news. Check the Internet. The people of Libya are coming for Qadafi.
You have now been completely and totally discredited on this board.
Good bye.↓
peace.. i want to give thanks first to the creator for allowing this to take place..thank you hajj malcolm shabazz, the people's minister of information jr, sf bay view writer ra'shida for sharing your experience.. i am an activist in the south dallas community in texas and have been working with several grassroots organizations to bring about the positive change that reflects what our african culture fights for everyday. reading this article gave me relief. i am anxious to know the action plans that came about during this process to help us on a local level. it has been a struggle that words cannot express to provide solutions that our people have not yet seen. this really made me feel like the hard work that we as panafricanist have done and continue to do is not in vain..african unity for all..forward forever..
seidah muhammad williams (merkaba kosmosan divine)↓
Qadafi is murdering his people in the streets. He's cut off the Internet.
Speak out, speak up. The people of Libya need you now.↓
The tyrant Qadafi has unleashed snipers on Libyan mourners
Way to pick a winner Minister of Information JR and friends.
The tyrant Qadafi is shooting and clubbing his people in the streets, and even bombing them with fighter jets.
Is this the kind of 'leadership' you'd like to see in the United States? Well no thanks, idiots.
And Kambon? Next time you want to call me a 'liar' think again. I'm obviously way ahead of you on this stuff.↓
James Chionsini
Anti-Gaddafi protesters shot
His speech came on a day that tens of thousands of Libyans in the capital and elsewhere in the country took to the streets calling for an end to his rule.
As demonstrators in Tripoli following the midday prayer, security forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi, the Libyan leader, reportedly began firing on them. At least six had been killed, according to the Associated Press news agency.
There was heavy gun fire in various Tripoli districts including Fashloum, Ashour, Jumhouria and Souq Al, sources told Al Jazeera.
"The security forces fired indiscriminately on the demonstrators," said a resident of one of the capital's eastern suburbs that has seen previous clashes between opponents of the regime and its remaining loyalists.
"There were deaths in the streets of Sug al-Jomaa," the resident said.
The death toll since violence began remains unclear, though on Thursday Francois Zimeray, France's top human rights official, said it could be as high as 2,000 people killed.↓

'Journalist' John Stossel joins Right
to target Dems at Wis. town halls
ABC's supposedly objective co-anchor of 20/20, John Stossel, will be headlining three bogus town
hall meetings on health care targeting Democratic congresspeople Tammy Baldwin and David Obey, along with Blue Dog Ron Kind.
Lately, Kind has seemed more loyal to his masters in the insurance and drug industries than his constituents.But Americans for Prosperity, headed by former Cong. Dick Armey, seek to push him even further to the right.
And John Stossel will be a key part of the effort to undermine Wisconsin Democrats, bringing his start power to three Wisconsin meetings.
It is stunning that the "journalist" Stossel, who is notorious for his authoritative but demonstrably false claims about the miracles of the free market, is permitted by ABC to take such an active role in
campaigning against healthcare reform and to work so closely with a Republican front group. (Americans for Prosperity's Wisconsin web page includes a photo of Republican National Chair Michael Steele receiving a Ronald Reagan award.)
For an accounting of Stossel's ongoing campaign against truth in his broadcasts, look him up at
. and go through the archives of EXTRA! You'll read about two ABC producers who quit working with Stossel because of his ideology-driven lies, and his incessant yet inaccurate defenses of corporate abuses.
ABC should hear from all of us about this blatant contravention of their "fair and objective" journalistic standards.
Here's the link to Americans For Prosperity:

Number of Campylobacter jejuni isolates tested for resistance to erythromycin
The primary objectives of NARMS are to:
In 1997, surveillance for Campylobacter in NARMS began in sites participating in the Foodborne Disease Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet). There were 5 participating sites in 1997.

- Real Name:
- Adele Adkins
- Date of Birth:
- May 5, 1988
- Hometown:
- Tottenham, North London, UK
- Resides in:
- London
Raised on her father's favorite blues music, the Spice Girls (her favorite childhood band) and The Cure (her first concert), Adele started attending the BRIT School for Performing Arts, the high school that turned out Amy Winehouse, Jessie J and Leona Lewis, in 2002. Four years later, a friend uploaded three songs she recorded for a class project to MySpace which led to her becoming an Internet sensation and getting signed to XL Records. Her 2008 debut, 19, named after the age at which she recorded it, earned her two Grammys including best female pop vocal performance for "Chasing Pavements." The best new artist avoided the sophomore slump in 2011 with 21 and its hit singles "Rolling In The Deep," "Rumour Has It" and "Set Fire To The Rain." After cancelling her tour thanks to damaged vocal cords and undergoing throat surgery, she nailed her first post-surgery performance at the 2012 Grammys and won six more trophies to boot including album of the year. But it wasn't until later that year that the singer collected her biggest prize yet — her first child. Angelo, her son with British philanthropist beau Simon Konecki, was born Oct. 2012. By the following year, she was back to making due with golden trinkets. She scored another Grammy, a best song Golden Globe for "Skyfall" and a Best Original Song Oscar for the same James Bond theme.

Talks on a proposal to allow alcohol on the sand in some places along Fort Myers beach came to an unexpected halt on Monday.
The Town Council was supposed to hear the finding from its task force on drinking in the sand, but Mayor Larry Kiker says he asked council to postpone amidst questions from people who live on the island that say some of the group's members have a conflict of interest.
"Immediately we wanted to have the town take a look at it and see if we have any legal responsibilities that might prohibit a conclusion to this," Mayor Kiker says.
The task force included the town's manager, a councilman, a director, a resort owner, two bar and restaurant owners, and three people who live on the island.
Two of the residents resigned earlier this month saying they didn't agree with what the council wanted the task force to do.
The group visited bars and restaurants that could serve drinks in the sand if approved, measuring how far out to the water.
The town attorney says she's asked the commission for a written opinion on the matter. She says she expects to hear back from the ethics commission in about a week.

New legislation introduced by Senator Patrick Leahy would rewrite portions of the Patriot Act allowing the government to collect extensive data on citizens.
Leahy says the measure would require greater oversight, transparency, and accountability in connection with the government's domestic surveillance powers.
The push comes following leaked information indicating the government is storing phone logs and emails of millions of Americans not suspected of criminal activity.
Rep. Peter Welch says he'll support his colleague's effort.
"It's time to revisit the Patriot Act, we do have a terrorist challenge, government has to have tools to protect us, but on the other hand, there can be a balance and I think the balance has gone in favor of the government," Welch said.
The changes would force the government to establish a link to an active investigation into a foreign terrorist group or power.

Benefits aren't free
EDITOR: While I agree with most everything Darryl Fenley said in his letter ("Watchdog needed," Tuesday), I have to take exception to his second sentence. I don't know where he gets the idea that Congress gets no-cost medical benefits.
Congress has the same medical plan available to all federal civilian employees and retirees. It's called the Federal Employee Health Benefits Plan, and it and allows congressmen to choose from a menu of providers with varying benefits.
While the government picks up a generous portion of the cost of the individual plans, I have to pay more than $5,100 a year for myself and my family, as would any congressman with the plan I have. I would hardly call that medical care at no cost.
As an aside, under ObamaCare, Congress will lose the federal employee health plan, and members and staff will have to purchase medical insurance from an ObamaCare health exchange.
Living near services
EDITOR: For years, I have lived within a five-minute walk of three centers that serve the disadvantaged: the armory, the James Coffee house (for youth) and the Catholic Charities day center for the homeless. In 17 years, I can recall only four times when I have been affected by the clients of these centers:
One night, two men bedded down in a neighbor's yard; I gave a young girl struggling with a heavy suitcase a ride to the armory; and I gave a lost girl directions to the Coffee House. One night I came home from work to find a boy sleeping on my porch sofa — no coat, head on his backpack. He never moved as I unlocked the door. I told my husband, and he asked him to leave, which he did.
In this time, I have never felt threatened, never suffered any physical harm or property damage.
To those that feel a deep concern about the opening of a Social Advocates for Youth center in their neighborhood ("Plan for Warrack site stirs passions," Aug. 4), I would say that I understand their concern. However, the reality of the presence of the SAY center in their neighborhood will likely be far less than they fear.

Chiefs' Trim strikes out 15 in win
SARANAC — Saranac softball coach Sam Campbell is faced with a good problem, if there is such a thing.
Campbell has a number of exceptional pitchers on his roster fighting for playing time on the mound.
Tuesday, however, Northern Adirondack might have faced one of his best.
Sophomore Tori Trim struck out 15 of 22 batters faced and surrendered just four hits in a 7-1 Champlain Valley Athletic Conference win over the Bobcats.
"Fortunately for us, Northern Adirondack committed some fielding errors that put players on base," Chiefs coach Campbell said. "We were able to hang on until we scored four in the fourth inning."
Saranac, who is ranked No. 25 in Sunday's New York State Sportswriters Association Class B poll, was able to open up a three-run lead through three innings of play.
In the fourth, the Chiefs were able to get runners in scoring position before Kourtnie Campbell belted a two-RBI single.
Trim helped her own cause by registering two singles at the plate, was credited with the win on the mound.
"Trim was hitting the strike zone all game long," Campbell said. "Her pitches had a lot of movement."
Alexis Boulerice was tagged with the loss. The freshman, though, struck out eight and walked three batters in six innings of work.
Magan Magee led the Bobcats with two hits.

Brooke Reid led Lake Placid, going 2-for-4.
"As the season progresses, we've just got to keep chipping away," Bowlen said. "We're 3-1, and I don't think we've played our best softball yet. We're continuing to evolve.'

- (Coffee club genealogists CCG's).Those retired people who join groups for the coffee, chat and listening to interesting speakers.
- (Take Out genealogists TOG's). Those who get their information largely from the internet and have vast databases of people they don't know.
- (Detective Superintendent genealogists DSG's). Those who spend years, time and money checking every fact, these people enjoy the chase and can speak and write about their families very well.
I've nothing against any of these groups, they all get enjoyment at their level of participation. But I don't think they understand each other very well, there's a bit of snobbery about it.
A DSG I talked to, divides his database up when it comes to sharing, sending a paper written tree to the TOG's with a small deliberate error so that he can identify it if it comes up on the internet . He only shares fully with his peers in his own group.
I'm trying to emulate the DSG's but even in this group, there are those who delve a lot deeper than I do. I confess to using information I find on the internet without checking it sometimes. Whoops! But I at least buy certificates for all my direct ancestors and some others (there's a bit of snobbery for you....). I know I can do better. How about you?

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Former President Bill Clinton will join Democrat candidates Joe Donnelly and John Gregg at a get-out-the-vote rally at North Central High School Friday morning.
About 4,000 people are expected to attend the event.
Clinton is expected to stump for Joe Donnelly's U.S. Senate campaign and John Gregg's gubernatorial run ahead of the Nov. 6 election.
Clinton worked with both candidates in 2008 when they campaigned for Hillary Clinton's presidential bid.
Republicans, meanwhile, are bringing their own heavy hitters to the Hoosier state next Wednesday.
Sen. John McCain will be in Indianapolis and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will be in Merrillville campaigning for Republican Senate candidate Richard Mourdock.
Bill Clinton's event will be streamed live on WISHTV.com starting at 10:30 a.m. Friday.

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Florida Gulf Coast's Chelsea Dermyer has been recognized as one of the Top 25 Mid-Major women's college basketball assistant coaches in the nation, according to the website CollegeInsider.com. The list took into account a variety of factors including an assistant coach's work ethic, servant's mentality, reputation amongst peers, longevity and success with the program, reliability, attention to detail, recruiting skills, basketball knowledge and future potential.
The article was penned by Jason Belzer, who wrote of Dermyer: " The former Florida Gulf Coast standout player joined the coaching ranks in 2008 and has since been instrumental in developing four first-team and two second-team All-Conference players. During the 2010-11 season, Dermyer helped lead the Eagles to the Atlantic Sun Conference regular season title and an automatic bid to the WNIT, after posting a 28-4 overall record."
Dermyer was listed as No. 21 on the list. She was the only coach from the Atlantic Sun Conference to make the list.
The top five included Lori Bodnar of Kent State, Jennifer Roos of Bowling Green, Misti Cussen of Oral Roberts, Jodie Kaczor Berry of Gonzaga and Megan Gebbia of Marist.
Dermyer, who has been a player or a coach for the Green and Blue since 2005, is currently in her fourth season as a member of head coach Karl Smesko's coaching staff.
Dermyer has helped guide the Eagles to a 1-1 record to start the 2011-12 season. FGCU returns to the court on Saturday, Nov. 19 when they welcome Michigan State (2-1) to Alico Arena for the 2011-12 home opener. Tip is set for 7:05 p.m. ET.
