As Sox pitchers and catchers reported to Spring Training in Fort Myers, Fla., on Friday, Lowe was ready to go at full speed. There will be no limitations. The Dec. 31 surgery was obviously a success.
However, what Lowe encountered this winter will serve as far more than just a blip on his radar screen.
Every morning now, when Lowe wakes up, he brushes his teeth and then applies sunscreen to his face. It has become a part of his daily routine. And more important, Lowe wants to spread his message in order to help prevent others from getting skin cancer.
"It's an opportunity to talk to people, to talk to kids," said Lowe, coming off a bust-out, 21-8 season. "If I can help one or two kids along the way, great. It's an awareness thing. It's more men than anything, saying, 'I don't need sunblock. I can bear through it.' But you do [need it]. You have to worry about your future, which I never did until now. It's an opportunity to talk to people about it. It's something kids should understand, the risk of sun."
With fair skin and a Michigan upbringing, Lowe, who lives in Fort Myers during the winter, was in a precarious spot without sunscreen. And now, he realizes it.
Lowe began to realize something might be wrong in mid-November, when he noticed what looked like a pimple on the tip of his nose.
So why didn't he just pop it?
"Mine was so big I just couldn't pull it off. It was so big, and the pain was miserable. I'd touch it, and my eyes would water. It started off clear, and it was always big, and it just escalated," Lowe said. "After a week, it really grew. I had no idea what it was. Cancer never came into the equation."
But concern wouldn't go away. Especially with Lowe's frequent walks to the mirror.
"It stuck out about a half inch," Lowe said, "and right on the tip of my nose. I looked just like Rudolph. It was red and had a black tip. I have pictures."
Finally, at the urging of his wife and many friends, Lowe went to the doctor in December.
"Any time you go to a doctor and they say you've got cancer, [it's scary]," said Lowe. "But he was quick to say, 'It's not melanoma; it's not going throughout your body. It's in an isolated area.' So he went in there and did what he had to do. I'll have the scar for about a year."
The surgery was no simple procedure. It took more than three hours and required between 40 and 50 stitches.
"At first, they didn't think it was growing down deep. But it did end up growing down deep. Initially I was going to get a skin graft, where they take skin from behind your ears and put it on your nose," Lowe said. "Because it was going deeper, they cut me between my eyes and pulled all my skin down. I woke up, and they said, 'We didn't have to do a skin graft.' I'm thinking, 'Beautiful!'
"Well, I get in to the room, and the doctor says, 'Let me show you what it looks like.' You have bags under your eyes and stitches all the way down. For 10 days, I had to stay inside. But the doctor did a phenomenal job."
The main sacrifice Lowe had to make after the surgery was putting a halt to his physical conditioning for about three weeks. But he was able to play light catch, with the condition that he couldn't run after a missed ball.
Considering that the patient next to him at the hospital had colon cancer, Lowe was quickly able to put his situation into perspective.
Knowing now how preventable skin cancer is, Lowe hopes people will be wiser than he used to be with regard to sunscreen.
"This is strictly from [overexposure to the sun]. It's not a hereditary thing. It's basically what you've done to your own body," Lowe said. "By burning over and over again, you double your chances of getting it. If you burn 100 or 200 times in your life like I have, then you obviously open yourself up for bigger risks."
Between Lowe's job as a baseball player and his winter residence in Florida, he estimates being in the sun 250 days a year.
He looks forward to spreading his message, knowing the words of a prominent professional athlete can carry a lot of weight.
"The crazy thing about kids is that they sometimes listen to people they see on TV more than their parents," Lowe said. "I think it's an opportunity to talk to them; even if it makes a difference with just one or two kids, it's worth it.
"In the morning, brush your teeth, put your sunblock on and you'll be fine."
With his medical woe cured, Lowe looks forward to building on the memorable success of a year ago, when he transformed himself from embattled closer to stellar starter.
"Last offseason, I was excited because I knew I would be a starter. This offseason, I didn't change anything," said Lowe. "I took two weeks off and got right back into it again. I understand now what it takes to have success; it's consistency. It's working hard and not getting complacent. Just go out there and pitch your game. Throw 80 percent sinkers and hope it works."
Lowe had a hop in his step Friday, as any player should on the first day of Spring Training.
"The offseason goes by so fast. It's great to see guys, and see guys excited again. There are a lot of new faces, but a lot of faces you recognize."
The only differences on Lowe's face were a scar and some sunscreen. The former will go away in time, but he's going to make sure the latter remains a constant.

Apparently I wasn't the only one who thought the Clipper's "We're Playing To Win" ad campaign was lame, as the team has now switched to the (slightly) more rousing "It's Game Time."
I still think they could do better. Personally, I think they ought to go edgy - play up the underdog angle, make being scruffy and unloved cool, cultivate an identity as the anti-matter to the upscale and snooty Laker atmosphere. Avis worked wonders when they proclaimed Hertz was Number One but they tried harder. I think something similar would work for the Clippers. Screw everyone else, we're having a blast here (of course it would help if the team would win once in a while) - and if your missing you're missing something.
With that in mind and nothing better to do than goof around with Photoshop Elements for a couple of hours, I decided to throw together some fantasy Clipper ads. Couldn't decide BG artwork I liked better, so I'm posting both. With apologies to Citizen Hip2Clip, I have borrowed your ID to use as the tag line: It's Now Hip To Clip.

Tampa Electric Company is warning customers of a scam that they say hundreds of customers have fallen for.
Customers are being contacted by people claiming to be TECO employees who claim President Obama has a new program that will pay their utility bills.
The scammers say they need the customer's personal information to sign them up—information like Social Security and credit card numbers.
According to a TECO spokeswoman, around 2,000 customers have been affected.
The scam isn't just limited to TECO: it has been spreading to utility customers across the country, and is being spread through social media.
TECO wants customers to know that employees do not ever ask for credit card, debit card or checking account information.
The scam is not new: according to Snopes.com, a website dedicated to exposing false urban legends, some form of it has been around for quite a while.
FOX 13's Anthony Miller is following this story for 10 and 11.

Portafilter Baskets
Most machines use a standardized portafilter basket with the volume capacity of 14 grams for the 'double-shot', but 12 gram versions are available for some machines. For the 'single-shot', most people are comfortable with the standard 7 gram basket, not even knowing that a 6 gram basket is available. Some machines portafilter bodies are able to accept an even larger volume (read: taller) basket: a 'triple-shot' or 18-21 gram basket.
The over-all dimensions of a particular basket vary depending on a number of contributing factors. Some manufactures chose to use their own proprietary design for their portafilters, and so only the baskets manufactured for that particular brand will fit in their portafilter. The measurements of a basket (or portafilter) is in a way in non-issue. It should be noted, and cannot be stressed enough, that it is the size of a tamper base, be it 45 or 58mm, that is measured, and not the portafilter or the basket itself. The most prolific manufactures on the market use portafilter baskets that accept a 58mm tamper base. The rest (with one, hardly needing mention, exception), are smaller.
Baskets are manufactured using a large sheet of steel and a press with a stamp mold. This means that over time the stamp mold can wear, creating variances in the appearance of the basket. Depending on which factory a basket was stamped at, due to the design of the mold for the stamp at that particular factory, baskets can have a number of different parameters. Most importantly are the outside diameter and height. Too narrow and the basket falls out when knocking the ground coffee puck out of the portafilter. Too tall and the basket won't fit in.
But there are other factors as well. In order for the baskets to stay in the portafilter, they are designed to work in conjunction with the portafilter spring. This spring is inserted into a slot or run on the inside of the portafilters. The slots are machined at a certain height from the top of the portafilter body. On the baskets are what are commonly referred to as "ridges". These ridges are formed from the stamping process and are designed, based on the mold for the stamp, to interface with the spring and hold the basket in place. Depending on the stamp that is used to press the basket, the ridge on a basket will vary in height from manufacture to manufacture. They may also be more or less pronounced, and can vary in width. In addition to this, the rim of the basket may vary as well. The surface of the rim can have different degrees of curvature, meaning that when the portafilter is engaged in the group head, where the portafilter is finally positioned at may change in orientation depending on the profile height of a baskets rim. Adding to the whole topic - way over the top into the realm of border-line obsessive - even the holes in the bottom of a basket are not the same in size or quality. At the bottom of the stamp for the basket are protrusions for punching holes through the metal. These punches eventually wear and get dull, leaving rough edges and or not punching all of the way through. The design of the punches can change too, in their hole pattern and size.
Describing all of these factors (and this ramblings in general) is meant to mean "no two baskets are ever alike", or as a disclaimer that although we strive to provide the best quality products, this is not always in our power.
In the end, what basket one feels like produces the best product is going to be the choice for them and, unfortunately, this is not predictable.

I´ve some problems with the display fullscreen slideshow. It is turnd off and stil on my side. I have disabeld it in the side settings. Is this a known bug? I have re-installed the Theme but it still doesn't work like it should.
Plese help me :-/
I really love this theme. So sad that the theme looks not so good on smartphones: I don't like the "navigation" button. However, the "Live preview" on iphone is fantastic, with full menu display. Is there any ways to view this theme on iphone exactly like on laptop or the "Live preview", which means instead of the navigation button we can see the whole menu? I know it's part of "responsive" theme, so it has to be shown that way on iphone but, if we can change that, the theme is amazing.
Thank you.
Why the blog posts Image type have different size thumbnails (220×178 ?) than the blog posts Gallery where we choose featured image (220×205px) example > http://zacvanlab.com/
It just doesnt look good, how to get them all the same?
Thank you.
I've been trying to track down/delete the "..." at the end of the work excerpt in all thumbs, but I can't seem to override this. I was working in the theme_functions file, as well as the source .php file for this short-code. Any help would be great!
Thanks a bunch!
Hi there.
You need to type text in the excerpt textfield. Otherwise wordpress defaults to the begining of the description and then adds '...'
I have just uploaded the theme and imported XML content – but the site looks broken and nothing like the demo site.
Also, your support link in the help file http://pixelthemes.net/support doesn't work.
is this is a scam or something?
please write back immediately..
thanks, saahil
Hi there

Hi there
The documentation that comes with the theme should cover all these questions and includes links for wordpress beginners.
one question…how can i put a video on the full gallery? as you do on the demo? thanks!
Client logos on my homescreen are not responsive/reorienting to a mobile layout. Help?
Also, my home page is not rescaling for mobile. Is there any way you can help me with this?
Hi there
Please open a ticker on the support forum and post there a link to the pagehttp://bookofpixels.com/support/
Many thanks
Hi, I've been having a big problem with the slideshow/gallery functionality for months now. All my photos in galleries show twice in every album. Very annoying for a photography website when you have to look at the same image twice in a row, especially if it happens with every single image, not just one or two. HELP PLEASE! how can I fix this? tried re-installing everything and it does not help at all.
Hi there
Have you tried upgrading to wp 3.5.1 and installing the latest version of the theme?
Please open a ticket on the support forumhttp://bookofpixels.com/support/
make sure to include a link to the page
How do I make more than one slideshow gallery show up? I was under the impression that each of the top tabs could be links to different sections of my portfolio, different slideshows. But the admin panel it looks like the same slideshow is on every page, is that right? If so i need to find a new theme, and that should be made clear before purchasing. I've been looking through support and the forum for an hour, and tried many combinations of pages, pages with galleries, pages with portfolios, portfolios, galleries as links in the top menu with no luck. same slideshow on every page. http://jenbergren.com/blog/
Hi there
You can have different slideshows for every post or page or portfolio project just like in the demo
For example if you want a gallery called 'landscapes' to be used on a page follow these steps:
1. create a gallery called 'landscapes' by going to Galleries -> Add New
2. then create a new page and below the text editor look for a setting called 'Select the gallery that will be displayed as a fullscreen slideshow on this page' and select name of the gallery that you created at step 1.
Hello – I have opened a ticket 5 days ago with some questions re this theme on the book of pixels support page but there doesn't seem to have been any activity on the support forum for the past 12 (!) days. Really like the theme, but the lack of support/response is putting me off recommending it to anyone else…
There are some broken links in css files – pointing to /images/ instead to /img/
Looks like this developer has abandoned support for this theme. It's too bad because this theme has great potential and want to purchase it but the complete lack of support is a major deal breaker for me.
Please check out www.newzealandprojects.com the portfolio widget and portfolio page seems corrupted. Tried to register on your support site but kept on getting time out issue.
Just bought this simple theme, but your documentation is very limited. I can not find how to remove the huge image background from the blog page. It just keeps showing up.
I want my blog page to be clean with no background.
Every page I have now has a huge gallery image at the top.
So, what is this?
Anyone reading this before purchasing should ask themselves if they want good support then choose another template!
I am having trouble getting my fullscreen slideshow to appear. I'm using wordpress 3.5.1 and Immersion version 1.4. The domain is http://ishoplikeaman.com/
Thanks for your help.

|Letter to the Editor
|Saturday, April 12, 2014 8:00 PM
In October, I had surgery. I was home two days and my husband went to get my medication from the pharmacy. He brought some hamburgers home. I didn't want to eat but I did eat it. Tom Fell asleep on the couch and when he woke up, he asked if I was OK. It looked like I may have had a stroke.
Tom called the Delphos EMS right away. They were coming back from another run but one person showed up first. They got the blood sugar reading of 48 and then tried all the way to St. Rita's to get a line. My veins had collapsed and they were giving me oral medications.
When we got to the hospital, the team was waiting and got a line started. My blood sugar then was 30.
Several doctors told us that I would have died.
I thank all of you on the Delphos EMS. You are so needed by the citizens of Delphos and were so comforting and caring to Tom and me.
Thank you. God be with you always.
Bobbie and Tom Kohorst

The American Cancer Society estimates that about 186,300 men will develop prostate cancer this year.
There are more new cases of prostate cancer than breast cancer.
More deaths as well.
Yet, prostate cancer remains a more hidden disease...men don't want to get examined for it, think about it, or talk about it.
But, News 25's Lee Ranson is talking about it.
Since he found out he had prostate cancer, he's allowed cameras to follow him through treatment.
Lee is being treated for his prostate cancer at Methodist Medical center.
He and his wife, Bev, meet with his physician, Dr. Roby Lal, to go over plans for his treatment.
Lee has chosen to treat his cancer with radiation, which holds the promise of being as effect as surgery, with fewer side effects.
"During the treatment, you're not going to hear anything, you're not going to feel anything. There's no pain".
What there will be is a lot of planning and measuring.
That's because Methodist's new Image–Guided radiation treatment uses higher levels of radiation than previous treatments.
It must be very precisely aimed at the prostate....and to do that multiple images of the target area are taken.
The TomoTherapy device then shoots radiation at the prostate from 360–degrees..
"And as the table translates through the torque of the machine, it's a spiral effect..."
"So you're getting it from every angle?"
"Every conceivable angle...and from every conceivable angle you're also sparing the normal tissue structure".
"And with this new image guidance approach, we're going to image that target—the prostate—every day," said Dr. Lal.
That's every day for the next two months. And, the doctor says, Lee will be feeling the side effects...fatigue among them....although those effects are less using the TomoTherapy machine.
What we're seeing is that the side effects come later in the treatment...weeks later...when the treatment is almost over.
If Dr. Lal seems enthusiastic about the device –he admits that's true.
"It's fun to have the big toys. But the rewarding thing, you see this on the news, is to bring this technology to the clinic. This is very rewarding as a scientists, as a clinician, a physician."
We'll continue to follow Lee through his treatment.
We have more information about prostate cancer at week.com.

comment on a post No one said "Hillary lost because" of sexism over 6 years agoIt is whining. And it's pathetic. Some of you have daughters and granddaughters, and it is horrifying to think that you are raising or have raised them with this victim mentality. It would be interesting to see how many of the "oh my God, he called that girl pretty-castrate him" crowd, does volunteer work at women's shelters, at sexual assault treatment centers, at domestic violence outreach centers, at women's substance abuse centers, etc.
That would be alot more productive than complaining constantly on a blog about the "sexism monster" under the bed.

218 million adults in this country. The sun doesn't set and rise with your vote.

you need to get your hands on some updated polling data.
And that 'bus' comment is so yesterday.
comment on a post I'm an unreconciled HRC supporter. over 6 years ago
So if its not Hillary then what? Hillary is a horrible pick for vp and its not going to happen. Some of you people spend way to much time in front of the computer and not enough time in the real world where most hrc supporters are now supporting Obama. Besides, the polls now show only 6% of hrc people saying they would vote for McCain. You really need to get over yourselves. There isn't going to be any mass exodus of democrats. She was a presidential candidate who lost. Nothing new happening here. The diarist and a few other diehards treat her like some kind of quasi-girl scout troop leader for aging American women. Its pretty sad actually.

comment on a post Obama Moving DNC Operations to Chicago over 6 years ago
What a stupid thing to say. If you're a democrat, it should be refreshing to see how skillful he manages his campaign, unlike a certain politician whose name i won't mention. As a matter of fact, this decision just amplifies his savvy leadership skills.
o yeah, and I'd bet that you're a real sophisticated expert on the Chicago politic huh Hampster?
comment on a post Thinking of switching back to Obama (Apology accepted) over 6 years agoYeah, I'm sure if you send him your pathetic little laundry list of demands, he will take the day, ponder your asinine considerations, invite you to dinner and acquiesce..because he in a country of over 300 million, he needs your vote..and the drivel that goes along with it.

Sean Hannity for weeks has been promoting the "there's a tape", "there's a tape" nonsense, and consistently has guests on his show speaking the most vile mistruths about Michelle and Barack.
It is so important that these rumors be discounted as vehemently as possible.

Thank you so much for your efforts and good luck.
comment on a post I'm Voting For McCain Unless over 6 years ago
Some of the posters here really need to get a grip. Since many of the Hillary faithful have taken a moment off from 'grieving' to criticize the diary, why not take another moment to have relax and have a laugh for chrissakes.
Or if its that offensive, there is a whole cyberspace out there to continue the whole grieving, bitter, woe is me theme to its fullest...

Absolutely. I didn't mention the other stratagems used that made my blood boil over, but I have principles and values that would never allow me to vote for the GOP candidate.
comment on a post Clinton Urging Her Delegates To Support Obama over 6 years ago
This is the first time in a long while that I've been proud of Mrs. Clinton.
comment on a post Who will the Hillary haters hate now. over 6 years agois a little extreme. Alot of democrats were very disappointed in the campaign's use of sexism to divide and conquer. She manipulated womens' emotions through the constant drumbeat of her being victimized and undermined by Obama and the MSM.
She used fear to manipulate the rural voters in Appalachia, not to vote for the black guy. So yes many dems are disgusted with her tactics, however, would have voted for her in spite of all her negativity if Obama had not clinched.

comment on a post TX-SEN: Wild Swing Back Towards Cornyn? over 6 years ago
Hillary's message did not only not resonate with alot of women but the use of sexism and misogny to divide and conquer was insulting. Many women just don't relate to that kind of victimization tactic.
The reality is that Obama's message of unity and "new politics" was in total contrast to Hillary's scorched earth negativity. Many people young, old, women and men were just tired of that behavior from our politicians.

Wrap Up
Part of Lesson Plan: Breathe Easy...Plant Respiration
Activity Overview / Details
Have students return to seats after the game. Remind them to put their names on the 1/4 sheet response of their own words so you can collect them. I tell the students...Today we have learned about respiration (I take a dramatic deep breath and let it out), every one of you completes this process every day just like every plant. Respiration is simply Converting Oxygen...(breathe in loudly...then out loudly again) to Carbon Dioxide. For some of you converting oxygen to carbon dioxide is all you might accomplish in a day...others may get a little more done than that. Today when you go home and your parent asks, 'what did you do today?'...you can take a deep breath and say...I converted oxygen to carbon dioxide...again.

Warsaw Loft with Multifunctional Furniture
To maximize their small Warsaw loft, transatlantic designers Aleksander Novak-Zemplinski and Becky Nix handcrafted a fleet of double-duty furnishings.
Aleksander Novak-Zemplinski and Becky Nix met thanks to a student exchange program between the architecture schools at the University of Detroit Mercy and the Warsaw Polytechnic University of Technology. After stints working in architecture firms in Los Angeles, the couple now divides their time between Warsaw and Detroit. A little over two years ago, they moved into a roughly 1,000-square-foot apartment they bought in a spanking-new subdivision in Warsaw. "We decided to make it an experimental project," says Novak-Zemplinski. So they set up a wood shop in what would be the living room, and, to the extreme puzzlement of the neighbors, proceeded to build just about everything in the apartment themselves, by hand.
Nix: We've lived in a lot of small places. We've tried to incorporate the lessons we learned so we could really improve the space. When it's this small, you have to be organized.
Novak-Zemplinski: Our home is like a machine. You can move things, reconfigure the space.
Nix: We wanted a big living room, but if guests come, we want them to have private space. So we invented what we call the Cube. You can open it up, pull down the Murphy bed, then slide out the pocket doors to form a wall. Once the Cube is closed back up, you don't even realize the space segments.
Novak-Zemplinski: The Cube is like a little robot—it transforms into a room, then back into a big box. We have lots of robots here. Like the coffee table: Stand any of its parts upright, and they turn into barstools.
Nix: To socialize, everyone gathers in the kitchen. So we decided to make the kitchen part of the living room. It's the hearth, where you gather around. But we also wanted a library in there.
Nix: For about two years, this was a lab. We didn't have everything designed beforehand. It was always "What do you think of this?" A lot of adjustments we made onsite.
Novak-Zemplinski: We had pretty basic tools, minimal in form and purpose. So when designing the furniture, we chose simple shapes to make it as easy as possible.
Novak-Zemplinski: By American standards, the 135-square-foot bedroom is very small. For a Communist bedroom, it's huge. This is a small apartment; we wanted to keep as much open space as possible.
Nix: We don't believe you need a lot of room for a bedroom—it's just used for sleeping and…other things, as they say. We made everything in the apartment but the BoConcept sofa. The pieces we created are not of the highest quality, nor are they high design. But it was more about the process of trying and learning. It's nice to feel like you've created something. There's a story everywhere.

Thrill Jockey artists Lazer Crystal have released Love Rhombus as the delightful first single from the new album MCMLXXX which is also released this week.
Love Rhombus is accompanied by the rather surreal video, reminiscent of days gone by when tape chewing VHS machines were de rigueur and a grainy visual was far superior to seeing nothing at all!
Lazer Crystal are a three piece band from Chicago, who specialise in their own form of electronic dance punkery, along with a penchant for unique and collectible limited edition releases.
Thier work so far includes two limited selections on the collectors imprint HBSP-2X. The first "Hot Pink BMX" single was printed in an edition of 300 copies and spray painted by hand, some with custom textile covers. The following "EP1″ release was even more unique. Lazer Crystal asked several artists to contribute artwork for another 300 copy limited release.
The results were that approximately 50 people contributed designs and every single record ended up with a unique jacket. These were displayed "gallery style" for a special release on Record Store Day.
Don't be put off by the arty fartiness of the band though, Nicholas Read (electronics & vocals), Josh Johannpeter (percussion), & Mikale De Graff (vocals & electronics) produce unique and compelling music as will be discovered on their first full length album MCMLXXX.
Sometimes it sounds like Joy Division, sometimes like Crystal Castles, sometimes like a broken Nintendo game, and one song even sounded like the soundtrack to The Lost Boys, but essentially this is the sound of Lazer Crystal.
The album is available in CD format and also as a collectors vinyl album, limited to 1,000 copies only. Listen before you buy at Thrill Jockey – you will not be disappointed.

I recently wrote about Patch, the Hemingway cat we adopted when she had serious medical problems after giving birth. She had two kittens. This is one of them, Jean, a quiet cat who loves the warmth the satellite TV receiver produces. Like her mother, she has very soft, rabbit-like fur. She accepts attention but doesn't really seek it out, at least from me; she prefers my older daughter, and misses her when she's away at college, as she is now.

Back to the 70s, Again
Posted in economics, Politics, tagged dollar, inflation, money supply, taxes on February 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I've worried before about the similarities between the present and the 1970s. Allan Meltzer sees the parallels, and worries that the Federal Reserve is duplicating the errors of the 1970s that led to stagflation. He foresees significant inflation, as do I. Rich Karlgaard prescribes the cure—slowing the growth of the money supply, restoring strength to the dollar, and cutting taxes—that worked to cure us back in the early 1980s. It's an excellent prescription, but is anybody listening? Obama and Clinton offer the opposite prescription, and McCain, while saying some of the right things, seems not to understand their importance.
Locke v. Rousseau
Posted in liberty, philosophy, Politics, rights, tagged Locke, political philosophy, rights, Rousseau on February 28, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Jonah Goldberg captures the political half of the course I'm now teaching precisely:
I think the fundamental difference, the difference that defines the difference between American, Anglo-American conservatives and European welfare states, leftists or liberals, is Locke versus Rousseau. Every philosophical argument boils down to John Locke versus Jacques Rousseau.
Locke holds that we have natural rights, rights that inhere in us as human beings independently of our being members of a political community. Rousseau denies it, maintaining that all rights come from the state. This has sweeping consequences for the legitimacy of government power. Locke holds that government authority is legitimate only within certain limits; it is bounded by our natural rights, which we construct governments to preserve. Since Rousseau recognizes no such rights, he recognizes no such bounds. For him, government may exercise authority over anything to promote the common good. That doesn't mean we have no rights; we have the rights the government allots to us, and no others.
Forgotten Americans
Posted in Politics, tagged Politics, responsibility on February 28, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Victor Davis Hanson talks about the forgotten Americans, people who take on mortgages they can afford, don't borrow against the value of their houses, don't go deeply into debt to buy cars, boats, vacation houses, etc., and, in short, live their lives responsibly. These are the people Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama want to tax to bail out those who are in some cases unlucky but in many more cases irresponsible.
I don't know how many forgotten Americans there are out there, but I have a feeling the answer may well determine the next election.
The Cost of a College Education
Posted in economics, Education, tagged economics, Education on February 27, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Ilya Somin makes the case against government subsidies for college tuition at the Volokh Conspiracy. His point is that the higher-than-inflation increases in the cost of college over the past forty years are justified by the even greater increases in expected returns on a college education. According to a 2002 Census Bureau study, a college graduate, on average, earns $1,000,000 more than a high school graduate over his/her lifetime.
An Islamic Reformation…
Posted in Religion, tagged interpretation, Islam, reformation on February 27, 2008 | 2 Comments »
…may be one step closer. BBC reports (HT: Jihad Watch):
Turkey is preparing to publish a document that represents a revolutionary reinterpretation of Islam – and a controversial and radical modernisation of the religion….
Its supporters say the spirit of logic and reason inherent in Islam at its foundation 1,400 years ago are being rediscovered. Some believe it could represent the beginning of a reformation in the religion….
The argument is that Islamic tradition has been gradually hijacked by various – often conservative – cultures, seeking to use the religion for various forms of social control….
This may challenge radical and militant versions of Islam, but may also bring Islamic theory and practice into closer harmony in places such as East Africa, where Islam as generally understood and practiced has been a doctrine stressing not only submission to the one God but also the equality and dignity of human beings. (See, for example, Kai Kresse, Philosophizing in Mombasa.) The Muslims I have known, mostly from Turkey, Pakistan, and India, seem to understand their religion similarly.
One of the most significant features of the emerging Turkish reinterpretation is the rejection of the principle of abrogation:
They have also taken an even bolder step – rejecting a long-established rule of Muslim scholars that later (and often more conservative) texts override earlier ones.
This is crucial to combating the militant interpretation, since later texts are more violent than earlier ones. It also makes a great deal of intellectual sense. It is easy to point to seeming contradictions in the text of the Koran. The response has traditionally been that earlier verses expressed Allah's commands specific to a circumstance, but that the last commands given should be understood as applying for all subsequent times and places. At first glance, this makes little sense. Why aren't all the commands (on topics on which they vary, at any rate) relative to circumstances? If Allah's commands can change with the situation, as they evidently can, given the texts, why doesn't applying them to any contemporary situation require a careful comparison of current circumstances to those in which the Koranic commands were given? Suppose I tell you today to open the window, tell you tomorrow to close it, and afterward say nothing about it at all. It seems natural to ask what changed between those two days in order to discern my rationale before proclaiming what my command would be on some future day. It would be bizarre to conclude that I had ordered the window to remain closed for all time.
The Turkish reinterpretation could thus do much to reintegrate reason and faith in Islam.

May I Have Another Doctor?
Posted in Equality, tagged discrimination, Islam, medicine on February 26, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Muslim medical workers in Great Britain are refusing to sanitize their forearms for religious reasons. To wash according to guidelines, some Muslim women say, forces them to bare their forearms up to the elbow, which, they think, is forbidden by Islam. (HT: Lydia McGrew) Dr. Semmelweis discovered the significance of sanitizing hands and arms in 1847—some 1,215 years after the death of Mohammed.
Requiring medical workers to sanitize appears to be facially neutral. Can it reasonably be held to constitute a form of discrimination? Arguably, it is akin to requiring employees to work on the Sabbath. The US Supreme Court, in Estate of Thornton v. Caldor, Inc. (1985), struck down a Connecticut law that forbade employers from forcing employees to work on what they considered to be the Sabbath as an unconstitutional establishment of religion. There is no general obligation to accommodate the religious beliefs of others. Allowing employees to take days of religious significance off, moreover, doesn't pose health risks. The best possible substitute for sanitizing hands and arms may still expose patients to a higher risk of infection.
I have three questions:
- If hospitals have to hire doctors and nurses who refuse to sanitize their hands, do bus companies have to hire Amish drivers who refuse to operate buses, or people who, for ideological reasons, refuse to obey speed limits?
- If hospitals allow Muslim medical workers to decline to wash, will patients be entitled to ask to be attended by non-Muslim workers? Or will that be discriminatory—even if being attended by Muslim workers correlates with infection?
- If this happens and establishes a precedent: is there a religion that forbids grading papers?

Empanada Pastry:
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter
3/4 cup beer (light beer)
1 egg, beaten (for the pastry)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for dusting the work surface and rolling out the pastry)
1 egg, beaten (to use as an eggwash to brush the Empanadas with before baking)
Chicken Filling:
1 whole (uncooked) chicken breast, cut into small chunks
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt (not table salt)
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
2 cups par-boiled mixed vegetables (small diced carrots, sweet corn kernels, string beans, and broccoli florets separated into small pieces)
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup evaporated milk
small pinch of nutmeg
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
salt and white pepper according to taste
1 1/4 cup grated gruyere cheese
For the Chicken Filling:
1. Marinate chicken pieces in Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and white pepper. Let it marinate for 15 minutes inside the fridge.
2. Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Gently saute the garlic.
3. Once the garlic is soft, add the chicken into the pan and saute for about 5 minutes or until the chicken is cooked.
4. Add the 2 tablespoons of flour and cook for about a minute just to get rid of the raw flour taste. Add the evaporated milk, Dijon mustard and a small pinch of nutmeg and stir the bechamel sauce.
5. Mix in the par-boiled vegetables and cook in the sauce until tender and finally add the grated gruyere cheese. Season with salt and white pepper according to taste. Turn off heat and set the pan aside.
For the Empanada Pastry: Pre-heat oven to 375'F.
1. Sift together the 4 cups of flour, sugar and salt.
2. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture.
3. When the butter is well incorporated into the flour (mixture resembles fine bread crumbs), add the beer and pre-beaten egg.
4. Gather and form the pastry mixture into a ball of dough. This dough does not require resting.
5. Turn out the dough onto a well floured work surface and divide the dough in halves. Form each halve into a fat cylinder and cut and divide into 4 pieces (8 Empanadas for this recipe).
6. Roll out and flatten each piece of dough into 1/4 inch thick disk.
7. Put about a heaping serving spoon of chicken mixture on the half side of the rolled out pastry. Fold the other half over and run your fingers around the folded dough, and over the mound of filling to seal the dough together and get rid of air pockets inside the pastry.
8. Using a rolling pastry cutter, trim the edges off the Empanada. Then using a fork, crimp the edges to totally seal the pastry pocket.
9. Place the empanadas onto a parchment lined baking sheet and brush with an eggwash. Using a fork, prick the surface of each piece once to create an air vent.
10. Bake empanadas in a 375'F oven for 40-45 minutes or until these pastries are golden brown.
Makes 8 6-inch Empanadas

CHATTANOOGA, TN (WRCB) -- Hamilton County Jail staff discovered water damage in both the Corrections Training Room and the Commissary area of the Hamilton County Jail building early Saturday morning around 6:30 a.m.
The staff was advised that some construction work being done in the immediate area surrounding the jail resulted in a underground water leak.
After consultation between Tennessee American Water Company and other utility companies, the damaged water main is being repaired and this will not affect the water supply to the Hamilton County Jail.
The water damage found in the Corrections Training Room and Commissary area is being cleaned. At this time the problem has not impacted the jail population.

The game isn't even over and yet it is. It is 12:49 pacific as I type and the game is decidedly in favor of the Chiefs. We've been dominated in every phase of the game and the score reflects that.
Alex Smith has had NOWHERE to throw the ball with decent pass protection. I know he's been sacked four times (so far, oops he just got sacked and fumbled as I type) but when he has had time to throw nobody is getting open. The defense has given up yards in huge chunks both passing and rushing which surprises me. The rush D is supposed to be our strength and Charles has a ridiculous rush avg so far. With Atlanta and Philadelphia looming up ahead in the next few weeks we could be looking at 0-5.
So, is it time to panic? I saw hell mutha .......... yes. So much for making the playoffs. And don't anyone say it is too early to decide the season because it is week 3, we are 0-3, and the shedule is not any easier than what we've had with Seattle and Kansas City for 2 of our first 3 games.
Anyone see any glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel? Or is the season pretty much over and time to start looking forward to the 2011 draft?

Albany - A man arrested for robbing an Albany bank on Monday still has not been charged for a similar crime that took place more two weeks ago. 26-year old Kelvin Leroy was run down by Dougherty County Sheriff's Deputies and Albany Police Monday morning as he drove away from Security Bank on East Ogelthorpe.
He was captured on Library Lane still wearing a mask, with a gun, and a backpack filled with the bank's money. Police say Leroy was driving a Blue Dodge Neon he carjacked from Hidden Oaks Apartments.
He's also a suspect in another bank robbery and carjacking from that same complex on November 20th, but police have not charged him for that crime.

Maybe we'll get to see Nick Diaz vs. Georges St. Pierre after all.
Dana White confirmed to MMA Weekly that, should Diaz defeat B.J. Penn at UFC 137, he will indeed get a shot at the Welterweight title against the winner of Georges St. Pierre vs. Carlos Condit.
Diaz was of course originally set to face St. Pierre in the main event of UFC 137, but after repeatedly no showing press conferences, White pulled him from the match, giving the title shot to Condit instead. Days later, Diaz was back in for the show, but this time facing B.J. Penn in the semi-main event.
For Diaz, this is a huge break, but still a tough challenge. Penn is a former Welterweight champion who is currently ranked #7 in the division in the USA Today / SB Nation Consensus Rankings. He's 1-0-1 at 170 since his return to the division, and is always a threat to anyone in the division. Diaz is currently ranked at #4, and is undefeated since 2007. But Penn represents a real step up from the competition former Strikeforce champion Diaz has faced as of late.
Fans were excited about St. Pierre vs. Diaz when it was first announced. If both men win later this month and find themselves on a collision course once again, that excitement will only increase after recent events. In the end, we may not only get the match we want, but with even more fuel behind it.
Or B.J. Penn could spoil it all (or, to be fair, Carlos Condit). We'll see at UFC 137.

Circling The Globe
By Sherry Ott
Circles exist throughout the world, everywhere you look. Yet many times we don't see the world through shapes, or geometric patterns.
Take a Photographic journey through various countries to see the people, buildings, food, games, vehicles, and natural wonders that are all made of circles.
About the Author
On September 8, 2006, Sherry Ott began a journey which would take her to 23 countries over 16 months. Having worked in business for 14 years, she decided to give it all up, and see what was outside of her 6 by 8 foot office.
Sherry has kept an extensive travel blog throughout all of her travels abroad. She provides a light hearted look at the ups and downs of long term travel while living out of one suitcase. Read about her trek up Kilimanjaro, volunteer work in India, cooking in Italy, and camping in the Sahara desert with all of her accompanying photography.

Two taken to hospital after second crash on busy road
6:30am Friday 27th June 2014 in News
TWO people were taken to hospital after a crash between a lorry and a car on the A4130 near Didcot yesterday morning.
The accident happened as police appealed for witnesses to an accident on the same road on Monday which left a motorcyclist fighting for his life.
Paramedics were called to the scene of yesterday's crash at the roundabout with Collett at about 8.40am and the patients were taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.
No details of the injuries were last night available.
Anyone with information about Monday afternoon's crash at Milton Heights involving a blue Vauxhall Astra and a green Kawasaki motorbike should call police on 101.

Brad Pitt Will Save Us From 'World War Z' – The Daily Swoon
Brad Pitt's Malibu Mansion Snatched Up By… Yup, Ellen DeGeneres
Brad Pitt may have just sold his mansion in Malibu, CA, but Ellen DeGeneres spent no time in waiting to snag the home.
DeGeneres forked over a cool $12 million for Pitt's former property, which overlooks the Pacific Ocean and includes two separate homes, a swimming pool, tennis court and private beach access.
Jennifer Aniston: 'The Break Up' Helped Me Get Over Brad Pitt Divorce [VIDEO]

It turns out it was also a therapeutic experience for the actress, who filmed the movie not long after her 2005 divorce from Brad Pitt.

Edwin Jackson of the Washington Nationals pitches in the first inning against the St. Louis Cardinals during Game Three of the National League Division Series. (Photo by Rob Carr/Getty Images)
Target: Edwin Jackson, RHP
Type of move: Free agency
2012 stats: 10-11, 4.03 ERA, 168 Ks, 58 walks
In Washington, Jackson was a pretty average pitcher, as evidenced by his numbers. A 4.03 in the pitcher-friendly National League? Meh. He's had some better years, including the previous two seasons when he was sub-4.00 ERA with the White Sox and Cardinals. He also threw the most unimpressive no-hitter in baseball history in 2011 when he threw more than 150 pitches and walked eight batters en route to the no-no.
If you could get Jackson on a cheap 1- or 2-year deal, then that's fine. But with the way the pitching market has gone this offseason that's not very likely. You can find better options here, including in-house candidates, to fill out the rotation. And keep in mind, Colby Lewis should be back in June. Steer clear of this one.

It's getting hot quick! Where do you go to cool down? The nice cold air conditioned house I'm assuming, right? Same thing for the fish, they like going to their cool and cozy mangroves or other structure that gives them protection when the blaring sun rises. Look for the bait and you'll find the fish early in the morning. Mullet, glass minnows, small fry, greenies – I have seen them mixed together and it's like a buffet line for the fish.
I like to start off with a topwater plug and work it at various speeds until you find out what the fish are hitting on, once you do – keep working it the same way. If you're also not getting any hits, change the color, you just have to find out what they're hitting on. On a calmer day, go with a less noisy topwater plug so as to not spook the fish but just attract them. If a chop kicks up then have a higher pitch rattle in the lure.
Early on, the inshore slam (trout/redfish/snook) should be in the shallower water amongst the grass and bait, then as the sun rises they'll move out to deeper water. However, sometimes you'll find some fish that act differently. As I was fishing the North Palm Beach kayak tournament this past weekend, I would drift upon trout sunbathing themselves on the top of the water column, backs almost fully out of the water, in 2′ depth. I caught a few in this shallow of water in the middle of the day using a weedless Logic Lure rig, chicken color, with a sliding 1/16 of an ounce weight.
Here's a few pictures of the North Palm Beach tournament from this past weekend, they had both an offshore division and an inshore kayak division. The wahoo bite has been hot as many were weighed in, with a couple 50 pounders tipping the scale.

Football 'key to my recovery'
– Chris, resident in Chapter 1 hostel in Torquay
I became homeless because of alcohol and legal highs.
I've been having panic attacks and bad anxiety since I was 17. I have depression. I used to drink to block out the anxiety, and take legal highs to lift my depression.
It meant me losing jobs, and my home.
I now know exercise is the best thing for depression. That's why football, and all sports activities, are important to me.
When I move into my own place, I'll still carry on with the weekly football sessions through the hostel because I love it.

Canucks Lose Game 5… PANIC!
Well, did anyone see that coming? After spanking the Canucks 7-2 in game 4, they followed that up with another beat down in game 5. So here we are, nervous, panicking. Is it justified? Absolutely yes. Chicago has all of the momentum and Vancouver will need to turn it around.
Is this a dream or a nightmare!? Canucks vs Blackhawks 1st round preview
It took the Blackhawks losing on the final day of the regular season as well as the Dallas Stars choking versus the Minnesota Wild, but here we have it, Canucks versus Blackhawks for the third year in a row. Like most Canucks fans, I was cheering for the Dallas Stars to win their final game, […]
Canucks sit back and wait for Blackhawks, Ducks, Predators… Who do you want?
As you've no doubt heard by now, the Vancouver Canucks have locked up the President's Trophy as the NHL's top team in the regular season. We know this because they absolutely took the night off in their first meaningless game against the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday night! But I digress. They're the top dogs, which means we know that they will play whichever team ends up in 8th place in the conference. In case you haven't seen the NHL standings in a while, here they are:
Canucks clinch first place, President's Trophy… But what does it really mean?
With an impressive 3-1 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday night, the Canucks clinched first place in the entire National Hockey League. In case you're counting at home, that's the first time in 40 years that we can say the Vancouver Canucks are President's Trophy winners. It's a nice feather in their cap, and nice to have won it for the first time. Enjoy it Canucks fans… for now.
Are YOU Afraid of the Chicago Blackhawks?
The Chicago Blackhawks are back in town! Slated to play the Canucks on Friday, Jonathan Toews and company are currently 8th in the conference, which of course means "if the regular season ended today" the Canucks and Blackhawks would meet in the 1st round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs! So what do you think of that Canucks fans? Does that worry you? I have to admit, it worries me a little.
Time to load up? Would you trade Raymond, Ballard and Schneider for Iginla?
Let me immediately state that this is not a trade rumour. Nobody has suggested that the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames are talking trade or that Mike Gillis is shopping Mason Raymond, Keith Ballard or Cory Schneider. Even new Flames general manager Jay Feaster has said that he is not interested in trading the face of the franchise, Jarome Iginla. While we can choose to believe or not believe Jay Feaster, it's still unlikely that he would trade Iginla to Vancouver given that they are a division rival. The point of asking this question centres around a bigger question. When (if ever) is the time to load up, trade for a player to put your team over the hump, while sacrificing some of your future? I think this year might be the year and a Raymond/Ballard/Schneider for Iginla deal is at least worth a thought.
Do the Canucks miss KYLE WELLWOOD?!
Last night's shootout loss to the Chicago Blackhawks brings the Canucks record to 0-2 in shootouts this year, which begs the question: do the Canucks miss Kyle Wellwood? Now, I'm not suggesting that replacing Wellwood with Malhotra this year on the third line was a poor decision, but they sure do miss his shootout prowess. Remarkably, Canucks shooters haven't been the main problem, that distinction goes to Roberto Luongo and his .000 SV% in shootouts this year. Luongo has a decent save percentage all-time, so he should get over his early season shootout troubles.
Henrik Gets the C, Larscheid Calls it Quits and more!
What an eventful first game of the season. In the first game of their 40th anniversary season, the Canucks brought back all living members of their inaugural team. Pat Quinn received the biggest ovation, a classy gesture by the fans at Rogers Arena. From there, Henrik Sedin was officially named captain by receiving the C from the first captain in Canucks history, Orland Kurtenbach. I thought it was a nice ceremony that was done with a lot of class.
Brendan Morrison to Tryout for Canucks
The Canucks announced yesterday that former Canuck Brendan Morrison will be trying out for the team in training camp (related: Peter Schaefer is also on a tryout). This is interesting on a number of fronts. To start, Morrison will play in the preseason in a Canucks jersey and could make the team, be cut or sign with any other team before the start of the regular season. So quite clearly, nothing is guaranteed.
Introducing Geraldz Diduck – Round 2 Preview
The so-called "parity" of the salary cap era is on display, as the three top seeds are now eliminated in the East. But what about the parity between the West and the East? It seems as though the only strong team remaining in the East is the Pittsburgh Penguins and compared to their counterparts in the West; San Jose, Chicago, Detroit and Vancouver, they look overmatched.

Via: Business Wire | News Archive | Tags: Hulu, Programming, Content
It's certainly nice that we have companies like Netflix and Hulu entering the original programming fray; it just screams out that webseries are viable; that the people making them can get them to a wider audience. There are tons of webseries out there, some are well produced some are even made by really famous people yet they haven't got the recognition they need. Let's hope Netflix and Hulu can successfully open their doors to these aspiring producers.
And yes, I may pay for this type of stuff in the future but only if there's a major draw, a really major draw that deserves all of my money. The webseries that Hulu and Netflix provide can be good and there may be some people but no one really knows whether or not they want to subscribe to a service for a couple of webseries. (Arrested Development included.) With that major draw that's the pinnacle of drama, winning awards left and right; it'll guarantee subscribers who will be attracted to similar webseries and guarantee similar success; just look at HBO.
