Andrea Mitchell: Hillary Was Right--There Really Was A Great Right Wing Conspiracy
Andrea Mitchell famously said she had to catch her breath after Foster Friess's Bayer aspirin line last week. Well, call me a bit verklempt myself this morning, after Mitchell said on today's Morning Joe that:
1. She felt "nostalgia" for Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign. 2. The opposition to Clinton was "vicious". 3. She hates to revert to the "great right wing conspiracy", but "there really was a group out there . . . There really was an enemy." Video after the jump.
Mitchell's breathtaking remarks came during a Morning Joe segment on a documentary about Clinton produced by Barak Goodman. Watch Mitchell buy into perhaps the biggest smear on conservatives of the last 20 years.
ANDREA MITCHELL: Well, I was struck by a couple of things. First of all, the nostalgia of seeing the '92 campaign, and the way, as Dee Dee Myers put it in your film that he viewed, Bill Clinton viewed, every opportunity as an opportunity to reclaim himself to come back, the "Comeback Kid" as he defined himself even after coming in second in New Hampshire.
But also the anger and the sort of vicious nature of the opposition. You had an interview, bit of an interview, with Lucianne Goldberg, who of course played such a big part in the unravelling of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. And she talked about, so viscerally, about how the wife was so horrible, and the wife had no sense of humor. Anyone who has known Hillary Clinton then and now knows that despite everything that they went through, that's not who Hillary Clinton is. And it was just this, I hate to revert to the great right wing conspiracy, but there was really a group out there who were not going to let him succeed, and he of course played in to that with his own mistakes. But there really was an enemy group out there who just wanted to take him down.

The only enemy Ms. Mitchell is in your limited bigoted mind.
I understand your deep seeded need to protect the far left and Obama agenda but you are on the verge of a psychotic episode. The conspiracy issue that you dream up is about as valid as ŌĆ£little green menŌĆØ. The idea that anyone may disagree with your agenda means that they are scheming against you; I would suggest a conversation with a good psychiatrist and maybe a large dose of reality outside of the far left fantasy world in which you live. Try associating with other not in the same Kool-Aid club as yourself as a start.

Bill Clinton is the ONLY PRESIDENT in the past 80 years
Submitted by AlessandroMachi on Wed, 02/22/2012 - 3:35am.
Bill Clinton is the ONLY PRESIDENT in the past 80 years who actually lowered the yearly budget deficit each and every year he was in office, the only president in the past 80 years to do so.
Bill Clinton left office more popular than when he went in, again, the only president in the past 80 years to accomplish this feat as well.
Rather than be outraged by Andrea Mitchell's comment, why not just understand why it could be true.
First off, George Bush and his connections were absolutely offended and disgusted that they lost out to the governor of one of the poorest states in the country, Arkansas. George Bush even insulted Bill Clinton during one of the debates over how poor education was in Arkansas, that is how much contempt George Bush had for Arkansas and Bill Clinton.
Point two, George Bush and friends were absolutely stunned that after having a 93 percent approval rating just 20 months before re-election (and right after Desert Storm), that anybody could beat him.
Point three, Republican politicians were apoplectic when Bill Clinton started using the best ideas from BOTH SIDES of the political spectrum, and unfortunately, they felt Mr. Clinton was taking too much credit, and that really upset them.
And that last point would explain why of the original 12 Republican politicians who witch hunted Bill Clinton, at least HALF were having their own affairs and at least 2 or 3 stepped down when they were outed.
How many of you would admit in court you were having an affair if the only goal of the accusation was to tarnish your reputation? The Clinton Derangement syndrome that exists in about 40% of the ultra hard core republicans may just be the reason that Barack Obama wins this November.
You all don't get that there is a HUGE fracture in the democratic party over the fraud and corruption that was required to get Barack Obama past Hillary Clinton in 2008. You all would have been much better off with Hillary Clinton as president right now versus Barack Obama.
Santorum hit a home run when he ridiculed Bill Schiefer on Face the Nation by stating that nobody in the media questioned how 20 years of Barack Obama listening to anti america sermons could have affected Obama, yet now the media was going after Santorum over a comment a donor made.
That one moment, that one special moment when a republican politician actually had the audacity and conviction to start ridiculing the media for how they completely mishandled the 2008 democratic coverage has me seriously considering voting for Santorum if he is the republican nominee this fall.

Right wing conspiracy against the Clintons
Submitted by AlessandroMachi on Wed, 02/22/2012 - 3:52am.
If the republicans could win the presidency in November, but it would require reviewing the 2008 democratic nomination process and revealing how Hillary Clinton was unfairly treated by her own party, which might make her look like a martyr to the country, could you all handle that?
If you say no, then you just proved that there is a right wing conspiracy against the Clintons so hateful they would rather lose the election this fall then make Hillary Clinton look good so they could win the nomination.
Oh the irony of that.

Santorum hits a home run when talking about 2008...
Submitted by AlessandroMachi on Wed, 02/22/2012 - 4:46am.
This site just ran an article along with the video of Santorum ridiculing the 2008 media for not going after Obama as hard as they were going after Santorum for a comment made by his donor.
There are literally dozens upon dozens of examples of how corrupt MSNBC's coverage of the 2008 DEMOCRATIC race was. If Republican candidates knew what those moments were, they could bring them out whenever the media went over the line in their generally biased coverage.
But then that would make Hillary Clinton look good, and apparently republicans with Clinton Derangement syndrome would rather lose to Obama then have to paint Hillary Clinton in a positive light to win the November election.

Pardon me, but do please tell me where in the following that there is a "vast" or a "conspiracy" or even any semblance of a "right wing" in this country:
There has been plenty of discourse over the least three days about the fiftieth anniversary of John Glenn's orbital flight (I was in eighth grade).
Let's review how the space program has fared against left-wing programs over the years.
Back in the mid-'60's, even as NASA was building the great Saturn V moon rocket, its annual budget hovered close to 5.25 billion. But even then health care and entitlements were about thirty-three billion, leaving our "land a man on the moon and return him safely to the earth" effort at close to 14% of the total.
Fast forward to 1993 and NASA, now at 14.5 billion, was taking plenty of heat from the socialized medicine types claiming it was hurting their budget so much you'd think that they would have been hard pressed for the health care/entitlements coalition to reach 24 billion. Try 770 billion. At that point the combination of health care/entitlements with NASA put the space budget at not even 2% of the total.
The following year would be definitive. NASA had dropped to 14 billion (under your buddy-boy Clinton) and fraud - just FRAUD - in Medicare and Medicaid was 16 billion, yet the socialized medicine apologists explained how small of a fraction of the total that the fraud represented!
By 1998, it was instructive to check out what NASA's budget would become 14% of the combined total with, and at 13 billion that figure would be close to 85 billion. Just add up the amount the country spent on illicit narcotics that year ($38 billion) with the amount of law enforcement dedicated to fighting narcotics (37 billion) and the amount spent on pornography that year (10 billion), and that's what NASA was about 14% of. (Congratulations, country.)
Yet that figure 85 billion was familiar that year for another reason - in the days before the break-up of Microsoft that would be Bill Gates' personal fortune.
If what happened between 1993 and 1998 had been extrapolated to 2006 NASA's budget would have been exceeded by both pornography and Bill Gates' annual income.
In 2009 fraud in Medicare was 60 billion, fraud in Medicaid was 60 billion and fraud in the Bernie Madoff scandal was another 60 billion. NASA, at 18 billion, was one tenth of fraud that year.
Where's the "vast" or "conspiracy" or "right wing" in all of that, Alessandro?????

Oh goody! I treated so many Democrats that year for acute depressive episodes that I had to add another psychiatrist on LT (locum tenens) to deal with the overload. Then came 2000 and the BDS (really acute depressive episode) patients came crying back when Sore Loserman went down the toilet. And for 2004, it was a wonderful end of the year as the same old suspects showed up on my door yet again gnashing their teeth and wailing that Kerry had actually won because the exit polls said so.
I love the VRWC thing. It brings out the more psychotic among the liberal denizens. Good for business in my psychiatry practice side.

by the candidates, the GOP mainstream and of course the Tea Party common folks. Strike back at this stupid lame "attacks" comments and point out, regularly, how the media is the mouth piece for the dems.
Every day, speak up against the lies and gross misinformation spewed by the media and the dems, and keep hammering the media to PROVE their point(s).
Until and unless the GOP and the wimpy staffs of our "honorable" congressmen, speak up and shout from the roof tops what is really true, and often enough, the dems will hold the 'high' ground (as far as the media is concerned).
There should be a loud and immediate response, and often by many, everytime a dem says something stupid (ok, everything they say is stupid) there should be a rebuttle, and no backing down from the fight!

ŌĆóSupport the Second Amendment (over 50% of US population)
*Evangelicalism is a Protestant Christian movement which began in Great Britain in the 1730s[1] and gained popularity in the United States during the series of Great Awakenings of the 18th and 19th century. Its key commitments are: (1)The need for personal conversion (or being "born again") (2)A high regard for biblical authority, especially biblical inerrancy (3)An emphasis on teachings that proclaim the saving death and resurrection of the Son of God, Jesus Christ.[2] (4)Actively expressing and sharing the gospel

Classic bias
Submitted by Dizzy23 on Tue, 02/21/2012 - 1:40pm.
This brings to my mind a classic example of bias. Ms. Mitchell says "anyone who has known Hillary ..." So she probably considers Mrs. Clinton a friend. I know they've done a lot of traveling together over the years. Which tells me that Ms. Mitchell is totally incapable of covering anything about Mrs. Clinton in an objective manner. So Ms. Mitchell should not be allowed to cover Mrs. Clinton. Pure and simple. Also, while I don't usually make comments about people's appearances, doesn't Ms. Mitchell look just like the Joker? Scary.

pressure against someone with different views. How can she be
unaware of the evil being directed by mediamatters.org, Geo Soros,
the unions and other leftists against Fox News, Target, Koch Bros,
CPAC, Glenn Beck? The left never wants to debate the issues, but
only to silence opposing opinions. I was looking forward to a discussion
of Buchanan's book hoping to hear the reasons why a shift to
minority/majority would be such a good thing. Msnbc can hardly
contain its excitement over the coming end to a white majority. I
would like to share the enthusiasm but alas no one has ever articulated
the reasons to celebrate. The vast left-wing conspiracy far surpasses
anything the right could even envision and it has the WH and union thugs to carry out its nefarious plots.

This coming directly from the source (Dems and msm) who successfully convinced the country that the economic crash in 2008 was all the fault of George W. Bush. These same people have successfully covered up Obama's failings and transgressions his entire time in office. What did gasoline cost when Obama assumed office? What does it cost now? When gas prices spiked under Bush, it was all his fault and people were "suffering" to no end. Gas spikes under Obama, apparently, harm nobody really--not to any significant degree. The fact these gaseous minions of the poltical left have the nerve to get on tv and talk about a "vast right wing coinspiracy" makes me nauseous.

Some Things You Were Wrong About

Some Things You Were Wrong About
Contrary to popular perceptions, things arenŌĆÖt always what they appear to be, especially when it comes to politics.
Politicians and media commentators have a unique ability to reinterpret reality so that, by the time theyŌĆÖre finished with their spinning, itŌĆÖs difficult to distinguish the real from the fantastical and truth from baldfaced lies. They donŌĆÖt change whatŌĆÖs real and whatŌĆÖs true but they often succeed in so muddying the waters that the average observer doesnŌĆÖt see the difference between reality, truth, and prevarication.
A classic case in point is former President Bill Clinton who apparently confused his fellow Democrats to such an extent that lying under oath was not an impeachable offense serious enough to find him guilty as charged. Every Democrat senator, even those who had denounced his actions, voted in 1998 to acquit.
If nothing else, Democrats stick together.
Obama White House chief flack, Jay Carney, knows the Chicago art of deliberate confusion, obfuscation, and subterfuge as if he were born to the task.
Despite all contradictory evidence, Carney made the startling claim at a press briefing that the president didnŌĆÖt really reject the Keystone XL pipeline. The proposed project, which would have funneled millions of barrels of Canadian oil into the United States and relieved the price pressure on heating oil and gasoline, failed because those rascally Republicans made it impossible for Obama to approve Keystone.
And here we cynics thought Obama was catering to his wacko environmental buddies!
Even ABCŌĆÖs Jake Tapper was incredulous. Tapper asked Carney, ŌĆØHow can you say that . . . if the President turned down the Keystone pipeline? And you blame the Republicans for making it political.ŌĆØ
The White House Press SecretaryŌĆÖs byzantine explanation for his reality-bending is too complex to summarize here.
MSNBCŌĆÖs Andrea Mitchell is as committed a Clintonian supporter as Nina Burleigh but, instead of offering the 42nd president oral sex like Burleigh, offered an amazing, retroactive defense of the Clinton clan.
Commenting on PBSŌĆÖs surprisingly-honest production of ŌĆ£Clinton,ŌĆØ Mitchell, who never encountered a Clinton she didnŌĆÖt love, said she felt ŌĆ£nostalgiaŌĆØ for Bill ClintonŌĆÖs 1992 presidential campaign, denounced the opposition to Clinton as ŌĆ£vicious,ŌĆØ and bemoaned the actual existence of HillaryŌĆÖs fabrication of a ŌĆ£vast right wing conspiracy. . . There really was an enemy.ŌĆØ
No one expects objectivity from most MSNBC commentators but that political paranoia, articulated without a shred of proof of the existence of any conservative conspirators, is so far over the top that one suspects Mitchell was reciting from the Clinton playbook.
How any conspirator could plant semen on Monica LewinskyŌĆÖs blue dress, could inspire the Comeback Kid to parse the meaning of the verb ŌĆ£is,ŌĆØ or could make MitchellŌĆÖs hero lie under oath is beyond me, unless that Democrat thing about fudging reality is considered.
That same studied unreality is evidently a major factor in how the Obama administration is dealing with the unemployment problem and the American economy. With little concrete evidence to support either contention, weŌĆÖre told both are improving, a view comparable to VP BidenŌĆÖs characterization of 2010 as the year of a ŌĆ£Summer of Recovery.ŌĆØ
The president keeps boasting about somehow creating millions of jobs with his $787 billion stimulus although no one seems to know what and where they are. . .

TROY, N.Y. - A Troy man was arraigned Wednesday morning on charges of predatory sexual assault, in one of the worst cases of child sexual abuse Troy Police say they have ever seen.
A two-month investigation led police to arrest 42-year-old Levora Green Tuesday night. Police say Green attacked several victims, all under the age of 18, between June 2010 and December 2011 in different areas around Troy.
Police say Green had inappropriate sexual relations with at least five boys whom they have identified between the ages of 12 and 16-years-old. They say he would lure the victims into his home with alcohol and marijuana before taking advantage of them.
An acquaintance of Green came to police last fall to alert them of the offenses.
Green is charged with Predatory Sexual Assault, a felony. Troy Police Captain John Cooney says the case will likely go to a Grand Jury in Rensselaer County Court.
Troy police say the investigation is continuing, and there may be more victims. Police ask anyone with information to give them a call at 270-4426.

On a personal note, I want to thank everybody on Big Cat Country for allowing me to come in and write this past season. I realized a few days ago that it's been about 8 or 9 months that I've spent on the site. I started out as just a commenter, around week 6 of the regular season and enjoyed the back and forth. Then I thought "What the heck? I have something to say about the Jags." so I started writing some little fan posts. Then Alfie made me a contributor and I'd pipe in every now and then with whatever little story I thought I'd like to write. I know there are plenty of people who have thanked me for my writing as well as some who have trashed me for it. I appreciate all of it. The complements are great and honestly, if the negative comments bothered me, I wouldn't be a very good writer.
Sadly, I'll be leaving the site in a couple of weeks, not because I'm tired of the atmosphere or anything, but for a few exciting reasons. First off, starting August 28th, I'll be travelling abroad to Israel, where I'll be teaching English in the small city of Rehovot. I'll be there for ten months and I'll be rooting for the team just like all you other Jaguars fans out there. Of course, unlike most of you, I'll be up in the middle of the night to watch (Monday nighters start at 5:30 AM in Israel time) in a country that thinks football is played with your feet (crazy right?).I informed Alfie that I would be reducing my involvement when I left for Israel and he was understanding about it. I want to stress that there are no hard feelings between myself and anyone else among the BCC writers. Of course, since that time, something bizarre and unexpected happened... I was offered a job by Bleacher Report.
Yup. A real, paying opportunity to write about the NFL. Honestly, it was something I never expected when I started here at BCC. I was only writing for funzies, expressing my silly little thoughts to a bunch of hometown fans who love their team as much as I do. I never expected anything of consequence to happen as a result until, out of the blue, I got an email inviting me to do exactly what I do over here for BCC for Bleacher Report... you know, for money. Like, real money. Like beer money and money to travel when I'm over in Israel. Money to buy an NFL internet package so I don't have to stay up till 5:30 AM to watch games. I can't explain the feeling of shock and surprise I felt when I was told that someone actually want to pay me to mess around on the internet and write about sports, but I'm very glad to have the opportunity.
Part of the B/R contract requires that I not contribute anything to "competing" groups, companies or websites. Hopefully, that doesn't include BCC, because I've enjoyed my time on this site a lot and I would like to pop in with little articles when I can.
Anyways, consider this my two weeks notice. As sad as I am to leave BCC, I have enjoyed my time on the site. This coming year holds a lot of exciting, new things, not just for me but for everyone here at Big Cat. There's a new quarterback in town, the Jaguars play a challenging and fun schedule with plenty of prime-time games, and there are signs of a solid, rising team all over the place. In '09, I predicted that by this coming season, this team would be competing for a playoff spot. By next season, I predicted that the Jaguars would be serious super bowl contenders. Hopefully, I'll be proven right in the future.
Thank you all for your readership,
Brian Levenson

Carwash approved despite residents' concerns
August 19, 2013
MAILLARDVILLE, BRITISH COLUMBIA. CANADA — Following two years of defeats, a proposed carwash has been given the go-ahead.
Although residents still have concerns over extra traffic, property values and noise, the Coquitlam City Council approved the building site. The Council did, however, make some amendments to the operations. The carwash will have to close at 10 p.m. instead of 11 p.m., a U-turn must be built on the property and security gates will have to be installed.
Redondo Beach carwash is approved by City Council
The Tri-City News reports that despite the changes, residents are still opposed to the carwash.
"People have told us what they want," Councilor Neal Nicholson said. "I think we have to respect that and give them the neighborhood that they're building for themselves."

Hard Rock's 2009 PINKTOBER™
Breast cancer survivor and Grammy® winning recording artist Melissa Etheridge was Hard Rock's official PINKTOBER Artist Ambassador. Etheridge launched Hard Rock's PINKTOBER global campaign with an exclusive performance at Hard Rock Café New York. Additionally, on behalf of NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Deputy Mayor Linda Gibbs proclaimed September 29th "Pinktober Day."
The following day, Etheridge participated in a breast cancer awareness symposium at Hard Rock Café Washington, D.C. The Symposium theme was "Breast Cancer and Creativity," where the role of creativity in curing and dealing with the disease was discussed. Joining Etheridge on the panel, moderated by BCRF Scientific Director, Dr. Larry Norton of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, were BCRF-funded researchers Dr. Funmi Olopade of the University of Chicago, and Drs. Susan Domchek and Robert Vonderheide of the University of Pennsylvania, whose grant is made possible by Hard Rock International; and breast cancer survivor Marisa Acocella Marchetto.

In Closing
An exclamation point or question mark changes the way an entire sentence is viewed. So should the closing remarks of a speech. They should raise the audience opinion of the speaker and the talk. The words 'In Closing" set an audience at ease and raise expectations. Even those who have been nodding off during your talk will become alert.
Bill tried ending speeches with explicit ads for the book. One ending noted that Bill's book raises public awareness of national cyber vulnerabilities and thus its purchase does a valuable public service. One ad read, "If you don't buy this book, the terrorists win." Both of those techniques worked, but some audience members were offended by the overt marketing pitch. So Bill shifted to more traditional closings, which he believes have led to better talks and better sales. He sees two aspects of a closing: say the right stuff and say the stuff right.
Say The Right Stuff
Closing remarks have to rise above the mundane and strike a more philosophical theme. They also should evoke a reaction. Humor works, as long as it has a higher purpose, although you should already have made liberal use of humor in your talk.
The best closing is one that evokes emotion. Here's a sample closing that's raw and powerful and builds on Bill's personal experience of September 11. Two sold-out book signings followed the talk, along with invitations for other speeches.
Here's another sample closing Bill crafted for a senior military audience in Tampa. Bill used a historical context and appealed both to patriotism and to empathy for those stationed in Iraq. He chose understated words for the ending, so as not to be too heavy handed, and instead elicited an emotional response by the forceful way he spoke the words. The closing pulled about a dozen people to their feet in a standing ovation.
Here's a third sample closing Bill prepared for the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The closing blended a tribute to the university's recently departed founder with provocative thoughts about cybersecurity in the future. The closing was very well received.
Okay, so you've researched the venue and your audience and drafted your closing remarks. The hard part is over, right?
Sorry, no. First you must have someone whose judgment you trust review the remarks and identify anything that might strike a sour note or be over-the-top, since there's a real danger you'll have overreached in grasping for emotion or humor or inspiration.
Having done that, you now know what you want to say. Next you have to figure out how to say it.
Say The Stuff Right
Saying the stuff right first involves translating the closing into words that can be spoken. The best way to do this is by speaking them aloud, since words created by fingers tend not to be as primitive and emotional as spoken words. Sentences that sound formal or stiff must be made more conversational if they're to evoke feelings.
Once you've done that, you have the right text and it's crafted in a form that can be spoken. You've reached the hard part — memorizing the closing. If you've been reading the rest of your remarks from a script, it's especially important for you to look up from the page and speak your closing as though it were extemporaneous. Almost everyone in the crowd will believe the words are your own, that you're making them up as you go, and that they come from your heart. If you've been standing at a lectern, you should step away so that nothing is between you and the crowd. A lapel mike helps.
So how to you do memorization? In Bill's experience, there are five levels. If you're going to take the trouble to memorize at all, you should go all the way. Here are the levels:
The final two words of your closing should be, "thank you." This is actually a code phrase for, "please applaud now." This is something the audience needs to be told, or sometimes they won't applaud. That's embarrassing for all involved. Think of the words "thank you" as doing your audience a favor.
If you're doing a book signing after the talk, be sure to get to
the signing table promptly, or you will lose potential buyers and maybe
even your whole signing. People are going to swarm around you after the
talk to ask questions; you can answer the questions as you lead the swarm
of questioners to the book table. That way, you don't keep buyers
waiting and you might even add a few more buyers

Leaders of the Wellness Revolution
Source Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned – for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life – simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs, and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula, now the industry's #1 immune support product.
Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple, Mega-Kid Multiple, Inflama-Rest, the Skin Eternal line, Higher Mind, Essential Enzymes, Male Response, and more.
Source Naturals' comprehensive Bio-Aligned Formulas help bring the power of alignment to your body. When formulating, they evaluate the underlying causes of system imbalances, and then provide targeted nutrition to interdependent body systems. Their line of more than 600 products also includes well-researched, single entity nutrients in their highest quality and most bioavailable forms.
Source Naturals' nutritional supplements are at the leading edge of today's Wellness Revolution. This transformation in health consciousness also includes new perspectives in diet, lifestyle, emotional, and spiritual development, and complementary health care. Source Naturals Strategy for Wellness is to provide education that empowers individuals to take responsibility for their health, rather than relying solely on outside medical authority. The result is people who are more productive and fulfilled, and a world that is stronger and healthier.
Don't fret! Check out these suggested similar and related items below. Happy shopping!
Source Naturals Aller Response 45 Tablets
Source Naturals Aller-Response is a Bio-Aligned Formula designed to modulate immune system response. Source Naturals Aller-Response supports multiple body systems such as immunity, histamine regulation, adrenal stress response, mucous membranes, and prostaglandin metabolism. Source Naturals Aller-Response features quercetin, ginkgo and bromelain, a pineapple enzyme. Human cell culture studies with quercetin have demonstrated its capability to inhibit the release of histamines. Ginkgolide B, in human cell culture studies, was found to inhibit platelet-activating factor, a substance that stimulates histamine release from immune cells.

Reportedly a loose adaptation of the Mark Waid series, "JLA: Tower of Babel", the animated film Justice League: Doom was adapted and written by Dwayne McDuffie right before his death in February 2011, and is directed by Lauren Montgomery, according to ComicBookmovie.com. It is set to be released in early 2012.
Justice League: Doom features the voices of many talented actors, including Carl Lumbly (M.A.N.T.I.S., Alias), Phil Morris (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Seinfeld, Smallville) and Bumper Robinson (Amen, The Old Settler), just to name a few.
Lumbly will voice the character of Martian Manhunter; Morris will voice the character of Vandal Savage; and Robinson will be heard as the voice of Cyborg.

The annotation system isn't perfect, but it's better than nothing and allows you to quickly navigate to any QB you want to. Hope you all enjoy it.

Arizona State softball set the new program record for best season start after picking up wins against East Carolina, 13-0 (5), and North Carolina, 7-4, on Saturday. Mackenzie Popescue and Jenna Makis combined for a 13-0 (5) shutout of ECU to start the night. Sam Parlich headlined the offense against UNC to help Dallas Escobedo to her 11th win.
Alix Johnson's two home runs and four hits against ECU (7-11) expedited ASU's 10th mercy rule of the season. Sam Parlich nearly hit for the cycle against the Tar Heels, finishing the game 3-for-3 at the dish. With the wins, the Sun Devils rolled to 21-0 and set the new program best start, rewriting 2006's 19-0 beginning.

How does one explain a disease like cancer to a child? Here are some tips that might help you deal with this situation. 0 Quiz Cancer: are you at risk? » Girl 'given' HIV to fight her cancer CANSA CEO responds to Government's HPV vaccine roll-out Last night Carte Blanche Medical highlighted cancer in children. Watch the video here. Hearing that a child has cancer is a devastating experience for a parent. At least these days, the prognosis is much improved on what it was thirty years ago. The majority of children with cancer survive these days. But how do parents approach this very difficult topic? How does one explain a disease like cancer to a child? Here are some tips that might help you deal with this situation. The protection racket. By not telling children the truth, you are making things worse, not better. Children very often sense that something is wrong, and if you keep denying their illness or the increasing severity of their symptoms, they cannot communicate with you openly about their feelings. If you are not forthright, you will be damaging your relationships with your child. The truth must out. Any kind of serious illness is scary to a child. Not being truthful about your child's disease can make them distrust you. Wait until you feel very calm, before talking to your child. Give the bare facts, but in a sympathetic manner. This will also decrease their anxiety and their sense of guilt – a common phenomenon. Get the person closest to the child to have this talk. Try to choose a quiet time and place where you will not be interrupted. A gentle an honest approach is best. Are you in the know? Get your facts straight before you have this talk. Your child may have lots of questions and you should be prepared well enough to answer them. You need to be able to discuss the type of cancer your child has, as well as the treatment options. Toddlers with cancer. Obviously a three-year-old will be treated in a different manner to a thirteen-year-old. Very young children have a limited capacity to understand what is going on. Be there with them and accept the fact that they will find medical procedures frightening and probably will cry. Let them. Your honesty will help them to build trust. Dealing with older children. Young children ( 3 – 7) often think they did something to cause the illness. Reassure them that this is not the case. Slightly older children (7-12) can understand medical procedures and can understand the importance of sticking to treatment programmes. Adolescents can be difficult to deal with – they understand the connection between cancer and possible death. They need to be reassured that great strides have been made in the field of cancer treatment. Dealing with difficult questions. Stress that no one knows what causes cancer and that your child did not do anything to cause this. Many children will ask you directly whether they will get well. Tell them that the chances are very high that they will, with the kind of treatment they are receiving. Let them know that everyone is trying their best to help them. Tell your child honestly about side effects of medication, so they can be prepared. The 'bad' cells causing the cancer need to be controlled, therefore children need to continue taking their medication, even if they are feeling well. Sympathy, not overindulgence. Chances are very high that your child will recover. While you should remain sympathetic, don't let your child use his/her disease to get extra attention and favours on an ongoing basis. You don't want a child who will use illness in later life as an attention-seeking mechanism. Children might also assume they are a lot sicker than they are if you constantly let them bend the rules. It is nevertheless a good idea to give them some limited sort of control, such as choosing the juice they would like to have with their medication. Deal with the right doctor. This is very important. Get a doctor with a good bedside manner, with whom your child feels some affinity. If ongoing care comes from a sympathetic source, it reduces the trauma of treatment for the child. Shop around until you find someone both you and your child like and trust. Cancer and your kids' classmates. A long absence from school and changed physical appearance could be major hurdles for your child to deal with. It is important that your child keeps contact with friends during treatment. Get the teacher to reassure other kids that cancer is not contagious. Contact the counsellor and class teacher to organise a question-and-answer session in which the other children's questions can be answered. Good friends will remain good friends. Children often understand a lot more than adults think. Mood swings. Like adults, children go through good and bad patches when it comes to dealing with something as serious as cancer. Accept these. Children are sometimes afraid for what the future holds, scared of the medication and petrified that they might die. If children show signs of depression, such as becoming withdrawn, changing their eating or sleeping patterns, being overly boisterous, get your child, or the whole family, to a counsellor. The power of love. Reassure your child of your constant love for him or her. With this in mind, many obstacles, such as pain or separation become a lot less daunting. Children find it easier to be honest or to express their fears to someone they know loves them. Your child is a child first and foremost, with the same emotional needs all other children have. Don't let the diagnosis of cancer let you lose sight of this. You child is still the same child as before. Caring for yourself. It is important that you take care of yourself and your relationship with your partner. It is very stressful when your child is diagnosed with cancer – more than people can imagine who have never been through this. Everything else seems to take a back seat. But it is important that you take care of yourself, otherwise your ability to care for your child will become diminished. A support group can be extremely useful, as your child will feel less lonely and vulnerable, especially if confronted with children who have overcome cancer.

In NASCAR there is news that Austin Dillon, grandson of car owner Richard Childress, will race full-time in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series with the iconic number 3 on his car.
It's the first time since Earnhardt was killed in 2001 that someone will use his number.
Dillon, whose grandfather was the car owner of the late Dale Earnhardt Sr., posted a photo of two #3 cars on his Facebook page around 12:15 pm on Wednesday.
The post generated about 100 comments -- some good and some bad -- in just 10 minutes.
Sponsors on the car include Dow Chemical and General Mills with Cheerios, the Richard Childress Racing (RCR) Facebook page confirmed.
"My grandfather and everyone at RCR have done a great job of not pushing me too quickly into the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series," Dillon said in a statement on the RCR website.
"I feel like I've been able to spend adequate time in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series and the NASCAR Nationwide Series preparing for this next step in my career. I am thrilled to be making this move ... with some long-time partners who have supported me and RCR throughout my career. I am truly grateful and looking forward to this opportunity."

text: I couldn't agree more. It's really dumb and upsetting that they force it on people like this. I've known quite a few people who say they would like to do it and think it would be interesting and yet those people NEVER get called. It should be voluntary. If I'm ever forced to do it I'm voting not guilty no matter what. I don't believe in sitting in judgment of others and there's no way I want someone going to jail because of me, I don't care what they did. It's none of my business. I think people do get in trouble sometimes for ignoring it multiple times in a row, but I strongly agree that most people who say "Oh my God, you'll go to jail" are just saying that and don't know anyone it actually happened to.

A Third of U.S. Seniors Die With Dementia, Study Finds
Photo: A Third of U.S. Seniors Die With Dementia, Study Finds
Report tallies enormous medical, financial and caregiver toll of conditions like Alzheimer's.
There's more troubling news for America's aging population: A new report finds that one in every three seniors now dies while suffering from Alzheimer's or another form of dementia.
In many cases, dementia is the cause of death or contributes to it, the Alzheimer's Association study finds.
The rate of deaths related to Alzheimer's disease rose 68 percent from 2000 to 2010, according to the report. At the same time, deaths from other major diseases, such as heart disease and HIV/AIDS, have declined.
"Alzheimer's disease is a public health crisis that is here," said Beth Kallmyer, vice president of constituent services for the Alzheimer's Association. "One in three seniors is dying with Alzheimer's or another dementia. For other major diseases, the death rate is going down because the federal government funds and invests in research. We have not seen that same commitment for Alzheimer's disease."
Released Tuesday, the report also focuses on the toll that Alzheimer's takes on families, particularly those caregiving from a distance. In 2012, more than 15 million people were Alzheimer's caregivers. They provided more than 17 billion hours of unpaid care that the Alzheimer's group estimated was valued at $216 billion.
Direct out-of-pocket costs for families of people with Alzheimer's are $34 billion, according to Kallmyer. "The cost of care is a challenge, and not everyone has access to the services they need," she said.
About 15 percent of Alzheimer's caregivers live more than an hour away from their loved ones. Out-of-pocket costs for these long-distance caregivers are nearly twice as high as those who live close by. Each year, a long-distance caregiver has nearly $10,000 in expenses compared with about $5,000 for a local caregiver, according to the report.
"Long-distance caregiving can be financially, emotionally and physically more draining. Managing the day-to-day care can certainly be a challenge, but long-distance caregivers can feel guilt, and they may feel resentment from other family members. And, they may have to manage the daily care from a long distance," Kallmyer said.
Overall, the cost of caring for the 5 million people with Alzheimer's disease is about $203 billion, according to the report. That figure includes Medicare, Medicaid, family costs and private insurance costs. The lion's share of the cost—about $142 billion—is paid by Medicare and Medicaid.
Even more concerning is that the Alzheimer's Association estimates that by 2050, nearly 14 million people will have Alzheimer's disease. That could drive costs for Alzheimer's care as high as $1.2 trillion in 2050.
The U.S. government currently funds about $500 million in Alzheimer's research, according to Kallmyer. In comparison, heart disease receives about $4 billion in research funding and cancer gets about $6 billion, she said.
Dr. Brian Appleby, a physician with the Center for Brain Health at the Cleveland Clinic, said he wasn't surprised by these latest figures.
"Alzheimer's is going to affect all of us individually. Soon, we'll all have someone we know or someone in the family or even ourselves with Alzheimer's disease. It's something we all need to be prepared for," Appleby said.
He said that while current treatments won't cure or reverse the disease, they can increase the amount of time until someone needs nursing home care. Right now, he said, the focus is on trying to prevent Alzheimer's disease from occurring.
"Alzheimer's disease is really a chronic illness. It starts decades before we see the symptoms," Appleby said. The best advice to potentially prevent Alzheimer's disease is to keep your heart healthy, he said. That means quitting smoking, eating healthy, maintaining a healthy weight and getting regular exercise. It also means staying active mentally, he added. Do crosswords and other puzzles, and read, he advised.
And, stay socially active, he recommended. "People who are socially isolated are at a greater risk of Alzheimer's disease," Appleby said.
For her part, Kallmyer added: "Alzheimer's is impacting so many people already, and the impact is significant. And, as the baby boomers age, the rate of Alzheimer's and the death rate from Alzheimer's is only going to increase."

Game ended approximately 9:24 PM eastern time. South Florida Bulls defeat Villanova Wildcats 70-69. Some notes on the game are below.
-At Madison Square Garden in the first round of the Big East Tournament, Villanova came out lethargic in the opening minutes against the lowly Bulls of South Florida. The 15th seeded Bulls stormed out to an 8-0 lead, prompting Jay Wright to call a quick timeout. By the first media break, guard Shaun Noriega had already hit 4 triples for USF.
-Luckily, Corey Stokes' hamstring was good enough to go in this one, and he responded with numerous bombs to quickly cut into the deficit. Halfway through the opening stanza, the Cats had knotted the game up at 26.
-It looked like a seesaw affair might be brewing, but Villanova really imposed their will over the last eight minutes of the first half. A bevy of players got involved in the scoring, and the Wildcats really clamped down on the defensive end. All in all, Nova ended the half on a 23-7 run to create some breathing room heading into the locker room.
-Halftime score: Villanova 49 South Florida 33
-For a team that lacked a killer instinct when they were winning games, it would've been nice to see Villanova put away the Bulls early in the second twenty minutes. This was not the case though, as USF used a quick 7 point run to slice the deficit to a manageable nine.
-With the Cats leading 57-47 and about twelve minutes remaining, South Florida went on an 8-0 spurt to make it a 2 point game. Villanova was already over the foul limit, and the hot shooting in the first half was nowhere to be found.
-By the last media timeout, Villanova led 61-59, meaning the Cats only had amassed a total of 12 points in the second half up until that point. The game was right there for the underdog Bulls to take, because it sure looked like Villanova wanted no part of winning this one.
-Nova led 65-64 with 90 secs left, and after getting fouled, Maalik Wayns calmly sank a pair of free throws to put them up three. The usually sure-handed point guard for the Bulls, Anthony Crater, turned the ball over on the ensuing possession. Corey Stokes was fouled, but he missed the front end of a 1-1, which gave USF some hope with forty ticks on the clock. Another turnover by the Bulls and subsequent foul put Stokes on the line again, but he missed the front end of a 1-1 for the second straight trip. An Isaiah Armwood foul gave South Florida 2 freebies to cut the lead to 1. Off the inbounds pass, Maalik Wayns turned it over and the Bulls converted the mistake into a layup and their first lead since the first half. Maalik made up for his mistake by sinking 2 free throws after being fouled at other end, which gave the Cats a 1 point cushion yet again. A porous Villanova defense though allowed Crater to drive right to the hoop for a layup with 5 secs left. With no timeouts, Wayns rushed the ball up court, but his three point attempt at the buzzer clanged off the back iron, and the Cats notched their 5th straight loss.
I have nothing to say right now after this collapse.

So this gorgeous chandelier, which is 8 feet wide and 4 feet tall, was just recently installed in it's new home. This was not at all easy.
It took Paul Marto and the team he assembled to take this down from the Justin & Burk's shop (crystal strand by crystal strand), transport it, fashion a new plate to support this monster and then install it…crystal strand by crystal strand. Watch this video to see how awesome these guys are, they make it look easy and I know for a fact, it was not! Here's the video link: Crystal Chandelier
Whew! It's up!

SPAIN – The Valencia Astros of the Spanish League have added outfielder Pedro Mendez and first baseman Sandel Cuevas to the roster for the 2010 season. The Astros, managed by Seattle Mariners' scout Joan Garcia, have won just one game since joining Spain's highest division in 2008.
Mendez, who departed El Llano a year ago for De Angelis Godo of the Italian Baseball League, batted .108 with three RBIs in limited action in 2009.
Cuevas, a native of the Dominican Republic, played the past two seasons in the United States. The left-handed slugger is expected to be a top run producer for a squad that plated a paltry 2.64 runs a game this past season.
CB Sant Boi continued their roster shake-up with the addition of former Tenerife Marlins catcher Jose Luis Salazar. Earlier this winter, the Spanish League runner-up team signed former Marlins standout Daniel Martinez.
The 35-year-old Salazar collected 18 RBIs and scored 22 runs for the five-time defending Spanish champions this past season while hitting .398 with a .433 on base percentage. He also gunned down 20 of 40 would-be base runners in 2009.

Infiniti's Eau Rouge Shakes Brand Out of Its Comfort Zone
While European luxury automakers have never been afraid of getting a little ridiculous with their vehicles, their Japanese counterparts have historically played it rather safe when it comes to adding a dose of spice to their products. BMW's M division turns out some of the best drivers' cars on the roads today, and Mercedes-Benz's AMG line is right up there alongside. However, Lexus (NYSE:TM) and Infiniti (NSANY.PK) have never shared the same taste for performance, with the exception of the former's mental LFA supercar.
But Infiniti's recent debut of the Q50 Eau Rouge concept hints that the brand's high-performance resistance might be changing. The Eau Rouge, revealed at the North American International Auto Show, "provides a glimpse of Infiniti's design prowess for high-performance vehicles," the company's statement says.
"If we built this car I would expect it to feature over 500 [horsepower] and 600 [pound-feet] of torque. Through our various alliance partners we have access to a range of engines featuring this performance capability which, with a fair amount of engineering effort, can be developed to exhibit Infiniti character and accommodated within the Q50 engine bay," said Johan de Nysschen, the president of Infiniti. "The engine we are evaluating for the Q50 Eau Rouge is a big personality, V-cylinder engine with forced induction. I think our engineers have been waiting for a project like this."

NEW YORK (AP) — CC Sabathia found the experience of his first trip the disabled list with the New York Yankees a little "embarrassing," and he is looking forward to making his first start in more than two weeks Tuesday.
Brett Gardner might have to wait even longer to return from an elbow injury.
Sabathia will make his first start since June 24 against the Toronto Blue Jays. Out with a groin strain, he says he's feeling well enough to pitch as long as he needs.
Manager Joe Girardi says he will monitor Sabathia to see how his ace bounces back after the outing.
Girardi will be watching Alex Rodriguez, too. A-Rod was moved from third base to the designated hitter against the Blue Jays after he experienced neck stiffness during batting practice.

Low Times Video Exclusive: "A More Perfect Union" by Titus Andronicus.
Back in February I directed a video for Titus Andronicus for their song "No Future Part Three: Escape From No Future". The concept was simple — the band did a one-day "tour" through its home state of New Jersey, playing at six different locales around the state. At every stop the band did a few run-throughs of "No Future Part Three" so we could get enough coverage for the video. But they also made a point of playing some extra songs for all of the fans who came out to cheer them on. They insisted on it, actually — there were times when we were up against the clock and I got the nod from Patrick that they were packing it in, only to hear them launch into one final number.
The New Brunswick performance was a particular bright spot in a day packed with highlights — we were shooting Titus playing a basement show at a place called Fuck Mountain. The show was wall-to-wall with college kids who were really fired up to see the band return to their low-ceilinged roots. One of the songs they played was "A More Perfect Union" and we were lucky enough to have both cameras rolling. Seeing it again makes me proud to have been able to capture the band at this point in its career. I hope you enjoy it! – Tom
