Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Democrats overwhelmed outnumbered Republicans and pushed a pair of President Barack Obama's high-profile nominees through the Senate on Tuesday, the first to win confirmation since the chamber weakened the age-old filibuster.
By 56-38, senators confirmed attorney Patricia Millett to join the influential U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Her approval tilts that circuit's judges 5-4 toward those appointed by Democratic presidents, an important advantage for a court that rules on White House and federal agency actions.
The Senate then used a 57-41 roll call to confirm Rep. Mel Watt, D-N.C., to lead the Federal Housing Finance Agency. That bureau oversees the two giant taxpayer-owned home lenders, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Watt's approval came after Democrats took advantage of the eased rules for ending filibusters and senators voted 57-40 to halt GOP delays that had blocked his nomination since Obama announced it in May. Until the changes, 60 votes would have been needed to end that blockade.
Later, senators voted 56-42 to end a filibuster against the nomination of attorney Cornelia "Nina" Pillard for another vacancy on the D.C. circuit. Her confirmation was expected later this week.
The votes came nearly three weeks after Democrats overpowered Republicans and made it harder for the Senate minority party -- currently the GOP -- to use filibusters, or procedural delays, to block nominations.
Filibusters for nearly all nominations, but not legislation, can now be ended by a simple majority vote instead of the 60 required since 1975. For decades before that, an even bigger margin, two-thirds, was needed to halt the delays.
Democrats and their allies hailed Tuesday's votes as a triumph, with more to come.
"The minority caucus has dedicated the last five years to paralyzing the Senate," said Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., among a cadre of newer Democratic senators who helped push party leaders to change filibusters. "Today I saw as a good sign."
In retaliation for the filibuster changes, Republicans used the Senate's own procedures Tuesday to slow its work, and said they would continue doing so.
They forced several procedural votes before Watt's nomination could be approved and did the same on Pillard. They also blocked permission -- usually granted routinely -- for a pair of committees to meet for more than two hours while the Senate was in session.
"It says that what they've done is wrong and there's a price to be paid for that," Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said of the GOP response. "These are not itty bitty problems."
"For the president and his enablers in Congress, the ends now clearly justify the means," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. "And that's a very dangerous place for us to be."
With Republicans talking about using all the debate time that Senate rules allow, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has threatened to hold evening and weekend sessions.
The nomination fight is intensifying at the start of what Reid has planned as a final two-week stretch before adjourning for the year. During that time he wants approval of an emerging budget deal, a huge defense bill and perhaps other measures.
Reid also wants the Senate to confirm three other major Obama nominees during this period.
They are U.S. District Judge Robert Wilkins, who with Pillard would fill the two remaining D.C. circuit vacancies; Janet Yellen to chair the Federal Reserve and Jeh Johnson to head the Department of Homeland Security.
All are expected to win approval.
Millett works in the Supreme Court practice at Akin Gump, one of the capital's largest law firms. A Harvard Law School graduate, she served as an assistant to the solicitor general under presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush and has argued 32 cases before the Supreme Court.
Two Republicans joined Democrats in confirming her Tuesday: Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine.
Obama praised Millett's confirmation, saying in a statement, "I'm confident she will serve with distinction on the federal bench."
He also lauded Watt's approval, calling him "the right person to protect Americans who work hard and play by the rules every day" and "to make sure the kind of crisis we just went through never happens again."
Sens. Rob Portman of Ohio and Richard Burr of North Carolina were the only Republicans to vote to confirm Watt.
Members of both political parties want to wind down both Fannie and Freddie in hopes of reducing taxpayers' risks. Republicans generally want federal regulators to force both companies to focus more on profitability, while Democrats want them to make housing loans more affordable for consumers.

text: Trig Truther Andrew Sullivan: Pope Benedict Secretly Gay Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 1 Mar 2013 post a comment Andrew Sullivan, the author who still harbors serious doubts about the veracity of Sarah Palin's ultimate pregnancy, has determined that outgoing Pope Benedict is gay. In a post titled "Two Popes, One Secretary," Sullivan writes that since Benedict will live in the Vatican with Archbishop Georg Gaenswein, his trusted secretary, he must be gay. "So Benedict's handsome male companion will continue to live with him, while working for the other Pope during the day," Sullivan wrote. "Are we supposed to think that's, well, a normal arrangement?" In the past, Sullivan, without any proof, concluded that it seemed "pretty obvious" that Pope Benedict "is a gay man." Pope Benedict departed the Vatican on Thursday, temporarily leaving the Roman Catholic Church's leadership vacant.

This kit from Sportsman's Guide has been mentioned on this board before, but I thought somebody might profit from me mentioning it again. I just bought two for Christmas presents for my adult kids (one is a contruction worker, the other has a wife and toddler), and I got one for my own work truck as well.
Some comments here at DC were from guys with medical training who said the kit was very good and surprisingly low-priced ($20). So if you needed an idea for Christmas, here it is. (Of course, there are many others on the market, or you could make your own.)
Now I'm on the lookout for the right book to go with it so I can learn what all those doodads are good for.

Serious CDL Violations
What Is Considered A Serious Traffic Violation In The State Of New York For A Commercial Driver?
There are numerous offenses that can fall under the umbrella of a serious traffic violation for CDL suspension purposes. In New York speeding at least fifteen miles of over the limit, reckless driving (misdemeanor charge), tailgating, accidents that resulted in a fatality in which the CDL driver was guilty of a violation, improper lane change, and operating a commercial vehicle without a CDL.In addition, any alcohol or drug related conviction, either while driving a commercial or non-commercial vehicle will result in a 1 year loss of CDL driving privileges. This means that even if a traffic violation was committed off-duty while driving your own private vehicle your CDL privileges can be affected. If a CDL driver is convicted of a second alcohol or drug related offense there CDL privileges can be revoked permanently.In general, Commercial Drivers can face any of the following traffic infractions that may affect their CDL:
- Overweight restrictions
- Height restriction violations
- Safety Regulations
- Disobeying a traffic control device
- Log book violations
- Tailgating
- Speeding
- Failure to display required stickers
- Unsecure Load
- Reckless driving
- Improper lane change
- Improperly transporting hazardous materials
Should I Hire An Attorney To Fight My Traffic Violation Charges?
Commercial drivers spend an extraordinary amount of time on the road. Many times CDL drivers find themselves facing traffic violations for inadvertent traffic offenses, and the consequences for losing a CDL can be devastating. When your license is in danger you will not be able to work or make a living. Remember that in any criminal matter, New York requires that a trucking company be represented by a lawyer.You should call The Rosenblum Law Firm today and consult with one of our experienced attorney's to have the serious charges reduced or dismissed all together. We charge a low flat fee and guarantee a reduction of your points and fines or your money back. The best part is you do not have to come to court because we know you are busy earning a living on the road and making a court appearance can prove difficult.Don't let traffic violations or speeding tickets ruin your commercial driving privilege. The Rosenblum Law Firm will aggressively fight your ticket and help keep you on the road!

By VIC TAFUR
Los Angeles Lakers
Odds: 56.5 over/under wins, 3-1 to win title
In: Sun Yue, Josh Powell
Out: Ronny Turiaf
Outlook: The Lakers became one of the NBA's two best teams overnight after stealing Pau Gasol from Memphis for Kwame Brown, Jarvis Crittenton and draft picks. Now Los Angeles gets center Andrew Bynum back from his knee injury and might have to bring Lamar Odom off the bench it's so deep. The 7-foot Gasol should be fine playing the high post, with his soft touch and passing skills, and Bynum was on his way to becoming one of the best centers in the league before he got hurt. Odom will either play small forward or be the first guy off the bench if Phil Jackson decides he needs Vladimir Radmanovic's 3-point shooting in the lineup. Shooting guard Kobe Bryant, who is decent, and point guard Derek Fisher round out the starting five and Sasha Vujacic, Jordan Farmar, Luke Walton, Trevor Ariza and Chris Mihm make up an extremely impressive bench.
Prediction: Can Kobe get enough shots on this talented team? Does he care? This team wins 57 games sleep-walking. Over.
Phoenix Suns
Odds: 51.5, 12-1
In: Matt Barnes, Robin Lopez, Goran Dragic
Out: D.J. Strawberry, Brian Skinner
Outlook: We're not saying the door is closed on the Suns, but watch your fingers because it's about to get slammed shut. If Shaquille O'Neal doesn't start dunking on people again soon and give Phoenix a third weapon besides Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire, then the Shawn Marion deal with Miami starts to look very bad. It's already bad, mind you. The Suns lost their identity as the most efficient and fun-to-watch offensive team in the league. Then they lost coach Mike D'Antoni and hired Terry Porter to focus on defense and throwing the ball into Shaq and Stoudemire. Boring. Phoenix can still shoot, with Nash, Leandro Barbosa and Raja Bell. Stoudemire could always win MVP and there's enough role players like Grant Hill, Barnes and Boris Diaw to run the floor and keep defenses honest. But the clock is ticking, as O'Neal and Hill are 36 and Nash is 34.
Prediction: Under. The 12-1 might be worth a look just because of Nash and Stoudemire.
Los Angeles Clippers
Odds: 33.5, 50-1
In: Baron Davis, Marcus Camby, Ricky Davis, Eric Gordon, Brian Skinner, Jason Hart, Steve Novak
Out: Elton Brand, Corey Maggette, Brevin Knight, Josh Powell
Outlook: Lost in last year's nightmare of a 23-win season in which Elton Brand got hurt early and everybody else late was the emergence of Chris Kaman as a dominant center. Add to that one of the best point guards in the NBA in Davis and a top-notch, defensive-minded power forward in Camby and you gotta love the over 33.5. True, there are always health concerns with Davis — he did show up to camp 19 pounds lighter, however — and the shooting guards and small forwards don't knock your socks off. But the Clippers should find enough scoring from Al Thornton, Davis, Tim Thomas, Cuttino Mobley and Gordon to keep defenses honest.
Prediction: We think Davis has a big season in front of his hometown fans and the Clippers win close to 40 games. Over.
Golden State Warriors
Odds: 39.5, 60-1
In: Corey Maggette, Anthony Randolph, Ronny Turiaf, Marcus Williams
Out: Baron Davis, Mickael Pietrus, Matt Barnes, Patrick O'Bryant
Outlook: The Warriors could be in trouble, and it all started with their casualness about trying to re-sign Davis. He put the team back on the NBA map the last couple of years, and they used concerns over his long-term health to nickel and dime him. Then Monta Ellis gets hurt on a moped, and suddenly Golden State is looking at someone named CJ Watson as its point guard. The Warriors brought in Williams to hopefully handle the point on an interim basis, but he is showing his disastrous play in New Jersey was no fluke. Stephen Jackson and Maggette become the go-to guys on offense, while talented big man Andris Biedrins tries to carve out a bigger role. The defense forced a lot of turnovers last year but that was largely due to Davis and Ellis. Rookie Anthony Randolph could help on that front as he been impressive and has moved ahead of Brandon Wright in the rotation. How soon Ellis comes back (halfway through the season?) and how he plays on the ankle should determine if the Warriors even sniff the playoffs again.
Prediction: Under. All the close games that Davis and Ellis pulled out now go the other way.
Sacramento Kings
Odds: 31.5, 125-1
In: Jason Thompson, Bobby Jackson
Out: Ron Artest, Shareef Abdur-Rahim, Lorenzen Wright, Anthony Johnson
Outlook: The Kevin Martin show. Doesn't have much of a ring to it. But that's what the Kings are now that they get rid of Ron Artest and are fazing out Brad Miller. Martin is quick, can hit the 3-pointer and mid-range jumper and scores in bunches, but the shooting guard has complained that coach Reggie Theus doesn't run a lot of plays for him. That's a little disconcerting. Beno Udrih is serviceable at point guard and swingman John Salmons has more good days than bad. Francisco Garcia can also shoot. The front office is high on rookie Thompson, but the power forward is pretty raw. Same with center Spencer Hawes. Defensively, the Kings are terrible.
Prediction: Bet the house on the under.

BigKahuna had an opportunity to drink this beer. Here's what he had to say:http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f38/jds-...75/#post873987
Sounds like a wonderful recipe! Did the lacto take it slightly beyond the sour mash used in making Guinness?
You'll NEVER mistake this for a Guinness! Where Guinness has a bitter flavor on the back of the palate, This has a sour flavor at the back of the tongue. This is a great beer, and Anyone that even raises an eyebrow to this recipe should get to planning their batch.
I hate to rave about a beer like this, but it's fuggen GoUd!
Thansk for posting, i just might have to try this!
Guinness employs a sour mash as well- just trying to place this one in some kind of context. Sounds like the sour note is a bit stronger in presence.
This looks like it could be pretty nom nom nom...
"I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness."
It is a good stout, but I think it could be better. The guys from Dry Dock Brewing (GABF 2009 small brewpub of the year) recommended more roasted barley, and I agree. Next time I brew this stout, it's getting 1.5 lb instead of a lb. This stout needs to be consumed young, or the roast character fades and leaves you with something like an off-kilter porter.
It's still pretty good, though.
Assuming the amount of time it's allowed to sour is the same, does it matter if the sour mash is added to the primary or the secondary? Also, for those that have done a sour mash for their stouts, what volume of sour mash do you recommend for a 5 gl brew?

Engine problems forced a San Francisco-bound United Airlines jet to land in Lincoln Tuesday afternoon.
The Boeing 757 flight crew shut down one of its two engines before landing safely around 1:10 p.m. United Flight 297 was carrying 168 people from Boston.
"The pilot came on, said we had lost an engine and we would have to make an emergency landing," said passenger Bruce Claflin. "People were self-contained, but nervous."
Passengers spent much of the afternoon awaiting for another plane, which left Lincoln around 7:40 p.m.

"Grey's Anatomy" recap (10.21): Lemon Heart
Jackson calls a board meeting to discuss the budget cuts, and has compiled a list of least to most successful projects. Before we can see who's hard work is on the chopping block, Alex interrupts the meeting. He tells them all about his offer, and gives his notice. For a second there, I didn't think that he was going to go through with it.
Owen is trying to track Cristina down again, leaving a voicemail, asking her not to disappear again. Richard stops him in the hall, with important news about the Harper Avery.
At home, Jo is attempting to scrub the blood out of her Nikes when Alex comes home. He's feeling triumphant that he went through with quitting after all. Jo hugs him and requests a new pair of shoes now that he's a fancy private practice surgeon.
When Meredith and Derek arrive at home, their living room is a disaster area, with Cheerios and stuffed animals strewn about. Turns out that Amy isn't a domestic dynamo. Amy is an emotional mess and runs off crying. "Derek, you broke your sister," Meredith nonchalantly states, "Go fix her."
When Jackson arrives at home, April is still there picking up belongings. As she goes to leave, he apologizes and asks her to please come back home, knowing that they can get past this together. Well, they better get past it real soon because their "hypothetical child" is no longer hypothetical. April is pregnant.
Stephanie and Bailey watch Brayden from the other side of his bubble. Steph is frustrated with the stalled progress, and wonders where they go from there. When she leaves, Bailey pulls out what look to be syringes. Apparently she has no intention of sitting back and letting this life saving treatment, and her research, go to waste.
Owen has been looking all over the hospital for Cristina, and finally finds her standing fully clothed in the shower. He tells her that she made the right call with Frankie and Ivy, and did everything perfectly. She already knows that, but asks him "what is the point of any of it?" Owen blurts out that she had indeed won the Harper Avery, but was denied the award because of politics. "They used you," he says, not even realizing that he has sealed his fate. Cristina is nothing more than a ghost now at Grey Sloan. Cristina walks out of the hospital, dazed and soaking wet, and runs off into the night.
Next week: Burke is back!

Thulasi saw that there was a temple just a few minutes from the bus stand and decided to visit it once before she left for good. There was a strange feeling in the bottom of her heart telling her this decision was bad but she decided to ignore it. Thulasi knew her heart would always be with TA and no amount of dhosham would ever change that but her mind told her she couldn't ignore the signals and signs that proved that TA would only suffer with her as his wife.
Thulasi finally got to the temple and went up to Murugan, Paati's never failing saviour. She looked at the god and sighed at her fate. Whenever Paati had prayed to Murugan for Thulasi, it had always led her to TA but now where would it lead her when it seemed even god didn't want her to be with TA. It was only this afternoon, she had seen and spoken to a josiyar after her MIL had visited her this morning and warned her again of Thulasi's bad luck affecting TA.
Thulasi decided to go visit a josiyar to see if her MIL's words were true or not. Afterall, just a few days ago, TA had yet again lost his job. Unfortunately for her, the josiyar told Thulasi that despite loving each other, TA would only suffer more and more as the days went until he was reduced to nothing. Thulasi was shocked and asked him if there was any pariharam she could do to fix it but the josiyar said only way to make sure TA leads a peaceful and happy life is to not be with her and he will go far in life.
By the time Thulasi had gotten home from the josiyar, she had already made up her mind to leave. She would leave TA, write a note that she wasn't coming back and that he would soon find true happiness and peace in his life again. Thulasi didn't want to the thorn in his life and she had seen him suffer so much after he married her. She couldn't be selfish and stay here with him. It killed her to leave as she packed her bags, but she had to do it, if it meant he would be happy, she would do anything.
She didn't want to give her hubby a pattam of having a runaway wife so she left a note explaining why she was leaving and that divorce papers would arrive in the morning to his doorstep. She told him not to look for her as she would not be convinced to come back even if TA found her. She wrote that TA should sign the papers and forget the fact that he ever married her, move on with his life and find the happiness and success he could never have with her with someone else.
Thulasi kept staring at Murugan wondering why he had led her to TA when she was supposed to leave him anyways. Was it some sort of a cruel joke? Find love and happiness with the one person in the world who cared about her more than anything just to have it all taken away from her forever. Thulasi didn't understand why fate was playing her like this and began to cry. Just then she heard a motorbike sound in the distance.

We've decided to spend a few more days here in Nature's Paradise at South Llano State River Park. It's simply a gorgeous spot, teeming with outdoor attractions and the wild, unpredictable beauty of the Hill Country desert. A few days back daytime temps hit 100°F and we were holed up in the RV struggling to keep cool with 30Amp hookup and a single aircon. Then, in a flight of fickle fancy the desert changed it's mood and brought down a cold spell bringing overnight temperatures to near freezing and forcing on the furnace. It's the law of the West and there's nowhere else that can take you through a complete set of wardrobe changes faster, bringing a whole new meaning to the term "quick draw".
We've whiled the days away hiking the many miles of wilderness trails, admiring sweeping views of the valley, and going for quick and mighty refreshing dips in the river. In a mad burst of energetic inspiration, which I can only attribute to "the desert makes you do weird things", yours truly even dry-washed the entire RV with Protect All. So, although the dog may resemble a dusty sponge, and our skin is starting to leather and camouflage with the ground, the RV is gleaming happily in the sun for at least for a day or so until the desert gets to it.
We've also attempted some birding, taking advantage of the multiple bird blinds set-up inside the park that host over 220 species of avians. Our attempts at the latter, admittedly, have been rather poor given that the pooch and us have rather divergent views on the matter. All that fluttering and hopping about is simply far too enticing for doggie so although we both share a burning interest, our expected outcome is…ahem….somewhat different.
We're going to enjoy the cooler air for another day and then escape the week-end (and the next forecasted hot-spell) by driving off into the Mountains. In the meantime I'll leave you with dreams of warm desert wind, tweeting birds and far-away places.

Smitty says:
I've lived in Dallas for 10 years, but you have seen more back country than we have. I've enjoyed your posts! If you get up into the Panhandle, there is Palo Duro Canyon State Park that is just gorgeous! Touted as the Grand Canyon of Texas. During the summer they put on an outdoor play, all about the history of Texas, they have cows and horses and of course, cowboys in the play.
libertatemamo says:
Smitty, You know I've heard so much good about Paolo Duro Canyon. We've got to see if we can make it up there. Nina
hobopals says:
Just have to agree that Protect All is one of the best and most versatile products on the market. When we had the motorhome, I used it on the shower walls and door – water dried off to a shine after each shower. If I recall, I did it once a week or two when I was in the shower. I use it on the toilet seat and sinks, as well, in my trailer and at home and it always makes everything (well, makes me) feel like everything is squeaky clean.
I just recently found your blog and I'm enjoying everything from your writing to photographs. I've never been to the hill country in Texas (actually don't even know where it is) as we (and I, now) only passed through the panhandle on our way west. The next time, if I can, I'll be gone a year or more and hope to see some of the prettier parts of TX. I know so many people who judge the state only by their trip through the panhandle, and I know there have to be beautiful places. I'd like to get down to Padre Island, for sure. I'm going to try to catch up on your blogs to see if I can find more places that are wort a visit.
Thanks for blogging.
libertatemamo says:
Hi Hobopals,
Thanks so much for following along in our travels! Didn't think to use the Protect All inside the MH. What a great idea! I do love the product.
As for Texas there is so much to see here that we haven't even touched. South Padre was on our plans, but we weren't able to make it (doggie got ill) so that's on our "future" list. If you're looking for a very "remote" experience Sea Rim State Park was one of our most favorite spots. We haven't touched the NW side. I've heard Paolo Duro Canyon is amazing. Also, if you're willing to go further West into FL, we though the Forgotten Coast was fabulous.
See ya on the road!
That photo of the flowering cactus is gorgeous!
And I feel you about the temperature change — we experienced something similar in New Mexico. Every time we think we can put our heater away we just have to get it out again…
libertatemamo says:
Christy, Yeah, the temp changes have been crazy lately. Everyone says it's unusual for this time of year. Hoping to get to a more stable temp soon. Nina
jil mohr says:
great place to hole up…..the cacti are starting to bloom here in AZ….and some of the wildflowers are coming out….hummingbirds have found my feeder as well as some orioles passing thru….life is good….
libertatemamo says:
Jil, Loooove the flowers in AZ. The desert is a beautiful thing in the spring! Nina

Gluten Free Forever Kickstarter | Triumph Dining
The gluten-free community is one of unique character. We love our gluten-free fare to be, well, really good. So many times, our options have been limited to foods or product lines that sacrifice quality to remain gluten-free. And let's face it – that's never a fun discovery.
If you haven't caught wind of the Gluten-Free Forever magazine Kickstarter project, please take a look here. (note that it ends very very soon!)
From the Kickstarter page:
GFF is for people who don't want to compromise quality, flavor, or fun while enjoying a gluten-free lifestyle. The first collectible gluten-free publication striving to contend with top national food magazines, it features:
• 50 inspired recipes from top chefs, cookbook authors & bloggers
• tutorials for mastering gluten-free cooking
• secrets to satisfying GF family members and friends of all ages & tastes
• trends, products, people, & places worth knowing about
• travel features for tastier gluten-free adventures
• lifestyle extras that elevate your everyday
• enticing photography and design
Winter Brews | Triumph Dining
There's nothing like a good winter brew to pair with holiday meals, especially for New Years Eve. With celiac and gluten sensitivities, it can be tricky to find ample choices. Here are a few of our favorites for your enjoyment this holiday season and into the winter months. Click to continue reading »
Triumph Dining Cider Week | Angry Orchard Part II
Triumph Dining had the pleasure of speaking with Dave Sipes, a cider maker at Angry Orchard. We love learning more about cider making and about Angry Orchard!
How does making cider differ from brewing beer?
Making cider is actually more like making wine than brewing beer. Hard cider is the result of apple juice that goes through a fermentation process. For Angry Orchard, we use a select blend of apples to create a balance of tannins, acidity and sugar in our hard ciders. Instead of using a yeast that imparts a flavorful character, we use a neutral wine yeast during the fermentation process that allows the apples to express themselves for a fruit-forward cider. We age some of our ciders on oak, including Crisp Apple and Traditional Dry and our Cider House Collection, to give the cider an additional layer of complexity. Click to continue reading »

Angry Orchard's Hard Cider has fast become a cider lover's favorite. With the ample variety as well as the seasonal options and variety packs, this one's a winner. Angry Orchard has the following ciders available: Click to continue reading »
Gluten-Removed Beer
While I never developed a taste for beer, and therefore have never craved a gluten-free beer, there are many hops lovers who need to stick to the gluten-free diet. One such imbiber is Joe Casey, a "brewmaster" at Widmer, who has been spending years testing beer recipes that he and his fellow gluten-intolerant wife could safely drink.
Being a bit of a beer connoisseur, Casey was tired of the "beers" brewed with gluten- free sorghum grains that are frequently substituted for barley, but leave beers with a bit of a sour after-taste. Casey decided to experiment with a new technique – rather than brewing with gluten-free grains, he would see if he and his wife could tolerate beer that was brewed traditionally with barley, but then remove the gluten from the beer. After getting the nod from his gluten-free wife and beer-loving boss, Casey is lobbying to get his gluten-removed brew on the market.
His greatest obstacle? Federal alcohol regulations. Much to the appreciation of celiac beer-drinkers and frustration of Craft Brew Company, they are barred from calling this "gluten-removed" beer "gluten-free" as it is misleading to consumers. Casey is seeking to sell his celiac-friendly beer to the gluten intolerant community. Unfortunately, based on scientific analysis, tiny traces of gluten have been detected in the beer.
What do you think? Is this beer gluten-free or gluten-removed?
Squat and Gobble Gluten-Free Crepe Contest
If you live in San Francisco, you've probably heard of Squat and Gobble. They are a chain with five locations across the city.
Squat and Gobble sell lots of gluten-containing dishes such as crepes, burgers and sandwiches so they aren't known to be the most celiac friendly of restaurants, although they do offer some gluten-free items on both lunch and dinner menus.
Known best for it's savory and dessert crepes, Squat and Gobble are sponsoring a recipe contest for customers to create a fantastic gluten-free crepe which they can use across all of their stores.
Applicants are encouraged to use whichever filling they like in their crepe but chefs would like a fantastic, great tasting gluten-free crepe that can be used with all of the restaurants crepe fillings.
If you're interested, check out out the rules on the Squat and Gobble website. The winner will receive $300 and dinner for two once a month for an entire year.
Happy Crepe Making!
Gluten-Free Givers
Though I imagine most readers of this blog are adults who are diagnosed with Celiac disease or a gluten intolerance, many of whom probably weren't diagnosed until after childhood (as I was), there are many parents who also look to this blog for advice for running a gluten-free house for their celiac son or daughter. Any medical diagnosis is certainly life altering, but trying to explain to a young child why they can't eat certain foods that their friends, siblings, and parents eat on a regular basis can be a heart breaking challenge.
A couple of parents from Westfield, New Jersey took that challenge and have changed it into an opportunity to teach their child what it means to be special, not different. The Kesslers have 4-year old twins, a daughter, Sydney, with celiac disease, and son, Alex, without. In just one year after being diagnosed with celiac disease, Sydney has been feeling much better, thriving with the gluten-free lifestyle. Click to continue reading »

Lee county will hold the final meeting on the land development codes in the new Lehigh Acres Community plan on Saturday. Planners say it mandates new standards for architecture, landscaping and signs. It also calls for new duplexes to be more attractive. It even has a provision to allow food vending carts, which are not allowed now.
"This will make the community more attractive to developers and to the eyes of visitors and residents," said Kathie Ebaugh, principal planner for Lee Co.
"This is an attempt to have multi-use areas in the community, so people can live work and play in one general area, and not have to drive miles to go to a store," said planner Tony Palermo.
"I like the better look and all, but what we really need is jobs and more stores," said Joan Patterson, a Lehigh resident for several decades. "I wish the county would put their time and effort into getting an outlet mall for Lehigh. That would really help us. Then I would not have to drive to Ft. Myers to get a pair of shoes!"
Marie Rooney agrees that looks are important, but Lehigh's ails go far deeper. "It's going to take a long time to come back. There are so many empty houses. So many run-down areas," she told WINK.
The meeting Saturday will be held at the library on Gunnery Rd., starting at 9:30 AM.

Paula Vogel's 1998 Pulitzer Prize winner HowI Learned to Drive is not an easy play to sit through. Incest, alcoholism, self-destruction, and probing questions about the nature of love are the subjects it takes on. Told through the eyes of Li'l Bit, a woman who looks back at her youth and girlhood to recount how she was molested by a favorite uncle, the drama requires actors to portray two fully fleshed people (Li'l Bit and Uncle Peck), as well as a Greek chorus of family members and secondary characters. The excellent Caldwell Theatre Company cast featured Kim Cozort and David Forsyth as the protagonists, both of whom gave subtly multifaceted and complex performances. Supporting them, and acting with much broader strokes, were the magnificent Dan Leonard, Jessica K. Peterson, and Viki Boyle. Director Kenneth Kay couldn't have asked for more happy chemistry or more galvanic talent. And neither could we.

This important book delivers a critical wake-up call: a fierce global race for innovation advantage is under way, and while other nations are making support for technology and innovation a central tenet of their economic strategies and policies, America lacks a robust innovation policy. What does this portend? Robert Atkinson and Stephen Ezell, widely respected economic thinkers, report on profound new forces that are shaping the global economy—forces that favor nations with innovation-based economies and innovation policies. Unless the United States enacts public policies to reflect this reality, Americans face the relatively lower standards of living associated with a noncompetitive national economy.
The authors explore how a weak innovation economy not only contributed to the Great Recession but is delaying America's recovery from it and how innovation in the United States compares with that in other developed and developing nations. Atkinson and Ezell then lay out a detailed, pragmatic road map for America to regain its global innovation advantage by 2020, as well as maximize the global supply of innovation and promote sustainable globalization.

Published March 6, 2012
Just weeks before the Titanic shipwreck's hundredth anniversary, scientists have a brand-new theory as to what might have helped spur modern history's most famous maritime disaster. (See pictures of Titanic's rediscovery in 1985.)
An ultrarare alignment of the sun, the full moon, and Earth, they say, may have set the April 14, 1912, tragedy in motion, according to a new report.
R.M.S. Titanic went down on a moonless night, but the iceberg that sank the luxury liner may have been launched in part by a full moon that occurred three and a half months earlier, scientists say.
That full moon, on January 4, 1912, may have created unusually strong tides that sent a flotilla of icebergs southward—just in time for Titanic's maiden voyage, said astronomer Donald Olson of Texas State University-San Marcos.
(Watch an animation of Titanic's iceberg collision, breakup, and sinking.)
Blame It on the Moon?
Even at the time, spring 1912 was considered an unusually bad season for icebergs. But figuring out why this happened has been a mystery.
Olson believes the iceberg boom was the result of a rare combination of celestial phenomena, including a "supermoon": when the moon is full during its closest monthly approach to the Earth. (See supermoon pictures.)
During new and full moons, the sun, Earth, and the moon are arranged in a straight line, with the sun and moon intensifying each other's gravitational pull on the planet. The result: Low tides are lower than usual, and high tides are higher—a phenomenon called a spring tide.
What's more, on the January 4, 1912, the full moon—and therefore the spring-tide alignment—ended just six minutes before the moon made an unusually close swing by Earth.
It was the closest lunar approach, in fact, since A.D. 796, and Earth won't see its like again until 2257. That combination of a very close moon and the celestial alignment added up to an especially strong gravitational pull on the Earth and therefore very high tides.
(Explore a 2004 photomosaic of the Titanic wreck.)
Tidal Waves and Titanic
How would high tides hinder Titanic?
For starters, they could have flexed the tongues of glaciers extending out to sea in Greenlandic fjords, cracking off a bumper crop of southbound icebergs.
But icebergs don't travel that fast. By April 14 new ones formed in that manner wouldn't have gotten far enough to get in the Titanic's way, Olson's team concluded.
Rather, he said, the tides may have affected older icebergs that had run aground in shallow waters off Labrador and Newfoundland (map) in Canada (Titanic wreck-site map).
Often these icebergs are stranded until they melt enough to float again. But a high tide, Olson said, can refloat them.
And the unusually strong spring tide created on January 4 could have refloated a great many of them at once, sending a swarm of icebergs southward and into Titanic's path, he said.
(Related: "Titanic Was Found During Secret Cold War Navy Mission.")
Against the Tide
It's an interesting theory, but not everyone is convinced.
Astronomer Geza Gyuk, for example, doubts the January 4, 1912, spring tide was especially powerful.
Full and new moons coincide with the moon's closest monthly approach of Earth every few years, with little effect on iceberg creation, said Gyuk, director of the Department of Astronomy at Chicago's Adler Planetarium & Astronomy Museum.
Furthermore, in terms of tide-enhancing gravitational pull, it doesn't make much difference whether a spring-tide alignment occurs within six minutes or a couple days of the moon's closest approach, or perigee.
"A full moon anytime during the day preceding or following the perigee will have very close to the same tidal force," Gyuk said by email.
Also, he said, the moon on January 4, 1912, came only about 4,000 miles (6,200 kilometers) closer than its average perigee.
"The difference in tidal force between [the January 1912] perigee and an average perigee is only about 5 percent," he said.
Report co-author Olson doesn't dispute any of this. Rather, he said, it doesn't take a hugely stronger tide to refloat an iceberg.
"Suppose you pull a rowboat to a beach" at high tide and leave the boat when it first runs aground, he said. "It doesn't have to be much of a higher tide to refloat the rowboat."
In addition, Olson said, "we have found several stories about record tides ... around the world in January 1912."

Planets cover our galaxy - we are not alone
Summary: Recent discoveries of exoplanets by NASA's Kepler project and other research indicates that we may soon find habitable planets orbiting nearby stars.

NASA announced the incredible results for its Kepler program in 2011. It started out with the discovery of the first rocky planet, then moved on to other discoveries such as a six-planet solar system and a planet orbiting one star of a binary star system. Kepler claims over 1,000 planet discoveries and 170 multiple planet solar systems.

Resolved, That the flag of the [thirteen] United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the union be thirteen stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.— Journal of the Second Continental Congress, Philadelphia, Saturday, June 14, 1777The Stars and Stripes will appear along city streets Saturday before sunrise, as if planted by some mysterious flag elves by dark of night.By sundown, the flags will be gone.And too many Americans will see them and say, "Is this a holiday?"Saturday is Flag Day, the 237th anniversary of the adoption of the U.S. flag.The day does not carry the gravity of a memorial, or the bombast of an Independence Day. It's not even a formal work holiday.It is simply a birthday party for the flag, a time to appreciate the banner itself and to reflect on the courage and fears of the Second Continental Congress founding a new nation.Today, the day is remembered mainly through the dedication of civic clubs and scouting organizations, and their volunteers who set alarm clocks to wake up before dawn and line the city streets with red, white and blue.In Arlington, about 100 volunteers from Sunrise Rotary Club plus two Boy Scout troops will load up 1,000 full-size flags, post them throughout the city and then gather them at sundown.Most civic clubs ask for donations of $25 or $30 to deliver flags five or six holidays a year. (Arlington also flies the flag Sept. 11.)To promote American patriotism, the volunteers give up sleeping late or taking weekend trips.In Fort Worth, the Breakfast Optimist Club of East Fort Worth (375 flags) and the Sertoma Club of Fort Worth (200) are among the civic organizations also up early. Sadly, several of the volunteer coordinators say our devotion to Flag Day is waning.Every year, surprised callers ask, "Hey! There's a flag in my yard. What holiday is this?"It's a day with few bands and fireworks, but much to remember.

Colleyville Heritage softball coach Allison Conaway had no idea how her team would fare when District 6-5A play started three weeks ago.After getting hammered in the tournament season but playing some tough games against several of the state's top-ranked teams, the Panthers have reeled off six wins in a row and stand alone atop the district standings.Conaway's group will attempt to remain unbeaten in district when the Panthers meet Hurst L.D. Bell to wrap up the first half of district play Tuesday."We couldn't play an error-free game early on," Conaway said. "It was a brutal stretch. We were shuffling lineups, making changes every game on defense and trying to figure out something that worked."It was a final nondistrict game with Southlake Carroll, a 4-3 loss, that helped light the way.Tess Eby and Madison Young flip-flopped their second and third base spots, which seemed to give the Panthers a defensive spark.Three weeks later, Heritage is the talk of the district, recording just four errors in six games after starting the season with 39.Eby is hammering the ball as well, batting .509 with an OPS of 1.554. She's followed closely by Hailie Henson, hitting .453 and .486 with runners in scoring position.Rebecca Parks has tossed 63 innings and improved her record to 5-5 while Fallon Dean has taken on additional roles and is 2-6 with a save in 36 innings thus far.Building confidenceJustin Northwest picked up a signature win Friday, knocking Richland from atop the District 4-5A standings.Keller is now the only unbeaten with Richland just a game back. The two settle things today at the conclusion of the first half of district play.For Northwest (12-9, 4-2) the 11-inning grinder sent a signal not only to the district but also to coach Tanya Morrow's team."The way we played that game and especially what we did in the final inning was pretty critical," Morrow said. "I really feel like coming into the week, we were still a little bit in limbo as to the identity of our team. We had a couple of close losses and felt like we were a good team but just didn't know for sure."Chisholm Trail surgingVictoria Quinn is hitting .558, has hit five homers and has driven in 24 RBIs as second-year program Chisholm Trail is out to an 18-1, 7-1 start to the season.Lexi Salas is hitting .528, and pitcher Sierra Hanes has improved from last season by striking out 102 already this year and a 14-1 record.Kendall Slaboda has added four homers, and Alex Potts has 22 RBIs.Cardinals pull evenFort Worth Christian is 7-7 thanks to some timely hitting from Caroline Dale. She is batting .568 with 18 runs scored and 16 RBIs and has also stolen 16 bases.Pitchers Mycah Freudiger and Kassidy Stephens have split time almost evenly.Freudiger has worked 29 innings, allowing 22 earned runs and striking out 32. Stephens is 4-4 with 21 strikeouts in 34 1/3 innings.
