Phoenix diocese strips St. Joseph's Hospital of Catholic status
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 12-21-2010 - 12:53pm
I posted last year about a medically nessacary abortion being performed at a Catholic Hospital.
Bishop Olmsted deciced to throw his weight around and demand that the hospital submit to him and that a local hospital that is part of Catholic Healthcare West, Chandler Regional which when it joined CHW was not required (and didn't)
|Tue, 12-21-2010 - 2:50pm
|Tue, 12-21-2010 - 3:34pm
It is a hospital so most of it's funding is thru billing it's services. In 2009 it made 7.5 billion dollars in services, and 95.6 million in donations. So they could lose donation dollars and maybe patients who prefer to go to a Catholic hospital, but St. Joes is one of the best neurological centers so I don't think it will hit them to hard.
|Tue, 12-21-2010 - 5:31pm
"So the Bishop is on some kind of power trip, respect my authority thing going on."
Oh, yeah, he sure is! I wonder what will happen with the order of nuns? And the one specifically he says "excommunicated" herself by approving of the surgery? :O Will the order of nuns be allowed to continue there? Shaking my head...
|Wed, 12-22-2010 - 10:26am
Well the order, The Sisters of Mercy, founded the hospital in 1895. The Sister involved in it was automatically ex'd because she ok'd the procedure. It is unclear whether or not she is still apart of the Ethics board or if she resigned. If she has resigned it hasn't been announced if the order appointed someone else to take her place.

Why Why Why is the music so loud on so many of your TV programs? I love the subject matter of so many of your DIY programs and I would probably have your channel on all the time. But the music is loud and obnoxious, and often is so loud you can't hear what's being said! After an hour or so, I have to turn the channel. Can't you please do something about this?
one of the names for this is "immersion." like the movies now, producers strive for a total lifestyle experience, like the kids are doing with the iPod up, texting, watching a movie or doing homework. all at once. since the kids are the demographic, that's how it's done now.

Editor's review
The people at Samui, Krakow's first Thai restaurant, live by the belief that Thai food is more than just a meal- it is a culinary experience. Here you can taste authentic dishes prepared by master chefs from Thailand, served according to Thai culinary tradition. Choose from over 90 options in Samui's extensive menu including Pad Thai, chicken in honey sauce, fried ginger shrimps, and pork green curry. The cosy, Asian-themed interior and friendly service (dressed in traditional Thai costume) round off the unique atmosphere at Samui.
Krakow Life
brien from United States Reply
Samui has moved to a new spot on Wilsna 10 just down from the Rynek. Decor is still a work in progress (one can only hope) but the dishes were delicious. As with most Thai, you'll pay a bit more than other types of food in Krakow, but was reasonable even then. Waitress was kind and helpful, too (despite being forced to wear some ridiculous outfit). If they can fix the lighting in the lower area and some of the ambiance issues throughout, they could become a regular spot. But Samui deserves good marks on the food. Oh, and we all loved the banana cocktails!

Digital publishing community Electric Literature has a new service for making eBook apps on the cheap called Electric Publisher. Author Stephen Elliott created an eBook app for his novel The Adderall Diaries using the Electric Publisher platform.
Earlier this summer, Electric Literature told eBookNewser that they built their own iPad apps and how they wanted to be able to license the tool to other publishers. And now they are.
The tool includes the ability to create dynamic text, multimedia content and the ability to distribute through the app store. One cool feature that Elliott included from the platform is a discussion section, where anyone reading the book app can share their thoughts and the author can participate in the conversation.
The New York Times has more: "The pricing starts at $600 for a single book app, with additional charges for creating an app-based bookshelf that contains more than one book for sale."

Babies and children too young to speak are unable to communicate
effectively when they are in pain. It is up to the parent or
physician to assess the degree of pain being experienced, and to provide
appropriate levels of pain relief.
A new scale developed in the UK can help parents and health professionals assess the pain of children too young to speak or suffering from severe neurological impairment. The "Pediatric Pain Profile" (PPP) has 20 different types of pain cues. These include vocal cues, changes in posture, different movements the child might make, changes in their facial expression and mood, and changes in the way they sleep or eat.
Each of the behaviors in the scale is rated between zero and three for the extent to which it occurs within a given time frame. Because the parents' role in assessing pain in this group of children is so important, the scale has been incorporated into a record that the parent can keep at home. The Pediatric Pain Profile has been developed by researchers at the Royal College of Nursing Institute, Oxford and the Institute of Child Health, London.
The PPP tool is available for download as a PDF document at: http://www.ppprofile.org.uk/
The Association of Pediatric Oncology Nurses (APON)
offers a new course in 2003. "Foundations of Pediatric
Hematology/Oncology Nursing: A Comprehensive Orientation and Review
Course" includes a module on Supportive Care, a module on Pain
Management, and a module on End-of-Life Care.
The course is designed to provide an overview of nursing issues involved in caring for children and adolescents with cancer and blood diseases using PowerPoint slides and CD roms. Case studies are included to provide clinical scenarios, and enhance learning. A course evaluation form and posttest are provided to assist in measuring the effectiveness of the program.
Available for purchase from APON at: http://www.apon.org
Six online lectures and seminars about pediatric pain
have been developed by the Initiative for Pediatric Palliative Care (IPPC,
pronounced Ipsee). IPPC is a consortium of US-based organisations that
work together to improve care and quality of life of children and
families. It is an initiative of the Educational Development Center's
Centre for Applied Ethics and Professional Practice.
"Developmental Factors in Pain Assessment and Treatment." This lecture enhances the ability of medical professionals to apply key principles and tools in the assessment of pain in children of all developmental stages and abilities.
"Pain Assessment in the Absence of Self Report." This case-based seminar addresses pain assessment in children who are unable to report their pain verbally.
"Chronic Pain, Adolescents, and Pain Assessment." This seminar emphasizes key principles of pain assessment in adolescents with chronic or recurrent pain resulting from a long-term, potentially life-threatening condition.
"Pain Management in Children with Life-Threatening Conditions." This lecture provides an overview of the pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions to treat pain in children.
"The Safe and Effective Use of Opioids to Manage Pain." This lecture introduces participants to the range of opioid medications commonly used in pediatrics, their routes of administration, side effects, and guidelines for dosages, titration, and equianalgesic conversion.
"Addressing Parents' Fears about Opioid Analgesia." This seminar has two parts, "Common Fears and Concerns Regarding the Use of Opioids in Children," and "Communicating with Parents About Opioid Medications." A videotape dramatization is used as a trigger for discussion in both parts.
The complete IPPC module "Relieving pain and other symptoms" is available online at: http://www.ippcweb.org/module2.asp
Easing Pain & Symptom as Illness Progresses: Relief
Guide for Families.
This reference manual is for families who have children who are nearing the end of their life. The manual was written by parents and medical professionals. It includes information on decision-making and communication that applies to anyone with a complex medical condition, but most of the practical information about pain management and emotional support relates to end-of-life issues.
The manual was developed by the Pediatric Palliative Care Project at Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center in Seattle, Washington, USA as the result of a grant from Promoting Excellence in End-of-Life Care, a national program of The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), providing grants and technical support to improve end-of-life care in the US.
The manual has been used by hospice nurses serving families as palliative care nurse case managers.

A week and a half ago, we previewed the upcoming match at Absolute Intense Wrestling with Hailey Hatred defending her JWP Openweight, TLW Womens and IMW Hybrid Fighting Championships against Gail Kim in Cleveland, OH on November 25. However, with just over a week to go until the event, the match has had to be pulled.
Announcing it on their website, AIW said:
When we announced Gail Kim VS. Hailey Hatred, we had every intent on delivering that match. But sometimes even your best intentions are for nothing. While both women are currently holding close to ten titles between them, we had to deal with many different wrestling offices. Sadly we weren't able to cut thru the red tape on this one. Trust us, if there was any way this match could have taken place, it would have.
We believe them. AIW aren't shitarses who'll announce a match of this level without working out all the kinks beforehand. We are sure that everything was confirmed and ready to go, with TNA ready to let Gail wrestle there, as well as JWP, TLW and IMW giving their permission to have their titles defended on the show. That alone is a difficult setup to arrange, having to liase with four different promotions to get one singles match booked. However, things changed between the announcement and the decision to axe the match…
On Sunday, Gail Kim added the Knockouts singles title to her tag strap, effectively making her the most valued female wrestler in the company. Just afterwards, we pointed out how the contest had become juicier, but in the back of our minds, we also could deduce that politically, the negotiations for the match would have escalated to a new level.
You can be pretty confident that TNA decided to move the goalposts somewhat so their Knockouts champion didn't have to lay down and take the fall, which was probably going to be the likely outcome. Let's face it – it's doubtful that the titles were going to change hands, but it makes for an interesting headline for the belts to be put on the line. It's also likely that it would have been a good match, would have been a contest that Kim could have really gotten her teeth into (possibly her best match since her series with Awesome Kong close to four years ago), and Gail herself made a video saying she was looking forward to it. Now the rug's been yanked out from underneath her through booking decisions out of her control.
It is understandable that one company wouldn't want their champion to look weak, but TNA have some nerve to wade into battle late and expect everyone to fold for them because they don't want their new Knockouts Champion to lose, when that would have been likely outcome before Kim won the belt. Like it was mentioned in the Roundup, Kim being booked to win the belt didn't exactly benefit the storylines, and made outgoing champion Velvet Sky look like a fluke titleholder. Had she not won the belt, it would have made for a more interesting dynamic going forward with Kim saying that she had underestimated Sky and would not do that again in the future, and it would have also left her open to wrestle Hatred at AIW without the nockouts belt being something of an albatross around her neck.
If you think about it, over the last month TNA has cut the legs out from Tara and Brooke Tessmacher by having them lose the KO tag belts to Gail and Madison Rayne (who were teaming up for the first time ever) as well as Sky by having her lose the KO title on her first defence all to push Kim, and then they spoiled Gail's ambition to show how great of a wrestler that she is by scuppering the plans for her to wrestle the most decorated female champion in Japan.
We at Ringbelles have known about TNA's requirements for booking their talent for a few years now. We had a conversation with a promoter back in 2008 who let us know about the amount of hoops he had to jump through to book one particular TNA talent for a match. TNA allegedly wanted to know the opponent, the booking of the match and who was going to win – and that winner would have to be the TNA talent so their star wouldn't look weak, regardless of the fact that it was on a small indy show that only the fans in the building saw and was forgotten about not long afterwards. With politics and drama like that – as well as the high fees the promotion supposedly charges to book one of their wrestlers – it's no wonder that indy groups don't have that many matches involving TNA wrestlers, why many leave the promotion to try their luck managing their own bookings elsewhere or have to take on a second job to subsidise their income due to low pay – or no pay, if they're not being booked for TV tapings or the house show circuit.
As a result of the match being pulled, Hatred will no longer be on the show, which must be pretty gutting for her seeing as it is her home promotion, and due to all the drama involving the promotions, she won't get to wrestle there. However, Kim will still be attending, and she will be the referee in the AIW Women's Championship match, with titleholder Mickie Knuckles – who won the belt at Girls Night Out 4, defending against Mia Yim, which should still be an entertaining affair.

Seasonal Makeovers?

I always get the itch to change my look when the seasons change. I gravitate towards light/bright colors in the summer and darker/warmer colors in the fall and winter. Anyone else? Do you change up your look depending on the seasons?
|Tue, 06-18-2013 - 2:29pm
I just bought these new colors in lipstick and eyeshadow for the summer time. It is a limited edition quad set. LOVE IT! The lipstick is called Shine Attract. OMG the best lipstick I have ever used. I recomend both for anyone trying new colors for this time of the year!

I mostly wear warm or bright colors regardless of the time of year. I have very fair skin (neither cool nor warm-toned) and dark hair. Neutrals and soft shades like leaf green or muted blues don't do much for me, so I stick with brights and darks year-round: bright red, purple, green, orange, yellow. And black, as long as it's accented with jewelry and makeup.
My one exception is pink. Bright pink looks garish on me, but lighter pinks make my skin look fresh.

|Wed, 07-24-2013 - 10:02pm
Yes, I agree with you. i am the same way. it is just something about the warm weather that makes me want to weat bright and light colors and the cold weather, makes me want to wear a dark adn warmer colors.
it just seems like the right thing to do. There is a great new Avon Makeup Collection Here with FREE shipping on a $20 order.
Hope that this helps.

Expert to Discuss Threat Posed by Flu, Efforts Toward New Vaccines
Microbiologist David Topham, Ph.D. discussed his work on flu and the current pandemic at 4 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13, in the Class of '62 Auditorium (Room G-9425) at the Medical Center. The talk, part of the
Second Friday Science Sociallecture series, is geared mainly to faculty, staff and students at the University, though the general public is welcome as well.
Topham is an expert on how the body fights the flu, and he helps to direct a research center that is part of a key Federal network designed to fight the flu. He's busy directing studies aimed at understanding the current pandemic and preventing future ones, as well as studying infected people to learn how the body fights the flu.

Common Pain Relievers May Dilute Power of Flu Shots
With flu vaccination season in full swing, research from the University of Rochester Medical Center cautions that use of many common pain killers - Advil, Tylenol, aspirin - at the time of injection may blunt the effect of the shot and have a negative effect on the immune system.
Richard P. Phipps, Ph.D., professor of Environmental Medicine, Microbiology and Immunology, and of Pediatrics, has been studying this issue for years and recently presented his latest findings at the Bioactive Lipids in Cancer, Inflammation and Related Diseases Conference.
URMC co-investigators on the study in Cellular Immunology include: David Topham, Ph.D., an expert in the immune response to influenza and a principal investigator in the David H. Smith Center for Vaccine Biology and Immunology, and Simona Bancos and Matthew P. Bernard, of the Department of Environmental Medicine's Lung Biology and Disease Program.

WHO: Drug Resistance Expected in H1N1 Pandemic
The discovery of three cases of the pandemic H1N1 influenza that are resistant to a key antiviral drug is not surprising, experts say. What is worrying some is that one of the cases of resistance to oseltamivir (Tamiflu) occurred in a woman in Hong Kong who had not been treated with the drug.
But until these cases emerged, there had been no sign of oseltamivir resistance in the pandemic H1N1 flu. Keiji Fukuda, M.D., of the World Health Organization, said there is still no evidence that a resistant strain is being transmitted. That said,
the emergence of drug-resistant viruses is not unexpected,according to David Topham, Ph.D., of the University of Rochester in Rochester, N.Y.,
especially in light of the increased use of influenza antivirals in the context of this recent pandemic.

Computer Simulation Captures Immune Response to Flu
Researchers have successfully tested for the first time a computer simulation of major portions of the body's immune reaction to influenza type A, with implications for treatment design and preparation ahead of future pandemics, according to work accepted for publication, and posted online, by the Journal of Virology. The new
globalflu model is built out of preexisting, smaller-scale models that capture in mathematical equations millions of simulated interactions between virtual immune cells and viruses.
A team of immunologists, mathematical modelers, statisticians and software developers created the new model over three years within the Center for Biodefense Immune Modeling at the University of Rochester Medical Center. The project was led by Hulin Wu, Ph.D., principal investigator of the project, director of the Center for Biodefense Immune Modeling (CBIM) and division chief of the Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, and by Martin S. Zand, M.D., Ph.D., co-director of the CBIM. The work was funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health, and the U.S. Department of Energy.
High-speed, accurate computer simulation tools are urgently needed to dissect the relative importance of each attribute of viral strains in their ability to cause disease, and the contribution of each part of the immune system in a successful counterattack,said Zand.
Real world experiments simply cannot be executed fast enough to investigate so many complex surprises, and we must keep pace with viral evolution to reduce loss of life.

As the death toll from swine flu in Mexico rises and new cases appear in the United States and elsewhere, it's easy to get caught up in a sense of mounting dread. But experts in influenza and infectious disease say the exact level of danger from the virus is still far from certain.
This is something of concern [but] I think we should hold back on calling it a real threat,said David Topham, co-director of the New York Influenza Center of Excellence, part of the University of Rochester Medical Center.
We always have to take these things seriously, but we have a very good system in place to respond.

Biosafety Bungle Leads to Bird Flu Contamination
In February, a group of experimental ferrets at a research facility in the Czech Republic fell ill. The ferrets had recently been injected with a culture containing what was believed to be a straight shot of the seasonal influenza virus, but their symptoms were severe and wholly unexpected. Researchers later determined that they were suffering from avian influenza; the seasonal flu culture had been contaminated with the deadly virus H5N1.
I think it points to major problems,says David Topham, Ph.D., a microbiologist at the University of Rochester Medical Center and co-director of the New York Influenza Center of Excellence.
Although contamination can happen easily,he says,
there should be sufficient safety measures in place to prevent it.

Flu GrantApproved by NIH
Last week, NIH announced that it would fund six Centers nationally to study the flu. Under the leadership of Drs. John Treanor and David Topham, and with the expertise of a large number of faculty co-investigators, Rochester will be one of these Centers. Over the next seven years, we will receive $26 million to conduct studies that will improve our understanding of the biology of the virus and of our immune response to influenza viruses and vaccines.

Bird Flu Vaccine: Will It Work?
GlaxoSmithKline's bird flu vaccine contains a new type of adjuvant, or compound, that boosts the body's immune response. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has hesitated to approve adjuvants, said David Topham, a microbiology professor at the University of Rochester, as they can cause side effects such as swelling and tenderness.
You don't want to put anything in a healthy person that can cause a problem,Topham said.
March 22, 2006
Thin Line Stops Bird Flu Spread
What stops the bird flu? Viruses infect cells by latching on to receptor molecules on the cell surface. Flu viruses bind to sialic acid (SA) receptors. Most H5N1 viruses - there are now many strains - need a receptor in the alpha2,3Gal configuration. In humans, only deep lung cells carry that SA configuration. Nose, throat, and sinus cells have SA in the alpha2,6Gal configuration.
If that doesn't sound very different, it isn't. It would only take a few small mutations for the bird flu virus to be able to latch on to human cells.
Flu expert David Topham, Ph.D., of the University of Rochester, N.Y., says this part of the flu virus mutates rapidly.
It is relatively easy for the bird flu virus to accommodate such a thing,Topham tells WebMD.
And when people get the infection deep in the lung, there would be selective pressure on the virus to acquire this mutation. So this adaptation to humans might not have to happen in another species. It might occur in humans.

Protein Helps Immune System Mount
Instant StrikeAgainst Deadly Flu Viruses
Researchers at the University of Rochester have identified a protein in the immune system that appears to play a crucial role in protecting against deadly forms of influenza, and may be particularly important in protecting against emerging flu viruses like the avian flu. The researchers believe that a vaccine made with a live but weakened strain of flu virus - such as the inhaled flu vaccine introduced last year - may activate this part of the immune system and offer the best defense against avian flu.
The findings demonstrate that when confronted by a potentially deadly flu strain, an effective first strike by T cells in the lungs can mean the difference between life and death. To immunologist David Topham, Ph.D., assistant professor of Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Rochester and lead author of the study, the findings reveal something else: a shortcoming in the world's most widely administered flu vaccines.

University Leading Nation's Largest Smallpox Vaccine Study
Rochester doctors and nurses have been chosen to lead the largest study of smallpox vaccine to date, a nationwide study of approximately 900 patients that will be conducted at seven sites around the country, including Rochester. Approximately 200 people in the Rochester area who were vaccinated against the disease as children will receive a booster shot as part of the study. John Treanor, M.D., associate professor of medicine and director of the medical center's Vaccine and Treatment Evaluation Unit, will lead the national study, coordinating doctors at all seven sites and guiding the effort to evaluate the results.
Besides Treanor, scientists involved in this study are immunologists David Topham, Ph.D., and Tim Mosmann, Ph.D., of the David H. Smith Center for Vaccine Biology and Immunology; and molecular biologist Mark Sullivan, Ph.D., of the Center for Human Genetics and Molecular Pediatric Disease.

CHARLOTTE--Drivers need to take extra care on the roadways this Independence Day.
According to a new study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, July 4th is declared the deadliest day for teens and other drivers on the road.
For many, July 4th is just a time to celebrate, but officials said more importance needs to put on driving.
"You have people drinking, people that are staying out late and you've got a lot of congestion around events and that's what leads to the accidents," said Tom Crosby, with AAA Carolinas.
The study showed that 800 people were killed in car wrecks on July 4th from 2006 to 2010. In North Carolina, it said 121 people lost their lives during the month of July. Teens account for 10 percent of the fatalities that occur on July 4th, according to the study.
"I think if you're going to let teens go out you need to warn them about the fact that other teens in the car are a major distraction," said Crosby.
While Charlotte resident Emily Porges decided to run an errand Wednesday morning, she said the stats are exactly why she mostly stays in on July 4th.
"I plan to grill out and not go anywhere and you know hang out with the dogs and a few close friends and nobody is driving, so we don't take those risks," said Porges.
Some Charlotte teens told us they have big plans for the 4th this year, but they said being safe on the roadways is one thing they take seriously. However, they know controlling other drivers is out of their hands.
"Especially coming home late at night, there are always people out there that like to break the rules and make it unsafe for everybody else, but I feel like if you're paying attention and being careful out there that's going to lower the risk," said teen driver Brett Cockerhan.
AAA officials said with the holiday falling in the middle of the week, celebrations may be drawn out this year. So they said take care over the next several days.

Middle East and North Africa
Translating the idea of rights into the practice of rights will help people from all communities in the Middle East and North Africa access opportunity.
The Regional Context
As the Egyptian uprising unfolded earlier this year, Ford welcomed the democracy movement and its potential to transform the country and the region. While it remains too early to know what the long-term impact of the Arab Spring will be, our work in the region has taken on new vibrancy and urgency.
We have been on the ground in the Middle East and North Africa since the early 1950s. Over the years we have been a continuous source of support for civil society groups working to advance democratic and accountable government, fundamental human rights, voice and participation, and access to higher education. Today, with an even greater focus on Egypt, we are strengthening our commitment to these vital areas of work in support of the courageous people and organizations striving to fulfill the promise of this historic moment.
Although the past decade has seen economies across the Arab region expand at their strongest rate in generations, this growth has not generated shared prosperity or improved the daily lives of most people. Government services remain inadequate and the legitimacy of the governments themselves is highly contested. Deep-seated discrimination based on gender, age, ethnicity and belief persists. In spite of these challenges, the people of Egypt and the entire region are on the brink of a new era of inclusivity and democracy.
Our Goal
The goal of our work is to empower the marginalized to achieve economic, social and cultural rights.
By supporting citizen groups and promoting increased government effectiveness, accountability and transparency, we believe that people in the region can overcome social, economic and cultural marginalization.
What We're Doing
The foundation's Cairo office concentrates primarily on Egypt, but also promotes advancement in other parts of the region along with regional networking.
Our work focuses on:
- Funding efforts to strengthen the rule of law and human rights protection with a focus on key economic and social rights
- Ensuring that the rights of women and other marginalized people are safeguarded
- Advancing efforts to improve public health, including HIV/AIDS prevention and reproductive health of young people
- Promoting cultural preservation and free expression through independent arts and culture initiatives
- Supporting access to quality higher education opportunities, and promoting higher education reform
- Advancing efforts to make government more transparent, effective and accountable
- Building the capacity of key organizations and institutions
- Facilitating networking and advancing research as the basis for informed debate and policymaking
In fiscal year 2009, the Cairo office made more than $15 million in grants.
Our grant making in the region is pursued through the following initiatives.
|Democratic and Accountable Government
|Gender, Sexuality and Reproductive Justice
|Human Rights
|Educational Opportunity and Scholarship
|Freedom of Expression

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The Topeka Police Department has some new wheels.
The department bought 25 new Ford Interceptor utility vehicles, designed specifically for law enforcement officers.
They've only got one interceptor on the road right now, but they will deploy the other vehicles over the next few months.
Captain Brian Desch says the new vehicles will help them do their jobs better.
"It's all wheel drive, so that's going to enable officers to get around quite a bit better during the winter months, when we have our snow storms," said Desch. "They're a little better acceleration than the older one, a little better gas mileage as well, so hopefully we'll see a little savings in fuel."
The Shawnee County Sheriff's Office as well as the Kansas Highway Patrol are already using the Interceptors.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Some of you may be aware that I have been going to a physiotherapist for the past four months. The intention is two-fold: I needed someone to work with me to strengthen my back muscles so that I could exercise without hurting myself. Secondly, I finally acknowledged that my 20 year strategy of relying on my own will power hasn't worked out so well. I have always had a serious case of "tomorrow-itis" when it came to exercise (with the one notable exception of training for and walking the Camino de Santiago).
Physio Bob serves as my external motivation. Twice a week, he guides me through a 40 minute weight workout (mostly free weights) with a wide variety of exercises to strengthen my core. It's quite intense and is often a cardio workout in and of itself. However, I then go on to do 30-40 minutes of Cardio on the treadmill or the stationary bike. I am always drenched and dripping with sweat by the end of my workout, and I usually hear Scotty's brogue in my head "I've given her all I've got, Captain!"
Except for last Friday.
I was in a bit of a grump that morning. Slight headache. I had stepped on the scale and let myself feel discouraged about the lack of weight loss, even though I know muscle weighs more than fat…blah blah blah. I got through the free-weight workout just fine, but then Physio Bob put me on this cross-training machine to do my Cardio. Imagine a cross between a stair stepper and an elliptical. The movement felt weird and it began to hurt my knees. Grump Grump Grump. Finally, after 7 minutes, I couldn't get out of my own negative head space so I left. "Had enough?" asked Physio Bob. "Gotta go," I muttered, grabbing my bag and bolting for the door. I chastised myself mentally, thinking that I should just go back in and get on the treadmill to finish my workout. But I didn't. And it bugged me.
Along the drive home, there is a stone staircase on the right hand side of the road that wanders up into a wooded area. For months, had wondered about where the stairs went, but I had always driven by. But today, a little voice inside compelled me to stop and climb those stairs – to push myself just a little harder than I had during my workout. So up I went. Every 10 steps or so, there was a short landing, but I didn't stop. 60 steps up, my heart was pounding but I was not out of breath. The stairs took a sharp curve to the right and I saw what remained of my climb. Only about two more landings, then the last 20 steps were a straight climb to the top. I looked back down at my feet and began to pray the Jesus prayer as I walked. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner. I reached the top – 102 steps – without stopping.
Standing at the top, winded, my heart beating so strongly, I felt so powerful. So alive. I slowly walked back down the steps, catching my breath and feeling my heart rate return to its normal rhythm. I felt proud that I chose to climb the steps, even though there was no one around to tell me to do it. I knew that I had done it, and that was satisfying. I also thought about the number of stairs – 102. It represents roughly the number of pounds that I plan to lose. The symmetry and the symbolism resonated with me. I can't really explain it except to say that I felt as if these were my stairs. They were put here for me. They would bear witness to and become a part of this journey that I am on to become physically healthy.
Fast forward to yesterday. I had a great workout with Physio Bob, but I knew it wouldn't be over until I had climbed my stairs. I began the climb, this time with the confidence that I could get to the top without stopping. I looked around and saw, for the first time, that there was an enormous white statue of Jesus in the wooded area at the top of the hill. I had completely missed it the day before, so focused was I on willing my feet to keep moving. Joy welled up inside of me and I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Of course He was here. He's been here all along, putting the right people in my path at the right time to help me get healthy. He's helping me change my negative thinking and feelings about exercise. And in a quirky twist, this time, He sent me a set of stairs to help me begin to make the transition from external to internal motivation. I had such a clear sense in that moment that I was not alone in this journey…that lasting change is possible. I just need to keep trusting and climbing.

CORPUS CHRISTI - The 11-year-old girl who was kidnapped and raped last December came face-to-face with the teenage boy who assaulted her Thursday morning.
Grasping on to a stuffed cat, terrified, and shielding herself from the teen who kidnapped and raped her, the victim took the stand today to tell the jury how she has been since the brutal attack. Breaking down in tears she told the jury, "if he gets out, I'm scared I won't be able to be independent. I'm scared I will see him." She went on to tell the jury that she hasn't been able to live a normal life since the attack... saying, "I have really bad anxiety issues, I'm afraid to go to my friend's houses."
Musich never once looked the victim in the eyes.. And began crying as she left the courtroom. He did the same with the victim's mother as she told the jury, "she doesn't fee safe. She still has to sleep with me. She can't take a shower without me being there. Her independence has gone. She can't be alone."
She also told the jury how her 14-year old son has had issues. At the time of the girl's kidnapping, he was walking the family's pit bull and was walking ahead of his sister. When he realized what was going on, he let the dog go but it was too late. The victim's mother says he hasn't been able to forgive himself ever since.
But his demeanor changed once her father walked in. Musich looked directly at the victim's father as he told the jury,"They took away her innocence. They took away a big part of her life... If I was to to see any of them in public, for me it would be hard to restrain myself."
Jacob Musich's mother took the stand later that afternoon. She told the jury that he had some troubles with synthetic marijuana, but that doesn't explain or justify what he did in December of last year.
"I feel shame. I feel angry. I feel every emotion. But he's still my son. And I don't understand it," said Music's mother Sharon Musich.
Testimony will continue Friday morning. At that time both attornies are expected to give their closing arguments and a jury will decide Musich's punishment.

Canda Cruises Into Spengler Cup FinalSubmitted by pete on December 30, 2005 - 14:09
Canada crushed Czech Extraliga club Sparta Praha today to secure a spot in the tournament final tomorrow. Led by former Lightning player Glen Metropolit's four assists, Canada easily won 8-2. Andy Chiodo was in net for the Canadians. Former Springfield Falcon Jean-Guy Trudel was named Canada's best player for the round-robin portion of the tournament. For Lightning prospect Morgan Cey, his mop up duty against Elsbaren Berlin looks like it may have been his only playing time in the tournament.

Jon Stewart's Greatest Crusades Against the Mainstream Media
On last night's Daily Show, Jon Stewart lodged a pithily accurate critique of CNN's tactless and misinformed reporting on the dubious arrest of a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings. Amid clips of CNN's rambling, self-contradicting shambles of reportage, Stewart quipped, "It's like a news story as imagined by M. Night Shyamalan,"adding that what was "exclusive" about the report is that "it was completely fucking wrong." Stewart topped off his critique with the following astute insight: "We're accustomed to 24-hour news networks thriving on conflict. Generally, though, that conflict is between two outside parties — political opponents, pundits — but CNN's reporters have discovered that they can remove the middle man and spend hours of programming fighting amongst themselves. They have figured out a way to shit in their own mouths. CNN has become the Human Centipede of News." Stewart's superb takedown of CNN impelled us to revisit the best of the political satirist's verbal crusades against the mainstream media. … Read More
CNN Picks Up Morgan Spurlock's Intriguing New Series, 'Inside Man'
Morgan Spurlock has earned quite a reputation for unconventional investigative documentary making. Since famously gorging himself for a month straight on Double Quarter Pounders with cheese and super-size fries, Spurlock has been busy exploring various other idiosyncrasies of American culture. Already this year the Oscar-nominee has delved into the obsessive, Mountain Dew fueled ranks of nerddom with his recent film Comic-Con Episode IV: A Fan's Hope, and confronted the ambivalent meaning of contemporary masculinity with Mansome, which premiered in April.
CNN announced today that Spurlock will be returning to television this spring to host a new original series called Inside Man. Having created and hosted the acclaimed FX series 30 Days, as well as the Hulu exclusive A Day in the Life and the Yahoo web series Failure Club, it seems Spurlock's return to television will be a continuation of his masterful ability to explore ordinary lives in new and interesting ways. … Read More
A Brief Survey of Holograms in Pop Culture
Those of you who missed last night's Coachella performance may have noticed the buzz around the Internet today regarding Tupac Shakur's cameo with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Don't get too excited, he hasn't been alive and in hiding this whole time — not that we know of, at least. The Tupac that everyone saw last night was actually a very elaborate holographic image projected on stage.
Holograms have always fascinated us as a culture for some reason, probably because they're so gosh darned cool in theory — but their execution is sometimes hit or miss (as is the case with the Tupac projection — you're either super weirded out by it or you love it). To celebrate this new creepiness and/or awesomeness, we're looking back at some of our favorite holograms in pop culture and real life. Let us know what you think in the comments! … Read More
