By @WoodyRoseland - 7 Time Cancer Survivor
"Why do you limp?"
"Where did that scar come from?"
"Where've you been the past couple months?"
As you re-enter the real world after having cancer you're faced with these benign questions that often lead to heavy and intense conversations that you might not want to have.
So how do I, as a 7 time cancer survivor deal with these situations? I take the bull by the horns and right off the bat answer all the questions that they might possibly have and diffuse all possible interest. People are inherently curious, but once they find out what is actually going on with you, they'll probably back off about it. You want to make sure to conclude everything with something positive. Cancer is an overwhelmingly negative experience. But when you're having a conversation at the water cooler, you probably don't want to get into all of those things.
"Hey, Woody, I noticed you limping, how come?"
"Well you see, 2 years ago I had my left leg amputated because of bone cancer. It initially started with a lingering pain in my knee that progressively got worse. I'm currently in remission now and my life is back to normal. It was kind of a wild experience going through all of it, but luckily I survived and now I'm back living my life the way I want"
At this point most people are pretty blown away by your honesty. If I've found one thing it's that people really don't want to offend you, so at this point they would rather say nothing that risk saying something inappropriate. So they'll most likely offer you bland encouragement and support.
"Oh, wow. Well congratulations, if you ever need anything let me know."
To which you kindly respond
"Thanks so much, take care!"
Boom Shakalaka! You just diffused that situation like a boss. Congratulations.
Now back to work!

Long-time Ugandan leader gets backing for 2016 runFebruary 12, 2014 @ 4:25 am
KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) - Uganda's ruling party chose the country's long-serving president to be its unopposed candidate for elections in 2016, eliminating the potential challenge of internal rivals who could threaten the leader's nearly 30-year grip on power.
A statement late Tuesday from the ruling party, whose senior officials have been holding a retreat, said President Yoweri Museveni remains the party's "driver" and that "anybody else can wait." The statement slammed Museveni's rivals as a danger to "party cohesion" and urged them to "shelve" their presidential hopes for the sake of party unity, without naming them.
The decision to back Museveni is the culmination of months of an apparent power struggle between the president and his ambitious premier who once was one of his closest allies. As secretary-general of the ruling party, Prime Minister Amama Mbabazi's influence is only eclipsed by Museveni.
Museveni, who took power by force in 1986 following a guerrilla war, is now expected to run again in 2016 when his current term expires. But he faces pressure within and outside his party to preside over the country's first peaceful transfer of power since independence in 1962. A seasoned politician who has held senior government posts over the years, Mbabazi is seen by his supporters as a viable alternative to Museveni.
It now appears Museveni's allies are trying to remove any threat posed by Mbabazi, one of at least three senior party officials frequently mentioned as potential Museveni rivals in upcoming elections. At the ongoing retreat, ruling party members were asked to sign a resolution endorsing Museveni as the only one qualified to lead the party. More than 200 officials _ including Mbabazi _signed the petition, according to a copy of the document released by the ruling party. That resolution is expected to be later ratified by a larger meeting of ruling party members.
"We are safer with a driver who has not only demonstrated ability as the founding leader of the revolution that liberated Uganda but also managed to keep the country together, given its turbulent political history," the petition said. "This driver is none other than President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni."
Some analysts predict Mbabazi may lead a splinter faction within the party if he is ousted from his post as premier.
Mwambutsya Ndebesa, a professor of political history at Uganda's Makerere University, said the unexpected move to endorse Museveni as sole candidate was "orchestrated to frustrate all possible contenders" for the presidency. That decision now silences internal debate about Museveni's possible successor, he said.
Mbabazi was cited in a letter written last year by a Ugandan military general who warned that high-ranking Ugandan officials who opposed the political rise of Museveni's son could be targeted for assassination. Gen. David Sejusa, who is now exiled in London, has since launched a political party opposed to what he says is Museveni's increasingly authoritarian rule.
Museveni has denied he is grooming his son, an army brigadier who heads the country's special forces, to replace him as president.

(A) This rule sets forth the processes for determining an individual's eligibility for medical assistance at initial application or redetermination. Any reference to an application or form in this rule also means its non-English or electronic equivalent.
(B) Calculation of time periods. All calculations of time periods used in the determination and redetermination of eligibility shall be computed as follows:
(1) When counting the number of days in a specified time period, the initial day is excluded from the computation and the last day is included.
(2) When the last day of the time period falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday, the time period shall end on the next working day.
(C) Request for application. When an individual requests an application, the administrative agency shall:
(1) Inform the individual that the beginning date of benefits is dependent upon the date the signed and dated application is received by the administrative agency.
(2) Neither deny an individual's right to apply nor discourage an individual from applying.
(3) Give or mail an application on the day the request is received. The proper application to provide to an individual depends upon the category of medical assistance for which the individual is applying.
(a) The JFS 07200 "Request for Cash, Food Stamp, and Medical Assistance" (rev. 3/2010) is an application for cash and food assistance and for all forms of medical assistance except for the Ohio breast and cervical cancer project (BCCP) outlined in rule 5101:1-41-05 of the Administrative Code.
(b) If the individual wishes to apply for medical assistance for a child or children, a low-income family, a pregnant woman, or an adult up to age twenty-one described in Chapter 5101:1-40 of the Administrative Code, the administrative agency shall provide the JFS 07216 "Combined Programs Application" (CPA) (rev. 2/2010).

(a) The special supplemental food program for women, infants, and children (WIC); and
(b) The child and family health services program (CFHS);
(c) The bureau for children with medical handicaps program (BCMH); and
(d) "The Help Me Grow" (HMG) program.
(ii) If an individual requests WIC, CFHS, or HMG assistance, the administrative agency shall forward copies of the CPA to the appropriate local health department office. If an individual requests BCMH assistance, a copy shall be sent to the bureau for children with medical handicaps.
(c) If the individual wishes to apply for assistance with medicare expenses, the administrative agency shall provide the JFS 07103 "Application for Help with Medicare Expenses" (rev. 9/2009), and inform the individual that additional information is needed to explore eligibility for other medical assistance programs.
(d) If the individual wishes to apply only for coverage under BCCP, the administrative agency shall provide the JFS 07161 "Ohio Breast and Cervical Cancer Project Medicaid Application" (rev. 9/2009), and inform the individual that this is not an application for other medical assistance programs.
(D) Documents. The administrative agency shall give or send the following documents to every applicant at initial application and at every redetermination of eligibility for medical assistance:
(1) Pamphlet describing the local service programs available; and
(2) Preaddressed, postage-paid envelope for return to the administrative agency; and
(3) JFS 07501 "Program Enrollment and Benefit Information" (rev. 07/2011); and
(4) A notice meeting the requirements of section 3503.10 of the Revised Code or JFS 07217 "Voter Registration Notice of Rights and Declination" (rev. 8/2009), and a voter registration form as required by section 329.051 of the Revised Code.
(E) Assistance with application.
(1) The administrative agency shall allow a person or persons of the individual's choice to accompany, assist, and represent the individual in the application or redetermination process.
(2) Authorized representative. Unless otherwise stated in the documents authorizing a representative, an authorized representative shares all responsibilities of an individual. The acts or omissions of an authorized representative shall be deemed to be the acts or omissions of the individual.
(a) An individual who wishes to designate an authorized representative shall, in writing, identify the authorized representative and the duties the authorized representative may perform on the individual's behalf.
(i) The individual shall notify the administrative agency in writing of any change in the authorized representative or the duties the authorized representative may perform.
(ii) When written authorization cannot be obtained due to the individual's incompetence, the administrative agency shall waive the written statement and assist in naming a responsible party to act as authorized representative for the individual.
(b) When the individual has an authorized representative, all notices and correspondence issued by the administrative agency for the individual shall be issued to both the authorized representative and the individual.
(c) The administrative agency may contact an individual to clarify or verify information provided by an authorized representative if the information provided on the application seems contradictory, unclear, or unrealistic.
(3) The administrative agency shall help complete the application if assistance is needed.
(a) An eligibility worker shall, at the individual's request, assist in completing the application by asking the individual for answers needed to complete the application, then recording the individual's answers on the application form or in the electronic eligibility system.
(i) The eligibility worker shall not alter any answers given by the individual.
(ii) If an eligibility worker assists or helps to complete an application, the worker shall sign the application form and include the worker's title.
(b) The normal process of inputting data into the electronic eligibility system or determining an individual's eligibility shall not be construed as providing assistance.
(F) Receipt of initial application.
(1) An application for medical assistance, or a printed copy of an electronic equivalent, must be signed under penalty of perjury by the applicant, an authorized representative, or, if the applicant is incompetent or incapacitated, someone acting responsibly for the applicant.
(2) Upon receipt of any signed application for medical assistance or for specific medicaid services or programs, the administrative agency shall issue a receipt to the individual showing the date of application.
(3) The administrative agency shall accept and register an application on the day a signed application is received, whether it is an original, a facsimile, or an electronic signature ("e-signature") submitted after the approval of an e-signature policy by the Ohio office of information technology and ODJFS. An original signature is not required.
(a) If the application is received by the administrative agency on a day when the administrative agency is closed, the administrative agency must register the application on the next business day and back date the registration date to the date the application was actually received by the administrative agency.
(b) If an application is received from a local WIC clinic, CFHS clinic, or BCMH office within five days of the signature date, the application shall be registered using the signature date. If the application is not received within five days of the signature date, the application shall be registered using the date it was received by the administrative agency.
(c) An application taken by an outstationed worker assigned to a federally qualified health center (FQHC) or a disproportionate share hospital (DSH) must immediately be submitted to the appropriate administrative agency. The administrative agency must register the application using the signature date.
(d) The administrative agency shall not delay the registration or processing of an application due to the lack of a signed JFS 07236.
(G) Determination of eligibility. The CDJFS shall determine eligibility for all medical assistance programs except BCCP.

(i) Every twelve months; or
(ii) The time frames specified in rule 5101:1-40-05 of the Administrative Code for recipients of transitional medical assistance.
(c) Not require an individual complete or sign an application unless all individuals who signed the initial application, or signed an application at a prior redetermination, no longer reside in the household.

(e) Provide to the individual the documents set forth in paragraph (D) of this rule.

If you ever wanted to see who would win in a fight between a pack of baby chickens and a Velociraptor, then have no fear. The highly original animal-based survival simulator Tokyo Jungle will be arriving on the North American PSN next month.
This PS3 exclusive, developed by PlayStation C.A.M.P. and Crispy's, is a post-apocalyptic action-adventure game that takes place in Japan's capital. Humans have gone extinct and so the rest of the animal kingdom steps in to fill our place, ruthlessly fighting for survival through natural selection. Tokyo Jungle has done quite well for itself in Japan, selling over 100,000 copies in its first week alone.
The game offers over 50 playable animals, from deer and hippos all the way to lions and elephants. Tokyo Jungle also offers two modes of play, Story Mode and Survival Mode. In Story Mode you will play as a host of different animals, going through their interconnected lives while slowly discovering the cause for mankind's fate.
Survival Mode, on the the other hand is much more strategic. This mode involves picking an animal and then hunting, occupying territory, and reproducing, all in order to increase your presence in the city and to not go extinct. You eventually earn enough points to unlock other animals, and even better, cute costumes for your animals that make them stronger.
Tokyo Jungle will furiously maul the the North American PSN on September 25 and will only set you back $14.99. If Charles Darwin were still alive, I imagine this would easily be his Game of the Year for sure.

K Restaurant Restaurant Review: K Restaurant's feel is small and neighborly, and the food is unpretentious. Chef Kevin Fonzo offers American fare using local ingredients whenever possible, with some goodies from his own garden at the side of the restaurant. The menu changes often, but selections have included savory beignets with corn and crab, rack of lamb with goat cheese whipped potatoes, locally raised pork loin and mac 'n' cheese with fennel sausage. We also suggest the lamb burger at lunch.

Why does my daughter pass out from time to time, and wake up very lightheaded?
- Q: Why does my daughter pass out from time to time, and wake up very lightheaded?
- A: Fainting spells can occur for a number of reasons, including low blood sugar (or not having enough to eat especially in the morning), not getting enough sleep, and low heart rate. There are many potential causes for low heart rate including hypothyroidism, medications, and Lyme disease. If the fainting occurs during exercise or there is a family history of heart problems, it may be a sign of a more serious heart disease and she should be seen by her doctor to check for any heart problems. For more information, please consult your health care provider. Michelle McDermott, PharmD

In regards to Stephan bringing up bullying and libertarianism, I note that my first article for LRC, Lord of the Flies High, was about bullying, including my own experience.
Stephan's comments remind me of something I've been thinking about in regards to popular misunderstandings of libertarianism. Many outside of the libertarian movement, and some left-libertarians in it seem to have a totally false picture of a libertarian society. They imagine a world without boundaries, where they gambol about wherever they will stoned on their favourite drugs and having sex with whomever they come upon.
This would decidedly NOT be the result of the Misesian/Rothbardian vision come to life. Instead, a libertarian society is a society with extremely strong, well-defined and well-enforced boundaries. The quirky rules of private property owners are respected or you are out on your ear. In many, perhaps most, cases these rules would reflect socially conservative and bourgeois morals… No rudeness, out of control behaviour and definitely no preying on their young women, (Mark Twain wrote a long time ago of the U.S. that "a lady may traverse our states all day, going and coming as she chooses and never be molested by any man."). I would suspect this would be a less litigious society, but certainly a legalistic one.
The "fun" of such a society is not the juvenile one of getting away with murder and doing whatever you feel like, but the adult pleasure of having control of yourself and your property and benefitting from your investments in your work, your home and your family. It is also a society where regular acts of violence and theft by children would not be tolerated.12:43 pm on September 30, 2003 Email Stephen W. Carson

Title: Frosted Fern
Location: Hylands Park
Camera: Canon EOS 30D / 17-85mm EF f/4-5.6 IS USM
Notes: The sun shone for most of the day. But with little or no wind to speak of, it seemed warmer than yesterday, even though there was frost on the ground for most of the time. Delaying work for as long as possible, I went to Hylands Park with Alistair to look for another couple of geocaches. The gardens were rather wintry, and this poor fern looked like it could do with a bit of sun on its leaves!

THE GAME: The Angels took a one-run lead in the top of the eighth but gave up seven in the bottom of the inning to lose, 7-1, to the Arizona Diamondbacks in Scottsdale. The Angels are 8-18-4.
PITCHING REPORT: RHP Jered Weaver was brilliant in his final start of the spring, dominating a lineup of Diamondbacks regulars. Weaver did not allow a hit until he gave up an infield single in the fifth. He ended up allowing two hits and one walk, with three strikeouts... RHP David Carpentergave up the game-tying homer in the eighth inning... RHP Robert Coello allowed the go-ahead two-run double and a three-run homer later in the inning.
HITTING REPORT: CF Peter Bourjos led off the game with a bunt single... J.B. Shuck got the Angels next hit, in the seventh inning, also a bunt single.
DEFENSE REPORT: Navarro made a nice leaping grab of a line drive... SS Andrew Romine went into the hole to backhand a grounder and made a strong throw to first.
UP NEXT: Angels (Garrett Richards) vs. Rangers (Michael Kirkman), 12:05 p.m.
TEMPE, Ariz. – Their names are Exicardo Cayones and Kramer Sneed, but you can just call them by their number: 13.9 million.
Two days after the framework of the deal was reached, the Angels on Tuesday completed their trade of Vernon Wells and cash to the New York Yankees in exchange for Cayones and Sneed, a couple of low-level minor leaguers.
From the Angels' standpoint, the deal was not so much about what they got, but what they got rid of, namely an outfielder they had no use for and $13.9 million worth of his contract.
The Angels gained flexibility, with their roster and their payroll. General Manager Jerry Dipoto addressed only the former, saying the Wells move helped avoid having "too crowded a house."
Dipoto said the Angels didn't envision Wells getting many at-bats behind a starting outfield of Mike Trout, Josh Hamilton and Peter Bourjos, with DH Mark Trumbo also able to play outfield.
"We felt there was a role for Vernon, but a limited role," Dipoto said. "He was a fourth outfielder, but with at-bats closer to what you'd expect for a fifth outfielder based on the presence of Trumbo."
In the meantime, the Angels have a less-experienced bench. Kole Calhoun likely moves up to become the No. 4 outfielder. A backup shortstop (likely Andrew Romine) and a backup catcher (likely Chris Snyder) will take two of the spots, leaving infielders Brendan Harris, Luis Jimenez, Efren Navarro and Luis Rodriguez and outfielder J.B. Shuck in the mix for the last spot.
Roster composition aside, the payroll flexibility was obviously the most significant reason for the deal.
Yankees are paying $11.5 million of Wells' contract in 2013, and $2.4 million next year, with the Angels picking up the rest of Wells' $21 million annual salary. That lowers the Angels 2013 payroll to around $148 million.
The Angels are likely to save even more than the $13.9 million of Wells' salary the Yankees are absorbing. With Wells on the roster, the Angels' payroll would have been right around the $178 million threshold. The luxury tax payroll is calculated using average annual values, so it's higher than the actual payroll.
Any money the Angels spent over that threshold – on bonuses or players acquired by trade – would have been taxed at 17.5 percent. Also, the rate would have increased for each subsequent year the Angels were over the threshold.
As for the players the Angels got back, both are low-level players and neither is considered a top prospect.
Sneed was a 32nd-round draft pick in 2010. Dipoto likes his career average of more than one strikeout per inning, and said Sneed has a chance to be a part of a major league bullpen. Sneed, 24, has a career 4.39 ERA in the minors, but he's averaged more than a strikeout per inning.
Cayones, 21, is a career .261 hitter who has never played above Class-A. The left-handed swinging Venezuelan outfielder was traded to the Yankees in the A.J. Burnett deal last year.
The Angels outrighted right-hander Steven Geltz off the 40-man roster, but he will remain in the organization. With the Geltz and Wells moves, the Angels' have four open spots on the 40-man roster. The Angels are likely to need at least a couple of those for players who will win bench jobs. ... Left-hander Brandon Sisk underwent Tommy John surgery on Tuesday. Sisk was acquired in the Ervin Santana trade. ...C.J. Wilson's turn in the rotation will be pushed back a day so he will not have too much rest before his first start of the regular season, next Wednesday. Wilson will pitch in a minor league game on Thursday in Arizona. Joe Blanton, Jason Vargas and Tommy Hanson will start the three games against the Dodgers in the Freeway Series.

You may have heard about this rooftop boîte on the top of the NoMad Hotel, where they may or may not be serving elegant dinners and holding secret Satanic rites.
OK, we made that last part up.
But until the cupola opens, whet your al fresco appetite at Tavern 29, a moody triple-decker den featuring a succinct selection of burgers and beer cocktails, with more refined stuff in between.
Kick back on the darkened first two floors with your best robber baron impression, digging into a romesco-sauced hanger steak over a glass of cabernet and plotting your next hostile takeover.
Aspiring industrialists can huddle up to the bar over an Astor or a Waldorf — made with 10-year Balvenie and sweet vermouth — and suck down cornmeal crusted oysters. Just like a Rockefeller.
There's also a fine house burger on rosemary focaccia, and a cool cocktail dubbed The Bronx is Burning (Bronx Brewery IPA laced with whiskey and ginger ale).
Then, head to the roof, where magnates and their minions mingle all together, sipping stouts and snacking on sausages, and speculating on just what is developing on top of that hotel down the street.
Don't forget your binoculars.
Tavern 29
47 E. 29th St (Madison Ave.), NoMad
(212) 685-4422
Price: 3 (out of 4) Noise: 2 (out of 4)
Subway: 6 to 28th St.
Scene: Flatiron folk desperate for a respite from Madison Square Park.
Best bets: Cornmeal oysters; Tavern burger; Bronx Is Burning cocktail
Hot seat: You're here for the roof.
Touch of the Irish: Tavern 29's owner hails from Stone Street Tavern, so expect a similar level of class-meets-meat-and-potatoes.

Barack Obama today stands alone — a President without a party that supports him, an electorate that no longer trusts him and and destroyed coalition of independents that feel abandoned and betrayed.
It will take more than slick politics to save Obama's President. It will take more than an unifying national tragedy. It will take a miracle — the kind of miracle that just doesn't happen in today's volatile political environment.
Ironically, the man credited just two years ago with all but destroying the Republican Party is now blamed by Democrats and independents with bringing that party back from near death to the new majority in the House and one poised to recapture the Senate and White House in 2012. Democratic senior advisers privately tell Capitol Hill Blue that Obama should consider bowing out in 2012.
How it happened is a case study of people theory versus reality while the rise of a volatile, activist electorate with no firm political allegiance means candidates of diverse views can win elections as long as they run primarily against the status quo.
Conservative Republicans and liberal Democrats — driven by tapping the same voter anger against the "corruption in Washington" unseated incumbents or beat the hand-picked heir apparent of standard party leadership. And while the influx of newcomers from the Tea Party is mostly part of the Republican Party, the anger that brought them to Washington is philosophical, not political, and a new crop of Tea Party hopefuls in 2012 could well fun against the GOP.
And a unifying factor for the right and the left, the conservative and the liberal or the Democrat and the Republican will be one man: Barack Obama — he progressie who wasn't, the leader who isn't and the President who ain"t.
Obama has managed to alienate more factions than Jimmy Carter and generates more animosity than George W. Bush. He is a President without portfolio, a leader without followers and a head of state of a state that many consider a headlesss horseman galloping headlong towards disaster.
Mark Halperin, writing in Time, notes:
The coalition that got Barack Obama elected President just two years ago has been shattered. Gaming out the trajectory of the next two years can be done any number of ways, but Obama's efforts to rebuild a politically robust alliance will be the most telling. It may be the biggest challenge of his career – and he will need happenstance along with skill if he is going to get it done.
A survey of the political landscape shows that many groups who were part of the 2008-09 Obama coalition have turned on him. Liberals believe he is an overcompromising wimp. The business community considers Obama ignorant about markets at best, a socialist at worst (O.K., some business people entertain an even harsher assessment). The media, after aiding and abetting his ride to the White House, now see the President as incompetent and overwhelmed. The independents and Republicans who backed him for office currently feel he is too liberal and too weak to do the job. These trends are all worse in Washington and among opinion leaders than they are in the country at large, but the views of elites are clearly shaping how the President is perceived by the nation in general.
It's not often that one sees an American President without a country but it not appears we have one.
In a word: NO
It's my personal assessment that Barack Obama doesn't like the job of President and will be quite satisfied with a single term. He's set for life with a nominal 4.5 million per annum retirement along with SS protection etc. He'll make a fortune on the speaking circuit no different than Bill Clinton and no doubt will start a foundation too.
Bill Clinton's foundation has grown to over a half billion dollars. His wife as Secretary of State is endlessly making business contacts along with Bill's connections and no doubt will continue bring up the bottom line for both of them post holding office. So life is good for 'retired' preesidents even it only a single term.
Barack Obama's presidency has served a purpose as simply a synthesized candidate ready to be activated and used when necessary on the part of the Republicans who are the flagship party of the wealthy elite. He's demonstating he's definitely a friend of the wealthy class to date. His 'compromise' on this issue was a fait accompli from the beginning; ie, him rolling over and not allowing the tax cuts to expire and rest assured they'll be extended again unless national insolvency comes home to roost prior to 2012. Besides whatever tax revenues to be derived from taxing the wealthy class are coming far too late and won't make a dent in paying down any public debt. When you are dealing in trillions of dollars, the debt has moved into the astronomical numbers zone. There is to be no redemption for this nation with the likes of this president et al. before him along with our now totally corrupt Congressional contingent.
Carl Nemo **==
Obama's biggest problem is that he came into office thinking his victory made him the KING. He could make everything his way or the highway. He could appoint executive branch Czars to do his bidding outside the constitutional order. He could force his opinions of what Americans should want into law… or maybe better, his policy. In a word, he could IGNORE what anyone wanted besides himself. At this juncture he has shown that even his supporters… his coalilition… need no heed.
Now, none of this would necessarily be bad, if the people were of the same mind, but the problem is that he's got an entire world view that is at odds with who we are as a people and a country. We'll be much better off when he's gone.
God Bless America.
Yeah. He'll be a one-term president, if we're lucky.
After Bush (GW) and Obama, I don't have a lot of confidence that the American electorate will do better the next time. They'll vote for whoever the media's infatuated with at the time. And that will be whoever the media corporations are told that they will be infatuated with. And on it goes.
Yes. God Bless America.
The GOP is no longer a reliable point of view. The agenda is lost in a search for an American Idol. The Republican National Committee has no valid agenda except the words of Limbaugh. Listening to Fox and Limbaugh has captured the minds of the weakest among us. 18 years of watching television has mesmerized the working brains of people.
Years ago I read a series of historical novels on the men behind the Inquisition. They worked through the individual churches and managed to empower the people of England, France and Spain into following the orders within the bible. I can think of no better example of hatred between human beings. Many Americans today often refer to "Raymond's Mother' which is a character from The Manchurian Candidate." The movie passed quickly over the actual brainwashing that was used on Raymond and his fellow prisoners.
I watch an ultra liberal cable news channel knowing that I know the difference between right and wrong. What I cannot tolerate is the essence of taxing Americans a la Robin Hood. Life is not fair; people like Elizabeth had to bury her first son and then ended up marrying a wimp and adulteror.
The redistribution of wealth has died under a Liberal President. Get over it!
Is Obama a cause or a symptom? By now it's obvious that candidate Obama never crossed the bridge to President Obama. His whining at his latest press conference confirms for me that this individual is the most egocentric self-absorbed person to ever occupy the White House. I think this is the result of the systme we now have, and Obama is just the latest sampling of very expensive mediocrity.
Doug Thompson has on more than one occasion expressed his opinion about how corrupt our system is. While not a trained historian, my lifelong interest in it leads me to believe that some watershed event is going to be the catalyst that blows the roof off the house. I don't know how or in what fashion, but looking back at presidents, senates, and congresses over the decades of my life, the quality keeps eroding. When it gets to the point that the American voter is given a choice between shinola or shyte, they can't rightly be blamed for making the "wrong choice' because there never was one in the first place.
I have a good friend, going back over 40 years. Being a disabled veteran is no bowl of cherries, but my friend wound up in Vietnam and the consequences were horrendous. We talk politics a lot, and we both voted for Obama out of hope. And faith. We feel betrayed by Obama's actions, and wonder what is going to happen next. I DO know that people like us, despite a love for our nation and having walked the walk, are not even on the radar of our "leaders."
So, if President Obama is miffed at our sense of outrage and disappointment, then I guess he can label me an ingrate. Keep reassuring me as you have been doing sir, and I can guarantee you that I won't meet you at the polls in 2012.
You have to go back to Millard Filmore to find someone who has worked so hard to alienate both parties and independents as well. This is far beyond Carter or Bush.
Not in all of history have we witnessed such as was the conflagration of calculated, manipulated, confabulation, and overall directed ineptitude we were made to suffer to the degree of the last Bush presidency.
Alienate is a big word Robert, why drag the bunny assassin into it?
I believed Obama to be "all hat and no cattle" as they say. I was a Hillary supporter, not because I was a Hillary fan, but felt strongly she would do a better job than McCain or the community organizer.
He had a fluffed up paper thin resume' and that silly slogan that seemed to stick.
I don't blame anyone for voting for Obama. The alternative wasn't so hot either.
As for me, I am probably not going to vote in another national election.
When the choice is between a cup of sewer and a cup of sewer, well, I will just take a pass.
Come on Dear, if you don't vote you can't count, if you don't count, how are we ever going to add up ?

Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh today lashed out Mathew Hayden terming him the �biggest chicken hearted cricketer� he has ever seen and said the Australian�s remarks against him for missing the Nagpur Test were �a lot of crap� to sell his book.
�I don�t know what these Australian cricketers are up to? Even Ricky Ponting wrote a lot of crap to sell his book and now this guy Hayden is doing so,� Harbhajan fumed while giving his reaction to PTI.
The former Australian opener in his autobiography �Standing My Ground� had said that erstwhile Indian captain Sourav Ganguly and Harbhajan chickened out after having a look at the bouncy Nagpur strip during Australia�s tour of 2004. He had even expressed his surprise in the manner in which Harbhajan had �food poisoning� on the eve of that Test which Australia won convincingly.
�Who is Mathew Hayden to judge Harbhajan Singh�s calibre.
I don�t know what he is smoking these days. Probably he was in some kind of trip when he wrote all that rubbish. Should I now give Hayden some money to keep quiet?� If that wasn�t enough, Harbhajan said that he is still willing to bowl if Hayden has the heart enough to face him.
�This is an open challenge. Whenever and wherever Hayden wants me to bowl at him, I am ready. Does he have the courage to face me. Because, whenever I have seen him bat against me, he always had a petrified look. Just check the record books in case you want to know how many times I have got him out.� Referring to Hayden�s term of �Greentrackitis�, Harbhajan said, �I have scored half century even in Australian soil. May be Hayden has this habit of conviniently forgetting the achievements of Indian cricketers. At the end of the day, he doesn�t have the qualification to judge the calibre of Indian cricketers.�

|At a friends farm, I noticed a shrub with berries very much like white baneberry (Actaea pachypoda.) He called the shrub 'red osier.' Is this the same, or a totally different plant?
Follow-Up Postings:
|diff where i come from.
- Posted by garden_witch z5 MI (My Page) on Mon, Jul 26, 04 at 19:09
|Thanx for the links froggy =) Since berries are very similar, (main reason I have been wanting baneberry) might go dig up some of the osier anyway!
|The baneberry will stay as a smallish plant and will make more through seeding. The red osier is a shrub or small tree which will spread and grow larger, and may overtake plants near it. It likes damp and ditches, though it will survive without them. It likes sun, where the baneberry seems to prefer some shade, at least.
|There is also a Red Baneberry which has bright red berries and the berries are listed as being toxic.It grows wild in my area.

Dear Natalie, I typed. My fingers froze over the keys. Was I really prepared to tell this woman I had never met that Id been sleeping with her boyfriend? I continued: Im Robs teaching assistant, and Ive been having an affair with him. He lied to me about you. Its over, and Im sorry.
I clicked send before I could rethink my decision, which wasnt really a decision at all, but movements spurred by rage and nausea. Rob was a 30-year-old professor; I was a 26-year-old grad student.
We met for the first time at a Faculty Club party. We talked briefly over gin and tonics, and he asked me to assist him with a course called "The History of Modern Africa." I was writing my dissertation on Turkey, but for someone as handsome as Rob, I could teach Africa.
We designed a syllabus together, chose books, discovered our shared adoration of Nobel Prize-winner J.M. Coetzee. We marveled like children at every coincidence: Our birthdays were a day apart; our fathers were both scientists; his ancestors were Arctic explorers and I had always wanted to visit the Arctic. I would sit in the back of the classroom when he lectured, composing treatises on love at first sight. When I taught, he would sit in the front row and smile like an imp.
My favorite days were the ones we taught together. Selfishly, I always hoped that our students would notice an intimate glance between us, or even catch us on a date.
We started meeting for dinner. Then drinks after dinner. We discovered that we both loved poet Louise Glück. One night, after dinner and drinks, we took my dog for a walk along the Charles River. It was National Poetry Week, and someone had put up little signs in the grass with verse printed on them. We stumbled upon Earthly Love. Rob kissed me in the cold March wind, our legs tangled in the short leash. My stomach felt like waterfalls on fire.
He preferred to visit me in my windowless studio in Harvard Square, but a few times, we spent the night at what he called the family apartment, defiling the guest bedroom as I ignored the closed doors, backward picture frames, and pile of handwritten letters on the kitchen table.
He had told me about Natalie early in our relationship. But he was vague, describing her as a partner with whom he had fallen out of love and was in the process of leavinga process slowed by her current residence in a mysterious Saharan nation with no phones or internet.
After he told me about her, I snuck a peek at the letters in their home. There was an envelope with a stamp and postmark from Mali. Is she in Mali? I asked.
No, shes out in the desert.
I knew Mali was in the desert. I think I knew I was in their house. But I chose to imagine a world with indeterminate spacesNatalie, lost in nationless Sahara-land; me, surrounded by locked doors in a house with no owner.
I asked him whether he loved Natalie. He said no. A couple months later, when I e-mailed Natalie, I considered telling her this. I decided not to, only because I was afraid she wouldnt believe me.
Six months after I met Rob, he left for a trip to Rome. Although it was a research trip, he told me that Natalie was going to meet him there. He promised he would finalize the breakup.
Rob had been in Rome for two weeks when I finally got an e-mail from him. He told me he hadnt been able to write before. (I'd always known Italy to have reliable electricity and more web cafes than trattorias.) I started scouring the Internet, and easily found Natalies online photo site, teeming with pictures of her and Rob kissing under the Arch of Constantine and strolling in the Piazza Navona. I knew they hadnt broken up.
Rage comes more naturally to me than hurt. My skin tightened around my body, and my fingers flew into what felt like involuntary action. I immediately e-mailed Rob, instructing him never to contact me again. But his riddance from my life wasnt enough. I knew the truth, and Natalie didnt. My fingers kept moving.
