Since That Day...you know the one--the one that took my breath away, made me think I heard it all wrong, the one that for the first time TRULY made me question what kind of world we live in--well since then I've been wondering what to do here, with this blog. I certainly couldn't come on here and NOT speak of it. But what can I say? What can I say that will be different than everyone else? I have visions of being so eloquent and saying wonderful things and getting it all right, but instead I am just going to do the best I can.
The thing about Friday? It isn't about "us" and "them", because there is no reason we weren't them. That's the part that makes this so hard for everyone, not just the Newtown community. Those 20 kids could have been our kids. Those 6 women could have been our moms, sisters, wives, girlfriends (and soon to be fiancees). Having it be in our tiny state drives that fact home even more.
I'm "okay" if I think about that day in the abstract. As soon as I put myself in those moms shoes...it takes a lot to keep it together...and I cannot think of ONE thing any single person could do that would make anything feel better.
I think that that is where I struggle. I want, NEED even, to do something to make it a little bit better for those families, that community. So, I am going to do the best I can.
My cousin lives in Newtown with his wife and fifth-grade son. While I am so grateful that they were not directly involved in the events, they are far from untouched. He has been posting legitimate ways to help the community (as opposed to the frauds out there). The only thing I can think to do with this platform I have is to share them with you.
1. Two of the boys, Chase Kowalski and Benjamin Wheeler were part of the same Cub Scout Pack 170. Also in the same pack were the siblings of Caroline Previdi, Catherine Hubbard, and Dylan Hockley. The Pack 170 has set up a Memorial Fund to support the five families. Checks can be made out to "Pack 170". They are also accepting cards and letters for the families to the same address:

"Snowflake" drop boxes will be available at all schools or can be mailed to: Connecticut PTSA, 60 Connolly Parkway, Building 12, Suite 103, Hamden, CT 06514, by January 12, 2013.
3. Connecticut PTSA Sandy Hook Fund
Donations are being accepted indefinitely to the: "Connecticut PTSA Sandy Hook Fund" to support the ongoing needs of the Sandy Hook Community. Send checks to "Connecticut PTSA, 60 Connolly Parkway, Building 12, Suite 103, Hamden, CT 06514.

A couple months ago, speculation ran wild about Spartans Stand Tall, a "secret" website that was revealed when God of War III players earned a Platinum Trophy, and which featured nothing but animated rain and a strange, circular meter in the shape of a Spartan shield. Today, we finally learned what the site was teasing: A new PSP God of War prequel, titled Ghost of Sparta.
If you spent much time playing God of War: Chains of Olympus on PSP, you know this is exciting news - especially when you consider that developer Ready at Dawn, the studio behind Chains of Olympus and Daxter (widely considered two of the best PSP games), is behind Ghost as well. Despite all appearances of following up on the apocalyptic condition Kratos left the world in at the end of GoWIII, Ghost of Sparta will actually be an interquel set after the first God of War, but before the second.
According to Sony PR manager Eric Levine, who posted the news on the PlayStation Blog, Ghost of Sparta will focus on Kratos' rise to power as the god of war (what, you didn't think he was just given the job, did you?). "In his quest to rid the nightmares that haunt him," Levine wrote, "Kratos must face his dark past to prove his worthiness to the Gods — a journey that will reveal the origins of lost worlds and finally answer long-awaited questions about Kratos' tattoo, scar, and family."
So that's exciting news, even if we're pretty sure Kratos' scar came from being run through with the Blade of Olympus at the beginning of God of War II.
Above: Remember?
You may recall we're pretty big fans of the series around here, so any news of a new God of War - whether interquel, prequel, sequel or fixated on scars that have already been explained - is welcome. Expect to see a lot more of this when E3 rolls around next month.

China investigating a top party official
Published By United Press International
BEIJING, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- The Chinese government, under new leadership, ordered a corruption investigation of a top Communist Party official in Sichuan province, the official media said.
China Daily, quoting an unnamed source, reported Li Chuncheng, 56, deputy secretary of the Sichuan Communist Party who was elected an alternate member of the powerful Central Committee at last month's party congress, was taken to Beijing this week.
The newspaper, quoting analysts, said the investigation of Li for alleged disciplinary violations reflected the party's determination to fight corruption. But no details about any of the charges against Li were provided.
"Inspectors arrived in Chengdu on Sunday and talked with Li in the evening. He was taken the next morning to Beijing and provincial-level officials in Sichuan were briefed about the case in the afternoon," the report quoted the source as saying.
Chengdu is the capital of the southwestern Sichuan province.
The report said the investigation followed a series of recent cases where officials were investigated for corruption and dismissed. It said there was speculation the investigation was related to allegations of corruption against Dai Xiaoming, chairman of the Chengdu Industry Investment Group, a large state-owned enterprise. Dai, identified as a protege of Li, has been under investigation since August for alleged corruption, the source told China Daily.
Li had been deputy mayor of Harbin, capital of Heilongjiang province, before becoming mayor of Chengdu in 2001, and before being promoted to the provincial party post in 2011.
The accusation against Li follows the huge scandal earlier this year that resulted in the ouster of Chongqing province party leader Bo Xilai, once regarded as a rising star within the party hierarchy.
Bo faced corruption and abuse of power charges, which came after his equally prominent wife, Gu Kailai, was sent to prison on a murder conviction in the death of British businessman Neil Heywood. Bo's former police chief, Wang Lijun, also was imprisoned in the Heywood case.
China's new leader Xi Jinping has repeatedly stressed the need to fight official corruption, which has become a major problem with the economic boom in the country, now the world's second-largest economy after the United States.

This lamp is absolutely jaw-dropping gorgeous! The cabochon accents really add depth to the design. The colors were not quite what I was expecting from the photo, but it definitely works. The base is sturdy solid. The background is a creamy gold. The main design is glass with swirls of gold, amber, orange & red contrasted with yellow/green, green, brown & violet. the cabochons are clear, amber and red. The lamp has a chameleon-type quality that would probably make it look good in many decors due to the mixing of colors in the swirled glass. The overall look reminds me of the elegance of the stained glass designs in old churches. I highly recommend this product. Excellent quality and excellent value.
First, i must say that this is my first time writing a negative review. I have been a regular customer of Overstock for a long time and intend to continue to be one. I absolutely love this lamp and the shade is beautifully crafted, but don't trust the color representation in the description. What appear to be mostly golden pieces of glass are mostly green on the lamp I received. I realize that these are individually crafted and am willing to accept the color change since it still matches the colors of my room. HOWEVER, please be warned that when the description lists the base as being "metal" - perhaps the pieces holding the shade are metal, but the base of the lamp is NOT metal". I was cleaning the lamp the other day and the base accidentally fell from my hands onto the carpet. To my shock & dismay, one of the fluted ridges of the base simply cracked through and through. Pieces of the "finish" cracked off to reveal some kind of foam. If I had not installed the adhesive felt on the bottom of the base, it would have completely come off, but now I have a cracked base held together by a felt bottom. I will try to glue it together, BUT am very disappointed that it is not metal. It appears to be some kind of dense foam. This is the first time I have had a negative experience with an Overstock order, and will not hold this defective product against them - just BUYER BEWARE on this lamp!
I bought this based on other reviews and love it. It glows beautifully. Copper foil stained glass is tricky to do and this is well done. No big gaps filled with solder. Packing and assembly were the best. If I had more space, I would buy more.
Very nice, the true beauty of the shade is very pretty when lit up. You can corporate so many colors in the room that you use it in; because of the multiple colors in the shade. I also like the fact that you can use the chains or the clicker switch to turn it off and on. Another nice additional feature, you can turn one light bulb on or both light bulbs. Also has substance to the weight of the lamp, is not flimsy. I really am enjoying my new lamp.
This is a beautiful Tiffany lamp, with rich glowing jewel-like colors. It arrived very securely packed, and took me just a minute to put together and have switched on in my living room. It is very heavy and strong, and it along with the amazing matching torchiere are focal-points in the room. The workmanship on the glass is not perfect, but it is definitely good enough - when the lights are on, it LOOKS perfect. I simply can't take my eyes off them. I couldn't be more impressed with the great stained glass lighting Overstock sells - this is my 4th piece, and I don't think I'm finished yet.
We have had many compliments on this lamp. People cannot believe that it came from Overstock. We are very satisfied
Once again Overstock.com comes through with a quality lamp at a reasonable price.!
I really love this lamp! I've had it for several years and it's held up well and looks great. I love the art-nouveau styling and colors. It complements a traditional decor but is versatile too, I think. A very nice lamp for the price! It looks much more pricey than it was here on Overstock and we've had many complements on it. The only thing that I wondered about when I first got it was whether all of the pieces of the lampshade were stained glass or not. They felt like plastic at first. I don't know for sure if every single piece truly is glass, and be careful with the shade because lead is pretty soft and if pressed too firmly, the shade may bend a bit. But overall, I'm very happy with my purchase!
The lamp is pretty, however the description is misleading. It says it is made of hand cut stained glass. This is not true. It is plastic. I was very disappointed. I will be hesitant to buy anything again.
This lamp was just as promised and even prettier than I expected....it is perfect for where I had in mind placing it....so glad to find it at Overstock.com...great value and a very satisfied customer....it was packaged well and no damage at delivery. Thanks Overstock.com

A comparative protease stability study of synthetic macrocyclic peptides that mimic two endocrine hormones.
Summary of "A comparative protease stability study of synthetic macrocyclic peptides that mimic two endocrine hormones."
Peptide therapeutics have traditionally faced many challenges including low bioavailability, poor proteolytic stability and difficult cellular uptake. Conformationally constraining the backbone of a peptide into a macrocyclic ring often ameliorates these problems and allows for the development of a variety of new drugs. Such peptide-based pharmaceuticals can enhance the multi-faceted functionality of peptide side chains, permitting the peptides to bind cellular targets and receptors necessary to impart their role, while protecting them from degrading cellular influences. In the work described here, we developed three cyclic peptides, VP mimic1, VP mimic2 and OT mimic1, which mimic endocrine hormones vasopressin and oxytocin. Making notable changes to the overall structure and composition of the parent hormones, we synthesized the mimics and tested their durability against treatment with three proteases chosen for their specificity: pepsin, alpha-chymotrypsin, and pronase. Vasopressin and oxytocin contain a disulfide linkage leaving them particularly vulnerable to deactivation from the reducing environment inside the cell. Thus, we increased the complexity of our assays by adding reducing agent glutathione to each mixture. Subsequently, we discovered each of our mimics withstood protease treatment with less degradation and/or a slower rate of degradation as compared to both parent hormones and a linear control peptide.

Between the cookies, the chocolate, the rich, cream-filled side dishes, and all.the.alcohol, almost everyone has a bout of indigestion due to overindulgence this time of year.
Ulcerative colitis, several ulcers, and former bowel surgery keeps me battling various tummy troubles throughout the year, so I'm somewhat of an expert in natural remedies for indigestion. Trust me, I have tried every natural and pharmaceutical "cure" for every kind of stomach trouble known to man (and woman). The following are items I personally stock in my medicine cabinet all the time. In fact, I lost my DigestZen essential oil blend 2 months ago. It's rather expensive but I was about to replace it, when it fell out of the cabinet one day. It was like the Hallelujah Chorus was playing.
These are my must-have, absolutely essential natural remedies that I keep on hand constantly, and they can help you, too. Whether suffering from a stomach bug, morning sickness, or just plain old sour stomach, give these a try.
Natural Remedies for Indigestion:
doTERRA DigestZen or Young Living Di-Gize – both are essential oil blends containing a blend of peppermint, anise, and other oils. DigestZen quite literally saved my summer vacation after I fell ill the first night. It's wonderful for indigestion, nausea, diarrhea, stomach cramps, and trapped gas. It covers a LOT of bases. I have this on hand always. Take it like a gut-healing shot: 1 drop of oil in 1 oz of water.
Peppermint Essential Oil – Peppermint is one of the most popular essential oils for good reason. Rub a few drops on the abdomen for cramping and pain. Massage it on the collarbone or behind the ears to relieve or prevent gagging. Peppermint is also wonderful for migraines – a few drops on the temples does the trick. Pure undiluted oil can be taken internally, but do this with caution and only 1 drop at a time.
Nux Vomica Digestive Remedy - This is a very effective homeopathic remedy for that over-full, bloated feeling after eating too much. 5 tiny pellets do the trick. I recently tried this after being given a free sample, but have since purchased it for myself after seeing how well it works.
Ginger Tea – A must for every household "medicine" cabinet. One strong cup after meals helps aid digestion. If the taste is too strong, it can be sweetened with raw honey. Ginger tea, perhaps with a drop of pure lemon juice, is also a great relief for colds and flu. It's easy to make raw ginger tea, but if you prefer the convenience of tea bags, I really like either Traditional Medicinals Organic Ginger Aid or Yogi Stomach Ease Tea. To make raw ginger tea, peel 1″ of ginger root. Slice it up and add it to 1 1/2 cup boiling water. Let steep five minutes, strain the ginger out, and drink.
Heather's Tummy Tamers Peppermint Oil Capsules – Heather's Tummy Tamers are an old standby. They are a blend of enteric-coated peppermint, ginger, and fennel oils. Together, these capsules contain strong antispasmodics which help sooth the GI tract. Sometimes peppermint oil can lead to heartburn, so the enteric-coated capsules are a good solution. The capsules don't open until they are past the stomach, preventing heartburn.
See how I prevent stomach flu here.

Letter from the Executive Director
In Their Own Words: Dr. Eric Lander
300 and Counting
Exoneration Nation
|300 Lives Resumed
|Innocence by the Numbers
The Innocence Project was founded in 1992 by Barry C. Scheck and Peter J. Neufeld at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University to assist prisoners who could be proven innocent through DNA testing. To date, nearly 300 people in the United States have been exonerated by DNA testing, including 17 who served time on death row. These people served an average of 13 years in prison before exoneration and release. The Innocence Project's full-time staff attorneys and Cardozo clinic students provided direct representation or critical assistance in most of these cases. The Innocence Project's groundbreaking use of DNA technology to free innocent people has provided irrefutable proof that wrongful convictions are not isolated or rare events but instead arise from systemic defects. Now an independent nonprofit organization closely affiliated with Cardozo School of Law at Yeshiva University, the Innocence Project's mission is nothing less than to free the staggering numbers of innocent people who remain incarcerated and to bring substantive reform to the system responsible for their unjust imprisonment.

WWLucy's Bloghttp://www.americanwoodworker.com/blogs/wwlucy/atom.aspxCommunity Server2011-04-27T22:02:00ZWoodworking Tools/blogs/wwlucy/archive/2011/04/27/woodworking-tools.aspx2011-04-28T04:02:00Z2011-04-28T04:02:00Z

There are 11 basic woodturning tools used in wood working: roughing gouge, spindle gouge, bowl gouge, skew chisel, parting tool, hallowing tool, scraper, bowl saver, auger, chatter tool, and wire.

Creating a wood project requires certain tools to perfectly cut, drill, carve, or shape the wood. So that you can efficiently produce a well-made wood product, your tools must be sharped and maintained at all times. Below are the different types of woodturning tools to use in making a wood project:

Roughing gouge

This is a flat cutting tool that produces a large cut. It will roughly shape a wooden spindle and is ideal for the initial cutting of wood pieces. It is not advisable to use a roughing gouge when making a bowl shaped item.

Spindle gouge

This is also known as a detail gouge. It is a shallow cutting tool that is responsible for the detailed turning pattern of a spindle.

A bowl gouge has a longer handle than the spindle gouge and is responsible for turning large bowls. The thicker shaft one this tool allows you to cut farther away from you than other gouges.

Skew chisel

This angled edge chisel is used to smooth spindles with flat surfaces. It also adds detail, which is why it should be sharpened at all times.

Parting tool

This tool separates large and small diameter sizes of straight edge wood. It is a pointed tool and has wider sizes that are known as bedans. The parting tool produces even cuts on spindles.

Hallowing tool

This tool is used to make deep bowls and any other projects that require the hallowing out of a particular area. Among all cutting tools, the hallowing tool has the longest handle to enable you to reach deeper when you are hallowing wood.

This tool, when dull, scrapes the fiber of the wood to smooth wood surfaces. It can also be used to shape wood that cannot be shaped by gouges. A sharp scraper has a burr at the edge and is used to cut wood.

A bowl saver functions like an ice cream scoop. It scoops out solid wood pieces when hallowing wood. A bowl saver stores the interior wood core that is scraped off until you are ready to turn the wood core into a smaller bowl or other hollowed wood item.

An auger is a drilling tool that initially hollows or holes a wood. This tool produces cylindrical holes in wood items.

Chatter tool

A chatter tool is a scraper that can create "chatter marks" on turned wood. These marks are for decorative purposes.

Manager: Chris Bagby

My Website: Oneway Lathes, for Serious Woodturning

Wires are rubbed on the wood to burn lines into it. Some wires come with attached handles on each side.

More specific types of woodturning tools also function for other special purposes. For basic woodturning needs, however, start with the tools mentioned above.

Surfers Against Sewage come up with creative Christmas ideas
You wouldn't go swimming in a cesspool and surfers don't like surfing among trash. Surfers Against Sewage (SAS), located in the UK, decided to make the point during Christmas to venders who were leaving trash behind on beaches. So they carefully constructed a couple of Christmas plans to get their point across.
Two years ago, a SAS campaign had volunteers collecting identifiable marine litter and mailing it back to the manufacturer. They collected the stuff, boxed it, wrapped it and sent it off. It was called the "Return to Offender" campaign. The group understood that the manufacturers didn't actually do the littering themselves, but wanted them to improve (if not actually create) anti-littering messages to their customers. Old bottles of soda, suntan lotion and food wrappers don't make for safe beaches.
The plethora of plastics and other litter on our beaches is not only an eyesore, but also a persistent and long-lasting danger to surfers, beach users, recreational water sports enthusiasts, and the wildlife and habitats all around the UK's coastline.
That danger exists whether it is a beach in the UK, Bahamas, or California.
Facebook is a wonderful venue and this year SAS decided to deliver a message to Mountain Dew UK. The group had found 55 empty Mountain Dew bottles on the beach after the Boardmasters festival this year. They creatively constructed a Mountain Dew Christmas tree, photographed it, and posted it on Mountain Dew's Facebook page along with comments. SAS supporters continued to post and comment, to get their message across.
If nothing else, SAS members are creative in getting their message out and it is a creativity that can be spread from beaches, to parks, to city streets. While manufacturers can't be held responsible for the litter caused by their customers, they can certainly help to create an atmosphere in which their customers want to at the very least clean up their mess and hopefully recycle the trash when possible.
This Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa and New Years Eve, people will be discarding a ton of trash. Most of it will make it into trash receptacles and recycling bins. For the trash that doesn't make it where it needs to go, think up something creative and make a statement. After all why leave trash going to waste?

I am trying to track down connections to my great grandfather Stanley B Rogalski. I cannot locate any records of him earlier than 1909. I believe his birth date is September 15, 1884 and that he came to the United States in 1906. He settled some time between 1906 and 1909 in Lorain, Ohio. His father's first name was possibly Anthony. If anybody has any further information or may have a connection, please contact me.

Chateau de Chillon in Geneva, Switzerland
The Castle has made an appearance in several pieces of literature, notably Lord Byron's poem, The Prisoner of Chillon (1816), Jean-Jacques Rousseau's Julie or the New Heloise, and Henry James' Daisy Miller (1878). Of special note within Lord Byron's poem are the subterranean gothic rooms, in which he placed his hero, Bonivard, in the underground dungeon. .
Today, visitors can see a fully restored Castle, complete with guided tours and excavated antiques, including weapons. There is the aforementioned underground dungeon, four great halls, three courtyards, several unique rooms (including Camera Domini, which boasts a bestiary of 14th century murals), a chapel, and a weapons room.

President Bush is trying to wrap up a new status-of-forces agreement with the Iraqi government before the U.N. resolution under which the U.S. operates its occupation runs out. Team Bush has made some concessions to the Maliki government, but there's one sticking point that threatens an agreement: veto power over military operations.
Without batting an ironic eye, President Bush has vetoed a $289-billion farm bill, claiming the legislation gives too much money to wealthy farmers. The bill includes steps to spur biofuel use and would expand nutrition programs to help poor Americans buy food. The Democratic Congress is expected to override the veto.

The Lebanese government and the Hezbollah opposition group came to a power-sharing agreement Wednesday, potentially marking the end to the country's two-year-old political crisis, which only weeks ago erupted in clashes that left 65 people dead. The move, which some analysts say may benefit Hezbollah more than the Western-backed government, has been hailed by the parties directly involved and others, including the U.S. as well.

The reputation of the U.S. on the world stage might be further colored by President Bush's veto of a bill that would have limited the CIA's (and other intelligence agencies') array of interrogation techniques to those in the Army field manual. In defending Saturday's veto, Bush once again invoked 9/11.
Sen. John McCain has established himself as an outspoken critic of torture, which makes his vote Wednesday against the Feinstein Amendment, which would set limits on the types of interrogation techniques used by American intelligence agencies, all the more puzzling—or, in the case of The Atlantic columnist Andrew Sullivan, heartbreaking.
The House of Representatives and Senate have now both signaled their disapproval of the CIA's use of waterboarding by voting for a ban on any techniques but the 19 officially approved by the Army, but President Bush has already, in turn, signaled his intent to veto any legislation that would rule out harsh interrogation methods.

Bush, the president who lied America into a war that will end up costing trillions of dollars, scolded the Democratic-controlled Congress in his final State of the Union address on Monday for undermining "the people's trust in their government" with too many pet projects. Now that's chutzpah, coming from a man who never met a spending bill he didn't like unless it had to do with stem cells and sick children.
Democrats in Congress are discovering what it's like to live in the worst of all possible worlds. They are condemned for selling out to President Bush, and for failing to make compromises aimed at getting things done.
House Democrats managed to pick up a few more votes for the State Children's Health Insurance Program, but not enough to override the president's veto. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi promised to keep fighting for the overwhelmingly popular program: "In the next two weeks we will send the president another bill that insures coverage for 10 million children."
Oooh. He's clever. And obviously knows exactly what he's doing. This is all a setup, people. Has to be. Yes, I'm talking about George Bush's veto of the State Children's Health Insurance Program. Who but a total stoned horned ogre would do that? Maybe an ogre with something up his sleeve, eh?
Conservatives claim to be in favor of stable families, small businesses, hard work, private schools, investment and homeownership. So why in the world are so many on the right attacking the family of Graeme Frost?
To say that George W. Bush spends money like a drunken sailor is to insult every gin-soaked patron of every dockside dive in every dubious port of call.
President Bush may not have done his party any favor in coming elections by exercising his veto privilege—the fourth time he's done so—to deep-six a bipartisan bill passed by Congress that would have renewed the State Children's Health Insurance Program.
Voters put Democrats in control of both houses of Congress last fall and, for this act of civic determination, they face an infuriating conundrum. Republicans are still running things.
Christo Komarnitski, Bulgaria —
The president's strategy is to fake out the public so that it believes Democrats in Congress can't perform basic governmental tasks. Is this any way to run a country?
The House has passed an expansion of the State Children's Health Insurance Program but failed to win enough votes to override President Bush's promised veto. Still, SCHIP has overwhelming public support, and Democrats welcomed the opportunity to force Bush and his congressional allies to take a stand against poor children.
This week's showdown over children's health insurance is the first skirmish in the new battle for universal health coverage. It is also the first confrontation between the president and Congress fought out almost entirely on terms set by the new Democratic majority.
The deputy White House chief of staff will be leaving the nation's capital, but his shady legacy is likely to remain on the national scene for years.
Defying President Bush's promise to veto the bill, House Democrats approved a broad expansion of the popular SCHIP program that would offer healthcare coverage to millions more poor children. The Senate version appears likely to pass, which would force Bush to make good on his vow and in the process deny poor children fiscally responsible healthcare.
Nancy Pelosi doesn't have the demeanor of someone who leads a Congress suffering from the worst public disapproval in contemporary polling history.
In keeping with Oscar Wilde's adage that one cannot be too careful in the choice of enemies, congressional Democrats have chosen wisely and well.
President Bush has once again exercised his executive veto privilege, nixing a bill that proposed fewer limits on stem cell research. This latest move brings the president's overall veto total to three—two related to stem cell legislation and one shooting down a proposed time line to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq.
According to Gallup, a majority of Americans disapprove of the way all parties involved are handling Iraq, though the Dems got slightly better numbers than Bush or congressional Republicans. Most Americans want some kind of timetable, and a huge majority wants benchmarks for progress.
President Bush says he is now willing to talk about setting up benchmarks to gauge progress in Iraq, perhaps responding to pressure from both sides of the political aisle. However, he also made it clear Thursday that he's going to reject another bill expected to pass soon in the House that would stop funding for the Iraq war this July.
Sen. Russ Feingold, Majority Leader Harry Reid and eight other Senate Democrats have decided to respond to Bush's veto with an amendment that would halt war funding if troops were not safely withdrawn from Iraq by March 31, 2008. Exceptions would include operations against terrorist organizations, training for Iraqi soldiers and protection of U.S. infrastructure and personnel.
The House has passed an expansion of hate crimes legislation to include discrimination against gender, sexual orientation and disability. Though the measure succeeded with bipartisan support and is expected to make it through the Senate, President Bush has vowed to veto the bill, calling it unnecessary.
By Mike Luckovich —
Congress regrouped Wednesday to vote in response to President Bush's veto of the troop pullout bill on Tuesday, but the bill's supporters failed to win the two-thirds of House votes needed to override the veto. Now Democrats, responsible for 220 of the 222 votes to override (203 members voted in opposition), have to take a different tack.
The president says the Democrats are trying to substitute political opinions for military judgment (he should talk). House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says the president wants a blank check for the war and he's not going to get one (at least for now). On Wednesday they meet to debate the issue in person. Here's a preview.
Making good on his threat, President Bush vetoed the bill Tuesday that would have started U.S. troop withdrawal on Oct. 1 and stipulated that an additional $124 billion would be dedicated to the war effort. Now it's up to Congress to challenge his veto or come up with another plan instead.

Four years ago, President Bush delivered his now-infamous "Mission Accomplished" speech aboard the carrier Abraham Lincoln, declaring that military aggression was a successful and appropriate response to the alleged threats posed by Saddam Hussein's Iraqi regime. Judging by the current situation, Bush might do well to pick a new slogan about the war in Iraq.

Four Robberies in Two Weeks
By Harold Hutchison
After banning guns in their stores at the behest of the Bloomberg-subsidized gun-grabbing group Moms Demand Action For Gun Sense, three restaurants owned by Jack in the Box, a fast-food chain growing nationwide, have been hit by armed robbers. The gun-grabbing group urged the company to ban guns after an incident in Texas where rifles were legally carried into one of the company's restaurants.
According to reports by GunsSaveLives.Net, since the company made its decision to declare its restaurants as gun-free zones, there have been three robberies in two weeks. In two of those incidents, one in Houston, the other in Tennessee, people were shot and wounded. In all three robberies, both the restaurant and patrons inside were robbed.
In North Carolina, another restaurant with a "no guns" policy was also robbed. According to a report by the Daily Caller, three men entered the restaurant, which had posted a sign prohibiting guns near its front door, and then forced employees to lie on the floor, assaulting two of them. A number of patrons were also in the restaurant when the robbery took place.
Recently, the restaurant chain Chipotle also issued a statement asking customers not to bring guns. The chain did so after members of an open-carry group entered a restaurant after an event while carrying their rifles. No incident occurred, but Moms Demand Action launched a campaign using the social media site Twitter, and pressured Chipotle into banning guns.

PKP Bugzilla – Bug 7242
PubMed export "date published" element only reflects original value.
Last modified: 2012-03-30 08:13:59 PDT
Regardless of any changes you make to publication dates or the year of the issue itself, the PubMed export only uses the first date entered in that field.
I tried this on a published issue where there was a typo in the XML file used for NativeImportExport. I made the change to the issue in OJS (and cleared my caches), but the PubMed export only shows the original date.
Moving to 2.4 for consideration.

Japan, 2012, 109 Minute Running Time
Additional Countries: France
Genre/Subjects: Drama, RomanceLanguage: Japanese English Sub-Titles
MUST END Thursday, March 28th at the Sie FilmCenter
Digital presentation - Fresh from the triumph of his Tuscany-set Certified Copy, master filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami (Taste of Cherry) travels even further afield from his native Iran for this mysteriously beautiful romantic drama filmed in Japan. Like Someone in Love revolves around the brief encounter between an elderly professor (the wonderful 81-year-old stage actor Tadashi Okuno, here playing his first leading role in a film) and a beautiful sociology student (Rin Takanashi) who moonlights as a high-end escort. Dispatched to the old man by her boss—one of the professor's former students—the young woman finds her latest client less interested in sex than in cooking her soup, talking and playing old Ella Fitzgerald records (like the one that gives the film its title). Eventually, night gives way to day and a tense standoff with the student's way-too-possessive boyfriend (Ryo Kase); but as usual with Kiarostami, nothing is quite as it appears on the surface. Are these characters—who conjure in one another the specters of regret and roads not taken—meeting by chance, or is it fate? Is this love, or merely something like it?
DIRECTOR: Abbas Kairostami

Well, dreading my hair has been the best thing I could've done in terms of my confidence as well as my outlook, patience, etc. It's such a cliche, I know, but it's true, it's helped me a lot. All in things I never expected it to make any difference with. That said, there's one thing it can't really help with, and that's feeling self-conscious over my eczema/sores. I have this huge, deep sore on my forehead at the moment, and I went out today and no-one even looked at me twice. It's a huge…Continue

Most of my dreads are quite stiff, and a couple of them have hard spots. I assumed the worst: WAX. So I combed out one of the thin-ish, only half-way dreaded ones out, expecting to see the horrors of waxy remains...but no. There was literally nothing there. So I dunno why they're stiff or anything. Anyway, I decided to comb a couple more out, mostly the ones in the front/middle, because...the ones in the middle are basically forced into sections that don't feel right, and I get the feeling…Continue

I was just thinking today about the whole meat-eating, vegetarian, vegan thing, and I had this quite interesting thought come to mind. First of all, I'm not bashing anyone's lifestyle choice or beliefs. I think it's worthy of huge respect to make a transition into something different from how you usually live. I have Coeliac disease, and even with my own well-being as motivation, the transition to a gluten-free diet has been very difficult. So...no-one reading this be offended, it's really…Continue
Hey Tara, no problem. I haven't combed since 10 August, and threw my comb away a couple of days later. The bin men are coming by this morning, so it will be gone forever.
I've completely surrendered to the journey, and it feels good and right. It is a spiritual journey for me, not just one of fashion (if it were for fashion, I certainly would not have chosen dreads, but a popular style that ignorant people would not judge or look down on).
At any rate, the locs chose me more than the other way round, and I am at peace with it. In fact, I feel much better than I did after combing out 8 days of progress; that won't happen again, feeling the loss that I felt after I combed out my initial progress.
Thanks for the encouragement :)
Thank you for the Welcome and the advice....My plan was this...I was going to go to a lady who will charge me $60 to start my locs and $25 for maintenance..and I can bring my products or use hers...I told her I will bring my as soon as I found some that wont cause build-up which I did...it was between HealingHerbsbyrene.com and dreadlockshampoo.com.... I was going to go to her once a month for 3 months..then do the maintenance on my own...I wanted the parts...and I feel like I cant do that...on my own....and then I was going to rinse my hair daily with homemade tea...(rosemary/lavender/sage) and wash every 3 days/then go under my hair steamer after the washing ....and moisturize daily two times a day...with water and essential oils.....my hair is very very very dry....and wooly. So I need to moisturize....and use my hair steamer....does this sound a bit too much...??
So happy to see you have joined my 'friends' here on DLS, just saw you on the Knotty chat and couldn't believe you said your red colour was supposed to be temporary, you have done a real good job to get it so bright. I see it is night for you, it is morning for us here in NZ, hope your day tomorrow is a good one.
