Top Insurance Company Delays Participation in Exchange
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- The chairman of Iowa's leading health insurer says the company will not participate in the state's health exchange during 2014.
Wellmark Blue Cross and Blue Shield CEO John Forsyth said Monday that the insurer will enter the online insurance marketplace in 2015. He said the decision to delay was based on concern that implementation would be bumpy in year one.
Sunday was the deadline for insurance carriers to file for inclusion in the Iowa exchange next year. Iowa's insurance commissioner announced Monday that six companies applied. Two will offer statewide plans for individuals, while the other four will offer plans with regional limits or that apply to group insurance.
Under President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, states must have an exchange, with enrollment starting Oct. 1 and coverage Jan. 1.

FDA approves GE brain imaging tool for Alzheimer'sOctober 25, 2013 @ 9:06 am
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Food and Drug Administration on Friday approved a radioactive imaging chemical from General Electric to help screen patients for Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
The drug, Vizamyl, is an injection of radioactive material designed to highlight abnormal brain plaque in medical imaging scans.
Dementia caused by Alzheimer's is associated with buildup of the plaque, known as beta amyloid protein. However, it can also be found in patients who do not have neurological problems.
Vizamyl works by binding to the plaque and creating images that show up on positron emission tomography, or PET, scans of the brain.
A negative scan means there is little plaque and the cause of dementia is probably not Alzheimer's, according to an FDA release. A positive scan means the patient has at least some plaque, but does not mean they definitely have Alzheimer's. The injection is intended as one tool to help physicians identify the cause of patient's cognitive decline.
Doctors currently diagnose Alzheimer's disease by observing patients and administering physical and mental tests. The disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the U.S. and the most common form of dementia, a term for brain disorders that affect memory, judgment and other mental functions.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that Alzheimer's affects 5 million elderly Americans. The agency says that figure may triple in coming years as the baby boom generation ages, unless more effective ways are found to prevent the disease.
Alzheimer's attacks neurons in the brain, leading to problems with memory, thinking and behavior. There is no cure for the disease, and scientists are not even sure what causes it.
Vizamyl is manufactured for General Electric Co.'s GE Healthcare division by Medi-Physics Inc., based in Arlington Heights, Ill. It is the second drug FDA has approved to help screen for Alzheimer's in the last two years. The FDA approved a similar drug called Amyvid from Eli Lilly & Co. in April 2012.

Reader comments are listed below. Comments are currently closed and new comments are no longer being accepted.
Perhaps we're all missing the point here. Consider this statement:
"The winner of the game is the one with all the names".
In the same way Spielberg can't get his films into movie theatres without the cooperation of distributors, product and service providers can't get their stuff to market without the cooperation of Facebook.
Twitter is being funded by Twats who only understand advertising models that are fast becoming irrelevant.
That (mkt-cap/sub-soundbite) was meant to be facetious. But I would be happy to get it patented and charge a royalty if some i-bankers want to use it for valuation purposes.
I'd put the "mkt-cap/subscriber-soundbite" asymptotically close to zero. This sponsored tweet crud is punch the monkey style interruption marketing at it's worst. It's going to drive off users, and it's going to damage the value of brands.
5bn souls who own cellphones already have access to services like texting for communication purposes. The whole notion that someone (other than wannabe celebrities) would want everyone else to know what they are up to seems bizzarre - even celebrities want to have their privacy. Unlike facebook which has built a mass following, twittering (if it doesn't fizzle out like other passing fads) appears more likely to become a niche play. Therein lies the crux of the issue - can social networking sites survive and prosper as niche plays or are they likely to give way to the next fad?
Which brings us to the valuation issue - how do we value a business whose longevity is so uncertain? During dot-coms, i-bankers came out with fancy metrics like mkt-cap/eyeball, so in this age where attention span of an average person is increasingly trending towards sound-bites, perhaps we need a valuation metric based along those lines. How about mkt-cap/subscriber-soundbite?
Not sure of the commercial value but Twitter will eventually become a site for celebrities and their followers, a bit like musicians and myspace.
If one wants to muck around with friends there is nothing better than facebook.
I guess twitter followers will evolve to ignore the promotional tweet faster than expected.
If I am following a Hollywood star, am I also looking for something else?
With the advent of smartphones and internet on mobiles, the investors seem to be in a hurry to get a return on twitter.
Oh well, now we're going to see something else besides tweets from celebrities or newspapers that people usually follow. These days people don't really care anymore of what they see in their timeline; you follow hundreds of people and expect your timeline not to be polluted? As far as Twitter remains free, people will keep tweeting. I'd despise seeing some fast-food joint tweeting about their latest burger next to my tweets, but hey, I don't need to pay attention to it.
@Aly-Khan Satchu - yawn. So much capitalisation to make your point?
What is Twitter's value proposition apart from "from the twitterbots, for the twitterbots". It's fashion so the brand might be worth something but the rest?
Twitter at a valuation of $1b is a steal. Its Market is the 5b Souls who own a CellPhone and it therefore remains in a parabolic Growth Curve. I would have continued to lean on Scaling versus Monetisation. The Brand is also very c21st and surely worth more than a Billion on its own. It has embedded and intertwined itself with the c21st Narrative in an extraordinary and uber commercial way. The Value of being seen as the Tool with which Citizens took on the State in Iran is not to be underestimated. And then the Open Garden Architecture was confirmation of Philosophy in Action.
Tactically, I would have delayed the Entry of Promoted Tweets and leaned on remianing an Infomediary for longer before switching to being an Intermediary.

When is it okay to gently say no?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 1:00pm
As many of you may know, DH and I have a "sex on demand" policy running for the past several months. And until now, this really hasn't been an issue, but here in the past week or so, DH has tried initiating when I'm very intensely absorbed in studying. I'm a university student, and I am at the point where I'm deeply into my major courses. It's tough, and I need to be able to focus on studying.
Is it okay to suggest a "rain-check" until the next morning? Or should I just drop the studying and oblige right then? I asked for a rain check the other day, and though he said he was okay with it, he seemed a bit frustrated. Is there a better way to do this, because I have to make decent grades. He knows how committed I am to getting my degree, and the decision for me to go back was a joint decision.

|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 2:10pm
Firstly, I feel everyone is allowed to say no once in a while. Sex on demand is a wonderful policy, but it cannot be rigid. While HLs hate to hear it - it IS your body and sometimes you will need to prioritize differently.
That being said, I think you should try to offer or initiate sex before you put your head down for studying. How would that work for both of you?
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 2:28pm
I disagree, muff-muff. I do NOT think she should have to offer him sex before she begins to study. I think she should sit him down and have a conversation confirming their mutual dedication to the completion of her education. Then she should explain that study time is "off limits" time. He should have enough dedication to the cause, and enough respect for her to leave her be when she's studying. Then she can simply announce that it is "study time" and be allowed to complete her tasks without guilt or pressure.
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 2:45pm
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 3:43pm
Sorry, over reacted there a bit. I just chafe at the idea that one partner should be responsible for "putting out a fire" that hasn't even started yet. And it chaps my hide to think that he can SEE she's studying, and thinks so little of that, that he would try to have sex then. I mean she's doing something that both of them claimed was IMPORTANT to them. So either he was lying about it being important, or he just doesn't give a damn what she's doing, he wants it, when he wants it. The only other option is he doesn't realize that what he's doing doesn't mesh with what he said or he doesn't realize she's studying. Which is why I advocated that little "sit down and discuss" and then her making an "announcement" when study-time commences. This rules out any sort of "I didn't realize" on his part.
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 3:46pm
Last night I visited my gf in her dorm and she had already warned me that she was super busy with school and most likely the only thing we could enjoy together was sleeping in the same bed with hopes of decent sex in the morning. I thought I would be fine with that but she was stretching her hips by
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 3:46pm
This is the kind of situation where you either build love or you tear it down.
|Fri, 09-17-2010 - 4:01pm
First, I am not allowed by DH to initiate sex unless I "want" sex and as a result will be enthusiastic in my participation. So, the idea of initiating a quickie before I begin to study is not an option, as I generally only want sex once a week or so and that's typically very late at night.
I was completely fine with sex first thing in the morning, and that in no way conflicted with my school schedule, the kids' schedules, or DH's work schedule. I have blocked out a couple of hours per day, both before he comes home from work and after dinner and the kids have gone to bed to study. What I am loathe to do is to start accepting initiation on his part while I'm attempting to study, and either it causes me to be up later studying or to begin to resent the sex on demand policy itself (and DH by default).
I just want to say, "I give you whatever you want, whenever you want 99% of the time, why can't I have this time to study? There are plenty of other times for us to have sex."

Like a kid againPosted Tuesday, October 23, 2012, at 10:37 AM
However, my dad had a work conference in Orlando and my parents sprung the news on me that I had been waiting for, I was going back to Disney World.
I don't know what it is about Disney World, it is always a fun time. I have been begging my parents to take me back to Disney World for years. I even asked them to take me to Disney World as my graduation present from college.
To me, Disney is a place where you can feel like a kid again. It doesn't matter how old you may be, Disney is like being in a different world.
As a young kid, I remember going to Disney World quite often. It was always a stressful time as my mother planned our day of going on every single ride and attraction at the park. We never skipped a single thing. This time however, I was in charge.
According to my parents, this vacation was about me. I called the shots and I decided what rides we were going to ride and not ride.
Most of our time, the three days we spent at the parks, was spent at MGM or what is now called Hollywood Studios. There was this fantastic Toy Story ride, which my parents and I rode about eight times in a row.
Being able to spend time with my family was the best thing I could have ever asked for. The vacation had come at the right time. Sometimes you just need that time set aside to realize what is really important, family.
I was able to ride all my favorite childhood rides, including a favorite of my dad and I, Dumbo. It's not often that I am able to spend a week with my parents and I loved every minute of it.
Was it more fun when I was a kid? Yes, but it was nice to let loose and not have to worry about anything except trying to track down Mickey Mouse.

Expert: New Orleans Undervalues Historic Properties
By Eileen Fleming
New Orleans, La. – Donovan Rypkema says a general rule for a community planning to preserve its historic architecture is to count the years back to its oldest public building. In New Orleans, it would be the late 1700s, so he said planners should be looking to what the city will look like 200 years from now.
He says the city has a unique blend of historic homes.
Rypkema said at a Preservation Resource Center event this week that city leaders must be convinced that preserving historic buildings isn't just for beauty; it's good business.

Do "Tons of Studies" Support Tiger Mom?
Tiger Mom claims that her approach is how most Asian mothers parent. She goes on to say that children brought up using her approach will achieve more than others. Many parents have wondered if she's right.
Research exists on how different parenting styles affect kids. In parenting research, her style would be referred to as authoritarian: demanding of, controlling of, and unresponsive to children. In contrast, authoritative parenting sets standards but promotes independence in children. Permissive parenting gives lots of praise, but without making demands or setting limits.
We parents can look at research to judge the merits of Tiger Mom's approach. But, is there evidence, other than Tiger Mom's personal experience, that supports her assertion? Are Asian parents more authoritarian, and does authoritarian parenting produce better kids?
Are Asian Families Coercive and Americans Permissive? NO!
In Tiger Mom's Wall Street Journal article, she claims there are "tons of studies" showing that "Westerners" practice leniency more than Asians when parenting. But, in truth, studies of parenting do not support her claim. I've summarized two examples of such research.

Durham subcontractors eyed on immigrants' back pay issue
DURHAM — Capstone Development Corp. said it is investigating reports that at least eight workers on a major residential construction project in town are owed tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid wages and overtime.
Capstone and its subsidiary, Cottage Builders, are the lead contractors on the $30 million to $40 million Cottages of Durham project on Technology Drive, which has been under construction since June.
Maggie Fogarty of the American Friends Service Committee said two weeks ago the group was contacted by eight workers on the project who say they worked for months without being paid. She said the employees worked long hours and overtime, including Christmas Day.
Fogarty said when the employees complained about not being paid, they were fired and lost their housing, which came with the job.
She said the employees are immigrants, but was not sure if they are in the country legally. She said that does not matter, as labor law applies to them whether they are documented or not.
On Wednesday, a group of about 70 pastors and faith community members, labor supporters, students and others gathered at Durham Community Church and marched to the Cottages downtown office to express outrage.
"Our demand today is that Cottage Builders and Keystone promptly pay these workers what they are owed in wages and overtime," Fogarty said.
They also handed a letter to John Acken, senior vice president of Capstone, demanding that the workers be paid immediately.
Acken accepted the letter and briefly addressed the crowd, stating that Capstone shares the protesters concerns and is investigating the allegations.
The attorney representing the workers, Lawrence Vogelman of the Manchester firm Nixon, Vogelman, Barry, Slawsky & Simoneau, issued a statement on Wednesday stating that they are exploring all legal and administrative avenues open to them, both state and federal.
"That being said, we are willing to sit down with Capstone/Cottages and their lawyers and reach a resolution compensating the workers for the work they have done and the damages they have suffered," Vogelman said.
John Vawter, president of Cottage Builders, spoke with the New Hampshire Union Leader from Alabama following the protest and said he received additional information on Wednesday afternoon that got the investigation started. Prior to that, he said the firm had received one letter last week regarding the allegations.
He said 12 main subcontractors are working on the Durham site and most of them are based in New England. He said if any of them is found to have not paid workers, it will be required to do so.
"If there are workers who performed work and it was satisfactory and were simply not paid, then we will fully expect our subcontractors to pay their workers," Vawter said.
He said he hopes the situation will have a resolution by Monday, at the latest.
He said the facts of the case will determine whether there will be penalties against any subcontractor who has not paid workers.
Cottages of Durham is being billed as luxury single units providing "resort living." The development will be comprised of 141 units with 619 beds, a clubhouse and many specialty amenities such as a pool, tanning service and fitness center. Vawter said construction is scheduled for completion by July 31.
Fogarty said it is the responsibility of Capstone as the overall developer to make sure labor laws are followed and workers are treated fairly.
Town Administrator Todd Selig said Durham has actively enforced state and local regulations at the construction site, but has no control over internal operations or labor practices.
"At the same time, Durham does not and cannot condone unfair, unethical, unjust or illegal workplace practices," Selig said. "Because Capstone project is within our community, we take any concerns expressed very seriously."

Brock Osweiler
57. Aldon Smith, OLB, San Francisco 49ers (64th)
Some will think Smith should be higher based on his sack numbers alone. However, for that to be the case there needed to be some quicker developing pressure. That doesn't mean Smith didn't have a great year, just that there's room for him to do more. Coped reasonably well with an expanded role.
Best Performance: Week 11 versus Chicago, +9.8
Key Stat: His 70 quarterback disruptions were the most of any 3-4 outside linebacker.
47. Ryan Clady, LT, Denver Broncos (Unranked)
After a year spent protecting the somewhat unpredictable Tim Tebow, life got a lot easier for Ryan Clady when Peyton Manning rolled into town. Far from dominant in the run game, Clady makes his name as a pass protector and that's exactly why the Broncos were never going to let him hit the open market in free agency.
Best Performance: Week 3 versus Houston, +5.8
Key Stat: Allowed just 22 quarterback disruptions on 609 pass blocking snaps.
45. Demaryius Thomas, WR, Denver Broncos (Unranked)
Outside a couple of fumbles when Thomas wasn't touched, it was a big year for the former first-round pick who showed what he could do with a viable quarterback throwing him the ball. Making some spectacular catches as he picked up 1,430 yards and 10 touchdowns, Thomas emerged as one of the most dynamic receivers in the league.
Best Performance: Week 8 versus New Orleans, +7.1
Key Stat: Picked up 2.51 yards per route run, seventh-highest in the league.

Citrix Eyes Growth Opportunity For Virtualizing 3D CAD Apps
Citrix today announced new customer deployments of the market-leading Citrix XenDesktop® with HDX 3D Pro to deliver high-end 3D apps to designers, engineers and workers all along the product design chain. Citrix global customers, Knightec AB and Wiha Werkzeuge GmBH are using XenDesktop to securely, centrally-deliver CAD applications to dispersed design teams, with the stunning visual performance required for this type of intensive design and engineering work. Since the introduction of HDX 3D Pro graphics app acceleration technologies, Citrix has seen rapid customer adoption led by organizations across North America, Europe and Japan in heavy manufacturing, global engineering and energy sectors who have deployed XenDesktop to host and securely-deliver design and engineering applications from the datacenter.
"Supporting the CAD application market with our desktop and app virtualization solutions represents a significant growth opportunity for Citrix. Today, there are nearly 15 million CAD users 1 that design products and another 100 million users require access to design data to view and edit these designs, representing a significant new target user base for Citrix," said Calvin Hsu, vice president of product marketing, Desktop and Apps at Citrix.
In today's global business environment, design and manufacturing organizations require the ability to collaborate and manage design lifecycles effectively with offshore, mobile and remote employees across the globe. At the same time, they have to maintain tight security and control over valuable intellectual property as the workforce becomes more mobile and distributed. XenDesktop with HDX 3D Pro is the only solution that can support high-end designers, engineers and broad range of employees working with 3D data, while delivering real-time, remote collaboration. No other solution can offer the same performance, scale and graphics compatibility. Competing solutions are architected such that they cannot keep up with the latest versions of OpenGL, OpenCL, CUDA and DirectX, which limits customers to certain applications and legacy products. In addition, these solutions only offer one method of GPU sharing, which does not leverage the full performance of GPU virtualization designed by graphics market leader, NVIDIA. Professional graphics applications such as CAD, visualization and analysis rely on the parallel processing power of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) to visually render and manipulate large data models with pixel perfect quality.

Blackstone Group LP (BX:US), Europe's biggest buyer of real estate in the past year, agreed to sell three central London student residences to Round Hill Capital LLC for about 415 million pounds ($670 million), according to four people with knowledge of the transaction.
Round Hill, run by former Morgan Stanley Real Estate Funds executive Michael Bickford, acquired the three Nido-branded properties owned by funds managed by Blackstone, the people said. They declined to be identified because the transaction won't be completed until later this month.
Blackstone declined to comment in an e-mailed statement, while no one from Round Hill Capital was immediately available to return two calls seeking comment.
The Nido sale is the largest in the niche U.K. student accommodation market in at least a year and follows 1 billion pounds of transactions last year, according to estimates by Jones Lang LaSalle Inc.
A larger deal may be pending. Barclays Infrastructure Managers is in exclusive talks to sell an 80 percent stake in University Partnerships Programme to PGGM, the second-largest Dutch pension fund manager. The sale may fetch about 850 million pounds, according to a report by researcher Real Capital Analytics Inc.
The three Nido residences are at King's Cross, Notting Hill and Spitalfields and have a combined 2,500 student rooms, cafes, fitness centers and laundries, according to the website.
Nido's Barcelona development and other projects aren't included in the sale.

TWIST & HOWL: Giant Balloon Spider At Great Wolf Lodge Breaks Guinness World Record In Time For Halloween
GRAND MOUND, Wash., Oct. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- If the itsy bitsy spider came down a waterspout, it's only fitting that the largest balloon spider the world has ever seen comes from North America's largest family of indoor waterparks, Great Wolf Lodge®.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111013/CG86345)

On Saturday, October 1, world-renowned balloon twisting artist, Adam Lee, began his six-day mission of weaving a web of almost 3,000 balloons into a giant spider, breaking the current Guinness World Record for "Largest Balloon Sculpture." This frightening feat measures 45 feet 2 inches wide by 22 feet 2 inches long, breaking the current record of 16 feet long by 12 feet wide. Lee received official word today from Guinness World Record headquarters in London, UK, that his attempt was successful."After working 10 hour days for six days straight, I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome," said Lee. "My thanks to Great Wolf Lodge for partnering with me to accomplish my goal of breaking the Guinness World Record. Of course this can only be followed by a challenge to all the other Great Wolf Lodge locations next year to break my record with even larger balloon sculptures." Lee is also quick to offer-up some math to help guests comprehend just how many balloons he used. "If I would have laid the inflated balloons end-to-end, they would have stretched for almost two-and-a-half miles!" This creepy crawler will suspend from the rafters of the three-story lobby at Great Wolf Lodge – Grand Mound alongside the artist's other balloon creations for the duration of the resort's seasonal " Howl-o-Ween" event, running from October 7 through October 31. Not to be outdone, all 10 of the other Great Wolf Lodge locations nationwide will feature their own inflatable arachnids. "Who knew that a young man with arachnophobia could achieve such an amazing accomplishment," said Patrick Alvarez, General Manager at Great Wolf Lodge – Grand Mound. "We're so proud to share this honor with Adam, and to provide our guests with the shock and delight that only all eight legs of the world's largest balloon sculpture could provide this Halloween season." Other Howl-o-Ween activities taking place throughout the month at all 11 Great Wolf Lodge properties include a daily Trick-or-Treat Trail, Spooktacular Story Time, Costume Parade, Monster Bash Dance Party, Pumpkin Painting and Witchy Crafts.

The real inventor of basketball
By RICHARD C. GARVEY
This is a column about the inventor of basketball.
It is not about Professor James Naismith whose name is memorialized on the Basketball Hall of Fame here.
Indeed, the name of the real inventor of basketball appears only as a footnote at the hall. His first name is not recorded and, according to the Alden Street staff, it is "lost to history."
Give Stebbins Credit
This column is not another effort to take credit away from Naismith, but is an effort to give credit to the real inventor of basketball, James W. Stebbins.
Stebbins is identified in the footnotes as the janitor who was asked by Naismith to find him two boxes. The good professor was specific. He wanted them to be square and 18 inches on each side.
Stebbins couldn't find any boxes, but did find two peach baskets which he thought might

Hannspree, best known for some pretty ridiculous products, has just announced its vanilla-as-it-gets HANNSnote netbook. The whole affair looks pretty middle of the road, with a 10-inch 1024 x 600 resolution LCD, Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM, Intel GMA950 graphics card, and a 160GB hard drive. It boasts WiFi, Ethernet and Bluetooth, has three USB 2.0 ports, and a 1.3 megapixel webcam. It will come in white and black when it is released in late May, in Spain, for a price somewhere between €299 and €399 ($400-$530). No word on availability outside of Spain as of yet -- there's one more shot after the break.

In 1971, Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black set forth his views on the press and its ability to publish classified information whether the government likes it or not. He did so during debate about whether the New York Times and Washington Post could be stopped from publishing leaked, classified Vietnam War documents. His full opinion in New York Times v. United States is online, and here are his words slightly condensed, with my emphasis added throughout.
Black's words are important to consider in the debate over who ought to have the final say on whether secret information is revealed, which I wrote about elsewhere here today. Black was right.
* * *
I adhere to the view that the Government's case against the Washington Post should have been dismissed, and that the injunction against the New York Times should have been vacated without oral argument when the cases were first presented to this Court .... Every moment's continuance of the injunctions against these newspapers amounts to a flagrant, indefensible, and continuing violation of the First Amendment ... It is unfortunate that some of my Brethren are apparently willing to hold that the publication of news may sometimes be enjoined. Such a holding would make a shambles of the First Amendment.
Our Government was launched in 1789 with the adoption of the Constitution. The Bill of Rights, including the First Amendment, followed in 1791. Now, for the first time in the 182 years since the founding of the Republic, the federal courts are asked to hold that the First Amendment does not mean what it says, but rather means that the Government can halt the publication of current news of vital importance to the people of this country.
In seeking injunctions against these newspapers, and in its presentation to the Court, the Executive Branch seems to have forgotten the essential purpose and history of the First Amendment. When the Constitution was adopted, many people strongly opposed it because the document contained no Bill of Rights to safeguard certain basic freedoms. They especially feared that the new powers granted to a central government might be interpreted to permit the government to curtail freedom of religion, press, assembly, and speech. In response to an overwhelming public clamor, James Madison offered a series of amendments to satisfy citizens that these great liberties would remain safe and beyond the power of government to abridge. Madison proposed what later became the First Amendment in three parts, two of which are set out below, and one of which proclaimed:
The people shall not be deprived or abridged of their right to speak, to write, or to publish their sentiments, and the freedom of the press, as one of the great bulwarks of liberty, shall be inviolable.
The amendments were offered to curtail and restrict the general powers granted to the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial Branches two years before in the original Constitution. The Bill of Rights changed the original Constitution into a new charter under which no branch of government could abridge the people's freedoms of press, speech, religion, and assembly.
Yet the Solicitor General argues and some members of the Court appear to agree that the general powers of the Government adopted in the original Constitution should be interpreted to limit and restrict the specific and emphatic guarantees of the Bill of Rights adopted later. I can imagine no greater perversion of history. Madison and the other Framers of the First Amendment, able men that they were, wrote in language they earnestly believed could never be misunderstood: "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom ... of the press ...." Both the history and language of the First Amendment support the view that the press must be left free to publish news, whatever the source, without censorship, injunctions, or prior restraints.
In the First Amendment, the Founding Fathers gave the free press the protection it must have to fulfill its essential role in our democracy. The press was to serve the governed, not the governors. The Government's power to censor the press was abolished so that the press would remain forever free to censure the Government. The press was protected so that it could bare the secrets of government and inform the people. Only a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government. And paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shell. In my view, far from deserving condemnation for their courageous reporting, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and other newspapers should be commended for serving the purpose that the Founding Fathers saw so clearly. In revealing the workings of government that led to the Vietnam war, the newspapers nobly did precisely that which the Founders hoped and trusted they would do.
The Government's case here is based on premises entirely different from those that guided the Framers of the First Amendment. The Solicitor General has carefully and emphatically stated:

Let's share some of the things we've bought or received as gifts that are just not worth the money.
The Fisher Price Kid Tough Digital Camera was a total waste of money.
|Sat, 11-05-2011 - 6:29pm
Hot Wheels play sets... they are never as cool as the commercial and until they are big enough the kids bug you over and over because they fall apart.
|Mon, 11-07-2011 - 2:14pm
I agree completely about the Hot Wheels sets! Ian wanted a specific set last year, so MIL bought it for him. While it's fun, it's a huge PITB to set up and it takes up a ton of space. -And, yes, they fall apart while the kids are playing, which means that I have to keep reassembling it.
|Wed, 11-09-2011 - 10:07am
A friend told me that the popular Elefun game is junk. I guess it doesn't work like it's supposed to, and it's frustrating for the kids and adults. She said that the fan isn't strong enough to blow the butterflies like it's supposed to. That's too bad because I thought this game looked like a good one. I wonder if maybe hers was just a dud. Has anyone here played this game before?
|Wed, 11-09-2011 - 1:07pm
We had one 3-4 years ago and it wasn't all that fun. The butterflies would get stuck in the tube thing and we lost so many of them. So yeah, not worth it.
|Tue, 11-29-2011 - 1:50pm
Dollar store puzzles. We always get some puzzles, and the ones from the dollar store just fall apart before we even get them put together for the first time. It frustrates the kids when the pieces are warped, flimsy, or just break.
|Thu, 12-01-2011 - 4:10am
But i don't think kids ever accept old things!
I've try to give my old Ipod last year to my cousin as an Xmas gift, for which he was demanding from longer. But when i give him, his expression was not seems so cool to me.
That's why now i don't give any worthy stuffs to kids anymore on Christmas!
But now on this christmas! I've planned to give all my relative kids! some good clothing dress. I hope they all like kinda present
|Thu, 12-01-2011 - 10:01am
I agree. Toys from the dollar store are mostly a bust. They usually come from great aunts and uncles who don't know any better.
|Thu, 12-01-2011 - 11:15am
Wow that was pretty rude of him. Our kids get used stuff for Christmas, we got Nathan an iPod off eBay, and an air hockey table, play kitchen and loft bed off craigslist this year. I think it more how they are brought up, they wouldn't get nearly as much stuff if we had to get it all new... I'm sorry you had a bad experience with what was a very generous gift.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — John Henson had a great seat on the North Carolina sideline to watch his teammates advance in the NCAA tournament. The question is how long the Tar Heels will have to win without him, not to mention if his sore left wrist will heal enough to make him a factor in March at all.
Tyler Zeller had 17 points and 15 rebounds to help North Carolina beat Vermont 77-58 on Friday in its NCAA tournament opener despite playing without its shot-blocking and rebound-snatching starter.
