President Barack Obama says he has not succeeded in bringing the country together, acknowledging an atmosphere of divisiveness that has washed away the lofty national feeling surrounding his inauguration a year ago.
"That's what's been lost this year … that whole sense of changing how Washington works," Obama said in an interview with People magazine.
The president said his second-year agenda will be refocused on uniting the country around common values, "whether we're Democrats or Republicans."
"We all want work that's satisfying, pays the bills and gives children a better future and security," Obama said in the interview, which the magazine conducted with the president and his wife, Michelle Obama, at the White House last Friday.
The president's comments came as Republican leaders rallied against the core items of his agenda, from his economic stimulus plan to health care. The mood of the country has remained in a sustained slump, too, as double-digit unemployment followed a campaign built upon "hope" and "change."
Obama said people have "every right to feel deflated, because the economy was far worse than any of us expected." But he insisted that his government's economic steps in 2009 are paying off and that people should have confidence in this new year.
On other topics:
_The president said Tiger Woods, the champion golfer who has fallen into disgrace amid reports of extramarital affairs, can be "rehabilitated," as his interviewer put it. "Absolutely," Obama said. "I don't want to comment on his personal relationship with his wife and family, but I'm a strong believer that anybody can look within themselves, find their flaws and fix them."
_The first lady said one of the most memorable moments of the year came when their daughters, Sasha and Malia, met the pope at the Vatican. "It was interesting," she said, "the picture of the pope and Malia and Sasha standing there exchanging conversation: 'How's school?' 'It's fine.'
_The president opted not to lower the grade he had given himself for his own performance in 2009 — a B-plus — in light of the intelligence and security failures that allowed a suspected terrorist to board a Detroit-bound plane with explosives in an effort to blow it up. "When you look at what we've done this year on national security, we performed at a very high level in as difficult an environment as you can imagine," he said.
_The president said he misses daily, spontaneous interactions while living in a bubble. He said the job is lonely in another way — the gravity of sending troops off to war or responding to an attempted terrorist attack. "That side of the loneliness of the job is what I signed up for and I actually think I'm pretty good at," he said.
The new issue of People will be on newsstands Friday.
Jimmy Carter should really love Obama.
Thanks to "O",
Carter is no longer our nations worst president!
The country can no longer be brought together politically. The political parties are now more important than the common good of the country. Winning elections is now more important than governing. If one sides has to cause the country to crash and burn so it can win an election, then so be it.
What's stunning about his admittance is that it means he simply doesn't have a clue or possibly the interest as to how to control his party and lead the Congressional elephant by the trunk rather than pushing it from the rear.
It's called sincere, genuine, thoughtful, honest guidance with the use of his veto pen. The good of the American people should be forefront in his mind, but it is not. He talks the talk, but doesn't walk the walk…!
At this point the healthcare bill is an absolute shambles relative ot the needs of the American people, while being totally corporatist friendly.
He and his cabal of insiders can't be oblivious to this fact, but they keep pushing this evil, behemoth legislation through, consequences be damned. If he were an honest, citizen friendly man, he's say at this point; enough is enough and I'm going to veto this piece of trash when it hits my desk…period! Then, informed citizens would have some respect for the man.
We continue in Iraq and Afghanistan where our goals will never be accomplished, instead our leadership redoubles their efforts in the face of certain failure which is the definition of fanaticism.
Between our rogue, out of control defense establishment and the Fed~Treasury axis of evil pitching billions down banking and insurance industry ratholes with zero results, excluding the pumping of stocks up for another imminent crash, you'd think our leader is "spring-loaded" in the stupid position.
He's evidently not the scholar they claim him to be because he's continuing to head the USS America on to the rocks of destruction at flank speed.
This President is more than a failure; he's an unfolding disaster before our very eyes. He's also surrounded himself with failures from past administrations back to the Carter era. It's the same good ol' boy network guiding our nation as if our tax debt dollars and the government printing press is their private piggy bank and counterfeiting op. : |
Carl Nemo **==
Anybody remember the name "Jimmy Carter"? He had all of the best intentions in the world…but just couldn't take command of his own party, much less the other.
Thus he eventually lost the confidence of the people…and well, it was pretty much over for him.
I bet Mr. Obama would learn a bit if he studied that period of history.
Yes, the health insurance mandate will surely bring the country together once all the libtards realize they're going to jail because they can't afford to buy health insurance.
Ummm…You hired the very same people that gave us this ecoomy. If they weren't smart enough to foresee the fruits of their labor, what the hell makes you think they can lead us out of it?
I, for one, knew what was coming – and I'm no body.
"If they weren't smart enough to foresee the fruits of their labor…"…extract from post
Griff, they knew exactly what the result would be. We're dealing with arch banking and investment criminals here that have infested our government at the highest levels.
They are all part of an evil clique now seemingly a plague in high places. Consistently they either deny their ability to have foreseen the end result of their bad decisions or as in the most recent testimony they disengenuously say they are sorry while they still plan on handing out obscene bonuses while our complicit Congressional hearings committees accept shallow apologies and allow them to ripoff the American taxpayer and skate free.
The good ship USS America has been commandeered by corporate pirates that make the Somali's of similar persuasion seem like "good guys".

I know that. You know that. Most others still think it's merely incompetence.
Yep, Americans are known for their propensity to forgive whatever the reason along with their world class nation destroying gullibility and general stupidity… / : |

"…but I'm a strong believer that anybody can look within themselves, find their flaws and fix them."
Yes indeed MR PRESIDENT !!!
Maybe it's time Mr President stopped playing games, with himself and his nation:
In another incarnation I was an albatross – this was my story:
or THE GAME OF YOUR LIFE
"What are fears but voices airy?
Whispering harm where harm is not.
And deluding the unwary
Till the fatal bolt is shot!"
Let's play a game:
Pop down to your nearest sports store; buy a bow and one arrow (on credit) and get back home ASAP.
Give the bow and arrow to you partner, or friend, anyone will do and then go out into the back yard.
Get your friend to load the arrow into the bow then draw the stringy thing back as far as possible. Then get your friend to aim the arrow directly at your beating heart. Tell your friend to let go of the stringy bit.
Come back and tell me how you feel.
The albatross, in human mythology, incites mental imagery of a burden hanging around one's neck. People make jokes about us and it hurts. It's a bum rap really and that Coleridge guy has a lot to answer for. Why not a sea gull or penguin? But an albatross it was, in fact it was me and it's time we sorted some stuff out.
Firstly, did you play my little game? Why not?
At least I let you in on my game; you knew what the consequences would be. Don't you think it's sad that you guys didn't give me the same courtesy? Nope you simply crucified me, and it hurt. And then you made a joke of it, and that hurt too.
Right up to the moment of my demise I trusted you. If you remember we got off to a flying start. I was wandering around the mall just like any other blonde and happened upon your good selves sailing in your ship.
It was all good for a while. I did tricks for you and you feed me all sorts of exotic food. It was fun. And I never missed "vespers nine" by moonlight. It was ever so romantic. Golden times they were. I truly believed our relationship was based on honesty and trust; the (necessary) seed crystal of intimacy and love. I felt secure.
And then it all went pear shaped, you started to play a very silly and dangerous game – with yourselves. Sadly, for me, you didn't realise you were playing the game and for no good reason you chose me as the perpetrator of your own stupidity. You allowed your fears and superstitions to justify the cold blooded murder of an innocent life – me.
And to make things worse I have become an insidious archetype of ridicule. Is that how human beings play their game? Draw you into their confidence then take you for all you're worth and more?
They say life is a game and I suppose it would be hard to disagree. I suspect the challenge is being aware if one is participating in a game; and knowing the players (your competitors) and rules – for games usually have winners and losers.
Unfortunately, those who prefer not to play games will be disappointed, for in the real world individuals are being constantly drawn into the games of others; the political game, the religious game, the games our corporations play and the games we play with each other.
Life is a competition and sadly the rules are nebulous and favour the well informed, cunning, connected, deceitful, manipulative, and in many cases the mean and brutal. These are the types who (in general) rise to the top; these are the ones many choose to follow. Mostly they end up disappointed then have to cop it on the chin.
The game of life is unavoidable but we can mitigate the (destructive) games we play in our personal lives – our direct relationships. We have a choice: to play or not to play. Once again one must know if one is playing a game, and if so what is motivating the game, otherwise the consequences are quite often unfortunate.
The self personality quite often acts as a very selective filter, a personal censure, distorts stuff and creates unnecessary conflict; many of us end up playing games with ourselves and don't even know it. We all know and understand this on an intellectual level but comprehending it from a personal psychological perspective quite often escapes us – to the detriment of our personal lives and relationships.
We seem to find it easy to identify short comings in others without even considering we could share same. We think we know how to cure others but find no reason to look at and cure ourselves.
The mitigation of games reduces competition and fosters co-operation. It also reduces conflict, creates stillness and most of all fosters trust. Who do you trust?
They say competition is an excellent catalyst for progress; it would be hard to disagree for the greatest competition of all – war – has proven to be an excellent accelerator for the sophistication of the art of destruction including socially advantageous stuff as well – but at what cost?
Some games are not worth playing.
It would be very naïve to think we could eliminate games all together, for our leaders will never allow that, but we can choose not to play some of the unnecessary games, ones that create conflict:
The racist game; the envy game; the get rich at all cost game; the winner take all game; the control game – you know the ones.
They say we are all connected by six degrees, I would argue that in many ways 99% of humanity is connected by nil degrees; it's just that we are so distracted by the game of life we simply miss the obvious.
On that note it's now time to withdraw from this little game and return into the ether; sometimes games just go round and round. As such I shall bid you farewell and wish you and your loved ones all the joy in all the universes.
With infinite fondness to all the good folk of America

A nicely crafted piece of "thoughtsmanship" from our site friend down under…! : )
I'm both stunned and impressed that we have someone as yourself, a site member from so far away.
Are you a native Aussie or an expatriate American?
This writing caused an old man's tear to run down his cheek. : |
Carl Nemo **==
p.s. Your writing is possibly too complex for most folks to both understand and enjoy. Thanks just the same from me ! : )
Thanks Carl.
I'm an Aussie national but have lived on four of our five continents over the past six decades. I've seen and experienced all sorts of stuff, especially in Africa – but that's another story.
I have family in Alaska and my great uncle lived in Arizona. He was an illegal immigrant; jumped ship in the early 20's and died a muti-millionare about 25 years ago.
My first wife was an entertainer and spent six months in Vietnam entertaining American troops where she made lots of Yanky friends.
I'm also probably what some people call a Civil War buff and as a kid enjoyed reading about it. I loved reading the letters of Lawrence Chamberlain; a teacher or rethoric who was not only an articulate soul but a just and brave one – at least in my opinion. His courage at Little Round Top was iconic.
On a number of occassions I lived adjacent to an American military base and got to know a lot of the grunts, some officers and a navy intelligence (sic) guy – he was a nice guy but not too bright, as we would say in Oz; probably because he spent most of his time smoking hash and snorting amphetamine sulphate (stuff that was freely available to all and sundry – cough sniff). I remember back in 76 the lads patriotically passed around bicentenial LSD, blotting paper in the form of an American flag.
Even as a young man it became obvious that the American military was an industry within an industry and many in the service were making money (at the taxpayers expense) in all sorts of ways. I would appear nothing has changed much in that respect – probably got worse.
Nevertheless I got to know many young Americans and enjoyed many good times with them (and their wives) from Dallas, El Paso, Van Nuys, New York, Boston and many other places. Strangley, or not so strangley the Yank who I got on best with, and appeared the most aware of life's realities eventually deserted his post. I ran into him in London while he was running – I hope things turned out for the best in his regard, he was a good bloke and under no illusions, so to speak.
In short I have a genuine affection for Yanks but not the American government (oligarchy), for reasons we both obviously share.
I currently live in Sydney with my second wife. She is Chinese and also a member of the Aisin Gioro clan, the rulers of the Qing dynasty – the last emperor of China, Pu Yi was her second cousin. Her family story is a most interesting one, especially her Dad's who was born a prince, with all the privileges and wealth, then betrayed his class by supporting Mao Zedong. for the greater good, the rest of the story is not mine to tell but would make a bloody good movie or novel.
Australia and America have much in common; both nations became wealthy by stealing the property (and resourses) of the natives (aborigines) and in the process raped, murdered and exploited them. In our case we justified our theft by declaring that Australia was Terra Nullius – land belonging to no one. And we called them uncivilized as we decapitated them, stored their heads in jars of formaldehyde and sent them back to the fucking mother land as trophies.
To make things worse our national day is on January 26; the day the First Fleet arrived and invaded the land of our native brothers and sisters. How insentitive or arrogant is that? We white people celebrate our theft, and black people can take it or leave it. I don't celebrate anymore.
Anyway Carl mate, that should give you a little insight into who you are communicating with and a little background about Oz; although I'm sure that many Yanks couldn't even find it on the map.
Maybe Ambrose Bierce was correct: "War is God's way of teaching Americans geography."
PS. Carl, if you ever feel like visiting Oz then give us a shout – you would be a most welcome guest at my humble abode.
With infinite fondness
Thanks Senegoid for sharing your life and background with not only myself but our fellow site members. I have friends of mine who read CHB, but never post, compliment your writings too.
Also thanks for the invitation in the event I should visit Australia. : )

PuraMed BioScience Inc. is hatching plans for the national product launch of LipiGesic M, its clinically tested migraine headache treatment.
Supplier News Breaks Archives
SCHOFIELD, Wis. – PuraMed BioScience Inc. is hatching plans for the national product launch of LipiGesic M, its clinically tested migraine headache treatment.
The company said Wednesday that this year three top headache researchers in the United States conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of LipiGesic M — published in the medical journal Headache this summer — demonstrating that the product was safe, highly effective and recommended to medical professional as a first-line treatment for migraines.
"Once the study was published, we moved forward by using the published clinical data to foster our partnerships with the two largest retail chain drug stores in the USA, Walgreens and CVS," stated PuraMed president and chief executive officer Russ Mitchell. "We expect to continue to build upon these relationships and anticipate finalizing sales purchase order agreements with more chain drug and mass market outlets to provide easy product access to all migraine sufferers.
"Our next step is to educate the medical community and healthcare professionals so they become greater aware of LipiGesic M," Mitchell added.
The company said it has begun to reserve attendance to 2012 medical conferences and continued medical education (CME) events for all health care professionals with migraine patients in their practices, including neurologists, general practitioners, pharmacists, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses and chiropractors.
PuraMed also has developed a "Doctor Detailing Kit" that is now being sent directly to health professionals nationwide that include samples, study data and use indications to inform doctors who are unable to attend the various conferences throughout the year.
Plans call for consumer advertising to include both testimonial and information-based newspaper, magazine, radio and cable television ads, all of which will be coordinated with PuraMed's retail partners and include special coupons and promotions to help drive customers to the stores, according to the company.
PuraMed added that it will continue to explore various options to enhance its presence on the Internet and social media sites in 2012. The company recently launched its updated LipiGesic M website located at www.lipigesic.com, as well as its corporate website at www.puramedbioscience.com, and has established its social networking sites in Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus.

Benefits and Importance of Space Exploration
For decades mankind has been trying to push the limits of technology as it embraces new opportunities of better understanding the universe through the resources of space exploration. While there is often a debate concerning the results which are discovered versus the amount of money required to run such programs, the reality is these programs are invaluable. The following identifies four such points displaying the vital importance of space exploration.
The Drive to Understand Mankind's Place in the Universe
While many individuals live their daily life simply trying to get through the day, others have incredible fantasies regarding what could be found in the universe. When put into perspective mankind is a single species on a single planet in a vast collection of galaxies. Questions such as "what is beyond our planet" and "is there life out there" have inspired some of the greatest ideas ever.
The human race is inquisitive by nature and this helps to lay the foundation of opportunity for going beyond its natural limits and fully embrace the possibilities of space exploration.
The Search for New Minerals and Mining Opportunities
One topic of concern currently impacting mankind can be found with the utilization of natural resources on Earth and how the human race is depleting these limited resources. While many focus on the idea of reducing the use of such energy resources, other individuals are beginning to question what is available outside of the planet.
New ideas such as mining on asteroids have inspired a new following of mining professionals and financial investors who are seeking this lucrative opportunity. Only through the resources of space exploration will a solution for reducing the use of natural resources on Earth ever become a possibly.
The Placement of High Demand Satellites
Another topic displaying the vital importance of the use of space exploration can be seen with the high demand for advanced satellites. Many individuals take certain pieces of technology for granted such as GPS, weather forecasting, mineral discovery, and the avoidance of natural disasters.
Only through the use of satellites are you able to get precise directions and location, determine the weather for the week, find new mineral resources to rely upon, or become aware of hurricane closing in on your home. The placement of these satellites is crucial in order to access any form of data related to these topics, clearly showing the need for space exploration.
Access to Advancing Technologies
The final and most important point showing the vital importance of space exploration is discovered with gaining access to new and advanced technology. Almost every current advancement in technology can be traced back to an idea or development associated with space travel. When you have the opportunity to gather some of the greatest minds in the world it helps to create new ideas which may be intended for space but can often be applied to everyday life.
The use of GPS technology, the advancement of medical technology, the creation of new metallic alloys, and the improvement of portable cellular technology can all be traced to the opportunities surrounding technology used in space exploration.
While the demand for space exploration is often inspired by mankind's curiosity, the results produced from these endeavors easily justify any expense it creates. The human race is inspired by the idea of exploring the universe and this not only creates a focus for scientists but also helps to develop some of the most advanced technology in existence.
When you begin to question the importance of space exploration, make sure you take the time to discover how the benefits of this resource has impacted your life.

"Yellow Gorilla"
British painter Julie Fountain captivates the eye with her series of diminutive monkey business oils, creating portraits of primates with personality. Particularly remarkable is her placement of the subject against striking, colourful backgrounds not meant to emulate nature in the least. Fountain�s use of neon brights causes the apes to jump right out of the jungle and into an urban landscape.

If you think that could happen today, you're almost as insane as the producers themselves. While the movie might not pack the same punch as South Park these days, it's still a pretty damn twisted comedy about Nazis, brain-dead hippies and scumbag producers screwing old ladies for cash. The movie holds up better today than most comedies from its era because Brooks dared to go where wiser heads would have fled. Comedic bravery pays off.

Greetings pranking Fold!
All the usual gang is back and ready for some prank call action.
Trying to decide what sort of schedule would be best for posting BONUS COMICS (because 9/10 of my highest visits all year were to BONUS COMICS…) without alienating my main characters and the coolest regular readers of all time (that's you!).
Any ideas?
This Post Has 6 Comments
Iamwarriorfit.com Heh. Awesome.
William Poor Refrigerator, he just wanted to turn his life around after his wife left him and set him up to take the fall for all of her drug problems. Poor guy.
bman (The Underfold) It's funny, because in my original idea, his wife was the oven and his children were the microwave and coffee pot.
Xabichion As to the question actually asked… Maybe a once every 2 week thingy; that way you can put forth thinking/drawling time into the bonus comics, and drawing regular comic (*this is assuming you have pre-written the story arc; or at least the general direction the regular comic is going) **All of the above is also assuming you have time to draw *** Beer is good **** Oh Hai!
Xabichion Forgot to mention previously, <3 mad attention to "fridge"'s eyes.
Tony McGurk The fridge looks so ultra-upset that he will have to leave

Results tagged ' Bobby Doerr '
Hall Monitor: Strength, splits, speed and supremacy
By Trevor Hayes
As we enter the final week of the regular season, the mark that 2010 will leave on the game's history is quickly being finished. But just as quickly, the marks of yesteryear are being revisited.
Friendly Confines: Last night, Juan Uribe joined 2010 Hall of Famer Andre Dawson as the last two players to hit a pair of home runs in one inning at Wrigley. Uribe's grand slam and a two-run shot in the second helped the Giants dismantle the Cubs 13-0. Exactly 25 years ago today, Dawson provided a pair of three-run homers in the fifth in a 17-15 Expos victory.
Short Power: Only three players playing primarily shortstop during their careers have hit more than 300 home runs. The Padres' Miguel Tejada, who has played 94 percent of his career at short, connected for his 300th last night. He joined Alex Rodriguez and Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. Ripken hit 431 homers, playing 77 percent of his games at short before moving to the hot corner late in his career. Rodriguez – who topped the 600 homer mark last month – had 345 home runs before playing almost exclusively at third with the Yankees, but he's still logged 55 percent of his career at short. Often regarded as a shortstop, Hall of Famer and 500-home run club member Ernie Banks actually logged more games at first base with 45 percent of his games at shortstop.
Ending a drought: The Phillies had been without a 20-game winner since Hall of Famer Steve Carlton in 1982. Roy Halladay snapped the streak when he won his 20th game on Tuesday against the Braves. Only teams that have active streaks longer than the one Halladay broke. Like Carlton, the Padres last 20-game winner was a Hall of Famer: Gaylord Perry won 21 in 1978. The last pitcher to win 20 for the Nationals/Expos was Ross Grimsley, also in 1978.
Comfy in St. Lou: After Sunday's win against the Padres at Busch Stadium, Cards starter Adam Wainwright improved his home record to 12-3 with a 1.78 ERA. Rookie Jamie Garcia has been slightly better in St. Louis with a 1.74 home ERA. The last two Cards to qualify for the ERA title with home ERAs under 2.00 were Hall of Famers Steve Carlton and Bob Gibson. Carlton edged Gibson with a 1.92 ERA to Gibson's 1.94 at Busch in 1969.
Three to 100: Robinson Cano's two RBI Saturday at Baltimore pushed the 2010 Bombers into select company. Cano, along with teammates Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira, have each driven in 100 runs this season. Never before have three Yankee infielders done it in a single season, though six other groupings of players have – five of which included at least one Hall of Famer. The Red Sox have had three different infields with the achievement – accomplishing it in 1937, 1940 and 1950. Joe Cronin, Bobby Doerr and Jimmie Foxx were each a part of two Sox groups, with all three on the 1940 team. Charlie Gehringer and Hank Greenberg were two of the Tigers three 100-RBI infielders in 1934, while Lou Boudreau and Joe Gordon were on the 1948 Indians squad which pulled off the feat. The only previous group without a Hall of Famer is the 2001 A's of Eric Chavez, Jason Giambi and Miguel Tejada – all three of whom are still active.
Johnny Quick: Johnny Damon is second player to reach 100 career triples this season. He began the season as the active leader – tied with Jimmy Rollins at 95 – but Rays speedster Carl Crawford passed Damon for the active lead earlier this season and broke 100 last month. Since 1901, 108 Major League players have reached 100 triples. Of them, 52 are Hall of Famers, while four are not yet eligible. Since 1950, just 22 players have compiled 100 triples, of which eight are in the Hall of Fame.
Mr. Tiger in Detroit: Al Kaline's book "Six: A Salute to Al Kaline," released earlier this year, contains over 150 pages of articles and never-before-seen photographs and captures what the 1980 Hall of Fame inductee has meant to the franchise, his teammates, fans and the baseball world. As a special treat, Kaline will sign copies at Comerica Park prior to the team's final home game of the season Sunday against the Twins.

Hall Monitor: Prodigies, perfection and the past
By Trevor Hayes
Pirate Prodigy: Not since 1928 has a Pirate had as many hits at his one-year anniversary as center fielder Andrew McCutchen. Currently riding a .302 average, the 23-year-old celebrated passed the one year mark since his major-league debut last week. He had 185 hits, the most by a Buc since Hall of Famer Lloyd Waner collected 225 in his first year.
Rare day for the all-time leader: Ivan Rodriguez has caught 2,322 games – the all-time leader among catchers after having passed greats like Johnny Bench, Gary Carter and Carlton Fisk. But only three times in his career has Pudge caught a pitcher who racked up 14 strikeouts like Stephen Strasburg did on Tuesday in Washington. Strasburg joins Jeremy Bonderman in 2004 and Hall of Famer Nolan Ryan in 1991 as the only pitchers to dominate their opponents that much with Rodriguez behind the plate. Pudge's Astros jersey from the game in which he broke the games caught record last season is on display in the Museum in the Today's Game exhibit.
Cubbies and 300: One-hundred and twenty-seven players have hit 300 home runs in the history of the majors. Wednesday, Derek Lee added his name to that list and this afternoon, Alfonso Soriano clubbed his 300th. Both join an impressive group of names to do so while playing on the North-side. Six other players have belted No. 300 with the Cubs including Hall of Famers Ernie Banks, Billy Williams and Andre Dawson. The most recent before Lee was Sammy Sosa who the 300th of 609 career home runs in June of 1999.
Boston's newest Fenway attraction: Two Hall of Famers and two other Red Sox legends were honored this week, as the team dedicated a new statue Bobby Doerr, Dom DiMaggio, Johnny Pesky and Ted Williams. The four were staples in the Sox lineups in the 1940s and into the 50s. All four were All-Stars and all four served in the military during World War II. The lifelong friends and Sox legends had their story told in David Halberstam's book The Teammates – Portrait of a Friendship. The new statue is a tribute to their legacy and features the four standing shoulder to shoulder holding bats. It is outside Fenway's Gate B at Van Ness and Ipswich.
Perfection and the Hall-aday: Roy Halladay threw the major's 20th perfect game on May 29, beating Marlins ace Josh Johnson 1-0 in the process. The two matched up again Thursday and Johnson got the win. 1965 marks the last time a perfect pitcher faced his opponent again in the same season, as Hall of Famer Sandy Koufax and Chicago's Bob Hendley squared off in back-to-back starts. Koufax mastered the Cubs on Sept. 9, and like Halladay in a 1-0 win, but like Johnson, Hendley got the win in the rematch.
Remembering the past: The Tigers will play host to a weekend long celebration of the Negro leagues, highlighted by their 16th annual Negro Leagues Tribute Game, Saturday. The Tigers will don Detroit Stars uniforms while the Pirates will pay homage to the Pittsburgh Crawfords. During the series, Hall of Famer Turkey Stearnes – a former Star – will be recognized with a video about his plaque, which was dedicated at Comerica Park in 2007. Stearnes' grandson will throw one of the ceremonial first pitches, while Stearnes daughters will perform the national anthem. Former Negro leaguers Frank Crosson, Joe Douse, Buck Duncan, Bee-Bop Gordon, Bill Hill, Gene Johnson, Cecil Kaiser, Alton King, Bullet Moore and Schoolboy Teasley will be on hand throughout the weekend.

Irvin a part of living history at Hall of Fame
By Craig Muder
When Monte Irvin was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1973, the Hall's entire roster of members included 140 names.
Today, almost half that number – 68 – are living Hall of Famers, and the Hall's total membership has more than doubled to 292.
Irvin, the fourth-oldest living Hall of Famer, celebrates his 91st birthday today. He belongs to the Hall of Fame's Roaring 90s club along with Lee MacPhail (92), Bobby Doerr (91) and Bob Feller (91) – with Stan Musial set to turn 90 on Nov. 21 of this year.
No other point in history has seen 68 living members of the Baseball Hall of Fame. In fact, it wasn't until the Class of 1953 – fourteen years after the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum first opened its doors in Cooperstown – that the total number of Hall of Famers even reached 68.
Election to the Hall of Fame remains sport's most exclusive honor. Of the more than 17,000 men who have played Major League Baseball, 203 – a little more than one percent – have been enshrined in the Hall of Fame as players.
Happy Birthday Monte!

A visit with history
By Jeff Idelson
The job requirements that come with being president of the Hall of Fame are diverse, but one of the great elements is staying in touch with our Hall of Fame members.
We have 65 living legends, many of whom I see several times annually. It's important for the Hall of Fame that I maintain and grow these relationships, as they are the lifeblood of the Hall of Fame. These are the men who bestow the virtues of Cooperstown upon fans across the country.
Just before Thanksgiving, I made a trip west to see Tom Seaver, Willie McCovey and Bobby Doerr. I met McCovey at his home south of San Francisco in the Peninsula area, and then had dinner with Willie and his friend of 50 years, Rocky Dudem, near Willie Mac's home. We talked about the state of the Giants, what's new in Cooperstown and how much Willie missed attending Hall of Fame Weekend this year.
A few days later I ventured north to Napa Valley to visit with Tom and Nancy Seaver. Tom's added a new chapter to his life as a wine maker. GTS Vineyards bottles Cabernet and is terrific. For Tom, he approaches his new career as he did his playing career. "It's all about the journey," No. 41 said to me as he greeted me in blue jeans and a work shirt with a pair of pruning shears in his back pocket. As we walked the vineyard, it became obvious that creating the product was as – if not more – important than distributing the wine.
A quick flight to Portland, Ore., the following morning, followed by a two-hour drive south on I-5 to Junction City, brought me to the home of Bobby Doerr. Getting to Bobby's house reminded me of driving in central New York. "Take the 5 south, take a right at a stop sign, go over a bridge for 5 miles, and a left will get you to my house," said Doerr prior to my visit.
A man of great character, the 91-year old Doerr — the Hall of Fame's oldest living player — greeted me with a big smile. As we sat in the living room of his modest ranch-style home amidst 150 acres of virgin farm land, Doerr reveled how he and his father-in-law had built the home he shared with his late wife Monica two years after he retired in 1951. He proudly showed me a recent picture he found, one of Bobby in his Little League uniform, with his dad and brother.
After lunch in an area restaurant that used to be a bank, I dropped Bobby home and headed north to Portland.
Seeing our Hall of Famers in the natural surroundings reminded me that these men are just like any of us. They care about their community, are proud and have a great zest for life outside of baseball — as they did when playing.

Feller joins Club 91
By Craig Muder
At little more than four months ago, Bob Feller was standing on the mound at Doubleday Field in Cooperstown – preparing to throw the first pitch of the Baseball Hall of Fame Classic.
Today, Feller will celebrate his 91st birthday. And the man who has been a Hall of Famer longer than any other shows no signs of slowing down.
Feller, born Nov. 3, 1918, in Van Meter, Iowa, becomes the 12th Hall of Famer to reach his 91st birthday. He is the third-oldest living Hall of Famer – behind 92-year-old Lee MacPhail and 91-year-old Bobby Doerr, who is a little more than six months older than Feller
A little perspective: Feller was born eight days before the end of World War I. And at the June 21 Hall of Fame Classic, Feller faced Hall of Famer Paul Molitor – who was born in 1956, Feller's final year in the major leagues.
Feller, MacPhail, Doerr and Monte Irvin are the only living Hall of Famers who have reached their 90th birthday (Irvin turned 90 on Feb, 25, 2009). Stan Musial will be the next Hall of Famer to turn 90 when he celebrates his birthday on Nov. 21, 2010.
Al Lopez remains the oldest Hall of Famer, having reached the age of 97 before passing away on Oct. 30, 2005.
Feller was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1962, meaning he has lived more years as a Hall of Famer (47) than not (44). No one has worn the title of "Hall of Famer" with more pride.
Happy birthday, Bob Feller!
Craig Muder is director of communications for the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.

Worker Bees
At Clean Bee Laundry, we all want to be treated well. So we've made it part of each worker bee's job description to Bee Kind ☼ Bee Considerate ☼ Bee Attentive.
We insist that this is not your ordinary laundromat. Our worker bees create and support a welcoming, and guest-centric culture. We include the following as required worker bee behaviors in all job descriptions and deem it critical to satisfactory job performance.
- We greet visitors, worker bees and customers warmly, by name (if known) and with a smile.
- We treat everyone with courteous respect.
- We strive to anticipate visitor, worker bee and customer needs and act accordingly.
- We listen and respond enthusiastically to people in a timely manner.
- We hold ourselves and one another accountable for these behaviors.
- We embrace and value our differences.
- We strive to make visitors, worker bees and customers feel important.
- We ask every one "Is there anything else I can do for you?"
- We maintain high levels of professionalism, both in conduct and appearance, at all times.
- We pay attention to details; because details do matter!
Meet our sweet team!
Kathryn became a worker bee during the summer of 2011. Even though (or maybe because?) she and Jennifer's mom have the same name, we hold her in the highest regard. She is a true team player and embodies this Bee Behavior: We strive to anticipate visitor, employee, and customer needs and act accordingly.
Kody holds down the hive most evenings. His customer service is top notch – doing all that he can to satisfy even our most demanding customers.
Nick is a folding machine. From his perch in the back, it may look like he's simply folding laundry. He's actually keeping an eye on everything that happens with wash/dry/fold. We all appreciate his steady-eddie approach and his commitment to Clean Bee. Now if only we could clone him!
Alumni Bees:
Erica was Camden Clean Bee's first commercial laundry warrior. She kept the hive running smoothly so that we could spend some quality time with our children (and do our own laundry). Pursuing a passion, Erica is in nursing school and we wish her well.
Joe could be found at sorting quarters or folding diapers at the Bee. He was always happy to lend a hand or a cheerful smile. We miss is infectious laugh and his kind, kind being.
Angela pretty much came with the place – and how lucky we were! Passionate about cleaning and order, Angela sings the praises of Charlies All Purpose Cleaner.
Andrea joined us in the very bee-gining. Fond of her puppy and friends, Andrea is a loyal spirit. She's moved on and we wish her nothing short of the absolute best as she creates her future.

culintro.com/timeout.com |
Course ya do.
Like winning?
Probably more than getting free stuff.
That's why we're bunching the two together and giving you a chance to win two tickets to Trade Talks 2013. The SoBeWFF satellite event will give you the chance to rub elbows and speak candidly with the likes of celebrity chef Marc Murphy and restaurateur Danny Meyer.
Find out how you can score tickets after the jump.
The intimate sit-down Q&A will give you the opportunity to ask these guys whatever you please. Seasoned Chopped judge Marc Murphy began his career as a lowly line cook and moved up, but is the kitchen his one true calling?
Danny Meyer is the brains behind the beloved Shake Shack. He's a multiple James Beard Award winner for his restaurant concepts. But what if he doesn't even like burgers or shakes?
You'd be surprised by the quirky facts a Q&A like this can bring to light. Maybe both guys are secret agents.
In any case, you can ask what you want and eat and drink the complimentary food and cocktails this Friday, February 22.
The talks will be held at Lacoste at 1026 Lincoln Rd., in Miami Beach.
At 2 p.m. today, we'll select two winners and contact them with the good news. There's no need to make plans to pick up your tickets, because they'll be waiting for you at the Lacoste storefront. Simple!

Viziers of the New Kingdom By Yona Williams 2/11/12
The New Kingdom included the 18th to 20th Dynasties in ancient Egyptian history with rulers such as Amenhotep, King Tut, and many Ramses. In this article, you will learn about some of the right-hand men that served the pharaohs of the New Kingdom. Hapuseneb During the reign of Hatshepsut in the 19th Dynasty, Hapuseneb was the High Priest of Amun that served a pharaoh known as the "Foremost of Noble Ladies." She was the fifth ruler of the 18th dynasty and is considered by some historians as one of the most successful of pharaohs. Hapuseneb was born to Ah-hotep, who belonged to the royal harem and Hapu, who was Lecture Priest of Amun. In his family, he had a brother named Sa-Amun, who was a scribe and 1st sealer of the god Amun. Hapuseneb served as High Priest during Year 2 to Year 16 of Hatshepsut. When Hapuseneb died, he was laid to rest in Upper Egpyt in TT67, which was situated in Sheikh Abd el-Qurna – part of the Theban Necropolis on the west bank of the Nile. When he was vizier, he held the following titles: "Hereditary Prince and Count, Treasurer of the King of Upper and Lower Egypt, First Prophet of Amun, Overseer of the Priest of Upper and Lower Egypt, and Overseer of All the Works of the King." Nakhtpaaten During the 18th Dynasty, Nakhtpaaten served as the vizier during the reign of Akhenten – the pharaoh known for shifting from the traditions of Egyptian polytheism to encouraging worship that concentrated on the Aten – often referred to as a monotheistic approach. Before Nakhtpaaten became vizier, he took over the position previously held by Ramose, who was vizier in Thebes up until around the time of the establishment of the new capitol in Akhenaten. The tomb of Ramose was never finished in Thebes and after the capitol was moved to the new city within four to five years, Nakhtpaaten had become the new vizier. Researchers learned that the vizier was given the following titles (as seen from his home and tomb): "Hereditary prince, count, sealbearer, overseer of the city and vizier, overseer of the work projects in Akhet-Aten." His home was located in the southern part of the city called Akhet-Aten. There, a large mansion was revealed, which included reception halls, bedrooms, bathroom, and offices. In the Amama rock tombs, Nakhtpaaten was laid to rest in Tomb no. 12. Herihor When Ramesses XI ruled ancient Egypt, Herihor held the position of army officer and High Priest of Amun at Thebes from 1080 BC to 1074 BC. Herihor was Vizier of the South during the 20th century and is known as one of the last to serve the ancient civilization. When Ramesses XI and his successors of the 21st Dynasty split with the High Priests of Amun at Thebes, a time period known as the 'Renaissance' began. This event marked the unofficial political division of Egypt that took place between Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt.

Democrats Pick Up State House Seats, End Republican Supermajority
Categories: Politicks
Before Tuesday, Republicans held 81 of the 120 seats in the Florida House. That two-thirds majority left Democrats effectively powerless.
Last night, Republican incumbent State Reps. Peter Nehr, Scott Plakon and Shawn Harrison were all upset by Democratic challengers.
Rep. Chris Dorwoth, a controversial politician who was in line to become Speaker of the House in two years, may also be headed to defeat. On election night it appeared he was losing to Democratic challenger Mike Clelland in his Seminole County district. That race is now headed to a recount.
In Miami, meanwhile, Democratic newcomer Jose Javier Rodriguez knocked off GOP veteran Alex Diaz de la Portilla to add a Blue seat to the Dade delegation.
Several other house races were decided by less than a few hundred votes, and have not been officially called yet, but so far Democrats have done enough to end that GOP supermajority.

The U.S. economy experienced a boost in April, according to today's ADP National Employment Report, which reported that the private sector increased by 220,000 jobs this year. The total nonfarm employment growth is "well above the twelve-month average," says president and CEO of ADP Carlos Rodriguez in a press release. April's increase is up from the revised March figure of 209,000 jobs—initially reported as 191,000—and February's 193,000—initially underestimated at 139,000.
"April's number is representative of underlying monthly job growth," says Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody's Analytics, the financial services company that partners with ADP to produce the monthly report. Zandi says that upcoming employment reports should be consistently over 200,000 total jobs "into the foreseeable future."
The construction industry added 19,000 jobs to the private sector, an average of the previous two months: 21,000 in March and 17,000 in February. Zandi predicts that the construction industry in particular will add growth later this year and into 2015, because the housing market is experiencing a decrease in supply.
Zandi pointed out that the report, which is derived from ADP's actual payroll data, indicates that job growth is broad-based across all industries with the exception of manufacturing—which only added 1,000 jobs this month. This is down from March and February's revised numbers of 4,000 and 5,000, respectively. But at least the industry is in the positive—the year began with a loss of 11,000 manufacturing jobs in January.
The professional and business services sector, a broad category that most likely includes architects and engineers, has grown consistently over the last three months. The sector added 77,000 jobs in April, following 67,000 in March and 57,000 in February.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics report is scheduled for release on Friday morning, providing more detailed information about the economic state of the construction and architecture fields.

Tiger basketball at home this weekend vs. NW Oklahoma State
By CONOR NICHOLL
Fort Hays State University women's basketball coach Tony Hobson didn't have to look very far to find his next assistant coach. For many years, Hobson had Carrie Hofstetter on the sideline. Hofstetter was an All-American guard at Hastings (Neb.) College, where Hobson won three NAIA national championships in his tenure.
Then, Hofstetter became Hobson's assistant coach at Hastings and for his first four years at FHSU. In the summer, Hofstetter took over the head job at Hastings. Hofstetter had spent 12 years with Hobson, four as a player and eight as a coach.
Hobson filled his assistant position with Talia Miller, who took a similar road to Hofstetter. Miller started her career at Hastings and then transferred to Fort Hays when Hobson took the new job. Miller had multiple knee surgeries in the last few years, but did manage to play about a year and a half as a guard for the Tigers. Last season, Miller was the Tigers' student assistant.
"I am used to having Talia around," Hobson said. "This is her sixth year with me as either a player or some type of an assistant. Talia is going to be fine. She is just kind of getting used to how things work. Obviously, Carrie did a great job and you always miss those people when they leave, but that's the fourth assistant coach that I have had that's gotten a head job. Three in college, one in high school, so it's not the first time that I have had to make a little adjustment."
This winter, Miller has helped Fort Hays start 2-0 with blowout victories against NAIA schools McPherson College and Bethany College.
"We are getting along fine," Hobson said. "The kids respect Talia and they listen to her and that's the main thing."
On Saturday, Fort Hays has its first test against a NCAA Division II school with a home game against Northwestern Oklahoma State University (0-1). Game time is 2 p.m. at Gross Memorial Coliseum.
"She is a fantastic asset to the team," senior guard Melissa Nelson said. "She just knows things from a player's perspective and now she is doing it as a coach, so she can point out things that we wouldn't even think about. Definitely an asset."
Lunsford seeing consistent playing time
Freshman Paige Lunsford, a first-team all-state player for Hays High School last season, has worked her way into the Tigers' rotation. Lunsford has played 23 minutes in two contests, part of 11 players who have logged at least 11 minutes.
"She isn't playing bad," Hobson said of Lunsford. "Her game time has been fine. But she is better than that in practice, and I think eventually, once she kind of gets used to the speed of the game - playing at home, she is from Hays, I think she is a little nervous."
She has averaged two points and four rebounds a contest. Sophomore center Kate Lehman leads the Tigers with 17.5 points per game.
"I watched her play quite a bit of times (at HHS)," Hobson added. "Her intellect is what is so good. That's what allows her to be a good player. She really understands the game. She is a good passer. I look for good things from her. I think she will be really good off the bench for us this year. She will continue to get better."
Men have solid test
The Tiger men have also opened 2-0 with big victories versus McPherson and Bethany. Fort Hays will play host to Northwestern Oklahoma State University on Saturday at 4 p.m. NOSU (0-2) is transitioning to the Division II level. Junior forward Dwayne Brunson leads FHSU with 16.5 points per contest.
"I think they are a pretty solid club," Johnson said. "It's going to be a much different game than our first two. They have got a kid inside they really go to, a big kid. Very quick, athletic guards. ... They have had a very challenging schedule to start the year and we're right there to win them both on the road. It's definitely jumps up from what we have been doing."

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowThe creation of chef Mike Saperstein and partner Evan David -- the pair behind Charm City Burgers -- El Jefe Luchador offers "hard-core Mexican street food" in a fun environment. Tables and chairs wear primary colors. Flamboyant lucha libre wrestling masks are mounted on one wall. A gaudy crystal chandelier hangs from tin ceilings. ZZ Top blares through the speakers. Plates have names like "Vampiro" and "Dos Locos Gringos." Bold décor parallels bold flavors in the food that's coming out of the kitchen here. Chicken or rib-eye asada tacos are the most popular, but foodies love the more adventurous pork carnitas (citrus garlic-braised pork shoulder), barbacoa (braised beef brisket), or mushrooms and yam. Toppings here are traditional yet flavorful: a ripe tomato and onion medley, tart lime, cilantro, and queso blanco.

- 3 organic chicken breasts (ask your butcher to cut the breasts in half and pound them a 1/4-inch thick)
- 1/2 cup(s) fresh orange juice
- 2 tablespoon(s) seasoned rice wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup(s) orange marmalade
- 1 teaspoon(s) red pepper flakes
- 1 tablespoon(s) fresh ginger, minced
- 1 clove(s) garlic, minced
- 4 tablespoon(s) olive oil
- 1 tablespoon(s) kosher salt
- Canola oil
- Place the chicken in a container large enough to hold six pieces of chicken.
- To prepare the marinade: In a glass bowl, whisk together the orange juice, rice wine vinegar, orange marmalade, red pepper flakes, ginger, garlic, and olive oil. Pour over chicken, seal, and leave in the refrigerator 8 hours or, even better, overnight. This will tenderize the chicken.
- To grill: Remove chicken from marinade and pat dry. Sprinkle both sides with kosher salt. Heat a grill pan or heavy skillet or fire up your outdoor grill until hot. Season the surface of the grill with 1 tablespoon of canola oil and use a paper towel to spread the oil evenly. Turn down the heat to medium-high. Do not place chicken breasts too close together, or you will create steam. Grill the chicken 3 inches apart.
- Grill the chicken for 3 minutes on each side. Continue to grill for 1 more minute on each side for a total grill time of 8 minutes. Some of the pieces may grill faster if they are thinner than the others. Keep your eye on it and don't let it overcook or burn. Remove the chicken from grill and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken into strips or serve whole.
