What makes you feel crawling under your skin and itching?
I am a 25 y o guy and trying to understand why my skin it feels like it is crawling sensation all underneath it, at first just on my face, like under my eyebrows, then on my fingernails and arms. What should I do.
Itching is a common condition. The sensation of crawling underneath the skin is also well described, although somewhat more rare. Medically this is known as formication. This requires medical attention. I would recommend that you see your
. Formication can be caused by many conditions. The classic condition that causes this is both the intoxication and withdrawal from cocaine. Other synthetic drugs like methamphetamines or stimulants (like those for ADHD) can mimic this. If any of these are applicable to you (or if you recently started any medicine / illicit drug) I would STRONGLY recommend seeing your doctor. Alcohol withdrawal can also cause formication. This could be a sign of sever alcohol withdrawal which can be fatal and therefore requires medical attention. Again, talk to your doctor immediately if this applies to you. There can be other causes. Often this can be caused by a neuropathy, or problem with the nerves. Nutritional deficiencies, Lyme disease, thyroid problems or syphilis infection are common causes of nerve problems. Again, speak to your doctor. There are skin problems which can also cause this situation. Dermatitis, or inflammation of the skin, can be caused by many things but may be interpreted as formication. Again, see your doctor. Good luck!

Brat Poppers
Latest Review
No need to eliminate cheese. These are really good, but I tried them with a variety of cheeses stuffed in with the brats: Colby, Cheddar, and Jalapeno Jack. The over-all consensus was that they are awesome, but nobody could pick a favorite cheese, so we agreed that more testing will have to be done, probably on-going on a weekly basis until we've picked a winner :) — Rick
18 servingsINGREDIENTS
- 18 Jalapeno peppers*
- 1 package (14 ounces) JOHNSONVILLE® Smoked Brats
- 1 package (16 ounces) bacon, cut into thirds
- Using a sharp knife, slice 1/4 inch off the stem end of the peppers, discard the stem.
- Using a small knife or vegetable peeler, remove seeds and spines of the peppers, discard.
- Dice the sausages into small pieces and stuff the peppers with the sausage.
- Cover the sausage with a 1/3 strip of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
- Grill the brat bullets over medium heat until evenly roasted and the bacon is crisp.

This miniseries opens in Berkeley, California in 1938, where pampered, tenured professors, safe on the shores of peaceful America, dabble in radical politics as the world heads inevitably towards war. J. Robert Oppenheimer is such a one. Two events--one personal, one scientific--combine to change Oppy's life forever and catapult him from a moderately successful theoretician to a world famous figure. First, news of successful fission experiments in Europe spurs him to pursue a role in the government's efforts to develop an atomic bomb. Second, new wife Kitty is pushing him to advance his career during the coming war years. Oppenheimer wanted to be both a radical and a member of the establishment; was paradoxically both a tortured socialist and a hardened realist. He appreciated the opportunity the military gave him to develop a project he would never have realized in his university career, despite believing that scientists aren't the only ones to pass moral judgments on the results of their experiments. Moreover, although some of the more unsavory aspects of Oppenheimer's career seem to have been deliberately elided, on balance, the portrayal of Oppenheimer is dramatically inclusive, and avoids the pitfalls of portraying him as a tragically heroic figure. After being shown in Britain in 1980, Oppenheimer aired in the US on PBS's American Playhouse in 1982.

DALEY WINS SIXTH TERM; UDALL-McINNIS SEN RACE SHAPING UP IN COLORADO. ILLINOIS: Chicago Mayor Richard M. "Rich" Daley (D) cruised to a landslide re-election win on Tuesday for a sixth term. Daley scored 72% against his two minor opponents in the non-partisan race. If Daley serves out this full four-year term, he will pass his father -- Richard J. "Dick" Daley -- as the city's longest serving mayor. Daley's father died in office in 1976 after serving 21 years as Mayor. If he completes this term, Daley will have served 22 years as mayor. COLORADO: It more than a month after US Senator Wayne Allard (R) announced his retirement, but Republicans finally have an official candidate for the open seat. Former Congressman Scott McInnis (R) filed FEC paperwork this week to seek the seat. Former Congressman Bob Schaffer (R), who lost a 2004 US Senate primary, is also looking at the contest. Congressman Mark Udall (D) is a lock to be the Democratic nominee. Udall was already running when Allard announced his retirement. A Udall-McInnis race would be highly competitive, with Udall seemingly holding a slight advantage at the outset based upon money, his early organizing efforts, and recent statewide voting trends in Colorado.

BREAUX FACES LEGAL BAR; SIMMONS OUT; EX-BLACK PANTHER CHAIR ENTERS GREEN RACE. LOUISIANA: Rumors are continuing to swirl that Governor Kathleen Blanco (D) -- a Breaux friend -- will quit her race for re-election this year so Breaux can jump in. In an effort to deter Breaux, State GOP Chair Roger Villere said research by the party's lawyers show Breaux is no longer eligible under state law to run for Governor in 2007. Villere said Breaux no longer meets the state constitutional requirement of being a Louisiana "citizen" for "at least the preceding five years." According to the AP, "Breaux is registered to vote and lists his primary address in Maryland, about 70 miles from Washington, where he works for the lobbying firm of Patton Boggs. Breaux changed his voter registration to Maryland after he retired ... in 2005." Villere says Breaux is not eligible and the GOP would be willing to go to court to disqualify him from the race. "We would have a strong case that he's not qualified because he doesn't meet our residency requirements," said Villere. Breaux's spokesman declined to comment on the story. If this information is correct, it could provide a very quick end to any further Breaux-Blanco "secret deal" stories. CONNECTICUT: Freshman Congressman Joe Courtney (D) got some great news on Monday. The Politico reports former Congressman Rob Simmons (R), who was ousted last year by Courtney in the closest House race in the nation, is now unlikely to seek a rematch. The reason: Simmons just accepted a new job as the State Business Advocate in the office of Governor Jodi Rell (R). GREENS: Former Black Panther Party National Chair and author Elaine Brown -- a close associate of the late radical Huey Newton -- has announced her candidacy for the Green Party's Presidential nomination. She intends to run on a platform "that addresses the interests of poor and working families, in terms of living wages, free health care, decent housing and increased funding for public education and higher education, ending the war in Iraq, restoring the environment and bringing about economic parity." Brown believes her candidacy could help grow the Greens. "I know the party can earn a significant increase in votes and membership, which will increase our viability to take congressional seats, state house seats, and local offices," she explains. AL GORE - AN EDITORIAL: Yes, I'm openly and vocally supporting Obama for President. I've already contributed to his campaign and have encouraged others to do likewise. And, yes, I also like Edwards. I'll even acknowledge Clinton (not one of my top choices) is a strong favorite to win the Democratic nomination. Richardson and some of the others look good, too. That said, I'd be willing to walk away from all of the current field if Al Gore could be persuaded to enter the race later this year as a "Democratic unity" candidate. Gore repeatedly says he "has no plans to run" and seems sincere about it. But he'd make a great candidate in the general election, possibly the strongest candidate the Democrats could possibly put forward. Vietnam War veteran. Congressman. US Senator. Vice President. Environmental activist. Author. Oscar winner. Nobel Prize nominee. Best of all, his years out of elective politics since 2000 have turned him into a much more seasoned and likable guy in terms of his personality.

DEMS TRY TO LIMIT '02 WAR RESOLUTION; IRAN WAR PLANNING; RON PAUL UPDATE. IRAQ: Senate Armed Services Committee Chair Carl Levin (D-MI) confirmed Sunday during an appearance on Meet the Press that he will introduce legislation to revise the initial 2002 congressional authorization resolution for the war in Iraq. Levin's plan, which is backed the Dem leadership, would require that "most" troops be withdraw from Iraq by March 2008. Don't look for the plan to go anywhere, as Levin acknowledged the Dems don't have enough votes to kill a likely Republican filibuster to block any Iraq withdrawal plans. IRAN: The Sunday Times (London, UK) reports that at least four top ranking US generals have made it clear they will each resign if the Bush Administration decides to take military action against Iran. The newspaper did not identify either the UK & US sources nor the names of the generals. However, they did report Defense Secretary Robert Gates "has repeatedly warned [the White House] against striking Iran." Gates and the generals purportedly believe the US lacks the military capacity to take Iran on in any meaningful fashion and would be a major "error of judgment." In related news, New Yorker magazine reported this weekend that the Joint Chiefs of Staff -- at the urging of the Bush Administration -- recently created a special Pentagon planning group to plan a bombing attack on Iran that could be implemented within 24-hours of getting word from the White House. The official Pentagon response was a non-denial denial: "The United States is not planning to go to war with Iran. To suggest anything to the contrary is simply wrong, misleading and mischievous." It all depends on what is meant in that quote by the use of the word "war." LIBERTARIANS: Anti-tax activist Michael Badnarik, the Libertarian Party's 2004 Presidential nominee, has endorsed Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) for President. While Badnarik understands Paul is seeking the GOP nomination, he also is encouraging the LP to nominate Paul for President. Paul was previously the LP Presidential nominee in 1988, and has not expressed any interest in the 2008 LP nomination. In fact, Paul has already said he also plans to seek re-election to the House next year as a Republican. At least ten candidates have announced campaigns for the LP nomination.

VILSACK QUITS; RUDY & JOHN SKIP; RICHTER PROTECTING US GOALS; ARNOLD'S FUTURE. P2008 - DEMS: Former Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack (D) -- the immediate past chair of the centrist Democratic Leadership Council -- quit the Presidential race on Friday. Vilsack announced his candidacy in early November 2006, and positioned himself as a strident foe of the Iraq War. However, independent poll numbers repeatedly showed him running fourth in his homestate of Iowa behind the "first tier" trio of Clinton, Obama and Edwards -- which likely convinced Vilsack he was a very longshot at best to break into the leader group. For the record, Vilsack attributed his withdrawal to serious fundraising problems. P2008 - GOP: Both John McCain and Rudy Giuliani will be "no shows" at the first New Hampshire candidates debate in April sponsored by WMUR-TV. Both men have scheduling conflicts and informed the TV station they will not attend. CT/NY: According to the Rothenberg Political Report, retired pro hockey goalie Mike Richter is looking to run for Congress in 2008 -- but he's shopping around for the best possible district. Richter, who played college hockey at Yale and in the NHL for the New York Rangers, is looking at seats in both Connecticut and New York. One possible opponent: vulnerable Congressman Chris Shays (R-CT). ARNOLD: California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) told The Politico he very much likes both John McCain and Rudy Giuliani, but plans to make no endorsement in the race until after the GOP selects a Presidential nominee. He also said he is interested in running for either US Senator or Los Angeles Mayor once he is term-limited in 2010. Posted by Ron Gunzburger - 02.24.07 | Permalink |

POSSIBLE JOE-FECTION; COCHRAN TO RUN AGAIN; MEEHEN SPECIAL LOOKS MORE LIKELY. US SENATE: US Senator Joe Lieberman (Independent Dem-CT) is dropping vague hints he'd consider switching to the Republican Party if congressional Dems block or cut federal funding for the US military effort in Iraq. "I have no desire to change parties. If that ever happens, it is because I feel the majority of Democrats have gone in a direction that I don't feel comfortable with ... We will see how that plays out in the coming months," said Lieberman to The Politico. MISSISSIPPI: US Senator Thad Cochran (R) says he is now likely to seek re-election in 2008. He has begun scheduling fundraising events to show he's serious about the race. Cochran told the Clarion-Ledger he "felt that Mississippi had too much invested in me and I have too much invested in Mississippi" to walk away from 30 years of seniority. MASSACHUSETTS: Congressman Martin Meehan (D) was named one of three finalists for the chancellorship at University of Massachusetts-Lowell. If Meehan gets the appointment -- as many believe will happen -- expect a free-for-all in the special election to fill his seat. Three Dems have already announced they will run in the special, and at least seven more are looking at the race. GEORGIA: Govenor Sonny Perdue (R) set June 19, 2007, as the date for the CD-10 special election primary to replace the late Congressman Charlie Norwood (R).

FREE SPEECH ZONE. I've received a bunch of emails asking me what I think of Circuit Judge Larry Seidlin, of the current Anna Nicole Smith body trial infamy. Yes, I know him and have appeared before Judge Seidlin in the past (although the last time I appeared before him in on a case was at least 15 years ago). Well ... to be rather diplomatic here ... I'm enjoying that now the rest of the nation has a chance to learn what those of us here have already known about him. "The wheels of justice aren't always round. Sometimes they're kind of square, and like in the Old West, the ride can be bumpy." Huh? There were square wheels in the Old West? Please, please don't anyone give this embarrassment a TV show.

NEW IOWA POLL NUMBERS; R.I. BACKDOORS GAY MARRIAGE. IOWA: A new Strategic Vision-R poll was released Wednesday of likely Iowa caucus participants. Republicans: Rudy Giuliani - 29%, John McCain - 22%, Newt Gingrich - 11%, Mitt Romney - 9%, Chuck Hagel - 5%, Tommy Thompson - 3%, and all others with 2% or less apiece. Democrats: John Edwards - 24%, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama tied with 18% each, Tom Vilsack - 14%, Joe Biden - 5%, Bill Richardson - 3%, and all others with 2% or less apiece. Interestingly, 48% of Republican respondents said they favored "a withdrawal of all United States military from Iraq within the next six months" -- versus 37% opposed the idea. By contrast, Democrats favored withdrawal by a 64-9 margin. These pro-withdrawal numbers could bode ill in Iowa for candidates in both parties who either are pro-surge or waffle on Iraq. GAY MARRIAGE: Attorney General Patrick Lynch (D) issued an advisory opinion on Wednesday that the state will grant full recognition and marital benefits to all same-sex Rhode Island couples who got married in Massachusetts. "Rhode Island will recognize same sex marriages lawfully performed in Massachusetts as marriages in Rhode Island," wrote Lynch. While the advisory opinion is significant, it is not binding. Legal observers expect most state and local governmental entities in the state will honor Lynch's directive. Posted by Ron Gunzburger - 02.22.07 | Permalink |

FL GOP KILLS STRAW POLL; MULTIPLE CHOICE REPUBLICANS; IRAQ; FEDS SEEK LIBBY FLIP. FLORIDA: John McCain's allies won a strategic victory over rival Mitt Romney in behind-the-scenes maneuvering for this fall's Florida Republican Convention. Romney -- who is backed by many of former Governor Jeb Bush's closest allies in the state (although Jeb is officially neutral) -- is viewed as as having the best field organization in the state. McCain -- who is backed by many of Governor Charlie Crist's closest allies (although Crist is officially neutral) -- was worried he would be embarrassed by Romney's purported superior ability in Florida to turnout supporters at key events. That's why it is being viewed as a McCain victory that state party leaders this week cancelled the planned straw poll of delegates and replaced it with a Presidential candidates debate. Romney's campaign was officially "disappointed" by the move. While the change of plans helped McCain avoid a possible straw ballot defeat at Romney's hands, Rudy Giuliani and others may all benefit by this deep-sixing of the convention vote. ABORTION: Pro-life GOP Presidential candidates John McCain and Mitt Romney both have some 'splaining to do to social conservative primary voters. Two new videos surfaced on the popular YouTube website showing both men making fairly recent statements in support of preserving a woman's right to abortion secured by the controversial Roe v. Wade decision. For McCain, it is a clip of him speaking during the 2000 primaries. "But we all know, and it's obvious, that if we repeal Roe v. Wade tomorrow, thousands of young American women would be performing illegal and dangerous operations," said McCain in the 2000 video. For Romney, it is a clip from a 2002 gubernatorial debate. Speaking about Massachusetts' liberal abortion laws, Romney is seen on the video saying: "I will preserve them, I will protect them, I will enforce them." As for video airtime of the other (i.e. positive) kind, Romney is already on TV with a 60-second spot in select media markets in Iowa, New Hampshire, Florida, Michigan and South Carolina. THE DEMS: Since we gave the GOP two stories today on the P2008 race, it's only fair we also cover the Democrats. Congressman Dennis Kucinich this week became the first Democratic candidate to open a campaign office in New Hampshire. Also, Governor Bill Richardson said Tuesday his first act as President will be to close the controversial US detention camp at Guantanamo Naval Base in Cuba. IRAQ: British Prime Minister Tony Blair will announce Wednesday that his nation will begin the timed withdrawal of his nation's 7,100 troops from Iraq. The first 1,500 British troops will be withdrawn within weeks. The White House spin: "The United States shares the same goal of turning responsibility over to the Iraqi Security Forces and reducing the number of American troops in Iraq." Hmm ... so the White House agrees with the British plans ... and we're proposing to send 21,500 more US troops to Iraq. LIBBY: MSNBC reports that federal prosecutors are very interested in possibly cutting a deal with former VP Chief of Staff Lewis "Scooter" Libby if he is convicted this week on felony perjury charges. They'd reportedly be willing to offer Libby sentencing leniency in exchange for his cooperation with them in pursuing similar criminal charges against Vice President Dick Cheney. All of this is related to Cheney's office leaking information in 2003 that Valerie Plame was an deep cover CIA agent in retaliation for Plame's husband being a prominent Bush Administration critic.

GOOD NEWS FOR MITCH; RNC THREATENS FLORIDA; GEORGIA CD-10 SPECIAL UPDATE. INDIANA: Most political pundits see Governor Mitch Daniels (R) as the one of the most vulnerable gubernatorial incumbents in the nation for 2008. That said, Daniels got some great news this past weekend when the strongest potential Dem -- Indianapolis Mayor Bart Peterson -- announced he will not run for Governor next year. With Peterson out, the Democratic field is much thinner. State Senate Minority Leader Richard Young (D) is an announced candidate. Wealthy architectural firm owner and community activist Jim Schellinger (D) -- who is close to Peterson -- is expected to formally announce his candidacy soon. Former State House Speaker John Gregg is frequently mentioned as a possible candidate, but he told the Indianapolis Star he will not run if Schellinger jumps in. Gregg called Schellinger "a fresh face" and "the 800-pound gorilla" because of his ability to raise large amounts of money from the business community. "His decision makes mine a lot easier," said Gregg. P2008 CALENDAR: DNC threats to Florida legislators in recent weeks seemingly had little effect in derailing the Florida bill which would move the Sunshine State's 2008 Presidential primary to the Tuesday "one week after the New Hampshire primary." This would move Florida's primary to January 29, and break the RNC/DNC fixed schedule that bars all except a few designated states from holding primaries or caucuses before February 5. Since the Dems struck out in their attempt to kill the advancing legislation, RNC National Chair Mike Duncan stepped in this past weekend in a secret meeting in Florida with key state party leaders. The RNC message, according to a reliable Republican source: If Florida goes forward with a January 29 primary, the RNC will strip the state of many delegate spots, eliminate all the VIP floor and gallery passes that Florida party leaders traditionally distributed, give Florida terrible floor seating and hotel location at the convention, and bar state party leaders and GOP elected officials who are not officially elected delegates from access to the convention floor. State GOP leaders didn't like the message, but it is unclear if they have the clout (or the desire) to push the primary back to February 5. GEORGIA: Timing is everything, and State Senator Ralph Hudgens (R) clearly has no sense of it. As Congressman Charlie Norwood (R) lay dying of cancer two weeks ago, Hudgens released a preemptive statement saying he would run in the special election once Norwood died. Hudgens previously lost three races for the US House. Then, when Norwood died last week, Hudgens released another statement just a few hours later announcing his candidacy for the seat. That tasteless behavior clearly rubbed some GOP leaders the wrong way. State Senator Jim Whitehead (R), who smartly waited a few days to say anything, this week jumped into the race. State Representative Barry Fleming (R) and former CD-12 Congressman Max Burns (R) -- who both looked at the Norwood special election -- immediately endorsed Whitehead. Former University of George football coach Vince Dooley is yet again mentioned as a possible candidate -- as either a Dem or GOP candidate -- but don't look for him to really run.

GOP SENS BLOCK IRAQ DEBATE; HRC "NO APOLOGY"; STORMING THE CASTLE; LA GOV SWITCH? IRAQ #1: US Senate Republicans scored a strategic victory this weekend as they again succeeded in blocking debate on the non-binding resolution expressing opposition to the President's plan to send an additional 21,500 US soldiers to Iraq. Seven GOP Senators voted with the Democrats to invoke cloture and end the GOP filibuster, but surge opponents fell three votes short of the 60 votes needed to end the obstructionist tactics. IRAQ #2 (AND HILLARY): US Senator Hillary Clinton (D) continues her contortions trying to explain her 2002 vote in support of going to war with Iraq versus her rather ambiguous stance on the war today. A week ago she was unable to say to three words -- "I was wrong" -- when openly asked to do so at a New Hampshire event. The New York Times now reports Clinton has decided that she has no apology to make and does not plan to say those three words. "Several advisers, friends and donors said in interviews that they had urged her to call her vote a mistake in order to appease anti-war Democrats, who play a critical role in the nominating process. Yet Mrs. Clinton herself, backed by another faction, never wanted to apologize ... [Y]esterday morning Mrs. Clinton rolled out a new response to those demanding contrition: She said she was willing to lose support from voters rather than make an apology she did not believe in. 'If the most important thing to any of you is choosing someone who did not cast that vote or has said his vote was a mistake, then there are others to choose from,' Mrs. Clinton told an audience in Dover, N.H.," referring to Barack Obama and John Edwards. McCAIN: For all those Dems who like to view Senator John McCain (R) as a social moderate, check out what he said Sunday in South Carolina. Speaking before a crowd of 800 conservatives, the AP reports McCain said "I do not support Roe v. Wade. It should be overturned." He vowed to appoint only strict constructionists to the US Supreme Court. McCain later attended an event in the state promoting teenage sexual abstinence on Sunday evening. McCain was also endorsed Sunday by former Oklahoma Governor Frank Keating and former US Senator Phil Gramm. DELAWARE: The Wilmington News-Journal reports the DCCC wants to make Congressman Mike Castle (R), 67, a top national target for defeat next year. Castle is one of the more moderate GOP House members, but the Dems think the seat is ripe for a pickup with the state's strong Democratic lean. That, and they also noticed Castle's suffered a minor stroke last year -- although he seems perfectly healthy now. According the newspaper, the DCCC is trying to convince either Lieutenant Governor John Carney or State Treasurer Jack Markell to run against Castle. Both men are currently heading towards a very competitive primary next year in the open race for Governor. Markell confirmed the DCCC has met with him, but he says he still wants to run for Governor. Castle hasn't faced a strong opponent on the ballot since 1992. LOUISIANA: Veteran Bayou State political reporter John Maginnis wrote in the Business Journal that retired US Senator John Breaux (D) is "very interested" in running this year for Louisiana Governor -- but only if his friend, incumbent Kathleen Blanco (D), would be willing to quit the race in support of his candidacy. Otherwise, Breaux is supporting Blanco. In related news, Lieutenant Governor Mitch Landrieu (D) claims he's running for re-election this year when asked. However, Landrieu's newest campaign finance report lists the very vague "future election" as the office he is seeking. MISSISSIPPI: Evangelist Shawn O'Hara is the poster child of perennial candidates. He's run over the years as a Democrat, Republican, Reform and Independent candidate. And he's lost race after race after race. This year he's found a novel new way to score lots of defeats all at once: he's filed to simultaneously run in the Democratic primary this year for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, State Treasurer, State Agriculture Commissioner, Secretary of State and State Insurance Commissioner.

FREE SPEECH ZONE. What's with all the media buzz about how the new John McCain and Barack Obama campaign websites? Glowing media reports effuse that the sites are so amazing because "like Facebook and MySpace, users can create their own personal pages, albums and links networks of friends." Umm ... that's so four years ago! As apparently everyone has forgotten this fact: the Dean for America campaign website last time around had all of those features as of 2003. After the Dean campaign ended a year later, that online community evolved into Democracy for America's DFALink community (which still exists). Posted by Ron Gunzburger - 02.19.07 | Permalink |
GIBBONS CORRUPTION PROBE; COLEMAN LOOKS STRONG IN MN SEN POLL. GIBBONS: Recently inaugurated Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons (R) is the target of a new FBI corruption investigation. According to the Wall Street Journal, in probe is centered around allegations that Gibbons "accepted unreported gifts or payments from a company that was awarded secret military contracts when Mr. Gibbons served in Congress." During his ten years in Congress, Gibbons served on the House Intelligence and Armed Services Committees. MINNESOTA: A new KSTP-TV/SurveyUSA poll shows US Senator Norm Coleman (R) currently holding a sizable lead over his two most likely challengers. Coleman leads radio talk show host/humorist Al Franken (D) by a 57% to 35% vote. Coleman holds a 57-34 advantage over wealthy trial attorney and '00 candidate Mike Ciresi (D). Franken and Ciresi both announced their candidacies this week. State Representatives Joe Atkins (D) and Aaron Peterson (D) and college professor Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer (D) are also looking at the race. Congresswoman Betty McCollum (D) and Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak (D) have been frequently mentioned as possible challengers, but neither appears likely to enter the race. Posted by Ron Gunzburger - 02.16.07 | Permalink |
FREE SPEECH ZONE. Okay, a bunch of you inquired about the "Politics1 Canada" political site I've been building and wanted to know if it will mark the end of the current Politics1 site covering US politics. The answer: No, I have no plans to discontinue the current Politics1 website. I may try to add the Canadian component to the site under, perhaps, a sub-directory like http://canada.politics1.com (but I don't know how to configure that just yet) -- or may set up up at a new URL. Haven't decided yet. Posted by Ron Gunzburger - 02.16.07 | Permalink |

Team Fortress 2
Question from got_pills_here
How do I use the hd meet the team models?
What is the console command to use the HD Meet the Team character and weapon models?
6 years ago
Accepted Answer
Even better, if make an autoexec.cfg if you haven't yet. Go to the tf2 folder on your computer.
X:/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/[your steam name]/team fortress 2/tf/cfg
Create a file and add the following:
mp_usehwmmodels 1
mp_usehwmvcds 1
Save the file as autoexec.cfg, but make sure the filetype is .cfg and you don't accidentally make it autoexec.cfg.txt or something like that.
The autoexec will run itself everytime you load up tf2, so put in any other console commands that you want to always have.
6 years ago
Open the console by pressing the little ` key next to 1, and type the following lines:
mp_usehwmmodels 1
mp_usehwmvcds 1
If the console doesn't work, go to Options>Keyboard>Advanced and check "Enable Developer Console."

If it is ever reached, the current and any other artificial "peace agreement" will be illegitimate before it is ever signed because (1) all people living in Palestine regardless of religion, race, origin, etc. (hereinafter "All People of Palestine") were never given a choice on how they want their land to be governed, and (2) all contracts signed under duress are null and void.
The biggest problem in Palestine is that the Zionist regime never offered a choice to All People of Palestine on how they want to govern their land because the Zionist regime cannot exist as a democratic entity. If there was ever any democratic process in Palestine, Zionists would have been outvoted and the Zionist regime would have never existed. That is why the Zionist regime is the occupier because it does not offer choice (i.e. democracy), but instead imposes its regime (i.e. occupies). Imagine if Russians would simply occupy a town in the U.S. where they are in significant numbers and attempt to create a Russian state there without giving the rest of the Americans living there a choice. Imagine then if they would try to institute a "peace agreement" that would attempt to legitimize their occupation. The "peace agreement" would logically and legally be illegitimate because the Americans were not given a choice.
Under all countries' laws, any contract is null and void if it is signed under duress. The current Palestine "peace agreement" process reminds me of The Godfather movie where the mafia boss (i.e. the Zionist regime) made a guy "an offer he could not refuse" by placing a gun (i.e. Zionist conventional and nuclear arsenal) to his head and making him sign the contract. Like the mafia boss' offer, any "peace agreement" other than the choice for All People of Palestine is a crime, and the contract is legally null and void.
The bottom line is that All People of Palestine never wanted to divide their land into artificial two states the way the occupation and this "peace agreement" attempt to divide it. From the beginning of the Zionist regime to its unavoidable end, All People of Palestine and the region never wanted the Zionist regime and they do not want it even more after all the atrocities the Zionist regime committed. I just cannot believe how the Zionist regime can be so ignorant to think that this or any other "peace agreement" that does not allow people to choose how they want to be governed will last and ensure its people's survival. The Zionist regime fails to realize that no matter if it succeeds in muscling this "peace agreement" by unspeakable historic coercion tens of millions of moral people around the world will oppose it until it is corrected, and until justice and free choice prevail. Also, ever increasing number of Jewish people are realizing that Zionism is becoming a destructive force for them and are leading the global resistance to it.

Just days after Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt received a $30 million loan from Fox to cover payroll obligations, Major League Baseball announced today it is taking over the tyeam.
Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig says in a release that he will appoint a representative to oversee the "business and the day-to-day operations of the Club."
Selig's statement:
"Pursuant to my authority as Commissioner, I informed Los Angeles Dodgers owner Frank McCourt today that I will appoint a representative to oversee all aspects of the business and the day-to-day operations of the Club. I have taken this action because of my deep concerns regarding the finances and operations of the Dodgers and to protect the best interests of the Club, its great fans and all of Major League Baseball. My office will continue its thorough investigation into the operations and finances of the Dodgers and related entities during the period of Mr. McCourt's ownership. I will announce the name of my representative in the next several days.
The Dodgers have been one of the most prestigious franchises in all of sports, and we owe it to their legion of loyal fans to ensure that this club is being operated properly now and will be guided appropriately in the future."

Ongoing rise of petrol prices could be hard on the wallet; it influences people to select autos featuring substantial fuel economy. No matter how tough and powerful the Chevrolet Impala vehicle's engine device can be, possessing a damaged component part won't give you a bit of good. It is critical to make sure that your car contains a perfectly operating Chevrolet Impala EGR valve. Getting the proper EGR valve plays an important part if you want one's vehicle to emit minimal amounts of dangerous gases. Your automobile can lessen emission quantities and keep up with the state requirements by using a useful EGR valve.
A tiny level of air comes via the EGR valve then when this mixes together with the fuel and air combination in the chamber, the actual circulation system is completed. If you want to get the greatest benefits in efficiency, it is important to have this EGR valve for Chevrolet Impala maintained and inspected once in a while. A frequent indication of a busted Chevrolet Impala EGR valve is usually rough idle state that can bring about build up of petrol remains in the engine. Valve knock is a symptom of a lousy EGR valve and occurs when the unburned mixture of fuel and air gets subjected to pressure and heat and leads to wear and tear Chevrolet Impala engine devices.
Enjoy the most from your car by simply doing consistent check-ups on the replacement parts, along with the Chevrolet Impala EGR valve. You'll be able to replace damaged components by purchasing units right here with Parts Train. You will not have to hunt any further simply because we have got one of the most comprehensive parts catalog in the United States. Fascinating products are waiting for you, most of them manufactured and also offered by well-known industry companies including Pierburg, Standard, and OE Aftermarket.

How to decide who should take parental leave by Ryan Derousseau @FortuneMagazine January 22, 2015, 5:14 AM EDT E-mail Tweet Facebook Google Plus Linkedin Share icons If there's one stereotype about Millennials that may have some truth to it, it's they have had to wait. They've been slower than previous generations to take full-time jobs, buy their own homes, or get married. Yet one by one, Millennials have started to reach these milestones. The next one on the horizon? Children. It's time. More than 71% of Millennials are between the ages of 20 and 34. Even if the average age of the American first-time mother is creeping up from the 2009 level of 25, the last time it was measured, the Millennial generation has reached its prime baby-making years. While some surveys of college graduates indicate that this generation doesn't want kids, others, like Bentley University's "Millennials in the Workplace" study, show that 57% of working Millennials consider being a good parent as very important. Unlike previous generations, Millennial men have stood out in their willingness to take on household duties, split childcare responsibilities, and even sacrifice a few years of their career to be a house-husband while their spouse heads to work. The number of stay-at-home dads has nearly doubled from 1989 levels to 2 million, according to a Pew Research report released in 2014. And 21% of those stay-at-home dads decided to be home to care for the children, as opposed to simply being stuck in the house due to a lack of a job or being ill. Stay-at-home dads by choice accounted for 5% of the total in 1989. Meanwhile, only 20% of mothers who have a working husband choose to stay at home, which is near all-time lows that have only shifted slightly since the early 1990s. It's no longer assumed that mom will stay with the kids all day while dad heads to the office. For families who want to have a parent at home to care for the children, this raises a dilemma: How do you decide which parent should continue working and who should stay home? First, you need to make sure that both you and your spouse agree that one of you should quit at all. If you both want to work, then there are ways to manage it. Jessica DeGroot, the director of The Third Path, which helps parents find ways to negotiate flextime, suggests seeing if you both can work four days a week at the office and one day at home. You will likely have to take the initiative and ask for a flexible schedule, since companies don't usually voluntarily make such offers. "Right now, most organizations aren't really getting it," says DeGroot. "What they get is the courage to ask for it [flextime]." If you can show that you're able to be just as productive during the week with the more flexible schedule, most companies will allow you to give it a try, says DeGroot. If you're thinking of having one person stay at home, make sure you start having the conversation with your significant other long before kids arrive. That's not what happened for Paul Gilbride and his wife. Twelve years ago, while working as a CPA, he and his wife discussed over martinis whether or not they were raising their five and three year-old kids like they had imagined they would. When it was clear they both felt as if the children were getting the short end of the stick because of their careers, the two decided it was best one person stayed at home for a nine-month trial. Paul didn't enjoy his job at the time so he nominated himself. "We agreed that I would not juggle anything the first nine months," says Gilbride. "If I felt like I needed something to fulfill me then I certainly would have entertained it." Gilbride's situation was unusual in that both he and his wife made above-average livings, but it wasn't odd that he chose to stay at home because his wife was making a slightly higher salary than he was. Brad Harrington, executive director of the Boston College Center for Work & Family, says that typically men who stay at home with the children are often teachers or social workers, while the mom heading to work is an executive or doctor. This doesn't mean that the person who makes less money should automatically get relegated to domestic care. "Who has the most appropriate disposition for the kids?" says Harrington. "And who won't get bored by routine aspects of cleaning the house and doing laundry?" You need these characteristics to handle the day-to-day of home life. It's also important to examine whose career would be punished most by taking a multi-year break. In Gilbride's case, if he took a year off, he would have fallen behind, but he reasoned that he could have found a job again at or near the level he exited from. But his wife's career would have likely suffered from a lengthy sabbatical, as she worked at a fast-growing healthcare company. Gilbride took to home life rather quickly. He volunteered at his kids' private school, helping with accounting, and now he coaches prospective stay-at-home dads on what to expect if they decide to take the plunge. "Any time you interrupt your career, especially in Corporate America, you have to assume you're going to take a couple steps back," warns Gilbride. "The longer you are away, the further back you're going to have to start." A stay-at-home dad can do wonders for a working mom's career. Gilbride's wife rose to an executive position at the health care firm. In a survey of families where the mom worked while the dad stayed at home, the Boston College Center for Work & Family found that women had more flexibility to do the tasks needed—hold late meetings, stay long hours—to rise up the corporate ladder faster. "The time they could invest in their work and their peace of mind increased as had their career advancement," says Harrington. Of course, they're still mothers. Many expressed residual guilt as their "own parental expectations," weighed on them, added Harrington. You can always reverse course, though, if one parent feels dissatisfied. At least now, many parents have more options than their parents and grandparents did.
New dads confront uphill battle for paternity leave by Ryan Derousseau @FortuneMagazine June 10, 2014, 11:30 AM EDT E-mail Tweet Facebook Google Plus Linkedin Share icons With Father's Day approaching, dads are starting to get some much-needed attention. The Obama administration on Monday convened the first-ever White House event focused on working dads and the impact of corporate policies like paternity leave and workplace flexibility. Just a few decades ago, new fathers were often barred from the delivery room when their wives gave birth. But dads today expect to be fully present, not just for the big moment but also for the days, months, and years to follow. This subjects them to the same work-family conflicts that working mothers have experienced for decades: juggling responsibilities at home and at work simultaneously. Only 12% of U.S. employers surveyed by the Society for Human Resource Management offer paid paternity leave, a stark contrast to the 70 other countries that have legislated paid paternity leave. Some dads can cobble together sick leave and vacation time to be present for the days after a new child joins the family. Those who take time off from work rave about the opportunity. "It was a fabulous experience and I couldn't imagine not taking it," says Marc Carlson, 35, a Detroit-based senior manager at Ernst & Young, who took six weeks of paid leave after the birth of his baby Rebecca last year. "It was a great time for me to bond with my new daughter and feel that I was playing a critical role in my family transition." Rebecca ended up having food allergies and colic, making his hands-on parenting all the more important. Carlson took two weeks off immediately after the baby arrived to be home with his wife and the remaining four weeks after his wife's maternity leave ended. "When I was there on my own was the highlight of my year," he says, praising his colleagues, supervisor, and employer for not interrupting his time at home with calls or emails. Some dads encounter negative repercussions for taking paternity leave. Famously, New York Mets second baseman Daniel Murphy became the subject of critical headlines and radio talk show vitriol after he skipped the first two games of the season to be with his wife in Florida for the birth of their first child. "When Noah asks me one day what was it like when I was born," Murphy said at the White House event, "it's going to go so much farther that I'm the one who cut his umbilical cord. Long after they tell me I'm not good enough to play baseball anymore, I'll be a father and I'll be a husband. I wanted to be there for my wife and my son." Research by Jennifer L. Berdahl, an associate professor at the University of Toronto, found that men who cared for their children more than the norm experienced workplace mistreatment. At the White House event, University of Oregon sociologist Scott Coltrane said a longitudinal study of 12,000 individuals found men suffered lower lifetime wages to a similar degree as women when they took time away from work to care for children, whether as leave or as a part-time schedule. Two weeks seems to be a safe length of paternity leave before men grow concerned they might face blowback, according to Brad Harrington, executive director of the Boston College Center for Work and Family. That's the average length of paternity leave used, favored by 39% of dads, according to a new report from the center, which surveyed 1,029 fathers from 286 different employers. A majority of the responses came from nine companies that are members of the center, meaning the data pool may reflect a more progressive and family-friendly set of companies than the norm. Indeed, 67% of the dads surveyed had access to paid paternity leave, less than the 75% in the Working Mother "Best Companies" list but greater than the national average reported by SHRM. "There is still in many people's minds the expectation that taking more than a week or more than two weeks might not be appropriate. They might not be seen as committed to the workplace," Harrington said during a conference call with journalists last week. He discussed his research at the White House on Monday, after remarks from Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, Labor Secretary Thomas Perez, and chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers Jason Furman. A whopping 99% of men Harrington surveyed felt that companies should offer paid leave to new dads, says Karyn Twaronite, a partner at Ernst & Young, which sponsored the research. Nearly all Ernst & Young employees eligible for paid leave have taken it, and the firm considers it important for retention, productivity, and engagement. The survey found that 89% of men would consider paid paternity leave important if they were looking to move to a new employer and considering having a child. But even a majority (88%) of those who received no paid leave took time off, the report found. Three-quarters of fathers would prefer the flexibility to take the time off as needed, rather than immediately after the child's birth, Harrington says. Jonathan Keane, 36, took five days of paid leave from his job as director of customer service at communications technology firm Bandwidth, when his son Henry was born earlier this year. "It made a huge difference at home," says Keane, who's based in Raleigh, N.C. Thinking back to when his two-year old Carter was born, when he worked at a different company, he recalls not feeling fully present despite it being one of the happiest days of his life. "Some of me was still feeling the pressure from having to check in at work," he says. Richard Ellenson, a Concord, Calif.-based technical editor for a government contractor, plans to take five weeks off when his wife gives birth, any day now. Because he's been at the company less than a year, he doesn't qualify for employer-paid leave, but California's family leave program will cover 50% of his pay. At the White House event, Furman noted that more than 90% of California employers surveyed reported no problems implementing the leave program. "I am very comfortable taking off this time thanks to my supervisor's full support," he says. "You have your whole life to work, but you don't have your child's first waking moments forever."

Fatwa No : 87568 |
Shaving the neck area and below the chin and jaw line |
Fatwa Date : Rabee' Al-Awwal 4, 1425 / 24-4-2004 |
I know you cannot shave the beard, but what about the neck area, below the chin and jaw line?
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.
The scholars defined the beard as being the hair that grows on the cheeks and chin.
Thus, the hair that grows on the neck is not considered as a part of the beard that is forbidden to shave.
Al Nawawi said in Al Majmou' that Imam Ahmad said: 'It is acceptable to shave from his beard what is underneath the pharynx.' He also mentioned another opinion which is of the view that it is disliked.
Allah knows best.

Bravo, Dzimtry Koub. You won the Internet.
The FK Trakai striker scored on a header in a Lithuanian league game this week, then ran into the empty stands, sat down and applauded his own goal.
The casualness/audacity of Koub's celebration overshadows the goal itself. Maybe his creative celebration will encourage more fans to come to the games. Koub's goal earned FK Trakai a 1-1 tie against league leader Zalgiris.

The Mississippi women's basketball program has self-imposed a postseason ban for this season after the dismissal of head coach Adrian Wiggins and two assistant coaches on Oct. 20.
Wiggins and the two assistants - Kenya Landers and Michael Landers - were fired after a school investigation found academic and recruiting misconduct. Two Ole Miss players were also deemed ineligible.
Assistant coach Brett Frank has been named the interim coach for this season.
A release from the university says the ban includes the Southeastern Conference tournament and any other postseason invitations. The NCAA is also investigating the program, and the school says ''details of the additional penalties will be announced at the appropriate time.''

Titan: Over a Torrent Sea (SPOILERS)
View Single Post
February 22 2009, 02:50 PM
Re: Titan: Over a Torrent Sea
Thrawn wrote:
By this point, I have some pretty high expectations for a CLB novel; I more or less expect it to make me reevaluate some important aspect of myself and the universe, awe and delight me with some kind of idea I'd have never even considered, create flawless and moving character arcs for several main characters, and take such an irrepressible delight in the wonder of the universe that it's effectively impossible to put down.
And, as usual, dude managed to completely exceed my expectations. It's pretty absurd by this point, really; aside from GTTS, every CLB book I've read has left me going "WOW! I mean, I knew it was going to be GOOD, but not, like THAT good!" and mumbling stupidly for a while. The end of this one even made me well up a little. No actual tears, but it was close. I was genuinely moved.
Wow. I'm welling up a little just reading this review. I'm immensely flattered.
More specifically, in a lot of ways, I think this might've actually been the first Titan book to genuinely live up to the series' premise of exploring the conflicts and revelations from having such an alien crew.
Interesting you should say that, because I was trying to move past the whole "Ooh, look how diverse we are!" thing, just take it for granted that the crew had gotten used to that diversity and that conflicts would come more out of individuals (albeit reflecting their own distinct histories and heritages) than species differences.
But I guess what you're saying is that the book really gets into exploring the alien characters' worldviews and mentalities, rather than dwelling on their differences.
For the first time, our biggest spotlight character - Aili - is one of the extremely alien and different ones, and Cethente and Ree put in fascinating appearances as well. Cethente's diving sequence, in particular, is one of my favorite Trek moments ever. But really the heart and soul of this novel is Aili's journey, and it became so much more interesting and affecting than I thought that character would've ever been... and she was one of my favorites to begin with!
Glad you liked those. I enjoyed developing those characters and their cultures. I actually didn't plan on using Cethente at first, but I needed some crewmember capable of handling that dive and Cethente seemed the best choice. I'm quite pleased with what I came up with.
It's also interesting that the book skips over the scientific part of finding The Solution at the end completely, and just deals with the cultural impact; it's as if the fact of science producing solutions is never even in doubt, just the people's willingness to accept them.
Admittedly, it's more that I didn't have a real-science solution for that. The basic crisis came more from Treknobabble energy fields than from real science, and so the solution was pretty much going to be applied handwavium in any case. Rather than think up a couple of paragraphs of that, I just said "We've devised a field" and focused on the more concrete science and logistics of the deployment.
And the way the squale culture was created to be able to underline that moral without them seeming backward was similarly fantastic. The work that went into crafting that society was remarkable.
Thanks, but this is one of those times where it looks like I planned something that I actually didn't. This book is largely based on an unsold spec novel I wrote over a decade ago, and in that version, there was no technological fix that the ocean-planet aliens (more dolphinlike there) had to accept; their fear of technology was just an excuse to keep the leading lady separate from her crew for long enough that she needed to undergo the change that's proposed for Aili and Riker here.
So really the work of creating the squales' society and environment was about half done back then and half done in the writing of this book. Which helped me do a richer job of worldbuilding than I probably could've within the bounds of my deadline for this book alone.
My one big complaint with Titan is that this is now the sixth book in a row to be about profound, soul-searching topics, and I just have to say, it'd be fantastic if these guys could have just a little fun every once in a while. I liked the way this novel started calmly, but even then, it turned out to be a Giant Soul-Searching Epic for everyone involved. Can we visit a planet where the most valuable part of their culture is stand up comedy, or something? All six of the last Titan books (including Destiny) have been absolute genius, but in a row, it's getting to be a little draining. I'm glad I didn't read them all at once, or by this point I think my brain would've exploded. In all fairness, Torvig is always a breath of fresh air, and he gets two hilarious scenes in this one (one as he dons a new mechanical structure complete with fins; two as he decides the best solution to an immediate problem would be spending three weeks making the transporters create wormholes), but it would've been nice to see a bit more of that. There's plenty of humor, but very little... lightheartedness.
I'm surprised to hear that, since I was trying to make this a lighter, fun change-of-pace book after the weightiness of
. It dealt with some pretty serious character baggage, but I tried to leaven it with humor and avoid getting too dark.
