The Environmental Protection Agency is reaching out to homeowners with deep wells in the Hopewell Precision Superfund site in the hopes of curing a problem that has existed for more than a decade.
The agency wants to test the drinking water of any homeowners who may have dug wells at least 200 feet deep in recent years.
Some homeowners have done so to access uncontaminated water that would pass the town-mandated well tests whenever a home is sold. ...

Respiratory psychophysiology in hypertension research. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 11530718 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The pathogenesis of hypertension results from an interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Behavioral factors might participate in sodium sensitive forms of hypertension via a cascade of physiological responses triggered by conditioned inhibition of breathing. When an individual decreases ventilation sufficient to increase pCO2 but not sufficient to activate chemoreceptor reflexes, plasma pH decreases transiently to stimulate a renal mechanism that can expand plasma volume via sodium retention. The combination of high resting pCO2 and high sodium intake elevates resting blood pressure in laboratory animals and healthy human participants. In the natural environment, this mechanism seems to be more important for the development of hypertension in women than in men, perhaps due to differential expression of anger and aggression. Studies are needed to clarify the role of breathing pattern in individual differences in resting pCO2 and the effects of breathing interventions on salt sensitivity and sodium sensitive forms of hypertension. |

Chief officers for both the Mi-Wuk/Sugar Pine Fire Protection District and Twain Harte Fire and Rescue Department came to a handshake agreement last February to combine forces when responding to calls, while at the same time allowing each to maintain administrative and financial autonomy.
"We're maintaining our individuality in reference to our district," said Mi-Wuk/Sugar Pine Fire Chief Randy Miller. "However, we're combining operationally to better serve the community."
What this means is that residents in both districts can expect more than double the manpower to show up at each call for service.
Now, each district keeps three firefighters on duty at all times, which includes one paid captain and two interns who are paid stipends that can range from $600 to $1,200 each month. Both engine companies respond to all calls in the two districts as part of the agreement.
"The fact that fire doubles in size every minute makes time of the essence," said Miller. "Being able to throw sufficient manpower on a fire can make the outcome more beneficial."
The effort toward "operational integration" between the two independent districts is unprecedented in the county, Miller noted.
One of the toughest challenges local districts have faced over the years has been the recruitment, training and retainment of skilled volunteer firefighters, Miller said, so the new pact was formed to help address the issue.
A 2010 study of the county's fire and first responder system found that the number of active volunteer firefighters had dropped from more than 200 decades ago to 74. The study found that the decrease led to less support at paid fire stations, diminished response at volunteer fire stations and the closure of several volunteer stations.
Twain Harte Fire and Rescue Chief Todd McNeal was hired by the Twain Harte Community Services District last October to fill the vacant position left open since 2007, and quickly identified the department's staffing issues.
He later convinced the district's board of directors to expend an additional $20,000 each year for an internship program with firefighters from Columbia College. It's now a coordinated program with the Mi-Wuk/Sugar Pine station.
"The number of active volunteers has dropped over the years and relying on that system will put you behind the curve," McNeal said.
But the cooperation between the two departments goes beyond just emergency response.
Prior to McNeal's hiring, the Twain Harte district received a federal grant worth $225,000 for the purchase of a new fire engine. McNeal decided to lease an older six-seater, four-wheel drive engine that would have otherwise collected dust to the Mi-Wuk/Sugar Pine district, which was in need of a engine for winter operations.
"For no impact to their budget whatsoever, they get an engine and it's just a phone call away when I need it," McNeal said.
The leased engine is now emblazoned with the emblems of both departments and a quote that reads: "Community protection through cooperating agencies."
The Tuolumne County Civil Grand Jury in its 2011-2012 report provided an update on recommendations for improving the county's fire services made the previous year.
The jury suggested in 2011 to consolidate the nine full-time staffed departments and roughly 10 volunteer fire stations in the county, but that recommendation was met with resistance.
In the latest report, the grand jury said it wouldn't further discuss consolidation but found "areas where progress is being made," citing the partnership efforts at the Mi-Wuk/Sugar Pine and Twain Harte fire departments.
"They schedule together and share assets which include management," the report stated. "The departments involved believe this collaboration results not only in financial savings but a more effective and efficient response to major incidents when both departments are summoned."
McNeal acknowledged the potential service improvements a countywide system could provide, but resolving the issues among the independent districts to pave the way for consolidation would likely take long time.
"There's no question that if we went to a countywide service then the services provided would be greater, but we didn't want to wait," he said. "We wanted to perfect change right now."

Studies of periodic ferroelectric domains in KTiOPO4 using high-resolution x-ray scattering and diffraction imaging
UNSPECIFIED. (1999) Studies of periodic ferroelectric domains in KTiOPO4 using high-resolution x-ray scattering and diffraction imaging. PHYSICAL REVIEW B, 59 (22). pp. 14259-14264. ISSN 0163-1829
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
A periodically domain-inverted KTiOPO4 crystal, in which inverted ferroelectric domains were produced by electric-field poling, has been studied using high-resolution x-ray scattering and diffraction imaging techniques. The degree of perfection of domain inversion as well as the periodic structure has been revealed in high-spatial-resolution images, and the periodic contrast is shown to arise largely from lattice distortions produced in the poled regions. The q(parallel to) dependence of intensity scattered from the domain-inverted structure can be described by a two-component line shape, one with a sharp nearly-pure-Gaussian line, the other with a broad pseudo-voigt-function profile. A high-angular-resolution method has been combined to elucidate the origin of the two-component profile. The diffuse scattering of the crystal truncation rod along q(perpendicular to) is observed to follow a power law q(perpendicular to)(-gamma) with gamma similar to 2.29 +/- 0.03 after poling compared with an average value of 2.05 +/- 0.03 before poling. Discussions of the electric-field poling and its consequence for the domain-inverted structure are presented in terms of the results of x-ray measurements. [S0163-1829(99)09921-X].

dc.description.abstract | Objectives: The primary aims of this study were to estimate the proportion of SnPTB in HIV co-infected patients, to identify the clinical, demographic, and radiographic factors associated with SnPTB, and to compare TB treatment outcomes and survival rates between patients diagnosed with SnPTB and SpPTB. Methods: A retrospective cohort of TB/HIV co-infected patients who started TB treatment between 2005 and 2010 under the TB control Program at posts, health centers, hospitals, or at one of five reference hospitals providing care for HIV-infected patients under the Ministry of Health system in three regions of the Peruvian Amazon. Results: Of the 332 patients with TB and HIV co-infection, 220 patients were included in this study. 56.8% patients were diagnosed with SnPTB and in the multivariate model, three factors were associated with a diagnosis of SnPTB: concurrent opportunistic infection (OR=4.8, 95%CI: 1.4-16.4), and alveolar infiltrate (OR=7.9, 95%CI: 1.9-31.8) or miliary infiltrate (OR=29.3, 95%CI: 4.3-199.7) on chest radiography. Forty-five percent of patients had an unsuccessful. Treatment at a level II or III health facility (OR=4.8, 95%CI: 2.1-10.8), and a history of addictive habits (OR=5.7, 95%CI: 1.8-18.2) were associated with increased likelihood of unsuccessful TB treatment outcome. Compared to SpPTB, SnPTB was associated with an 85% increased risk of death at one year (HR=1.85, 95%CI: 1.1-3.24), after adjusting for CD4 cell count, completed treatment, age, concurrent opportunistic infection, chronic pre-existing conditions, and use of HAART. The majority of deaths (74%) occurred while receiving TB treatment. Among patients with SnPTB, the median delay between diagnosis and initiation of TB treatment was two days (IQR=0-5). In the multivariate analysis, treatment delay was higher among patients with a history of addictive habits (OR=3.6, 95%CI: 1.1-12.1) and in patients living farther from the health facility. Conclusions: More aggressive TB surveillance and treatment monitoring activities should be routinely performed in smear negative patients. Further studies are needed to develop and evaluate innovative and inexpensive methods to ensure that patients living distant from health facilities or affected by alcohol abuse receive appropriate monitoring and therapy.

Altar of the Emeralds
this wiki
Redirected from Emerald Altar
- Not to be confused with Altar Emerald, the final Zone of Sonic Advance 3.
The Altar of the Emeralds, also known as the Pillar (ピラー Pirā?) in early Japanese materials, is a place on Angel Island where the Master Emerald is kept and guarded. It is a mythical ruin surrounded by seven columns which are designed to hold the other Chaos Emeralds. The altar made its formal debut in Sonic Adventure, but it was also mentioned in the Japanese manuals of Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Chaotix. In Sonic & Knuckles, a similar structure is seen in Hidden Palace Zone, where the Master Emerald teleported to safety after the Death Egg crash-landed on the island. A reconstruction of the altar appeared within the Space Colony ARK in Sonic Adventure 2, having been designed by Professor Gerald Robotnik.
Video games
Sonic Adventure shows the history between the Knuckles Clan and the eight Emeralds through the use of flashbacks. The Emeralds were housed and guarded by Chaos, a Chao mutated into a water spirit who is considered their first guardian. He guarded the eight Emeralds for an unknown (albeit presumably long) period of time, and the power of the Emeralds was passed through oral tradition.
When the nearby tribe attacked the altar in order to fuel their expansion of conquest, Chaos was enraged and used the seven lesser Emeralds to wipe out most of the tribe. He was then challenged by his gentle friend Tikal and sealed within the large Master Emerald along with Tikal herself. The tribe's territory miraculously lifted into the sky through the sheer power of the same huge Emerald. The Emeralds became known as Chaos Emeralds, and Chaos himself became known as the God of Destruction. The remaining echidnas swore to protect the Emerald so that a tragedy such as this would never happen again. The only living descendant of this lost civilization is Knuckles the Echidna, who is determined to guard the Master Emerald and protect Angel Island at all costs.
Archie Comics
In the Archie Comics, the Brotherhood of Guardians is a fictional organization of anthropomorphic, humanoid echidnas in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. They are a group of Echidnas who protect Mobius from a secret facility known as Haven and the Master Emerald. They are also Knuckles the Echidna's predecessors and family in the title of Guardian. The Brotherhood's existence is secret to all but a few individuals, including their arch-enemies, the Dark Legion. The Emerald Altar was originally in a small cave but then became a small island off the coast of Angel Island during the battle against Super Sonic and the second Enerjak and now has a small bridge connecting them.

So, did I mention that I was one of the winners of Martha's 2009 Cutest Cupcake Contest? I did? Oh right, here. Well, I'll boast again. I was one of the winners of Martha's 2009 Cutest Cupcake Contest, uh huh. And I won her cupcake book and have been wanting to try out a recipe.
Now, I'm mostly a baking purist because I grew up in a purist baking household. I would not could not ever dare to use anything but butter when baking. Or real sugar. And I would not could not ever dare to use a cookie mix or a brownie mix. But, alas, I heartily use cake mixes. I risk this hypocrisy because cakes and cupcakes from scratch are often dry and simply not as good as the cake mix (though I would not could not ever use canned frosting). So I had my skepticism about pulling a random recipe from the cupcake book. Foolish me. These brown butter pumpkin cupcakes from Martha are moist, soft, just the right amount of sweet and absolutely scrumptious.
pumpkin brown-butter cupcakes
{adapted from Martha Stewart's Cupcakes}
3/4 cup butter (plus more for tins)
1 2/3 cups all-purposes flour (plus more for tins)
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1 cup canned pumpkin puree (I use Libby's)
1 cup packed brown sugar (I use dark brown, Martha uses light)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
Preheat oven to 325 F. Butter and flour muffin tins (I made a dozen minis and 6 large). Melt butter over medium-low heat in saucepan, swirling pan occasionally, until golden brown. Skim foam from top and pour butter into a bowl to stop the cooking, let cool. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and spices. In another bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugars, eggs and brown-butter mixture. Add flour mixture and whisk until just combined.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt 1/2 cup unsalted butter, swirling pan occasionally, until nut-brown in color, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into bowl (leave sediment behind). Add 2 cups sifted confectioner's sugar, 2 tsp. vanilla extract and 2 tblsp. milk to the butter and stir until smooth. Add more milk if necessary.

The Golden Road | Lucy Maud Montgomery | |
Peg Bowen Comes To Church |
Page 1 of 6 |
When those of us who are still left of that band of children who played long years ago in the old orchard and walked the golden road together in joyous companionship, foregather now and again in our busy lives and talk over the events of those many merry moons-- there are some of our adventures that gleam out more vividly in memory than the others, and are oftener discussed. The time we bought God's picture from Jerry Cowan--the time Dan ate the poison berries--the time we heard the ghostly bell ring--the bewitchment of Paddy--the visit of the Governor's wife--and the night we were lost in the storm--all awaken reminiscent jest and laughter; but none more than the recollection of the Sunday Peg Bowen came to church and sat in our pew. Though goodness knows, as Felicity would say, we did not think it any matter for laughter at the time--far from it. It was one Sunday evening in July. Uncle Alec and Aunt Janet, having been out to the morning service, did not attend in the evening, and we small fry walked together down the long hill road, wearing Sunday attire and trying, more or less successfully, to wear Sunday faces also. Those walks to church, through the golden completeness of the summer evenings, were always very pleasant to us, and we never hurried, though, on the other hand, we were very careful not to be late. This particular evening was particularly beautiful. It was cool after a hot day, and wheat fields all about us were ripening to their harvestry. The wind gossiped with the grasses along our way, and over them the buttercups danced, goldenly-glad. Waves of sinuous shadow went over the ripe hayfields, and plundering bees sang a freebooting lilt in wayside gardens. |

Health Services Administration: Graduated and gone
After 45 years, Sheppard program moves to San Antonio
Today's graduation of the Health Services Administration course at Sheppard Air Force Base's 882nd Training Group marks the end of a 45-year chapter in medical service corps training at Sheppard.
The class is one of the last medical training courses to move to Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio as part of a recommendation from the 2005 Base Reallignment and Closure Round to consolidate medical training across the military service branches.
Maj. Sean Marshall, director of Medical Service Corps training at Sheppard, said the transition will allow for cost savings and will reduce redundancy among the different branches, but is definitely bittersweet.
"It's 45 years we've been here, it's incredible ... I've been here at Sheppard for three years. What a wonderful community. They literally take care of us," Marshall said. "This will provide a lot of cost savings and it's going to be very beneficial to the services to train jointly."
Marshall said the health services administration schoolhouse has been open at Sheppard since 1966 and has trained more than 5,100 medical service corps officers in 147 classes. Officers train for four weeks in the initial course and spend two weeks learning more about their area of expertise, such as handling administration duties at hospitals, resource management, information services, readiness to deploying medical personnel, Tricare operations, managing group practices and supplying the equipment needed by medical personnel.
"I like to refer to our docs like our pilots in the Air Force," Marshall said. "We've got to support the docs so they can treat the patient. Our job is incredibly important. We take care of the paperwork and the equipment, and if you can't get the equipment to the doctor, they can't take care of the patient."
Second Lt. Aaron Valentz said he felt honored and privileged to be part of the last class to graduate at Sheppard. He said he will be working in Tricare operations and patient administration in North Carolina.
"It feels like we're a part of history, and it feels like a privilege and an honor," Valentz said.
Ret. Brig. Gen. Don Wagner, guest speaker for today's graduation and deputy commander at the health services administration schoolhouse from 1973 to 1975, said he hopes to impart a few final thoughts for the graduates of today's class.
"I want to do three things ... I want to do the minimal amount of reminiscing so that they can understand the true importance of what's going on here. They are new to town and new to the Air Force medical service corps. While philosophically they understand it, I'm not sure they appreciate the emotion of it. I also want to talk a bit about the shoulders on which they're standing, the folks that have gone before — there were over 5,000 students and 147 classes since 1966.
"And finally I want to leave some thoughts about continuing to perform with excellence and confidence in their field," Wagner said. "There have been literally thousands who have come through Wichita Falls-every nurse, every doctor, every administrator in the Air Force came through here."
He said even though the impact on Wichita Falls is considerable, the move to consolidate medical training will not only save money but will also provide more efficient training for all medical personnel.
"There's little value to having separate programs for all the services, so this consolidation will be economical as well as more efficient," Wagner said.

Nausea and Vomiting, Age 12 and Older - Prevention
Food poisoning
Food poisoning is one of the most common causes of nausea and vomiting in adults. To prevent food poisoning:
- Follow the 2-40-140 rule. Don't eat meats, dressing, salads, or other foods that have been kept between 40 °F (4.4 °C) and 140 °F (60 °C) for more than 2 hours.
- Be especially careful with large cooked meats, such as your holiday turkey, which require a long time to cool. Thick parts of the meat may stay over 40 °F (4.4 °C) long enough to allow bacteria to grow.
- Use a thermometer to check your refrigerator. It should be between 34 °F (1.1 °C) and 40 °F (4.4 °C).
- Defrost meats in the refrigerator or the microwave, not on the kitchen counter.
- Wash your hands, cutting boards, and countertops often. After handling raw meats, especially chicken, wash your hands and utensils before preparing other foods.
- The U.S.
Department of Agriculture (USDA) recommends that you reheat meats to over
140 °F (60 °C) for at least 10
minutes to destroy bacteria. Even then the bacteria may not be destroyed.
- Cook all meats to the recommended temperature. See how to cook foods to prevent food poisoning.
- Cook hamburger well done. Cook chicken until the juices run clear.
- Cover meats and poultry during microwave cooking to heat the surface of the meat.
- Do not eat raw eggs or uncooked sauces made with eggs.
- Keep party foods on ice.
- When you eat out, avoid rare and uncooked meats or seafood. Eat salad bar and deli items before they get warm.
- Discard any cans or jars with bulging lids or leaks.
- Follow home canning and freezing instructions carefully. Contact your county agricultural extension office for advice.
- If you think that food may have been stored in your refrigerator for too long, don't take the chance. Throw it out.
For more information, see the topic Food Poisoning and Safe Food Handling.
Viral illness
Increase your chance of staying healthy by:
- Washing your hands often, especially during winter months when viral illnesses are most common.
- Keeping your hands away from your nose, eyes, and mouth. Viruses are most likely to enter your body through these areas.
- Eating a healthy and balanced diet.
- Getting regular exercise.
- Not smoking. Smoking irritates the lining of your nose, sinuses, and lungs, which may increase your risk for problems from a viral illness.
You can help prevent influenza by getting immunized with an influenza vaccine each year, as soon as it's available. The "flu shot" is given by injection. This form of the vaccine prevents most cases of the flu.
Even if a flu shot does not prevent the flu, the vaccine can make your flu symptoms milder and decrease the risk of problems from the flu.

From student events and academic activities to the performing arts and athletic competitions, @UD is the campus hub where you can find everything happening at the University of Delaware.
The University of Delaware, whose faculty includes a number of prominent scholars on issues related to slavery and abolition, has designated a special Emancipation Semester this spring to mark the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's proclamation.
Hosted by the Department of History, the interdisciplinary events include a workshop series with presentations by UD and guest experts, a themed campus-wide course and lecture series, an exhibition at the UD Library from the Lincoln Collection, a symposium on April 6 and a final lecture and research colloquium April 18-19. All events are designed to explore the domestic and global legacies of slavery and of the Emancipation Proclamation issued by President Abraham Lincoln on Jan. 1, 1863.
The Emancipation Semester will include the following events.
The regular History Department Workshop series of lunchtime talks will have an emancipation focus this semester. The lectures, which are free and open to the public, meet Tuesdays from 12:30-1:45 p.m. beginning Feb. 12, in 203 Munroe Hall. The first speaker will be Peter Kolchin, Henry Clay Reed Professor of History at UD, discussing "The Other Emancipation of the 1860s: Freeing Russia's Serfs."
Among the other workshop presenters will be Brett Gadsden, associate professor of African American studies at Emory University, whose talk on Feb. 26 will focus on Delaware and desegregation. Formerly of Wilmington, Del., Gadsden will also speak that evening at UD at a seminar for Delaware teachers. For a complete schedule of the workshop series, visit the website.
The one-credit "Research on Race, Ethnicity and Culture" course, offered by the departments of Women and Gender Studies and of Black American Studies, will have an emancipation theme this spring. Sessions meet on Wednesdays at 12:20 p.m., with the first speaker on Feb. 13, in 223 Gore Hall. Those not registered for credit may still attend any or all of the sessions.
Speakers will discuss a variety of topics including emancipation in Brazil, the role of African American women in the legacy of emancipation, the Supreme Court's Brown v. Board of Education decision, and African American writers and military veterans. For a complete schedule, visit the website.
A symposium, "Emancipation and its Legacies," will be held in Wilmington on Saturday, April 6, with guest speakers Natasha Trethewey, the U.S. poet laureate whose work is informed by issues of memory and race, and Brett Gadsden. The symposium, from 12:30-4:30 p.m. at the Delaware Historical Society, 504 N. Market Street, is free, but registration is required; visit the website for more information and to register.
The semester will culminate with the William Watson Harrington Lecture at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, April 18, in 104 Gore Hall. David W. Blight, a Yale University professor and a leading scholar of the Civil War and its legacies, will speak on "America's Oracle: Why Do the Civil War and Emancipation Have a Hold on our Historical Imagination?"
Also during the semester, visitors to UD's Morris Library will be able to view documents and materials from the Lincoln Collection in Special Collections, and a special exhibit of books related to emancipation is on display at the UD Bookstore.

R.I.P. Tim Singleton, age 76, longtime track coach and founder of the Peachtree Road Race, had a Doctorate in business, talented, smart and a very nice fellow. My father and I used to make the trophy awards for the Atlanta Track Club years back and Tim was always good to us. I was shocked to see that he had died. In 1970 the first Peachtree run had 100 serious, experienced runners and the entry fee was $2, put into a cigar box on top of Tim's car. He told the runners to "be careful and watch out for cars." He started something that became huge.
"We make money the old fashioned way. We print it."
Art Rolnick former chief economist, Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank quote from Liberty-Tree.ca
Just over a year ago 7-31-12 Ted Cruz won the Republican primary runoff in Texas, reports SenateConservatives.com. He has made a lot happen in the past year, an amazing rise, seemingly from nowhere to the top of the heap. Arizona Senator John McPain hates him, which shows you he's a great fellow. In the Texas Senate May 29 primary election Lt. Governor David Dewhurst took 45 percent of the vote to 34 percent for Ted Cruz, with Dewhurst falling well short of a majority, forcing a Dewhurst vs. Cruz runoff, with former Dallas mayor Tom Leppert finishing third in the race. Many in the old Texas establishment supported Dewhurst, a somewhat moderate, very wealthy Republican. Texas made a good move going with the conservative Mr. Cruz.
Can we use our retirement checks to pay off our student loans?
Senator John McCain (RINO - Arizona) says he's "concerned about the impact its [Tea Party] members are having on the ability of Republicans to get things done." To McPain, getting things done means reaching out to his friends on the progressive Left, working for a more moderate, inclusive, watered-down America. You can see how his philosophy played out in 2008.
McPain in a recent interview with liberal magazine The New Republic (Mc was among friends) heaped praise on Hillary Clinton, calling her a "rock star." He would never say anything good about a conservative - guaranteed. "I think she did a fine job," gushed McPain.
A book I'd like to read - America-Lite: How Imperial Academia Dismantled Our Culture (and Ushered In the Obamacrats) by David Gelenter. A "dangerous conformist environment", says David Gelenter, professor of computer science (tenured) at Yale University.
Ken Hanson of the Buckeye Firearms Foundation sparred with CNN (Clinton News Network) host ultraliberal Piers Morgan. I try not to watch CNN but saw the tape on the Internet, a short interview well worth watching. It was the very smooth Ken Hanson 1 Piers Morgan 0. Ken never lost his poise, calmly refuting every point made by Piers Morgan. Ken helped raise $12,000 to help George Zimmerman to buy a gun.
"You can always tell when a politician has spoken from the heart: He has to take it back the next day."
Joseph Sobran Sobran.com
"I believe the best social program is a job."
Ronald Reagan
Remember when the staid old Republican establishment (SORE) claimed Ronald Reagan couldn't win in November, that he was so "extreme" that he would destroy the party and lose big? The same folks now pretend they were Reagan enthusiasts from the start.
Remember roly poly Candy Crowley, liberal presidential debate host? DrudgeReport.com says Candy interrupted Mitt Romney 28 times and gave B.H. Obama 9 percent more time than Mitt. Why do Republicans agree to allow partisan Democrats to moderate debates anyway?
Candy No Credibility Crowley is a rotund Republican-basher. She had earlier called the Romney-Ryan ticket a "death wish." The Bear on TheAbsurdReport called her "a partisan hack." That's actually being too nice.Bumper sticker of the day: If You Get Any Closer, Introduce Yourself.
Name of the week: Joe Gschwendtner, known as Joe G, of course, Republican politician from Castle Rock, Colorado (very scenic area), also the home of "The Black Avenger" Ken Hamblin, one of my favorites. To me he was about the best talk show host, certainly the funniest with his deadpan humor, now retired. Remember Ken? He was one talk host I always tried to listen to. I figure I've been to Colorado at least fifteen times, thanks to Eastern Airlines, my former employer.

Josh Freeman was late and not a part of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' annual team photo shoot, the Tampa Tribune reports.
It raised eyebrows last week when the starting quarterback was not voted as one of the team's captains, something this is generally done for a QB, unless he is a rookie.
When asked to comment on not being in the team picture, Freeman sent a text to the newspaper's reporter saying, "You know I can't do Buc non-sanctioned interviews.''
Freeman, who struggled at the end of last season, is in the final year of his rookie contract, and thus far the Bucs have shown little to no inclination of extending his deal.

RAF Cosford Exhibits
RAF Cosford is situated in the West Midlands UK about 40 minutes from my home. It has several hangars of exhibits including one dedicated to planes and vehicles from the Cold war. There are planes and missiles from both world wars as well as prototype jets and of course a Vulcan bomber! Admission and parking is free, there are electric scooters available also free to those who need them. Voluntary donations are gratefully received. There's a gift shop selling everything from models to RAF style flight suits as well as a cafe/restaurant on site and plenty of picnic tables. I heartily recommend a day out at Cosford anyone anyone visiting the UK!

Just as we know another Bengals player will be arrested sometime this month, just as T.O. will continue to be T.O., so will Schaub get hurt. Don't see why I'm being made out to be the devil on this.
I don't see Schaub staying healthy through the season. Schaub doing well means my team does well. But my hopes are not pinned to Matt Schaub. Not by a mile.
How many times do I have to say that I think NEITHER quarterback is good enough? They're the same guy but with different attributes.
Real classy I tell ya, real classy. Wanting a QB to get hurt just so you are proven right is ... ok I will not go there but you get my meaning.
How any true fan of a team can do this is beyond my comprehention skills, can one of you genius please inlighten me on how a true fan wants the starting QB to get hurt?

Emeril's Favorite Fried Egg Sandwich
- Yield:
- 1 serving
- Level:
- Easy
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
- 2 slices white bread
- 1 slice ham
- 1 large egg
- Pinch salt
- Pinch ground black pepper
- Optional ingredients of your choice
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of the butter on 1 side of each slice of bread (3/4 teaspoon butter per slice).
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the buttered slices, buttered side down. Push the bread to the side of the pan and add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to the other side. Add the ham and egg to the buttered side of the pan, and season the egg lightly with salt and pepper. Using a spatula, pierce the egg yolk so that it runs. Cook until the egg begins to firm and the ham browns, about 30 seconds.
Using the spatula, flip both the ham and the egg and cook for 30 seconds. Stack the ham and egg on 1 unbuttered side of the toast and top with the other slice, buttered side up.
Place the egg sandwich on a plate. If desired, top with grated cheese or other toppings, and serve immediately.

These kind of stories will have no effect on conservative voters, who seem to revel in the Harper's government sleaze.
A leaked draft report on G8/G20 summit spending that alleges the Conservative government lavished millions on a prominent cabinet member's riding and "misled" Parliament has put Stephen Harper's campaign on the defensive a day before the first leaders' debate.
But Auditor General Sheila Fraser cautioned Canadians on Monday, saying in a statement that only her final report will represent her audit's findings and conclusions when it is tabled in Parliament.
Fraser said the final report cannot be released until Parliament returns, despite all four parties calling for the document to be made public immediately.

Pronunciation: /t(y)o͞oˈnēZHə/
Definition of Tunisia in English:
A country in North Africa, on the Mediterranean Sea and extending south into the Sahara Desert; population 10,486,300 (est. 2009); capital, Tunis; language, Arabic (official).
Phoenician coastal settlements developed into the commercial empire of Carthage (near modern Tunis). The area was conquered by the Arabs in the 7th century and became part of the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century; a French protectorate was established in 1886. The rise of nationalism led to independence and the establishment of a republic in 1956–57, with Habib ibn Ali Bourguiba becoming the country's first president. In 2010–11 a series of popular demonstrations led to president Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali, who had succeeded Bourguiba in 1987, leaving office

{home inspiration: horse show ribbons}
Wednesday 1st October, 2008
by Roséline
Always love discovering new and creative ways to display collections. Here, adding a dash of the Equestrian Style to a room can be as simple as an artful arrangement of horse show ribbons and Equestrian awards tacked to the wall for a cool and casual look {above}, or beautifully framed above a table of awards and trophies for an elegant and winning presentation {below}.
AROUND & ABOUT : facebook | instagram | pinterest | google+ | twitter | tumblr
I have to agree with Sacheverelle. Although I think the pastel ribbons look lovely, my first thought as an equestrian was, "Hmmm, those ribbons are for like 5th through 7th places." Maybe we can lobby the American Horse Show Association to move from blue, red and yellow to more displayable
Ooo, very pretty! I especially love the first picture. The faded pastels are so lovely.
What a sweet idea! If only I had thought of this years ago when I had plastered the walls of my room with my years awards!
Dear G,
five o'clock — thanks so much!
felicity! always lovely, lovely to hear from you, and so glad that you're back in the blog world, even if not publicly at the moment . . . Hope you're well and enjoying more time with your family.
xo -
I'm so glad I stubled upon your blog! I love these ideas for horse show ribbons! I have several boxes full of them, wondering what I would ever do with them all. What a beautiful post.
Dear G, gorgeous post – as always – and THANK YOU for your lovely comment on ABT.
Hugs back to you chickateeta;-)
love these!!!
oh, I love that picture with the ribbons over the bed
oh wow. these are beautiful! thank you for sharing!
LOVE this idea. Malibu has a huge equestrian community. I will have to share this idea. Thanks for the tip!
Who knew these could be so pretty?!
My friend used to be really into showing horses and her room looked exactly like the first picture, haha.
That first photo is elegant. Who know that ribbons came in such lovely colors? Maybe they will bring pastel dreams.
TOO FUNNY, I used to ride horses and had a million of these that I threw away. What was I thinking?? They did smell though. HAHA
the horses on the bottom are so rad!
really beautiful…traditional and elegant!
I wouldn't want to display anything other than blues, reds or yellows. Getting 4th place or less in a horse show isn't that great tho I guess sometimes it's an accomplishment if you placed at all, maybe at Devon.
I love the ribbons mounted on the picture frames. It's very elegant – all the ribbons I have are from swimming though, and the colors are not at all pretty like these!
I have just found your blog. Very fab. You have been tagged. Check out my blog for my info. Carla x
What a cute way to frame the ribbons! It looks really lovely.
How charming! Having never won any ribbons, I would never have thought of this.
Superpretty idea. Congratulations!
Belíssimo! Parabéns!
Carla -
I only remember seeing them in bright red, green and black.. never thought of them being beautiful. Now I take that back. They are beautiful. Decorating worthy.
You know a while ago I was doing a party and I wanted to get some of these customised – could I find anywhere to do them? No! Tried making the myself but just not the same … love them used here, great find xx
Amazing what can be done with a simple ribbon ..love it!
I LOVE me some equine chic. How very clever and charming. Beautiful post as always…
what a beautiful picture..I had no idea that hourse ribbon could be sooo decorative..awesome
LOVE love love love love love! Did I mention that I love this! I'll have to break out my old ribbons… I just wish they were pastel!
I also LOVE the {Blazer} post below.
Thanks for the great ideas!
Becca -
The first room is so pretty, I wish I had a loft!
Beautiful post! Love the photos! I may have to buy that book too!
I love horse ribbons – bought a few this summer and have no idea what to do with them – thanks for the ideas!
Oh, BFF, these are beautiful! I love this post. Love it! Miss you, so glad you stopped by this morning! xoxo
I can't believe those are so, so alluring! They're equestrian (COOL), they're pastel (COOLER) and so, so stylish (AWESOME!)

Japanese Speech皆さん、あなたたちは私の最初の生徒ですが、それが大切なことだと思いますJapanese Speech by Roy-Flamaku
私が最初に言いたいことは、皆さんがいつもすごく優しくて、感謝しているということです。 皆さんと一緒に素晴らしい経験をしたので、私の日本で英語の先生になりたいという夢が膨らみました
Perception of PassionThe words that flow into my head are all that of suffering and pain.Perception of Passion by Roy-Flamaku
Love is but one side of the cruel emotion of passion. When passion begins towards someone, the intense feelings of desire make us gravitate towards. We feel so connected and intertwined that we begin to lose a certain perception of what we are and what we want. All that matters is the other person. Their happiness becomes our greatest asset. It drives us and becomes our reason for living. This passion is not always meant to last.
Love is but the brighter side of the coin of passion. The dark side of passion is hatred. Eventually, our pure positive passion begins to taint with negative feelings. Ill will formed from disagreements with morals and reason. When this negative feeling collects, it influences our passion and turns it ever so slightly into hatred. The feelings begin at a low simmer, but as more negative feelings collect, the feelings begin to boil. Before long, these feelings boil over and someone snaps. How

I love to share my story. I fell in love with the '57 Chevrolet after watching them perform at a local drag race event around the St. Louis area. Every article I could read about the '57 found my way into the house. Magazine after magazine. What to look for, etc etc. Then I read about putting a big block in a '57 and now I was hooked. So on a mission I went.
Coming back to work one day I saw this '57 Bel Air sitting on the back of a used car lot in South St. Louis. Went back and looked at it, a 6 cylinder powerglide 2-tone Bel Air. Very little rust on the car. When I inquired about it the owner of the lot told me it doesn't run and I basically said I didn't care if it did. When I asked how much, he said $ 50.00 and I said SOLD.
That was in 1970. I still own the car and in 2005 I started a 5 year restoration process with a complete frame off. Every part on the car was painted, plated or polished. The engine is a 427 bored 30 over with a stout hydraulic lift cam with roller rockers. It features the original Hurst big block conversion kit for a' 57, 2.5" dropped spindles on the front, 4 wheel disc brakes, 4 speed, Edelbrock manifold and Holly 770 Avenger carb, front and rear sway bars by CPP, traction bars from Summit Racing, Mallory ignition and lots of parts from Danchuk and Classic Chevy. All paint and body work was done by myself and I even created a $150.00 paint booth in my garage that worked like a charm. The interior is from a Chrysler 300 utilizing 8 way power seats in the front and the standard 300 rear seat which has all been reupholstered. Auto Meter gauges light up the dash at night with the green glow to match the car. The car is adorned with Crager Wire Wheels.
The car has been a winner, including Best of Show at my first event and since then has won two more Best of Shows, and 10 first place awards including Best Paint. I am very proud of my '57 as it's been a labor of love for 42 years now.
One last thing, according to the state of Missouri, I am the original owner of the car due to the loss of state records in the late 60's. That's pretty cool!
Some things are best delivered fresh.
