They tend to err heavily on the side of the government where kidnapping is concerned.
If Democrats learn anything from last night, let it be that it is better to err on the side of boldness.
In general, he tended to err on the side of inclusion and compassion.
c.1300, from Old French errer "go astray, lose one's way; make a mistake; transgress," from Latin errare "wander, go astray, be in error," from PIE root *ers- "be in motion, wander around" (cf. Sanskrit arsati "flows;" Old English ierre "angry, straying;" Old Frisian ire "angry;" Old High German irri "angry," irron "astray;" Gothic airziþa "error, deception;" the Germanic words reflecting the notion of anger as a "straying" from normal composure).

In the preface to this book, Bill Moyers says that Jim Wallis is hard to "put into a box and label." Though Wallis, the editor of Sojourners, presents the gospel of individual piety, he is nothing like the Religious Right that roared back when religious liberals called for racial justice and the end of the Vietnam war.

What are my rights? Who decides about my medical care or treatment?If you are 18 or older and have the capacity to make and communicate health care decisions, you have the right to make decisions about your medical/mental health treatment. You should talk to you doctor or other health care provider about any treatment or procedure so that you understand what will be done and why. You have the right to say yes or no to treatments recommended by your doctor or mental health provider. If you want to control decisions about your health/mental health care even if you become unable to make or to express them yourself, you will need an "advance directive."
What is an "advance directive?"An advance directive is a set of directions you give about the medical/mental health care you want if you ever lose the ability to make decisions for yourself. North Carolina has three ways for you to make a formal advance directive. One way is called a "living will"; another is called a "health care power of attorney"; and another is called an advance instruction for mental health treatment. NHRMC does not condition the provision of healthcare or otherwise discriminate against patients based upon whether they have an advance directive.
Do I have to have an advance directive and what happens if I don't?Making a living will, a health care power of attorney or an advance instruction for mental health treatment is your choice. If you become unable to make your own decisions; and you have no living will, advance instruction for mental health treatment, or a person named to make medical/mental health decisions for you ("health care agent"), your doctor or health/mental health care provider will consult with someone close to you about your care.
What is a living will?In North Carolina, a living will is a document that tells others that you want to die a natural death if you are terminally ill and incurably sick or in a persistent vegetative state from which you will not recover. In a living will, you can direct your doctor not to use heroic treatments that would delay your dying, for example by using a breathing machine (respirator or ventilator), or to stop such treatments if they have been started. You can also direct your doctor not to begin or to stop giving you food and water through a tube ("artificial nutrition or hydration").
How do I know what to include in a living will document?A living will document can be downloaded here: Advanced Directives: Living Will, Health Care Power of Attorney forms
What is a health care power of attorney?In North Carolina, you can name a person to make medical/mental health care decisions for you if you later become unable to decide yourself. This person is called your "health care agent." In the legal document you name who you want your agent to be. You can say what medical treatments/mental health treatments you would want and what you would not want. Your health care agent then knows what choices you would make.
How should I choose a health care agent?You should choose an adult you trust, discuss your wishes with the person and then put those wishes in writing.
What should be included in a document designating health care power of attorney?Advanced Directives: Living Will, Health Care Power of Attorney forms
What is an advance instruction for mental health treatment?In North Carolina, an advance instruction for mental health treatment is a legal document that tells doctors and health care providers what mental health treatments you would want and what treatments you would not want, if you later become unable to decide yourself. The designation of a person to make your mental health care decisions, should you be unable to make them yourself, must be established as part of a valid health care power of attorney.
How do I make an advance directive?You must follow several rules when you make a formal living will, health care power of attorney or an advance instruction for mental health treatment. These rules are to protect you and ensure that your wishes are clear to the doctor or other provider who may be asked to carry them out. A living will, a health care power of attorney and an advance instruction for mental health treatment must be written and signed by you while you are still able to understand your condition and treatment choices and to make those choices known. Two qualified people must witness all three types of advance directives. The living will and the health care power of attorney also must be notarized.
Are there forms I can use to make an advance directive?Yes. There are advance directive forms that you can use. These forms meet all of the rules for a formal advance directive. Using the special form is the best way to make sure that your wishes are carried out.
When does an advance directive go into effect?A living will goes into effect when you cannot be cured and death is imminent, or when you are in a persistent vegetative state. The powers granted to your health care power of attorney go into effect when your doctor states in writing that you are not able to make or to make known your health care choices. When you make a health care power of attorney, you can name the doctor or mental health provider you would want to make this decision. An advance instruction for mental health treatment goes into effect when it is given to your doctor or mental health provider. The doctor will follow the instructions you have put in the document, except in certain situations, after the doctor determines that you are not able to make and to make known your choices about mental health treatment. After a doctor determines this, your Health Care Power of Attorney may make treatment decisions for you.
What happens if I change my mind?You can cancel your living will anytime by informing your doctor that you want to cancel it and by destroying all copies. You can change your health care power of attorney while you are able to make and make known your decisions, by signing another one and telling your doctor and each health care agent you named of the change. You can cancel your advance instruction for mental health treatment while you are able to make and make known your decisions by telling your doctor or other provider you want to cancel it.
Whom should I talk to about an advance directive?You should talk to those closest to you about an advance directive and your feelings about the health care you would like to receive. Your doctor or health care provider can answer medical questions. A lawyer can answer questions about the law. Some people also discuss the decision with clergy or other trusted advisors.
Where should I keep my advance directive?Keep a copy in a safe place where your family members can get it. Give copies to your family, your doctor or other health/mental health care provider, your health care agent, and any close friends who might be asked about your care should you become unable to make decisions.
What if I have an advance directive from another state?An advance directive from another state may not meet all of North Carolina's rules. To be sure about this, you may want to also make an advance directive in North Carolina. Or, have your lawyer review the advance directive from the other state.
Where can I get more information?If you would be interested in more information or assistance in initiating an advance directive, we can assist you. Please ask your nurse to contact the social worker.
Medical illness can create stressful situations for everyone involved. For patients, families, friends, doctors, nurses and staff, there may be times when difficult decisions need to be made and the task seems overwhelming. Sometimes life and death decisions or decisions regarding treatment may be painful and complicated. Sometimes there is no obvious answer. Talking about these difficult decisions often helps. New Hanover Regional Medical Center has an Ethics Committee to help you with these situations.
What is an Ethics Committee?The Ethics Committee is a group of people who are available to listen to your situation objectively and talk to you as you deal with the situation. The committee can help you gather the facts you need to make a decision. Its members will offer suggestions, though no one will be bound by these suggestions. The Ethics Committee exists to help everyone involved to work together to make the best decision possible.
Who is on the Committee?The committee is made up of physicians, nurses, other health care professionals, clergy, community members and a medical ethicist. All members have been educated in medical ethics.
How do I get in touch with the Ethics Committee?Issues may be brought to the committee by a patient, family member, physician, nurse or any other hospital staff member. All conversations are held in the strictest confidence. To get in touch with the committee, ask your nurse or call VitaLine at 815-5188 for the physician on call.

Dog bitePosted by: Robert West
Category: Aggression
Posted on: April 03, 2002 at 14:25:57
Are two year old Jack Russel has in the last 5 months has started becoming much more aggressive. If there was any yelling or if my 16 year old daughter slamed a door he would aggressivly attack the door or if he gets into the room he litterly corners her on her bed. This type of behavour has been increasing untill today when my 11 year old nefew picked him up and he bit him. When my wife heard him she started scolding the dog and when I picked him up to take him out of the room he bit me. Both bites were enough to draw blood. I placed him in his cage if he comes out he's fine unless I try to pick him up the he contiues to growl. He has shown aggressive behavour in the past mostly involveing his food and has growled when family members have picked him up ,but never to this extent. Any ideas to curve this behavour would be greatly app. He is a loved family pet (maybe overloved!) we would all hate to lose him.

As of this past Sunday, July 6, Iberia is offering daily direct flights from Madrid to Panama. This represents a 40% increase in aircraft capacity (600 additional seats), bringing the Spanish airline's total availability up to 2,000 people per week.
The cruise season in Colón will start warming up in October as ships from Celebrity Cruises, Holland America, Princess Cruises, and Pullmantur lines pull into port.
The centenary of the Panama Canal has become one of the most transcendental moments in the history of this Central American country and the world at large. The 2014 anniversary celebration is slated for August 15, the historic day when the ship S.S. Ancón crossed the Canal for the first time, and it will take place a hundred years after the construction of this extraordinary work of engineering that has made it one of the main shipping lanes in the world.
According to the Agency for Promotion of Investments and Exports (Proinvex), Panama has greater potential and comparative advantages in several sectors, among them tourism for its legal security and transparency generated by an effective public administration.
We toured the city dubbed 'the Dubai of Latin America' or 'Little Miami', in search of the best in Spanish fashion.

Scott says not to bother with Anderson Varejao trade rumors
Jan 12, 2012, 12:23 PM EDT
Anderson Varejao is about to step back on the trade rumor circuit.
For as long as both he and Lebron James were together in Cleveland, Varejao came up in trade rumors because he was the one piece on that roster (other than LeBron) teams coveted. If the Cavs were going to bring talent in, Varejao was going to have to go out.
It never happened, then LeBron left and it seemed he would be traded, however talk died down when he tore ligaments in his ankle and missed much of the 2011 season. This season Varejao is healthy and playing the physical defense and doing the dirty work in the paint that plenty of teams could use.
You know Varejao's name will come up in trade rumors again, but coach Byron Scott told the Akron Beacon Journal he wants to keep the Brazilian (via Eye on Basketball).
"It would have to be an unbelievable person to get back," Scott said when asked if the Cavs could part with Varejao. "I look at him as one of the guys you look at and say 'He's not going anywhere.' I just feel that strongly about him and what he means to this team."
Consider that Scott trying to up the price. Varejao has three years and $27 million left on his deal for a role player that is of modest use to a rebuilding team. They can get some talent and picks back for him that helps them rebuild, and if that offer comes they have to seriously consider it. Varejao can help a contender right now, the Cavs are years away from being in that spot.
But would it shock me if the Cavs kept him? Nothing the Cavs do shocks me any more.
- sguy2130 - Jan 12, 2012 at 12:49 PM
Other than one obvious reason, a big reason why the Cavs lost 50 games in a row (ok..not that many) was due to the Varejao injury. Prior to that they were closer to a 30 win team. He is such a good rebounder and help defender it's ridiculous, and his non-stop energy and effort are still shining this year. His inside scoring and free throw shooting has also continued to get better, and knocking down the occasionaly open jumper.
I will miss him if he gets traded, but the Cavs should move him as by the time Irving and Thompson + 2012 draft pick are in their prime, Varejao will be getting too old. I fully expect him to be traded by the deadline barring injury. But you can't give him away for nothing without regard as Kurt suggests. He's a very good player.
- pl4tinum514 - Jan 12, 2012 at 2:36 PM
He probably gives the Cavs between 8-12 extra possessions every single game all by himself.
- crafttractor1234 - Jan 12, 2012 at 11:01 PM
Eff you Kurt. Can you post without taking shots at the Cavs? You are not a journalist, although you are an idiot. Piss off.

i could see him playing along garnett ( bass+rounds picks+cash or add lee or fab melo) i can see bass giving sparks at cleveland also lee

Ky. Center for Economic Policy Report: 'Worst Outlook in Recent Memory'
A survey of Kentucky's economy says lawmakers have a choice between reinvesting in services or making more cuts to government.
The report released Thursday from the Kentucky Center for Economic Policy says $250 million in additional revenue won't be enough to meet the state's most pressing needs.
Center Director Jason Bailey says this is the worst outlook in recent memory, and lawmakers must find ways to raise revenues to reverse the negative effects of budget cuts.
"Lawmakers face a very stark choice, you know, between reinvesting in our future, putting us on sounder footing for our economy, for our communities and our quality of life; or retrenching further with more budget cuts, more underfunding of areas that would make Kentucky a stronger state," Bailey said.
He says in order for the legislature to fully fund priorities like education, public employee pensions and more, lawmakers will have to raise potentially $1 billion in revenue that the state doesn't have. The alternative is to continue to fall behind other states that have made those investments.
Bailey advocates comprehensive tax reform as a major step in lifting Kentucky out of its economic funk.

Fox News' special based on discredited conservative journalist Peter Schweizer's book Clinton Cash dishonestly promoted several of the author's speculative attacks on Hillary Clinton.
In the April 24 special, The Tangled Clinton Web, host Bret Baier gave Schweizer a platform to discuss a series of stories that fail to connect the dots between donations to the Clinton Foundation, speaking fees earned by former President Bill Clinton, and policies supported by the State Department during Secretary Clinton's tenure in the Obama administration.
Schweizer is a Republican activist whose previous reporting has been marked by false claims and retractions.
Journalists who have reviewed Schweizer's Clinton book have noted that his reporting lacks a "smoking gun" to back up his suggestions of impropriety. Reporters have also pointed to several errors in his book. But host Bret Baier warned at the conclusion of the program that the claims could lead "people" to "worry that another Clinton administration could mean influence peddling on a scale never before imagined."
Schweizer and Baier tried to connect the decision by Swedish telecommunications company Ericsson to pay Bill Clinton for a speech in November 2011 with the exclusion of the telecommunications industry from sanctions against Iran, which does business with Ericsson.
From the special:
SCHWEIZER: Beginning in 2009, the Swedish telecom giant Ericsson is coming under pressure in the United States, because it's selling telecom equipment to oppressive governments around the world. In the midst of all of this, they decide to pay Bill Clinton to give a speech for the first time ever. They pay him a whopping $750,000.
BAIER: Soon after, Hillary Clinton's State Department urged new, broader sanctions against Iran, but the guidelines did not include telecom, which is Ericsson's business.
In fact, the Iran sanctions in question actually took the form of executive actions from President Obama, and not State Department initiatives.
Baier and Schweizer provided no evidence that telecommunications were excluded from the sanctions as a result of the speech. In fact, the sanctions in question specifically targeted Iran's energy sector. As CNN reported at the time, "The U.S. government tightened restrictions on companies that provide Iran with equipment and expertise necessary to run its vast oil and chemical industry."
When Yahoo News reviewed the chapter of Clinton Cash featuring this allegation, they noted that there was "no smoking gun" connecting the speech and the sanctions. Yahoo News further noted that a Clinton aide pointed out that telecommunications manufacturers like Ericsson have not been added to the sanctions since Clinton left the State Department, casting doubt on the suggestion of a connection between the 2011 Bill Clinton speech and U.S. sanctions policy.
Schweizer and Baier baselessly suggest that a donation to the Clinton Foundation from Saudi Arabia's Sheikh Mohammed Al-Amoudi caused the State Department to certify Ethiopia's human rights record, allowing them to receive U.S. aid.
Schweizer reports that Al-Amoudi's 2009 donation was highlighted at the time by "Ethiopian groups in the west, because they are very concerned about the repressive government in Ethiopia and the fact that Sheikh Al-Amoudi has a large business empire in Ethiopia." He goes on to connect these concerns to the fact that "when Hillary Clinton becomes secretary of state, one of the things that she needs to do is certify Ethiopia on human rights, but Hillary Clinton granted them a waiver which allowed them to continue U.S. assistance even though that they weren't complying with U.S. law."
But contrary to the special's suggestion that Ethiopia was allowed access to U.S. assistance directly because of this Clinton Foundation donation, that access predated and continued after Clinton left the State Department. In fact, the document Fox showed on-screen in support of their claim actually postdates her tenure.
As evidence of their theory, Fox aired an image of a Department of State Public Notice 8553, titled "Waiver of Restriction on Assistance to the Central Government of Ethiopia":
That waiver, signed by then-Deputy Secretary William J. Burns, is actually dated July 10, 2013 -- months after Clinton left office. It appears in the December 18, 2013, edition of the Federal Register, which also reports that identical waivers were granted to the governments of 11 other African nations.
Such aid is not a new phenomenon. The State Department's Agency for International Development has provided economic assistance to Ethiopia for decades, including throughout the Bush administration.
Baier and Schweizer baselessly suggested that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton personally approved a deal that eventually gave the Russian government ownership of U.S. uranium mines to benefit a Clinton Foundation donor.
During the segment, Schweizer detailed the sale of Uranium One, chaired by a Clinton Foundation donor, to the Russian state corporation Rosatom. He and Schweizer then had the following exchange:
BAIER: Now, does Secretary Clinton factor into this?
SCHWEIZER: For that deal to go through, it needs federal government approval and one of those people that has to approve that deal is Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
NBC News has noted in discussing a similar story by The New York Times that this implication "doesn't hold up that well." Indeed, as Media Matters has noted:
NBC News has conceded that the flimsy anti-Clinton allegations contained in a New York Times report fail to deliver on the hype surrounding them. The Times report was based in part on a chapter from discredited conservative author Peter Schweizer's Clinton Cash, and a series of facts surrounding the story's allegations supports NBC's negative conclusion.
The Times story suggested that donations to the Clinton Foundation may have influenced Hillary Clinton's State Department, when they signed off on the sale of Uranium One, a Canadian company with uranium mining claims in the U.S., to Rosatom, a Russian atomic energy agency. Alleging that individuals who had previously donated to the Clinton Foundation may have benefited from the deal, the Times' reporting has been used as the springboard for commentary hyping the supposed connection, despite the lack of evidence.
But the April 24 First Read column on NBCNews.com admits, "upon reflection, that Times article doesn't hold up that well 24 hours after its publication."
Indeed, a series of facts supports NBC's conclusion and unravels the innuendo in the Times piece:
Other media outlets have found that this and additional allegations in Schweizer's book about donations to the Clinton Foundation are unpersuasive. Time magazine noted that Schweizer's allegation about Uranium One "is based on little evidence," and "offers no indication of Hillary Clinton's personal involvement in, or even knowledge of the deliberations," while CNN's Chris Cuomo noted that the "the examples that have come out so far in [The New York Times] were not that impressive." ABC News reported that Clinton Cash "offers no proof that Hillary Clinton took any direct action to benefit the groups and interests that were paying her husband," while Fox News' Ed Henry noted "there's a lot that's murky" in Schweizer's claims.
Even Times writer Patrick Healy admitted that the allegations are "not smoking guns."

Conservative media figures are floating a baseless conspiracy theory that President Obama's televised statement on a CIA drone strike was scheduled in order to distract from news stories about Peter Schweizer's upcoming anti-Clinton book, Clinton Cash.
On April 23, President Obama announced that a CIA drone strike in Pakistan targeting Al Qaeda terrorists had also killed two of the hostages they were holding. Conservatives are suggesting Obama's announcement was timed to divert media attention away from stories prompted by Schweizer's book, but the administration was reportedly in the process of revealing the CIA operation before the latest round of Clinton Cash stories came out. Politico reported that "Senior U.S. officials" approached Wall Street Journal national security correspondent Adam Entous with details of the operation the night of April 22, since the "White House was planning to make the disclosure and decided to give Entous a heads up, with the request that he agree to an embargo."
Entous reported that "Typically, it can take the CIA weeks or longer to determine who was killed in a drone strike" and that the determination by U.S. intelligence agencies that the hostages had been killed in the strike had been made only "a few days ago." Entous further reported that after making that determination, the administration "then began the process of notifying relatives of the deceased as well as the Italian government and key congressional committees."
Opening his April 23 show, Rush Limbaugh said that while cable news was "devoted" to covering the Clinton Cash story, "all of a sudden, we were treated to a news story" about the drone strike, adding that the story was announced "right in the middle of the heat on the reporting of the fraud going on at the Clinton family foundation." Limbaugh added, "the conspiracy theories are alive and they're on fire."
Internet gossip Matt Drudge tweeted "Obama rushes to podium and breaks 4 month old terror op... just as media saturating with Clinton scandal news?"
On Fox News after Obama's statement, America's Newsroom anchor Bill Hemmer asked National Review senior editor Jonah Goldberg that since Al Qaeda terrorist Adam Gadahn has "been dead for four months, why did we not know that?" Goldberg said the release of information about the strike "does lend itself to the sort of convenient political timing accusation, but we don't know that that's true either," noting that he was originally booked on the program to discuss the book but was now discussing the operation.
Discredited former CBS reporter Sharyl Attkisson will host a weekly news show on Sunday mornings for Sinclair Broadcast Group across its 62 stations, the group announced April 22.
TV Technology reported that the show will be able to reach 37.5 percent of U.S. TV households and will air "on Sinclair's Fox, ABC, NBC and CBS affiliates nationwide." The magazine added, "the 30-minute program, which will be based in Washington, D.C., will be a blend of investigative and political journalism, with a focus on accountability, according to Sinclair. Attkisson will join Sinclair in June, and the show is expected to launch in the fall of 2015."
Media Matters has documented Attkisson's long history of sloppy and inaccurate reporting, including her confused allegation that someone in the government broke into her computers. After leaving CBS, Attkisson has been producing reports for the conservative Daily Signal, which continue to be plagued by her inaccurate reporting.
Sinclair Broadcasting has often injected conservative messages into their news broadcasts. A few days before the 2004 election, Sinclair reportedly ordered its stations to pre-empt regular programming in order to air a film leveling several false allegations against Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
Washington Examiner columnist Paul Bedard told former Hewlett-Packard CEO and possible Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina that he "never met a presidential candidate with pink nail polish on" during a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.
In response, Fiorina told Bedard, "There's always a first."
In an April 16 column about the event, Washington Post columnist Jonathan Capehart, who was also in attendance, noted that Bedard's comment "set off murmurs of sexism on my side of the table." Capehart followed up by interviewing Fiorina about the exchange, and reportedly asked how she would deal with "situations where people focus as much on her appearance as on her policies." Fiorina told him, "I've been dealing with it all my life."
Media Matters has repeatedly documented sexist media attacks on female politicians, ranging from Bill O'Reilly arguing in 2014 "there's got to be some downside to having a woman president" toNewsweek's demeaning coverage of former Governor Sarah Palin following the 2008 presidential campaign.
George Will ignored Hillary Clinton's substantial accomplishments as secretary of state, senator, and first lady in order to suggest that her support from Democrats is due solely to "identity politics."
In his latest Washington Post column, Will describes the Democratic Party as "adrift in identity politics, cling[ing], as shipwrecked sailors do to floating debris, to this odd feminist heroine," and writes that Clinton's "performance in governance has been defined by three failures." Will goes on to cherry-pick instances from Clinton's career, ignoring her achievements in the White House, Senate, and at State to portray her as a failure.
In citing Clinton's time as first lady, he omits, for example, Clinton's role in the passage of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), which expanded health insurance for children in lower-income households. Will also ignores her pivotal role in the Adoption and Safe Families Act, which eased processes allowing the removal of children from abusive situations.
Clinton also helped to create the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women and used her platform to raise the issue of abuse against women internationally, telling the United Nations' Fourth World Conference on Women in China that, "It is time for us to say here in Beijing, and for the world to hear, that it is no longer acceptable to discuss women's rights as separate from human rights."
Will says Clinton's tenure in the Senate was "an uneventful prelude to her 2008 presidential quest," failing to note that she sponsored or co-sponsored 54 bills that eventually became law. These including writing a section of the No Child Left Behind law addressing recruiting and retaining high-quality teachers; co-authoring a law compelling drug companies to conduct pediatric safety tests on products prescribed for children; working with Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on language in a defense authorization bill giving members of the military access to the Tricare health system even when they aren't deployed; and sponsoring a bill which would mandate more efficient distribution of flu vaccines.
Going on to describe her appointment as Secretary State as a "consolation prize," Will downplays Clinton's accomplishments during her years in the position. These include opening up Myanmar as the first secretary of state to make an official visit there since 1955, negotiating a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas with the help of Egypt in 2012, and tightening international sanctions on Iran to their highest level ever with nearly a dozen countries significantly reducing their purchases of Iranian oil in 2012.
Will concludes by ominously noting, "Another Clinton presidency probably would include a reprise of the couple's well-known patterns of behavior." But readers won't get a clear picture of those "patterns" by reading Will's dishonest column.
The press has almost entirely ignored the revelation that after the "richest man in Wisconsin" made secret donations benefitting Republican Governor Scott Walker, his company received special tax credits for that same donor's company.
By contrast, the media have frequently invoked donations to the Clinton Foundation in their coverage of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, baselessly suggesting that those donations create conflicts of interest.
Yahoo News reported March 23 that John Menard Jr., the billionaire owner of a chain of hardware stores in the Midwest, donated over $1.5 million to the Wisconsin Club for Growth, which "pledged to keep its donors secret." Walker helped generate large, undisclosed donations for the group, according to records unveiled as part of a criminal investigation into whether the interactions of such groups with Walker's campaign committee violated state campaign finance laws. The Club defended Walker in the 2012 recall election, where he prevailed.
Since then, Menard's company "has been awarded up to $1.8 million in special tax credits from a state economic development corporation that Walker chairs, according to state records." Walker appointees also scaled back enforcement actions by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, "a top Menard priority."
MSNBC's Rachel Maddow gave a detailed account of the story on her March 24 broadcast:
Yet the pay-to-play allegations swirling around Walker, a possible Republican presidential candidate, have been widely ignored by others in the media.
The story hasn't been covered on the three major broadcast networks, CNN, or Fox News, according to a search of Nexis and Media Matters' video archives. The Rachel Maddow Show appears to be MSNBC's only mention of the story. Besides a reprint of an Associated Press article noting a denial of wrongdoing from the Walker administration, the New York Times hasn't covered the story. And the only references from The Washington Post are in a post on the progressive Plum Line blog and the same AP story the Times reprinted.
By contrast, the media has repeatedly raised the specter of "ethical concerns" over donations to the Clinton Foundation by foreign governments and individuals, among others. They have persisted with this coverage despite the clear indications from Hillary Clinton's record as secretary of state that the donations did not influence her politically and the reality that the donations went to a global charity, not a fund benefiting her election.
Larry Klayman, a conspiracy theorist and WND columnist who has been at the margins of the conservative movement for decades, is behind a dubious lawsuit accusing Hillary Clinton of racketeering. Klayman is utterly lacking in credibility, having filed numerous far-fetched lawsuits targeting the Clintons over the years. He has also repeatedly suggested the Clintons "orchestrated the murders of several of their associates in the 1990s."
Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said on the March 18 edition of The O'Reilly Factor that President Obama "had nothing to do" with the killing of Osama bin Laden, but in the days following the raid, O'Reilly repeatedly gave Obama credit for ordering the attack.
Eric Bolling, co-host of Fox News' The Five, accused Hillary Clinton of "blusters" and "lying" for saying in her press conference that she was unable to securely access multiple email accounts on one mobile phone, opting instead to use her own email server instead of using two phones. But at the time, it was reportedly not possible to have two accounts on a secure BlackBerry like the one Clinton carreid.

545 Tasting Notes
Apparently I still want this tea. I always develop a taste for it and only it when I am not feeling well. But the good news is that I am feeling better. I have two more days of medicine and then hopefully I will be back to normal (and indulging in some choice oolongs!)
I'm feeling a little big better today. I think I am feeling good enough to actually break out the gunpowder green later today. That's exciting. I haven't had a proper cup of loose leaf in a few weeks.
According to Think Geek, this month is National Tea month. I think that is kinda cool and a good excuse to write an actual tea blog post sometime this month.
I decided that it was time for tea. I have been feeling better today which means I have been drinking less water, juice, and tea overall. I still need to drink more liquids though.
This is just what I was looking for. Slightly buttery and a tiny bit fruity at the end of the swallow. Nice and light and refreshing, but I can still taste what it is supposed to taste like.
I forgot to say that I was feeling well enough to drink something that wasn't sugared last night. My ears popped and I was so relieved that I sat down with a good mug of Earl Grey with milk.
So far, my ears are staying popped and that makes me happier. Now if only I can get my cough to go away.
I broke into this one a couple of days ago to drink with my fiance. I brewed it for a minute and then poured out a glass for each of us.
I was expecting this to be overwhelmingly smokey, but this surprised me. There is a little hint of smoke and a slight sharp astringent quality. But there is this nice light sweet taste to it that was just calling to me. The taste is nice and grassy. Almost a little spinachy. It just tastes green.
I brewed another steep today for about a minute and a half and added sugar. Oh my! This is going to replace my hot chocolate cravings for a while with that extra sugar. It brings out the natural sweetness of the tea and the smoke takes on an extra quality to it. It reminds me of fresh vegetables. I bet this would be wonderful brewed up, sweetened, and then iced. Yum.
I was really tired this morning so I decided to brew some of this up. It did the job it was supposed to do. It woke me up, but the added milk brought the coffee flavors out more than when I drank it plain. I like tea and when I drink tea I don't want it to taste like coffee. So no milk in this tea for me.

How to make a "French Quiche Lorraine"
|18% table cream
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Pastry dough
|1 Medium
|Gruyere cheese
|5 1⁄2 Cup (88 tbs)
|Double sided smoked bacon
|1 Small
|1 Medium
|1 Medium
First, as the bacon is quite salty, you may want to rinse it for a less salty taste.
Next, remove all excess fat and hard parts from your smoked bacon. Then, dice the bacon into small equal pieces.
Next, roll out your dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap. This will allow you to
flip it into your pan without breaking the dough. Gently turn over the dough into tart pan.
Press the dough into the edges. Make sure that all of the dough is flattened into the pan so that it
does not bubble-up.
Next, place your smoked bacon into a frying pan and cook until golden.
Prebake your dough in the oven on convection bake at 400 degrees F. for 5 minutes, or according to package directions on pre-made dough.
Now cut your Gruyere into smaller pieces and grate it.
Then, crack your eggs into a bowl. Depending on the size of your Quiche, you may need 5 or 6 eggs.
Sprinkle some pepper on top. Because the smoked bacon is already very salty, it is not necessary to add salt.
Pour in cream and beat slightly with a fork.
After sprinkling a small layer of your grated Gruyere into your pre-baked crust, add your cooked smoked
bacon on top of it.
Pour your mixed eggs and cream on top of the bacon.
Now add a thick layer of grated cheese on top, but save a small amount for later.
Then, it's time to sprinkle on some nutmeg, to your taste.
Now place your Quiche into the oven on convection bake at 400F for 20 minutes.
Do not open the oven unless the top of the quiche is brown. If that is the case, cover it with a tin foil.
Once you see your pie is starting to rise, sprinkle the remaining Gruyere on top of it.
About 2 tps.
Bake for the remaining cook time, which is 20 minutes.
Once you remove your quiche from the oven, it should look all puffy like this.
Let it cool down until your quiche flattens and voila! Your quiche may be served cold or warm.
Bon appétit!

Re: 3DMark 2005 Screenshots
Here's a little snippet from an article in an Aussie Mag:
To appreciate 3DMark05, one has to look at FutureMark's fourth and current release, 3DMark03. Up until 03, the engine used to create 3DMark has been the MAX-FX engine from Remedy Entertainment originally created for Max Payne. With DirectX 9.0 though, Mutlitexturing went out of favour and shaders became the central element. The aging MAX-FX engine wasn't designed with this in mind and the decision was made to start over with a new engine bred for DirectX 9.0 shaders. The end result was 3DMark03, a well received benchmark that didn't however blow away the audience in the same way as its predecessor. The major issue was that it didn't exlpoit the possibilities afforded by DirectX 9.0; out of the four tests, only Mother Nature used DirectX 9.0 features. At the time, DX9.0 hardware sales had not reached critical mass. Now DX9.0 has trickled its way down to mainstream, the developers of 3DMark are finally making the benchmark that will have today's DirectX9.0 cards struggling under the strain and begging for release. Just the way we like it!
Bear in mind: if your card doesn't support pixel shaders 2.0 or higher, don't bother with 3DMark05. You find any half-assed DirectX8.0 tests here; every test will use DirectX9.0 features in one form or another. In fact they are designed for the second generation of DX9.0 GPUs, those that support up to PS3.0
The most radical change in 3DMark05 is the way shaders are actually created - a shader describes the relationship between the type of material and a type of light. The problem is everyone wants to see lots of shader effects and there is no shortage of material/light combinations. Skin lit with a point light is different if lit with a directional light. Ambient lit metal has different shader code to ambient lit marble. 'In an actual game with enormous amount of graphics content, different objects with different materials and different shaders for all those, the total amount of shaders get completely out of hand and become very hard to manage' says Patric Ojala, the senior manager of benchmark development at Futuremark.
The solution they came up with was to automate this process and build shaders as they are needed. Although there are many material/light combinations, a particular material will behave similarly (though not the same) for different types of lights. With a dynamic shader engine, you can write the shader once and let the engine generate the different versions of the shader for different lights. Based on what artists specify, the engine can even create shaders on the fly. Patric explains: "Our solution is to procedually make only the shaders that are needed for rendering the next frame, If a new material appears in the next frame, we make a shader for it, but no sooner than that. This way the code and content is easier to manage, and the rendering engine is more flexible."
While 3DMark03 used mostly DirectX8.0 level shaders, 3DMark05 has really cranked up what DX9.0 can do. Materials are significantly more complex, and where appropriate, previous hacks have been replaced with more robust solutions. Many of the materials do Blinn-Phong shading or some modification to it.

Learn Italian in Tuscany @ Il Sasso
I loved it!
Jan 20, 2010
I have recently completed a 4 week course at Il Sasso. The first 2 weeks as a Beginners Course and the second 2 weeks as Elementary 2 course. I was a total novice using the Italian language and this is the first time I have ever organised this type of break. I loved it – the staff at Il Sasso are fantastic. Heike will do anything for you if you need flights or accommodation checked. Sylvia and all the teaching staff are incredibly patient and also good fun. It must hurt them to hear how much we mangle the Italian language. There are also different evening events organised from Italian cooking to walks in the countryside but it's entirely up to you whether you want to participate or not. On both my courses I had Sara who is a wonderful teacher. I now find that Italian phrases keep popping into my head all the time so I am much more conversant with the language. I am continuing to learn it whilst I'm at home but I have already booked another 2 weeks at Il Sasso. I can't wait to see them all again. And the bonus is that you also meet likeminded people from other parts of the world, in my case it was Americans, Germans, Canadians, Australians etc. If you have ever wanted to learn Italian surrounded by all things Italian this is the place to come.

In Jayson Stark's article on espn.com, he mentioned that CC Sabathia is the first pitcher since 2003 to throw four consecutive starts on 3 days rest. The Elias Sports Bureau reports that the last pitcher to do that was... drumroll please... DANNY GRAVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That speaks volumes for the ineptitude of this franchise.

Originally written on Mets Merized Online | Last updated 1/14/13
It is my turn to roll out some profiles on who we feel are the top prospects in the Mets minor league system right now. As Sean mentioned in the first post of the series, which you can read here, the list was compiled after much deliberation, arguing, and name-calling. To be honest, a lot of that had to do with my new name being Perseus and Sean requesting to be addressed as Batman…but nevertheless, let us move ahead into the top twenty with #16- #20. 20. Hansel Robles, RHP Height: 5'11 Weight: 185 LBS Age: 22 Bats/Throws: Right/Right Signed as an international free agent in August of 2008, Robles did everything in his power last season to dispel the idea that he projects to be a reliever. Arguably, Robles had the best season of any arm in the Mets system with an ERA of 1.11 over 72.2 innings, which led the New York Penn League. If you include his final start in the post season, he finished the year with 45 straight shutout innings, a WHIP of .784 (47 H/10 BB) and 0 home runs al...
