COLUMBUS -- It's been quite a start to the 2010 softball season for the Worth County Lady Rams, who will sit on their 5-1 mark until next week after Thursday's game vs. Irwin County was rained out Thursday.
In a tournament this past weekend in Columbus, Worth came away winners of the whole darn thing, beating No. 1-ranked Columbus in the process. Starting on Friday, Worth took care of Heard County relatively easily winning by a final of 11-2. Kimmy Lee was dominant for Worth, going 3-for-3 with two RBI -- including a monster home run in her first at-bat. Heather Ellis (2-for-4) also was hot at the plate, finishing with five RBI.
On Day 2, Worth steamrolled over Decatur, 11-4. Lee and Haley Ellis both went 2-for-4, combining for six RBI.
"We played so well the night before and it carried into the next morning," Worth coach Russ Beard said.
After that win vs. Decatur, which came in the semifinals, they only had a few hours before the took on the home team -- Columbus -- in the finals. And while the first two Worth wins had been blowouts, the finale wasn't decided until the last possible moment. The two teams had to go to extra innings and it ended when Morgan Bell drove in Brittany Cornell to give Worth the 8-7 victory.
On Tuesday, Lee County lost to Hardway, 5-3, on the road in its season opener.
Thursday's rematch, however, was a different story.
Lee County shut Hardaway out to pick up its first victory of the year.
"It's nice to come back and beat them for our first win," said Lee County (1-1) coach Lynn Avery. "We are a young team."
Natalie Shriver and Lindsey Tompkins both went 2-for-3 with a double to help Lee get the win. Tompkins also pitched five innings and recorded three strikeouts.
Lee County's next opponent is Pacelli on Tuesday on the road.
FULLINGTON 10, DEERFIELD 2: The blowout loss marks Deerfield's third consecutive loss of the season and puts the team's record at 0-3.
"We couldn't put the hits together when we needed so," Deerfield coach Meredith Gruhl said.
Deerfield was fueled by Gabby Burt's 2-for-3 hitting performance and a double by Bailey Cook. DWS' Lauren Fulford took the loss.
After losing to the same team on Tuesday, 7-5, the Lady Eagles (3-1) got payback.
"Our emotions picked up and we relied on that (to win)," said Terrell Academy coach Keith Jones, who watched his girls score four runs in the third inning to take full control of the games as they coasted to the dominating win. Carley Law (2-for-4) finished with four RBI, while Brittney Spilman(1-3) notched three RBI.
Cross country
Deerfield and Southland kicked off the season Thursday, but watched Mount de Sales win both meets.
"We had a pretty solid showing," said Deerfield boys coach Aly Joslin whose team finish third overall, paced by two-time Herald Player of the Year for cross country, Taylor Withers, who finished fourth with a time of 18L52. Southland Senior Andres Charparro finished sixth (19:10) and was the Raiders' only Top 10 finisher.
On the other side, the Deerfield girls, coached by Kathy Jones, finished second overall. Madison Sauls (24:13) and Caroline Hawkins (24:14) ran exceptional and finished fifth and sixth, respectively. Micaela Cuneo finished in a time of 25:24 for Deerfield to round off the Top 10 finishers.
Both teams are set to run again on Sept.28 at the Tattnall Invitational at Wesleyan College in Macon.

The two curves we have just considered – the circle and the parabola – are special cases of the conic sections.
A conic section is a curve obtained by the intersection of a plane with the surface of a (double-napped) cone, as shown in Figure 4. When the plane is parallel to the edge of one cone, the intersection is a parabola. When the plane and cone intersect in a closed curve, the result is an ellipse; in the special case where the plane is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the cone, the ellipse is actually a circle. When the plane and cone intersect in two curves, the result is a hyperbola.
Figure 4. The Conic Sections: (1) Parabola, (2) Ellipse and Circle, (3) Hyperbola. (This image is in the public domain.)
If the plane intersects the vertex of the cone, then the result will be one of three "degenerate" cases: a pair of intersecting lines, a single line, or a single point.
The conic sections were first studied by mathematicians of ancient Greece. Pappus credited Euclid with writing four volumes on conic sections (which have been lost to history), and Apollonius with completing these volumes and writing an additional four. In Conics, Apollonius proved that two (distinct, nondegenerate) conic sections intersect in at most four points [Katz 2008, p. 122]. Therefore, four points do not uniquely determine a conic section, as illustrated in the applet in Figure 5.

I used to dye my hair, but not so much, just few times , though the color was black . Now I stopped and letting my hair to fade and grow to its natural . But its so damaged and dry dry dry :(
Any good mask, shampoos ?? I've tried so much, nothing really helps :/
- would really appreciate brands that don't test on animals )*

I've had this same problem a few times. The main problems could be washing it too much…I washed my hair every second day and I was told not to by my hairdresser because it was stripping my scalp of oil. It';s important not to wash your hair too much because this strips away the oil your scalp and hair needs to be healthy. It could also be your diet – make sure you are eating plenty of veggies and fruits, and flax seed oil is fantastic as well.
I've tried a great mask just last week for silky, healthy hair – Combine one egg, a couple tablespoons olive oil, one avacado and a little yogurt. Mix well and apply to wet hair (this allows the nutrients to penetrate better) and leave on for about a halff hour. Rinse and shampoo/condition as normal :) your hair should feel strong, healthy and look shiny.posted about 3 years ago

I was the same way! I would dye my hair every month and had all kinds of colors, from black to red to purple to blond…you name it, I had it && I would curl or straighten my hair everyday so by now my hair is SUPER dead but I like to do a hair mask, try anything that has Henna in it, you can get a little pauch for about $2 at any CVS, I also like using the shampoos for horses (Tail & Main) it really helps! I take Biotin daily (take it at night, your body absorbs it better) and I don't do anything with heat anymore, I let my hair air dry and I go all natural!
I see a huge differance in my hair, and they're thicker too (I have VERY thin hair)
GOOD LUCK!posted about 3 years ago
thanks girls, I think vitamins are important , I eat fruits and veggies lots but I think is not enough :)
And I try not to use curling iron anymore , and straightening one I just hate. Thanks for advices :)

I don't have dry hair, but I do have oily hair! It's gotten a lot better now that I've switched to baby shampoo and stopped using conditioner because after numerous research, the oils on my hair act as a "conditioner."
With that in mind, just like what others suggest, maybe you could invest in a really good shampoo and sometimes harsh shampoos (usually the ones that smell super good!) are the worse! Also, I've heard Moroccan oil does well with some gals!
Hm, I just remembered my friend has super dry hair and she says that sometimes it comes into a frizzball (she's Chinese) and she has to straighten it (weird since I thought heat with dry hair makes it drier!). But she said straightening it (with the ions and stuff, so make sure you use ceramic – it's less drying) helped her dry hair – temporarily.
Good luck! Here's a site that I discovered that seems to be a good way of relieving the dryness in the hair, naturally! 10 Home Remedies For Dry Hairposted about 3 years ago

I found some super conditioning stuff at any store that has hair products called 3 Minute mask by Garnier Fructis. Other brands have it, i'm not sure how they work but it does add moisture and softness to my hair.
Since I have curly dry hair, I try to style my hair with cremes rather than mouse or sprays which adds more moisture!

What worked very well for a friend of mine with dry hair was using argan oil.
She also only uses shampoos that don't contain parabens or sls (sls is a very strong industrial grade soap ingredient that will dry out your hair insanely). Say yes to cucumbers is the brand she used, but there are a lot of them out there.
I bought stuff that has argan oil in it. Will be trying it soon . Smells really really good :)posted about 3 years ago

I had damaged hair too,and i decided to cut a little bit more from my hair..and now its ok,but my hair is still dryposted about 3 years ago

I've been there – I have naturally very curly and DRY hair, so I've had to learn the tricks. The secret seems to be to AVOID silicones in shampoos and conditioners (just use them with leave-in conditioners to seal the ends) and opt for keratin conditioners. The silicones (dimethicone and anything with -cone ending) form a film on the hair which doesn't let anything good inside the hair, but it "masks" the hair to look more healthy when it really isn't.
Keratin is something the hair and our nails have naturally, and it is what gets damaged. With keratin conditioners such as Joico K-Pak Deep Repair or Mill Creek's you can repair your hairs natural state!
Using keratin can be sometimes tricky, as it needs hydration in order to work, so I mix it up with really moisturising conditioners. Then just leave it, anywhere from 5 minutes to one hour, rinse and tadaa, soft, healthy hair!
When you pick your conditioner, make sure keratin or hydrolized keratin is among the top ingredients on the list, the very top five I'd say, to make sure there's enough of it.posted about 3 years ago

Don't wash it everyday. It will feel gross to begin with but if your hair is super dry, no one will notice. Also condition it everyday and set aside one day a week (I chose Sunday) to do a full and thorough condition using a heatmask or something. Don't use heat on it unless you are going to a special event. Try not to blow dry it either.posted about 3 years ago

Heat a little olive oil, put it on your hair and let it for about 30 minutes. This will hydrate your hair so much ! And also when you wash your hair do not wash it in a aggressive way.posted about 3 years ago

you can try a hot oil treatment every month or so:)

The absolute best product that I can recommend to you is Moroccan Oil. I've turned a few of my friends onto it and they report back within a couple of days that their hair is totally transformed and feeling better. I have ombre hair and a lot of bleach on the ends of my hair, and my hair has never felt so soft.
If you try the Organix brand, it's very cheap and a little goes a long way. :)posted about 3 years ago

I use this mixture on my hair, and it does wonders. "Homemade" deep conditioners are the best, but different ingredients are better for different people. This might work for you until your figure out your own:
Coconut oil (this stuff by itself is an amazing conditioner!), olive oil, honey, and that conditioner that comes in a tube with hair dye (it's the best store-bought conditioner I've ever used). I can't remember all the brands I've tried, but I know Loreal is a good brand.
If you leave it in for a while and let it soak in before you wash it out, it works even better. Also, don't use shampoo on the ends of your hair. The ends are far away from your scalp, so they don't get as much natural oil. Only use conditioner on the ends. Shampoo washes out the oils and makes the hair even dryer. If you can, also use a cone-free shampoo. V05, Suave, and White Rain are a few brands, and you can get them for as cheap as $1.

One of the best ways to maintain dry frizzy hair is to hydrate it on a regular basis. Try to avoid over washing your hair, as this action can strip hair of its natural oils. Do not forget to use some type of lotion, serum or spray before using hot appliances. Also, stay away from blow dryers as much as possible and laways use professional hair care products only. A healthy and balanced diet is also essential for healthy hair. Eat lot of fresh fruits and vegetables to get all necessary nutrients. It is also essential to avoid dehydration causing substances like coffee and alcohol. Now, you are free to use these tips to get shiny and healthy hair naturally.

I've heard that hair oil helps a lot with dry ends. You can also DIY it and just put some olive oil at the tips of your hair to add moisture.
Hope that helps!! Good luck!posted 11 months ago

Efforts to plant more trees are underway in BV county while the deadly emerald ash borer nears.
Two larvae collected by a homeowner from a residential tree in Story City have been positively identified as emerald ash borer.
An accident between a 1999 Chevrolet pickup and a train occurred Saturday afternoon at 2:06 p.m. at the 700 block of Barton Street.

I would have to disagree with that statement. College or more schools is not for everyone. There are programs that provide job training with housing, food etc the Job corps. I did not attend college. While all my friends went to college, I went straight to a job. 10 years later I am currently making 2x more then my friends that went to college by nothing more than hard work and determination. A bonus to this is I am not in a mountain of debt.
However do I kick myself for not attending college? Yes but life is full of choices. I believe if you have the means and determination to do it. I did not have this choice, I was kicked out of my house when I was 16 lived in a youth shelter. Worked through high school to present day.

I forgot to say, I play Rock and H Rock...
I forgot to say, I play Rock and H Rock...
Sorry the first part of the post disapeared, so let me write again... I own a 20 anniversary with HFS on treble and Vintage on bass pickups. Now I'm looking for a P22 and the pickups are Treble - P22 TM and Bass - P22 TM. Date - 11/30/2012. So what kind of pickups are those ? Will be so much difference from my 20 anniversary ? I Play Rock and H Rock.... Also some acoustics (this would be a good idea a P22 piezo).
Pickups are 53/10 treble & bass for 2012 model, changed to 57/08s for 2013. The 53/10 are smooth and sweet, but not a particularly hot bridge pup. Hope this helps.
53/10s in my P22 are my current favorite pickups.
Thanks a lot. And comparing with my 20 anniversary (hfs / vintage) ? What do you think ?
53/10's in my P24 Limited are simply great. This guitar has been my number one since I got it last fall.
Recent owner of a P22 but I've got to say the 53/10s are some of the best I've ever heard, especially the neck pickup.
Love the 53/10's for classic rock. With the single coil tones in addition to the hum bucker tones - I can cover a TON of ground.
If I thought I was going to live this long I'd have taken better care of myself!

Oh, and then there were the raw denim pair that was so stiff that it stood up on its own. But all cleverness aside, N&F founder Brandon Svarc is a legit denim geek, and the company's jeans are made from Japanese selvage denim, and produced in Canada with careful attention to construction and cut.

Brits "panic buying" light bulbs
It's being reported that shop shelves are being emptied of traditional light bulbs as UK consumers stock up.
The incandescent 100W bulbs are do be replaced by greener, low-energy alternatives as part of an EU agreement that Britain signed up to in order to meet climate change targets.
An energy efficient bulb uses a fifth of the energy of a conventional bulb, but despite this money- and power-saving fact, UK consumers are panic buying to get the older type.
John Lewis, Asda and Homebase have completely sold out of 100W bulbs, while Sainsbury's told Sky only "a few" remain in their stores.

Im ready for an adventure and I would like to meet someone to share it with.
First of all I would like to say that I love a girl who can read between the lines. =). The best way to describe me is that my friends and family are very important to me. I am a firm believer in that you are defined by who you let around you so I like quality over quantity. I have been fortunate to have me quite a few qualities over my years.

Football is a blast just always hard to get enough to play with so (M)y friends and I tend to play basketball instead. I love snowbo(A)rding so the girl I meet w(i)ll have to enjoy a few snowball fights and bui(L)ding a few snowmen, we will just have to make sure we don't make the snowmen too good looking or I might have to give it some boobs so I don't have to compete(.) The kind of girl I am looking for is someone is (C)an have fun and enjoy life and maybe sh(O)w me a few things or two along the way. She also cant be afraid to challenge (M)e intellectually and physically and I don't mean body building, but not afraid to beat me in a game of one on one or Thumb War. (I do have a good record in thumb war) =) She also has to not be afraid to voice her opinions with me. I want to know what she likes and doesn't like as much as I know she will want to know what I like and don't like. Plus she has to be ready to see the world because I plan on seeing it and it would be nice to meet someone I can share my adventures with. Submitted from mobile

Which section of Rome to stay in?
Hi! I have done a lot of reading on the boards and seems to me like staying in the Pantheon area is popular.... I am leaning toward that. We will be renting a place, likely through vrbo. What section of Rome do you think is the best to stay in for us? We are two adults, and kids ages 9 and 11. We will arrive Rome from SF - hopefully afternoon/night (via airport obviously!) We will visit colosseum, etc.. one day (and maybe gladiator school) We will visit Vatican, etc... another day
Next day we will either leave early for Venice via train, or see a bit more and leave for Venice later. The time we aren't seeing sights, we just want to wander around in the piazzas and eat gelato, have dinner out. Might see Pantheon (quick though) and Trevi Fountain. Don't care about shopping or Spanish Steps. We would prefer to walk as much as possible, but we are comfortable taking bus and train (and even taxi) if needed. What do you think would be the best part of town for us? Thanks for any advice! Kim :)

Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
Hello to everyone.
I have been going to build a pizza oven for years and have finally decided to take the plunge and give it a go.I have decided to go with a better homes style oven instead of a full blown brick oven like the pompei ovens.I have plans to use ideas from both types in my oven.I have been wondering what type of clay to use.The plans say to use a ball or terracotta clay because of their plastic content but not fire clay as it has not got a high plastic content.What i am wondering is can i use a mixture and also does anyone know what fireclay grog is and would it be any good to use.Iam going to build my oven slightly larger than the BHG one and incorporate a layer of insulation on top 25mm thick.Do i need to then cover the insulation with a vermiculite layer or can i leave it out and put a render mix straight over the insulation layer.Ihave everthing ready to start the base this weekend weather permitting as its been a bit wet the past few days.Any ideas on the clay issue would be much appreciated.Thanks,
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
Hi Bundy Mark,
Man, I don't really want to say to much here, because I am working on old memories.... But it seams to me the plan you are looking at had a couple of fatal flaws... You would go to the trouble to build the oven, but it wouldn't work very well. And I don't really remember what the details were... Maybe it was the insulation..
Does the plan show to put a good bit of insulation below the cooking floor?
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
If it is this one:
Pattern Sheet: Wood fired Oven - Better Homes & Gardens Magazine - Yahoo!7 Lifestyle
I would probably make some changes like adding more insulation under it and skipping the sand/decomposed granite.
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
And 25mm (one inch) of insulation on top, even high grade refractory insulation, is not nearly enough. You need two inches of refractory blanket, or four inches of vermiculite concrete concrete minimum.
I'm way out of my area of expertise here, but i seem to recall that clay or cob ovens need more air circulation over the insulation than stucco (render) provides.
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
I actually attended one of the courses run by Alan Watts who was the builder in Better Homes and gardens pizza oven, lovely man, lots of knowledge.
I wouldnt build one of those clay ovens if you expect to get long term service out of it.
We built both the clay and refractory oven in the 2 course and I ended up building the refractory model for myself.
The clay oven was fired the next day and some lucky buyer drove home with it still cooking a chook on the back of his trailer..:D
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
Iwas thinking of using hebel blocks instead of the granite and sand to fill the void in the base and then use 50mm thick hebel over the base to act as insulation and use fire bricks as the floor and build the oven up from there.
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
Hi Mark and welcome aboard.
I personally think that you are playing with death going down that path. I myself would go with the tried and well proven method and follow methodically the Pompeii plans that are free to download. I also have seen the Better Homes and Gardens ovens and let's be realistic, it is something that filled a couple of pages in a monthly magazine and little if anything has been followed up nor heard of again.
To put the finances and effort into an oven, go for the known rather than the unknown. Although the other members will try their best to answer your questions, are not familiar with this oven, nor with some of the methods/processes involved.
All the best and I hope it all works out well for you.
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
Yep I downloaded a set of these plans as well when doing my investiation of the different oven types. The main thing that tipped my thinking was the fact that both the cob and brick types involve clay the differnce one was air dryed and the other fired. The effort involved in both is about the same but a brick oven is going to last a hell of a lot longer as the brick will put up with the heat and the whole thing will not melt in the next rain. Check out a mag called backyard ovens by Earth Garden( you'll find it at any newsagents) its not a lot on detail but it does compare many types. Allen Watt is in there as well and yes he builds a fire brick refactory cement ceramic insulation oven as well as the cob.
Good luck
Keep us all posted on your build regardless of the type
Re: Newbie to build better homes pizza oven
I agree in regards to the Clay oven. I too saw that ep when they built one and was really considering building one...but the amount of things that can go wrong with them, and the amount of life you get from one is just not worth the effort IMO. You cant leave them in the weather unless you go to great lenghts in weather proofing it and there is a chance it could all just go BANG if it gets too hot! Like everyone else has said, building a brick or refactory cement WFO is the way to go. Not as hard as you may think...just do a heap of research into which one suits your needs the best.
Good luck with it all.

I have been working away so this is the first chance i have had in a few days to check out the forum.So i get the the idea from all of the comments that the clay oven is not the way to go and to look into the other types.I guess the only reason i shyed away from the pompeii oven was the amount of firebricks i would need and cutting and of course the cost of the bricks so now i will have to work out whether to build from scratch or go with a kit.I think because i am not in a capital city it may be easier for me to go down the kit route as just trying to find the basics in Bundaberg has been proving tad difficult.Oh well time to have can of rum and cola and ponder what to do.
BUNDYMARK p.s It rained again last nite just as i was feeling keen to do some concreting today.

Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer chastised House Republicans for their "ridiculous" flip-flopping in the span of a day on their outrage over President Obama's executive actions.
On July 31, Republican House Speaker John Boehner tabled a bill promoted by House leadership aimed at addressing the crisis of undocumented youths at the U.S.-Mexico border, after which he and other Republican House leaders issued a statement saying, "There are numerous steps the president can and should be taking right now, without the need for congressional action." But the day prior, the House approved a Republican plan to sue Obama for allegedly exceeding his constitutional authority by going around Congress to implement certain policies.
Krauthammer said on the July 31 edition of Fox News' Special Report that House Republicans' failure to act on the border crisis was "incomprehensible," calling out "so-called conservatives" who successfully advocated against the bill (emphasis added):
KRAUTHAMMER: The disarray among Republicans makes you pine for the days of earmarks and the rack. That would be one or the other way to get these guys lined up. It is, to me, incomprehensible that Republicans aren't getting together on this -- so-called conservatives opposing the bill. It's very simple. There are two things Americans agree on. You want to help the helpless kids, the ones who are already here in some way, and the appropriation of this bill is not at all extravagant. And the other thing is you want to stop the influx. We all know how that's done, even the president agreed to it originally until he caved in to his left wing and came out against it. That is, you change the '08 law in a very simple way -- two lines. You simply say anybody who enters illegally through the Mexican border will be treated under the law the way Canadians and Mexicans are today. End of story. You do that and you've shown good faith. I agree with Ron, there's not a chance in hell that the Senate will come back or the president will sign it, but at least the Republicans will have shown that they can do something.
It is ridiculous to sue the president on a Wednesday because he oversteps the law, as he has done a dozen times illegally and unconstitutionally, and then on a Thursday say that he should overstep the law, contradict the law that passed in 2008 and deal with this himself.
From the July 30 edition of Fox News' Special Report with Bret Baier:

Washington Post columnist and Fox News contributor Charles Krauthammer attacked the Women's Health Protection Act (WHPA), a newly proposed law that would protect the constitutional right to obtain an abortion, by claiming the federal government has no business legislating reproductive health services -- despite the fact he had previously supported a federal law passed by Republicans that banned a rare late-term abortion procedure.
On July 15, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on WHPA, a proposed bill introduced by Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) that could help ensure access to reproductive health services for women by preventing states from passing uniquely and possibly unconstitutionally restrictive abortion legislation. Since 2010, state legislatures have aggressively proposed and enacted a wave of anti-abortion laws, known as TRAP laws, under the guise of protecting women's health. In reality, these laws impose significant burdens on abortion providers by unnecessarily requiring doctors to obtain admitting privileges at local hospitals as well as mandating clinics to comply with seemingly arbitrary "safety" rules and building code provisions. The Women's Health Protection Act would bring an end to these constitutionally-suspect laws by prohibiting states from passing anti-abortion legislation that is any more restrictive than laws that regulate comparable outpatient medical procedures.
Fox News was quick to attack the bill, with host Bill O'Reilly wondering if the senators who proposed it were "executioners." Kelly File host Megyn Kelly was also critical of the legislation, claiming that it would "open the door on late term abortions ... not just to save the mother's life, but to save the mother's health." Kelly went on to invoke the assassination of Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller after suggesting that women had "abused" the health exception provisions of late-term abortion bans.
On the July 15 edition of Fox's Special Report with Bret Baier, Krauthammer argued that, even if the bill passes, "there is no way it would survive constitutional scrutiny because it is such a violation of federalism. This is not the federal government's purview. It belongs to the states."
Mere weeks after right-wing media loudly defended racist Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy with erroneous allegations of a "federal land grab" of his property, the same conservative outlets are now advocating for a border fence that would require an immense seizure of private lands.
In the first half of 2014, thousands of children fled across the U.S.-Mexico border to escape rising violence plaguing their home countries in Central America. Anti-immigrant figures in the right-wing media have responded by stoking nativist insecurities, erroneously suggesting the children pose public health and safety concerns and that they will be allowed to stay in the United States indefinitely.
Many of these figures have also returned to calls for a fence to be constructed on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Conservative radio host and ABC News contributor Laura Ingraham made the completion of a border fence part of her personal plan to address holes in the nation's immigration policy in a manifesto titled, "The Government Vs. The People: Rebuilding Trust In The Midst Of The Illegal Alien Tsunami".
On Fox News July 9, America's Newsroom co-host Martha MacCallum floated the idea of prioritizing appropriations to construct a border fence over money for humanitarian care and administrative personnel to facilitate customs hearings. On July 8, Fox guest Pat Buchanan said in an appearance on Hannity, "Why cannot the government say 'Look, let's get together, we do need a secure fence, a double- or triple-link fence, all along the border of the United States with Mexico'?"
About a week earlier, contributor Charles Krauthammer advocated for a border fence, saying, "If fences don't work, why is there one around the White House?"
Calls for a fence often lack context or details -- and in MacCallum's case, drastically misinform on the cost of such an endeavor. In particular, conservative media tend to ignore the fact that, in order to complete a border fence, the federal government will have to seize, through eminent domain, the private property of American landowners from Texas to California.
On June 15, the United States apprehended the individual suspected of leading the terrorist attack on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, transferred him to a U.S. naval ship, and ultimately arraigned him in federal court in Washington, D.C. on June 28. Since his capture, right-wing media have repeatedly complained that the suspect was not entitled to Miranda warnings or due process.
Fox contributor Charles Krauthammer falsely claimed that the Obama administration "arbitrarily" determined that the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) preventive services requirement must include contraception. Krauthammer's claim ignores that the ACA includes contraception as a preventive services requirement for women, and dismisses the fact that contraception is an integral form of preventive care for women.
Following the June 30 Supreme Court decision that closely held corporations cannot be required to provide health coverage that includes contraception, Krauthammer asserted that the Obama administration "arbitrarily" decided that the ACA's mandate that employers provide preventative care should include birth control, "as if pregnancy is a disease to be prevented":
From the June 3 edition of Fox News' Special Report with Bret Baier:

In light of the Obama administration's mistake in releasing to the press the name of the CIA station chief in Afghanistan, right-wing media have rushed to create a false equivalence to the Bush administration's deliberate exposure of then-covert CIA agent Valerie Plame.
Conservative media are exploiting alleged problems at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to argue for the privatization of the VA's health care system -- a solution opposed by experts and veterans organizations as unnecessary and ineffective.
The Obama outrage engines are revving up at Fox News and across the conservative media landscape as conservatives shift, temporarily at least, from Obamacare and Benghazi and set their sights on the unfolding scandal involving backlog waiting lists at Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals. The serious allegations that dozens of veterans died while awaiting treatment from Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care system, and that VA managers there created a secret waiting list to hide how long men and women had to wait to see a doctor, sparked a resignation and Congressional hearings.
The Fox condemnations have been especially loud, and sweeping. And yes, they've been mostly directed at the president.
"If only Barack Obama's team treated our veterans as well as they treat the mega-donors to the Democrat [sic] party," lamented Laura Ingraham on Fox & Friends. For days, a parade of Fox talkers have condemned Obama for the story. One even accused the administration of "criminally negligent homicide."
The heated right-wing response stands in stark contrast to the muted coverage Fox News provided for the last major controversy involving failed medical care for returning soldiers. In February 2007, the Washington Post, following up on original reporting done by Salon, exposed shockingly poor conditions inside the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Those revelations also sparked resignations and Congressional hearings.
But back then, of course, George W. Bush was president and back then Fox News wasn't as interested in the story. (It took Bill O'Reilly six weeks following the publication of the first Post expose to conclude that the Bush administration had badly bungled care at Walter Reed.) And Fox worried journalists were paying too much attention to the scandal.
Numbers highlight the striking disparity in coverage.

Despite having no apparent understanding of Supreme Court precedent, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly still managed to accuse Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor of being wrong about civil rights law.
On April 22, the conservative justices of the Supreme Court effectively overruled an important strand of equal protection jurisprudence in Schuette v. BAMN, upholding a voter-approved state constitutional amendment that banned the consideration of race in admissions at Michigan's public universities. Right-wing media were enthusiastically supportive of the decision as they simultaneously insulted the intelligence of Sotomayor, and O'Reilly was no exception.
On the April 24 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly dedicated his "Talking Points Memo" segment to praising the Court's decision in Schuette. O'Reilly's misunderstanding of that decision, as well the Court's prior case law, became immediately apparent when he erroneously claimed affirmative action policies violate the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment because "if an individual American gets a preference, then he or she is not being treated equally with everyone else."
O'Reilly went on to argue that Sotomayor, who wrote a powerful dissent in Schuette, "is clearly wrong, constitutionally speaking":

The administration of recombinant vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) encoding a CTL epitope (pb9) from a malaria antigen induced activation and maturation of splenic dendritic cells (DCs) in vivo. In contrast, incubation of immature dendritic cells (iDCs) with the MVA, in vitro, resulted in down-regulation of MHC class I molecules and reduced their T-cell stimulatory ability. However, the ability of the infected DC to induce an antigen-specific CTL response, in vivo, remained intact. Furthermore, the administration of recombinant MVA-infected DC, but not pb9 peptide-pulsed DC, boosted and expanded the anti-pb9 CTL response that was primed by pb9 peptide-pulsed DC. These data indicate that despite the ability of poxviruses to impair DC maturation in vivo, the important ability of MVA to boost CD8 T-cell response in vivo is mediated at the level of the infected dendritic cells.

Occupy Norristown
I've located some details on the organization of an "Occupy Norristown" event. I do my best to keep tabs on the locale, mostly for my own well being.
After sifting through keyword reports and running some search queries of my own, I stumbled upon 2 Facebook pages affiliated with the soon to be occupation of Norristown. The first is a fanpage and is simply called "Occupy Norristown"
I noticed that although the page has less than the required 25 likes for a vanity url, it already had one. But then I realized it was categorized as an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization). And since I've never set one of those up, perhaps Facebook offers some leeway with that.
The second page was an event page, and it was titled; "Occupy Norristown Planning Meeting"
There you'll discover that a planning meeting is scheduled for the end of October at Steppy's in East Norriton. Unfortunately I have no review yet for Steppy's, so I apologize for the lack of visual aids.
At first I was surprised that the meeting date was so far out. But for all I know, they could plan, and start all in the same day maybe? Another thing that came to mind was the 11/11/11 date. And I assume they're planning to start as close to that date as possible. Especially if any of them are familiar with the political system here in Montgomery County (draw your own conclusions).
Which brings me to my next observation. Steppy's is a peculiar old school type of "establishment". Let's just say virtually anyone might overhear what they're planning. (again draw your own conclusions).
eastnorriton.org is not affiliated with the Occupy movement, nor any local governing body
Regional storm grinds rush hour traffic
The storm this evening that hit the Norristown and surrounding areas slowed rush hour traffic in East Norriton to a virtual standstill. There was mild flooding on Swede and into Norristown where it becomes DeKalb. The storm seemed to be hovering right above the intersection of Germantown and Swede for almost an hour.
SEIU Strike at Norristown State Hospital
At Norristown State Hospital on Friday about 4 or 5 people appeared to be on strike, or protesting. Are we facing the same problems here in Montgomery County as we have seen in Wisconsin? The crowd seemed to be representing the SEIU. If that is indeed true, it was likely members of SEIU Local 668.
The Service Employees International Union was founded in Chicago in 1921. The organization is now based out of D.C.

Rain out
I was out and about this afternoon and stopped by the WaWa in East Norriton, a rarity for me. I needed smokes and was headed in that direction plus I could use some air in my tires and it's free there. Yes it's true 7 Eleven charges for their air but this isn't a pissing match. I grabbed smokes and filled my tires in the rain, and I was on my way.
There were some nice rolls at home and I was getting hungry. I started thinking about a prosciutto hoagie. I thought this was all very convenient as I could swing by Talluto's grab some fresh meats and do a review all in one. No such luck as they were closed.
So I turned around and before I knew it I was in the barren zone. The first thing I noticed was they're really making progress on whatever it is they're building where Woody's used to be (I know it was 'Wood's' – what do you care!). The second thing I noticed was that for the life of me I couldn't think of anywhere else to get fresh prosciutto but I knew Genaurdis would no doubt have some vacuum packed. I wasn't thrilled with the prospect of going to Genaurdis but it was close and a guarantee and I wasn't feeling real adventurous today.
Naturally the whole shopping center was mobbed so I slipped in the entrance near staples with the gourmet foods and such. I wanted to grab soda and paper towels too, but there was no way I was paying top dollar for it at Genuardis. So I grabbed the prosciutto and some provolone and headed over to Walmart. It always comes back to Walmart.
You can guess how this went. I grabbed the usual – which I might add is becoming easier at East Norriton Walmart. They had plenty of cherry limeade, and I grabbed some water and soda for good measure. Also surprisingly despite the multitude of customers around the checkout, I got out of there quick because the 20 items or less lanes were open. Those lanes are never open. But in the last couple of weeks there has been a noticeable increased management presence on the sales floor. Not just the leads and such, but also a trio of suits that sometimes walks around together plotting the execution of innocent endcaps based on inventory stats and sales figures. I don't know what exactly these guys are building, but they have definitely increased overall productivity and general effectiveness within the last month or so.
It was raining still when I left and had a pretty uneventful ride home. It was mostly focused on how to optimize my entrance so that I could make my hoagie the fastest. Within minutes I had an excellent prosciutto hoagie with roasted red peppers and provolone cheese, on a nice roll with some oil. Unfortunately I was so hungry I really didn't have time to get any pics of it, so I got nothing for you right now in terms of images within this post.
7 Eleven
It may come as no surprise that my favorite store is 7 Eleven. It has been ever since 1993 when the 7 Eleven in North Wales on North Wales Road got a Mortal Kombat II arcade machine. Ironically one of those machines is sitting behind me as I type this but it hasn't worked in over a year. I really have to get someone out here to take a look at it. Hands down my favorite game ever and I completely dominate at it. Don't even think of messing with me. During college I would double flawless/fatality challengers through a mirror. It was intense, but this post is not about Mortal Kombat II, the greatest game in the history of video games. It is in fact about 7 Eleven, the greatest mini mart in the world.
Now mind you all 7 Eleven's were not created equally, and some disgrace the precious TM they have adorned over their storefront. However I haven't seen tyranny like that in 20 years. From City Line Avenue to Blue Bell 7 11′s dominate the landscape of southeastern PA for good reason. Simply, they're the best at what they do. But what do they do? For starters how about providing you with 365 days a year non stop interrupted service. The only time I've ever seen one closed is right after a robbery. 7 11 knows how bad you need them too. On City Line there are 2 practically across the street from one another. In Norristown and the immediate surrounding areas there are at least 5.
However East Norriton itself only claims ownership of one 7 11 and sadly I rarely get over there. You see in my opinion the East Norriton 7 11 is in what I like to call the barren zone. Don't get me wrong I love that 7 11 and it has some unique items that set it apart from the 7 11 on Swede in Blue Bell, but it's in that zone. The zone I'm referring to is anything between Whitehall Road and Swede Road. If you are a Norristown resident, it's very unlikely you will ever cross Swede Road for a spontaneous stop because there are no through roads again until you get to Whitehall. East Norriton Township Park, Norristown Park, Elmwood Park, and the ever famous Norristown State Hospital all bump up against one another and permit no traffic. Sure you could get through there with almost any vehicle. But it's just not a viable route.
For the last 10 years or so my 7 Eleven of choice is far and away the Blue Bell location. Friendly people, your brand of cigarettes is never out of stock, and it exists on an obelysk of concrete that you can only see from an overhead map. I have been known to visit this store on multiple occaisions per day. I was recently ousted as foursquare mayor because I got tired of checking in there! I'm sure I could earn it back, but I don't have the proper motivation to be honest.
update: I got my Mayor title back with one check in.
The aftermath
Most everything was cancelled today, including work! After I finally shoveled myself out I headed into East Norriton primarily for grapes and green onions. Been thinking about chicken salad. Figured first I would hit up Genuardi's since I knew Walmart wouldn't have either of those. Now I had planned to stop at Walmart anyways for a few things so I would forgo the eggs I needed and grab them cheaper at Walmart. Problem was when I got to Walmart all they had was an 18 pack and they didn't have the Oscar Meyer boxed bacon. Mmm bacon… So I would up going back to Genaurdi's. Whatever it was a nice day out, at least I thought so. However this shopping cart probably didn't feel the same.
I don't know how I feel about this seemingly out of nowhere terminology that the news is using. I do know that for as long as I can remember I've never seen lightning during a snowstorm. It's pretty wild out there. Here's a pic from down the street in Norristown.
So the office closed early today due to the expectation of more snow. It still hasn't arrived, but everyone is betting on it. (Update: it is definately here now in the form of ThunderSnow!) I needed quite a few things and I had planned my route before leaving work. First I stopped at the Walgreens on the corner of Township Line and 202 in Blue Bell. Walgreens really is a superiour pharmacy and has the best retail goods out of all the chains. However this location is not open 24 hours! Sometimes I wonder about this area and their obsession with non-24 hour stores. Surrounding East Norriton you really only have Giant and 7-11 in Blue Bell. Sure there's the 7-11 on East Johnson Highway but I prefer the one on Swede. Come to think of it there's also the one down Germantown pike towards the WaWa. Of course there's another Walgreens there but again it's not 24 hours.
I did what I had to do in Blue Bell Walgreens, and even grabbed my smokes there since it would give me more freedom of line choice at Walmart. Coming into the parking lot at Walmart, I noticed one of East Norriton's finest parked in the fire zone. No one was in the vehicle, and I didn't see anything out of the ordinary inside Walmart nor a police officer. Maybe he just needed milk or rock salt.
Since I had gotten out of work early I grabbed a cart and took my time tonite. One of the first things on display in the front was a near empty pallete of rock salt. Sure I'll grab one of the last bags. I was also extremely pleased to discover that they had cherry limeade again! So naturally I stocked up on a few more boxes. I also grabbed a packet of those Tassimo Maxwell House coffee discs. I really do love my Tassimo machine, but I had a syrup problem with it before we moved. Sometimes when you use the hot chocolate cups, the chocolate syrup goops up the dispenser.
When I got to the registers there were only a few open and they were all packed. The one I picked quickly became the slowest. This woman was paying for her items with a huge stack of unidentifiable gift cards. They were blue with multi colored dots on them and she had to have at least 25 of them. She only used maybe 5 of them to pay so I'm guessing they were $10 or $20 amounts. What do you know while I'm waiting for all this, the cigarette line opens up completely so I wound up in that line anyways.
Zip Code
So you want to know what the zip code is for East Norriton, Pennsylvania. Well why didn't you just ask? The zip code for East Norriton, PA is 19401/19403. Look the word on the street is that you can pretty much find both of these zip codes in East Norriton. I'm not going to hash out the whole story of early 20th century local politics for you. Go read the township website if you care. Not that you'll find the whole story there. Bah whatever, you don't even care enough. Virtually no one will read this anyways.

Obama Announces Compromise On Contraception Measure: Catholic Leaders Furious
Outlet:CBS New York
New Jersey, New York and Connecticut are among 28 states that mandate all employers provide contraception as part of the health plans offered to employees, but some faith-based organizations refuse to prescribe it. Judy Waxman with the National Women's Law Center expects that to change. "What this new law does is it expands the very same obligation to more employers than are covered by the state law," she told WCBS 880 reporter Marla Diamond.

Man in crash caught by police after hiding
CORPUS CHRISTI - A man was arrested Sunday after he crashed and rolled his pickup on the Southside and then hid from officers in a brushy area, according to a police brief.
The 31-year-old man was headed south on Rodd Field Road about 10:30 p.m. when he ran a red light at Holly Road, hit a sport utility vehicle and then rear-ended a car, according to the brief. The pickup then struck the curb, rolled and knocked down a utility pole.
The driver ran away and hid in some brush but was found by police and arrested on suspicion of evading arrest.
After the man complained of back pain, he was taken to Christus Spohn Hospital Memorial where he was cleared medically and released back into police custody.
He was being held Monday in Nueces County Jail with a $500 bond.
Two women in the car that was hit were taken to Corpus Christi Medical Center Bay Area where they were treated for minor injuries.

1. Take a heavy bottomed pan and boil the milk. Set it aside for a while, as we do not use the hot milk to prepare the yogurt. We need it just warm (120 to 150 F).
2. After the boiled milk has rested a while and is warm, add the yogurt to it and stir using a spoon or an electric whisker. Do not stir too much. Let the mixture rest in room temperature for about 3 hours to 5 hours.
3. Check if done, if not done leave it to rest for some more time.
4. Once done refrigerate the yogurt before serving to get the right texture.
5. Serve the yogurt with any dish or snack of your choice. Yogurt can also be used in baking or cooking dishes, apart rom its use in preparing smoothies.
During winter when the room temperature is low, rest the milk-yogurt mixture inside the oven, leaving the light inside turned on.
Plain or flavored yogurt can be prepared at home.
Using high fat milk, the thicker and creamier Greek style yogurt can also be prepared at home. This is used to make the frozen flavored yogurt.
