Full detailed profile on Dr. Robin Scorpio Drake Played by Kimberly Anne McCullough on General Hospital Daytime Soap Opera.
Kimberly McCullough (ABC)
Birthday: March 5 1978
Jerry Jacks approaches a fallen Luke Spencer in the underground complex of Cassadine Island. Luke's glad Jerry's alive and glibly thanks him for poisoning the water supply in Port Charles. Jerry offers to make it up to him with a cure for polonium poisoning when he realizes Luke's there for the same cure – Helena infected Luke as the Vulcan infected him. He shares his relationship with Faison and Obrecht. After Faison extorted money from him and Obrecht helped him as long as she could, she had to find another doctor to work on the cure. Luke's eager to know more and Jerry points out the doctor is right behind that door. He's hoping there's enough cure for the whole class but Jerry disappoints him. There's only enough cure for one. Luke didn't come all this way to die here. Jerry calls his guard to take him away then and waves bye as he goes into the other room and tells Robin he's been singing her praises.
Through tears, Patrick watches the DVD Robin left in his stocking last year at home. It is December 24, 2011, and she has to tell him something. He has given her everything she has ever wanted. But her HIV is back and nothing is working. She did not tell him because she wanted one last perfect Christmas because by next Christmas she will be gone. There is nothing she wants more than to be with him and can't stand the thought of him being lonely. She wants him to find someone else and give Emma a happy home. Meanwhile, Robin has vetted some candidates, including Elizabeth. But if he picks wrong she will haunt him.
Obrecht has Robin tied up in another location and passes her off to Jerry Jacks.
Obrecht enters Robin's room and prepares a syringe while Robin begs for her life. She screams out and Robert runs through the halls at the sound. Obrecht restrains Robin but Robert throws open the doors before she injects her. He pulls Obrecht off Robin and she lunges at them with the needle. She stabs Robert in the chest and he drops to the ground. Obrecht tells Robin it is too late. Later, Anna and Duke throw open the door with a gasp.
Patrick comes home to see a vision of Robin in their home.
Robin, in Lucerne Switzerland, is handcuffed to her hospital bed missing Patrick and Emma knowing it's almost Christmas. She doesn't know how much more she can take. Dr. Obrecht comes in and Robin questions what is wrong and the doctor confesses that Faison was captured. Robin is sure Anna figured it out but Obrecht yells that she doesn't care about Robin's parents. Robin tells her it is time to cut her losses and help Robin. Obrecht decides she has faith in Faison and Robin argues with her until she decides she has no choice but to eliminate Robin. Obrecht does not believe that Anna or Robert will be lenient to the person keeping their daughter prisoner. Obrecht almost gives away who else is being held in the hospital as she leaves the room. When she heads back to Robin's room with a syringe planning to kill Robin and Duke she is stopped by Anna and Robert in the hallway. They struggle and Anna wants info on Duke Lavery and recognizes someone when she flings opens the door they are near.
In the Swiss clinic Robin realizes Duke is not Duke. He rips off his mask - it is really Cesar Faison! Robin is sure Anna will see though him but he assures her he doesn't care if Anna really loves Duke as long as he gets her. If he brought Robin back to her she would have loved him forever, but that is over now. Robin promises that Anna will be so happy to have her back she won't care. He will be their hero. There is nothing he wants more but he doesn't believe her. He will have Anna's heart. There is just one loose end to tie up.
In her room Robin tries to break her binds when suddenly Duke is thrown in the room, tied up and struggling. She recognizes him and he acts like he is just recognizing her too. He tells her he was in Port Charles and everyone thinks she is dead. He heard a rumor in Washington that she was alive and came here to find her. She calls him her hero, like her favorite book The Little Prince .He doesn't remember and she is surprised. She is apprehensive and asks if he remembers the first meal they made together - spaghetti and meatballs. He does, but she was lying. It was pizza. He is mad – she was always too smart for his own good. Whoever it is takes off his Duke mask.
From the Swiss clinic Robin calls Emma. She tells her she is not in heaven and runs off as Dr. Obrecht wakes up. She locks herself in a room and asks Emma to get daddy very fast. She tries to hold off the doctor and orderlies as she waits for Patrick.
Dr. Obrecht chastises Robin for calling home. Robin talked to her daughter and Emma knows she is alive. She will get through to Patrick and he will come for her. Dr. Obrecht taunts Robin – Patrick thought Emma was just pretending. Patrick won't be coming for her.

Pure iBCAA 2:1:1 (Instantised Branch Chain Amino Acids) from Bodybuilding Warehouse is an ultra-pure, ultra-premium quality Instantised Branch Chain Amino Acid supplement utilising the time proven 2:1:1 ratio of Leucine, to Isoleucine and Valine.
Key Benefits:
What are iBCAA's, and how are they different to my normal BCAAs?
At Bodybuilding Warehouse we pride ourselves on offering the best supplements in the world, and iBCAAs are one of them. The "i" in "iBCAA" stands for Instantised, and that means our BCAAs have come though a high tech manufacturing process that makes them better mixing, and fully soluable in water. That means no more vast white foam at the top of your BCAA drink, or lumps that float around in the shake making it hard to drink. iBCAAs dissolve fully in water, fruit juice, or your pre or post workout shake. This improved soluability makes them easier to absorb, and easier to drink.
What are the benefits of Bodybuilding Warehouse iBCAAs and when should I take them?
We recommend drinking your iBCAAs intra-workout, so as to feed your muscle when it needs nutrients most, but doesn't have time to digest anything. Supplementing with iBCAA intra-workout will result in better performance, faster recovery between training sessions, and less DOMs (delayed onset muscle soreness) after your workout. This makes iBCAAs great for cutting OR bulking. Whilst cutting bodyfat or trying to lose weight, iBCAA will help preserve your hard won muscle mass even whilst you're in a calorie deficit. Whilst bulking, they'll help make your workouts more effective, kick starting recovery and growth during your workout as well as after.
iBCAA's from Bodybuilding Warehouse can be taken on their own in water, or mixed into any other drink like fruit squash, a pre-workout, post-workout, or carbohyrate drink. An interesting post-workout shake could be for example:
Example Post-Workout Recovery Recipe:
This would supply super-fast acting protein and amino acids, backed up with super-fast acting carbohydrates, to rapidly power-up recovery and re-growth following the hardest training sessions.
At Bodybuilding Warehouse we pride ourselves on quality. Our Pure iBCAA 2:1:1 has been produced in-house in our own custom built factory, using ingredients from approved, audited suppliers who meet our strict quality assurance standards, and work within our principles.
Supplement Facts:
Servings Size: 5g
100% Instantised Branch Chain Amino Acids (2:1:1)
Each 5 gram serving provides:
Suggested Use:
5g in 150ml water, fruit juice, your postworkout protein shake, or intra-workout shake, 2 times per day. iBCAAs stack very well with Bodybuilding Warehouse PeptoPro as both a fast acting intra-workout that supports muscle recovery, or post workout shake that supports recovery and growth.
iBCAA 2:1:1 should be used as part of a balanced and varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended dose. Store out of reach of children. Please consult your doctor prior to use if you have a medical condition. Not recommended for pregnant or lactating women.
Produced in an environment that produces Milk, Egg, Soy, Wheat, Peanuts and Nuts.
mixes well, tastes good.
I've only used the raspberry lemonade which, compared to other BCAA powders i've used, tastes great. Great value for money and blends well enough with water. A bit annoying when its almost finished and its a mission to get those last 2 or 3 scoops out the bag. However, well worth it if it keeps the price low. As for results, I didn't use BCAA's before plus Its only been a month as an intra-workout addition to my water so I need a bit longer to really judge. However my 5 rep maxs have improved slightly.....so thumbs up so far.
I've tried 3 other flavours of the BCAA's and this is by far the best flavour I have had.
I have used this in pre and intra workout drinks and also to sip at my desk throughout the day. Helps to keep body fuelled with required amino acids and seriously speeds up recovery.
Best quality, best price.
Great tasting bcaas and definitely do as they should, using these a few times a day mores so on workout days...DOMS have decreased dramatically....I find myself pushing harder just to get the pain back more haha.
Haven't been using long enough to tell if it does what it says. It definitely is value for money. Mix well, taste good. Considering that other BB products are good quality I can assume that this is also no exception, so GOOD STUFF!!
I use them in my shakes - a must have n very good price
Mixes well, very slight foam initially but soon disappears. There can be a slight after taste but it doesn't last long. Definitely worth adding to any pre/intra/post work out as and when required.
I've had this product before and it does what it should, 2nd time round though the taste is almost eggy/sulphur.
Trying to find a juice strong enough to cover the flavour to help finish the packet.
In the future I think I'll stick to BCAA caps.
Taste is subjective and that was just my opinion of the packet I currently have.
excellent product, mixes well, will definitely order again.
Slightly pricey, great product. I've bought BCAAs from other retailers and I have to admit the quality couldn't compare to this one. However, I feel it's a bit pricey, given I take 3x day, the cost can stack up.
Perfect for all times. Straight to bloodstream so instant effect. Noticeable differences in strength and recovery. Great product. More flavours would be nice.
Excellent product that mixes instantly without any issues. Also tastes pretty good which is rare in BCAA products. Will certainly buy again.
Good product! Offers you everything you need, the price is the best around. The only down side was the taste. i tried the mixed berry and would rather have got the unflavoured and added juice.
Mixs well with pure, just make sure you get unflavoured as it can be pretty fruity but over all a must have.
First time trying bcaa's and got the berry flavour. Nice price at only a pound extra compared to other competitors out there. Will be buying more but new flavours would be good in the future!
Iv used several bcaa supplements of various brands, this brand surprisingly mixes really well compared to others. The berry flavour hides the metallic taste a bit if you can't handle unflavoured bcaa, muscle mass appears to be preserved while preparing for competition. will buy again.
Stacking this with performance mass and I'm defo seeing results in strength which is great news, only 2/3 weeks of taken it so time will tell how much more strength this will aid with
Just started to use this, tastes gross but which one does not.
I drink it with my protein drinks.
Seems to do what it says.
Bodybuilding Warehouse Team: Hi Stephen, Sorry to hear that you didnt find the taste pleasant. The high content of quality ingredients means that the natural flavour isn't too great. We released the flavoured version to mask any unpleasant taste but flavour is quite subjective. It's good to hear that you are getting the expected results and still rate the product so highly. Thanks for the 5 star review. :)
Looks good, feel better when taking it and can see an improvement already. Not very nice tasting but manageable. Might add to permanent stack.
nice tasting red berry drink to have mid-workout, gave me a bit more endurance to last that little longer, gain that extra set or two towards the end. The properties seem good as well, a nice mix of BCAA's to help build muscle. will be trying the higher ratios next for comparison

Gear Review
that'll do
First things first. I am not sure if the boots run a little large or not. If they do it is by about half a size. I am kind of a tweener and so depending on the company either take a 7.5 or 8. I chose incorrectly in this case. With that said I am unsure if having the correct size would make these boots fit perfectly or not. As they are they work well for even terrain hiking/walking and siting/standing around outside in the cold. This is another reason why the boots are not getting as high of a rating. I knew I was going to be working outside in them through the winter/spring in the desert of Idaho so wanted something warm (my extremities get cold very very easily). Rated to -40 sounded right up my ally and then I would be able to use it during the winters in the Canadian prairies. The boots do keep my feet toasty standing and sitting outside until the temps start dropping below freezing. I would say that my feet don't really start getting cold and uncomfortable until the temp is at about 28F. I think I would be more in love with these boots if they had one more sets of "eyelets" so that I could cinch it down better and they actually kept my feet warm down to 25F. Otherwise the boots are snow and bird poop proof and the tongue that comes all the way up is great for keeping stuff out of the boot. Would love to give it a 4 but just can't as I can't wear the boots for any extensive off trail/uneven terrain hikes.

A rare, spider-like harvestman preserved in amber has been donated to the Natural History Museum by Rochester fossil collector Terence Collingwood.
The tiny arachnid is 34-40 million years old and is only the second example of its species, Dicranopalpus ramiger> , to join the national collection.
'Being able to contribute to the Museum's collection is a dream come true,' said Terence Collingwood, who runs I Dig Dinos fossil shop on Rochester High Street.
'I buy bulk lots of amber to sell, and I have to search through them carefully looking for unusual items that other people may have missed. Finding this was pure chance, but I realised straight away that it was something special.'
Close up of the harvestman preserved in the amber.
The harvestman looks similar to a spider but it is not. They have oval bodies and very thin legs. While spiders have their head and abdomen separated by a waist, harvestmen's bodies and heads are fused together, and they do not produce silk. Harvestman belong to the class Arachnids that also includes spiders, scorpions, ticks and mites.
This specimen is a juvenile. Its body is the size of a pinhead and it has very thin, 6mm-long legs. It was preserved in a lump of Baltic amber slightly larger than a £2 coin.
'Complete harvestmen are rare finds,' said Andrew Ross, Museum fossil invertebrates and plants expert. 'It's more common to find just the legs in amber, where a trapped leg or two were sacrificed so the harvestman could escape the sticky resin.'
'This is a particularly impressive example because all its legs are present and still attached to the body. It is a very welcome addition to our collection.'
This specimen is about the size of a £2 coin.
Amber acts as nature's time capsule, telling us about life in ancient forests. It is fossilised tree resin that once was a gluey trap, capturing small insects as it oozed from tree bark millions of years ago.
Amber is extremely important for understanding the history of land-living animals, particularly small insects that are not often preserved in rocks.
This spectacular new addition will join the other 5,000 pieces of amber, many containing more than one insect, in the Museum's palaeontology collection.

In LA for a few days this week, can you recommend a place in Pasadena for lunch
I will be in LA for a few days later this week. On Friday I am meeting up with two friends and someone recommended going to the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena. So, can someone recommend a nice place for lunch. We all like ethnic food.
Hi, BRN.
This thread has tons of great suggestions for ethnic lunches:
re: onebite
thanks so much!
yes, my first post here! i've been a lurker at this site for quite some time now.
are you willing to try tibetan/nepalese food? if so, go to the Tibet Nepal House on Holly St. they have a lunch buffet for like $8.
re: Larapanget
Most definitely, thanks!
re: Larapanget
I lurked for a while . . . now I'm addicted! Argh, spending too much time on Chowhound.... LOL
If you're interested in Persian food, Heidar Baba on Colorado Blvd. across from PCC is pretty good.
Hi BRN:
There were lots of good suggestions on the ethnic lunches link included above by onebite. On that list is a great pair of restaurants called Saladang and Saladang Song. It's Thai food, and it's great. Saladang Song is such a cool building and has a nice patio...

And the bullies back...
Some of you may remember a thread I started a while ago about a kids brother who was threatening me.
Yeah, well now the kid has took it a limit where he's hurt my friends feelings and pushing him to an extent of aggression. And my friends pretty calm usually.
So my friend kinda turned against me til I told him the truth, when I told him the truth. He's seen different of him since. So what the kid did was he knew my friend was crazy over a girl so he went and asked her out for himself (the kid for himself. And he knew my friend loves her) and she rejected him. He texted me to say that he's getting pushed to a limit. Not only that, some other friends have been saying the kids been talking about me and spreading rumours about me. So some got shared... Saying I was bullying him, I ruined his life, I think I'm the best person on the planet etc. etc. when in reality it's the other way around.
Not only that, ALL of my friends have had it with him and since I found out all the stuff he was saying about me and especially since a girl lied saying she was going out with me because she was scared (which I do not care about. I like to defend my friends) he's been threatening her and saying he'd have a word with me next time he see's me. But at the moment, I think it's time I had a word with him. He's actually putting my blood to a boil and I am a calm person too (as are all of my friends).
He's told a few that he can see them and just stood staring at them and they were getting creeped out. Either he's trying to ruin MY life. Or my friendship with other people.
The thing that annoys me the most is the part of him asking the girl my friend likes out now she said "I can't go out with you incase he tries to kill you or me." Because the kid is pyscho.
He's pushing us all to a limit where we all want to hurt him.
He disappeared once for 4 months. BEST 4 MONTHS OF MY LIFE to be honest, comes back and steals all my friends.
Should I leave him be unless he tries "to have a word with me"?
I'm not going to hurt him unless he hurts me or my friends. And I'm not a violent person so the ratio of that is 2:5.

May 14, 2005
FORT COLLINS, COLO. - The University of New Mexico men and women earned all-conference honors 11 times today on the final day of the 2005 Mountain West Conference Outdoor Track and Field Championships en route to their best combined performance at a conference meet in 15 years. Junior Matt Keeran unleashed the best throw of his career to pull off the upset victory in the javelin, while freshman Ariel Burr smashed the UNM 400-meter record in an all-MWC performance. The New Mexico men scored 107.5 points to finish fourth, while the women tallied their best score since 2000, to finish sixth (64.5 points). BYU swept the men's and women's titles for the second straight year.
The men surpassed the 100-point plateau for the second time in the past four years, under fifth-year head coach Matt Henry. It was the team's second-highest output since 1990, only behind the 125.5 points scored by Henry's 2002 team. Prior to Henry's arrival, the Lobos had gone 11 straight years without reaching the century mark.
After a finishing last for the second time in school history in 2004, the New Mexico women moved up two spots on Saturday to earn their best place in the standings since 2001. The Lobos finished just 1.5 points behind of fifth place UNLV.
The men and women combined for 172 points over the four-day meet, the best combined scoring output since 1990 when the men finished third in the Western Athletic Conference Championships and the women were the runners-up in the High Country Athletic Conference.
"We had a pretty darn good day today," Henry said. "Nothing ever goes perfectly, but we had several people do a super job for us, especially on the women's side where we had to overcome a big injury. This really was a great day for New Mexico track and field. We're getting better each year and with the way our young kids performed today, I'd say the future looks pretty bright for us."
Keeran's improbable victory in the javelin secured his place as the Lobos' comeback athlete of the year. After earning all-MWC honors as a freshman (third place) and sophomore (second place), Keeran redshirted the 2004 season to undergo surgery on his throwing elbow. The Albuquerque La Cueva product traveled a slow road to recovery this spring, competing just three times and entering the meet as the No. 6 seed with a top mark of 191-04, his only throw over 190 feet since 2003.
Keeran, however, notched a season-best throw of 194 feet in the preliminaries, an effort he later said he was content to finish the season with. With nothing to lose on his final attempt, he launched the javelin a career-best and NCAA regional qualifying distance of 211' 5", becoming the first Lobo to win the event since Donnie Lujan in 1991 and just the second UNM javelin winner since 1972. Keeran was one of three Lobos to score in the event as he and juniors Dan Feltman (4th - 197-08) and Reuben Trujillo (8th - 186-06) combined for 16 points.
Feltman's performance netted him UNM high-point athlete of the meet honors with 15, including 10 points for winning the decathlon on Thursday. Freshman Shadrack Kiptoo-Biwott finished just behind Feltman with 14 points in a pair of all-MWC runs in the 800 and 1,500 meters. Kiptoo-Biwott placed third in the 800 with a time of 1:50.76*, just off the regional qualifying standard, and was second in the 1,500 with a time of 3:48.38*.
"I'm very please with what Shadrack was able to do today," said Henry. "He had an hour and ten minutes between the 1,500 and 800 and to earn all-conference honors in both events was outstanding. I don't think there's anybody else in the conference who did what he did and we're hoping he'll keep it going in two weeks at the regional meet."
Fellow freshman Jarrin Solomon extended his season with a scintillating runner-up performance in the 400. The son of former Lobo national champion Michael Solomon, Jarrin blazed to a time of 47.05* to join the NCAA Midwest Regional field. He finished 0.25 seconds behind BYU senior David Chesser. Sophomore Randle McCain grabbed the eighth place point in the event with a time of 49.50*.
Solomon led a stellar performance by the UNM associate head coach Mark Henry's sprinters. The Lobo men scored 17 points in the 100 and 200 behind the efforts of senior Ahmed Raji (5th - 100, 5th - 200), sophomore Jeramie White (5th - 200, 6th - 100), senior Aaron Brack (7th - 100) and freshman Marcus Smith (6th - 200). The team of McCain, Solomon, Kurt Henry and White clocked a season-best time of 3:12.29* to finish second in the 4x400-meter relay, giving the Lobos its fourth all-MWC team in the past five years. The new starting 4x100 team of Raji, Smith, Solomon and White appeared headed to the Lobos' first conference title in the short relay in 38 years, but the team mistimed its final exchange and was disqualified.
Despite the loss of crew leader Kimilia Davis to a hamstring injury on Friday, the Lobos' women's sprinters turned their best performance in five years. Freshman Kristan Matison opened the day by becoming the first UNM woman ever to earn all-Mountain West honors in the 100, placing third with a time of 11.92*. Matison, who was also eighth in the 200, came back to lead a spirited performance by the 4x100 team. Ranked fourth entering the meet and missing one of its top threats in Davis, the team of Matison, Burr, fellow freshman Tabatha Shaw and senior Erin Teske flew to a time of 46.40* to place third and earn all-conference honors for the first time since 2000. Teske, who had yet to run on the short relay in 2005, filled in admirably for Davis, taking the baton for the anchor leg in the final race of her career.
Burr later turned in one of the highlights of the meet with a third place finish in the 400. The product of tiny Carrizozo, N.M. flew to a time of 54.11* to earn a spot in the Midwest Regional field and the all-MWC team while shaving 0.13 seconds off Arline Smith's four-year old record.
Junior distance runner Jacquelyne Gallegos also turned in a stellar performance, finishing second in the 5,000 with a time of 17:09.96*, just 2.56 seconds behind the winner, Rena Williams-Chesser of BYU. Gallegos moved up three spots from fifth place down the final stretch and just ran out of room as she tried to catch the fading Cougar. Gallegos earned all-conference honors for the second straight year after placing third in the 1,500 last spring.
Senior Veronica R. Gonzales placed third in the javelin to earn all-MWC honors for the second straight year. The Carlsbad, N.M. native recorded her third-best throw of the year (148-05), but will continue her season in two weeks at the regional meet.
In perhaps the most anticipated field event battle of the day, New Mexico senior Amanda Barnes fell short in her attempt to win her third straight shot put crown. While Barnes's mark of 51' 7.75" was nearly four feet ahead of the third place finisher, Colorado State All-American Loree Smith continued her dominance of the throwing events with a conference record toss of 54' 9.5" in her first shot put competition of the outdoor season. Smith also won the hammer and discus on Friday to earn the league's High-Point award.
Other scorers for the Lobos included: sophomore Riann Lucy (5th - 800), 4x400m relay team (5th), freshman Whitney Johnson (4th - pole vault), senior Katie Coles (T8th - pole vault), senior Nick Martinez (5th - 5,000m), freshman Derek McDonald (6th - 110m hurdles), sophomore Mark Lamb (8th - 400m hurdles), senior Willie Yuen (7th - triple jump).

Pretty Little Liars
Pretty Little Liars Season 3 Finale: "Most Shocking Episode" Ever?
From all accounts, the Season 3 finale of Pretty Little Liars is going to be epic, but will it be the "most shocking episode" ever? Janel Parrish (Mona) seems to think so, and since Mona is usually one step ahead of us, we're going to take her word for it!
"This is the most shocking episode we've ever had," Janel told TV Line. "Each season, we up the ante just a little bit and it gets more and more shocking."
Janel was talking about the multiple "A" team member reveals (including Red Coat herself) set to happen in tonight's episode. She said she was shocked by the reveal, but because everyone in Rosewood is a suspect at one point or another, this person has been suspicious before.
"It will be one of those things where you kind of suspected that person, but you're still shocked that's where they went with it," said Janel. We hope so! We love a good PLL shocker.
Are there any shockers in Mona's future? Janel said she definitely doesn't know everything that Mona is up to, but has an idea of where the character is headed: "Our producers keep things close to the vest… But I have a pretty good idea of the master plan when it comes to Mona and the 'A' Team from bits and pieces that I've gathered and from hints that I've gotten from the writers."
That makes one of us, Janel! Every time we think we have this show figured out, they throw us a curveball. And, it sounds like Pretty Little Liars won't be taking it easy on us headed into the new season.
"We just started shooting Season 4 last week," said Janel, "and it's even better than anything we've done before! Our writers are amazing and they just keep making it better and better."
We wouldn't have it any other way!
Catch the next episode of Pretty Little Liars on Tuesday, March 19, 2013 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC Family.

how long
I can't think of a better example of this than the health care debate. It's profoundly strange to me that I am not supposed to point out the fact that those who have argued fiercely against health care reform don't, in fact, want uninsured and underinsured Americans to get access to health care. Indeed, it's seen as the height of lefty vulgarity to say that those working tirelessly to undermine every effort to cover the uninsured don't want the uninsured to get covered. The stance that one can simultaneously oppose all real reforms but bear no moral culpability for the consequences of the lack of reform seems flatly wrong to me, but people insist on that idea quite doggedly.
Personally, I think denying people adequate health care coverage because of their economic condition or employment status is a practical and ethical failure equal to Jim Crow or similar regimes of racial inequality. Now you can know me by my extremism. And so the meticulously curated pose of believing in a theoretical regime of universal health care while opposing all real reform seems to me to be dishonest and worse.
But okay. Have it your way. Let's say that, for the time being, I'll accept that stance as genuine. I have a serious, non-rhetorical question: when does that change? When does intellectual seriousness compel people to present a real, actionable, and plausible plan that covers the uninsured, or else abandon the pretense that they want them covered? We have been debating health care reform that is like Obamacare since well before the '08 election. We've been debating the actual legislation for years now. So: when does it become incumbent on those opposed to PPACA to present a viable alternative or else abandon the pretense that they want coverage for the uninsured at all? Is there a specific date when I should expect a viable, realistic plan to emerge from the Republican leadership, one that actually could be passed as the "replace" part of repeal and replace? Is the time horizon literally endless? Ross Douthat, to pick just one, has written for ages about endorsing a conservative alternative to Obamacare. How long is he willing to wait? When can we fairly call him on it if such an alternative isn't forthcoming?
Me, personally, well. I think what is taken for libertarian or conservative economic policy is flatly incompatible with the goal of covering all people. The "free market," as conventionally defined, can't provide adequate, affordable coverage to the sick or the old or the infirm. I'm happy to be proven wrong, though. So ante up. Show me your version. I don't love Obamacare. I think it's a weak, insufficient compromise. But I had to set aside my dissatisfaction in order to support a qualified improvement. I think others can do the same.

You should name the pundits you have in mind.
- February 2, 2011 at 12:08 AM
How about the Swiss system? Or Singapore? Both better than the crap that will be repealed two years from now.
Of course, I could make a similar "bad faith" accusation, and that is that Leftists don't really care (any more than they have to) about managing costs when it comes to health care. They really proceed from a more ideological and moral "program requirements" perspective instead of a "budget" perspective, with the idea that whatever is costs to achieve those requirements is tautologically justified and taxes should be raised to whatever levels are necessary to pay for it. If the real cost of those reckless promises falls on future generations instead of us, well, sucks to be them. Most of the concern with "budget deficit projections" and such is the half-hearted pandering needed to get the foot of socialized medicine permanently lodged in the door. What most leftists want is more taxes and more spending to cover the presently uninsured.
But maybe I'm wrong in my impression. Here's the test. Remedy my concerns. Promise me, in the very design of the law, that the burden of this program will not explode out of control. In fact - strictly control it. Make government health-care conform to a capitation-like hard-budget system, like every other program has to. "Here's the amount of money you've got to spend this year, you won't get any more regardless of what patients ask for. Do the best you can, the most good for the most, with what you're given, but after that we say "no more". "Spread the health care" instead of "Spread the wealth".
We are, for example, constantly told how other countries are able to provide well for all with a much smaller expenditure. "10% of GDP" is actually near the top of the developed world. Finland does it for 7%, Japan for 8%, Sweden for 9%. And these are the older "demographic collapse" countries who should be having an ever harder time than us, right?
Well fine then. Let's set maximum American Health Care expenditures at 10% GDP in exchange for socialist medicine. We could use the Ezekiel Emmanuel Health Care Rationing system or whatever variation you like. Right away, we would be saving a cool $800 Billion a year over what we're spending now. That could almost balance the budget without raising taxes. (I'm ignoring negative secondary effects, but I'm also ignoring positive secondary effects, so let's assume they wash). That's enough savings for even someone like me to be perfectly willing to abandon employer-provided and market medicine. I would exempt people who are willing to pay extra amounts out of their own money for extra services not provided by the government.
You see - it's called a "bargain" - you get something (care for all), you give up something (2011 American levels of health spending for those that currently enjoy it). I give up the market and my constitutional rights to make choices for myself, but I get enormous savings every year and a future cost-guarantee to assuage my worries. Deal.
And the beauty of it is, no matter what happens to demographics or medical innovation, the costs stay proportionately bearable according to the capacity of the generation paying the bills - it is "care" in the form of goods and services that compromises with the budget, not the other way around.
It preserves something like "balance" (or equal marginal rates of substitution) in our various important government expenditures, and is also makes sure the remainder of economic resources are available for all the other programs and investments we need to accomplish as a society instead of hitching our budget trailer to the most uncontrollable and emotionally-sensitive expense.
The problem, up to now, is that, because of "bad faith" on both sides, and also "bad blood", no one is even willing to work with the other side to make this deal. Too bad.

Freddie, you're not going to get most reactionaries to ante up with their own solutions because they're too busy screaming about careening down the road to serfdom. And as you suggest, they really have no interest in insuring citizens, because at bottom they don't perceive medical care as a human right. They do like to describe ad nauseum how the mandate is different from requiring car insurance, because people don't have to buy cars and driving on the roads is a "privilege, not a right" (I shit you not), although someone born and living on a windswept plain a hundred miles from the nearest town might disagree. We'll be treated to a lot more of this dreck as the showdown at the Supreme Court draws near, I'm sure.
- February 2, 2011 at 11:21 AM
And one could take the same question to the "Progressives" who still lament the failure of the People's Mass Strategic Objective Public Option and consider PPACA to be a subsidy of insurance companies. The actual human beings who get coverage or to use a public health clinic or to enter medicare under this program are apparently nothing in the world of the Fake Left. And this is another case where they have a surface disagreement with the Right, but agree on substance.

- Batocchio said...
Bravo. I agree completely, and wrestle with this issue often. By all means, an issue should be discussed on the merits, but when faced by someone with a dishonorable track record, say Newt Gingrich or Betsy McCoughey, it's folly to expect them to argue in good faith. Anyone debating them on air should prepare for their favored lies of the week. After a certain point, ignoring obvious bad faith – or ignoring obvious motive – feels like enforced naiveté, unworthy of adult conversation. Our mainstream press struggles to deal with liars, and the problem with our national discourse is a lack of honesty, accuracy and fact-checking rather than a lack of "civility." That's unless we define civility as "not lying," since dissembling about important public policy is awfully offensive. However, the chattering class generally views anyone who accurately calls out a liar as terribly uncivil. They recoil because they judge a statement by its harshness, or by its target (one of their own), not its accuracy.
Substantive critiques are always good, and most bad ideas can be exposed this way. However, most policy discussions – to the extent policy versus politics is ever discussed on air – rarely discuss the likely consequences of policy proposals, and that old question - cui bono, who benefits? Those should be included. If someone makes a really bad policy argument, it's only natural for the listener to ask, why did he or she make it? The sincere-but-wrong, the sincere-but-of-different-opinion, and the sincere-but-not-well-informed tend to discuss issues in a different manner than the professional liars. Generally, it's not hard to tell a wonk from a hack. Also, average citizens are typically more honest and sincere (whether wrong or right) than pundits and politicians. It shouldn't be forbidden to point out that different parties have competing interests. For instance, insurance companies want to maximize profits, but their agenda may be in conflict with the interests of the citizenry, who want good health care. Republicans wanted to deny Obama a political victory on health care reform, although the alternative was doing something to benefit their own constituents and sharing in the glory. Their "tort reform" proposal was a drop in the bucket and wholly inadequate. No Republican leader discussed health care around the world and the benefits and drawbacks of other models honestly. There was no attempt at crafting good policy from them. Instead, we got charges of socialism and death panels. (If that's not enough, there's also the infamous Bill Kristol and Frank Luntz memos that prove bad faith on health care reform.)
I think pressing opponents for their "plan" is wise from the very start. "Here's a problem; you don't like my proposal, fine – then what's your solution?" In the, um, reality-based community, theory informs practice and vice versa, constantly. One of the hallmarks of bad faith is when someone keeps hawking a talking point, or dogma, long after it's been disproven. (This is a good example in economic and fiscal policy.) Sometimes that insistence is due to zealotry, but more often it's because what they were saying was BS. Their argument was merely ammunition for a political outcome – most commonly, preventing any solution to an important problem – it was not an argument for better policy. Personally, I expect to keep wrestling with these issues and trying to find the best approach, but there should be a way to address lying and bad faith.
(By the way, I'm assuming from your blog title you're a fan of Camus.)

Trying to predict Clemson games this season has been about as useful as a knife in a gun fight, but why not give it another go. Clemson is coming off one of its most embarrassing losses in recent memory, and NC State is rolling into town with a division title in their sights. How motivated Clemson is in this game could go a long way in determining the outcome.
Clemson offense vs. NC State defense
Clemson's offense was nothing short of a disgrace last week. Kyle Parker had possibly his worst game at Clemson, barely completing half his passes and throwing two drive-killing interceptions. But who can blame him? Apparently Boston College knew what was coming. The onus is on offensive coordinator Billy Napier to mix it up a little better this week, lest the Tigers have another week of offensive ineptitude. As if the Tigers performance last week wasn't bad enough, they learned after the game that they would be without running back Andre Ellington for at least two weeks. Jamie Harper will finally get his chance to prove that he can be a legitimate rushing threat, and his play will greatly affect Clemson's. Dwayne Allen had perhaps his best game last week, and Parker needs to continue to use him. The receivers had a couple of costly drops last week, including a third down drop by DeAndre Hopkins that could have gotten the Tigers deep into the red zone. They will have to step it up this week. The Wolfpack defense hasn't been great, but it's probably good enough to hold what Clemson calls an offense in check. State's linebackers are its best unit, led by fifth-year senior Nate Irving, one of the ACC's best defensive players. Audie Cole and Terrell Manning are solid as well. The defensive line is nothing to write home about, but junior tackle J.R. Sweezy has been impressive. The secondary is young, but sophomore safety Earl wolff is a budding superstar.
Key matchup: Harper vs. NC State linebackers
With Ellington out, Harper undoubtedly becomes the key player in this entire game. If he can run downhill and pick up consistent yardage, maybe he can bring these guys close enough to the line for the Tigers to stumble into some passing success.
Advantage: North Carolina State
NC State offense vs. Clemson defense
The Wolfpack have the No. 15 passing offense in the country, and it all starts with dual-threat quarterback Russell Wilson (19 touchdown passes). If Clemson's history against running quarterbacks is any indication, it may appear that the Pack also have the No. 15 rushing offense. Wilson's top targets are seniors Owen Spencer and Jarvis Williams. At 6-foot-3 and 6-foot-4 respectively, these two will provide the Clemson secondary with its toughest test since Miami. The Wolfpack also boast an all-conference caliber tight end in George Bryan (22 catches, three touchdowns). True freshman Mustafa Greene (495 yards, four touchdowns) has stabilized State's running game. Clemson's defense shut Boston College out in the second half, and hopefully they can carry that momentum into this game, because stopping NC State will be a tough task. Da'Quan Bowers wasn't up to his usual standard last game, but he will need to make his presence felt in this one. The front four has to keep contain and pressure Wilson simultaneously because he can beat you on the ground or through the air. Clemson's linebackers need to keep the running game in check because DeAndre McDaniel and Rashard Hall will need to be able to focus on slowing State's receivers down. Clemson will need an all-around defensive effort in this game.
Key Matchup: Wilson vs. Clemson's front seven
Wilson is just as great a threat on the ground as he is in the passing game. Clemson has to keep his feet in check and force him into some mistakes through the air. The last thing you want is for the secondary to have to make plays in the run game.
Advantage: Push
Special Teams
After being great all year, Clemson finally had its special teams meltdown. Chandler Catanzaro missed two field goals, and Harper fumbled away a kickoff return. Richard Jackson is taking over place-kicking duties this week, and Dawson Zimmerman will continue to punt. Clemson may need some big plays in the return game to swing the momentum on Saturday. Andy Leffler has been a solid punter for the Wolfpack, and kicker Josh Czajkowski has made 12 of his 15 field goal attempts. The Wolfpack are yet to make any big plays in the return game.
Advantage: Clemson
Clemson's division title hopes suffered a crushing blow last week, and motivation may be at a minimum for the Tigers. Clemson is the more talented team, but that is yet to matter this season (or any other season). Russell Wilson is a stud, and Clemson is missing its only playmaker. I don't expect the Tigers to go quietly, but I think NC State will be on a mission.
North Carolina State 24 Clemson 17

Re: Query
To Whom It May Concern,
I heard that your not reading Young Adult manuscripts right now, but mine is so terrific that you will definitely reconsider. I am currently an unpublished writer trying to hire an agent for my fiction novel, which is sure to make a lot of money. I have tried probably a billion times to sell my novel, but I get nothing but rejections from publishers so I guess I have to go the "agent route" even if that means being forced to pay a comission. As you may or may not know the writing market has really taken a dive lately, so you will be surprised to find out that, after 58 years of honning my craft, I have as yet to "make it." But that's a whole nother story!
My 840,000 word Young Adult fictional manuscript starts off with Chapter 1. Chapter 1 is only 35 pages long and is a very detailed description of the weather, which is important (as you may or may not know) for establishing the mood. The next chapter (Chapter 2) is where the "meat" of the story begins! In it, the hero (female) comes home from school and has dinner with her parents. After talking with her folks about school and what classes she likes and what her homework is, she goes to watch TV, but her little brother is hogging it. They get in a fight and then the Mom tells them to calm down. Suddenly the phone rings! It is the principal to tell her (the hero's) parents what a terific student she is. So she relaxes and says, "Ah, this is the life!" But as it turns out, she is actually a vampire! We learn this in Chapter 5.
The plot thickens in Chapter 12 when she falls in love one day with a boy at school. But he is NOT a vampire, and so she feels conflicted. They do not have sex because she is worried she might bite him during it and "accidentally" turn him into a vampire too (although I can happily add a sex scene, if you think it will sell). You are probably asking yourself, "This sounds familiar?" as this might sound very similar to a very similar novel already out there which I will heretofore leave unmentionable, but it is NOT, it is TOTALLY DIFFERENT, because the girl is the vampire, not the boy. Will the hero (female) and the other hero (male) ever have sex? You will have to read the entire novel to find out!!
Please let me known immediately (don't take months to answer this, just a simple yes or no) if you are interested into representing my novel "MOIST ARMS" as how could you not be since I am obviously tapping into a very HOT genra. Please be advise that this novel is COPYRIGHT so you cannot take it and pass it off as your own, or I WILL SUE. Also, this is NOT based on a true story, so any potential film makers who will want to make it into a movie don't have to buy life rights or anything.
You're website said to query first before sending the complete ms, but I did you a favor and pasted the entire novel into the body of the email below in case you wanted to "dive right in." I can still give you one of my self-published copies quickly if you want that, however, since I live only three and a half blocks from your office. I have enclosed a picture of me so you will recogize me when I come to see you.
Best wishes,
P.S. This can be a series, just give me the nod and I'll start writing book 2 of 10.
P.P.S. I also sent a copy to Oprah so if she picks my book I am going to need a publisher STAT! So please prioritize.
P.P.P.S. Let me know if you find my picture attractive.

Google Glass is the next big thing in portable technology—-a wearable computer with an optical head-mounted display. Programming Google Glass is your all-inclusive guidebook for crafting your own Glassware using the Mirror API.
You'll start by setting up a production-ready service using Google App Engine, then provide Glass users an authorization to your Glassware. You'll learn how to handle the provided credentials, and from there you'll dive into the parts that make up the Glass interface, managing the timeline and creating cards and menu items. Next you'll create services where the user can interact with your server, such as geolocation tracking, change notifications, and custom menu options. You'll use this information to create a sophisticated application that suggests local restaurants. You'll see how to attach or detach assets, images, and video, and learn the basics of the emerging field of optical-display design. You'll see how to properly design new Glassware and update existing applications to become Glassware.
Now is the best time to be an early adopter of a technology that will only become more advanced, nuanced, and ubiquitous.
What You Need
You will need a Google Glass device and Java 1.6 or greater. An Android device, like a smart phone or tablet, is also helpful, but not necessary.

Comments and Reviews
—Jason Salas Coauthor of "Think for Glass: Discover, Design, Develop"
Eric's writing captures the spirit of Glassware development with honesty, wit, and charm—peppered with a healthy dose of insider tricks and techniques for quickly building effective wearable computing services that coders of all levels will appreciate.
—Jim Wilson Author of "Node.js the Right Way"
This insightful book opened my eyes to the potential of Google Glass in a big way. Glassware is going to be huge, and this book gives you the tools to make it.
—Steven Mitchell Glass Explorer
A great read and learning resource. You start with a small project and build it into a full-fledged Glassware application, learning all about the Mirror API along the way.
—Marissa Anderson Principal Developer Electrozoic
I really enjoyed your book; you successfully convinced me to buy Glass and start learning as much about it as I can. It's not like the tech is going to disappear if I ignore it!
—Mark Billinghurt Director HIT Lab NZ, University of Canterbury
This is a great introduction to the Google Glass Mirror API. Any serious Google Glass developer will want to get a copy of this book.

We just finished our Memorial Day feast. Hotdogs and corn on the grill, fruit salad, and potato salad. Daniel even toasted the hotdog buns! Fruit salad tip: If your fruit isn't perfectly ripe pour margarita mix all over the fruit salad, and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours. You will not believe how good it tastes.
Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day to you too. Your feast looks totally yummy!
Mmm, corn.
I love your comments more than I love chocolate (almost).

I had the pleasure of meeting a Sports Information Director from Martin, Tenn., the university in that town, one night following at women's basketball game at Eastern Illinois University. At Eastern, I'm a beat writer for the women's basketball team, pursuing my life's dream of being a sports writer. I met this SID and talked to him for about 15 to 20 minutes, waiting for the Tennessee-Martin head coach to leave the locker room and come talk to me.
He kept asking me what I wanted to do with my life. "So you work at the campus newspaper, what do you want to do with that?" I explained to him how badly I want to become a sports writer. He then asked if journalism or writing was something that came from my family. It doesn't. My two parents and older brother work at State Farm Insurance Company. But they love it. If they didn't love it, I'm convinced they wouldn't be working there. I love sports and journalism. I love the two even more when put together.
We talked about my family, after I explained to him how they all work at State Farm. This SID had an brother who works at State Farm, too, but not in the same location. As we continued to talk, he said something that I will likely always remember, yet have always known. He said his brother, my brother and parents, don't get to have fun like we do. Hell, we get to watch sports for a living, talk to the athletes, talk to the coaches, learn the games, and arguably know more about the team than anybody else does. We get to have fun. We get to live in the sports moments we've all watched growing up.
When we get together with friends, we get to talk about our job with a giant smile on our faces because we get to say, "I was there … I talked to him (or her) after that game (match, etc.)" Somebody gets to tell the story of how they covered the Music City Miracle game between the Tennessee Titans and Buffalo Bills. Somebody gets to tell the story of how they talked to Joe Montana after "The Catch" game. Somebody gets to tell the story about how they were the first to know — to break the news — when Magic Johnson announced he had HIV or when Michael Jordan retired.
Those are sports journalists. I'm a sports journalist. That's why I want to be a sports writer.
I'm Alex McNamee. Thanks for listening.

Please add your name and desired quantity to the list if you are interested: http://www.midibox.o..._pcb_bulk_order
The estimated price is ca. 10..20 EUR, depending on the quantity. I will order the PCBs end of november, so that you should receive them before christmas!
Again some good news:
Due to the high demand I decided to hand over the bulk order to Tim aka. SmashTV!
This has some advantages:
- I give it into the hands of a professional (he already improved the Gerber Files! )
- you can order the MBHP_CORE_LPC17 and MBSEQV4L FrontPanel PCB from a single source
- you will be able to order the PCBs from the Low Value Order Page
Shipping costs to Europe (e.g. Germany): ca. 5 EUR
- PCBs will be available by end of november
- Long-Term availability of both PCBs!
All people who have already added their name to the bulk order list will be informed via PM once the PCBs are available. Therefore it still makes sense to enter your name if you are interested.
Best Regards, Thorsten.
Best Regards, Thorsten.

Add wall cabinets for more storage
Have you ever been late in the morning because you could not find your makeup brush? Are you always rushing out of the door because you were trying to find your watch amidst the mess? For the day to go on smoothly one has to be organized and keep things in order. Moreover, it is going to be difficult if there is no storage space to keep things tidy. What you need is storage unit in your bathroom to keep things handy.
In this blog post, we will give multiple wall cabinet options that will help you find things at a hand's reach.
Glass wall cabinet
For a simple, sleek look check out Foremost Palermo bathroom wall cabinet in 23 inches that can store the toiletries, makeup and accessories. The open shelf in the Euro-style vanity is great to store frequently used items like watch, earrings, brush etc. The dark espresso finish blends with any décor in the bathroom.
If you are looking to add one in a lighter hue we would recommend Foremost wall mounted cabinet in premium antique white color. This cabinet has lowered doors and adjustable shelves to accommodate all of your stuff.
Another cool option is the Chesterfield 2-door wall cabinet that has etched glass doors and multiple shelves. By mounting it next to the bathroom mirror you can keep your things in the appropriate place in the evening and can reach for it in the morning.
Bamboo bathroom top
If you do not have enough space in the bathroom to mount a cabinet then you can consider the Taren Bamboo vanity cabinet with travertine top for vessel sink. The vanity is made of solid bamboo and contains an open shelf and couple of drawers to store your items.
Are you considering revamping your bathroom décor? Will you be adding more storage space? Please share your comments below!
