DC Ticker on ABC News: Burton, Buy; Sessions, Sell
For some time, I've had a mostly daily feature on my Twitter feed called DC Ticker, in which I issue buy or sell orders for various political and policy players. It's amusing (I hope) shorthand for who's trending up or down, according to the news of the moment. I keep the assessment non-ideological. Some Twitter followers were irritated recently when I issued a buy order for Karl Rove, but this rating was based on the increasing influence of the billionaire-funded super-PAC he has put together to exploit the Citizens United decision and assist GOP candidates in the 2010 congressional campaigns.
Now, DC Ticker is expanding. ABC News White House correspondent Jake Tapper is starting a weekly digital show today. It's called Political Punch, which happens to be the name of his rather good blog. Each edition of the PP show will include a DC Ticker report from me. Part of the fun so far in compiling the DC Ticker has been in not explaining the picks. Often, the reasoning is obvious (if you pay attention to political developments). But not always. Occasionally, if enough people ask, I might offer an explanation. But there's no guarantee. The producers of Tapper's new show, though, have requested transparency for DC Ticker. So here's a brief run-down of the choices and the whys.
* Bill Burton, buy. Lots of chatter of late about White House press secretary Robert Gibbs leaving his post for another White House gig or to head the Democratic National Committee. Burton, the assistant press secretary, is in line to take Gibb's place at the podium (though there are others presumably in contention).
* Rep. Pete Sessions, sell. He heads the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee. With a flurry of articles saying, well, the Democrats just may be able to hold on to the House majority, his stock is slipping.
* John McCain, sell. A New Yorker piece contained a telling nugget: McCain dressing down Sen. Lindsey Graham, a fellow Republican, for trying to steal McCain's "maverick" label. High school, anyone?
* Anthony Kennedy, buy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's a new Supreme Court Justice named Elena Kagan, and she is a she. But as the court opens its term this week, Kennedy remains the main swinger on this bench.
* Jon Stewart, buy. At the start of this week, nearly 200,000 people had declared on Facebook that they will attend his Rally To Restore Sanity on October 30 in Washington, DC. Whether this event is serious or a stunt, Stewart wins: he'll get plenty of media attention this month and, best of all, a ratings hike. (For my quasi-serious take on Stewartpalooza, see here.)
You can receive my almost-daily DC Ticker report by following my Twitter feed. (#DCticker is the Twitter hashtag.) Please feel free to argue with my selections—though all decisions of the judges are final. And please feel free to make suggestions for buy or sell orders in the comments below or on Twitter (by replying to @DavidCornDC). And there's this: DC Ticker is merely an advisory service. It and its author cannot be held liable for any investments made in politicians, policy wonks, or government officials on the basis of the information presented.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- Over the past decade, the number of concealed-carry gun permits in Kentucky has risen from 11,000 issued in 2004 to 60,000 issued in 2013.
The Kentucky Enquirer reports the increase has happened as Kentucky's General Assembly has made it easier to own and carry guns. Law changes include allowing people to have concealed guns in their cars and elimination of a six-month residency requirement for a concealed-carry license.
Kentucky's gun laws have ranked consistently among the country's most lenient. The law Center to Prevent Gun Violence gave the state an "F" rating.
But state lawmakers say loosening gun laws is popular among their constituents, some of whom are concerned about self-defense and others of whom are worried that the federal government will move to restrict gun ownership.

Predicting out of intensive care unit cardiopulmonary arrest or death using electronic medical record data

BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making 2013, 13:28 doi:10.1186/1472-6947-13-28Published: 27 February 2013
Accurate, timely and automated identification of patients at high risk for severe clinical deterioration using readily available clinical information in the electronic medical record (EMR) could inform health systems to target scarce resources and save lives.
We identified 7,466 patients admitted to a large, public, urban academic hospital between May 2009 and March 2010. An automated clinical prediction model for out of intensive care unit (ICU) cardiopulmonary arrest and unexpected death was created in the derivation sample (50% randomly selected from total cohort) using multivariable logistic regression. The automated model was then validated in the remaining 50% from the total cohort (validation sample). The primary outcome was a composite of resuscitation events, and death (RED). RED included cardiopulmonary arrest, acute respiratory compromise and unexpected death. Predictors were measured using data from the previous 24 hours. Candidate variables included vital signs, laboratory data, physician orders, medications, floor assignment, and the Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), among other treatment variables.
RED rates were 1.2% of patient-days for the total cohort. Fourteen variables were independent predictors of RED and included age, oxygenation, diastolic blood pressure, arterial blood gas and laboratory values, emergent orders, and assignment to a high risk floor. The automated model had excellent discrimination (c-statistic=0.85) and calibration and was more sensitive (51.6% and 42.2%) and specific (94.3% and 91.3%) than the MEWS alone. The automated model predicted RED 15.9 hours before they occurred and earlier than Rapid Response Team (RRT) activation (5.7 hours prior to an event, p=0.003)
An automated model harnessing EMR data offers great potential for identifying RED and was superior to both a prior risk model and the human judgment-driven RRT.

Is there a way to include a sidebar in a page using a shortcode?
Basically, I have a site with a sidebar which needs to have the same content on each page (2 image links - I am using a plugin for this) and the sidebar needs to appear at the top right of the page - all pretty simple and standard so far......
...but on the home page I need the sidebar to appear a little way down the page (some of the editable page content needs to appear ABOVE the sidebar).
Basically, what I am thinking is if I use a page template to display the home page without a sidebar, I could then use a shortcode in the page content itself to place the sidebar wherever I need it (in this case, after the first couple of paragraphs and an image).
Something like...
[sidebar "primary-sidebar"]
...would be ideal!
But... is this possible?!
Thanks for any help :)

VERGENNES — The Vergennes Union High School boys' basketball team defeated visiting Middlebury on Friday, 52-36, accomplishing two things in the process.
The 10-8 Commodores completed a four-game sweep of county rivals Mount Abraham and MUHS, never an easy task, and they also ended the 1-17 Tigers' hopes of reaching the Division II playoffs.
Despite the frustrations that are inevitable in a one-win season, Tiger coach Chris Altemose found some bright spots on Friday.
MIDDLEBURY — Most Addison County students will spend their upcoming winter break week chilling at home and hanging out with friends. But several of their peers will be spending that time doing some heavy lifting for a humanitarian cause a few thousand miles away from the Green Mountain State.
The local high school students later this week will be winging their way to Honduras, where they will help a struggling community that continues to rebuild its infrastructure a dozen years after being devastated by Hurricane Mitch.

MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury selectmen took a big step toward retaining a major, growing local business on Monday at a regular selectboard meeting when they offered to waive sewer and water tap-on fees for an expansion project being considered by Green Mountain Beverage (GMB) on Pond Lane.
BRISTOL — Addison County lawmakers on Monday joined a growing chorus of critics of Vermont Yankee and served notice that the Vernon-based nuclear power plant's chances of receiving a license renewal in 2012 have taken a substantial hit.
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury Union High School may temporarily expand its district boundaries by several thousand miles to help educate as many as six Haitian students whose own schools were reduced to rubble by the devastating Jan. 12 earthquake.
BRISTOL — The Mount Abraham Union High School board of directors is faced with a quandary these days: Continuing to subsidize the high school's in-house lunch program is an expensive prospect, but making changes to the food service program could come at the cost of local control and current employees' benefits.

Monday was supposed to be the deadline to sign up for Obamacare, but now some people get an extension.
After a surge in visitors to the web site healthcare.gov, more than 100,000 people stumbled across glitches and other technical issues on the site.
So the administration is giving them an extension.
Those on the site were told to wait to apply for coverage and were given the option to receive an e-mail stating when they could return to their sign up process.
"Basically if you had trouble signing up so if you tried to apply and you've gotten error messages or it's kicked you out numerous times then they're allowing those people to go to the extend mid-April deadline," says Lindsey Green, outreach and enrollment coordinator with Ritchie Regional Health,
For those needing the sign up extension their coverage will begin May 1.
Both the Good Samaritan Clinic and the Ritchie Regional Health Center in Parkersburg are offering help to those who need it.

text: Gallup Thinks Unemployment Is Falling, Too Its numbers are even better than the government's By John Johnson, Newser Staff Posted Oct 17, 2012 1:15 PM CDT STORY COMMENTS (46) (Newser) – Nobody tell Jack Welch. Gallup is out with unemployment numbers lending credence to the official government figures. In fact, Gallup's numbers are even stronger: It puts unemployment at 7.3% in mid-October, down from 7.9% in September and the lowest since Gallup began daily tracking in January 2010. Adjusted for the season, the number is higher at 7.7%. Not all the news is rosy in the survey: It has the percentage of part-time workers who would rather work full time at 9.0% in October, up from 8.6% the previous month. Still, the overall results are "more evidence that the official 7.8% unemployment rate is not the wild outlier people initially thought," writes Joe Weisenthal at Business Insider. Dozens of job-seekers line up to enter a National Career Fair in New York last February.

|The Old Maid - My Delia Dilemma - The Old Maid - My Delia Dilemma In my first reading of The Old Maid, I found it hard to dissect the character of Delia. Edith Wharton made me work hard to figure Delia out by not spelling her out directly, but bringing her on gradually. After subsequent readings however, I saw this story as a sort of coming of age story about Delia Lovell and not about an old maid. Although the title is surely meant to reflect our feelings for the character of Charlotte, whom it seemed was destined to become an old maid in the eyes of Delia, Wharton uses the character of Charlotte as does Delia, to tell a story of a woman who gets a second chance and does everything in her power not to mess it up...

Plight of Women in Sweat by Zora Neal Hurston

Delia turns out to be an empowered woman who has built her own home, handles her family's finances, works hard, and takes pleasure in the results of her hard work. The fascinating fact about Delia whom I believe represents women in general, is that she was able to establish and maintain a home despite being married to an inconsiderate husband who only brought a longing for the flesh instead of love into the relationship (699)....

How can something we think is stated so clearly become misunderstood or confusing to the persons we are stating the message to. Let's examine the definition of communication. Defined by the freedictionary.com; communication is the exchange of thoughts, messages, or information, as by speech, signals, writing, or behavior. Merriam-Webster defines communication as an act or instance of transmitting and an exchange of information.... [tags: Ideas, Thoughts, Speaker]

This rapper energizes these indecencies, as well as raps about them, lecturing about the positives to his audience. It's turned into a regular thing to learn about how young teens are passing away at music festivals because of drug overdose. If people don't come to terms with the dangers, there will only be more injuries that may lead to even worse.

- Are contortionists really different from ordinary people. The truth is there is not really anything different between the two; except for the fact a contortionist is extremely flexible. A lot of people think that contortionists are freaks because they can bend it unusual ways, but they are actually just regular people. The reason why everyone considers them to be freaks is because there are many myths created about them that are proven incorrect. Contortionism comes with many myths and unique styles, however, contortionists have special bones and ligaments, and their spines are a little different than a regular person.... [tags: Art ]

Milton's Paradise Lost
- Milton's Paradise Lost has been praised as being the greatest English epic of all time, most stunningly in its author's depiction of the parents of humanity, Adam and Eve. How Milton chose to portray the original mother and father has been a focus of much criticism with contemporary readers. One of the main subjects of these comments is in reference to Eve, who, according to many, is a trivial character that is most definitely inferior to her mate. Nonetheless, many do not recognize that, after the fateful Fall, she becomes a much more evolved character.... [tags: Milton's Paradise Lost]

Elizabeth Siddal
- Elizabeth Siddal, Pre-Raphaelite model and wife to Gabriel Rossetti, is the source of intrigue for many Victorian researchers. Her mystery began from her vague background as a milliner's assistant. From the start, many stories were told of her discovery and yet few stories were told of her past before that point. A frail young woman, she was addicted to narcotics and suffered from a variety of ailments, from the physical to the mental. Her turbulent relationship with Rossetti was plagued with ups and downs, and yet after her death, he mourned her with great sorrow and guilt.... [tags: essays research papers fc]

The subject of a 24-hour manhunt was sent to Wayne County Jail, Wednesday, with bail set at $5,000.
The subject of a 24-hour manhunt was sent to Wayne County Jail, Wednesday, with bail set at $5,000.
Tyler Davis, 19, of Penn Yan was reportedly taken into custody around noon Wednesday by state police.
Davis, a former Avoca resident, led law enforcement on a chase through the thickly wooded hills between Avoca Central School and County Route 7. According to state police, Davis grew up on the county road and still has family and friends there.
The manhunt began Tuesday when police responded to a report around 1:50 p.m. of a suspicious vehicle parked in a cemetery near Avoca Central School.
Davis then fled the scene, disappearing into the 500 square-acre wooded area.
At the time of the search, law enforcement was concerned Davis might be armed with a hand gun and advised school officials of the incident. The school went on lockdown, remaining in their classrooms until they were dismissed just before 4 p.m.
Davis was found around 12:30 p.m. Wednesday on County Route 7 and taken into custody. Troopers said he was unarmed at the time of his arrest.
Davis was first charged in Avoca Town Court with fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property and unlawful possession of marijuana.
He was then transported to the town of Macedon, in Wayne County, where he was charged with fourth-degree Grand Larceny in connection with the alleged theft of a privately owned four-door Jeep, according to the Macedon police department.
Davis was remanded to Wayne County Jail, on $5,000 bail, and is scheduled to appear in court at 1 p.m. Oct. 16.

I am curious, basically, if fat is a draw on the cardiovascular system when under load.
Or does fat just "go along for the ride," and it only burdens the system in the sense of being dead weight to carry?
I am curious, basically, if fat is a draw on the cardiovascular system when under load.
Or does fat just "go along for the ride," and it only burdens the system in the sense of being dead weight to carry?
My gut instinct is that muscle would be more vascularized than fat. Even if it isn't, the function of fat is to store energy, while the function of muscle requires using energy, and also requires more oxygen supply to support the use of that energy, so if someone has gained a lot of lean muscle mass while losing fat, without adjusting their nutrient intake, I would think it's possible to develop anemia...especially if their iron intake was just borderline sufficient in the first place (if they had been consuming excess already, it might not matter).
No, adipose tissue is not very vascular.
It is vascularized. During exercise, the blood flow gets shifted. Blood flow goes to the skin to vent off excess heat. It goes to the working muscles and heart. Blood flow tends to really drop for other part of the body like the gut and so on. Fat like the gut, would take up some but very, very little.
According to Wikipedia: "Adipose tissue contains many small blood vessels."
If it weren't vascularized, it would die. But, being mostly inactive and not requiring lots of oxygen, it's minimal, thus allowing procedures like liposuction to be relatively safe.
Fat is pretty vascular, not as much as muscle, but still there. As mentioned above there is some shunting with exercise, but that mostly is from the internal organs. As you warm up, there will be increased blood supply to the skin, which is lined by fat, so there really is not a tremendous amount of shunting from fat. Depending on how deep the fat is, it can be quite vascular. I have seen some tremendous size vessels supplying the fat stores of some big folks.
If you are looking for the adverse effects of fat, I think there might be other impacts to consider:
Fat makes it harder for body to cool off and you reach the point quicker when body overheats and shuts down to protect itself.
If it is really a lot of extra fat it becomes very hard to do ~90+ RPM, which is needed to maintain high power for long time.
Sexual organs are made of adipose tissue. Just saying.
Brown fat has mitochondria, so probably more vascular
It's vascularized, of course.
The amazing rule of thumb is that one pound of fat generates SEVEN MILES of new blood vessels. (Amazing facts about your heart health and blood sugar - New York Healthy diet | Examiner.com). While it is true that much of the blood supply is preferentially shunted to working muscle during strenous exercise, this likely does but some burden on the heart to continue to pump blood through these vessels, in addition to increasing the workload (and oxygen demand) of the working muscles just because of the additional weight being moved.
Guess I shouldn't have had that cookie at lunch after all...
A Douglas Felts, MD, FAAFP
I read a long time ago that a pound of fat has 7 miles of blood vessels.

snooki and jwoww
But snookie just had her baby and the LC came to see her. They asked the LC about the pump and dump theory and the LC actually said it was true that if she has more than 1 drink you have to pump and dump the next feeding... ummm i thought it was safe to drive safe to nurse?
Quoting Baby_Avas_Momma:
Clearly the LC had no idea what she's saying, lol.
Quoting MommyO2-6631:
And a million people probably watched this show! I hate people giving incorrect info on here let alone on a very popular tv show!
Quoting Baby_Avas_Momma:
Clearly the LC had no idea what she's saying, lol.
Very sad that advice still perpetuates. Just another reason Breastfeeding is made to sound "too hard, too inconvenient".
Safe to drive, safe to nurse. If you're buzzed, wait a couple hours.

Quoting tabi_cat1023:

Just more bad info out there. I hate that they put stuff like that on tv especially knowing so many young women watch that show. Lots of young women get that bad info & decide not to breastfeed. I liked how they showed Kim Kardashian using her sisters breastmilk to cure her psoriasis on the last episode of Kim & Kortney take Miami.

What are Mineral Rights?
Mineral rights are owning the rights to minerals
under the surface of a piece of land. Owning these
rights allows you to drill and mine for them or not,
depending on your preference. You can sell or lease
them as well, should a mineral company want to
recover the material. In the United States, mineral
rights often accompany surface rights so that when
you buy a piece of land, you're buying rights to
what's on the surface and what's underneath.
However, it is possible to sever the two. Whether
you are acquiring mineral rights when you buy land
should be listed in the deed or on other paperwork,
which should be on record with the local
What are Minerals?
Minerals are anything below the surface. However, no official definition exists. Oil and natural gas might be minerals,
along with coal, clay, silver, gold, copper, natural gas, salt and any other material below the surface. Sales agreements and
leases must clarify what exactly is meant by "mineral" because vague wording can lead to legal disagreements when it
comes time to drill or mine.

I had settled on Simplicty 2936 (http://sewing.patternreview.com/cgi-bin/patterns/sewingpatterns.pl?patternid=18336) and planned to use some pink cotton lawn from my stash. I'm looking at the short puffy sleeved version with a collar. I plan to do the tucks or darts in the back, but only add them to the front later if desired. (post babyweight loss.) The pink is a very classic soft pink. I'm ready for something classic just now.
However, I was about to cut and realized that the fabric is quite sheer. Now I'm having second thoughts. Is this pattern still great for a semi-sheer fabric? Should I line the blouse? Is it wierd to line a blouse? Or should I just wear a cami under it? I would be greatful for some opinions.
I actually do line some blouses with ambiance. I tried silk organza but it was too scratchy and stiff. I'm not fond of camis unless it's winter and I'm wearing them for warmth.
I should say that I always make princess seam blouses so it's easy to keep the shape of the lining close to the shape of the blouse and there's not a lot of shifting. If I was making the "shirt-type" with just a bust dart the results might be different.

Oprah's 'Favorite Things' in Her Journalism Career
Oprah's career as host of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" has spanned decades, making for many memorable moments. In conjunction with the announcement of ceasing production of her talk show in September 2011, the woman who has come to be known as Lady O selected her "Top 20 Moments."
Of all of the celebrity guests she has welcomed to her studio, one in particular stands out. Oprah nominated Mary Tyler Moore as her "Favorite Celebrity Woman" for her surprise appearance in 1997. A dedicated viewer of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," Oprah was inspired by Mary and blown away when she unexpectedly read her name on the teleprompter to cue the star to walk on stage.
Oprah has launched several projects that she holds very close to her heart. In 1996, the famous "Oprah's Book Club" was established to promote literacy and inspire people to read. To this day, viewers continue to rely on Oprah's advice on what book to pick up next. With the evolution of technology, the book club has grown into an interactive forum for the host to connect with fans by means of Skype.
Founded in 1997, the Angel Network set out to raise money to afford 50 students the opportunity to attend college. By the conclusion of that television season, $3.5 million was raised.
Lady O not only makes dreams come true for others, but some of her own wildest dreams have come to fruition. In 1997, Oprah took the show on the road to join Tina Turner on her Wildest Dream Tour, giving her the opportunity to sing and dance on stage with the musical icon.
Doing what she does best, the always generous queen of daytime famously gifted her entire audience with cars in 2004. Her production team handpicked each member of the studio audience on the basis of them needing a car. Much to their surprise, they drove home from the show after being given the keys to a Pontiac G6.

Andrew L. Blank graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with honors and attended the Albert Einstein College of medicine. He did his residency at Montefiore Medical Center and Albert Einstein College Hospital.
Dr. Blank is a Fellow of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and Fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He is a member of the Medical Society of the State of New York and the Brooklyn College of Surgeons, and Long Island Society of otolaryngology.
In 1992 he started what became Pediatric Ear, Nose and Throat Associates and Ear, Nose and Throat Specialties. Dr. Blank has merged his existing practice and joined ENTA in 2008. He continues his affiliation with long Island Jewish medical Center and the Schneider Children's Hospital where he has been on staff for eighteen years.
When Dr. Blank is not in the office he spends his time with his family, coaches a travel basketball team in his town and enjoys photography, tennis and skiing.
Published On: 10/22/2010
My 2 1/2 year old son had a chronic congested nose since about 6 months old along with mouth breathing and excessive drooling! I took him to many doctors/specialist but was never giving a satisfactory diagnosis on his condition. I was recommend to Dr. Blank by his pediatrician and on the first visit after examination he determined my son's adenoids and tonsils were too large. We attempted a course of action before going the surgical route. My son had surgery on 6/05/13 and I must say from start to finish I was very pleased with Dr Blank professionalism and how friendly he was towards my son and how comfortable he made both of us feel throughout the whole process. My son is doing 100% better and I'm so grateful to Dr. Blank.
06/28/2014 Patient from yelp.com
We originally brought my daughter to see Dr. Blank for a second opinion. She had been suffering from chronic recurrent tonsilitis. He did a thorough, complete history and exam. He patiently answered all of my wife's questions and discussed the different treatment options. My daughter had a flare of her tonsilitis while away at college. Dr. Blank went above and beyond our expectations and worked closely with the doctors up at school to make sure that she was treated appropriately. He is extremely knowledgeable and nice. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for anyone needing an ENT doctor.

Jesus, both of you stop saying haters. Everyone who uses that word ends up sounding like the same idiot. Do you guys hold meetings or do you all just share the same annoying personality?
She looks 100% better than she used to. Her hair isn't a ratted mess, her make up is toned down, she's not drawing on a unibrow anymore… and her botox seems to have worn off. She looks human again!
She looks more her age now. 28-30.
new face or not – she's stil a whore
…I can't figure out a difference…
It took me a while to figure out why she looks so different. I don't think it was plastic surgery, it's that she isn't tan anymore. No more fake oompah loompah orange. That plus significantly less makeup have her looking human.
Her eyes look different too tho…
Why do facelifts always make the recipients eyes not close evenly?
