In Case You Live Under A Rock
In case you missed it, here is the rundown of ABC's hack job of an interview with Gov.

Problem is... he is having major reflux and tummy pain with whole milk, as well as cheese. I'm unsure if he is having a problem with digesting the fat in whole milk or is having a true lactose intolerance. He's always had issues with reflux and eczema, yet been fine with my breastmilk (as I can watch my diet), but this is a whole other level of discomfort. He's never woken up multiple times a night in pain from his reflux or from drinking my milk. He's been waking every 1-2 hrs a night just screaming!
I would LOVE any advice from those who've been through this as to how I can decipher the cause and what you maybe did to figure it out. I'm thinking of either getting soy milk tonight or lactaid.

Burglaries may soon be a thing of the past for residents of Valdosta.
The Valdosta Police Department recently created a new unit whose main responsibility will be to diminish and solve burglaries.
Chief Brian Childress says although Valdosta's crime rates are better than the national average, he wants to ensure the number of burglaries reduces year after year.
"What we're hoping to do here is, we're hoping to do a series of things. We're hoping to create a burglary unit that's more specialized, that understands burglaries more. We're hoping to solve more burglaries, and we're also hoping to reduce burglaries," said Childress.
Childress says he hopes to reduce the number of burglaries in Valdosta by utilizing the new burglary unit, officers in the field, and also new technology that can actually predict where burglaries may occur.

Diclofenac ban to slow down vulture decline: StudyMay 12th, 2011 - 5:49 pm ICT by IANS
New Delhi, May 12 (IANS) The ban on veterinary drug diclofenac, which was administered to cattle in India, is expected to slow down the decline in the number of vultures who feed on animal carcasses, a study said here Thursday.
"The study shows that the proportion of cattle carcasses in India contaminated with diclofenac has declined by over 40 percent between the year 2006 and 2008," said the study published in US-based journal PloS ONE, conducted by Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) and UK-based Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB).
As scavengers, vultures provide important ecological service as they help in rapidly reducing animal carcasses and plants to simpler constituents, maintaining the food chain and ecosystem.
The use of the painkiller diclofenac was banned in India, Nepal and Pakistan in 2006, when it was noticed that vultures died after they fed on the carcasses of cattle that had been treated with diclofenac shortly before their death.
"The rate of annual population decline of vultures in South Asia is expected to slow down by about two-thirds. The decline rate is expected to be about 18 percent per annum for the most vulnerable vulture species," added the report.
BNHS director Asad Rahmani said: "Complete removal of diclofenac from vulture food is the single most important action needed to save vultures. Meloxicam is a safe alternative and is slowly becoming popular now that its cost is falling and approaching that of diclofenac."

Windows Boot failure[ Edited ]
04-25-2012 09:39 AM - edited 04-25-2012 09:43 AM
1) HP Pavilion g6-1b67 cl Notebook PC
2) Windows 7
3) "An error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data"
4) Stored all information on a USB Flashdrive before wiping computer.
5) Laptop experienced repeated crashes: Went to blue screen and restarted or the computer would simply stop responding and then restart itself. In the most recent instance of this, I was taken to an HP restart screen or something along those lines. I was given about 6 options for what to do. 3 were under immediate help. The first said something along the lines of "load from a previous date" and that had worked when this happened opnce before so I gave that a try again, but it said there were no previous dates to load from. So I backed up my files on a flashdrive and chose the third option which was to restore the computer to factory settings, thinking this would load everything how it was when I first got it. I was dismayed when I turned the PC back on after the process completed and saw the windows boot manager come up. It looks like this:
"Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc and restart your computer.
2. Choose your language settings and then click next.
3. click "repair your computer"
If you do not have this disc, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.
File: \Boot\BCD
info: an error occurred while attempting to read the boot configuration data."
then it says i can press enter to continue or esc to exit, both of which take me back to this screen after the hp logo flashes and the option comes up for the startup menu.
Please help me out, i cant afford to lose another laptop, im a college student so this is vital to me right now.
Thank you,
Re: Windows Boot failure[ Edited ]
04-25-2012 09:42 AM - edited 04-25-2012 09:46 AM
Oh, and I thought it was weird that the computer doesn't seem to respond at all to the flashdrive being in, when it is in the port. I had assumed that all the information stored on there would help with the reboot.
Re: Windows Boot failure
please run sytem daignostics in start up menu to check if there are any Hardware problem.
it seems that you need to run system recovery to bring it back to its default settings
Re: Windows Boot failure
I have performed all the tests on the startup screen and they all passed, but I still can't determine what the problem is. Is it simply something I'm not doing?

One-ShotIt had been a month since the shootout at the Khans'. Everything was pretty much back to normal. Yes at first Asad was very worried and angry over the shootout at Khan's but no one was at fault. Mariam was sent to her brother in Dubai, and as they, say all's well that ends well. Zoya and Asad's relationship was still the same, they weren't near friendship or love.

Hi Guys,
I am very new to WordPress. I would like to re-position my header image to a right alignment and was wondering if anyone could advise me on the basic steps of how to achieve this. I have a set up and activated a blaskan child theme as seems to be the general rule for this type of tinkering so if anyone can help that would be great.
This is my first post.

Dan Daniel and the Persistence of Conservatism in Virginia
Ferrell, Henry C., The Virginia Magazine of History and Biography
Dan Daniel and the Persistence of Conservatism in Virginia. By JACK IRBY HAYES, JR. Macon, Ga.: Mercer University Press, 1997. xi, 258 pp. $35.00.
JACK I. HAYES, JR., professor of history and political science at Averett College, has composed the first detailed biography of Wilbur Clarence "Dan" Daniel, a ten-term Virginia member of Congress during the transforming years of 1969-88.
Born in Pittsylvania County in 1914, son of a gregarious father and a deeply religious mother, Daniel spent his youth in Southside Virginia's bright tobacco country, where relatives and neighbors sheltered him when his sharecropper father's slight resources failed. Methodist and Southern Baptist congregations taught him social and public-speaking skills. He "identified with the prosperous, the propertied, and the politically prominent" (p. 9). In 1929, quitting his sporadic schooling, he worked in a Danville general store until forced home by the Great Depression. He joined the Civilian Conservation Corps and, afterward, used his new organizational skills as a job boss and clerk while playing semiprofessional baseball. After a failed marriage, he suffered from tuberculosis that required lengthy hospitalization and met his second wife, Ruby Gordon McGregor, a practical nurse from his home county.
In 1939 Dan River Mills employed tall, athletic Daniel in its textile work force. During World War II, with labor scarce, he rose from the ranks to assistant to the board chairman. In 1944 he joined the navy briefly before failing a physical exam. Four years later he obtained a high school equivalency and perfected his speaking talents. His management mentors enlisted Daniel in the American Legion, and he advanced from post to state and, by 1956, to national commander, making him "one of the most influential men in the country" (p. 36). He promoted Americanism, existence of a monolithic, international Communist conspiracy, the legion's Back to God campaign, universal military training, and veterans' benefits.
Traveling widely and reading voraciously, Daniel championed legion and corporate textile agendas. Elected in 1959 to the General Assembly, he evolved into a lieutenant in the political organization of Senator Harry F. …

I applaud such landscapes, as seemingly impossible as they are to exist quite like this, is to as almost flawless as they appear to be as well. I think the colors are excellent as well, as thy have this like gradient patter to the image as the focus all leans towards the light source towards the crossing peaks and cooler colors all around it periphery. The birds like heading towards the light is an added bonus to this image too, well done.
such awesome work, inspiring like the rest of you gallery + watch
love the colors!
Very nice flow to the landscape!
Hello i checked your blog, just one question how did you get the initial image?
well, at first it was a speed painting play around with the brushes i just think that in my head i will paint a fantasy landscape and it came out, there is no goal or what ever, my challenge in this image is to paint a landscape that no references needed this is just a exercises of what's in my head.

Travis is a great dude and has the nicest selection of records (all genres) I've seen at a shop in quite a while. I walked out with 21 records and should've bought more.

Two years ago, after North Dakota was left out of the NCAA tournament instead of Dartmouth and Minnesota-Duluth was placed at Wisconsin first round, a longtime women's college hockey expert wrote an e-mail to college hockey coaches explaining why the Pairwise Rankings — more specifically the RPI component — doesn't work for the sport.
The e-mail was written by Harvard alum David DeRemer, who is probably the best expert on the Pairwise Rankings and the NCAA selection process I have ever come across — men's or women's side (DeRemer correctly predicted UND would get in this year over Wisconsin, despite the readings on the USCHO Pairwise).
Below is an excerpt of his e-mail to NCAA coaches in 2011:
Despite its widespread adoption by NCAA committees, the ratings percentage index (RPI) is a deeply flawed system with a bias towards interconference parity. To see why the RPI is flawed, consider a world with two conference where every team in conference A is better than every team in conference B, and each team only plays one nonconference game. As the number of conference games grows large, the RPIs of teams in each conference would converge to each team's conference record, even though every team in conference A is better. While I don't claim every team in the WCHA is better than every team in Hockey East, this is a rough approximation of why BC and BU ended up ahead of Minnesota, despite most human voters and statistically sound rankings placing Minnesota higher.
Statistics professors with interests in college hockey have developed multiple ranking systems which do not suffer from this bias towards parity in the RPI. One is the KRACH, hosted by USCHO. Another is the Rutter rankings. Both rankings use methods well accepted by the statisticians. Both rankings come to the conclusion that Minnesota is No. 3, UMD is much better than No. 7, and UND should have been No. 7. I'll briefly describe each rating. For any pair of teams i and j with ratings A_i and A_j, the KRACH assumes the probability of team i winning is (A_i / (A_i + A_j)). The KRACH then simply picks the ratings so that the probabilities best match the actual results. Rutter does much the same, except it uses a slightly different formula for the probability involving the normal distribution and uses a slightly different estimation method.
When the RPI is flawed, it spills over into other criteria as well. For example, both KRACH and Rutter support the conclusion that Bemidji is one of the top 12 teams. Since record vs. top 12 teams is a selection criteria, WCHA teams were denied appropriate credit for their results against Bemidji.
Women's hockey has better reasons than any other NCAA sport to institute a better system than the RPI and should take the institutional lead in doing so. Few sports other than women's hockey have had a conference as successful as the WCHA that plays such a small share of their schedules against the other large conferences, yet the sport still attempts to conduct a truly national tournament. The RPI parity bias problem I described is stronger in women's hockey than in most other sports.
It is important that WCHA members and interested parties and media respond to this injustice not by personally attacking the integrity of committee members or by suggesting minor tweaks like putting greater priority on "protecting the top seed" or "avoiding intraconference matchups." The fundamental problem with the current bracket is that the NCAA selection criteria unfairly underrate all WCHA teams. If the committee had used a better criterion than the RPI, the pairing of two of the nation's best teams, who have combined for the last 5 NCAA titles and met in 3 consecutive Frozen Fours, would have been avoided.
Now, if women's college hockey were using the Rutter Rankings, which are mentioned in the e-mail, not only would UND be in the tournament, it would be a top-four seed hosting a regional this weekend. Also, Wisconsin would be in the tournament under the other rankings (I think we all know the Badgers were a top-8 team this year, too).

Hey all,
I'm a soon-to-be PhD student in summer purgatory looking to buy a new bike. I have a 12 year old huffy that I am sure is probably not really worth taking with me and am looking for a new bike. I am moving to Columbia, MO, where everyone seems to be a cyclist (ironic because I am an IU grad and everyone here just got over Little 500). I need help finding a good (and cheap) bike for exercise and fun, too.

The Washington County Commanderettes softball team recently held their annual awards banquet. Awards were handed out for the 2009 season.
Pooh Railey was named the team's MVP. She led the squad in batting average (.441), slugging (.673), RBI (27) and tied with Olivia Thompson for doubles (9).
Amber Taylor was chosen by her teammates to receive the Commanderette Award. Taylor also received the senior academic award.
The baseball coaching staff at Washington County High School will conduct a summer baseball camp June 22-24 at Tom Bystrek Field at Idle Hour Park.
Campers will receive instructions through lectures, drills and simulated game situations.
For more information or to register, call WCHS head baseball coach Derek Schuler at (502) 639-2617.
The Washington County 4-H Sharpshooters started off their competitive season successfully when they hosted along with the Marion Co. 4-H Sure Shots in an invitational trap and archery shoot on Saturday, June 6. Approximately 120 youth from 14 counties competed in the event held at the Hahn Trap Range in Chaplin.
Sun Staff Writer
Many Washington County residents woke up last Thursday morning to discover a few limbs had fallen during the previous night when a powerful storm rolled through the area. But there probably weren't many who suffered as much damage as Jim and Leann Mattingly did.
It may hard to believe, but 4-H is celebrating a century of service to Kentucky. As a way to honor this milestone, a barn quilt commemorating the 100th anniversary was placed on the barn of Lawrence "Pete" Spalding last Wednesday morning.
Passersby on KY-150 just northwest of Springfield now have a visual tribute to the 100 years that the 4-H has served Kentucky.
See the complete story in this week's Springfield Sun!
The River of Life Church will be holding Upward Soccer registrations and evaluations for girls and boys pre-school through 8th grade on Monday, June 22 and Thursday, June 25 from 6-8 p.m. at the River of Life Church on Hwy. 555.
All games will be played at the church soccer field behind the church. Every child wishing to play must attend one registration. If you have any questions, call Donna Spalding at the church office at 336-7604 or e-mail email@example.com.
Recent WCHS graduate Joe Joe Simms is still making Washington County proud, even after he has received his diploma. This past Friday, Simms was one of two quarterbacks chosen to play for the West team in the Kentucky East Vs. West All-Star Football Classic in Bowling Green.
If you have been out and about in your garden you have probably noticed that there are several diseases of plants beginning to rear their ugly heads after our warm, damp weather. I have noticed this weekend that a little blight has started to show up on the bottom leaves of some of my tomato plants. There are several diseases that can attack tomatoes, usually early blight is the leading problem this time of year, along with septoria leaf blight and some of the wilts such as Verticilium and Fusarium. If your tomato plants start to yellow and wilt out of the blue and just up
The issue has been voted on, and a motion to bring a school resource officer (SRO) to Washington County High School was defeated at the May school board meeting. Still, the topic arose again at Thursday's board meeting, and this time, about 50 educators and parents were on hand for the discussion.
When the night began, no doubt all of the 17 contestants for the title of 2010 Washington County Junior Miss were nervous. When the night had ended, one stood out from the crowd and claimed the title.
Josette Taylor, daughter of Billy and Kathy Taylor of Springfield, was crowned 2010 Washington County Junior Miss, but she began the competition hoping to have fun during the competition. She said afterwards that if she won one award, that would be fine by her.

From the "Not really surprising" file… Returning soldiers and military veterans don't really hold much hope or trust in the military to help them with their mental health needs — especially suicidal thoughts — according to a new report.
And why would they? The military is their employer. Would you feel comfortable talking to your bosses about all of your mental health issues? And not just mild stuff either, this is the serious depression, "I want to kill myself" stuff.
Most of us would be extremely uncomfortable with such a conversation. We would be even more uncomfortable with such a conversation knowing it is being recorded in our work record, and will follow us around for the rest of our professional career.
This is exactly what happens to soldiers and officers in the U.S. military.
Read on to see the preliminary results of the report…


text: King Kenny - Unregistered July 28, 2012 11:45 PM Stoner didn't lose 3 tenths behind no CRT, get real. Just go to motogp.com and check the analysis pdf's. Stoner's pole lap last sector was a bit over a tenth slower than his next lap, and a bit faster than his previous lap. And the fact that that sector was a tenth and a bit slower than his next lap doesn't mean he lost all that time behind the CRT. Just look at the other 3 sectors and see the variations from one lap to the next.In order to find enough space to do a clean lap, Lorenzo could only manage a fast lap in his last stint. Nobody stopped Stoner from waiting to leave enough room with the slow bikes. The problems is that he just expects them to move aside when he's coming, and those guys are also trying to clasify as high as possible.Stoner has nobody to blame but himself, if he really needs to blame somebody. 2nd position is pretty good. He should be worried at Lorenzo's and Pedrosa's pace all weekend long, though. 6 agree 7 disagree

Hi everyone, i an new to this forum and new to infertility treatment. I had a SIS done last month and it showed normal uterus and no polyps or abnormalities. and i just had my HSG done today. it was so painful! all the nurse told me was, it looks like your tubes are blocked and you need to speak with your specialist. So im so mind screwed right now, im sad angry confused. we have been TTC for 2 years now and this just ruined me. ive heard so many stories or people having the HSG open their tubes or doing massage therapy.. Im not sure what my RE wants to do from this point, but is there any hope out there except ivf ? Is there anything i can ask for him to consider? i feel so hopeless and im trying to stay positive as there is still a few last resort options... but has anyone had any success other than ivf ?
HSG shows blocked tubes. Is there still hope?
I read that your tubes are blocked at the uterus entrance??? According to webmd it is the easiest blockage to correct and conceive naturally! Ask your re about it. Sometimes even lap surgery can correct it. But as for getting pregnant wiyh blocked tubes iui is not recommended. You will have better success with ivf.
whatever you do good luck ur in my prayers.
where are your tubes blocked? one of mine at the uterus and the other close to the end of the tube. you should definitely talk to your RE about lap surgery! I am in another group where lots of the women had success with the lap surgery. I cant afford IVF so I am working with a doctor to hopefully have the lap surgery. My insurance will cover it since it is an out patient surgery.
Good luck!!
hello ladies! thank you all for responding. so i had my discussion with my specialist and he does not reccommend the lap surgery. Here are his reasons. 1) I am so young that if my tubes are successfully opened my body will try to heal the wound and it will only give me a 2-3 month opportunity then it will evenyually close. 2) my tubes have a chance of being fully damaged during the surgery 3) IVF is a more successful procedure being that i dont have anything wrong with me and my first cycle is medically covered through my insurance. So if i want to have more kids after the first attempt my eggs will have already been removed and they will just fertilize them and iui them into my uterus. Every cycle after that will be anywhere between $3,000 to $5,000. Due to the prescriptions not being covered and iui not being covered. So it is and can be expensive but i guess this is my only route and my husband and i are okay with our situation. we look forward to our first IVF in about a year once i graduate from nursing school.
My doctors have all said the same.. pointless to unblock as they would probably reblock themselves. Its so annoying. Ive had 3 different REs tell me that. :-(
Becky(28)amh-0.46 & blocked tubes DH(29)fine TTC 3 1/2yrs
Tried 4-IVFs, 2-DE IVFs. Never have had a BFP :-(
DE IVF #3 possibly in August
Wow I wasnt told that? Unfortunately the insurance wont cover it unless it is coded right and we have to come up with about half the cost
I personally at this point would still like to have the lap surgery done. Not so much do i care to unblock my tubes but to maybe find some hidden issues as to why none of my ivfs have worked. My doctor is still saying no reason to... ughhh.
Becky(28)amh-0.46 & blocked tubes DH(29)fine TTC 3 1/2yrs

yeah me too....i have no clue why my tubes became blocked?? your signature says says you will try again May...Good Luck!!

The Best OTC Meds
1 / 21
THERE'S SAFETY IN THE PRESCRIPTION PAD—doctor's orders remove all doubt about which pill to pop. But without the chicken scratch on that scrip to guide you, do you know which meds are best? More than 100,000 are available over the counter and contain over 1,000 active ingredients—which you probably ignore. In fact, a new Northwestern University study reveals that 59 percent of people don't always check the contents of their OTC drugs. "Most people shop by symptom, not ingredient," says study author Michael Wolf, Ph.D., M.P.H.
It's time to stop buying blind. We interviewed the experts, decoded the labels, and removed the child-safety caps, all to create this guide to the best over-the-counter remedies for men.

Holidays on Ice: Stories
by David Sedaris
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Okay, this is actually Sedaris's funniest and best.
I loved this book by David as I love all his work. Beware that this book is published under another name as well, SantaLand Diaries. I made the mistake of purchasing both years apart thinking they were different books. Sadly they were the same. I would recommend.
I've been hearing that Sedaris is good for some time now, and I wasn't disappointed. Aside from the horrendous essay that was littered with exclamation points, I really enjoyed each piece. Sedaris' style and tone is fresh and natural.
Barely tolerable, supposedly humorous, essays regarding the holiday season. If my book club hadn't selected it, I wouldn't have finished it.
A great book to re-read at the holidays! And the story "Six to Eight Black Men" cracked me up so bad, I had to put it down for fear of choking! Ahh Sedaris...
I love David Sedaris as he is one of my favorite authors but this is not one of his best books. You should still read
"Holidays on Ice" because it is funny and will make you smile. Holidays are crazy for everyone, no matter what holidays you celebrate and Sedaris reminds us to laugh at them, especially ourselves.
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English (1)
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0316779237, Paperback)Holidays on Ice is a collection of three previously published stories matched with three newer ones, all, of course, on a Christmas theme. David Sedaris's darkly playful humor is another common thread through the book, worming its way through "Seasons Greetings to Our Friends and Family!!!" a chipper suburban Christmas letter that spirals dizzily out of control, and "Front Row Center with Thaddeus Bristol," a vicious theatrical review of children's Christmas pageants. As always, Sedaris's best work is his sharply observed nonfiction, notably in "Dinah, the Christmas Whore," the tale of a memorable Christmas during which the young Sedaris learns to see his family in a new light. Worth the price of the book alone is the hilarious "SantaLand Diaries," Sedaris's chronicle of his time working as an elf at Macy's, covering everything from the preliminary group lectures ("You are not a dancer. If you were a real dancer you wouldn't be here. You're an elf and you're going to wear panties like an elf.") to the perils of inter-elf flirtation. Along the way, he paints a funny and sad portrait of the way the countless parents who pass through SantaLand are too busy creating an Experience to really pay attention to their children. In a sly way, it carries a holiday message all its own. Read it aloud to the adults after the kids have gone to bed. --Ali Davis
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:11:38 -0400)
The author has always had a special affinity for Christmas. His celebrated National Public Radio debut, The Santa Land Diaries, which first appeared in print in Barrel Fever was hailed the Seattle Times. The New York Times also wrote of this book. Now The Santa Land Diaries & five other hilarious Christmas stories are available in a wonderfully subversive holiday gift package. For anyone who has had enough of the forced good cheer, family madness, & commercial overkill of Christmas, Holidays on Ice will be the perfect antidote.… (more)

Iraq War eerily evokes the Mexican War
That "there's nothing new under the sun" has been expressed in dozens of different ways. Yet specific instances often come as a surprise.
Happening on a book about the Mexican War of 1846-48 ("Gone for Soldiers," by Jeff Shaara, author of the more recent bestseller "Gods and Generals"), the present writer was struck by the many eerie parallels between that war and the recent one in Iraq.
In both conflicts, greatly outnumbered American forces invaded a very foreign land and easily prevailed through superior technology and organization. Both enemies were dictatorships that began the fighting with bombast and hyperbole: "The father and mother of all battles" was going to obliterate the infidel invaders in 1846, just as in 2003. Mexico had its "Comical Ali's" boasting of victories even as the roof was falling about their ears.
The American forces in Mexico lacked the modern luxury (or handicap) enjoyed (or suffered) by those in Iraq, of instant communications.
Lacking sufficient troops to keep the line of communication open to the sea, the U.S. commander, Gen. Winfield Scott, anticipated Sherman in Georgia by simply severing it, forgetting communications altogether, marching into unknown country surrounded by forces many times the size of his own. This had the advantage of at least preventing his superiors back home from micromanaging his campaign!
Just as in Iraq, having blown away the organized opposition any time he encountered any, Scott found himself harassed at every turn by guerrillas. Convinced that local officials knew full well about the guerrillas' activities, he told them they could either cooperate with the Americans (who'd pay hard cash for purchased supplies) or be personally fined for guerrilla incursions. It's a good bet similar economic incentives have been quietly applied in Iraq.
The ticklish question of religion haunted American operations in Mexico much as in Iraq. The U.S. was then a heavily Protestant country, with an army to match.
The better-educated officers went out of their way to conciliate the Catholic Mexicans. But the rank-and-file often were militantly anti-Catholic, and had to be sternly restrained from showing it. Catholicism, above all as practised by the Mexicans, struck them as idolatrous superstition.
The situation was exacerbated by another factor that's had its echos in the anti-terror conflict.
Just as there were a few native-born Americans, and some naturalized American Moslems, who betrayed their country, or at the least their enlistment vows, in Mexico a whole "brigade" of Irish (mostly recent immigrants but including some native-born) scandalously deserted their comrades in mid-war and went over to the Mexicans. Their motivation was presumed to be basically religious. They decided they were Catholics first, Americans second.
Clearly, this couldn't have done much for the Protestant soldiers' opinions of the Catholics.
Some 80 of these "San Patricios" (St. Patricks) were captured. The leaders were shot, 50 others hanged. Those spared execution had "D" (for deserter) carved on their cheeks.
Religion apart, the minds of ordinary soldiers seem to have changed little since the 1840s. As in Iraq, the Mexican War was fought with volunteers. Some signed up looking for adventure, some for lack of a better job at home, some to get away from personal or family problems. Most matter-of-factly believed in their country, and in the righteousness of the war.
At the same time, they grumbled like all soldiers, and spent more time asking "When can we go home?" than in debating the merits of their being there.
Like Iraq, to the Mexicans, and to foreign critics, it may have looked like crass aggression against a foreign land. And then as now, America had its anti-war claque, centered mostly in the Northeast. But the average American firmly believed in "manifest destiny," that it was only right for the stronger, better-organized English-speaking race or culture to overspread the continent, to claim and exploit the land, and bring democratic values to its peoples.
And if one believes in "progress" it's a hard argument to counter. For instance there were three deep-water harbors in Mexican territory. America got two of them as spoils of war: two of the biggest ports in the world, San Diego and San Francisco.
The third, Topolobampo, is still the sleepy backwater it was in 1846. Flying over today's Border, one easily tells pristine, "unspoiled" Mexico from the almost miraculous maze of development that is the U.S.
However one explains American superiority, evinced in the Mexican War much as in Iraq and Afghanistan, it can hardly be denied. The U.S. army in Mexico had better cannon. But more importantly it had better cannoneers.
The Americans were better trained, better organized, better motivated. Yes, Mexico had its heroes and patriots. But they were led by strutting peacocks who paraded their massive armies, breathing fire and brimstone, and then wailed that all was lost, and led the panic flight to the rear. And the Mexican soldier had the habit of staying under cover and discharging his musket at the sky, not even looking, let alone aiming.
Santa Anna, the Mexican dictator, was a more congenial figure than Saddam Hussein, but he was his equal for brutality and perfidy. Even then, the U.S. was in the "nation-building" business.
Santa Anna had been in disgraced exile since personally losing Texas in 1836. The Americans offered him a deal: If he'd promise to settle Mexico's differences with the U.S., we'd see he got back into power in Mexico. He promised, went back, and instantly broke his promise, setting about raising an army and occupying the disputed border regions.
Traditionally, the losers of wars footed the bill. But already by the 1840s it was getting to be the other way around. The soldiers who'd so crushingly whipped Mexico expected the U.S. to annex all or much of the country, certainly Baja California and the area later acquired for cash in the Gadsden Purchase. To their disgust the civilian "clerk" sent out to negotiate drew up a treaty by which we actually paid for what we'd just won in war!
We even agreed to bail Mexico out of debt. It didn't cost us as much as Iraq; but the trend had been set.
The U.S. had to intervene in Mexico if it wanted a secure, stable border. Just as we must intervene in the Middle East if we want something besides chaos there.

How to check your electrical system is safe
There are some tell-tale signs that your system is out of date and unsafe to work on (old-style rubber-sheathed cable, for example). But even if you live in a modern house with an electrical system that's been professionally checked and approved in the past ten years, things can still go wrong. So make sure it's safe before you begin work.
If you're in any doubt, get it checked by a qualified electrician.

Photo by Renee McMahon
Max Genereaux is the owner of Ballard's fine nightclub, the Sunset Tavern. But unlike most rock-club owners, Max harbors a deep love for all types of teenage girl pop music. Last Friday, he attended Jessica Simpson's performance at the brand new Snoqualimie Casino. Here is another classic piece of Genereaux concert reportage.
Girls! Girls! Girls! And I'm not talking about the Motley Crue type. I'm talking about the Jessica Simpson type. They were out about 2,000 strong last Friday at the brand new Snoqualmie Casino. In their 20s, 30s and 40s, they came in big blonde hair and sparkly shirts with girlfriends in tow. I haven't seen that much big blonde hair since I was a kid in Lubbock, Texas, going to high school football games. Just as she did in her hit reality show, Newlyweds, Jessica was letting it all hang out. Her first country music album, Do You Know, is a very personal account of her past and current relationships, both of which she spoke of at length as she introduced each song. It was like being out with the girls on a weekend night with boyfriends and ex-boyfriends the main topics of conversation. And I have to hand it to her: On Do You Know, Jessica writes from the heart and her fans, at least at this show, get it. This is not the contrived NASCAR-infused, Big & Rich, Taylor Swift new country that dominates the charts these days. While I don't think Jessica is on the level of Carrie Underwood or anywhere near the queen of new country (Shania), her music is simple, honest and heartfelt. I admire that.
The show started with country music legend and Jessica's Duke's of Hazzard costar Willie Nelson.
Via recorded message, he introducing Jessica as a good friend, a Texas girl and a country star on the rise. Could Jessica deliver? Opening with a cover of the mega hit "These Boots Are Made for Walking", Jessica lit the crowd up. Immediately, I notice three things: 1) The band is great, 2) Jessica, unlike her little sister, can actually sing (unfortunately, like many of divas of her generation, she likes to belt it out whenever possible. Just because you can carry a note out doesn't mean you should. But that was just me. The crowd loved it.) And 3) Her oversized sparkly shirt was just like one a fat lady would wear to cover her stomach and ass. It hung straight off her boobs and below her waist eliminating any sign of her waistline or ass. Where was the stylist for this choice? Little did I know she had a plan for this long shirt. During "These Boots" she gyrated slowly, pulled her shirt just up over her ass, shook it, swayed it in 360, looked over her shoulder and screamed "Yeaaah!" The show was on and the Girls! Girls! Girls! were loving it.
Jessica asked the crowd if they liked her new boots, which she had just bought at Nordstrom. Or, in her words, "I just got done droppin' a big penny on these boots. I love you all. I really mean that." And I believe her. She does love us.
The next 3 songs were from the new album. Jessica speaks to the crowd just like we are one of her girlfriends. Her introductions to the songs are like Cliff Notes, letting us in on the inspiration and meaning of her very personal lyrics. I suppose anyone willing to let America into their house with TV cameras doesn't have much to hide. With "Still Beautiful" Jessica reminds all of us that even when life is hard we need to remember that each day is a gift from God and still beautiful. "You're My Sunday", she let us know, is about current boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys' quarterback Tony Romo, and how he is the calming force in her life. I've never been spoon fed song-meanings like this at any show, on any level. And it doesn't stop there. Next, Jess spells out that "Sipping On History" is all about ex-husband Nich Lachey, before launching into the heartfelt ballad about how she thought they'd grow old together, and what would have or could have been, like having a big trampoline with lots of kids. Snapping back to reality and showing a sense of humor, Jessica covers Shania Twain's, "Whose Bed Have Your Boots (Been Under)." Snap! Take that Nick. While I can fault her for over-singing each chorus, I can't fault her for her honesty. Jessica sings from the heart and the girls with big hair hear every word and, thanks to Jessica's intros, they understand them as well.
And on and on it goes. The band continues to kick ass, Jessica continues to explain every song before singing it, and the crowd eats it up. And why wouldn't they? These are songs about something most girls can identify with: Boys, and how crazy they make you girls when they don't do what you want them to. Things like, coming over in the middle of the night looking for love and you can't say no; things like talking you back into bed or a relationship when you should know better. But "It still don't stop me", Jessica says. "I never knew I was bitter until I fell in love with the wrong person," she tells us before the last song, the hit "Come On Over". But she makes sure to let us know that this song is about someone else. Not Nick the boy band playboy, but Tony the pro quarterback. And the girls all melt. I guess in some crowds all the girls do still want to date the star quarterback. And there I am, right back in Lubbock, Texas at a high school football game. Congratulations, Jessica. You got the quarterback and your live show did something that every good live show should; took me and the rest of the audience on a journey to another place.

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PM&R) is also called physiatry. This medical specialty deals with the evaluation and treatment of patients with a disease, disorder, or injury that impairs normal function.
The doctor who specializes in physical medicine and rehabilitation is called a physiatrist.
Physiatrists complete 4 years of medical school, plus an additional 4 years of residency training. Many physiatrists complete fellowship training in a specialty area. Afterward, doctors are eligible to take the tests (oral and written) of the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (ABPM&R) to become a board-certified physiatrist.
Physiatrists provide many medical services, but they do not perform surgery. Physiatrists treat various musculoskeletal (muscles and bones), cardiovascular (heart and blood vessels), pulmonary (lungs and breathing), and neurological (nervous system) disorders, including conditions such as arthritis, back pain, work- and sports-related injuries, and brain or spinal cord injuries.
Physiatrists may practice in a variety of settings, including the following:
Inpatient rehabilitation centers
Outpatient rehabilitation centers
Private practice
Physiatry provides for multidisciplinary care aimed at the recovery of the whole person by addressing his or her physical, emotional, vocational, and social needs.
Bayhealth is Southern Delaware's healthcare leader with hospitals in Dover and in Milford. Bayhealth provides a wide range of medical services, including cardiovascular, cancer, orthopaedics and rehabilitation, pediatrics, respiratory care, sleep care, surgical weight loss and women's services.

Support growing for gay marriage in Minnesota, new polling suggests
Mark Dayton dreams of Vikings stadiums and Minnesota becoming the first state to vote down a constitutional amendment against gay rights. This year, both dreams may be fulfilled.
A new SurveyUSA poll suggests there is more support for gay marriage in Minnesota than there was four or six months ago.
However, rather than directly asking Minnesotans for their opinions about gay marriage or the constitutional amendment, pollsters opted for an Obama-related question that makes it more difficult to analyze the survey results, namely: "President Obama says that same-sex couples should be able to get married. Do you agree with the president? Or disagree?"
As the Minnesota Progressive Project notes:
Survey USA
Even though they would seem to be the same thing, these are in fact two different things; to agree or disagree with President Obama about his stance on same sex marriage and to vote yes or no (or not vote) on the actual amendment that will be on the ballot.
52 percent of respondents said they agree with the president, while 42 were opposed. Six percent were "not sure." The poll's margin of error is 4.4 percent.
Compare that with earlier results. In late January, Public Policy Polling found that the amendment is "headed for a close vote," with 48 percent of voters in favor of banning same-sex marriage and 44 percent opposed. A November Star Tribune poll found an almost identical 48-43 split. So it appears momentum is building in the pro-gay rights direction, even if SurveyUSA's question raises doubt about how the results should be interpreted.
If you need a refresher, the amendment before Minnesota voters this November will ask "whether only a union of one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in Minnesota." That's obviously a lot different than what SurveyUSA asked.
Perhaps we should recognize the power of the president's words and the governor's dreams. Combined, they've arguably been enough to swing some Minnesotans toward support of the gay rights cause.
