Democrats really got the wood taken to them on this one. They literally got nothing they wanted, endangered our national security and wasted a lot of time. The best part of the whole FISA/telecom debate is Sen. Obama's blatant flip-flop on the issue (not that I want to distract from hopechangery).
Here is what Obama said on 12/17/07 "Senator Obama unequivocally opposes giving retroactive immunity to telecommunications companies and has cosponsored Senator Dodd's efforts to remove that provision from the FISA bill. Granting such immunity undermines the constitutional protections Americans trust the Congress to protect. Senator Obama supports a filibuster of this bill, and strongly urges others to do the same. It's not clear whether he can return for the vote, but under the Senate rules, the side trying to end a filibuster must produce 60 votes to cut off debate. Whether he is present for the vote or not, Senator Obama will not be among those voting to end the filibuster."
And on 6/25/08, "My view on FISA has always been that the issue with phone companies per se is not one that overrides security interests of the American people. I do want accountability, and making sure that, as I've said before, that somebody is watching the watchers."
Political expediancy wins again, even for the candiate of change.Technorati Tags: Obama, FISA, wiretaping, telecom immunity

News roundup
A couple of shorter topics that wouldn't make for good single posts (at least by my wordy standards).
First, a quick update on my fourth-edition monk replacement class. I made a number of minor changes a couple of days ago, and it's looking good so far — at least at lower levels. I still haven't had a lot of opportunity to test it at high levels. I have my eye on a couple of things that seem as though they might be overpowered right now (World Breaker's Hand and the epic destiny "encounter-power-as-at-will-power" trait being the two biggest).
All told, balancing a class in 4e is a tricky process. If any of you are actually using this class (or a variant) in play, I'd appreciate any feedback; it'll help me get it to work.
I'm also looking for a name to give it so that I can keep referring to it after the official monk class comes out without causing confusion. (I should have plenty of time — that won't happen until the Player's Handbook 2, next spring, at earliest, and maybe not until the PHB3.) I'd ideally like it to be to the point and in English. So far "Martial Artist" or "<adjective> Monk" are seeming like the most likely contenders.
Second, I should have passed this on a couple of days back, but I read on Purple Pawn that Wizards of the Coast has withdrawn its permission for third-party use of the d20 logo. After the end of this year, publishers won't be allowed to sell products featuring the logo
Accordingly, several merchants are discounting those products. Goodman Games and Troll Lord Games are among them. If you're sticking with 3.5e or its derivatives, this could be a great time to pick up a bunch of new material, and if you're playing 4e or another system, you might think about picking something up for adaptation or inspiration.
And finally, something having to do with the site itself. I'm more or less finished tinkering with the design and layout, at least for the present, unless I discover something that's broken in a given web browser. I'm reasonably happy with my colors, my sidebars, and so on. I could still use a header graphic, but the one I've got serves adequately too.
One of the decisions I made during the reshuffling was to remove the ads I'd been intermittently running. I don't have any expectation of actually making money from the site, and whatever the ads might have done in the way of defraying operating expenses, it wasn't worth having to look at them.
Because I'm not entirely altruistic, I've got a donation button and a link to my Amazon wishlist instead, down at the bottom of the sidebar. I've also got an offer: Anything I get donations toward (or get donated outright), I will write at least three articles about.
The first of these articles will be a comprehensive review, probably of two to five thousand words in length, but longer if necessary. The other two will present elements adaptable into a game or consider alternative ways of using those elements already present. At least one of these articles will be a worldbuilding or advice "fluff" post; the other may be a mechanical "crunch" post. The total length of the articles will be in the 5000 words-plus range. If three articles won't do that, I'll write a fourth. If I find inspiration beyond three articles, I'll write a fourth.
Basically, this is a pitch for stuff to use in my game, yeah. But if nothing else, I'll commit to helping find ways for you to use it in yours, too. I don't exactly plan to make a living on this, but if anything does come my way, it'll be more material to fuel future posts.
Speaking of reviews, I've got one scheduled later this week, regarding one of the books I picked up at Gencon, Dreaming Cities. Tri-stat urban fantasy. Stay tuned.

Global Icon Award for Bon Jovi
In 1994 the MTV Europe Music Awards were established to honor and celebrate all international music videos that are popular across Europe. The winners of the awards are selected by the voting public, and each year the host city of the ceremony changes. Over the years countries such as Germany and the United Kingdom have had the honor of hosting the event, and for the 2010 MTV Europe Music Awards, Madrid in Spain has been selected. The award evening will be held on 7 November 2010, and the most anticipated award, the Global Icon Award, will be handed to Bon Jovi this year.
The band Bon Jovi was formed in the year 1983 and consists of Richie Sambora, Jon Bon Jovi, Tico Torres, Hugh McDonald and David Bryan. They made a big splash onto the music scene in 1986 with the release of their Slippery When Wet album, which went on to sell twelve million copies worldwide. Over the years other albums followed, such as These Days, New Jersey and Lost Highway. The band has also performed in countries circling the globe. During their career in the music industry they have given more than 2700 live performances, sold approximately a 125 million albums and entertained fans in more than 50 countries. Bon Jovi has also been honored by being inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, as well as the UK Music Hall of Fame. With so many achievements behind them, and a music career that is still ongoing, it is no surprise that Bon Jovi are receiving the Global Icon Award.
Executive Vice President of Music and Talent, Programming and Events, of MTV Networks International, Bruce Gillmer, commented on the award by saying: "There's no question that Bon Jovi has achieved iconic status across the globe and is widely recognized as one of the most beloved and influential rock bands of all time." Other artists who will be hoping to receive awards on the night include Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, while artists such as Ke$ha, Shakira and Kings of Leon will be performing.

Cory Spinks and Zab Judah - two fighters who can't seem to find that ticket to stardom - have found that the road to nowhere goes through each other.
Though Spinks is the undisputed welterweight champ, he is so desperate for a name opponent that he is taking on Judah, whom he handily defeated in April. His previous fight was a boring decision over the ancient Miguel Angel Gonzalez in September, and the underwhelming year effectively knocked the "Next Generation" out of all pound-for-pound talk.
It also eliminated him as an attractive opponent for the sport's big names - specifically Floyd Mayweather and Kostya Tszyu. So here he is, fighting Judah again in a rematch that no one wants to see. And praying that his performance is good enough that some promoter deems him worthy of a shot at the big boys.
Don't bet on it happening.
Cory Spinks isn't a very exciting fighter. He is a safety-first southpaw whose fine boxing skills dictate that toe-to-toe exchanges will always be reduced to a minimum. His fight with Judah last year was decent, though the only drama was produced when a "Super" counter left put him on the deck in the final round.
He failed to produce an emphatic victory despite the fact that he was bigger, taller and stronger than his opponent. And the knockdown seemed to indicate a vulnerability - especially in the 147-pound king's chin.
Then came the Gonzalez fight.
There have been some bad fights over the years. Evander Holyfield-Vaughn Bean in 1998 and Fred Norwood-Juan Manuel Marquez in '99 come to mind. But Spinks-Gonzalez was a stinker from the moment "The Next Generation" agreed to fight the faded former 135-pound champion. Not only was Gonzalez years past his prime, but he was significantly smaller than Spinks.
And, still, Spinks struggled - winning a lackluster decision for the second time in five months. He should be thankful that he dropped just a few notches in the pound-for-pound rankings.
His stock as a marketable fighter, however, dropped significantly more.
Judah, meanwhile, is perhaps this generation's Mark Breland or Donald Curry.
Back in 1999, Judah was thought to be a Pernell Whitaker with a punch. And while those comparisons were unfair - Whitaker is one of the greatest fighters in history - Judah was nevertheless expected to be enjoying a brilliant career by now.
But all of his promise may have been destroyed with one punch in 2001.
That's when Tszyu sent an overconfident Judah sprawling onto his back, courtesy of a big right hand. Judah got up, but his overanxiousness cost him. He rose immediately, and when his legs did an involuntary Charleston, referee Jay Nady stopped the fight in round two.
Judah responded by throwing a tantrum - choking Nady and tossing a stool across the ring. It didn't do anything to change the result. It did, however, make him look like a baby.
Since then, Judah has been hot-and-cold, but that maturity factor is still a concern. He looked decent enough against the bigger Spinks. But his struggle against Rafael Pineda - who was so used up that he made Gonzalez look like a prospect - was horrid.
Judah, obviously unprepared, almost lost an opportunity with his carelessness.
So now Spinks - the guy who can't look good against smaller, older fighters - will fight Judah - the classic underachiever.
The boxing world can hardly wait.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

Six players for the New Orleans Saints did not practice Wednesday, and the team's top running backs Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas remained among them, according to the injury report released by Coach Sean Payton.
In addition to Thomas and Bush, kicker Garrett Hartley (ankle), safety Pierson Prioleau (ankle), cornerback Patrick Robinson (ankle) and offensive tackle Jon Stinchcomb (knee) were held out of practice.
Robinson and Hartley both said their nicks were minor. Robinson's came on the second play of the Saints 20-10 victory over Pittsburgh, and Hartley hurt what he said was his shin while getting near a fumble on a kickoff return. Hartley said it was, "100 percent, absolutely," that he would be good to go Sunday against Carolina.
Also looking better were starting cornerbacks Tracy Porter and Jabari Greer. Porter, recovering from surgery on his meniscus, was listed as full and Greer remained limited. Still, while Payton stopped short of speculating on their availability for Sunday, it is clear those key players are much closer to returning to action than Thomas and Bush.
Also listed as limited were wide receiver Marques Colston (hand), and listed but participating fully were center Jonathan Goodwin (groin), running back Chris Ivory (concussion), and linebacker Scott Shanle (hamstring).

Opinion 9.10 - Peer Review
Medical society ethics committees, hospital credentials and utilization committees, and other forms of peer review have been long established by organized medicine to scrutinize physicians' professional conduct. At least to some extent, each of these types of peer review can be said to impinge upon the absolute professional freedom of physicians. They are, nonetheless, recognized and accepted. They are necessary, and committees performing such work act ethically as long as principles of due process (Opinion 9.05, "Due Process") are observed. They balance the physician's right to exercise medical judgment freely with the obligation to do so wisely and temperately. (II, III, VII)

I remembered tasting these at the Fancy Food Show last year and was immediately impressed. Traditional gummi bears never really caught me, as I found the flavors to be too bland. These were just the opposite, with bold flavors and interesting ingredients. I vowed to keep and eye out for them in stores, and a few months later I was rewarded for my persistence. I chose the Blueberry Acai flavor over the Green Tea one I found as well. Something about the deep color of these just appealed to me, and I knew I'd have fun photographing them.
Firstly, I think it's cute how they refer to these as pandas and not bears. They're adorable to look at with little nubbins for arms and legs and bulgy eyes.
The pandas are beautiful in their simplicity. The gummi texture is just as it should be: nice balance of soft and firm so you get a chew, but nothing too hard so it isn't a difficult task to separate a head. Yes, I do like to do that sometimes. The flavor is wonderfully bright and fruity. You taste the blueberry and it's authentic, sweet, deep berry flavor with tart notes to it. I don't know quite what acai tastes like, but I'm sure it's in there.
I'll be picking these up again when my extremely rare craving for gummi bears, er, pandas arise.

Writer: Kurt Busiek

Reviewed by: Jason Larouche
Clark is now an adult and living in New York as a writer for the New Yorker, still living under the constant taunting over his name, this time led by a guy named Russ. Clark mentally looks back to an incident the previous evening involving a corporate jet whose engine was lost. As Superman, Clark was able to bring the plane to a safe landing by keeping it level by the wing. Camoflaged by the smoke, he's easily undetected and makes an easy disappearance. However, the secret agents from last issue are quick to respond and find Clark's handprints imbedded in the surface of the wing.
Back in the present, Clark is called into the office of his editor, Ms. Mittelmark. Mittelmark sees great potential in Clark's writing, but finds that it's mostly "all head and no heart." Nonetheless, a representative of Pantheon books, Adam Bilnes, had taken a look at one of his stories and is inquiring about a possible book deal with Clark. Clark agrees to think about it.
Later that evening at Rossi Restaurante, Clark's friends set him up on a blind date. The woman, an attractive black-haired lady named Lois, is instantly insulted and walks out. Clark catches up with her and apologizes for his friends' cruelty, saying he's under the same kind of treatment. He makes it up to her by offering to buy her dinner... at another restaurant of course. Over dinner, Clark is impressed that they like the same author and have other common qualities, except in the job market. Lois Chaudhari (not Lane) is a graphic designer. Clark is instantly smitten by her, even moreso after the kiss on her doorstep. He expresses this by flying away into the night.
Over the next few months, the relationship deepens, and so does the nagging guilt of Clark's over the needed secrecy regarding his double life.
One evening, on patrol, Clark sees a capsized sailboat in the waters and immediately dives into the water and guides it onto the shorelines. However, it turns out to be an elaborate scheme to lure him into a barrage of bazooka strikes that bring him down.
Later, in an undisclosed location, scientists in containment suits insert a naked and sedated Clark into an immersion tank. Due to a miscalculation as to the dosage they give him, Clark drifts in and out of consciousness, picking up on phrases like "previous twelve" and "estimated ages at the time of the meteor strikes." His mind also causes him to hallucinate, seeing one scientist as Brainiac, and another as a kryptonite armed Lex Luthor. Finally alone, Clark wakes up, breaks out of the tank and easily subdues the guards. He stumbles onto a morgue containing possibly the other twelve they mentioned... as well as an infant. He's repulsed and in his anger destroys the lab and sets the entire complex on fire. After dragging the guards to safety in the woods outside, Clark takes off.
Kent doesn't leave his apartment for four days, both afraid of the government agents tracking him and shocked that even after all these years since he first manifested his abilities that they're still after him. As for an explanation regarding his absence from work and Lois, he says his father's had a heart attack. Finally gaining the courage to step outside, he chooses to wear glasses so that none on the street would recognize him. At the New Yorker, he's instantly taunted by Russ about the glasses. Clark snaps and almost gets physical with Russ, but Mittelmark breaks it up by reminding him of his deadline.
At the offices of Pantheon books, armed with an idea for a book, Clark meets with Adam Bilnes and gets the job. He celebrates later that evening with Lois and company on his progression from writer to author. Still, the guilt of secrecy plagues him and he excuses himself. This guilt and paranoia begins to affect his work on the book and his relationship with Lois. The increased Superman sightings on the internet only adds to the fear. As a response, his heroics become more discreet (i.e., heating a carjacker's Uzi from a distance overhead, a swift save of a car falling off the Brooklyn Bridge, and getting a rescue dog in the mountains closer to his quarry) out of a suspicion that one of them may be another hoax to entrap him. At the top of the world, he screams in anger and confusion as to what the agents want with him.
After much debate, admitting to himself that he's in love for the first time in his life, he finally gets the courage to tell Lois the truth. He shows up at her apartment with a picnic basket for dinner on the roof. After dinner, Clark picks Lois up in his arms and asks her to unbutton his shirt. She shrugs off the possible "Lois-Clark" gag, but then Clark asks her to look down. Instead of the roof, they're standing in mid-air over Central Park seven stories high. They descend on the roof of the Cloisters where Clark comes clean with his secret. Instead of being frightened or angry... Lois relates to her boyfriend by confessing to a hidden shame. At fourteen she was arrested for shoplifting, although juvenile court sealed the records, she's afraid of it ever getting out. Finally at a point of reconciliation, Clark takes the native New Yorker on a tour of the city "as the city was meant to be seen". The tour culminates with a romantic kiss on top of the Statue of Liberty, then ends at a crab shack in North Carolina after Lois jokes about his having a "fortress of solitude". Internally Clark knows he made the right choice and, after one more passionate embrace, they both walk hand in hand to the shack.
Story - 4: This was a difficult rating because I was debating whether or not Busiek made the right choice by reestablishing the stereotypical Lois and Clark relationship. But after taking another look at the book, I see that a guy with the nagging burden of constant comparison to a fictional character could easily fall for a woman with the same problem. I'm just thankful Lois's last name is Chaudari rather than Lane. That'd be too much of a stretch. During the suspended animation scene, the mention of a meteor strike and more people like Clark seems too much like a "Smallville" tie-in, but then again how else would someone explain his abilities? The same elements of the first issue seem expanded on in this one, such as the journal entries, which serve to give the story a sense of movement. Again, I give props to Busiek's handling of Lois and Clark's budding romance. It doesn't seem exaggerated or unrealistic. I also like how Clark is a struggling writer instead of an ace-but-mild-mannered-reporter. And stationing it in New York rather than a fictional city of Metropolis serves to further that distinction between fact and fiction. Still, I don't like the notion of him wearing glasses. The best way that Kurt can handle the story is if he strays a little from the normal Superman conventions like that. But keeping Clark in costume is still a good strategy to cement him to the role and express how he's accepted that part of his life. How he handles it is where the realism gets across; rather than announce his presence to the world, he does this in secret, and the lack of Superman-related villains and subtrefuge works well in establishing a psuedo-realistic take on the Man of Steel.
Art - 5: Nothing new from Issue #1 with notable exceptions. The costume Clark wears looks more professional and traditional. The extra bulk he has really gives off the feeling of power that's required for the role. But where Immonen excels in again is his design of the characters. Keeping the government agents hidden in shadow during the immersion tank scene was good at continuing the secrecy and tight-lipped nature of Clark's pursuers. And the escape scene really captures the revulsion and anger in Clark's eyes at the government's tactics. But where I praise Stuart Immonen is in his design of Lois Chaudari. It's a mix of originality and tradition. The black hair is stereotypical Lois, but her mannerisms, wardrobe and tanned skin serve to set her apart from her comic book counterpart. The painted art really captures her exotic beauty and mischievious smile. It also serves to add depth and dimension to New York, giving it the romantic edge the flight between Lois and Clark required. Keep up the good work, Stuart.
Cover Art - 5: Immonen really nails this cover by having a classic Superman-carrying-Lois shot that puts the emphasis on this new relationship. And having the city in the background adds to the drama of the real-life super-couple.

(6:30 p.m.) -- Princess has announced that Crown Princess' next voyage, originally scheduled to depart New York's Brooklyn cruise terminal in Red Hook on July 20, will now set sail on July 22.
Crown Princess suffered a severe list yesterday while at sea and was forced to return to Port Canaveral. According to the cruise line's last statement, 240 passengers were treated for injuries, and the ship incurred superficial interior damage.
A spokeswoman for the line tells us that interior repairs are in progress. "The ship has not been cleared to sail yet but we are confident we will gain clearance in order to make our next departure out of New York on Saturday, July 22." Information on mechanical repairs is not available at this time.
Passengers booked on the July 20 cruise may cancel without cancellation fees; those that choose to sail the abbreviated itinerary calling at Grand Turk and King's Wharf will receive a 50 percent refund, and may submit for reimbursement out-of-pocket expenses incurred due to the change (such as airline change fees). Princess is asking those who need assistance with hotel accommodations to call 800-PRINCESS.
We'll continue to provide updates, so check back often.

No matter what the level, Michael Griffith has found success on the wrestling mat.
From being a state placer as a youth, to a state championship as a Junior High wrestler and a pair of trips to the State championships while competing for Medina High, the 2011 graduate has had quite a career.
The Mercyhurst University sophomore added another line to his resume Sunday placing fourth at the NCAA Division II Super Region to earn his first berth in the NCAA Division II tournament.
The 5-foot-9, 149-pounder rebounded from a loss in the consolation finals, to beat Pitt-Johnstown's Jack Bachman — who beat Griffith on Friday to send him to the wrestleback bracket — via a pin at 6:27 to earn the invitation to Alabama next month.
Griffith, who is currently 26-9 on the season, is the first Medina wrestler to qualify for nationals since 1996 when Sean Kiousis took sixth overall for the University of Findlay to earn All-American status.
Men's basketball
Junior guard Tyler Peters (Medina) led Wheaton College with 26 points, but the No. 20 Thunder fell in the semifinals of the CCIW Tournament to North Central 59-50. On Monday, Wheaton was awarded an at-large bid to the NCAA D-III Tournament and will host St. Norbert College Saturday. Peters was also a unanimous selection to the All-CCIW team on Monday after averaging 17.1 points, which included shooting 55.2 percent from the floor.
Local products Kyle Payne (Brunswick) and Kevin Krakowiak (Liverpool Twp. resident/Holy Name) were selected to the All-Ohio Athletic Conference team.
Payne earned first-team honors after finishing third in the OAC in scoring (16.6 points per game) and sixth in rebounding (6.2). Krakowiak was named to the second team after scoring 14.6 points, which included shooting 40.3 percent from beyond the arc.
Jacob Blevins (Highland) helped the University of Akron-Wayne College to the Ohio Regional Campus State championship this past weekend.
Women's basketball
Georgetown College locked up second place in the Mid-South Conference with a 92-74 victory over Lindsey Wilson. Dev King (Medina) had 13 points and six rebounds in the victory. Earlier in the week, King overcame foul trouble to finish with 12 points and seven boards for the No. 18 Tigers in an 83-68 win over Campbellsville.
Just days after surpassing the 1,000-career point plateau with a 21-point effort against William and Mary, Jackie Cook (Hinckley Twp. resident/Regina) celebrated Senior Day at Old Dominion in style. Cook netted 17 points and ripped down seven rebounds in the Monarchs 80-57 win over Hofstra. The guard also had two assists, a pair of steals and a block.
Ashland's Taylor Woods (Wadsworth) scored 14 points and Lindsay Tenyak (Wadsworth) added nine as Ashland downed Ohio Dominican 62-49. Woods added three assists.
Kagan Squire (Wadsworth) picked up a pin for Ohio University in a 40-6 drubbing of Gardner Webb. Squire needed just 2:41 to take down Tyler Zeigler.
Redshirt junior Tyler Houska (Highland) placed sixth overall at 285 pounds as No. 15 Ashland placed third as a team at the NCAA Super Region 2 Championships. Teammate Jake Piatt (Medina) finished one match away from placing.
George Mason's Matt Meadows (Medina resident/CVCA) dropped a 3-1 decision at 197 pounds to nationally-ranked Christian Boley as the Patriots lost to No. 24 Maryland 23-15.
Elaina Lanson (Wadsworth) anchored a pair of Georgia Southern relay teams to school-record times at the Coastal Collegiate Swimming Association Championships. Lanson helped the 200 medley and 400 freestyle units to record times, along with placing seventh in both the 100 backstroke (personal-record 56.06) and 100 free (51.61).
Indoor track and field
Ashland sophomore Jennifer Foster (Cloverleaf) used a record-breaking 5 feet, 9¼ inch leap to win the high jump at the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Championships. She also placed fourth in the pole vault with an 11-10¾ effort. Teammate Jacob Sussman (Wadsworth) was fifth in the 1 mile run (4:14.19) and 14th in the 3,000 run (8:46.99). David Knack (Medina) of Tiffin placed 22nd in the 5,000 run (16:03.17), while Lake Erie's Colleen Bednar (Brunswick) was sixth in the long jump (16-10). Sprinter Malik Tuck (Medina) helped Ohio Domincan's 4×400-meter relay to a season-best run of 3:18.69 to take seventh overall.
Florida's Taylor Burke (Medina) cleared 6-½ on her second attempt to place third overall in the high jump at the Southeastern Conference Championships held in Arkansas. The sophomore was an inch off the winning leap.
Jake Hiltner (Wadsworth) and Nick Owens (Brunswick) helped Akron's 4×4 relay to a third-place finish at the MAC Indoor Championships. Hiltner also was fourth in the 800 (1:52.74), while Owen's took fifth in the 400 (48.81).
Freshman Becca Herte (Black River) was 15th for Kent State in the pole vault at the MAC Championships. Taylor Wickey (Medina) ran on a distance medley relay unit that placed seventh overall.
Youngstown State's Clay Febus (Medina) clocked an 8.32 to finish fifth in the 60 hurdles at the Horizon League Championships.
Center fielder Jake Thomas (Buckeye) went 4-for-4 at the plate, driving in a pair of runs and scoring two as Bowling Green fell to Murray State 9-7. He continued his torrid streak against Murray State in a 2-1 loss as he had a pair of hits and drove in the Falcons lone run.
Left-hander Zach Gresch (Brunswick) went the distance, fanning three and walking one, as Notre Dame College defeated West Virginia State 5-1. Earlier this month, Gresch pitched a gem, allowing just one run in a 1-0 loss to nationally-ranked Tusculum (Tenn.).
Baldwin Wallace's Jerry Scholle (Highland) drilled a two-out single to score a pair of runs as the Yellow Jackets took down Shawnee State 7-6. Junior catcher Chaz McGrain (Liverpool Twp. resident/Olmsted Falls) drove in a run on a first-inning single.
Miami of Ohio freshman Chad Sedio (Highland) drove in a pair of runs on two hits, but Furman came away with the 6-5 decision.
Junior Dylan Cintula (Highland) had a hit as Findlay picked up its first win of the season with a 10-3 triumph over Bellarmine.
Alexis Lee (Medina) scored a run and McKenna Galloway (Brunswick) struck out three, but it wasn't enough as Ashland fell to Lincoln Memorial 5-4.
Men's tennis
Richmond's Ethan Dunbar (Cloverleaf) had a hand in four wins as the Spiders split with Georgetown and the University of Maryland-Baltimore County. Against the Hoyas, Dunbar teamed up with Paul Nahon III to win at doubles to go along with a three-set win at first singles.
Connor McBride (Medina) had a goal as St. Leo University edged Tampa 8-7 for its first win of the season.
Louisville's Nikki Boltja (Medina) sparked a 5-0 run with three of her four goals as the Cardinals crushed Old Dominion 21-3.

Another launch from nVidia, this time it is the 3D Glasses we told you about yesterday. Now that the lid is off we can tell you that nVidia has gone for a shutter technology that has some interesting requirements.
While most of the hardware needed is nothing special (you need a dual core CPU, Vista, and a series 8, 9, or 200 GPU from nVidia) where you will get hit is in the compatible monitor arena. There are very special requirements for this piece of hardware. For your average LCD you need a 120Hz model or a 100+Hz analog CRT. There are also a limited number of supported HD TVs and only one listed projector.
There is also a performance impact running the glasses so if you have a slow game it will be even slower running in 3DMode. Most seem to agree that the actual 3D view is very good but at $200 it is a tad on the expensive side.

Emily writes, "I'm on the hunt for the perfect everyday bag. With so many options out there, I thought it would be a breeze, but so far, everything is coming up short. I'm a new mom, but I don't want to haul a diaper bag around as my main bag when I don't have the little one in tow--but it needs to be big enough to hold a few essentials for quick trips around town. I'm looking for something with shorter straps to go over the shoulder as well as a cross-body strap for when I need more freedom of movement. The main compartment can't have a zipper or flap closure (too hard to open and close one-handed when I'm holding the baby) so a magnet closure or even an open top would be ideal. And a few outside pockets are always helpful as a place to stash phone, keys, wallet, etc. so I don't have to spend time digging around. Other than that, I like color and I don't want anything to "momish" or briefcase-looking. Thanks for your help!"
Hi Emily, Layla here! Phew, this was a toughie! All of these bags should meet your specifications, though two do have small flaps. From experience toting around my own purse and my own eleven-month old, you'll never keep a flap clasped shut, so you should have something that's easy-peasy to open one-handed. I hope I've found one that catches your eye!

2. Dooney & Bourke Editor's Tote ($198)
3. The Lovelock Tote ($268)
4. Calvin Klein Modena Leather Tote ($248)
5. Test Prep Satchel ($65)
6. Patricia Nash Overdyed Small Gave Tote ($198)

Layla here: At a strapping 5'2", I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve for fellow petite girls who need to look fashion fabulous. Plus, I make all of my beauty purchases online just so I can get free trial size samples in the mail. If you're not sure about a product, chances are I've tried it! I'd be glad to recommend my favs. I also have a knack for men's apparel and gifts, especially geek guy gifts, thanks to the expertise of my own gadget-inclined guy.
I get wanting one-hand access, but it seems obvious that you can leave a zipper open. And then when you dno't have the kid - and want to secure yoru stuff - you can close it. Problem solved. I had a diaper bag w/o a good closure, and it ended up being a total pain because if it was tossed around or knocked over (often) shit would spill out everywhere. Nothing worse than having a baby's pacifier spill out onto the floor of an airplane. GROSS.
I would also say check out Coach bags they have a tote that looks like a purse that comes with a changing pad. That's my fav!
TYLER RODAN! All of his purses are amazingly durable, have a TON of pockets, and most of them have magnet closures. They're also fairly affordable, come in neutral shades, and can be found at places like TJ Maxx for a quarter of the price of these other bags!

 Depending on the size and quantity, printing could be a better option, but it really depends on how many you're making and the size. I'd only consider it if you're talking small stuff. Is the stuff you're working on licensed, or more just for legion folks? I've been using 3D printing to make the master, and then doing silicon molds and presssure castings because of the cost.

Gravity FIlter!
I used mine to make a gravity setup with a sawyer filter. The fittings also work with my Katadyn filter for leak free switching of hoses. These are great for the hoser bladder which doesn't come with the QD fittings like the big zip. Wish these were about 50% cheaper though! =)
Convert your bladder
this is the ticket! Hate re-threading the tube everytime you want to fill or empty the bladder? Buy this and your troubles are over. make sure you have the right sized tube diameter though. This is an in-line connector. I use it for a camel-back bladder tube. Does not fit Nalgene tubes.
If you filter, it may be worth it
I bought two of these to use with two CamelBak 3L bladders for a week in Yellowstone NP. Absolutely no problems with either valve. I put a female end on both drinking hoses, one male end on a short section of hose with a bite valve, and the other male end on a section of hose I attached to my MSR HyperFlow filter. Pumping straight from the filter into the bladder was very easy, and being able to change bladders quickly on the trail was nice. I also found that I could plug the male/filter hose into a bladder for a strong stream of water, without messing with a bite valve.
After fighting to pump water into a CamelBak bladder's main opening, using the Platypus Quick-Disconnect Kit was well worth the money to me.
Quick-Disconnect - AWESOME
This is fabulous. I bought 2 sets. I use one set for my Camelbak 100 oz and the second set for my Platypus 100 oz. I have the quick-disconnect on my hydration bladder's hose just about 4" up from my mouthpiece. So, all I do is drop the input hose of my Katadyn Hiker PRO water filter into the creek (or water source) and I put the output hose of the water filter straight into my bladder and fill-er up!
I hike with anywhere from 5-20 people and I am the only one who doesn't have to take off my backpack and completely empty it to fill my hydration bladder. I just disconnect my mouthpiece and hook straight into the hose and it is awesome! I could literally fill up and be back on the trail in about 4-5 minutes (including getting the water filter out and putting it back up). But, because everyone else has to set their packs down & empty them, it takes about 20 minutes.
I love it!
I have an older Platypus, so I had to cut some of the hose to attach the quick-disconnect couple to the bag. So far it works great and is so much easier to get the bag in and out of my backpack.
Is this interchangeable with the Osprey quick connect pieces? (Can I plug thre female end of a platypus connector into the male end of an osprey one / vice versa)
Any reason why I should buy this quick disconnect for a Platypus Hoser instead of the CamelBak Quick Link, which literally costs half as much? $20 for a Q/D seems... unreasonable.
Is this the same assembly found at the...
Is this the same assembly found at the base of the Platypus's gravity works dirty water reservoir?
Yeah, with the exception of the female end on the reservoir being built-in. But all the quick-disconnect fittings for the Platys and MSR stuff are compatible.
Will these work with the msr dromedary...
Will these work with the msr dromedary hydration kit?
Yep, same diameter, coupling type, etc.
I was in the shop checking one of these...
I was in the shop checking one of these out and it looks like it is not the correct diameter to fit the hydration tubes from Osprey Packs. Does anyone know of one of these that will fit the wider tubes, or suggest a reliable modification to get this one to work?
i dont think it will fit, couldnt tell you for sure without buying it myself...a lot of manufacturers make specific diameters for their products making it nearly impossible to use them with another brand's similar product. but i modified my tube length from my Osprey 3L hydration bladder with scissors, plumbing tape (i am pretty sure it's nylon-) and plain old black electrical tape. hasnt leaked in a couple months so far. as long as the diameter on this is smaller than the Osprey one you can make it work.
Yeah... so I'm not really buying the...
Yeah... so I'm not really buying the previous answer regarding the number of male ends this thing comes with because the answer was completely different from the picture. Does this come with 1 female end for the hydration side and 1 male end for the drink tube side as the picture indicates or does it come with an extra male end you can put on your filter to back feed like with the camelback that is currently out of stock?
I just received mine and you get exactly what you see in the product picture: 1 male & 1 female end. To make use of this product, you'll need to buy at least two kits. That's too bad, because the CamelBak Hydrolink Filter Adapter Kit actually has three pieces and costs a little less. The Platypus solution looks more elegant and durable, so you make the call.
does this come with one or two male...
does this come with one or two male ends?
Actually, three male ends in total. Two male ends that fit into each end of your tube (or tube and bag) and then the male/female coupling for the quick-disconnect.
Will this quick-disconnect couple to the...
Will this quick-disconnect couple to the quick-disconnect that comes with the Katadyn hiker pro?
It should connect to the Hiker without a problem. What I have done with mine is put the male end of the connection into output the hose of your Katadyn and you are all set.
They definitely fit! My Katadyn fittings plug right into my Platypus big zip with no leaks. The big zip has the same fittings as these.
Happy T's

Some people choose falafels for Meatless Mondays, but for vegans and vegetarians, falafels are just as delicious during the rest of the week. The Middle Eastern cuisine is made from chickpeas, vegetables and seasonings. With the breaded outer layer, pita bread is optional but a good combination.
For suburban residents, Naf Naf Grill has a scrumptious falafel plate that includes pita, tahini, pickles, hot pepper mix, and basmati rice, Israeli salad or homemade fries.
There are a couple of Chicago locations sprinkled around at 326 N. Michigan Ave., and 309 W. Washington St.
North siders are close enough to the Skokie location at 5716 W. Touhy Ave., and the Evanston location at 1629 Orrington Ave.
Illinois suburban residents and Chicago Metra riders can get close to other locations by the BNSF Railway Metra trains or Union Pacific West Line Metra trains. The Naperville restaurant is at 1739 Freedom Dr., and the Aurora restaurant is at 4430 Fox Valley Center Dr.
Or, skip the BNSF train ride altogether and enjoy Jaffa Bagels in Ogilvie Transportation Center West at 500 West Madison Street. Feel like staying home? GrubHub is a highly recommended website for deliveries, and it keeps track of all restaurant delivery hours, locations and radius.
Enjoy a veggie falafel sandwich with hummus, lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes from Jaffa Bagels from the comfort of Chicago homes.
The service is friendly and professional at the Naperville location of Naf Naf Grill and Ogilvie's Jaffa Bagels. Any time a restaurant's service is as good as the food, it's worth a visit.

As we continue to watch the influx of immigrants across the southern borders, one thing has become painfully obvious. We as a nation are going to have to accept that a new population of people are positioning themselves to become citizens in this country. This is not an entirely new development in the history of our country. The problem is that we have short memories, and it has been a few years since we have seen a mass migration of people fleeing, not necessarily for better opportunities, but for their lives. Palestinian families are fleeing for their lives currently as well. The only difference is the type of war that is being waged in South America compared to the Gaza Strip.
We do not have to look too far back to remember the migration of people from Russia to destinations around the world when the Soviet Union broke apart. War was constant as new country lines were being drawn. Cuban immigrants who survived the trip set up cities under freeway bridges in Florida in an attempt to escape Fidel Castro and his regime. But even more dramatic is the idea that there are people still alive who remember what Adolf Hitler was doing to anyone who did not look a certain way. Jewish immigrants who did try to flee to America were turned away and sent back to Europe. A decision that American historians will never forget. But a position that our government quickly changed upon the arrival of the American military into Europe, and reported back what was actually happening there. The situation that we are facing in the south is something that we as Americans can and must accept, and try to grow from it.
Hopefully more state leaders like Gov. Deval Patrick (D) Massachusetts will step and accept immigrants in their states.
A move that will possibly cost him his job one day, but one that is very courageous.

Shirley Stockstill's 103-year-old mother had to move from her nursing home this spring.
"I believe you're going to find nursing homes all over the state closing. The system is broken."
Eric Jewel, former Honor Services executive
Where she was staying, Conner House in Canyon, no longer accepted Medicaid, and the family had to pony up almost $3,200 a month for her to stay.
Instead, the family moved Gladys Dixon to Canyon Healthcare, which accepts Medicaid.
But the problem the family confronted faces many others: An inability to pay for an elder's long-term care.
Dixon lived off her Social Security, teacher's retirement and four daughters before qualifying for Medicaid.
"It didn't cover her private-pay rent," Stockstill said.
AARP studies show private-pay rates for nursing-home care in Texas increased from $103 a day to $114 a day between 2003 and 2005.
That's nearly a 10 percent increase in two years. The MetLife Mature Market Institute said the national average for the cost of a semiprivate nursing-home room increased 28 percent from 2002 to 2006.
Gerry Hollinger, senior vice president for Baptist Community Services which runs Ware Living Center, said nursing-home care has increased at about the same rate as other services.
"When you break it down, I don't think there's been that much of an increase," Hollinger said.
He said a semiprivate room in Amarillo runs between $100 and $140 a day.
A room that costs $125 a day still runs $45,625 a year.
Most people don't save enough money for long-term care, said Mary Jo Gibson, AARP policy advisor for independent living and long-term care.
She said people tend to live in nursing homes paying out of pocket until they expend all their assets. Then they qualify for Medicaid, which pays for almost all of the costs.
With a large portion of elderly on Medicaid, the majority of a nursing home's income is dependent on the program's reimbursements or government subsidies for treating a Medicaid patient.
Texas ranks 39th in the country for its Medicaid reimbursements, according to the AARP. Homes receive an average of $96 per Medicaid resident per day.
"There's very little reimbursements for nursing homes," Hollinger said.
He said reimbursements are barely enough to keep their doors open.
For-profits have trouble making money so most successful nursing homes are nonprofit.
Palo Duro Nursing and Rehabilitation, an Amarillo nursing home owned by Lubbock-based Honor Services, abruptly shut its doors July 20 after months of financial hardship.
The state doesn't pay nursing homes enough money to function, said Eric Jewel, former Honor Services executive and brother of owner James Jewel.
"I believe you're going to find nursing homes all over the state closing," Jewel said. "The system is broken."
George Linial, president of the Texas Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, said Medicaid funds about 70 percent of the nursing-home care in the state.
"Those facilities heavily dependent on Medicaid really struggle," Linial said.
The base Medicaid rate has not been recalculated recently, and Linial said the state Health and Human Services Commission estimated nursing homes are reimbursed about 20 percent to 30 percent behind what they should be.
"You almost have to have a mix of people paying privately and those on Medicaid," Linial said.
He said consumers need to plan for their long-term care earlier.
"Most people are bad at that," Linial said.
People should examine things like long-term care insurance and research nursing homes where they might live in the future.
"It will become a reality in the future," Linial said.

finally i dreamt about him again
i've been longing to feel something that i've felt when i was younger
i guess it turned into obsession
and finally i dreamt about him
i miss him
i wonder how he thought about me yelling at him on the last day we've ever seen each other
i wonder if he had forgiven me
but then again...
why did he react like that?
he seemed devastated
i mean
he walked away from me and sat down
...i yelled at him
he got up and walked away
i guess he was frustrated
......why can't he see that it was all just a cover up?
i was too coward to pour my heart out
so instead i helped someone pour her heart out to him
she asked me to say goodbye to him....
i refused at first
but i thought...i messed up to this point..
can't get any worse
i called his name several times but he didn't even budge
so i just said "BYE"
went home and cried...
i should've said sorry at least for making his last day worse
i should've just kept quiet
at least that way it would be happier for me...
to keep those happy memories that i've accumulated without feeling guilty
it was so great but i had to ruin it
i'm sorry
Emotions running high
Just the way I live my life....unfortunately

I have aways loved art and craft. Some of my earliest memories are of being taught knitting by my mother, sitting on the floor copying the pictures out of my colouring-in book while she sketched, and of making beds out of match boxes for my miniature baby dolls. Once I was older I still painted and sketched and I made my own clothes. When my children arrived I became immersed in patchwork and quilting as well as embroidery and making lovely clothes for them. Sketching and painting went by-the-by when my children decided it was much more exciting to paint and draw on Mummy's work than their own! They were encouraged to do their own artworks but mine took the form of needle and thread. Now that they are in their 20's I am revisiting the sketching and painting to my heart's content but with the aim of using it as a basis for my fibre arts.
My 'real' job (don't you hate it when it's called that!) is in the accounts field, working on computers each day. I enjoy it and am fascinated with the internet. It amazes me how quickly you can get information and the doors that it opens. This website combines my love of the arts with my fascination with the internet and business. I am so lucky to have a certain amount of skill in both that can allow to me spread my wings and explore.
I really hope that you like what you see here and that you find something that will help you to create your own work of art. Feel free to change things a little and use your own self-expression with them so that they are truly a part of you.
And remember - HAVE FUN!

EVANSVILLE, Ind. -- The Southern Illinois University cross country teams traveled to Evansville, Ind. for the University of Evansville Invitational Saturday and came home with first place honors in the men's 8K and second place in the women's 5K.
The men's team was dominant placing seven runners in the top-25 to win their second team title of the season. Senior Neal Anderson led the way placing second overall with a time of 25:12.18. Brian Dixon followed in the third spot with a time of 25:16.30.
Just behind Dixon were Zach Dahleen placing fifth with a time of 25:34.96 and Cole Allison placing sixth posting a time of 25:36.32. Lucas Cherry finished with a time of 25:51.58 to round out the top ten.
"It is always good to get a win. Today was a good confidence builder," said SIU coach Matt Sparks. "I was especially excited to see Cole Allison mix it up with our leaders."
Kulayifi Haji placed 20th with a time of 26:22.11, Evan Ehrenheim followed closely placing 23rd with a time of 26:30.94. TJ Heffernan and Brad Wrage also competed for the Salukis placing 28th and 82nd, respectively.
On the women's side once again Lacey Gibson was the top finisher for the Salukis placing second overall with a 5K finish time of 18:14.79.
"Lacey Gibson continues to shine. Her confidence is growing by the week," Sparks said. "We just need the other girls to feed off of her energy."
Sadie Darnell and Mobola Rotibi placed 36th and 49th, respectively to finish inside the top 50. Also competing for the women were Jamie Hershfang, Kaylyn Shaw, and Madeline Sopena.
"I am proud of their efforts, finishing second behind a good Belmont team is nothing to be embarrassed about."
The Salukis will look to continue their success when they travel to Terra Haute, Ind. on Oct. 30 to compete in the Missouri Valley Conference Championships.

How do some baristas get Tanya when you tell them your name is Danielle? Or Lindsay out of Lisa? It's mind-boggling sometimes, but we suppose the constant noise of coffee being ground can do a number on the hard-working coffee slingers' ears. Assure that your name is never butchered again with your very own ceramic reusable mug ($12), which masquerades as a standard to-go cup except with a special chalkboard surface. Write your name on it before you step up to the counter to assure you'll always be able to identify your order when it's called - unless, that is, the barista decides to invent a brand new pronunciation.

So, in the first part of this article on the lesson entitled, "The Israel Connection," I mentioned why Israel was regathered, as a nation, to her Promised Land and concluded, from the Bible, that it was hers from the beginning (Genesis 17:7 – 8, NKJV). Now, I want to address how Israel was (and still is in the process of being) regathered to her rightful homeland. Again, I mentioned previously that Israel was scattered (referred to as the Jewish Diaspora), primarily for her disobedience to God in disregarding their covenant obligations, and, consequently, the "land of Israel was overrun by Gentiles" (Jeremiah, 2008). In fact, God warned Israel, speaking through Moses, in Deuteronomy 4:27, regarding this very matter, stating "And the Lord will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations, where the Lord will drive you" (NKJV). God also told Israel, "And among those nations you shall find no rest, nor shall the sole of your foot have a resting place; but there the Lord will give you a trembling heart, failing eyes, and anguish of soul" Deuteronomy 28:65, NKJV). And indeed, Israel suffered tremendously during the Diaspora, which included the dreadful Holocaust, perpetrated by Nazi Germany in World War II. I remember visiting Washington, D.C. in 1995, with my wife, Janice, and visiting the Holocaust Memorial…What an unforgettably agonizing experience that was!
Nevertheless, God promises to "…recover the remnant of His people who are left…and to gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the Earth" (Isaiah 11:11 – 12, NKJV). And the realization of that great promise will not be totally fulfilled until God establishes His Millennial Reign of peace (Revelation 20:1 – 6, NKJV). Yet even today, Jews are returning to their homeland, in droves, from all over the world. One organization that I am particularly proud of and support, in this effort, is the International Fellowship of Christians & Jews (Wings of Eagles Program), which specifically aids Jews in, all aspects of, the tireless process of immigrating back to Israel. For more information on this amazing Wings of Eagles program and how you can donate to a very worthwhile cause, please click on their website here (http://www.ifcj.org/site/PageNavigator/eng/programs/on_wings_of_eagles/about_on_wings_of_eagles).
Truly, God is not done with Israel, Friend, and that means He is not done with you or me, for that matter! Have you turned your heart and life over to Him yet? That is my prayer for you and Israel this Easter Holiday. Stay tuned for the next lesson on our journey together with Pastor Jeremiah in the "What in the World is Going On? Bible Study Series---The Crude Awakening…See you then!

Escuela of the Streets
In this mission, Manny Escuela requests your assistance in "cleaning the streets" of Bohan of known drug dealers.
He first instructs you to get a vehicle and follow a group of drug dealers as they move through the streets of Bohan in a car. You must be careful not to get too close to their car, or they will spot you. Follow the drug dealers' car until they arrive at a run-down warehouse, and then park behind them. After a short cutscene, Manny tells you to follow the dealers into the warehouse and then kill them.
You will quickly find that the door used by the dealers to enter the warehouse is locked. You must find another entrance, and if you take long enough, Manny will send you a text message saying that for every door that closes, a window opens. This is a hint to enter the warehouse through one of its windows. There are two large windows at the front of the warehouse, to the left of the locked door. Shoot one of them with a firearm to break the glass, and then climb on to the ledge and into the warehouse. The shooting of the glass will startle the drug dealers inside the warehouse, so they will be ready for you as you enter, and it may even alert the police.
Once inside the warehouse, take cover behind one of the many stacks of boxes, and shoot all of the drug dealers (there are roughly five or six of them). When all of them have been killed, you can leave the warehouse and Manny will pick you up. However, if the cops have been alerted, you will need to lose your wanted level first.

Early pioneers of this area were a hardy bunch. They traveled long and hard in order to get here, bringing everything that they thought they would need in order to survive. It was this necessity of self-sufficiency that had them grow, gather or hunt for their food, make their own clothing and even invent and play their own music. Those days are long past but you can still get a sample of what it was like living in the Ohios at the annual Cleveland Metroparks "FallFest".
On September 28, 2014 from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Cleveland Metroparks will be presenting "FallFest" at Meadows Picnic Area in Brecksville Reservation.
While visiting you can watch a blacksmith create useful and decorative items from raw steel, play with pioneer toys, try some fresh pressed cider, talk with pioneer reenacters and dip candles. Local contra dance band Mud in Yer Eye will perform, as well as a "colonial magician." Children will be able to make a pot of posies to take home. FallFest also features pony rides, refreshments and souvenirs for sale. This is a family friendly event that is a treat for the entire family.
Also on hand will be The Brigade of the American Revolution whose 1700s encampment will be available for you to tour. Learn what it was like to be a British soldier thousands of miles away from home or a colonial patriot fighting for his freedom. Later in the day there will be a demonstration skirmish showing how the colonials fought the professional British troops.
For more information, visit clevelandmetroparks.com or call (440) 526-1012.
Meadows Picnic Area is located off Meadows Drive in Brecksville Reservation, off Chippewa Creek Drive near Route 82 in Brecksville.

- Description: This is my invention of necessity, I copied some ideas from some big headed greedy folks but substituted most of the materials for cheap and easy to get stuff from the hardware store. It is sold by big-n-rich companies as plastic molded trays and shipped to you freight but don't be fooled, you still have to build it when you take that out of the box. And theirs costs around $1,600. for 14 holes. For that much money they should come put it together for you. This cost just under $650. to build for 23 holes and that includes the price of the wire rolls and cage making supplies also. Plywood, 2x4's, 2x2's, tarps and vinyl gutters are all that's used. You can build one yourself without having to take yours apart several times to get the pitch right, I can save you time and money with my plans and detailed instructions and it's all available for the low low price of....Free. Yes, free. Holler at me and I will send you measurements and photos. But how do I contact Hillbilly Hares? Well we are on You Tube about every 3 months so if you want a fast response go to our website and contact us through either of the methods listed. All we ask is that you share with others just as we have, and a mention of our name would be really appreciated too.
