Saying he is "sympathetic to late night comedians' struggle to find jokes to make about me," Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) today issued a list of official campaign-approved Barack Obama jokes.
The five jokes, which Sen. Obama said he is making available to all comedians free of charge, are as follows:
Barack Obama and a kangaroo pull up to a gas station. The gas station attendant takes one look at the kangaroo and says, "You know, we don't get many kangaroos here." Barack Obama replies, "At these prices, I'm not surprised. That's why we need to reduce our dependence on foreign oil."
A traveling salesman knocks on the door of a farmhouse, and much to his surprise, Barack Obama answers the door. The salesman says, "I was expecting the farmer's daughter." Barack Obama replies, "She's not here. The farm was foreclosed on because of subprime loans that are making a mockery of the American Dream."
A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, "Why the long face?" Barack Obama replies, "His jockey just lost his health insurance, which should be the right of all Americans."
Q: What's black and white and red all over?
Barack Obama: The New Yorker magazine, which should be embarrassed after publishing such a tasteless and offensive cover, which I reject and denounce.
A Christian, a Jew and Barack Obama are in a rowboat in the middle of the ocean. Barack Obama says, "This joke isn't going to work because there's no Muslim in this boat."

Democratic T-Shirt / Donation
Whatever you believe as a Democrat or Liberal, we need to not elect John McCain as a nation.

Seriously. Now.
The Era of Bad Feelings Infects the Democratic Party
If early 1800s represented an Era of Good Feelings, our times should go down in history as the Era of Bad Feelings. Nowhere has that been better exemplified than in the current nastiness pervading the Democratic Party. Although Barack Obama has for all extensive purposes won the nomination, the forces of Hillary Clinton claim she deserves to be the candidate and that they would rather vote for someone else or not vote at all than vote for Obama.

Powell On Our Side?
"I will vote for the individual I think that brings the best set of tools to the problems of 21st-century America and the 21st-century world regardless of party, regardless of anything else other than the most qualified candidate," Powell said at a news conference before delivering the speech, the newspaper reported. "Both of them certainly have the qualifications to be the president of the United States, but both of them cannot be."
Asked whether he thought it was a difficult choice, he said: "I think so. Yes."
Just not towing the party line – although "party" and "line" amongst Republicans is in disarray right now – is enough for a little joy jump. What a coup it would be if he threw his support behind Obama.
Which Is Better? A Decent Dem Or 4 More Wars… Er… Years of McBush?
I think that pretty much sums up the situation at hand, folks.
Barack Obama, the Antichrist
I'm not joking.
Welcome to the nutter cavalcade. We have a dedicated blog, a Snopes post (false!), and even Glenn Beck, resident douchebag, is seriously asking the question.
Unmentioned at all sources: how the book of Revelation, source of Antichrist dogma, and readily accepted by many biblical scholars as an allegory of Roman oppression of Christianity, is even moderately equatable to modern times.
Halloween stories and fairy tales, and a little extreme in execution, but more examples – and I'm afraid we'll find them a-plenty – of Ways Republicans Can Hate Barack Without Appearing Racist. They'll probably have a book out soon.
Americans Are In Trouble: Debt, Declining Life Expectancy, Shorter Too
Thinking of Bobby Kennedy's real passion during his '68 campaign for the American worker highlights exactly why our candidates – and our next president – needs to pay some serious attention to the plight of Americans, especially those of the working and middle class.
Yet everybody better start paying attention to the American worker, who is greater in debt (less and less see any relief from debt outside of bankruptcy or death), more likely to have to work two jobs or more just to survive, less likely to receive appropriate and timely health care, and under greater measures levels of clinical depression, fatigue, and stress than ever before. See my next (up) post.
New studies show Americans across the board (rather than pockets of wild wealth in a sea of people who have relatively little to nothing in comparison) are doing much worse financially than their European peers, AND that both our height and life expectancy is turning from new longevity to a shortening (yes, we're living less longer and no longer growing as tall as our European neighbors, which is believed due to our harsh working schedule, bad diet, and far less accessibility to health care since most civilized nations have some type of universal access to care).
Oh, and our infant mortality rate is on its way back up. Not good.
Interestingly, the beginning of the "change" we're seeing in less health for Americans dates back to about 1982. Hmmm… Reagan was in office, and advocating an economy that allowed for a handful of rich fatcats with the rest forced to buy his bumper sticker foreign policy. Much of the rule since 1982 has been Republican. Coincidence?
Not Exactly Hugs Between Hillary And Barack, But That's OK
The media has waited with baited breath – and a volume of verbiage the world has rarely seen outside of coverage of Paris Hilton and Brittney Spears' crotches – for Hillary to do her concession bit and for the two to hug and cry together. But they're not giving that to us – at least, not yet. And either way, it's OK.
I don't want this to be a presidency driven solely by sound bytes and carefully crafted media images. I don't expect two people who've fought so hard for their own campaigns (or the myriad thousands who've labored for them) to sudden love each other and make nice.
I don't want Hillary Clinton named VP (and I think any announcement there will come much closer to the convention, if not at the convention itself in late August in Denver) simply because she was "the other candidate." If there's a better person for the Obama Democratic ticket, then I want that person considered. We're not into legacies here, unless it's the legacy for ALL of America, and not for a relatively privileged few (named Bush or Clinton or Kennedy, et al).
But what we need most of all is for the American people to unite in an understanding that the way ahead is tough regardless of how we go: that we may have to accept a period of increased hardship to try to get this nation – and the world that watches it – back on track. We're already hurting; we can probably survive a little more.
And unlike the Bush-McCain technique, we need to take care of America's working and middle classes through good education, job training, health care, and so much more. The Bush-McCain technique is to give and give to the wealthiest, and the rest have to wait til it trickles down the inner leg of the fatcat Republican peeing gold.
Obama Names Vice President Search Team With Cheney's Smirk
Caroline Kennedy has been named to head up a three-person VP search team for Democratic presumptive nominee, Barack Obama.
This differs from George Bush's 2000 VP search team, headed by Dick Cheney, with only Cheney serving as membership, and – surprise! – decided Dick Cheney would be the best candidate for the job!
But does anyone worry with as much as Cheney is smirking and still acting like cock of the walk that you wonder if HE knows something (like what really went on with September 11th and Iraq, to name but a few) you don't, which is why he's not worried about having to leave the WH anytime soon.
Feeling Primary Letdown?
When I awoke this morning, I felt different. It took me an hour or two to figure out why: we don't have to talk about Democratic Primary races anymore because they ended yesterday.
While I found this primary season more interesting than any other in my lifetime, the drama wasn't so much in what the candidates said or did, and certainly not in the debates (which I find useless when you've got 8-10 people vying for questions from a potential 300 million member audience).
No, the big change – the refreshing air – is not just that we'll be Bush-less (we hope) come January 20th next, but that we went through a primary season where a woman and a black man got all the attention. I never expected to be half way through my life before this happened, so I'll focus on how wonderful it is now that it's here.
And it's not any woman, not any black man. While Obama found privilege, it certainly wasn't awarded to him by society. He – and his wife, and I think Michelle Obama is great – worked damn hard for all they have.
And while it's easy to dis Hillary (it seems), she's been part of a wave of people who came of age in the 60s and 70s who, while making their own way, have contributed MUCH to the overall quality of life in this country and beyond.
So rather than feel just relief at no primary discussion today, I've got to appreciate that while the Republicans handed us the same old fat old white man (McCain), the Dems delivered at least some of the change we desperately need.
Well, Here We Go: Obama Says He's The Nominee
Hillary Clinton may not be conceding yet, but as predicted, Barack Obama – based on delegate counts – has just announted "I will be the nominee."
Who Will Be The New Congressional Democratic Lions?
I hate to bring up such a sad subject at such a tough time but, considering times don't appear headed for wild wonderfulness any year soon and the subject's too important to ignore, here goes:
With the hospitalizations of two of the Senate longest reigning Democrats, Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts and Robert Byrd of West Virginia, who will be our new lions? Do we have any in the making?
Vermont's newest Senator, long-time Socialist House Rep, Bernie Sanders is already proving to be a fire brand. But he arrived in the upper house a bit late. Wellstone is dead. Corzine, who showed promise, went to be governor of New Jersey. We'll have to see if Hillary and Barack remain in the Senate after this year (some speculation has Hillary being handed the governorship of New York on a platter, but I'd love to see what resigned-gov Eliot Spitzer's replacement, David Patterson as the state's first leader of color, will do).
Have any contenders we should watch for?
The Day of "Over" …?
Hillary Rodham Clinton will concede Tuesday night that Barack Obama has the delegates to secure the Democratic nomination, campaign officials said, effectively ending her bid to be the nation's first female president.
The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City. She will pledge to continue to speak out on issues like health care. But for all intents and purposes, the two senior officials said, the campaign is over.
Most campaign staff will be let go and will be paid through June 15, said the officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to divulge her plans.
I like both Democratic candidates, and would vote for either in November. I guess that's why I feel a sadness that this struggle is coming to an end for one. But my sadness is probably premature. There is a great deal of politicking to be done before the end of August.
Are We At The Eve Of "Over"?
According to Keith Olbermann on MSNBC's Countdown Monday night, Hillary Clinton is giving every signal of suspending her campaign today, as the final two Democratic primaries play out.
However, it should also be noted that a suspended campaign can be resurrected, right up to and including at Convention time in late August.
Watching The DNC Rules Committee At Work
I'm not certain quite the purpose for showing the inner workings of the Democrats' Rules Committee as they wrestle with the issue of delegates and super delegates in contested states Florida and Michigan.
On the one hand, I think it's valuable to some to understand how all this gets worked out re: who will be the Democratic Party nominee. On the other, however, bringing out (so called, cough, cough) big guns like CNN's Wolf Blitzer to discuss things like the Austin petition and half votes and whether Howard Dean will say, "yeeehaaaaaw" again (he won't, but CNN likes to make Dems seem dumb) makes the whole thing seem a little ditzy.
Me? I suspect it's a ratings black hole.
Late Night Political Jokes
"John McCain's in the news. Earlier today, John McCain released 1,200 pages of his medical records. Or, as his doctor calls it, Chapter One." –Conan O'Brien
"I guess McCain is scheduled to meet with three possible vice presidential nominees this weekend at his home. The candidates are very excited to go. They say the only downside — they hate it when he keeps pushing that bowl of ribbon candy on them. 'Try the butterscotch.'" –Jay Leno
"Well, actually, on the news, they stress that these vice presidential meetings were only preliminary. And before any final decision is made, they say that McCain will sit down with his senior advisers. His senior advisers? The guy is 71. What, are they from the Millard Fillmore administration?" –Jay Leno
"And McCain released 1,200 pages of medical documents this week, to prove that he is healthy. 1,200 pages to prove he's healthy? Man. Man, how many does Dick Cheney have? My God!" –Jay Leno

DNC: Will Democratic Race End Soon?
Well, this is the weekend the Rules Committee of the Democratic National Convention meets to hammer out what's happening with delegates and super delegates, Florida and Michigan primary votes and what to do with them, et al.
Both DNC chair Howard Dean and many other ranking Dems have said they expect the race to be over soon after June 3rd, the date of the last scheduled donkey primary; that a commitment from superDs on who they'll cast ballots for is wanted soon thereafter.
Yet others are beginning to suggest this is a race that may continue all summer through to the Dem National Convention in Colorado, the first time the convention's been a real political potboiler since at least 1972. And I'm not sure Dems would be hurt badly by a later decision either: as long as the DNC continues its smart ads that target John McCain rather than a Hillary Clinton or a Barack Obama, I doubt there's a danger. We've seen an exodus AWAY from the Republican and even the uncommitted voters coming into this presidential election cycle; I strongly resist the notion that something will magically drive these candidates back to Mad Dog McCain. You?
Hillary Clinton And The RFK Assassination Reference
Is it just me or is this issue being blown out of all possible proportion?
As Time and some other media outlets note, Hillary has referenced the June candidate selection before using her husband's '92 selection as candidate and the Bobby Kennedy candidacy that went on until he was shot in June 1968 as markers. This seems to be the same thing she was doing in answering this question.
But, my God, last night people were calling her race effectively over, with no hopes of the VP slot, for making the same reference… one even Bobby Kennedy's son insisted should not be construed as offensive.
Will 2009 Be The End For Many Lefty Sites?
After eight dark years of Bush/Cheney, I'm looking ahead to the world of lefty blogs and websites without dub-yah and with, most likely, a President Obama. Many lefty sites will likely close-up shop as their theme is anti-dub-yah and he'll be out of the picture: Smirking Chimp, BushFlash, Backwards Bush, BuckFush, Bush Watch, DubyaSpeak, George W Bush or Chimpanzee, and on and on. But what about the rest of us?
Obama's campaign has been built around the idea that an Obama presidency will not tolerate the divisiveness of "politics as usual". That it's time to unite Dems and repugs. And there's even talk of having repugs in his cabinet and, God forbid, a centrist repug VP.
So the question is, are left-wing, or ultra left-wing bloggers "politics as usual"? Yes, you could probably say they get much of the credit for Obama's position as the presumptive nominee. But how can you say they're not divisive and what Obama considers "politics as usual"? Part of the problem. Toxic rhetoric. His own supporters have described Clinton as a racist bitch, a f-ing whore, and a monster. How could an Obama presidency have any credibility unless he denounces the rhetoric of lefty bloggers?

I recently heard a radio interview with the 'chair' (not chairman, chairwoman or chairperson) of the Institute of Equality and Diversity Practitioners. I think I may finally have tracked down the elusive elite who decide what causes offence to 'communities' what terminology is no longer acceptable, and what terms they are to be replaced with. It also made me realise that the world of diversity and equality has become such a huge monolithic industry that it relies on division and inequality for its very existence. There are thousands and thousands of people in this country, both public and private sector, who seek to find bias and discrimination in every area of life. It is their life blood. They are the thought police. They decide whether you are racist or sexist. You must be. Otherwise we wouldn't need diversity and equality practitioners. And that would never do.

Previously Convicted Killer Convicted of Killing Young White Girl
I have read this but can't seem to find the evidence. Maybe I'm just being cynical, but aren't a jury much more likely to convict someone they find unappealing? It must have helped that in nearly every news report reference was made to his previous convictions for murdering young white women.
Make a Complaint
As part of my role, I make first contact with people who have called in to make a complaint about police. I am expected to establish what the complaint is, and try and deal with it before formally recording it. Some are not actually complaints, just a misunderstanding by the person who took the initial call. A number are made by people who believe they can avoid criminal prosecution by making allegations against the officer who dealt with them. Some are genuine, and these are recorded and submitted for further investigation.
Another group are those people who have a total inability to accept the views or opinions of others. Such people can never accept that they may have been in the wrong, and will argue against the most compelling of evidence. Such people spend their lives in battle with various authorities, neighbours and anyone else who challenges them. They are an expert in every field.
I find such people fascinating. Something within them causes them to genuinely believe they are in the right - any argument to the contrary is rebuffed, and police, courts and witnesses are all accused of error. It is not that these people are lying, they really do believe their own account of events. It is as though their brain has some kind of defensive mechanism that prevents feelings of being guilty or wrong. They are totally unable to empathise or see things for the point of view of others.
One of my officers is like this. She is one of the worst performing officers I have ever experienced, and has taken a significant portion of her career off sick. All challenges to her are rebuffed - she genuinely believes herself to be very good at her job, despite the lack of any evidence to that effect. All efforts to help her improve are met with contradictory arguments and allegations of bullying. She cannot accept that she is bad at her job, and believes that her needs must always come first. Unfortunately, it is incredibly hard to be sacked from the police for poor performance. She will see her career out in some pointless office job, making constant allegations requiring investigation to be found to be baseless. Much as the deluded members of the public who insist on making complaints to cover for their own failures. They all take up valuable time and tax payers money that could be better used elsewhere.

The cleats look great, and become really comfortable after you break them in some, but I've had problems with both pairs of uncaged cleats I had. Both pairs began to have the cleat separate from the shoe after a few summer practices. The shoes look great but I was hoping for some better quality. ... read more
Very good traction, extremely light, top of the line cleats, amazing value, a bit uncomfortable, but it pays off because of the way the shoe handles, the color is spot on, the metallic does not wear off, GREAT SHOE, better then C1Ns! ... read more
Just got shoes in today. They run pretty small and narrow. I am returning for a half size bigger to see if that helps. Not a fan of the super thin shoe laces either. Really have to focus to tie them. Good thing the shoes look super badass and are decently comfortable and super light ... read more
I really like the Adidas cleats. This is my third pair. This year I needed a wide football cleat and was surprised to find how few options there were. I really likes these shoes - they fit extremely well! ... read more
Flashy and has style.. I am a senior in highschool and I play a mix of tight end and slot receiver. Comfortable and light, feels like nothing is on. Yes a little break in time is needed they do hurt your feet for the first day or two. Besides that these cleats are great. and the price range for the quality is unbeatable. ... read more
Its performance. It's a good a cleat, it fit a little wide but it was fine with me. I would buy at least half a size smaller tho. It lasted me through my whole freshman football season and they're still in a good condition. They should put a little cushionong on the heel also. ... read more
I purchased these originally to train over the summer for football, but they look so good that I couldn't pack them away. I use them for lacrosse and they've been great. I had all black adidas zeros for this past football season and i loved them. I have used my new cleats for 4 games and 3 practices so far, and they just broke in. The first few times I wore them they were really stiff, which is to be expected, but it took a long time compared to other cleats I've had in the past. They are comfortable but I would suggest going half a size larger than you usually are. I've gotten so many compliments on them, and I love how they look. All in all, this is a great product. ... read more
These cleats are soo good and i love them. They fit your feet perfectly and you can make amazing cuts if you play a skill position. I had trouble deciding between these and the uncaged but i chose these over those. They should make a gold chrome version with the paradise kevlar. ... read more
Speechless. Very comfortable and very recommendable never felt more free running with these cleats. I recommend these if you are a skill positioned player a lot! I appreciate it adidas thank you! Ill make sure to come back and buy more football items! ... read more
The lightest cleat I've ever used. Fits like a glove. Stay true to size for the best feel. The construction is thinner. May not be long lasting. But has all the features you need in the lightest cleat on the market. ... read more
So the 5.0 is my favorite cleat so far I have ever. Its fit is perfect for my foot, and fits like a glove. The cushion is by far the best in the 5.0 than any other cleat in the adizero line. With a cushioned sock like the cushioned crew socks, you can survive long periods of time without your foot getting fatigue. Ventilation on the 5.0 is quite good, with the new tongue in the cleat the my feet can really truly breath. The traction is great. With the kevlar for extra strength, and different style studs to aid me in moving in different directions, pushing off, and sharp stoping. The quality and design are also very amazing. The quality of the materials and build of the cleat is amazing, my cleat kept clean and was very easy to wash even playing in mud and rough grass. My cleat also has no damage to the materials, I had no rips, the cleat did not stretch, and the frame and studs had no damage to them. The design was truly spectacular to me. Everything just popped and stood out on the cleat with the metallic hits. Overall I think the Adizero 5.0 gets a 5 out of 5 stars, the fit gets 4.8, the quality and design get a 5, the ventilation gets a 4.5, the traction gets a 5, and the cushion gets a 4.8. ... read more
I use these cleats for rugby and they're amazing. They give great support and have your feet on lockdown. Laces are the prefect length. They do not receive any discoloration on turf but stain easily in mud. Super easy to clean. I have the black ones and they are the best looking pair. 10/10 would cop another pair if I needed too. ... read more

Previous research has shown that breast-feeding offers many nutritional benefits to children including protection against infection and possibly a decreased risk of childhood cancer. We investigated the association between breast-feeding and Wilms tumor, a childhood kidney tumor.
We used data from a large case-control study in the United States and Canada. Cases were children under age 16 years who were diagnosed with Wilms tumor from 1999 to 2002 and were participating in the National Wilms Tumor Study. Controls were identified by random-digit dialing and were age and region matched to cases. Mothers of 501 cases and 480 controls provided information on breast-feeding by telephone interviews.
Breast-feeding was associated with a reduced risk of Wilms tumor [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 0.7; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.5–0.9]. Longer duration did not provide any additional reduction in risk. When stratified by maternal education, breast-feeding lowered risk among children whose mothers had less than a college education (OR = 0.6; 95% CI = 0.4–0.8) but not for mothers who had a college degree or more (OR = 1.1; 95% CI = 0.6–1.9).
The results of this study are suggestive of an association between breast-feeding and Wilms tumor, but further research is needed to confirm this relationship.

Are you one of the Americans who chips into the estimated $42 billion per year on weight loss products, "foods" and services — only to find that many of these don't even work? Then it is time to get your kitchen in order and look at the foods that will fuel your body instead instead of merely temporarily "satisfy" your cravings. There are many types of foods that help you win the battle of the bulge — here are my favorite top 10 foods that fight fat.
10) Nuts – Specifically Almonds and Walnuts. Right away you might be thinking, "David Rydelnik, are you crazy?! Almonds and walnuts are loaded with fat!" Ah, my friend, you do not know your fats! They are packed with fiber and contain unsaturated fat! Plus, they rank as a superfood because they regulate blood lipids and glucose to lower the risk of heart disease, and they help prevent diabetes! These nuts are plain and simple the right type of foods that fight fat, even though they contain HEALTHY fats, which are essential to your health.
9) Spinach – I used to love watching Popeye cartoons when I was a kid. To me, he was one of my heroes – picked on by Bluto constontaly. I was a shrimpy kid who was bullied a lot (heh, look at me now, baby!) and Popeye was someone I looked up to because when he ate that spinach, it was like he could do ANYTHING. I became addicted to spinach in 4th grade because of Popeye. I would consume baby spinach by the bag fulls after school. Spinach makes my top 10 foods that fight fat because of their ability to lower the risk of heart disease and stroke due to their rich folate content. It's antioxidant power can prevent damage to artery walls, especially in the places in your arteries that are most vulnerable to inflammation — the bends and curves of your arteries.
8) Olive Oil – the reason olive oil is listed on my top 10 foods that fight fat is because olive oil helps to control blood sugar levels, and here's how: it lowers insulin resistance which makes it helpful for people who are looking to control or prevent Type 2 Diabetes. Moreover, it helps your body effictively metabolize fat and sugar so that fat does not gather around your waistline.
7) Greek Yogurt – Calcium-rich Greek yogurt makes my list of foods that fight fat because the mineral calcium actually has been shown to fight fat, according to the director of the Nutrition Institute of Tennessee. He says that not getting enough calcium in your body raises the hormone calcitriol, which causes us to store fat. Meeting your daily needs of calcium will help you efficently burn fat.
6) Avocados – much attention is being given to avocados as of late since they have been shown to be rich in unsaturated fat, which can improve your overall cholesterol levels when used instead of saturated fat. Plus, not only are avocados one of the amazing foods that fight fat, but they help improve your feeling of fullness due to their fiber and unsaturated fat content. You will eat less and stay satiated longer.
5) Turkey – not just a great thanksgiving dinner, but also a superb source of lean protein, especially the amino acid leucine. Not only is it a building block of protein, it stimulates blood sugar and insulin levels to help you have greater weight loss. If gives your muscles a boost of glucose, which otherwise would be stored as fat. Instead, turkey makes my list of top 10 foods that fight fat because protein is an excelent way to lose weight with actual food!
4) Berries, especially blue berries –
3) Wild Salmon
2) Oatmeal
1) Lean, Grass Fed Beef

Can you spell tie?
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — After 19 rounds in a Missouri county's annual spelling bee over the weekend, only two of the 25 contestants who started the competition remained.
Several hours and 47 rounds later, an 11-year-old and her 13-year-old adversary had used up all of the available words, forcing organizers of the Jackson County Spelling Bee to temporarily halt the showdown.
"It was legendary," said Mary Olive Thompson, a library outreach manager and co-coordinator of the Saturday spelling bee.
Sophia Hoffman, a fifth-grader at Highland Park Elementary School in the Kansas City suburb of Lee's Summit, and Kush Sharma, a seventh-grader at Frontier School of Innovation in Kansas City, buzzed through the list of words provided by the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Then they ran through a list of about 20 additional words bee officials picked out of their Merriam-Webster's 11th Edition during the lunch break, The Kansas City Star reported.
But bee officials decided not to pull more words from the dictionary because they worried one speller might get a tough word and the other a relatively easy one, which wouldn't be fair.

Backwards Talking Girl Has Nothing on This Guy
Ok, I'm lying. This guy sucks....I think. Can't really get a feel for whetehr he's serious or not. You be the judge. Watch the vid.
Ok, I'm lying. This guy sucks....I think. Can't really get a feel for whetehr he's serious or not. You be the judge. Watch the vid.
Roger Clemens in Forty-Nine years old. He is actually only two months older than Jamie Moyer, the oldest current player in MLB. Is Fifty too old to play baseball? Probably not by today's standards. Especially if he juiced it up. Did a little Deca Durabolin or maybe a little HGH on the side. That would certianly help a Fifty year old attempting a comeback.
But Unfortunately, we all know that they Rocket is above that...right?
Trust me, growing up Pentecostal in the The Smoky Mountains of Eastern Tennessee, I got to hear LOTS of gospel singing. LOTS. There was good. There was bad. Just like with any kind of music.
Then there's...this.
I'm not really sure what's going on in this video. I would imemdiately dismiss this as some kind of internet fake to get a few cheap laughs. But after watching my share of first "first rounds" on American Idol, I fully realize there are some UBER dillusional people in this word, when it comes to hyping their own talents.
WARNING : You can't "un-see" or "un-hear" this. Once you've played this video, it will forever be lodged in your memory.
At some point in your life, if you own land, you'll likely need a tree cleared off of your property for one reason or another. But MAN, can that get costly.
Maybe you should retain the services of the guy in this video. It's bound to be cheaper and a whole lot more entertaining to watch.
Check it out.
This girl is hardcore. She's the new Axl Rose. Cute? Debatable. I'm not one of those people that think every kid is cute, just because they're kids. Is she Hardcore? Hell, yeah. She rocks. Check it out.
I don't know if it will sell any Volkswagons or not, but this commercial will definitely be one of the bigger hits of Super Bowl Sunday.
Ever laid awake in bed wondering what a random pack of dogs singing the Imperial March Song from Star Wars would sound like? Well...now you can die without feeling like the good lord jipped ya.
How it's done? I have no clue. Quit asking questions. Just enjoy the commercial.
Proof that you can literally make music with anything, especially anything with an electric current. Hats off to this guy for making it happen. Cool video.
Better think twice before you toss that next dwarf. Peter Dinklage, an actor and known dwarf, while accepting his Golden Globe award, brought another dwarf's tragedy to public attention.
He mentioned a guy by the name of Martin Henderson. Then told the collective viewers to "google him".
What we found was a tragic story of a "big person on midget assault". Martin Henderson has been left badly injured, after being picked up and thrown outside of a bar in Southwest England.
Ithink to prevent future attacks like this, we should all check out this "Dwarf Tossing" video to get a better idea of what we're dealing with here.
I'm fighting this battle with my five (soon to be six) year old daughter. I sent her into an overdramatic frenzy just a few days ago, attempting to pull out a tooth that wasn't as loose as I originally thought. Maybe something like this will help.
This musical ensemble ismaking quite the splash on youtube. They perform 15 famous TV theme songs in a two minute medley. Pretty cool. Check it out and see if you can name them all. You might have to watch and listen twice.
I had to do it. Pretty funn ystuff here. The people at www.funnyordie.com put together some of the funniest vids on the web. This video, starring Jim Carrey, Ryan Gosling, Eva Mendes & More, is no exception. Check it out.
WARNING : FOUL LANGUAGE. Not suitable for work or children.
Gotta love Chuck. I've missed him these last few months. This is my kinda cooking show. Check out the vid!

Cast Iron Chinese...
If you are like me and find yourself wanting really good Chinese food, yet lacking a wok (and maybe a take out menu), never fear! Just grab your trusty cast iron skillet or dutch oven. I canât lie, it doesnât work exactly like a wok, but it is a better-than-average substitute.
This recipe is fun and by using jarred black bean sauce, pretty easy. I will say to get everything ready before you start cooking. It helps during the quick cooking Chinese food usually requires. I think the French call it âmise en placeâ and through trial and error I have found this to be a MUST.

I am talking to a large school whose website currently consists of several hundred individually written HTML pages. I'm advising them to move over to a Content Management System.
Is WordPress appropriate to their needs? I am very happy indeed with my own WordPress website (still on 1.5.2) and I find WordPress very intuitive to understand and find one's way around. Plus the support and commitment to the future is superb.
But what if the school website isn't really a blog but eventually ends up with hundreds, or even thousands, of WordPress Pages? Would it perform as well as it does for a smaller site. Are there any big issues to consider?
I've looked at Drupal as an alternative but there's something rather weird about Drupal - not sure what, exactly. I'd like to advise this school to consider WordPress as one possible way into their future on the web - but I'm not 100% sure if this is the best advice.
As a minor example, one thing I've noticed is that in 1.5.2 there isn't a pager in admin Manage Pages as there is for Manage Posts. That would be an issue when there are hundreds of Pages.

Congratulations for this great plugin!
Would it be possible to use the standard Facebook Connect button (the wide blue one withe the Facebook logo on the left)? This is because, from a user's perspective, using the official Facebook rendering of the Connect button inpires more confidence. Users are most often reluctant to use Facebook Connect if they're not certain the site they're giving permissions to is trustworthy.
In short, would there be a way for me to call the fb:login, by changing something in the plugin code?

It reminds me of General Conference this year:
A woman needs to be told she's beautiful, feel appreciated etc
Then Thomas Monson added: in that respect men are very like women.
(I think that referred to the latter part, that is to feel appreciated
not to be told you are beautiful, guys).
Let's spread the love around; no one, female or male, likes to be a taken for granted drudge.

Wow! This was soooo delicious and easy to make! Thank you for posting : )
This was quite good, although we found it a little bland. Next time I would add a little more seasoning, maybe a few red pepper flakes to give it a little kick.Just made half a recipe and I used 2% milk with the non fat powdered milk and I used homemade turkey stock. It wasn't as creamy as I had hoped but wasn't dry either. thanks for posting a pleasant low fat casserole.

Receive Breaking News updates as they occur
Two jihadists who attacked a French church and killed a priest pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group, a video showed Wednesday, as investigators worked to identify the second assailant. The attack is the third in two weeks in France and Germany in which jihadists have pledged allegiance to the group, increasing jitters in Europe over young, often unstable men being lured by IS propaganda and calls to carry out attacks in their home countries. IS also claimed that Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, who killed 84 people when he ploughed a truck into a crowd in the French city of nice on July 14, was one of their "soldiers", however no direct link has been found.
Facebook on Wednesday reported a huge quarterly profit jump fueled by strong growth in revenues and its global user base, powering shares higher for the top social network. Net profit leapt 186 percent from a year ago to $2.05 billion in the second quarter, as Facebook blew past most analyst forecasts. With its global base of monthly active users growing to 1.7 billion, Facebook saw a 59 percent jump in total revenues to $6.4 billion, mostly from online advertising.

This is one of the cutest fabrics I have ever seen for a baby. The quality of fabric is nice and soft, I am looking forward to completing this blanket for my grandson. You will not be disappointed if you
order this fabric.
I made two baby blanket from the fleece I purchased. The blankets were very pretty except that the material was so wrinkled from being rolled on the end. I tryed to get the wrinkles out but I can not get them removed. For this reson I am disappoined in my purchase.
Great fabric for a baby blanket. Just wish it was carried in the fabric department of my local store so I could have bought it by the yard instead of a pre-cut length.
great material great service as expected and a speedy delivery for a low rate
Pleasantly surprised with the quality.

Hi all. :)
I'm not sure how realistic this is, but I thought it was worth asking everyone.
I've got an incoming sports scores RSS feed displaying on the bottom of one of my pages. I'm pulling it using this code:
<div id="scores" style="width: 1000px; height: 50px; margin-top: 10px;">
<?php include_once(ABSPATH.WPINC.'/rss.php');
wp_rss('http://www.sportsnetwork.com/aspdata/clients/sportsnetwork/NBArssscores.aspx', 6); ?>
I've managed to style it some with a few list-item CSS classes, but beyond that, I really have no control on how it displays. For example, the content comes in and displays like this:
Lakers vs. Heat
I'd prefer it to display like this:
Lakers vs.
I've tried shrinking the list-item sizes to force it below, but with the ever changing teams/data, there's no way to define that width correctly for every piece of data.
I guess my question is... what are my options when it comes to displaying incoming RSS feed data?
Any help would be great, thanks! :)

End war before more troops die
Published: Friday, December 1, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, December 1, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: In Vietnam At War, Lt. Gen. Phillip Davidson, head of Army intelligence during America's four years there, maintains we lost Vietnam because of wrong strategy: not enough American troops.
We missed the fact that Communist North Vietnam was fighting a revolution to the death. Same mistake the British made to lose the American Revolution.
We won every Vietnam battle, even the Tet offensive, regardless of contrary media reports, says Davidson. But, the main reasons we lost were carnage on nightly TV and Presidents John Kennedy's, Lyndon Johnson's and Richard Nixon's lies. They lost the hearts and minds of the American people. We evacuated, thank God.
Davidson says America and South Vietnam could have won militarily. At what cost? Another 58,148 young Americans dead, 211,451 wounded and another $346 billion?
Iraq. Revolution and civil war. Presidential lies from the start. Rumsfeld's low troop strength policy. Iraq's Prime Minister backing murdering Shiite militia. Kissinger, a Vietnam architect, "the Iraq war is unwinnable." Anybody want another 2,862 deaths of valiant Americans, 21,678 wounded and $505 billion more? If it takes marching on Washington to stop governmental folly again, let's go!
