Posted:May 02, 2016
Reviewer:Ms dairymaid 45 to 54 Female
Bought these for farm work and absolutely love them. The fit is good but the comfort is amazing. Have been wearing Justins made in USA that lasted for at least 3 years but needed a new pair. Love love this boot. Waterproof also is a great bonus.

Reviewer:Ms sara789 45 to 54 Female
I have regular twice daily barn chores and many trips in between and these boots are easy to slip on and off, but still fit great. Waterproof and clean up well. I'm buying another pair since they fit and work so well.

Comfortable, good-looking boots at a great price
Posted:January 14, 2016
Reviewer:Ms anota1 45 to 54 Female
I had nearly worn out my previous pair of Ariat short boots after ten years. I don't ride anymore, but have always loved the durability and style of Ariat's boots (tall and short). These are comfortable for all-day wear, fit well with sturdy socks, and look great. I also got them on sale, so that made them even better. I don't know that they'll last as long as my previous pair: the heels on these are rubber, and are molded with the sole; my previous pair had a stacked heel, so that I could just keep replacing the rubber on the heel when it wore down. Still, I look forward to wearing these for a good while.

Received as a Christmas present, very happy with the quality. A bit tight at first, but after a couple of wearings are very comfortable.
Hardy and pretty

Reviewer:Ms betsy49 18 Female
I bought these a month ago and have already proven them as hardy work boots, but they're also nice looking and I get a lot of compliments. Great investment!

Reviewer:Ms Brooklin 1 35 to 44 Female
I absolutely love these boots I bought them a month ago! And I wear them everyday they are that comfortable
fabulous winter boots!
Posted:December 02, 2015
Reviewer:Ms bunrat 55 Female
I bought these boots for this winter, and they are great! I live in Canada, in Manitoba, where the temps get down to -40 during the winter. I had a pair of Ariat Broussard boots, and wanted a second pair. These were comparable to the Broussards, which I found were great also. I have worn these boots in the barn, doing chores and to ride outside on the trails and have not needed extra socks to keep my feet warm! Fantastic find! Keep up the good work, Ariat!
Love my new boots...
Posted:July 15, 2015
I purchased these boots from Sheplers and love them. They came right on time and the price was great. My daughter has a pair, I tried them on and was sold!
The best pair of boots I've ever bought!
Posted:March 01, 2015
Reviewer:Ms Trudy22 25 to 34 Female
I live in Australia and started looking for boots outside Australia. The selection here isn't very good for women so I thought I'd see what else is out there. I was very excited when the boots fit perfectly and feel amazing! After wearing them for around a month I have no complaints, very supportive and light which helps when working in them all day.
Great Boot/shoe!
Posted:November 13, 2014
Reviewer:Ms Huntyr 55 Female
This is the third pair of these shoes I have bought over the years. I love the fit of them with the wide width. I wear shoes tough as I wear them every single day, no matter what we are doing. they take alot of abuse.
Love them
Posted:August 28, 2014
Reviewer:Ms Wolfbaby 55 Female
I thought that these shoes might be to heavy or to tight. I put them on as soon as I received them, and now I don't mind wearing them all day at work. They are very comfortable and stylish, especially with office clothes. These are a great choice if you have to have safety shoes, and work in an office. I often have to go out to the factory where these shoes are required, and I get a lot of compliments. Very Happy!
Wouldn't know they were steel toe!
Posted:January 23, 2014
Reviewer:Ms DurtyGurl 18 Female
Look great! Comfortable! Great price! Very happy with my boots and will always buy ariats!

3rd Jan 2013
The government has extended its start-up loans scheme to those aged up to 30 with an additional £30m to the funding pot.
The scheme offers entrepreneurs loans of around £2,500 to help them start businesses and had originally been aimed at 18 to 24-year-olds.
The increase takes the total funding available to £112m over the next three years and is expected to help boost the scheme, which has so far got off to a slow start.
The initiative was announced at the end of May but has since only lent out £1.5m to 460 companies. More than 3,000 entrepreneurs have applied for the loans so far, however if the target is to be met then almost 45,000 will need to take out the loans.

A man in a pickup truck peppered the North Charleston sky with eight gunshots before dawn one morning, the shell casings spilling onto Spruill Avenue.
By the numbers
Weapons testing at Charleston Co. Sheriff's Office1,648Yearly average of gun casings entered into the system31Average number of matches to other cases Source: CCSO
The man blasted a final round before he and two others in the truck sped off into the darkness.
The purpose of the gunman's display of firepower that morning in March 2007 baffled investigators at the time. But the incident later cracked another case wide open and put investigators on the trail of a killer who struck four months later and several miles away.
At the heart of the case was a tool used frequently by Lowcountry investigators. It's Charleston County's Integrated Ballistics Identification System, or IBIS, and it matches bullets and guns to crimes.
The system played a key role in solving a triple homicide that took place July 10, 2007, in Dorchester County.
Sheriff's investigators found a woman, Diane Grant, and her 20-year-old son, Jatavius DeVore, shot to death in their Archdale Forest apartment off Dorchester Road. Grant's 14-year-old daughter, DeAnna DeVore, was taken behind another building and shot multiple times, authorities said.
Investigators with the Dorchester County Sheriff's Office hit a brick wall as they investigated the killings — no weapon, no motive and no one who saw what happened.
"We had no witnesses," Maj. John Garrison said. "We were shaking the bushes."
On the ground, though, investigators found some .40-caliber shell casings. And with the aid of IBIS, those casings would help identify a gunman who had escaped detection that day.
Tool of the trade
IBIS is a national database that houses the unique marks, or so-called "fingerprints," that each gun leaves on a shell casing or bullet when a round is fired. Charleston County Sheriff's Office is one of two agencies in the state to house an IBIS lab where evidence from gun-related crimes is analyzed and stored for future comparison.
Boxes of bullets and guns are piled up at Charleston County's lab on Pinehaven Drive in North Charleston. Every day, crime-scene workers examine and test guns and slugs submitted by deputies and other area law enforcement agencies.
They test-fire the guns into a special tank and then place the casings under a microscope, where their identifying marks are photographed and recorded into a computer system connected to a worldwide database.
The sheriff's office started operating the system in 2003. About 100 agencies around the state now submit guns to the lab for testing.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, or ATF, paid for the equipment, which cost $250,000. ATF also funds the communication line for the system, costing $30,000 a year. The rest is paid for by Charleston County, including IBIS technician's salary and the cost of ammunition. There's been talk about having the outside agencies help pay for the service, but sheriff's officials said they've ruled that out.
"It's a public service. It affects everybody," said Senior Sgt. Paul McManigal, the forensic services supervisor for Charleston County Sheriff's Office.
Both Charleston and Dorchester County Sheriff's offices enter every gun that comes through their doors into the system, according to McManigal. That increases their chances of getting a "hit" to match the guns to other crimes.
When investigators are able to link more than one crime to the same gun, the chance of finding the person connected to that gun and those crimes increases, McManigal said.
Suspect revealed
That's what happened in 2007 as Dorchester County investigators worked to solve the triple-slaying at the Archdale apartment complex.
They sent .40-caliber casings found at the murder scene to Charleston County for testing. There, they found not one but two matches.
Those casings came from the same gun fired on Spruill Avenue on March 4, 2007. It had also been used on March 20, 2007, when a gunman shot at a vehicle and a building on Hunters Ridge Lane in North Charleston, Garrison said.
Investigators looked back at the case file for the Hunters Ridge Lane shooting and found witnesses had named a possible suspect, Garrison said. With that, they had a solid lead.
Investigators tracked down the man who had been named as a suspect and he told them the shooter was actually 25-year-old Anthony Sanders of North Charleston, authorities said. They began to wonder if he had also used the gun to kill Grant and her children, Garrison said.
Investigators began to hone in on Sanders. A check of his cellphone records placed him at the apartment complex on the day of the killings, Garrison said. Then, tests of DNA evidence collected from DeAnna DeVore's body came back as a close match to Sanders. He was arrested in August 2007, and was convicted of murder in March 2010.
Sanders agreed to forgo a jury trial and any appeal in exchange for the First Circuit Solicitor's Office's agreeing not to pursue the death penalty. He is now serving a life prison term.
The forensic tool that cracked that case is one used nationwide. Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey has been working with DNA, fingerprint and ballistics testimony since the mid-1980s and works closely with the National Forensic Science Technology Center.
IBIS has become an essential tool for law enforcement in Denver, according to Morrissey, who said they enter every gun they come across. "We get more hits than anywhere else in our region because we're extremely active in putting those cartridge casings in the system," he said.
Morrissey stressed that the system is only as good as agencies' participation. If you don't enter every shell casing you find, you have less chances of getting a match, he said.
All of the agencies within a reasonable driving range participate with Charleston County Sheriff's Office, even Myrtle Beach, McManigal said.
"I will continue to invite other agencies but I think we've plateaued over the last year," McManigal said. He hopes more agencies will realize the value of the service that's provided to them for free. "I am planning on reaching out to more and more agencies and encourage them to bring us their evidence. The more cases we enter, the more cases we can link together."

With a career spanning over 35 years, Ken Arconti is recognized as an accomplished guitarist, vocalist, songwriter, and educator. Residing in Santa Cruz, California since 1978, he has performed extensively in clubs, concert halls, and festivals throughout the Monterey and San Francisco Bay Areas. Ken has released three CDs on his own Jungle Beach Records label, and has taught guitar in Santa Cruz, Los Angeles, and the Santa Clara Valley.
Growing up in Los Angeles, California, Ken was exposed to music at an early age. He began playing the violin at age eight and performed for several years in his school's orchestra and chorus. With the arrival of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in the United States, Ken found himself drawn to the sound of the electric guitar. He began teaching himself to play at age eleven, and was soon performing in bands and absorbing the sounds of the '60s. Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, the soul of Stax and Motown, the blues of B.B. and Albert King, and jazz artists Miles Davis and Wes Montgomery were all influences.
Upon relocating to Santa Cruz, Ken began playing in clubs around the Bay Area. He has performed everything from country to jazz, to rock, to rhythm & blues. At home in almost any musical environment, Ken's ability to seamlessly blend styles is evident on his CD releases. His latest, "Catbird Seat" (2011), is an intimate recording of Ken's solo acoustic guitar playing and singing. The album features two Arconti originals plus renditions of songs selected from a list of diverse writers including Bob Dylan, Chester Burnett (aka Howlin' Wolf), and Stevie Wonder. "Catbird Seat," along with the no-holds-barred, searing blues of "As The Years Go Passing By" (2007), and the soulful sophistication of the jazz-tinged "Samsara Blues" (2003), provide a glimpse of Ken's tremendous versatility as a performer and composer.
As the driving force behind the Ken Arconti Band, Ken has performed at renowned festivals including the Monterey Jazz Festival and the Monterey Bay Blues Festival. He has shared the stage with the likes of John Mayall, Chris Cain, and Coco Montoya. The list of artists he has opened for reads like a "Who's Who" of the Blues, including Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, and Albert Collins. As a sideman, Ken has filled the guitar chair with legendary New Orleans master drummer, Zigaboo Modeliste (the Meters), soul rockin' tenor sax man, Terry Hanck, and rhythm & blues/soul singer John "Broadway" Tucker.
Always ready for a new musical adventure, Ken accepted an invitation from Maestro John Larry Granger to perform as a guest soloist in the Santa Cruz County Symphony's 2009 presentation of "The Colors of Music." The symphony was joined by the Santa Cruz Youth Symphony as Ken led them through some crowd pleasing electric blues. "There is nothing quite like having the massive sound of a symphony (or two) behind you! The concert not only provided me with the opportunity to compose for the symphony, but perform with the most unique, if not largest blues band ever. It was a very exciting and memorable experience," Ken recalls.
As an educator, Ken has been teaching guitar for 37 years and maintains a consistent clientele of 20-30 private guitar students on a weekly basis. He has taught in public schools as the Music Director and Guitar Instructor at Cypress Charter High School in Santa Cruz.
Ken has been active in the California Arts in Corrections Program since 1992. He has taught guitar, music theory, improvisation, and performance at Soledad and San Quentin State Prisons. He was the recipient of a prestigious Artist in Residence grant from the California Arts Council from 1999 to 2002, establishing a multi-cultural music program at Salinas Valley State Prison, which was featured in the 2002 VH1 documentary "Music Behind Bars."

What size clothes does she wear? My daughter is tiny and will be in newborn size clothes. I got an owl costume from babies r us that looks like it should fit her okay, even though it's a 3 month size. www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?p...
You could also do something like a peapod that is like a sleep sac and fits various size babies. LIke this www.amazon.com/Deluxe-Baby-Bunting-....
My other idea is to get this super cute outfit at Carters. I bought it for Macy with the hat, booties, socks etc. www.carters.com/carters/2-Piece-Leg... It comes in newborn size and up.
I was told by the NICU nurses that the moms go to Build-a-Bear and get costumes for their preemies for Halloween. If your baby is that small, maybe that would be a good option?
I second the build-a-bear - my daughter was 2 months actual last halloween, the witch costume from there fit her perfectly!

BG Medicine (BGM) will help Cordex Pharma with its Phase II trial of CDP-1050 in heart failure patients. The company will measure levels of Galectin-3 in patients enrolled in the study. Galectin-3 is a biomarker for cardiac remodeling associated with advanced stages of heart failure.
CDP-1050 targets the redox-nitric oxide imbalance, which is increasingly recognized as a major factor in poor myocardial contractile efficiency, Cordex points out.
The compound reportedly has a dual mechanism of action: It inhibits the production of excessive reactive oxygen radicals and restores nitric oxide to physiologic levels. The primary therapeutic target is the ryanodine receptor, the main ion channel in the heart that supplies the calcium necessary for the heart to contract.

Prehistoric Party Animal Cake
Additional Information
Step 1
Prepare Icing
We suggest that you tint all icings at one time while cake cools. Refrigerate tinted icings in covered containers until ready to use. Bring to room temperature for decorating.
Make 3 1/2 cups buttercream icing:
Tint 3 1/4 cups yellow (thin with 3 tablespoons light corn syrup)
Tint 1/4 cup violet
Step 2
Use tip 4 and violet icing to outline body, head, arms, tail and feet.
Step 3
Decorate in Order
Ice entire cake smooth with thinned yellow icing.
Step 4
Roll out marshmallows on surface sprinkled with cornstarch; cut into circle for white of eye and triangles for teeth. Position on cake.
Step 5
Roll out red, green, black spice drops on surface covered with granulated sugar and cut into circles. Position black for eye, red for nose and green for spots on body.
Step 6
Roll out purple spice drops on surface covered with granulated sugar and cut into triangles for spikes and nails. Position on cake.
Step 7
Baking Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F or temperature per recipe directions. Before first and after each use, we recommend hand washing pan in warm soapy water. Your cake will unmold easily, without sticking, when you prepare the pan properly.
Grease the inside of pan using a pastry brush and solid vegetable shortening (do not use butter, margarine or liquid vegetable oil). Spread the shortening so that all indentations are covered. Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons flour inside pan and shake so that flour covers all greased surfaces. Turn pan upside down and tap lightly to remove excess flour.
If any shiny spots remain, touch up with more shortening and flour to prevent cake from sticking. (You can use vegetable oil pan spray or Wilton Cake Release or Wilton Bake Easy? Non-Stick Spray, in place of solid shortening and flour).
Make one 2-layer cake mix according to package or recipe directions. Pour the cake batter into pan, and if necessary, spread the batter around with a spatula to fill all areas of the pan evenly. Be careful not to touch sides or bottom of pan.
Bake cake on middle rack of 350°F oven for 40-45 minutes or until cake tests done according to recipe directions.
Remove cake from oven and cool on cake rack for 10 minutes. While the cake is still in the pan, carefully slice off the raised center portion of the cake. This allows the cake to sit more level and helps prevent cracking.
To remove cake from pan, place cooling rack against cake and turn both cake rack and pan over. Lift pan off carefully. Cool cake at least one hour. Brush loose crumbs off cake.
To transfer cake to serving board, hold a cake board against cake and turn both cake and rack over. Lift off rack. Hold another board against bottom of cake and turn cake over. Be sure to hold cake, rack and board close together while turning to prevent cake from cracking.

Executives foresee continued health-cost shifting to employees
For the third year in a row, chief financial officers (CFOs) in the U.S. cited rising health care costs as their No. 1 concern, according to the Bank of America Merrill Lynch 2014 CFO Outlook survey.
Of the financial executives who participated in the annual survey of middle-market companies, nine out of 10 also said they expect their organization to increase or maintain the size of its workforce in 2014.
When asked about potential negative effects on the U.S. economy, CFOs most often named health care's impact on labor costs, with 67 percent ranking it as a significant concern, up from 62 percent in 2012. This was followed by worries about the effectiveness of the U.S. government (62 percent) and the U.S. budget deficit (57 percent). All three issues were the top concerns of CFOs in last year's survey.
Other major risks keeping financial leaders up at night are the U.S. regulatory environment (49 percent) and consumer confidence (42 percent).
Despite fears about the economic risks posed by health care reform, nearly three-fourths of CFOs said their company is completely or mostly ready to comply with the rules and regulations of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), with 28 percent claiming their organization is completely ready and 46 percent, mostly ready.
Offsetting Costs
More than half of financial executives (53 percent) said their company's labor costs will increase as the business complies with the ACA, and, to offset those costs, 77 percent plan to increase the amount employees must contribute toward their health care expenses.
Other health care data the survey revealed include:
Additional measures to offset higher labor costs include cutting spending in other areas of the business (75 percent), implementing wellness-promotion programs (71 percent), and raising prices on products and services (63 percent).
"We're not seeing seismic change in company health care plans at the middle-market level; we're basically seeing some variation on existing health care coverage, in one form or another," commented Alastair Borthwick, head of global commercial banking at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, during a Dec. 10, 2013, teleconference.
One area of high uncertainty, Borthwick noted, is the ACA's impact on the number of employees and their families who opt into a company's health coverage. "Respondents articulated that if it looks like their costs will go up more than expected [due to increased enrollment], then they will need to take additional steps" to offset this expense.
Among other notable findings in the 2014 CFO Outlook:
The 2014 CFO Outlook interviewed 751 CFOs, finance directors and other executives who were randomly selected from U.S. companies with annual revenues of between $25 million and $2 billion. Interviews were conducted from late September to early November 2013.

Radiofrequency ablation is a procedure carried out to remove diseased tissue or a tumour (a lump) from the body. It is one type of what is called tumour ablation (or removal).
Tumour ablation is where a needle is placed directly into a tumour so that a chemical (usually alcohol or acetic acid) or thermal (heat or ice) treatment can be applied to destroy or reduce the tumour. Although tumour ablation has been used for a long time, only in the last 15 years has it been increasingly used to treat tumours. This is due to increasing technologies both in ablation and in imaging guidance. Imaging guidance is the use of X-rays, computerised tomography (CT), ultrasound (US) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to allow accurate positioning of the ablation needle within the tumour or tumours.
Radiofrequency ablation is the most commonly carried out tumour ablation procedure. Radiofrequency uses an electric current that moves back and forth to create heat within the tumour. A needle is used to produce heat within the tumour or tumours to completely or significantly destroy the tumour or tumours. This is usually carried out under image guidance to ensure the needle is placed correctly within the tumour or tumours.
Tumours of the liver, kidney, lung or bone that are benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) are being increasingly treated with radiofrequency ablation. Although many of these tumours can be completely treated with radiofrequency ablation, surgery remains at this time the best and most complete treatment. Radiofrequency ablation is used when surgery is thought to be too risky (patient fitness or location and number of tumours) or for palliation (improving quality of life or length of life, but not completely destroying the tumour). Occasionally, radiofrequency ablation may be the best treatment due to it being less invasive than surgery, such as in some benign tumours of the bone.
The technology of tumour ablation and radiofrequency ablation is continuing to grow and it is likely that these technologies will continue to improve over the next few decades.
The need for having a procedure to destroy or reduce a tumour is usually assessed using ultrasound, CT scan or MRI, and sometimes all three. These imaging tests will be used to determine the size, location and other features of the tumour as a guide for planning the procedure. The test will also be used in future assessment of the response to treatment. Blood tests will also be carried out to ensure there are no medical reasons why radiofrequency ablation should not be used and the test results will be used to assess tumour markers (features or signs). Fasting (no food or fluid) is usually required for a few hours before the procedure.
You will generally be admitted to hospital or to a day procedure centre on the day of the procedure if you are not already in hospital. Radiofrequency ablation can be carried out under general anaesthetic, where you will be asleep and monitored by an anaesthetist (specialist doctor). Alternatively, you may be awake, but sedation medication will be given to ensure you are drowsy and relaxed.
Monitored by the anaesthetist, you will be taken to the medical imaging or radiology department of the hospital where you are having the procedure.
The area where the needle electrode will be inserted is cleaned with antiseptic solution and covered with a surgical drape. Grounding pads are laid on the skin, usually on both thighs, so that the electrical current can be safely applied while the radiofrequency ablation is carried out. Then the area will be numbed with a local anaesthetic if the procedure is carried out without general anaesthetic. A very small cut is made in the skin after it is numb and then the radiofrequency ablation needle electrode is inserted into the tumour being treated using imaging guidance, usually ultrasound, sometimes CT scanning, and images or pictures are shown on a screen. Once the electrode is in place, the electrical current is applied. Heat may be felt during the procedure. At the end of the procedure, the electrode will be removed and pressure will be applied to the site where the needle was inserted, to stop any bleeding. The opening in the skin is covered with a dressing. No stitches are required.
Each radiofrequency ablation session takes approximately 15–30 minutes. For larger cancers, it may be necessary to carry out multiple ablations by repositioning the needle electrode into different parts of the tumour to ensure no cancer tissue is left behind. The entire procedure is usually completed within 1–3 hours.
A radiologist (specialist doctor) will use ultrasound or CT images to guide the insertion of the needle electrode through the skin and into the tumour or tumours being treated. A radiologist is a doctor who has specialised in medical imaging and image-guided treatments. Rarely, the procedure will be carried out during an operation by a surgeon.
Radiofrequency ablation is usually carried out within a hospital by a radiologist. You may go home on the same day or stay for one night.
The cells in the tumour will die immediately after the radiofrequency ablation. The exact extent of cells killed during the procedure may be obscured by inflammation, a natural body reaction to the procedure. The inflammation will gradually decrease in 1 or 2 weeks. A CT scan, or rarely an MRI scan, will be taken within 1 month after your treatment to assess the results of the procedure.
It is important to realise that a period of follow up is required after radiofrequency ablation. It often takes a year (sometimes longer) to be certain that the tumour is treated. This requires both imaging and visits to your specialist doctor.

A Decade of Trial
The wounded warriors of the 9/11 generation.
I heard the thump as I was saying over the phone to John Gibson at the National Security Council that it couldn't be an accident, since now a second plane had hit the World Trade Center. Putting down the phone, I walked over to the window and looked out on Route 110, which runs in front of the Pentagon. Construction workers, their faces reflecting fear, even terror, were running across the major highway like it was a country road. They had seen the smoke pouring out from around the corner where Flight 77 had hit the building.
"John, I'll have to call you back," I said when I got back to the phone. "I think we just got hit."
"Move it to the right" said the soldier when another bent over to adjust the pedal of his wheelchair. When he saw who was helping him—a three-star general—he gulped. "Uh, sorry, sir, for not saying 'sir.'" "I'm the one who should be calling you 'sir,'" replied the general as he wheeled the young veteran to the assembly point for the other wounded.
The soldiers were there for the first of many tours of the Pentagon organized for the wounded and their families. For many this was their first time outside the rooms and hallways of Walter Reed hospital since their injuries, so they had trouble handling what came next.
As they came around a corner the hallway erupted with thousands of cheering, flag-waving Department of Defense employees. Many of those in the parade of crutches and wheelchairs, including family members, were overcome as they moved along. Later, one wife, sounding almost angry through uncontrolled tears, told the Pentagon organizer, "You should have warned us—you should have warned us."
"Sir, could I ask you a question?" I knew what was coming—as the wounded toured the press briefing room it was always the same question for the older guy in the suit whom they thought might have some authority. No matter how many limbs were missing or how serious the head wound, they asked: "Sir is there any way you could help me get back to my unit?"
Guests of honor at a Washington think-tank dinner, the two enlisted men in wheelchairs and the sergeant with a cane looked uneasy as they stood unnoticed at the edge of the huge crowded ballroom. As event planners with clipboards and bugs in their ears rushed by, I maneuvered through the crowd and went up to them. They looked up at me as I summoned words that have inspired our fighting forces down the years: "Gentlemen, would you like to follow me to the bar?"
"Yes sir, thank you sir" was the enthusiastic response. The crowd parted magically on our way to two beers and a gin. Later the same crowd oohed and ahhed when they heard of the soldiers' battlefield exploits.
After the dinner, when the van arrived for the trip back to Walter Reed, I would see how good they were at helping fold up their wheelchairs, put them in the back, and then hop along toward their seats with a hand against the side of van. All the while thanking me for the drinks.
Hard to hear and hard to watch. The hero as grateful hopper. Like the wife at the Pentagon parade, my reaction was emotional and I thought somebody should have warned me.
Yes, as his name tag showed, the newly named aide to Joint Chiefs Chairman Peter Pace was the son of another well-known general. In answer to my questions he added that he was also a West Point graduate, and he listed the several stateside locations where he had been stationed. With Gen. Pace and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld just ahead of us as we headed toward the press briefing room, I thought that this young staff officer was going to have trouble gaining the respect of fellow officers who had seen combat. As we turned the corner, though, he said "I was in Iraq too sir." And as I saw his empty uniform sleeve, he added "but I got hurt there."
People fled the funeral service for Navy Seal Jonas B. Kelsall last month as the building shook. Reassurance during an earthquake, though, is a church full of Navy Seals. The squadron commander kept right on giving his eulogy and Kelsall's comrades didn't budge. Victoria Jennings Kelsall, herself a former Marine with a tour in Iraq, added to the intrepidity by speaking nearly unfalteringly of her hero-husband and his belief in America's mission.
Outside, retired Col. Oliver North said to former Marine Commandant P.X. Kelly, both of them friends of Victoria's father, Jerry Jennings, a Vietnam veteran and Reagan-Bush administration official: "Aren't these kids amazing?"
Mr. Kelly readily agreed. It's the reason why, he explained, when he was recovering from an operation recently at Bethesda Naval Hospital, he felt compelled to get himself moved "off the deck with the admirals" and onto the casualties' floor.
As the door to the Oval Office opened a few days before he left office, George W. Bush surprised me by starting right in about how little had changed since I had been there in the Reagan years and, see, the desk was even the same as Reagan's. When he started thanking me for my service to country, I cut him off and said I wasn't going to listen to that from someone who had carried his burdens. I said his presidency had a real claim on greatness and that history would be kind to him. Mr. Bush shook his head: "Well, not in my lifetime." I replied: "In two or three years, Mr. President. Wait and see."
I was right about the timing. Clare Boothe Luce once observed that presidents get a summary line from history—"He saved the union" or "He won the Cold War." Mr. Bush's line may well be "He waged the war on terror and kept America safe." Which is a proud one, and one that gives meaning to the sacrifices of the fallen and the wounded.
Mr. Dolan, who served as chief speechwriter for eight years during the Reagan administration, was special adviser in the offices of secretary of state and secretary of defense during the George W. Bush administration.

Now Grant is playing for one of the most storied college football teams in the nation, Alabama's Crimson Tide.
Terry Grant has the tools to succeed and become a star, but it's not going to be easy. There will be bumps in the road, but by looking at Terry's past it looks as if he'll just juke right by them and shake off another tackle.
Before coming to the Capstone, Grant had scholarship offers from many other top schools, but in the end he chose Alabama.
"Alabama wasn't too far away from home, and it wasn't too close," Grant said. "It was kind of like the perfect place to be."
During last season's Vanderbilt football game, Grant suffered a shoulder injury that required surgery. Before the injury, Grant had played in only three games, mainly returning kick-offs and making two rushes in the Louisiana-Monroe game.
However, NCAA rules state that, "A player may receive a medical hardship (redshirt) if the season-ending injury occurs in the first half of the season, and he has not participated in more than 20 percent of contests."
Alabama played 12 games in 2006, and 20 percent of 12 games is two and 4/10ths of a game. Since there hasn't been a fourth of a game played in college yet, the number of games is rounded up to three. This being the case, Grant was eligible to apply for a medical redshirt.
Now entering the 2007 season as a redshirt freshman with four years of eligibility left to show Crimson Tide fans and NFL scouts just how good this little guy from Lumberton, (Miss.) really is.
Fast forward to last Saturday, and you'll see an eager young man out there on the gridiron, rushing past Catamounts and making it look easy.
When asked about Grant, tight end Nick Walker responded, "I feel like he's going to break a lot of records up here. It's just amazing the things he can do with the ball. His quickness and his speed--it's just unbelievable. I see a little bit of Barry Sanders in him."
Those are strong words for a guy who has only taken a significant amount of snaps in just one game thus far, even though those snaps amounted to 134 rushing yards and three touchdowns.
Coach Saban on Wednesday addressed whether or not Grant might take part in some positions on special teams.
"We want him to be consistently healthy and consistently good, and doing the things he can do to contribute to our offense because he is a playmaker. We feel like we have enough players in other places, that they deserve an opportunity as well whether its kick-off return or punt return," Saban said.
When not juking and spinning past defenders, Grant is hitting the books for class. In addition to a football star in high school, and averaging an unfathomable 11 yards per carry his senior year, Grant was a member of the National Honor Society and graduated from Lumberton with honors.
He did the work on and off the field and that separates him from a lot of the players out there. His high school coach Teddy Dyess commented, "Academics did not come easy for him, but he set a goal to separate himself. He busted his butt as far as tutoring and staying after school."
Grant plans to major in criminal justice here at the University. If his rushing ability isn't enough to convince you of just how special this young man is, then his grades will.
"He a quiet person off the field," says Nick Walker.
He sure isn't keeping Tuscaloosa quiet though. If he stays healthy he definitely has a shot at breaking some of those records set by Kenneth Darby and others. With Coach Saban here, the recruits keep coming in and the offensive line is looking good, especially after Tyler Love joins next year.
The future is bright for Terry Grant. And whether its criminal justice or in the NFL, he will be a joy to watch. Just sit back and enjoy the next four years, they could be some of the best since the Gene Stallings era, and Terry Grant plans to be an integral part of it.

Osbourne Courting Dance Fans On New CD
The new-wave-hued track ascends 12 positions on Billboard's Hot Dance Radio Airplay chart to No. 13 this week.Although Kelly Osbourne's sophomore album, doesn't arrive until June 7 via Sanctuary, "Sleeping in the Nothing" is already off to a good start thanks to the single "One Word." The new-wave-hued track ascends 12 positions on Billboard's Hot Dance Radio Airplay chart to No. 13 this week.
Such news explains why the daughter of Ozzy and Sharon was omnipresent in Miami Beach during the recent Winter Music Conference and M3 Summit, including presenting an award at the WMC's International Dance Music Awards.
"I'm here because I've decided to change direction in my music," Osbourne told Billboard backstage at the awards ceremony. "I came to Miami to find out everything I didn't already know about dance music."
So what prompted the new sound? Without missing a beat, Osbourne replied, "Take a really good look at what girls my age are doing musically. They're all doing the same sh*t. I hate being the same. So, I had to do something different -- something that I was passionate about."
Though she has turned to dance music, Osbourne noted that "it's still very much me -- the album has an edge. And I'm excited."

PORTLAND, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The cities of Portland and South Portland are banking on solar power, as they look to reduce their reliance on fossil fuel for electricity.
City councils in both communities voted last night to move forward with Revision Energy to build solar facilities at their now closed landfills.
The Portland project will be the largest municipal solar plant in the state.
Maine-based ReVision Energy will be placing 3-thousand solar panels at the Ocean Avenue landfill. They will help provide power for City of Portland buildings, producing enough electricity to give city government about 3 ½ percent of its annual consumption. That's enough to power both City Hall and Merrill Auditorium on an annual basis. It's part of the city's goal to become more sustainable.
"Things that are going to preserve the environment, yet we try to make operations more efficient and cost effective in the city", said Portland Sustainability Coordinator Troy Moon.
ReVision Energy co-founder Fortunat Mueller says closed landfills are an ideal spot for these types of projects. He expects to be doing more of them in the future.
"Largely useless pieces of land, you can't do any development there. They're a great match for solar and a lot of municipalities in Maine have closed, capped landfills", he said.
The city is expected to see energy savings of around $3-million over the life of the plant. It's putting in money up front, $150,000. But after 6-years it has the option of buying the plant, which is when the savings will start.
