Mumford & Sons wins album of the year at Grammys
British folk band Mumford & Sons pulled off a surprise victory at the 55th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday night, winning album of the year away from fellow nominees the Black Keys, and fun., who were dominating the night.
Before the nominations were announced last year, Mumford was an early favorite to win music's biggest prize. Its sophomore album, "Babel," had the second-highest week of sales last year according to Billboard, and the band's sweeping, banjo-strumming style paved the way for a lucrative folk renaissance, inspiring other acts like the Lumineers and Phillip Phillips, who've also had big sales successes. »Read Full Article(2)

On Thursday, Brett Favre visited Dr. James Andrews to see how his ankle is progressing, and it is likely that this diagnosis will dictate whether the ageless wonder finally hangs it up.
If Favre is truly done, then the Vikings will turn to Tarvaris Jackson to lead their offense into the 2010 campaign. Most think that this spells doom for the Vikings, and see a Wild Card berth and an early exit from the playoffs as their eventual fate.
It's the widely held belief that Jackson doesn't have what it takes to be a starter in the NFL, and would be the weak link on an otherwise good offense.
This is completely disrespectful to a man who has progressed consistently ever since his career began in 2006, and has shown that he is perfectly capable of leading a Super Bowl-caliber offense.

Will Carlos Santana Play Third Base?
Aaron Gleeman of NBC Sports Hardball Talk says that last week, Carlos Santana told ESPN that he's getting ready to play third base on a regular basis this season.
However, Paul Hoynes of the Cleveland Plain Dealer talked to Indians general manager Chris Antonetti about it and he wasn't so definitive.
We have not made a decision at third base. That?s what spring training is for. But Carlos has gotten a tremendous head start due to the work he?s put in this offseason. It started with him working at our complex in the Dominican Republic with our coaches. And it transitioned into winter ball.
I think Carlos has approached it that he wants to work as hard as he can to be the best third baseman he can be. ? We feel good about our options there. We continue to believe in Lonnie Chisenhall and his potential. And Carlos can only enhance his impact on the team and our goal of becoming a better ball club.

While has we all know the rockets are not going to be in the playoffs this year.
But the Rockets future is looks VERY bright .....I'm going to write a little bit on each player sooo maybe if you don't like one or you just don't think hes good or maybe u just don't think hes inpronted to the team maybe it will give you a different point of veiw but i want be doing ALL of the players but the more importent ones or I'll stop when i get tired of looking at a computure screen..lol.......... but first heres something on the houston rockets team.
The Rockets too say the least have gone through a rough couple years....... thinking that yao and t-mac were going to bring a title to Houston everything was going great untell either tmac got injuryed then yao got injured and that want back and fourth sooooo now were starting over again and thats why this year has been more of a training year then a season for the Rockets...but even though it was going to be a training year and don't get me wrong it was but the rockets fight and thats why they almost made it into the playoffs if kyle lowery and Trevor Ariza didn't get injured then we would have been in a much better pozition to make a push for the playoffs........but finely the Rockets did get them back and it was going really good but in two games 4 players got injured then David Anderson gets injured as well has soon as they want down rocket fans all over the world knew that the playoffs would not happen this year..
But now next year looks even better. by training rookies and giving players playing time that they usaully would have not and all that it gives them more exspearence for when they actaully have a allstar soo then the Rockets well have a better bench then they would have if all there allstars weren't tradded or/and got injured.

Skip to comments.A Retailer Discovers China's New 'It' Girl: Grandpa - Retired Farmer Becomes Fashion Sensation
Posted on 01/09/2013 8:09:31 PM PST by a fool in paradise
BEIJINGWhile other 72-year-old Chinese men spend their days practicing tai chi and playing mah-jongg, Liu Qianping is enjoying a twilight career modeling clothes. Women's clothes.
At a fall fashion shoot, the 5-foot-8 former rice farmer from central Hunan vamped for the camera in lacy green tights and white fur-lined pink dresses. Online and on TV, he has become a meme, with his image circulated by millions on Chinese social media sites and talk shows.
He owes his star turn to his granddaughter, Lu Ting, a clothier who struggled for months to find a model who could boost her online store without breaking the bank. "He's just so slender," Ms. Lu says of her 110-pound grandfather. She notes that he looks great in crimson dresses and credits him for more than quadrupling her sales in recent weeks.
...The waif of a man, who goes about in a three-piece suit and a bow-tie when he isn't clad in pink satin, is among a cadre of Chinese seniors who are all too familiar with cultural upheaval. Their lives have been marked by unimaginable changefrom surviving famine to the advent of fast food. Along the way, many have adopted a devil-may-care approach that flies in the face of stereotypes about conservative Asian elders...

- Call me 'Lola'
you got to be kidding me... a 72 year man modelling women's clothes....
I hate the internet.
This is today's Wall Street Journal. Encouraging older Americans to give up memories of how things were and embrace a devil may care attitude.
Or maybe the Devil doesn't care. Obama sure doesn't care about outcomes.
Run guns to Mexico? Crack down on American legal gun sales and shield the federal officials from international prosecution.
"This is todays Wall Street Journal. Encouraging older Americans to give up memories of how things were"
Good luck with that - I don't know of alot older Americans who aren't wishing for things they way they were.
You gotta admit...
He has got a LOT more curves than some of those alien things that madison avenue calls "models" that look like they just walked off of the mothership....
I got two words for you:
He survived Mao's cultural revolution. Pretty sure this is nothing compared to that.
He's just happy to help his grandaughter make a few bucks with her online store.
Oh good. Wouldn't want you to compromise your dignity.
Oh good. Wouldn't want you to compromise your dignity.
no kidding. everything is devolving into chaos. the other side likes it becaus they think they'l be able to make order out of it. they will just make the ultimate FAIL in the history of mankind.
Would you hurry up, already, and blow that thing Gabe?
My guess would be retired.
Looking for the brain bleach....
Rutt-Roh! ROFLOL!!!
you got to be kidding me... a 72 year man modelling womens clothes....
I love the internet.
He can keep 'It'.
Is that a photo from their vacation in South Africa where Winnie The Mandela herself was a part of the welcoming committee?
The Chinamen will beat us in imagination, creativity and tolerance. But then, that's not hard to do - an upper class highly educated onetime terrorist named Bill Ayers beat us all by placing an unknown half-witted unsympathetic Communist in the White House.
Hmmm? You don't feel like you and your life are better after you get off the interwebs?
"You dont feel like you and your life are better after you get off the interwebs?"
I think I've wasted those 10secs in reading an article about a 72 year old model that I can never get back.
The title should have served as its own warning label...
"The title should have served as its own warning label..."
I blame myself...
I have issues with my mouse... don't say it.
I won't...

After using your splendid refurbished Kidderminster Store which I found to be refurbished to a very high standard making shopping there a pleasure.
I found the Staff to be well informed and highly trained in their departments. I purchased a tower Computer, a printer, a Nano, leads and various other. I found their advice was excellent as being of a pensionable age I find the technology bewildering on occasions. I also bought three hands free telephone system and the on every occasion I found the Assistants very helpful. So all that said I have purchased some shares in your company and I am hoping for a prosperous New Year as I am convinced you are doing a really professional job.

A tech startup known as Knewton is among many such companies that monitor the mouse clicks, keystrokes and "split-second hesitation[s]" of 4 million children across the country, Politico reports.
The expressed goal is identifying learning problems early and helping students overcome them, but the development of big data has put heaps of private information about children into the hands of private companies that can profit from mining, sharing and selling it.

Minnesota Lynx Coach, Reeve Visits Campus
Head coach of the Minnesota Lynx, Cheryl Reeve, made a visit to St. Cloud State University on Wednesday afternoon as part of the Women's Center weekly series, Women on Wednesday. Reeve coached the Minnesota Lynx to their first ever National Championship in the 2011 season and back to the final round again during the 2012 campaign.
Reeve was on hand to share her story as a celebration of National Girls and Women in Sports Day and to discuss the importance of Title IX. It's program that's existed for 40 years and gives women an equal opportunity to participate in athletic activities. Reeve shared her gratitude for the program and encouraged everyone to remember that we (women) haven't always had these types of opportunities. She said it's "important to continue to shine this light" to ensure that it doesn't disappear or go away.
Reeve also shared her journey and involvement with athletics at many levels; from playing shortstop on the boy's baseball team as a child to her tenure at La Salle playing college basketball. She spoke of her personal goals to always be a champion no matter what the task and shared her Reeve's Peeves to a champion. The Peeves are four words that are essential to a champion; preparation, passion, perseverance and principle.
KVSC Sports Director, Gina Carlson caught up with the Director of the Women's Center, Jane Olsen, after the event. Olsen was delighted with the event turnout and large array of people in attendance, "It was by far our largest crowd of the semester so far." Olsen remarked with a large smile.

'Hear O You Deaf and Look O You Blind!'
We live a short walk from the Ramada Hotel in Jerusalem. Over the holidays, the hotel was packed with Diaspora Jews from all over the world, but now that the holidays are over, the lobby is pretty deserted. I can't understand how a self-respecting Jew can leave the Land of Israel and go back to the Lilliputian Jewish life of Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto, Melbourne, or Brooklyn after being in the Land of our Forefathers.
It's like a Jewish husband abandoning his Jewish wife for a gentile whore. However kosher his ghetto in Chicago,Toronto, or Brooklyn may seem, it's a ghetto all the same, in a foreign gentile land, surrounded by a foreign gentile culture, with foreign gentile values, and foreign gentile holidays, and a foreign gentile language, and a foreign gentile identity.
Some readers accuse me of harping on the mitzvah of living in Israel, but it isn't me – it's the Torah, as it says, "I am the Lord, your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God" (Vayikra, 25:38).
Rashi explains the meaning of "to be your God," stating: "For whoever resides in the Land of Israel, I am a God to him; and whoever leaves it is like one who worships idols."
This emphatic teaching is also stated in the Talmud. It applies not only to Jews who leave the Land of Israel, but also to Jews who make the Diaspora their home, as it says:
In all generations, a Jew should live in the Land of Israel, even in a city where the majority of inhabitants are idol worshipers, and not live in the Diaspora, even in a city where the majority of residents are Jews, for everyone who lives in the Land of Israel is like someone who has a God, and everyone who lives in the Diaspora is like someone who has no God, as it says, 'I am the Lord, your God, who took you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, to be your God,' for someone who resides in the Diaspora is like someone who worships idols (Ketubot 110B).
I'm sorry if this hurts your feelings, but this is what it says in the Torah. This is what Rashi says. This is what the Talmud states.
This is the halacha as recorded by the Rambam: A Jew is allowed to temporarily leave the Land of Israel for business, or to learn Torah, or to get married, and then he must return, but to dwell there is forbidden (Rambam, Laws of Kings and Their Wars, 5:12).
That's right – a Jew is supposed to live in Israel even in a city where the majority of residents are idol worshipers, and not live in Chicago, Lakewood, Monsey, Brooklyn, or Timbuktu, even if the majority of residents are Jews. This means that a Jew is supposed to live in Israel even if the Land is filled with self-hating leftists, Haredim who spit at women, corrupt politicians, and impolite taxi drivers. The commandment to live in Israel is not dependent on whether a Jew from Chicago likes the weather in the Holy Land or finds it too hot in the summer for his tastes.
The Haftorah we read on Shabbat teaches that Hashem gives a soul to the Jewish People who live in the Land of Israel "and a spirit to those who walk therein" (Isaiah, 42:5). The Nation of Israel only has national vitality in the Land of Israel. Everywhere else, we are a minority in someone else's land. We can excel as individual comedians, and film directors, and Facebook wizards, and businessmen, but we can't be our own JEWISH NATION – not in Chicago, or Lakewood, or Brooklyn. How can a Jew prefer gentile countries over his own Jewish Land?
The Prophet Isaiah cries out: "Hear O you deaf, and look O you blind that you may see! For who has been so blind as My servant, so deaf as My messenger?"
Jews visit Israel for the holidays as if it is some Jewish Disney World, and then go back to their gentile lovers and the embrace of foreign gentile lands, gentile World Series, and gentile presidential elections.
"Much did you see, but you did not observe it," Isaiah rebukes. "Ears were opened for him and he did not hear!" (42:18-20).
The Master of the World has miraculously returned us to our cherished homeland after an exile of 2000 years. What are Diaspora Jews waiting for? Why do they prefer gentile lands over our own? Why do they cling to foreign identities and raise their children to believe that they are Americans, and Canadians, and Frenchmen?
For an assimilated Jew who has no connection to his Jewishness, or to Israel, OK, I realize that convincing him to come on aliyah is like talking to the deaf. But for a reader of The Jewish Press who goes to shul and prays to come home toIsrael three times every day, what is he waiting for? That everything be 100% to his liking?
It's truly exasperating!
But there's comfort in the end. Even if they don't come of their own free choosing, Hashem will drag them here by their peyes if need be, as the Prophet assures:
From the east I will bring your descendants and from the west I will gather you. I will say to the north, Give up! And to the south, Keep not back! Bring My sons home from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth… to bring forth the People who is blind though they have eyes, and who is deaf though they have ears (Isaiah, 43:5-8).
So my beloved brothers and sisters from Chicago, and Lakewood, and Brooklyn, and Facebookland – if you really want to affect change in Israel, and transform it into the place of your dreams, then come and help with the work.
We're waiting.Tzvi Fishman

Republican and Democratic Plans for Medicare and Medicaid Misguided: Push for Privatization will Accelerate Costs and Deaths
Leadership in Washington recognizes the damage our soaring health care spending is doing to our entire economy. Although their rhetoric differs, recent budget proposals from both Republicans and Democrats mistakenly place the blame on Medicare and Medicaid. Cuts to and privatization of these important public insurances will place us on a dangerous path that will leave health care costs soaring and more patients unable to afford necessary care.
Medicare and Medicaid must be left out of the discussion entirely until leadership has the courage to address the real reasons why our health care costs are rising, the toxic environment created by investor owned insurances and the profit-driven health care industry.
Vermont Gets Closer to Feds Blocking Its Single-Payer Health Coverage

Talking Revolution: The New Elderly Generation can provide the Spark for an American Rising
By Dave Lindorff
I am 62 and have just reached the age where I could apply for Social Security retirement benefits. Of course, I'd be crazy to do that and collect some $700 a month for the rest of my life, when I could keep working and wait until I'm 70 and get $2000 a month.
But the point is, I've arrived. I'm a "senior." And now I'm paying a lot more attention to what the Right and its paymaster, the corporate lobby, are trying to do, not just to my retirement plan (which is Social Security. period), but also to Medicare, the program upon which my medical care will depend once my wife decides to retire from her university job.
The Battle Over PTSD

There's a major struggle for meaning going on in America now that centers on war trauma among returning soldiers and veterans of our wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and, now, Libya.

Ryan turns knife on Medicare, Medicaid
Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the Republican chairman of the U.S. House Budget Committee, unveiled two proposals this week which if enacted would constitute a mortal threat to our nation's health – particularly to the health of our seniors and our most vulnerable populations.
The first proposal, Senate Joint Resolution 10, would amend the Constitution by imposing rigid and arbitrary restraints on federal spending. The second, his fiscal year 2012 federal budget resolution (misleadingly and eerily called "The Path to Prosperity"), would essentially kill the Medicare program and gut Medicaid, among its other nasty effects.
Both proposals should be emphatically rejected.

Petition to HELP JAPAN Shut Down Hamaoka & Tokai Nuclear Power
Dear Friends,
Yumi Kikuchi & Gen Morita are our good friends who live in Japan. They are anti-war & anti-nuclear activists who have done so much good work, both in Japan & internationally on these issues. Yumi & Gen translated "ADDICTED To WAR" into Japanese and were responsible for over 70,000 copies being sold in Japan. They also put Japanese subtitles on my film "What I've Learned About U. S. Foreign Policy" and screened it at the first ever Tokyo Peace Film Festival, which they organized. I could go on & on listing many of the things they have done to promote Peace in the world. Below is what they are asking us to do to help them now.

Vt. House passes single-payer health care bill
By Dave Gram, Associated Press
MONTPELIER, Vt.—Every Vermonter could sign up for state-financed health insurance under a bill passed by the House on Thursday that would put the state on a path to a single-payer health care system by the middle of this decade.
"This bill takes our state one step closer to a system that ensures that all Vermonters have access to the care they deserve and contains costs," House Speaker Shap Smith said shortly after the House passed the bill 92-49.
The measure now goes to the Senate, where it is expected to pass, but with some possible changes.
MORATORIUM: Any Radiation Exposure Is Unsafe
Physicians for Social Responsibility Calls for a US Moratorium on New Nuclear Reactors, Citing Medical Risks
Warns Any Radiation Exposure Is Unsafe
Washington, DC - March 19, 2011 – Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR) today called for a nationwide
moratorium on new nuclear reactors in the United States and a suspension of operations at the nuclear reactors with a similar design as those involved in the disaster in Japan, as well as those on fault lines. PSR cited the medical risks associated with any level of radiation exposure regardless of how small. Lower doses result in less chance of harm than higher doses, but any dose level can put an individual at risk.
Seismology, Nukes and Bracketology
By Missy Comley Beattie
It's blue here in Kentucky, true blue, a landscape of royal blue, this altar to basketball and home to the Kentucky Wildcats whose devotees are historically and hysterically frenzied for victory.
The same day I awakened to breaking news of breaking tectonic plates, breaking nuclear reactors, and breaking hearts, I left my sister Laura's house for exercise and heliotherapy. An elderly woman pushed her walker in the middle of a street, a man entered his house with a giant box of Pepsi Cola attached to his arm, and another person was at his mailbox. All were costumed in Big Blue fan-ery.
On Sunday, the Cats defeated the Florida Gators to win the SEC tournament. Often, during the action, we zipped to CNN's coverage of Japan's tsunami, earthquakes, and maybe-yes, maybe-no, Chernobyl-like meltdowns.

My hands are curved, poised above the keyboard. I'm staring at a document, blank except for the cursor that's blinking to the rhythm of an Annie Lennox song, "Love is a Stranger." My eyes are focused on this small vertical mark that, at other times, could be a soporific. Just not now. Because the Lennox lyrics are bitter.
It's savage and it's cruel
It shines like destruction
Comes in like a flood
And it seems like religion
It's noble and it's brutal
It distorts and deranges
And it wrenches you up
And you're left like a zombie
This describes love but it could be the tune of our times, as harsh as the world in which we live.
Veterans: WRONG Direction for Funding {once again}
<------- Remember these? They were a big joke and joy for a group still calling themselves republicans and happened as the Country were sending Military Troops into war once again, wars that still continue, and never a real apology for their joke. I'll bet some of them still have some handy to be used and laughed about when their need arises to do so as they wave the flag and condemn others who don't agree with them. Oh and while they seem to get joy about Soldiers being wounded in our wars and awarded the "Purple Heart" these were pointed directly at a brother In-Country Vietnam Navy Veteran, my tour there, as a Navy GunnersMate 3rd, was my last year of my four '70-'71.

Rubbled Raw
Abusers appear when we are most vulnerable. Mistaking their sweet nothings for REAL somethings, we slowly allow harmony to lose its last three letters.
Among the most calculating manipulators are the men and women we elect to represent our interests—but don't. They have a vast menu from which to select their tactics.
They speak to our individualism and, then, tell us what all they're doing on our behalf.
They demand our loyalty. Our servitude.
They juggle fear and hope, throwing sounds to our ears and images to our eyes, pushing beyond the bearable so gradually that the once unthinkable becomes commonplace.
They encourage us to shop and travel but to ALWAYS be alert, and report anything suspicious. "If you see something, say something," Fascism Security Chief Janet Napolitano says, promoting the psychology of fear with a four-pronged campaign that includes locally run "fusion centers" for intelligence sharing. Fusion?
Limiting Caregiver Benefits - VA's Fault?
While I respect Senator Murray and was happy she was picked to take over from Senator Akaka on the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee her attack is another disconnect in what Agencies can do with what Congress, the peoples representatives, gives them as I wrote a short note to her yesterday. The Veterans Admin. has been underfunded, and in many times politically run, since Korea as they moved funds from the Korean Vets to our brother 'Nam Vets and ignored what we were even telling the Country, i.e. PTSD, Agent Orange, Gulf War Syndrome and more. The Country hasn't wanted to fund the results of their wars and Congress follows that bid especially the tax cutters of which just recently they extended the 'Non Sacrifice', especially for the wealthy many making wealth off these wars and readily pony up big campaign contributions, cuts now over the whole decade of these two conflicts.

Bartenders May Have Role in Assisting Troubled War Veterans
ScienceDaily (Jan. 25, 2011) — For troubled war veterans, a friendly bartender can be the source of more than just drinks and a sympathetic ear.
A pilot study suggests that some bartenders may be in a good position to identify veterans in need of mental health services and help connect them to the appropriate agency.
Researchers at Ohio State University surveyed 71 bartenders employed at Veterans of Foreign Wars posts in Ohio.
The results showed that bartenders felt very close to their customers and that these customers shared their problems freely with them, said Keith Anderson, lead author of the study and assistant professor of social work at Ohio State.
The State of the Union: Not a Time for Saccharin and Gimmicks
By Kevin Zeese
Members of the corporate political duopoly switched seats and sat next to each other making it even harder to tell the corporate welfare party from the crony capitalist party. Sadly, the spokespersons for both failed to learn the lessons of history and as a result the American economy will continue to falter with U.S. militarism continuing to expand.
Listening to the saccharin rhetoric of President Obama one would think the nation's economy was flourishing and the military was winning wars. The truth, that the economy is still in collapse and the military is stuck in war quagmires all piling up record debt, was hard to see through his veil of words.
Health Coverage State Waiver Bill Introduced
Via OpEdNews
The Vermont congressional delegation today introduced legislation to let the state implement a single-payer health care system that could become a model for the nation.
Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) introduced a Senate bill and Rep. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) filed legislation in the House that would let Vermont and other states provide better health care at less cost beginning in 2014.

The so called (T)'s {oh the fun with the 'purple heart bandages' as the wars raged}, once long ago (R)'s and even conservative, won't like this, they want but don't want to pay for, and not just war, as most of them were the ones that remained silent for over a decade, still ongoing silence, as to Real Support but very loud as to support of the failed policies and related lies and costs.

A New Opportunity to Push for Medicare for All
A new year and a new political party in power in the House of Representatives provide a new opportunity to keep pushing for a single payer/Medicare for all national health program. For Americans suffering through the increasing cost of health insurance and its decreasing coverage, the health care crisis continues and the health debate has not ended.
Fort Hood Suicides!!
And does Anyone hear these patriotic constitution readers, or any of their supporters, even mention their wars of choice or the veterans and families of?!?!
Army efforts don't stem Fort Hood suicides
6 January 2010 - The Army's largest post saw a record-high number of soldiers kill themselves in 2010 despite a mental health effort aimed at reversing the trend.
The Army says 22 soldiers have either killed themselves or are suspected of doing so last year at its post at Fort Hood in Texas, twice the number from 2009.
That is a rate of 47 deaths per 100,000, compared with a 20-per-100,000 rate among civilians in the same age group and a 22-per-100,000 rate Army-wide.
A Profound and Jarring Disconnect
By Dave Lindorff
Democracy: de-moc-ra-cy, government by the people; the common people of a community, as distinguished from any privileged class
According to the latest poll conducted by CBS "60 Minutes" and the magazine Vanity Fair, 61 percent of Americans want to raise taxes on the wealthy as the primary way to cut the budget. The same poll finds that the second most popular first choice for cutting the nation's budget deficit, at 20 percent, is cutting the military budget. That is, 81 percent of us--four out of five--would cut the deficit by taxing the rich and/or slashing military spending.
Only four percent of those polled favored cutting Medicare, the government-run program that provides health care for the elderly and disabled, and only three percent favored cutting Social Security.

Got lazy making this recipe & DIDN'T use any pastry, so it ended up more like a cobbler, I suppose! BUT, the taste was there, & that's what counts! Used my ol' standby, Granny Smiths! Baked it from the start at 350 degrees F & the apples were tender in just a little over half an hour! [Made & reviewed for one of my adopted chefs in this Spring's PAC]
