CLEMSON -- With a freshman All-American returning at quarterback, few questions should swirl around the position during Clemson's spring practice, right?
Think again.
Quarterback talk dominated much of Dabo Swinney's discussion with the media Thursday, as the Clemson football coach previewed spring practice, which begins Sunday.
While Kyle Parker sits atop the quarterback depth chart this spring, perhaps the most important question for Clemson is whether Parker will be around in August.
Parker is also a baseball prospect, eligible for the Major League Baseball draft in June, and is off to a torrid start for coach Jack Leggett's team.
Still, Swinney remains confident Parker will be back on campus this fall, saying he hopes Parker hits "30 more home runs" this spring. Parker, who has four home runs, is on pace to hit 34.
"I'd be completely shocked if Kyle Parker passes up an opportunity to run down that hill and be the starting quarterback at Clemson to ride a bus to Witchita," Swinney said. "But never say never."
Parker entered the spring as Baseball America's 71st-ranked college prospect and has done nothing but raise his stock with a 1.424 OPS (on base plus slugging percentage).
He has three main options:
--Parker could push the baseball decision to 2011.
--He could sign a pro baseball contract and continue to play football like Washington quarterback Jake Locker.
--Or Parker could follow former Michigan quarterback Drew Henson, who gave up his senior year of football to focus on baseball.
Also consider juniors typically have more bargaining leverage as baseball prospects, with the threat of returning for their senior year. However, Parker said his remaining three years of football eligibility give him future negotiating leverage.
"I still have a whole lot of factors to consider," Parker said. "Ultimately, I think there will be a decision to make at the end of this spring, and depending on what happens, probably at the end of next spring."
While C.J. Spiller was Clemson's most valuable asset last fall, Parker might be the most important player this fall. After all, as a freshman, Parker won an overtime game at Miami, led Clemson to its first Atlantic Division title and owns numerous passing records.
Swinney reminded the media corps that Parker, despite his 6-foot height, is very much a pro football prospect thanks to his quick release, throwing velocity and instincts.
At the NFL Scouting Combine, Swinney chatted with Cleveland Browns quarterbacks coach Carl Smith, who coached Parker in high school. Smith said Parker would stand out among the quarterbacks Smith evaluated at the combine.
But Parker's own father, Carl, told The Post and Courier last fall his son has more upside as a pro baseball prospect, due to his height.
If Parker should exclusively play baseball, Plan B is redshirt freshman Tajh Boyd.
Due to baseball, Parker will miss five spring practices, allowing Boyd considerable reps with the first team. Boyd is still learning the offense after spending the majority of last fall running opposing offenses as the scout-team quarterback.
"It's a big spring for Tajh Boyd," Swinney said. "We've got to make him a viable option to go in and win football games."
Swinney noted without another proven QB on the roster, Boyd is a Parker sprained ankle away from starting.
Or a Parker bus trip to Wichita.

You have to tell him that he's making you uncomfortable and you don't want to be around him at all. He needs to leave you alone. You need to be firm, and don't feel obligated to spare his feelings. Have one of your girlfriends help you out if you really need it.
I've had to do this with a guy and it took a few tries, but he did leave me alone once he realized I was serious.

Pilar Marrero: Moral issues rank very low in Latino Voter's minds when making a voting decision while issues like the economy, jobs, taxes and minimum wage are far more important, a new poll released today shows.

Tracy Emblem: Mitt Romney offers no solutions on how individuals and states will be able to reduce health care costs.

There is no incentive to lower costs because people need medical care – it's a commodity that must be purchased.
Immigration Bill Too Much for Mitt to Read

During the past 75 years the rival merits of prophylactic vs therapeutic castration have been vigorously championed more or less empirically by many clinicians concerned with the total treatment of breast cancer. In premenopausal patients with operable breast cancer, is it wiser to perform prophylactic castration as an adjunct to mastectomy or is it wiser to reserve this procedure for the palliative treatment of recurrent or metastatic disease? This is, indeed, the doctor's dilemma! As long as the practice of medicine continues to be a "science of uncertainty and an art of probability" then the patient's "destiny trembles in the balance, and the preponderance of either scale is by our own choice."
Therapeutic Castration.—
It is quite obvious that ovarian hormones have a profound effect on hormonesensitive cancers of the breast. The remarkable clinical response of some tumors of the breast to therapeutic castration certainly confirms this concept. This beneficial

I run LVM on top of a RAID-1 array (i.e. pvcreate /dev/md0). I tried it the other way around (RAID-1 on LVM, i.e. /dev/md1 and /dev/md2 in the raidtab), but ran into problems with device numbering changing between configuration and rebooting, but I never did try to resolve it. It would be great to have LVM do logical volume level mirroring like HP-UX LVM, but not necessary since the kernel does RAID separately (unlike the HP-UX kernel). > Also, what type of filesystem is recommended for use with LVM (and > possibly RAID 1? I'm quite hopeful for that...) I'm thinking ReiserFS is > the FS of choice here, but would anyone mind clairifying for me why it > would be better, or which you think would be better? I like reiserfs - as mentioned before it is a little easier to resize than ext2, journaling is nice if you want quick repairs, and it has some interesting features coming down the pipe along with anticipated increases in performance as the code base matures. I'm using reiserfs now and have had zero problems (so far) and have already taken advantage of the ability to resize mounted filesystems several times. -Evan

New Black Market Painkiller Hits Canada, 40 Times Stronger Than Heroin
A new black market painkiller has spread across Canada, and experts say it is 40 times stronger than heroin.
Canadian police have warned against the dangers of the potent new drug, called desmethyl fentanyl, which has hit the black market in Montreal.
According to the CBC, the drug comes in the form of a pill, stamped with familiar copycat logos like that of Facebook, and is being marketed to young people.
In April, Montreal police raided several locations and seized more than 300,000 illegally produced synthetic prescription drugs, including desmethyl fentanyl.
Some doctors feel the new drug could prove exceptionally dangerous to potential users.
"The impacts are very unpredictable, and the unsophisticated users not knowing the impacts of the drugs that they are taking, not knowing the mixture of what's in these pills is going to result, unfortunately, in many tragedies," Dr. Peter Vamos said during an interview with the CBC.
The drug is so strong, that even some of the officers who handled the drug suffered injuries.
Fentanyl alone is a powerful painkiller that is usually prescribed to cancer patients or those who suffer from chronic pain in the form of a patch.
Desmethyl fentanyl takes it to the next step, chemically altered to be 80 times stronger than morphine.

And God said, "Let there be evolution!"
A smart, thought provoking look at establishing a middle ground between major world religions and science.
The book answers "YES!" to the question, "Is it possible to reconcile the Theory of Evolution with the Scriptures?" And ascertains that accepting evolution does not require abandoning one's faith.
Created in response to 9/11, And God said, "Let there be evolution!" addresses the continuing conflict between science teaching and religious beliefs, the dangerous effects of scriptural literalism, and heightened interest in interfaith initiatives. A Jewish scientist (David Kay, Conservative Rabbi in Florida), Christian scientist (Howard Van Till, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of Astronomy and Physics at Calvin College in Michigan), and Muslim scientist (T.O. Shanavas, M.D., pediatrician in Michigan) present scientific evidence for the Theory of Evolution and then explain how they reconcile that theory with the scriptural sources and beliefs of their religions.
"It's about time. Intelligent religious people offering rational perspectives on evolution and their beliefs is a welcome addition to the ongoing conversation about this issue. Enlightened discussions such as this, reconciling evolutionary theory with religious beliefs, seem like the best way forward. And if it's true that evolution favors a cooperative species, it would be nice if that turns out to be homo sapiens." – Jonathan Rowe, Amazon reviewer

Nestled within the popular Club Sierra Sports and Fitness Center in Grass Valley, Cafe Sierra is celebrating one year of service to the community.
"Cafe Sierra food is always fresh and delicious and less expensive than in other restaurants. In this economy, getting good wholesome food that costs less is a real bonus," said Marc Cuniberti, The Union columnist, "Money Matters" talk show host on KVMR Radio, and friend and mentor to Cafe Sierra.
"Food, Fitness and Friends" is Cafe Sierra's motto. My partner, Dale Sayles, and I believe it describes this very special place, loved by gym members and the general public. Customers over the year have actively helped to shape our menu, which uses only the finest ingredients.
Made-to-order sandwiches feature fine meats from P.J.'s Deli, of Nevada City. Smoothies designed by fitness trainers support workout programs and overall health. Italian grilled panini sandwiches melt in your mouth, and espresso drinks are freshly ground for each cup.
"Cafe Sierra is the only restaurant I frequent," said trainer Brandon Bergeron. He developed "Brandon's Body Boost," a high-protein smoothie.
"Yoga Berry Burst" smoothie, created by trainer Wanda Perez, is a refreshing meal in a glass.
"Healthful food is equally important as exercise," said Perez, who also teaches classes on healthy eating.
"Cafe Sierra smoothies have saved me many times after a zumba class," added trainer Geri Campbell.
Dale Sayles and I look forward to an exciting second year, with a new video and web presence on FaceBook and Twitter.
Cheryl Precivale is one of the owners of Cafe Sierra. Co-owner Dale Sayles and their customers assisted with this article.

NEW YORK -- Chock full o' Nuts Corp. here is looking to add retailer tie-ins as the next step in a successful new radio advertising campaign for its well-known coffee.

Understanding the neural substrates of schizophrenia has long been a goal of psychiatrists and neurobiologists. For the clinician, more precise understanding could translate into advances in diagnosis and treatment. For the neurobiologist, such knowledge could provide general insights into the mechanisms of higher cognitive function.
Much recent work has focused on the prefrontal cortex (PFC), especially the dorsolateral PFC (DLPFC), which roughly corresponds to Brodmann's area 9. While changes in other brain regions have been reported,1,2 a growing body of converging evidence suggests that disruptions of the DLPFC play a particularly important role in the origins and course of the illness. Positron emission tomography studies,3 regional cerebral blood flow studies in patients performing the Wisconsin Card Sort,4 and cytoarchitectonic studies1 have revealed abnormalities in the DLPFC. These studies suggest that in schizophrenics, the DLPFC is hypoactive relative to other brain regions.

Click here to read the article. This is not a research study, it's just some wonderful quotes from some long-term married folks. Said Rosemary Kreder (91) about her husband, "His jokes are so bad that they're actually funny. And he always waits for the laugh."
Spoiler Alert: what are the two most common responses? Humor and Laughter. No surprise there. Not sure who first said it but....Take what you do seriously; don't take yourself too seriously. YES....inject humor and levity into your marriage...a well as your family....as well as your friendships....as well as your life! Laughter has been shown to be therapeutic, just like smiling is contagious. That's my conclusion and as Steven Wright says: A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking.

Extended Family Moving Closer? Sounds Great for Marriage
According to a recent New York Times article, the typical adult now lives only 18 miles from his/her mother. Over the last few decades, Americans have become less mobile. Extended family nearby is a terrific indicator for healthy marriages because it means we're becoming a country of close-knit families. Members of multiple generations can lean on one another for financial and practical support. And close proximity to Grandchildren = Priceless.

NPR-Cincinnati...My Favorite Book-Related Radio Interview
One NPR caller to this show asked....When there are 7 billion people in the world, why have any children? I responded: It is totally your decision; in my entire career spanning over 3 decades I never encouraged couples or suggested, that what they need for their marriage is a child, or another child.
The most asked question of my book: So, Dr. Singer, what really is the perfect family size? My book has 92 self-test questions that assist couples in making the best decision for themselves. Couples shouldn't ask, What is the ideal number of children to have? They should ask: Are we both ready to have another child now (regardless of gender)?

The Distracting Power of a Cellphone
According to a series of experiments led by researchers at the University of Essex, just putting your cell phone on the table (not even holding it) appears to reduce in-person conversation quality. The researchers observed, "The evidence indicates the mere presence of mobile phones inhibited the development of interpersonal closeness and trust, and reduced the extent to which individuals felt empathy and understanding from their partners."
You know how we dump our boots in the "mud" room on the way into our homes? Maybe a bin for phones belongs there too.

Did You Get Some Chill Time Last Summer? If Not, Plan Your Winter Break for You and Your Family's Sake
Vacation is no laughing matter. It's imperative for you and your family to hit the reset button in your brain. A walk in nature or listening to music acts as a neural reset button and provides much needed perspective on what you're doing. Taking breaks is biologically restorative. If you were a workaholic all summer, plan a winter getaway in some warm weather with your spouse and family.....for goodness sakes. Click Here for Daniel Levitin's NY Times article.

Facebook, others warn adverse ruling could slow Web development
EBay, Facebook, IAC and Yahoo! have come to the defense of YouTube as it faces a $1 billion copyright infringement lawsuit from Viacom.
The four companies have filed an amici curiae brief in U.S. District Court in New York, arguing that should the court favor Viacom's legal arguments, the growth of the Internet would be jeopardized and "fear of liability could discourage many Internet service providers from developing platforms for use by the public at large."
In its lawsuit, filed in 2007, Viacom claims that YouTube's business model hinged on hosting infringing content and that it did little to stop posting of videos from some of its properties, such as "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" and reality shows on MTV.
YouTube and its parent company, Google, have said they are protected by the "safe harbor" provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and, when they received takedown notices from copyright holders, promptly responded.
Earlier this month, Disney, Warner Bros. and NBC Universal filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting Viacom.

Where the Wild Things Are is one of those truly rare books that can be enjoyed equally by a child and a grown-up. If you disagree, then it's been too long since you've attended a wild rumpus. Max dons his wolf suit in pursuit of some mischief and gets sent to bed without supper. Fortuitously, a forest grows in his room, allowing his wild rampage to continue unimpaired. Sendak's color illustrations (perhaps his finest) are beautiful, and each turn of the page brings the discovery of a new wonder.
The wild things--with their mismatched parts and giant eyes--manage somehow to be scary-looking without ever really being scary; at times they're downright hilarious. Sendak's defiantly run-on sentences--one of his trademarks--lend the perfect touch of stream of consciousness to the tale, which floats between the land of dreams and a child's imagination.

I recently had some work done on my laptop, which originally came equipped with Windows Vista, and this game (and MM7 and Civ3 - haven't tried MM8 on it yet) worked fine. However, I had Windows 7 installed instead of Vista, and now while I can install the game, it won't start up. (I was out of town, and so couldn't try MM7 or -8, or Civ3 - and now I need more work done on it so I can't try anything yet.) Is this expected? Is Windows 7 so far advanced (comparatively speaking) that it won't operate the older games anymore? Or is a patch out there somewhere?
Pretty sure I didn't run the Greyface patch, yet ... I'll give it a shot when I have the computer back up & running (power cord jack is dead). Thanks.

This is the second edition of our weekly column where we analyze the top 10 head coaches' decisions from the prior weekend. The decisions in question don't always have to be about in-game strategy moves. It could be about player personnel decisions, specific game plans or a host of other potential topics that could lead to a coach winding up on the list.
These decisions can either be judged as good ones or bad ones. Some weeks there could be more than five good or five bad candidates, and in those cases, we will do our best to go with the most obvious choices.
It is not outside the realm of possibility that a coach could actually appear for both a good decision as well as a bad decision in the same week. In fact, we do have at least one coach who will appear on the list twice this week, for both a good and a bad decision.
Since everyone is an armchair quarterback, I am looking forward to the weekly challenge, and we will see what you think of the choices each week. If you feel strongly that some coaching decision should have made this list, but it didn't for some reason, then feel free to include your thoughts in the comments section.

Apple's continuous attacks made a pretty big damage for Samsung after they've managed to ban the sales of the Samsung Galaxy tab 2 and the Galaxy Nexus smartphone in the US. As soon as the court orders were issued, Samsung also made appeals to get those devices back on sale in the US. Sadly they've failed to win the Galaxy Tab 2 appeal but the US court has decided to go soft on the Galaxy Nexus lawsuit and lift the sales ban temporarily.
Samsung will now bring the Galaxy Nexus back on sale but under temporary basis and the patent lawsuit battle will still continue even with or without the sales ban of the device. Samsung and Apple will face the next trial on 30th of July to decide the true fate of the device.
In the mean time, Google is already working to bring the new Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update to the device, and they have also promised to place the device back on sale after these modification, which of course depends on the next court order.

Hezbollah Official Flees to Israel with Embezzled Millions
Last month, Yoni Alpert's Terror Watch reported that Iranian Revolutionary Guards along with Hezbollah's security apparatus arrested Hussein Fahs, who is considered Hezbollah's CFO and head of the organization's operational communications network. Fahs was arrested at Beirut's Hariri Airport, on his way to an unknown destination. He and four other Hezbollah members were interrogated on suspicion of embezzling the organization's funds and of collaborating with Israeli Intelligence. At the time it was suspected that they stole at least $5 million in Iranian aid funds.
Now it turns out, according to TW, citing Lebanese sources, that Fahs, a 29-year-old telecommunications engineer, a native of southern Lebanon, was able to flee the country, crossing the border into Israel.
According to official Hezbollah sources, Fahs took with him maps, classified documents and a large sum of money.
In somewhat related news, on Tuesday a Lebanese Military Tribunal Judge by the name of Imad al-Zein issued eight arrest warrants against Lebanese citizens charged with collaborating with Israel, Lebanon's National News Agency reported.
According to the report, seven women and one man are charged in absentia with collaborating with Israel, entering Israel illegally and obtaining Israeli citizenship.
The suspects face 15 years of hard labor in prison—but, naturally, they would have to be captured first
The eight are also natives of southern Lebanon.
According to Nahar Net, Lebanese authorities have arrested more than 100 people on suspicion of collaborating with the Israeli spy agency Mossad since April 2009, including high-ranking security and telecommunications officials.Yori Yanover

Includes - A Christmas Carol (1938), MPAA Rating: NR The Shop Around the Corner (1940), MPAA Rating: NR Christmas in Connecticut (1945), MPAA Rating: NR It Happened on Fifth Avenue (1947) A Christmas Carol For a generation of radio fans, Lionel Barrymore was the definitive Ebeneezer Scrooge. Alas, Barrymore was crippled by arthritis by the time MGM got around to filming Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol in 1938, so the Scrooge role went to contract player Reginald Owen - who, though hardly in the Barrymore league, does a splendid job. Hugo Butler's screenplay must make some adjustments from the source material. The Ghost of Christmas Past, for example, is played not by a robust middle-aged man but by a beautiful young woman (Ann Rutherford). Impeccably cast, the film includes such reliable character players as Leo G. Carroll (Marley's Ghost), Barry McKay (Scrooge's nephew Fred) and Gene and Kathleen Lockhart (Bob and Mrs. Cratchit). The Lockhart's teenaged daughter June makes her screen debut as one of the Cratchit children, while Terry Kilburn is a fine, non-sentimental Tiny Tim. Commenably short for a major production (69 minutes), MGM's Christmas Carol is one of the best adaptations of the oft-filmed Dickens Yuletide classic, and definitely on equal footing with the more famous 1951 Alastair Sim version. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide The Shop Around the Corner The Shop Around the Corner is adapted from the Hungarian play by Nikolaus (Miklos) Laszlo. Budapest gift-shop clerk Alfred Kralik (James Stewart) and newly hired shopgirl Klara Novak (Margaret Sullavan) hate each other almost at first sight. Kralik would prefer the company of the woman with whom he is corresponding by mail but has never met. Novak likewise carries a torch for her male pen pal, whom she also has never laid eyes on. It doesn't take a PhD degree to figure out that Kralik and Novak have been writing letters to each other. The film's many subplots are carried by Frank Morgan as the kindhearted shopkeeper and by Joseph Schildkraut as a backstabbing employee whose comeuppance is sure to result in spontaneous applause from the audience. Directed with comic delicacy by Ernst Lubitsch, this was later remade in 1949 as In the Good Old Summertime, and in 1998 as You've Got Mail. It was also musicalized as the 1963 Broadway production She Loves Me. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide Christmas in Connecticut War hero Dennis Morgan becomes the object of a publicity stunt staged by magazine publisher Sidney Greenstreet. The corpulent print mogul announces that Morgan has won a Christmas dinner, to be prepared by the magazine's housekeeping expert Barbara Stanwyck in her own Connecticut home. The catch: Not only does Stanwyck not have a home in Connecticut, but she's never been in a kitchen in her life! She also doesn't have a husband (as her articles claim), so Stanwyck's erstwhile beau Reginald Gardiner is pressed into service as the hubby. As for the cooking, that will be handled by master chef S. Z. "Cuddles" Sakall. This solves everything, right? No way, Jose. Long dismissed as a lesser film farce, Christmas in Connecticut has its own irresistible charm, and has in recent years become a perennial Christmas-eve TV attraction. Pay absolutely no attention to the 1992 TV remake, starring Dyan Cannon and directed by Arnold Schwarzenegger. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide It Happened on Fifth Avenue It Happened On Fifth Avenue was easily the most ambitious movie made by the then-newly-organized Allied Artists for at least a decade after its release -- actually, as a "Roy Del Ruth Production," it was made through rather than by Allied Artists, which may explain why it stands so far apart from the Bowery Boys movies and other productions normally associated with Allied during this period. And amazingly, it works, mostly thanks to a genial cast and a reasonably light touch by director/producer Roy Del Ruth, and in spite of a script that needed at least one more ed

Charlie is also not a shy woman about her body if you catch her at the right time and motivate her creativity.

Amzi Chapin

|Years active
|1790s to 1830s
Amzi Chapin (1768–19 February 1835) was an American cabinetmaker, singing-school teacher, shapenote proponent and composer.
Chapin was born in Springfield, Massachusetts into a family of cabinet-makers. His father was Edward Chapin (1724–1800) of Chicopee MA. He had two older brothers, Aaron and Lucius (1760-1842).[1] The family is believed to be of Puritan descent.[2]
Chapin worked in Hartford, Connecticut from 1788 until 1791,[3] when he moved to New Haven. Thereafter he embarked on a career as an itinerant singing teacher, composer and cabinetmaker in the South and Midwest.
Chapin married Hannah Power, daughter of Rev. James Power, on 10 October 1800 in Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania, where he taught and farmed for the next thirty years.[4] They had eight children including six daughters named Mary Jane, Eunice, Eliza, Rebecca and Hannah. All moved to Northfield except Mary who died in Pennsylvania at age 30.[5][6]

Chapin taught singing schools in Virginia and North Carolina, before moving to Kentucky and then Pennsylvania. He was a proponent of Andrew Law's four-note method of shape note notation. Lucius Chapin was also a singing teacher, and the two were apparently among the first to teach sacred music west of the Allegheny Mountains. The well-known tune "Primrose" (47t in the Sacred Harp) is by Amzi Chapin, while Lucius contributed "Vernon" (95) and the Ninety-Third Psalm (31t). "Olney" and "Rockingham" (63 and 300b in the Southern Harmony) are credited to "Chapin".

It's never the action, it's the cover up.Yesterday RedState broke a significant story which points to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the nation's premier public health organization, making a conscious decision to stop publishing the only federal report on abortion.To briefly recap, for 40 years the CDC has published the Abortion Surveillance Report. For 40 years that report has appeared in the last November or first December issue of CDC's journal, the Morbidity and Mortality Report Weekly Report. This year it didn't. A RedState tradition has been to use this report for our annual retrospective on abortion. When it didn't appear in November… or December… or in January we decided to ask why.That inquiry and its response led to our article yesterday.The internet is an amazing thing. After weeks of checking and phone calls and emails ... no report. Then one blog post at RedState later, and suddenly the CDC is falling over themselves to produce something. Funny how that works. Two hours and six minutes after the post went live we had an official response from CDC. The full response is posted below the fold.According to the CDC we should move along because there is nothing to see here. Really? We're not so sure.One thing the government does well is routine. If you have any doubt witness the difference between how the government reacts to an emergency and how it delivers Social Security checks or collects taxes. A low intensity statistical report that has been produced at the same time for the past 40 years would strike most of us as the epitome of routine. "Wait," says their reply, "it isn't that simple". Here is their "explanation". (Full text of statement below the fold):
My understanding is the population data needed to develop rate/ratio statistics was not available at the time we normally prepare the ASR. It is these data that are often desired by many to track trends and changes in a most precise way possible.
Possible. But is it likely? Another key fact is that the report in question covers abortions conducted in the United States in 2007. So the population data has been extant for at least two years because the Census Bureau - which has done routine real well for, oh, 200 years - had that particular data aggregated on July 1, 2008. That's pretty "available" by our standards.But let's just pretend for a moment the data was somehow not "available" to the CDC. Why? It was available to the Census. Indeed, it was available to anyone with internet access. But somehow the CDC was out of the loop? A more likely and obvious reason the data weren't available is that a decision had been made to not acquire the data.Now we're assured that the 2007 Abortion Surveillance Report is "tentatively" – CDC's response has this word in bold so we're assuming the real context is "not going to happen but we're counting on you guys forgetting about it" – scheduled to be published this month. By "this month" they are saying that it will appear in one of the next three issues of the MMWR.But wait. The response also says the editorial calendar is booked "well in advance." Most of us would assume "well in advance" is more than three weeks, especially as the report in question will have to proceed through various levels of clearance from the authors through final approval at the Department of Health and Human Services. So if it isn't on the calendar… which is implied by the CDC response… and the calendar is locked in well in advance ... how do we make the trip from there to here?The short answer is that now CDC is about to do the other thing bureaucracies do frequently but not well: panic. After all, the CDC told us last week there were 'no plans' to release the data. The CDC now says (at least as of late yesterday) it is scheduled for 'this month'. Did the CDC just not bother looking at the editorial calendar it now tells us is booked 'well in advance'?We have very little doubt what happened it this case. An inconvenient report was quietly killed. The interview we had with the CDC press office confirmed that not only had the report not been written but that there were no plans to do so. This was confirmed by the CDC. The person who confirmed it was not confused. She did not misunderstand. She answered that the report hadn't been produced, that she didn't know why, and that she would find out. She then later called back to confirm that it was not an oversight, and that the report would not be forthcoming. The distance between that response and the current position of it being ready to go to press at seemingly a moment's notice is difficult to bridge without a skyhook.The CDC did not run the report. They confirmed that they were not going to run the report. Only after we brought attention to it have they begun scrambling to appear as if they were going to do it all along. At RedState, we're reminded of the guy who trips on a curb and, embarassed, explains, "totally meant to do that."
Full text of CDC response:
Our office prepares the Abortion Surveillance Report (ASR). The next report (for calendar year 2007) is tentatively scheduled for release this month, pending no problems with the publishing schedule for CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Report (MMWR). The ASR is published annually as a MMWR Surveillance Summary. My understanding is the population data needed to develop rate/ratio statistics was not available at the time we normally prepare the ASR. It is these data that are often desired by many to track trends and changes in a most precise way possible. This created a change in the schedule for MMWR Summary release as the "editorial calendar" is booked well in advance. Also, please know the ASR is compiled from aggregate data reported by several states and reporting areas. We do take great pains to be sure the data reported is as accurate as possible. Our website presents general information about the ASR – and perhaps might be helpful in the future. www.cdc.gov/reproductivehealth/Data_Stats/Abortion.htm is the "launch page" for information about this topic.I apologize for any misunderstanding about the report's release.

Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
NSCLC is "Major Battlefield" as Merck,...
Pfizer reports the first positive Phase III results in a long time for its anticancer agent Sutent. Patients with advanced pancreatic islet cell tumors treated with the compound had a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 11.1 months compared to those on placebo who had a PFS of 5.5 months.
This trial was stopped earlier this year, Pfizer says, after the Data Monitoring Committee recommended doing so, because they found that Sutent showed significant benefit and the study met its primary endpoint.
Sutent is an oral multikinase inhibitor currently approved for advanced renal cell carcinoma and second-line gastrointestinal stromal tumor. Pfizer is studying the compound in a slew of solid tumor settings in the hopes of expanding the label.
Evaluations of Sutent in two advanced breast cancer settings, however, failed to show improvements and have been stopped. These Phase III studies looked at Sutent in combination with paclitaxel as a first-line treatment of advanced breast cancer and Sutent alone in patients with advanced breast cancer who had failed standard treatment.
The success in the late-stage advanced pancreatic islet cell tumor study thus marks a departure from the trend of Sutent failures. The trial compared the drug to placebo in patients with progressive, well-differentiated, malignant pancreatic islet cell tumors who had progressed in the last 12 months. Patients were randomized to either the Sutent (n=75; 37.5 mg/day, continuous daily dosing) plus best supportive care arm or placebo plus best supportive care arm (n=79).
The most commonly reported grade 3–4 adverse events in the Sutent arm were neutropenia (12.3%), hypertension (8.8%), abdominal pain (7%), diarrhea (7%), hypoglycemia (7%), and hand-foot syndrome (7%).

Ten people were injured Sunday when a tour bus carrying 20 passengers crashed on a Cape Breton highway, but only one suffered injuries that were described as serious.
The Mounties said emergency crews airlifted one person from the scene with serious injuries after a bus, which was carrying 20 passengers plus the driver, lost control and tipped onto its side into a ditch shortly before 2:30 p.m. on Sunday.
Another nine people suffered what are described as moderate injuries.
The single-vehicle crash occurred about three kilometres south of Neil's Harbour.
Police said they have not yet confirmed what caused the bus driver to lose control.
"Often times, when you have highway closures traffic will simply be rerouted to a secondary road around the collision," said Sgt. Brigdit Leger. "But of course it's the Cabot Trail so there is no secondary highway. So traffic is being turned around."
The Halifax Chronicle Herald reported the bus had Pennsylvania license plates, but the nationalities of the passengers was not immediately known.

Inspiring Big Changes in How We Address Poverty: What I Take Away from Pope Francis' Visit
By Tom Salyers
Most mornings, I walk past St. Matthew's Cathedral where Pope Francis will celebrate Mass this afternoon. I see homeless people out front seeking pocket change from parishioners leaving Mass and—on Monday mornings—receiving food, clothing, and toiletries from the church's homeless ministry.
For me, the take away from the Pope's visit is not a religious one. Rather, we should all take away a sense of momentum. We should commit to truly seeing the homeless and poor people we're accustomed to walking past, as well as pursuing large-scale changes that help the most vulnerable.
One of my first experiences with social change came in my 20s when I was a member of an urban Atlanta Catholic parish with a very active social justice ministry. In addition to serving people who were hungry and homeless, the church was a pioneer in the early stages of the AIDS crisis with its outreach and support to those afflicted with HIV and AIDS. I became actively engaged in the life of Joseph, a man with HIV who lived in public housing and used a wheelchair. What began with my providing him weekly transportation to Mass blossomed into a friendship that lasted more than a decade until Joseph's untimely death from complications of AIDS. As a young adult with a corporate job, and still in the process of finding myself, this taught me the value of seeing real needs up close and participating in a community committed to making a difference.
Even though I moved away from regular church attendance, that early experience showed me the importance of understanding the lives of poor and vulnerable people through their eyes, in their own words and experiences—and the importance of contributing to substantial and positive change.
Since leaving the corporate world for nonprofit social change organizations 20 years ago, I have seen those two principles—understanding the reality of low-income people's lives and staying committed to large-scale, systemic change—motivate the work of passionate people who bring a wide range of faith and secular perspectives. At CLASP, our talented team works every day to understand vulnerable people's lives through both individual stories and the power of data and research to bring many stories together. At the same time, we stay focused on the opportunity for large-scale policy and systems change that can improve the trajectory of many people's lives at once, however discouraging a particular day's policy or budget news. (For example, just last week we analyzed new data from the U.S. Census Bureau to shine a light on those most affected by poverty as well as public policies like the Affordable Care Act and the Earned Income Tax Credit that are making meaningful positive changes in people's lives.) Our emphasis on facing problems head on while also insisting on solutions is what makes us an effective voice for change. And as CLASP's communications director who is responsible for bringing to the public the depth of our knowledge about data and solutions, I relish the good stories we can tell in the face of an otherwise despairing situation where even one person living in poverty is too many, let alone the 14.8 percent of Americans who are poor.
So, when I peer down the block today at the excitement surrounding the pope's visit to St. Matthew's, I will channel that energy into a renewed enthusiasm for effecting change, building on the inspiration I gained many years ago through my early experiences with social justice, brought to life for me through Joseph.

Pennsylvania House GOP: Poverty Isn't a Partisan Problem
The effort is designed to identify and examine "the barriers in place for individuals and families attempting to reach self-sufficiency." The Committee recently released a mid-term report, "Beyond Poverty," which identifies such barriers as unaffordable child care, lack of health care, a criminal record, limited financial literacy skills, inadequate education, homelessness, mental health problems, hunger, substance abuse, lack of transportation, and "benefits cliffs" in which earnings increases jeopardize eligibility for benefits programs.
The House GOP Committee received some kudos for being inclusive and reaching across the political spectrum throughout the initiative. For example, in a blog post entitled "Poverty Isn't A Partisan Problem," the free-market Commonwealth Foundation applauded the Committee for inviting stakeholders of all perspectives to share their insights. The more liberal-oriented Community Action Association of Pennsylvania also celebrated the Committee's work-to-date by awarding the Republican chair its Public Official of the Year for his "leadership in making poverty a priority issue."
Community Legal Services of Philadelphia has also been complimentary, stating that "the report accurately outlines many of the barriers facing the low-income Pennsylvanians we see every day, including lack of jobs and employment opportunities, criminal records, lack of affordable child care, transportation, and health insurance, and the inability to move forward in life in the face of hunger and homelessness. We look forward to continuing to work with… the committee as they move into Phase Two of their efforts." At the same time, the group noted that they "would have liked to see the report pay more attention to the fact that a changing economy, with a greater share of low-wage jobs with few benefits, has made escaping poverty much harder."
As the Committee moves forward from its initial analysis to its recommendations, anti-poverty advocates across the nation should stay tuned to see whether the across-the-aisle approach holds. While there are bound to be differences over policy solutions, there may also be some common ground. If elected officials and other stakeholders can have a healthy debate in Pennsylvania, perhaps anti-poverty policies can be the focus of civil discourse in other states and at the national level as well. After all, Pennsylvania's slogan is "America Starts Here."

House Budget Committee and Anti-Poverty Programs
By Lauren French
Can we solve poverty by cutting programs designed to alleviate it? The 50th anniversary of President Lyndon Johnson's launch of the War on Poverty has given the powerful House Budget Committee and its chair, Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) a "hook" to drive attention to such federal programs and a platform for discussing whether and to what degree to continue investments in them.
Ryan has released his budget and held a set of hearings. The latest hearing, held April 30 was entitled "Lessons from the Frontlines."
The hearing witnesses offered their perspectives on the role of federal funding in fighting poverty. The first two witnesses to testify, Robert Woodson, founder of the Center for Neighborhood Enterprise, and Bishop Dr. Shirley Holloway, founder of House of Help City of Hope, work with individuals facing a variety of issues including drug addiction, incarceration, and homelessness. Both expressed criticism of federal anti-poverty spending and advocated for faith-based programs. Woodson testified that "compassion for the poor cannot be defined by how much we spend on them." Holloway agreed with Woodson, adding that "love is greater than any dollar."
In response to these witnesses, Budget Committee member Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA) voiced her concerns noting , "we also need public policies that provide opportunity for all." Private charities themselves argue they cannot possibly make up for large federal cuts. For example, the Ryan budget cuts would slash the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program ("SNAP," formerly known as food stamps) by $137 billion over 10 years. Another witness, Marian Wright Edelman, President of the Children's Defense Fund, adamantly defended federal programs such as Head Start and the Earned Income Tax Credit. "The War on Poverty has lifted millions of children and families out of poverty," Edelman testified, "and I am very concerned that 50 years later some people think the best way forwards is backwards – trying to unravel the very investments that have had such impact and given millions of children a new lease on life and hope for the future."
Ryan's "Path to Prosperity" budget makes profound cuts to those investments. A recent analysis by the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities notes that the budget plan would achieve the vast bulk of its "savings" by making cuts to programs that serve low-income families and individuals; in fact, fully 69 percent of non-defense cuts would be made to such programs
At the hearing, committee Democrats challenged the "Path to Prosperity" budget plan and stressed the need for federal funding as central to an effective anti-poverty agenda. "We want the same thing as the other side wants, which is to get rid of programs that don't work," explained Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ), "But damn it, many of these programs do work and many of these programs are the difference between life and death in our community."

Within the past few weeks two important books on art have appeared in this country—20,000 Years of World Paintings, edited by Jaffe, and Medicine in Art, edited by Rousselot. The reproductions in each volume are delightful, the lithography is outstanding, and the prices are consistent with the quality.
Medicine in Art is not an encyclopedic treatise, but it fills one void among several. Each of the principal contributors is European or European-oriented. Ilza Veith, formerly of the University of Chicago and now professor of the history of medicine at the University of California and the outstanding Western scholar of Oriental medicine, prepared the section on the Far East and the Middle East.
