Winston-Salem, NC - The Dash home opener ended in a victory for the home squad as Winston-Salem grinded out a 1-0 win over the Carolina Mudcats Friday evening at BB&T Ballpark.
Carlos Sanchez drew a leadoff walk to start the seventh before scoring from second on a Dan Black RBI single.
Winston-Salem (4-3) didn't record a hit until the fifth inning when Mike Blanke singled before being thrown out trying to stretch it into a double.
Carolina (4-3) starter Mike Rayl took a no-hitter into the fifth inning but got his second loss of the season after giving up a one-out RBI single to Dan Black that scored Sanchez from second.
Andre Rienzo posted six shutout innings in the longest outing for a Dash starter this season. He worked out of a bases loaded jam in the second and stranded seven Mudcats on the night. The right hander also recorded nine strikeouts, one shy of his career high.
The Winston-Salem bullpen allowed only hit over the final three innings. Jon Bachanov recorded three strikeouts in two innings of work and got the first win of the season for a Winston-Salem relief pitcher. Leroy Hunt pitched a perfect ninth inning to notch the save.
The Dash home stand continues tomorrow night against the Mudcats at 7:00 p.m. Spencer Arroyo (0-0, 17.18 ERA) takes the hill for Winston-Salem, while Michael Goodnight (0-0, 7.94 ERA) goes for Carolina.

Analysis of new data confirms bisphenol A link to disease in adults
Researchers from the Peninsula Medical School and the University of Exeter, UK, have found more evidence for a link between Bisphenol A exposure (BPA, a chemical commonly used in plastic food containers) and cardiovascular disease. The team analysed new US population data and their results are published by the online journal, PLoS ONE. The new study uses data from NHANES 2006-2006 US population study. While the new study found that urinary BPA concentrations were one third lower than in 2003-2004, higher BPA concentrations in urine samples were still associated with heart disease in 2005-2006. Associations with some liver enzymes were also present. Their original paper in 2008 was the first to find evidence of associations between BPA and heart disease, and this new data confirms their earlier findings.
In 2008 the team believed that higher urinary BPA concentrations might be associated with adverse health effects in adults, especially in relation to liver function, insulin, diabetes and obesity. By using data from the US government's National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2004-2004, which for the first time measured urinary BPA concentrations, the research team found that a quarter of the population with the highest levels of BPA were more than twice as likely to report having heart disease or diabetes, compared to the quarter with the lowest BPA levels. They also found that higher BPA levels were associated with clinically abnormal liver enzyme concentrations.
Professor David Melzer, Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health at the Peninsula Medical School (Exeter, UK), who led the team, commented: "This is only the second analysis of BPA in a large human population sample. It has allowed us to largely confirm our original analysis and exclude the possibility that our original findings were a statistical 'blip'"
Professor Tamara Galloway, Professor of Ecotoxicology at the University of Exeter and senior author of the paper added: "We now need to investigate what causes these health risk associations in more detail and to clarify whether they are caused by BPA itself or by some other factor linked to BPA exposure. The risks associated with exposure to BPA may be small, but they are relevant to very large numbers of people. This information is important since it provides a great opportunity for intervention to reduce the risks."
BPA is a controversial chemical commonly used in food and drink containers. It has previously caused concerns over health risks to babies, as it is present in some baby's bottles. Several nations have moved to ban BPA from the manufacture of baby's bottles and other feeding equipment.
BPA is used in polycarbonate plastic products such as refillable drinks containers, some plastic eating utensils and many other products in everyday use. It is one of the world's highest production volume chemicals, with over 2.2 million tonnes (6.4 billion pounds) produced annually, and it is detectable in the bodies of more than 90% of the population.

SEVERANCE — Evan Netzer received a back-to-school gift he'll probably never forget.
Netzer, 30, a fifth-grade teacher at Range View Elementary School in Severance, learned two days before the first day of school that 100 percent of his 24 fifth-graders scored proficient and advanced on their Transitional Colorado Assessment Program reading tests last spring.
"It's a staff full of awesome people, and last year I just happened to have the group of kids that did a really great job. They all just tried really hard," Netzer said.
Netzer, who started his fifth year of teaching at Range View on Thursday when students reported for the first day of school, made sure to give credit to other teachers and staff members.
"I don't think I'm naive enough to believe that it was all me. I think there are some amazing teachers," Netzer said. "The fourth-grade teachers are amazing and they did a great job with them, and the third-grader teachers and the second-grade teachers. I really think that it was a team effort. I think the specialists are amazing here, and they were the ones that did a great job with helping those low kids really bring their grades up."
According to Re-4 district assessment coordinator Amy Heinsma, having an entire class score proficient and advanced on a particular subject has not happened since the district started tracking classroom level data three years ago.
"I don't recall seeing it in the last five years since I've been here," Heinsma said. "If kids are reading a lot and know that reading is important, they're going to be successful. We always want to celebrate successes of teachers and make sure they know they're doing a great job."
Netzer, who taught third grade for two years at Mountain View Elementary School before transferring to Range View, said he had no magic potion for his reading students.
"We read a lot. It sounds elementary, but I have my kids reading a ton," Netzer said. "There is an author that I've read, his name is Mike Schmoker, and he talks about that if you want kids to be good readers you have them reading a lot. If you want to be a good writer, you write a lot. It seems really basic, but I guess that's what I was trying to do last year. I really spent a lot of time with my kids having them reading a lot of books, discussing it in small groups and just giving them a lot of time to read that was uninterrupted."
Range View's fifth-graders scored 86 percent proficient and advanced to lead the district's fifth-graders in reading.
"There are just amazing teachers out here. The district has amazing teachers, and this school is phenomenal," Netzer said.

Erie City Mission to operate shelter for women
The Erie City Mission has provided emergency shelter and transitional living housing for men for decades.
The longtime Christian social outreach program will soon be doing the same for local women.
The City Mission has purchased property on Erie's westside that it will use as a shelter and transitional living quarters for single women beginning in March, said the Rev. Rick Crocker, the organization's executive director.
Crocker said the City Mission will train its staff and recruit new staff in preparation for the shelter's opening in early 2014.
"Most people in Erie recognize the wonderful work we provide to men. We're delighted to take hold of this opportunity, and to be able to branch out and provide a similar service for women," Crocker said.

Skip to comments.Joe Bastardi Forecasts Irene To Be A Top Mid Atlantic Hurricane (More Westerly Track?)
Posted on 08/25/2011 6:40:54 AM PDT by Rational Thought
WeatherBELL Analytics Meteorologist Joe Bastardi predicts Irene to be a cross between Hazel and the Mid Atlantic Hurricane of 1821. This will make Irene a top three hurricane since 1800.
(Excerpt) Read more at weatherbell.com ...
Will be interesting to see how closely Irene follows the computer models.
I watch the other weather channel with Peter Prickilini.
His cousin is Dick Doucherelli.
if it can get on land earlier and lose some steam, it may just start to fizzle as it heads north.
I didn't think it possible, but that site loads slower than FR.
What does this track mean for a storm surge for NYC?
A lot of that depends on when Irene crosses Long Island. I have seen speculation that if it comes in near high tide there could be very serious flooding.
The Cantor-gasm erupts on Cape Cod!!!
Sean has been having him on everyday for updates.That guy knows his stuff.
Joe has been the official Weatherman at the Liberty household ever since he advised people in the track of Katrina to "Run for your lives" (he was at Accuwheather then).
It is the flooding that will do the damage....except along the coast
The Jim Cantore Watch is now focused on Cape Cod...
I've been following the professional chatter on americanwx.com. They have been talking about a major downgrade for a day or two now. They said that you'd know the final nail in the coffin of the storm would be when Cantore showed up on Cape Cod... just sayin.
Guess what (I think)....we just had a 3.4 earthquake in the adirondacks here in NYS...We've had them there before.
I like Joe's graphics. He must be channeling the late Nash Roberts - who did so much with colored chalk and later, dry-erase boards and markers.
Am I reading this right? Bastardi is forecasting Irene to be heading up the Hudson River valley? If so; that is VERY interesting...
Based in Joe's track the Eye looks like it's going straight over my house. WEEEEEEEEE
Earthquakes, hurricanes; are frogs next?
The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!
"Earthquakes, hurricanes; are frogs next? "
No, what happens next is obama comes back from vacation!
I think the locusts will come before the frogs. And after the frogs, a Lady Gaga concert. We're all doomed.
Doomage. It is the end of the world!
So, in my town it's been hail, earthquake, hurricane (plus I stubbed my toe this morning).
I'm in central (M)assachusetts. With a western track we're a lot more screwed because it's worse being on the eastern side of a hurricane because of tornado threats but there is a couple of up sides. Less rain. The more land it travels through the less powerful it will be. Also the more west it goes the less of a tornado threat.
I'll have my generator all ready to go with a line running to the house ready to run my sump pump. If we lose power I will be ready. Sump pump comes first, anything else is secondary. Here in central MA we should be fortunate than most because we had a killer ice storm in December of 2008 that took down all weak trees and branches. They also took down or trimmed any ill trees that didn't come down so my town will fare better than most power wise. I guess we'll see but I'll be ready.
Unfortunately; New England is looking at bad storms today which will further saturate the soil...if Irene is still packing plenty of wind; trees WILL come down. Power crews could be very busy early next week...
While I feel bad for the folks up there, at least America will learn that the South is not the only region with mobile homes.
Joe Bastardi forecaste ping.
Thanks for the ping. I'm glad we got a new emergency generator a few months ago.
If you look at the track of the 1938 hurrican..the so called "Long Island Express"... it was well offshore of the coast, and looked like it would follow the classic clockwise curve up and out to sea..when, all of a sudden..just about when it was passing the Outer Banks, all of a sudden it turned NW..and made a beeline for Long Island..and then RI...one never knows..
Any Rhode Island Freepers here? I feel a little like at heart I am a Rhode Islander as I lived there once and still go back as often as possible. I love the place.
Exactly...look at the last-minute turn Charley made in Florida a few years back...
Do you have any idea , in NYC alone, how many terraces and rooftop gardens there are..I'd say it's in the hundreds of thousand....and all of them have chairs, tables, plants....which can become lethal missiles if not brought inside...
Surprises me, too. After going through Ike, I just want to shake 'em all and tell tehm to hurry up and get ready and be prepared!
I remember the horrific flooding from Agnes, but wind wasn't the big issue with that storm...Irene will be a different story.
Come to think of it...wasn't there a 'It Could Happen Tomorrow' show based on a cat-5 hitting New York? This won't be a cat-5, but it will be nasty if it hits NY...a track just west of the city would be the worse-case scenario.
I'm hoping NE PA will be spared.
I hope so, too, angcat!
You will likely get a lot of rain but winds not so much.
That's fine I don't mind the rain.
Likely this storm will pass right over or very close to NYC. It won't be pretty. Don't be in a tunnel or the subway.
Here in central MA it will be the winds and possible tornado activity being on the east side of the hurricane. I would prefer the west side of it and I'd take the rain instead. I'm praying this things passes off the coast or if it does go west it goes WAY west.
I'm in the Merrimack Valley in NE Massachusetts and we're dug in. My mom tells awful stories about the Hurricane of '38 and I'd rather not have my own tales to tell. But if it's my turn to write the stories, then so be it.
Generator, with extra gas — check. Chainsaw, with gas pre-mixed — check. Food — lots of it. Water — stockpiled. Charcoal for the barbecue — check. Batteries in the radio and kerosene in the lanterns — check. Extra bedding for friends and family who might need shelter — check. Neighbor's scary-ass tree leaning over my house — well, umm.
OK, all set. Bring it on!
This is New England, kiddies. We're supposed to be leathery old yankees who can ride out any-damn-thing, from the redcoats to hurricanes to nor'easters.
Irene ... bring your best, bitch.

text: Ampio Pharma's other product candidates include, Zertane, a proposed treatment for life-long premature ejaculation, and Ampion for chronic inflammation.Zertane is a specific dose, orally disintegrating tablet formulation of well-known centrally acting opioid pain killer tramadol HCl. This repurposed oral drug is said to have an excellent safety record established during 30 years of human use for other medical indications.Zertane has already successfully completed phase III studies in Europe. The drug candidate has 30 use patents issued worldwide. The company is in the process of preparing its regulatory dossier for Zertane and expects to submit the dossier to Therapeutic Goods Administration, the Australian regulatory authority, in late 2012.During a pre-IND meeting held in June, the company received clear guidance from the FDA for two concurrent pivotal U.S. trials necessary for approval of Zertane to treat premature ejaculation under the 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway.The company plans to commence the pivotal Zertane trials by the end of this year.No drug has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of premature ejaculation. Johnson & Johnson's (JNJ) Priligy, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, or SSRI, for treatment of premature ejaculation is approved for sale in Finland, Sweden, Austria, Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal and the UK.Another drug candidate of Ampio Pharma which merits mention is Zertane-ED, a combination product to treat both premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction. As a first step for the clinical study of Zertane-ED, Ampio Pharma has contracted with Bangalore, India-based Syngene to begin manufacturing (in compliance with FDA standards) the combo product for the conduct of a phase III trial for premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction in South Korea.The company has a license and development agreement with Daewoong Co. Ltd. to market Zertane in South Korea for the treatment of premature ejaculation and for Zertane-ED to be developed for erectile dysfunction.

"Federation Comics Group: 15 cents"
Artist Juan Ortiz has gone back to all eighty episodes of the original Star Trek series and created retro posters/book covers for each of them. He naturally has a full color book available for purchase, but you can also browse through them on his tumblr, which also contains posters for all twenty-two episodes of the animated series.
"Unbelievable. Do you recognize those uniforms?"
Artist Dusty Abell has created a massive poster featuring "at least one, sometimes more, character, entity, starship or structure from every episode of [Star Trek: The Original] series." Via io9, who ask: How many characters can you name? Stumped? Here's a key of all 123! [more inside]

Mr. Spock's Nudes
Mr. Spock's Nudes David Bowman talks to 72-year-old Leonard Nimoy about Leonard Cohen's music, the famous Vulcan hand sign, and his movie career, but especially about his new book of female nude photographs, and how they relate to the Kabbalistic idea of Shekhinah. Nimoy comes across as more than a little flaky (but that's nothing new); turns out he can also be thoughtful, perceptive, and dryly funny.

The Crusade of the Excelsiorby Bret Harte
Excerpt: . . . CHAPTER XI. THE CAPTAIN FOLLOWS HIS SHIP. When Padre Esteban had finished reading the document he laid it down and fixed his eyes on the young man. Hurlstone met his look with a glance of impatient disdain. "What have you to say to this?" asked the ecclesiastic, a little impressed by his manner. "That as far as it concerns myself it is a farrago of absurdity. If I were the person described there, why should I have sought you with what you call a lie of 'sentimental passion, ' when I could have claimed protection openly with my SISTER PATRIOT," he added, with a bitter laugh. "Because you did not know THEN the sympathy of the people nor the decision of the Council," said the priest. "But I know it NOW, and I refuse to accept it. " "You refuse
Devil's Fordby Bret Harte
Two young women, the daughters of an engineer who has secretly squandered the family finances in ill-advised mining schemes in Devil's Ford, find themselves romanced by two stockholders, who seek to keep the women ignorant of their father's failure . . . and end up nearly destroying themselves in the process.
A Drift from Redwood Campby Bret Harte
They had all known him as a shiftless, worthless creature. From the time he first entered Redwood Camp, carrying his entire effects in a red handkerchief on the end of a long-handled shovel, until he lazily drifted out of it on a plank in the terrible inundation of '56, they never expected anything better of him. <P> <P> In a community of strong men with sullen virtues and charmingly fascinating vices, he was tolerated as possessing neither--not even rising by any dominant human weakness or ludicrous quality to the importance of a butt. In the dramatis personae of Redwood Camp he was a simple "super"--who had only passive, speechless roles in those fierce dramas that were sometimes unrolled beneath its green-curtained pines.
Drift from Two Shoresby Bret Harte
The man on the beach.--Two saints of the foothills.--Jinny.--Roger Catron's friend.--Who was my quiet friend?--A ghost of the Sierras.--The hoodlum band (a condensed novel)--The man whose yoke was not easy.--My friend, the tramp.--The man from Solano.--The office seeker.--A sleeping-car experience.--Five o'clock in the morning.--With the entrées
A First Family of Tasajaraby Bret Harte
Classic western novel. "It blows," said Joe Wingate. As if to accent the words of the speaker a heavy gust of wind at that moment shook the long light wooden structure which served as the general store of Sidon settlement, in Contra Costa. <P> <P> Even after it had passed a prolonged whistle came through the keyhole, sides, and openings of the closed glass front doors, that served equally for windows, and filled the canvas ceiling which hid the roof above like a bellying sail. A wave of enthusiastic emotion seemed to be communicated to a line of straw hats and sou-westers suspended from a cross-beam, and swung them with every appearance of festive rejoicing, while a few dusters, overcoats, and "hickory" shirts hanging on the side walls exhibited such marked though idiotic animation that it had the effect of a satirical comment on the lazy, purposeless figures of the four living inmates of the store.
Legends and Talesby Bret Harte
pubOne. info present you this new edition. The cautious reader will detect a lack of authenticity in the following pages. I am not a cautious reader myself, yet I confess with some concern to the absence of much documentary evidence in support of the singular incident I am about to relate. Disjointed memoranda, the proceedings of ayuntamientos and early departmental juntas, with other records of a primitive and superstitious people, have been my inadequate authorities. It is but just to state, however, that though this particular story lacks corroboration, in ransacking the Spanish archives of Upper California I have met with many more surprising and incredible stories, attested and supported to a degree that would have placed this legend beyond a cavil or doubt. I have, also, never lost faith in the legend myself, and in so doing have profited much from the examples of divers grant-claimants, who have often jostled me in their more practical researches, and who have my sincere sympathy at the scepticism of a modern hard-headed and practical world.
The Luck of Roaring Camp and Other Short Storiesby Bret Harte
In 1870, the young San Francisco-based writer and editor Bret Harte (1836-1902) first compiled a single-volume edition of his rousing stories of life in the Wild West. Entitled The Luck of Roaring Camp, and Other Sketches, the book propelled him almost overnight from local celebrity to American literary lion. Four of the most famous of those tales are included in this collection: the title story, "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," "Tennessee's Partner," and "M'liss."Additional selections include "A Protégée of Jack Hamlin" and "An Ingénue of the Sierras," both written later in Harte's life and featuring lively casts of colorful characters in settings ranging from a stagecoach to a Sacramento River steamer. They display the author's enthralling storytelling style at full strength - crisply observant, rich in ironic humor, and offering an engaging mix of sentiment and wit. Harte's style exercised a deep influence on the American short story genre and set a future course for writers of Western fiction, including Owen Wister and Zane Grey.
The Luck of Roaring Camp and Other Talesby Bret Harte
The defining stories from one of America's great wits In the mid-nineteenth century, the Wild West grabbed ahold of American consciousness and never let go. With the discovery of gold, all eyes and wagons turned westward. This collection of stories brings readers back to the American frontier. In "The Luck of Roaring Camp," when a Native American woman dies in childbirth, the miners take it upon themselves to raise the child. Naming the baby Luck, the miners learn more about responsibility and class through raising the boy than they have through anything else in their lives. Other stories in the collection include classic prospecting-set short stories such as "Tennessee's Partner" and "The Outcasts of Poker Flat" and the short novels "Muck-a-Muck" and "Selina Sedilia." In this timeless collection, Bret Harte has captured the California gold rush as no other writer could. This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.
The Luck of Roaring Camp and Other Writingsby Bret Harte Gary Scharnhorst
Bret Harte was at the forefront of western American literature, paving the way for other writers, including Mark Twain. For the first time in one volume, The Luck of Roaring Camp and Other Writings brings together not only Harte's best-known pieces including "The Luck of Roaring Camp" and "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," but also the original transcription of the famous 1882 essay "The Argonauts of '49" as well as a selection of his poetry, lesser-known essays, and three of his Condensed Novels-parodies of James Fenimore Cooper, Charles Dickens, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. .

Caro-Kann: Panov-Botvinnik Attack
1. It's super-complicated.
2. It's super-complicated.
It depends on the Beginner. I started out in 1996 with a good understanding of the Queen's Gambit, but most others can't handle such positional openings at the start. For me, I had trouble with the Ruy Lopez.
And Chessteenager, it's "Beginners", NOT "Begginers". You need to work on your spelling before worrying about non-important stuff like chess.
I agree with the comment by:"ThrillerFan".
The Parham is a pain for beginners until they learn how to handle it.
What about the Murphy opening for beginners?
4 move checkmate.
When I started, I had a hard time whenever anyone didn't do e4 or prevented me from doing e5 if I played black, and I as white, I hated both e5 and c5 as black's second move.
The chase variation of the Alejhine as Black
The sicilian as white
what does any beginner like for the other person to play, other than what allows yourself to play any moves you want to?
Kings gambit as white. If they accept and dont know what todo afterwards the game can be over very quickly.
Sicllian Dragon and Nadjorf because beginners memorise lines rather than understanding chess.
Easily the worst.

Skip to comments.Wanted: short, fat white man to succeed Barack Obama
Posted on 03/07/2010 10:22:07 PM PST by Schnucki
As the glamour of Barack Obama fades, Americans are likely to turn to entirely different presidential candidates next time, argues Toby Harnden in Washington.
You could call it the revenge of the ugly white guys. After electing a handsome sleek, biracial - and untested - man as President last time, Americans may well be ready for something entirely different in 2012.
Remember that you heard it here first: make way for the short, pudgy, balding white fellow who's been there and got the scars - and the results - to prove it.
In many respects, Barack Obama was the ultimate candidate for the television age. He looked fantastic and sounded wonderful. He soared above politics and made people feel better about themselves.
Ability to get things done? Track record? Such petty considerations seemed beside the point in 2008 for Obama was the very culmination of history. It was almost as if the then Senator for Illinois symbolised the end of politics, the point at which the perfect candidate drew a line under grubby partisanship.
Now, Americans have woken up from that dream and are living with the hangover. Neither history nor politics ended when Obama's ascended to the Oval Office. The recession is biting, unemployment is still hovering just below 10 per cent, the deficit is soaring and there is still gridlock in Washington.
Having elected two Senators as President and Vice-President for the first time since 1960, Americans are likely to look once again towards the more traditional stable for commanders-in-chief - the governor's mansions.
As the Republican challengers to Obama begin to prepare the ground for their 2012 runs, two hitherto unlikely potential candidates are gaining support among party insiders.
Before Obama, neither would have had a prayer. Mitch Daniels, described by the "Washington Post" as Indiana's "diminutive
(Excerpt) Read more at telegraph.co.uk ...
I don't like how they're bringing race into this. Americans are fed up with Obama's socialist policies and the unbecoming attitude displayed by him, those in his administration, and his biggest allies in Congress-> NOT the color of his skin.
I'd take the Hunchback of Notre Dame if he was a true conservative.
I'd settle for a cute, married Alaskan chick.
Paging Dick Cheney.
Yep. The "not-0bama" isn't a short, fat, white male. It isn't even a male.
Yes; because skin tone, BMI, and follicle count are the truly momentous attributes of they guy we have as our president.
I'm with you, Joe. A female with executive experience and a track record of going after dorruption regardless of party affiliation.
I don't care how many scars or how much hair the next president has. Just slash the darned federal spending, and bring down the deficits, and kill 0bamacare if it passes this year.
You rang?
ummm... that would be "corruption". Perhaps if I used spell check...
This is sorta the way I was thinking when Dole was running against Clinton. I thought it would be ironic if the first baby boomer prez was displaced by a severely wounded WWII vet. Of course Dole did not run a good campaign, did not run on solid conservative planks, and he did not send the boy willie packing.
Of course Dole, even old, was more handsome than Clinton when viewed objectively.
Obama is just a victim of Affirmative Action
>> I dont like how theyre bringing race into this.
Actually, none of the physical attributes belong.
Somebody once said something about "the content of one's character". I wonder who that was...
But for the experience, I guess I qualify.
Now that I'd enjoy! Sarah and Rush!
Handsome? Is this satire?
Obama only looks and sounds good if you are in love with him.
But ANYTHING to keep that unscrupulous, unctuous back-stabbing bastard Romney off the ticket.
Indeed! Well said Gene Eric.
(great tagline by the way LoL about "hope redistribution, here's your change" one of the more clever ones I've seen!)
>To wake up to President Limbaugh?
On the Chaos alone it would be amusing to have Pr. Limbaugh. Other than that though, I think he is a well thought man who would have knowledgeable [instead of political] advisers and would actually listen to them.
Glenn Beck?
"He looked fantastic and sounded wonderful"
Are my eyes *and* ears failing me?!?
I *never* thought either thing about him.
In fact, I couldn't [and still can't] bear to look at or listen to him because my instincts screamed out "Pure evil!".
Yup, a patriot, a woman...with common sense values...would be "entirely different".
And hung up.
I'd elect Clarence Thomas.
He's not a short pale white guy.
He's also not a Moslem communist traitor.
Your wish is my command...
0bama is just Henry Higgin's Eliza Doolittle ala My Fair Lady, as directed by Bill Ayers and Rahm Emanuel, with special credits to the symbiotic groupthink of academia and the news media.
The opposite of 0bama is a leader with substance and character. Race and Gender being no factor in the equation.
"Wanted: short, fat white man to succeed Barack Obama"
It's not the looks, MORON - it's the values!!
I guess since the MSM started calling Michelle Obama "attractive"...
Well, "handsome" is this writer's opinion, IMO, Obanga is ugly, his soul is ugly, & it shows in his face! He turns my stomach to watch him (so I don't)!
How about a capitalist loving Christian who loves AMERICA?
Instead of this marxist muoosie kenyan?
Yeah, no kidding.
I agree. He's one of the worst public speakers I have ever seen. Even this author, while trying to point out Obama's failures, still falsely lauds Obama's faux speaking abilities.
See now, that was my first thought...
Uhhhh . . . that would be me. I'll throw my fat in the ring.
I'd just be glad for someone who is not an Ivy League edumacated lawyer, and also not Romney or Hukleberry.
"short" - check
"pudgy" - 5' 8", 205 lbs - check
"balding" - nope, I still have most of my (white) hair
"Been there, scars" - check
"results" - maybe, maybe not?
Looks like I'll have to give the next Presidential campaign a pass.
Besides, I'm still working on my campaign to the first short, fat, out of shape, totally unskilled, token white NBA player. If a team will hire me and the league will "affirm" me, then I'll try to waddle down the court as fast as possible to create some action. Besides, the money in the NBA is a whole lot better than Presidential salary!
Finally, as the man said, the only one you should trust with that much power is someone who would have to be drug in, kicking & screaming!
Thanks - stole that - named it "Obama Bites!" ;-)
After electing a sleek, biracial - and untested - man as President last time is another reason why nobody under 21 should be able to vote except those in the armed forces.The young and dumb vote only on looks and BS not brains.
Oh brother where art thou?
Good. Spread his ugly mug around.

This review is from: ASUS Laptop U46ERF-BAL7-B Intel Core i7 2640M (2.80 GHz) 8 GB Memory 750 GB HDD Intel HD Graphics 3000 14.0" Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit
Pros: Fast machine, hardly overheats, compact and excellent external design. I have been using this laptop mainly for work (recording engineer) and random internet use (mainly Netflix). It has an incredibly short boot up time, have only had it screen lock once (more on that in cons), no BSoD or other acronyms of destruction, and it didn't come with a lot of shovelware for being a refurbish.
Cons: Two main cons I have are it's volume and the one crash issue I had with it. The volume issue is simple to fix, headphones or speakers, it's just ridiculously quiet in my opinion. The screen lock issue came from my first test run with some recording software and some of it's native VSTs, namely FL Studio. Most likely an FL Studio issue, but still worth mentioning because I have never had it happen on any other rig or laptop.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Great case, first desktop for me in 5 years and this case helped. Haven't had any problems with heat and I live in a zone that gets above 100-110 degrees F sometimes. It's close to beautiful and has built in features I love, like the front panel Firewire.
Cons: Not really a con, but I got this as a gift and ended up with only 4 hard drive screws and I can't seem to find the right type online as they are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long, really annoying.
Other Thoughts: I need more screws.READ FULL REVIEW

Germanicopolis (Bithynia)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Germanicopolis (Greek: Γερμανικόπολις) (not to be confused with Caesarea Germanica which was a different town altogether), was an ancient town in Bithynia, on the Gelbes river,[1] not far from Prusa (modern Bursa in Turkey). In earlier times it was called Helge, Helgas or Booscoete (Βοὸς κοίτη), Plin. v. 40. Modern scholars locate the town at the village of Tahtalı (40°10′N 28°53′E / 40.167°N 28.883°ECoordinates: 40°10′N 28°53′E / 40.167°N 28.883°E).

In case you missed my original four-mock mock mraft, here is another chance to get my opinion of what the Steelers are going to do when they select the new group of Steelers starting April 26th.
Unlike that one, where I gave four different scenarios, in real life, there is only one chance in each round. So instead of four, here is one complete one.
In this mock, I have addressed the Mike Wallace situation, with him leaving via free agency. Yes, that may be painful for Steelers Nation to swallow, but the reality is, he may be gone.
Why not address that in this mock, if for nothing else but to make it more interesting.

At first glance it would seem to be something one would find in some photoshop gallery. But then one finds out that she has been forced to justify her work, for they are pictures of freshly killed animals. Much to the dislike of some craigslistians. With the growing uproar, there is even a petition going around (though petitions like that are hardly rare.) Is this a work of someone seeking attention through offending people? Or someone unable to use photoshop? Whatever the case, I'm sure PETA will join in. . . . Wait, it has.

Some supporters of these two clubs see the fixture as the biggest rivalry of the domestic season, while others place the local derby higher—Manchester City vs. United, Liverpool vs. Everton.
Perhaps so, but there is no denying the depth of feeling that goes into this particular matchup.
Here are four worldwide rivalries which can lay claim to being up there with United-Liverpool in terms of fan feeling, importance or coverage.
