Histology for BCOP
The results of an histological evaluation may be used in several ways depending on the study goals. It may be used to confirm the level of corneal irritation predicted by the opacity and permeability values. In other cases, it is helpful to understand the types of lesions and the depth of injury that a material might induce in the cornea.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- A group seeking to recall Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder says it's ending the effort following Gov. Scott Walker's victory in Wisconsin's recall election.
The group called Michigan Rising announced Thursday it would stop collecting signatures, noting that it was short of its goals. Instead, the group says it will focus on a long-term effort to form a progressive think tank, develop progressive leaders and support current progressive legislators.
The group says results in Wisconsin made it clear how difficult it would be to recall Snyder, a Republican.
Snyder spokeswoman Geralyn Lasher says the administration was fairly certain that interest in the recall effort would wane in part as people saw progress being made in Michigan on improving the economy.
No Michigan governor has ever been recalled from office.

Artist Meghan Coleman has set out to create a new balloon animal or object every day of the year and share them on her blog. See some of her amazing creations in this slideshow.
Day 113 - Camel
Artist Meghan Coleman was looking for a new challenge when she started her blog 365 Days of Balloons in September 2013. With only prior knowledge from a basic balloon animal book, she set out to create a new balloon animal for each day of the year.
Day 6 - Simple Monkey
Now almost four months in Meghan has amassed quite a collection of balloon creations which can be seen in this slideshow. From cute animals to complex holiday creations, she's created a little bit of everything.
Day 7 - Bumble Bee Flowers
A project of this magnitude requires much planning which Meghan does on a weekly or monthly basis. Although she follows a pre-determined schedule, she's also happy to take requests for specific creations.
Day 9 - A Squirrel and his Nut
After Meghan has photographed each balloon and shared it on her blog, she is able to easily find a home for the creation between her friends, family, and co-workers. Following the completion of the 365 days of balloon challenge, Meghan hopes to put together a how-to balloon animal book featuring all of the photos from her works of art.
Day 10 - Dog with Bone

I hope Isiah is able to work something out and gives Pat a job on the bench. Ewing worked hard for the Knicks and he deserves a job as a coach if that is what he wants.
Ewing open to Knick return
Ewing, who completed his first season as an assistant coach with the Houston Rockets, spoke with Knicks president Isiah Thomas three weeks ago about possibly rejoining the Knicks. However, there are no vacancies on Lenny Wilkens' staff, and Ewing is reluctant to take a front-office position with an undefined role. The last thing Ewing wants is to become a glorified mascot for the franchise.
Also, Ewing has said on several occasions that his goal is to become an NBA head coach, and his chances could be hurt if he moves into the management side of basketball.
Coincidentally, a management position in the Knicks' front office became available yesterday when Willis Reed was formally introduced as the new vice president of basketball operations for the New Orleans Hornets. Both John Starks and Earl Monroe are candidates to replace Reed.

I hope Isiah is able to work something out and gives Pat a job on the bench. Ewing worked hard for the Knicks and he deserves a job as a coach if that is what he wants.
I don't like this idea. Ewing isn't anything special just cuz he could play.
Don't get me wrong, Ewing will always be one of my favorite Knicks, but they should just Lenny and his people do their thing. If a assistant coach position opened up then definetely, but don't get rid of anyone just to put Ewing's name on the bench.
ewing will always be a knick. weather or not hes here. but if there is an opening then bring him. dont fire any1
Ewing is one of the greatest centers of all time, and one of the 2 or 3 great centers of his time. I think he would be a great coach/ mentor/ influence to the big men on our team. He could teach them how to play with that fire he came with every night. Because, even though i like the direction the team is going, our big men need to show more heart, and exibit a more dominating will. That was classic pat.[/code]
not of all time but in his time yea.Ewing is one of the greatest centers of all time

All these guys are from the 50 greatest players list, and they are the best of the centers on the list ( look at the stats) . Now pat is better than mabey half of thoes on this list. Pat feard no one on the court. You name 10 centers who were better???
(and if that coment was aimed at me)
I don't do crack just stats.
You can't fight stats. But in the eyes of Knicks fans like myself, he is one of the greatest. I'd love to see him brought back to the organization as one of the coaching staff.
One outta three ain't bad.
wasnt bill walton a power forward? and im pretty sure he was overrated, and i cant stand him as a commentator for nba games, lol
nah bill walton was a center ..... but as a commentator he's hilarious i can't really stand him either but i'd rather him that Walt clyde Frazier.
You can't take Walton too seriously. I find him extremely funny as hell though, as a comentator.
One outta three ain't bad.
ewing may be a great basketball player but i dont think he is that great of a coach. lenny's staff is full of many great people so they dont need him. even though he is one of the best players it doesnt mean he is a great coach.

"It's crushing. I couldn't believe it. I think I stood there stunned," said a woman who we'll call Carol.
Together for 15 years, legally joined in a civil union in August 2012, Carol and her partner were successful, in love, and ready to start a family.
"This is something that we thought really hard about," she said.
They decided to try in vitro fertilization.
Her partner would carry her eggs after doctors removed a large tumor from Carol's uterus.
"Let me check my medical coverage. Great I'm covered," she recalled doing.
In her hand was the HMSA policy saying their civil union, made legal in Hawaii in 2012, meant they qualified for insurance.
"It's right there in black and white for everyone to read," said Carol.
But when their doctor submitted the claim she said it was denied twice.
"Without in vitro, some of these couples would not be able to have a child," said Dr. John Frattarelli who started the Fertility Institute of Hawaii two years ago.
He said he's helped several same sex couples, and despite Hawaii's friendlier laws, he finds the insurance game to be a sticky one.
"There are challenges with every case," he said.
"I had never seen my doctor get so angry," said Carol, shaking her head.
She said despite what appeared to be proof on paper, an HMSA representative said their claim was still denied, adding other problems with their claim, such as Carol being employed by the federal government and because, the representative said, her partner, having to carry Carol's eggs, would be considered a "surrogate."
"She can't be a surrogate if that's my partner," she said.
"(The representative) said, 'you know what, denied. And we're going to change the wording on it,'" said Carol.
It was a final response to a frustrating experience, casting a shadow on their family dream.
"If they're not going to cover it, don't put it in the book," she said.
HMSA sent KITV4 a response Tuesday afternoon saying while state law does provide coverage for in vitro fertilization for many civil union couples those enrolled in the Federal Employee Health Benefit plan are not covered.
They say members can file an appeal if they feel their claim was unfairly denied.
Dr. Frattarelli said, despite the legal challenges, he commends HMSA for being the only Hawaii insurance company to cover IVF for civil unions.

Iowa mayor faces intoxication, interfering charges
The mayor of Independence, Iowa, is facing charges of public intoxication and interfering with the police investigation of a bar fight.
Mayor Carl Scharff tells the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier that he wants to tell his version of Friday's events, but he won't until his lawyer approves.
Prosecutors say Scharff argued with police officers who were investigating the fight, and Scharff is accused of refusing to cooperate with officers.
Scharff says he doesn't think the arrest will affect his ability to serve as mayor.
City Councilman Bob Hill says he thinks it's too soon to judge Scharff's conduct because the legal process is just beginning.

i love when we stare...i do that to!!!! like pp sometimes i cant believe shes mine...i wasnt suppose to have any (according to some quack) but ive had 3
isn't it amazing how babies can hold eye contact? try to keep eyes locked with a grown up for as long as you can with your LO...it is really hard to do without feeling uncomfrotable before too long.
I try to just take it all in and focus on DS as I know that this whole experience will be over before I know it and I will be packing him up and sending him off to college :) and :(
If Logan is really relaxed I like to rub his head and arms, but sometimes that just distracts him so other times I'm just relaxing/dozing as he feeds.
He just started doing the eye contact thing last week but I have to be careful with it. If I even crack the slightest smile he starts laughing and cooing and forgetting that we were BF'ing.
I sing, chat with her, or caress any body part I can reach.
However, my lo is 9 1/2 weeks and she still doesn't look at me when she's nursing.
Does everyone's babies look at them?
I love staring into her eyes. I talk to her and tell her how pretty she is and how much I love her or I sing or hum all the songs I remember my mom and grandma singing to me. I only stroke her if I'm trying to get her to sleep cause that does it every time (along her eybrows and down her nose:love .
She doesn't always look at me. If she's not paying attention to me I leave her alone and read or watch tv.
That is all assuming she's not doing her acrobatic routine and trying to stand, sit, or do flips without letting go of my nipple!:D
I remember looking at the posters of nursing babies in my midwife's office while I was pregnant and I couldn't wait to have my baby looking at me like that. Now she does!:love :love :love
Meg: what does your baby look at while she nurses or does she keep her eyes closed? My lo did this for a long time- just dozed while nursing.
Her eyes are not closed.
She just looks to the left of me if she is on the left side or to the right when on the right side.
Am I explaining myself well enough?

For Anna and Vicente Serrano, the melding of cultures and cuisines is an opportunity to bring healthy, flavorful food to the area.
That's what happens at Spanglish, the cozy eatery the two own at the Village at Grand Traverse Commons in Traverse City.
Anna is a native of Traverse City, while her husband Vicente hails from Mexico. The two met at a spa in California, where both worked in the kitchen. Soon their personal and professional lives were intertwined. The two decided to move back to Anna's hometown, and began selling their tamales at the farmers' market at the Village at Grand Traverse Commons.
"When we started, I thought they'd be like an edible business card," said Anna Serrano during a break in the morning business. "I was surprised what a big deal they were. We sold more than I ever thought we would."
How much more? Try 300 tamales and 40 pounds of their homemade salsa.
That much business meant they were outgrowing their prep space at the Children's House, so they began looking for a more permanent location. Given their presence at the Village, the Serranos approached the Minervini Group about permanently locating there. They eventually opened at 1333 Yellow Drive, the former location of the Underground Cheesecake Company, which moved its entire operation to the next building back.
"The tamales were so popular, we already had a good following," said Serrano.
Opening their own restaurant gave the Serranos a chance to showcase more than just their salsa and tamales. Spanglish's menu includes tacos, burritos, quesadillas, tostados, and daily specials, along with sides like rice, beans, guacamole, even polvorones (orange shortbread cookies).
One of the most interesting things about the menu is the absence of things like lettuce and yellow cheese. In their place are shredded cabbage and feta cheese, respectively. Anna Serrano says those choices were made with both healthiness and flavor in mind.
For those who might decry those choices as less than traditional, Serrano has a simple rejoinder: "It's not Mexican, it's Spanglish." Indeed, their web site even states "Traditional Mexican Food is our starting point but we will bend the rules to make a recipe better."
Part of that impetus comes from the duo's desire to make their food not only tasty but healthful. To that end, not only did they substitute cabbage for lettuce, but they use less oil than many Mexican-themed restaurants.
They also use as much local and regional foods as possible. That includes local cabbage, tortillas and chips from a supplier in Grand Rapids, peppers and potatoes from Michigan, even locally sourcing their paper products.
In pursuit of freshness and flavor, the Serranos prepare much of their food and ingredients in-house. In addition to their own salsa, they grind their own spices, and even use Michigan pork to make their own sausage.
The two opened the restaurant in late June this past year. Serrano says business was excellent during the summer, and despite the expected seasonal fall-off, continues to be strong. One of the reasons is a robust take-out business. "We only have 18 seats, so we need to do take-out. With the proximity to Munson and TBAISD, a lot of people call in their orders and walk from work and pick them up," Serrano said.
Another part of their business is catering.
Serrano says they can provide food for small groups that is casual and fun, with a few options not on the regular menu.
While their burritos, tacos and tamales are full of ground beef and pork, Spanglish also offers vegetarian versions. That way they hope to provide for both meat lovers and herbivores.
"We have lots of meat-eaters and lots of vegetarians," Serrano said. "There's no lard in the beans or chicken stock in the rice."
Simple, healthful food that is colorful and tasty. What's not to like?
Spanglish is open 9 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Now offering breakfast burritos, filled with sausage, eggs, cheese and potatoes. They can make them sans sausage, or even a vegan version with onions, potatoes, poblanos, avocados and corn.
Online, go to www.SpanglishTC.com or visit its Facebook page. Call 943-1453 for more information or to order.
DON'T MISS: The signature tamales come in four versions: Roasted pork with tomatillo, chicken with a mild red chili sauce, and two vegetarian options. Three Sisters includes butternut squash, corn, beans and red bell pepper, while New World is zucchini, roasted tomatoes, potatoes, onions, and toasted pumpkin seeds.
PRICES: Tamales are $3, tacos $9 for three, burritos $6 and $9, two tostados for $6.50.

Steve Jobs ponders a puzzling audience question.

Apple's CEO leaves no stone unturned in a candid interview
Tonight at the eight annual
All Things Digital
conference (D8 for short) a frequent guest -- Apple CEO, co-founder and "supreme leader" (according to
All Things Digital
) Steve Jobs -- popped and let loose on a variety of topics during an interview with Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher (the exchange was liveblogged by
Fresh out the gates, Jobs ripped into Adobe on the
topic of Flash
. He said, "Flash looks like it had its day but it's waning, and HTML5 looks like it's coming up. There's no smartphone shipping with Flash."
Jobs not only yet again compared Flash to deceased formats like the 3 and 1/2 inch floppy disk and Hyper Card, but also claims that he's the one being victimized. He alluded to his recent
open letter/rant against Flash
, stating, "We told Adobe to show us something better, and they never did. It wasn't until we shipped the iPad that Adobe started to raise a stink about it. We weren't trying to have a fight, we just decided to not use one of their products. They made a big deal of it -- that's why I wrote that letter. I said enough is enough, we're tired of these guys trashing us."
The interview then took a turn into a discussion about
, and the
infamous lost iPhone prototype
. On this Jobs comments, "Well a guy... who can say if he's a journalist... I can tell you what I do know, though. To make a product you need to test it. You have to carry them outside. One of our employees was carrying one. There's a debate about whether he left it in a bar, or it was stolen out of his bag. The person who found it tried to sell it, they called
, they called
"The person who took the phone plugged it into his roommates computer. And this guy was
trying to destroy evidence
... and his roommate called the police. So this is a story that's amazing -- it's got theft, it's got buying stolen property, it's got extortion, I'm sure there's some sex in there."
And towards the end of his talk he commented, "You know, when this whole thing with
happened, I got advice from people who said 'you gotta just let it slide, you shouldn't go after a journalist just because they bought stolen property and tried to extort you.' And I thought deeply about this, and I concluded the worst thing that could happen is if we change our core values and let it slide. I can't do that. I'd rather quit."
Those two controversial topics weren't the only ones hit on during this barn-burner interview, though. Jobs was questioned on the topic of Foxconn where Apple is reportedly
subsidizing a pay raise
for its overworked employees after a
string of 11 suicides
, several of which occurred over the last couple weeks. Jobs remarks, "We are all over this. Foxconn is not a sweatshop."
He says that the suicides are somewhat like a string of suicides that occurred in his home town of Palo Alto. He comments, "The rate is under what the US rate is, but it's still troubling. We had this in my hometown of Palo Alto, copy cat suicides. We're over there trying to understand this. It's a difficult situation."
Jobs says that one morning he just woke up and heard about Android. When asked if he felt betrayed, though, he quipped, "My sex life is pretty good."
But when asked about his search plans, there was little humor in his unequivocal response. He stated, "We have no plans to go into the search business. We don't care about it -- other people do it well."
On the topic of the iPhone itself Jobs says that AT&T is doing a good job
handling its loads of traffic
, but complains that they
have issues."
He failed to elaborate further on what these "issues" were, but he did comment that there might be advantages to going with a second carrier in the U.S. But he said he couldn't talk about that at this time.
Those were among the highlights in what was one of the most candid, at times hilarious, and overall hard-hitting interviews in recent history. A full video will be linked here, courtesy of
All Things Digital
, once it gets posted.
"We shipped it on Saturday. Then on Sunday, we rested." -- Steve Jobs on the iPad launch

Sustainability refers to the capacity of a society to meet current needs without degrading the ecological, social, and economic systems on which the society will rely for meeting future needs. Established in 1999, the Sustainability and Environmental Studies (SENS) Program is an important part of Berea College's efforts to develop a sustainable campus.
SENS is an interdisciplinary academic program centered on ecological design – the purposeful integration of human actions with the structures and functions of the natural world. The goal of SENS is to help its students acquire the knowledge and practical skills necessary to prosper in a world that faces unprecedented threats to environmental and economic well-being, while contributing to the development of resilient communities and a sustainable society.
SENS courses emphasize experiential learning, and the inclusion administratively of SENS in Division II facilitates close collaboration with other "hands on" programs including Agriculture and Natural Resources, Technology and Industrial Arts, Business, and Computer Science. Serving as a living laboratory for teaching and research, the SENS House Complex – 1.5 acres within the Berea College Ecovillage – includes an ecologically-designed residence (SENS House), an aquaponics facility, the Natural Building Shelter, edible landscapes, and a permaculture food forest. The nine students in the SENS labor program operate and maintain these facilities and play a key role in their use for teaching and outreach.
Other College assets including the College farm and gardens, and the 8000 acres of College forest with several reservoirs, ponds, and streams, serve as ecological laboratories for SENS classes, internships and projects. The landscapes and human communities of Appalachia offer endless opportunities for student engagement in efforts to increase community resilience, and the on-going "greening" of the Berea campus provides another set of experiential learning opportunities.
Faculty from a variety of disciplines in the Humanities, Social Sciences and Sciences teach courses that allow students to pursue their particular interests within the broad field of Sustainability and Environmental Studies. On- and off-campus internships move students out of the classroom and into the real world of complex problems and solutions. Ultimately, the SENS Program attempts to convey to all members of the campus community the immediacy and magnitude of the ecological, economic, and social threats facing our society, and to engage them as active participants in the transition of our campus, community and society to sustainability.

You can thank its 800-fill goose down insulation paired with a water-resistant Pertex outer fabric for its warmth, the spunky colors (bright pink, citrusy orange, and turquoise), slightly longer length, and hand gaiters with thumb loops for its panache. Ladies will also appreciate the mini-powder skirt, which keeps the jacket in place and hits just below the hips. [$500; Mammut.ch] — Sam Berman, contributing editor

Hawaii's homeless veterans will get two grants from the U.S. Department of Labor totaling $500,000 for job training.
The Department of Labor has awarded 90 grants totaling more than $20 million to fund job training and support services that will help more than 11,000 veterans across the country succeed in civilian careers.
The grants are being awarded through the department's Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program.
"Americans who have served their country should not find themselves without a home," said Secretary of Labor Hilda L. Solis. "The grants will help these heroes find good jobs and take us one step closer to the goal of ending veteran homelessness altogether."
The United States Veterans Initiative in Kapolei was awarded $200,000. The Mental Health Association in Hawaii in Honolulu was awarded $300,000.
The grants announced are second- and third-year awards to state and local workforce investment boards, local public agencies and nonprofit organizations -- including faith-based and community organizations -- that demonstrated satisfactory performance during the past year.
Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program grants provide occupational, classroom and on-the-job training, as well as job search and placement assistance, including follow-up services. Grantees are expected to maximize available assistance and find good jobs for veterans by coordinating efforts and resources with the U.S. departments of Veterans Affairs, Housing and Urban Development, and Health and Human Services, as well as other national, state and local agencies in accordance with the VA's five-year plan to end homelessness for veterans and their families.
In June, Secretary Solis announced the award of 64 grants through the Homeless Veterans Reintegration Program. Those grants -- which are separate from the 90 receiving funds today -- are first-year awards totaling more than $15 million and aimed at providing about 8,600 homeless veterans nationwide with job training.

Judge Schick sworn in; From legal aid to the bench
January 2, 2013 —
The swearing in of Judge Stephen Schick offered a look back at 30 years of jurisprudence in Sullivan County. Schick, who had served as executive director of Sullivan County Legal Aid and as a legal aid attorney, was sworn into office on December 29, at the county court house in Monticello. He is now New York State Supreme Court Justice for the Third Judicial District, which serves Sullivan County, as well as Ulster, Green, Albany, Schoharie, Rensselaer and Columbia counties.
Judge Frank LaBuda presided over the ceremony as judges Mark Meddaugh, Michael McGuire, Anthony Kane and Kevin Cahill looked on. LaBuda congratulated Schick for winning the election so decisively, but added that now Schick would be divorced from politics. He said, "The politics are over once you are elected. It's unfortunate our friends in Washington can't adopt the same philosophy."
In offering advice to Schick, LaBuda quoted from the oath given to grand jurors, which reads, in part, "You shall make no decision from envy, hatred or malice, nor shall you avoid any decision because of fear, favor, affection, or reward, or hope thereof."
Former, longtime district attorney Steven Lungen also spoke, who, being the top prosecutor in the state, worked opposite Schick to resolve some 3,000 cases a year. He said the two worked on between 30 and 35 murder cases, and Schick always provided vigorous defense for his clients, even though often times the clients did not appreciate it.
Lungen said that Schick "proved himself as an excellent trial attorney. But sometimes we would have a case where a defendant made a confession, we had DNA evidence, we had a bunch of eyewitnesses of the crime, but it was Schick's fault that he couldn't get them off, not their fault that they did it in front of an audience and left all this evidence behind."
Schick accepted the judgeship in honor of all of the legal aid professionals working in Sullivan and beyond, knowing that they are often not appreciated by society. He also got a laugh at the expense of his former judicial sparring partner, Lungen.
Looking around the courtroom, he said he felt at home there. He said, "In the past 35 years, I've probably spent more waking hours in this building than in my own home." He then looked and Lungen and added, "because of listening to Steve Lungen's summations I probably spent more non-waking hours here, too."

Building a Hybrid Machine Translation System for Translating from English into Persian
The incredible speed of contemporary modern world has made using machine translation/ MT an essential need. This paper aims at describing a hybrid machine translation system conducted for translation of some simple declarative English sentences into Persian. It is called a hybrid machine translation system because it employs a combination of both rule-based approaches and corpus-based approaches. The results of the research suggest that the given machine translation system produces more natural sentences which are compatible with Persian word order.

RUSH: We're dedicating today's program to white construction workers, the white construction workers that we learned yesterday Robert B. Reichhhh said he doesn't want to receive any of the bailout money to hire infrastructure workers.
JOHNNY DONOVAN: Live from the Southern Command in sunny south Florida via New York City, it's Open Line Friday!
RUSH: He said he has got nothing against white construction workers, but said he wants to hire minorities and stuff. It's strange he didn't talk about qualifications to do infrastructure work. He talked about groups. Anyway, greetings, my friends, it's Open Line Friday, and when we go to the phones the program content is all yours. You know the rules by now. Monday through Thursday we only talk about what I care about, but on Friday, I'll fake it, if I don't care about it and you want to talk about it. 800-282-2882. The e-mail address is email@example.com.
I don't know if we could hire Larry King's son, Cannon, eight years old. Larry King said on CNN a couple nights ago that his son told him that black is in and Larry King's son said he wished he was black, putting Bob Woodward in a very nervous position, asking Woodward what he thought of that. Woodward said, (paraphrasing) "Gee, am I back in the hospital talking to Bill Casey here?" Who was in a coma at the time. At any rate, I don't know that we want to put Cannon King on a construction crew. We might want to hire him here is an intern so he can learn broadcasting. 800-282-2882 if you want to be on the program again, folks. All right.
Shall we review the week? Speaking honestly, I mean look, people are misunderstanding this, Snerdley got a couple calls from some of his buddies last night, "What did your boss mean, he wants the president to fail?" I remain dumbfounded at the high degree, the high level of ignorance that there is out there. If it took a Drive-By reporter, Jim VandeHei of The Politico to finally understand this and to try to get the Drive-Bys up to speed on all this. But I just want to say, folks, look I support Obama. I just don't support his policies. I support our president, like I have supported all presidents. I just don't support Obama's policies. I don't support the nationalization of the banks, which has happened. I don't support the nationalization of the auto companies. I don't support the nationalization of the mortgage business. I don't like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd running things. And I don't want that to continue. But I support our president. I'm like anybody else, I support the president. I just don't support the policies.
Now, let's take a look at the week. Not a good week, folks, looking at this objectively and honestly, as one who supports the president, who wants him to be well and wants him to do well. A lot of omens this week, folks. You know, if I were in the Obama administration, I would be a little concerned. First off, the oath was botched. I don't care who botched it, but that doesn't happen. The oaf of office was botched. The immaculation address by Obama was a dud, a flat-out dud. In fact, Charles Krauthammer, a great piece today in the Washington Post. And Mr. Krauthammer was one of the conservatives who dined with Obama at George Will's home in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Krauthammer says it was so bad and so flat and so unlike Obama that he wonders if Obama did it on purpose. He wonders if Obama botched this speech on purpose to lower expectations, knowing full well that he can't hit grand slams all the time. I don't know about that because to me this is not the kind of occasion where you want to leave your cult followers clueless as to when to applaud and cheer.
RUSH: But moving on, okay, the oath of office was botched, the immaculation speech was a dud, the immaculation benediction by the Reverend Lowery was racist. Yesterday, when reading and announcing and signing the executive orders, he had to ask Greg Craig -- should we start calling this guy President Craig? He had to ask Greg Craig to fill in the blanks here because it looked like he didn't understand and couldn't explain the executive orders to the country without any help. (doing Obama impression) "We're going to do this and, uh, what comes next here, Greg? Oh, yeah, due process and all that." Then he went down and tried to play hunky-dory with the press in the pressroom last night, and that blew up in his face, 'cause they asked him a substantive question, and he puts his hand on the reporter's shoulder, "Nah-nah-nah-nah, there's gonna be a press conference coming up. You're not supposed to do that now." A photographer bailed him out by asking him if he wanted a retake. "You want to say that again, Mr. President?" Much like Kerry botched an interview with CBS, and CBS said, "You want to do this again?" This is during Kerry's campaign in 2004.
His cabinet nominations. The IRS nominee is a tax cheat. Other nominees are conflict ridden. Other nominees are corrupt. To top it off, this massive porkulus -- it's not a stimulus, it's a porkulus -- this porkulus spending extravaganza has been flatly rejected by the Office of Management and Budget and Wall Street. We had the details yesterday. The Office of Management and Budget says the vast majority of this stuff is not going to get spent 'til after 2010 or 2011, and 2010 just happens to be reelection year. (gasping) This is day three, in addition to that. One of the executive orders that Obama needed help explaining was the announcement of closing Guantanamo Bay in one year, which I deftly reacted to. I have a thriving merchandise business down there. We're coming up with a brand-new line. The government has thrown us a curveball, but we're not just gonna sit here and whine and ask for a bailout, we're going to turn it into a teachable capitalist moment.
But the New York Times has a story today that a Saudi who was imprisoned at Guantanamo was released and has now become a deputy leader of Al-Qaeda's branch office in Yemen. Did you hear me, ladies and gentlemen? Look at me. We released a prisoner from Guantanamo Bay. We have tracked the prisoner. We now know that he's a deputy leader of Al-Qaeda's Yemen branch. Yemen, by the way, is the site of the bombing of the USS Cole. In addition to all that, ladies and gentlemen, we have also learned that the four-piece classical music quartet that played a special composition by John Williams at the immaculation on Tuesday faked it. Milli Vanilli may as well have been on stage. Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman, and others claimed it was too cold, they could not have played this perfectly because it was too cold, so they went to the Marine barracks on Sunday and just in case they recorded a version of it, and because it was too cold they played the fake version, the taped version at the immaculation while pretending to play the real thing.
I have a question. Was anything on Tuesday real? We also have a story that most of the Port-A-Potties were not used, and the guy from the company that supplied a lot of them, Don's Johns -- you wait 'til you hear this story. This guy takes very seriously the Port-A-Potty business. He was very unhappy that so many of them went unused. I saw the, I called it Hurricane Latrina, all the refuge, the refuse and the trash out there. As I say, folks, we're on day three. It appears that the president I support, I just don't support his policies, it appears he doesn't know what he's doing. He hasn't run anything in a long time. He's never really accomplished much. And then the Caroline Kennedy story in New York. Folks, I tell you, this woman -- oh, oh, I forgot, folks, I forgot one other thing. Oh, this is huge. I forgot one other thing. Barack Obama apparently ordered the killing of seven Muslims in Pakistan without a trial. We sent a drone into Pakistan. The drone fired on a pack of terrorists in Pakistan, and it killed seven of them. This under the headline: "Obama Brings Peace to the World." In fact, we have the audio sound bite of this. This morning on CNN's Newsroom, the correspondent Reza Sayah reported live from Islamabad. We put this together as a montage.
SAYAH: Many here in Pakistan were eager to see if these US missile strikes would end under a Barack Obama administration, and we have that answer here in Pakistan on this Friday night and that answer is no. Again, another suspected US missile strike hits a building in Pakistan's tribal region along the Afghan border. Ten people have been killed, according to a local political official and two military officials who asked not to be identified. This week, Barack Obama, America's new president himself said, "In this region Al-Qaeda remains at large, plotting the next attack on US soil." Washington's strategy for the past year has been to hammer these targets with these US missile strikes. They've been very controversial here in Pakistan. They fueled anti-American sentiments.
RUSH: Well, the Bush policy apparently has been renewed and reauthorized by President Obama, which has led to anti-American sentiments. Missiles fired from a suspected US spy plane killed now ten people on the Pakistan side of the Afghan border, a lawless region where Al-Qaeda militants are known to hide out. So I guess what we're to take from this, the Obama administration -- which I support, I just don't support the policies -- it's okay to kill these people, but don't capture 'em. If he doesn't have to answer questions, why should anybody else? Obama signed an executive order this week closing Club Gitmo and the CIA black sites. This is why I'm conflicted, folks, you'll just have to excuse me here, but I thought during the campaign and all during the last four to five years we kept hearing from tenured, respected -- ahem -- members of the Democrat Party that killing Muslims is what caused all of our problems in the Middle East, that and supporting Israel. Killing Muslims made them hate us.
I thought that if we got the hell out that they would start liking us again like during the Carter years. Oh, and that reminds me. Barack Obama has ordered Israel to open the borders to the gazookas! He has told Israel to open the borders so the gazookas from Gaza could get closer to aim their rockets, I guess. It's a mishmash out there. We will sort all of this out, as the program unfolds. By the way, with these ten people killed in Pakistan, did the Israelis release a statement of concern about the innocents killed by the Obama administration? Well, when Israel returns fire, when Israel defends itself from thousands of gazooka rockets, we always issue a statement of concern about the innocent people in the Gaza Strip that were killed by Israeli rockets. So I wonder, has Israel -- somebody look this up -- has Israel released a statement of concern about the innocents killed by the Obama administration in Pakistan?
RUSH: Rich in Waycross, Georgia. We're going to start with you on the phones. It's Open Line Friday. Great to have you here.
CALLER: Yes, sir. How you doing?
RUSH: I'm never better. Thank you, Rich.
CALLER: Outstanding. My only concern was, I hear you this afternoon saying that you support the president but not his policies, which I understand completely what you're saying. It just concerns me that during Bush's term the left were fond of saying they "support the troops but not the war."
RUSH: Right.
CALLER: And my concern is that bloggers and Drive-By will hear you say this and a gotcha moment. I don't feel that you need to qualify your support.
RUSH: Well, it's known. What I'm actually doing is just throwing the absurdity of their statement backed in their pockmarked faces. I illustrate absurdity by being absurd. How can I support the president, but not his policies? That's as silly as saying, "I support the military but not the mission." I'm trying to illustrate how empty their support was and how it was not true. So I'm throwing back one of their own techniques right at them.
CALLER: I see, said the blind man. That makes perfect sense. I appreciate you clarifying.
RUSH: You bet. It's a sad thing I have to clarify it, but I'm happy to clarify it.

Washington Nationals (93-61) vs. Philadelphia Phillies (78-76)
John Lannan (3-0, 4.43) vs. Kyle Kendrick (10-11, 3.89)
Time: 7:05 PM, Citizens Bank Park
Weather: Partly Cloudy, 60
Media: Twitter and Facebook
We're down to just eight games left in the season, and only two on the home schedule. If you haven't been to a game yet, now is the time. Just a wear a jacket, it's getting chilly.
It's another lefty on the mound for the Nationals, John Lannan. You know him well. He's plunked a Phillie or two over the years and has turned into the replacement for a shelved-Stephen Strasburg.
For the Phillies, Kyle Kendrick gets the ball and looks to finish the season off strong. It's been a positive second half for Kendrick and with a couple of good starts to end 2012, he could play himself into a full-time role in the rotation.
The Nationals magic number remains at five to win the East. Also, Roy Halladay is slated to start on Saturday after having a positive bullpen session. It will his final start of 2012.
Your Gameday Beer – Post Road Pumpkin Ale
This pumkin ale is more my speed. It doesn't have that strong hit of allspice and nutmeg that sends my chest into freakout mode. It's much more subdued. Post Road, made by Brooklyn Brewery, is called a beginners pumpkin beer by the smart-asses on Beer Advocate. Well, consider me beginning to drink one. – Pat Gallen

Old Kyle or new Kyle….I'll give him Credit- bc he has been awesome the 2nd half…a 2-0 first inningis ok for Old Kyle- let's call old Kyle-" Kylie"
That I care but where has Mary Mart been? Still on the bench or sent down?
Jesus I wish I could get the Philllies feed. That pompous ass Bob Carpenter is one of the reasons I can't stand them, Mike.
I assume you have the same have to listen to him and Santangelo ( another ass ) too?
You aren't missing much on the Phils feed. Wheeler did a schpiel on how nice it would be for all if Halladay pitches well Saturday, and everyone can take a positive feeling into the off season. Not my style of thinking, so I wasn't into it.
You mentioned before not liing Carpenter, but hadn't mentioned Santangelo. I like Santangelo. Wondered how you felt about his work. I'd include why I like him, but can't remember.
Looks like a long night.
There are many things I don't like about FP.
One example is last night in the bottom of the eighth when Davey Johnson put Clippard in to pitch instead of the lefty they had warming in the seventh- with Utley and Howard coming up. The results ( although Howard had nothing to with them) were predictable, with the Phils close to coming back to take the lead. But instead of talking about that – as Dibble would have- he's going on and on about how Charlie Manuel didn't put Juan Pierre in to run for Chooch. It turned out he saved Pierre to run for Ruf, but none of that should have been important to Nationals fans anyway with their set up man in serious trouble.
The other thing is, FP was once a juicer and I don't like cheaters, (and BTW that includes Mr. Galvis.)
If you care to read about it, it's mentioned here, I'm too lazy to find the original links-
Lefty, I didn't know if others felt the same about that smug asshole Carpenter. I'm down here in DC (Virginia) so I get to listen to him if I want to. Most times I turn the sound off as he's smugness is just too much for me, it gets me yelling at the TV. He just loves to rub in the positions this year in the standings between the two teams and seems to forget that prior to this year they were our BITCH, in fact we have I think a one game lead in head to head this year if I'm not mistaken and earlier in year when they were way ahead in head to head he was really too F—-g much.
Kylie Kendrick on the mound tonight I see…3 homers served so far.
We can blame the Astros potpie all we wanted, but regardless we had braves, Nats, fins, Nats to end the season- NOT FAVORABLE in the least.
Whereas the cards had (have) Elroy Jetsons Astros 6 times (w the cubbies sprinkled in there I believe).
So what? Play good teams in the end or beginning or middle. It's all the same.
Everyone lovs jumping Rizzo for the Strasburg thing, and that's fine, they may prove right. May not, too, but I'll tell ya what. He sure as hell seems to have timed Harper's arrival well.
Where would the Nats be if they hadn't called him up early. Might be better, it's possible, but might also be inversely 4 back of the Braves, facing a 1 game playoff. aybe Rizzo knows what he's doing.
Good night, Kyle. As in zzzzz, not a GOOD NIGHT. Now if THAT guy throws another good game, THEN it might give people more reason to be + for his next year.
I think it was a big organizational mistake to call up Harper as early as they did. Had they waited a few more months they would have gotten another year of arbitration eligibility out of him, which is going to cost them MILLIONS of dollars down the road.
IMO- That's Irrelevant your honor, er EricL. The Nationals de facto assistant GM, Scott "Mike and I built this team" Boras, will assure that he is signed to a lucrative extension long before he reaches Super 2.
Maybe, but I find it a little difficult to believe that Boras will allow the Nats to buy out any free agent years unless he gets them to massively overpay, which isn't good for the Nationals either. He knows how lucrative Harper will be as soon as he hits the open market and teams like LA/NY/BOS etc. can freely bid on him. He's got another 2000 A-Rod type situation on his hands if he plays it right, which I think he will.
And I understand your reasonable line of thinking. But with the Nationals, Boras seems to be trying a new tactic, one that would put him into a different stratosphere of agents.
Think about this- Why did LeBron James leave Cleveland? Because he correctly thought he could get a super paycheck, and win a championship in Miami. Same for Bosh- and although many others have tried and failed, they were all after the same thing, BOTH top dollar and a championship.
Boras has already proven he can get any athlete top dollar, it's why so many sign with him. But if he succeeds in becoming a championship builder along with his well deserved reputation of getting guys the most money, all the other agents become Jerry Maguire.
And thus ends the tale of Kyle Kendrick the ace.
There's the KK we know and love! Although honestly it makes me wonder: I know Chooch is a great game caller, but didn't KK's success come pretty much exclusively with other catchers? Some catchers and pitchers just aren't a match, maybe we shouldn't be starting those two together anymore.
Yeah, Dev thats the reason he gave up those "taters"…..Cooch is catching, really.
At least I have Bryce Harper on my fantasy team and its championship week!
Funny how I have predicted the Phillies finsih 2 years in a row now.
Win WS lose WS lose NLCS lose NLDS dont make playoffs.
I dont post much in off season. Instead of specualating at moves I am better at analyzing the moves that are made.
I will tell you all that the team will continue to regress as long as Ruben Minaya Jr. Is the Phillies GM.
Enjoy the off season guys.
4 years not 2
Take care Ken and Brooks and Lefty
Back atcha, AFW. At least we had some fun the last few weeks, and at least you won that Met bet. Rock on.
@Joey, I agree sort of. If we had say…the mets, cubs, mets, marlins we could have ran the table.
So, not sure what you mean. Having them all in a row is what I'm saying
And 3rd…c'mon Fransden. Strikeout. Ugh!!!
Clipnerd is good, but so close…top 9….let's complete this comeback!!
Argh… this was looking good for a few minutes…
Are you kidding me???
Chipped a 5 run deficit down to just one run, and now they're down 8-4???
Failed experiment w De Fratus. Great pressure situation test to see if Justin De FailedUS can make the team next season. He OBViously needs more work w the IronPigs. I'm totally okay w Charlie made that move.
Who gives a loop poop if we win this game or not. Let's try potential players in different situations.
Kylie Kendrick lost the game for us. U KNOW YOU STILL have your doubts w him. Hopefully he can be an above .500 guy for us next season.
Uh, no, De Fratus is fine. He got unluck with the pop that Pierre couldn't handle and Werth's grouner had eyes. There are very few Kimbrel and Chapman type relievers around who don't give up anything. De Fratus is still a very valuable player who has performed very well so far this season (in an extremely small sample size). This year he's averaging 8.7ish K/9, which is excellent, and came into the game with a 1.17 ERA and a 2.45 FIP. Further, in 21 minor league innings this year he was superb, posting a 2.49 ERA/2.78 FIP while striking out 9.14 batters per nine innings versus only 1.25 walks per 9.
He's an excellent option out of the pen. Sometimes everyone has a bad/unlucky game. This was his.
The Mets bet was never in question.
And it shouldnt be this year either.
Unless Ruben and Charlies incompetence is stronger than I know.
Which i possible.
As an orthopedic surgeon, I can tell you there's nothing wrong with Halliday's shoulder. The latissimus dorsi muscle which is allegedly responsible for his not being able to pitch, is not true. I think he just lost it. He just doesn't have the pin point control he used to have.
Another major thing wrong with the Phillies is Charlie. Managing a baseball team is not only about righty vs. lefty percentages.
Also, the Phillies should try to trade Howard who will never understand what it takes to be a real hitter. Sure he can hit it out of the park, but that is not what make a good hitter. For example, you can tell him that the next pitch is going to be a slider, and he still couldn't hit it. He stands too far back in the box-pure and simple.

The new Volvo FMX
Volvo FMX Classic
The new Volvo FM
Volvo FM Classic
On the narrow, dark stretches in the mine or in the gravel pit it's easy to bump into something and damage the truck. Thus, the headlights must be protected. Nothing must not damage the oil pan. The bumpers must withstand rough treatment. And if something should happen you shouldn't need to bring the truck to the workshop. Just keep on running as if nothing happened. Because uptime is essential.
It's made of steel, it's in three parts and the attachments are visible and easy to undo. This makes it easy to change the part that is damaged. So if you run into a pile of rubble it's no big deal. Perhaps you don't even notice any damage on the bumper. This is because the steel bumper is also covered by a thick polypropylene coat that will return to its original form if damaged.
The complete lower front is made as a box construction. Every part of it interacts, making the construction very sturdy, but at the same time resilient in a collision with a car. We at Volvo have mistreated this truck in our tests, more than you ever will do. And we are now convinced that this is the sturdiest front in the industry.
This protecting guard plate under the engine is really worth its name. It is 3 mm thick and it doesn't only protect the engine sump but the hoses and cooler too. Everything that is perishable when driving off road is protected, even when you reverse.
The skid plate has another advantage too; if you drive in a very dusty environment the plate reduces dust vortices under the truck.

The MI Pace Car Sweepstakes kicked off last month, when we teamed up with Michigan International Speedway (MIS), Ford Racing and Quicken Loans to give someone the chance to win a Ford Fusion Energi. As part of the sweepstakes, one lucky fan's name is being randomly drawn each month (from April through July) and entered as a finalist to win the Grand Prize at the Pure Michigan 400.
The first finalist – Mike Beecher of Kissimmee, Florida – was selected earlier this month and is looking forward to making the trip to MIS this August with his son Mikey. We had the chance to ask him a few questions about the upcoming trip and his passion for racing. Read his answers below, and don't forget that there's still time to enter the MI Pace Car Sweepstakes at www.mipacecar.com if you haven't already!
Q: Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
A: Happily married to my wife Beatriz. We have two children, son Michael (Mikey), 12 and daughter Amber, 5. We currently live in Kissimmee, Florida, and lived in Durand, Michigan from 1999-2004. I work as a carpenter and enjoy fishing, BBQ, going to theme parks and NASCAR.
Q: What role does racing play in your life?
A: I'm a huge NASCAR fan!!! Been a fan since watching races with my father as a child. He was a huge Dale Earnhardt Sr. fan, as was I! I try hard to watch every race on TV and go to Daytona for all races. I've also been to Kansas Speedway. You can find out more about how much I like NASCAR if you follow me on Twitter @NASCARGatorMike.
Q: Do you have a favorite driver that you'll be cheering for at MIS?
A: I really don't have a favorite driver anymore since Daytona 500 2001; I'm more just a fan of NASCAR. I do pull for some drivers more so than others though!
Q: Have you ever been to Michigan International Speedway (MIS) before?
A: Yes, I have been to Michigan International Speedway. Funny story too!! In 2001, I entered a contest from a Flint radio station (B-95) where I drag raced (men in dresses and 4″ heels) all which was filmed by the local TV station. I had to make a pit stop (so my wife could put makeup on me), then coming to the checkered flag I bumped one guy (which he was wearing pumps, me true 4″ heels)… he fell, I won two tickets to the Spring MIS race! My wife was 9 months pregnant with Mikey at the time of race! So I guess you can say Mikey has been to MIS as well! We really enjoyed everything about our weekend at MIS.
Q: Who will be coming to the race in August with you?
A: I'm taking my son Mikey in August with me to Michigan. Two reasons… First, my sister-in-law is coming to visit my wife that week. Second, Mikey and I enjoy NASCAR together! I've been taking him to races since he was 5.
Q: Outside of the racing itself, what are you looking forward to doing while in Michigan?
A: We are looking forward to staying at the JW Marriott in Grand Rapids and sightseeing around the area. We are planning a road trip to Durand, where Mikey was born. We'll also stop by Flint and visit old friends.
Q: If you win the pace car, where are you most looking forward to driving it?
A: If I win the pace car I'll have to cancel return flight do to road trip back to Florida!
In addition to the chance to drive away in the car, Mike and the other three monthly winners will receive the following:
- One month's mortgage payment, courtesy of Quicken Loans
- A Pure Michigan vacation with a four-night stay at one of the following hotels in Michigan: Holiday Inn and Suites in Ann Arbor, JW Marriott in downtown Grand Rapids, Shanty Creek Resort in Traverse City and Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island
- A MIS VIP Package – two passes to the Champions Club presented by CP Federal Credit Union, one MISCamping.com Graves Farm campsite, one MIScamping.com RV Rental, two cold garage passes and two pace car rides on August 17
A fifth finalist will be selected in prerace during the Pure Michigan 400.
See additional details on michigan.org, or visit www.mipacecar.com by July 31, 2013 to enter! Fans may also enter onsite at the Fan Plaza at any Michigan International Speedway NASCAR race.

Scissor Sisters tour UK in OctoberLast Up-Dated: 25th May 2012Following their sold-out comeback London concerts earlier in May, the fabulous Scissor Sisters return with a full UK tour in October in support of the new album "Magic Hour."October 2012Portsmouth, Guildhall (15 October 2012)Leeds, O2 Academy (16 October 2012)Glasgow, Barrowlands (19 October 2012)Manchester, Apollo (20 October 2012)Bristol, Colston Hall (22 October 2012)London, The Roundhouse (23 October 2012)The new album is the follow-up to 2010's "Night Work." The band came to prominence with self-titled debut in 2003. The album inlcuded a collection of chart-storming dance floor killer tunes, such as "Laura," "Mary," "Take Your Mama" and the outstanding Pink Floyd cover of "Comfortably Numb." Their androgynous outfits and energetic live shows fitted with the burgoning Electroclash scene that was raging in the clubs at the time and helped the band to establish a starong fanbase early on. Mainstream success arrived soon after and with 3,300,000 sold albums the Scissor Sisters had truely arrived. Riding high on the success of the debut and subsequent sold-out world tour, the New York-based band delivered "Ta-Dah" in 2006. "I don't Feel Like Dancing" was the album's big single and the track "Paul McCartney" off "Ta-Dah" occupied DJ sets at every clubnight. Touring and recording commitments lead to various band members suffer exhaustion. In particular, lead singer Jake Shearer felt the pressure. Album number three was delayed several times and various versions were scarpped. Jake Shearer relocated briefly to Berlin to find inspiration and Germany's capital and its famous night life culture helped in realising "Night Work," the 2010 Scissor Sister album.

Hi all,
My LO is almost 4 months and I want to prepare myself for introducing solids ( I want to start after he is 6 months, sometime in summer). I would like to follow LLL progression for introducing solids. Any books out there that could help me with this process? Any recommendations on food storage/preparation?
Lori :)

Located in the famous building of The Three Sisters, at Bordoo we offer our personal rendition of Baltic and especially Estonian gourmet cuisine with an innovative gastronomic take on traditional cooking methods, fine local produce and the legacy of our shared food heritage.
Bordoo is not only about truffles, foie-gras, sun-dried tomatoes and black olives. We explore our regions discovering outstanding foods and bringing them back to Estonia. Our menus feature fresh, regional and seasonal delights.
Details doesn't just mean the correct way to slice a fillet or how a dish is presented, it is just as much about quality. There are only two factors involved in the making of food: raw produce and preparation.
We always continue to look out for new sources of inspiration in Estonia - and in the Baltic countries as well - to ensure reliable sources of top-quality produce.
Above all, we want to be thorough in all that we do. We pay careful attention to the qualities of our culinary heritage, but we also aim to create something brand new. We comb the countryside for berries, mushrooms and herbs that others would not bother with and work with foods that aren't part of any system of formalized cultivation and consequently cannot be obtained through ordinary channels of distribution.
We do our own baking, salting, smoking, pickling, drying and grilling. We also prepare our own chocolate. And we certainly use state-of-the-art kitchen appliances and techniques, since we are just as concerned with the textures of our food as any other world-class restaurant.
When in season, fresh vegetables, herbs, spices and wild plants play a prominent role in our dishes.
Cooking at Bordoo is fairly ambitious. Estonian cuisine must possess certain purity, an essential simplicity, and we firmly believe that the cuisine has significant health benefits to offer as well. All these values are reflected in our menus, in the composition and presentation of each dish and in the planning and preparation that underlies it all.
