And is always buster brought you by new turf care. And by Toyota Nash or buster joins us on the AT&T hotline buster -- Lou -- I don't great guys still -- and it's nice deliberate in this -- to get all the opening day Galloway and. Nate you take a look at everything into Israel wants not. You turn the page that the Red Sox try to do from last year and get focused on this year and I I'm curious boss you around this team. Quite a bit of spring training did anyone around the Red Sox ever suggest that you. That at some point this year -- and every day outfielder Grady Sizemore left. Jackie Bradley junior and senator and Shane Victorino in right was that ever a possibility think in the Red Sox months. Well I'm an idea that some people it adds Grady was showing his stuff and we were -- we did two games -- them on the eighteenth and twenty at the margin that was one of the scenarios that was. You know I was told had been talked about internally that they would because they definitely wanted to develop Jackie Bradley junior and they believe that he is. If not the best defensive center fielder in the American League I think he could be. And they wanna get him established chain victory know isn't sure you guys talk about he's probably played right field better than any. Red Sox players to Dwight Evans and he put Greenblatt indeed potentially -- a shut down out field. I think the big question at that time. Was of course whether greens gonna -- up and I think that's going to be questioned the whole season but yeah I think it's. You know we've been in the back of their minds and I think they're willing to -- Did concede. Exactly how well Daniel Nava hitting and how well my -- sitting up -- two you know she's in last year when both guys were pretty good. You know what a difference a year makes Jackie Brown is a great spring two years ago makes the team doesn't get anything done the big leagues -- this spring has an awful spring comes up here. In the last couple of games she accompany kid where their people doubting him in spring training credit carriers are wondering what they're watching. I don't think within the red Dutch organization there was I think I mean did a lot of adapt to reflected where in the media. Based on his performance -- -- you know I know -- when you talk the -- -- during the wintertime about what to plan to initially before Grady came into the equation. In any serious way they're feeling was right look. -- accurately -- got a ton of talent and he's gonna do what we'd like can that get on base and play great defense to that position. You know I talked to the value waiters and -- detained during spring training really opposed to broadcast we did and they talked about how they thought the -- confidence was down. But you guys -- how quickly that can change. -- only joining us and what the injury will little Brooks he's going to be a fifteen day DL. Red Sox went -- got Ryan Roberts but there were some phone calls and text her fans Monday buster suggesting. Now's the time to get Stephen Drew go get him put him at shortstop but -- at third. From your reporting of the Red Sox have any cover at any conversations with -- and what is his status what do you think he gets a job in the bigs. I actually I repeat that that day and I talked to a number of value leaders waited in -- different came to -- in the question about OK if acute pain had indeed what would you pay him. And that it's obviously raised the issue what's going on here because. Stephen Drew likened your morale -- took -- fourteen point one million dollars in the qualifying offer. And what most of the people I spoke with -- yesterday. He told me was. They almost certainly believe that he's gonna sign after the June draft because they said that. And let you have eighteen with a desperate need like the Dodgers if Hanley Ramirez got hurt. Or Derek Jeter got hurt for the Yankees or Bogart got -- for the Red Sox. That it in all likelihood that change probably would be conservative so conservative in their offers but it wouldn't be -- truce while. What's gonna be interesting from the Red Sox point of view you know going forward it's. You know it would they even be entertained a question before the June draft because remember. You know the way they're hoping probably internally at this point drew -- it and that the -- so they get a cup competition draft pick. And I know that the Indians felt this way with the ball demand is in the world obviously with -- Ervin Santana. That if they're gonna side back those guys in the red -- that percentage Woodrow essentially will attach a discount. To whatever they're gonna offer him by saying look in order to -- now we have to give up the draft pick. And and that's why it's probably less likely that the Red Sox it's IG drew before the June draft most of the document that I got from GM's. Untrue or in the 78 million dollar range in terms of what they -- keep in mind. That's pro rated for when he actually comes back because he's been out so long. And they said lucky he cited today we take in three weeks to get back on the field so if he does sign after the June draft. You're talking about July 1 he dug him admitting that he's been talking about maybe you know having lost 7678 million dollars. You -- -- -- washed it was Intel has been talking about you know AJ Pierzynski in what he can bring in. We -- announced that the three hits last couple of games here now on the average jumped up as a free swinger he's had a long career. I think he throws the ball OK but receiving the baseball we've seen and dropped some balls -- what are you hearing bode -- is getting older would have a players become. Well -- is no question -- -- get these defense has drawn notice of rival scouts that talked to the last couple days and they say that. He struggled early in their eyes. You know I -- is gonna question me because the Red Sox have great defensive alternatives in the minor league. That AJ got a -- to hang out of that job in the way that this was structured was. You know that they essentially brought AG into the place holder for the young catchers that they have in the farm system you know that has been in the -- Who's most developed who is he viewed without a doubt by people that McCain being a strong defender. And we've seen this regime you know John Ferrell then -- -- In the -- in the middle of a World Series. They were willing to change their catcher because they value defense and David Ross got the call over Jarrod Saltalamacchia. Do do you want Saltalamacchia change I believe during -- during the postseason so of course it's within the realm of possibility page doesn't hit. That they would look at other possibilities especially since Christian is such. -- players that they look light because he -- skill that they like besides the defense. You know last year more walks than strikeouts. In 390 I've played compared to AAA. They love and there's a reason for that and that's why I do think that -- the season goes along. If Beijing doesn't -- that's gonna come into the conversation. Buster only ESPN joins us that the the injury so far been minor but the Red Sox and chain victory -- will -- ball expected back. The people you talked to buster -- the Tampa Bay Rays expecting Matt Moore back left the game. Left elbow it didn't sound good what's the latest on his health. Now and entertainment told reporters last night that they're standing in Q doctor Andrews. For a second opinion he had a clear view wanted to mark topped and it's a terrific reporter covering the race. For the Tampa Bay times and he wrote this morning in the paper that you know that there's real concern that he's got a significant injury. And obviously I mean that would be a body blow for that team because it's so much built on the great rotation -- more. Really -- to develop last year and in a way that we all expected after he broke the big -- a couple of years ago. And he would be difficult for them to replace him even though they do that some good pitching prospects. He'll Boston last night as a play -- game rob Brian Roberts struck a ball in the dirt umpire called. File -- -- obviously it bounced barrel came out under review bull apparently. One weekend I'm not crazy about it I think that the economy jumped into it does a lot of scenarios in the game that. There -- wondering. Why is this review below what is going on it may be taken too long one week in what are your thoughts on this report. Well I'd -- -- into Major League Baseball credit they they catch it yep -- saying look we know this is a work in progress I thought from the beginning. That the idea that managerial challenges it was a bad idea. A lot of the leader of the team officials and in managers and coaches that spoke would agree with that. They don't want them to be and they they want the idea. If you're gonna. Haven't seen me play just getting many calls right as possible. It was pitched in the other day we had a conversation with Bruce -- -- the giants manager at a situation last week where. Because he would use his challenger only he weren't going to play. Which was wrong in the call he couldn't address it because he's talent he's on Sunday that one change that he would suggest he would. One thing manager comes out of the dugout that counted the challenge which means that the managers yet he continues. -- situation strategy score. It you know before coming out of -- -- arguing about a play because let's face it the way this is sort of played out. Now it's letting these awkward situations where the -- short while I was dug out. While waiting to -- killing time waiting for work come through their dugout but it's the right call it the wrong call comes up or thumbs down. Imprinted -- as the tigers manager told me that particular -- pars are really awkward. He told the story last week about how when he was going at the county Cawley said. Particularly with the -- sacred. -- that you're killing time wait for the signal. He particularly looked -- -- is that okay well you're not challenging because you're giving them down -- -- yet okay thanks a -- back in the dugout. That's unbelievable on big big got to look and this is going to be a season long thing when loses it like it buster. Ridiculous the show every day who hates it. Lou with every day that he hates this and I'm sure you get calls and texts and people around baseball every single -- closer -- -- up Monday and I actually thought that -- that should have been an out -- it does a section weeded. But he thought -- have been reversed as well but I just. Some -- I just don't. Yeah I just I just don't get. -- I you know I like the idea I think it's better than most people I speak with a vast majority stake. You know what it better than I want to delete to get some of the calls right. But it's gonna need some changing there's no question about it and and I. I totally disagree with maybe MLB roll this thing out but it's the same time they're they're completely open minded about what you know -- going forward. Buster last one for me -- other way to talk about I think right now -- throughout the course the rest of the show and that is your story Monday. Were you -- baseball executive. Say let's go to seven innings let's let's shorten the games. Let's get the two and a half hours let's speeded up when the younger people involved your game to take it too long. What has been the reaction last 48 hours you've gotten from people around baseball. Based on back home what executives -- a deal. Well and the course. Looked and I knew this. Are going crazy thing that's the dumbest thing ever heard it was it was interesting conversation because it came out. Could someone you guys now -- -- do not believe name. But we just have a conversation about its stand at a replay actually about the delays in the game. And the pitching injuries we were talking about and how many of those and he mentioned that they had a hard time. Getting at proper volume of pitchers and said. You know I've been thinking about the solutions solution and you mentioned seven anything and I could only played two things right now one it'll never happen because the traditionalist. Will go -- that you'll change things like 27 outs. You know the -- three bad street guys three times through the order. All those things the records could never happen again 500 homers you would be much more difficult 3000 yet. And I sit on top of that you're gonna get killed this idea can get killed. -- Twitter verse it and I call them up on Monday up the story came and I did see the first wave companies to get a check out. I know I know NL but I -- think the one thing trying to get across is. We have to start adjusting. Can't have a situation with a game continually get slower. And we have to start addressing the whole issue that we have with pitching injuries. I I think its core I think it's crazy that they've waited this long to sort of think of of ways outside the box speed up the game this might not be -- way. But aware of executives like him credit because that is something in the that the sport is gonna face on going for buster we appreciate the time is always enjoy the weekend. We'll talk to next Wednesday that there -- great at great talk with a job of general -- ESPN joins us that every single Wednesday. But by new turf care and by our friends at Toyota of Nashua.

In the past year, officials examining problems in such locales as Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and Maywood, California have all contended that their work was greatly hindered by a police "code of silence" in which officers refused to speak candidly about the misdeeds of their colleagues. How common is this problem and, more importantly, how can it be addressed in ways that do not undermine police officers' ability to do their job in effective and appropriate ways?

Where I stayed
What I did
Nechisar National Park
Lake Chamo
I woke Jillie up at 6:30 for breakfast. They try very hard in this restaurant. We have a lake view here from the terrace. It was pretty hazy. We left at 7:30. I was in Girmay's car today. I had no idea how to spell his name until I asked Kibrom. I sat in the front and Martina, Andrew & Barbara were in the back. We stopped at a little shop in town to get water, but then the drivers all disappeared so we had to wait for them to come back before we could start out on our drive to the Nechisar National Park. I still don't know where they went. A mystery.
We had been warned that the drive would be very difficult, but various people opted for the long drive rather than the alternative for different reasons: Martina mentioned that she didn't advise the hour walks in the noonday sun. Anne said that people were put off by the idea of an 8 hr boat ride
When we finally reached the plains, someone spotted what they said was a dik-dik in the bushes. I think I saw the outline or shape of an animal. We went to a lookout that was pleasant and I took some photos of the wavy grass - it was lovely as it blew in the wind. After we got down into the plains again, someone spotted zebra and gazelles - Grant's gazelles?? I saw the zebra but not the gazelles. As we wound our way around the plains, we saw the little groups of Burchell's zebra much closer up as well as some birds - kory bustards, secretary birds, and maybe fish hawks. Other people saw some gazelles and I did see one with nice horns before we left the plains.
As we made our way out, Barbara spotted 2 little dik-dik and she was very pleased
Today was our big wildlife highlight for Ethiopia. I hadn't really considered Ethiopia as a safari destination. The hippo viewing and the first part of our ride into Nechisar National Park couldn't really compare with my Southern or East African trips, but once we got closer to the zebra on the Plains and I began to see some birds and other gazelles, I was just as excited as I had been on the other safaris. The crocodile viewing was exceptional - seeing them so close as we went past them in the boats. The 4x4 ride to get to the Plains was also exceptional - hadn't been on anything nearly as rough on the other trips!
We then stopped in town for a late lunch. The place was in a rather fancy courtyard - like a big shopping mall courtyard - outdoor though - with a fountain in it - sadly the fountain wasn't running. I got the shoro with injera and it came on a huge platter
We drove off again out of town to Chamo Lake where we took 2 motor boats out. We had picked up the boatmen and some gas on the way. There weren't enough life jackets to go around. On the way out, the boatman poled us until he started the engine. The water was a little rough so we got a little wet with Mick and my driver Girmay getting the wettest. We went out to a side channel half way across the lake and there we looked at the crocodiles basking on the mud shore. The first one sighted was so huge that I didn't realize I was looking at a crocodile. It was monstrous with a huge scaly back. The were other big ones - I am not sure how many but it seemed like at least a dozen. In that area were a number of birds - fish hawks, sacred ibis, marabou stork, heron - maybe others that I can't remember or ones that I misremembered.
We then went on in search of the hippos and a few were spotted, but they mostly disappeared under the water as soon as we saw them...and then we left before they came back up
There was a gorgeous lowering sun with rays streaming down over the mountains. I think everyone took loads of photos of it. On the way back Andrew asked if he could sit in the front seat since he had some ideas for some shots. I sat in the middle of the back and was content to watch the scenery through the windshield. There were herds of cows coming back along the highway....along with some goats sometimes. Kibrom says that cattle are a status symbol - more important than their use for meat or milk. They are brought back to villages outside the city although it looked as if lots were going into town. On the way back to the hotel, there were only a few people carrying large bunches of straw or sticks on their heads. I don't know how many were walking up the hill on our way out. The poor guys seemed to be trotting or walking as if the weight on their heads or shoulders were pushing them forward.
We got back around 6:30 and had dinner at 7 pm. Not too much to report there. Oh, some people were buying the local red wine which is bottled in beer bottles and sealed with beer bottle caps.
The electricity is still on now - it's almost 9:30. I think I might upload some photos before getting to bed and taking my malaria tablet since I can't take it within 2 hrs of eating. Hope the electricity doesn't go off because I would like to charge my computer tonight.

The Element of Surprise in War
THERE are exceptions to every rule, but in nine cases out of ten surprise (to the surprised) means a failure or disaster that might have been avoided with greater circumspection or vigilance. Avoidable failure is bad for prestige, and one of the greatest assets of a General is to inspire confidense. If he fails under difficult conditions he may still retain all his old influence over his men, as Sir Redvers Buller did on the Tugela; but if he is surprised there will always be some in the Army who will distrust him in future.

This is not "a land grab", the lands to be protected are already within Federal National Forests, and designation will help protect a diminishing watershed.

The Simpsons - Season 1 Episodes
The Simpsons - Season 1
The Simpsons' first season originally aired between December 17, 1989 and May 13, 1990, beginning with the Christmas special "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire". The executive producers for the first production season were Matt Groening, James L. Brooks, and Sam Simon.
The series was originally set to debut in late 1989 with the episode "Some Enchanted Evening", which was meant to introduce the main characters; during the first screening of the episode, the producers discovered that the animation was so appalling that 70% of the episode needed to be redone. The producers considered aborting the series if the next episode turned out as bad, but it only suffered from easily fixable problems. The producers convinced Fox to move the debut to December 17, and aired "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire" as the first episode of the series. The first season won one Emmy Award, and received four additional nominations.

Thank you so much to the wonderful Driscoll's Berries, tonight I learned some new beautiful recipes. Perfect holiday recipes for Thanksgiving, AND Christmas!
I started my night with the warm Brie with Honeyed Strawberries and Almonds! An easy recipe, and so versatile. I used strawberries, but you can use raspberries, or blackberries. The recipe called for pistachios, but I chose almonds to compliment the strawberries.
Here is the post I shared on Wednesday, it has the fun recipe there!
Next I made the acorn squash with raspberry sauce. I am a huge fan of any squash, so I love learning new ways to flavor this beautiful vegetable. The raspberry sauce again was so easy, and yet is packed full of amazing flavor!
Here is the recipe from Driscoll's
2 acorn squash
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the oil
2 tablespoons honey, warmed until fluid
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Raspberry Sauce
1 package (6 ounces each) Driscoll's Raspberries
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
To roast the squash, preheat the oven to 400. F. Lightly oil a large
roasting pan. Cut each squash lengthwise into eight equal wedges.
(To do this safely, place a squash on the work surface. Position a
chef's knife where you want to cut the squash. Hit the back of the
knife blade with the heel of your other hand or a blunt object, such
as a flat meat pounder, to drive the knife into the squash.)
Arrange squash wedges, skin sides down, in the roasting pan.
Lightly oil the squash. Add 1/2 cup of water to the pan. Cover
tightly with aluminum foil.
Bake for 20 minutes. Uncover and continue baking until squash is
almost tender, about 15 minutes. Brush squash with honey and bake
until lightly browned, about 5 minutes more. (Acorn squash can be
roasted, covered with aluminum foil, and stored at room temperature
for up to 8 hours. Add 1/4 cup hot water to pan. Reheat, covered
with foil, in preheated 400. F oven for 10 minutes, then uncovered
for 5 minutes more.)
Meanwhile, make raspberry drizzle. Combine raspberries, brown
sugar, and 2 tablespoons water in medium saucepan. Bring to a
simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to
medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until juices are
lightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Puree very briefly (do not crush
seeds) in blender. Strain raspberry mixture through a fine wire
sieve. (Raspberry drizzle can be covered and refrigerated for 1 day.
Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour before using.)
Arrange acorn squash on platter. Season with salt and pepper.
Drizzle with raspberry puree and serve hot.
Note – This recipe is absolutely delicious!!!!
To make my night end with a huge happy dance, I devoured some eggnog panna cotta, topped with a balsamic strawberry sauce. I have never been a lover of eggnog, but this recipe has converted me. What a gorgeous, creamy, dreamy, delicious treat!
Look strawberries taking a swim in some balsamic vinegar!
Here is the recipe from Driscoll's
Canola oil for the ramekins
1 envelope (1/4 ounce) plain powdered gelatin
1 cup whole milk, divided
2 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup sugar
6 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons rum flavoring (or 1 teaspoon each rum flavoring and
brandy flavoring)
Balsamic Strawberries
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 package (6 ounces or 1 1/4 cups) Driscoll's Strawberries
Lightly oil insides of six 3/4-cup ramekins or custard cups.
Sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup of milk in small bowl. Let stand until
gelatin softens, about 5 minutes.
Place a wire sieve over a heatproof bowl near the stove. Whisk egg
yolks and sugar in a second heatproof bowl until combined. Heat cream
and remaining 3/4 cup milk in medium saucepan over medium heat,
stirring often, until simmering. Gradually whisk into yolks mixture.
Return to saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly with a
wooden spoon, until mixture coats spoon (a finger run through the
custard on the spoon will cut a swath) and an instant-read thermometer
reads 185.F, about 3 minutes. Pour through the sieve. Discard the bits
of cooked egg white in the sieve. Add the soaked milk and rum extract
to the cream mixture, and whisk until gelatin is completely dissolved,
about 1 minute. Let stand 5 minutes to cool slightly.
Divide cream mixture evenly among ramekins. Cover each with plastic
wrap. Refrigerate until chilled and set, at least 2 hours.
Meanwhile to prepare balsamic raspberries, whisk brown sugar and
balsamic vinegar together in medium bowl to dissolve sugar. Add
raspberries and fold together. Let stand at room temperature for 15
minutes to 2 hours.
To unmold each panna cotta, run a dinner knife around inside of ramekin
to release panna cotta. Hold a dessert plate firmly over ramekin and
invert plate and ramekin together. Shake firmly to unmold panna cotta
onto plate. Top each panna cotta with an equal amount of raspberries
and their juices. Serve immediately.
Note – I wanted to share a picture after I brought it out of the ramkin….BUT my panna cotta did not look very pretty. I used butter instead of oil in the ramkin, so defiinitely use oil to get the panna cotta out easily. For the sauce, I took 1/2 pint of strawberries, the balsamic vinegar, and sugar, and cooked down in a sauce pan. You can add more sugar if you choose. Let the sauce get thick, and then cool, and pour it over the panna cotta!
Another note – After each spoonful, I did a serious happy dance! A beautiful recipe!
What a fun night! Looking forward to trying many more beautiful recipes with berries. Driscoll's has many recipes on their website, Enjoy!
What is your favorite dish with berries?

Bristol traffic detoured around Tanyard Brook project
BRISTOL-While motorists at least can navigate one-way Hope Street through downtown, further south, Hope Street is closed off to traffic altogether.
This week, work on the actual culvert for Tanyard Brook began. For the past two weeks, crews were involved in preparation work, clearing space and relocating underground utility lines. As of Monday, police set up detour signs to divert traffic heading south around the area, using Union Street or High Street as an alternative route.
"We want to finish everything up on Hope Street so we can open it up to traffic," said Mark Merrill, engineer with BETA.
The road closure could last up to three weeks, Mr. Merrill said, "in a worst case scenario."
Once the culvert work is complete in the Hope Street section, Mr. Merrill expects the next section to go along quickly through the wooded portions of the project area.
"Once we get to the neighborhoods, it'll slow down again," he said.
While working on the outfall into Walkers Cove, sandbags and floating booms have been installed to prevent any contaminants from getting into Bristol harbor. Neighbors in the area, said Mr. Merrill, have been very understanding despite the necessary inconvenience.
Tanyard Brook has been a source of neighborhood flooding for nearly two decades. The clogged and collapsed culvert is susceptible to flooding during heavy rain events. The outfall into Walker's Cove will be corrected with a tide gate to allow for the release of stormwater when necessary. Further up the brook, repairs and upgrades will increase the capacity of water it can handle. Phase one, at a cost of $3,577,147, will end at Garfield Avenue.
The project is funded by $2.9 million of federal money through the U.S. Economic Development Administration and a $1.1 million Community Development Block Grant. Northern Construction Service of Weymouth, Mass. is doing the construction work, with BETA Engineering overseeing the project.

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Pocket Switchers for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
These cute Pocket Switchers transforming balls really are a perfect stocking stuffer. I was sent three Pocket Switchers Transforming Balls to try out. My Alice and her cousins had a blast playing with them.
The Pocket Switchers Transforming Balls convert from a rubber ball into a fun surprise. We had a fish, an octopus and a shark. My husband loves football and loves sharks. The shark Pocket Switcher is in the shape of a football when it's in it's ball form. He's totally claimed that ball for himself.
The balls were fun to switch for the girls and they were not to heavy. As a ball they bounced pretty high and the rubbery texture makes them easy to catch. Once you switch them you have another toy to play with. Two toys in one is a win in my book. Your kids have fun sea animals to play with or a fun ball to play catch with.
Alice liked the octopus the best. She loves purple and it was pretty easy for her to switch out. Since the balls transform into sea animals she asked to play with them in the bathtub. They were perfect for bath tub play as well as there are no metal parts to the balls.
Now, mommy really liked that they were a fun distraction for the kids, especially since they really are two toys in one. The are pretty small in ball form and therefor easy to take with you for fun on the go.
If you'd like to buy some for your kiddos, for now or as a perfect stocking stuffer you can find the Pocket Switchers Transforming Balls at your local Walmart in the check out aisle. They are recommended for ages 5 and up.

Google Health at the Harvard Privacy Symposium
August 20th, 2008 | Published in Google Public Policy
Long before we launched Google Health in May, our team engaged with health care industry experts, policymakers, and privacy organizations to discuss the privacy and security protections we planned to build into the product. As part of this ongoing conversation, yesterday I spoke alongside representatives from other personal health record (PHR) services at the Harvard Privacy Symposium. During a panel entitled "Privacy and Technology: Privacy Prospects in the New Online Personal Health Record World," we discussed the most pressing privacy issues in the emerging PHR market, as well as potential policy and industry-based solutions.
I emphasized our philosophy of putting users in control of the data stored in their Google Health accounts and building privacy features into the fundamental architecture of Google Health, as we do with all our products and services. Giving users complete control -- it's their data, after all -- means that users don't have to worry about their employer or health insurance company, for example, accessing their medical records stored in Google Health unless they've explicitly invited them to do so.
In this same vein, Google Health recently endorsed and was involved in developing the Markle Foundation's Connecting for Health framework for privacy practices for online health services. This industry-wide collaboration has resulted in clear, common-sense standards that give patients control over their personal health information and greater visibility into how it is used and kept safe. The framework is an important step in protecting health information and gaining the trust and confidence of our users who want to begin storing their medical records online. We want our users to be assured that we will never sell their health data or share it with others unless they authorize us to do so. We believe our users should have control over who views their health information and who can add to it, and we make it possible for users to revoke access rights at any time.
We support and are taking part in the national dialogue on potential privacy legislation for electronic consumer health information. However, we know that PHRs are still in their infancy. We think it's important to be thoughtful about how the adoption of PHRs presents new privacy challenges. But it's also important not to underestimate how storing and managing medical records online offers unprecedented benefits to users. Strong privacy practices and sensible public policy are part of the story, but we must balance integrating privacy protections with the need for a simple and easy user experience and foster continued innovation by technology and health care companies. We cannot create new privacy standards that make it harder for users to get access to their data online.
We see barriers already today. Patients currently have the right to get copies of their medical records, but so few go through the tedious process of requesting copies or faxes of their records or paying any necessary administrative fees to get them. Google Health makes it easier for patients to access their own health information by importing electronic copies from connected health care providers directly into their accounts. Once their records are stored in Google Health, users can take their pick from a number of useful online health tools to help them to better manage their health, communicate with their doctors, and improve their well-being. It's up to users to elect these services, as we believe they should always be in control.
We welcome review of our privacy policy and practices and are continuously working with prominent privacy organizations, as well as our own Google Health Advisory Council, to take their feedback. We're working on future iterations of Google Health's functionality and features, including those that offer users even more granular control over managing their health information and sharing their medical records with whom they choose.

More photos of the supposed "Baby Jeep" have surfaced again. Though widely referred to as the 2015 Jeep Jeepster, new rumors suggest that the new crossover could also sport Latitude (or Lattitude) as its nameplate. That said, this prototype is sporting much more camouflage than previous test vehicles, suggesting that Jeep is closer to finalizing the mechanical and styling details for its upcoming entry-level crossover.As previously reported, the new Jeep -- whatever its name may be -- should replace the Compass and Patriot in the brand's lineup, and will ride on the same platform as the Fiat 500X. Despite its Italian roots, the small Jeep should showcase a number of familiar Jeep design cues. Up front, the prototype shows hints of Jeep's signature slatted grille, while squarish headlights look a bit tougher than the Fiat's round units. In fact, the Jeep's overall body shape is boxier compared to the 500X's round shape, and earlier rumors suggested the Jeepster (or Latitude) was inspired by the Willys MB Jeep.http://wot.motortrend.com/1401_spied_new_baby_jeep_looking_less_like_a_fiat.html
Ooohh. I love me some italian vehicles.

Review Philander Smith College
Philander Smith Collegiate Choir came long ways, although the loss of former choir director Dr. Parker was unfortunate the school choir still managed to keep flowing. New Director Mr. Chapel has continued a new path, increasing the choirs Collegiate understanding of music. Recently Philander Smith Collegiate Choir had travelled down to Fort Worth, Texas to perform collegiate songs for Alumnus, in which, they were given donations for the showcase. Philander Smith's Choir was also apart of panel discussion for the Presidency inauguration performance, if however, Hilary Clinton won the race. Despite the news of Trump taking the Presidency, Philander Smith Collegiate choir still have a substantial amount of Performances coming
I absolutely love Philander. The staff are very supportive and wants you to become successful. The students are friendly and I guarantee you will be know. I'm an athlete at Philander and most schools they show favoritism towards athletes,PSC doesn't. Which I'm not upset about. At Philander you aren't given anything,you work for them. Just like real life,jobs not going to be handed out to you. I love my HBCU and wouldn't trade it for any other!
What I like about Philander is that the professors truly do care, they will try to help you as much as they can and so will the advisers. Honestly all of the staff there is very friendly and helpful, I love my HBCU. But what I would like to see change is more diversity and more job opportunities for students who really want to go to college but seriously can not afford to take out any loans and weren't fortunate enough to get any scholarships.

This Fall's color trend is my favorite because it is lots of shades of purple!! I love purple it is my favorite color. Plum is especially in, some consider plum to be a reddish purple and others a dark purple. I love either shade! Also dark vampy lips are in, I have never wore a dark red lipstick before but I would not mind taking a risk in trying it.
Now for nail color these shades are also in but I came across a new color by Essie for this fall called Don't sweater it. Not sure if it is available just yet, their website does not have it up. I saw this in September 2012 Glamour issue. It is described as a warm cashmere mauve color, lovely.
