After decades of rule by authoritarian figures the people of Egypt were hoping for an opportunity to test a democratic life. Alas,that was before Mohammed Morsi shocked the population by assuming the mantle of number one tyrant of the month. A man who had spent years in America decided the taste of power was intoxicating and he required a few gallons for his comfort. However, the man of the Brotherhood decided to reach a pact with the devil and reached out to the military for an alliance.
Under the new arrangement, the military maintains control over its business operations, it makes all military promotions and has free reign in deciding who runs the show. In return, the military has been ordered to crush those protesting a Muslim centered constitution. We can assume people will die in Tahrir Square and in the end Morsi will have power.
One question for Morsi: What if generals decide they desire a return to power, who then fills the squares of protest?

No one remembers who came in second.
I'm sure someone has already knocked you for this, but if they haven't, allow me: No way is Collins even close to our worst QB. He was far from the best, but he could make some plays. Guy brought us to the Super Bowl for crying out loud. Also, the "make it a double" jab isn't fair. Dude had an alcohol problem that he stepped up to, no need to mock it.

Kerry Collins - anyone who thinks KC was terrible obviously knows nothing about the players that preceded him. Dave Brown, Danny Kannel, Tommy Maddox, or Kent Graham. Take your pick. They all sucked.
Toast is a 2x Super Bowl winner (one with the Cowboys) that was given that name by Bill Parcells. He did get burned now and then, but he was a pretty good player.
Tynes kicked us into to the Super Bowl twice with walk-off kicks. Clearly he is not worthy of anyone's 'worst' list.

Turnbull named as defendant in HIH case
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
Merchant banker Malcolm Turnbull, Liberal candidate for Wentworth and the party's former federal treasurer, is listed as a defendant in a civil action launched by the liquidators of the insurance giant HIH.
The statement of claim, which is for hundreds of millions of dollars, has been listed for a status hearing on November 19.
Mr Turnbull is named with nine other defendants including his former colleague at Goldman Sachs Australia, Russell Pillemer, former FAI boss Rodney Adler and former HIH executives Timothy Mainprize and Daniel Wilkie.
The action relates to the controversial purchase of FAI Insurance by HIH in January 1999, which contributed to HIH's $5.3 billion collapse - the largest in Australian corporate history - two years later.
HIH paid $300 million for the Adler group but royal commissioner Justice Neville Owen subsequently revealed the real cost was about $590 million.
Solicitors for the HIH liquidators are Blake Dawson Waldron. All the defendants will contest the action vigorously.
Mr Turnbull's campaign headquarters at Bondi Junction was visited yesterday by the "flying rat", a jokester dressed in a costume, with a placard saying: "Malcolm needs help - Trust me."
Later, a John Howard look-alike was escorted around the shopping precinct by Labor candidate David Patch, who introduced him as "the next leader of the Opposition".

PHC Names New Cath Lab Director
Thomas Brando, RN, has been named the Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Peninsula Hospital Center.
Brando comes to the Peninsula Hospital Center from its affiliate, North Shore-LIJ Health System, where he worked for the past 20 years. Since 2004, he worked in the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, where he was responsible for and recovery of cardiac cath patients. His background includes 19 years as a critical care nurse in North Shore's Cardiothoracic Unit. He also served at North Shore in the Nursing Education Department, where he functioned as a resource person, followed up on new nurse orientations, coordinated management from each unit, and planned inservice education.
The Cath Lab at Peninsula Hospital Center is in the critical planning phase and Brando has been brought on board during this preliminary stage so that he can be intimately involved in the early development of the policies and procedures that will be utilized in the lab. Brando, in collaboration with the physicians from North Shore-LIJ Health System (Dr. Barry Kaplan of LIJ Medical Center) and Peninsula Hospital Center (Dr. Narendra Hadpawat), will participate in the selection of new state-ofthe art catheterization equipment, the architectural plans for the fourth floor of the Hospital Center that will house the lab, as well as the start of the actual construction phase. Additionally, Brando will oversee the hiring, training and supervision of all the nursing personnel who will serve as staff to the new cardiac cath unit.
Brando is excited about the opportunity of being on board for the birth of cardiac catheterization procedures at Peninsula Hospital Center. He assures that the new cath lab will be "absolute state-of-the-art and comparable to, or better than, anything that can be found in Manhattan or on Long Island." Narendra Hadpawat, MD, Peninsula Hospital Center's Chief of Cardiology, is very pleased to have Brando on staff. "Tom has been very well trained in cardiology at North Shore and will be a tremendous asset for the Hospital Center's new Cardiac Cath Lab."
Following the completion of the construction of the cardiac catheterization laboratory, Peninsula Hospital Center will be the only hospital center featuring a cardiac cath lab on the South Shore of Queens County, the Rockaways and the Five Towns of Nassau County. Peninsula Hospital Center maintains an active affiliation with the North Shore-LIJ Health System and the new cardiac catheterization service will be in coordination with LIJ Medical Center's cardiology program.

EL PASO, Texas - As expected, USC wide receiver Robert Woods announced after the Sun Bowl he would forgo his senior season and enter the NFL draft.
The former Serra High star caught only three passes for 33 yards in the Trojans' 21-7 loss Monday to Georgia Tech and finished his career with a school-record 252 receptions.
"My goal was to come here and be one of the top wide receivers in school history," Woods said. "I think I accomplished that."
Woods said his NFL evaluation projected him as a second-round draft choice but he believed he could move into the first round with strong workouts for NFL teams.
"There is potential to be a first-rounder," Woods said. "My experience has prepared me enough."
Woods said he wasn't frustrated by the fact he caught nearly 40 fewer passes than last season and didn't leave because he was upset with coach Lane Kiffin.
"If the coaches kept me another year they probably would get me the ball," Woods said.
Woods' roommate, star receiver Marqise Lee, lamented the loss of his friend and teammate.
"It's going to be real tough," Lee said. "Robert's a super playmaker."
Pendergast interviewed
Kiffin interviewed former California defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast for the vacant defensive coordinator's position, according to sources.
Pendergast meets some of Kiffin's criteria because he is familiar with Pacific-12 Conference teams and the spread offense.
USC defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin coached his last game Monday and said he will start looking for an NFL job.
"You don't like to end like this," Monte Kiffin said. "I'll be a Trojan for life."
Monte Kiffin said he didn't feel like a sacrificial lamb for the Trojans' problems.
"Not at all," he said. "We should have played better."
No offense
USC's seven points were the fewest since losing 36-7 to Oregon State in 2010. The Trojans' 205 yards in total offense was the lowest since it had 205 against Cal in 2004. The Trojans' 10 first downs were their fewest since getting 11 against Oregon State in 2001.
Lee's year in review
Lee extended his single-season Pac-12 records to 118 receptions and 1,721 yards. He also extended his conference record for combined receiving yards as a freshman and sophomore with 2,864.
Strange attire
Kiffin wore sunglasses the entire game, which shielded a scrape on his face just between his eyes.
He wore a band-aid on his forehead at a postgame news conference. A school official said Kiffin was playing with his son and suffered the wound. A second official, however, said it was caused by messing around with a player.
Harris, Markowitz are ruled ineligible
Kiffin said cornerback Torin Harris and offensive linemen Abe Markowitz were academically ineligible and unable to participate in the game.

Giants won't touch him even though his football skills are a perfect match for us at the moment. Probably to the detriment of both parties, I could see Oakland signing D.Jackson. Oakland historically signs flagged and black listed players, and DeSean apparently has ties to LA gangs so his homies would love for him to be back In the hood. That would be a perfect storm.
While I admired his skills, I never liked him as a person. While I'm no angel, I generally a good person and want the same for my team. I don't want self-absorbed and arrogant players with character issues. He definitely doesn't fit this team in the character department. I wish him luck and hopefully
He grows up and cuts ties with the darkness that will only bring him down. I don't think he will though. He probably be broke in a few years.

The successful takeover trumps a previous suitor for FerrAus, Hong Kong-based investment holding company Wah Nam.
JPMorgan says the deal "looks stretched" on resource multiples but the consolidation of assets is a big plus in the crowded and competitive Pilbara. Though the broker has an "outperform" rating on Atlas, it says the deal is slightly better for FerrAus shareholders, as it furthers Atlas' main issue of having the majority of its assets in the exploration stage.
Macquarie maintains its "outperform" rating on Atlas, noting the deal will increase the company's footprint in Western Australia but come at a cost to shareholders. The broker also does not rule out a counter-bid from a re-energised Wah Nam.

THis is my first post so i just wanna say hello to everyone first! There's a 85% chance that i will be purchasing a 2004 STi next month. I have been reading a MILLION of the posts in this forum and have gained a bit of knowledge abuot the car. I just have a quick question. SInce the car doesn't come with a radio/speakers. I was wondering how "well" compression horns would fit in the car...I used to have them in my 97 Eclipse GS-T and they sound AWESOME!!! i don't think i can ever go back to a regular component audio set after being spoiled with the horns. I am just afraid that i would kick the horns because they mount right above your feet (under the steering column). Anyone in here have these type of speakers installed and could give me some feedback? BTW, i'm totally looking forward to getting a 04 Black STi...!!! I wan't really impressed with the styling of the car but after one test drive i was SOLD!!!! ok i'll stop rambling now. THANKS IN ADVANCE!
ps i have attached a pic of the horns that i want to install on the car.

West Africa Leaders 'Disturbed' by UN Report on Mali Army Plan
West African leaders said they were "disturbed by the seeming lack of urgency" about the need for a rapid military intervention in Mali from United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
The Economic Community of West African States "deplores" that recommendations in a report about the Malian crisis published by Ban last week are "not in line with the urgent need for action," according to a statement published on the 15- member bloc's website yesterday. Ecowas "believes the situation in northern Mali urgently requires action as well as pro-active measures to restore the territorial integrity of the country."
African leaders are developing a plan to intervene in Mali, which vies with Tanzania as Africa's third-biggest gold producer. A coup in March left a power vacuum in Bamako, the capital, that allowed ethnic Touareg rebels to take control of the north, aided by Islamist groups including Ansar ud-Din and al-Qaeda's African branch.
In a report to the Security Council on Nov. 28, Ban said plans for an African-led intervention force to train Mali's army and help local troops take back control of the north "need to be developed further."
"Fundamental questions of how the force would be led, sustained, trained, equipped and financed remain unanswered," he said. Funding for combat operations should come through "voluntary or bilateral contributions" rather than from the UN, Ban said.
"The United Nations has limited ability to deliver a support package in the near term to a combat force," he said.
Member states of Ecowas on Nov. 11 committed 3,300 troops to train, equip and prepare about 5,000 Malian soldiers for the fight for control of the north.
The African Union and Ecowas will send diplomats to the UN headquarters in New York to reiterate the need for intervention, according to Ecowas.

Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, along with other local and state partners, battled freezing temperatures and winter precipitation throughout the night to keep major corridors open in northern portions of the state.
Even as the weather conditions improve today, DOTD advises motorists to stay off the roads until it is safe to travel. Travel could be treacherous. Motorists should be mindful that icy conditions may still be present. Additionally, slowly rising temperatures are not an immediate indicator of the change in the status on a roadway or bridge. After an extended period of time of below freezing temperatures and frozen precipitation, it may take a while for some roads to thaw.
Crews will continue to monitor conditions and will open roadways as they are deemed safe.
If you must drive, even on roads that are open, use extra caution. During winter weather conditions, motorists should follow these five safety tips:
- Drive slowly, carefully, and avoid driving while distracted
- Allow for extra driving time
- Reduce speeds when visibility is low
- Make sure there is plenty of room between vehicles
- Look out for black ice---a thin, transparent layer of ice accumulation that can be visually hard to detect on bridges, overpasses, off-ramps and in shady spots.
As always, DOTD reminds motorists to buckle up and refrain from drinking and driving. In addition, motorists need to be on the look-out for DOTD and other work vehicles applying de-icing material to area bridges and overpasses.
Motorists can access the latest updates on real-time traffic and road conditions using the 511 Traveler Information System by dialing 511 from their telephone and saying the route or region about which they are seeking information. Out-of-state travelers can call 1-888-ROAD-511 (1-888-762-3511). Travelers can also access this information by visiting the 511 Traveler Information Web site at www.511la.org.
Additionally, motorists can utilize the new "Way to Geaux" application to receive real-time, around the clock travel alerts. The hands-free, eyes-free smartphone application can be downloaded on any iPhone or Android device by visiting either the iTunes App Store, or Google Play.

Bay Of Islands Fishing – 25 Pound Snapper For Danielle
Posted by andrew1 under Bay Of Islands Charter Fishing
[28] Comments
The Snapper in the Bay Of Islands still continue to fire with 2 great trips today. Danielle and partner Joe were lucky enough to be on both trips and though Danielle gave the more experienced Joe a "whipping" in terms of fished hook, Joe still appeared to have a great time and still caught plenty of nice snapper on Soft bait. The best fish of the day was around 25 pounds – released of course – and caught by Danielle.

Tales of Chinatown HTML version
The Daughter Of Huang Chow
In the saloon bar of a public-house, situated only a few hundred yards from the
official frontier of Chinatown, two men sat at a small table in a corner, engaged in
earnest conversation. They afforded a sharp contrast. One was a thick-set and
rather ruffianly looking fellow, not too cleanly in either person or clothing, and,
amongst other evidences that at one time he had known the prize ring,
possessing a badly broken nose. His companion was dressed with that
spruceness which belongs to the successful East End Jew; he was cleanly
shaven, of slight build, and alert in manner and address.
Having ordered and paid for two whiskies and sodas, the Jew, raising his glass,
nodded to his companion and took a drink. The glitter of a magnificent diamond
which he wore seemed to attract the other's attention almost hypnotically.
"Cheerio, Freddy!" said the thick-set man. "Any news?"
"Nothing much," returned the one addressed as Freddy, setting his glass upon
the table and selecting a cigarette from a packet which he carried in his pocket.
"I'm not so sure," growled the other, watching him suspiciously. "You've been
lying low for a long time, and it's not like you to slack off except when there's
something big in sight."
"Hm!" said his companion, lighting his cigarette. "What do you mean exactly?"
Jim Poland--for such was the big man's name--growled and spat reflectively into
a spittoon.

Recital by Madeleine Carab
Madeleine Carabo, a young Amerlcan violinist who studied in Chicago and New York and has played in the Middle West, made her local debut yesterday afternoon at Town Hall. Although she listed a far-ranging program of works by Vitali, Vivaldi-Respighi, Schelling, Lalo and others, it served no better purpose than to reveal her palpable unreadiness for the serious test of a New York debut.

At least 31 people have been killed, 52 houses and 16 vehicles burnt after a disagreement over ownership of a football arena set off sectarian violence in northern Nigerian state of Taraba, officials said on Sunday.
Scores were also injured in the fracas which the state acting governor Garba Umar tried to quell by declaring a round-the-clock curfew in the Wukari city where the crisis emanated late on Saturday.
"We have arrested more than forty people so far and we are doing everything possible to bring the crisis under control," state police spokesperson TY Mohammed told PTI over phone while confirming the death toll.
Residents of Wukari were forced to flee their homes to take refuge in neighbouring towns.

After Thirty Seven Years
Two old and friendly organizations meet again on the same battle front. They are the second Battalion of the Royal Welch Fusiliers and the U. S. Marines who, in 1900, participated jointly in the Relief Expedition of China. The Fusiliers were ordered from the British garrison at Hong Kong last month while the Marines were already stationed in Shanghai. However, missing are the Commanders of the days of 1900-Colonel Bertie and Captain Gwynn-of the Fusiliers whose place is taken by Colonel Hewitt; and of the U. S. Marines. Colonel Waller, whose place is taken by General Beaumont.

QuranReading.com shares 'Five Life Changing Verses of Quran' to contemplate over.
[Click on Image to Enlarge]
Inna Ma'al Usre Yusra
As per the custom of that time, the Mushrikeen visited the Kabah for Hajj. On one such instance, Qais too joined the delegation. The Prophet (sa), despite being in the minority, would promote his religion to the strangers. He would make efforts, and take out time to meet the people who had come to Makkah for Hajj.
He met Qais and presented Islam to him. Qais attentively listened to the Prophet (sa), and acknowledged that what he was being presented was a glorious religion. He asked for time to contemplate conversion. The Prophet (sa) desired that the husband of a devoted religious woman embraced Islam as well, therefore, he prolonged his dialogue with Qais. Qais, however, kept asking for more time to consider. The Prophet (sa), then asked Qais about his unkind treatment towards his wife. He instructed him to fear Allah (swt), and to promise him that he will never say anything to his distressed wife. Qais promised that he would do as the Prophet (sa) instructed and would never again be cruel to his wife.
Do not delay the opportunity to do good. You might miss the chance.
When Qais returned to Madinah, he informed Hawa (ra) about his meeting with the Messenger of Allah (sa), and his promise to him. He assured her that from then onwards he would never torment her. Hawa (ra) was relieved to hear that.
"Verily, with the hardship, there is relief (i.e. there is one hardship with two reliefs, so one hardship cannot overcome two reliefs)." (Ash-Shath 94:6)
Hawa (ra) could then freely practice her religion. She openly declared her faith because she had no one to be fearful about. After a little time had passed, the Prophet (sa), being a true leader and well-wisher, asked about Hawa (ra) and her husband's treatment. He was informed that she lived in peace.
People teased Qais about his wife's conversion. He informed them of his promise to the Prophet (sa) and his will to honour it.
Qais had honoured his promise to the Prophet (sa). However, he kept waiting for the right time to embrace Islam, and missed his chance. Qais was killed as an idolater. He saved Hawa's life in this world and the hereafter, but could not save his own hereafter.
Hawa (ra) attended his gatherings, learnt the religion and taught it to her son Thabith ibn Qais. She strove hard in religion and attained the status of being a Hadeeth Narrator.
Lessons to draw: Do not delay the opportunity to do good. You might miss the chance. Because Hawa (ra) only depended upon Allah (swt), He helped her in a miraculous way. With every difficulty there is ease, strengthen your faith in Allah (swt).
Life as a Widow
When the Prophet (sa) migrated to Madinah, Hawa (ra) attended his gatherings, learnt the religion and taught it to her son Thabith ibn Qais. She strove hard in religion and attained the status of being a Hadeeth Narrator. This is how Allah (swt) honours those who are willing to remain steadfast in their trials, and give precedence to religion over anything in the world.
May Allah (swt) also make us of those He honours. Ameen.
Lessons to draw: When you have taken the step to draw closer to Allah (swt), He will test you. He will put you through trials to separate the wheat from the chaff. How truly dedicated and honest are you in your service and commitment to Islam? Be brave. Don't let Shaytan weaken your resolution.

I sample the "summer peach" color and had to buy a full size.
This gloss is nice to your lips. It leaves them moisturized. It isn't really sticky, but consequently you'll have to reapply every few hours. Fading is highly noticeable though.
The peach color is a nude with just a shade of pink to it.

Our Vision
The Youth For Christ International Coaching Vision is that all YFC staff value quality ministry coaching and have it available in a language they understand on request.
A wonderful example of someone who has received coaching as a young leader is Melody Winters. Melody received coaching in the Young Leader Development and Empowerment Process. She shares some of her testimony below:
Maybe you're like me- a bit of a "to do" list person. As I look at the list of assignments and tasks given to those of us going through the Youth for Christ Young Leader Development and Empowerment process I've seen them as a challenge or mission to get stuck in and get the things on the list done.
In some ways I've approached the process in this way to help me get motivated. This kind of motivation kicked into gear when a friend with Youth for Christ in Australia e-mailed me to ask if I would be her 'coachee' as she went through the Youth for Christ coaching training process. She is a good friend so I knew it would be a joy to journey with her through the process and of course I was keen to accomplish the coaching requirement of the course!
In my journey with the Lord there have been several times that as I've pushed myself to accomplish tasks God, in His wisdom, has caused the timing to perfectly coincide with what He was leading me into next. This time was no different. God, in His perfect timing, ordered my steps to begin the coaching process just as I was forming a new ministry. Being coached during that process turned out to be an invaluable gift to my life personally and to my ministry development. Every time I spoke with my coach I knew there would be challenges I'd have to work to overcome and issues that I'd somehow need to work out a solution to but in the midst of it all it was the phenomenal blessing of having someone there to pray for me, celebrate my successes and facilitate my brainstorming.
Yes, being coached is on the "to do" list of the YFC Young Leader Development and Empowerment requirements but my prayer and hope for me and my fellow young leaders is that the personal growth, the challenges we will overcome, and the victories we will get to celebrate in the process will make it well worth the journey and more than just another thing we need to do.
Thanks to everyone who has given financially that young leaders like me may be blessed by this tool that Youth for Christ is making available to us!
What is Coaching?
Coaching is…
- The asking of powerful questions that help someone get from where they are to where they want to go.
- A process of clarifying and honing our goals so that what we do has a greater effect.
- An hour with someone, once month or once a week or whenever, who believes in you, and supports you, and holds you accountable to your plans and dreams.
- A way of releasing yourself into greater service for Christ
- A means of increasing the chance that your project/program/outreach event will actually go well and honour Christ.
- A way to serve each other in our YFC community and a way to serve those outside of it in order to build bridges and empower others.
- A catalyst for change when things have stalled or gone dry in a centre
- A way of helping those who have just entered the organization or are pioneering a new program or event.
- A set of skills that helps leaders to encourage problem solving in their team members, setting them free to work more efficiently on tasks.
- A respectful way of working with staff that encourages them to believe the truth - God has given them a unique vision and giftedness to work for the kingdom.

Escarole is a type of endive (a leaf vegetable) that is known for its tastiness and versatility in preparation. Escarole is also known by such names as broad chicory or common chicory and using it in salads gives it a distinct difference that makes eating the greens quite enjoyable.
Escarole has broad outer leaves, and has a slightly bitter taste, which is a characteristic of the endive family. But although it is bitter, it is not as bitter as any other members of the endive family. The outer layers of the escarole are dark green but after peeling back a layer, it will reveal a slightly lighter shade of green. Each layer will reveal a slightly lighter shade of green, and as the leaves lighten in color, the bitterness will also significantly lessen. What this means is that in preparing a dish, one can use different layers of escarole in order to achieve a particular taste that one wants.
The simplest dish that can be prepared with escarole is an endive salad. With this dish, the lighter leaves are used and gently torn into smaller pieces. The leaves are then tossed with a vinaigrette or a dressing made with mayonnaise and sugar. After being lightly tossed, cherry tomatoes are cut in half and then added -- also added raisins and croutons to add a depth of flavor and texture.
Escarole can also be cooked as part of many different kinds of dishes. For example, the darker and more bitter outer leaves can be used for braising and steaming.

War Rocket Ajax #125: Kevin Church on 'Wander,' Webcomics and Elliot Gould
This week on War Rocket Ajax, Kevin Church joins us to talk about writing Wander, his new comic with Grace Allison for Monkeybrain. The discussion gets onto his ambivalence towards fantasy and his influences, and you can listen to the whole show right here at ComicsAlliance!War Rocket Ajax #125: Ugly Leading Man with Kevin Church
We are available on iTunes! Click here to find ComicsAlliance Presents War Rocket Ajax in iTunes, where you can subscribe and leave us a review if you enjoy the show!
You can also stream the show using the player above, or download it in MP3 format from WarRocketAjax.com.
In this week's episode, Chris is celebrating his 30th birthday with a trip to Los Angeles, and Matt has opinions about the Olympics! Fortunately, we seem to have recovered from the exposure to Sonic the Hedgehog fan-art that we suffered last week.
When Kevin joins us, the conversation turns to why it's strange that Kevin would be launching a fantasy title with Wander, since he doesn't particularly care for the genre:
I think that actually helped me a little bit. Kind of like when someone who's not super into science fiction gets an angle on it. I have read the first three and a half Game of Thrones books, I was midway through the fourth one when I decided I needed to take a little break, but in the case of something like that, you're looking at something that's much more about political maneuvering and things like that, versus elves and dwarves and dragons and what have you.
Wander being fantasy, the premise of the series is that we're going to see multiple genres as it goes on. That's why the first arc is "Olive Hopkins in the 9th Kingdom." The second arc — probably the first arc's going to be eight to ten issues — the second arc, we're going to see Olive move into another genre. One of the things I want to do is that I'm really tired of people talking about how meta things are, but I want to try my hand at writing different genres that I wouldn't ordinarily be that into, and second of all, doing comedy, or doing something that is at least pleasing to me as a reader and as a writer, in these genres. I like a lot of science fiction. So little of it has any humor in it that is not obviously just straight up parody. I'm not the world's biggest Joss Whedon fan, but I'll give him a lot of credit for having a lot of organic humor in stuff like Firefly.
That's another thing: I'm going to keep the tone fairly light, but we're going to see themes cropping up through the series that are going to be slightly more difficult.
Plus, we get off on a long tangent about '70s movies!

Comics Reviewed:
Action Comics #12: "The actual trajectory of this story is really intersting, and it really moves. I like how quickly it moves, introducing all the Mr. Mxyzptlk stuff and getting to that right away, and making no pretext, no effort to dragging out this new secret identity any further than it needed to go." "I would much rather have a book like this that's maybe a little too fast than one that was too slow."
Archer & Armstrong #1: "This issue is fantastic. I loved it." "It's political, but here's the thing: We get some of Archer's inner monologue in the middle of this comic, and he makes some strong points! It is very obvious that Van Lente is making fun of that lifestyle in the early pages, but Archer's not an idiot."
Batman #12: "The character that we're introduced to, the one who's the first-person narrator for the issue, is a great character who I really hope we're going to see again." "I referred to her as the New 52 Harold, which I think has the potential to be 100% accurate. Harold is no longer a Hunchback, he is now a teenage hipster electronics genius. Exciting!"

Yeah - three whole days since my last post... I think the NaBloMoPo excitement has finally worn off. Unfortunately (as I am sure you will be able to tell) I now don't think I can put together a coherent blog post... oh well.
This week I have been sick. AGAIN. This time though I decided to use some of my sick days (hell - they get reset at the end of the month anyways) and actually focus on getting better instead of feeling this nagging urge to go to work and save the world. I think it is working... last time I was sick for two weeks and completely lost my voice... this time I am already on the mend four days later. Sleep is a wonderful thing.
I am probably a little more excited than one should be about the new Anne of Green Gables movie... every time I see the commercial I resist the urge to squeal like a schoolgirl. Seriously. And what is this crap about her not being an actual orphan? I guess I will have to wait the two weeks to find out all the deets.
On that note... I have been counting down the days until the next Hallmark Hall of Fame movie as well... yes - my life is pathetic and if I don't let out a good cry while watching this movie I will be very upset with myself. I just checked out the website and there have been 233 prior HHOF (not to be confused with Hockey Hall of Fame) movies... I have some serious catching up to do. There is nothing like crying buckets to a movie I tell you.
OK... that is enough insight into the exciting life I lead for now... I must go have my customary afternoon nap now...

Dunnes told Muslim worker she couldn't wear her hijab
A FORMER sales assistant at Dunnes Stores has claimed she was unable to go to work because she was not permitted to wear a religious headdress there.
Loreta Tavoraite (35), who is originally from Lithuania, began working in a Dunnes Stores in Ballincollig in Cork in July 2007.
She later converted to Islam and for religious reasons wanted to wear a hijab -- a headscarf that covers the hair, leaving the face exposed -- at work.
Ms Tavoraite, of Parknamore in Ballincollig, is suing Dunnes, of 46-50 South Great George's Street, Dublin, for unfair dismissal. An Employment Appeals Tribunal (EAT) in Cork was told yesterday that staff at Dunnes wear a standard uniform.
Her solicitor Patrick Horan said his client was told she "couldn't come to work wearing a hijab".
"As far as she was concerned, being a devout Muslim, you must wear a hijab. It's an obligation," said Mr Horan.
"Her view was I'm ready to work. I want to work, but because of my religion I have to wear a hijab."
In October 2010 Ms Tavoraite met with Bill Farrell, store manager at the Ballincollig store, and the human resources manager.
She explained her religion involved covering her head with a hat or scarf while in public.
Mr Farrell told Ms Tavoraite that her religion was her own business and her business only.
Ms Tavoraite was repeatedly advised by the company that they wanted her to return to work but she never did.
At meeting in early November 2010, she was informed that if she continued not coming to work they would have to consider her contract and that it might be terminated.
She was dismissed from her position on November 6, 2010.
Asked by Mr Horan what would happen if a member of staff came into work wearing a chain and cross, Mr Farrell said he had never encountered such a situation.
The hearing continues.

Updated at 11:25 a.m.
The intersection of Old Lee Highway and Hilltop Road has reopened after an early morning accident that police said left two people dead.
About 1:50 a.m. Monday, Fairfax police said a police officer tried to pull over the driver of a car for allegedly driving while intoxicated, and the vehicle fled the area and crashed. Police said the car crashed into a tree.
Two of the people in the vehicle were pronounced dead at the scene, according to Officer Bud Walker. A third person was transported with life-threatening injuries to an area hospital.
Police have not released the individuals' names because their relatives have not been notified.
The road reopened about 9 a.m.
Original post at 6:02 a.m.
Fairfax County police said Monday that an accident closed Old Lee Highway at Hilltop Road near Merrifield.
It was not immediately known when the road, often used as a cut-through between Interstate 66 and Lee Highway, would reopen, officials said.
The accident occurred just after 1 a.m. Police said investigators were still on the scene as of 6 a.m. Details of what happened were not available, but initial reports showed that one vehicle appeared to have gone into a ditch.
It was also not immediately known how many people were involved in the accident, although police said at least one person was transported to an area hospital.

|I own a 2 year old Maytag washer that has begun stopping in mid wash cycle. I open it up and it is full of water and clothes and it is shut off. I pull and push the timer knob and nothing happens. I rotate the timer knob anywhere on the dial, pull and push it and still nothing. After about 15 or 20 minutes or so I can go back and pull the knob and it will start again.
At some points in some cycles, notably the spin part of the cycle, when I start it up, the drum starts spinning for about 20 seconds and then the motor starts to hum loudly for about 20 seconds and it shuts off again.
Once it comes back on again I can move the timer to other parts of different cycles and it seems to wash fine. If I point it to one particular spin spot in the cycle I get the loud hum and shutdown again.
Help and thanks!

|does it constantly do this or intermittent? does the front of the machine feel warm? do you smell anything? if so, does it smell electrical or rubberish? you may need to pull the front off by taking the two 5/16 screws out of the lower panel and second panel if it has a split panel in front. now take the two out of the top panel and roll it up. pop the tub cover, has spaps on side of outer tub, and see if you anything under it. no, may be a bad motor or something in the pump causing it to bind and overheat.

|It is intermittent. In fact, it has been working fine for the past few days. There is no odor when it happens that I can tell. I did try helping to rotate the drum manually once while it was failing and it did not help it spin up. It was like the motor was straining but the extra push didn't seem to help get it moving.
I will check the temp of the front the next time it fails but would an over heating motor actually make the outside of the washer warm?
I am unsure what to check next. How can I check the pump?

|subject: maytag washer overheating over heat motor
Well I am still having this problem.
I have determined that the motor overheat protector is tripping. I checked it with an ohmmeter and it is open after the washer stops. Once it trips I can touch the motor and it is hot but with no smell at all.
When this happens I let it cool, push the timer back in and it starts to spin. The washer makes more noise that it normally does when this is happening and after about 1 minute the motor thermal breaker trips. I do it a few more times then it will spin while not making the louder noise and will not trip the thermal.
It seems like some times the motor is having to work a bit harder than it is supposed to during the start of the spin cycle. It is not every time though. While this is happening I unplugged the washer and was able to turn the belt by hand without much trouble. The washer is not overloaded when this happens.
Could the transmission have an intermittent problem where it is harder to spin?
Anyone else have any other similar problem?

Bored bear, too
Your bear looks pretty bored, too. Clearly heading off to the Yellowstone equivalent of Denny's.
Lovely footage, though - especially that final yawn as it heads away.
It must be said that your location does look very uninspiring, zooming in on the Google satellite map. It's all grey buildings and empty roads. Go somewhere else and post some more interesting messages quick!

Here is the URL of our Yellowstone Bear video on Youtube.
Boy, are we bored....this place has absolutely nothing to do in it...and that's confirmed by two locals.
We set of into town to see what we could see....and returned immediately - our views fully in congruence with the locals.
We did go out again later to the nearby dam. They have loads of dams along the Columbia and its tributaries. What was interesting was the visitors centre which focused on supporting the salmon population. The salmon has a weird lifecycle which has them hatching high up the Snake, gaining some weight and then kinda all deciding to swim to the sea for a few years to grow up. During the swim to the sea they alter physically and chemically to be able to survive in sea water. Then, after a few years, once they are adults they swim back up river to spawn. Once the fertilized eggs are buried at the bottom of the river then all the adults die. Huh?
How the hell did that evolve?
Anyway sticking a load of dams in the way of all this didn't do it for the salmon - but fortunately the Yanks spotted this and built in both fish ladders - for swimming up-river and then this amazing set of large pipes and separation tanks to get the young back to the sea.. inasmuch as a trip through the turbines is not good for the health of a salmon. On quite a lot of the dams they actually capture them and then ship them down river on barges!!!
After a swim in the pool back at the hotel we went to see Ocean's Thirteen - which is absolute rubbish. Same old problem of an incomprehensible script and too many stars all after their 10 minutes. Looked like 20 different script-writers had been put in separate rooms, given a sketchy plot based on TV Mission Impossible and then the producer had cobbled it all together. Notable nonsense was getting one of the Chunnel borers and drilling a tunnel under Las Vegas all under the control of one guy 24 hours and seemingly without any TV publicity. It then completely lost it when this borer broke and they replaced it with the "one that drilled from the French side". Now from what I remember this is the one and only one as the English one is buried below the Chunnel - the French one proceeding to the English side. So how they got the first one I have no idea.
Anyway don't bother going to see it - unless you are Marina/Looby in which case you'll gaze lovingly at George and won't even notice the non-existent/crap plot.
Back at the hotel we watched Shrek and then did Denny's again.
Bored bear, too

Sevens rugby fans can breathe a sigh of relief - Carlin Isles, the fastest man in rugby, is staying put and feels more like a rugby player than ever before.
Isles lit up the Sevens World Series in 2012-13 with his searing pace that had many pointing to him as the game's next superstar.
In January he signed a practice contract with NFL team, the Detroit Lions, leading many to think a switch to American football was imminent. Despite the speculation Isles confirmed to the Herald that he would be sticking with a sport where he was able to inspire others.
"I'm at that crossroad right now, I've gotta choose one or the other. That's been kinda stressful," Isles said.
"It's always in the back of my mind. I'm here to do a job and I love rugby. For me right now I'm thinking about sticking to rugby. Rugby has been a blessing to me.
"For me I love rugby and I'm not going to let football factor in m mind now.
I love rugby and that's the main focus."
While the pressures of converting to what is seen to be a more conventional sport in America were often quite high for the 24-year-old, Isles said it was a love of rugby and God that helped him overcome any internal angst caused by the difficult decision.
"Whenever I play and I can showcase what I can do that also helps me keep my mind off it, because it shows how happy I am when I'm on the field and the fun that I have out there.
"To give it up for God's glory, for people to recognise that and see my talent takes the pressure off me."
The former track star with a personal best of 10.13 seconds for the 100m sprint said he wasn't feeling any different from a year ago when he was introduced to the rugby-mad country at the 2013 Wellington Sevens.
Isles illustrated his worth as an all-round Sevens player in the Las Vegas Sevens, where he stripped an Argentinean of the ball before he passed inside and eventually ran 70 metres to equalise. Argentina would go on to win 19-12, but Isles had proved himself to his nation of his exceptional skillset.
His graduation into the starting seven illustrates the confidence that he has in the team, and - more importantly - the confidence they have in him heading into his second appearance in Wellington.
"I've learned a lot. I've just gotten used to finally being comfortable doing things I normally wouldn't do. I'm just being able to actually be confident in being a true rugby player."
One of the major spinoffs of keeping the Ohio-born Isles in rugby was helping to grow the sport in his homeland and be a part of something special with the USA Eagles.
"I think I can help it grow a lot, man. From what I've heard I've already helped it grow and I think I can make it grow even more popular than it is now.
"For me, that's a big thing and it makes me happy that I can do that and I want to make it grow even more."
Isles pledged to "put on a show" at the two-day sporting event, starting with the Eagles' first match against Argentina

Missouri Attorney General Files Locksmith Lawsuit. KCTV 5
Attorney General Koster sues unscrupulous locksmith company.
City, Mo. -- Attorney General Chris Koster took action today to stop a Florida locksmith company from deceiving and
overcharging customers in Kansas City.
According to the Attorney General, Dependable Locks, Inc., violated Missouri
law by fraudulently advertising itself by at least 16 different names that all led consumers to one company. In addition,
company workers charged consumers 2-3 times more than the price quoted them to unlock their cars.
"This locksmith
company clearly has deceived Missourians, tricking them into using their business and then overcharging them," Koster
said. "Today I filed suit to stop Dependable Locks, Inc., from defrauding customers and to make restitution to them."
Koster said investigators in the Attorney General's office also found that addresses listed for the different business
names were bogus, and led to vacant lots and even homes of individuals not associated with the company. In addition, this
locksmith company operated under business names that were not registered with the Missouri Secretary of State as required
to conduct business in Missouri.
Koster is urging anyone who believes they have been a victim of Dependable Locks,
Inc., to contact his consumer hotline at 800-392-8222 or to go online at www.ago.mo.gov.
In addition, Koster has notified
AT&T that it is carrying deceptive advertisements and demanded that the phone company take all appropriate steps to remove
the ads, including immediately removing them from electronic sites such as "The Real Yellow Pages" and yellowpages.com.
The following are some of the alternate business names used by Dependable Locks, Inc.:
Inquiries from consumers should be directed to firstname.lastname@example.com or 1-800-392-8222 (from within Missouri) or 573-751-3321 (outside Missouri).All media inquiries
should be directed to the Communications Office.E-mail Phone: 573-751-8844 Fax: 573-751-5818

How long after tummy tuck before I can start strenuous exercise and weight lifting?
Exercise After Tummy Tuck
Doctor Answers 4
Usually all restrictions are off 8 weeks after tummy tuck
Every surgeon has a different approach to recovery restrictions.
As long as the recovery is proceeding smoothly, I allow my patients to do non-impact cardio (elliptical machine, bike [not spin!]) at 3 weeks, and then begin strenuous activity (light weight lifting, jogging) at 6 weeks. All restrictions are off at 8 weeks.
Talk to your surgeon to see the regime they recommend (and do follow it! We all do different things on the inside, and only your surgeon knows what is best for you!)
Exercise after tummy tuck
I would say, safely 6-8 weeks depending on exercises, your surgery, and your exercise tolerance preop. Always start with under 10 lbs and work up slowly. You should be walking regardless at 1 week!
Web reference: Http://www.beautybyjeneby.com
Abdominoplasty and exercise
Every doctor is a bit different. But I recommend to my patients to avoid aerobic type activities for 3-4 weeks and heavy lifting or sit-ups for 6-8 weeks.
You might also like...
Patients can generally resume exercise 8 weeks after tummy tuck
This is really a question that you need to ask your surgeon. Was muscle tightened? How much was removed? Did you have a hernia? How did your recovery go?
In general at 8 weeks you should be doing everything, but you need to speak to your doctor for specifics.
These answers are for educational purposes and should not be relied upon as a substitute for medical advice you may receive from your physician. If you have a medical emergency, please call 911. These answers do not constitute or initiate a patient/doctor relationship.

You are herecontent / Iran War Talking Points
Iran War Talking Points
By David Swanson
Aiding a nation against a foreign invasion is not grounds for war. The US aided France against Germany and still brags about it.
WMD possession is not grounds for war. The US has more of them than anyone.
The motivation for attacking Iran was laid out in 2000 by the PNAC, and as early as 1992 in defense planning guidance -- written for then-Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney by then-Pentagon staffers I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, World Bank Chief Paul Wolfowitz, and ambassador-nominee to the United Nations Zalmay Khalilzad.
If the motivation for attacking Iran was aid to Iraqi resisters, the U.S. would be attacking Saudi Arabia too.
There is no evidence that Iran has nukes. NIE in 2005 said 2015 was the earliest Iran could have them.
There is no evidence that the government of Iran is involved in aiding Iraqis, a fact that Peter Pace and the CIA agree with.
The evidence that anyone in Iran is aiding Iraqis is weak. The intelligence community has refused to take part. The military is making these claims. The Iran Directorate is no more reliable (or legal) than was the Office of Special Plans. Those presenting the case are refusing to use their names or to allow any cameras in the room.
The idea that Iraqis cannot produce roadside bombs of the type described by the U.S. military is absurd. And what makes it laughable is that four years ago, the White House was telling us that Iraqis could produce long-range missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, nukes, and chemical and biological weapons.
The people pitching this Iran story are the same ones who lied to us about Iraq. And they've been lying to us about Iran in recent months, including claiming that Iran kicked out IAEA inspectors, which the IAEA denied; claiming North Korea was helping Iran with nukes, which N Korea denied and evidence refuted; and blaming incidents in Iraq on Iranian-trained fighters – claims that the facts have conflicted with.
In 1976 President Ford offered Iran the nuclear technology it is now trying to develop in the face of US opposition. In 2003, Iran proposed negotiations with the United States with everything on the table, including its nuclear technology. Bush refused.
Bush's threats and provocations are boosting support in Iran for a militaristic leader.
Threats by that leader do not justify war.
If you want to keep Iran from developing nuclear weapons, talk to Iran, work with Iran, and keep the inspectors in. Inspections worked with Iraq.
Attacking Iran would be a catastrophe for Iranians, Israelis, Americans, and others. A war could escalate dramatically.
War is a decision for Congress, not for an American monarch.

Hi David,
This is a very good piece and thank you for naming the PNAC crowd by name. Would you be able to submit this particular piece to major newspapers across the country as a "guest contributor" ? This column definately needs to be read. It is a perfectly written presentation of straight forward and simple rebuttals to the corporate media's parroting of the Bush-Cheney-PNAC administration selling of the need to invade Iran. I hope this particular piece is run in many newspagers across the country, and printed soon !

Question Time . . . "and the prize for the prettiest panellist goes to . . ."
Last Thursday I was a panellist on Question Time, the tv equivalent of Any Questions and just a bit more scary. That's partly because it's television and so if you make an idiot of yourself, it's entirely VISIBLE (though it is slightly pre-recorded so if you commit libel or blasphemy, they can cut it out). And it's partly because it's a bit more hard line politically, so presumably just a bit edgier for the professional politicians on the panel.
Actually (and predictably enough you may say) I much enjoyed it, as well as being terrified. Like Any Questions, it's rather like doing exams -- which I also remember with a combination of pleasure and fear. You have to question spot, do your revision, get your facts sorted in your head. The difference is that in the case of Question Time, the revision consists in reading all the newspapers I don't usually get time for (or wouldn't want to be caught reading), not in mugging up the set texts.
There's also that familiar sense of annoyance when the revision comes to nothing. On this occasion I had invested several hours in mugging up the British football crisis. I knew the Tory proposals for bringing back competitive school sport (just think how awful that would be ... it was, remember, competitive school sports before the 1970s that put most of us OFF exercise). And I knew what Fabio Capello earned, and what his possible severance deal was supposed to be -- and I had calculated the annual wages of the squad and how that compared to the annual grant of the British Museum (you can see what my point was going to be . . . why doesn't this country invest in what it is good at (art, music, culture), rather than football, which it isn't?
But the similarities only go so far. The other panelists didn't actually seem much like fellow candidates -- and sprung some surprises.
I had expected to like Camila Batmanghelidjh -- and indeed I did.But if you had told me a week ago that I would take great pleasure in meeting Simon Heffer or that I would find Iain Duncan Smith clever and sensible, I would have been entirely disbelieving. But that is exactly what happened: not, I think, because I am drifting generally to the right (hope I'm not), but because distant prejudices can be very misleading about how people actually are in the flesh. For that matter, Alan Johnson wasn't the bruiser I expeced him to be either.
But there was another, bigger surprise. Until I did a bit of pardonable self-googling, I had no idea that tweeters keep up a running commentary on Question Time, through the programme -- then afterwards when they are watching on iplayer (you can get a flavour here, though you might have to search back a bit). Now the good side of this is that you can get some idea of what a (not very) random group of viewers thought of the whole thing. There were plenty of good comments about the irony of finding IDS more reasonable than Alan Johnson, and some smart things for and against yours truly. Fair enough.
The creepy side, though, were the number of comments that simply homed in on what Camila and I looked like (a witch in my case!). Eventually some of the female tweeters raised the red card on this... why weren't the comments directed to what we had SAID, not our appearance. Or as one eventually aptly put it.. "next week why dont we just ask which panellist we'd like to shag".
Phew, there are some friends out there.
