During the health reform process of 2009-10 that culminated with the passage of the Affordable Care Act, I served voluntarily as a Congressional Fellow for Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) to advocate for a national improved Medicare for All health system. As traditional Medicare has done for more than 50 years, an improved Medicare for All, or single-payer, health system would improve health outcomes, lift people out of poverty, and control health care costs. Single-payer systems have been used effectively for certain populations in the United States and all over the world.
Six years later, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) has produced the results that PNHP members predicted: tens of millions of people remain without health insurance, nearly 40 million people in the United States have insurance but still can't afford necessary health care, and private insurers continue to raise the price of premiums while restricting access to care through narrower and narrower provider networks. The United States is the only industrialized nation that treats health care as a commodity rather than a human right. Our 40-year experiment with a market-based health care system has failed. It is time to end it.
Today, Physicians for a National Health Program released "Beyond the Affordable Care Act: A Physicians' Proposal for Single Payer Health Care Reform." The proposal was crafted by 39 physicians and signed by more than 2,000 physicians and medical students. I am one of the physician signers.
A national health program is the remedy for the ills of the ACA. When it is enacted, an improved Medicare for All system will immediately cover everyone living in the United States. It will remove financial barriers to care such as health insurance premiums, deductibles and co-payments, thereby eliminating under-insurance. And it will allow free choice of health provider instead of restricting patients to narrow networks.
Currently 64% of all health care spending in the United States comes from tax dollars, but we are wasting $500 billion of that on unnecessary administration. An improved Medicare for All system will streamline administration so that it is simpler for patients and health professionals. And it will empower patients and health professionals to make health decisions based on what is best for the patient, not what is best for the insurance CEO's pocketbook.
I left pediatric practice in 2007 to advocate for an improved Medicare for All health system partly because I saw the harm that our current system causes for patients and partly because I saw my colleagues, often very talented doctors, leave clinical practice in frustration.
Since 2003, there has been a model single payer health bill introduced in each new Congress in the House. It is HR 676: The Expanded and Improved Medicare for All Act. As your Senator, I will introduce a companion bill to that in the Senate, and I will work hard to build support for it in both the House and Senate. I believe that the United States can have one of the best health care systems in the world instead of the poor ranking that we have right now. And I will do all that I can to make that a reality.

From Wall Street to Salvation: Chris Potter's Painting Marathon | KCET
From Wall Street to Salvation: Chris Potter's Painting Marathon
Know anyone who traded a high finance job for plein air painting? Probably not. But in Santa Barbara, there's one: Chris Potter. He's a 37-year old "retired" Charles Schwabb stock broker, father of two, who, for the better part of the past three years, has been painting the more scenic sections of Santa Barbara County, one rendering a day, five days a week, 52 weeks a year.
Technically speaking, Potter's prolific painting project is called Postcards from Santa Barbara, a tidy little title for what is actually a grueling creative marathon. You see, when Potter made the decision a few years back to finally ditch the business suits and soul-suck of hustling numbers in an office for a living, and hatched the brilliant self-motivating plan to publicly announce to the world that his "retirement" was actually the sound of a starter's pistol going off for his art career. Cross-promotion. It's a business thing.
His painting had always been a big part of his life; he was a wicked doodler during his youth, an art major at UCSB, and was regularly seen during his days at Charles Schwabb painting frantically on his lunch breaks at various spots in downtown Santa Barbara, his tie thrown over his shoulder so as to protect it from paint splatter. Then everything changed. After the birth of his now nearly 6-year-old son Malakye, he began to plot his permanent escape into full-time painting. Some guys wouldn't take a chance like this, but Potter, with the full support of his wife and "muse" Julie, zigged instead of zagged. Presented on a daily basis at his stock broker job with examples of people who "had everything but really didn't have anything," Chris sketched out a plan to ensure that he and his family would not suffer a similar fate. "Basically, I realized that if I didn't start [painting full-time] now, I would be 50 years-old and still a stock broker," he confessed. "I didn't want that."
And so, with the thoroughness that you would expect from someone with a background in finance, Potter, who, in person, is about as laid-back and agreeable of a dude as you can meet, set certain fiscal goals for his art sales that he had to reach before giving his notice to Charles Schwabb. Developing his plein air chops during his aforementioned lunch breaks and on weekends for a number of years, Potter, who was more of an abstract artist during his college years, ramped up both his painting efforts and his marketing, hosting regular art shows outside in the courtyard of the apartment building in downtown Santa Barbara where he and his family lived and hanging his stuff virtually anywhere that would have him. In the fall of 2009, when he reached the magic number of money in the bank and commissioned art work orders line up, he took the leap. Then the economy crashed. "Everybody said I was crazy." says Potter with the easy going laugh of a person who knows better but isn't going to rub your face in it. "But I got lucky and things just sort of fell into place."
It has been with tireless work ethic, borderline fanatic focus, and a touch of madness that Potter has approached the canvas in the time since. Fitting his daily sessions in between daddy duties, his wife's work schedule, and the every important light, he has painted in the foothills before sunrise, at the beach in the heat of the day, on the end of Sterns Wharf by moonlight and on the steps of the County Courthouse in the wind and rain. His oil paints celebrating moments of Santa Barbara's vast and varied beauty in such a way that, to a stranger, they are simply something lovely to look at but, to a anyone with a more intimate knowledge of this part of the world, they are a pitch perfect capture of the local landscape's more personal and private views. You are just as likely to find yourself looking at the neon light of a dive bar or a beloved neighborhood corner store in a Potter painting as you are to see the moon rising over the waters of Rincon or the late afternoon light spiraling into a secret swimming hole in the Santa Ynez mountains. Reckoning that the beach is his preferred subject, Potter explains his location decisions simply. "Not only do I want to be outside but I want it to be in the coolest spot possible to hang out, it has to be someplace you would want to be even if you weren't painting." he says before adding as an afterthought, "And, if I can have a little shade and water that is cool too, but I don't need it."
By his own counting, Potter figures he has roughly 725 paintings under his belt since the Postcards project officially started. The pace, he says, has taken its toll. "It is too much art. I've realized recently that this isn't like a 9 to 5 job, it takes more out of you. And, if I am always painting, then I am not looking around enough. I'm not seeing things the way that I can. A big part of my process, I've learned, is to enjoy the process." He claims that this realization has him down-shifting these days and seeking a less stressful pace of living and creating but then, literally two sentences later, he admits that the light from this month's recent full moon had him up and pacing in his house while his wife, son and daughter all slept. He ended up having to talk himself out of jumping in his van and racing up to a certain vantage point in the hills to paint the ocean shimmer before the sunrise. "I just feel awkward on the days that I don't paint." he says as a sort of explanation for his pre-dawn internal conflict and you can't help but get the feeling that next time around the urge to paint will most likely win.

Acts 1:4-8New International Version (NIV)
4 On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. 5 For John baptized with[a] water, but in a few days you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit."
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?"
7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

Preservation & co.
Jason's story
Jason has a background in hospitality. Working 17 years in bars and restaurants from the busser position, to the GM, and every front of the house job in-between. It is through this understanding of food and service that Preservation & co. was created. He started the company in 2011 as a hobby and creative outlet, while serving as the General Manager of Pour House in Sacramento. In November of 2012, shortly after Pour House opened, he entered a recipe into the National Absolut Bloody Mary Search. After taking first place in CA, he took the silver medal at the National event in NY. Silver medal ended up being the best place to be in, as the recipe for 1st place was trademarked by Absolut. 2nd place only went home with a laptop bag and a pair of shoes, but was able to take that recipe and turn it into a thriving company.

At a time when we've become accustomed to music venues closing down all over the country, it's refreshing to have the opening of a new, purpose-built club and live venue to celebrate.
Even with its location in the commercial behemoth that is The O2 complex in Greenwich, the 2,600-capacity Matter is pleasingly intimate. The people behind London's iconic Fabric nightclub have created a hi-tech space – all grey colours and steel – with the look of a blinged-up warehouse.
It's obvious that a lot of money and thought have been invested in Matter, from the LCD TVs in the ceilings to rather less hi-tech – but just as valuable – features such as the good views of the stage offered on all three levels. The banks of amphitheatre-style seats around the back of the main room are another clever touch.
Breaking in the latest addition to the capital's gig circuit was Fabric resident DJ James Lavelle's experimental project UNKLE, with Carl Cox following on for the inaugural club night on the Saturday.
Support came from the rap-rockers Iglu & Hartley and the ludicrous Late of the Pier, who managed simultaneously to bemuse and galvanise the crowd, especially on the bonkers "The Bears Are Coming". However, much of the buzz centred on the rare chance to see UNKLE perform with many of their previous collaborators.
Unfortunately, the biggest name of the lot, Ian Brown, never materialised because of illness, appearing in recorded form only for a nonetheless dramatic "Reign". One of those who did make it was The Cult's Ian Astbury, and when he or the other vocalists – including a sunglasses-clad Lavelle – were at the mic, they provided a welcome focus for the songs.
Matter's much-hyped "bodykinetic" dance floor, consisting of 80 transducers pounding to the music, was perfectly suited to UNKLE's mass-guitar assault, as were the mightily impressive visuals, projected not only behind and beside the stage, but also on to the ceiling. Still, it wasn't until the encore and "Eye for an Eye" from 2003's Never, Never, Land that everything clicked, despite the best efforts of the energetic band that Lavelle has collected.
It'll be interesting to see how Matter manages to balance its live and club duties, but on this showing it's a long overdue breath of fresh air for the London music scene.

Yet another teacher has made headlines after it emerged she was sleeping with one of her male students.
Katie Cross, an English Literature teacher, was caught having sex with the 17 year old in the back of a car, and after police were called, the whole sorry saga came out.
She has now been suspended from her job at Collegium Charter School, which is probably the least of her worries.
The relationship lasted for seven months, which is a pretty long time when you consider the fact that they had to hide it from everyone, with the 31 year old finally being busted and charged by police.
Cross, from Chester County was charged with sexual assault, unlawful contact with a minor and related offenses, and it's pretty clear that she won't be teaching again.

"Bone-Breaking" News – Outlandish Inland Asanas
On the eve of the first International Day of Yoga – "Yoga Yaga" – on 21st June 2015, "The Trance-Atlantique Science Digest," a young magazine engaged in "sciensational" reporting, issued an emergency advisory: "People who cannot withstand headstands and handstands should avoid grandstand exercises to project themselves as outstanding "yogis" and upstanding upholders of ancient Indian culture. Such exercises and gimmicks may cause bone-and-nerve injuries beyond the limits of current "yogopaedic" medicine.
The much-awed magazine has also made "bone-tingling" prognostications (in its 31 June 2015 "Yummy Yoga!" special edition) about the imminent emergence of certain game-changer yogic practices and solutions, as indicated hereunder:
- Bhrashtachar Nirmoolan Asana & Bhrashtachar Samarthan Asana: Contemporary-generation postures and gestures for corruption-prevention, as well as corruption-promotion.
- Balaatkaar Nivaran & Nirvan Asana: A structured course of fast-action, high-power defence drills to fend off molesters, gang-rapists and other "practitioners of rapism."
- Bharat Vikas Maha Asana: A path-breaking yogic regimen to be executed every morning by 1.25 billion Indians (SavaaSau Karod Desh Vasis) to achieve 100% growth-rate in just one year.
- Swachh Bharat Kriya Yoga: A custom-designed activity to be performed every morning, just before "Bharat Vikas Maha Asana," by 1.25 billion Indians to "wish away" all the rubbish and rubble of India in a matter of a mere 6 months.
- Shadyantra Tantra Asana: A one-of-a-kind game-plan of fiendish manipulations and manoeuvres devised to quietly strangle political opposition.
- SwaRaje Vikraya Yoga: A suite of bending and twisting "workouts" to "sell" India and save "fugitives from justice."
- Krishadhan Punah-Praapti Hatha Yoga: A hot-new sequence of illusively rigorous movements to completely and quickly retrieve pitch-black money stashed offshore.
- Niraatankvadi Mantra Yoga: A cutting-edge cocktail of meditation-mediation-intimidation techniques to "abolish" terrorism.
- Ardha Chandra Namaskaar: An innovative series of 27.5 postures for fly-by-nighters to salute the crescent moon and seek "her" blessings for the success of their covert operations.
- IndiaGate Dhyaana-Yoga: A breathtaking combo package of meditation and yogasana to perpetrate the "great-grandmother of all scams" and then vanish into thin air with "Adrshya Asana."
- Moun Mohan Simha Mudra: An infra-ancient ritual, whose practitioners "zip their fingertips," and acquire meta-natural powers to "zip their lips" and sit "Rock of Gibraltar-like" in the eye of earth-shattering tsunamis in their lives and careers. This mudra was redesigned and put to "dumbstrikingly" deadly effect by MaMo Pradhan, a lion-king that developed humongous "will-not power" to save its throne. This effect is now being gleefully and gratefully rediscovered and relished by MaMo's opponents more than by his proponents in JanaAranya, under various oddball labels such as, "Prime Zen," "Zenith Zen," "Mum Mohan Mudra," "Pradhan Proper Moun," "Den Zen," and "Udasin Asan".
- "International Raja Yoga" a.k.a. "World Raja Yoga": A sovereign yogic application to acquire the "prime yoga" (yoga= fortune) to jet-hop across the world, on "national-duty holiday", every other weekend.
This sciensational magazine foresees the development of "Yog–hurt" and "Yolk–hurt" – two antidotes to counteract "yogopaedic" complications, the first for lacto-veggies and the latter for "egg-eatarians" or "yolk folks," indulging in forced and harmful yogic stunts.
The magazine goes further to speculate that "Yog" ("Yoga," in Hindi parlance) will dominate the early-morning-sports scenario across the globe and "yogging" (performing "yoga") will beat the early-morning daylights and delights out of "jogging!" Yoggers (people who love to "yog," i.e., "do yoga") will, from now on, passionately and fashionably sport, "Yog whole hog" on their A to Z shirts. And there will be a great-grand project to raise "Yoggers' Parks" all across the map.

From the sublime philosophy of Yoga Darshana to the blatant, zillion-dollar "Yoga Industry" of today, herded by rock-star monks, pompous cine-dolls, rapacious gamesters, mercenary politicos, silver-spoon socialites, yoga marketeers-racketeers-tricksters, and such other worthies on the current "Yogue Gallery" – Oh! What a complete picture of "Shirshasana!" Patanjali must have been blown away by this "inverted skyjacking" – this "Viyoga" of original Yoga – and must be doing "Shava–Shirshasana" in his 2000-year old grave, right now. – The Trance-Atlantique Science Digest.

Brookwood School
Title: Director of Finance and Operations
Date: April 2017
Position Start Date: July 1, 2017
About Brookwood
Brookwood School was founded in 1956 and recently celebrated 60 years of excellence in elementary and middle school education. Serving approximately 370 students in grades Pre-Kindergarten through eighth grade, Brookwood provides an academically challenging education through a child-centered program focused on building 21st century skills and the values of conscience, character, compassion and cultural competence. With a strong sense of community and mission, Brookwood offers a collaborative work environment for more than 90 faculty and staff who go the extra mile to do what is best for children.
Position Summary
The Director of Finance and Operations oversees all aspects of the school's finances and operations with primary responsibilities of strategic financial planning, budgeting, accounting and reporting, and overseeing school operations. The position reports to the Head of School and serves as a key member of the senior leadership team and several Board of Trustees committees. The position works closely with the Head, trustees and the leadership team. The ideal candidate is a mission-driven strategic thinker who has superb people skills, uncompromising judgment and integrity, and a demonstrated commitment to equity and inclusion. The candidate will have the ability to balance and prioritize the competing needs of the school and be fair but firm when necessary.
The Campus
Brookwood is located 25 miles north of Boston on the coast in Manchester, MA on a beautiful 30-acre wooded campus. The physical plant includes a pond, wetland spaces, forest areas and open green space. The 130,000 square foot facility sits under one roof with construction ranging from the original 1900 stable (now housing grades 6-8) to the 2014 project of a state-of-the-art lower school, dining commons and kitchen. In addition to grade level classrooms, there are five outdoor classrooms, two music rooms, three art studios and a kiln room, four science labs and science gym, a library with a 15,000 volume collection, an Idea Lab, a gymnasium and a multi-purpose theater/gymnasium space, two synthetic turf fields, and well-appointed outdoor play spaces. The surrounding area of Cape Ann is filled with beautiful natural and historical attractions such as beaches, parks, preserves, museums and hiking trails that are used frequently by our students, employees and families alike.
Challenges and Opportunities
The next Director of Finance and Operations will oversee an operating budget of $12 million supported by an endowment of $12 million. Like most independent schools across the country, Brookwood finds itself facing the challenge of affordability, including pricing and financial aid pressures, for its current and future families. To that end, the Director of Finance and Operations will play an integral role in developing a strategic road map for the future of the school. Brookwood will begin a strategic planning process in the coming year and the Director will work closely with the Head of School, other senior administrators and the Board of Trustees in guiding the future direction of the school. This will also include assessing long-term capital needs identified in the strategic plan. In addition, as a key member of the senior administrative team, the new Director must forge strong relationships with the Head of School, Board members, and faculty and staff, and identify any gaps in service to the mission of the school.
To Apply
Interested and qualified candidates should email a cover letter, résumé and list of five references with contact information to Cathy Marrero, Executive Assistant to the Head of School (firstname.lastname@example.com).

For the second time this month, the Texas Supreme Court, that oh-so-wise crew of legal geniuses, has handed the Dallas Observer a victory in a libel case.
Hey, it's good to know that some government agencies work, and we mean that sincerely, without bias.
On September 10, the Supreme Court declined to review a decision by a three-judge panel of the 5th District Court of Appeals that granted the Observer summary judgment in a suit filed by Dallas restaurateur Dale Wamstad. Since the 5th District judges had sided with us, dismissing the suit without a trial, and the Supremes declined to take up the case, that means we won, barring further appeal by Wamstad.
The victory follows a Supreme Court ruling in the Observer's favor earlier this month in a separate case brought by Denton County officials concerning a parody we published that skewered their decision to jail a 13-year-old boy over a homework assignment. (A bit of bragging: Buzz had the honor of being named and quoted in that Supreme Court opinion. "Crude," "provocative" and "bad taste" were some of the words thrown our way. Mom'll be so proud.)

In the latest case, Wamstad sued over a March 16, 2000, story by staff writer Mark Stuertz headlined "Family Man." The story detailed Wamstad's history of disgruntled ex-business partners and turbulent former family life--turbulent as in his previous wife shot him in New Orleans.
The 5th Court judges had ruled that Wamstad, a flamboyant promoter of his restaurants, which at one time included Del Frisco's steak house, was a public figure. That meant Wamstad would have to prove that we published statements we knew were false or showed reckless disregard for whether they were true or not.
We didn't do either, of course. Stuertz carefully corroborated and sourced his story. He's a pro that way, unlike those hacks at The Dallas Morning News, which reported this week that Texas Supreme Court Justice Scott Brister failed to recuse himself from a case "in which one of the law firms involved was handling legal matters for his election campaign." Now, we've never talked with the honorable and extremely wise and studly Brister--don't know anything about him--but for some reason we just feel in our gut that story was wildly unfair. Call it a hunch. A completely unbiased hunch.

I just got AF today and will start my Superfact on January 12th! We will be transferring one day 6 blast, we have two frozen. One is 4AA the other 4AB quality. Our Dr. stated being they had to go to day 6 to make the blast stage they are considered "medium" quality even though the grading is great.
Anyone else have success with having to wait until blast made it to day 6 and then have a successful cycle?

Gramtag observed the man from the shadows; gauging how he would react. As he passed; Gramtag pounced; gripping him tight around the neck and dragging him back into the shadows. He opened his mouth; and bit down hard; his fangs piercing the man's flesh and finding the vein. He tore a chunk out of his prey's neck and began drinking the steadily flowing blood. He savoured each morsel; enjoying his feast.
Once the body was entirely drained; he tore the man's head off; ripping it straight off his shoulders. He enjoyed the violence. Leaving the dismembered body; he moved off down the alleyway; and he continued his earlier musings. Morktag; his brother had wandered these parts before he vanished.
Morktag had been obsessed with the myth of the Lost city of Atlantis for almost half a millennia; and 100 years prior, he had disappeared while searching for the city. Simply vanished; without a trace. Gramtag had scoured the Earth; searching for even a trace of Morktag; a whisper of his whereabouts. There was nothing to find; it was as if his brother had never existed.
Gramtag had spent the century travelling the various continents of the world; working as an assassin for hire as he continued his search for his younger brother. His employers varied; some high in the political hierarchies of the world; others just ordinary people. Some were revenge seekers; others just out of pure hatred. Gramtag didn't judge; money was money; killing was killing. His life as a vampire was; and always had been filled with it.
Gramtag could see the fear in his contact's eyes. He watched as the man shook; visibly cringing away. The vampire's presence always instilled fear in the hearts of others; they never seemed able to shake the terror.
The contact's hand extended out; an envelope held there. A shiver ran through the man as Gramtag's fingers brushed his hand; removing the envelope containing his payment from them.
"That's it; all ten thousand of it as agreed".
Gramtag weighed the envelope in his hands; then slipped it into an inside pocket of his jacket. He stared down at the contact; then showed his teeth with a smile; his fangs protruding over the edge of his lips. The man began to back away; but it was futile. Gramtag lunged and began his feast.

Grocery tax credit hike passes Senate
A move to send the grocery tax relief bill to the amending order failed 10-25, and then the Senate voted 27-8 in favor of the bill, sending it to the governor's desk. The move to amend was for fear of the out-years financial impact of the bill. "Next year's budget is going to be even more difficult without the passage of this," warned Senate Finance Chairman Dean Cameron, R-Rupert. Sen. Russ Fulcher, R-Meridian, the bill's Senate sponsor, said, "We know there are concerns about the financial impact of this bill. It's a big deal." Sen. Shawn Keough, R-Sandpoint, said, "It comes down to priorities. My question is, when are we going to put the families and the working people of Idaho as our first priority? Is this the best step? For me, no. It's a bite, it moves us forward."

When I took my egr out to clean it, I didn't use a new gasket. Never had a problem with it.
When I took my egr out to clean it, I didn't use a new gasket. Never had a problem with it.
how do you clean one from a 97 eldroado i got one bolt off but the other is under the fuel line which i cant get off
You have to lift the fuel rail.
Sorry, I can't tell by the last picture, where exactly do you spray the carb cleaner? everywhere but inside the allen ekey looking hole?
Is there anything called a "PVR" valve? Someone told me that was my problem but it was probably the EGR valve he was thinking of. Suggestions"
No such thing.
Nice write up!
I just followed the instructions and cleaned out the EGR-valve. Replaced air filter as well. The car runs perfect without the jerky rpm at low speed. But here's a problem: the cruise control as well as the left power window on the backdoor stopped working.
Does anyone know why? I know this is a pretty common problem but I really don't want my top condition Cadillac suffer from this
Great thread! I just cleaned my EGR and it did the trick. Biggest problem I had was that the last person to replace/clean the valve didn't put the brace for the fuel rail back on correctly, so it (the brace) was over the nut. I had to pry the fuel rail over with a screwdriver with one hand and remove the bolt with the other. That was sorta scary because I didn't want to kink up the fuel rail, but it was fine. I figured the guy who did the last job couldn't find the hole. I never have that problem.
Thank you for the pictures!
Great tips here.
But I wonder about the pintle. My Chilton repair book says the pintel should be cleaned. They have a picture on page 4-7 that shows the assembly of the EGR valve. It looks like the hole you are not spraying solvent in has a screw that allows to take the EGR valve apart.
Is it possible to get it back in correct function if I take it apart? I'm especially worried about the spring tension.
Electric cleaner should not dissolve the insulation, but clean out the dirt. Do you think that would lessen the risk of ruining the mechanism if it came into the hole beneath the valve?
I spray it in the opening under the "can" where you can see the pintle valve and use a dental pick to scrape the carbon loose. Tedious and time consuming, but with the right tool you can do a good job.
I tried to get the EGR out on my 95 STS and the steel fuel line is in the way and won't budge! What do I have to do to get the fuel rail out of the way. Looks like the factory upgrade was done.
You need to separate the rail from the supply line and then remove the hold downs. Then lift the rail and injectors out.

Tina Fey isn't the only former Saturday Night Live star to come out on top after the US election campaign. While Fey's uncanny parody of Sarah Palin was credited with helping scupper the Republican's credibility, another former SNL cast member, Al Franken, today looks poised to be declared the winner of the tightest Senate contest of the elections, narrowly taking Minnesota for the Democrats after a ballot recount.
Prior to his run for the Senate, Franken was best known as a political satirist, rising to prominence as a regular writer and occasional performer on SNL from the late 1970s to the mid-90s. His most famous performance was his impersonation of Mick Jagger – complete with lip curling and bum-wiggling dance moves – that made it on to the US music show Solid Gold. Another of his SNL creations was the character Stuart Smalley – a spoof on people who become addicted to therapy for addiction – who went on to star in his own movie.
More recently, Franken became a star of liberal radio – as a talkshow host on Air America Radio's flagship programme The Al Franken Show – and took on the rightwing media attack dogs in books such as Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations and his documentary God Spoke. In the 2006 film, Franken accuses George Bush of blowing the global outpouring of sympathy and goodwill the US received in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. He manages a sly personal dig at Bush by asking the president whether he's ever manufactured crystal meth.
His Senate campaign was warmly greeted by many in the media but inevitably attracted the ire of the likes of Ann Coulter and Bill O'Reilly. Franken blew a raspberry in the face of his critics by returning to SNL to perform a parody of John McCain's controversial campaign ads. The sketch featured the Republican candidate recording his approval for ads that accuse Barack Obama of supporting "tax cuts for paedophiles" and healthcare for Osama Bin Laden, and of "fathering two black babies". US Senate debates may never be the same again.

Statendam is a fairly well-built ship, and has reasonably decent interior fit and finish, though food and service could be improved. Comfortable and well-run, there's little 'glitz' anywhere on board.
Cruise line: Holland America Line
Sister ships: Prinsendam, Rotterdam, Zaandam, Zuiderdam
Best for: Mature cruisers, Families
Overall score
Douglas Ward has been on over 1,000 cruises, and is considered the world's leading expert on cruising. He is the author of the annual Berlitz Complete Guide to Cruising and Cruise Ships.
There is a full walk-around teakwood promenade deck outdoors – excellent for strolling, and, thankfully, there's no sign of synthetic turf. The sunloungers on the exterior promenade deck are wood, and come with comfortable cushioned pads, while those at the swimming pool on Lido Deck are of white plastic.
Most of the public rooms are concentrated on two decks, Promenade Deck, and Upper Promenade Deck, which creates a spacious feel to the ship's interiors. In general, a restrained approach to interior styling is taken, using a mixture of contemporary materials combined with traditional woods and ceramics. There is little glitz anywhere.
What is outstanding is the array of artworks throughout the ship, assembled and nicely displayed to represent the fine Dutch heritage of Holland America Line. Also noticeable are the fine flower arrangements throughout the public areas and foyers.
Atop the ship, with forward facing views that wrap around the sides is the Crow's Nest Lounge. By day it makes a fine observation lounge, with large ocean-view windows, while by night it turns into a nightclub with extremely variable lighting. The atrium foyer is three decks high, although its sculptured centrepiece (Fountain of the Sirens, a late 17th-century bronze piece by Willem de Groat) makes it look a little crowded, and leaves little room in front of the purser's office.
A hydraulic glass roof covers the reasonably sized swimming pool and whirlpools and central Lido area (whose focal point is a large dolphin sculpture) so that this can be used in either fine or poor weather.
The ship has a large, relaxing library. There's also a card room, an Explorer's Lounge (good for relaxing in, for afternoon tea, and after-dinner coffees), and a casino.
The "Mix" lifestyle area is a trendy, upbeat space combining three specialty theme bars: Champagne (serving champagne and sparkling wines), Martinis (in individual shakers), and Spirits & Ales (a sports bar – beer and baseball/ basketball for the boys). Microsoft Surface touch-screen technology is available for playing checkers and chess, air hockey, and other sports games.
The ship's best asset is its friendly and personable Filipino and Indonesian crew, although communication can be frustrating.
Wheelchair accessibility: Good
Gratuities: $10 per person per day is added to your onboard account. You can have this amount adjusted at the information desk to do so. Additionally, 15 per cent is added to bar and wine accounts.
Onboard currency: US dollars
There are 17 cabin price grades. Cabins range from small interior (no view) cabins to a large penthouse suite (with ocean views).
The interior (no view) and outside-view standard cabins have twin beds that can be converted to a queen-sized bed, and there is a separate living space with sofa and coffee table. The bathrooms are tiled, and compact but practical.
On Navigation Deck, 28 suites have accommodation for up to four persons. These are very spacious, tastefully decorated and well laid-out, and have a separate living room, bedroom with two lower beds (convertible to a king-size bed), a good size living area, dressing room, plenty of closet and drawer space, marble bathroom with whirlpool tub.
The largest accommodation of all is the penthouse suite, with a king-sized bed, TV set and video player, and vanity desk. There is an oversize whirlpool bath (it could seat four) and separate shower enclosure, and a separate washroom with toilet, bidet and washbasin. The dressing room has a large private balcony. The pantry has a large refrigerator, toaster unit, and full coffee/tea-making facilities and food preparation area.
The Rotterdam Dining Room spans two decks. There are tables for two, four, six or eight. The waiter stations are very noisy for anyone seated adjacent to them.
For more casual evening eating, the Lido Buffet is open for dinners on all except the last night of each cruise, in an open-seating arrangement. A set menu includes a choice of four entrées. It is also the place for casual breakfasts and lunches.
A poolside grill provides basic American hamburgers and hot dogs.
The 66-seat Pinnacle Grill has Pacific Northwest cuisine (Alaska salmon, halibut and other regional specialities, plus premium steaks). There's a cover charge, but it's worth it for that special celebration.
The Showlounge at Sea spans two decks, with banquette seating on both main and upper levels. It is basically a well-designed room, but the ceiling is low and the sightlines from the balcony level are quite poor.
The Ocean Spa is located one deck below the navigation bridge at the very forward part of the ship. It includes a gymnasium with all the latest muscle-pumping exercise machines, including an abundance of treadmills, an aerobics exercise area, large beauty salon with ocean-view windows to the port side, several treatment rooms, and men's and women's sauna, steam room and changing areas.
Statendam is very comfortable and well-run, even though the current service let down the rest of the cruise experience.

South Korea's government has announced controversial plans to control the history textbooks used in secondary schools.
Currently, secondary schools can choose from textbooks published by eight different publishing companies.
However, the government says that from 2017, all secondary schools must only use history textbooks issued by the state.
The move has sparked fierce criticism from academics and opposition parties.
The government has argued that current history textbooks are too left-leaning and encourage anti-American and pro-North Korea feelings, the BBC's Kevin Kim in Seoul reports.

BeschreibungLiechtenstein--an Alpine curiosity? A haven for financial criminals? Or a success story in modern Europe? This book examines the reality behind the cliches. Liechtenstein's history has been dramatic and precarious. Several times it was in danger of vanishing from the map, most recently in 1939 when local Nazis tried to seize power and swallow the Principality into the Third Reich. Liechtenstein has a tiny population, no natural resources and the image of a less-than-serious fairy-tale kingdom with dubious banking laws which have often proved the bane of international tax authorities. But since the 1940s Liechtenstein has actually transformed itself into one of the most advanced hi-technology countries in Europe. This fascinating book charts the story of one of the world's most unlikely countries, revealing a strategy which its rulers and elite have used through the centuries to ensure its survival.
PortraitDavid Beattie is the former British Ambassador to Switzerland and has held a variety of senior diplomatic office posts in Europe.

Speaking with NewsBusters at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, former Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer reacted strongly to the offensive joke made by ousted Yahoo News Washington bureau chief David Chalian that Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and his wife Ann.
"It baffles me that somebody like that could even be hired in the first place," Fleischer said.
"You don't hear that type of rhetoric coming from the other direction in newsrooms, do you? But you hear it regularly in the direction of anti-Republican."
Chalian's remark, which was first reported by NewsBusters, was originally intended as a joke to co-workers but was broadcast over the internet via a microphone which was active unbeknownst to him.

OUI Shave Santal Shave Oil
Directions: Apply 2-3 pumps to wet skin before shaving. You'll find that the oil protects the skin, leaving a smooth, perfectly moisturized finish. No need to wash it off.
Ingredients: Prunus Dulcis (Sweet Almond Oil), Ricinus Communis (Castor Oil), Rosa Canina (Rosehip Seed Oil), pure essential oils
It was either April or May of 2014. It was a beautiful day in New York. Warm and sunny with the feel of Spring in the air. Sandals and bare legs were ahead and I was not ready. Two words. Winter. Fuzz. My girlfriends and I booked the first opening for a pedicure, and I set out to shave my legs. Excited, I grabbed a brand new razor- pink, plastic, and fresh out of the clamshell package. I foamed up and shaved as I normally do, threw on a light jacket, and ran off to meet my girls.
At the salon, I chose a polish, a barely there Blush, took a seat on the plush bench, rolled up my jeans, and placed my legs on the basin. My friend looked over in horror. "WHAT happened to your leg?!" I looked down at the inside of my right calf, covered in razor burn. Large. Red. Angry. I shrugged and casually replied "Oh that?...that's normal". But the conversation stayed with me. Why was it normal? Why was I used to razor burn, ingrown hairs, and strawberry scented shaving foams with ingredients I couldn't pronounce? I asked around. Irritation, itchy skin, razor burn, ingrown hairs. The shave tales were many, and they were bad.
As women, most of us learned to shave by going to the drugstore and picking a razor marketed as "feminine". Pink or purple, it was likely introduced to us by ads of a woman twirling across a beach, with a piece of silk trailing behind her. Most of us found that shaving led to anything but silky, touchable skin. Worse yet, we'd come to expect that shaving was a bad experience, that irritation is normal and just a nuisance we live with. Oui think it's time for a new normal.
Oui Shave pairs beautifully crafted razors with rich shave oils, high quality blades, and luxurious, natural products created with women in mind. Our mission? A better shave through beautiful skincare. Inspired by the way women shaved over 60 years ago, Oui are for women, by women. Free of irritation, Oui Shave is for truly touchable skin. To top it off, your new razor lasts over ten years, and yes...you can use it everywhere you shave. I hope you'll thoroughly enjoy your experience with Oui Shave. As always, I'm here if you have questions.
Skin types: Normal to dry skin
Hair type: All hair types
This incredibly nourishing blend prepares you for a close shave, while repairing and hydrating skin. Vitamins A & C improve skin tone and texture, while powerful Omega fatty acids 3, 6, and 9 rejuvenate.
Sandalwood is obtained from the sandalwood tree (Santalum album). It is a rare essential oil known for its sweet, rich, woody scent. Oui chose Sandalwood for its use in healing dry skin. The fact that it smells incredibly sexy? Bonus!

hey libotards, I wonder if this has anything to do with the FBI not being able to stop these ISLAMIC TERRORISTS,
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaa anyone?
The Federal Bureau of Investigations failure to recognize political Islam as a driver of jihadist terrorism is partly to blame for the FBI not identifying one of the Boston Marathon bombers in 2011 as a security risk, according to U.S. officials and private counterterrorism analysts.
The fact is religion has been expunged from counterterrorism training, said Sebastian Gorka, a counterterrorism specialist with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.The FBI cant talk about Islam and they cant talk about jihad.

I made the call days ago that you republicans would go overboard with Obama Hate when the last terrorist was captured.... As usual.... I'm right.
No matter how you try to spin this, facts are facts... There is no way to stop line wolf extremist, foreign or domestic, but when it does happen, we'll do everything we can to get them.
Obama got it done.... No ifs, ands, or buts!
The Terrorist Killer is in top of it and we're safer because of it.

Well, leave it to talking head crazy joe to not waste a chance of spewing propaganda at a funeral for a Policeman murdered by terrorists. Knock off's? Wannabe's? Damn, makes you wonder what "could have been" if those two brothers were the real deal. They "could" have done some real damage if they had been legit...according to crazy joe.
And then there is Attorney General Eric Holder. You would think that Holder had some kind of communication going on with our Intelligence Agency, wouldn't you? Then again this is the Obama administration. Enough said! Holder announced that the terrorist in the hospital would not be tried as an enemy combatant. At that point a Judge and the terrorists new lawyer waltzed right past law enforcement and FBI agents at the hospital and the terrorist lawyer-ed up and stopped communicating with the FBI. A little heads up would have been nice especially since the FBI was under the impression that they could interrogate the terrorist for 48 hours by law.
Did any of you notice just how easy it was for the law to shut down Watertown and not allow people out of their homes and how easily people opened their doors to their homes and allowed their homes and properties to be searched without warrants? Did this skinny 19 year old wannabe (according to crazy joe) wounded terrorist allow law enforcement to supersede Constitutional rights of American citizens? And who found the wounded terrorist? A citizen...once he was "allowed" to walk outside of his home.
Another question...did our government just purchase 500,000 plastic vault coffins JUST IN CASE something happens? Are they stored in Atlanta? Did the government purchase these thru one company that purchased them thru another company so as to avoid and declare any participation in this purchase? Hmmmm!
Is Pelosi and her partners in crime working on legislation that would exempt their cheap labor (grunts hired by Congress) from Obamacare because their cheap labor won't be able to afford insurance at their cheap rate of pay? The gophers would have to quit their jobs and seek higher pay elsewhere so as to be able to afford Obamacare and its many penalties/taxes/fines? God forbid that Pelosi should have to get up and get her own cocktail or coffee. Eff the citizens AGAIN, right, Pelosi?
You democrat robot morons are idiots.

Previous Joke | Next Joke
Things Republicans Believe
Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness and you need our prayers for your recovery.
The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.
Government should relax regulation of Big Business and Big Money but crack down on individuals who use marijuana to relieve the pain of illness.
"Standing Tall for America" means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.
A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.
Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.
The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins unless you someday run for governor of California as a Republican.
If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.
A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then demand their cooperation and money.
HMOs and insurance companies have the interest of the public at heart.
Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.
Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.
Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.
Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's driving record is none of our business.
You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have a right to adopt.
What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.
Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

A citizen discovered the wounded terrorist. How did Obama capture him again? lmao The Obama administration, including crazy joe are doing their best to convince the public that the two terrorists were actually knock off wannabe's and can't even be considered as "real" terrorists. How many terrorist attacks does this make that have happened on Obama's watch as he brags that he has terrorists on the run heading for the hills? Ft. Hood? Little Rock? Benghazi?(our Embassy's are considered as US soil) Boston? Yeah buddy, we can all here the little pitter-patter of terrorist footsies heading for the hills because of their fear of Obama.
Doesn't being so stupid embarrass you at all? PRICELESS!!!

When Collins softball needed two runs to overcome a 5-4 deficit in the bottom of the seventh inning, third baseman Allyson Long was happy to oblige.
Long drove in two runners on a single to seal the walk-off and the second district win of the season for the Titans, 6-5.
"What I liked is that our girls did not give up," Collins coach Charlie LeCompte said after the win. "They kept poking away, poking away. We had several girls with big hits and we ran the bases well. I like my team, I'm pleased."
While Shelby County softball was set to play multiple games at the Capital City Showcase over the weekend, the Rockets only contest ended with a 7-4 win over North Bullitt.
SCHS (6-6-1) was powered at the plate by second baseman Loran Trent, who collected three hits and two RBIs in four plate appearances Friday.
Trent was also a part of a late rally that allowed the Rockets to power past the Eagles (3-12).
With both teams tied at two runs apiece, Collins baseball's Thursday contest against Christian Academy-Louisville turned on a late mistake by the Centurions.
Catcher Zane Baker crossed home plate on a wild pitch by CAL thrower Luke Price that proved to be the winning run for the Titans (14-10).
The game showed the base running prowess of Collins, as the Titans scored all three of its runs on wild pitches or stolen bases.
Shelby County baseball's Friday contest against DeSales ended in stark contrast from the high-scoring game the night before.
While the Rockets (10-10-1) piled up 20 runs against Doss on Thursday, the Friday showdown against the Colts (10-10) was much more of a pitcher's duel, with SCHS taking a 1-0 loss.
DeSales plated its one and only run in the bottom of the fifth, scoring on a double.
While the first and last innings may have been successful ones for Collins softball, very little went right between.
From the second until the sixth frames, Anderson scored nine of its 10 runs and halted a late Titans (15-6-1, 1-1 district) rally that came a bit too late in a 10-6 loss on Wednesday.
Defeating Anderson County (9-6, 2-0 district) is as much of a mindset as it is actual performance, according to Collins' head coach.
SCHS closed its district-opening series on Tuesday night with a 7-3 home win over the visiting Bearcats.
The offense was significantly more aggressive than it was the night before, racking up 13 hits and jumping on Anderson (8-6) early.
Shelby's biggest offensive inning came in the bottom of the third while up 1-0.
The Rockets (9-9-1) tallied up a double and five singles in the frame to jump up 5-0 and put the pressure on the Bearcats to score.
A pair of top-notch pitching performances in as many days allowed Collins baseball to pick up its first district wins of the 2017 season.
Cameron Mattingly's outing capped off the sweep with a 6-2 victory on Tuesday night over Spencer.
The junior pitcher took to the hill, going six full innings while allowing just four hits and an earned run while striking out five batters in his fourth win of the year.
Shelby County softball's Tuesday night matchup with Jeffersontown turned out to be more of an exercise in patience for both teams.
Both the Rockets (5-6-1) and Chargers were knotted at six after seven innings of play, where it would take another two full innings to decide a winner.
Shelby's hitting cooled off after a fifth inning RBI by shortstop Hannah Webb brought the game to the 6-6 deadlock.
Starting pitcher Paige Oldham did a bit of everything for Collins softball to help top rival Shelby County on Saturday afternoon.
Oldham led the team at the plate, with three hits and two RBIs, while tossing four-and-a-third innings, allowing the Titans to mount a comeback win over the Rockets.
Down 3-1 after just one inning, Collins (14-4-1) added three runs of its own in the third, along with one final run in the fourth to close out SCHS (5-5-1) by a score of 5-4 and take its 14th win of the year.
Saturday's matchup between Shelby County and Eastern came down to a bang-bang play in the final inning when Brandon Davis brought the game to an end.
Eastern (8-9) was in the midst of a two-run, two-out rally in the top of the seventh inning when the Eagles' base runner thought he should test Davis' arm. And Davis passed with flying colors, gunning down the runner attempting to go from first to third. The outfield assist gave the Rockets (8-8-1) the 5-3 win.

Does your veterinarian's bedside manner need an overhaul?
My bedside manner is usually pretty decent, I'm told (even if I do sometimes tend to write things down instead of taking the time to quiz my clients to make sure they absorbed all the information correctly). But it wasn't always. Because here's the truth of it: Even if the empathy part comes naturally, effective communication takes practice … lots of it.
No, those with excellent bedside manner aren't necessarily born that way. We can be trained in basic communication techniques that, given time and practice, might one day translate into (mad) good exam room skills.
Colorado State University's Argus Institute at the School of Veterinary Medicine has obviously bought into this fundamental tenet, too. Otherwise, it wouldn't have developed an innovative workshop to improve veterinary client-communication skills.
The program is called, Frank -- as in, "Frankly, Doctor, your bedside manner sucks!" Here's what dVM360.com had to say about it in a recent news piece:
Frank workshops, typically running over two days, begin with interactive warmups as a large group. Participants focus on eight key communication skills like asking open-ended questions and using reflective listening and empathy during conversations with clients. Small group exercises that follow identify reasons to use these skills in daily practice, such as to reduce client complaints, enhance teamwork, improve client satisfaction and enhance the morale of the work environment.
Sounds kinda psychobabble-y, I know. But can I say how welcome this development is for vet med? I mean, if I'd been offered a client communication rotation in vet school I might have breezed through my first five years of practice without sticking my foot in my mouth as often as I did … or without as much acrimony on the financial front.
The only problem with these workshops? The veterinarians who really need them will probably never attend.
Now fess up … does your veterinarian need a trip to Colorado?
