Show #10: Life, Cancer, and Hospice
Show #10: Life, Cancer, and Hospice
We come back from our Thanksgiving holiday to a show that hits close to home for so many people: cancer. In our first segment, we're joined in studio by authors Lynnsy Logue (Tongue Cancer and My Organic Cotton Socks) and Josephine Hicks (If There's Anything I Can Do…What You Can Do When Serious Illness Strikes). We dive into the subject of cancer from two perspectives. One from Lynnsy Logue, and another from our guest Josephine Hicks who lost a partner to pancreatic cancer. Krissa Palmer gives us another great segment of her Senior Moments before we transition to our second half of the show with Hospice & Palliative Care Charlotte Region guests Marilyn Morenz and Laura Fitzpatrick.

Show #9: Senior Resources and Accessibility
Show #9: Senior Resources & Accessibility (click play to listen)
In this Sunday's show we speak with Denise Bordeman and Julia Sain (both of Disability & Rights) about the resources available to seniors, as well as people of all ages, who may have disabilities or their family members. David talks about health insurance and how the lack of price-transparency can impact decisions individuals make in regards to their own healthcare in his weekly "dysfunctional discourse". We then speak with Brian Carney (of Silver Cross), Rick Griffiths (from AmRamp), and Carolyn Cook (of LiveSmart Design) about home modifications, how important home accessibility is to a senior-adults well-being, and what options may be available to them.

Personal Responsibility
Show #7 Personal Responsibility (click play to listen)
WOW! We can't believe we're already on our 7th show here at Radio 4 the Ages, and boy was this show fun! As has become a tradition here at Radio 4 the Ages, David gives us his weekly Dysfunctional Discourse on personal nutrition and over-medication. Joining us in the studio today along with the Radio 4 the Ages team was Dr. Michael Smith N.D. (of Carolinas Natural Health Center), Linda Miller (of Centralina Area Agency on Aging), Mel Miller ( of Ameriprise Financial Services), and Betty Reynolds (Life Coach & Certified Senior Adviser). We dug into several topics surrounding personal responsibility including nutrition, health & fitness, financial & estate planning, and personal networking. The subject of personal responsibility is far too broad and complex for us to have covered in just two hours, but hopefully this show has provided our listeners with inspiration and resources to take the first step!

McCollum calls Rick Scott a copycat, says he's dodging a statewide TV debate
Trailing even in his internal polls, Bill McCollum launched attack after attack against GOP rival Rick Scott Tuesday during an hourlong meeting with the St. Petersburg Times editorial board Tuesday morning.
Among the accusations: Scott is ducking a statewide TV debate, has stolen or copied McCollum's economic proposals, ripped a plan from a McCollum speech to tout an Internet-based immigration verification system called E-Verify, and has blanketed Florida with misleading and false TV ads.
Scott has been putting out policy papers in the past week or so, McCollum said, including a plan to create 700,000 jobs in seven years. "What's ironic about those policy papers is that he copies me a lot," he said.
On top of that, McCollum said Scott was at best "incompetent" while running the hospital chain Columbia/HCA (a company that eventually pleaded guilty to 14 corporate fraud felonies and paid $1.7 billion in fines) and possibly complicit in criminal acts.
"And here's a guy who wants to be the next governor of Florida," said McCollum, who is speaking later to the Suncoast Tiger Bay Club.
A McCollum internal poll leaked to Politico Tuesday shows Scott taking 37 percent of the vote to McCollum's 31 percent in a GOP primary, with a full 32 percent of voters still undecided.
McCollum said the numbers reflect Scott's TV onslaught and his campaign's decision to hold back some TV ads until closer to the Aug. 24 primary.

LONG BEACH - The second-ranked Long Beach State men's volleyball team ended the regular season with its fifth-straight victory as it defeated No. 10 Cal State Northridge, 25-14, 25-21, 25-23, Saturday evening at the Walter Pyramid.
The 49ers honored their three seniors, Alex Anshus, Trevor Crabb and Colten Echave, prior to the match, and all three played a role in the win.
Crabb finished with 11 kills and five blocks, while his brother, junior Taylor Crabb, totaled a team-high 13 kills (.458), six digs and three aces. Junior Ian Satterfield also had 10 kills and six digs, while Echave added four kills and no errors on five swings for a .800 clip, to go along with a match-best six blocks.
Junior Connor Olbright and Anshus directed the offense to .308 hitting. Olbright dished out 26 assists and Anshus chipped in seven assists and two digs after coming into the match late in the final set.
LBSU had six service aces to CSUN's one, and also owned a 12-to-4 edge in team blocks. Over the last three matches, the 49ers have outblocked their opponents, 41-11.
Long Beach State (22-7, 18-6 MPSF) took control early in set one, racing out to a 7-2 lead following back-to-back aces from Taylor Crabb. The 49ers then proceeded to go on a 12-4 run, capped by a Trevor Crabb kill, to open up an 11-point advantage at 20-9. LBSU cruised from there, staying out front by at least nine, before taking the set at 25-14.
The second set was much closer with eight tie scores and three lead changes, but Long Beach State was able to pull away late for the 25-21 victory. The 49ers went up 20-18 before Cal State Northridge evened it at 20-all. LBSU then outscored the Matadors, 5-1, down the stretch with a Trevor Crabb kill ending it at 25-21.
In the third frame, it appeared as if Long Beach State was on its way to another big win when it used a 7-1 sprint to take a 13-7 lead, but CSUN answered with a 6-3 spurt of its own to come back within three. The two teams then entered a sideout game until the 49ers took match point at 24-21. The Matadors were able to stay alive with the next two points, but after the home team called a timeout, Satterfield's kill down the line closed it out at 25-23.
Cal State Northridge (11-15, 9-15 MPSF) hit just .126 on the night and was led by Brandon Lebrock's 14 kills.
Long Beach State finishes the regular season tied for second with UC Irvine in the MPSF standings. It will be the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament due to the Anteaters holding the tiebreaker between the two teams. The 49ers will begin the postseason next weekend when they host sixth-seeded Stanford on Saturday, April 20. First serve is set for 7 p.m. at the Walter Pyramid.

Inside the United States How Bad is it?
It's pretty bad. All of a sudden, the recovery has almost officially become "fragile" in the US. The official version was stated in the Fed's press release following the FOMC meeting on June 22-23. "Financial conditions have become less supportive of economic growth on balance", they said. Indeed they have. A recent report from a department of the US Treasury shows just how bad they have become.
Until this month, the Treasury was predicting that US funded debt would climb to $US 19.6 TRILLION by the end of fiscal 2019. That has been "revised". On June 4, the Treasury released a report to Congress stating that the climb to $US 19.6 TRILLION would take place by 2015, four years earlier. They also predicted that this would be 102 percent of US GDP by that time. As of June 23, with fiscal 2010 nearing the end of its third quarter, the Treasury's "debt to the penny" stood at $US 13.042 TRILLION.
The report said that the debt would reach $US 13.6 TRILLION by the end of fiscal 2010 on September 30. If it does, it will have grown by $US 1.7 TRILLION in fiscal 2010. And there was more. The Treasury projects that "publicly traded debt", the debt held by entities outside the US government itself, will almost double from its present level of $US 7.48 TRILLION to $US 14 TRILLION by 2015.
Ten years ago, the US Treasury was talking about paying off ALL government debt by 2012. Five years ago, they were talking about returning to "balanced budgets" at or about that date and all talk of "reducing" debt had vanished. Look at what they are talking about now. As we said, it's pretty bad.
"Greece On The Pacific":
That is the new description of the US state of California, once touted as the eighth largest economy in the world. California - the headline state, the biggest state in terms of its internal economy - is facing the necessity of budget cuts which make the ones undertaken by the European Club Med nations look benign.
Like most US states, California has a fiscal year which ends on June 30. Like ALL US states, California is barred by law from running a budget deficit. The problem is that California is staring at a $19 Billion "deficit" in the year which ends at the end of June and a $US 37 Billion deficit over the year that ends in June 2011. Given a budget of about $US 125 Billion, that's a 2010-11 shortfall of almost 30 percent.
Almost all US states are in the same predicament, only the size differs. So far, their budget deficits have been papered over by Mr. Obama's stimulus plan of 2009, but that money has mostly already been spent. Having built their "budgets" on the real estate bubble, their revenues are diving as their costs, especially for "social services" skyrocket. Almost every report on the fiscal carnage going on in the US states has a variation on this theme: "The US government will inevitably have to come to the rescue". If you think the recent EU "sovereign debt" bailout was big (and it was), wait until you see THIS one!
"Austerity" In The US Congress!:
The US "Jobs Bill", a scaled down version of President Obama's 2009 $US 787 Billion "stimulus package", has hit the wall. The Democrats in Congress have been trying to pass it for months. The 2010 version is seen as "essential" as it includes an extension of weekly unemployment benefits for millions of Americans who have been out of work more than six months. On top of that, the 2010-2011 fiscal year budgets prepared by most of the 50 states built the federal money included in this bill into their calculations. On June 24, the bill did not receive the 60 votes necessary to prevent a Republican filibuster. With the latest failure to pass the bill, 1.2 million Americans are going to see their "jobless benefits" end by the end of the week and the states will NOT be getting the federal money they were counting on. For a US Congress to reject such a bill is unheard of. As we said, it's pretty bad.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 22.214.171.124
Forum Moderators: Robert Charlton & andy langton & goodroi
What SEO "facts" fall into what category? What kind of testing would you do to move a given idea up a notch or two on an SEO "trustability" scale of:
1. Google evaluates the content section of a page differently from the rest of the template. I say "True".
I've seen this effect several times in the power of a link in the body of an article compared to a link somewhere in a "related links" section. Links in the body content rock the house.
2. Google is using human editorial input to affect the SERP. I say that's "Probable".
I sure can't think of a test to make this one proven. The big fuss over eval.google.com is several years old, and Google has now filed a patent on how to integrate editorial input into the algorithm.
3. Using a dedicated IP address helps in ranking. I say that's "Opinion".
In fact, I have moved domains from shared IP to a dedicated IP and seen no obvious change. I think it depends on the company you keep when you share an IP. If you do your own hosting, this could be tested by starting a new domain on an IP address that already has a few banned sites -- assuming you have manged to get a few domin banned somewhere along the line.
4. Seeing any urls tagged as Supplemental Result means there is a problem. I say that's a "Myth".
In fact, g1smd has shared a lot of work in this area - and while seeing urls tagged as Supplemental MAY BE a problem, there are many reasons for Supplementals. In fact, a given url can appear as both Supplemental (with n older cache date) and as a regular result (with a more recent cache date.) This kind of thing is NOT a problem.
One true counter-example is enough, logically, to disprove any proposition. However, being sure you actually have a counter-example can be a challenge with something as complex as today's Google Search. It's a good idea to get a handle on formal logic if you want to untangle the mass of information available about Google. Here's a good resource on that: [nizkor.org...]
So what do others think? Any SEO myths you want to debunk? Tested "truths" you want to share? Testing ideas you want to propose?
How about common fallacies in logic when thinking about SEO?
[edited by: tedster at 5:29 pm (utc) on Oct. 31, 2006]
I am experimenting with outbound links this week.
Me too - This part of the discussion has definitely got me thinking as one of my sites (old site, changed content) does very well with just one (non reciprocal) out bound to 'authority' sites on each page, when compared to similar sites where I'm hoarding PR.
I can offer a site with very bad duplicate content problems (multiple URLs leading to same content) that was slowly being fixed, when they decided to completely re-organise the site. Several thousand pages were moved to completely new URLs. Just a few dozen pages stayed at the same URL. So far Google seems very slow at picking up the new URLs, but it has only been a month or two.
I think the discussion of "amount of 404s to trigger something" probably revolves around the question: "does this look like a completly new site, after a change of ownership"?
In fact, I guess that most bits of the algorithm, basically ask of something: "what type of spam is that trying hard not to look like?"
>> Anyone -- your competition, for instance -- can create an unlimited number of 404 links to your domain. <<
I would hope that Google ignores a URL that the very first time they spider it, it returns a 404. I would hope they check it again a few times, then forget they saw it.
However, URLs that return 200 and content for a while, and then later go 404 are a completely different matter.
Again, one important property of a URL would be whether only internal links contain that URL, only external links contain that URL, or a mixture. I would hope that URLs synthesised only from outside a site would not carry as much weight as those found internally.
does very well with just one (non reciprocal) out bound to 'authority' sites on each page
I link liberally to pages on other sites that offer more information and/or are a source for each of my articles. I also link to pages like museum pages that have a picture that illustrates something in the article.
You would think I would be leaking PR like crazy but these articles almost always rank on the first page in Google for the topic and often are number one.
I'm not sure if these outbound links are helping me but it is a possibility. I also think it has helped me in getting links from academic and government sites because I list all my resources for an article and link to them when possible.
Orpan pages. They can be found, for example, if someone with the Google Toolbar or running the Opera browser looks at the page as this sends the URL of the page to Google. Normally orphan pages don't stay in the index . This has caused some surprised where people have set up "private webs" which then get discovered and indexed by Google.
I'm not saying Google does penalize a domain but it would make some good sense to do so. Google doesn't have infinite resources to spider the web (it just seems that way). If they start getting a large number of 404s on a single domain the robot may just decide to give up assuming the site is very broken - at the very least I would expect much slower indexing in the future until the problem is fixed.
Making a connection just to get a 404 requires quite a lot of TCP/IP overhead, actually getting the data afterwards is almost a breeze.
It is like that duplicate pages experiment that someone did a while ago with duplicate content where the spider checked out a few pages in the directory then decided not to revisit because it had triggered some kind of duplicate threshold.
If search results are an indicator of what Google (along with other search engines) can index then search engines cannot recognise words that are run together so:-
bluewidgets.com looks like bluewidgets dot com
however Google does recognise '-' as a word separator (but not '_') just like a space so
blue-widgets.com looks like blue widgets dot com
Google presumably doesn't do anything with the tld although certain tlds may confer more trust in the site (.org, .edu)
However it is important not to confuse an effect with its cause. Why should a keyword in the URL have a +ve effect on SERPS? Is it that Google puts a lot of weight on the domain and weight on the rest of the URL? Or is it that most people are lazy when linking to websites and just use the URL as the anchor. The hyphenated version as the anchor give an IBL boost?
Almost certainly a combination of the two.
Okay and now some science:
taken from the Expression Engine forums:-
[quote]> Derek Jones - 23 August 2006 04:03 PM
> the "Favour dashes rather than underscores as some search engines don't recognise these as word seperators" is a myth.
Actually Derek it is a myth that it is a myth and I suggest you try it.
Google, as an example of one search engine, sees underscores as underscores. Try the search with spaces, dashes and underscores and you will see markedly different results. Then find an Expression Engine site that uses "_" as the separator for URLS. Use Googles allinurl: directive to just search on what part of the URL Google has indexed, that way you avoid confusion for obscure search terms where H1 or even body text has enough weight to figure in results for example:
allinurl:<space separated keywords> - returns nothing
allinurl:<underscore separated keywords> - returns an EE site
That is because Google matches underscores to underscores. Try the same thing with a site using dashes as seperators:
allinurl:<space separated keywords>
allinurl:<dash separated keywords>
both searches match the page: <edited>
In fact with Google, putting dashes in the search term is the same as putting the phrase in quotes. At least as far as the URL is concerned. That means that the exact phrase must occur somewhere in the search term. So:
would match
but would not match
This is actually not a bad thing from a SEO viewpoint as it makes our pages more specific to what is being searched for.
Obviously when you do a general search there are all sorts of things like stemming going which can change the results depending on dashes, spaces, word order etc. Other search engines operate differently. Last time I checked msn search treated underscores as word seperators. But then virtually no-one uses msn search so who cares?

[x] TRUE
Proove: About 3 times I posted to a blog and edited wikipedia pages (ontopic of course), that always have been below my site in the serps for certain double keywords, and included a link with the keywords.
Now they're on top of me %-)
"So if you have a url like word1_word2, Google will only return that page if the user searches for word1_word2 (which almost never happens). If you have a url like word1-word2, that page can be returned for the searches word1, word2, and even �gword1 word2��.".
Now that's science.
Not URLs. (?)
G recognises _ as word separator in URLs, but not in content...
At least that's my experience.
G recognises _ as word separator in URLs, but not in content
No, the Expression Engine comments above are specifically about the inurl: operator results. The reason behind Google's unexpected treatment of the underscore is that there are many technical keyword searches that perform better when the underscore character is treated as a true chracter rather than as a word separator. Think of the way Front Page uses the underbar to begin their dedicated extension folders. There are a multitude of such technical examples.
I recently have been forced to downgrade my own take on the file size factor. Years back, it seemed like there was definitely a sweet spot for file size, and that big html files were taking a negative hit. But now I see many counter-examples. This includes a recently re-developed site whose new html files are WAY too big for traditional SEO wisdom (120 kb and more, on average) and yet the urls immediately moved UP the SERP immediately after launch.
In fact, part of the code bloat comes from a big chunk of javascript. And so I think I must downgrade my thinking about the value of external javascript for SEO to Opinion-Myth -- even though this is still a best practice for the important reasons reasons of download speed and caching.
What I now feel (Opinion) is that file size was never really an algo factor, and Google has greatly improved at ignoring this irrelevant sigal and isolating the content for ranking purposes, even on very bloated pages. In other words, the file size phenomonon was only peripherally related to ranking, but I was making a "post hoc ergo propter hoc" error in my logic.
G recognises _ as word separator in URLs, but not in content
No, the Expression Engine comments above are specifically about the inurl: operator results.
Ah. You're right, i just checked O.o
I still don't get it.
When i do a search on a certain keyword combination ( city and district names )i get results from our site that highlight the keywords in the URL. Eventhough it's actually a folder, /cityname_-_districtname/. It does get recognized when doing but a simple search.
Now if i do what you said to do, the inurl: thing...
It's nowhere.
I could live with it not being visible for the inurl operator search, only normal searches, but this made me thinking for a moment...
What's the deal with this _ then?
[edited by: tedster at 5:07 pm (utc) on Nov. 1, 2006]
[Heh, Tedster got there while I was on the phone.]
BTW, the sites that sit on top of this serps are
1. old and
2. are .gov sites or .edu
I would think the trust factor for them is high.
Hmmmm. This sounds like multilevel marketing:
First one's in get all the benefits.
Everyone else has to purchase AdWords.
but it is one of the most pervasive Google myths.
If files are too long or too slow at downloading googlebot will not always download the whole of the file, I'm sure somewhere in Googlebot it has both a file and time limit otherwise the process could be tied up infinitely download one file.
In addition I haven't checked recently but there was a limit on how much of a page is indexed. Last time I looked it was around 500kb. Okay not many pages are that big but I suspect that this is actually a googlebot download limit.
> Ah, but the highlighting of URLs in the SERPs is simply a display process that highlights occurrences of whatever full or partial character strings you searched for. It is not related to ranking at all.
but it is one of the most pervasive Google myths.
I think i learned something new today.
Now all i want to know is whether the co-ops labeling websites will have any feedback to general ( ie. non refined ) queries.
Google still penalizes the target page of GoDaddy 302 redirects (and also possibly the target pages of other "blackhat" 302 redirects).
My opinion: Myth, based on prior Googlebug 302 fiasco, since supposedly fixed.
1) Several 302 redirects from my Godaddy vanity domains to my primary home page, and it is still indexed, and not supplemental.
2) No 302 redirects listed to my site as shown with allinurl or inurl commands, including the GoDaddy redirects I know are in place.
Any other indications I should be looking for in this case?
[edited by: RonnieG at 7:56 pm (utc) on Nov. 1, 2006]
In the opening post, I mentioned logical fallacies that can corrupt your SEO process, and here's a big one that might be in play on the Sitemaps issue. The fallacy is called post hoc ergo propter hoc, or translated from the Latin, "after this, therefore because of this".
Sorry I'm not adding more to the discussion other than to say thanks but I just finished re-reading this entire thread and I wanted to specifically thank tedster for starting this discussion and also for pointing out the logical fallacies.
This thread has helped me firm up some of my current thoughts on SEO and allowed me to eliminate some of my "I think it is this way but don't really know" thoughts on the matter.
The logical fallacies has helped me re-think my position on several current real life issues, even some as mundane as what was causing my newborn's apparent late night feeding discomfort.
This thread is the exact example of why anyone serious about SEO/SEM should be on this board soaking up the knowledge.
Thanks all (and specifically you tedster)
In addition I haven't checked recently but there was a limit on how much of a page is indexed. Last time I looked it was around 500kb. Okay not many pages are that big but I suspect that this is actually a googlebot download limit.
I have a 70MByte pdf-version of one of my supplier's catalogues on the web and googlebot - after some initial hickups - has been regularly crawling it the past six months or so. At least the webmaster central didn't report any errors.
However: It is not really indexed and has no pagerank. Maybe too many images in it, not enough text. Or maybe there is indeed a limit for the indexing process.
Black hat SEO sites promote the idea that one can boost one's ranking by placing one's link at various locations on the page. They sell links outside of the footer area for more. Upper left corner of the page, middle of the content are the best areas they claim.
What is your view?
I think it is myth.
[edited by: tedster at 7:10 pm (utc) on Nov. 6, 2006]
I have not seen any valid examples of it for several months although people keep writing me. In my experience it's always something else that is causing peoples sites to go AWOL in the SERPs these days.
And no I'm not available for consulting at all, in fact I'm not very available at all.

November 12, 2012 — Coral Gables — The University of Miami Phillip and Patricia Frost School of Music will present its holiday gala dinner, Winter Wonderful, at 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, December 2, 2012 at the JW Marriott Marquis Hotel, 255 Biscayne Boulevard Way, Miami, Florida. The festive candlelight dinner features holiday music performed by hundreds of talented student musicians from the Frost School of Music who are pursuing their dream of a life, and career, in music. The goal of Winter Wonderful is to raise $100,000 for music mentoring scholarships at Frost. Individual gala tickets begin at $250; gala tables of 10 begin at $2,500 and go up to $25,000.
"The Winter Wonderful Holiday Dinner is simply the perfect start to the holiday season. It brings good cheer to new and long-time friends of the University of Miami and honors the wonderful patrons of the arts in our community. Best of all, the gala proceeds go directly to support music scholarships at the Frost School of Music, including our new Frost Music-Reach mentoring program that uplifts at-risk teens in our community all year long and encourages them to succeed in school and in life," said Dean Shelton G. Berg Frost School of Music.
During the holiday dinner festivities, Dean Berg will present the 2012 Frost Legacy Award to Michael and Lynda Gordon, in honor of their inspiring support of the Frost School's MusicReach mentoring program and other institutions of excellence throughout our community. Dr. and Mrs. Gordon are longtime Miami residents who are actively involved in charitable work, for children, cancer, religious causes, animal rights and multiple areas within the University of Miami including the Frost School of Music.
Highlights of the Winter Wonderful evening will include a sparkling cocktail reception, a sumptuous three-course holiday dinner and joyous musical performances by youthful voices of the Frost Chorale, Symphonic Choir, Cantilena Women's Choir and Maelstrom Men's Choir and instrumentalists in the Frost Holiday Orchestra, featuring holiday carols from around the globe. The music director is Karen Kennedy, program director for Choral Studies at the Frost School of Music.
Dr. Michael Gordon is an avid music lover; and in the 1920s his mother sang and danced on Broadway for Florenz Ziegfeld. A cardiologist, he received his B.S., M.S. and M.D. degrees from the University of Illinois and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota. He carried out his residency at the Mayo Clinic while a Research Fellow of the NIH, and received his Cardiology training at Georgetown University. In 1966, Dr. Gordon joined the University of Miami School of Medicine where he is now the Director of the Michael S. Gordon Center for Research in Medical Education and Associate Dean.
He pioneered the application of technology to medical education and developed systems used for training at over 1800 medical centers and agencies worldwide, including "Harvey," the Cardiopulmonary Patient Simulator that can simulate essentially any cardiac disease at the touch of a button.
Lynda Sosso Gordon grew up in Pittsburgh and attended the University of Memphis. After a career in the cosmetics and fashion industry, she became an event planner and met Michael while working with the Winterfest Boat Parade. The Gordons describe the Frost School of Music and Dean Berg as "absolutely extraordinary" and feel privileged to support the MusicReach mentoring program.
About Frost MusicReach Mentorship Program
The Frost MusicReach Mentorship Program uses music as a motivating tool to encourage teens to graduate from high school and continue on to college. Recent research by the Rand Corporation and others suggests that MUSIC is more effective than sports or any other school activity in keeping kids enrolled in school.
The Frost MusicReach program collaborates with the Greater Miami Youth Symphony to provide safe and fun music instruction on the University of Miami's Coral Gables campus for motivated at-risk 7th graders from the Miami-Dade region, pairing them with freshman music majors from the Frost School of Music who mentor them for four years! The MusicReach program has recently expanded to provide free after school group music lessons at Aspira Charter Schools in North Miami, and also assists with music instruction at Mays Conservatory for the Art in Goulds.
Learning to play a musical instrument provides three key elements that are essential for successful learning: risk-taking/public performance; hands-on learning; consistent and ongoing mentoring from a caring adult.
Proceeds from Winter Wonderful! will help to scholarship dozens of NEW mentors—for four years each—inspiring and teaching 40 NEW teens toward their pursuit of excellence. The benefits are lifelong, and proven.

In summary: Wire data is L2-L7 data spanning the entire application delivery chain. Through real-time full-stream processing, unstructured data is reassembled into structured wire data and mined for insights to strengthen IT ops, security, and business.
Watch this video for a quick overview.
Wire data is the broadest and richest source of insight available to IT organizations, and the foundation for delivering control to IT. Because of this, leading industry analysts recommend prioritizing wire data when formulating a comprehensive IT Operations Analytics (ITOA) strategy.
5 Key Truths About Wire Data
At ExtraHop, we were doing wire data before it was cool (or even a thing). Wire data has always been the core of what we do. These days the term "wire data" is used loosely among some vendors and is causing confusion. Here are a few things you should know when you're researching wire data:
Wire data is not the same thing as network data.
Nor is wire data analytics the same as network performance monitoring. When most people think of information off the wire, they think of packet capture tools used by network engineers. Some vendors use the "network data" and "wire data" interchangeably, but they're not even remotely the same thing.
Wire data has unmatched depth and breadth.
It gives you visibility across not only the entire application stack, but across the entire delivery chain as well.
Wire data is the only way to auto-discover and classify everything on the network.
Wire data shows everything that's generating data on your network, in real time. There's no other realistic way to keep tabs on your hyperdynamic environment.
Wire data is agentless.
Agents alter the same environment they're trying to monitor, which means certain data sets are skewed in the process. Only the passive observation of wire data is accurate and doesn't affect your environment.
Wire data is created via stream processing and full stream reassembly.
Only ExtraHop does stream analytics for wire data, rather than relying on post-hoc analysis after writing packets to disk. This write-to-disk requirement means the analysis is limited by disk speed and space and the ability of a person to sift through gigabytes worth of network data. Our platform reassembles all packets into full transactions, flows, and sessions in real time. The platform extracts over 3,400 metrics (in addition to custom-defined metrics) for on-the-spot analysis useful to everyone from IT to various business units.
ExtraHop Delivers Wire Data for the Real-Time Enterprise
Wire data is our DNA. In 2008, we launched with a stream analytics platform that takes full advantage of multicore processing. This means that with every generation of x86 server chips, we've reaped performance gains that are unmatched by other vendors, especially vendors who write to disk and are retrofitting legacy solutions in an attempt at wire data.
Here's why that architecture is so important.
ExtraHop delivers wire data for the real-time enterprise. The ExtraHop platform offers you real-time insight into your IT and business in a way that's never been possible until now. With so many possibilities, you do with this visibility is really up to you. Read more about how the ExtraHop platform works.

my great,great,great,greatgrandmother Susan was born around 1860. At first the search seems never ending, but I was very lucky. She was always known as Tula by family and friends, so one day on my lunch hour I went to the library and looked up African women names and wow there it was Tula{Too-lah}. These people live in the Bauchi reigion of Nigeria. I was never so proud in my life, I cried right there in the library, I returned from lucnh and approached some of my African co-workers with what I found and they confrimed what I had found That Tula is a name given to female children in Nigeria. So that is why I call this a easy find. Her life details have been the most difficult to find out.Help if you can, my seach for my family history has not stopped, cause I now there is more to her story, since she had a son that broke the color barrier a was a sucessful businessman in PA. I'd like very much to find more about her.

Ratings for Dr. Matthew I. Whang
I have been Dr.Whangs patient since 2005, I am very happy with his services & staff. He takes his time to explain everything so that I understand. I do not have insurance but I am very pleased with his charges because I know that he knows what he's doing. There is no other urologists I would ever go to. I went back to Dr.Whang after about 3 years without an office visit & he still remembered everything about my issues. He's very friendly & compassionate. I highly recommend Dr.Whang, I had seen 3 different urologists before being introduced to Dr.Whang. All the other doctors did many test & couldn't tell me what the problem was. After about 2 test Dr.Whang found the problem & fixed it. I'm so happy I met him, before he fixed my problem I suffered for many years. I just wish I would have met him sooner, because I truly believe I wouldn't have suffered for so many years with the issue I had. He is just an amazing doctor!!!
I was originally happy with my visit, but everything changed after my procedure... My mother asked how I was and what happened, and he was very rude to her and told her "I'll discuss that with my patient, not you." I understand HIIPA laws, but he NEVER came to inform me what happened when I woke up in recovery. So he never discussed what happened in the surgery or what the results were. I called his office, and he said he would talk to me in 2 weeks at my follow up. I ended up going into bladder retention, and back in the hospital, and when I went to see him, he seemed upset that I had called his office so many times with difficulty after the procedure and made a comment that he might need to send me back to my original doctor. Jokingly or not, at this point I feel he was acting indifferent to the pain I was and still am experiencing. I'm not saying that he doesn't know his stuff, he just seemed very arrogant when I tried to tell him that I was not going to be a "typical case"
vERY HAPPY WITH DR WHANGS PROFESSIONAL OUT LOOK, HE EXPLAINS EVERYTHING AND GIVES A SENCE SECURITY TO THE PATIENT,i'M GOING IN FOR A PROCEDURE ON WED. AND FEEL RELAXED AND CONFIFENT WITH DOCTOR.i WILL RESPOND AGAIN AFTER MY PROCEDURE ON THE 6TH OF AUGUST
Excellent doctor. My son went to him and he was extremely helpful and explained everything in detail. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Not Worth the MoneyI used this for one summer hoping to fade the scars from years of acne and essentially nothing about my skin changed.

LOVE at First SightSo maybe it's just because I have a ton of redness, but I really, really like this product! The golden shimmer isn't noticeable on my skin (especially because foundation, moisturizer, and sunscreen follow this serum). My favorite part about it is putting it on and literally watching the redness melt away. That was something that I thought money could not buy! Upon having this serum applied, I ...read moreseriously wanted to yell, "Just take my money already!" It was that amazing for me. I've used it on other fair-skinned gals who have redness problems and they too noticed an immediate difference. I can't say if it has had long-term effects yet, as I just started using it, but I'll be damned if I don't love the instant gratification I get!!! — 4 years agoThePastyHarlot | 173 reviews
Meh...I don't like the golden shimmer it gives on skin, but I think it does give a longer lasting natural glow on your skin when used twice a day. It doesn't get rid of acne scars or dark spots, not even after twelve weeks of using it night and day, it just disguise them. Honestly I don't know what to feel about it, I don't know if I should keep on buying it or seek another similar product. I think I'll...read more just give up and go to a derm to take the dark spot an acne scars off my skin with laser.

Awesome productI splurged and bought this product when it was brand new and been using it ever since. I've found that it works great as a face "primer". I have combination/oily skin that is prone to breakouts. This product is the best serum I've ever used. Just use it everyday n be patient and you will see results. — 3 years, 10 months agopurrbaby75 | 32 reviews
just for the aesthetic effectThe product did nothing for my skin. The shimmer seems to give you a glowing complexion but besides this, there's no other reason to use it because there is really no benefit your skin. — 5 years, 2 months agoimelda_margarita | 17 reviews
Not thrilledI love hoe this product deflects light causing a glowing complexion, but it has no benefit of restoring or repairing that I can see. I can get a good primer for way less than what I spent on this (Benefit High Beam). I wont buy this again. — 5 years, 8 months agomissoconee | 64 reviews

One time fluke?A couple of months ago I received this product for free. I used it twice a day for about a month and did not notice any remarkable difference in lightning my acne scars or brightening my skin. I really like the smell of the product but the shimmers in the formula was a little off putting, especially since I don't wear foundation and my face looked too sparkly vs. the natural glow I was going for....read more So I stopped using it for awhile, I spotted it last night in the medicine cabinet and thought to put a little on before I hopped into bed. Woke up this morning with two tiny pimples on my chin and a huge painful zit near my bottom lip. horribly painful! so much in fact, that I had to write this review. For the price tag it just isn't worth it, there's better stuff on the market for much, much less. two stars because it smelled nice and I really do love estee lauder. — 5 years, 8 months agomonpetitchou | 11 reviews

Etsee LAuder Idealist IlluminatorThis serum rocks my socks off. it really has helped even out my skintone and is a great pre-primer. (for days when I have extra time and want to look really pulled together I use it together with the original Idealist pore refinisher which is one of the best products on the market). I am reaching the bottom of the bottle of the Illuminator and was so happy to score another new bottle at a cancer b...read moreenefit, this is not something that i ever want to run out of. I don't usually spend a lot on my make-up on a regular basis (I'm a special occasion splurger), but this is one product that I am going to have to keep in my cabinet at all times. I have some sun-spots and discoloration from picking at my skin and the Illuminator has definitely lightened and brightened all without any skin discomfort. It adds the most sheer, subtle shimmer to your skin, I just make sure to check that I've blended it well, sometimes I notice a golden smear on my nose when I rush. I've noticed that some serums have added to the fact that my pores tend to clog, but not with this product. I even have had more success with liquid foundations, products that i usually steer clear of. LAtely I've noticed that after prepping with this and the Lauder DayWear Tint Release with spf, Cover Girl NAtural Wear foundation has been making my skin look fantastic. I've been alternating between the CG liquid and my standby, Bare Minerals powder (a product that I'll forever be loyal to). The last item I'll mention is StriVectin skin scrub, it's another miracle product, and has done wonders for my nasty blackheads. I think I've struck upon my miracle regime and CAN"T WAIT to go to my 20th high school reunion to show off my skin! — 5 years, 9 months agomegan_dooley_fisher | 2 reviews

About the Book
This book started out as a project between my sister (Holly) and I. We wanted to put together a scrapbook of ALL of our favorite "Nana" recipes. The scrapbook then snowballed into creating a family recipe book, featuring Nana's recipes. Holly and I contacted friends and family members to contribute photos, their favorite recipes of Nana's, and their OWN recipes.
In the end, we created a 56 page cookbook. The recipes vary from Mexican meatloaf to Baklava! We hope that this book inspires you to put some of our family and friends' favorites on YOUR table.

I came out of the homosexual closet the same year a groundbreaking play came out of the Broadway one. The author's name may not have been immediately recognizable in heterosexual households, but even the most homosexually challenged people would know, as the media often labeled him, The Voice of Gay America. Latching onto the manuscript I identified with the dialogue and situations so well, I highlighted passages on most of the pages with a yellow marker. I committed lines at a time to memory. Soon, I had to carefully tape together the most well read sections until almost every page had been reassembled. And as a young, impressionable fagling, I watched with budding pride as the author accepted a major award with a landmark speech that to this day still impresses me with its courage. This was not only a gay man, but also a writer that could potentially (and seemingly) break down barriers with the sentences he formed. I knew immediately I had found something that I desperately needed: an incredible role model.
Years later I am working with one of the largest gay newspaper in the United States, and threw myself at the chance to do a phone interview with The Voice. I wanted to talk about this man's illustrious body of work, his triumphs of the printed word and on stage. I wanted his opinion on the current gay liberation movement versus the earlier original one from which his works developed. But most of all, politics and literature aside, I wanted to thank him for influencing my life.
There was so much to ask him I didn't know where to begin. I carefully did my research and my list ran the gamut from this man's emerging career to his modern achievements. After checking and rechecking my work, I was set. I was excited and when the day arrived, I was at my computer with my headphones at least 10 minutes earlier than needed. I was going to chat (via phone) with a man I highly respected, and who's written prose I read more often than any other living writer!
After the second time in ten minutes that I reached his hotel room's message service, I thought to double check the email. Yes. I had the most recently rescheduled date/time correct. There had been three changes in 48 hours and I moved my schedule to accommodate the latest and current one. I sent an email to the publicist, waited the instructed five more minutes and tried the call again. When The Voice picked up the phone with a mournful, "hello", I beamed with successful delight and started my stopwatch.
"Mr. Voice," I gushed trying to sound more enthusiast than psychopath. "Before we start, let me say this is a pleasure and an honor. You have been my inspiration not only as a gay man, but as a writer as well."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah," The Voice harrumphed through the phone connection. "Let's get on with the interview."
I chuckled thinking he was being funny. He wasn't.
The first question: "Who were your earliest influences?" never got answered. Instead, he went off on a tangent and I'm still not sure what his point was, but it didn't answer the question. Regardless, my fingers flew across the keyboard keeping up with his rapid, gravelly tones and capturing every word. Half way through asking my second inquiry, I was interrupted with, "That's the stupidest question I ever heard. Whoever thought of that is a moron!"
I was stunned. My eyes flew over my notes. Out of my twenty prepared questions, his publicist had dismissed three when a last minute stipulation was declared for preapproval of all interviews questions. I didn't mind, but this one had been given the green light, and for the life of me I couldn't figure out why the immediate defensiveness. I quickly moved onto the next but the tone was set and the interview spiraled all down hill from there. Before the conversation's end, two more of my questions were awarded The Stupidest Question Ever, a major religious group was insulted, and at one point The Voice declared with a heavy sigh, "Cookie, you have two minutes left."
I finished the interview, thanked him for his time and got off the phone. I hit the red button on my stopwatch and was shocked! The entire interview – and all that had transpired within – lasted only Twelve minutes and Twenty-Two seconds. Out of all the interviews I'd conducted over the years (before and since) this was my shortest by at least half the time.
That's when I heard it: the sound of my idol shattering on the ground into millions of little pieces.
I have no idea what may or may not have been going on with The Voice before our initial contact. The truth is I'll never know and by the time our conversation ended, it made very little difference as all damages had been done. The bottom line is he knew he was going to be talking to me, a gay reporter from a gay newspaper, and even if you aren't The Voice of Gay America, you should be prepared for any questions during an interview. I am truly grateful for the inspiration The Voice has given me up to this point. But from here on out – I think I can do better.
I've been offered many potential possibilities as to excuse his behavior, some plausible and others pure fancy. Maybe it was withdrawal, or he was suffering from a chemical peel. Maybe he just had enough of the responsibilities of being The Voice of Gay America; or maybe, just maybe he's most happy being an unhappy person and surrounding himself with the negative type of enablers. Or it's possible he was just having a really bad day. I know that after talking to him I certainly was. Soon I was spinning in the proverbial gerbil's wheel: going around and around and never moving from that one spot.
I've heard many horror stories since then about journalists disappointed by interviewing their role models or person(s) of influence. I've been told about lovers' quarrels being held simultaneously with the interview in progress. A coffee house attendant being utterly berated for making a Large instead of a Grande, and one very infamous situation where a very established writer had to be institutionalized after conducting his interview with another famous play-write. I only got called a moron – I think I got off easy.
Every artist – be it written word, painted canvas, carved stone or whatever – wants to be inspired and inspiring. Does that mean we have to put ourselves out there to be a role model as well? That's a lot of pressure to live up to especially if you have no knowledge of the people doing it, nor of the responsibilities they are projecting. It's hard to play the game if you don't know the rules.
But if our art doesn't inspire than what was the reason for its creation? For strict soulful, self-enjoyment? Don't kid yourself! No true artists' ego would ever allow that. If that were the case, we'd be in seclusion writing away in our diaries. We create to inspire and therefore we inadvertently take on the potential responsibilities of becoming a role model.
I find inspiration these days from many writers in the GLBT society. Some are starting out and some are well established. I'm fortunate enough to have a role model that is one of the most prolific names within that community. He's been extremely generous with advice and encouragement. His critiques are kind and considerate, and he's been as gracious with others as he has been with me. I count my great fortune to have transformed from fan to friend.
As my second gay spy thriller Balls & Chain is about to be released (November 2014) and as I work on my third novel, I can't help but wonder what kind of role model I would want to be – should the request ever arise. There are several traits I'd like to emulate from my current inspiration: 1: Be gracious to your fans – without them you're just writing words on paper. 2: Try to encourage budding writers – today's little entertaining, filler column is tomorrow's "Tales of the City", and 3: No matter how enthusiastic the fan, there's always a polite way to excuse yourself.
That's not to say I didn't learn some things from his predecessor. There are many traits The Voice has shown that I hope to emulate, but there are three that stand out the most: 1: Be nice to reporters – they have many readers and can hold grudges. 2: Try to remember that if you are going to accept the accolades for your work – that you'll need to smile at the critiques as well, and 3: Don't call people Cookie – it's just tacky.

New Eco-Friendly Products Are Striking the Modern Age Renaissance
With the growing pollution in the world, individuals have started to realize the importance of cleanliness and have started to do their bit for the environment through the use of the new eco-friendly products. This is no less than the modern age Renaissance since the world has to cut down the roots of the vast dependence on the chemical products and start off with an entirely new venture in the field of eco-friendliness. Carbon emission is the major issue in the world that is becoming fatal in some of the most polluted places of the world. This new venture is undertaken to ensure that you take the necessary steps for survival before it is too late.
Why did the necessity of new eco friendly products arise in the first place?
The increasing level of carbon emissions in the air and water has been affecting a vast sector of the society and it is thus essential to reduce these harmful emissions. The use of certain products cannot be stopped but efforts can be made to replace the possible requisites with an environment friendly alternative. This adoption was not so severe till the time the pollution effects started appearing as fatal ones.
Eco friendly products are the products that are not harmful to the environment. These products help to conserve resources like water, forests and energy and prevent contribution to water, air and land pollution. Handmade paper reduces pollution and saves trees because it uses non-wood raw materials. Thus the use of handmade paper should be promoted. You can save more trees by using the products of handmade paper.
The vast variety of new Eco friendly products to enhance the nature's décor
Production of handmade products provides employment to many people. Eco-friendly furniture is a good substitute to wooden furniture because it uses less wood and hence more trees can be saved. Eco shoes are made of waste products, textile, recycled plastic and recycled rubber and no leather is used. Leather is extracted from animals which means killing of thousand of wildlife reserves. Eco shoes can be reused and recycled. Thousands of chemicals are used in conventional paints and have long term effects on humans as well as the environment. These chemicals can cause many health problems such as irritation or burn in the eyes, skin or nose and can also cause nausea, headache or dizziness.
Eco paints are made from non toxic materials including natural pigments, lead free dryers, tree and bee waxes, tree resins, seed oils, citrus peel extracts. Handbags made of handmade paper are excellent substitute of plastic bags because plastic is not biodegradable and hence is a great threat to Earth. By using handmade paper notebooks you can save the earth from deforestation. Solar products are also in great demand these days because without producing sound and air pollution these solar products give a positive boost to save our environment. The most important feature of solar products is their capability of conserving energy. These are some of the new Eco friendly products that ensure minimum harm and maximum reliability and durability.

The surly cop looked out at me in sleep
insect-like. Guess, who was the insect.
I'd asked him in my robe
& hospital gown in the elevator politely
why someone saw so many police around,
and without speaking he looked.
A meathead, and of course he was armed, to creep
across my nervous system some time ago wrecked.
I saw the point of Loeb
at last, to give oneself over to crime wholly,
baffle, torment, roar laughter, or without sound
attend while he is cooked
until with trembling hands hoist I my true
& legal ax, to get at the brains. I never liked brains—
it's the texture & the thought—
but I will like them now, spooning at you,
my guardian, slowly, until at lenght the rains
lose heart and the sun flames out.

Cowboys cut guard Kosier
Updated 10:57 pm, Monday, March 19, 2012
In an expected move after they signed two guards last week in free agency, the Dallas Cowboys on Monday released Kyle Kosier.
The transaction will save them up to $1.5 million in salary cap space.
A 10-year veteran, Kosier has been a starter at guard since the Cowboys signed him as a free agent in 2006. He became expendable after Dallas signed Mackenzy Bernadeau and Nate Livings to contracts totaling roughly $30 million.
Kosier, 33, has been plagued by injuries in recent years, missing 13 games in 2008 with a foot injury and three in 2010 with a knee problem. He started all 16 games last season but was slowed by plantar fasciitis in his left foot and suffered a torn knee ligament in the regular-season finale.
Sports Channel
Garrard joins Dolphins: Quarterback David Garrard signed a one-year contract with Miami and said he was told he'll be given a shot at the starting job.
Browns kicker signs tender: Cleveland kicker Phil Dawson signed his one-year tender as the club's franchise player. Dawson, who will make $3.8 million next season, converted 24 of 29 field goals last season, making seven beyond 50 yards.
Titans mend with QBs: With Peyton Manning telling Tennessee he's going elsewhere, Titans owner Bud Adams began the healing process with his QBs in a statement commending Matt Hasselbeck and Jake Locker, saying they were in a "tough situation."
Patriots agree to deal with Stallworth: A person with knowledge of the negotiations says wide receiver Donte Stallworth agreed to a one-year contract to return to New England.
Jets agree with safety: Free-agent safety LaRon Landry agreed in principle on a one-year deal with the Jets.

I'm the guy who got extremely upset at that photo, mostly because I didn't think of it first.
Just for fun: INTP. Which means I sit around all day and think about how to solve problems that don't actually need solving.
Hunting down the next NGO that needs a volunteer manager a.k.a cat herder. In the meantime, working part-time for a board game company, where I spend four hours a day hoping my life doesn't end in an avalanche of playing cards and poker chips.
Also a writer, tabletop gamer, and a ravenous consumer of documentaries. Especially ones about ravens.
Also the fact that I know the difference between "complement" and "compliment".
Movies: Give me an existential film, and I will watch the hell out of it. The Truman Show, Stranger Than Fiction, and The Seventh Seal.
Music: Wax Tailor, C2C, Talvin Singh, Bonobo, Thievery Corporation
Food: In a dream world, I would subsist on these three pillars: falafels, tofu, and palak paneer.
To be fair, that's not different from any of the other six nights of the week.

Fresh off a skate trip through Oz and a surf trip to the Maldives, Shaun White stopped by the Tonight Show Wednesday night, promoting his new Shaun White Skateboarding game (hits shelves Oct. 24) and the final stop of the Dew Tour, to take place at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Oct. 14-17 in Las Vegas.
Anybody's who's seen Shaun on the late night circuit, post-Olympics, knows the man gets the grammar of late night and his schtick's as solid as his double corks. With no rush, no awkward silences -- just havin' a chat with my buddy, Jay. It's like he was born in the guest chair.
After introducing him as "the greatest snowboarder of all time," Leno asked why his copy of "Shaun White Skateboarding" actually contained no disc. White replied, deadpan: "Shifty stage hands back there..." This easy banter segued into some awkward vacation snapshots of Shaun involving electric guitars on boat decks and rockin' scuba gear while White joked about his redheaded inability to tan and Leno joined in by asking him if he uses concrete as sunblock.
Looking sharp in a mod, army-inspired tweedy blazer and a tie loose enough to get a fella court marshaled by a Japanese Olympic federation, Shaun came off a bit more humble than he has in past interviews. He burned himself about an injury he sustained walking away from the skatepark before the first Dew Tour stop, and explained to Leno that, after a long break from skateboarding, he doesn't like to go to the public skate parks for a little while. "The kids are so good," he said. "They'll heckle you."
There were also a few shots of Shaun's Project X-ish private skate ramp at the Paramount studios and some funny bits regarding playing his own video game and losing to buddies who are all up on the Internet cheats. Shaun, known to be a fierce competitor in almost everything he does, admited that losing to these buddies is, "the most frustrating thing ever... They're beating me as me."
White will compete in the Vegas Dew Tour next weekend. He currently sits in fifth place overall, trailing 72 points behind the leader, Pierre-Luc Gagnon, after wins in two stops this summer. He also plans on competing in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill today released the following statement in response to President Obama's announcement that he is seeking expedited approval for the southern leg of the Keystone XL pipeline:
"With speedy approval of Keystone's southern route, we're another step closer to more American jobs and stronger energy security. I'm fighting for construction of the entire Keystone pipeline, because this is as much a national security issue as it is an energy issue. Just as we've increased oil production here at home, the more energy sources we develop with our closest allies, the less oil we'll need to buy from Middle East dictators who don't like the United States."
McCaskill had praised the decision by TransCanada Corporation last month to construct the southern leg of its proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline, calling the move "good news for American jobs," and a good step toward reducing our reliance on oil imported from nations hostile to the U.S.
A recent editorial in the Missourian newspaper in Washington, Mo., applauded McCaskill's work to reduce the price of fuel for Missouri families, saying she "isn't afraid to butt heads with her party and with President Barack Obama in backing her beliefs and what's good for her constituents... Of special note is that Sen. McCaskill spent the month of January visiting Missouri towns to hear from energy producers and consumers on how to keep energy prices affordable. She listened and acted on what is best for Missourians and the country."
McCaskill is urging specific actions be taken to combat rising gas prices:
* McCaskill called for the Federal Trade Commission to quickly complete an investigation she requested
into whether gas prices are being kept artificially high by oil refineries.
* Citing provocative actions by the government of Iran that are driving up energy prices for American
consumers, McCaskill has urged President Obama to release oil from the United States Strategic
Petroleum Reserve.
* McCaskill supports construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, and also supports the planned Flanagan
South Pipeline in Missouri.
McCaskill also recently released a fact-sheet to distinguish fact from fiction in the debate over rising fuel prices
