Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's 2010 album, Beat the Devil's Tattoo, finds the band splitting the difference between the rootsy Americana of 2005's Howl and the return to fuzzed-out noise rock that was 2007's Baby 81. Having once again parted ways with original drummer Nick Jago, bassist Robert Levon Been and guitarist Peter Hayes seem to have found a renewed creative spark with replacement drummer Leah Shapiro. Shapiro comes to the fold with strong noise rock credentials, having been a member of the punk-psych N.Y.C.-based Dead Combo and touring with the Raveonettes. With an overall sound that seems inspired by a searing mix of old-timey blues mixed with a hypodermic blast of melodic noise, there is a driving, wild-eyed intensity to many of the tracks on Beat the Devil's Tattoo. From the opening death-ballad title track and the gospel-meets-Madchester "Conscience Killer," the ****** robot funk of "War Machine," and the blissed-out acoustic folk ballad "Sweet Feeling," BRMC are in top form. But if you're looking for gutting-jet-engine lift-off, the cosmically epic, sanguine rock anthem "Bad Blood," with its repeated chorus of "I can see it in your eyes and now it's gone" is, like the rest of Beat the Devil's Tattoo, likely to grab you by the throat and leave its mark for some time to come.

ARDMORE, OK- Bed bugs come out at night and are drawn to human blood. Scientist say, they their not easy to notice until they've done their damage.
Mattress salesman and comfort specialist David Montgomery says he's seen an increase of people wanting to buy new mattresses because of creepy crawlers, bed bugs.
"Especially in the last two years, we've seen a noticeable increase, it is a problem and it keeps growing" according to Montgomery.
Montgomery says signs of bed bugs speak for themselves.
"Most of them are itchy, spots on their body that their noticing, and that's a tell tell sign, it's always a tell-tell sign with bed bugs."
An Oklahoma man say's he's found the all natural solution to kill bed bugs and Oklahoma State University is backing him.
"It's been proven at Oklahoma State Entomology Department to be one hundred percent effective against bed bugs," said Tony Ingle founder of Greeway Formula Seven.
Tony Ingle said in order to truly treat bed bugs, you have a little spraying to do.
"You'll treat more than just the bed, you'll treat the base board, sofa's and everywhere you have an infestation" said Ingle.

ABOVE ALL ELSE - A Keystone XL pipeline documentary
How one man's struggle to protect his family from the Keystone XL pipeline transformed the fight against climate change in America
Above All Else is a feature documentary film that tells the remarkable story of a group of landowners and activists who tried to stop construction of the Keystone XL pipeline in East Texas. The film follows David Daniel, a quiet, affable carpenter, whose backyard became the epicenter of a tree sit that physically blocked the path of the controversial pipeline. This was the birthplace of the Tar Sands Blockade, an activist group that would go on to oppose the pipeline's construction all along its route. David's stance against Keystone brought together an unlikely coalition of allies, from Texan farmers to student environmentalists to fire-cracker great-grandmothers like Eleanor Fairchild.
Above All Else is the story of David and his allies, their struggles, and what happened when they stood in the way of the most powerful industry in the world. It is a film about how courage and integrity are fundamental ingredients in social change—in Texas, throughout the country, and throughout history. Our plans for this project are ambitious, and we need your help to make them a reality.

(WBFF-TV) This DUI checkpoint caught on camera in Tennessee has been seen by millions on YouTube. Many say that police went too far.
The controversial stop was recorded on July 4 by a member of the libertarian party of Tennessee to prove how police violate constitutional rights of residents.
Maryland Attorney Scott Athen represents those arrested for driving under the influence. He says the officers in the video went too far – but what this 21 year-old did would not be tolerated in Maryland.

What type of scientist goes from being a believer of evolution to someone who believes in Creationism?
I care about my uterus and the uteruses (uteri?) of others. I also care about our rights to have a family (or not) when we so choose. This country is fucked in a lot of different ways. Why add to it by making safe, legal abortion no longer safe and no longer legal?
This is bullshit!
If you want creationism, go to church. Stay out of our schools!

Hello fellow beer fans!! As my team and I begin on this blogging adventure, I'd like to give you a little bit of information on who I am.
I am a recent graduate of the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering. I am originally from Sacramento, California, so this move to the midwest and other destinations has been eye opening! As a student, I was always interested in learning how I could utilize my engineering skills in a business setting.
The GMT program combined three things crucial to me:
- Technical prowess
- Business savvy
- Passionate people
It certainly helps that we also sell a product we understand well and love to enjoy!
A few details about me as a person:
- I've studied abroad in Asia
- I once designed a strategy to cut water usage at overseas broadcasting stations
- Celebrities that I've met include James Franco, Lil Jon, Bill Clinton, and George W Busch
- I would love to attend cooking school someday, beer and food pairings are fascinating and tasty!

Waking up in the land of Ooo is always a surprize when you dont have a place to call home. Travling in the land of Ooo has been difficult since the Great Mushroom War... I can barely remember what it was like before then.I was 5.I was 5 when i first met Marshall lee.It was right after the Great Mushroom War happend and everything was destroyed. Haha! At that time I was such a loser...Big glasses, dirty brown frizzy hair that just did not want to stay down, also my fangs hadn't devloped like the others i knew. (i dont know how we became what we are but i faintly remeber the elders talking about it) *sigh* But now, 1000 years later I have been searching...for..him.This is how I ran into Marshall Lee the Vampire King. "ugh I need to find a more comfy place to sleep". Jinx muttered to herself as she got up from laying on a bunch of rocks in a cave.She rubbed her brown eyes, yawned and streched her fangs out."well I guess its night out now...time to get goin.."she muttered to keep her sanity to herself. Its been years since she had last seen his face. Dreaming of him at night hoping he would remeber her.
As soon as she stepped out of the cave a cool wind swept over her and through her long brown hair. She started north once again to return once from which she came.

(From usnews.com) -- For all the talk about how college is essential to landing a good job after graduation, higher education often fails to prepare students for the workforce in several key ways. Even with a degree from a competitive school and a high GPA, many students graduate without ever having been taught these 10 essentials for the workplace:
1. Effort doesn't matter; results do. It's great to try hard, but if you're not getting the job done well, it ultimately won't matter. In the workplace, you're judged by the quality of what you produce, not by how hard you worked to produce it.

(From Business Wire) -- At a time when many businesses are still doing more with less, The Vaya Group today released six tips for optimizing talent.
"Many business leaders start out with good intentions, but then get distracted by the urgent crisis of the day," said Paul Eccher, author and co-founder and principal of The Vaya Group. "However, when performed routinely, a few practical steps can keep talent fresh, current, and most importantly, productive for the organization."
1. Visibly Recognize Learning and Skill Development. In addition to rewarding employees who develop new skills or take on challenging work assignments, it's important to celebrate the learning that comes from trying, even when the team falls short of their target. A little praise can go a long way in inspiring employees to push themselves to keep learning and adding new skills that will benefit the organization.
2. Encourage Clear Learning Goals and Objectives. To foster increased productivity and employee satisfaction, ensure that everyone on the team, including you, has at least one clearly-defined learning goal. Then, make these goals public and give the team the time, support and encouragement needed to achieve these goals.

(From ACT) -- ACT recently launched an initiative designed to assist America's job seekers and employers. By earning a National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC), job seekers have a way to stand out from those competing for the same jobs, and employers have an objective measure of an applicant's workplace skills. The enhanced version introduced today as the National Career Readiness Certificate Plus (NCRC Plus) adds a valuable new dimension in terms of the work-related behaviors an individual is inclined to practice on the job.
"We are proud to mark the five-year anniversary of the National Career Readiness Certificate with this important enhancement," said Martin Scaglione, president of ACT's Workforce Development Division. "Employers have long requested this behavioral skills enhancement. In fact, many employers rate soft skills just as important as cognitive skills in identifying workers who will be successful and are more likely to stay on the job."
Jennifer McNelly, senior vice president at The Manufacturing Institute of the National Manufacturers Association (NAM), commented, "We have been encouraging ACT to add the Talent assessment for some time, and we welcome this enhancement to the NCRC. The added dimension of important soft skill scores is directly aligned to what manufacturers are demanding of their current and future workforces. The combination of core academic and workplace skills with personal skills such as teamwork and customer service orientation ensures that an individual is ready to enter and move ahead in careers in advanced manufacturing."

(From FINS) -- If you're trying to move up the ladder, you're probably doing it all wrong.
So claims consultant and workplace expert Alexandra Levit in her new book Blind Spots: The 10 Business Myths You Can't Afford to Believe on Your New Path to Success, which was released earlier this month. Levit offers up 10 things people tend to believe about their careers and how following them will only set you up for failure.
FINS caught up with Levit in a phone interview to talk about some of these career assumptions and why they're not true.
Myth: Being Good at Your Job Trumps Everything
Even if you're the best employee the company has ever had, if no one knows about your numbers, it doesn't matter.
"Your department won't be perceived as important, even if you're doing a good job, if the right people don't understand what you're contributing to the bottom line," Levit said.
You need visibility. To get that, you'll have to self-promote without being obnoxious or overly "braggy." Start with your boss, Levit said. Update him or her with weekly status reports that quantify your results. Check in as often as he or she wants.
You can also send a gracious email to your boss and your team as well as a few higher-ups, thanking everyone for their input. That way, you highlight what you did while appearing to appreciate the help of your colleagues and superiors.

What is your highest priority in your next position?

Executive Development courses designed to enhance specific business skills of executives across industries will be offered for the first time by Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business this fall. These sessions will provide an in-depth analysis of specific business topics and challenges relevant to today's managers and senior executives.
"As business globalizes and changes, executives who are able to adapt and grow their organizations will find success – this is why we design courses to help executives meet both today's and tomorrow's business challenges," said Paul Almeida, senior associate dean for executive education at Georgetown's McDonough School of Business. "From finance to strategy to leadership, our Executive Development courses offer participants context, guide them through new concepts, provide them with the necessary tools and techniques, and help them achieve the mindset and approach needed to tackle an increasingly complex business world."
These intensive, three-day courses are structured for individuals working executives to advance their careers, as well as their performance and impact for their organizations in a format that is compatible with their challenging schedules. Participants will hear classroom lectures, study and discuss relevant material and issues, discuss case studies, and focus on practical solutions.

(From ere.net) -- In Part 2 of this case study on Apple's talent management practices, I look at its approach to innovation, compensation, and benefits, careerpathing, and online recruitment (its career site). Some approaches discussed are unique to sub-factions within Apple, as would be expected in any organization of significant size. It's also quite rare for organizations that design, manufacture, and sell through direct retail to have consistent approaches across all units.
You should not be surprised to learn that the firm that made the term "think different" a brand uses talent management approaches that are well outside the norm. In addition to the lessons presented in Part 1, some approaches other firms can learn from Apple include:
Career paths reduce self-reliance and cross-pollination — in most organizations, HR helps to speed up employee career progression. The underlying premise is that retention rates will increase if career progression is made easy. The Apple approach is quite different; it wants employees to take full responsibility for their career movement. The concept of having employees "own their career" began years ago when Kevin Sullivan was the VP of HR. Apple doesn't fully support career path help because it doesn't want its employees to develop a "sense of entitlement" and think that they have a right to continuous promotion.

It is hard to imagine that my client — the confident, competent, smart, strong and impeccably dressed Debbie that I have known 15 years — felt invisible early on in her career.But that's just how she and other black women in corporate America have felt — and still do at times.It goes back to unflattering stereotypes and general perceptions that "make it easy to dismiss black women as unable to be power players," says Sophia A. Nelson in her book, "Black Woman Redefined."Add that less than 1.2 percent of black females are executives in corporate America, and such women not only feel invisible, but to a third of the American workforce they truly are invisible, Nelson says.For those who are present, it can be hard to be heard."I'd be in a meeting and give my opinion," Debbie says. "And it was totally discounted. My points weren't even acknowledged. One of my white counterparts could say verbatim what I said and the response was, 'Let's discuss that.' "That's when she began to question herself: "Was it my tone? Did I present it in a manner that couldn't be heard? I was second guessing everything. It made me bitter."It's understandable to point fingers and "get swallowed up in the long-standing workplace inequities" argument, says Nelson, who doesn't blame anyone for responding with anger or outrage.But, she writes, "We must take stock of our professional battle scars and transform them into a powerful force for change," developing "built-to-last and nimble game plans focused on establishing meaningful relationships, strategic alliances and rock-solid career platforms."One of the most important keys — and most lacking for black women executives and professionals, according to findings of a 2009 Executive Leadership Council study— is having "comfortable, trusted, and strategic relationships at the senior level with those who are most different from themselves, most notably white males."Read more.

(From SFGate.com) We spend a lot of time here talking about the skills needed to land a good salaried position, but finding a well-paying hourly (often called nonexempt) position takes skills as well. I do get asked if finding these jobs is just a matter of going door-to-door, filling out applications and waiting for a call from a potential employer, and that is a common conception. The fact is, your chances of finding the best-paying nonexempt positions, positions that may have growth potential, increase when you use some of the same job-search tools as those looking for salaried positions.
Door-to-door job searching means turning in applications and hoping to get a response. In the past, that often was how you found a job. Today, hourly and salaried job seekers need to have a grasp of what they can offer an employer.

BENTON HARBOR (WKZO) -- The organization known as Michigan Works in Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren Counties will now be known as Kinexus.
Director of the new Kinexus Todd Gustafson says they're making the name change to highlight the agency's services that revolve around connectring workers with employers. However, nothing else is changing.
Kinexus has offices in Benton Harbor, Paw Paw, and Dowagiac. Gustafson says they'll still be identifiable as being associated with Michigan Works.

I am trying to align text in a row of my parts list vertically, but I can't seem to find an option to accomplish this. Please see the row for item #5 in the attached jpeg. The default behavior seems to be top justification.
I have found the ability to change left/center/right horizontal alignment in the 'format column' dialogue, but nothing for the vertical alignment. I have also tryed changing the settings within the 'styles editor' by going to the parts list style I am using, then the text style that is specified for the data, and changing the justification for that text style to middle justification (see 2nd attachment), but it does not seem to effect the text within my parts list as I had desired.
Can anyone offer any other solutions that I may have overlooked? Thanks!
can't be done. Just leave it and stop being so picky

Matthew Birt says:
Valentino Rossi was fortunate to escape injury after the Italian's hopes of claiming a home podium in Mugello were ended by a disastrous first lap collision with Spaniard Alvaro Bautista.
The factory Yamaha rider was trying to gain lost ground after a sluggish start from seventh on the grid when he collided with Bautista's Gresini Honda RC213V at just the third...

Is that a Chicken Karma or a Biriani ? I prefer Chicken Biriani myself with a vegetable Madras, Onion Bhaji, poppadoms and mango chutney.
Oh sorry you weren,t talking curry ! Ok Rossi then (your adverse obsession). You say 'getting worse' 'a quick Rossi is not quick enough' Well although as you know I am a Rossi fan and make no apologies for that - you may indeed be right ! However, It doesn't change a thing - I know that you will never get over the fact that 9 times World Champion - 125's - 250's - 500's -990's - 800's and for good luck Suzuka 8 hour winner on a Superbike - but that's something you will have to live with till your dying day!
Now back to your Karma _ hope you enjoy your curry !!!!!! lol.

" I believe I could have fought for the podium today"
At least Rossi knows his limits these days. It's not 'fight for the win' is it. Perhaps these days it's not possible to "make a good race"

"As I said, get them in while you can........."
Get what in? I'll be as surprised as the next man if he wins a race, & if he gets a podium I'll credit him as well as I did in his 1st race this year which I have already stated was excellent.
"Rossi's on the podium soon."
Good... it's what he was employed to do... if he isn't then he's not done his job because he should be winning points for Yamaha but so far, at roughly 1/3rd of the way through the season, it's only JL & Cal that have.

I hate these wise guys who comment on everything about Rossi coming up with something like
Obviously you haven't been watching MotoGP for long because otherwise you would have known he's beaten Lorenzo, Stoner and Pedrosa. Biaggi was actually a very underrated rider and his performances in SBK show that. It's not lucky winning 10 races a season, otherwise you'd have to call all the great riders lucky, your stupid, disable your account.

Playing God
[[http://www.guardian.co.uk/|The Guardian]] reports that NASA scientists are [[http://www.guardian.co.uk/space/article/0,14493,1407176,00.html|proposing]] to release chemicals in Mar's atmosphere to heat up the climate, eventually to make it colonizable. Is humankind getting closer to playing God? Many many years ago I had read a story by Asimov (I don't remember the title, if anyone does, please do let me know!) that looked at mankind's progress from an entirely different perspective.
The story is about a period in our future where we are just about to discover hyper-spatial travel. Asimov compares humans to bacteria growing in a culture. We grow and infact encourage growth of bacteria in our petri dishes and watch them closely. But when the bacteria grows out of control and starts to break the confines of the petri dishes, then we usually destroy that culture.
Asimov speculates what if the human race is just like that bacteria culture to some higher, superior race, far far advanced than we are. Is it not possible that humanity would be crushed just as easily as the bacteria cultures in our petri dishes? I was quite intrigued by that story, and I still think about it often.
With all the talk about cloning, stem cell research and prolonged life, how far is the day when Man really starts playing God, and steps out of his petri dish?

Personally, I have never had a hard time justifying undead hunters. For one, suppose a person was an exception hunter in life. If this person were brought back and given his free will (like all forsaken), it wouldn't be that hard to assume that he would have an affinity for animals. Some creatures might find his smell a little... discouraging... but I think that if this hunter were to routinely feed a creature and protect it, the animal would probably become used to the smell. And if that doesn't work, the undead hunter in question could always let a wolf or bear gnaw on his shin-bones for a while.
dracoola4u2001 said...
Well my dog has a real passion for anything that smells bad... so I wouldn't see the "smell" as a show-stopper.
loop_not_defined said...
I'm pretty sure the majority of class-combos we're getting with Cataclysm were previously restricted due to gameplay decisions, not lore decisions. For instance, Blood Elf Warriors were available at one point during the BC Beta (I played as one at the first Blizzcon), but were removed sometime after - Blizzard explained that they had to both A) keep a reign on the number of available race/class combos and B) make interesting class choices available. If I remember right, I think the class decisions came down to cutting one of the following: Warrior, Hunter, Rogue. The right decision seems pretty obvious.
I find too many people see race/class combos as what is POSSIBLE, as if classes have some highly exclusive list of requirements an entire race must meet before being "allowed in the club". Think of existing race/class combos in the following way: you can play as whatever classes a specific race has a strong interest in. It's not that Gnome Priests are *impossible*, it's just that Gnomes don't (or rather, didn't) have a very strong interest in pursuing such a career.
Same goes with Human Hunters.....trying to tell me that a Human cannot pick up a bow and train a dog because they don't have the proper ID and registration is flat-out stupid. Undead Hunters are only a bit more of a stretch, but there's plenty of diseased/corrupted-but-not-undead animals for them to pick from. I think it's safe to assume that allowing them to train all animals is a necessary gameplay decision, which is the kind of decision Blizzard has to make all the time.
Brett Porter said...
Plus, there are plenty of blighted or "undead" animals running around the 1-20 Forsaken areas. I just tamed the undead bear you see in the picture at the top since I lost the fox prior to the recent pet reset.
Gotta say, he looks pretty awesome!

How to Practice Conscious Eating
There are a million reasons behind what and why eat. Conscious eating is where we stop ourselves and choose to take control of this aspect of our lives. The following tips can help with this:
1. Do your own grocery shopping and pack your own snacks and meals.
2. Don't eat while you are doing other things.
3. Be aware of the nutritional content of food. Decide to mainly eat for nourishment and health.
4. Only eat when you are hungry. (Learn to identify genuine hunger pangs.)
5. Learn to separate emotions and food. Don't eat because someone asks you to, or has prepared food for you (eg if you are at a social event), or because you want to get your money's worth (in a restaurant), or because you feel you should finish what's on the plate, or because you're bored, or for emotional reasons.
6. Chew your food very slowly and deliberately. Feel the texture and savour the taste.
7. Stop when you feel full, or have consumed enough calories for the meal. (Learn to identify feelings of satiation.)
8. Avoid addictive foods and super-size meals.

Hands down, my favorite brussel sprout recipe, and I eat a lot of brussel sprouts. Steaming them creates a perfectly cooked sprout and the mustard gives them an amazing flavor. Even my boyfriend who doesn't like mustard can't get enough of these.
Grainy Mustard Brussels Sprouts

dawnmarie01 Posted: 03/17/13
So quick, easy and tasty. I actually cooked mine with some small red potatoes. Made a great meal.
LisaEJ Posted: 01/27/13appleton, WI
So quick and easy....very flavorful with the suggested beef stroganoff. My husband and kids (who normally aren't big fans of brussel sprouts) thought these were good. The mustard added a nice kick and also masked the smell when the brussels were steaming!
gditch4546 Posted: 01/04/13
Served these sprouts as a side dish with Meyer Lemon Chicken recipe. Easy to make and tasted great.
seaside725 Posted: 04/18/13
Best brussel sprouts I ever made. I followed the recipe exactly as written. My entire family loved these.
JanaTalt Posted: 02/10/13
Love this quick and easy side. One of my favorites. It packs just enough flavor and pairs well with many of my favorite meats. I steam the sprouts for a little less time because I like them a bit crisper. Need to use less water if you cut down the time.
MrsDana Posted: 01/26/13
I thought these were delicious. I used a steamer for my Brussels spouts and thought the grainy mustard added a tangy and zippy twist. I love Brussels sprouts and usually don't have them "doctored" up--but will cook them like this again!

It's about that time we see big man Rob Gronkowski take the field and snatch down passes away from defenders.
Gronkowski, right next to Jimmy Graham is the most athletic tight ends this game has to offer. He's coming off a few major surgeries that has kept him out for a great deal of time and now he's prepared to hit the field as soon as possible.
But when it comes to today's practice for Gronk, he was limited as the team attempting to ease him into things. He's listed as questionable right now as this is more than likely expected by the Patriots as some sort of strategy.
Great thing is though, is he has been medically cleared to return and I expect that questionable tag to be wiped away come Sunday. This man will be active and will once again become a big part of this New England Patriots offense.
With Aaron Hernandez in the current situation he is and Wes Welker gone, he'll be Brady's number one target.
With Gronkowski returning, wide receiver Danny Amendola has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Amendola is currently week to week with a concussion but should have a chance to be cleared come Tuesday or Wednesday.
Also limited during practice was wide receiver Brandon Bolden. Right now he's listed as questionable as he deals with a knee issue.

Chris Tomasson's post on Basketball | Latest updates on Sulia
Phoenix and Chicago remain in the mix for free-agent shooting guard Michael Redd. Suns will have continued interest if Hornets, as expected, match Eric Gordon offer sheet. Bulls let go of swingman Ronnie Brewer and now will make decision by Sunday on whether to keep shooter Kyle Korver. Redd could end up as a cheaper alternative.

Some lawmakers have reintroduced the Marketplace Fairness Act, a bill that would allow states to grab sales tax from large e-tailers.
Internet tax supporters, with backing from Walmart, Macy's, and Best Buy, are hoping a Senate vote will give them enough political leverage to require Americans to pay sales tax when shopping online.
Internet tax bill introduced today would force Amazon.com, Overstock.com, Blue Nile, and other online retailers to collect sales taxes if they do more than $500,000 in "remote sales."
Two GOP politicians are going further than Democrats with proposal targeting Amazon.com and other online retailers, CNET has learned. Conservative tax groups are crying foul.
The halcyon days of tax-free Internet shopping may soon be over, if Congress approves a proposed federal law supported by Wal-Mart and other big-box stores.
Senators vote 75 to 24 to glue an endorsement of Internet sales taxes onto a Democratic budget bill, despite opponents predicting the idea is antibusiness and a "bureaucratic nightmare."
The U.S. Senate begins debate on a proposed law that would require Internet retailers to collect sales taxes around the country, despite objections from online sellers that the bill goes too far.
The retail giant favors collecting sales tax from online vendors, but only if the rules apply to virtually all businesses.
The U.S. Senate is set to vote Monday on a tax bill that would levy new fees on people who download digital products including movies, music, apps, and even WordPress themes.
Draft U.S. Senate bill targeting even very small eBay sellers, who might make only a few thousand dollars a year in profits, has the auction site crying foul.

ST. LOUIS -- Sen. Claire McCaskill gets points for creativity: There are signs her Machiavellian maneuver to handpick a far-right Republican congressman as her fall opponent just might work.
Whether the Democrat's intervention in the jumbled three-way GOP primary is enough to save her in November is another matter.
The Republican candidate whom McCaskill marketed to voters in a recent TV ad as "Missouri's true conservative," Rep. Todd Akin, was closing on multimillionaire John Brunner as voters prepare to head to the polls Tuesday.
(See also: Dem Senate hopes fade in Mo., Nev.)
But even if she does get her wish to run against Akin -- an ardent social conservative seen as the weakest in the GOP field -- McCaskill has bigger problems to overcome.
Elected six years ago in a banner cycle for Democrats, McCaskill is now widely seen as the most endangered Democratic senator in the country, running in a reddening state that has fallen out of battleground contention for President Barack Obama. Her support for the president's big-ticket agenda items like health care reform and the stimulus, coupled with her unforced error of failing to pay property taxes on her personal plane on time, has the charismatic first-termer playing catch-up against all her potential opponents.
With those daunting odds, McCaskill hurled a Hail Mary last month -- taking to the airwaves with a spot touting Akin as "the most conservative congressman in Missouri" in his race against businessman John Brunner and Sarah Palin-endorsed former state Treasurer Sarah Steelman.
(Also on POLITICO: Crossroads blitzing 5 Senate races)
After deploying a massive war chest to build a double-digit polling lead earlier this summer, the front-running Brunner is now clinging to a tenuous advantage as the contest careens to a close.
The final Public Policy Polling automated snapshot of the campaign showed Brunner's lead over Akin has dwindled to just 5 points, 35 percent to 30 percent.
Steelman, who was picking up steam in several internal tracking polls after Palin's endorsement, registered 25 percent.
Early on, Akin's chances were discounted by the political class. His campaign was beset by organizational snafus and turnover of consultants and staff who grew frustrated by the outsize influence of his wife, Akin's closest adviser and a ubiquitous presence on the trail. His 12-year record in Washington was seen as a burden among a GOP primary electorate itching for a fresh approach.
But Akin's strong ties to religious voters and activist conservatives gives him the most intense base of the three.
"It's still a close enough race that an upset, particularly by Todd Akin, remains possible," said PPP pollster Tom Jensen.
It's Akin's trajectory in what's expected to be a low-turnout affair that has McCaskill's troops holding out hope.
When asked why she would rather run against the six-term Republican congressman, McCaskill grinned and paused before deciding against candor.
"They're all the same," she said in an interview with POLITICO outside of a canvassing kickoff this weekend at a deli an hour west of St. Louis. "They are. They all want to get out of the U.N., they're all for privatizing Medicare, they're all for privatizing Social Security. They all want the federal government out of the student loan business."
McCaskill's strategy included two other spots tarring Brunner and Steelman, but the Akin ad rotated on local stations much more frequently and remained on the air here in the closing days. Though it concludes by calling Akin "too conservative," the crux of the ad is clearly designed to market Akin as the most attractive choice to the hard-right primary electorate.
And there's evidence it's working.
Scott Watson, a Springfield Republican, wrote a letter to the local newspaper citing the ad as what helped determine his vote.
"I think it's time for someone who may be too conservative," he wrote in the Springfield News-Leader last week. " Thank you, Sen. McCaskill for running that ad."
In the PPP survey, Akin is ahead of Brunner among voters who say they're "very excited" about casting ballots Tuesday.
And speaking to a gathering of Republicans at a barbecue in Springfield on Saturday night, Akin half-embraced McCaskill's barb. "I'm too conservative," he quipped.
Make no mistake: McCaskill heads into the fall an underdog regardless of which Republican emerges from Tuesday's primary. She's already taken more than $15 million of incoming fire from outside groups or candidates portraying her as too liberal for the Show-Me State. Add in the time already reserved for the fall and the opposition money rockets to $34 million, according to her campaign.
McCaskill eked out a victory over former Republican Sen. Jim Talent in 2006 -- a wave year for Democrats -- by just 46,000 votes. A former prosecutor and state auditor known for her sense of humor and straight talk, McCaskill used her folksy demeanor to connect with voters, even bringing her mom along for an RV tour of some of the most rural outreaches of the state.
This year, though, McCaskill is swimming against a much stronger tide. Her aircraft imbroglio and ties to Obama are prime attack ad fodder, and the state has trended swiftly to the right in the six years since she took office: In the historic Republican cycle of 2010, GOP Sen. Roy Blunt thrashed Democratic Secretary of State Robin Carnahan by 14 points.
In another sign of McCaskill's troubles, a widely read Missouri blog reported Monday that Democratic Gov. Jay Nixon's campaign made clear to McCaskill she "wasn't welcome at their Springfield party" on primary night -- a move to separate himself from the senator's liabilities that has some Democrats privately steaming.
Nonetheless, McCaskill and her brain trust believe the race is far from lost. An Akin victory, they say, would present the starkest ideological contrast for the swath of voters still up for grabs.
"Do you want somebody who wants to join Rand Paul and Jim DeMint and Michele Bachmann in the tea party in Washington? That's really what this is going to boil down to for those folks in the middle," McCaskill said. "I don't think the middle of Missouri wants the far right. I think the middle of Missouri wants a moderate."
McCaskill also argued that the barrage of ads against her so far haven't done much damage.
"Are [voters] really moved by grainy pictures of me, fat and ugly? I don't know. You'd think if it was gonna work, I should be in the 30s," she said. Instead, the senator said, her numbers are in the low- to mid-40s.
"I'm fine, especially since so far it's been a referendum. Just very recently have Missourians even begun to learn about these three candidates. Once they learn who they are, Missouri's going to have a really clear choice."
If Brunner or Steelman carves out a victory, McCaskill still plans to frame either as a vessel for the tea party who wants to privatize Medicare, Social Security and student loans.
But the line of attack is perceived to be less potent against Brunner, a newcomer to politics whose record on issues is paper thin.
In an interview on his campaign RV outside a fair in Washington, Mo., Brunner twice refused to embrace the label of tea party candidate, adhering to a more centrist tone on the eve of the primary.
"I've always been a person to bring different people together, bring minority positions together, find a way to bring consensus together and getting the job done. I welcome supporters across the state," he said.
That's why his tenure as CEO of Vi-Jon -- one of the nation's oldest health and beauty care manufacturers -- would become as central to McCaskill's narrative as Bain Capital is to Obama's counteroffensive against Mitt Romney.
Brunner has faced scrutiny over a merger he helped execute -- and the debt incurred as a result. He has also refused to say how much he walked away with after selling his stake.
"Either he is a terrible businessman and that's true," McCaskill said of the debt, "or he doesn't want to tell Missourians what the true figure is because he knows they had to lay off people after that."
She added: "His only reason for being a U.S. senator is Vi-Jon. So if he's the nominee, it'll be a campaign about Vi-Jon."
As she revved up a group of 25 canvassers on Saturday morning -- touting the 1 million phone calls already logged by her ground troops -- the senator also lamented the cascade of money she's up against.
Having spent $8 million in the primary alone, there's no telling how much Brunner would pour into a general election -- yet another reason McCaskill has her fingers crossed for Akin.
"I feel like he probably thinks he's bought everything he wants in life and the only thing he hasn't bought yet is a Senate seat," McCaskill said. "If he's willing to spend $8 million to get the nomination, that's a little frightening because he could spend $20, $30, $40 million. That's a little daunting."

I always forget to link up with my sweet friends, Neely and Ashley for Sunday Social. Ok, I typically don't forget.. I'm just too lazy to actually do anything on Sundays. And yes, that means too lazy to open my computer and type up a blog post. I'm pathetic.
This weeks' questions are super fun though, and I had more energy than usual, so here I am! ;)
What do you miss most about being a kid?
Definitely not having any worries or responsibilities. Not having to pay bills was pretty amazing.
Did you have a nickname growing up? What was it?
My dad has always called me Bam Bam and my mom either calls me Knickerbocker or Slick Nick. (my middle name is Nicole). My other family calls me Ambi.
What was your favorite thing to do at recess?
Kinda embarrassing - my friends and I used to play a game called "Beach Babes" and we'd lay on the ground in the sand, and the boys would stand at the top of the playground equipment and watch us "sunbathe" and whistle at us. Then we'd run off while they chased us. Yeaaaah. Weird. I also used to stand on top of those half tire things. Ya know, the tires that are half in the ground and you can crawl underneath them. I'd stand on top of those with my best friend and yell out cheers we'd learn at cheer camp.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
If you asked me this when I was 5, I'd have said a synchronized swimmer. When I turned 9, I decided I wanted to be a pediatrician. That was the dream until I was about 19 and realized that medical school was going to be very expensive and HARD.
What was your favorite toy?
I was all about my barbies and my cabbage patch dolls. I also loved my Light Bright. (is that what it's called?) and other typical kid toys.
What is the funniest thing you did as a kid that your parents still remind you about?
When I was 3, we went to the zoo. The flamingos were behind these bars, and I wanted to get a closer look, so I stuck my head threw the bars. Well, I got stuck. Neither of my parents could get my head out, and we had to wait for some people from the zoo to come and help us. Apparently I was like that for quite a while before they were able to get me out. It's a funny story now.
I hope y'all enjoy the rest of your weekend, and relax it up for Monday. It's hard to believe that tomorrow is October!

DETROIT, MI (WTVB) - Detroit Lions owner and Chairman William Clay Ford is dead at the age of 88 due to pneumonia. He had been the sole owner since buying the team in 1963 for $4.5-million with the franchise now valued at around $900 million. He was the last surviving grandson of Henry Ford. Under his ownership, the team built two stadiums, hosted the 2006 Super Bowl and constructed a 36-million-dollar training center in Allen Park. There will be a private service.
Control of the Lions will likely go to his son, William Clay Ford, Jr., who has served as vice chairman of the Lions since February 1995. In Ford's tenure as Lion's owner, the team had one victory in a playoff game back in 1991 and is one of the few clubs in the NFL that has yet to play in the Super Bowl.

Arizona Cardinals update:
Bill Parcells used to caution others not to put rookies in Canton. He never said anything about their shoes.
The cleats Peterson wore during his 99-yard punt return in overtime against the Rams on Nov. 6 will become a part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame's permanent collection. (Size 12, Nike).
That return was the second longest in NFL history and was the third of four Peterson has returned for touchdowns this season. That ties an NFL record.
Peterson also was named NFC special teams player of the week for his performance last Sunday against the Rams. It's the second time he's earned that award. He'll get his other shoulder patted for that one.
Two of Peterson's four punt returns for touchdowns came in two games against the Rams. The others were against the Panthers and Ravens. The Cardinals went 3-1 in those games, with each victory decided by a touchdown or less.

"self-deportation approach where illegal immigrants are allotted time to get their affairs in order and encouraged to leave the country."
What! We don't give murders and rapists time to get their affairs in order before they get punished! It's time to round up these law breakers and throw them out like the law breaking criminals they are. Enough is enough!
Murderers and Rapists? Really?
Whoo! Seriously? Buy a sense of perspective…
Gingrich is desperate and flailing at this point. He makes my skin crawl. The only response Gingrich knows how to give when he is criticized on his past (personal or political) is "That's a lie." Well, Politifact checked Romney's assertions from the last debate about Gingrich's ties to Freddie Mac and rated them TRUE. Newt is dancing on a pinhead trying to use semantics to cover for his sordid past. "It depends on your definition of the word LOBBYIST." Newt is a disaster and would guarantee an Obama landslide victory. Romney is a real leader with character, integrity, and accomplishment.
Step 1 of any immigration plan is to secure the border. The reason: without a secure border any sensible plan to deal with illegal people already here cannot work. All the GOP people agree on this. Mr. O wants a comprehensive plan where the border never gets secure. The GOP is so dumb that they get caught up in details of step 2.
At the end of the day – Newt has been part of Washington for the last 40 years. You cannot be an integral part of Washington and then conveniently distance yourself from it. He has been there all along….
what have they produced that has made the process better?
We need new blood in Washington. Mitt Romney will be a phenomenal president and will restore American greatness.
He is the consummate economist and a Mormon which means – he is all about "accountability".
He is looking to do right by us and restore Ame4rican values.
It is time to get past our fears and elect a good man to be President of our country!
Vote Mitt Romney / Marco Rubio 2012
@shat? Really. Like the two-year-old killed by an illegal driver in Aurora, CO after being caught-and-released 16 times for traffic violations and felonies.
Illegals need to return to their own countries and return within the confines of the law.
That was suppossed to be @what? sorry for the typo.
Mr. Romney, You are a moderate family man with good values and common sense. Do not cater to these right wing nuts.
Let's be honest- the GOP is going to need to go into PANDER OVERDRIVE to repair the self-inflicted damage over the past couple years:
AZ SB 1030 – "Papers please" law for suspicious Hispanics
Cain's "Electrified border fence"
The proposals to repeal the 14th Amendment birthright citizenship
Killing the Dream Act
etc. etc.
Might as well start pandering now.
