Sunday crash sends 4 to hospital
Four people were hospitalized Sunday after the vehicle they were driving in rolled several times in the median of I-96 Sunday afternoon. Two of the passengers were ejected from the vehicle.
The vehicle, a 2009 silver Jeep, was traveling westbound on I-96 near Clintonia Road around 4:20 p.m., when the vehicle drifted off the roadway and struck a sign, according to Michigan State Police. The vehicle then struck the cable guard, which caused it to roll multiple times.
A passenger told troopers he yelled at the driver when the vehicle started to drift toward the cable barrier. However, the driver was unable to bring the vehicle back onto the road.
The driver, Karin McCarthy, 56, and a 16-year-old male passenger, were flown to Sparrow Hospital for treatment. Two other passengers, a 15-year-old male and a 17-year-old female, were transported by ambulance to Sparrow Hospital for treatment.
The crash is still under investigation by troopers from the MSP Lakeview Post, Ionia detachment.
Assisting with the incident were Portland Fire, Rescue and Ambulance; the Portland Police Department, Aero Med, and Life Net.

Fresh off the recent news of a 3D-printed semi-automatic gun and a 3D-printed bong, Makerbot has announced a new prototype that could make scanning objects, digitizing them, and then 3D-printing them even easier.
"We are super excited to be able to announce at SXSW Interactive that we are developing the MakerBot Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner," said Bre Pettis, the company's CEO, in a statement on Friday. "It's a natural progression for us to create a product that makes 3D printing even easier. With the MakerBot Digitizer, now everyone will be able to scan a physical item, digitize it, and print it in 3D—with little or no design experience."
According to TechCrunch, the scanner "uses two lasers to map small, breadbox-sized objects and a webcam to create a digital model of any object." Presumably the scanner translates that information into a CAD file.
Frustratingly though, Makerbot has not disclosed any specifics on the Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner. Its price, availability, features, and specifications are nowhere to be found.
In an e-mail sent to people who signed up for more information on the Digitizer, MakerBot said the scans would be completed in "as little as three minutes."
Ars has reached out to Makerbot for comment and will update this story when we have more information.

An estimated half million users of compromised computer systems risk losing their Internet connection next month unless a federal judge extends a court order authorizing a California not-for-profit to operate a network of surrogate domain-name-system servers.
Paul Vixie, founder of the Internet Systems Consortium, has been operating the servers since early November, when federal authorities obtained court permission for him to replace a fleet of rogue DNS resolvers used in a massive fraud scheme that directed millions of end users to websites they never intended to visit. Without the replacement servers, millions of people hit by the DNSChanger botnet would have experienced internet failures when the rogue systems were unplugged.
At a conference in San Francisco on Wednesday, Vixie said about 500,000 end users are still relying on the replacement servers to translate domain names into IP addresses. He made clear that if the court order expires on March 8 as it is now scheduled to do, his ISC non-profit, which maintains the open-source BIND DNS software package, will cease operating the replacement servers. And that will leave many of those still compromised in the dark.
"In the absence of that court order, it would be very difficult for someone like us to go in there and say, 'Yeah, we will speak BGP and pirate that address space and run these name servers,'" he told an audience attending the 24th General Meeting of the Messaging Anti-Abuse Working Group. "We will not do that. There are laws saying you should not but it's also just kind of a bad precedent."
In a court document filed last week in US Court in the Southern District of New York, prosecutors asked that the order be extended by four months so authorities and network operators have additional time to notify customers who were infected by DNSChanger. The request comes after ISPs have told prosecutors that tens of thousands of their customers remain infected with DNSChanger, three months after the scam was exposed and seven of the principals behind it were indicted.
"Extending the operation of the Replacement DNS Servers will provide additional time for victims to remove the malware from their computers, thereby enabling them to reach websites without relying on the Replacement DNS Servers," the court motion states.
The predicament comes after federal prosecutors arrested six of the seven people alleged to be behind the DNSChanger scam. Using an Estonian business front dubbed Rove Digital, the team infected millions of windows PCs with a customized version of a highly virulent piece of malware known as Alureon, or alternatively as TDL or TDSS. The malware alters configuration settings in the operating system and unsecured wireless routers they connect to that cause people to use rogue DNS servers that were controlled by the perpetrators. As a result, those affected by the malware connected to Web servers they never intended to visit. The perpetrators earned millions of dollars in advertising revenue when the end users viewed ads on those sites, prosecutors said.
Under "Operation Ghost Click," authorities with the FBI and NASA's Office of Inspector General seized more than 100 US-based servers used to resolve popular domain names to incorrect IP addresses. To prevent millions of infected end users from losing the ability to access email and web pages, prosecutors arranged to have ISC simultaneously take over IP addresses and BGP, or border gateway protocol, addresses used by the rogue resolvers so the non-profit could set up replacement DNS servers.
Feds said at the height of the scam some 5 million machines were infected by the malware, although Vixie said that number may have been inflated because of the difficulty of mapping the number of IP addresses to PCs. He said he estimates 500,000 machines still rely on the replacement servers. Last week's court order put the figure at 430,000.
Vixie rejected audience proposals that, once the court order expires, ISC should redirect all people relying on the replacement servers to a "walled garden" page that informs them their systems are compromised. He also rejected a suggestion that the servers redirect users to such pages now, while the order is still in effect.
"That's not the business I'm in," he explained at the conference, which was attended by more than 400 representatives of ISPs, legitimate senders of bulk email, and vendors of software and hardware. "That's not the business the FBI is in, and I don't think that's what the judge thought he was authorizing. So at the moment, that looks to be completely off the table."
MAAWG Chairman Michael O'Reirdan told the audience member that ISPs are working hard to alert customers who remain infected so they can clean up their machines.
"If putting people in walled gardens doesn't work, we're going to do something else," he said. "If the most effective thing to do is send them individual carrier pidgins, maybe that's what we'll have to do in the future."

Modi should be dragged like a rabid dog and put in a cage for trial at ICJ The Hague.
Yes, Sally we put Modi in steel cage with bones to feed on and try him for genocide. These peeple from India are very very baade. Filthy.
We put many Nazis away in ICJ. Modi is next.
The recent communal violence in Muzaffarnagar, India has once again brought home the danger of playing politics with religious beliefs. In the past eight years, there have been nearly 11.000 thousand communal incidents across the country in India. While the casualties are countable ...... 130,965 dead and over 118,000 injured – the toll on India's economic and social fabric is beyond any metric.
But why do these Indians raipe so much?
I know it is big business in India.
I eat geese. I am Gooseman...a B AST ARD
All the previous in blue are all
But why do these Indians raipe so much?
That is the question
Modi was caught raiping a pig in Gaya
I live in Boston. I am a B AST ARD
Ahhhhh..... That figures. The Boston bomber was a hindoo from India.
Modi should be dragged to The Hague and put in a cage to face trial for genocide in India. He is a nazi.
Why do hindus from India raipe soooo much? Explain.
The worst five states in India in terms of communal violence incidents per million population are Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat and Kerala, in that order, over a period spanning from 2005 to the first quarter of 2013. Madhya Pradesh, with 3965 incidents between 2005 and 2013 (March), has the worst record of nearly 144 incidents for every million population. The countrywide average is about 129 incidents per million population.
I live in Morocco. I am 100% B AST ARD.
I am Tamarind. I eat tangerines. I am also a
Modi should be put on a leash and scooted over to ICJ to face a criminal trial for killing thousands of people in Gujarat. A genocide of immense proportions by hindus.
It is important to remind ourselves, that despite decades of suffering and suppression by India, the people of Jammu and Kashmir have not given up their hope or struggle. The draconian laws put in place by the hindu Indian government have not been able to extinguish the flame of self-determination in the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
@ Casablanca,
Loved your film.
Casablanca or the White House is a good thing. But I am a B AST ARD
Yes Casablanca. You fit the profile so you truly are a dirty........
@ Casablanca. Not only are you a little B AST ARD, but you are a demented psychopath that trolls these threads you B AST ARD!
And where you can come up with all these names with such astounding imagination is beyond me. You B AST ARD!
@Joey. That's because B AST ARDS have a vivid imagination.
So true banasy. So true.
Like they day. "Once a B AST ARD. Always a B AST ARD. " by Mark Twain
Actually that is sooo applicable to your prime minister Modi.
In some villages in India, the young girls are routinely threatened, abused and killed all under Khap (tribe/clan) verdicts. It is acceptable for the families to feed pesticide pills to the teenage girls and then dispose off their bodies by burning them without any police records.
Throwing acid, poisoning children, raiping five month old girls and handicapped women, massacring minorities maybe the norm in India but not for me.... Never will be. Fork the terrorist pig called India. Rope the hindus.
I am Al Harper. I am in an orchestra. I play the harp. I am a B AST ARD
I am Twilight. I watch the twilight. I am a B AST ARD!
Why do people hindus from India raipe so much? Hmmmm
Modi should be shackled and dragged to ICJ Hague and put in a trial cage. Frikkin raipist hindu from India

A. Philip Randolph, Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders worked together to make the March on Washington a success 50 years ago. However, there were a number of people, including several women, who worked behind the scenes to put together the event.
Courtland Cox
Cox was a Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) representative who was on the march's planning committee. His unknown contribution? He edited fellow SNCC member John Lewis' original March on Washington speech, which heavily criticized the Kennedy administration and called for a forceful but nonviolent march through the South. Several march organizers — including Bayard Rustin — deemed some passages in the text offensive, so Cox helped tone it down at the behest of march leaders.
Tom Kahn
Kahn, who was Rustin's chief assistant, created the concept for the march. He worked tirelessly for labor rights and became director of the AFL-CIO international-affairs department in the 1980s.
Norman Hill
The Congress of Racial Equality national program director served as the staff coordinator for the event, managing a large number of volunteers, interns and organizers. He went on to have an extensive career in civil rights.
Cleveland Robinson
Workers' rights were central to the march's mission. Robinson was the leader of the Retail, Wholesale and Department Stores Union's District 65 in New York City. His union alone provided three trains and 18 buses to transport attendees.
Anna Arnold Hedgeman
Hedgeman was the only woman on the march's administrative central committee. In fact, the ceremony's Tribute to Negro Women Fighters for Freedom grew out of Hedgeman's frustration with the lack of women on the program. She's credited with recruiting more than 40,000 marchers.
Joyce Ladner
Young people played chief roles in organizing the march, and Ladner was one of them. She was a field secretary for the SNCC, and after the murder of civil rights activist Medgar Evers, Ladner moved to New York to help recruit march attendees. She and her sister, Dorie Ladner, pounded the pavement to raise money to get people to the nation's capital.
Rachelle Horowitz
Horowitz also was a Rustin assistant. She coordinated transportation for more than 100,000 marchers nationwide and advocated for local coordinators who were having trouble getting unsupportive bus companies to drive to Washington. Thanks to Horowitz, New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority ran a rush-hour schedule the night before the march.
Eleanor Holmes Norton
We know her now as the District of Columbia's nonvoting delegate to Congress, but in 1963, Norton was a march volunteer in Harlem. She corralled support in New York City, recruited marchers and helped Horowitz coordinate buses to transport thousands to the nation's capital
Josephine Baker
The entertainer gave a moving speech at the march and was the only woman to officially address the audience as part of the march agenda.

Since Charlotte is not all that far from Atlanta, I figured it would be an easy jump across the state and then I could just relax for a couple of hours before the next event.
That was the plan.
But I failed to take into account the possibility that the airline would lose my pop up banner. In case you were wondering, the pop up banner is the big sign I took to all my events that has the names and logos of all my sponsors. It weighs 20 pounds and is 6 feet by 4 feet when opened. How someone can lose something the size of two golf bags is beyond me, but they did. So instead of chilling in Atlanta, I ended up freaking in the Atlanta airport for a couple of hours.
The good news is, they found the banner. And we still had time to go find another Mellow Mushroom and get more pizza for lunch!
The Atlanta event was a blast. Our host, Melissa from Blo Beauty Bar put out a fabulous spread including strawberries and truffles, chips and salsa, and asparagus rolled in sopressata salami. Her team gave everyone with hair longer than mine gorgeous blowouts. And the guests all got a chance to sample some Cool Mom Margaritas made from Sinless Cocktail mix.
My good friend Danica and her team from the social media marketing agency, Everywhere brought wine and helped me welcome all of their Atlanta friends. Our sponsors Theraderm, Living Fresh, and Office Candy were also on hand with gift baskets and products samples for all the guests.
In spite of a couple of bumps in the road, we had a great time! I'm now halfway through the "Lost in Suburbia Cool Mom Book and Blow Dry Bar Tour!" Next stop: Los Angeles!!
But before that happens, I have a couple of other cool things going on!
*If you happen to live in the New York tri-state area, Tune into Good Day New York on Fox 5 Monday morning at 9:20am where I will be chatting with Rosanna Scotto!!
*Looking ahead, I will also be on Fox 5 Morning News in the Washington DC area on Tuesday, May 14th at 9:15am. Please check that out if you live in MD, DC or VA.

LANDOVER, Md. – Against any other team, Eagles rookie quarterback Nick Foles would have a pretty good reason to be nervous.
Today he has the good fortune of making his first NFL start against the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field (1 p.m., Fox 29, WIP 94.1-FM).
The Redskins are like Hamburger Helper. Mix their defense with a rookie quarterback making his starting debut, and you can't tell he's a rookie.
The last eight such rookies have beaten the Redskins. The list includes Trent Edwards, who with Michael Vick out indefinitely due to a concussion, backs Foles up this weekend.
Edwards sparked the Buffalo Bills to a win over the Redskins in his first NFL start in 2007 – without guiding his team to a touchdown – at FedEx Field.
'I wish I had a better story for you and I was more energetic about it, but I don't really find it to mean anything other than we won,' said Edwards, who threw for 257 yards in the 17-16 victory. 'I mean, our team won. I don't really look at it as I won.'
Any quarterback looking at what these Redskins are doing statistically would want to take a shot at the defense. The Redskins give up 302 passing yards per game, which would break the NFL record.
Except for Ryan Kerrigan, who has 4 1-2 sacks, the Redskins have no pass rush. Celebrated edge rusher Brian Orakpo is on injured reserve.
Sure, the Eagles' offensive line isn't going to be immortalized in Canton. If Danny Watkins doesn't return, newly acquired Jake Scott likely gets a shot to be the team's third right guard in 10 games.
Still, add it all up and if that isn't reason to throw the rock, what is?
'I know, he knows and the rest of the football team knows that there are certain things he can do very, very well,' Eagles offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said of Foles. 'We'll play to what we think and what he thinks his strengths are.'
Unlike Robert Griffin III, his Redskins rookie counterpart, Foles' size 16 feet don't lend them to getting him out of trouble. Foles is a pure passer. At 6-6, 243-pounds, he also can take a licking.
Griffin, on the other hand, looks more and more like a once-in-a-lifetime quarterback. Beyond the deadly burst, the young man with world class speed throws a very accurate, very catchable football.
For a guy with just nine pro starts, Griffin works the pocket incredibly skillfully. Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan and his son Kyle, the offensive coordinator, helped the transition with a spread type of offense that uses misdirection plays. So much misdirection it reminds Eagles defenders of their college days.
'RGIII is a guy you've got to keep contained,' said defensive end Trent Cole, who likens the rookie to Vick. 'Their quarterback, he can run the ball and pass the ball. He's more a running back-type to me. You've just got to keep a guy like that contained. I think this game every man has to do their assignment. It's a man-up type of game. You've got to pretty much beat the man across from you and do your job because you're going against a team that has the option. They do a lot of different things.
'If everybody does their job, we can leave Washington with the game. Pretty much we can win the game.'
Right now pretty much isn't enough for the Eagles (3-6), who have lost five straight games and clearly are playing for 2013, considering the decision to play Foles, not Edwards at quarterback.
The Eagles must stop the Redskins running game with Griffin and rookie running back Alfred Morris, who ranks among the league leaders. The Skins average 165 rushing yards.
A failure to do so will enable RGIII to shred the Eagles' defense and prevent Foles from finding any kind of a groove.
'We're confident in him,' Eagles cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said. 'The main thing is just trying to keep the ball in his hand. Let him get that feel. Let him get that rhythm in. Get in sync with the offense and go from there.'
It's football, not quantum physics. While Eagles head coach Andy Reid told his players to go out, have fun and just enjoy the game Foles was way ahead of him.
'It really just comes down to going out and playing,' Foles said. 'It's football. You just have to trust yourself, trust the throws.'

Bullz-Eye Does Dallas: The Red River Rivalry
They say everything's bigger in Texas.
Nothing beats a good old fashioned college football rivalry, and few top Oklahoma vs. Texas. As one of the game's oldest grudge matches, the Red River Rivalry is steeped in history and bad blood. Every fall, downtown Dallas is overrun with maroon and burnt orange as fans from Norman and Austin descend upon the Cotton Bowl to renew acquaintances in the midst of the annual State Fair of Texas.
This year marked the 105th meeting between the two teams, and Bullz-Eye was fortunate enough to attend the latest edition of the Red River Rivalry, courtesy of the good people from Ram trucks. If you've never experienced a true college football rivalry in person, this one should land near the top of your to-do list. The game has taken place at the Cotton Bowl every year since 1932, which would seem to swing home field advantage to the Longhorns when, in fact, Dallas actually serves as middle ground between the two campuses. Sooner fans were just as prevalent on the fairgrounds throughout the weekend as Longhorn fans were, with shouts of "Boomer...SOONERS!" ringing out amidst thousands of "hook 'em horns" gestures in the hours leading up to game time. Each school's band treated fans to several performances just prior to kickoff, which got everyone worked into a proper pregame lather before we headed for the gate to find our seats.
As always, allegiances were very clearly split at the 50-yard line inside the Cotton Bowl, with a sea of orange dominating one half of the stadium and Sooner red overtaking the other. Oklahoma controlled the game early while holding a 21-7 lead at halftime, and though an otherwise flat Texas team managed to tighten things up late in the fourth quarter, it wasn't enough to overcome the eighth-ranked Sooners, who rolled to a 28-20 win but still trail UT in the all-time series, 41-59 with five ties. Check out a collection of photos from the pregame festivities below, and come back later this week to read our recap from the entire weekend, including a rundown of all the fair had to offer and a closer look at the latest addition to the Ram family, the impressive Laramie Longhorn.

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day – Movie Review
I wonder if the director, Bharat Nalluri being of Indian origin has something to do with the fact that he manages to portray the prudery of the main character so well?
No spoilers:-That is what the movie is about, a middle-aged out of work governess (Guinevere Pettigrew played brilliantly by Frances McDormand), a prim and proper vicar's daughter. She is clear about what is moral and what isn't. She is righteous and high-minded, pedantic and stuffy…not at all surprising for a middle aged lady in England of 1939. Not that we in India of 2008 are unfamiliar with her sort – middle-aged men and women eager to lecture you at a drop of a hat if they see you up to something "immoral" be it drinking or smoking or flirting or keeping an unkempt house. People who are scandalized and outraged if they see couples kissing or women revealing skin.
Such people would definitely find it difficult to get along with normal people, and it's not surprising that our Miss Pettigrew doesn't get along too well either. But alas, luck doesn't favour her…because the stern and unsmiling woman is catapulted into a situation where she has to question each and every principle she has held dear all her life. And that is where the comic element comes in…but no, this doesn't mean that the director decides to teach poor Guinevere a lesson. As the story progresses we see the warm and generous spirit behind Guinevere's apparent meanness…and well, as we soon realise, good things do happen to good people.
Amy Adams does a good job as Delysia Lafosse, the young girl who has stars in her eyes and a lie on her lips. There are three important male characters in the movie, Tom Payne who plays Phil, Lee Pace who plays Michael and Ciaren Hinds who plays Joe. Their roles are subordinate to that of the two women, but the story does revolve around the men.
Overall, a cute flick just right to catch on a rainy day, preferably on DVD. It's been adapted from a book. I saw it in a theatre, but then I always like to see films in theaters. The movie is short and sweet – only one and a half hours long. And it's got good reviews on rotten tomatoes. In India it's been a late release, several months after its limited release in America in March. However, it was released in the U.K just earlier this month and is yet to release in countries like Norway and Spain.

I wonder if the director, Bharat Nalluri being of Indian origin has something to do with the fact that he manages to portray the prudery of the main character so well?
Not necessarily. Mira Nair is of Indian origin and she directed "Kama Sutra: A Tale of Love" which was anything but prudish. Her other movies are also what would be considered as "daring" in India. 🙂
Amit, that was said lightly or rather, sardonically. 🙂 – Nita.

Sounds very interesting! I loved adaptations of old books. Will bug the local library folks to get this one now… 🙂
I saw Mumbai Meri Jaan today Nita and liked it very much. I'd love to read your take on it!
Devaki, thanks for reminding me that the movie is adapted from a book. I have now added this information in my post. – Nita.

It's here today and gone tomorrow. Spring finally showed up and I put out my welcome sign. In the next moment, we went back to winter then summer and finally spring again. What we had of spring was lovely Everything is confused except the bees. I'm listening to them.
Dressing in layers is the only way to go these days. We get a cold rainy day then a scorcher. One day I have lots of energy to put into the yard The next day I'm spinning my wheels and sitting trying to decide if I can do anything of use. I've been here in my cozy home for four years at the end of this month and made so many changes.
Spring is the month I can get the most work done outside and even inside. Once I could open all the windows, I took a day to clean my oven. Four years ago, it took 4 hours to clean that nasty mess the previous owner left for me. Now it's taking me a whole day to clean a rarely used oven. Looks like some of my spring, sprang.
Weeding on the hill and the front yard took lots of rest periods that would never have happened four years ago. But the end result was worth it.
I have been gifted with pieces of many plants from friends around here. I take those gifts seriously and nurture them to the best of my ability. Of course, I gift in return. A neighbor came looking for Thyme to cook his dinner.He said what I gave would have cost him $5 for a small bundle, he wound up with triple for a thank you. I've offered my Oregano as well to anyone that wants fresh. I've passed on ground cover and anything that I'm growing that can be split. It's how the world should work. I get a lot of my plants from a fellow blogger and photographer, Sabine.
There are lots of projects on the list. This week I had the distinct urge to take care of my window trim as it was the last cool, cloudy day on the sunny side of the house. If the butterfly bush blooms, it will be covered in bees which are not conducive to standing on the ladder with black paint. I'm embarrassed to say it's taken two years to get to this. I'll do the one on the front porch tomorrow. Then I must sand the stairs and railing on the front porch and re-stain. Today I can't move. Old feet on ladders takes its toll. I'll wait for the next surge of energy. They don't come so often anymore.
So I've hung up the Welcome Summer sign since my spring is sprung anyway. How about you? Are you ready to welcome the next season or is there still a spring in your step?
From my heart to yours,
Marlene Herself

Meggs/Meigs family name research in NC/SC/GA/TN/AL/MS/LA/TX/ARk/OK
I thought I'd mention to Meggs/Meigs family researchers there are FREE genealogy records available on the website www.alabamapioneers.com.
Many settlers traveled to Alabama during the early "1800's" due to the opening of the Alabama territory. They often married in Alabama, had lots of children and traveled farther west around 1837 and the Civil War. You can also find the website by searching for the word alabamapioneers.com on Google
When you reach the site, Just type the name in the search box and remember to use various phonetic spellings since there were few schools and census workers often spelled phonetically. To lower the number of searches, type the name again,in the search box below and be sure to check the box exact phrase only

Herbert and Catherine Schaible were on probation after a son died four years ago after not receiving treatment, and even though they were ordered to provide medical care to their children, another child died. "How many kids have to die before it becomes extreme indifference to human life?" First Assistant District Attorney Ed McCann said.

Hangovers are a part of serious imbibing, as we were unpleasantly reminded the morning after our punch party last week. With New Years Eve nearly upon us, we wanted to offer a brief round up of strategies to help you cope the morning after:
Preventative Measures
As Pink Gin says, "You need to plan on the possibility that you'll skip the night-before remedy. If you remember it, do you really need it?" Make these suggestions your mantra during the day while sober and you just may remember to follow them later in the evening:
Slow Your Roll Early: Have some nice, low alcohol sips in mind when you belly up to the bar. Cocktails made with low-alcohol liqueurs, like a Campari & soda, vermouth-based Half Sinner, Half Saint, or a San Francisco can keep you from getting too drunk too fast.
Water, water, water: Just do it. A glass between drinks is a good metric.
Eat. A Lot.: Eat a healthy portion of your dinner, even if you're feeling full from all the water you're drinking. You body will thank you. And, depending on how late you stay up, a second dinner might be appropriate.
Herbal Remedies as a Preemptive Strike: Take milk thistle before you start drinking (for your liver), B12 & B6 (for your hangover). One LUPEC pal swears by activated carbon pills: 2 with the first drink, one per each additional drink. All can be purchased at Whole Foods.
Morning-After Measures
Upon waking, you will likely need to ease into your day with a hearty breakfast, coconut water, ginger ale or beer, and a healthy dose of Advil. As Charles H. Baker writes of the "sort of human withering on the vine" that is the hangover in The Gentleman's Companion, (repubbed as Jigger, Beaker, and Glass), the "Picker-Upper" is the only possible cure for when you feel "precisely like Death warmed up": "We have…come to distrust all revivers smacking of drugdom. It is a small, tightly vicious cycle to get into, and a bit of well-aged spirits with this or that, seems much safer and more pleasant than corroding our innards with chemicals of violent proclivities, and possible habit-forming ways."
After all, there are just two proven ways to never get a hangover: never start drinking or never stop. Once you're ready for a little hair of the dog, any of these recipes should do:
Andy McNees' Hangover Eraser Nos 1 & 2: For the original, build the following over ice in a pint glass: A shot of Fernet, two dashes of every kind of bitters on the bar, top with Soda water. Drink as quickly as you can through two straws like a Mind Eraser. See below for recipe No. 2.
Bloody Marys: There's a good amount of vitamins in that there tomato juice.
Fizzes: During the pre-Prohibition heyday of the cocktail, the fizz held forth as the hangover cure de rigeur for sporting men. "Into the saloon you'd go, the kindly internist behind the bar would manipulate a bottle or two, and zam! There stood the glass packed with vitamins, proteins, and complex sugars, foaming brightly and aglow with the promise of sweet release," writes David Wondrich in Imbibe! If you've never tried a Pink Lady before, now's the time.
Good luck to you, dear readers! As Virginia Elliot and Phil D. Strong wrote in their 1930 volume Shake 'Em Up, always remember to "Take cheer from the thought that if you are healthy enough to suffer acutely, you will probably live."
1 oz Fernet
.5 oz ginger syrup
.5 oz lemon juice
Dash Peychaud's bitters
Dash Angostura bitters
Shake ingredients with ice & strain over new ice in a highball glass. Top with ginger beer.

It is possible that Jeremy Scahill's book Dirty Wars is the most important book to hit Washington D.C. since Uncle Toms Cabin. I haven't talked to anyone in Washington in the past month who hasn't been reading it, talking about it, thinking about it, etc. There are a lot of people in Congress, of both parties, who have been deeply influenced by the book, and its implications. One of the interesting legal questions being raised by Congressman who were not in Congress in 2001 is whether their predecessors, absent a constitutional amendment, could authorized a permanent state of war without basic congressional oversight, binding on the Congress forever. While programs like Social Security clearly don't sunset, war declarations do when the circumstances giving rise to war are over and, by many calculations, the post 9/11 war ended on the day when bin Laden died. That is the subject of intense debate right now, and I give Scahill full credit for the fact that Obama rushed to the microphone on Thursday and began to back peddle on the Global War on Terror. Proof positive that a healthy journalistic community is a valid check on executive abuse.
But declaring a rollback, even partial, of the War on Terror, doesn't cure war crimes and high crimes and misdemeanors already committed. Increasingly, folk in Washington are referring to these crimes by the page numbers of Scahill's book. By way of example, you hear of 424Gate. Page 424 includes tells "the curious case of Raymond Davis," an apparent private contractor arrested in Pakistan for murder. The chapter details the efforts of the Obama Administration to get Davis out of Pakistan and to avoid a trial, and it contains all of the elements of the high crimes and misdemeanors that should lead to Obama's impeachment–violations of the sovereignty of Pakistan, interference with and manipulation of the American media in reporting the story, interference in the domestic criminal justice system of Pakistan, murder, mayhem, deceit and fraud. On page 424, Scahill narrates how the Obama Administration sent then-Senator John Kerry to Pakistan to lie for the administration. He writes that John Kerry trotted out the falsehood that Davis was a diplomat, noting that "it is highly doubtful that John Kerry believed that Davis was an 'administrative, technical employee of the embassy…" At least one Washington insider has posited that Kerry, who was likely to be the next Secretary of State, was sent on this mission to "make his bones," to prove to Obama that he was willing to lie to the world as an audition for his future job, and that he was subsequently rewarded for his efforts. Of course, the incident also reflects on the Benghazi episode, as it makes clear the extent to which Obama has converted our embassies to military outposts, thereby making our diplomats legitimate military targets. There is a huge difference between attacks on our diplomatic missions overseas in the Bush years (which were clearly terrorist attacks) and the attack on the consulate in Libya (which had become a legitimate military target) As a constitutional professor, this is clearly understood by Obama. What happened in Libya is not surprising when you know that the Obama Administration was acting in violation of dozens of treaties and laws that protect our diplomats. But the story also demonstrates the degree to which the American media has become untrustworthy as a conveyor of truth about the war on terror. 424Gate ties together all of the Obama sleaze–failure to protect diplomats, targeting internal enemies and manipulating the media, not to mention cover up and deceit, all make their appearance in this one curious episode.
424Gate encapsulates all the worst abuses of the Obama Administration, and provides the ideal blueprint not only for the impeachment of this president, but also the need for criminal process against Obama–if not here than in the Hague.
