McCain reconsidering filibuster of Hagel
McCain wants administration to answer lingering question related to Benghazi attack
In an effort to pressure the Obama administration to answer a lingering question related to the Benghazi attack, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is reconsidering his pledge not to filibuster the nomination of former Sen. Chuck Hagel to be defense secretary, according to his spokesman Brian Rogers.
McCain wants to know if the president ever personally contacted anyone in the Libyan government during the Benghazi attack to seek assistance for the Americans in the compound. McCain, along with Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Sen. Kelly Ayotte, R-N.H., have been trying to get the answer for months, said Rogers, and they reiterated their request in a letter to the president on Monday.
McCain "is not calling for a filibuster in the sense of stopping the nomination cold," Rogers explained. But the senators are "entitled" to a response and it "should be very easy for the administration to answer," he said.
A decision to filibuster Hagel's nomination, would be an about face for McCain who said recently "I don't think it's appropriate and I would oppose such a move."

As favorable reviews of his debate performance continued rolling in, Mitt Romney sought to capitalize on the momentum from his first head-to-head match-up against President Obama at an energetic rally Thursday night in Virginia.
The GOP presidential nominee had a busy night: He reconnected with his running mate Paul Ryan, accepted the endorsement of the National Rifle Association and declared his day brightened by a pre-speech concert by country star Trace Adkins - all at a rollicking outdoor rally attended by more than 6,000 supporters in western Virginia's Shenandoah Valley.
While Romney hewed largely to his usual stump speech, the audience erupted when he mentioned the previous night's debate.
"Now last night was an important night for the country," Romney said, as the audience responded with sustained cheers. "I got the chance to ask the president questions that people across the country have wanted to ask him," including on the president's health care plan and the economy.
"What you didn't hear last night from the president is why it is the next four years are possibly going to be better than the last four years," Romney continued later in his speech, circling back to the debate. "He doesn't have a way to explain that, because he has the same policies for the next four years as he had for the last four years."
Both Romney and his running mate Paul Ryan seized upon comments earlier in the day by Vice President Joe Biden, who said he and the president were in favor of letting tax cuts for the wealthy expire.
"The vice president blurted out the truth today," Romney said. "They plan on raising taxes on the American people, and that will kill jobs. We will not let that happen."
Many of the thousands of supporters wore orange caps emblazoned with the logo of the National Rifle Association, which endorsed Romney on Thursday. Prior to the former Massachusetts governor's speech, spokesmen for the group harshly criticized both Obama and the national news media.
"Let's send a message to national news media - their coverage of this race is a national disgrace," said NRA Political Victory Fund Chairman Chris Cox. "We have a message for CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS: You will not decide the outcome of this election. We the people will decide the outcome of this election."
Romney has had a sometimes-strained relationship with the NRA, but his running mate Paul Ryan touted his hunting experience in accepting the endorsement Thursday.
"I have my phone here. It's got a blaze orange and camouflage cover, because it reminds me after we elect Mitt Romney president, I get to take my daughter deer hunting," he said to cheers.
Romney will spend the next three days campaigning in Virginia and Florida, with a major foreign policy address slated for Monday at the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington.

New York—BtoB today announced the finalists for the tech and nontech People's Choice awards.
Readers can vote for their favorites in each of the People's Choice categories by visiting www.btobonline.com/peoples_choice_2013. Online voting ends March 1, and the awards will be presented at BtoB's Social Media Marketing Awards luncheon March 20 at the Hotel Nikko in San Francisco. The luncheon will take place during BtoB's daylong Digital Edge Live conference.
The nontech People's Choice finalists are: Aon, Emerson Climate Technologies and New Cities Foundation. The tech finalists are: Adobe Systems, Dell Inc. and Deltek Inc.
Best Integrated Campaign, Nontech, winner: Aon
Campaign: Global Service Day
To celebrate its 25th anniversary as a global brand, Aon devoted a single day to rallying its 62,000 employees to donate 25,000 hours of service to their local communities. Colleagues and partners were urged to use social channels to tell about the good work they were doing all over the world and to contribute photos to a master Facebook page. The #AonPassItOn hashtag tracked activity on Twitter, and more than 80 photos were posted on Facebook.
Gamification, a tactic that's common to many social media campaigns these days, also was used. Aon contacted 50 social media influencers and encouraged them to participate in the community service initiative, promising a sneak peek at the company's Global Citizenship Report and entry in a giveaway as incentives. Results exceeded goals by 400%, with nearly 140,000 impressions and a 32% growth in Facebook activity over the previous month.
Best Integrated Campaign, Nontech, runner-up: New Cities Foundation
Campaign: DeusM Social Media Campaign
New Cities Foundation is a nonprofit Swiss institution dedicated to improving living conditions in urban centers of emerging nations. Hoping to drive registrations for its summit last May, the organization enlisted UBM DeusM to field a grassroots campaign on major blogs and social networks. A dedicated editor and social media agent posted questions and polls on Facebook, uploaded documents to SlideShare and Scribd and worked to build the foundation's Twitter following. Urban-themed blogs and communities such as Urbanophile, Untapped Cities and Sustainable Cities Collective were targeted for discussions and posts.
With a small staff working across multiple channels, the one-month campaign drove a 20% increase in conference registrations. Facebook likes tripled, Twitter mentions rose nearly fivefold, and content on SlideShare and Scribd was viewed more than 20,000 times. Targeted Facebook advertising and conventional press releases supported the effort; the formal conference release was picked up by 247 outlets.
Facebook winner: Emerson Climate Technologies
Campaign: Painted Copeland Scroll Compressor Program
Emerson Climate Technologies celebrated two milestones in 2012: 25 years in business and the shipment of the 100 millionth Copeland Scroll compressor, a product that has become a standard in commercial refrigeration and home air conditioning.
There was cause to celebrate, but how do you get people excited about a torpedo-like device that's buried in the innards of a big machine?
How about a contest? Emerson challenged each of its eight Copeland Scroll manufacturing facilities to turn a compressor into a work of art representing its region of the world. A Facebook page was designed for employees, trade schools, community partners and customers to vote for their favorite creation.
Emerson Climate hoped the campaign would generate 1,000 votes. It was off by 134,000. Enthusiasm was so high that more than 10,000 votes were coming in daily as the contest neared its close.
Best Integrated Campaign, Tech, winner: Adobe Systems
Campaign: Metrics, Not Myths
Adobe used psychology to market a new cloud-based suite of tools for managing marketing programs. It designed the "Metrics, Not Myths" campaign to debunk common misconceptions about marketing and give marketers credit for the discipline their profession demands.
Using low-cost paid and earned social media channels, Adobe created and syndicated a series of humorous videos that capture the passion of professional marketers for their work and the frustration of feeling undervalued. A Facebook hub was set up to host the video content and encourage engagement. The page hosted ongoing discussions with marketing experts on the value of social media, while a companion contest encouraged marketers to share the biggest misconceptions about their field.
The campaign drove more than 2,200 social media posts within its first three days and 1.1 million video views the first month. The Facebook page added 11,000 Likes. It also drove countless smiles on the faces of beleaguered marketers.
Best Integrated Campaign, Tech, runner-up: Deltek Inc.
Campaign: Connect More
You don't see many campaigns that use as many outlets as Deltek did to promote its Insight 2012 user conference. To drive awareness and registrations—and deliver updates to non-attendees—the company employed Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, SlideShare, YouTube and Instagram.
Facebook was the hub for photos and updates. Twitter hashtags #Insight2012 and #BestofInsight generated the most interactions of any social channel. A LinkedIn group hosted conversations before and after the event. The best presentations from previous conferences were plucked from the archive and a new one was posted on SlideShare each day leading up to the event.
YouTube brought prospective attendees videos from past conference, and Deltek partnered with InstaPrint to print on-site photos uploaded to Instagram with the #Insight2012 hashtag.
The campaign generated nearly 700 new Twitter followers and 900 tweets. YouTube videos were watched more than 10,000 times, and Deltek added 1, 000 followers to its LinkedIn company page.
LinkedIn winner: Dell Inc.
Campaign: LinkedIn Page
As one of the most prominent users of social media for customer engagement and support, Dell wanted to do LinkedIn right. It has been a leader in leveraging the most sophisticated features of LinkedIn's company pages and in making effective use of LinkedIn groups to build sub-communities around customer interests.
With more than 400,000 followers, Dell's LinkedIn company page is a major avenue for communicating news and career opportunities to its constituents. Dell posts multiple updates to the page each day and currently lists nearly 700 jobs. The company was the first to use LinkedIn's new Careers page and targeted status updates and to showcase its products in the Products & Services tab.
What really impresses us about Dell's LinkedIn presence, however, is its many groups. They include the 3,000-member Dell TechCenter, a 10,000-member Business Solutions Exchange devoted to management advice, and even an invitation-only group for CIOs.

Wrong Color
While I love these pants and ordered them online thinking I was getting a grey pant, when they arrived they were tan or khaki pants. I couldn't figure out what happened to the pants that I ordered and thought that they sent me the wrong pants but in double checkng it was the right pant just a poor descriptiong of the color. Still love the fit of these pants but would not have ordered them if I knew they were tan since I really wanted a light grey pant.
May 9, 2013
Great for Summer
I bought these for Florida summers. They are prefect, the pants look nice and are light weight. If however, you live in a cold state I would not buy these as they are not lined and probably very cold then. Living in a very hot state these pants are perfect! The slim means the bottoms are slim and do not "flare" out with a dramatic bootcut yet are not skinny.
May 1, 2013
Awesome pants BUT...
I absolutely LOVE the exact stretch pant line at The Limited. They fit me perfectly and always look great at the office. I would've given 5 stars BUT they describe the color of these pants as Grey and they are not. I would describe it as a tannish/grey. Was going to return them but once I tried them on I had to keep them. These are, by far, the best line of pants I have ever owned. LOVE LOVE LOVE the exact stretch but beware - if you are expecing grey pants...these are not.
January 24, 2013
Elephant Grey isn't really Grey
My only problem with this pair is I thought I was buying the color grey, but in reality it's like khaki light brown-ish color. This actually worked out fine for me after I realized I had many pairs of grey pants already. But if you are looking to buy a light grey pants, this is not the one to get!
The fit is great, very slimming. I wear a 2 in most pants and I got a 2 for this and fit great. There's a little stretch, and it's just shaped really well for my 5'6 height. I recommend it.
January 17, 2013
Just purchased
After viewing these pants online, I immediately went to the nearest store to try them on. The pictures displayed here are a bit misleading. The color of the pants are literally synonymous to the name "Elephant Grey." It is a lot darker in person compared to the photos and is nothing like the whitish-light grey you have seen. I am a pants size 3 and ended up purchasing these pants in a size 4, with it being baggy since size 2 was tight. Overall, the pinstripe styling is unique and these pants look good when worn. I would suggest to try these on in-store before purchasing them online.
January 10, 2013
Perfect and very comfortable
I love these pants. Initially I ordered a size 16 which I usually wear but because the pants have a bit of stretch materials, I exchanged them for a smaller size. I usually have to let out all my pants because they are short but these fit perfectly. I received more then a few compliments on these pants, they really look expensive and I already told 2 of my colleagues where to buy them. I am buying another pair excellent product.
January 3, 2013
best work pants in the world
These are my favorite pants of the moment. They fit so well and are very flattering. I hate shopping for pants (love shopping in general!) because it's so hard to find ones that fit just right, but these really do. I have about 5 pairs of them!
December 26, 2012
Great fitting and nice looking pants.

text: At its meeting on Wednesday, December 12, the University's Board of Trustees unanimously and enthusiastically named Peter Tobin as Dean Emeritus of the College that bears his name. The Board took this action "in recognition of his great generosity and his extraordinary record of accomplishment in strengthening business education at St. John's University." Dean Emeritus Tobin served as Dean from 1998-2003. During those years, he worked successfully to strengthen and transform the College, leading it into the 21st century. He focused on securing additional international support for the business programs offered at the University's campus in Rome, Italy. And he spearheaded the successful merger of St. John's and The College of Insurance (TCI). That institution's programs, employees, students, and alumni became part of St. John's University through creation of the School of Risk Management and Insurance, which is housed within TCB. In addition, what had been The College of Insurance campus on Murray Street in New York City became St. John's Manhattan campus. Himself a graduate of the College that now bears his name, Dean Emeritus Tobin earned a Bachelor of Business Administration with a major in accounting in 1965. He then went on to an eminently successful career in public accounting and banking, retiring as Chief Financial Officer of Chase Manhattan Corporation. Always close to alma mater, he has been recognized by St. John's with an honorary Doctor of Commercial Science; with the Spirit of Service Award, given to those whose commitment to serving others emulates that of St. Vincent DePaul, and the Medal of Honor, the highest award that can be given to an alumnus. In 1999, Peter and his wife, Mary, currently a member of the University's Board of Trustees, made an historic donation to the College of Business. In grateful acknowledgement, St. John's renamed the College after him. Currently, Peter Tobin continues to serve St. John's as a member of the University's Board of Governors.

Classic Car News
Jaguar targets BMW
Image: The Car Spy,2005
British automotive manufacturer, Jaguar, has always faced stiff competition from its European rivals, particularly at the more affordable end of the pricing spectrum.
The Jaguar X-Type, which first arrived in 2001, is a perfect example of its attempts to take on competing cars like the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4.
Now the Jaguar X-Type has retired, the company does not really have anything on offer to steal market share away from the Germans.
AutoCar reports that this could all change, as Jaguar is apparently working on a new compact executive sedan, to fill the gap left by the X-Type.
Of course for those who want to invest in classic cars, the X-Type might still be a sensible buy. It may be based on Ford underpinnings, but it is still a powerful and luxurious auto that should become even more desirable over the years, if you are willing to take the time to look after it.
Earlier Jaguars, such as the E-Type or the XJ, are also sensible choices and still look great on American roads, because they are styled in a manner that sets them apart from domestic cars. Fans can only hope that the new entry level Jag is as good as those before it.

National Baked Alaska day
Juneau February 1 is National Baked Alaska Day?
When the U.S. purchased the Alaska territory in 1876, chef Charles Ranhofer of Delmonico's restaurant in New York City wanted a dessert to celebrate its acquisition. The French-born chef made an impressive omelette à la norvégienne (Norwegian omelet) and renamed it "Baked Alaska" for the occasion.
The seemingly science-defying Baked Alaska is made by baking ice cream inside cake and meringue.
Making Baked Alaska at home is a bit involved, but with some patience, you'll be left with quite an impressive dessert.
Ice cream is molded into a bowl or loaf pan and then covered with a layer of cake. The bowl is then placed in the freezer for an hour or so. After it's had time to set, the dome-shaped ice cream cake is easily removed from the bowl (because you remembered to line the bowl with plastic wrap, right?).The entire thing is covered in a layer of whipped egg whites and sugar, better known as meringue. A hot oven or blow torch slightly browns and sets the meringue, and voila -- Baked Alaska.
If you're feeling a little fancy, you can always pour a little alcohol over the Alaska and flambé it, just remember to keep the kids (and pets) clear of the flames.

Message from the group owner
No matter what stage you are in, on this crazy journey so long as you are wanting to get pregnant you are welcomed to post here with friends who will be there to support you along the way.
If you are not TTC at all and are worried about being pregnant, the Am I Pregnant board would be the best place for you post, please find that here:
Am I Pregnant Board
First if you are new to BabyCenter you may have noticed a new lingo that you just don't understand. Things like AF, BD, CM, EPO, BCP, etc. You will find a list of these acronyms and what they all mean here.
BabyCenter Acronyms
BFP (Big Fat Positive) posts are always welcomed here no matter how long you have been trying for! If you need a pregnancy test "tweaked" please visit this group.
Test Tweakers ~ All Members Can Tweak!
1: Please reserve RED font for GO use. This way if we need to say something important the red makes it obvious it's a GO statement and helps prevent confusion
2: Please do not type in all CAPITAL LETTERS, when typing in this manner it indicates that you are yelling at somebody, and it is not appreciated here.
3: If you decide to make your own group on BBC or have found one that you really like please ask the GOs via PAN if you can advertise that group in a thread. Most of the time we will be fine with it but we appreciate being asked first. If there are threads advertising other groups without permission from one of the GOs the thread will be deleted. Promoting link to other forum (similar to that of BBC) is strictly forbidden by the Global Moderators. Also if it is found that there is bad or negative talk about the Getting Pregnant Board on the board you are advertising. Your rights will be revoked and your post advertising your board/group will be closed.
4: Posts that are created as a spin off about a closed post will remain open until they create a community distruption that warrants closing or a temporary cooling off time. It is perfectly fine if you would like to vent, heck we all need to vent at some point ... but there is a line between venting and disrupting. If you have an issue with the board or a GO, please direct your concern to the Community MODs.
5: There are to be no repeat threads ... This means you can not keep posting the same question over and over again. Ask your question once, if your post gets lost and buried write "bump" this will bring your post back to the first page for others to see. If you make repeat posts they will be turned off with no warning being given and a link given to the other thread already opened (or the repeat thread will be deleted).
6: Copy Right ~ If you find something from a BabyCenter article, you can copy and paste the whole article and post where you got it from. If you are copying an article from the interent or other source, please limit it and post a link to the article or person that you found the information from. Also please provide a link to the source you got it from whether it is from another source or babycenter. Also please provide a link to the source you got it from whether it is from another source or babycenter.
7: Once you have gotten your BFP, please feel free to join the new "Our BFP Thread." Here you can post updates, Dr appts, ask questions about HCG levels or anything else pregnancy related. In addition ~ If you have your small close nit group, I know how close all you ladies can become with all the things that you share with each other, you can now have you pregnancy updates in these thread ~ AS LONG AS all the member in THAT thread are okay with it. But you are still NOT allowed to post about pregnancy updates, HCG levels updates, Test Updates, Dr appt updates, or anything else considered pregnancy related outside of these two areas. You will promptly be redirected to the Birth Clubs main page to find your BB and/or to Our BFP Thread. We are primarily a TTC group please keep that in mind.
8: Personal attacks are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. If you see someything that you consider a PA, please report it and we will look into it. PAs can be taken differently by different people. We do look at every report with serious consideration of what is best for the group.
9: Hate-speech is not permitted. No racial slurs or religious slurs
10: Do not deliberately disrupt the community. This is anything we GO's see as disruption such as creating drama threads or journals after a thread has been shut down.
11. Swearing in the titles of threads ~ If you swear in a title we will close your thread until you change the title, we will give you a 24 hour notice, if it's not changed it will be deleted. Using "WTF" is not considered swearing as it can stand for many many different things. Swearing in a post is perfectly fine as long as it is not 90% of the post.
12: Bullying or harassment will not be tolerated. If you see any of this, please report it so it can be handled as fast as possible.
13: Illegal activity is not allowed on the site. No selling drugs of any sort including prescrption or recreational. No selling of children(yes it happens). If you want to sell something like unused HPTs, OPKs, Fertility monitor there are swap boards that you can join in Babycenter.

COQUILLE, Ore. -- Oregon authorities are investigating how a farmer was eaten by his hogs.
Terry Vance Garner, 69, never returned after he set out to feed his animals last Wednesday on his farm near the Oregon coast, the Coos County district attorney said Monday.
A family member found Garner's dentures and pieces of his body in the hog enclosure several hours later, but most of his remains had been consumed, District Attorney Paul Frasier said. Several of the hogs weighed 700 pounds or more.
It's possible Garner had a medical emergency, such as a heart attack, or was knocked over by the animals, then killed and eaten, Frasier said, adding that at least one hog had previously bitten Garner.
The possibility of foul play is being investigated as well.
"For all we know, it was a horrific accident, but it's so doggone weird that we have to look at all possibilities," Frasier told The Register-Guard.
A pathologist was unable to identify a cause or manner of death, the newspaper reported. The remains will be examined by a forensic anthropologist at the University of Oregon.
Terry Garner was "a good-hearted guy" who cared for several huge adult sows and a boar named Teddy, said his brother, Michael Garner, 75, of Myrtle Point.
Piglets were typically sold to local 4-H kids.
"Those animals were his life," Michael Garner said. "He had all kinds of birds, and turkeys that ran all over the place. Everybody knew him."
Michael Garner said one of the large sows bit his brother last year when he accidentally stepped on a piglet.
"He said he was going to kill it, but when I asked him about it later, he said he had changed his mind," the brother said.
Domestic hogs are not typically known to be as aggressive as their feral cousins, but "there is some degree of danger associated with any animal," John Killefer, who heads the Animal and Rangeland Sciences Department at Oregon State University in Corvallis, told the newspaper.
While pigs "are more omnivorous than other farm animals, (such as) cows," Killefer called the case highly unusual.
Most hogs are raised until they reach a market weight of between 250 and 300 pounds, while breeding female pigs rarely weigh more than 400 pounds, Killefer said.

Boy Finds Lizard in Loaf of Bread
A HORRIFIED boy found a dead LIZARD in his Tesco toast as he munched his breakfast. William Evans, 10, screamed in terror after making the gruesome find - bringing his dad Marcus running from upstairs. Outraged Mr Evans, of Hawkchurch, near Axminster, Devon, said: "The poor little lad was absolutely traumatised by it. "He went to take a slice off for some toast, turned the loaf over and found the lizard stuck on the bottom." He added: "It was one of Axminster Tesco's baked in-store, multi-grain brown loaves. "The lizard had not been cooked so it must have got into the packaging and died there. "You could see the impression of its body in the bread so it must have been warm when he got in." William, a pupil at Hawkchurch Primary School, said: "I was making some toast and cut off a slice when I saw something that looked like a leaf. "So I took the wrapping off and found the lizard inside. "It certainly put me off my toast! "It was about two to three inches long." His mum Clare said it would have been even worse if William had sliced through the end with the lizard on it - and eaten it. "That would have been even more distressing," she said. Mr Evans, a volunteer church worker, said they had alerted Tesco's customer service department. He said they told him it was impossible for a lizard to get in one of their loaves because of their high level of hygiene "I am surprised they didn't tell me 'every little helps'," said angry Marcus. "They have asked me to take it into the manager but I am thinking of contacting environmental health officers. "We are keeping the lizard and loaf in the fridge for evidence." A Tesco spokesman said: "We have conducted a thorough inspection of the bakery area as well as the rest of the store. "We are confident that our robust procedures mean that there was no food safety risk to the product whilst it was within the store. "If the customer would like to return the product, packaging and proof of purchase to us, we will be able to investigate further."
