In The Burbs
9:39 PM EDT, April 3, 2012
In March 1962, a terrible Nor'easter dubbed the Ash Wednesday Storm churned up the East Coast and devastated hundreds of miles of shoreline, including my favorite shore spot, Ocean City, N.J.
That pretty place and other New Jersey resort areas took an $84 million hit, which in today's dollars would be north of $500 million. Beachfront homes were shattered to bits and the sand had settled deep in the streets, like the snows of a blizzard.
But the shore towns had unexpected help in bouncing back from the disaster. A couple of weeks after the storm, 750 Allentonians in a mile-long automobile caravan arrived to start rebuilding structures and shoveling sand.
Among them was Warren Armstrong, an advertising man who had publicized what organizers called "Operation Help."
"The support was amazing," Armstrong said Monday when I called to chat about the 50th anniversary of this notable but largely forgotten chapter of city history. "It was a case of neighbor helping neighbor."
The storm killed 40 people as it chewed away at the coast from North Carolina to New England from March 6-8.
At Rehoboth Beach, Del., a 40-foot wave swept the shore. In Long Beach Island, N.J., the ocean met the bay in several spots. In Atlantic City, part of the Steel Pier was torn away.
"The doggone storm just hung off the coast there and just kept pouring in the wind and the rain and the high tides," recalled Armstrong, who is retired now but still lives in Allentown and keeps a pile of memorabilia from the time.
The late Charley Zaimes, who led a busy and distinguished life as a newsman, public servant and pleasure boat captain, was broadcasting in those days for the Allentown radio station, WSAN. When he wondered on air whether anyone might be interested in going down the shore to help with the recovery, the station switchboard lit up.
Many of the callers were members of the "Brothers of the Brush," a group of civic-minded gents who had grown beards in honor of Allentown's bicentennial. Zaimes recruited the group's chairman, Neil Mullen, to help organize the trip, and asked Armstrong to publicize it.
The caravan — 90 cars, trucks and buses — set off in the predawn hours of Sunday, March 25, from the Allentown Fairgrounds, after religious services and a breakfast of coffee and doughnuts. Allentown police escorted them to the Pennsylvania Turnpike. State police led them to the Walt Whitman Bridge, and the New Jersey State Police took it from there. A cinematographer named Stan Watson committed everything to 16 mm film for a planned documentary.
Armstrong had done a stellar publicity job. Seemingly every reporter on the East Coast — plus correspondents from Radio Free Europe, the Associated Press and other outlets — came to Ocean City to report on the caravan.
"Most human beings are kind and compassionate underneath it all and if only given the opportunity to help others, they will," Zaimes told the crowd, which included New Jersey Gov. Richard Hughes (he thanked the Pennsylvanians for their "neighborliness").
Armstrong had been visiting Ocean City since childhood. In an essay he wrote about the adventure, he remembers the shattered boardwalk and the giant heaps of sand.
"I was just flabbergasted at the devastation," he told me.
The Pennsylvanians dug in for a long day's labor. Volunteer carpenters helped repair the boardwalk, while hundreds of others shoveled the beach sand back to the beach where it belonged.
At the end of the day, Ocean City Mayor Nathaniel Smith credited the volunteers with rekindling the spirit of the community.
"I know our people will redouble their efforts to get things shipshape as soon as possible," he said.
These days, when people celebrate sports championships by overturning cars and setting them on fire, the civil impulse at the heart of Operation Help is cheering to ponder.
Armstrong said he'd like to bring more attention to the event in its anniversary year, but the documentary film, which he narrated, has been lost.
This is where you might be able to help. Armstrong said WFMZ-TV broadcast the film during its "Talk of the Town" show in 1987. He's hoping someone might have recorded the segment. If so, please let him know at firstname.lastname@example.com

The SEC channel isn't getting on basic cable in Texas, or Missouri.
Time Warner, Cox, Comcast are ALL trying to reduce the number of lightly watched channels in their standard bundles. The biggest reason is the cost of sports programming plus the expense of carrying lightly watched channels like WE or OWN.Their business is hurting.
SEC TV might very well get on basic cable in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, TN etc. Not disputing that...But it possibly won't in Florida and it certainly won't in Texas or MO.
The cable providers are not at all happy with the cost of sport content. They aren't trying to add more right now. You add SEC TV to basic cable, people's bills have to go up or your profit goes down. One or the other. No way around it. I don't think the Espinoza family in San Antonio Texas will be happy when they learn that Joker Phillips highlights just caused their bill to grow.
I think the SEC TV economics will ONE DAY normalize to what the Big Ten gets, despite the population difference. I don't see the viability of/demand for the product in much of Texas or MO.

That, coupled with a 78-73 loss to Louisiana Tech at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas in the WAC tourney semifinals left Nevada tasting sour grapes as it fell to 26-6 overall.
Nevada, which trailed throughout much of Friday's tourney tilt, fought back to take the lead in the final 10 minutes of the game. The Wolf Pack took a 71-69 lead after Malik Story dropped a 3-point bomb at the 2:50 mark of the second half.
That's as good as it got for Nevada. Louisiana Tech finished the game on a 9-2 run and wound up earning a berth in the tournament's title game tonight against New Mexico State. The Bulldogs are just the second No. 6 seed in the WAC's history to reach the conference tournament title game.
Nevada, which found itself down by three at halftime, was still down by five, 53-48, with 13:35 remaining in the game. The five-point Bulldogs lead came after Raheem Appleby canned two free throws following a technical foul call against Nevada coach David Carter, who was incensed after he believed Pack point guard Deonte Burton had been fouled on the previous possession.
The technical foul seemed to get Nevada going. The Wolf Pack scored seven straight points in a span of just over a minute and forged ahead 55-53 with 11:02 still left.
Louisiana Tech did not lose its composure. The Bulldogs responded by scoring eight of the next 10 points and grabbed a 61-57 lead.
The league rivals traded buckets to Nevada's 71-69 lead, setting the stage for LTU's late-game heroics.
Nevada went into halftime down by three, 42-39. The deficit was largely due to Louisiana Tech's red-hot shooting in the first half. The Bulldogs knocked down their first six shots from the beyond the arc and were 8-of-10 from three-point land in the initial 20 minutes.
With seven and a half minutes to go before halftime, Louisiana Tech had just knocked down back-to-back treys. At that point, the Bulldogs had a 34-19 lead. Louisiana Tech used an 18-3 burst to grab that 15-point edge after the contest had been knotted at 16-16 at the 13:25 mark of the first half.
Nevada chipped away at the Louisiana Tech lead through the last seven minutes before halftime. A 12-3 Wolf Pack surge was capped by a Kevin Panzer corner 3-pointer after a drive and kickout. The spurt got Nevada within six, 37-31, with 3:42 showing on the first-half clock.
Louisiana Tech scored five of the next seven points to push its lead up to nine, 42-33, but Nevada responded by closing out the first-half scoring with back-to-back 3-pointers, from Panzer and Burton, accounting for the 42-39 halftime score.
Trevor Gaskin scored 21 points to lead Louisiana Tech, which held Burton, the WAC's Player of the Year, to just five points. Story paced Nevada offensively, finishing with 21 points.

|Reducing by one third the deaths due to pneumonia
Related Publications
Pneumonia and Diarrhoea: Tackling the deadliest diseases for the worlds poorest children [Eng] [Fr]
The challenge
Pneumonia: a leading killer of children
Pneumonia is the leading killer of children. Of the estimated 6.9 million child deaths each year, 18 per cent or 1.2 million are due to pneumonia.
This toll is highly concentrated in the poorest regions and countries and among the most disadvantaged children within these societies. Nearly 90 per cent of deaths due to pneumonia as well as diarrhoea occur in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.
Mortality due to childhood pneumonia is strongly linked to poverty-related factors including undernutrition, lack of access to safe water and adequate sanitation, indoor air pollution and inadequate access to health care. Therefore an integrative approach to tackle this important public health issue is an urgent need.
Terminology: Acute respiratory infections, pneumonia and suspected pneumonia
Acute respiratory infection (ARI): This includes any infection of the upper or lower respiratory system, as defined by the International Classification of Diseases. Acute lower respiratory infections (ALRI) affect the airways below the epiglottis and include severe infections, such as pneumonia.
Pneumonia: Pneumonia is a severe form of acute lower respiratory infection that specifically affects the lungs, and accounts for a significant proportion of the ALRI disease burden. The lungs are composed of thousands of tubes (bronchi) that subdivide into smaller airways (bronchioles), which end in small sacs (alveoli). The alveoli contain capillaries where oxygen is added to the blood and carbon dioxide is removed. With pneumonia, pus and fluid fill the alveoli in one or both lungs, and this interferes with oxygen absorption, making breathing difficult.
Suspected pneumonia: Suspected pneumonia refers to children with a combination of respiratory symptoms for which they should seek clinical assessment for pneumonia by an appropriate provider. These respiratory symptoms include cough and fast or difficult breathing due to a chest-related problem. Not all children with suspected pneumonia should receive antibiotic treatment, only those with pneumonia as classified by the Integrated Management of Child Illness guidelines (based on a rapid respiratory rate counted by a health worker). It is not possible to measure such pneumonia prevalence among children under age 5 during a household survey interview or to ascertain underlying pneumonia illness for children with these respiratory symptoms. Thus, data collected through national household surveys, such as Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS) and Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS), report pneumonia prevalence based on information regarding whether children have experienced coughing and fast or difficult breathing (due to a problem in the chest) in the two weeks prior to the survey, and these children have not necessarily been diagnosed by a health professional.
Prevention and case management can reduce childhood pneumonia deaths
Preventing children from developing pneumonia is critical to reducing deaths. Efforts include basic child survival interventions such as:
Immunizing children (especially with measles, Hib and pneumococcal conjugate vaccines)
Ensuring adequate nutrition, primarily exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life, as well as zinc and vitamin A intake.
Reducing indoor air pollution
Promoting basic hygiene practices, such as washing hands with soap and proper disposing of childrens faeces.
But once a child develops pneumonia, prompt treatment with a full course of effective antibiotics is lifesaving because most severe cases are caused by bacterial pathogens. And since access to health services is limited in many developing countries, prompt treatment may also require training health workers to diagnose and treat children with pneumonia in the community.
Studies show that community health workers can effectively manage uncomplicated pneumonia. Case management includes classifying suspected cases, based on breathing rates and lower chest wall indrawing (where the chest retracts during inhalation), treating non-severe pneumonia cases with antibiotics and referring severe pneumonia cases to health facilities, where possible.

Hi all,
I am looking to install SL on a revived Dell 700m after Windows 7 is not fully supported [video]. I installed using Prasys on a fujitsu before but was hoping for some good guidance on getting SL on the 700m
Several attempts last night using EmpireEFI [v1.0-1.085] and SL install DVD on USB key failed me..
Seems more than a few have this notebook and have tried in the past.
What works / fails?
Do you need wall power when booting up [read this somewhere]
Is it worthwhile- i have a couple of MBP [e and the wife] but would be nice to have another mac for the kids to play with - plus it is fun making it work.
Br Maj

The Associated Press
LONDON — David Frost may be best remembered for his post-Watergate interviews with former President Richard Nixon, but the veteran British broadcaster was equally at ease as a satirist, game show host and serious political journalist.
Former U.S. President Richard M. Nixon, right, with broadcaster David Frost in California in 1977. Frost died Saturday night at the age of 74, his family said in a statement on Sunday.
The Associated Press
David Frost interviewed the world's most powerful and famous in a TV career that spanned 50 years.
The Associated Press
In a television career that spanned half a century across both sides of the Atlantic, Frost interviewed a long list of the world's most powerful and famous, including virtually every British prime minister and U.S. president of his time. He also was a gifted entertainer, a born TV host, and his amiable and charming personality was often described as the key to his success as interviewer.
"Being interviewed by him was always a pleasure but also you knew that there would be multiple stories the next day arising from it," former British Prime Minister Tony Blair said.
Blair's former communications chief, Alastair Campbell, added on Twitter that Frost was "one of best interviewers because his sheer niceness could lull you into saying things you didn't intend."
Frost, 74, died of a heart attack on Saturday night aboard the Queen Elizabeth cruise ship, where he was due to give a speech, his family said. The BBC said it received the statement from Frost's family saying it was devastated and asking "for privacy at this difficult time." The cruise company Cunard said its vessel left the English port of Southampton on Saturday for a 10-day cruise in the Mediterranean.
Prime Minister David Cameron, one of the first public officials to send condolences, praised Frost for being an "extraordinary man with charm, wit, talent, intelligence and warmth in equal measure," while BBC executives lauded him as "a titan of broadcasting."
Frost began his career almost fresh out of college as the host of an early 1960s BBC satirical news show "That Was The Week That Was," then a pioneering program that ruthlessly lampooned politicians. The show gained a wide following, and Frost's signature greeting, "Hello, good evening and welcome" was often mimicked.
Frost was popular in Britain and just beginning to launch a career on U.S. television when he became internationally known in 1977 with a series of television interviews with Nixon.
They were groundbreaking for Frost and the ex-president, who was trying to salvage his reputation after resigning from the White House in disgrace following the Watergate scandal three years earlier. At the time, it was the most widely watched news interview in the history of TV.
The interviewer and his subject sparred through the first part of the interview, but Frost later said he realized he didn't have what he wanted as it wound down. Nixon had acknowledged mistakes, but Frost pressed him on whether that was enough. Americans, he said, wanted to hear him own up to wrongdoing and acknowledge abuse of power – and "unless you say it, you're going to be haunted for the rest of your life."
"That was totally off-the-cuff," Frost later said. "That was totally ad-lib. In fact, I threw my clipboard down just to indicate that it was not prepared in any way. ... I just knew at that moment that Richard Nixon was more vulnerable than he'd ever be in his life. And I knew I had to get it right."
After more pressing, Nixon relented. "I let the American people down and I have to carry that burden with me for the rest of my life," he said.

Deadline August 31st to Certify Tobacco Use and Avoid Higher Monthly Premiums
You have until August 31st to certify your non-use of tobacco to avoid additional monthly premium charges, which can be as high as $90 per month, per household.
If you have already certified, you do not have to certify again unless you or your dependents' status as tobacco users or non-users changes. Find more information about changing your status and other details of the tobacco policy at the ERS Question & Answer page.

Don't Be Fooled – Make Sure Your URGENT CARE Center Qualifies
Be aware that some primary care physicians (PCPs) are calling their clinics "urgent care centers," even though they are not credentialed as such. This is particularly true in areas of Texas where there are no urgent care centers available. Employees are utilizing these PCP clinics and offices as urgent care centers, only to find out later that the services they received will not be paid at in-network benefit levels. Make sure to verify that your urgent care center qualifies as a credentialed urgent care center in advance of potential use.
HealthSelectSM of Texas members can get guidance on whether to visit a PCP, urgent care center, or hospital emergency room by calling myNurseLineSM toll-free at (877) 731-8306. Registered nurses are available to help 24/7, at no extra cost to members.

TRAM Pilot Moving Forward
Thanks to the support and work of our pilot groups in Facilities and UHPD the TRAM (Time Reporting & Absence Management) project is moving forward. The pilot groups, together with Human Resources and Information Technology, have learned a lot as they test and refine the new process for rollout to the campus community.

Look for more information on TRAM in September.
Training & Development
New Supervisory Training Being Developed
The HR Training Team has been working with Staff Council this summer to develop a new supervisor training program designed to increase the knowledge and effectiveness of campus leaders. It is not uncommon for supervisors to come into the role without training or former experience, and we want to ensure they are trained and supported so they can be successful and avoid common new-supervisor pitfalls that could impact their effectiveness, as well as affect the employee and even the University. This fall, HR will introduce a collection of online and instructor-led trainings that all supervisors and managers will be required to take during the next year. We are excited about this program and look forward to rolling it out to the campus community in September.

Flu Shot Cost Varies
The health plans in the Texas Employees Group Benefits Program cover preventive flu shots differently, depending on where participants get the shots. The shots are free if they go to their primary care physicians, as long as the providers bill only for an office visit. However, the shots are not free if participants go to pharmacies, because the shots are covered under the medical benefit and not the prescription benefit. If flu shots are offered at the worksite, participants will pay the cost set by the flu shot provider. HealthSelectSM of Texas and other health plans may contract with flu shot providers for this service. The shots may be free, depending on the agreement between the health plan and provider.

Hiking through a tropical forest, Matthew Anders happens upon two other travelers-Michel Lucas and Colby Taylor. The two stunning young men are out enjoying the sights and each other...asking Matthew to snap their photograph amidst the natural splendor of a tropical forest. As soon as Matthew leaves, the couple decides to enjoy their own respective beauty. Colby services his eager friend, taking Michel's stiff uncut cock into his mouth, savoring the tool from tip to shaft, finally bathing his balls with broad sweeps of a soft but insistent tongue. In no time at all, Michel is on his knees returning the Colby's oral affections, his tongue wandering over the balls and into the crevice of Colby's ass, his finger probing the pucker of his hole. Raising him up, Michel fucks Colby hard and fast; he continues the erotic rhythm as the pair lay nestled in the back of their car. Frenzied, anxious for release, the two taut men stroke themselves to orgasm, blasting each other with their thick hot loads.

DiscRotate is a MenuItem that will control the speed of your optical drives. It is written in Cocoa for Mac OS X Leopard and later. It can help you make optical drive operation much quieter. Upon launching, a drive icon will appear in your menu bar at the top. It will list all installed optical drives and let you choose how much throttling applies to each of them. The green bar shows the current setting, and can be clicked to change the throttling speed. 100% means the minimum drive speed. When using heavily scratched CD/DVDs it is recommended to lower the setting to about 85%. Clicking the CD icon in the list will pause throttling for that particular optical drive.
Downloadermac is a Cocoa application for downloading items from the Internet. It frees up your browser for other tasks by reducing the load on your Web browser's process by creating a thread just for downloading items.(e.g. firefox-bin, safari). It is tested on both Panther (10.3.9) and Leopard (10.5).
With one click, FileMyFiles will organize all of the files on your desktop. There are powerful options to change file and folder names.

It can also be scheduled to keep all of your important folders organized. Files are sorted and put into folders according to eight categories of file types: Words, Images, Audio, Compressed, Data, Layout, Video, and Web. FileMyFiles will keep all of your files organized, leaving your desktop and other important folders uncluttered and your files easy to find.
Unlike other Java to Objective-C solutions, Java-Objective-C Bridge doesn't require any code generation of class stubs. It allows you to use any Objective-C libraries and frameworks from Java without having to write any native code. In addition to being able to use Objective-C objects, it allows you to pass Java objects to the objective-c runtime as delegates, so that you can write an entire Cocoa application in Java. The bridge provides 3 levels of abstraction. At the lowest level, it provides wrappers around the Objective-C runtime functions. At a slightly higher level of abstraction, it provides a procedural API to send messages to the Objective-C runtime. At the highest level of abstraction, it provides a Proxy class that serves as a wrapper around any Objective-C object that allows you to work with it in Java almost the same as if you were in Objective-C.
KeyBoards is a cross-operating system platform that synchronizes short text messages or URLs. It is designed to be used for composing messages on a desktop system with a real, comfortable keyboard, and then sending them to a mobile device for transmission as an SMS. It is ideal for use with non-Latin character sets.
Keynesis Lockngo is a security application that runs directly from a portable drive. Lockngo encrypts and password-protects data against loss or theft. When protected, the drive appears empty (data is hidden) and will not allow new data to be written onto it. Lockngo has Military Grade 256-bit AES Encryption, FIPS 140-2 Certified. Lockngo also comes in a cross-platform version for Mac and Windows. This version allows you to lock a drive on a Macintosh and open it on a computer running Windows and vice versa.
Notational Velocity is a Mac OS X desktop application that stores and retrieves notes. The same area is used both for creating notes and searching.

Park River Rancher Says Measure 2 Would Hurt BusinessIf the North Dakota Fenced Hunting Ban passes, the Laaveg family will have to change how their farm is run.
One Rancher in the Northern Valley depends on the sale of his elk to help support his family.
If the North Dakota Fenced Hunting Ban passes, the family will have to change how their farm is run.
For the last seven years, nurturing and raising elk in Park River has been Wayne Laaveg's life.
"I don't want to have to quit," Laaveg said.
If Measure 2 passes on November 2nd the Laaveg's will have to find a different animal to raise because the value of elk will decrease.
"These bulls here I usually sell to the hunting ranch over in Edinberg every year," Laaveg said.
Sales that could be taken away.
The measure also states that ranchers or farmers could no longer charge a fee for people to hunt big-game in a man made enclosure.
"Will I be able to even get rid of these animals? And if I do I would like to be able to charge a fee for them just to make some money off of them, but the way it's written I might not even be able to do that," Laaveg said.
Some say hunting a fenced in animal is unfair, but Laaveg says many times the fenced in areas are hundreds of acres for what is called a fair chase.
As for his land:
"It's private property and I'd really like to protect it and this measure goes against 100-percent I feel of the private property issue." Laaveg said.
If the ban passes, Laaveg says it will put him and others out of the elk and deer business.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Bill Nemitz firstname.lastname@example.com
Dear Governor LePage,
Hear that sound?
It's the long knives coming out – and they're all pointed directly at your back.
Now I admit I'm not exactly a member of Maine's Republican inner circle – assuming such a thing still exists. In fact, I was halfway around the world last week, attending my son's wedding reception in South Korea, when I read the news – on the New York Times website, no less – of your latest bout of foot-in-mouth disease.
President Obama hates white people. I've got to hand it to you, Big Guy, when it comes to this year's nominations for the Right-Wing Crazy Talk Hall of Fame, it's a dead heat right now between you and that ex-cop in Sabattus who called for shooting the president (actually, he used a racial slur) because he thinks Obama wants to take away his wife's Social Security spousal benefits.
Upon returning to Maine this week from Seoul (where I actually came across a few things that reminded me of you, but more on that later), I figured this whole Obama-hates-white-people thing would have blown over just like the "kiss my butt" comment to the NAACP, telling President Obama to "go to hell," the ladies with little beards, the "Gestapo" Internal Revenue Service, the Vaseline scandal, the "cloud of blind hatred" hanging over the Legislature, the labor mural, blowing up the Press Herald ... which, by the way, I was relieved to see didn't happen.
But back to your latest gaffe, which I understand you made at a private fundraiser in Belgrade attended by more than a few pillars of Maine's Republican establishment.
First came the two lawmakers who confirmed anonymously to the Press Herald that you made the crack about Obama and white people.
Then came your claim that you never said it and that we media folks "are all about gossip."
Then, when that didn't work, came your usual non-apologetic apology to your fellow Republicans "for any difficulty that remarks recently reported in the press may have caused you."
I love the way you do that: The problem isn't that you made the remarks, but rather that the media reported them and your Republican friends had "difficulty" digesting them. I swear, if you were caught robbing a bank, you'd blame it on the unmarked bills "that recently found their way into my brown paper bag."
Anyway, I'm hearing that your mea culpa, or whatever it was, hasn't gone over too well in Republican land.
A big reason for that, of course, is that those who attended the Belgrade bash, rather than man (or woman) up and publicly tell the truth about what happened, initially feigned amnesia ("I don't recall hearing that") or sudden hearing loss ("If he said it, I didn't hear it").
Now that you've acknowledged those "remarks," however, your ertswhile defenders look (and I suspect feel) like a bunch of cowering wimps who actually believed that what was said in that room could actually stay in that room.
(Kind of reminds me of a Korean proverb I learned last week: "Words have no wings, but they can fly a thousand miles.")
But this goes way beyond your uncanny ability to make grown men and women tiptoe around you as if you were some kind of improvised explosive device. This time, Governor, it appears you've done some real and lasting damage.
Did you catch that special election this week in state Senate District 19 -- the one in which former Sen. Paula Benoit was widely expected to win back a coveted seat for the Republicans?
Didn't happen, did it, Big Guy? The turnout, at 31 percent, was much higher than expected -- and more than a few of the voters who ended up electing previously unknown Democrat Eloise Vitelli said it was your crack about Obama that propelled them to the polls on a perfect, late-summer beach day.
Bummer, huh Guv? You shoot from the hip and the Republican minority in the Senate takes one in the backside.
The painful truth here, at least for you, is that it's no longer just those you like to call the "loyal opposition" who think your time in the Blaine House has become an unmitigated disaster.
It's a growing number of your own party members -- you know, the ones with brains -- who break into a cold sweat at the thought of you winning re-election next year and spending another four years spewing about all that is wrong with the state you're supposed to be leading. (Coming soon to the turnpike entrance in Kittery: "Welcome to Maine: We Stink at Everything.")
Those same Republicans look at the latest Public Policy Polling numbers showing Democratic U.S. Rep. Mike Michaud ahead of both you and independent Eliot Cutler and now wonder if a Republican gubernatorial primary might not be such a crazy idea, after all. ("Paging state Sen. Roger Katz ... your place on the ballot is waiting.")
What's that, Governor? You're going to blow up Public Policy Polling as soon as you've leveled the Press Herald?
Bombs away, Big Guy. But it won't change the fact that 60 percent of the respondents, including 30 percent of Republicans, now believe you cause Maine "national embarrassment." I'll bet you a lobster that number rises to 80 percent by next fall.
Say what? You gave all your lobster away last week to the 49 other governors around the country? I heard about that too -- and how New Hampshire Gov. Maggie Hassan promptly forwarded hers to the hungry masses at a soup kitchen in Concord.
(Look at the bright side, sir. At least you can claim you now have irrefutable proof that Maine's tax dollars are being used to provide free lobster to welfare recipients. Your base will eat it up!)
Speaking of seafood, let me close with a little snapshot from my trip to South Korea.
One evening, I had the opportunity to visit a place where you pick out an assortment of live fish still swimming in tanks just a few feet from where the fishing boats dock. Then you go upstairs and, within minutes, they serve you your selections raw on a platter.
All I can say is thank God for that hot wasabi paste.
A short time later, I came across another old Korean proverb -- and here's where I thought of you. It goes: "A fish wouldn't get into trouble if it kept its mouth shut."
I know, Governor, you can no sooner keep your mouth shut than persuade all those restive Republicans to put away their daggers and keep defending you from your own endlessly moving lips.
So go ahead, Big Guy, keep yapping.
The closer we get to November of 2014, the more you're starting to look like sushi.
