Mel Gibson is hoping to put his DUI arrest in July of 2006 behind him.
According to a Superior Court Minute Order obtained by Access Hollywood, on September 21, 2009, Gibson's attorney filed a Motion to Dismiss his no contest plea to driving under the influence, stemming from his very public arrest on July 28, 2006.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Mel Gibson
Gibson's attorney cited penal code 1203.4 in the dismissal motion, a code which allows a defendant who has fulfilled the conditions of their probation to change their plea to not guilty allowing the judge, if he or she chooses, to "dismiss the accusations or information against the defendant," the code reads.
Gibson originally pleaded no contest to a driving under the influence charge as part of a plea deal. He was sentenced to three years of probation, fined more than $1,300 and was ordered to attended more than 11 months of Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. He also had to enroll in an alcohol abuse program for three months.

A hearing on the dismissal motion has been set October 6 in a Malibu courthouse.
Gibson's 2006 arrest made headlines not just for his DUI charge but because of an anti-Semitic rant Gibson engaged in, something he later apologized for.

Protecting your pet from 'pet flippers'
Pet flipping sweeps the nation
OCALA, Fla. – It can happen in an instant. One second your loving pet is right there with you, and the next-- gone, possibly forever.
The SPCA of Central Florida said one in three pets go missing at some point in their lives. But in some cases, they may not be missing-- they may have been stolen, and resold to the highest bidder.
It's called pet flipping, a problem that's sweeping the nation. It's actually risen nearly 30 percent in the past year, according to the American Kennel Club. The worst part is, it's almost impossible to tell if it's actually happened to your pet.
Take Misty Allen, for example. Her 8-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, Fergie, was stolen outside her home in Ocala about a year ago.
"It's like the perfect storm, it's like everything that could have gone wrong at that particular moment, did," said Allen.
Fergie is an unusually and particularly small teacup Yorkie, at only about three pounds. She said Fergie got under the gate while Allen's elderly aunt was watching the dogs one day, and made it all the way to the road. By the time her aunt got to the front of the house, Fergie was gone.
Later, after posting flyers in her neighborhood, Allen got a call from two men who said they saw Fergie, and that she had been taken by a large man in a pickup truck. They said they had actually stopped their car and picked Fergie up, but before they could figure out who she belonged to, the man stopped his truck, demanded the dog, and drove away with a woman and kids in his car.
So Allen said she did what any responsible pet owner would do.
"My microchip has got my current address, my phone number and she was reported stolen," she said. "And in my search, I immediately called every vet I could find in Ccala, and sent flyers. I also called every groomer I could find and sent them flyers and told them to be on the lookout."
Despite those efforts, and missing flyers posted on Craigslist and Facebook, no luck.
Allen said not knowing what happened to Fergie is the worst part of all.
"She could be being mistreated, who knows and that's very upsetting to me more than anything," she said. "I would just like to know how she is."
But the reality is, with a such a valuable breed, she may never know.
The top 5 stolen breeds are French Bulldogs, Labrador Retrievers, Pomeranians, Chihuahuas, with Yorkies topping the list. The AKC also lists Pit Bulls as one of the most stolen breeds.
Still, law enforcement agencies all across Central Florida told Local 6 pet flipping is very difficult to track. In fact, Local 6 was only able to find three other cases this year that were properly documented with police.
In some cases, the animals may have legitimately gone missing, been found, and instead of taking the steps to return the animal to the proper owner, the finder may just sell the animal.
It's also a potential danger if you're giving away your pet for free. Viewers told Local 6 they have either given away their pet, or asked someone to hold their pet for them, only to turn around and find the animal listed for sale on Craigslist or other classified ad websites. They said in some cases, they were contacted by a woman who said she had children and wanted a family pet, only to find it was all a scam.
But unless you save the website ad or know who has possession of the pet and have proof the animal is really yours, it's difficult to prove a crime has happened.
Another thing to keep in mind, they're not just being taken for cash. SPCA officials said they could be potential bait dogs for dog fight rings.
"In order for a dog to fight, they have to be taught to fight and what happens is, this is where people need to be careful if they're giving away pets in the newspaper free or you're giving your dog free," said Kerri Burns, Executive Director of the SPCA of Central Florida. "Those in the dog fight rings will use bait dogs and cats to taunt and tease a fight dog and usually a bait dog does not make it out alive. Bait dogs usually have their muzzles taped, their teeth are just filed down completely, they have no way to fight back. So it could be your loving pet, your poodle, and someone steals it, and you may never get it back if it becomes a bait dog."
So how can you protect your loving furry friend?
But Dr. Heather Scheuerman, also with the SPCA, said the most important thing you can do to protect your pet is to make sure they're microchipped-- and keep your contact information current.
"Studies show that one in three pets will go missing in their lifetime," said Dr. Scheuerman. "Without a microchip, 90% of them will never find their home. With a microchip, that number is increased to 73% that will find their owner again."
It's a quick, easy, and relatively painless and cheap procedure, usually ranging from between $35 to $60.
"The microchip itself is inserted with a small needle," said Dr. Scheuerman. "It goes right between the shoulder blades, because it's an area with relatively few nerves."
Dr. Scheuerman said that theives can't just change the microchip information to match their own, because a third-party company keeps it-- which requires personal information in order to access the account.
Allen said that may be so, but said all pet owners need to be vigilant about asking their vets to routinely scan new animals they see at their practices. She said in her search for Fergie, she found most vets don't even check microchips, unless they're specifically asked to.
"If you're gonna put chips in dogs, you need to be committed to checking them, otherwise they're worthless," said Allen. "Especially in these little dogs, because they don't end up at the pound, not very often. They're stolen or lost and somebody finds them and they're resold."
But she hasn't given up hope that one day she will be reunited with Fergie.
"I feel like if I forget it, I'm just giving up on her," she said. "You hear about dogs being found years later, so I just keep hoping maybe one day, somebody will find her."

CINCINNATI--Chronic illness can lead to poorer quality of life--particularly for adolescents. New research shows that spirituality may help teens cope with their conditions.
Two recent studies, led by Michael Yi, MD, associate professor of medicine, and Sian Cotton, PhD, research assistant professor in the department of family medicine, investigated how adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)--a condition characterized by chronic inflammation in the intestines--may use spirituality to cope with their illness.
These results were published in online versions of the Journal of Pediatrics and the Journal of Adolescent Health.
Spirituality is defined as one's sense of meaning or purpose in life or one's sense of connectedness to the sacred or divine.
IBD is a term that refers mainly to ulcerative colitis--which causes ulcers in the colon--and Crohn's disease--occurring when the immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract.
Patients with IBD experience recurrent abdominal pain, bloody stools and diarrhea, among other serious problems, and have an increased risk for colon cancer. Adolescents with IBD are also at risk for numerous psychosocial difficulties, including increased mental health problems and social stigma.
The exact cause of IBD is not known, and there is no cure.
Teams led by Yi and Cotton collected data on socio-demographics, functional health status and psychosocial characteristics as well as spiritual well-being for 67 patients with IBD and 88 healthy adolescents between the ages of 11 and 19.
"Personal characteristics like self esteem, family functioning and social characteristics, like level of peer support, were similar between adolescents with IBD when compared to healthy peers, indicating that adolescents with IBD appear resilient," Yi says. "However, health-related quality of life was significantly poorer in general. On average, when compared to their healthy peers, patients with IBD were willing to trade more years of their life expectancy or risk a greater chance of death in order to achieve a better state of health."
He adds that researchers also found that one of the most important predictors of poorer overall quality of life was having a poorer sense of spiritual well-being.
Cotton's analysis of the same 155 adolescents focused on the relationships between levels of spiritual well-being and mental health outcomes in the adolescents with IBD as compared to their healthy peers.
Levels of spiritual well-being were similar between adolescents with IBD and healthy peers. In addition, higher levels of spiritual well-being were associated with fewer depressive symptoms and better emotional well-being.
"However, even though both healthy adolescents and those with IBD had relatively high levels of spiritual well-being, the positive association between spiritual well-being and mental health outcomes was stronger in the adolescents with IBD as compared to their healthy peers," Cotton says, noting that this indicates spiritual well-being may play a different role for teens with a chronic illness in terms of impacting their health or helping them cope.
Yi and Cotton decided to study IBD because it affects males and females at similar rates, has a relapsing and reduction course and peaks onset during late adolescence.
"While adolescents with IBD have specific issues that are unique to that group, we feel that these studies help to create a systematic approach to better understanding spirituality and religious coping in pediatric populations," Cotton says. "We felt it was best to examine these issues first in a homogenous population and then determine whether these findings can be generalized in adolescents with other chronic conditions or how they might be different across different illness groups."
Researchers are conducting ongoing studies of religious/spiritual coping in adolescents with IBD, asthma and sickle cell disease, with plans for future investigations in additional chronically ill pediatric and adult populations.
Additionally, they are collaborating with outside investigators on a study exploring physicians' views on addressing patients' spiritual or religious needs in clinical settings.
"There are few studies looking at religious or spiritual coping in chronic illness, especially in this age group," Yi says. "We hope to further our studies to include other chronic illnesses and determine whether addressing patients' spirituality in clinical settings would have a valuable impact on mental and physical health outcomes in patients with chronic illness."
The study of adolescents with IBD was conducted at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, where both Cotton and Yi have secondary faculty appointments in the pediatrics department, and at University Hospital.
These studies are funded by career development awards by the National Institute for Child Health and Human Development.

1961: Giants Edge Eagles 28-24 in Eastern Conference Showdown
The history of the rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants has involved many significant games, often intensely played, and with some memorable performances. The matchup on December 10, 1961 was one such contest, with plenty of drama combined with big plays – and ultimately coming down to a controversial penalty in the final minutes.
Both teams were tied atop the Eastern Conference with 9-3 records as the Eagles hosted the Giants at Franklin Field. New York had won the first encounter at Yankee Stadium four weeks before, ending a five-game Philadelphia winning streak. The Eagles won back-to-back games against the Giants in 1960 on the way to the league championship, and had since made a remarkable transition at quarterback from the retired Norm Van Brocklin to Sonny Jurgensen (pictured below). The Giants had also made a quarterback change, picking up 35-year-old veteran Y.A. Tittle from the 49ers in a preseason trade, who supplanted Charley Conerly (pictured above), 40 years old and showing signs of wearing down in his 14th season. Both teams had also changed head coaches in the offseason, as Philadelphia's Buck Shaw and New York's Jim Lee Howell both retired; they were replaced by Nick Skorich and Allie Sherman, respectively.
New York drew first blood on the fourth play from scrimmage on a 46-yard bomb from Tittle to split end Del Shofner. The Eagles responded with a 26-yard Bobby Walston field goal after recovering a fumble by Giants FB Alex Webster. Just prior to the end of the first quarter, Philadelphia scored a touchdown out of the stacked deck formation - three receivers lined one behind the other on one side of the field, and flanker Tommy McDonald on the opposite side. Jurgensen hit McDonald cutting across the middle of the field, and the 5'9", 170-pound darter completed the 52-yard play to put the Eagles ahead, 10-7.
The Giants fumbled the ball away twice more during the second quarter, but Philadelphia was unable to capitalize. LB Cliff Livingston intercepted a Jurgensen pass at midfield, and at this point Conerly entered the game in place of Tittle, who was having an uncharacteristically flat performance after the initial TD. It looked as though Conerly would do no better when Eagles FS Don Burroughs intercepted a third down pass, but an offside call on the defense nullified the play, and given a second chance Conerly hit TE Joe Walton for a 35-yard touchdown.
New York missed opportunities to extend their lead due to missed field goal attempts of 23 and 34 yards by placekicker Pat Summerall. The halftime score stood at 14-10 in favor of the Giants.
A fumble by Eagles HB Ted Dean set up the next Giants TD in the third quarter, a 26-yard pass from Conerly to Shofner. The Eagles struck back with a 66-yard bomb from Jurgensen to McDonald that quieted the booing home fans and put the ball at the New York 11 yard line. However, they came up empty and the quarter ended with the Giants ahead, 21-10.
Another penalty damaged the Eagles as a 34-yard pass play from Jurgensen to HB Timmy Brown down to the Giants one yard line was called back for offensive pass interference on McDonald. The teams traded punts, with the Eagles getting the field position advantage, and McDonald made up for the penalty on the previous series by scoring a 30-yard touchdown on a pass from Jurgensen to narrow the Giants margin to 21-17.
The Giants couldn't move on their next possession, and were forced to punt from their 16 yard line. However, Eagles DE Leo Sugar was penalized for making contact with punter Don Chandler in a highly controversial call that changed the momentum of the game. New York made the most of the break, driving down the field to score on Del Shofner's third TD reception of the game on an 11-yard throw from Conerly.
Philadelphia got the ball back with 2:44 to play and down 28-17. Jurgensen connected with split end Pete Retzlaff for a 61-yard TD, but the Eagles were unable to score on their final possession in the last 18 seconds, and the Giants won, 28-24.
For New York, Conerly completed 6 of 13 passes for 153 yards and, most significantly, three touchdowns. TE Walton led the receivers statistically with 5 catches for 100 yards and a score, but Shofner was the star with three TDs while catching 4 passes for 95 yards. FB Webster led in rushing with 86 yards on 22 carries.
In defeat, the Eagles had won the statistical battle, outgaining the Giants with 455 total yards to 371. Jurgensen completed 16 of 31 passes for 367 yards and three touchdowns against two interceptions. McDonald caught 7 passes for a team-record 237 yards and two scores. The Eagles, not a strong running team, ran the ball 23 times for 124 yards to New York's 38 for 143, and no back had more than eight carries; the leading rusher was Timmy Brown with 64 yards on 7 attempts.
The win put the Giants a game ahead in the race for the conference title, and they tied Cleveland in the season finale the next week to finish in first place at 10-3-1. Philadelphia defeated Detroit to end up in second at 10-4. New York lost to Green Bay in the NFL Championship game while the Eagles faced the Lions again in the meaningless Playoff Bowl; they also lost, and it was costly as Jurgensen suffered a severe shoulder separation that required surgery and lingered into the '62 season, and OT J.D. Smith broke his leg.
The game was the last hurrah for Conerly, who retired following the season; while he relieved Tittle in both the season finale and title game, it was far less consequentially. Del Shofner, in his first season with the Giants after being dealt by the Rams, caught 68 passes, a career high, for 1125 yards and 11 touchdowns.
Sonny Jurgensen set a new record for passing yards in a season (3723) while tying the record for touchdown passes (32). Tommy McDonald caught 64 passes for 1144 yards and 13 TDs. Both received All-Pro recognition and were selected to the Pro Bowl.

A Top Editor's Take on the State of Journalism Today-and His Prescient Forecast of Its Future
"This is a personal and insightful book about one of the most important questions of our time: how will journalism make the transition to the digital age? Steve Shepard made that leap bravely when he went from being a great magazine editor to the first dean of the City University of New York journalism school. His tale is filled with great lessons for us all."
-Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of Steve Jobs
"An insightful and convivial account of a bright, bountiful life dedicated to words, information and wonder."
-Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
"This is two compelling books in one: Shepard's story of his life in print journalism, and a clearheaded look at the way journalism is evolving due to electronic media, social networking, and the ability of anyone with a computer and an opinion to make him- or herself heard."
Shepard's book will resonate with many and should be read by anyone interested in the flow of information today and its simpact on society as a whole."
-Library Journal
"The book is in part a memoir, a tale of a life lived at the height of print journalism when print journalism itself was at its height. But it is also an analysis, an examination of the new challenges facing an old industry as it ambles and occasionally sprints its way into the digital age."
-The Washington Post
About the Book:
"My personal passage is, in many ways, a microcosm of the larger struggle within the journalism profession to come to terms with the digital reckoning. Will the new technologies enhance journalism . . . or water it down for audiences with diminished attention spans? What new business models will emerge to sustain quality journalism?"
Stephen B. Shepard has seen it all. Editor-in-chief of BusinessWeek for more than 20 years, Shepard helped transform the magazine into one of the most respected voices of its time. But after his departure, he saw it collapse-another victim of the digital age.
In Deadlines and Disruption, Shepard recounts his five decades in journalism-a time of radical transformations in the way news is developed, delivered, and consumed. Raised in the Bronx, Shepard graduated from City College and Columbia, joined BusinessWeek as a reporter, and rose to the top editorial post. He has closed the circle by returning to the university that spawned him, founding the Graduate School of Journalism at the City University of New York.
In the digital age, anyone can be a journalist. Opinion pieces are replacing original reporting as the coin of the realm. And an entire generation is relying on Facebook friends and Twitter feeds to tell them what to read.
Is this the beginning of an irreversible slide into third-rate journalism? Or the start of a better world of interactive, multimedia journalism? Will the news industry live up to its responsibility to forge a well-informed public?
Shepard tackles all the tough questions facing journalists, the news industry, and, indeed, anyone who understands the importance of a well-informed public in a healthy democracy.
The story of Shepard's career is the story of the news industry-and in Deadlines and Disruption, he provides peerless insight into one of the most critical issues of our time.
Stephen B. Shepard served as senior editor at Newsweek and as editor-in-chief of BusinessWeek from 1984 to 2005. He was president of the American Society of Magazine Editors from 1992 to 1994 and was inducted into its hall of fame in 1999. He is the dean of the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism, which is on the cutting edge of journalism education in the digital age. He and his wife, Lynn Povich, live in New York.

Durango High School in Colorado allows seniors to choose their own yearbook photo. The process usually works smoothly -- until they came across Sydney Spies.
Spies, an 18-year-old senior at the Colorado School, is facing off with school officials and yearbook editors who feel her photo, which has her garbed in a thin, sheer yellow skirt and tight black tube-type top, is inappropriate. They say the picture will "diminish the quality" of the award-winning publication.
The aspiring dancer and model however believes the photo "captures her true personality." She even protested outside the school with her mother and friend on Wednesday. She believes her first amendment rights are being violated.
School officials have a different story. They say they quickly told Spies to pick a different shot after they received it. Yearbook editors also voted to not allow the picture's publication, contrary to a statement made by Spies, who said the student editors voted four-to-one in favor of it.
According to school policy, students must wear tops that fully cover the chest, back and abdomen in all yearbook photos. In her photo, both Spies' shoulders and abs are clearly visible.

NEW BEDFORD — New England's fisheries managers agreed Wednesday that what they view as flawed science shouldn't be the basis of a drastic rollback in the amount of yellowtail flounder the fleet may catch next year.
NEW BEDFORD — New England's fisheries managers agreed Wednesday that what they view as flawed science shouldn't be the basis of a drastic rollback in the amount of yellowtail flounder the fleet may catch next year.
The New England Fisheries Management Council, meeting in Newport, R.I., took two votes affirming the view that the quota should be 1,150 metric tons in 2013, rather than the 215 metric tons that a joint U.S.-Canada committee recommended.
Since yellowtail is regularly taken as bycatch in both the groundfish and scallop fishery, cutting the quota sharply would force fishing to end prematurely.
In the words of Mayor Jon Mitchell, who wrote to the council of his concerns, this would "inflict broad, irreparable damage on the fishing industry based on what one could hardly claim is the best available science."
He implored the council to act to avoid "ruinous consequences" of excessive cutbacks and to work with Canada to obtain assessments that are scientifically valid.
Now the issue moves to the Transboundary Management Guidance Committee, which oversees the fishery at the border and which had set the low quota based on its own science. It will be asked to set aside what the council views as flawed science and instead accept the recommendations of the council's Scientific and Statistical Committee. That would be to leave the quotas where they are this year, along with ending the targeted fishing of yellowtail, leaving only bycatch.
John Haran, who manages Sector XIII, a group of groundfish boats with members from New Bedford to Greenport, N.Y., was at Wednesday's meeting and said he could not say what the effects of the council's votes would be on local fishermen.
"We really won't know the quotas until January," he said, before adding that new councilor Laura Ramsden Foley, who voted in support of the higher quotas, was "a breath of fresh air."
There is no timetable for meeting with the Transboundary Management Guidance Committee. But council spokeswoman Pat Fiorelli told The Standard-Times that after Wednesday's votes, it will almost certainly happen soon.

QA1 Shocks and Struts - Shocked And Awed
QA1 Rolls Out A New Series Of Street And Track Shocks To Bolster Up Its Already Impressive Product Line.
Trade show season in the automotive aftermarket always packs a few pleasant surprises. Just when you think things can't get any better, savvy manufacturers figure out a way to up the technological and performance ante. We were reminded of this once again at last winter's Performance Racing Industry show, while spending a few minutes chatting with engineers in the QA1 booth. The company's comprehensive catalog of top-notch adjustable shocks and coilover kits have made them a favorite with hot rodders, but it's raising the bar even higher. In addition to its wildly popular single- and double-adjustable dampeners, QA1 is rolling out a line of budget-priced, non-adjustable performance shocks as well as new adjustable struts.
The new QA1 non-adjustable Stocker Stars are premium small-body shocks that retail for about $90, and bolt right up to the factory mounting points. They feature the same twin-tube design and durable machined aluminum bodies as QA1's premium shocks, but at an extremely affordable price. "Our new non-adjustable shocks are perfect for people who want an aluminum high-performance replacement shock for $90, but are probably more interested in cruising than going to the road course," says Corey Flynn of QA1. Unlike most replacement shocks, the new Stocker Star NA shocks can be serviced, revalved, and rebuilt. These obviously aren't your typical throwaway shocks. They look great, and are the last set of shocks you'll ever have to buy.
For street/strip enthusiasts, QA1's new Gen 3 Camaro and '79-present Mustang struts should prove equally exciting. With an all-aluminum design, deflective-disc valving, and the capability to be rebuilt and revalved, these struts offer the same capabilities as QA1's most popular shocks. Flynn says, "These struts are a great addition to the marketplace. They're available in single-, double-, and R-series valving, so no matter what style of driving you're going to do, we have you covered."
While QA1's newly expanded lineup offers more choices than ever, selecting the right set for your car doesn't have to be confusing. "The foundation of QA1's product line is our Proma Star and Stocker Star shocks, and they're both available as single- and double-adjustable units. The main difference between them is that the Stocker Stars bolt to the factory shock mounts, while the Proma Stars are for coilover conversions," Flynn says. "Furthermore, our Stocker Star, Stocker Star NA, Proma Star, and R-series shocks are available for most muscle car and domestic late-model applications."
By springtime, QA1 will also have a cool wireless remote adjust kit for all QA1 adjustable shocks. Stay tuned!

Politifact Texas, a joint venture between the Austin American-Statesman and Politifact.com, has taken on the task of truth-testing statements by Texas politicians and political candidates. We will occasionally provide links to their analyses of what is fact and what is fiction here on the Texas Politics blog.
In this post, Politifact Texas researches the truth behind Gov. Rick Perry's statement that "the Trans-Texas Corridor is dead."
Eight years after Gov. Rick Perry proudly introduced his plan for the future of transportation in Texas, his campaign declared that vision null and void in a blog post during the Republican gubernatorial debate Thursday night.
"The Trans-Texas Corridor is dead," said the post, which was entered at 7:26 p.m.
The TTC — unveiled in January 2002 as an approximately $200 billion plan for 4,000 miles of toll roads, rail lines and utility lines criss-crossing Texas in bundles — has become an issue in the GOP primary contest between Perry, U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison and Debra Medina, a businesswoman from Wharton. Hutchison has released online ads alleging that the controversial initiative, which drew the wrath of Perry opponents and some allies, is alive and well. One of the most vocal critics of the corridor idea was the Texas Farm Bureau, because it would have required the state to acquire a considerable amount of farmland.
We decided to investigate the health of the Trans-Texas Corridor.
The Texas Department of Transportation pronounced the TTC dead, in concept and in name, in January 2009. But some remnants of the project are still on the books."

Chasing Miracles - The Crowley Family Journey of Strength Hope and Joy
John Crowley, Aileen Crowley
Publisher: Newmarket Press
When John and Aileen Crowley learned that their two youngest children had a rare and little understood genetic disorder, they didn't hope for miracles: they made them happen. In 1998, 15-month-old Megan and 4-month-old Patrick were diagnosed with Pompe disease, a rare and fatal neuromuscular disorder that affects only a few thousand children worldwide, usually leaving them with little to no muscle function, enlarged hearts, and severe difficulty breathing. The Crowleys were told to take their children home and "enjoy their short time together...there is nothing that can be done." Raised in a blue-collar neighborhood in northern New Jersey, John Crowley, a recent Harvard MBA graduate working at Bristol-Myers Squibb, was just beginning to taste success in corporate America. But now he was absolutely determined to find a treatment to save his children's lives. Frustrated with the pace of Pompe research, Crowley walked away from the corporate world at the age of 31 to help co-found a start-up biotech company, focused exclusively on producing a lifesaving medicine. In Chasing Miracles, John Crowley writes from his heart about how he and his wife set out to do "whatever it takes" against phenomenal odds to help Megan and Patrick first to survive, and then to thrive—and to keep their family, including oldest son John Jr., together and their marriage strong. He tells about learning to ask for help, about not losing faith, about coping with adversity, about the generosity and kindness of others, and, most importantly, about what it means to never, never quit. As Aileen Crowley writes in her foreword, "This book is our family's attempt to share much of what we have learned, especially from our children, who have taught us more about life and love than we have ever taught them."

Gov. Schwarzenegger often breaks out the schnapps to toast a job well done. But it's not time to do this with the budget.
The news late Thursday that the governor and legislative leaders had found a "framework" for a deal -- what that means was not explained -- touched off bits of optimism that the record-long delay in passing a budget for the new fiscal year might soon be over. Aides expressed hope that an agreement could be reached by Monday.
Don't hold your breath. The rule of thumb is that when somebody tells you a budget agreement is more than three days away, there's no real budget agreement. Bet heavily on further delay. I wouldn't be surprised if you see headlines by Saturday that budget talks have broken down again.
U.S. & World
Here's my guide, from 2009, to the special language known as "budget deal optimism" language.

Modern Family
Modern Family (2009–2020) is an American sitcom created by Christopher Lloyd that follows three related, fictional families: a traditional family led by Phil and Claire Dunphy; Gloria and Jay Pritchett, a May-December couple; and Mitchell and Cam, a gay couple. The show is shot in a mockumentary.
Season 1Edit
Pilot [1.01]Edit
- Phil: I'm the cool dad. That's my thing. I'm hip. I surf the Web. I text. LOL: laugh out loud. OMG. WTF: Why the face? Um you know, I know all the dances to High School Musical so...xxxxx cccccc
- Claire: What did I tell you would happen if you got him a gun? Deal with this.
- Phil: Buddy, uncool.
- Claire: That's it? No. The agreement was that if he shoots someone, you shoot him.
- Phil: We were serious about that?
- Claire: Yes, we were, and now you have to follow through.
- Luke: I'm so sorry!
- Claire: Liar. Go.
- Phil: He's got a birthday party.
- Alex: What's more important here, Dad?
- Claire: You can shoot him afterwards. He'll be home at 2:00.
- Phil: I can't shoot him at 2:00. I'm showing a house at 2:00.
- Alex: What about 3:00?
- Claire: No, he's got a soccer game at 3:00, and then-- Oh, we got to leave for that dinner thing at 5:00. 4:15. We could shoot him at 4:15.
- Phil: Yeah, I guess that works for me. [Claire writes "Shoot Luke" on schedule. Luke groans.] Sorry, dude. It's on the calendar.
- Luke: Oh, come on!
The Bicycle Thief [1.02]Edit
- Mitchell: [To Cameron] Wow, paisley and pink? Was there something wrong with the fishnet tank top?
- Jay: Manny thinks his dad is like Superman. The truth? He's a total flake. In fact, the only way he's like Superman... is that they both landed in this country illegally.
Come Fly With Me [1.03]Edit
- Phil: [To Dylan] Hey, come in. You're just in time to catch the end of the game. Come on, I'll catch you up. Okay, so that guy is the tying run - interesting story about him: he's been stuck on second base forever, and I'm pretty sure he's gonna try and steal third, which is just a terrible, terrible idea - how are you and Haley doing?"
- Gloria: I always wanted a daughter: to dress her up in pretty dresses, do her hair, her nails, her makeup. No one knows this, but for the first year of his life, I made up Manny like a girl and told everyone that he was my daughter [laughing]. But just for a few times, I didn't want to mess with his head. When he found the pictures, I told him that it was his twin sister who died. [cut to Jay giving her a horrified look]
The Incident [1.04]Edit
- Cameron: Mitchell's mother has a problem with me. Last Christmas, for example, she gave me a piece of exercise equipment and a lettuce dryer. So to recap, I gave her a gorgeous pair of diamond earrings, and she gave me a hint.
- Phil: [To Haley] Boy, things with your mom got pretty intense down there, all like east coast - west coast, you feel me? [Cut to Phil by himself talking to the camera] Act like a parent, talk like a peer. I call it "peerenting". I learned it from my own dad who used to walk into my room and say, "What's up sweat-hog?" [Cut back to Phil and Haley] Honey, I would love to let you go to the concert. Are you kidding me, I think concerts are rad? Hello, I was a hall-raiser!
- Haley: A what?
- Phil: I followed Hall & Oates around the country one summer. "Rich Girl" just spoke to me; I was dating this girl - not dating, I guess I was following her too, kind of.
Coal Digger [1.05]Edit
- Claire: [About Manny] Our son is not weird. What's weird is that her kid wears aftershave and dresses like a count.
- Jay: No, see this is exactly why we sweep things under the rug. So, people don't get hurt.
- Phil: Well, yeah, until you sweep too much under the rug. Then you have a lumpy rug... creates a tripping hazard... and open yourself up to lawsuits. Boy, you can go a really long time without blinking.
Run for Your Wife [1.06]Edit
- Manny: [after being pull out of class] Is something wrong? Who's died?
- Gloria: No one, Manny.
- Jay: Why would you even think that?
- Gloria: In Colombia, Manny went to Pablo Escobar Elementary School. If you were pulled out of class, it was definitely to identify a body.
- Mitchell: [To the Emergency Assistance] Help! We locked our baby in the car and people are judging us!
En Garde [1.07]Edit
- Cameron: Any monkey can shoot a home movie. I pride myself on shooting home films.
- Mitchell: Yeah, but Cameron, you always just take things a little too far.
- Cameron: No, I don't.
- Mitchell: Okay, your nephew's first birthday.
- Cameron: That's not fair.
- Mitchell: You brought a wind machine.
- Cameron: To be fair, my vision was--
- Mitchell: Cameron, you brought a wind machine.
- Cameron: Who puts wheels on cribs?
- Cameron: So there's no part of you that wants to clear the air with your sister?
- Mitchell: No.
- Cameron: Okay, fine. That's your family's way, I'll respect that. But you should know it's hard on the people who love you. We feel the tension, we hear the words that cut like knives.
- Claire: Hey guys! I brought orange slices.
- Cameron: Okay. You know what, I can't bear this. Claire, Mitchell still resents you for quitting the figure skating team when you were kids. [to Alex and Haley] Ladies, come inside with me please. [to Claire and Mitchell] Work it out. Come on.
- [Cameron and the girls leave the scene]
- Mitchell: Thanks, Cam.
- Claire: Is he serious? Is that what your little jab was about this morning?
- Mitchell: Okay ... no ... yes. Okay, yes. I guess I'm still a little angry, but you know--you stole my moment, Claire.
- Claire: Yeah, 21 years ago...
- Mitchell: Okay, but it doesn't matter to you because you had your own moments. You had cheerleading and high school plays, making out with the quarterback, and...
- Claire: Oh come on, you made out with him, too.
- Mitchell: Yeah, but we had to keep it a secret.
Great Expectations [1.08]Edit
- Claire: You're impossible to buy for! You never want anything.
- Phil: [Confessional] Um, things I want: robot dog, night vision goggles, bug vacuum, GPS watch, speakers that look like rocks... I love my wife, but she sucks at giving gifts. I'm sorry for the pay-channel language, but- oh! Yogurt maker! I can't not think of things I want.
- Phil: [upon receiving Claire's gift] I am so excited. [Opens envelope] Coupons for...five free hugs.
- Claire: You don't like it?
- Phil: Are you kidding me? I love it. It's so creative--coupons for hugs, which are usually free, but this makes it official, which is so great.
Fizbo [1.09]Edit
- Manny: I've tried everything to get her attention. Opening doors, having a milk sent over in the cafeteria. Nothing has worked.
- Jay: Here's the deal. Girls don't go for all that romantic stuff. They go for power and success, and since you don't have either one of those things... you're gonna be the funny guy.
- Cameron: Hey, Phil... are you getting a Clown for today?
- Phil: Er no, Luke er... Luke's not much of a Clown-fan.
- Cameron: Really?
- Phil: Yeah, never really liked them.
- Cameron: Has he ever seen a good one?
- Phil: Has anyone?!
- Phil: I am brave. Roller coasters? Love 'em. Scary movies? I've seen Ghostbusters like, 7 times. I regularly drive through neighborhoods that have only recently been gentrified. So yeah, I'm pretty much not afraid of anything... except for clowns. Never shared that with the family so, shh-- I do have an image to maintain. I am not really sure where the fear comes from, my mother says it's because when I was a kid I found a dead clown in the woods, but who knows?
Undeck the Halls [1.10]Edit
- Claire: Phil has a habit of making big pronouncements to the kids.
- Phil: One time I told Luke that if he didn't put his dirty dishes in the dishwasher, we would put them in his bed.
- Claire: Phil's problem is follow-through.
- Phil: We had no more dishes, so we were eating cereal out of a goldfish bowl.
- Gloria: Look, every country has their own traditions. In our culture, for example, the baby Jesus is the one that brings the gifts, not the Santa Claus.
- Jay: But that doesn't make sense. How could a newborn baby carry all those presents? They don't even know where their hands are.
- Manny: At least a baby can fit through a chimney.
- Jay: How would you sit on the baby Jesus' lap? You'd squish it.
Up All Night [1.11]Edit
- Javier: Hey, you're not leaving are you?
- Manny: I've got school.
- Javier: Wha--?! School!
- Gloria: Yeah, school. That's where people go to learn things like not to keep children up all night!
- Javier: [points at Manny while facing Jay] He told her?
- Jay: He's weak.
- Javier: Well, listen. You told me that you used to like riding motorcycles, right? So I brought you one.
- Jay: I know but I kinda got work--
- Javier: Pssh, work!
- Manny: Go, Jay!
- Gloria: Yes, go Jay, and take Manny with you, too!
- Manny: Okay!
- Gloria: NO, MANUEL ALBERTO! IN THE CAR OR I PUT YOU IN THE TRUNK!
Not in My House [1.12]Edit
- Alex: Did you draw on my poster?
- Haley: Yeah, I did. Maybe you'll think about that the next time you read my journal.
- Alex: I didn't read your stupid journal, and I waited in line to get this signed, Haley.
- Haley: Oh, don't be such a baby. It's just some dude with weird hair.
- Alex: That's Maya Angelou, you idiot.
- Haley: Oh, sorry I don't follow the WNBA.
- Claire: Okay, I checked the rest of the computer in the house. I didn't find any more porn.
- Phil: That was hardly porn. It was a topless woman on a tractor. You know what they call that in Europe? A cereal commercial.
Fifteen Percent [1.13]Edit
- Mitchell: [To the florist, after Cam accidentally sets the flowers on fire and then runs screaming into the kitchen] Look at that, two things flaming at once!
- Mitchell: I came out of the closet in my mid-twenties. I had to actually come out to my dad three times before he finally acknowledged it. I'm not sure if maybe he was hoping he heard it wrong like I had said, "Dad, I'm gray"
Moon Landing [1.14]Edit
- Alex: What's Jägermeister?
- Phil: Um, well you know how in a fairy tale there's always a potion that makes the princess fall asleep and then the guys start kissing her? Well, this is like that, except you don't wake up in a castle, you wake up in a frat house with a bad reputation.
- Phil: Do people want their real estate advice from someone who leads or from someone who follows? I'm betting these babies [points to fake mustache] are coming back in a big way. Buy low sell high. People are gonna see this and say... that guy is high.
My Funky Valentine [1.15]Edit
- Jay: [about a comedian] You're going to love him. Trust me, the guy's hilarious.
- Gloria: Okay, tell me one of his jokes.
- Jay: Well, he doesn't do jokes.
- Gloria: Does he have a mallet?
- Jay: No.
- Gloria: So then how does he get hit in the head?
- Jay: He doesn't get hit in the head. He makes observations. He tells the truth in a funny way- come on, he's been on Johnny Carson a hundred times.
- Gloria: Who the hell is Johnny Carson?
- Jay: Oh, for God's sake.
- [Cut to Jay and Gloria talking to the camera]
- Jay: Gloria and I are from different generations, and I won't lie, it isn't always easy. I mean, last week she thought Simon & Garfunkel were my lawyers.
- Gloria: No I didn't.
- Jay: It's a joke.
- Gloria: I don't get it.
- Jay: Maybe that's because there's no mallet.
- Gloria: Yeah, I wish I had a mallet right now.
- Jay: [To Gloria] I have to get old... You don't have to get fat.
- [Claire and Phil are pretending to be strangers at a hotel bar, Claire has just returned from the bathroom wearing her coat]
- Claire: "Clive", I have a little something for you.
- Phil: What is it?
- Claire: [tosses something at Phil] My dress.
- Phil: Oh..
- Claire: My bra.
- Phil: Oh, my...
- Claire: My underwear.
- Phil: My God!
- Claire: Yeah. What do you say we take this upstairs?
- Phil: This is so much better than cheesy garlic bread.
Fears [1.16]Edit
- Mitchell: [To Cameron, who has been over complimenting their pediatrician] Take it down a notch, we're trying to make a friend, not initiate a three-way.
- Gloria: The party is at an amusement park and Manny's afraid of roller coasters.
- Jay: Poor kid.
- Gloria: I don't know where he gets his fear from, cause his father is not afraid of anything no bulls, no heights, no helicopters, no fast cars.
- Jay: But go to dinner with him and wait for the check to come then you'll see fear in his eyes, like the waiter's a ghost.
Truth Be Told [1.17]Edit
- Claire: Women in their thirties on the Internet, they're like ninjas. They get in their little black outfits and try to sneak their way into your marriage.
- Claire: Denise? Do I know Denise?
- Phil: Yeah, you know, my old girlfriend.
- Haley: Oh my god, gross! I can't even picture you with a woman.
- Claire: Thank you.
- Luke: You had a girlfriend before Mom?
- Phil: Try two. Trust me, I had plenty of fun in my time. And then I met your Mom.
- Claire: And thank you.
Starry Night [1.18]Edit
- Phil: Claire, I know you've got your methods, but so do I, and I'm sorry but I'm not a micro-manager. Trust me, I can provide Luke with the tools and guidance he needs without smothering him.
- Claire: You think I smother our children?
- Phil: It's not your fault, honey, mother is part of the word. You ever hear of anyone being sfathered to death?
- Jay: [After Mitchell got sprayed by a skunk] The trouble is your clothes, just take them off. I think there's a blanket in the trunk.
- Mitchell: You're sure, Dad, you're not worried I might stink up the blanket?
- Jay: Don't worry about it. We just use it to cover up the seat from when Manny's all sweaty after his Tango class.
- Manny: If you don't sweat, you're not doing right!
Game Changer [1.19]Edit
- Jay: I'm gonna teach him real chess, not the Colombian version. We actually use the pieces to play the game--not smuggle stuff out of the country.
- Gloria: Eh, I know one Colombian piece you won't be playing with later.
- Gloria: Are you sure there's not an "E-I" in the middle?
- Manny: No its "I-E".
- Gloria: Good, Papi. If I can't fool you, then your teachers can't fool you either.
- Manny: I don't think they're trying to fool me.
Benched [1.20]Edit
- Mitchell: It's Cameron's turn to be out in the world interacting with other grown-ups while I get to stay at home and plot the death of Dora the Explorer. [mumbling] Fill her backpack with bricks, and throw her into Candycane River...
- Phil: What's my coaching philosophy? Give a kid a bird and he becomes one of those weird dudes that walks around with a bird on his shoulder. But give him a pair of wings? He can fly...
... unless he has absolutely no hand-eye co-ordination.
- Alex: [Enters the car] Hey mom-
- Claire: That was 20 minutes.
- Alex: Ergh, mom, I am so, so sorry. I know it's no excuse but I've been feeling a lot of pressure at school, you know, with friends, and I love you so much and I appreciate everything you do for me... I'm still your little girl.
- Claire: Oh honey, why so sweet?
- Alex: Can I get twenty dollars? A bunch of us are going to a movie and we're going to get something to eat afterwards. Jenna's brother is going to take us home.
- Claire: Okay! Of course, sweetie, you know what? Take forty!
- Alex: Oh my gosh!
- Claire: Yeah, that's right!
- Alex: Thanks mom!
- Claire: Go on, have a great time!
- [Alex leaves the car smiling, running to friends]
- Claire: [Yelling to Alex from a distance] Oh, Alex, honey! When you're out shopping, you might want to pick up yourself a training bra! I know you don't need one now but your little boobies are going to come in soon! Mummy loves you, kitten! [Mumbling] Teach her to screw with me.
Travels With Scout [1.21]Edit
- Phil: I always felt bad for people with emotionally distant fathers- It turns out I'm one of them. It's a miracle I didn't end up a stripper.
Airport 2010 [1.22]Edit
- Phil: [After he and Mitchell pop a lock on a window of Mitchell & Cameron's house, of which they are locked out] If you show enough houses you learn all the tricks. Every Realtor is just a ninja in a blazer. The average burglar breaks in and leaves clues everywhere, but not me...I'm completely clueless.
- Cameron: Nobody likes a crying baby on a flight, it's very stressful.
- Mitchell: Yeah, last year I flew back from New York next to a baby who was very upset the entire flight, and it was hell.
- Cameron: I was on the flight with you, I don't recall - oh, I get it, you're talking about me, that's very funny.
- Mitchell: Yeah, we couldn't get tickets to Billy Elliot.
- Cameron: [Getting very emotional] All he wanted to do was dance, and that's my story.
- Mitchell: Five hours of this.
- Cameron: [In a bold, thick Geordie accent] I just wanted to dance at the ballet!
Hawaii [1.23]Edit
- Gloria: I thought one of the advantages of marrying an older guy was that I was going to be able to relax. But all of this swimming and running and rowing, it's just like how some of my relatives got into this country!
- Cameron: It would be like Lewis telling Clark that he didn't like to walk. Sidenote: We're very good friends with a couple named Lewis and Clark. Clark bought a big sparkly belt in New Orleans that he calls his Louisiana Purchase.
Family Portrait [1.24]Edit
- Claire: Quick, quick, tell me something to say that will freak him out.
- Haley: Tell him I'm pregnant.
- Gloria: The question is, why isn't all your underwear good, Jay? You make a nice living!
Season 2Edit
The Old Wagon [2.01]Edit
- Luke: [Holding up a picture he found] Mom, when was this from?
- Claire: Oh, that's the year your dad and I went to the Rose bowl.
- Phil: Incredible game.
- Claire: Yeah.
- Luke: Mom, you look really pretty.
- Claire: Thank you sweetheart.
- Luke: So, what happened?
- Phil: Well, Lukey, everyone gets older. Just 'cause parts of your mom aren't what they used to be, it doesn't mean-
- Luke: I mean, what happened in the game?
- Phil: [After getting a look from Claire] We got our butts kicked by Penn state. The parade was awesome though. Angela Lansbury was the grand marshal. "Good time, she wrote."
- Phil: [confessional] You know what? You can insult a lot of things about me: my hair, my voice, my balance-board exercises, but don't insult my selling. That crosses a line. What line? Oh, you don't see it? That's 'cause I just sold it.
- Cam [confessional on Mitchell's poor and extremely dangerous construction skills] If an accident does happen, I hope he kills me, because I don't think I'd be a very inspiring disabled person.
The Kiss [2.02]Edit
- Claire: Your kids don't need to know who you were before you had them. They need to know who you wish you were, and they need to try to live up to that person. They're gonna fall short, but better they fall short of the fake you than the real you.
- Phil: Which is why we don't hide anything.
- Claire: That is the opposite of what I just said.
- Phil: I was not listening.
- Claire: Where'd you go?
- Alex: Nowhere. Just for a bike ride.
- Haley: Oh, my God. Please tell me this text is wrong. Did you really just go over to that kid's house and try and kiss him in front of a million people?
- Claire: Alex, did you do that?
- Alex: You got a text?
- Haley: Oh, yeah. Everybody knows. Do you know how embarrassing this is for me?!
- Alex: This is all your fault! You're the one who said I had to kiss him or I was a lesbian!
- Claire: Haley, did you say that to her?
- Haley: Oh, don't turn this on me! Look at her shoes!
- Alex: I'm never going back to school now.
- Claire: No, sweetheart. Yes, you are. You are going back to school. But listen to me. Just because a boy sends you flirty texts doesn't mean you -
- Alex: What?! You read my texts?!
- Haley: You read her texts?! That's why you made me talk to her?!
- Alex: You made her talk to me?!
- Claire: I kind of feel like we're spinning out here a little bit. Look, Alex, the important thing here is that you have to be very careful how you behave around boys because it is so easy to get a reputation.
- Alex: Well, I'm sorry I'm not a perfect little good girl like you were!
- Haley: Were you?
- Claire: Oh.
- Haley: Were you?! I highly doubt it!
- Claire: [to Jay] Gloria is right. You being emotionally closed off makes it very difficult for your children to show affection.
- Jay: Really?
- Claire: Yes.
- Jay: You have trouble showing affection in public places?
- Claire: Yes.
- Jay: You?
- Claire: [changes tone] Yes.
- Jay: Was that before or after you were delivered to my door wearing nothing but your underwear and a police blanket?
- [The kids walk in]
- Haley: Oh my god, what?
- Alex: You were arrested?
- Luke: Awesome!
- Claire: Not awesome! And I wasn't arrested. Your grandfather was just telling a joke.
- Jay: It was just a joke. [whispers to Claire] I got a million of 'em.
- Claire: Dad...
Earthquake [2.03]Edit
- Gloria: Jay, what are you wearing? You can't go to church like that.
- Jay: Well, that settles it then. I'm going golfing.
- Gloria: You're gonna miss church again? Last Sunday, you said that you had to go the office. The week before, you had breakfast with a friend.
- Manny And before that, you thought you had a cold that turned out not to be a cold.
- Jay: Because I babied it.
- Gloria: You don't have to convince us. You have to convince Him.
- Jay: Who, God? Me and God are good.
- Gloria: How would you know?
- Jay: Look, you feel God in church, which is great. I feel God out in nature, amongst his works.
- Gloria: Are you gonna go to church next week?
- Jay: We'll see.
- Gloria: I know what "we'll see" means. If you're done with church, just say it.
- Jay: I'm done with church.
- Gloria: Don't say that!
- Manny: Can I go golfing with you?
- Jay: Eh, I'm probably gonna have a Latino kid carry my clubs anyway. Might as well be you.
Strangers on a Treadmill [2.04]Edit
(Phil and Claire walk in the living room to see Alex on the floor).
Unplugged [2.05]Edit
Halloween [2.06]Edit
- [Haley walks in with a revealing nurse costume]
- Claire: What the hell is that?
- Haley: What? You told me to put on an old costume.
- Claire: Not from when you were eight. Are you trying to get candy or Japanese business men? Change it. Go.
- Haley: Okay, Mom, you can't have a problem with this one. I am Mother Teresa.
- [Haley walks in with a short white dress and a nuns cap]
- Claire: Are you kidding me?
- Haley: What? I am her back then when she was hot.
- Claire: I will give you $10 to go up and put more clothes on.
- Alex: I bet that's the first time you heard that.
Chirp [2.07]Edit
- Mitchell: [talking about Lilly being in a commercial] Let's just let Lily have a normal childhood.
- Cameron: I think that gay cruise has sailed.
- Cameron: [speaking into the phone] No, I think that amount'd be fine. I'm just happy you want Lily. I.. I think you're gonna be very happy with her. Okay.
- Mitchell: Cam, did you just sell our baby?
Manny Get Your Gun [2.08]Edit
- [Gloria is looking for her car keys]
- Jay: You know, we wouldn't be having this problem if you hadn't lost the spare set.
- Gloria: I didn't lose them. Somebody came in here and stole them!
- Jay: And left the car.
Mother Tucker [2.09]Edit
Dance Dance Revelation [2.10]Edit
- Mitchell: [reading from the Mommy Forum to figure out what to do about Lily's biting] Well, this one says "when my daughter bit her brother, I put a pinch of pepper in her mouth. She cried and cried but she never bit again. Smiley face."
- Cameron: Oh, well the smiley face makes it okay. I water-boarded our toddler. LOL.
- Jay: [to Manny and Luke] Boys, here's the only thing you need to know about being a man. Never let someone take what is yours.
- Phil: Unless it's just a parking spot and there's plenty of others.
- Jay: That's sweet, Phil. You gotta write that down. You got any lipstick in your purse?
- Phil: "We like to think we are so smart, and we have all the answers. And we want to pass all that on to our children, but if you scratch beneath the surface you don't have to dig very deep to find the kid you were. Which is it's kind of crazy that now we're raising kids of our own. I guess that's the real circle of life."
Slow Down Your Neighbors [2.11]Edit
- Cameron: Every time we meet a new friend, they say one thing you don't like and you just write them off.
- Mitchell: I do not!
- Cameron: Oh, really? What about "But Yet Rachel"?
- Mitchell: [mocking her] "I'd love to go but... yet... I don't feel like parking." It's either "but" or "yet"... not both.
- Cameron: You're lucky no one's kicked your butt yet.
- Gloria: [to Jay and Manny, about learning to ride a bike] You two have fun. I pass. It makes no sense. There's no reason that thing should stay upright.
- Jay: There's no reason you should stay upright, but it just works.
Our Children [2.12]Edit
- Phil: [about Alex putting pressure on herself to do well on her exam] This is my fault. You see me achieve excellence and it puts a lot of pressure on you.
- Claire: What about me?
- Phil: Sorry. Yeah. It puts a lot of pressure on both of you.
- Mitchell: [about his night with Tracy] After that I didn't return any of her phone calls, and I haven't seen her since.
- Cameron: [to Lily, who stole the sunglasses] You naughty little girl!
- Mitchell: Well, you know that's what happens when you give me Kahlua.
Caught in the Act [2.13]Edit
- Claire: We need a game plan, we need to map out exactly what we are going to say, because that is the only way I will be able to hold it together while our babies look at us with judgment and disgust.
- Phil: That's how they always look at us.
- Phil: [on sex] It's like you're shaking hands, but you're not using your hands. At all.
Bixby's Back [2.14]Edit
- Phil: Never did catch what you do.
- Claire: Didn't you?
- Phil: Surprising, I know. I'm usually pretty good at catching things from women in bars.
- Claire: Well Clive, I am just a bored housewife with a dark side and an hour to kill. [pulls out room key]
- Phil: Is that what I think it is?
- Claire: It's not a gift card... or maybe it is.
Princess Party [2.15]Edit
- Claire: So where is she? Where's Mom?
- Jay: Yeah, let's get the weirdness over with.
- Mitchell: [to Claire] I thought she was coming with you.
- Claire: Oh, no, no, I haven't seen Mom since, let's see....oh! she made out with my ex-boyfriend last night!
- Jay: WHAT?!?
- Mitchell: NO, MY GOD!!
- Claire: Yeah, yeah. And then, she took off with him, didn't come back to the house until after I was asleep and then this morning, left a cute little note that said "Having breakfast with Robbie!"
- Jay: What the hell is she doing, he's half her age!
- [Mitchell and Claire give sarcastic looks at him and Gloria]
- Jay: Don't say it.
- Gloria: [slurringly] I think it's sweet. Love is beautiful, it has no age. When it's meant to be, it's meant to be...that is the question.
- Claire: Dad, what's going on over there?
- Jay: She was a little nervous about your mother being here, so she tried her first Xanax and washed it down with a shot of tequila.
- Claire: [Talking about her ex-boyfriend] Every time he opens his mouth, I can feel my daughters losing respect for me.
- Mitchell: You know, I never liked that guy. He used to always put me in a headlock. It is amazing, the freaks we used to date.
- [Cameron leaps out from the dining room, dressed as Fizbo, in a court jester costume]
- Cameron: [in a faux Cockney accent] 'Ello, guv'nor!
- Mitchell: [In disbelief] I gotta jump. [hangs up] Alright... Let's hear it.
- Cameron: Sir Fizbolot, royal court jester, at your service. I understand there's a little princess who's in need of a jolly good time!
- Mitchell: [copying his faux Cockney accent] No!
- Cameron: Your 'ighness said that the clown doesn't fit the princess theme, but methinks that a court jester is right as rain!
- Mitchell: There goes the theory that an English accent makes everyone sound smart.
Regrets Only [2.16]Edit
- [Claire and Phil have had a fight earlier when Claire feels that Phil listens to everyone's opinion but hers]
- Phil: Hey.
- Claire: Hey
- Phil: I wanna show you something.
- Claire: Let me guess. It's a copy of the book that I begged you to read, but you wouldn't until your dental hygienist said it changed her life.
- Phil: [opens photo album in his hands] Remember this? [Claire murmurs assent] It's the first Thanksgiving I spent with your family.
- Claire: God, I hated that ponytail.
- Phil: I know, you said it made me look like a wimpy bouncer so I cut it off. Just like I lost the feathered earring. And the van with the beanbag chairs. And I changed my forestry major.
- Claire: I get it, Phil. I get it. I am the controlling witch that made you give up everything fun in your life....
- Phil: No! No no no no you're the witch who saved me! [Claire looks stunned] Look. Look at this picture. Now look at this guy. [gestures to his face] You can't tell me your opinion doesn't matter. You changed me for the better in a hundred different ways. Yeah, I might miss a book or a, a salad here and there, but...I've got Claire all over me.
- Claire: [smiles] You're about to. [kisses him]
Two Monkeys and a Panda [2.17]Edit
- Cameron: [playing with Lily on his lap as Mitchell comes in] Hey daddy, how was the farmer's market?
- Mitchell: Well, it was great but...guess what the new spinach is?
- Cameron: Umm..radicchio?
- Mitchell: [pulling a bunch out of his basket] Kale!
- Cameron: [gasps] No!
- Mitchell: I know, I was just as blown away as you are.
- Cameron: Well, I guess we're going to have to...[leans close to Lily, claps and speaks in a very happy voice]...adopt, yay, a new attitude towards kale. Maybe we'll even adopt!! [clap clap clap] a new vinaigrette! Adopt! Yaaay!
- Mitchell: K, what's going on here?
- Cameron: I'm taking the negative charge out of the word adopted [to Lily] Yay!
- Mitchell: What did Oprah do now?
- Cameron: Well, she had a girl on who, at sixteen, found out that she was [covers Lily's ears] adopted and felt betrayed and ran away and became a stripper. And not the heart-of-gold kind, the by-the-airport kind.
- Mitchell: [strained grin] Okay.
- Cameron: Alright, go get your gavel, Judge Judy
- Mitchell: No, not at all. I'm adopting [cheers, Cam claps near Lily] a tolerant attitude towards your flights of lunacy.
- Cameron: [to Lily] Adopting! Yay!
Boy's Night [2.18]Edit
Jay: Buddy, don't close yourself off from new things. Have I told you the story about me and crab cakes? Thought I didn't like them, tried them, loved them.
Manny: Wow! Are the movie rights available for that one?
The Musical Man [2.19]Edit
- Cameron: Why do you have to throw a wet blanket on my dreams?
- Mitchell: I do not.
- Cameron: You do it all the time! And you know what I end up with? Wet dreams....I heard it as soon as I said it, just leave it alone.
Someone to Watch Over Lily [2.20]Edit
- Mitchell: We've been dropping by unannounced to quietly assess all the candidates.
- Cameron: Not all the candidates!
- Mitchell: Yes, not all the candidates. We can't just drop by Missourah.
- Cameron: That's Missouri. No one from Missouri says Missourah.
- Mitchell: I'm so sorrah.
- Mitchell: I'm sorry, did we come by at a bad time?
- Claire: Try coming back seven years and five months from now when they're all gone!
- Cameron: I just don't think Jay is the best one to raise Lily.
- Mitchell: You know, Cam, he raised me.
- Cameron: Oh, now you've put me in an awkward position.
- Alex: Where are we?
- Haley: The boys' locker room.
- Alex: It smells like feet.
- Haley: That's not feet.
Mother's Day [2.21]Edit
Good Cop Bad Dog [2.22]Edit
- Jay: Honey, I love you, but you have to learn to say no to people.
- Gloria: All right. Ask me if you can go golfing.
- Jay: Other people.
- Luke: I don't feel well.
- Claire: Did you finish your milkshake?
- Luke: I think that's the problem.
- Guillermo: Last year, 4 billion dollars was spent on dog training.
- Jay: That's not true.
- Guillermo: I know; I was just as surprised as you are.
- Jay: Yeah; you were surprised because it's not true.
- Guillermo: So what is this multi-billion dollar industry missing?
- Jay: Multi-billion dollars.
- Phil: But I was going to take Luke and Manny go-karting for their good report cards.
- Claire: What was good about Luke's report card?
- Phil: ...He didn't lose it.
See You Next Fall [2.23]Edit

Season 3Edit
Dude Ranch [3.01]Edit
- Alex: Okay, Lily, I'm going to push you one more time. Now, don't kick me, okay? Lily! I said don't kick me! Okay?
- Jimmy: You know it's your own fault that's happening. Why don't you trying standing behind her?
- Alex: You are an idiot.
- Jimmy: Oh, really. I ain't the gettin' kicked.
- Alex: Why are you following me?
- Jimmy: why are you fightin' me here, gorgeous? This works.
- Alex: I really, really don't appreciate you calling me 'gorgeous'. I just wanna enjoy time with my family, so if you don't mind...
[he kisses her]
- Jimmy: Not a problem. See you around, sunshine.
- Lily: Hee hee. You kissed the boy.
- Alex: No, the boy kissed me. Okay, Lily? Boy kissed me.
- Alex: We need to talk.
- Jimmy: What?
- Alex: You stole my first kiss.
- Jimmy: What are you talking about?
- Alex: I had it all planned out. It was supposed to be special: someone with a high GPA and a bright future. Not a Mario brother.
- Jimmy: Fine. You know what, I don't even want your kiss. Here you can have it back.
[he kisses her]
- Jimmy: There. Now we're even.
- Alex: Keep it. I don't, I don't want it anymore.
[she kisses him]
- Alex: What am I doing?
- Alex: I looked it up. The distance between our houses is 2,443 miles.
- Jimmy: Yeah, but on some maps, that's like, pfft, this big.
- Alex: God, you're stupid.
[they kiss]
When Good Kids Go Bad [3.02]Edit
Phil on Wire [3.03]Edit
Door to Door [3.04]Edit
- Phil: Okay, huddle up everybody. Your mother's right. She's the quarterback of this family and we need to protect her like Blind Side did.
- Luke: She just said that mom was Blind Side.
- Phil: She's confused. Blind Side was the black kid who played Tight End.
- Alex: Offensive Line.
- Phil: Sorry, African-American kid.
- Manny: Excuse me, would you like some Christmas wrapping paper?
- Jewish: Actually, I'm Jewish.
- Manny: Then you must appreciate a good value.
- Jay: Oy vey.
- Mitchell: When you come back, there will be a great, big mess waiting for you.
- Cameron: And I will give him a great, big hug.
Hit and Run [3.05]Edit
Go Bullfrogs! [3.06]Edit
Treehouse [3.07]Edit
After the Fire [3.08]Edit
- Mitchell: We would have been here sooner, but this one had a wardrobe crisis.
- Cameron: You know, it's a somber occasion, and all my tops are too joyful.
- Mitchell: You do not want our problems.
- Phil: I don't make the best decisions under pressure.
[cut to flashback]
- Claire: Oh, my God! What the hell is that?
- Phil: An alpaca. I bought the last one.
[while getting a massage, Jay accidentally said "I love you" to Phil]
- Phil: I really need to talk to you.
- Jay: You really don't.
- Phil: Jay, please. It's about work. I got a text during your massage. I've been offered a partnership in a new agency.
- Jay: [relieved] Oh. Good for you!
- Phil: Well, I'm not so sure. I mean, there's... there's a big upside, but I have a stable job right now. I have three kids, and at least one of 'em's going to college. Worse case scenario, they all go.
- Haley: What just happened?
- Alex: You have your fans. I have mine. Someday your fans are going to work for my fans.
Punkin Chunkin [3.09]Edit
- Haley: Saying nothing is not lying, okay? It's just letting the truth speak for itself.
- Alex: This is not the time for moral equivocation.
- Haley: Okay, I don't know what that means, and also, don't tell me.
- Alex: You're the one who's going to lose her driving privileges. I don't know why you're so calm.
- Haley: All we have to do is keep it from mom until she goes to the store. Then, when she sees it, she'll assume that it happened there, which it did. So it's not really lying.
- Alex: Listen to you! Are you gonna be a career criminal?
- Haley: [scoffs] Oh, you sound like mom. I don't know what I'm gonna do after high school!
- Phil: Hey friend. You look like you had a rough day at the office.
- Luke: The stress from my job at the Robot Assassin Factory is too much to take. Aw, shoot me an aspirin, pal.
- Phil: Maybe someday. But until then, try this on for size. The real HeadScratcher features 32 patent pending nogginizers that gently massage your scalp. In a soothing purr of motorized delight.
- Luke: Wow. It feels great, and it looks good too. It's a real life saver.
- Phil: You mean, a real Head Scratcher?
- Phil Dunphy, Luke: Hahahahahahhaha.
- Phil: TM.
- Cameron: There are dreamers and there are realists in this world. You'd think the dreamers would find the dreamers and the realists would find the realists, but more often than not the opposite is true. You see, the dreamers need the realists to keep them from soaring too close to the sun. And the realists, well without the dreamers, they might not ever get off the ground.
Express Christmas [3.10]Edit
Lifetime Supply [3.11]Edit
Egg Drop [3.12]Edit
- Mitchell: We're interviewing prospective mothers for adoption.
- Cameron: It's quite an ordeal. You want to look good, make a good first impression. It's kind of like going on a first date.
- Mitchell: Actually, it's the opposite of a first date. You don't want to have sex, but you do want to have a baby.
- Alex: [Claire wants Alex to tell her how she did the egg drop project] I didn't want to do this, but here's what you do: First, get a mirror. Then, you will look at it and you're gonna see a crazy woman. She needs your help.
- Claire: You know, I made the egg that made you that made that project, so in a lot of ways, that project is mine!
[Looks in mirror]
- Claire: You're good.
- Gloria: [Yelling on the phone in Spanish] Yes! Auntie! Yes! You're 73 years old, not 20! Of course, but I'm in the United States so kill yourself! Kill yourself, because I don't care!
- Gloria: Ok, yes! I love you! Muah! Muah! Muah!
[hangs up]
- Manny: I understood "crazy old witch," "go kill yourself," then "I love you."
- Jay: I'll never get this; how you all yell at each other.
- Gloria: That's how you know that your family loves you, when they feel free to scream at you.
Little Bo Bleep [3.13]Edit
Me? Jealous? [3.14]Edit
- Hayley Dunphy: Oh, I'm sorry, were you trying to read?
- Alex Dunphy: You're the one who tries to read.
- Hayley Dunphy: Oh, my gosh! I am not that stupid!
- Alex Dunphy: Seriously, Hayley, you think you are the coolest person ever!
- Hayley Dunphy: Would you please stop just judging me and everything that I do?!
- Alex Dunphy: Look at me! I'm so cool! (The girls kept arguing until Luke stops it.)
- Luke Dunphy: ENOUGH! ENOUGH! I AM SO SICK OF YOU TWO FIGHTING ALL THE TIME! YOU'RE A BAD BIG SISTER, AND YOU'RE A BAD LITTLE SISTER! And you're both bad big sisters to me. Be normaler.

VintageNetwork avait besoin d'un nouveau design de logo et a lancé un concours sur 99designs.
Un gagnant a été sélectionné de 41 designs proposés par 18 designers freelance.
Open Source Music community website in need of a fresh, cool, "indie," logo.
Don't have one yet, if you think of one that's clever, give it a shot
Desired Color Scheme:
Nothing. Must appeal to both indie music producers and record labels. Look professional and "hip" at the same time.
Desired Style:
Abstract. Use your imagination...show me what you've got!
Accepted File Formats:
illustrator (for resizing and vectorizing), photoshop, jpg
Give me your abstracts! But not too abstract. The idea is to create an image that is recognizable - like the cingular logo - but otherwise has nothing to do with the company. I love the idea of abstract logos, typically not containing the name of the website, or something cliche. The name of the website is MusiqOS, there is not design, no color scheme yet -- the color scheme will be based on the winning logo. This is going to attract both indie record labels, indie producers, and corporate record labels. I need the logo to be both cool (i.e. indie) and practical (i.e. corporate) at the same time. I apologize if you think the price tag's too low, I'm a college student looking to develop this...we don't make much money.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 26/2/2013 (2645 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
They left Winnipeg amid a chorus of snickers and jeers.
They sucked. They knew it and the fans knew it. No winnin' for MacKinnon was beginning to gain some steam in the newspapers and radio call-in shows.
Life was hard and most likely about to get harder for the Winnipeg Jets after losing four of five games.
The road, it seemed almost certain knowing this team's history, would now apply the cruelest of February blows and put this shortened season out of its misery before it really even began.
But somewhere along the way from Winnipeg to Buffalo, the Jets figured a few things out.
Ondrej Pavelec pulled his pads together. Evander Kane went from warm to smoking hot. Olli Jokinen's offensive game jumped off a milk carton and on to the scoresheet. Andrew Ladd turned his intensity meter up from 10 to 11.
Five games and four wins later, the Jets are 9-9-1 and on the edge of the playoff picture while playing a brand of hockey they can sustain.
This isn't a hockey high-wire act that need come crashing down. This is a streak based on a solid foundation of team-based hockey. The turnovers have been minimized, the attention to detail and puck management improved.
This is a balanced approach with contributions from all over the lineup.
Hello, Anthony Peluso. First NHL fight on Sunday, first NHL points on Tuesday.
Kane has points in an NHL-leading eight games.
Ladd is emerging as one of the NHL's most underrated players offering consistent scoring while doing all the little things right.
Pavelec is playing B-plus hockey -- doing nightly what he must to give his team a chance to win.
The blue-line, short-handed with Toby Enstrom and Zach Redmond out, has been heroic following the lead of a banged up Dustin Byfuglien. They've simplified their approach and focused on moving the puck quickly while leaving the breathless dashes to others.
All this was preceded by dark days, including four straight home defeats.
The Jets, at 5-8-1 prior to this trip, knew better than anyone else what they needed to accomplish on the road.
"I don't want to say this is the most important trip of the season but if we don't win some games we're going to be in a very big hole," said Pavelec, following his team's 3-2 loss to the Boston Bruins back on Feb. 19.
Head coach Claude Noel had also determined his club was in peril of having its season fade into a long string of meaningless games.
"You have to win two of every three games," said Noel, on the eve of this string of games away from the MTS Centre. "You have to find a way to win on this road trip or it will be a real grind."
Halfway through it, Noel called the turnaround on the road, "unbelievable for us."
The opportunity to fade and have the, "they're still the Atlanta Thrashers," catcalls ring out had become low hanging fruit. Instead they found some spine and shot the doubters a double-barrelled bird.
"Losing four in a row at home -- the level of urgency and desperation had to be high on this trip and it was," said Kane, following a three-point effort in Tuesday's win over the Rangers. "The urgency and desperation must continue."
The Jets have shown themselves what they can accomplish. They have finally figured out, as Noel likes to say, "how to play to win and not just play to play."

Photo Coverage: THE PERFORMERS Opening Night Red Carpet Arrivals!
Produced by Robyn Goodman, Scott M. Delman and Amanda Lipitz, THE PERFORMERS, David West Read's new romantic comedy, opened on Broadway on Wednesday, November 14th - at the Longacre Theatre. BroadwayWorld.com was there to cover all of the excitement of opening night and here are the red carpet arrivals!
THE PERFORMERS stars Cheyenne Jackson, Ari Graynor, Daniel Breaker and Jenni Barber, and also stars Alicia Silverstone and Henry Winkler. The Performers is directed by Evan Cabnet.
THE PERFORMERS is a romantic comedy set on the night of the Adult Film Awards. Lee (Mr. Breaker), a tabloid journalist, has come to Las Vegas to interview his high school friend, Mandrew (MR. Jackson), a hot new adult film star. Lee, who's accompanied by his fiancée, Sara (Ms. Silverstone), first sees Mandrew as an exotic creature; but soon enough begins to question his own, more conservative lifestyle. Meanwhile, Sara is having doubts too, and she enlists Mandrew's wife, Peeps (Ms. Graynor) -- also an adult film star -- to compare notes on intimacy and the fear of commitment. Awards, sequins, and Barry Manilow converge as everyone tries to navigate the ins, outs, ups and downs of relationships. Thank goodness Chuck Wood (Mr. Winkler), the hardest-working man in the business, is on hand to remind everyone that size matters . . . but love matters more.

First KMyMoney Beta Version Available for KDE 4 Platform
The KMyMoney team is pleased to announce the immediate availability of version 3.95. After 8 months of hard work, this release is the first version developed upon the KDE 4 Platform. We are confident that it is stable enough for use by early adopters. We would like to get much needed feedback from the community in order to make the new KMyMoney as rock-solid as previous releases.
For this version, the focus has been on allowing it to run on the latest KDE platform while maintaining feature-parity. Subsequent releases will make better use of the new capabilities provided by this new platform. Also, significant effort has gone into making KMyMoney available on all operating systems supported by the KDE development platform.
One major change which may not be visible to our end users is our move to the KDE Subversion source repository. All of the development effort was done there, and in coordination with the relevant KDE teams. We believe this move has been beneficial for both KMyMoney and the KDE community and will make integration tighter in the future.
As a direct result of this move, KMyMoney will be available in 26 languages, and its documentation will be available in 2 languages in addition to English. Also, a lot of fixes have gone into language support and documentation, to make this the most locale-friendly version of KMyMoney to date.
Going forward, there is still a significant amount of work to do in order to complete the task and leverage all the new features provided by the KDE 4 Platform. With the feedback provided to us on this version and more to follow, we will adjust the pace of development to keep KMyMoney as bug-free as possible and add exciting new features at the same time.
For installation, look at the installation instructions on Techbase.
I'm amazed at how fast this has come together. I was assuming this would be something that would take much longer. Thanks to the hard-working developers!

I'd like to test, but ...
... it crashes on startup:

Could this have something to with QT 4.6?

Thanks for all of your hard
Thanks for all of your hard work on the port. Gentoo recently dropped support for KDE3 and all KDE3 dependent apps (from their normal repos anyway).

build error
make fails at 97%, while "Building CXX object kmymoney/plugins/kbanking/dialogs/CMakeFiles/kmm_kbanking_dialogs.dir/kbpickstartdate.o"
The error seems to be with the kbanking plugin:
In file included from [...]/kmymoney/plugins/kbanking/dialogs/kbpickstartdate.cpp:27:
I have aqbanking 4.1.8-1 installed (using Arch Linux).

After 8 month of hard work a version gets released that crashes on start-up...
You have been warned:
Frankfurt is victoriously defended = about to fall in the hands of the enemy.
Of course the correct path for bug mine dogs is to file bugs at bugs.kde.org

Just so you don't think it's going badly for everyone...
I'm using KDE 4.3.3 / Qt 4.5.3 on Gentoo w/o any banking plugins. Downloaded the tar. Ran the compile commands to do a local install. Added the local library directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and started it up.
I have it pointing to a copy of my normal KMyMoney file, but all seems to be working so far.
Thanks for all of your hard work on the port. Gentoo recently dropped support for KDE3 and all KDE3 dependent apps (from their normal repos anyway). I've been looking forward to this port to KDE4 since this is the only KDE3 app that I still use.

This is good news!
btw, any news about invoice module? I really like to use KMyMoney for small businesses but without invoice module it just make no sense.
Keep up the good work!

The fresh installed KMyMoney 3.95 works perfectly on my openSUSE 11.1 with KDE 4.3.4 and QT 4.5.3; aqbanking works fine, too.

Missing rlink maybe
From what someone else said, you need to manually add the local path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
KDE usually gets around this problem with a bit of script magic. I don't know how this works exactly though - anyone know how KDE manages to do this? It would be good to fix KMyMoney.

I've successfully built it now, and it looks pretty cool...
However, since I haven't used any finance software before, I feel a little lost looking at all the things KMyMoney presents me...
Is there some introduction / beginners-howto / user manual that (at least kind of) applies to this KDE4 version of KMyMoney?

You might want to take a look
You might want to take a look at the manual. The chapter "Making the most out of KMyMoney" is a good starter and can be found online at http://kmymoney2.sourceforge.net/online-manual/makingmostof.html
