What's It Wednesday #19
"What's It Wednesday" linky party!
Don't forget to grab a feature button.
What great antique stoves Paula and I love the story behind them. Thanks so much for hosting!
Oh, I adore those antique stoves. I remember one that my Mil had in her country home and it worked! I love the story about them too. Thank you for sharing. Pretty features, I specially love Rosemary's lovely things. Thank you for hostessing and having me. HAPPY EASTER ladies!
Hey ladies, love the stove stories. I remember one that some good friends had in their family room/basement where we would all huddle up and feel the warmth during those cold Pennsylvania country winters. (I'm from PA, bet you didn't know that!) Anyway, I think wood burning stoves are a wonderful blast from the past. Love the ones you've shared!
A stove in the garden would be heavenly! Maybe someday. :-)
Wonderful old stoves and their stories.
LOVE those vintage stoves! If I had a large Kitchen, I would love to have one in it!!
Yur families old stove is quite an addition to any kitchen.
Paula- I loved this post. I grew up with a big old cast iron stove in our kitchen that my mother used to cook every day meals on. Looking back I don't know how she did it and did all the baking she did with a wood stove. What a fun post here today. xo Diana
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge of antique stoves. I always thought these were such beautiful pieces of art...just as they are. I love the idea of using it in the garden.
Thank you so much for hosting:-)
I had no idea that cast iron stoves came in so many styles and varieties. I love the idea of using one outside in the garden.
Paula the stoves are so interesting!! Also the images from our friends!!
I hope you will Come and enter my amazing Cross Bottle Guy Giveaway!You will love it!

I love the idea of one of those stoves in the garden. One can only hope that happens. Thanks for hosting again this week, Laura
Hi Paula! What precious stoves! I can't decide which one I love the most. A vintage stove tucked into the garden would be perfect. Thanks for a lovely party. Happy Easter!!
Susan and Bentley
What a nostalgic post for me! For 28 years out of the 30 we lived in the mountains at 5,000 feet, we had cast iron stoves and cut our own firewood. They are so very country! Thanks for sharing, hosting and linking to Tuesday Cuppa Tea! Happy Easter!
Hi lovely lady.
The antique stoves are beautiful. Thanks so much for hosting your linky party.
Happy Easter ladies.
What wonderful old wood burning stoves! I remember the one my grandparents had in their cabin, how you had to take the poker and lift the plate up to control the heat. We girls were always warned not to touch it, but I wanted to so bad. (I was so naughty!)
Hi, love all of the vintage stoves. So fun to hear a bit about them. I have an old stove in my garden and it is my favorite piece of yard art. It is so heavy that I almost hated to ask my hubby to bring it up to our new home. He and the boys delivered it for me and I am so happy. I sure would have missed that old thing. Thanks for hosting. Great features also.
Hi Paula & Patty,
those stoves are glorious. They add a warm and comfy feeling to every room. We had similar fireplaces in the house for a long time. Nothing is better than heating with true wood. But its much more comfy with a gas heating. Anyway, the stoves make a great decoration.
Best greetings, Johanna
I love the charm of those antique stoves. They sure do put out the heat, are practical and beautiful too. Thank you for hosting the party.
Lovely old stoves - so much history :) Thanks for hosting!
Easter greetings from Australia♥
Just found your blog! Love your beautiful old vintage photos featured on the sides. I will be back for sure. Thanks for hosting- I'm going to link up! Regards, Andrea
Such a beautiful antique stove! You always have the most amazing treasure to share with us... I love the inspiration! Thanks for the party,Paula. Happy Easter!Hugs,Poppy
Oh how I love this post! I'm not sure if you ever looked at the "tour" of the outside of my home on one of my earlier blogs, but I have my great- grandmother's cast iron coal stove in my garden and it looks beautiful. It has also become home to the most gorgeous birds as it rests near one of 4 lilac trees planted by my great grandmother, 80 plus years ago. I have inherited my grandparent's beautiful Victorian, and the grounds are just beautiful. Over the past few years I've added my special touches to the gardens and this is one of my favorite pieces.
Your posts always take me back to such wonderful memories, Patti. We share so many of the same passions, with such a strong sense of family and just how important it relates to our lives today... I always leave here with such an incredible feeling of joy. Your posts not only inspire, but they are a gentle reminder of what REALLY matters in our life: family.
God Bless and may you and your family have a beautiful Easter. xo
I love the stoves, but they are soooooo heavy!
What an informative article about antique stoves. There are some really nice examples. Thanks for hosting this fun party.
Oh, such memories these stoves bring back into my mind, Paula! Many many many years ago I had a Ben Franklin fireplace in my very first little home I bought. I loved spending cold winter nights in front of it keeping toasty warm with my glass of wine! :)
xoxo laurie
My great grandmother had a big cast iron stove. This post brought back such sweet memories.
Thanks for inviting me over... I'm now off to visit the others!
Wonderful post!
I remember my grandparents' wood cook stove in the kitchen and the wood stove in the front room of their home. That was the only heat in the two story house. I remember many a frosty morning standing beside that stove trying to get warm enough to get ready for school.:-)
Thanks so much for coming by. I've added my link and will link back.
What a lovely stove! Your stories are always amazing! I enjoy reading these! Thanks for hosting another great link party! Your features are very deserving and wonderful!
Thank you for inviting me over!
Have a good week!
Beautiful stoves...I love the story about your family stove...I had a small one I kept in a corner used it as a plant stand...when we moved, I sold it and now have seller's remorse...it was a beauty like the ones you featured..
Thanks for hosting and have a wonderful Easter!
Back home in NM, the smell of piñon wood burning in these old stoves is just phenomenal! The one in my childhood home is still being used. :-)
I just am in awe of all those gorgeous stoves in your family. I love them.
My brother has an old Kukaburra stove he uses all the time. You know the green ones on legs with the warming rack over the top. Looks really good and he says it cooks beautifully. It is gas though. Wood burning ones are so comforting.
What a wonderful idea to put a vintage stove in the garden! How fun.... reading your post and the blogger comments. Funny how we can all relate.
Thank you for inviting me to join the linky party!
Thanks for hosting.
Happy Easter!
I love reading your antique posts! You always feature the most unique and fascinating items and have such great history to go along with them! Thank you for hosting your fun party!
Best Wishes and Blessings,
Hi Gals, there's nothing like a wonderful wood stove, not only for warming a cold backside, but keeping a kettle going for a nice cup of tea. Thanks for hosting, just linked up!
Paula, thank you so much
for your visit to my blog
and for your sweet comments.
I'm joining your party and
wanted you to know how much
I enjoyed your post on the
old wood stoves.. love them!
Happy Spring
What a great story behind the beautiful antique stoves! Great features this week and Thanks for hosting, Gail
always a treat to read your descriptive blog. You have made me appreciate my wood stove more than I do. I do find it hard to decorate around though. I do like your suggestion of putting it in the garden. :) Have a wonderful day xo Lynn
Thank you for inviting me over!
The Sheffield is my favorite! To me it looks just like a lady wearing a corset!
Thanks so much for the invite to join your party! ...and for the kind comments left on my post! I also signed on as your newest follower!
Wonderful stoves in your family's collection! It's always such a treasure when items have a history we are connected to, isn't it! :) And the one in the garden is a super cute idea!
Thanks for the invite and the nice comments! I like the old stoves, we're trying to find a small one to use in a cabin. I found some pieces of an old stove and I plan to use them in my garden, the base as a planter and the door just propped up someplace.
Thank you for featuring my post! You are so kind!!! Loved your stories and pics about wood stoves...we still use one!
We installed a pot belly stove in our first home. The only time I remember lighting it, it filled the entire house with smoke! After that, I used it to showcase my collection of vintage red kitchen ware. Thanks for hosting! Blessings, Tammy
Thank you for hosting and I hope you ladies and your families have a very happy and blessed Easter!
What a wonderful idea to have a cast iron stove in the garden. I was lucky to stay in a cabin once whose only heat came from the cooking stove and breakfast was prepared there the next morning. It was a fun experience! Thanks for hosting today's party.
Happy Easter....I love all the old stoves...I hope you get one some day...when you grow up!!
I love these stoves! My Dad was in the area in KY that lost power during that ice storm a few years ago and for 17 days their stove was awesome! They cooked all their food on it and it kept them warm. The rest of the year they use their heat and air. Thanks for hosting!
The stoves are really neat!
Thanks for hosting,
When i was a child growing up in Tennessee, we had a pot bellied stove to keep us warm. i remember sitting by it on a cold morning before going to school. Thank you for the memory and thanks for hosting today.
Hi Paula... (and Patti!)... loved seeing all of the beautiful vintage stoves... thanks so much for sharing another fabulous collection... Happy Easter to you!... xoxo Julie Marie
Awesome post!! LOVE those wonderful stoves. I've always wanted to have one of those big kitchen stoves...all cast iron, or one of the porcelain ones..maybe in a wonderful vintage color.
These examples are lovely!
thanks so much for joining me for Pearls and Lace Thursday on my blog!
I'm so glad you came by!
Blessings, Doni
These old stoves do tell a story. Our neighbor had one converted to electric and it looked quite charming in her kitchen. Thanks for hosting as always.
Paula, thank you for your very sweet words and inviting me here!! I just linked up! I LOVE these stoves. And actually the fireplace in my keeping room isn't a fireplace, it's a woodstove that looks like a fireplace and we LOVE it! :)
Can't wait to look around some more here! Happy Easter!
I'm leaving a comment, not being shy! I love the old stove with the blue pitcher on it, it just spoke to me.
LOVE your blog.So glad I found you.I am your newest follower.Thank you for visiting white lace cottage.
I WANT that stove.I guess I can dream.
Thank you for hosting! I love old stoves, my aunt has an old fireplace and since I was a child I've wanted one of my own. Maybe someday.
Thank you for inviting me!! I am all linked up and following! What a beautiful blog! Love the vintage pics! I would love it if you would link up to my Blog Hop Social going on now and then again on Thursdays for my Craft & Recipe linky!
Beautiful blog, I love your antique pics:-) I am your newest follower too.
Happy Easter! Hugs, Biljana
HI!! I am happy to join the party again this week, even if I am a little late:) Beautiful features too. We are moving, building a new home and there are not enough hours in the day right now. It is funny you spoke about wood stoves. We have one that we only used for 3 winters and have to get rid of it. I am praying we find someone, if not it will go to an auction. I wish you were nearby and could have it:) Thanks for hosting! XO, Pinky
I love these old stoves!! I had a small miniature one that my mother gave me when she was breaking up house when my parents divorced. It never made it home with me as someone broke into the house and took all the things that were remaining- which happened to be my things as I was out of town. Still on the hunt for another to replace it-
Thanks for reminding me about your lovely party!
bee blessed
These are so neat. I would love to have one or two in my garden. I bet they did keep you nice and warm too! Very interesting!

Happy Easter!
Thanks for stopping by and hosting this party. I love antique stoves..
Hi Paula, my grandmother had one of those four burner wood burning stoves in her kitchen. We used to run from the bedroom (no heat) to the kitchen where it would be warm with that stove burning wood. We loved to watcher her stoke the fire. Brings back "warm" memories :) Linda

Love the stoves! I remember my great-grandmother having one of these in her kitchen. I was 10yrs, there was a blizzard outside in Wisconsin and I was sitting around the kitchen table with my younger sister and cousins drinking hot cocoa while the women were quilting. Haven't thought about that in a long time; thanks for the memory. : ) Thank you for the party invite also; all linked up.
Interesting post about the old stoves! I loved learning more...thanks Paula!

Your tablescape is beautiful sweetie as are all your pictures.
While cleanin' out the old homestead after MIL moved to assisted livin' we found an old cast iron cook stove in excellent condition tucked back under the stairs. I've lived on the Ponderosa 39+ years and never knew it was there.
God bless ya and have a magnificent Easter weekend sweetie!!! :o)
Fabulous post ! Happy Easter ! Gail x
The wood burning stoves remind me of my grandmother who used one for many years. She baked the best pies and cakes and fried the best chicken on it. I'll never know how, since I don't think the heat is easy to regulate on wood burners.
Thanks for the memory.
Happy Easter,
Wishing you a blessed Easter. Thanks for sharing and hosting. Joyous Wishes, Linda
Happy Easter wishes, thank you for the linky too Thank you for joining in the hop and for your bloggy friendship xo

Chapter 6
Repentant persons are baptized and fellowshipped—Church members who repent are forgiven—Meetings are conducted by the power of the Holy Ghost. About A.D. 401–21.
1 And now I speak concerning baptism. Behold, elders, priests, and teachers were baptized; and they were not baptized save they brought forth afruit meet that they were bworthy of it.
2 Neither did they receive any unto baptism save they came forth with a abroken bheart and a contrite spirit, and witnessed unto the church that they truly repented of all their sins.
3 And none were received unto baptism save they atook upon them the name of Christ, having a determination to serve him to the end.
4 And after they had been received unto baptism, and were wrought upon and acleansed by the power of the Holy Ghost, they were numbered among the people of the bchurch of Christ; and their cnames were taken, that they might be remembered and nourished by the good word of God, to keep them in the right way, to keep them continually dwatchful unto prayer, erelying alone upon the merits of Christ, who was the author and the finisher of their faith.
5 And the achurch did meet together boft, to cfast and to pray, and to speak one with another concerning the welfare of their souls.
6 And they did ameet together oft to partake of bread and wine, in bremembrance of the Lord Jesus.
7 And they were strict to observe that there should be ano iniquity among them; and whoso was found to commit iniquity, and bthree witnesses of the church did condemn them before the celders, and if they repented not, and dconfessed not, their names were eblotted out, and they were not fnumbered among the people of Christ.
8 But aas oft as they repented and sought forgiveness, with real bintent, they were cforgiven.
9 And their meetings were aconducted by the church after the manner of the workings of the Spirit, and by the bpower of the Holy Ghost; for as the power of the Holy Ghost led them whether to preach, or to exhort, or to pray, or to supplicate, or to sing, even so it was done.

HHS Rescinds Controversial Medicaid Regulations
The Health and Human Services Department Monday "rescinded three controversial Bush administration regulations governing Medicaid and said it would postpone and possibly change or rescind a fourth," according to CQ Politics.
Democrats had been particularly critical of the regulations, which had upset health care providers, state governments and advocates for the poor, and the decision to rescind them was not unexpected. CQ Politics reports: "Critics charged that the [Bush] administration was trying to shift to the states, from the federal government, the burden for about $19.6 billion in Medicaid spending over five years. Medicaid, a health insurance entitlement program for the poor, is a shared federal-state program, and there is constant tension between the two over costs" (Wayne, 6/29).
Modern Healthcare also reports: "Specifically, the Obama administration will be rescinding all or part of three Medicaid regulations that were previously issued. The rulemakings in total would have eliminated reimbursement for school-based administrative and transportation costs; limited the outpatient hospital and clinic service benefit for Medicaid; and restricted beneficiary access to case management services. The CMS also plans to delay until June 30, 2010, parts of a regulation that clarified limitations on healthcare-related tax programs, to determine whether states need additional clarification or guidance. A moratorium for most of the regulations had been set to expire on July 1, under a provision set by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009" (Lubell, 6/29).

WASHINGTON (AP) - Citing a potential threat to public health, the Food and Drug Administration is taking steps toward phasing out the use of some antibiotics in animals processed for meat.
Many cattle, hog and poultry producers give their animals antibiotics regularly to ensure that they are healthy and to make the animals grow faster. Now, the agency has announced that it will ask pharmaceutical companies to voluntarily stop labeling drugs important for treating human infection as acceptable for that growth promotion in animals.
If the drug companies sign on _ and two major companies have already signaled they will _ using those antibiotics to promote growth in animals would be illegal. Prescriptions would be required to use the drugs for animal illnesses.
The FDA has been debating how to address the issue of antibiotics in meat for several years as antibiotic-resistant diseases have risen and consumers increasingly have clamored for antibiotic-free meat. McDonald's, among other companies, has moved to limit the drugs in their meat, pushing many animal producers to go along. The restaurant chain Chipotle also has tried to use meat raised without antibiotics, but has cited challenges in finding enough of it.
FDA officials said the move is designed to limit antibiotic-resistant diseases in humans as antibiotic resistance has become a growing public health problem. Repeated exposure to antibiotics can lead germs to become resistant to the drug so that it is no longer effective in treating a particular illness.
In September, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released sobering estimates that more than 23,000 people a year are dying from drug-resistant infections.
The biggest risk is from germs spread in hospitals, and it's not clear how much of the problem is related to the use of drugs in meat. Still, the FDA says this is one step toward decreasing resistance.
"We need to be selective about the drugs we use in animals and when we use them," said William Flynn of FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine. "Antimicrobial resistance may not be completely preventable, but we need to do what we can to slow it down."
The new guidance will give the companies three years to comply.
Michael Taylor, FDA's deputy commissioner of foods, said he believes asking industry to make the changes is the fastest way to help phase the drugs out. If the FDA made the process mandatory, he said, the agency would have had to move forward with a complex regulatory process that could take years.
"We have high confidence based on dialogue with industry that this initiative will succeed," Taylor said.
Drug companies Zoetis and Elanco, two of the leading manufacturers of animal antibiotics, have signaled they will comply.
The American Academy of Pediatrics said the move will be particularly helpful for children, who already are limited in the number of antibiotics they can take.
"When one type of antibiotic is found to be resistant to a strain of an infection, some of our sickest young patients are left without life-saving treatment options," said Thomas K. McInerny, the group's president.
Animal agriculture groups will not have much of a choice in the matter if drug companies sign on and make the drugs' use illegal. But many antibiotics will still be available for those producers to use, just not those that the FDA has classified as most important for treating human infections. Some of the antibiotics that could not be used in animals are penicillins and tetracyclines, the FDA said.
Many animal groups signaled support for the FDA guidance after it was announced Wednesday, including the National Pork Producers Council. Still, Dr. Liz Wagstrom of the pork producers' group said the FDA action will mean "real change" in the way antibiotics are used on the farm, as some animals may not grow as quickly and producers may see more disease. She said she does not know how much it will cost the industry.
Some advocates pushing to rid the animal food supply of antibiotics said the FDA did not go far enough. Democratic Rep. Louise Slaughter of New York, a microbiologist, said the FDA should have made the action mandatory. The guidance "falls woefully short of what is needed to address a public health crisis," she said.
Others hailed the agency move as progress.
"We commend FDA for taking the first steps since 1977 to broadly reduce antibiotic overuse in livestock," said Laura Rogers of The Pew Charitable Trusts' human health and industrial farming campaign. "There is more work to do, but this is a promising start, especially after decades of inaction."

Last weekend Debbie Dunn, a U.S. sprinter set to compete in the London Olympics, resigned from the team after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs.
And as the games draw closer, we expect to see more reports of elite athletes who have turned to prohibited substances in their search for stronger, faster, and leaner body.
A positive test for performance-enhancing drugs can ruin athletes' careers. And prolonged use of steroids, for instance, can cause lasting damage. So why do many athletes still take the risk?
The science behind these drugs was the topic of a recent briefing by the Endocrine Society, a professional group for endocrinologists. While these drugs might provide a boost, doctors say the risks outweigh the benefits. And it turns out that elite athletes might not be the ones who have the most to lose.
"The story of [steroid] abuse by athletes is a fascinating story. It's a quest for immortality in some ways," says Dr. Shalender Bhasin, a professor at Boston University School of Medicine.
Anabolic steroids, introduced to the U.S. in the 1950s as Dianabol, are the most common drugs associated with enhancing athletic performance, says Bhasin. Derived from the male sex hormone testosterone, anabolic steroids flood the body with a pumped-up variation on testosterone's natural muscle-building potential.
Big, bulky muscles resulting from steroid use can be an advantage in power sports like weightlifting, but why would baseball players and endurance cyclists be taking these drugs? There's evidence that steroids can allow for more intense workouts, while improving oxygen delivery and decreasing reaction time, says Bhasin.
However, these benefits don't come without a cost. The heart, liver, and other organs are strained as the body processes these drugs, says Bhasin, and mood and behavior disorders cause an increased risk of accessory drug use and suicidal and homicidal tendencies.
And elite athletes, like Olympians and those on professional teams, only make up a small percentage of steroid users, the majority of whom are recreational bodybuilders.
"Elite athletes might use [steroids] for three months a year in the off season, then recreational users use them all the time for 30 years, thinking they are doing the same thing, but it's more dangerous," says Bhasin. For this reason, Bhasin says that anabolic steroid abuse is a public health issue that governments should be more invested in.
Unlike the storied use of steroids in athletics, a synthetic version of Human Growth Hormone (HGH), which is naturally produced in the pituitary gland, is a newer member in the growing market of performance-enhancing drugs. Once only obtained from other primates, new DNA cloning technologies have led to increased availability of synthetic HGH and its use in the athletic community, says Dr. Alan Rogol, an emeritus professor of pediatrics at the University of Virginia.
HGH builds muscle mass, like anabolic steroids, but it also differs. "It's ergogenic, which means it is like the energy built up in a spring," says Rogol. "It's also lipolytic, so it burns fat and makes you look ripped,"
But Rogol says that these hormone-induced bigger muscles are weaker, and might not lead to superior athletic performance. "Elderly men have been given this material and they can't usually lift much more weight [than before]," he says. And side effects for the expensive hormone range from heart failure and muscle disease to diabetes and bone problems.
Erythropoietin (EPO), a performance-enhancing drug made infamous by Tour de France cyclists, uses the body's natural system to boost red blood cell production. An increased number of oxygen-carrying red blood cells allows the doping athlete to raise his or her workout intensity and endurance. However, an athlete with too many red blood cells also has an increased risk of blood clots and stroke.
Though screening techniques for these and other performance-enhancing drugs have improved, many doping athletes will probably pass through the 2012 Olympics without being caught.
Rogol says that tests can only look for certain known chemicals, and many times can only test for drug use within the past 24 to 48 hours. Also, only 5,000 of the 10,490 athletes at the games will even be screened for performance-enhancing drug use.
So enjoy watching the Olympics this summer, but it's OK to view the amazing feats of athleticism with some healthy skepticism.

Musical instruments, original sheet music, and portraits of musicians preserved in the Smithsonian remind us that American music flourishes within a wide variety of traditions drawn from our multicultural heritage.
The patriotic marches of John Philip Sousa, the emotion of the blues, the seductive rhythms of jazz, the expressive joys and sorrows of country music, the hard driving power of rock 'n' roll, and the propulsive beats and poetry of hip hop all serve to unite us. Despite its stylistic diversity, music is unified in its ability to communicate across generations, races, and languages, serving to break down cultural barriers. From our country's urban centers to rural landscapes, music of all types enriches our lives.

Well, whatever your reason, I'm here to help you find something else to watch during that 9pm time slot. Clearly competing networks are pulling out all the stops to compete with this confessional juggernaut, because there's a lot of great stuff on tonight. Here are my top recommendations, which I found by consulting TV Guide, which incredibly continues to exist in the year 2013.
Here's how TV Guide describes it:
Who knew marching bands could be so sexy? This handsomely mounted production, set in the flamboyant, highly competitive world of show-style university marching bands (think of it as BRING IT ON's even funkier brother), may be a standard coming-of-age drama at heart. But the fantastically edited scenes of battling bands in action are guaranteed to set your heart racing. Devon Miles (Nick Cannon), an extraordinarily talented young drummer from New York City's Harlem, has a way with the sticks that's won him a scholarship to Atlanta A&T, a large Southern university with a predominantly black student body and a first-rate marching band. First-rate, but not first-place; t...
Notice the description just sort of trails off into ellipsis, which I assume represents the drool that will trickle out of your mouth as you fall asleep halfway through. Still, you'd have to be fucking idiot not to watch "Drumline" tonight instead of the Oprah interview--or would you? Because if you like animals and Maine, you're not going to want to miss "North Woods Law" on Animal Planet:
Enhanced episodes of a series following Maine game wardens as they patrol the Pine Tree State during hunting season.
Tonight's episode is a NEW one called "Maine Freeze," in which "a nighttime snowmobile accident requires immediate attention; and a warden is on the lookout for coyote poachers."
Was a coyote actually joyriding in a snowmobile, and if so how wasted was he? You'll have to tune in to find out.
And while this whole Armstrong thing is certainly a soap opera, true aficionados of the genre prefer the classics, and tonight there's a NEW episode of "General Hospital" on the Soap channel:
What will happen when Britt presses Patrick a little too hard about the status of their relationship? Todd comes up with a new plan to secure his future. Lucy runs into a familiar face. Will they be friend or foe?
After roughly 400 years on the air the producers of "General Hospital" are clearly asleep at the wheel, because if they weren't they'd have gotten Mario Cipollini to join the cast years ago.
I'd offer some additional recommendations, but I'm starting to feel sick to my stomach about paying for cable. Still, I'll be watching the Oprah interview, but only because I have it on good authority that Armstrong and Oprah spend part two in a pup tent talking to Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston on a Ouija board.
Of course, the other option is to just turn off the TV altogether. Read a book! Spend time with family! Or, if you're from Portland, remind people that you don't even own a TV! Speaking of Portland, while it may have taken on the role of America's Candyland in the popular imagination, the truth is that life can get pretty real out there. In fact, a reader tells me a Portland woman recently fell between two buildings and firefighters had to extract her with soapy water:
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Portland firefighters cut a hole through concrete and used an air bag and a soapy lubricant to free an Oregon woman who fell part of the way down a 20-foot wall and got herself stuck between two buildings Wednesday morning.
The woman spent about four hours in a space 8 to 10 inches wide before rescuers managed to free her as television cameras filmed much of the effort.
Police still don't know how she wound up in her predicament in the first place, but they're operating on the theory that she wanted some actual wall experience to bring more realism to her miming performances. Despite the successful rescue, the Portland cycling community is outraged that bicycles were not utilized in any way by the first responders. For this reason, there will be a Stuck-Between-Two-Walls Theme Ride this coming Sunday during which one lucky rider will be wedged between the same two walls and then extracted with a modified bakfiets "pump-and-pull" bike. Participants are encouraged to bring their own Dr. Bronner's.
By the way, Portlanders had better watch out, because a reader informs me that Detroit is right on Portland's wheel in the creative smugness race:
The work explores the nuances of mobility. The artist One DR contributed a skateboard painted with flying saucers in outer space. Vito Valdez's oil painting depicts a buffalo crossing a railroad track as a small dinosaur looms in the background. Mavis Farr uses crushed vintage metal mini cars for her necklaces. "It's about the auto industry's absentee parent relationship with Detroit, and also about the mining, manufacture, sales and eventual discarding and decay of metals and gemstones," Ms. Farr wrote in her artist statement.
The centerpiece of the show will be a giant empty room, in which the organizers will exhibit The Car That David Byrne Does Not Own.
Speaking of the future of mobility, I have now seen it, thanks to this video that was sent to me by still another reader:
I've long been searching for a bicycle that will awaken the pretty young girl in me, and I think I may finally have found it:
In turn, I may also have found mutual joy:
Here is mutual joy:
And here is the mutual joy of passing two losers on "normal" bikes:
It seems they have it backwards and the people on the normal human-powered bikes should be fit and wearing Lycra, while the people on the electric bikes should be out of shape and wearing street clothes, but what do I know?
Either way, beating losers up hills creates mutual joy and strengthens relationships:
I'll take two:
You need that extra power to escape the wrath of Mike Sinyard.
Lastly, still yet another reader tells me that if you're bike got stolen in Ireland recently it may have been this guy:
I may have stolen your bike
Posted on January 13, 2013
Ok, so I was really drunk Friday (11/1/13) and woke up yesterday morning to find a bike outside my house. I don't know how it got there. Maybe I stole it, maybe I bought it, maybe I won it in a dance off. I just don't know. I don't usually do things like that and would love to return it to its owner. But there's where things get hard. I have no idea where I got this bike from. I remember being in Industry nightclub in Temple Bar, Dublin and I woke up this morning in my house in Phibsboro. Total blackout. So maybe I took from somewhere in between those two places but to be honest I could have been in Armagh last night for all I know. Anyway, it's a blue men's bike. That's all I can say as the owner will have to be able to describe it to me to get it back. Email me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you think it's yours. This is not a joke, I really want to give this bike back. I'm not a scumbag. Oh, and I lost my wallet. If anyone's found one let me know. I know, I'd really want to sort my life out.
Honestly, who hasn't gotten drunk and ridden home on a stolen bike?

Twoje wyszukiwanie, jeśli zakończy się powodzeniem, wyświetli listę alfabetyczną/chronologiczną. Możesz następnie przeglądać
w przód i wstecz poszczególne listy lub indeksy. Nie musisz używać wielkich liter.
Podczas przeglądania listy, możesz kliknąć przycisk
The Browse List displays the number of records for each entry and indicates whether or not there are cross-references for the entry. Click on an underlined entry to see the associated records for the entry. There are three ways to go to a Browse List:
The catalog records are encoded in the Unicode character set. Unicode allows for the display of a
large range of alphabets and diacritics (also known as accent marks) and special characters.
If Arial Unicode MS is not available to you, other fonts can be used with the Web OPAC. For information on other fonts that support Unicode, see the Useful resources link at www.unicode.org.
The Preferences option lets you set up the display of information on your screen. For example, you
can determine the language of the interface and the language of the thesaurus terms shown to you.
You can also set the order in which records are sorted and you can determine the format in which
records are presented. These actions can be done from the Preferences screen or from the My
Library Card screen (personal profile). You cannot save your customized view if you are not a
registered user.
To see a list of available databases, click Database from the menu bar. Your library
determines which databases you are allowed to access.
In the Full view of a record, you can see the record in a variety of formats that change the tags
from standard ALEPH tags to name tags or alphanumeric tags. You can also select the Catalog card
or citation style.
The History function allows you to view your search queries, which you saved on your previous
visits to the library. These search queries are saved in a permanent buffer and can be used as
bookmarks for future use. You save your queries in the History buffer from the
Previous Searches screen.
To view Holdings information for a given library:
This function enables you to request material from another library. You can borrow a book or
journal, or request a photocopy of the material. Fill in as much information as possible in the
interlibrary loan screen. Fields with * are mandatory. This option is only available if you are
signed in and have the necessary permission.
This function enables you to create a booking request for the item (available only for authorized users). To create a booking request:
You can create your own set of records and save it in a buffer, which is called My e-shelf. If you
are an identified patron, the records that you save in My e-shelf are not be deleted when your
session is over. If you are a guest user, the buffer is deleted when your session ends.
The My Library Card screen displays your circulation information. It also enables you to perform
a number of online activities.
Note that in order to protect your personal information, the system does not allow the browser's Back function from most of My Library Card's pages. Instead of taking you to the previous page, the system opens the page that you opened before going to My Library Card.
You can view the results of previous searches, incorporate them into new searches, or combine them
into one result set.
To cross sets with the First Set not Second and Second Set not First operations, choose two sets only.
To place a request on an item:
Many libraries maintain a reserve collection from which patrons can borrow items on a short-term
basis (for example, for one or two hours).
The Special Request function lets you place requests for items that are not found in the Web OPAC,
but are listed in the card catalog. The link for making a special request is displayed in the menu
bar if your patron profile includes permission for placing a special request.
Once you have selected records, you can save them or forward them by e-mail.
SDI (Selective Dissemination of Information) is designed to alert patrons to recently added or
updated records in their specified area of interest. The SDI mechanism enables your library to
send you notification about new publications on a specific field as well as new journal issues
that have arrived at the library.
The Search function enables you to find records by entering keywords or phrases. To perform any
search, click on Search from the menu bar. There are five different Search types available in Web
OPAC: Basic; Multi-base; Multi-field; CCL; and Advanced Search.
Advanced Search lets you search the database for keywords present anywhere in the catalog record,
or only in specific fields (for example, author, title, publisher, and so on). You can use
pull-down menus to specify the search fields. Web OPAC offers various fields such as Author,
Subject, Title, and so on. The relationship between the fields is handled by the logical
operator, AND. To view a list of records, click on an adjacent link in the No. of records column.
In this screen, you can choose a field to be searched such as Author, Subject, Publication Year,
System Number, and so on, and type in the keywords. Lowercase letters can also find matches of
capitalized words. You can use the Boolean operators AND, OR, and NOT in the search string. You
can also use AND/OR/NOT as real words (that is, not as Boolean operators) when they are part of a
phrase, as in, for example, TIT=gone but NOT forgotten, or if the operator is
enclosed in double quotes, as in, for example WTI=gone but "NOT" forgotten (NOT is
written in uppercase for the sake of clarity - it can be lowercase in the search query).
A Search request is limited to the number of records the System is set to (for example, 5000). In
addition, the default result display limit and sort limit in the results list window is 1000.
In addition to the Search Hints at the bottom of each Search screen, the following are additional rules for all types of searches: The ? character or * character (asterisk) can be placed at the left, right or middle of a portion of a word, but it can never be used more than once in a text string. The # symbol can be used to find variant spellings in cases where one version of the word has one more character than another version. For example, colo#:r will find both color and colour; and arch#eology will find both archaeology and archeology. The ! character can be used to find variant spellings in cases where a single character may vary. For example, wom!n will retrieve both woman and women. The % symbol, followed by a number, can be placed between two words to indicate that you want the words to appear within a particular distance from each other, irrespective of what order the words appear in. For example, england %3 ballads will retrieve Ballads of England , Ballads of Merry Olde England and England and Her Ballads. The ! character, followed by a number, can be placed between two words to indicate that you want the words to appear within a particular distance from each other, and in the same order in which you type the words. In this case, ballads !3 england will retrieve Ballads of England and Ballads of Merry Olde England but not England and Her Ballads. The -> (hyphen and greater than symbols) can be placed between two words. This indicates that you want to retrieve records that have words from (and including) the first word, through the second word. This search is particularly helpful for limiting a set of records by year of publication. You cannot use to instead of the symbols. Here is an example: 1993 -> 1996
You can use Common Command Language (CCL) to search for words and headings in several different
indexes at once. You must specify the code of the word and the heading indexes to be searched. The
abbreviations used in CCL can be found in the following CCL Code section.
Following are some of the abbreviations used by the Common Command Language:
LCC - LC Class
You can use the Multi-base Search to search more than one database at a time. This lets you
retrieve a set of records in your selected databases which match your specified criteria. When
you click Go, the Multi-base search results page displays. This page contains the list of
the searched databases with the number of records retrieved per database. Click the database link
in order to view the results of your search in this particular base.
The Multi-Field Search lets you search more than one word group at the same time, with "AND"
between them. The more fields you can fill in, the narrower the search.
The list of records appears in the results list window. When you enter a successful search query,
or click on an underlined entry from the browse list, a Results List is displayed. The Results
List can display up to 1000 records. The Results List shows how many records satisfy your query
specifications. Each record in a Results List is sequentially numbered. The search results can be
displayed in different formats.
Creating a subset allows you to work with a group of records selected from a result set. Select
records in the results list, and then click Create Subset. The results list will then
display only the records you have put in the subset. This subset can be treated just like any
result set: records can be selected, added to a list, sent by e-mail, or turned into another
Filter enables you to define filter options post-search, creating your own filter or using
predefined filter options.
You can rank the results by adding an additional word to the search term/s used in the current
search. Records are ranked according to a formula that takes into account the number of times the
word appears in a record, and the weight given to the word (for example, if the word appears in
the title, it may be given a greater weight).
Refine allows you to broaden or narrow your search strategy by expanding your terminology
or creating subsets of your search. You can modify your search by changing the Common Command
Language. You can also add terms using the drop-down options, or you can execute an entirely new
You can sort records using predefined sort options. Additionally, in the Brief view table, you can
click on a column heading to sort the list (for example, clicking Author sorts records by Author,
then by Year).

My 4 kids adore the pokemon I've made for them so far from your patterns. I found them so addictive I invented a Diglett for them yesterday - my first ever self-made pattern! It turned out GREAT. Thank-you for the inspiration. Now two want to learn crochet for themselves, lol. - October 6, 2010 at 10:09 AM

Oh, I *know* the addictive part! LOL. Although I still love making jewelry, doilies, clothes, blankets and the rest - I am addicted to 3D crochet. I love making dolls...and no matter what else I'm working on, I'm 'designing' a new doll pattern in my head :D

I am also addicted to crocheting in 3D. I love making pokemon the best though. My favorite of your patterns is lugia. I haven't made it yet, mainly becaus I don't have the right yarn. Which is hard to believe considering how much yarn I own! I also like to wing it. Ive made quite a few on my own, but I like using your patterns better alot of times. Im going to star a bulbasaur I think. Any tips?

I am simply amazed by your pokemon plushies and your patterns for making them. They all look so very similar to the pokemon themselves, and I think they are much neater than just picking up a plushie online or at a store. I've been wanting to learn to crochet and this has definitely given me the motivation to learn and then make some of my favorite pokemon once I'm better at it. :D
This Lugia plushie is astounding though! It looks AWESOME! Much better than many of the official Lugia plushies I have seen. You should think of doing Ho-oh. ;)
Also want to point out that I love the detail you put into the colors for the pokemon, too. And your descriptions for the patterns seem so informative and descriptive. Thanks for sharing the patterns in advance! I'm sure I'll be using them in the near future. :) - October 28, 2010 at 2:52 AM

Is it possible for you to post an entry on how you make these patterns? I've crocheted a few of your patterns and my friends all love them, but now I have a friend who wants a Raikou.
Any advice please?? - December 9, 2010 at 1:26 PM
- WolfDreamer said...
Candice: My method for making them is really rather simple. I look up pictures in various poses and angles of what I want to make. (Or for something I just dream up, I make a sketch from several angles). Then just start crocheting.
Each of the parts is general shape, so I start by deciding what shapes I'm going to need, and what modifications are needed to get the look I want.
I often have to make several versions before I find the one that works best, but that's part of the process. :D
I always pin everything together, and place it somewhere that I can see it from all angles and just leave it there for a day or so, looking at it and making sure I like the overall design and placement, before I sew things together.
Hope that helps some. I really dont have a complicated method. LOL - December 9, 2010 at 2:04 PM

OMGEEZERS! SO COOL! I made my friend Yami an Umbreon (thanks to your pattern) and her sister wants me to make a shadow lugia, because that's her favorite pokemon. My wrist is bothering me already...
I just have one question, how do you do your rounds? Do you do a continuous spiral, or do you do the 'slst to first st, ch 1, and turn' method, because I would really like to know what is most effective. - August 22, 2011 at 10:04 PM
- WolfDreamer said...
I don't use the continuous spiral .... I do join the rounds with a slip stitch, chain 1, but don't TURN.
After you sl st and chain 1, place your first stitch in the SAME place you just joined in, and continue around, do not turn. When you reach the end of the round, ignore the slip stitch AND the chain one, slip stitch to the first actual sc of the round, then chain 1 and put your first stitch in that same place as you just joined in....
You might think you're leaving a 'gap' at the end of the round by ignoring the sl st and chain 1, but you're not. :D - August 22, 2011 at 10:53 PM

First of all, I really love this one! It's gorgeous and it really looks like the one from the anime! ^^
But second, I have a question about the head-neck-body part.
In the pattern you say this:
Rnd 8-12: sc in each sc around (24)
Rnd 13: sc in next 2 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (18)
Rnd 14-16: sc in each sc around (18)
Rnd 17: sc in next 4 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (15)
I'm from Belgium and English patterns are sometimes still a riddle for me, so I quite don't understand the part "sc in next 2 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (18)". It doesn't seem right when I do it. I do single stiches in the next 2 stiches, then I dec in the next 2, then I just stich around. But it always gets to 22 stiches :S
Could you please explain how to do that round? - June 8, 2012 at 8:00 AM

I love this! Thanks so much for sharing. One suggestion so far:
Rnd 13: sc in next 2 sc, dec over next 2 sc around (18)
maybe you sould do the *sc in next 2 sc, dec over next 2 sc* repeat around
thingy to clear it up. I counted to find the right way to do it =) - November 14, 2013 at 9:51 PM

I dont really understand your way of explaining the pattern, I don't read where I have to increase and stuff, it's like ok sc 3 than sc than sc 3 than sc, I don't really get it.
- November 25, 2016 at 9:54 AM
- WolfDreamer said...
That's sc in the next 3 sc, then 3 sc in the next sc. Anytime you see #sc in the next sc, it means to work that# of sc in the next stitch. Increases are sometimes more than working 2sc in a single stitch. It depends on the need of the rate of increase.

Pyrex® 8" x 12" Divided Glass Baking Dish
Product Details
- Divided design lets you cook two foods at the same time
- Versatile one-stop dish is ideal for any food, from savory sides to sweet deserts
- Serve-worthy design goes from oven to table in style
- Durable high-quality tempered glass offers even heating performance
- Built-in handles offer a secure grip, making it easy to carry from oven to table
- Resists stains and does not absorb food odors or flavors
- Dishwasher, freezer, microwave and preheated-oven safe
- Made from pure Pyrex® glass
- Made in China
- 2-year limited warranty
Pyrex® glassware is designed to be as versatile as it is long lasting. You can use it to prepare, store, cook, bake, warm or reheat food—in pre-heated conventional and convection ovens, or in microwaves. And cleanup is easy – just place your Pyrex® glassware in the dishwasher. As with any glass product, there are a few common-sense precautions to keep in mind for your safety when using Pyrex® glassware. Your safety is important to us, so please read the guidance below. If you don't use Pyrex® glassware in a way that is consistent with this guidance, it could break and cause injury.
Be sure to read the entire safety and usage instructions accompanying your Pyrex® glassware before use.
Avoid Hard Knocks
While Pyrex® glass is heat strengthened, through a thermal tempering process, to be durable and long-lasting, Pyrex® glassware-- any glass products, for that matter--can break if it's dropped, knocked against a hard surface, or struck with a hard utensil—so handle your Pyrex® glassware with care. If a piece of Pyrex® glassware does become chipped, cracked or scratched, don't use it, as its strength may be compromised and it could break or shatter (even long after a chip or crack appears). And if you do break a piece of Pyrex® glassware, use thick gloves and a great deal of caution cleaning the broken glass, as pieces can be extremely sharp and be widely spread from the point of breakage.Protect Your Hands from Burning
Of course glassware gets extremely hot in both conventional and microwave ovens, so use protective pot-holders to handle heated glass--don't ever touch the hot glass with your bare hands, or allow it to come into contact with your body. Keep hot glass well out of children's reach.Don't Subject Glass to Sudden Temperature Changes or Direct Heat Sources
Uneven heating, direct contact with heating elements, and sudden temperature changes (hot glassware coming in contact with something cool or wet, or cold glassware coming in contact with something very hot) can cause glass to shatter or break. To avoid this, follow these precautions:- Always preheat your oven before placing your Pyrex® dish inside it. While the glass is designed for temperatures typically used in baking, it can break when exposed to the direct heat element while the oven is preheating.
- Do not use Pyrex® glassware on the stovetop (open flame, electric burner), under the broiler, in a toaster oven, or on a barbecue grill. This type of usage exposes Pyrex® glassware to potentially damaging direct heat sources.
- Before cooking items that may release liquid (including fat, food juices, or moisture from frozen foods) in your Pyrex® glassware, add a small amount of liquid to cover the bottom of the dish before you put it in the oven. This serves to minimize any potential sudden temperature change that may occur as the food releases liquid. Once a Pyrex® dish is already hot, do not add liquid to it (for example, by basting with liquid not already in the dish). Adding liquid to hot glass may compromise the product's strength, potentially resulting in breakage.
- Avoid placing a hot Pyrex® dish directly on a countertop or wet, cool or metal surface. Place it on a dry cloth or potholder, or on a wooden trivet or cooling rack.
- Allow Pyrex to come to room temperature before immersing in water or placing in the freezer, refrigerator, microwave or pre-heated oven.
- Don't use Pyrex to microwave popcorn or heat foods in browning wrappers. Microwavable popcorn bags and browning wrappers are specially designed to concentrate heat in targeted spots, and may damage the glass.
- Don't heat empty or nearly empty glass containers in the microware. When heating oil or butter in the microwave, heat only for the minimal time required—don't overheat.
Easy Care
- Pyrex® glassware plastic lids are BPA free. They are safe for use in the microwave and for food storage. Pyrex® lids cannot be placed in conventional or convection ovens (because they'll melt), unless specifically noted on the package that they are designed for oven use (as with Pyrex® Ultimate Storage silicone and glass lids).
- Pyrex® glassware and lids are dishwasher safe, making cleanup easy and carefree. Keep both plastic lids and glassware away from direct heat elements in the dishwasher.
- When washing Pyrex® glassware by hand, use non-abrasive cleansers. To remove baked-on foods, soak the dish and use a plastic or nylon cleaning pad if scouring is needed.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause injury or property damage.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Do not use if punctured, seam is split or COLD/HOT pack otherwise appears damaged.
- Avoid eye contact and do not ingest material contained in this pack.
- Not for use other than as directed below and in the accompanying products Safety and Usage Instructions.
- Lay flat for atleast 8 hours
- Only heat in microwave
- DO NOT boil, heat on stove or use in any oven
- DO NOT place warm COLD/HOT PACK directly on surfaces that may burn
- USE hot pads to remove COLD/HOT PACK from the microwave
- COLD/HOT PACK MUST BE COMPLETELY THAWED before using in a microwave oven
- Heating a frozen pack could cause pack to rupture
- Heat the room temperature COLD/HOT PACK in a microwave on HIGH for 1 1/2 minutes. If COLD/HOT PACK has not begun to expand after 1 1/2 minutes, continue to microwave on HIGH in 30 second intervals while watching the COLD/HOT PACK to see if it begins to expand. Once the COLD/HOT PACK begins to expand, heating is complete and microwave MUST BE TURNED OFF

How to calculate 5:00 pm EST to PST yourself:
- Identify the time zones: Determine the time zones for both the starting location (EST) and the destination location (PST).
- Calculate the offset: Find the difference in hours (and sometimes minutes) between the two time zones. This is usually expressed as a positive or negative offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). In this case, the offset between Eastern Standard Time and Pacific Standard Time is -3 hours.
- Consider daylight saving time: Check if either the starting or destination time zone is currently observing daylight saving time. If so, make sure to adjust your calculation by adding or subtracting one hour as needed.
- Apply the offset: Add or subtract the calculated offset to the given time in the starting time zone (5:00 pm). Be mindful of any potential "wrap-around" when crossing the International Date Line or switching between AM and PM.
By following these steps, you can convert the time between Eastern Standard Time and Pacific Standard Time accurately. However, if you prefer a hassle-free way to find the time in another part of the world, feel free to use our Time Zone Conversion Calculator on the directory page.

WASHINGTON (AP) -Members of Congress ex- pressed serious concerns Sun- day about the safety of Ameri- cans at next month's Winter Olympics in Russia and said Moscow needs to cooperate more on security.
Suicide bombings last month in the southern Russian city of Volgograd, about 400 miles (640 kilometers) from where the Sochi Games will be held, have contributed to the safety anxiety. Russian President Vladimir Putin has promised that his country will do all it can to ensure a safe Olympics without imposing security
measures that are too intrusive. The State Department has advised Americans who plan to attend the Olympics, which run from Feb. 7-23, that they should keep vigilant about security because of potential terrorist threats, crime and uncertain
medical care. "We don't seem to be getting
all of the information we need to protect our athletes in the games,'' said Republican Rep. Mike Rogers, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. "I think this needs to change, and it should change soon.''
But FBI Director James Comey said earlier in January that the Russian government "understands the threat and is devoting the resources to ad-
dress it.'' Rogers contended that the
Russians "aren't giving us the full story about what are the threat streams, who do we need to worry about, are those groups, the terrorist groups who have had some success, are they still plotting? There's a missing gap, and you never want that when you go into something I think as important as the Olympic Games and the security of the athletes, and the participants and those who come to watch.''
Republican Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said from Moscow that he planned to be in Sochi on Monday to assess the secu-
rity situation. "All the briefings that I've
received, from the intelligence community to the FBI and oth- ers, indicate that there are seri- ous concerns, and that we need to do a lot to step up security. I do believe Putin is doing a lot of that,'' said McCaul.
While he said diplomatic security has declared Russian cooperation on safety measures is good, he said "it could be a lot better, and that's one thing I want to press while I'm over here.''
Comey, the FBI head, told reporters this month in Wash- ington that "we have been in regular communication _ in- cluding me personally _ with their security organizations to
make sure we're coordinating well. I think that we are. We've improved our information sharing on counterterrorism and it's important.''
No one has claimed re- sponsibility for the December bombings in Volgograd. But the blasts followed Chechen warlord Doku Umarov's call to launch attacks on the Olym- pics.
"I would not go, and I don't think I would send my family,'' said independent Sen. Angus King.
An insurgency seeking to create an independent Islamic state in the Caucasus has swept the region after two separatist wars in Chechnya. Chechnya's Moscow-backed strongman,
Ramzan Kadyrov, claimed Thursday that Umarov was dead, but he offered no proof to the claim he had repeatedly made in the past.
The province of Dagestan, located between Chechnya and the Caspian Sea, about 300 miles (480 kilometers) east of Sochi, has become the center of the rebellion, with daily shoot- ings and bombings of police and other officials.
Rogers appeared on CNN's "State of the Union'' and CBS' "Face the Nation.'' King was on CNN and McCaul spoke on ABC's "This Week.''
