The Michigan Lawyers Chapter of the American Constitution Society presented a powerful program on wrongful convictions to UDM Law students.
Thomas Highers, who with his brother, Raymond, spent 25 years in prison for a murder they did not commit, appeared with his attorney, Valerie Newman, to tell the story of their case. The brothers were released last summer when a Wayne County Circuit Court judge granted them a new trial due to overwhelming evidence of their innocence and mistaken witness identifications.
The presentation was powerfully poignant in showing the human side of lawyering. Mr. Highers showed profound gratitude for his lawyer's efforts and did not appear bitter about the painful experience. The students were rapt in attention throughout his compelling story. Event Photo >>

On April 28, a truck caught on fire at 800 South and Main Street in Orangeville at approximately 4 p.m. The truck being driven by Jake Mangum, an Orangeville resident noticed the bed of his truck was on fire, at that same time the rear window exploded. He pulled over to the side of the road near Randall Stilson's property.
The truck was a total loss. The driver said he remembered passing a small red truck and thought the occupants had flipped a cigarette butt or something out the window. But, he really wasn't sure. The materials in the back of his truck began to smolder and then ignited. He exited the vehicle and called the Emery County Sheriff's Office.
The Castle Dale and Orangeville fire departments responded quickly to put out the flames but the truck was totaled by then. Things became even more interesting as shotgun shells began exploding from the truck bed.
Sgt. Tom Harrison reported there were no injuries at the scene. The two rear tires also exploded adding to the noise which some described as sounding like a war zone.
The Stilson's fence was damaged by the heat of the blaze as the fence turned brown and melted. The pick-up was a 99 Dodge. The driver was alone in the vehicle at the time of the fire.

Aphasia is a communication disorder. People with aphasia may have difficulty with the expression and/or understanding of language, as well as reading and writing.
Aphasia is caused by an injury to parts of the brain that are involved with language. The injury may be the result of:
- Stroke
, which is the most common cause
- Severe blow to the head
- Gunshot wound
- Other traumatic head injury
- Brain tumor
- Brain infection
- Neurodegenerative disorders
- Other brain conditions

Aphasia is a communication disorder. People with aphasia may have difficulty with the expression and/or understanding of language, as well as reading and writing.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
If you have a brain condition, you are probably already seeing a doctor who specializes in the nervous system. This doctor will most likely be able to recognize your aphasia. Some simple tests may be done. For example, you may be asked to follow commands, answer questions, name objects, and have a conversation. You may then be referred to a speech-language pathologist who will perform additional tests to assess your speech and language skills.
Images may be taken of structures inside your head. This can be done with:
- MRI scan
- CT scan
Your bodily fluids may be tested. This can be done with:
The most common cause of aphasia is stroke.
To help reduce your chances of a stroke:
- Exercise regularly
- Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables
- Limit dietary salt and fat
- Stop smoking
- If you drink, do so in moderation.
- Maintain an healthy weight
- Monitor and control your blood pressure
- Consider taking low-dose aspirin, if your physician advises you do so.
Keep existing conditions, such as
high cholesterol
, under control.
- Seek immediate medical help if you experience symptoms of a stroke
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your chances of developing aphasia include:
- Age: Older adult
- Family history of aphasia
- Prior history of transient ischemic attacks (TIA)—also called mini-strokes
Aphasia is a symptom of an underlying problem. It may include:
Difficulty speaking:
- Speaking in short, fragmented phrases
- Putting words in the wrong order
- Using incorrect grammar
- Switching sounds or words
- Speaking in nonsense
- Anomia—word-finding problems
Problems understanding oral language:
- Needing extra time to process language
- Difficulty following very fast speech
- Taking the literal meaning of a figure of speech
- Problems reading
- Problems writing
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment will focus on:
- Treating the underlying cause of aphasia
- Aphasia symptoms
Options for treating aphasia itself include:

France need to win and win big in Rome on Saturday if they are to keep their hopes of defending the Six Nations crown alive.
France need to win – and win big – in Rome on Saturday if they are to keep their hopes of defending the Six Nations crown alive.
Contrary to what some sectors of the press might lead us to believe, England still have a lot of work to do before they can lay their hands of the trophy and Les Bleus are still in with a shout.
French victories against Italy and Wales are likely and it's more than plausible that the English stumble in Dublin. Yet, even if that scenario does play out over the next two weekends, France need to catch up to the English on points difference. The gap currently stands at 53 points, thanks largely to the drubbing handed to the Azzurri at Twickenham.
Italy have never beaten France, and despite the Azzurri having pushed Ireland and Wales very close recently, it's fair to say the visitors will start as overwhelming favourites at Stadio Flaminio on Saturday.
That said, on the basis of Italy's home games this year, it's difficult to see a repeat of the 50-point lesson the French handed out the last time they were in the Italian capital.
Win or lose this weekend, let's hope the hosts display the same kind of positive attacking spirit that almost got the better of Wales. It's a rare sight to see Nick Mallett's charges have a go with ball in hand and how refreshing it was to them threaten the opposition with something other than a rolling maul.
As usual, most of the noise in the build up has surrounded the French selection choices. In Marc Lièvremont's defence (and it's rare we spring to his defence when it comes to selection), the French coach has at least shown consistency in his choices – good or bad – during the championship, unlike that latter half of last year.
Not for the first time, Sébastien Chabal is the centre of controversy. The Caveman's detractors were up in arms after France's loss in London, pointing to the number eight's performance an example of how he has a tendency to go missing in big games. The general consensus amongst the critics is that Imanol Harinordoquy should by in the middle of the back row and they were left frustrated when the big Biarrot was left on the bench this weekend.
Lièvremont's logic for sticking with Chabal does hold some weight however. While Harinordoquy played a full 80 minutes for his club last weekend, Chabal was allowed to graft in the gym while Racing traveled to Bourgoin. With just a handful of games left before the World Cup, Lièvremont wants to give Chabal, who has been hampered a series of niggles over the past few months, as much game time as possible in the blue jersey to find his best form ahead of the global showpiece. The coach has also said that Harinordoquy will start against Wales, suggesting that Chabal is seen more as the back-up choice in the long run.
While Nick Mallet has given his side a sizable overhaul, none of the changes will come as a huge shock. Most of the names that have been shuffled around are the same we've seen in the Azzurri squad for some time now – with the exception of youngsters Tommaso Benvenuti and Fabio Semenzato.
Likewise, the glaring gap in the Italy's arsenal is not a new one: The lack of a quality place-kicker continues to hamper their progress. What Mallett would give to have a Morne Steyn or a Ronan O'Gara is his side, someone he could rely on his slot nine out of ten kicks. Mirco Bergamasco does not even kick at goal for his club yet he has had to shoulder that responsibility for his national team – an unthinkable situation for any other leading Test nation. Sadly, if the truth be told, Luciano Orquera's selection at fly-half has more to do Italy's need for reliable points accumulator from the tee than his ability to control the game.
Speaking of controlling the game, Italy will have their work cut out for them if they are looking to dominate up front, as is their habit. No one shoves this French pack around. Forwards coach Didier Retière didn't have too many good things to say about the officiating at scrum time at Twickenham and his heavies will want to set the record straight.
We all know how good the hosts' scrum is and more than a few of Italy's forward ply their trade in the Top 14, or have in the past. You know what the say about familiarity and what it breeds. Expect fireworks in the tight stuff!
Players to watch:
For Italy: 24-year-old Fabio Semenzato is the latest candidate in Italy's long search for the new Alessandro Troncon. Earning only his third cap, Semenzato will look to build on a positive start to his Test career. Up against Morgan Parra, who has a real knack for cutting under the skin of his opposite number, the young Treviso number nine has a stern Test ahead of him. Italian scrum-halves can usually count on their pack moving forward, but that won't be a given against probably the best forwards unit in Europe. How will he cope? It'll be interesting to find out.
For France: With all the fuss surrounding certain other French loose forwards, it's been easy to overlook the man brought into the starting line-up this week, Julien Bonnaire. His versatility make him the ideal squad member but it's not difficult to find a pundit who thinks he should be a regular fixture in France's run-on side. The last time France where in Rome, Bonnaire was making his first start in bleu for nearly a year, so it seems to be a venue that holds good omens for the Clermont flank. He had storming game against Toulon last week and even scored a try. Will we be treated to more of the same this weekend?
Head-to-head: They play for rival Parisian clubs who are set for a showdown on the last day of the French championship, but opposing number eights Sébastien Chabal and Sergio Parisse won't be thinking that far ahead. Parisse has been the best player in his position in the tournament but Chabal is due a big performance. It should be a classic….

Unlikely. Basically, you should avoid mini tuocha - they're terrible. You'll find higher quality compressed teas to be much better.

Skip to comments.Podesta calls on Obama to circumvent Congress
Posted on 11/17/2010 3:54:13 AM PST by Zakeet
Former President Bill Clintons chief of staff John Podesta, now the head of the Center for American Progress, called on President Obama to push forward with his agenda using federal agencies and executive branch power Tuesday, even though Democrats were dealt a blow in the recent midterm elections. Podesta said the American people want the president to move forward with his agenda.
I think most of the conversation since the election has been about how President Obama adjusts to the new situation on Capitol Hill, Podesta said. While thats an important conversation, it simply ignores the presidents ability to use all levels of his power and authority to move the country forward.
Citing his experience in Clintons White House after the GOP House takeover of 1994, Podesta said Obamas administration can and should take the specific measures detailed in a report released by the Center for American Progress, utilizing all the tools at its disposal to circumvent Congress in a way to keep his agenda moving forward.
One of the best ways for the Obama administration to achieve results of that nature, in the short term, is through substantial executive authority to make and implement policy, Podesta said. As noted in the Constitution and the laws of the United States give the president the ability and the responsibility to act as the chief executive using authorities granted to all presidents such as executive orders, rule-makings, agency management and public-private partnerships.

The peasants want the Wee Wee to move forward with his agenda
This is why I'm confused about the earmarks. Does this empower the executive branch even more? I totally like the idea of no earmarks but worry about that part.
"the American people want the president to move forward with his agenda. ".............No John..that is what the election was about..The American people DO NOT want the president to move forward...brakes on and throwing the country in reverse!
Overplays his hand some more...
We will go to court to restrain him...
--and all of his thugs....
--To arrest this crew and try them for high treason while we impeach this poser...
So the Center for American "Progress" (quotes mine) wants 0bama to exercise dictatorial powers? Am I the only one who sees the irony in that?
Go ahead John, this will bring around impeachment, trial and conviction for abuse of power.
Cut funds to all the agencies that he wants to begin using for these policies. As an example, if obama wants to install a cap and tax through EPA regulation, then cut the EPA's budget by 30% immediately. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it, zero!
To answer your question, no. Congress holds the checkbook and with a new Sherrif in town come January, I expect them to choke off his ability to do so because the blank checks of the 111th congress will be gone. He can order all he wants to but Congress can starve anything he does by defunding any attempts. There is also a means of killing EO's in the Congress as well. I would suspect that shortly after the swearing in ceremony's that a few party flippers will be happening. Faced with a Congress willing to take on Obama in the public arena, you will even see enough Democrats willing to go along on a veto over ride or at least threaten to do so. Several of them came very close to losing their seats as well.
On the topic at large, geez, whoda thunk it that this would be coming from Podesta?/sarc Wasn't it right before and after the election that one of Soro's groups started making these noises?
Maybe this is a devious Clinton plan to complete Obama's destruction before 2012.
Podesta is acting out of school and out of power. He should have made this pronouncement directly to the President and act without fanfare and on the QT.
The time to talk is after the action, not before
Not lost on me!
I think you are on to something.
Podesta knows he will be rewarded for whatever help he
provide to Bill & Hill
we have to assume that anything Podesta says is coming directly from Soros. He wants there to be a constitutional crisis so people lose faith in the system.
If Obama starts doing this, there should be an uprising from both sides of the aisle and impeachment proceedings.
Podesta's Center for American Progress is funded by George Soros. He wants BO's Communist agenda to go forward, in spite of the American people rejecting it, because that will be the end of the USA.
The Congress needs to start impeachment proceedings the minute the first executive orders are put on the table. The Executive Branch is not supposed to make laws for the country, period.
No need for confusion on earmarks. They are a symbol of what's wrong about Washington and our political corruption. In an of themselves the earmark like any other tool can be good or bad— but they have been abused. and the only way to cure the abuse is to seek promise to end earmarks. What bothers me is it seems the political game that this position may be a compromise that will bite us in the behind-for what will they NOT hear us on down the road when the Republicans have the House?I like what Alan West said about his going to Washington-to fix what is broken -then come home.
Podesta is Buster the body crab whispering in his Presidents ear saying what the Poser in the White House saying what the
edicated idiot is itching to hear.
Podesta Calls On Obama To Take A Straight Razor To His Wrists, And Those Of The Entire Democrat Party
If O'Bunghole starts using Executive Orders and various of his 'shadow Government' appointees and 'Czars' to circumvent our Constitutional process, it'll be the political end of him, his administration, and the Democrat Party. They'll be lucky to get out with their skin.

And your reply is EXACTLY what I hope those we sent to congress will adhere to.But I worry that the environment in Washington D.C. is such that like this so called "ethics" thing with good time Charlie.I fear Congress will agree that Obummer is not really qualified to be President and that they have much to disagree about but will lack the political will and the Moral character to do the right thing and remove the
contaminated material to the burn pit.
The Clintons vs. Obama may join the list of History's most infamous feuds. We can only hope for no collateral damage.
"Does this empower the executive branch even more?"
Yep - which is why Inhofe (who is further from being a RINO than Reagan was) supported them. But it still doesn't matter, and he even gets it now, for we can thank Senator McCain and ESPECIALLY Senator Stevens for distorting what earmarks are...to the point of making them more poisonous than trying to fix SocSecurity.
If the Congress spends the next two years knocking down any and all of Obama's Executive Orders, I would be happy with that Congress.
Not enough patriots among the ranks of Congress to get this done I'm afraid.
As Rocky would say,"Go for it!"
I was just reading an interesting historical account of Salvador Allende the other day...and power trips, all on behalf of "The People" of course.
According to his oath of office, it is not the President's job to "move the country forward", John.
This little Commie is another one that needs to go. He and Leon Panetta are peas in a pod, only Leon appears less radical.
The bad news is that Panetta is heading the CIA.
Isn't Podesta a Clinton man?
I suspect the Clinton's want him to push harder and take himself out of the 2012 election.
Wouldn't it be delicious for Bill to have another impeached president running around the country?
He could once again say"they all do it so it's okay to be impeached".
Push the issue. Escalate it to a Constitutional Crisis.
Form committees and groups in all towns, cities and states, under the existing conservative and Tea Party structures. Form a National 10th Ammendment Contact Committee between the GOP Governors of friendly, resistant states, and coordinate their various national guards and information flows.
If the elite overlords in D.C. are going to "bring it" through unconstitutional Executive Orders and Administrative Legislation by the Executive Branch, which I figured they would in the closing two months of 2010, now is about their only chance. If they "bring it", the People had better be ready also to "bring it".
Man, are they overplaying their hands...or at least floating trial balloons.
Bovine Scatology!
Podesta said the American people want the president to move forward with his agenda.
This Podesta guy must be smoking the same stuff Slick Willie was smoking. Where does he get the FU idea that
the American people want Hussein Obama to do anything?
Did not he understand the ass kicking the RATS got a few weeks ago?
Not immediately. That would play into Obama's hands. Aided by the state-controlled media, he would play it just the way Clinton played Gingrich's "government shut-down."
It has to be allowed to bite, or at least to stay in force long enough so that it's a looming cost hit for everyone in America. Conservative media (talk radio and the internet) has to be allowed time to explain what will happen when cap and tax takes effect. The debate has to play out. Only then can the power of the purse be brought to bear.
Let's not make the same mistakes we made in 1994 and 1995.
The American people want leaders and repealers, NOT rulers and regulators.
Which is why we voted for Republicans in greater numbers than at any time since 1946. Because a Republican landslide is a mandate for Democrats! It all makes sense.
Podesta, another 'Klintonista' trying to ensure 0Bozo is a one-term wonder and making room for the Klintons in the White House.
Podesta is a SOROS man - Center for American Progress is a Soros front-group.
Great strategy, Podesta. How's that "ignore the will of the people" thing workin' out for ya so far?
If this is the caliber of advisors Obamateur has around him, it's no wonder he's falling faster than pigeon poop.
Simple fix to excess executive action. Cut off funds to whatever agency is inplementing his dictatorial edicts.
It could turn out to be a good thing as various agencies cease to exist. Provided the house republicans have the backbone to carry through.
"Maybe this is a devious Clinton plan to complete Obamas destruction before 2012."
Could be:
Organizations Funded Directly by George Soros and his Open Society Institute
By Discover The Networks
July 2007
Excerpt: Center for American Progress: This leftist think tank is headed by former Clinton chief of staff John Podesta, works closely with Hillary Clinton, and employs numerous former Clinton administration staffers. It is committed to "developing a long-term vision of a progressive America" and "providing a forum to generate new progressive ideas and policy proposals."
Go to the link provided above for the rest of the list if you wish.
Democrats: Consistently Inconsistent to Serve You Better
It's a cookbook.
Shouldn't they at least set the Reichstag on fire first?
Flagrant, publicized abuse of executive power won't help the Dems in the Presidential Election of 2012, John.
Quite literally, they will be lucky to get out alive.

Six Sentence Sunday
Once more, it's Sunday! Whew - where does the time go, eh? I sit down on most weekends (when I do find a minute to sit down, that is) and wonder where the past week has gone. Half the time, I have absolutely no idea! [not to mention that this past week has been one amazing ride - check the blog to see what I'm talking about]
So, Sunday... SSS... and if I'm not mistaken, it's Mother's Day today in the US. We celebrate it on the last Sunday of May here in Mauritius, but anywho, Happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there.
Speaking of mums, and parenthood, and my current WIP... From the previous SSS posts (here, and here), a lot of you were intrigued as to what was the real 'deal' between the hero and heroine in this story. I promised to unveil the 'revelation' this week, and in a way, it's perfect that today is Mother's Day. A mother is at the heart of this plot twist. Check it out.
This conversation takes place a few paragraphs down from last week's six sentences. Kelsey has come to Stellan's office to ask for his help, and is about to disclose why she needs him. The two were teenage lovers, and haven't seen each other for close to 2 decades. She's placed the picture of a premature baby in an incubator on the desk between them.
'..."The baby's yours?"
"She's," Kelsey paused, looked down, anywhere away from his gaze, "she's ours."
He glanced at the time stamp on the picture - two days ago. "Kelsey, we haven't seen each other in more than eighteen years. How can that child be mine?"
"She's our granddaughter."...'
As always, eager to hear what you think!
Have a great Sunday!
From Mauritius with love,

Casual Pump
"This shoe is really cute and the strap is a unique detail. It is reasonably comfortable to walk around in and wide enough that I didn't get any blisters (I have pretty wide feet). I added some ball-of-foot cushions for additional comfort for walking. The shoe is meant to look somewhat distressed, so the color is a bit faded compared to the red on the screen, and it makes the shoe more casual. True to size."

classy and good for work
"The first time I wore these, I wore them to work and was on my feet all day. Not only were my feet fine by the end of the day, but I got quite a few compliments, as well. The leather is soft, and the color is rich - great shoes for a business casual environment such as mine."

Looked cute online - felt cheap in person
"These looked super cute online, but when I got them in person, they felt and looked super cheap. The materials and stitching weren't very quality and the color was a bit odd. I was disappointed to take them back, but I did. *sigh*"

Walking on Water in France with South Coast Surf Shop Rider John Noris
Words: John Noris
Photos: Michael Barrus www.michaelbarrus.com
It's as though the trip never even happened. I'm back home. Scratch that. The past two weeks were by far some of the best two weeks of my life. Fragments of time were frozen and are now embedded into the virtual camera in my head. Memories of barreling French beach breaks, baguettes, beautiful women, Caprice Des Dieux cheese, wine by the bottle and kebabs run through my head just about every second of the day. The rumors are true. Everybody needs a little bit of France in them.
By my side for the two week adventure were two of my good friends Michael Barrus and Marty Weinstein, both fairly experienced travelers. The only problem at this point in time was that none of us spoke French. Our journey began in Paris, where we suddenly realized that we had absolutely no clue what our plans were. Luckily during our layover in Phoenix, Marty decided to email his friend Martin who had spent a couple of summers as an exchange student with his family in Orange County. When Marty checked his email upon our arrival at the Charles De Galle airport, there was a response from Martin saying "I'm in Biarritz…come hang out with me and my friends for a week!". We had a destination. Three wrong train stations and three hours later running amok the underground subway system of Paris, we finally found the correct terminal to purchase our train tickets to Biarritz. Now for the six hour train ride. I guess they call it a hop, skip and a jump or whatever…anyways.
We get settled into our place (Martin Dupont's house)in Biarritz and finally more than a day later, we get to sleep. We wake up, hop into Martin's car( imagine Jason Bourne driving through the streets) and sketchily work our way up through the tiny streets of Biarritz, Anglet, and Capbreton to Hossegor. We take a casual stroll to the beach to be welcomed by perfect six-to-eight foot right handers and all of the sudden it hits us. We're in France. Suit up, wax up, run to the beach and jump in the water. I manage to get barreled on my first wave and, well, every single wave after that. Perfection like i've never seen before. About an hour into the session I snap my leash, get caught in a current for 15 minutes and decide to call it quits. Marty, after getting barreled every wave as well, sees me on the beach and paddles in. Now is about the time that I inform whoever may be reading this that there are too many Marty's to keep track of (4 of them to be exact) so good luck. Our host Martin Dupont (Martin's friend that lives in Biarritz) comes to meet up with us while he's on his lunch break and tells us he got word that a wave called La Piste is going off so away we go. We show up to La Piste and when we see the waves start freaking out. Four-to-six foot right hand barrels. Six hours and about one hundred barrels later Martin comes back to pick us up. Anyways, the next four days we surfed about six hours each day in some of the most rippable waves one could imagine. One more thing- we got to snowboard in fresh powder in St. Lary on our last day there. Sounds too dreamy doesn't it?
South Coast thanks Johnny for the travel update! We look forward to hearing more from him and his travels in the coming months. For more on his trip to France and more photos by Michael Barrus check out Johnny's travel blog:

Game No.7: New Kid in Town
Kent Wilson
October 22 2010 05:08PM
Ryan is out of commission today, so the game thread snark will have to come from me.
Yesterday did a lot to undermine both the fans and the coaches belief in the top end of the roster: Iginla to some degree, but Jokinen mostly. Why there was faith there in the first place is probably truer mystery, given the manner in which the previous Jokinen experiment failed so spectacularly. And althogh we're just six games into the new year, it's safe to say the theorized "Alex Tanguay can feed the two snipers!!1!" fix...ain't.
With all the new stats and analysis and graphs and discussion of player types, one very simple truth sometimes gets lost in the mix: having a good team is about having good players. While discussions of chemistry and fitting sniper A with passer B provides fodder for messageboards and water coolers, what really matters is how effective you versus other good players. As such, nothing was going to make Jokinen a better player when he landed back in Calgary, short of a miralce and drastic change in how he was being by Sutter. We collectively didn't pray enough, so the former hasn't happened (yet). With Joker being benched last night and slowly being filtered down the line-up, we may be moving closer to the latter.
New kid Mikkelson will be in the line-up tonight and he's performance will hopefully good enough to push Staios even closer to Abbotsford. The Blue Jackets have proven to be a formidable foe for the Flames over the years (despite being rather mediocre) and this being a second night of back-to-back means the 23 year old won't exactly be coddled in his Flames debut.
Fire it up.
Kent, you should fire up the "Cover it Live" for a live blog. Or does it cost money or something?
Kent, based on your logic
Good Players = Good PP
Yeah, I suppose, since you are counting the chances too.
October 22 2010, 05:21PM
Well at the very least, that second line did a nice job down low and drew a penalty. I'll take anything positive when Jokinen is on the ice.
October 22 2010, 05:23PM
I wasn't a huge detractor of the Morrison signing, I thought it was not bad...but I'm starting to come around. Last three games, he's been pretty impressive.
October 22 2010, 05:24PM
Nice job Mason. Oh well, it's a powerplay goal.
October 22 2010, 05:30PM
Hagman's goal officially ES. So no PP goal. Another chance here though, make it work.
@Kent Wilson
Because Sutter hates us.
Yikes. Bad rebound by Karlsson this time.
Chances are 3-2 and the score is 2-1!
At least the Flames are actually playing with Karlsson in net.
A big change from the "shuffle around aimlessly" that they did in front of McBackup.
Gotta feel sorry for the Blue Jackets. They ring one off the post, then it goes the other way and Mason let's in an easy one. Not their day.
jokers got 2 points already tonite,how long till butter puts him on the first line?
Boy, White has looked just terrible this season. Good thing we didn't give him that extra $3.
nice shortie
Great play by Backlund! Is it safe to say he'll usurp Sexpanther's spot on the second line within a month?
Great play by Backlund! Is it safe to say he'll usurp Sexpanther's spot on the second line within a month?
If there is a god, he will make that happen.
Is our PK really that good or is is Columbus's PP just that bad?
@Kent Wilson
That was a two handed to the face by Nash. It should be suspendable, but I'm not sure it'll even be reviewed.
Haha, Iggy donates $2K per goal to kids sport... Wonder if they are starting to worry about their funding this year?
Probably a bit of both.
Really surprised with how listless the BJ's are in their own barn tonight.
To be fair, it's hard to play for your fans when there's only 6000 of them.
October 22 2010, 06:21PM
looks like Mikkelson was the missing piece of the puzzle
@Kent If the crowd is anything like it was last home game, I'm not sure it feels much like a home game in Columbus...
To be fair, it's hard to play for your fans when there's only 6000 of them.
Haha. I just saw a player on the Columbus bench yawning. Kid you not. They really don't care.
@Kent Wilson
Agreed. This is possibly the longest 40 minutes in the history of mankind.
@Kent All of a sudden I don't blame Columbus residents for not shelling out for tickets. Not the most inspiring team in the world, are they? And the Flames appear to ahve decided to play down to their level...

The mutual fund that epitomizes "Go big, or go home" is reopening. Fairholme Fund (FAIRX) said Friday it's accepting new investor money starting today. Should you buy in?
Only if you're comfortable with big, concentrated bets — this fund was nearly 90% invested midyear in just 10 companies. Comfort with "Go big" may end up applying especially when it comes to troubled mortgage giants Fannie Mae (FNMA) and Freddie Mac (FMCC), two companies Barron's has argued aren't coming back to life. Fairholme manager Bruce Berkowitz said Friday one aim could include building bigger stakes in both companies, the WSJ's Kirsten Grind and Nick Timiraos reported:
Mr. Berkowitz said he continues to believe "Fannie and Freddie are a huge part of the American dream" and that the shares are undervalued. "We haven't found a way to disprove our thesis about Fannie and Freddie," he said.
The comments follow a recent speech by President Barack Obama that was dismissive of the idea of the government again giving over control of Fannie and Freddie to investors.
You have to be especially fond of American International Group (AIG), too — its weighting was nearly half the entire mutual fund as of mid-2013. Bank of America (BAC) is another favorite, at about 14%.
This fund was at the top spot in the Barron's ranking of "active share" early this year — that's a measure of how far a mutual fund diverges from its benchmark. Being #1 means Fairholme was the likeliest of all large-cap mutual funds to either blow away its benchmark, or trail it badly.
It's done both, as it happens, in the past two years: The fund slumped 32% in 2011 when the S&P total return was slightly positive; then it surged nearly 36% last year, more than doubling the benchmark. This year it's slightly ahead of the S&P 500, 19.3% to 17.7%, according to Morningstar.
It's all too much for S&P Capital IQ's fund analysts. "We think the fund's previously strong track record has been tarnished by a horrendous 2011 and we believe the fund incurs elevated risk through its holdings," write S&P Todd Rosenbluth and Geoffrey Mrema. For investors who want a highly concentrated portfolio, the S&P duo prefers Smead Fund Value (SMVLX) and ING Corporate Leaders Trust (LEXCX).

"I love the style of these shoes. I'm a fan of Diba shoes in general. This is my third pair from this brand. The heel has a "rubber" bottom so the heel isn't clacking super loud when you walk on tile or wood floors, which I love, and they're relatively comfortable. The buckle is a bit tight on the top of my foot, but I feel they'll definitely loosen up as I wear them. The buckles and laces can both be tightened or loosened to your liking. I had to size half a size up from my normal size cause they ran a bit narrow for me."

These boots rock!
"I had been looking for a brown bootie that I could wear with jeans and dresses and this is the one! I love the sturdiness of the heel although it was a little higher than I expected, still a great buy."

Love them!
"Overall I love these booties! They run a bit narrow. The laces under the buckles can be a bit tricky to maneuver and the tongue slips down when you put them on, but other than that they are very comfortable. They look great dressed down with jeans and dressed up with dresses."

No problem! It was my fault for staying away, I guess. We actually went out of state last summer and besides seeing our daughter and her family, we went with them to a Scandinavian shop where I bought Christmas decorations. Right now two of the family(our granddaughter and the toddler grandson) have H1N1. :(
It's so great about your new job! Congrats!

Engineering, Building, and Architecture
Not many museums collect houses. The National Museum of American History has four, as well as two outbuildings, 11 rooms, an elevator, many building components, and some architectural elements from the White House. Drafting manuals are supplemented by many prints of buildings and other architectural subjects. The breadth of the museum's collections adds some surprising objects to these holdings, such as fans, purses, handkerchiefs, T-shirts, and other objects bearing images of buildings.
The engineering artifacts document the history of civil and mechanical engineering in the United States. So far, the Museum has declined to collect dams, skyscrapers, and bridges, but these and other important engineering achievements are preserved through blueprints, drawings, models, photographs, sketches, paintings, technical reports, and field notes.
"Engineering, Building, and Architecture - Overview" showing 2 items.
Keuffel & Esser 68-1944 Demonstration Slide Rule
- Description
- This is a one-sided 79-inch demonstration slide rule from 1967. It is made of painted wood, with a plastic cursor that has a wooden frame. In the early seventeenth century, the Scottish mathematician John Napier discovered functions known as logarithms which make it possible to reduce problems of multiplication, division, and taking the roots of numbers to additions and subtractions.
- On a slide rule, the logarithms of numbers are represented as lengths. To multiply, one length is set on the base, and another added to it using the slide. The sum of the logarithms, which gives the product, is read off using the cursor. This slide rule also has scales for finding the squares, cubes, square roots, and cube roots of numbers.
- Slide rules first became popular in the United States in the 1890s, especially among engineers and scientists. Use of the device was taught in high schools and universities using oversized instruments like this. During the 1960s, the United States placed new emphasis on teaching mathematics and science. This slide rule was purchased and used at a high school for girls in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. By the late 1970s, slide rules would be almost entirely displaced by handheld electronic calculators.

Family Fallout Shelter
- Description
- The family fallout shelter represents the public policy assumptions of the atomic age, namely, that with enough preparation, the American family and with it the nation's social and political fabric would survive a nuclear attack. This free-standing, double-hulled steel shelter was installed beneath the front yard of Mr. and Mrs. Murland E. Anderson of Ft. Wayne, Indiana. The Andersons purchased their shelter from J. L. Haverstock, a Ft. Wayne realtor who began selling family fallout shelters as a sideline in early 1955 after reading a promotional Life magazine article.
- The Andersons maintained the shelter from its installation in 1955 through the 1960s, a period spanning the development of the hydrogen bomb and the Cuban missile crisis. Insufficiently anchored against Ft. Wayne's high water table when first installed, the shelter popped to the surface of the Anderson front yard in time for the Cuban missile crisis and was quickly reinterred in a frenzy of shelter building activity in 1961. The donors purchased the property, including the shelter, from the Andersons in 1968.

Lake Fork Hyper Stick 9pk
The Lake Fork Hyper Stick offers a unique action unlike any other stick bait on the market thanks to Lake Fork's exclusive segmented body design. Providing increased movement and shimmy from your stick bait, the combination of the three segments and the lure's soft plastic construction has proven deadly for bass looking for an easy meal. Still the ultimate do-nothing bait, the Lake Fork Hyper Stick will catch fish year around. Perfect for Texas-rigging, it's garlic scented and salt-impregnated like all Lake Fork soft plastics for added fish attraction. Pro-tested and tournament-proven, Lake Fork Trophy Lures' mission is to provide anglers with innovative, quality fishing lures that are reasonably priced and made in the USA.

Customer Reviews
Comments: This was recommended to me over a traditional senko. I am still new at finesse fishing and it has been one of the best soft plastics I've used. The only way I used it is weightless cause they keep bighting. but I'm sure there are plenty of other ways to use it.
From: Chito: Athens, OH
Comments: caught an eight pound bass on this today. got alot bites swimming it too.
From: Alex: Orlando, FL
Comments: Watermelon chartreuse pepper is the only color producing fish and this is the only worm we can get bit on here in Cen. TX. I have never been skunked using these. However, they last 3 smaller fish or only 2 good sized ones. They can't move through cover too too well, but hey, they catch fish. If I could rate these, it would be a 4/5.
From: Jake: C. TX
Comments: I think this is my first review on a lure that I have purchases. These things are awesome. We have been using them for about a month and it has consistently produced quality fish. I would say that we have caught are largest fish out of 2 lakes that we fish using these.
From: Aaron: C'Ville
Comments: greastest bait ever

Comments: i have caught a ton of fish on these baits, they will out fish a regular senko any day.

A day of shopping finds mobile apps aren't driving store sales—they could be hurting them.
It's one thing to read about all the great marketing apps that stores are implementing, it's quite another to actually use them. That's the lesson I learned last month when Internet Retailer paid me to go shopping around Chicago and try out mobile marketing apps in stores. I went to four stores: Best Buy, Old Navy, American Eagle and Home Depot. And, well, I was shocked and disappointed with my experience. (You can read the full magazine story Mobile in stores: A reality check here.)
In short, there is a major difference between the promises in the press releases promoting the apps that cross my desk and my personal experience.
I first found that most stores didn't have Wi-Fi, which doesn't bode well for consumers using mobile marketing apps such as shopkick in stores. Consumers who download a free shopkick app to their iPhone or Android device can earn what shopkick calls kicks—essentially rewards points—for walking into a store. They also receive other offers while in the store for doing things such as scanning bar codes on items.
Additionally, most of the store associates I spoke with didn't know about shopkick and they couldn't tell me what was in it for me if I went to the trouble of using it. Lastly, there were no store signs at any of the retailers promoting the app, so if I hadn't already known about the program, I never would have used it.
I also found that retailers didn't promote their own apps at all in stores—despite many of the retailers' apps offering bar code scanning capabilities that could come in handy for accessing rating and reviews of products.
The two mobile shopping apps that did work extremely well, however, were eBay Inc.'s RedLaser, and Amazon Price Check, both of which returned lower prices for items I scanned in stores. A fact which doesn't bode well for stores concerned about showrooming.
Needless to say, I'm going to ask tougher questions and be a bit more skeptical when reading story pitches about how mobile marketing apps are helping store retailers drive sales. My experiment showed how valuable field reporting really is, and I'm hoping to get out from under my pile of e-mail and daily duties to do it a bit more often. Because as I found there can be a big difference between what I am told will happen and what actually does.

Indian Prime Minister A.B. Vajpayee shocked the world by testing a nuclear weapon in May. Indians burn President Clinton in effigy after he declared his opposition to Indian nuclear testing.
At the basis of India and Pakistan's show of nuclear brinkmanship was the disputed territory of Kashmir, which had already caused two wars between the countries as well as a half-century of acrimony. Slapped with sanctions by the U.S. and other countries, Pakistan and India agreed in October (with major caveats) to sign the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty.
The possibility of Asian nuclear proliferation resurfaced when North Korea launched a test missile over Japan in September 1998. Although North Korea claimed it had simply launched a scientific satellite, Japan and much of the rest of the world remained apprehensive over North Korea's commitment to the 1994 non-proliferation treaty.

perfect for work
"Bought these shoes for my man for work because they seemed sturdy enough to with-stand standing in them for hours without wanting to cut your feet off. I was right! He wears them for 8 hours straight standing and hasn't complained once."
