Obamacare headlines: 7/17/09
Despite how fast they're trying to move forward, things are starting to get bumpy for Obamacare. Here's a roundup of some of the latest coverage.
Poll: Americans split on health care as Obama's approval sinks
Americans are divided over how they want health care fixed and whom they trust most to do it, refusing to forge a consensus for or against President Barack Obama as he and Congress march toward a historic overhaul. ...
Obama and the Democrats who control Congress are pressing toward a vast overhaul of the health care system that could include tax increases to pay for expanded coverage and a federal government-run insurance plan to compete with private insurers as one way to try to rein in insurance costs. Most Republican lawmakers say that a public plan would drive private insurers out of business.
On one key question, the poll found Americans split over the benefits of being able to buy insurance from a new government program. While 40 percent said they thought it would lower the quality of their care, 21 percent said it would improve the quality and 36 percent said it wouldn't make any difference. The rest had no opinion. ...
The survey found the ranks of people who think the country is on the right track dropping to 40 percent, down 12 points since early June and the lowest since Obama took office in January.
One other problem for Obama from this poll: it found that people oppose taxing the value of their employer-provided health insurance, by 64-32. Maybe they were actually paying attention when Obama promised he would never raise taxes on people making under 250 grand.
Centrist Dem Leader: Has Committee Votes To Block Health Bill
WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- U.S. Rep. Mike Ross, D-Ark., a leader of fiscally conservative House Democrats, said Wednesday a House plan to overhaul the U.S. health-care system is losing support and will be stuck in committee without changes.
"Last time I checked, it takes seven Democrats to stop a bill in the Energy and Commerce Committee," Ross told reporters after a House vote. "We had seven against it last Friday; we have 10 today."
Three House committees are slated to begin considering the $1 trillion-plus bill this week, but the Energy and Commerce looms as the biggest challenge. That's because it counts among its 36 Democratic members seven members of the Blue Dog Coalition, a fiscally conservative bloc that is opposing the House Democrats' effort.
Now these "fiscally conservative" Democrats will get a chance to prove if they are what they say they are. But I'm not holding my breath.
These plans will reduce your choices (NY Post)
If President Obama signs either bill into law, he'll be breaking a host of promises. Neither the House nor Senate would guarantee that you can keep your private health plan if you like it. Or that patients will retain their relationships with their doctors.
And that bit about cutting the typical family's health costs by $2,500 a year? A howler, if there ever was one. Deficit neutrality? Level playing field for plan competition? Fuhgeddaboudit.
Each bill would create a new government health plan to compete against private insurers. In the House version, this "competition" would take place via a "national health insurance exchange," a new entity run by a "Health Choices Commissioner." In the Senate, a "public plan" would compete against private health plans through federally supervised state entities called "gateways."
Either way, taxpayers would assume the risks.
No kidding. "Risks" to the tune of over a trillion dollars - they THINK - in less than a decade. Not to mention the non-financial risks of having your health at the mercy of a government run bureaucracy. Now that's "change"...just not much "hope".
And here's my favorite of the day...
CBO Chief Says Democrats' Proposals Lack Necessary Controls on Spending
Congress's chief budget analyst delivered a devastating assessment yesterday of the health-care proposals drafted by congressional Democrats, fueling an insurrection among fiscal conservatives in the House and pushing negotiators in the Senate to redouble efforts to draw up a new plan that more effectively restrains federal spending.
Under questioning by members of the Senate Budget Committee, Douglas Elmendorf, director of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, said bills crafted by House leaders and the Senate health committee do not propose "the sort of fundamental changes" necessary to rein in the skyrocketing cost of government health programs, particularly Medicare. On the contrary, Elmendorf said, the measures would pile on an expensive new program to cover the uninsured.
After this kind of honesty, this guy better start polishing his resume.

Lisfranc Fracture Symptoms and Treatment
Medical Author: Benjamin C. Wedro, MD, FAAEM
Medical Editors: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD
When Napoleon led his army to disaster in the Russian winter, many of his soldiers suffered from frostbite and developed gangrene of the toes and feet. Dr. Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin figured out the anatomy of the foot, and found that cutting through joint spaces made amputation easier. His legacy is that fractures, dislocations, and sprains that affect the junction between the upper and lower foot bones bear his name. Lisfranc injuries refer to damage to the joints where the long thin metatarsal bones of the foot meet the tarsal bones (the cuboid and cuneiforms) that make up the midfoot.
Lisfranc fractures often occur when a person steps in a hole and the toes become caught, and then the person falls forward. This torque causes the ligaments that hold the joints together to tear, the joint to become unstable, and the alignment of the bones to be lost. In car accidents or other major trauma injuries, not only can the ligaments be damaged, but when the bones break, the midfoot can dislocate. In football, the Lisfranc joint is damaged when the toe is pointed downward and another player falls on the exposed heel. Such was the fate that befell Matt Schaub of the Houston Texans in 2011, and Dwight Freeney of the Indianapolis Colts in 2007.

Well, as you all know who read this blog, I am a Cluetrainian. This means I believe that anyone who spends their time and talent online are online influencers and potential important brand ambassadors. Marketers balk with visions of lost dollar signs, especially when the in-house social media communications professional generally balances email newsletter, traditional PR and site copy. Marketers forget that influencers aren't necessary partial to the brand, with the loyalty of a salary or paycheck. They may, shocker, actually be genuinely interested in the topic.
Leveraging the brand's equity to build one's own brand is common, a fame narcotic if you will. While I encourage each one of my colleagues to build their own brand equity I need them to maintain egalitarian and democratic values when engaging online on behalf of clients. I don't want them to lose their tone and voice, I just want them to filter it depending on the audience.
Don't know where to start? Well, I know for a fact that there's a guy in Brazil who will hook you up with thousands of Brazilian tweeters almost immediately for a fee. That's somewhere to start. Once you've bought your online friends, you have to deliver the je ne sais quois to keep them. If you suck, are salesy, don't tweet or post very often, are selfish, don't play games or bait conversation, don't give til it hurts, even all of these thousands of purchased followers will start unfollowing you almost immediately.
It is sort of like being an opening act to U2: you might have 30,000 folks who didn't come to see you who are there to see Bono but there's no guarantee that they'll ever buy your album. There's every reason they should but you really could make a mess of it — if they don't, it is your fault as they were your customers to lose. Same thing with buying followers and likes. If the targeting is completely off, if you suck as a host, or if you're boring or rude, they're gone — at least the real ones are.
Stated simply, the state of the art in social media is still bespoke, based on old models of public relations where each particular PR agent has a Rolodex and that card represents years and years of personal relationships . Very precious and personal connections, formed and tempered over time, built on trust.
And, this very same framework has been mapped directly into social media where many agencies and companies spend all of their time taking their current 25 mainstream media contacts and 25 social media contacts to dinners at Mortons. There's not enough budget or time to prospect much further or deeper than that.
Which is a sincere pity.
How can one take an old PR model that only concerns itself with an easy-to-manage elite core of gate-keeping journalists, publishers, and broadcasters and map that onto a new media model? A model that could potentially include anyone and everyone who should decide to commit to starting blogging. Producing content for online consumption, resulting in becoming an online influencer. It's like the circle of success.
In this theory of everyone, in this theory of long tail digital PR outreach and engagement, it is essential to find viable ways of 1) discovering everyone — because there are potentially a lot of people that show up in your net when you're being inclusive and indiscriminate 2) keeping that list up-to-date as blogs are launched and shuttered every day.

HARTFORD — Outgoing U.S. Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman, I-Conn., as his parting gift to the electorate, is establishing a scholarship fund for high school students who show an interest in public service.
As part of his farewell tour, Lieberman stopped at the state Capitol to announce the scholarship that each year will award $1,500 towards college for five Connecticut students, to be renewed up to three additional years. The first recipients are to be announced in June.
Lieberman, who has had a long political career at the state level and 24 years in the U.S. Senate, said he will start with a few hundred thousand dollars in campaign funds and plans to do more fundraising to bring the total to $1 million to feed the Joe Lieberman Connecticut Scholarship program.
He said he hoped the awards will help the students to get more aid for college. In addition to high academic achievement, Lieberman said those chosen must show leadership potential and have participated in community service.
Lieberman said without a college education – (he was the first in his family to earn higher education degrees) – "I would never have had any of the extraordinary opportunities that I have had … . I hope to help future generations of Connecticut students have the same kinds of opportunities in college and after that I have had."
Lieberman, who is leaving the Senate on Jan. 3, will deliver his last address on the Senate floor on Wednesday.
He has not decided what he will do, although he ruled out lobbying, and plans to move back to Stamford to be close to his children, several of whom are in New York. Some areas he is considering are working for a law firm or working on public policy or public service.
Lieberman, in a press conference after the scholarship announcement, said he hopes the Senate changes its rules on the filibuster that requires 60 votes now on everything, including procedural matters. Personally he said it should be like the House with a simple majority carrying the day.
As he has before, Lieberman called the present Senate "dysfunctional" in its inability to compromise. Continued...
He said the filibuster prevented his efforts to pass legislation on climate change and on cyber security, which were the most disappointing aspects of his long career in that body.
He said a bipartisan climate change bill got more than 50 votes and should have passed.
On the second issue, the senator said experts continue to warn that "we are vulnerable to a cyber-attack that will be more devastating than 9/11 was. It will be an attack on our critical infrastructure that is privately owned – electric power grid, telecommunications, financial networks, oil and gas pipelines – all of them controlled today by cyber management systems."
The senator said not one expert says we are adequately protected from these kinds of attacks. This bill had more than 50 votes in the summer to take it up, but not 60.
"These are two big things where I think our country is really threatened and we stopped from doing anything about it because of the 60-vote requirement," he said.
As the chairman of Homeland Security, Lieberman said one of his last votes will be against any more cuts in the defense budget and while he is glad there is talk of progress in avoiding the "fiscal cliff" he said he personally hasn't seen a deal advance on that crucial issue.
He hopes Congress simply doesn't just push the solution down the road. The fact, however, that Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-Ohio, and President Barack Obama issued the same statement after their recent meeting does give some reason for hope.
"There's a lot to do in three weeks," he said of the January deadline.
Lieberman said a deal needs to reduce the increasing cost of the entitlements, particularly Medicare, and raise taxes, which he said both parties privately agree is the solution, although it is tough politically.
Lieberman said both Boehner and Obama have been empowered by the November election to push their agendas. Continued...
On an international policy issue, the longtime senator said sending weapons to the Syrian rebels early on in that conflict "was about as close to a no-brainer as you find in foreign policy" both from both humanitarian and strategic reasons.
"Unfortunately we haven't done much in the past 20 months" and the situation is now more complicated with reports that al Qaeda is getting involved.
"But it is still not too late. The opposition is gaining ground. My fear is that (Bashar) al- Assad (the Syrian president) will be really desperate and consider using chemical and biological weapons," Lieberman said. He wants the U.S. to openly recognize the Syrian opposition coalition and give them weapons, particularly anti-aircraft weapons.
As he enters a new chapter in his career, Lieberman said the most consistent advice he has gotten is to not rush into anything.
One of his friends said to him: "For more than 40 years now, your inbox has always been full. On Jan. 3, your inbox will suddenly be empty and there is a danger that you will rush to fill it up and you could make mistakes."
Lieberman praised the soon-to-be senior senator from Connecticut – Richard Blumenthal – and said his replacement, Chris Murphy, will be an asset.
"Dick is an extremely hard worker. He is off to a very good start. We worked very well together over the two years," Lieberman said. "I think Dick Murphy will be a great addition to the team. He is certainly well prepared ... we are ready for a seamless transition," he said.
The Stamford native and former longtime New Haven resident said his farewell address in Washington won't be a listing of his accomplishments as much as a drawing lessons from his almost quarter century in the body, the form of advice to those remaining behind.
He said the ideological rigidity and partisanship present in the Senate is responsible for its inability to get anything done. Continued...
Lieberman said he often reminds his colleagues of the "Connecticut Compromise" where Oliver Ellsworth and Roger Sherman, at the Constitutional Convention, proposed two chambers – one determined by population and the other a body where each state elected two senators.
"The very institution of the Congress is the result of compromise," Lieberman said and with 300 million people in the U.S. now and Congress reflecting its diversity, "you can't expect to get 100 percent what you want" and those who try usually end up with "zero percent."
Lieberman, who was known for his outreach to Republicans, said on major initiatives particularly, he always sought bipartisan support.
By requiring a supermajority vote on everything, the argument was "you stopped an irrational passion" from sweeping the country going into law, but the senator said inherent checks and balances in the system has always prohibited that.
He said as we were taught in school, in a democracy, the majority determines an issue and the Senate would solve more of the country's problems if that were the case.
Asked if he any regrets, Lieberman did not mention his controversial stand in Connecticut on the Iraq War, which cost him the Democratic primary against Ned Lamont in 2006.
He then ran and won as an independent, but continued to caucus with the Democrats although his support of his friend, U.S. Sen. John McCain, Obama's Republican opponent in 2008, further alienated him from his Democratic colleagues.

I kind of figured that after a weekend as exciting as last, this one was going to be several notches down on the fun scale, but little did I know exactly how far down it would fall. I went to a yoga class on Thursday night, and not even five minutes into it I felt a snap in my lower back. Instead of rolling up my mat and walking out like any sane person would do, I stuck around for the rest of the hour, gradually modifying my movements according to the pain that was increasing by the second. By the time the class ended, I could barely stand up to walk to the locker room, and on the way to my car I had to stop every ten feet as I was overcome by a back spasm. I didn't plan to start my weekend on Thursday, but when you're unable to roll out of bed on Friday morning without writhing in pain, getting on a bus and eventually sitting upright in a chair for several hours isn't really in the cards.
I spent most of Friday laying on the couch with an ice pack, but once Matt headed out of town on Friday afternoon and a voice of reason was no longer present to tell me to stop moving around and lay down, I spent a lot of time in the kitchen. To be honest, I didn't realize just how much time I spent in the kitchen until I uploaded all of the photos to my computer, and now I completely understand why I was in so much pain on Sunday after having felt so much better on Saturday. Sitting still isn't my thing, even if the effect of my restlessness is pain. At least there were freshly baked cookies to help me cope!
Without further ado, here's everything* that I made while I should have been laying on the couch.
*Not pictured: a poorly photographed loaf of lemony olive oil banana bread
Stovetop macaroni and cheese plus broccoli that was lightly blanched in the pasta water. I made about a third of this recipe, and it was neither amazing nor terrible, as evidenced by the leftovers still being around yet remaining uneaten.
Toasted brioche with avocado and a fried egg, strawberries, tea.
I was feeling considerably better on Saturday and ventured out to buy groceries, where I was overcome by the urge to buy a container of sprouts. I was pretty hungry by the time I got home, so I made a wrap with the sprouts and a bunch of other veggies. Again, not great but not bad.
I ordered Pizza Luce for a late dinner, and continuing with the theme, it was not very good, mostly bad and very bland. The salad was decent, though.
Another activity that I should have skipped in order to rest: bread baking.
I made two loaves of partially whole wheat bread, and while they were pretty inside, they weren't my best work. Maybe it was the universe telling me to sit down and relax.
Toast with harissa, fried eggs, blackberries, tea, orange juice. Fuel for more Sunday activities that I probably shouldn't have done.
Like baking oatmeal M&M cookies. They were good.
Then I made pesto/tomato/mozzarella/basil sandwiches for a picnic lunch with girlfriends.
The only benefit of being stuck in horrible traffic because the main road between Minneapolis and St. Paul is closed for the weekend is that it's a great opportunity for icing your back.
If you thought that making breakfast, baking cookies and preparing sandwiches seems like a lot of activity for someone who should be doing none of those things, you'd be right. Instead, I did all of those things and prepared a pork shoulder for a day of slow cooking in the crock pot. At least I simplified the recipe to cut out most of the labor-intensive steps.
By the time I got home from our picnic, my stubbornness was being punished with frequent back spasms, but that didn't stop me from preparing a batch of creamy cilantro lime sauce to go with the pork. Some things are worth a little pain, and anyone who's had the green sauce from Brasa knows that this sauce is one of them.
After I cleaned my plate, I rested.

Child abuse continues to be a serious pediatric and social problem all over the world. Although earlier studies attempted to separate the impact of physical from sexual abuse, contemporary research is focusing on the impact of polyvictimization, as it is the rare child who experiences only one type of abuse. It has become clear that the worst outcomes are seen in children who experience a multitude of adversities and that such youth are most likely to experience poor mental and physical health. Prevention efforts, timely intervention, and fostering resiliency of abused children can help mitigate some of the long-term effects of abuse.

Vocal Impressions
CD (Item 43038) Dare Dare (France), Early 70s — Condition: New Copy
A gem of a sound library record from the great Janko Nilovic! The album features Nilovic penning some great jazzy arrangements for "wordless vocals" – sung by either a man or a woman, in a very groovy style! The tracks run from pepped-up ditties that have a "Mah Na Na" feel, to others that are in a breezy/easy mellow kind of mode, touched with a bit of the Italian bossa, and slight touches of funk. Some of these cuts have shown up on other Nilovic compilations over the years – but the set's a great one to hear together, as the mix of voices and styles is really great! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

About Craps
Craps is a popular dice game played in casinos that is a simplified version of an Old English game called "Hazard".
From Hazard to Craps
The rules of the game Hazard were established by French mathematician Pierre Remond de Montmort in the early 1700s. Mentioned often by the author Chaucer in the Canterbury Tales, The Hazard game became a hugely popular English game and seems to be the forerunner of the game craps and became a popular game in 17th century gambling houses.
The History of Craps
The origin of Craps is disputed but may possibly date back to the time of the Crusades and the Holy Roman Empire when soldiers would entertain themselves by shaving down pig knuckles into cube shapes which they would toss onto their inverted shields. From this came the term "to roll the bones". Gamblers in France later influenced the game further and the game was further popularised around 1813 by Bernard de Marigny of New Orleans where he introduced tha game. The revised game of Hazard, then known as Crapaud and then as Craps soon became popular in Mississippi river steamboats and later spread to casinos and gambling halls throughout the country. By 1910, craps had become the most popular casino game in the world.
Craps Popularity and Bernard de Marigny
Eventually, the game was brought to New Orleans by a certain Bernard Xavier Philippe de Marigny de Mandeville (commonly known as Bernard de Marigny), who was a spoilt child of wealthy Louisiana landowners, an eventual gambler and known politician who became President of the Louisiana Senate between 1822-23 but succeeded no further in his political ambitions due to his eccentric and selfish ways.
The Craps game became very popular in New Orleans where the French Creole, African American people popularized it. Known as "Crapaud" which is the French word for frog or toad, there are a few theories why the name was given to this game. One interesting fact is that the word "Crapaud" was a derogatory and insulting term used by the English speaking residents of Louisiana to generally describe the French Creole people and because they loved the game, the name of "Crapaud" stuck; another theory states that the French Creole people, looking very hunche-backed whilst playing the game, brought on the term.
Unfortunately, we haven't read that there is a third theory which combines the two first mentioned theories. The fact, for example, that the French Creole were hunch-backed whilst playing this popular game, came to lead others to call them toads as they concentrated over the Craps game. From thereon, one would imagine, that seeing so many people always hunch-back and gambling so much, actually encouraged others to relate the image of them to a toad and that perhaps the perceived distastefulness of the act of gambling encouraged them to do so in distaste. It almost seems like a classic example of 'which came first, the chicken or the egg'. Well, even if we can't decide, Craps did.
In all eccentric manner, Bernard de Marigny eventually named one of the streets of his New orleans development, Faubourg Marigny, as "Craps".
Playing Craps
In the game of Craps, players wager money against the casino on the outcome of one roll, or of a series of rolls of two dice. Craps is also played privately and is said to be popular among soldiers and other lay persons. Side bets are more frequently made during these private games, with one or several participants covering or "fading" bets against the dice.
Casino Etiquette for Craps
Here are some etiquette guidelines useful to know when playing Craps.

Hey Girl Don't Bother Me
The Tams
A "beach" music favorite, Atlanta's Tams were among the more popular up-tempo soul groups of the '60s, although they were never able to break Motown's pop stranglehold. Joseph Pope's gravelly voiced leads were their selling point. He was joined by his brother Charles, Robert Smith, Floyd Ashton, and Horace Key. They began on Swan in 1960, then landed their first hit with "Untie Me" for Arlen in 1962. It peaked at number 12 on the R&B charts (number 11 pop). They moved to ABC-Paramount the next year, where they remained until 1968. They scored their biggest hit in 1963 with "What Kind of Fool (Do You Think I Am)." But many soul fans regard 1968's "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy" as their ultimate hit, although it only reached number 26 on the R&B charts. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi

Coolibar SUNTECT® Fabric
ZnO SUNTECT® Our latest innovation: bamboo cotton embedded with micro-particles of zinc oxide for extraordinary comfort and dependable UPF 50+ sun protection. More about SUNTECT® sun protection >
I bought 3 of these blankets they are so great. Super soft, lightweight and amazing for sunny protection. I put it over my 4 month old in stroller or when I'm wearing him in Bjorn and he doesn't get any sun. Love love love
Bought blanket and sun hats for a FL trip because you can't put sunscreen on babies under 6 months this was the only solution I could find the fabric is wonderful it breaths well and protected I have now bought a total I six blankets and give them as baby gifts for summer babies. I also love the infant full body swim suits. Great company, great products!!!!
I bought two of these for my 3 month old to cover her in the car seat / stroller from the harsh Arizona sun. They are fantastic! Perfect size to block all the sun and quite soft. Wish I had bought these earlier instead of all the swaddle blankets I got hoping to block the sun.
I bought this blanket for the summer to cover my 8 month old at the beach. The blanket is so lightweight and soft, perfect for little ones at the beach. I have noticed my parents, sisters, and husband all taking the blanket and using it when in the sun as well. Very very happy with this purchase. Would recommend to everyone I know!
I bought a sun blanket for my 3 month old son. I use it everyday to cover the car seat, stoller and carrier. It is one of the most useful baby things I own. I will be purchasing the baby romper next.
I purchased a couple of these blankets for my newborn, and I use it ALL the time. We live in Hawaii and daily sun exposure is pretty much unavoidable. I used it for stroller rides, nursing cover, and a wrap over my carrier to keep my baby covered. It's stretchy so you can tie it, or even use it as a swaddle blanket. Now it's on my list for friends living out here as baby gifts! LOVE THEM!!!
I bought 3 of these blankets a few weeks ago and I am in love with them! I even bought one for my sister-in-law who is having a baby in August. We sit out on our balcony, my daughter in her swing, protected and cool with the blankets draped over her :) I highly recommend this blanket for anyone with summer babies!

CD (Item 590578) Fantasy/BGP (UK), 1976 — Condition: New Copy
A standout classic from trumpeter Luis Gasca – and a set that may well be the artists' most complete musical vision of the 70s! The group here is larger than on previous records, and Gasca's dropped a bit of his Latin roots in exchange for a soaring, slightly spiritual sound put together by arranger Don Menza – who's really at the top of his game here! There's a perfection and poise that's almost like CTI or Kudu at their best – almost a bit above the usual Fantasy Records session like this from the 70s, too! Other players include Bobby Hutcherson on vibes, Menza and Hadley Caliman on reeds, Patrice Rushen on keyboards, and Harvey Mason on some mighty nice drums – which makes for more than a bit of funk in the mix. Titles include the sweet vibes/Rhodes number "Kathy", the stepper "Sara", and the tracks "Visions", "The Way I Feel Sometimes", "Patrice", "Collage", and "Night People". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Purchased new! Got it home and began using it with few issues. Unit was extremely loud. Much louder than my other compressor which is much larger! Front feet were not level cousing the unit to wobble, (bent) The big problem didn't present it's self until using the compressor a couple of times. I began to notice black pieces of plastic all over the garage after use of the compressor. Investigation revealed that the fan had been apparantly installed inproperly and was contacting the shroud which was making the mess. The fan had been installed using th wrong hole of two that were available. It allowed the fan to contact the outer shroud which quickly destroyed the shroud and didn't do the fan any good either! I am now trying to find replacement parts for the thing so I can salvage the compressor! Sears does not recognize and model or parts numbers which are on the product. Frustrating!!!!

about 20hrs on compressor and motor burnt out safety switch did not work

Too bad most of the negative reviews were written after I bought this, otherwise I might not have bought mine. After two years of ownership and maybe 15-20 light duty uses, it no longer works. It still looks brand new because I keep all my tools in immaculate condition and dust free- so I don't understand why this broke in such a short period of time. Read reviews of all the affordable, non-"professional" air compressors from Sears- they are all terrible! you shouldn't have to spend a thousand dollars just to get a product that doesn't break.

I was able to pick this up on sale and i have had it work very well for me. I read all the reviews on here and I have to admit at first I was afraid to buy it because of all the bad reviews. But it turns out I got one heck of a deal with a good warranty to back it up because the item is discontinued. Looking at this compressor you might think that 3.8scfm is not alot (which I did at first) but I have come to find out that this compressor can handle all my tools when I am working on my jeep. It also is able to break nuts/ bolts lose on my jeep that I wouldn't have thought it could with a 3.8 scfm rating- which really surprised me. The compressor started up fine with no issues at all. The time that it took to fill the tank was very fast and had to recharge very few times while I would use it. It also has worked very well in the cold because my garage is not heated. Overall good working compressor with a great name to back it up.

Works great. Fills relatively fast and is so easy to move around. I have toted it to several locations even through the snow and it rolls super nice.

This is a good home compressor but do not expect it to do much more than blowing off parts or moving dust.

It appears, although I have not had this item long that it is well constructed, looks good, and appears to function well. I have not used it extensively but I am hopeful.. I will mention that this, like any other compressor needs to be prepped so the seals with hold..... I recommend strongly that you do this!!!!

Bought May 2011, used approx. 8-10 times then broke June 2012--piston shattered. Got it fixed with new piston kit $94 (out of warranty period of one year), used approx. 2 more times over next 91 days and broke again--same issue with piston -- it shattered. Warranty for fix is 90 days. I am not getting this fixed again, now I'm left with a $379 red paperweight. Will not buy any Craftsman power tools again--regular tools OK, but not power tools.

Turned it on and charger it up once. Used it the next day to blow something off. Left it on by accident, air ran down and it kicked on. Went out to garage to shut it off and all of a sudden I have air coming out of it. Turn it back on and its shorting out, popping my circuit breaker. It has two separate problems. Its going back tomorrow.

Yeesh. Tell you what I'll do instead: get me some flyers or a card, and I'll be happy to hand them to the brewers with a good word for the fest. I owe you for the help you gave us last year! - March 8, 2007 at 9:33 AM

Good idea golden domed pimp! It shouldn't be as difficult for the production breweries as it would be for brewpubs. Voodoo would rock...and maybe Sprague as well. I already asked Scott/East End and he was a no, for now. Keep pressing him!

Online schema changes with MySQL
New Scheme
Making online schema changes to your database can be tricky, but the right tools can help. We show how to change even the largest tables in an orderly and efficient manner.
From your smartphone to your banking institution, relational databases are everywhere. They store many kinds of data for us – and they store it in a specific, well-defined format. Unlike many of their newer "NoSQL" brethren, relational databases have a fixed schema – they don't accept arbitrary data. In theory, a smart designer will make entirely correct schema choices, which will then be put into production with no changes or alterations needed, because everything was perfect in the first place.
In practice, though, relational databases often go through many changes. For example, it is often found that mistakes were made in the initial schema. These mistakes need to be corrected and, at times, these corrections do not happen until long after the system is deployed. Other times, business needs change; even if the database was designed correctly in the beginning, it is often impossible to predict how a system will be used in the future.

Valentine's Day was so yesterday! Boo! We had a spontaneous "Post Valentine's Day" celebration at Le Reve Deli and Cafe a few days ago. I was with my friend, Jed, now tagged as my "Food Buddy" since we really enjoy playing the role of "Amateur Food Critics." The both of us enjoyed each other's company, despite being "single" and "unattached" as of the moment. Haha! Why not? At least we could talk to one another – not all alone in the corner of our rooms trying to have a conversation with the mirror for it to look like we're having one!

That's quiet an informative interview Jason, and covers a lot of good reasons why HTML5 is not ready from prime-time or overrated, etc. It's nice to see you have a passion for making efficient markup both regards to semantics and not consuming bandwidth.
That seems to be a dying art nowadays or certainly seems that way with the growing trends towards great blocks unwieldy JavaScript and code bloat that does litter a lot of modern sites.
Overall there were quite a few honest opinions in the interview, well done.

Heh. Though I often wonder at your replies to simple questions (recoding whole pages when someone doesn't understand why their h2's have the wrong color ) I admire the way you always explain why you do the things you do. Often it is really simple to say "do this and it will work" but you always tell people why to do "this".
Congrats and well deserved.
