Capitol View Commentary: Friday, June 10, 2011
By Pat Nolan, DVL Public Relations & Advertising
June 10, 2011
We are so pleased to have Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam as our guest on INSIDE POLITICS this week. While we had him as a guest on three occasions when he was a candidate last year, this is the first time he has joined us as our state's chief executive.
With the recent end of this year's session of the General Assembly, we have so many things to discuss with him I hope I can get most of it in.
You can see INSIDE POLITICS several times each weekend on the NEWSCHANNEL5 NETWORK. That includes Sunday morning at 5:00 a.m. on the main channel, WTVF-TV, NEWSCHANNEL5. You can also watch us on NEWSCHANNEL5 PLUS, which airs on Comcast & Charter Cable channels 250 as well as Channel 5's over-the-air digital channel 5.2.
Our air times on THE PLUS are 7:00 p.m. Friday night, 5:00 a.m. & 5:30 p.m. Saturday and 5:00 a.m. & 12:30 p.m. on Sunday.
You can also see excerpts of this and other previous INSIDE POLITICS shows here on www.newschannel5.com
This must have been the week to do polling about how President Barack Obama is doing.
And the consensus answer….not so good, at least compared to a few weeks ago.
All the recent national polling surveys I've seen (CNN/Opinion Research, Washington Post/ABC, CBS, Reuters/Ipsos) indicate that whatever positive bounce President Barack Obama received from the killing of Osama Bin Laden, it is now completely gone.
While the exact percentages vary, the President's job approval ratings are back down below 50% (in the high 40s) with his support numbers on how he's handling the economy and other related issues (the deficit, unemployment, high gas prices) even worse. In fact, in some polls, the worst he's ever had since he took office in early 2009.
To make matters even more difficult for the President, there is a report from CBS News (June 5) that chronic unemployment (those out of work for 6 months or more) now touches 6.2 million people or 45.1% of all unemployed workers in the nation. That's a higher percentage than during the Great Depression of the 1930s!
More misery according to the CBS report is that "more than 1 million of those long-term unemployed have run out of unemployment benefits, leaving them without the money to get new training, buy new clothes or even get to job interviews." No wonder at least one poll (CNN) shows a record 48% of those responding believe another Great Depression is likely to occur within the next year. If that opinion persists, we may (as we've done in the past) just convince ourselves into another major downturn.
Since Franklin Roosevelt in 1936, no President has been re-elected with overall unemployment numbers as high as they are now (9.1%) and the numbers for unemployment among teens for summer jobs and among blacks is much, much higher.
So how do the polls say the President is stacking up against his potential Republican field?
The results are mixed. The ABC poll (June 7) shows the President beating all of his rivals except Mitt Romney who leads the incumbent by 3 points (but still within the poll's margin of error). Meantime, as perhaps another sign that Romney may be becoming the GOP frontrunner, a new Rasmussen poll "shows 49% of likely…voters think Romney is qualified to be president…that's well above how voters view Romney's chief competitors in the race." That includes, according to the Rasmussen survey, Tim Pawlenty & Ron Paul (27%), Newt Gingrich (26%), Sarah Palin (she of Paul Revere fame), 23%, Michelle Bachman and John Huntsman (20%), and Herman Cain (18%). Some of these "qualified for President" numbers are better for these GOP challengers when asking among Republican voters alone, but Romney's number also improves to 66%.
Given some late-in-the-week developments that almost all of Newt Gingrich's campaign staff is quitting, he may not be long for the race, even though the former House Speaker vows to stay in. Will Texas Governor Rick Perry get in? And what would that do in terms of determining who will be the GOP frontrunner for President?
Right now it's pretty clear it's Romney who's in front. That's not only from polling, but the fact that he's the one being shot at politically in the media and by his opponents.
Take this article from the DAILY CALLER web site (June 10) that quotes Matt Kibbe of the Freedom Works group as saying "Tea Party activists may not show up at all to vote in the general election (November, 2012)…if Mitt Romney wins the Republican nomination for President." Citing Romney's flip-flop status on the issue of national health care, a key Tea Party issue, Kibbe is also quoted as saying; "I believe in redemption, but at some point you sort of give up. And we've given up on Mitt Romney."
Meantime the WALL STREET JOURNAL reports (June 10) that Romney plans to skip a major straw vote event coming up in Iowa, likely because he is concerned he can't win enough votes from the social conservatives in that key early caucus state (because he is Mormon?)
And, finally, there's another late-breaking story (gawker.com, Jim Newell, June 9) about Romney's recent comments that "I believe the world is getting warmer, and I believe humans have contributed to that." He didn't say he now believes in global warming but could that comment have the candidate explaining himself to GOP conservatives….again?
Getting back to the new national polls, there's a mixed message from the Reuters/Ipsos survey (June 8). It shows President Obama, despite his lower poll numbers, still "leads all potential Republican challengers by double-digits"…even Mitt Romney (51% to 38%), while he beats Palin by 23 points and Pawlenty by 19.
Even more confusing is another Reuters survey that shows Sarah Palin edging Romney among Republicans for the nomination, while another Quinnipiac poll shows Romney winning easily over the former Alaska governor. There are even some polls (CBS) that show large pluralities of Republicans don't even want Palin to run.
So how do you to figure all this out? Well, it's still early and surveying the public mood can be very tricky as the electorate may be tuned in at varying levels right now. Also some of these polls are among both registered voters and the general public (Reuters) while others are among likely voters, and that can clearly make a difference in the outcome. So can the mix of Democrats, Republicans and Independents being surveyed. One final hint, since only registered voters have the final say by actually casting their ballots, you should pay more attention to those surveys and a little less to the others in terms of predicting 2012.
So are we at war with Libya or what?
The new Defense Secretary-designate, Leon Panetta has used that word during his confirmation hearings.
So then why has the Obama administration ignored the War Powers Act and failed to go to Congress to explain and get authorization for its actions to conduct a bombing campaign (along with NATO) in that North African country in support of those trying to unseat long-time dictator Moammar Gadhafi?
Tennessee Senator Bob Corker wants some answers and he is sponsoring a bi-partisan joint resolution with Senator Jim Webb of Virginia to require "the administration to provide detailed justification of U.S. operations". The resolution also prohibits the use of any U.S. ground forces in Libya and "calls on the President to request authorization for the continuation of U.S. involvement…and…that Congress should fully debate such a request expediently."
The administration says it will be coming to Congress soon but there's nothing filed as of now.
The public opinion surveys I mentioned earlier show the Libya matter is at the bottom of the public's concerns these days. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are different. We've lost lots of troops there and we've been there for many years. So the public wants us out of those countries as soon as possible.
No Americans are dying in Libya and it's only been a few months since we started the bombing. So there seems to be no outrage among the public. Besides, Americans haven't liked Gadhafi for years.
But regardless of the polls, the engagement of our military forces is very important. The President and the Congress need to follow the law. Soon.
The economy is in flux, the country is deep in debt, our troops are fighting 3 or 4 different wars in the Middle East as the Arab world is in deep turmoil. But nothing gets the media (and cyberspace) going into overdrive like some good sex scandals.
Sure there's the John Edwards' "love child" case where the former Senator and Vice Presidential candidate faces possible prison time for using his campaign funds to hide the truth. But what is really making the Internet hum these days involves New York Democratic Congressman Anthony Weiner and his sexting scandal.
It is said that to err is human, but it usually takes a computer to really screw things up. Let me update that old saying as far as political sex scandals go. Now it takes some ridiculously juvenile use of social media to create a big mess.
Congressman Weiner first lied about his actions, saying his on line account had been hacked or that he had no idea whether what was shown in these messages (his private parts) actually belonged to him. Then when other instances and other women began to come forward, he finally fessed up and apologized, including to his wife (who is now expecting their first child).
But Weiner has refused to resign his post saying while what he did was inappropriate it was not illegal and has not impacted his ability to serve. I guess that must mean lying is now part of the job description inside the Beltway and elsewhere in politics. So far, many national Democrats are urging Weiner to go, but his New York constituents seem to support him, which may be another sign, as Jay Leno says that we get the government we deserve.
But Congressman Weiner is far from alone. There are a number of members of Congress, Governors, even a President (Bill Clinton), politicians from across the country and from both parties, who have been caught doing inappropriate things of a sexual nature in recent years. Some of the names include (Governors) Mark Sanford, Eliot Spitzer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, (Congressmen) Mark Foley, Eric Massa, (Senators) Larry Craig and David Vitter. When their exploits came to light, there was a lot of controversy and calls for resignation. Some left, but several toughed it out, and continued to serve, at least for a while. Senator Vitter is still serving and has even been re-elected I believe.
So despite what you've heard from both parties, neither side has a monopoly on sin or sainthood. But if you're looking for love and companionship (outside your spouse) in Washington and elsewhere in politics, former President Harry Truman had it right many years ago when he said you are better off getting a dog.
When I spoke with Governor Haslam this week on INSIDE POLITICS, he was bragging about how his first operating budget got unanimous approval from members of the General Assembly.
From all indications Metro's operating budget is heading for similar approval next week from the Metro Council (although maybe not unanimous). This is not a new thing for Mayor Karl Dean. His last few budgets have been approved early and with little controversy or money-moving.
I am told the biggest remaining obstacles for the city reaching a final budget is finding a couple of million dollars for Metro schools to cover the local costs of the pay raise for teachers approved by the state. There also could be some push back by some council members in approving the annual tourism-related funding for the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce. That comes from some council members still unhappy with the strong role the Chamber played in urging the city to build the new Music City Centre now well under construction downtown. Chances are efforts to block or significantly cut the Chamber's funding won't be successful.
After three years of tough times due to the flagging economy and the uncertainty following the floods of May 2010, Music City is reclaiming its rightful title this weekend as the Music Capital of the nation, if not the world. Both the CMA Music Festival and Bonnaroo are attracting tens of thousands of tourists to the Nashville (and Manchester) area.
With the roads jammed with cars and hotel rooms at a premium, let's hope (despite the heat) our visitors have a great time and spend lots of money to help the local economy (we sure can use it)!
Maybe it will help boost the growth of tourism jobs. THE NASHVILLE BUSINESS JOURNAL (June 8) reports that we've "fared poorly in the growth of tourism jobs over the last three years" having lost "3,100 leisure and hospitality jobs since April, 2008" according to a new analysis by the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics. The study says we've haven't lost as many jobs in this area as "Chicago (15,900), Detroit (15,100), Los Angeles (13,000) and Las Vegas (12,200)." But we did lose ground to other competitors who added jobs including "Boston (up 9,700 jobs), Houston (up 7,000), New Orleans (up 6,700), Orlando (up 5,900) and Austin (up 5,100)."
While it is not related to tourism, there is some employment news to celebrate that a high-tech, smart phone company is bringing up to 900 new jobs to downtown Nashville over the next 5 years. IQT, Inc. is a Canadian firm which has chosen Nashville to be its American headquarters along with its first U.S. customer relationship and technical services center. It is bringing some high-paying, high tech jobs, which they will begin filling almost immediately assuming Metro and state officials follow through with the incentive packages being offered.
This appears to be the largest single commitment of new jobs to the Central Business District since Bell South consolidated here and built the Batman building the back in the early 1990s. What makes these jobs even better is they will be working 24/7 in the downtown area, hopefully increasing our downtown population and the ongoing bustle and vitality of the area.
And how precious are creating or attracting new jobs these days? As a part of his ongoing reorganization of the state's department of Economic & Community Development (which we discuss with him on INSIDE POLITICS), Governor Haslam has named new regional directors that (according to an ECD news release) "will serve as the primary point-of-contact for in-state companies seeking government assistance with expansion or with accessing state service."
Eight of the nine new regional directors were announced, only the one from Southeast Tennessee (the Chattanooga area) was not. That led to a headline in the Chattanooga newspaper's on-line story by Andy Sher (June 9) that read "Southeast Tennessee shunned so far on economic development picks."Ouch!
State officials are quick to react telling Sher in his story that "Southeast Tennesseans…are not being forgotten" as they working to settle "…on a candidate (who) is the right fit for the position."
The Governor told me the real challenge in Tennessee is attracting jobs to rural areas, not cities like Chattanooga (remember VW). But many rural officials are already unhappy with the Governor's ECD re-organization because it is eliminating many ECD staffers who provided planning services for them which they cannot duplicate locally. The Governor says he understands their concern but perhaps it is time for them to do like many other counties and find a way to provide planning services at their own expense rather than have state taxpayers handle it.
Moving back to Nashville, music lovers may be concerned as they see and hear recent news stories that The Musicians Hall of Fame may not relocating and staying here. The Hall was uprooted by construction of the Music City Centre and its future looked bleak for a while. But then there was an apparent deal between Metro and Hall of Fame officials to locate such a facility in the exhibition space in the lower level of the old Municipal Auditorium.
Now that move has hit a snag over lease details, including a reported offer by Metro (now apparently withdrawn) to provide the space for just $10 a year!
$10 bucks a year would be quite a deal. Maybe it's too good a deal given the financial struggles of the Auditorium over the years. Plus there would be the need to find a new place for some of the other local shows that use the downstairs part of the Auditorium for their shows and exhibitions each year (shades of the Fairgrounds?).
It appears the city's Auditorium Commission is now getting directly involved in the negotiations (wonder why they weren't in the first place?) Hopefully something can be worked out. Losing this potential amenity, a Musicians Hall of Fame (of all things) to another city like Austin, TX (who is rumored to be interested) would be a real shame and something of a blemish on our reputation as Music city.
But the city shouldn't give things away either. Maybe a more transparent and coordinated negotiation strategy might help.
Metro government is losing two of its best leaders with the announced retirements of Metro Library Director Donna Nicely and Metro Clerk Marilyn Swing. Both will be difficult to replace.
As I mentioned in last week's column, Donna Nicely has taken this city's libraries to a world-class level over the past decade, including gaining national honors for the system last year and being recognized at the White House. Replacing her in normal times would be a test, but coming on board during these uncertain times for government spending and the future of libraries will be a true challenge for someone.
Marilyn Swing has been the soul of stability and competence since she succeeded her mentor Ruth Judd as Metro Clerk some years ago. The Clerk's office keeps a number of important city records, including acting as the recorder of votes and other actions by the Metro Council. In working with her as a reporter, and occasionally as a lobbyist and public relations professional, she and her staff have always been so easy to work with in quickly providing information and documents.
Frankly, I have always been in awe of how she has kept such a calm demeanor (and a straight face) so many nights sitting in front of the Council during its meetings (and on live TV no less). They don't call those sessions, both affectionately and accurately, "Tuesday Night Live" for nothing. It can get pretty wild and sometimes hilarious. But Marilyn has always acted in a most professional manner. I will miss that, and miss both her and Donna
Remember when the Metro Council ordered a master plan be created to outline the future of the controversial State Fairgrounds?
Well that effort may have hit a temporary roadblock. A top Metro official has told me the city received NO responses for proposals from planning groups to create such a plan. I guess the whole Fairgrounds may be just too hot politically for even professional planning groups to fool with, especially to conduct the necessary public meetings to gather input and then outline the final recommendations of a master plan.
And then there's the Metro charter amendment, now on the August 4th ballot, to keep the Fairgrounds just like it is, without a 2/3 vote of the Metro Council. So far, no law suit has been filed to stop a vote. But George Barrett, the lawyer who represents Neighbors for Progress, a neighborhood group near the Fairgrounds which supports Mayor Dean's efforts to redevelop the land, has filed a complaint with Nashville District Attorney Torry Johnson. Barrett is alleging "illegal conduct," including possible felonies and misdemeanors in how the public petitions to call for the race were gathered. Barrett wants an investigation by the D.A. and for the charter amendment to be removed from the ballot, at least in the interim.
The Metro Election Commission looked into this matter, and while throwing some of the petitions out, still ruled there were more than enough legitimate names submitted to call for the referendum. Outgoing Metro Councilman Jamie Hollin, who represents the Save Our Fairgrounds group that organized this petition drive, told THE CITY PAPER (June 6) the complaints filed by Barrett and Neighbors for Progress are nothing "more than a last-ditch effort by the governing to keep the governing from being heard on August 4. If their position had any merit they'd file a lawsuit…instead they choose to engage in insidious attacks."
So that leaves the matter up to D.A. Johnson. It is the second Metro political hot potato (Metro Criminal Court Clerk David Torrence's activities) dropped in his lap recently. He has launched a full investigation into the Torrence matter. As for the Fairgrounds, whatever he does, he will have to act quickly, as early voting begins in just over a month (July 15).

Brantley Gilbert can afford pretty much any car he wants these days, so it may surprise you to learn he's a little upset about a guy wanting him to pay $12,000 for a vintage 1968 Mercury Cougar. That's because Brantley sold that same car to the guy six or seven years ago for just $4,000.
At the time, Brantley was really hard up for the cash. He says, "We went flat broke and needed some equipment. We got rained on and we didn't have insurance on anything."
So even though Brantley loved the Cougar, he sold it. At the time, the buyer told him he could buy it back from him when he got the $4,000, but of course, now that Brantley's a country star, the guy's seeing dollar signs and wants to take advantage of the situation.
Though he could just pay the guy $12,000 and be done with the whole transaction, it's the principle of the thing. As Brantley says, "I am not going to pay him that much! He's going to have to come down."
As he waits to see what happens with the Cougar, Brantley will be riding his tour bus to get to his shows in Iowa and Illinois this weekend.

By Hunter Garrahan McIntyre, Spartan Pro Team
As a Spartan pro team athlete, the great outdoors are a fundamental part of the training and success for any race that I compete in. I see far to many people that associate fitness with a membership at a the local gym. The old school brawny man methods are seemingly long gone and being replaced with group classes and rows of treadmills. But it doesn't require any machines or even four walls of a building to get fit, it just takes some creativity.
The truth of the matter is, all you need is a good pair of sneakers and open mind to make the outdoors the answer to all of your health club needs. I am currently writing this article after spending a few days at Spartan HQ where I had a first hand experience with backyard fitness! For starters running outside is a far better than what you would gain from using a treadmill, a more natural stride combined with the constant variation of terrain makes a strong all around runner.
Dumbbells and barbells can quickly be replaced with rocks, stumps and other heavy objects one might be able to find in your garage. Some of the strongest men and women in the world train with real world objects like atlas stones to set world records in more conventional strength training events.
Another great way to experience a good workout is yard work! As a said early I spent a few days at the Spartan "farm club" digging, lifting boulders and chopping wood. A few chores in the back yard done with the right intensity will burn up to or more calories than you could achieve on an elliptical. These movements will also prove build a much more functional and all around better performing athlete than more simple machine movements one might find inside your local gym.
In closing, if you want to get in shape anywhere you look can be a great start whether it be a gym or your back yard. And don't
forget the Spartan FREE Workouts of the Day (WOD). Delivered daily to your inbox, they are a great way to stay on top of your training. Sign up HERE.
Don't be shy of climbing a tree or two in the process because making the world your play ground is what this experience is all about. Make it a goal to take on a new obstacle every day such as lifting a 200 boulder or raking up that stubborn pile of leaves that never seems to blow into the neighbor's yard. Sure there may be a few cuts and bruises along the way but that's all in the day of a life true Spartan.
Ready to find your Spartan finish line? Sign up HERE today.
[Editor's Note: Hunter McIntyre, 24, is a member of the Spartan Pro Team. This past weekend he took the top spot at the Pennsylvania Spartan Sprint held on July 13, 2013. No stranger to the podium, it was a fantastic finish with a time of 41:53. Congratulations, Hunter!]

Desktop computers and laptops may soon be things of the past. Tablets are becoming increasingly popular. They're highly portable and compact. And they can benefit the person on-the-go.
Today's technology has made personal tablets more affordable and more portable than ever. And it's making an impact on the laptop and personal computer market."It's that convenience of having that technology everywhere you want to go. And tablets tend to do that a little better than laptops," says Mike Martine, Best Buy.The handheld devices can now run software that was once reserved for PCs, including Microsoft Office. And several accessories are available to help give your tablet a more PC-feel. But Martine says tablets aren't for everybody. It all depends on what you plan to use it for. "If you're a hardcore gamer, I'd still recommend either a laptop or a desktop, because they still have the bigger processor and more ram. So, those games like Diablo III or any of those fancy games, you're going to be able to handle. Whereas on a tablet, if you're just doing basic word processing on the go or internet browsing everywhere you want to be, something like a tablet is going to have that portability versus laptops and PCs [that] are going to have more of the performance factors in them," says Martine.It may not be long before tablets catch up to their ancestors. But the devices have a little competition of their own."A lot of the phones can do a lot of the things a tablet can do. And they're getting into those sizes with the Note III, that it can pretty much be your tablet if you want it to," says Martine.
Martine anticipates some new tablets will be released this fall. And he reminds shoppers to choose their tablet wisely. Because you generally get what you pay for.

|ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Epinotia aporema (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is an important pest of legume crops in South America. Epinotia aporema granulovirus (EpapGV) is a baculovirus that causes a polyorganotropic infection in the host larva. Its high pathogenicity and host specificity make EpapGV an excellent candidate to be used as a biological control agent. RESULTS: The genome of Epinotia aporema granulovirus (EpapGV) was sequenced and analyzed. Its circular double-stranded DNA genome is 119,082 bp in length and codes for 133 putative genes. It contains the 31 baculovirus core genes and a set of 19 genes that are GV exclusive. Seventeen ORFs were unique to EpapGV in comparison with other baculoviruses. Of these, 16 found no homologues in GenBank, and one encoded a thymidylate kinase. Analysis of nucleotide sequence repeats revealed the presence of 16 homologous regions (hrs) interspersed throughout the genome. Each hr was characterized by the presence of 1 to 3 clustered imperfect palindromes which are similar to previously described palindromes of tortricid-specific GVs. Also, one of the hrs (hr4) has flanking sequences suggestive of a putative non-hr ori. Interestingly, two more complex hrs were found in opposite loci, dividing the circular dsDNA genome in two halves. Gene synteny maps showed the great colinearity of sequenced GVs, being EpapGV the most dissimilar as it has a 20 kb-long gene block inversion. Phylogenetic study performed with 31 core genes of 58 baculoviral genomes suggests that EpapGV is the baculovirus isolate closest to the putative common ancestor of tortricid specific betabaculoviruses. CONCLUSIONS: This study, along with previous characterization of EpapGV infection, is useful for the better understanding of the pathology caused by this virus and its potential utilization as a bioinsecticide.

Before automakers started equipping cars with all sorts of blinking lights and beeping telltales, there were still ways to mitigate blind spots, keep your following distance consistent, and generally avoid accidents. Of course, nobody is going to deny that the public at large seems only mildly ...
There have been many inventions in the last few years in order to reduce accidents due to that age-old hazard, the blind spot. Some solutions, like the electric systems on some higher-end brands like Volvo, Mercedes-Benz and Buick, are rather high-tech and probably prove quite useful. Still, ...

Kidney stones were once thought of as an adult diagnosis. The truth is that kidney stones in the pediatric population have been on the rise for the past few decades. Our Division of Urology used to treat just a handful of children with kidney stones a year, but today we are diagnosing, managing and treating children with kidney stones daily. Each year, our Pediatric Kidney Stone Center treats nearly 300 patients with kidney stones.
Diet, genetics and life-style can all play a lead role in the development of kidney stones. Many families are unfamiliar and uncomfortable with their child's diagnosis of a kidney stone. We are committed to educating families about the diagnosis and tailoring a management plan specific to each patient. We have an experienced surgical staff and a state-of-art approach using minimally invasive surgery (MIS) whenever surgical intervention is needed. Our outpatient management team helps families manage active stone disease and prevent stone recurrence.
Normally, urine contains many dissolved materials. At times, some materials may become concentrated in the urine and form solid crystals. These crystals can lead to the development of stones. Most stones contain calcium, specifically, calcium oxalate. Other types of stones contain things such as calcium phosphate, uric acid, cystine and struvite.
Several risk factors play major roles in stone formation:
Once stones form in the urinary tract, they often grow over time and may move within the kidney. Some stones may be washed out of the kidney by urine flow and end up trapped within the ureter. Stones usually begin causing symptoms when they block the outflow of the urine to the bladder.
Symptoms of an obstructing stone can vary. Most often, patients will complain of pain in their sides (flank). This pain may also move toward the front of the abdomen or to the groin area.
A simple X-ray of the abdomen is sometimes enough to pinpoint a stone in the area of the kidneys or ureters. A renal bladder ultrasound (RBUS) may be ordered to help find a stone and look for any signs of blockage. If the X-ray film or RBUS does not provide enough information to make a diagnosis, an abdominal/pelvic CT scan will be done. This test can detect almost all types of urinary stones.
These tests give your urologist information about the size, location and number of stones that are causing the symptoms. This allows your physician to choose the best treatments.
To choose the best treatment for your child, your doctor will consider the size of the stone, the number of stones and their location. Most small stones can pass on their own. We may ask your child to 'strain' his urine with a special filter so we can send the stone for testing, if necessary, to determine what kind of stone it is.
Surgery may be needed if a stone:
Although each person is different, there is about a 50 percent chance of having another stone within the next five years. Your child may be asked to collect urine for 24 hours after a stone has passed or been removed to measure urine volume and levels of acidity, calcium, sodium, uric acid, oxalate, citrate and creatinine. This information will be used to determine the cause of the stone. Your child may be asked to have a blood test to help understand the reason her body is forming stones.
The diagnosis, management and treatment of stones is truly multi-factorial. For this reason we created the Pediatric Kidney Stone Center, a sub-division within the Division of Urology that is solely dedicated to the management of kidney stones. Kerry Ashcroft, pediatric nurse practitioner, leads the Pediatric Kidney Stone Center along with a dedicated nursing and scheduling team. We also work very closely with our colleagues in Nephrology (doctors who focus on kidney health) and Metabolism (doctors who focus on genetic disorders that affect the way the chemical reactions happen in the body) to be sure that all factors that may affect a child's stone disease are addressed.

There's a very good restaurant with wonderful garden, nice meal and kind service in the glass factory island. You can't miss a visit to Murano and a rest in this place where you don't feel a tourist but a local inhabitant.

A very nice place near Rialto Bridge and Sab Marco Square is Ristorante Sabrina! I was there with a group of 55 persons and we had a fish menu (starter, main corse, a nice tiramisu in the end, wather and wine) all in 14 eur. Food was fresh and nice cooked, service was exceptional! All 55 was very happy about the agency choice!

I read the reviews to date on this site and noted that a few of you have tried Osteria Oliva Nera and simply loved it! We took the advice and dined for lunch to see what all the excitement was about. Indeed, the food was AMAZING!!! The mixed seafood appetizer has a starter offered 8 different tasty selections to get you craving for more. We ordered the Venetian style cuttlefish, turbo filet and another pasta dish and all three knocked our socks off! You must check this place out if you are in Venice and will not be disappointed. It's located on Castello 3417 (not that far from Plaza San Marco) and I strongly advise on reservations.

We started with a beautiful drink and delicious bruschetta (on the house), then my husband had a great pasta dish and I had the best spaghetti dish I had in Venice (pasta al pomodoro) The waiter was the sweetest waiter we ever met (he was half venetian, half tunisian) We will go back, definitely!

On my last visit to Venice in early June, I paid a visit to Caffe Quadri because I had been told that the Alajmo brothers of Le Calandre had taken over. The upstairs restaurant is only fine-dining restaurant in St. Mark's Square and has incredible views of the campanile and the facade of the church, especially at night. Even if Massimliano is not in the kitchen (he is still at the helm of Le Calandre), the food is his - light and flavorful expressions of traditional Italian dishes. The Cappuccino of the Lagoon was to die for, as were the risotto with baby shrimp and the chef's play on fegato alla Veneziana, guinea hen breast with a liver sauce. The menu, with prices, is available on the restaurant's website: www.caffequadri.it

Always good to see other people's recommendations, but I don't see mention of Antiche Carampane, Vino da Gigio, Fiaschetteria Toscana, Testiere, Anice Stellato or Da Marisa, for instance, each in it's way special. Either way,if you go to Venice, you must, must, MUST buy Michela Scibilia's delightful'Osterie e Dintorni'. A personal view, maybe, but unpretentious and accurate it will spare you all those expensive tourist rip-offs your hotel may try to send you to (if it's not in there, maybe don't bother)and is worth its weight in gold. Simply one of the best restaurant guides to ANY city (ask any one who's bought one!)....

Ristorante Al Covo, Castello 3968 was truly a dining experience. On my recent trip to Venice in September, 2010, I dined with five friends at Al Covo. It came highlighly recommended by friends from New York and it was not a disappointment. The service and the food were both excellent. The local seafood dishes and even their play on an American Hamburger done Venetian style were fabulous. Check it out if you are lucky enough to get an opportunity to visit this wonderful city.

It's hard to "find" a nice place to eat in Venice but Lineadombra was really great. Though being expensive the ambiance and sea-food were truely good. I akso recommend a small resto in Rialto, forgot the name but close to the bridge. Keep away from the restaurants where the salesmen stand and try to pull you in, they're too expensive to be!

Steer clear of Da Ivo. Their signature dish, risotto of cuttlefish in its own ink, was nice, but why must a minimum of two people order it? This rule applied to many of the dishes on the menu.
A bland steak Voronoff, easily duplicated at home, plated with overboiled carrots and green beans, was returned, and taken off the bill with no apologies (or surprise) from the blank-faced server.
We are used to paying more for decent food, but the entrees averaged 45 euro, and the dishes were the worst we had in a 2-week trip through central/northern Italy.

I would like to third the recommendation for Al Paradiso on Calle del Paradiso near the Rialto. We stumbled onto this place hidden on a small street and had the best Spaghetti Carbonara I have ever had. And we tried this everywhere. We went back for our last night in Venice and were not disappointed. The other food was also great.

La Remer...you will be amazed, for it is not visited by ANY tourists! It is owned by a German-Irish couple who have left Ireland for Venice...it is always packed with locals, and has a paino tucked in the back at which local pianists play everything from classical to pop to jazz to sing-a-long! The atmosphere is best described as raucous...dinner for two with wine is affordably priced at 80-120 euro. So, you ask, where is La Remer?? For that, you must ask the locals...for no other way will this place be kept the secret it should be, only 50 feet from one of Venice's busiest streets, yet nearly on the Grand Canal! Best wishes in finding a place that is well worth the effort! Tali Arik

Sustainability in WKU Residence Halls
Big Red has gone green at WKU, and the residence halls are no exception! Housing and Residence Life encourages all residents to engage in sustainable practices and opportunities, from simply remembering to turn off the lights and unplug cords, to going head to head with their neighbors and other universities in a competition to see who can conserve the most energy.
The Building Dashboard
The Building Dashboard was initially implemented so students can easily view and track their residence hall's energy usage so residents can monitor their hall's usage and take part in the effort in reducing WKU's energy use. Residence halls can compete against one another during special energy reduction programs to win prizes. Turn off your lights and shoot for the gold!
WKU Energy Kiosk
The WKU Office of Sustainability has partnered with Johnson Controls to implement the WKU Energy Kiosk. WKU students and staff can see WKU's energy use all across campus, from residence halls to academic buildings.
Sustainability Initiatives
Housing and Residence Life offers several opportunities for students to participate in sustainability initiatives. Each year students in all residence halls compete in "Reduce Your Use" to see which building can use the least amount of energy! Winning halls celebrate their victories in style with an ice cream party with WKU President, Gary Ransdell!
At the end of every academic year, "Lighten Your Load" allows students to donate unwanted items so they don't end up in a landfill. In 2013, students donated a total of 5,778 items, and 1,042 lbs of food. All items and food were donated to the Housing Authority of Bowling Green to assist the approximately 30 families they serve.
With everyone's help, we can make WKU, and the world, more than just a place to live!

If you have $100 million that is!
Keywords: sarah silverman, mitt romney, sheldon adelson
Sarah Silverman wants to scissor. Not just with anyone though…and technically not with a lesbian either.
Sarah is on the hunt for Sheldon Adelson, one of the countries wealthiest men and a republican who has already pledged $100 million to Mitt Romney's presidential campaign and swore to pump as much money as he needs to in order to beat out Obama. (Can we say 'nutso'?)
Sarah caught wind of the situation and couldn't believe it. So, she came up with a new, even better proposal for Sneaky Sheldon…
Sarah has even set up an amazing website www.ScissorSheldon.com – where you can get awesome updates on the unethical-ness that is our countries electoral process…like
1) He's totally open about buying elections. He said he's "against very wealthy people attempting to or influencing elections. But as long as it's doable I'm going to do it."
2) He's willing to do "whatever it takes" to defeat Obama including "limitless" donations to Romney's campaign.
Help Sarah scissor Sheldon today and fight the good fight, America!

Westfalia's software works as WMS and WCS for both automated and conventional facilities
January 23, 2013 - MMH Editorial
Westfalia (Booth 1236) has enhanced its Savanna.NET warehouse management software (WMS) over the past two years to get "SMART"—an acronym that encompasses system monitoring, reporting and troubleshooting, said Dave Williams, director of software development.
"The software can act as a WMS, a warehouse control system (WCS), or both," noted Williams. "Additionally, the same system controls both automated and conventional warehouses—eliminating the need to learn multiple interfaces."
With Web-based, remote monitoring and access to the system's advanced reporting functions, managers can pull a variety of datasets for comparative analysis across shifts, timeframes, SKUs, equipment and different facilities in multiple locations. "For further customization, a company can even drag-and-drop their own reporting requirements directly into the system for a custom view of the warehouse," he said.
Speaking of views of the warehouse, Williams also demonstrated a 3D, 360-degree navigable view of a facility floor that shows both conventional and automated equipment. Users can add or subtract layers to hone in on the exact degree of detail required. "Should an error occur on the floor, that area will be highlighted visually in this view," he said.
For users who are more comfortable with metrics, data can be displayed in an intuitive spreadsheet format, or graphically in charts and tables.
We are getting more requests from our customers to help them manage and analyze their data—not so much for a review of past trends, but more as a means for predictive analysis," Williams added. "Particularly, once they've integrated more automation in their process, they look for new ways to manage their warehouse more efficiently than ever before. Savanna.NET's functionality helps achieve those goals."

Today's Front Pages Analysis
All the news that's fit to print barely fits
The front page is only so big, yet today's pages managed to make room for three significant stories — the first full day of the pope's U.S. visit, a Democratic debate and a U.S. Supreme Court ruling upholding execution by lethal injection.
Which story took the lead depended upon proximity.
In Washington, Pope Benedict XVI appeared at the White House and addressed American cardinals. The Washington Post pictured Benedict in a sea of well-wishers and digital cameras: "Multitudes Gather for a Glimpse Or, Perhaps, a Touch of the Hand." The Examiner of Washington focused on his speech at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception: "Benedict: Child sex scandal 'badly handled.'"
In Philadelphia, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama participated in the 21st debate of the presidential campaign. The Inquirer described "A Bitter Aftertaste" and, in an analysis, said, "Obama had the tougher night." The Philadelphia Daily News pictured smiling candidates and asked: "Who'll have the Last Laugh?"
USA Today reported that several states are ready to resume executions after a Supreme Court decision upholding lethal injection. In one of them, Texas, the Houston Chronicle said: "6 from area likely among first to die." The case originated in Kentucky, where The Courier-Journal of Louisville said, "Court: Punishment isn't cruel, unusual." The Tennessean of Nashville broke out "What Happened," "Tenn. Impact" and "What's Next."
The Chicago Tribune managed to feature today's three big stories — and make room for an enterprise story after the newspaper tested local water and found drugs and chemicals.
But no story offered as much color as Pope Benedict's Washington events, which continue today. The Boston Globe called it "pomp and substance," and The Orange County (Calif.) Register said, "Revelry, Reproach." Benedict's 81st birthday was noted in La Repubblica in Rome, and a photo with President Bush appeared on Die Welt in the pope's native Germany. The Providence (R.I.) Journal wrote about its bishop's surreal experience at the papal gathering. The Religion Newswriters Association estimates that 500 people across the U.S. write about religion in the general news media. Among them is Ann Rodgers, who broke from the pack in her reporting for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: "Pope wants a spark / Tells U.S. bishops to make Masses lively to keep flock."

-- Robert Preidt
MONDAY, Aug. 8 (HealthDay News) -- The most effective treatment
for the nighttime breathing disorder known as obstructive sleep
apnea is the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine,
according to a new report.
A CPAP machine pumps air through a mask while the patient
sleeps. This treatment is highly effective in improving sleep and
reducing symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea, according to the
review of available evidence.
However, side effects such as dry nose and mouth, nosebleeds,
chest discomfort and feeling trapped can cause patients to abandon
CPAP treatment, noted the authors of the report, which was funded
by the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).
One expert called the report's findings "valuable."
"CPAP is known to be the most effective way to treat sleep apnea, but compliance is a big issue," said Dr. Linda Dahl, an Ear, Nose & Throat specialist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. "It can be uncomfortable and difficult to use. Also, younger patients do not want the stigma of using it. Oral appliances are very helpful for certain types of sleep apnea, but they can be costly and are usually not covered by insurance."
Dahl, who was not involved in the new report, added that "there
are also surgical treatments available. They are often not
curative, but they do play a role in sleep apnea treatment. For
example, if a patient has nasal obstruction and cannot tolerate
CPAP, nasal surgery can open the nose so they can tolerate the CPAP
The report also found that one other treatment -- a mouthpiece
called a mandibular advancement device -- can be highly effective
for sleep apnea patients. The device moves the jaw forward and
keeps the airway open.
This treatment is often used if patients can't tolerate the CPAP
machine, but potential side effects of the mandibular advancement
device include loose or damaged teeth, the report noted.
While weight loss and surgery to clear airway blockage may also
effectively treat sleep apnea, the evidence behind these treatments
isn't as strong, according to the team from the Tufts Medical
Center Evidence-Based Practice Center, which prepared the
"The bottom line is that every patient is an individual," Dahl said. "So it is important to know all of the possible treatment options when deciding what will work best. Unfortunately, sleep apnea is mutifactorial, so there is no magic treatment."
The new report, along with companion guides for consumers and
medical professionals that summarize the latest evidence for
treating obstructive sleep apnea, are available on the AHRQ
About 12 million Americans are known to have obstructive sleep
apnea, and it's likely that millions more are undiagnosed,
according to the AHRQ. The condition, caused by the repeated
collapse and blockage of the upper airway during sleep, stops
breathing many times through the night.
Obstructive sleep apnea can lead to high blood pressure, heart
disease, diabetes and increased risk of accidents because of
daytime fatigue.
"Obstructive sleep apnea is a frustrating and debilitating condition for so many Americans, and millions of people don't even know they have it. The resultant poor sleep and daytime sleepiness can lead to work-related or driving accidents," AHRQ director Dr. Carolyn M. Clancy said in an agency news release. "These guides and this new report will help patients and their doctors understand what treatment options might be best for them."

The U.S. National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute has more
sleep apnea treatments.

An unlikely plant may become Tennessee's newest cash crop as local farmers may soon find some economic hope in hemp.
It's been illegal to grow hemp in the United States for close to 60 years, but that could soon be changing.
In the plant world, marijuana and hemp are cousins - both born from the same species cannabis - but used in very different ways.
Hemp, most notably, is an ingredient in oils and fuels and can be woven into clothing, rope and paper.
Some controversy exists because the hemp plant looks like the marijuana plant, but smoking it would not produce any sort of high.
Kentucky recently legalized hemp farming, and now at least one Tennessee legislator wants to do it here.
The Knoxville News Sentinel reported Republican Sen. Frank Niceley of Strawberry Plains is drafting a bill with Republican Rep. Andy Holt of Dresden, and they plan to introduce the measure in next year's legislative session.
Niceley said Kentucky and six other states have passed measures legalizing hemp even though federal law prohibits it. Nicely said there also is support for changing federal laws, notably from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Rand Paul, both from Kentucky.
Hemp is a money maker, is used in hundreds of products and is a $500 million yearly import to the United States.
Mike Hendley's Springfield family farm has been growing tobacco for generations, and he says hemp would be an easy sale for his fellow farmers.
"Yeah, I think it's something they would try. You know, farmers, if you say they can make money at it, they're gonna try," Hendley said.
Tobacco farmers these days often rely on other crops, including alfalfa hay and strawberries, just to survive. So, hemp would get a close look.
"Well, I'd have to see exactly what's involved in it. Don't know much about it now, but I'd learn," Hendley said.
Niceley said introducing the measure in the Tennessee Legislature would "put pressure on Congress" to repeal its prohibition on growing the plant.

Lewis The third-seeded Elizabethtown-Lewis Lions scored an 8-0 win against the Wells Indians in the opening round of the Section VII/Class D boys soccer tournament, setting up the third meeting of the season between them and second-seeded Chazy Eagles, who beat their namesakes from Westport by an 11-0 score.
For the Lions, Hunter Mowery scored two goals and directed a third toward net on an indirect kick that resulted in a Wells own goal, along with assisting on two spectacular goals scored by Connor Apthorp.
"The first one, I was just trying to get a foot on it," Apthorp said. "On the second one, I was at the right place at the right time. Our teams prepared well for this game and we came out to win and did just that."
"We came out excited and ready to go," Lions head coach Paul Buehler said. "They didn't take this game lightly and we executed well."
Brody Hooper, Tyler White and Patrick Philips also scored for the Lions.
For Chazy, Josh Barriere, Brandon Laurin, Nolan Rogers and Hunter Dominy all scored two goals in the 11-0 victory over Westport, giving the defending state champions a 32-0 edge in goals over three contests.
In the top half of the bracket, the Willsboro Warriors will not be playing Division III champion Schroon Lake, as they were ousted by the fifth-seeded Minerva/Newcomb by a 4-3 score.
Class D girls
The Westport varsity girls soccer team had home-field advantage for the second time against Keene, and were able to score a win in a penalty kick shootout in the opening round of the Section VII/Class D tournament Oct. 27.
The third-seeded Eagles (11-2-0) scored in the first minute of the game, as Delany Sears tallied her ninth goal of the season on the first assist of the season for Emily Rascoe.

The Bird cruised over the pro-migrant march along Grand Avenue, half expecting to see KFYI-AM 550 squawk-jock Brian James' head on the prong of a long, sharp rake at the front of the crowd. The demonstration, which drew at least 100,000 people, was coordinated as part of a nationwide "day of action" aimed at pressuring Congress to pass immigration laws that would allow some 12 million undocumented immigrants already in the United States to get legal. And this proactive pigeon knows it isn't alone in wishing that our Mr. James had been the trussed-up grand marshal, after it read a transcript of James' recent let's-just-shoot-illegal-aliens manifesto.
It seems that on a March 8 installment of 550's 8 p.m. bile-fest, James, an occasional fill-in host at the station, hocked up the snot-ball that illegals trying to make it over the border should be shot on sight. This, James shared with listeners (most of whom must have agreed with him; more on that later), would be so much cheaper than building a wall along the border, and a lot more fun, too.
"Has anybody done any figures on what a wall like that will cost?" James queried his audience that night. "For that same amount of money, how many bullets can you buy? . . . I mean, I'm sorry, if you're coming illegally and there are individuals from terrorist states making their way into my stinking backyard, I don't want 'em put on a bus and taken out of here. I would like to see a nice, you know, 223-rounds shot from a high post somewhere and leave 'em out there. Pull out their ID if they've got any, call their next of kin and say, 'Oops, sorry. They tried to cross illegally.'"
What a brilliant idea! Somebody should nominate this smack-talkin' Heinstein for the Nobel Prize.
And his bosses over at KFYI may nominate him for just such an award. They believe that Latinos who were offended by his remarks are just a gaggle of silly geese.
"When you have a station that addresses controversial issues, you're bound to have some disagreement," quacked KFYI program director Laurie Cantillo (The Bird hopes she's of Italian extraction and not a self-loathing Latina). "We didn't receive any complaints from anyone who had the privilege of hearing the entire broadcast -- only from those who heard about the 30 seconds that Arizona Interfaith Network has been spreading around. They're using what I call selective editing."
Come on, Laurie, who among the camouflage crowd listening to a hick Mexican-basher like James would complain? Your station's listeners are hardly on the membership roster of the Anti-Defamation League.
And regarding it being a privilege to listen to his show, or AIN's engaging in selective editing . . .are you imbibing the same substances that Amaré Stoudemire's mama did?
Cantillo's referring to a press conference by the Network, a lobbying group best known for its unsuccessful opposition of Proposition 200. AIN (natch) denounced the radio station and its apparent just-shoot-'em position on illegal aliens.
Network president Dick White told The Bird, "James actually called for having border roulette. He actually went on the air and suggested choosing a night of the week where we kill anyone who crosses the border. It's indefensible. The license to broadcast on the airwaves is not a license to call for the murder of an entire group of people."
James was "using satire," Cantillo whined. "And Arizona Interfaith Network really threw us a sucker punch. Instead of contacting me to air their grievance, they took it to the people. And then they refused our news department's invitations to come on the show and discuss this on the air. They refused!"
Gosh, Laurie, how awful for you. One of your jocks announces that Mexicans should be shot, and then nobody of that persuasion wants to come be on your radio station? Let's all take up a collection and buy something nice for Laurie. Like a fucking clue!
Cantillo's also pissed that Arizona Interfaith Network waited a full month to hold its news conference. White says it's because he and his cronies were waiting until they had a transcript of James' remarks before proceeding, but Cantillo isn't buying it.
"They just held that press conference because they wanted to drum up support and participants for the latest pro-migrant march," she simpered. "That's cowardly."
More like, smart. As for the gigantic protest, it was peaceful. For The Bird's money, the real huzzah wasn't the number of cheerful Chicanos present but how many of them were waving American flags. Hoisting Old Glory was the none-too-subtle message: "Hey, whitey, it's our country now, too."
Believe it, there's truth in numbers!
On the issue of chicken-heartedness, nobody could be more cowardly than the pussy KFYI's still got on the payroll. You know, the guy who painted a target on every undocumented worker in this state.
Obviously quavering in his panties that he may have also painted a target on himself, Brian James is hiding under Laurie Cantillo's skirt. He's afraid to speak to The Bird, or to anybody else in the media. Here's what somebody over at the station (probably his new mommy, Cantillo) wrote for him in a press release:
