If you have any trouble finding Ms. Betty's House of Ribs in Eastland Heights, just roll down your window when you're getting close and let your nose guide you. That sweet smell of barbecue smoke perfumes the neighborhood.
This place is a true rib shack — a double-wide trailer set in a parking lot with one plastic table inside, a counter with a pass-through window to the kitchen and a sign warning customers not to fiddle with the air conditioner. The smokehouse is out back.
On a friend's recommendation I ordered this rib tip dinner, which was a huge portion for $8. On the side: super cheesy-crusty mac and cheese and mildly seasoned but extremely tender collard greens.
I also ordered a rib dinner ($8.99, right) and a half chicken ($5.25).
The ribs and the rib tips had a great flavor — imbued with plenty of smoke and well seasoned. I also loved the house "boss sauce" that was an unconventional sweet soy glaze. (The other choice is a yellow mustard sauce.) I did think they both tasted reheated; I'd like to find out more about Ms. Betty's smoking schedule and get them when they're fresh from the smoker.
The chicken was fantastic — really moist and, again, gorgeously smoky.
This is a great place to know about if you're anywhere nearby (East Atlanta, Ormewood Park) and hankering for barbecue.
Has anyone else been? Are there any other bona fide rib shacks around town that are worth checking out?

Ms. Betty's is awesome! I live in the area and go there quite a bit. Granted, it's not much to look at on the outside, but that's part of the charm. Great ribs.

Get real John. If it ain't vinegar based sauce, it don't belong on ribs or BBQ. Ms. Betty's is a joke. One time Dad and I went to try it out and realized their sauce wasn't vinegar based. Well I got sent to the truck to grab the spare bottle Dad keeps and when I got back those jerks had told Dad he could leave. Basically they were defensive when Dad questioned them about their sauce. That taught us a valuable lesson about going out to eat.

Tyler, you and your Dad need to chill out. Ms. Betty's ribs are good with or WITHOUT the sauce.

Tyler, ever here the term "to each his own?"
There are millions of people in America that detest that
yucky Vinegar based sauce.
The jerks are perhaps you and your dad.

I kind of agree with Tyler and his Dad… but they both need to relax a bit. Maybe a lot.
I'll try Betty's out soon.

I ran into a bona-fide rib shack on the road between Tallahassee, FL and Thomasville, GA a few years ago. The smoker was outside and the eatin' section was in a 1960's singlewide. Some of the best BBQ me and the wife ever et. We also happened to be the only caucasian faces in the place on a Sunday after church. That's OK, Good BBQ knows no color. Oh, and I had a choice of vinegar or sweet sauce – I guess they wanted to keep Tyler happy.

Good BBQ is good BBQ; it doesn't matter what base the sauce has if it's tasty. And if it's REAL good BBQ, it doesn't require much if any sauce at all.
And you guys were rude enough to get thrown out because of it? Really? That's sad.

"The Grinch" well why did they have a problem with a customer putting their own sauce on food that they purchased? I would think that standards would be somewhat relaxed seeing that this is a double wide trailer and not the ritz-carlton. I mean if they bought the food then what do they care? What happened to the customer is always right? Everybody and their brother knows that tomato based sauce does not belong on REAL bbq anyway.

keeps a spare bottle of vinegar in their truck? It sounds as if Ty and Pops rarely go out to eat – so wth?

My dad makes Shrimp-B-Q that is glorious. His vinegar based Cajun Seafood Sauce just compliments the hours spent preparing the meat and shrimp to perfection. Now while technically his dish is 'Shrimp-B-Q', he likes to call it 'Butt-down-B-Q'. Reason being is that once you eat some of it, you'll sit your butt down and you ain't movin the rest of the afternoon.

Never tried or heard of Ms. Betty's but the best bbq that I've found since I've lived in Atlanta is JJ's Rib Shack on Campbellton Rd, in SW Atl. Definitely nothing fancy to look at, outside or in. The meat is always freshly smoked and tender(rib tips or ribs), the side items are always great, as long as they don't run out, and the sweet, thick and just a little spicy bbq is to die for!!! The chicken is great too. Everything is grilled right there on the grills on the side of the building. The only negatives are they sometimes run out of food early, and the wait can be EXTREMELY LONG, but it's NEVER deterred us from waiting. Never make it home without eating some of the ribs in the car!

JJ's Rib Shack on Campbellton Rd in SW Atl, has the BEST BBQ. The ribs, rib tips, and chicken have all never disappointed me. The sweet, thick, and a little spicy bbq sauce, is to die for!! I can eat the sauce with just bread! The side options, though only about 5 or 6, are always good. All food is prepared on site, and all the meat is grilled/smoked right next to the building. The little "shack/building" is nothing impressive at all, but what comes out of it is! The only negatives to JJ's is that they sometimes run out of food early, and there is usually a relatively long wait. Which just means we go early, and have patience! IT'S ALWAYS SO WORTH IT! Never made it home once without eating some of the ribs in the car!

I bet Tyler & his Dad have been thrown out of worse places as well, and I bet Miss Ann would have some of her hood bouncers throw them out.Even trailer businesses have their pride and codes of conduct.
The best BBQ I ever ate was in Columbus, Ga. – called Macon Road BBQ.It was in the middle of nowhere in a tar paper shack.

While I am willing to try all BBQ sauces, the ones I enjoy include vinegar. Of course, my fave is my own, a recipe passed down from my father. I say, to each to own. On the Tyler debate, I would imagine the reason his Dad was invited to leave could have been how he acted. I don't imagine any restaurant caring if you add some of your own to your food,but I bet they do care how you act! Anyone consider that? Some people just aren't willing to step out of their box and try something different. I have experienced many great foods I thought I would never like based on looks and description.

Tyler, you should post a You Tube clip of that exchange between your old man and Ms. Betty. That sort of hijinx would be very entertaining viral content
January 23rd, 2010

I prefer a vinegar based sauce and don't care for a tomato based sauce but if I go somewhere that doesn't have what I want, I just pick what I think is the closest to my preference and deal with it.

You know, I looked up the definition of barbecue and I not one time did I see that a sauce had to be made a particular way for it to be considered barbecue sauce. I saw references to different types of styles. Most of the time the only reference to a sauce was a "seasoned" sauce. To each their own I say. Be creative. There may be another sauce waiting to be created that beats all. Enjoy yourselves and good eating!

John, I live up Bouldercrest a piece from Betty's (which has been through three or four or five incarnations since I've lived here), and I agree that the food there is wonderful.
One area in which I find myself disagreeing with you, is your bothering to explain to Fix the basic rules of grammar after he proved himself to be not only poorly-educated in grammar, but courtesy as well.
Nice "journalist story", imho.

John, have you tried Community Q on Clairmont (same strip mall as Bojanic)? The brisket and mac and cheese is so good it will make you cry. They also have the BEST black eyed peas I have ever had in my whole entire life …. cooked with big chunks of ham and rosemary OMG so good…. BUT they are not on the menu and they only have them sometimes…. in my book, best Q in the city. Their ribs ROCK also…. OMG I am craving some now! Too bad it is so late… maybe lunch tomorrow.

Hey John, don't you just love it when your thread gets hijacked by idiots who want criticize any and all who respond,and then it goes off to best BBQ-I-Ever-Ate-land. Thanks for the info on Miss Betty's, I'll try it soon. That's the reason I read your stuff anyhow.

My favorite part of eating BBQ is the regional differences in sauces. Each one has it's time and place. I personally love the Memphis style dry rub on ribs, a honey-based sauce on chicken and all kinds on pulled pork. I grew up around sweet sauce, but really enjoy the East North Carolina vinegar style too. I do agree that great BBQ can be eaten with no sauce.
I will have to check her place out.

I love Ms. Betty's ribs! I no longer live over there and will still drive over there when I get a craving for her ribs. She is incredibly sweet and the old adage is true, you can taste love in her cooking.

I have to agree w/ Poca, JJ's Rib Shack is worth the drive and the wait. And if the BBQ is really good then it really doesn't need sauce. I say that because I always get my sauce on the side even @ JJ's. And I totally detest BBQ baste in sauce…YUCK!!!!
January 24th, 2010
10:20 am
Bar-B-Que Sauce…….I like sauce also. The sweet kind I will leave for others. It is rare that you find great Q. But when you do ,leave the sauce in the truck. A great rub and well prepared is the true meaning of Bar-B-Que IMHO. But if you must use sauce, wait till the food is on the table.

I am disgusted with the filthy language that goes with commenting on a fun topic – food! I've lived in Atlanta over 40 years and ohhh….if we could go back to the courteous and lovely way people treated each other when I arrived here. When I read some of the language on here, it only reinforces my thoughts that we have more than enough lowlifes in Atlanta. I really should ignore them, but it's a sad commentary about this city. Anyway, I'm a Williams Bar-B-Que gal up by the Big Chicken in Marietta. they have an all you can eat special for 10.00

you have never had ribs until you've had WW BOSS. THEY WILL BE MOVING BACK TO DECATUR NEXT TO REDLOBSTER ON CANDLER RD IN FEBRUARY. THE RIBS FALL OFF THE BONES. The sauce is very thick and rich and spicy and hangs on the bone. Sometimes I just ask for the sauce. It is finger licking good. THE RIB TIPS ARE GREAT THEY ALSO HAVE VEGGIES AND THE PEACH COBBLER IS AS GOOD AS GRANDMAS. BREAKFAST is also served there, very traditional Southern fare.

Mfoutouhi- I agree with you about Williams Bros. BBQ. Very good.
Also, I'd like to recommend Low Country BBQ. However, I think they only cater.

PITTSBURG — The Pitt State baseball team scored three times in the bottom of the seventh inning to claim a 7-6 victory over Bethany College and sweep a season-opening doubleheader Wednesday (Feb. 23) at Al Ortolani Field.
Pitt State (2-0) posted a 7-5 victory in the season opener against Bethany (2-9) earlier in the afternoon.
Chase Barnes belted a two-run home run to knot the score at 6-6 in the final inning of the nightcap, after Jeremy Graves drew a leadoff walk. Pinch hitter Derek Hackney then singled. Brian Dean bunted him to second and following an intentional walk to Jason Graves, pinch hitter Evan Thomas delivered the game-winning single through the middle of the infield to plate Hackney.
The Gorillas pounded out 10 hits in the contest. Barnes led the way, going 2-for-4 with three RBIs.
Jake Craft (1-0) earned the win in relief, working one scoreless inning. Alex Schell allowed three runs in five innings of work, leaving with a 4-3 lead.
In the opener, Jeremy Graves and Barnes hit back-to-back home runs in the third inning for a 3-1 lead and the Gorillas overcame four defensive errors, and three unearned runs, to claim a 7-5 victory.
Scott Brady (1-0) allowed just two unearned runs in three innings of relief work to pick up the victory.
Barnes went 3-for-4 with three RBIs to pace Pitt State's 11-hit attack. Graves doubled, homered and scored three runs for the Gorillas as well.
Pitt State will return to action Mar. 4 when the Gorillas open a four-game MIAA weekend series against Emporia State. The two teams will meet in a single game at 3 p.m. (CST), then play a 1 p.m. doubleheader Saturday (Mar. 5) and a single game at 12 Noon Sunday (Mar. 6).

Swi3p is a component of SWI/SNF, present at two copies per complex (7, 11, 12, 13). Swi3p is required for transcription of a diverse set of genes, including HO and Ty retrotransposons (14, 15, 16, 7, 17), and is also required for normal mating-type switching, recruitment of SWI/SNF to promoters by Gcn4p, and maintenance of the full structural integrity of the SWI/SNF complex (1, 18). Swi3p has two domains which are essential for its function, a SWIRM domain at residues 311-395 and a SANT domain at residues 527-576 (19, 20, 21). The steady-state level of Swi3p depends on functional Swi1p and Snf2p (7).
swi3 null mutants are viable but grow slowly on glucose, are inositol auxotrophs, and are unable to grow aerobically on maltose, galactose or raffinose (15, 7, 17). swi3 mutants are also defective in mating-type switching and sporulation, and display reduced growth at mild alkaline pH (1, 17, 22).
Swi3p is similar to Rsc8p and both are SWIRM domain proteins, which are predicted to mediate specific protein-protein interactions (23, 19). The eukaryotic SWIRM domain family also includes Schizosaccharomyces pombe Spac23e2.02p and Spbc146.09cp, Arabidopsis thaliana protein ATSWI3A, Drosophila MOR, and human SMARCC1, SMARCC2, MYSM1 and AOF2 (19). Swi3p is also similar to Arabidopsis thaliana AtSWI3B, Caenorhabditis elegans PSA-1 and PSA-4, and mouse SRG3 (24, 25, 26).
By regulating the structure of chromatin, chromatin remodeling complexes, all of which contain an ATPase as a central motor subunit, perform critical functions in the maintenance, transmission, and expression of eukaryotic genomes. The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is involved in DNA replication, stress response, and transcription, and binds DNA nonspecifically, altering nucleosome structure to facilitate binding of transcription factors. For some genes, transcriptional activators are able to target the SWI/SNF complex to upstream activation sequences (UAS) in the promoter. The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex family contains two evolutionary conserved subclasses of chromatin remodeling factors, one subfamily includes yeast SWI/SNF, fly BAP, and mammalian BAF, and the other subfamily includes yeast RSC (Remodel the Structure of Chromatin), fly PBAP, and mammalian PBAF (23, 27, 6, 28, 29, 11, 30, 12, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 18, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 41, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51).
It appears that some human SWI/SNF subunits act as tumor suppressors and there is also evidence that human SWI/SNF subunits are involved in controlling cell growth via their interaction with other tumor suppressors (52). Expression of adenovirus E1A oncoproteins, which are regulators of cellular and viral transcription, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires the function of the SWI/SNF complex, and expression of E1A in wild-type cells leads to a specific loss of SWI/SNF dependent transcription. These results suggest that the SWI/SNF complex is a target of these oncoproteins in mammalian cells and that the disruption of normal cell cycle control by E1A may be due in part to altered activity of the SWI/SNF complex (53).

Re Josephine Kenna's Feb. 22 Speakup Online letter, Post office too unreliable: I apologize to Ms. Kenna for her unpleasant experience at her post office and assure her that we aim to provide a level of service that makes our customers want to do business with us.
We appreciate the kind words Ms. Kenna had for her carrier. Our carriers are great Postal Service ambassadors delivering more than 165 billion pieces of mail a year to more than 150 million addresses nationwide. Still, we recognize that we are only as good as our last transaction.
No one likes waiting in line and, because of Ms. Kenna's letter, we are addressing that concern immediately. Long lines at the post office can cost us your business.
Customers in South Florida will continue to see the deployment of a new generation of self-service kiosks. The kiosks feature a larger, brighter touch screen and also have scanners for pricing greeting cards and ReadyPost products, along with scales. The U.S. Postal Service has also expanded the use of "lobby assistants" to introduce customers to the new kiosks and show them how they work. The lobby assistants will greet and prepare customers waiting in line to make their transactions with retail associates quicker and easier, improving customers' experience.
Customers can skip the trip to the post office altogether with Click-N-Ship, our online shipping-service tool that allows them to print mailing labels with postage right from the convenience of their homes or offices with a postage discount and automatic end-to-end tracking at no added charge.
We're excited about the massive growth in package volume at USPS — $3.5 billion in 2012, up 14 percent since 2010 — and we're projecting continued strong growth. That growth combined with America's changing habits with mail prompted our decision to end Saturday delivery of mail but maintain package deliveries — including prescription medicines — six days a week. The transition to five-day delivery will save the Postal Service approximately $2 billion annually while allowing us to capitalize on the rise of e-commerce to play an increasingly vital role as a delivery provider of choice.
The U.S. Postal Service assures Ms. Kenna, South Floridians and the nation that it will continue to develop and implement innovative products and services to provide the delivery platform that all of us can all rely on for generations to come.
Enrique M. Suarez, Miami officer-in-charge, U.S. Postal Service, Miami

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Fourteen Die On Kentucky Roadways (June 20 through June 26)
Date of News Release: 06/27/11
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that fourteen people died in twelve separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, June 20, through Sunday, June 26, 2011.
Twelve of the fatalities involved motor vehicles and seven of the victims were not wearing seat belts. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Barren, Fayette, Greenup, McCreary, Pulaski, Shelby, Simpson and Taylor counties.
Two double-fatality motor vehicle collisions occurred in Cumberland and Mason counties.
Alcohol was a factor in the Barren, Mason, Pulaski and Taylor county crashes.
One motorcycle involved fatal crash occurred in Graves County and the victim was wearing a helmet. A pedestrian involved fatality also occurred in Graves County.
Through June 26, preliminary statistics* indicate that 297 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2011. This is forty-three less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2010. There have been 241 motor vehicle fatalities and 137 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Nineteen of those crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. Twenty-one crashes involved a motorcycle and eleven victims were not wearing helmets. Seven crashes involved an ATV and six of the victims were not wearing a helmet. Twenty-five crashes involved pedestrians and two involved a bicycle. One crash involved a scooter. A total of forty-six fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas. Crash data for this report is generated from the Kentucky Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS).

The rules include a provision on decisions made by the Concealed Carry License Review Board, which considers applicants' eligibility to obtain a license, according to the State of Illinois Appointments website. If applications are denied, the board must send the applicant notice of the objection with reasons as well as the agency submitting the objection, the statement said.
The applicant then has 10 days to provide the board with evidence of his or her eligibility.
"The Board thoughtfully considers every objection received from law enforcement agencies, and we believe that these emergency rules will provide a more defined framework on processes and procedures that impact applicants and the public," CCLRB Chairman Robinzina Bryant said in the statement.
The new rules will officially be published in the July 25 Illinois Register.

UBS applauds Morgan Stanley's transformation
Declaring it 'ready to emerge from the cocoon,' UBS upgraded the Wall Street investment bank on Wednesday to "buy."
Morgan Stanley (MS) has undergone a makeover in recent years into a less risky, wealth-management and brokerage-focused bank. Count UBS (UBS) as a fan.
Declaring Morgan Stanley "ready to emerge from the cocoon," UBS upgraded the Wall Street investment bank on Wednesday to "buy" from "neutral" and raised its price target on the company's stock to $33 from $28.
"We believe better than expected results out of MS's wealth management business could lead to solid upside in the stock, and we believe the risk reward represents an attractive trade-off here," UBS analyst Brennan Hawken wrote in a research note.
UBS cited an internal financial advisors survey that found risk appetite among high-network investors continues to improve and recruiting of advisers by brokerage firms has stabilized.
"These trends should allow for continued recovery of wealth management revenues, while cost pressure should moderate, supporting a very constructive environment for brokerage firms," Hawken wrote.
The upgrade comes five years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, a seminal moment that forced Wall Street to dial back risk and rethink its business model and regulatory obligations.
In contrast with some of its peers like Goldman Sachs (GS), Morgan Stanley has embraced this shift by focusing its attention increasingly on its retail brokerage and wealth management businesses. Morgan Stanley cemented this transformation by recently sealing a $9 billion buyout of brokerage firm Smith Barney.
UBS also said it believes Morgan Stanley is a "solid rate play" as the eventual rise in short-term rates should drive the bank's interest margins.
"We suspect that MS may be able to capture more of the incremental earnings from the rate rises than the trust banks," Hawken wrote.
UBS boosted its 2013 EPS estimate on Morgan to $1.80 from $1.77 and its 2014 target to $2.80 from $2.60.
Shares of New York-based Morgan hit a 52-week high of $28.34 on Wednesday morning, but recently traded off 0.09% to $28.01.

No arrests have been made and now officers want to make sure you know what to look for!
The South Bend Police Department has gotten reports of counterfeit bills of several denominations, including $20s, $50s, and $100s.
Captain Phil Trent says some of the fakes are simply printed on resume paper from an ordinary printer.
Other counterfeit bills were once real bills in smaller denominations, but bleached and reprinted as a pricier bill.
Police say in most cases, consumers are handing the bills over to cashiers, who just accept them. Then the business is stuck footing the bill.
"The bank will say, 'You have two fake 20s in this deposit of several thousand dollars.' And then they're just out the two phony 20s," says Trent.Police say there are a number of things employers can train their cashiers to look for, like the water mark and security thread.
Trent says, "You have to make sure the water mark matches the President that's on the bill and you have to make sure that security thread, which says the denomination, it'll spell out 5, 10, 20, 50, 100."
The police department encourages employers to have their staff take a look at the secret services website, which has details on what to look for when handling money.

PITTSBURGH—The Community College of Allegheny County (CCAC) Board of Trustees today approved a $104.9 million budget that addresses a projected budget shortfall through a combination of cuts to expenses and a modest tuition increase.
The college's 2011–2012 operating budget is nearly $1 million less than the current year's budget. Reductions came through cuts to operating expenses and a continued hiring freeze on most non-union administrative positions funded through the regular operating budget.
The college will use $1 million from its limited reserves to offset what would have been deeper cuts in programs and services to students. "These measures are a result of the proposed cuts that CCAC and all of higher education in the Commonwealth are facing in the state budget," said CCAC board chair William Robinson.
Trustees approved a $2 increase in tuition, bringing the rate for Allegheny County residents to $87.25 per credit. The technology fee will rise $1, from $8 to $9 per credit. In addition, a new student services fee of $1 per credit will help to ensure that students have supplemental support to complete their education.
"Despite the proposed reductions in the governor's budget, we will do everything we can to continue to provide quality academic programs that are so vital to individuals in our community and region. We are asking students and their families to make an additional modest investment in this effort," said State Sen. Jay Costa, board treasurer.
About CCAC

The college serves 30,000 credit students through 170 degree and certificate programs and offers thousands of lifelong learning non-credit and workforce development courses to 35,000 students annually.

Peer Choices, Inc. Executive Summary
by Pamela Estigoy
Peer Choices, Inc. started in 2006 in Waterford, Michigan, as a cooperative of mental health consumers helping members leverage their collective resources, power, and voice to maximize the benefits and supports they receive. We became incorporated in August 2006 and received our Federal 501c3 status in March 2007.
Our mission statement reflects our organizational values and goals: "We exist to engage in partnerships and opportunities that empower individuals with mental health challenges to have a self-determined, enhanced quality of life."
At Peer Choices we believe consumers can competently make decisions about their lives that will result in outcomes "as good as or better than" those currently achieved by mental health professionals, and at a substantially lower cost. Mental health consumers govern the organization and receive training and support to accomplish our objectives.
The staff at Peer Choices are former or current consumers of mental health services (also known as "peers") and are accountable to the board of directors. Most staff members have completed intensive 40-hour peer specialist training and a competency test delivered by the State of Michigan. After successfully completing the test, they become qualified by the Michigan Department of Community Health to work as Certified Peer Support Specialists.
Peer Support Specialists (PSS) are people who are strong in their recovery, have specialized training, and possess a unique background and skill level as a result of their personal experience with mental illness. They understand how to use services and supports to achieve their goals of community membership, independence, and productivity. Because of their shared experience, perspective on mental illness, and interaction with the human services system, PSS have a special ability to gain trust and respect from others.
Peer Specialist Services, as defined by the Michigan Department of Community Health
Medicaid Provider Manual
, "provide individuals with opportunities to support, mentor, and assist consumers to achieve community inclusion, participation, independence, recovery, resiliency, and/or productivity."
Peer Choices is a mental health services organization fully operated and delivered by peers. Our purpose is to give mental health consumers the ability to
Gain knowledge of recovery and develop empowerment skills
Gain access to self-determination choices
Find community resources
Locate volunteer opportunities
Receive training to assist in job placement

AHRQ Webinar
Using Deliberative Methods to Engage Patients, Consumers, and the Public
December 6, 2011
2–3:30 p.m. EST
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) invites you to participate in a Webinar on using deliberative methods to explore views on health policy and health care issues held by patients, consumers, caregivers, and other members of the community.
Initiated in 2010, AHRQ's Community Forum seeks to expand public and stakeholder engagement in the agency's Effective Health Care Program, which conducts and supports comparative effectiveness research. As part of this effort, AHRQ has focused on deliberative methods for obtaining public views.
During the Webinar, participants will share effective tools for enhancing work in public deliberation, patient/consumer involvement, and community engagement. Public deliberation convenes members of the public or a specific community to learn about and discuss societal issues. The purpose is to learn from participants and ultimately to make policy decisions that reflect their views. Various deliberative methods can be used to reach the general public or people who are affected by a particular issue.
Webinar discussion will include
How deliberative methods vary from more traditional and familiar methods for obtaining public views (such as opinion polls or focus groups)
The circumstances in which deliberative methods could be useful
Issues appropriate for deliberation
Defining features of deliberative methods
Best practices in the application of deliberative methods
How deliberative methods could be used in your work

Upward to $3 billion
Baltimore Sun
An awful lot of money. We're talking way more than any American sports team has been sold for before.
Forbes valued the Yankees at $1.85 billion in March, and the general belief among experts and analysts seems to be that, in the wake of the Dodgers' being sold for $2.15 billion later that month, the Yankees would command about $3 billion.
Much of that value is tied to the team's stake in YES, its regional sports network. The Yankees own one-third of YES, which, according to Forbes, brought in $224 million in operating income in 2011.
Whether the Steinbrenner family is actually considering selling the team is unclear. But if a sale happens, expect it to set a new record, by hundreds of millions of dollars, for the price of a sports franchise.
Network puts it at peak
The question isn't whether the Steinbrenner family is going to sell the Yankees, but why wouldn't they?
Some estimates are that the Yankees would sell for at least $3 billion, based on the Dodgers' sale price, and if the Yankees really could sell for that much they might go on the market.
But the Dodgers' price was built around the team's unsold TV rights, with a 20-year, $4 billion deal awaiting the new owners and driving the bidding, and that's not the case this time.
Would the Steinbrenners sell the YES Network with the team? To get $3 billion or more, the network would have to be in the sale, and there's no guarantee it would be. Take the network out of the deal and the team would sell for less than the Dodgers.
$4 billion? YES, believe it
Bill Shaikin
Los Angeles Times
If the battered and bruised Dodgers could fetch $2 billion, what could the Yankees command? Double?

Clemson University Football Program Cover Collection
The Clemson University Football Program Cover Collection comes from the University Archives, and features 198 unique cover layouts of both home and away games. Typical of sports programs, these covers are the combined efforts of illustrators, graphic artists and printers that worked with the University Athletic Department to create these souvenirs, which contained biographical information on coaches and athletes, as well as statistical information about each team. While most programs in this collection are from home games, there are also some programs from away games and bowl games. The covers of these programs depict Clemson's Tiger mascot, caricatures of rival mascots, coaches, players, and game theme days.

MSU Track & Field Travels to SPIRE and GVSU Big Meet
Feb. 13, 2014
EAST LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan State track and field team will travel to Geneva, Ohio, for the SPIRE Invitational on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 14-15. The meet is held at the site of the 2014 Big Ten Indoor Track & Field Championships, where the Spartans will be competing against conference foes in two short weeks. Members of the team will also be making another trip to Allendale, Mich., for the GVSU Big Meet scheduled for this weekend.
"Without a doubt, due to the time of the season, we go to a meet like this and expect everybody to have a championship type mentality and championship approach to this competition," said assistant coach Randy Gillon. "It is the Big Ten site, so we want people to kind of get geared up. The Big Ten Indoor Championships are only two weeks away, so it's important that our athletes who are hitting continue to hit and athletes that are still sorting themselves out need to do so now and make a statement as to whether they are going to be a contributor or point scorer. We're looking for people to have a great deal of focus and put themselves in position to score points at the conference meet.
Last Time Out
Three new MSU records were set at the Meyo Invite, kicked off by Sarah Birkmeier's winning mark in the pole vault (4.06m/13-3¾), while Antonio James won both the weight throw (21.65m/ 71-½) and shot put, setting a new shot put record of 19.55m/ 64-1¾.

Meanwhile, Kurt Schneider finished in second place in the heptathlon at the Akron Invitational. He tallied a total of 5,558 points, paced by a win in the high jump and four runner-up finishes.
At the Hillsdale College Wide Track Classic, five Spartans placed in the top-10 in the 3,000-meter led by Allison Lunau (9:54.41) competing unattached and finishing first in the women's race, while Ben Carruthers (8:34.26) led the men with a fourth-place finish.

Plate 17: Surgical Dissection of the Wrist and Hand from Surgical Anatomy by Joseph Maclise.
"The hand is typical of the mind. It is the material symbol of the immaterial spirit, It is the prime agent of the will; and it is that instrument by which the human intellect manifests its presence in creation. The human hand has a language of its own. While the tongue demonstrates the thought through the word, the hand realizes and renders visible the thought through the work."
Joint Deformities of the Hand.
Rheumatoid arthritis can be a very debilitating illness that affects the joints. It can affect small joints of the hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles, and feet. The mallet finger, swan neck, and boutonniere deformities shown above can all possibly be seen in rheumatoid arthritis.

The combined Insurance and Finance major offers the opportunity to acquire a general knowledge of each discipline, as well as specialized theory and practice in these interrelated fields. The curriculum seeks to expand capacities, perspectives and skills of students who are preparing for careers in insurance and finance, including the area of risk management. This major represents a segment of the individual undergraduate Insurance and Finance program, forming a cohesive interdisciplinary program of study. While forsaking some specialization in one field, the student gains significant exposure to two specialized fields of business administration.

The Heavyweight RoundThe Circuit de la Sarthe was braced this year for a showdown between two of the world's great manufacturers, Audi and Peugeot, for a bid for supremacy in the brave new world of high-performance diesel technology. The Peugeot 908 coupe was dominating the round of the European-based Le Mans Series (LMS), but everyone knows that it is the 24 hours that matters to all concerned.
Peugeot dominated the early stages with the No. 2 Audi of Tom Kristensen, Dindo Capello, and Allan McNish keeping up the pressure and waiting for the first mishap. Between the Audi trio of a Dane, an Italian, and a Scot, there were no less than 10 victories at Le Mans with Kristensen as the record holder with seven. Would they make it 13 by the final tick of the clock? They did and most impressively. Audi pilots McNish, Capello, and Kristensen reflect on this battle for the ages.
Time Loves A Hero:Allan McNish
EC: One of the great comments of the race came after your first quadruple stint, something about a "conservative" pace? You need to go back to the start of the '99 race when I think it was Schneider in the Mercedes taking a run at your teammate Mr. Brundle in the Toyota. You made it stick but it just as easily could've been the goat, what say ye?AM: I prefer the "ass" instead of the goat; goats are useful! It was a safe move with Nic's Peugeot. I knew he didn't want to end his race on the first lap either and just wanted to see how quick they actually were. In fact, when we got to the first chicane I had a small chance to out brake him again because he left me just enough room, but my experience got the better of my racing instinct just.
EC: Qualifying was shocking enough, with regards to their outright speed. Did you expect all three of the lions to open up such a gap in those opening laps?AM: Yes, but I hoped they wouldn't. For me it was a case of pushing hard, taking no major risks in traffic, getting the 12-lap stints before pit stops, and thinking about where the race might be at midnight.
EC: The pace of the No. 2 R10 was noticeably quicker over the race than that of the other two Audis. Was this a case of you being the rabbit or was it left to each team to determine its own pace and attack?AM: We all have the same equipment and engineering support. We chose four stints and our pace was our pace, as it was in Le Mans 2007 or to date in the LMS in 2008.
EC: Compared to last year's R10 it seemed that the car was considerably looser in the setup. At times you seemed like a WRC driver on the tarmac.AM: It actually wasn't much different to drive, just faster, except for slightly less traction. But that could've been because we had a little more power!
EC: Throughout this decade, your prime competition at la Sarthe has come mainly from other VAG products. This was a return to 1997-1999 where it was also a battle between manufacturers. How did this race compare to those earlier efforts for you on a personal scale?AM: More exciting, more of an edge, more on the absolute limits of every aspect of the race, in and out of the car, and much more like 1998/1999. It was cool.
EC: Every driver has some kind of moment during the 24 hours, what was yours this time?AM: The second stint coming out of the Porsche curves where I overtook an LMP that, at the same time, decided to overtake a GT three wide with me two wheels on the grass passing the big Audi hospitality flat in Fifth, hmm ... That was my closest but ask Tom, I seem to remember him having a closer shave!
EC: Now one of those questions for the fans. Compare the R10 at Le Mans to your other rides from the past: the R8, Porsche GT1, and of course the Toyota GT-One.AM: All different but all top of that year. The Porsche GT1 was solid and consistent in every condition, it drove itself, but Norbert Singer was behind that one so that was no surprise. The Toyota GT-One was very fast (354 km/h) but much more on the edge, only a few drivers really got on top of it through the Porsche curves. The R8 was initially in-between but became sedated after a few years of rule changes and development. The R10 was harder to drive than the R8 but when you're on it, you know you're traveling very fast.
EC: So it's been 10 years between wins, what does this mean and what effect does this have on you from a business perspective?AM: Unlike last time, I'm sure no F1 opportunities will arise, and I would not want them to, but it certainly is good for my current sponsors and also certain ones we are talking to for 2009. Maybe more euros in my wee Scottish pocket, tee hee.
EC: A while back you mentioned that after retiring from driving you would bring Finlay to Le Mans and show him where you used to race with Uncle Tom and Uncle Dindo. It took awhile longer than you wanted but it finally happened.AM: Yep and I will definitely take him there to experience Le Mans, but I will also show him a picture of his dad on the podium to prove his old man could hack it once upon a time!
More Than A Contender:Dindo Capello
EC: How are you feeling today? How were you greeted when you returned home?DC: I was on the train (TGV) from Le Mans to the airport at 7:30 a.m. and for the first three hours after my wake-up call I was still sleepy, but when I got the first Italian newspaper in the plane and saw a large photo of me on the podium I started to think that Allan, TK, and I, we did something great.
EC: Last year you were miles ahead of the field and could have cruised to victory until the wheel nut incident. This year it was flat-out attack, how was it going from being the hunted like last year to being the hunter?DC: From one side it was less pressure; from the other side we all knew that to have a small chance to win this year we had to make exactly the same race like 2007, which almost was the perfect race, but without the incident. We also knew that would've been almost impossible to repeat it, but we did it.
EC: TK and Nishy have different driving styles than you do. The R10 appeared to be more on the edge this time, were these changes to the aero or just down-to-driving performances?DC: I felt the car in some stints was not as good as in other stints with some movement on the tires that make it not so nice to drive. I don't think it's coming from the new aero package.
EC: You get the same question I asked Nishy. Every driver has a big moment at Le Mans. Nothing could top yours personally from last year, but what was this year's?DC: To be honest, the race for me went very well without any risk of having an accident with slower cars or driving errors. I would say a big moment was when I was on slicks and I had to bring the car back to the pits in heavy rain. I thought I was very slow but later when I checked I had gained more than 10 seconds during that lap.
EC: A lot of drivers don't appear in the pits until just before their stint. You always seem to be quite comfortable hanging out and taking it all in. Is this your way of getting ready or do you just enjoy being there?DC: Very often I would like to stay away from the pits, and especially from the monitors, but at the end I am always focused on the pace of my teammates and the coverage of the race. I should be more relaxed!
EC: You've had a difficult season so far with just about every mishap or mechanical problem possible. At any time during the 24 hours were you ever thinking, "OK Dindo, what is going to happen next?"DC: At the end of my first four stints I immediately thought: This is the first time that Allan and I have done six hours without any problems! This was at least the first good news of the race for me.
EC: The victory showed a rare glimpse of a genuine letting go of emotion from the Audi team right on down to Dr. Ullrich. It was evident on the podium. This must have felt very different from your previous wins at Le Mans.DC: For me the photo of the podium with Dr. Ullrich, Ralf Juttner, and the drivers all together shows exactly how strong the team spirit has been in the No. 2 car. I also felt that for many people this victory was at least as important as the very first one in 2000.
EC: Why don't you ask Audi for one of the race cars you drove and put it away for your children one day?DC: That would be great, but to be able to afford that, Audi should first increase the drivers' salaries.
EC: Teams are always looking for youth, not to say that you're old but this has been both a profession and a living. Not only have you been successful, you continue to outpace a lot of people. What gets a driver to a plateau like that to remain sharp and competitive?DC: I'm working very, very hard to keep in shape, not only for the body but also for the mind and for the eyes. I would say that I invest a lot of money in training. Plus, I have the will to fight to keep my seat.
EC: You haven't been back to the U.S. since Sebring. Don't you think it's time for you and the wee Scot to come back? We forgive you.DC: I really miss the ALMS even though the LMS is a great championship. Yes, it would be nice to be back with Allan in the States. Why not?
All Hail The King:Tom Kristensen
EC: You're pretty good aren't you?TK: [Tom just smiles.]
EC: The previous record held by Jacky Ickx once seemed impossible to break. Not only have you broken it but with number eight, you keep adding to the total. Now 10 seems to be within reach.TK: I only think as far as the next corner!
EC: The decade has belonged to Audi with regards to Le Mans but Peugeot truly raised the stakes. It's been a long time since you were a true underdog, did you find additional motivation in this?TK: Oh yes, and Dindo and Allan as well. Also, remember our bad dance with lady luck last time we were out in Le Mans with the four-lap lead and no cigar Peugeot has indeed done a superb job for speed during the winter. We were very impressed, but certainly not depressed.
EC: Can you describe the emotions as a professional driver during that stint in the darkness while raining when you took the lead over the No. 7 Peugeot?TK: Deep concentration with a lot of positivity to do the higher risks (in particular in braking), no mistakes for us drivers, and always fast and efficient stops, and tires from the mechanics, plus a great united team spirit. Raising the game.
EC: Concerning the R10, it was obvious that it didn't have the straight-line speed of the main competition. With the constant pushing of always being on the attack, how was the overall balance and did the R10 become more difficult to drive?TK: No, not at all. The car was actually the best R10 we had at Le Mans, and the balance was constant through the race with good brakes and reasonably safe in the wet.
EC: You were paid a high compliment on live television regarding your skills in the wet by Jacques Villeneuve back in your F3 days. In your opinion, what makes a driver good in the rain?TK: Good stability and control under braking and adjusting the traction control according to the conditions. Le Mans during the night is a pretty scary sight, although JV was just being very kind. We had great races in several monsoon-type storms in Japan back then.
EC: You've witnessed several changes to the circuit since your first go. Do you have any observations?TK: They can easily improve the circuit in consistency and safety even more because it improves slightly every year, but I agree that the speed of the cars is reaching the limits. They have to look at the regulations; I am sure they will.
EC: So what does an eight-time winner of the world's most famous sports car race do in his free time?TK: Every year I have less and less free time, and more and more kids! I try to spend time with my entire family and play with the children. I certainly do a lot of sports to stay tuned, like biking, running, and playing a bit of soccer.
EC: Will you be at Petit Le Mans this year with Dindo and Nishy?TK: Ask Dr. Ullrich from Audi Sport. I would be happy to go out with those two boys anytime, but I guess it's very close to the final two DTM races in Le Mans (Bugatti) and the Hockenheim finale.
