Jay W. Marks, MD, is a board-certified internist and gastroenterologist. He graduated from Yale University School of Medicine and trained in internal medicine and gastroenterology at UCLA/Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
GENERIC NAME: hydroxyzine
BRAND NAMES: Atarax, Vistaril
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine with anticholinergic (drying) and sedative properties that is used to treat allergic reactions. The body releases histamine during several types of allergic reactions and, to a lesser extent, during some viral infections, such as the common cold. When histamine binds to its receptors on cells, it causes the cells to release chemical messengers that lead to sneezing, itching, and increased mucus production. Antihistamines, like histamine, binds to the histamine receptors, but when they bind to the receptors they do not stimulate the cells to release chemical messengers. In addition, they prevent histamine from binding and stimulating the cells. Hydroxyzine itself has no histamine-like activity. After ingestion, it is converted to its active form. The active form of hydroxyzine is a drug called cetirizine (Zyrtec). Although, both hydroxyzine and cetirizine act as antihistamines, hydroxyzine causes more sedation than cetirizine. The FDA approved hydroxyzine in 1956.
GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
STORAGE: Capsules, tablets, and liquids should be stored at room temperature 15 C to 30 C (59 F to 86 F). Liquid should not be frozen and should be shaken well prior to each use. Injectable hydroxyzine should be stored below 30 C (86 F).
PRESCRIBED FOR: Hydroxyzine is used for the relief of pruritus (itching) caused by various allergic conditions. Hydroxyzine is also used for treating anxiety and tension, and inducing sedation prior to or after anesthesia. Nausea, vomiting, and alcohol withdrawal are also uses for hydroxyzine.
DOSING: Hydroxyzine has its maximal effect about 30 to 60 minutes after it is taken. Its effects last for 4 to 6 hours.
Hydroxyzine can be taken with or without food.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Hydroxyzine adds to (exaggerates) the sedating effects of alcohol and other drugs that can cause sedation such as the benzodiazepine class of anti-anxiety drugs (for example, diazepam [Valium], lorazepam [Ativan], clonazepam [Klonopin], alprazolam [Xanax]), the narcotic class of pain medications and its derivatives (for example, oxycodone and acetaminophen [Percocet], hydrocodone/acetaminophen [Vicodin], hydromorphone [Dilaudid], codeine, propoxyphene [Darvon]), the tricyclic class of antidepressants (for example, amitriptyline [Elavil, Endep], imipramine [Tofranil], desipramine [Norpramin]), and certain antihypertensive medications (for example, clonidine [Catapres], and propranolol [Inderal]). Hydroxyzine can also intensify the drying effects of other medications with anticholinergic properties (for example, dicyclomine [Bentyl], bethanechol [Urecholine], Probanthine, amitriptyline [Elavil, Endep], and chlorpromazine [Thorazine]). When using these drugs, the dose of hydroxyzine may require reduction.

In a first-of-its-kind report, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) broke down data on health disparities by race, ethnicity, income, and education, The New York Times reported Jan. 13.
The report included data on the impact of alcohol and drug use on different segments of the United States population. For example, more Americans now die from prescription drug overdoses than from illicit drugs. In particular, White, non-Hispanic deaths from prescription drug overdoses outnumber those of African-Americans.
The Times said that the "trend switched in 2002, after doctors began prescribing more powerful painkillers, antidepressants and antipsychotics – more easily obtained by people with health insurance."
Many of the health disparities, like obesity or tobacco use, worsened for individuals with low incomes, or who lacked education or insurance.
One exception was binge drinking, which is on the rise. Unlike many other health disparities, the problem — consuming four drinks at a sitting for women, and five for men — is more common among those with higher incomes and better education.
Low-income individuals, however, consume more alcohol when they binge, Native Americans especially.
The full report, CDC Health Disparities and Inequalities Report – United States, 2011 (PDF), was published Jan. 14, 2011 in the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, Supplement / Volume 60.

We are following the effects of the cold weather from overnight. Forecasters say it was the coldest morning of the season.
Farmers are assessing the damage from the freeze, while others woke up to a layer of frost.
Frost is an issue here because Floridians don't usually have ice scrapers to get the mess off of our cars. That means we have to get creative. One person even resorted to using a credit card.
Several viewers even sent in pictures of frost from Sunday morning.

Built to get you there and back, pavement or not
When the pavement ends, the fun doesn't have to stop if you're riding the Kawasaki KLX®250S. Lights, turn signals and all the other things you need to ride on the street are here, but the KLX250S's heart belongs in the dirt. With its 249cc liquid-cooled single, long-travel suspension and rugged steel frame, this lightweight machine lets you access the best of both worlds.
That compact and powerful four-stroke single-cylinder engine fires right up through the miracle of electric starting, and it mounts nice and low beneath a lightweight, high-tensile steel perimeter frame to provide a low center of gravity and enhanced maneuvering on tight trails. A gear-driven engine balancer keeps it nice and smooth for greater comfort and less fatigue on longer rides. The 34mm semi-flat slide Keihin CVK carburetor provides great throttle response and broad, smooth power—not to mention fantastic fuel economy. The KLX250S meets strict CARB regulations, making it available in California.
A highly refined six-speed transmission contains the right gear for everything from first-gear offroad crawling through top-gear highway cruising, with an advanced shift cam for positive shift feel and firm engagement.
The rigors of off-road motorcycling dictate additional protection for the exposed underside of the machine: The KLX250S comes standard with an aluminum engine guard to protect its crankcase during off road adventures. Negotiating tight terrain also highlights another off-road reality — heat. Dual lightweight, high-capacity Denso radiators and an electric fan provide ample cooling.
The KLX250S's straight-line stability is enhanced by use of a rigid square-section main frame, yet its short wheelbase gives it outstanding turning aptitude. Complementing the chassis is a lightweight aluminum swingarm employing a highly-rigid D-shaped cross section. KX™ racing-type chain adjusters allow for precise chain adjustments.
The KLX250S's custom spring and damping settings, with slightly less wheel travel than a dedicated off-road machine, give a more planted feel in corners and make it easier for riders to reach the ground. The 43mm inverted cartridge-style front fork features 16-way adjustable compression damping and 10.0-inches of travel; the Uni-Trak® linkage-type rear suspension has 16-way adjustable compression and rebound damping, and provides 9.1-inches of wheel travel.
Strong, 4mm-thick spokes in the 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels provide for excellent wheel rigidity for enhanced off-road durability. The KLX250S also stops hard, thanks to twin-piston calipers squeezing a 250mm semi-floating petal disc up front and a 240mm petal disc at the rear.
Aggressively styled bodywork finishes off this powerful and rugged package, and a custom seat stuffed with firm urethane and a carefully chosen handlebar pull it all together for long, comfortable days on the road and off it.
Riders seeking enduro handling and modern engine performance in a dual-purpose motorcycle designed for effortless street riding will find it at their local Kawasaki dealership. The KLX250S offers serious capabilities in a fun, easy-to-ride package, regardless of where the adventure takes it.

Panasonic GH1 double-sided review by DCI/CCI
We have a new double-sided review of the Panasonic GH1, says the Imaging Insider. The double-sided review comes from two sister sites, Digital Camera Info which covers digital cameras, and Camcorder Info which covers camcorders. The Camcorder side of the review is a single-page video-testing with numbers and charts, while the stills-side of the review is a traditional type of a camera-review, posted at DCI. And if you are in a hurry, you can jump to their conclusions page, where they divide their verdict depending on whether the potential buyer is interested in HD-Video or not. Part of the reason why is because Panasonic is forcing people's hand by only offering the GH1 bundled with the 14-140 lens in the US market.
For more on the GH1, be sure to check its list of reviews and the unified G1/GH1 diary.

I've watched/listened to this flash at least once a month for a few years now, and for some inexplicable reason today I just completely forgot the title to this song and flash. I just spent the last two hours searching for this flash on Newgrounds really terrible search engine, and am so glad I finally found it. I thought this was on my faves before, but apparently not. For a while I thought it was removed or something and I was worried. I'm glad it wasn't so I can get my fix. It's weird how every now and then this song just comes up in my head and I just HAVE to see this flash again to get "recharged".
Even though I don't get the inside jokes in it, it's always been one of my favorite music video flash's ever. I've always had a special place for 8 bit graphics and sound, so there's a nostalgic effect that I enjoy with the art here. I saw on another website what I thought was the same figure of the spray painter in the beginning here, and I wanted to find this again so I could verify if it's the same author, and I'm glad to see that it is. Now I'm feeling very stupid that I didn't even THINK to consider searching for the same author name rtil on the other site to find this one, and I wasted 2 hours looking for this. Oh well, I'll just watch it again and feel better.
Rated 5 / 5 stars March 21, 2012
Fantastic! I haven't listened to this song in quite the while. I have seen (I think the official) video of it and I do have to say I actually kind of like this one more! But anyway animation was just spot on and perfectly synced. Keep up the outstanding work!

WRAP-UP: More states raise budgets & CP

NASHVILLE (BP) -- More than half of the state Baptist conventions that participate in Southern Baptists' Cooperative Program approved increases for their 2013 budgets, reversing a five-year trend that peaked last year.
Montana Southern Baptists increased Cooperative Program giving for the first time in its 11-year history, sending 23 percent to the SBC next year. "We recognize that we are a great mission field in Montana, but we strongly desire to be engaged beyond our churches and communities," Montana Southern Baptist Convention Executive Director Fred Hewett said. The CP increase was encouraged by a 5 percent increase in giving by Montana churches.
After making dramatic cuts in their budget the past four years, Georgia Baptists had reduced spending to a level comparable to 1998. This year's $42.3 million budget marks the first increase. Mississippi Baptists passed a $32.3 million budget, the first time since 2009 that no decrease was made.
Michigan Baptists ended a decade-long trend of dipping into restricted funds to make up for income shortfalls, with messengers applauding a return of $158,000 of the $320,000 to that account and passage of a budget increase.
Alaska Baptists made the most extensive cuts, passing a $1.5 million budget that represents a 19 percent reduction from the current year, but managed to increase the CP portion forwarded to the SBC by 3 percent. Nevada Baptists cut their budget by 8 percent while increasing the SBC portion of CP receipts by half a percent.
Greater efficiency and realignment of funding priorities have allowed more states to join the movement to send a greater portion of undesignated Cooperative Program receipts from local churches on to the Southern Baptist Convention to fund the work of the International Mission Board (IMB) and North American Mission Board (NAMB) as well as six SBC seminaries, the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission and SBC operations by the Executive Committee.
Some states are dividing any state budget surplus equally with the SBC, including Alabama, Arkansas, California, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana and, for the first year, Missouri.
Two state conventions continue to surpass the 50/50 split -- the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention will continue to forward 55 percent to the SBC while retaining 45 percent for in-state missions and ministry. The Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia will forward 51 percent to the SBC while retaining 49 percent for in-state missions and ministry. Neither convention designates any shared ministry items before distributing CP funds.
About a third of the state convention budgets take "shared ministry" allocations off the top for items that they identify as benefitting both the state convention and SBC before dividing what remains between in-state and SBC use.
The items placed in that category vary from state to state, most often including retirement benefits paid for pastors and church staff members through GuideStone Financial Resources; Cooperative Program promotion; mission efforts previously funded or jointly funded by NAMB; and the expenses of the state Baptist paper. Among other items included in a few conventions are various personnel, property and technology expenses.
New Mexico reported the greatest portion in the shared ministry category, setting aside 23.15 percent before allocating 65 percent of the state's remaining CP contributions for in-state use and 35 percent of the remainder for SBC missions and ministry. In Georgia, 19.63 percent of budget expenditures are considered shared ministry, with the remainder split 50/50 between the state convention and the SBC.
Kentucky Baptists fast-tracked their move to an equal distribution of CP funds by increasing the shared ministries classification from 4 to 10 percent this year. Five other state conventions will employ this classification in 2013 -- Missouri, Baptist General Association of Virginia, Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia, Colorado and Alaska.
Missouri Baptist Convention Executive Director John Yeats said he is entering into this method with caution to include items flowing to the local church, amounting to 5 percent of the total budget. Church retirement benefits, it was noted, go to local ministers while a move toward free newspaper circulation will allow the Pathway to be distributed to the homes of readers.
The portion of the total budget classified as shared ministry is 5 percent in the Baptist General Association of Virginia, 6.23 percent in Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia, 8 percent in Colorado and 12.36 percent in Alaska. In the case of the Baptist General Association of Virginia which has three pre-set giving tracks and one a church can customize to fund SBC causes or those of the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, the portion allocated for shared ministries with SBC equals 5 percent of total BGAV contributions to NAMB.
Kansas-Nebraska's reported shared ministry expenses of 18 percent, calculated as a percentage of the state's entire budget less shared ministry items, reflects 27.69 percent of the CP portion of the two-state convention's adopted budget.
CP contributions comprise less than 30 percent of New England's total budget. Of their $709,419 goal in Cooperative Program receipts, the convention voted to allocate 25 percent of CP gifts to national and international SBC causes after a designation of $252,439 (35.53 percent) in shared ministry items.
South Carolina's adopted budget includes a 2.05 percent priority item for IMB, with the remaining SBC portion of CP remaining unchanged at 41 percent. South Carolina Baptists' direct allocation to the International Mission Board will increase, adopted last year at $400,236, will move to $583,768 next year.
Other state conventions reporting shared ministry expenses taken from the top of their budgets before allocating the remainder according to an approved split include Alabama (1.64 percent), Arkansas (0.61 percent), Illinois (10 percent), Michigan (20 percent), Oklahoma (13 percent) and Wyoming (8.4 percent). Alabama Baptists approved a plan to move toward a shared ministries model in 2014 with an amount not to exceed 10 percent of the base budget.
(Some states round their percentages to whole numbers, some round to the tenths of a percent and others round to the hundredths of a percent.)
State conventions raising the CP portion sent to the SBC include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Kentucky, Maryland/Delaware, Minnesota-Wisconsin, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New England, New York, North Carolina, Northwest, Pennsylvania/South Jersey, Tennessee, Southern Baptist Conservatives of Virginia and West Virginia.
Only Indiana Baptists chose to lower the out-of-state portion of CP, going from 38.5 to 37.5 percent as a one-year adjustment to the shift by NAMB toward increased funding for church planting efforts.
Messenger requirements were considered in California where an attempt to allow seating based on CP giving rather than church membership failed. Dakota Baptists removed a requirement that churches be members of associations to seat messengers and changed the giving standard from quarterly to "regular."
Iowa Baptists updated requirements for messengers to provide greater representation to smaller churches and those that give to the Cooperative Program and state missions offering, with final approval due next year.
Kentucky Baptists approved a change requiring a church to have contributed through the Cooperative Program in the prior year in order to be represented at annual meetings with a range of 1 to 10 messengers based on resident membership.
Some states chose to address which churches are considered cooperating, with California Baptists' Executive Board reporting only those that have contributed to the Cooperative Program and agree with the Baptist Faith & Message -- a move that qualifies 1,108 of the nearly 2,200 churches identifying themselves as members of the California Southern Baptist Convention. Missouri Baptists agreed to potentially reduce the total number of affiliated churches by 94 due to the lack of CP giving, with final notification being sent to those congregations.
Baptist General Association of Virginia messengers upheld a committee's decision to end affiliation with a church which ordained a homosexual man to the ministry this fall.
The Credentials Committee of Illinois Baptist State Assocation asked the convention president to appoint a study committee to determine whether the constitution gives adequate guidance to their work of considering new churches; messengers also recommended withdrawal of fellowship from eight churches considered non-cooperating.
Nevada Baptists passed a new constitution and bylaws clarifying both affiliation and messenger requirements. The new documents stipulate that churches must contribute through the Cooperative Program and be in harmony with the BF&M.
Task force reports were considered in a few states, addressing themes related to the Great Commission Resurgence endorsed by Southern Baptists in 2010.
The FutureFocus report in Alabama addressed church planting; church revitalization; global missions; disaster relief; and Cooperative Program and stewardship development. Utah-Idaho Baptists approved the 2020 Vision report encouraging doubling the number of churches to 300 and reaching 1 percent of the population in the two states by the end of 2020.
South Carolina Baptists approved bylaw changes that implemented recommendations adopted last year from the GCR Task Force, addressing trustee selection, adoption of BF&M as the convention's statement of faith, and ethnic diversity on the Committee on Committees and standing committees. A new 40-member task force will determine recommendations for the future focus of the state convention.
In California, in addition to defining cooperating churches, the Focus 21 Task Force addressed communication and the process of electing an executive director. The task force also received messenger approval for California Baptist University to solicit funds directly from churches. A proposal redefining CBU global trustees to allow members from other evangelical churches failed.
The Vision Task Force for the Baptist Convention of New York received approval of recommendations that address vision and effectiveness; cooperation and communication; constitution and bylaws; community and global impact; and church leadership matters.
Tennessee Baptists approved the Vision 2021 Team proposals of a new vision statement and core values while affirming BF&M and a plan to move toward a 50/50 distribution of CP funds with the SBC by 2018-19.
Wyoming Baptists received a report from the Future Study Group describing a future design, structure and decentralized staffing plan to encourage local support and ownership of strategy and ministry.
Florida Baptists were told that the state convention is "on target" in implementing every one of the six GCR-related recommendations approved two years earlier.
Iowa Baptists approved restructuring to utilize church "clusters" to support each other, work on common problems, pool resources, plant churches and further God's work in Iowa and beyond.

Dr. Pang, is one of the most corrupt doctors you will ever deal with. He is a doctor that makes deals with the insurance companies. This guy operated on me when i had a medial menicus tear and a patella problem, he performed surgery and said i had a synovectomy, so that he could benefit the insurance company. I spent over 2 years off of work because of this man. Do not let him treat you or do your Qualified Medical Evaluation or AME. He is bought and paid for and will only benefit the employers and insurance companies. I cannot say enough about this crook!

Q. Do you know where I can find a cute summer dress with the on seam pockets in plus size? I think that it is the sweetest fashion look out there this summer and I can't seem to find one to fit my larger frame (my bust in particular). Any advice you have would be great!
-Seemingly Cute
A. All these dresses have the pockets you're seeking that will fit your curvy figure, just remember, they're a style to use once in a while. Don't rely on the pockets since consistent use can change the look or fall of the dress.

Matthew Message - Feb. 18, 2013
February 18, 2013
With loving greetings from all souls at this station, this is Matthew. Since the December solstice the vast majority of Earths population has been tending to respective responsibilities and pursuing usual interests. The believers in the doomsday theory connected with the end of the Mayan calendar are feeling a tad foolish, yet relieved if the truth be told.
None of them knows what you do, that during the in-surge of light those few weeks ago Earth took her first steps into fourth density. Many of you still are feeling disappointed, even discouraged, because nothing of apparent change took place, and it is especially these dear ones whom we want to uplift and give renewed confidence.
Think of a newborn babe, who comes with specific talents, skills, interests, independent thoughts and goals. That package of potentials isnt at all evident in the infants earliest days; however, as this little person grows, the innate abilities start to emerge and with proper nurturing, they bloom with ever greater creativity and polish.
It is the very same process with Earths Golden Age, so recently birthed, and its package of potentials. The light intensity in your world has made this infant era extraordinarily fertile, you could say, making it easier now than ever before for the fruits of your labors to flourish.
This is a time to feel positive, optimistic, enthusiastic and victorious
you mastered the difficult stages of Earths ascension! Her leaving third density when she did was preordained, but the many millions among you who are slumbering to one extent or another might not have made it.
But they did, and it is with thanks both to the in-pouring of light during the solstice and to your radiance. Your light was essential then and it is just as essential now as you move forward in your world co-creating process.
All along you have had not only the power, but the responsibility to make your world whatever you want it to be. In the continuum that glorious world is fait accompli, but in linear time your mission goes on. And what comes next is exceedingly fulfilling and gratifyingrestoring to Earth and all her residents peace, health and harmony. You mustnt fall down on the job by letting disillusionment dim your light!
Indeed your universal family has helped immensely throughout Earths ascension process and they continue to do so in the many ways we have enumerated. Just as Earths entry into fourth density during the solstice was preordained, so was all of that extraterrestrial helpboth are major provisions of the Golden Age master plan that was established in consonance with Gaias vision for Earth.
Because your familys light is more intense than yours and their technologies are far advanced of your own, their assistance has been and will continue to be in ways that are beyond your current capabilities. However, the pace of societys progress always has been determined by the planets collective residentsit can be no other way because it is your world.
Let us speak for a moment about some recent developmentsfirst, Pope Benedict. A most unusual event indeed, a pope resigning, and the announced reason, advanced age, is factual in a way.
The pope seen publicly is a clone. Because it is aging rapidly and its energy is ebbing, it will not be able to function much longer and replacement clones are hard to come by these days. That is why the pontiff himself, who looks healthier and younger than the clone, will remain in seclusion. Depending upon his life span and the timing of the truth about clones coming forth, he may be seen later on looking quite refreshed.
The significance of this resignation is much more far reaching than a failing cloneit cracks open the door to truths that have been hidden for centuries, such as pedophilia in the priesthood has been rampant for over 1500 years.
The Vatican, which has been a major world player under the Illuminati umbrella, is the international headquarters of Satanism, and its untold wealth includes stolen art treasures acquired in collaboration with Nazis during World War II. Any pope who raised an objection to the mammoth deceit, unconscionable behavior and amassing of fortunes was short-lived.
Yet, possibly the most shocking revelation will be the disclosure of ancient records that will show how the Bible long ago was strategically alteredmost notably the fabricated story about Jesus crucifixion and resurrectionto give the church control over the Catholic populace.
When all of that becomes public knowledge, the Vaticans long reign will be over. The crumbling will be extremely sad and difficult for Catholics, but all devout Christians will be profoundly affected by learning that the foundation of their lives was built on lies.
Compassion for all of those souls can help them accept that the truth about Jesus life and teachings is far more valuable than what they have been taught. Their beliefs that are based in spirituality rather than in dogma will endure and the rituals based on falsehoods will fade away.
Media around the world also have been abuzz about North Koreas nuclear test. Launching a missile is one thing, exploding a warhead is quite another, and that test was not nearly as effective as that country would like the world to think. However, like Iran, North Korea is considered rogue and a threat that could lead to a nuclear war.
You know that there will be no such war and no attempt to detonate a nuclear warhead in space will be successful, but few others know that. So how to reduce the perceived dire threat those two countries pose is on the world stage, and in the United States it is sharing the spotlight with gun violence.
Beyond the personal tragedies of all who are directly affected, violence deeply touches the global conscience. As conscious and spiritual awareness continues expanding, all will understand that violence breeds only more violence, never harmony or cooperation or respect. Some scattered bellicose chatter will continue for a while, but increasing emphasis on negotiating differences eventually will result in international disarmament.
The incentive to stop warring and random violence goes beyond ending widespread death and grief. The other costs of wardevastation of land and natural resources, destruction of homes, businesses, infrastructureand of random violencelaw enforcement, legal and court proceedings, prisonsis a gargantuan collective expense.
Throughout your world many millions are languishing in prisons because they were captured in war or are incarcerated by unfair laws, corrupt judicial systems, excessively harsh penalties for minor offenses, wrongful conviction or mental disorders. This shameful blot on your history will be cleared in stages as will treating mental illness as long as that condition is an aspect of life.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WDRB) -- It took Rick Pitino a long time to reach the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. On his way into Springfield's Symphony Hall for Sunday's Enshrinement Ceremony, a fan yelled out congratulations, and told him it was overdue.Pitino waved. But as he made a speech to a crowd that included Larry Bird, Pat Riley, Jerry Colangelo, John Havlicek, his fellow inductees and a veritable Who's Who of basketball, Pitino had another thought."I really, looking out there, don't know what the heck I'm doing here, to be honest" Pitino said. "The people in this room just blow me away. The prowess on the court, the prowess on the sidelines is incredible. Coaches don't get in the Hall of Fame. Players put them in the Hall of Fame. And I've had a great journey."Flanked by Hubie Brown and Dick Vitale, who presented him, Pitino took the crowd on that journey through anecdotes and lessons he learned in a 17-minute speech that wrapped up the program.At Boston University, he said, "I learned how to build the right way."He talked of his days there, with training meals at pizza joints, riding buses to every road game and the small crowds at home. "We gave away champagne at a midnight madness," he said. "Nine drunks showed up, and no one else." His Boston U players, at a party Saturday night, told him something he didn't know. They told him they called him "Pop." He said he was amazed, because he was only two or three years older than they were. Then they told him it was an acronym, and stood for "Prisoners of Pitino," for their marathon practice habits in the days before the NCAA passed its 20-hour rule. During his speech, he said, "Don't talk that way too much, because of recruiting."At Providence, Pitino said, "I learned how to dream. I always thought anything is possible after coaching that team."Pitino paused to talk a bit more about his time at Kentucky. He called it "eight years of Camelot" and said, "I never had a bad day at Kentucky.From UK, Pitino said, "I learned all about pressure every, single day. It was unbelievable pressure and it was very difficult and that pressure brought out the best in everybody.""I'm very, very thankful to those Kentucky players," Pitino added, "because that's the reason I stand here today." After appearing to skip over his time with the Celtics, Pitino went back to it. From that franchise, he said, "I learned more than I gave. . . . I learned patience and humility."And finally, Louisville, the longest stop in his career, Pitino said, "taught me for 13 years what a family is all about. I've learned so much throughout the years, and I'm continuing to learn. . . . My best friends are the AD (Tom Jurich), SID (Kenny Klein), business manager (Kevin Miller), equipment manager (Vinny Tatum) and executive (Jordan Sucher). They're my closest friends in life. They taught me what it is to develop a home and stay."Pitino called his family "the greatest team I've ever coached, without question."Afterward, he said the only time he worried about getting too emotional in the speech was when he mentioned his two sisters in law, who lost their husbands.He said his goal going into the day was to thank all the people he should thank. Afterward, he expressed satisfaction that he had."I don't know if Forbes 500 measures a man how wealthy a man is in friendship," Pitino said. "But I'm the Warren Buffett of friendship, with all the friends I have."It was a difficult task for Pitino, all the thank-yous. But it was up to his friends and colleagues to describe his place in the basketball landscape, and his significance at his various stops. A short time after the ceremony, former President Bill Clinton Tweeted his congratulations.C.M. Newton, who hired Pitino at UK, said Pitino "meant everything to Kentucky. Had we hired the wrong person at that point in time, we'd have gone the way of UCLA. Instead, he gave us instant credibility."Dick Vitale noted Pitino's innovations, his embracing of the three-point shot, his willingness to use full-court pressure and ability to play a 10-man rotation."He stayed ahead of the game, and still is," Vitale said. "He should have been in the Hall of Fame long ago. I've been pushing him for years, and I'm thrilled to see this day."Jurich said he was pleased by Pitino's tribute to Louisville, but that he's more pleased that Louisville is Pitino's last stop, and his longest."He passed the praise on to everybody else, and that's the type of person he is," Jurich said. "It was an honor to be in the room."After the enshrinement, Richard Pitino, walking out of the hall while his father was still posing for pictures, said, "You see everybody around here, and it's all the greats of the game. Then you realize, he's with them, he's one of the greats of the game."

Sup Friday?
Slept over at boy's to escape the heat. Awoken by him, all ready for work, slipping back into bed with me.
Did groceries this afternoon. All I've eaten today is cake and ice cream. So ready for swimsuit season.
Watching "Girls" now, finally. I can't even get over how similar it is to my life. I'm not the only one who doesn't have my shit together; neither do characters on a TV show. Real life, what's up?

A partner in a Phoenix Vietnamese restaurant has been arrested and booked into jail on two counts of second-degree murder after a fatal stabbing at the restaurant Thursday morning.
Two brothers died after they were stabbed, said Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy Thompson. He said the two were involved in a fight between two other business partners at shortly before 11 a.m. at Pho 35 Vietnamese Noodle House at 3515 W. Northern Ave.
Thompson said Tony Phung, 51, was arrested and suspected of stabbing the two victims.
Phung, his brother, Tim Phung, Timmy Hoang and his brother, Brandon Hoang, are co-owners of the restaurant.
Tony Phung said he and Brandon Hoang got into a disagreement over the hiring and firing of restaurant staff and the argument escalated after a couple hours, according to a court document.
Soon, all four were involved in a physical fight in the dining area and Tony Phung grabbed a knife and stabbed Timmy Hoang and then went after his brother, the document stated.
The Hoang brothers staggered out and collapsed just outside the front door, witnesses told police. Brandon Hoang was holding his brother when police and fire units arrived, according to the witnesses, who also said they didn't know who started the argument.
The Hoangs were taken to a hospital, where they died of their wounds.
Officers said they used a translator to aid in the investigation.

WSC Makes Headlines Has Weber State really grown up? Area we really big leaguers? The following article appeared in the Morning Advocate, Baton Rouge, La. :-C MORNING ADVOCATE, Baton Rouge. Wed.. Nov. IT. 1965 1 B Manaoffl frem Bud Montef Hottest Thing On The Gridiron Ever hear of Weber State? Well, bow long have you been following sports? This summer in typing out the nation's collegiate big-wigs' schedules for a schedule page run each year m the Advocate we ran across Weber State. On checking we fotmd they were a member of the Big Sky Athletic Conference and last year woo none and lost tkree. The school is located at Ogden, Utah and Its head coach is a fellow wtth a simple name, Sarkis Arslaniaa. Their nickname is the Wildcats and their cotore art Purple and White. Even the AP didn't know about the school at the start of the season it seemed impossible to get the scores of the Weber State Wildcats. Why are they the hottest thing on the gridiron? They could beat Notre Dame and friend Jim Wlnfro has compiled the scores' to prove It. Why, oh why hasnt one of the bowls, picked up Weber State instead of those elevens with two or thre Jtaajwa. Any team that can beat Notre Dame certainly daqorvM recognition. Weber State has won eight games and lost one, that a IS- loss to Montana State. Pretty nifty record? We think the bowl people must have been hiding tbr beads In a bushel basket. The greatest eleven in the land and uninvited to a bowl. Sort of pitiful isnt it? Just think what the bowl would have going for It. A team no one knows about, even the wire services. None have scouted them outside their own league so their attack would be a complete secret. Then think of the cowboys from Montana descending upon New Orleans, Miami or Dallas. And everyone knows cowboys spend a lot of money when they hit a. big city. At least everyone ought to know If they've got a TV nt in their home and who hasn't! Then the school is at the site where the golden spike was driven to connect the first trans-continental railroad. Why they could dig up that spike and bring It wfcir them. You got to admit these bowl people just aren't thinking. Of course we know why Weber State is not recognised by the bowls. These people schedule their visits to the games during the season and who would want to offer to go to Ogden, Utah to scout Weber State. Possibly grandma, but not the average bowl selection aaember. He kind of leans toward Miami, New Orleans, Houston, Atlanta and the bright lights. Why.ftey tell us except for Saturday they tarn the lights off at 7 p.m. in Ogden. You'll never find a respectable bowl selection member In a city like that. So It appears that the flower of America's gridiron will wilter unseen this year. But then a rose smells or something like that Here's the way5' "Conch" Wtnfree his figured out the bowlers have bowled into the putter.

Browning Contributes Stock Addition of the new numerical - control machine has enlightened the technology department and put it into the automation age. Weber State College Manufacturing Engineers' Club Seminar held last Friday featured the machine as an important aspect to the industrial age and will provide practical experience for manufacturing majors. The modern tape command gsMSHtem,u l . I '. . mm pun mi. mm iihhiuiiiiiiibwiii wwM.mwMmu?mwwmwmm'&$ ' " M-' : ? - ) machine was partly acquired through the generous donation of Val A. Browning of BrowningArms Co., and this is the second contribution to the college inthetech- . nology department. In 1963, he contributed $5,000 worth of stock ' which the school used to purchase : a surface grinder. Stock valued at $7,200 donated by Mr. Browning has enabled WSC to buy a modern tape command machine for use in the Technical Education Division. The new tape machine will be used in the winter quarter for a new series of classes in numer- : ical ' control. Dr. Wendell L. Esplin, director of the technical education division reported, "use of this machine will enable us to expand both the machine shop program and the manufacturing engineering technology program and can be used for two year and four year students." He added Weber's technical education program is being recognized by many industries, who send their representatives here throughout the year to offer high paying jobs to the students. One of the latest offers was from General Electric Co., which sent its manufacturing recruiter, John E, Jones, from its New York offices. Mr. Jones hired Lowell Larsen, who will complete a bachelor degree course at the close of this quarter in Manufacturing Engineering Technology, and will begin work in the near future at $7,800 a year.

|Associated Students of Weber College; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

The 2013 Defenders of Freedom Open House and Air Show at Offutt Air Force Base south of
Omaha has been canceled because of federal budget cuts.
According to a statement released by the Air Force, the event, scheduled for Aug. 24-25, had to be
canceled to minimize the impact of the sequestration and other budget uncertainties to military readiness.
"The Department of Defense and the Air Force are
facing difficult fiscal challenges, which requires us to make some tough
decisions here at Offutt," said Col. John Rauch, 55th Wing commander. "One of
those tough decisions includes canceling this year's air show. We sincerely
enjoy opening our gates to the public and appreciate the tremendous support we
get from Bellevue, Omaha and the surrounding communities, but with the current
guidance and fiscal restraints we can't host an air show."
The show has been held annually since 1972.
No dates for future Defenders of Freedom shows have been set.

To stand in the main gallery at Orlando Museum of Art is to be surrounded by greatness.
Playwright Edward Albee, of "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" fame, looks out from one wall; artist Robert Rauschenberg from another. There's "Tales of the South Pacific" author James A. Michener; over there is Marjory Stoneman Douglas, the writer and environmentalist.
Pulitzer Prize winners, critical darlings, innovators and thinkers: The exhibition is a snapshot of the artistic and literary minds that have graced Florida through the decades.
Actually, it's a lot more than a snapshot. It's an unparalleled collection of black-and-white photographic portraits by Jimm Roberts, the longtime Orlando resident who from behind his camera has created an archive of Florida's cultural royalty.
"There are a lot of healthy egos in this group, that's for sure," Roberts says with a chuckle — and an undertone of genuine respect.
"Southernmost Art and Literary Portraits: Fifty Internationally Noted Artists and Writers in Florida by Jimm Roberts" is the final exhibition in Orlando Museum's of Art "Made in Florida" season. The museum also presented a retrospective of Orlando artist Barbara Sorensen's work, paintings of Florida landscapes and a Florida photography exhibit this season.
The OMA exhibition is the first time Roberts' life work has been pulled together in this way.
Roberts' subjects all spent time in Florida, where he photographed them, many as part of Key West's literary heyday.
"In the winter months, Key West was home to more Pulitzer Prize nominees than any other city in the world," says Roberts, 72. "It was a time no one thought would end — but it did."
Roberts is sensitive to history. He fell in love with his first home in Orlando — an old-fashioned barbershop when he first saw it, the sort with the proprietor's lodgings over the business.
When the city considered tearing down the distinctive building in the 1980s as part of a street-improvement project, he spoke up, and the building was saved.
Roberts, a former Navy sailor who was raised in North Carolina and Georgia, has lived and worked in that building, on Orange Avenue north of downtown, for 40 years. Near the intersection of Princeton Street and Orange, Roberts' studio is easily recognized by the large sign bearing his name; he adapted the two-m spelling of Jimm because he thought it "looked good" when he signed his work.
Roberts began the "Southernmost Art and Literary Portraits" project in the early 1980s as a tribute to those who had inspired him. His first subject was artist John Chamberlain in 1983; the portraits were taken until 1999, when he photographed writers Ann Beattie and Annie Dillard. In 2006, the collection was published by Mercer University Press.
"I had no great aspiration for a published book or museum exhibition," he says. "It was just going to be for my own enjoyment."
It took one of his subjects, writer John Malcolm Brinnin, to point out the historical value of his collection.
"We were watching the sun set and he turned to me and said, 'Jimm, you know your collection's becoming a unique record, a portrait of a passing generation?'" Roberts recalls. "That was a prophetic observation because four months later he was gone."
More than 60 percent of the collection's subjects are no longer living.
"A lot of it gets emotional for me," he says. "When I first saw all those faces in one place at one time…" His voice trails off.
The emotion is compounded by the fact he maintained friendly relations with many of subjects.
Shakespeare scholar Philip Burton, who died in 1985, always invited Roberts for a glass of sherry on Shakespeare's birthday each spring. Roberts recalls swimming in the Gulf of Mexico with artist James Rosenquist on a whim — though neither had suits.

SPOKANE, Wash. -- Washington State Patrol troopers were involved in a pursuit that ended at the suspect's home in Airway Heights just after midnight Saturday. After a standoff involving the Spokane County Sheriff's Office SWAT Team, the suspect surrendered.
Just after midnight Saturday, an Airway Heights man, Brandon G. Hagreen, was observed committing multiple traffic violations. A WSP Trooper attempted to stop Hagreen on westbound I-90, near Altamont.
A pursuit ensued, ending at Hagreen's residence in the Airway Heights area. Airway Heights Police Department, Spokane International Airport Police and the Spokane County Sheriff's Office assisted the WSP. Hagreen's family, who were in the residence at the time, came outside and cooperated with law enforcement's attempts to coax Hagreen from the home.
The Spokane County Sheriff's Office SWAT team was activated and a search warrant was obtained to enter the residence and arrest Hagreen. During SWAT operations, Hagreen exited the house and was arrested without incident.
Hagreen, who had an outstanding warrant for DUI, is being charged with Attempting to Elude a Police Officer, Reckless Driving, Driving Under the Influence and Driving on a Revoked Driver's License.
Hagreen was booked into the Spokane County Jail.

My original plan was to have only one character per illustration but that changed when I finished the blue bomber and it felt like it was missing something. So I impulsively threw in Samus. lol. I think they make a great team, don't you?

Madonna may get kicked out of her Central Park West apartment after neighbors are complaining about the noise level. Read more on the lawsuit against Madonna below.
A neighbor of Madonna's named Karen George has filed a lawsuit claiming that Madonna has turned her apartment into a rehearsal studio. She says everyone in the apartment building is having to deal with the"blaring music, stomping and shaking walls" daily.
The legal documents stated there was, "unreasonably high-decibel, amplified music" that seeps through the walls, ceilings and radiators for three hours a day.
The co-op board has already threatened to evict Madonna and everyone in the building is angry over the daily blaring of music.

WEDNESDAY, June 1 (HealthDay News) -- Undergoing an operation
can be scary, but University of Michigan researchers offer some
reassuring news: Deaths among those having high-risk surgery have
fallen substantially in recent years.
Much of this is due to many high-risk cancer operations being
done in hospitals that do a lot of them and to overall better
compliance with safety guidelines, the researchers noted.
"Overall, surgery in the United States is getting safer," said lead researcher Dr. Jonathan F. Finks, an assistant professor of surgery at University of Michigan Health Systems. "However, there is still room for improvement. Our focus should be on strategies that improve outcomes across all procedures."
The report is published in the June 2 issue of the
New England Journal of Medicine.
For the study, Finks and colleagues used Medicare data to look
at cancer and cardiac surgeries among an older population between
1999 and 2008.
"With complex cancer operations, operative mortality declined between 11 percent for resection of esophageal cancer and 19 percent for resection of pancreas cancer," Finks said. "With major cardiovascular surgery, mortality declined between 8 percent for carotid endarterectomy [removal of plaque] and 36 percent for repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm."
With cancer surgery in particular, mortality has dropped in
large part because more patients are having their surgery in safer,
high-volume hospitals, Finks explained. "For many high-risk
procedures, hundreds of lower volume hospitals in the U.S. have
stopped doing them," he explained.
However, the reasons for declining deaths with cardiovascular
surgery remain uncertain, Finks said. "Possible reasons include use
of minimally invasive techniques in the repair of abdominal aortic
aneurysms," he added.
Other improvements include the development of large national
registries and quality improvement initiatives from surgical
societies, as well as public reporting initiatives and regional
quality improvement groups, Finks said.
"Finally, in the wake of the 1999 Institute of Medicine report on preventable medical errors, hospitals and surgeons have placed increasing emphasis on optimizing patient safety," he said.
However, although deaths during complex surgery have dropped,
outcomes still vary across hospitals, Finks added.
"For a small number of complex cancer operations, referral to a high-volume hospital should continue to be encouraged. With most complex operations, however, other quality improvement strategies are likely to be more effective than simple referral to a high-volume center," he said.
Dr. Tomas Salerno, chief of the division of cardiothoracic
surgery at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, said
that "this issue of volume and risk of surgery is something that
has been debated for quite awhile."
It does seem to make sense that hospitals that do more of a
given procedure do it better, he said. "This applies to a lot of
procedures," Salerno said. However, it doesn't seem to apply to
heart bypass surgery, he added. The reasons for this aren't clear,
Salerno said.
"But whether this applies for other complex procedures is not answered by this study. So, if you are going to have a major procedure it may be better done in larger centers," he said.
Salerno said he thinks the patient-doctor relationship is
probably as important in selecting where you want a procedure
