ATLANTA, Ga. – No. 8 Georgia Tech took a 6-1 lead into the ninth inning and held off a late Rutgers rally to escape with a 6-4 victory over the Scarlet Knights in the first game and the Yellow Jackets recorded a 13-4 victory in the nightcap of a baseball doubleheader before 1,163 fans at Russ Chandler Stadium Saturday in Atlanta, Ga.
In the series opener, the Yellow Jackets (6-1) jumped on the board with a run in the third when the second of three-consecutive Georgia Tech singles back up the middle scored Tony Plagman (hit by pitch) for the game's first run.
Meanwhile, Georgia Tech starter Deck McGuire, a Freshman All-American last season, retired the first 12 Scarlet Knights in order before surrendering a leadoff single to fellow 2008 Freshman All-American, Jaren Matthews (Teaneck, N.J.) in the fifth.
GT's Matt Skole followed a Luke Murton leadoff double with a home run to right field in the sixth to push the Yellow Jackets' lead to 3-0. After giving up a third hit later in the inning, starter Casey Gaynor (Toms River, N.J.) was replaced by lefty reliever Steven Zavala (Randolph, N.J.), who retired the next two batters to end the frame.
Junior Dan Betteridge (Sewell, N.J.) recorded Rutgers' (1-5) second hit of the contest, finding a hole in the right side for a one-out single in the seventh. A Matthews line-drive single followed, which moved Betteridge to third. Junior Jayson Hernandez (Belmar, N.J.) then produced Rutgers' first run of the game with a sacrifice fly to right field to plate Betteridge. The score ended a streak of 16 scoreless innings for McGuire, dating back to last season.
Georgia Tech extended its lead to 6-1 with a three-run eighth, highlighted by a Plagman two-run home run.
After scattering four hits in eight innings with just one run and seven strikeouts without a walk, McGuire handed the ball over to the bullpen. The Scarlet Knights mounted a rally against reliever Thomas Nichols with four hits. A two-run double to the gap in right-center field from Hernandez and an RBI single to left field from Luis Feliz (New Brunswick, N.J.) with two outs allowed RU to pull within 6-4 and prompted another call to the Yellow Jacket bullpen.
Reliever Mark Pope came in to face Jarred Jimenez (Monroe, N.J.), who represented the tying run, and the Georgia Tech reliever preserved the victory for the Yellow Jackets with a strikeout.
McGuire (2-0) earned the victory, while Gaynor (0-2) struck out five while he allowed three runs on nine hits in 5.1 innings of work in the loss. Pope picked up his second save of the season for the Yellow Jackets.
In the second game, Rutgers jumped out to a 2-0 lead midway through the second but Georgia Tech responded with 12 unanswered runs in the first six innings to break the game open en route to a 13-4 victory
Rutgers put its first two hitters of the second inning on base thanks to a Matthews single and a Hernandez walk and both were sacrificed over into scoring position where Jimenez lifted a ball to deep right field to bring home Matthews on the sacrifice fly. On the next play, senior Vinnie Sangemino (Nutley, N.J.) ripped a ball down the left-field line to score Hernandez before being tagged out at second while attempting to stretch a double on the hit.
Georgia Tech scored a run in the second, three in the third, five in the fourth and three more in the sixth to build a 12-2 lead through six frames. RU starter Dennis Hill (Hillsdale, N.J.) was chased out of the game in the fourth inning.
A single from Feliz and three walks led to a pair of Scarlet Knight runs in the top of the seventh before Georgia Tech added a run in the bottom half of the frame on a Jay Dantzler home run to make it 13-4.
Matthews led Rutgers with four hits in the doubleheader.
Rutgers and Georgia Tech will close the three-game series with a 1:00 p.m. game Sunday. Freshman righty Charlie Law (Mainland, N.J.) will get the ball for the Scarlet Knights against sophomore righty Brandon Cumpton for the Yellow Jackets.

Blevins wins House District 25 race
Leading the pack by 20 percent, Dave Blevins defeated three Republican challengers Tuesday in the race for House District 25, which covers the Powell area.
Golf club, city discuss extension Monday
Golf is on the agenda again Monday night for the Powell City Council.
Last month, councilmen voted 5-2 to extend the Powell Golf Club's operating agreement for three months rather than a full year. That uncertainty has made it difficult for the golf club to sell memberships for next year or to raise more matching funds — two things the council does want the golf club to do.
House District 25 candidates bring diverse political views
Differ on social issues, shared focus on economic development
All four candidates running to represent Powell in the Legislature are registered Republicans, but their political views cross the GOP gamut.
EDITORIAL: Get informed, get ready to vote
A week from today, voters will make important decisions to determine who our future leaders will be.
The primary election allows Republicans and Democrats to choose their candidates for the general election in November.
Leisure pool closed as liner repairs continue
For swimmers, it's been a disappointedly dry summer at the Powell Aquatic Center's leisure pool.
For three weeks, the leisure pool has been closed while repairs continue on a bubbling liner.
EDITORIAL: Learning from Heart Mountain's history
Weekend pilgrimage explores important questions, history
August marks two significant anniversaries in Park County.
EDITORIAL: New Yellowstone winter use plan looks positive
In the ongoing saga of managing winter use in Yellowstone National Park, the latest turn in a new direction is encouraging.
The proposed winter use plan allows for more public access and keeps Yellowstone's East Entrance open during the winter.
EDITORIAL: Fair facilities improvements continue
Nostalgia runs deep at the Park County Fair. At the annual fair this week, you can count on longtime traditions — carnival rides, the demolition derby, the junior livestock sale, blue-ribbon worthy handiwork and plenty of fair food.
Fittingly, this year's theme is "Where Traditions Remain and Memories Begin."
Councilmen debate future of golf course management
Contract with Powell Golf Club approved for three months; council split on decision
The Powell City Council is extending its current contract with the Powell Golf Club for three months instead of a year, leaving future management of the city-owned golf course uncertain.
EDITORIAL: Avoiding scams
Always be cautious, double check details
When reading the blotters from the Powell Police Department and Park County Sheriff's Office, certain types of reports recur each month. Complaints of barking dogs. Callers who see teens acting suspiciously. And, time and time again, reports of scams.
Sometimes the caller suspects a phone call or message may be a scam. Other times, it's too late and a resident has unfortunately fallen for a fraudulent scheme.

Shirred Eggs
Photo: Annabelle Breakey; Styling: Dan Becker
Something magical happens when you bake eggs with cream: They turn into a dense, silky custard, becoming much more than the sum of their parts.
Yield: Makes 1 serving
- 1/4 teaspoon butter
- 2 teaspoons heavy whipping cream
- 2 eggs
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon minced chives
- 1 tablespoon grated hard cheese, such as parmesan
- 1. Preheat oven to 375°.
- 2. Coat a 6-oz. ramekin with butter. Pour whipping cream into ramekin.
- 3. Crack eggs into ramekin, coaxing yolks toward the center, using a spoon if necessary.
- 4. Sprinkle eggs with salt and pepper, top with chives, then cheese.
- 5. Bake until set around edges and still a bit jiggly in the center, about 12 minutes. (For firm yolks, bake an additional 3 minutes.) Let sit 2 to 3 minutes to set and serve immediately.
For easier oven transfer, set dish, or dishes if making more than one serving, on a large baking pan.

Why does America spend far more than any other country on medical care, yet its health care system is ranked 34th in the world by the World Health Organization?
As a busy physician in an active practice, Dennis Gottfried, M.D., understands the strengths and weaknesses of American medicine. In "Too Much Medicine: A Doctor's Prescription for Better and More Affordable Health Care," he describes the problems in the U.S. health care system and how medical decisions are really made. He discusses how overtesting and overtreatment do not lead to better care — and often do more harm than good.
Dr. Gottfried has been a general internist in private practice in Connecticut for more than 25 years and is an associate professor of medicine at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine. He completed a residency in internal medicine at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., in 1976. Learn more about him on his website.

Soft as a Baby's Bottom!Shaving cream used to be the bane of my existence, until I came across this product. I've put many a shave cream to the test trying many store bought brands and specialty products hoping to find the perfect one, but all it took was this one from Anthony to make me a lifelong customer. The cream produces a great lather and gives a fantastically smooth and close shave, eliminating razor burn (which has always been an issue). Every time I shave with this product, my wife always tells me how soft my face is and my son no longer experiences any kind of rash when I rub my face against his, kissing his cheeks! I absolutely love this product recommend it to any man!
Best Shave I've HadI bought this shaving cream for my husband to try. After he used it, he said it was really. I had to see for myself, so I tried it. I couldn't believe how smooth the skin felt afterward. The best part is that that was the closest shave I've evEr had!!! I'm definitely not going back to my shaving cream.
They're right indeed!I got a sample of your shaving cream when I ordered at an online store, and it's awesome. Ever since I began to shave I struggled with my skin, razor burn etc... Seems like that's over now!
Smoother than ever before!This shaving cream is amazing. I get a significantly closer shave with no razor burn, which I used to get almost every time I pulled out a new razor. My wife and kids have all commented about how nice it feels to touch my face after a shave. I shave every-other day now, instead of every day. This is unquestionably the best shaving product I have used, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone that shaves.
Feels Great!I have only used this for the first time today but it have me such a close shave. I have oily/dry skin and it seemed to help with the oil and made my skin feel very soft and smooth after shaving. And a little goes a long way. I would recommend this shaving cream to anyone!
Best Shaving ProductI absolutely love this product. It gives a smooth, clean shave even with the hard water usually found in hotels. I usually cringe at the idea of shaving while traveling but with Anthony Logistics shave cream, I can be assured of a good, non irritated shave.
Anthony Recommends
Glycolic Facial Cleanser
Starting at: $26.00
Pre-Shave Oil$24.00
After Shave Balm$22.00

Confirmation of pluripotency is a critical experimental step when studying human embryonic and/or induced pluripotent stem cells. This application note from R&D Systems presents a quick and simple protocol to confirm the ability of your starting cell population to differentiate towards ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm lineages. Stem cell research studies most often require weeks of cell culture before an experimental hypothesis can be made. The ability to verify pluripotency at an early stage using the Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Functional Identification Kit provides valuable insight that may prevent weeks of wasted effort and reagents.

Taking care of your liver with LiverActive
The liver is the biggest organ of our body, and probably the one that works the most. The liver has a weight of about 1.4 kg and plays a fundamental role on the digestive process. The liver is located on the upper right area of the abdominal cavity, right below the diaphragm and above the stomach, the right kidney and intestines. The liver has a conic shape and has a dark reddish brown coloration. The blood that is carried to the liver comes from two different sources: oxygenated blood arrives to the liver through the hepatic artery, and the blood rich in nutrients comes through the hepatic portal vein.
The liver receives permanently around a thirteen percent of the total amount of blood of the organism. The liver has two important lobules which are formed by thousands of small lobules. The liver has a capacity of self-regeneration.
It is responsible for many functions including the cleansing of toxins, along with the endocrine system it stores and releases sugar on blood depending on the needs of the organism; it also stores the fat of the ingested foods. The liver also assembles the lipoproteins which are in charge of transporting the cholesterol and other lipids which are required by the organism. The liver excretes a product known with the name of bile which helps to remove the disposal products of the liver. All the blood that comes out from the stomach and intestines passes through the liver. The liver then processes this blood and decomposes the nutrients and drugs in more usable forms. There have been identified around five hundred important functions related to the liver.
Another function of the liver is to produce cholesterol to employ it on the production of bile salts. The liver also stores important nutrients such as A vitamin, B12 vitamin, D vitamin and iron. The liver is in charge of producing the proteins of the blood plasma. The liver is also in charge of transforming the toxic ammonia in urea which is less toxic and can be disposed through the urine.
But one of the most important functions of the liver is to remove impurities from blood and to control the levels of sugar. When the liver degrades noxious substances, the sub-products are excreted to the bile or to the blood. The bile sub-products enter on the intestine and finally they are dispatched from the organism on the feces. The sub-products found on blood are filtered by kidneys and removed from the body on the urine. Liver cleansing provides a wide variety of benefits, for instance it is useful to promote a better absorption of nutrients, which helps to regulate many processes in the organism, for instance a liver cleansing will help to fight insomnia by regulating sleep cycles, and it also helps to improve mental processes. LiverActive promotes the proper performance of the liver through a natural and effective internal cleansing; this product is formulated only with the best natural ingredients for that purpose.

Watch the skies tonight!
Hey folks! Check your meteor calendars! Tonight marks the next major event of 2012, with the Lyrid meteor shower. Best viewed from the northern hemisphere, look to the northeast after midnight until dawn. The meteors will peak then, radiating off the east side of the bright star in Lyra up there (although you could see them anywhere in the sky).
Here's a complete guide from EarthSky on what to look for tonight. Best of all? No moon to get in the way!
Meteor Showers 2012
A calendar of all the major meteor showers taking place in 2012 that I drew up.
Of course, this isn't all of the meteor events this year. Only the ones with the best chance of being visible. I chose only events with a Zenith Hourly Rate (ZHR, the number of peak events per hour) above 10. You should also consider the moon phase for that date, which I did not include.
How to use this:
- The date on the left is the early morning after midnight on the day it will peak (so "October 7" is between midnight and sunrise on the morning of the 7th).
- The constellation represents the point in the sky that the shower will "originate" from.
- Choose someplace dark, away from city lights, and bring a blanket and a friend.
- Enjoy.
To calculate the sunrise/sunset for your area on a specific date, go here. Many more details about each event can be found in this summary from EarthSky. Some events will favor the North or South Hemispheres, but such is life.

Having claimed for sixty years that he was no more than a conscripted flak helper in World War Two, Günter Grass now admits that he actually served with the Waffen SS. He also explains that his first exposure to "real racism" came after the war, in an American prisoner of war camp, where the black soldiers were treated as second class citizens. Roman Bucheli finds the Nobel Prize laureate's recent revelations a little hard to swallow.

How To Deal With A Hangover
If you should ever wake up with a massive hangover, here are some great tips to make it easier for you to look fresh, all day long.
1. Water
As soon as you get out of bed, drink the largest glass of water that you can find. Make sure it's room temperature or warmer, and add juice from half a small lemon to help remove the toxins you've taken in.
2. Eat a green breakfast
Reach for organic foods to counter the acid-forming alcohol you drank.
3. Take a warm-to-cold shower
Take a warm shower and allow the showerhead to run over your lower back for a few minutes, alternating to cold water for a few minutes.
This stimulates the adrenal glands of your kidneys, and helps to flush out the booze.
4. Face First
To fight off the puffiness in your face, fill the sink with cold water and throw in a couple of trays of ice. Next, dip your face in for as long as you can hold your breath, then remove it and take a few deep breaths. Repeat this ten times.
5. Moisture plus Radiance
Combine your regular moisturizer with an energizing ingredient that contains things like ginseng, vitamin B5, vitamin E, magnesium, copper and zinc, to bring life back into your skin.
6. Bright Eyes
You may wish to douse them with Visine, depending on the level of redness, and apply a soothing, de-puffing eye cream.
7. Take the red out
Tone down the red in your skin with a high SPF sunscreen that has a slight tint.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Meh, It sounds like the beginning of the end to me. Wow has gotten boring because the took the idiosyncrasies out. All the classes have been normalized, races and classes are well, 5 years old. yes, we got 2 new races, and 1 new class, whoopie. We should of had Worgen and Goblins 3 years ago, the hunter class should of been expanded upon to create a ranger class with no pet. Same for Warlock, maybe a sorcerer or something that summons armies on demand, whatever. A "defender" specialization that allows warriors 2 sheilds, a dark paladin, sub-races, expanded professions. Sounds like 5 more levels of bigger crits, killing bigger bosses, with new takes on old mechanics. Oh, a "spike" from below, is it IC? is it Stone? is it Bug horns? now, now it's Magma plumes of Cataclysm (whatever, making stuff up here) who cares if a mage is better (even far better dps) against boss X, make Boss Y THE boss you want a warloc on, Maybe instead of an acheivment, an extra drop for doing boss X without the mage, or make the mobs all the way up to him uber mage killers (proposed class there :D)
How about dual class?, or similar. Some freeking variety. instead every raiding mage being 53/3/15 (or whatever) with the same gear and rotation... tired of the raid leader PALADIN telling me in every freeking raid (because he reads the theorcrafting on elitist, for example) you should have 5 points in talent X, your DPs is down .00001% because of it..where I am the mage. how this, I am a ninja/ranger/necromancer with 5 talent points from hunter I got from some super cool special quest chain you have to take. Hows that fit in your calculator? Oh yeah, and I get a buff from lumber jacking and fletching professions. what too many class/prof/skill/talent combos to have optimized? good stfu and mark the targets I will go kill for you...
Ok, rant over. Sorry, wow got boring a long time ago. this will just be "new" boring as they take the lore out of it even more.

Project Speak Out is a new initiative in which New York Asian Women's Center, in partnership with three other Asian-American Domestic Violence agencies in New York City, will work to change community attitudes towards domestic violence. We want to stop the violence BEFORE it starts.
I feel like I have been preparing for this position most of my life, volunteering with domestic violence and sexual-assault victims within the immigrant community and beyond since I was a child.
If you know anyone who needs our support programs or shelter services, or would like to volunteer, please let me know. For my position, I need to recruit at least 50 volunteers who will go into the Asian community within Elmhurst, Queens, and try to engage community members to educate, treat and prevent Domestic violence and other forms of intimate partner violence. We also need volunteers for the 24-hour hotline, and to accompany our clients to different appointments.

Arcade Fire. (at The Schottenstein Center)
- It's time for the FCC to stand up for Americans instead of ruining the internet (via thisistheverge)
via HuffPo:
As Texas Republicans struggle to win over women voters, a staffer at a prominent GOP political consulting firm has registered a new political action committee in the state called "Boats 'N Hoes PAC."
The San Antonio Express-News first reported that Shaun Nowacki, comptroller for Blakemore & Associates, registered the PAC with the Texas Ethics Commission earlier this month. Nowacki's firm has been hired by the campaigns of Texas Republicans Greg Abbott for governor, Dan Patrick for lieutenant governor, and Donna Campbell for state senator.
The purpose of the PAC is unclear. It's registered as a "general purpose committee," which means it can contribute money to anyone. It has not yet released any financial disclosures.
Nowacki did not respond to a request for comment.

Comments about Lotion Applicator:
I have used one of these for years. You don't need to bother with the pads at all. Just put the lotion on the smooth plastic paddle and apply directly to your back. Wipe and rinse clean and it is ready for next use.
Bottom LineYes, I would recommend this to a friend

I use it to apply lotion because of dry skin. I need to be careful with the sharp edge on the end of it. Other then that, it works quite well.

At last something to reach that itch!

About Me Arthritic, Diabetic, Elderly, Long Term User
Often there are areas of your back, you simply cannot reach. I have dry skin and often these areas are very itchy. For the most part, I have used this applicator successfully.
Love it!

About Me Normal user
I love this product! I've been looking for a tool to apply lotion to the middle of my back and this works great. Yes, the pads do lift a little, but I just press it back down and it's fine. I'll take that over a dry patch in the middle of my back.

The extra long arm
By Jazz Jai
from Cleveland, Oh
About Me Long Term User
I liked being able to reach the middle of my back - the spot you can't reach with your arms. I don't like that after 2 -3 uses the pad no longer adheres to the handle.
Doesn't work
By Pioneer Girl
from Jackson, CA
Angle is wrong. Pad doesn't adhere. If one spec of lotion gets on edge of applicator, pad lifts and you need to toss it. Wooden spoon works better.
Nice idea, but....
By jackie
from missouri
Handle needs to be longer; pad needs more adhesive; pad area needs to be larger; worked better for feet; overall not worth buying.

Use this product when I have gotten out of the shower and want to apply lotion and there is no one around to help. It is a great item to have

design a feed magazine for laptop computer hard drives to integrate into an existing electronic data destruction machine.this machine will be used to dispose of informaation technology devices and media.
it is to be designed for 4 inches wide x 5 3/4 inches long x 1 inch thick desktop computer hard drives and to handle laptop computer hard drives that are 2 3/4 inches wide x 4 inches long and vary from 5/16 inches thick to 11/16 inches thick.the majority of these drives are 5/16 inches thick.
the magazine must hold a minimum of 12 drives.
i am required to come up with a production magazine system that easily adapts to the existing machine and should be simple and safe to use.not requiring special training to install,load and use.

The blog is intended to be mildly humorous, combining contemporary issues and our modern lifestyle with events experienced by the characters in Arthur Miller's play; at the same time, it tries to explore the themes in the play that relate to conflict. I do not own Abigail Williams, nor any other characters referenced in the blog.
Anyone wanting to use any part of this blog for whatever reason is more than welcome to, just let me know.

There Are Never Enough Bookstores
Nashville's getting an independent bookstore again. No, it's not near me, but still. Here's the email that the owner sent out as a public service announcement.
|3900 Hillsboro Pike, Nashville, TN 37215 · Get Directions
|1 615.953.2243
|Open until 8:00 pm
Parnassus Books Grand Opening on Saturday, November 19th!
10:30 am: Puppet Show by Nashville Public Library's Puppet Truck
1-3:00 pm: Meet-and-greet with local children's and young adult authors
5-8:00 pm: Grand Opening drop-in reception, featuring local adult authors
A Note from Ann Patchett:
Once again, Nashville has its own independent bookstore, friends, and it feels good. Really, it feels like we have wrenched the hands of time backwards, back to the days of Mills and Zibarts.
I know I'm raising some high expectations for those of you who are old enough to know the stores I'm talking about, but this is what I mean: Parnassus is a small store with a carefully selected inventory of books that you are actually going to want to read.
Someone said to me recently that they went into the three story Barnes & Noble in Union Square in New York and couldn't find a single thing they wanted to buy; then they went into the 500-square-foot Crawford and Doyle Booksellers on the Upper East Side and were driven mad with desire for nearly every book they saw. How is that possible?
For the same reason that a 75 page menu makes you feel bewildered and not the least bit hungry. Limited choices can be helpful when faced with the Library of Congress.
And here's another thing we have going for us that our great predecessors knew something about: a friendly, intelligent staff comprised of people who read the books they sell. (Roger Bishop, anyone? Stephanie Freudenthal?)
I know, it doesn't make any sense to me either. How can we employ such smart, well-read, and truly pleasant people when everybody knows there's no money to be made in book selling? It turns out that there are some people who love books so much they just want to be around them. People actually offered to work in the store for free (which, sadly, didn't turn out to be entirely legal.)
The debate isn't just between e-readers and paper books. It's also about having the chance to interact with humans while making your purchase. Outstanding humans at that. Please, come in and meet them.
You know those motivational speakers who tell you that the people who become hugely successful in life are the people who do what they love? The thing that doesn't even feel like work? Well, those motivational speakers probably weren't talking about opening a bookstore, but still, were doing this because we love it.
If Parnassus works out, I really want to open a tiny drugstore that has a soda fountain that makes great ice cream sundaes, because that's the other thing I've been missing.
In closing, I am thinking of my cousin, Ann Wilson. Every time I left her house, she would say, You best stay with us.
Really. Stay with us.
Thanks so much,
Updating on that personal note
I'm back to work now and doing fine. According to my cardiologist, it was the lightest a heart attack can be and still be measurable (which is probably why I was able to sleep through it). And all the effects of the stroke are all gone, except for an apparent inability to talk loudly. I'll get a big stick, I guess. I probably could have gone back to work a week or more ago except for the drainage tube running out my back. But that's gone now. All I have to remember it all by are a few more prescriptions and that one, last, lingering kidney stone. Since he's the last stone, I've named him Keith.

ABC's McFadden Compares Hillary to Thomas Jefferson
February 3, 2013 | Filed Under ABC, Democrats/Leftists, Ethics, Founders, Government, Journalism, Liberals, Media, Media Bias, President, Progressives, State Department, Thomas Jefferson, Warner Todd Huston | Comments Off
-By Warner Todd Huston
The inordinate praise for now former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been thick throughout the media, but no other coverage was more obsequious than ABC's. Cynthia McFadden topped off this praise by comparing Clinton to no less than Thomas Jefferson.
On the January 30 broadcast of Nightline, McFadden spoke to Clinton in what was billed as her "last television interview in office." The interview was conducted in front of a statue of Thomas Jefferson and at one point in the interview McFadden effusively equated Clinton to Jefferson. Motioning toward the statue of the founder, McFadden said, "As Jefferson looks over our shoulder, who I would only point out, was Secretary of State who went on to become president."
To this Clinton merely joked, "I've heard that. Thank you"
Strangely, despite being on the video, the purported full transcript of the interview does not contain McFadden's indecorous Jefferson line.
The interview was mostly softball. While McFadden did bring up Benghazi it was only to ask if Hillary stood behind her "what difference does it make" comment made during her recent Senate testimony. McFadden did not press Clinton on any of the substantive facts about the debacle that ended up in the brutal murder of ambassador Chris Stevens and several other Americans in Libya.
"The only end of writing is to enable the reader better to enjoy life, or better to endure it."

TEAMS: Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox
The Blue Jays lineup is starting to look a little more like it should. To be fully restored, of course, it would require the presence of Jose Bautista, but he is out for the season after having surgery on his left wrist. But catcher J.P. Arencibia and third baseman Brett Lawrie returned from injury Friday night and the batting order just looked better for their presence. Lawrie returned to the leadoff spot and started the game with a double and scored the game's first run as the Blue Jays went on to beat the Red Sox 7-5. He also made a nice play in the field. Although Arencibia was 0-for-4, he caught the whole game as he returned from a fractured right hand. Combined, the two went 1-for-9 but it was a start. They gave Toronto some right-handed bats in the batting order that have been lacking since injuries kicked a big hole in the lineup. "Without a doubt," manager John Farrell said. "That's not to slight anybody else on this club. But w...

PLAYERS: Adrian Peterson
TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings
TEAMS: Minnesota Vikings
Eric Dickerson knows Adrian Peterson could rip off 208 yards at any time. But he doesn't think it's going to happen this Sunday, when Peterson needs it to happen most. Dickerson, who holds the single-season rushing record at 2,105 yards, was asked Sunday morning on the NFL Network whether he thought Peterson would break his mark Sunday against the Packers. "No, I don't," Dickerson said, according to Pro Football Talk. But Dickerson did acknowledge that the Vikings' running back has the ability to amass the yardage needed. "If any guy could have 208 yards in a single game, that would be [him]," Dickerson said. Peterson has rushed for more than 200 yards in a game twice this season, including piling up 210 yards against the Packers in their first meeting. He is up to 1,898 yards in a season that has seen him break all kinds of barriers.

Tea caddies comprise the largest and most complete group
within the Sallea collection of boxes. When tea was first
used in England, it was taken only in small quantities for
medicinal purposes. Yet this single imported commodity was
destined to inspire almost two centuries of social ritual
and decorative arts. Of all the different items covered by
the term "tea equipage," the tea caddy is the
object upon which craftsmen and artists lavished their greatest
skills and finest materials.
Today the term tea caddy denotes the entire genre of tea containers
in all styles and materials. The word caddy derives from the
Malay Chinese "kati" which means a measure of
tea weighing about a pound and one third. English usage of
the term was not widespread until the end of the 18th century,
and when introduced probably referred to the box or chest
which housed porcelain or metal bottles.
The largest and most diverse group of caddies are the wooden
boxes or chests. The high cost of tea assured its status as
a luxury item and necessitated a secure container for its
storage and display. The construction and decoration of these
containers was a reflection of the social rank of the owner.
The finest furniture makers were enlisted to produce these
boxes, each of which reflected the cabinetmaker's best
The earliest wooden chests date from the Queen Anne period
and were generally of walnut, often sarcophagus shaped with
two or three compartments for black and green tea and sometimes
sugar. As styles changed in the 18th century, there was a
preference for smaller, single compartment boxes in square,
oval, or multi-sided shapes. Our collection includes every
popular wood veneer of the time; mahogany, satinwood, harewood
(dyed sycamore), various fruitwoods and burl walnut. Inlaid
decoration ranges from the simplest keyhole escutcheon of
a contrasting wood or ivory to elaborate neoclassical motifs
such as shells, fans, urns, birds, and florals as well as
depictions of myths and fables.
Probably the most unusual type of wooden caddies are the
fruit shaped caddies. Eighteenth century oriental examples,
like the Japanese eggplant, are most prized. These pieces
typically have a threaded top which covers a tight-fitting
inner lid. European examples, usually apples and pears, have
looser hinged lids, simple keyhole escutcheons of steel, silver,
or iron, and are lined in lead foil. The finest fruits were
made in England in the late 18th century and others came from
Germany in the early 19th century. They were made of various
fruitwoods which often corresponded to the fruit they depict.
These simpler turned shapes usually have polished finishes,
but the more elaborate carved fruits, such as melons and even
pineapples, often have painted finishes. Their beautiful shapes,
original finishes, and rarity hold special appeal for collectors.
Ivory and tortoiseshell were rare and exotic materials in
the last quarter of the 18th century. They were used, often
together, to produce some of the finest quality tea caddies.
The difficulty and cost of obtaining ivory and tortoise in
combination with the technical difficulties of producing and
working with pieces of veneer of any size dictated that the
designs be small in scale and/or multi-sided. To further enhance
these already sumptuous materials, both could be sculpted
to give a dimensional fluted or woven effect, and ivory could
be elaborately carved.
Early ivory caddies feature narrow strips of tortoise or horn
which outline the panels of ivory. Most have silver fittings
which can range from simple handles, keyhole escutcheons and
medallions to intricately engraved crests, piqué work
and elaborate patterns of sliver pinheads or cut steel beads.
Tortoiseshell tea caddies offer a wide variety of periods
and styles. The earlier 18th century pieces, like their ivory
counterparts, were single compartment caddies, square or multi-faceted
with straigh sides. Ivory veneeer was used as decorative trim
both inside and out. These caddies tended to rely more on
the distinctive markings and coloration of the tortoiseshell
itself rather than applied decoration.
In the early 19th century through the Regency period, tortoise
caddies generally became larger and more complicated in form.
Bombé shapes, block or serpentine fronts, casket shaped
tops, aprons and ball feet all appeared as well as the distinctive
"pagoda" form which was a reflection of the revived
popularity of chinoiserie decoration during the Regency period.
These pieces made greater use of silver stringing between
the panels of tortoise veneer. The tortoise itself was often
inlaid with patterns of mother-of-pearl or abalone shell.
Among the rarest tortoiseshell boxes are those with colored
veneers. Red and all hues of green were accomplished by staining
the lighter natural shell or lining it with colored foils.
Though dominated by wood and wood veneers, the crafting
of tea caddies embraced almost every other technique and material
used in the 18th and 19th centuries. Among metal caddies,
silver was the most fashionable and most valued. It was customary
to produce silver caddies in sets of two or three and install
them in fitted cases. Often the cases had silver fittings
and mounts, sometimes sugar nips (tongs) or spoons set into
the lid or into a drawer. Shagreen, an untanned leather, or
snakeskin was the material of choice for these cases, the
most common colors being green, black, and red.
Early 18th century silver caddies recall the shape of Chinese
tea bottles, however by 1730 the narrow necks and smaller
caps gave way to flat sliding lids. Progressively the shapes
became larger and more ornate. By the middle of the century,
bombé forms and wider domed tops with decorative finials
were the style. Some silversmiths such as Pierre Gillois of
London specialized in boxed caddy sets which are now highly
valued for their quality. During this time the fusing process
which became known as Sheffield plate was perfected, and a
great number of caddies of almost identical design and style
to the silver caddies were produced.
The form and design of silver caddies closely followed the
wooden caddies in that the neoclassical period marked a return
to simpler shapes and "bright cut" engraving which
featured allegorical figures, floral garlands and ribbons.
Bombé shapes became popular again during the Regency
period, which often had fluted details and carved finials.

Zihuatanejo itself is a bustling town geared to the interests and needs of visitors but very much with a life of its own. People are friendly and helpful, there are plenty of good restaurants, a wonderful food market and a glorious market for Mexican handicrafts. A large supermarket with everything and anything you might need and is a five minute taxi ride from the condominium.
If you are interested in fishing, there is a huge variety of boats to chose from at the Marina to spend the day out at sea. Ixtapa is an extremely successful tourist development with the best hotels, clubs and restaurants, and is a ten minute taxi ride away.
There is a small pool and jacuzzi in shared common areas for use by guests. The rooftop jacuzzi has views for miles over the bay but guests are usually so anxious to get down to the beach that they forget to visit the jacuzzi! However, a visit is really worth while especially at dusk when you can sip a tequila in the jacuzzi while watching the sun set over the bay!
The one-bedroom apartment has a bedroom with a double bed (1.40m), a kitchenette, a dining/living room, and a bathroom with shower unit (no bathtub).
The two-bedroom apartment has two bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and the other with a double bed, a living room with two sofa beds, an equipped kitchen, a bar, and two bathrooms with shower unit (no bathtub).

50th Anniversary of Civil Rights Act

Task Force: 50th Anniversary of Civil Rights Act; time to celebrate, time to make more progress
WASHINGTON, DC, July 2, 2014 —Today marks the 50th anniversary of the signing into law of the landmark Civil Rights Act by President Lyndon Johnson.
"Fifty years ago, President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act. It was the culmination of historic actions such as the March on Washington that we commemorated last summer. The landmark act was more than a legal remedy to the most appalling discrimination and inequality, it represented the hopes and dreams of millions of people who simply wanted to fulfill the promise of America. Today, we can celebrate significant progress, including important advances in recent days such as President Obama's upcoming executive orders to protect LGBTQ employees. But we still live in a world where racism permeates every aspect of our society; where a trans person of color can be turned away from the polling station because of their race and gender identity, where a Latino man can be profiled, stopped and frisked because of his race and presumed sexual orientation, and where millions of women — regardless of race — get paid less than their male counterparts. So, as we celebrate today, let¹s fight even harder for a tomorrow where everyone experiences true freedom and justice."

text: This book will be extremely useful to any health professional who deals with adolescents and young adults, whether in paediatric or adult acute care facilities or as primary care clinicians. As a handbook, it provides ready access to clinically relevant, adolescent specific information for anyone who treats young people. The book is important because it fills a gap in the market. Most adolescent texts are written by paediatricians for paediatricians. This book has a broader scope in two important aspects of adolescent medicine. First, many adolescents are looked after by adult trained clinicians who have not had specific training in adolescent health and secondly, the conditions that are important in adolescents are also those that are important in young adults. With the increased survival rates in chronic illness over the last few decades, it is becoming even more important for adult clinicians to be more familiar with conditions that have their origins in childhood. Each chapter is written by an expert in their field, with a highly practical approach and provides an excellent and easy way to increase clinical skills.

Complete List of VP Selina Meyer's Nicknames:
- Mammary Meyer
- Grizzly Madam
- Shee-rah
- Meyer the Liar
- The Batcave
- Piss Face
- Wicked Witch of the West Wing
- Veep Throat
- Voldemeyer
- Dickless Van Dyke
- Tawdry Hepburn
- Blunder Woman
- Selena Meh
- Vaselina
- Betty Poop
- Vaguely Personable
- Viagra Prohibitor
- Visible Panties
- VeepILF
- Mrs. Doubtmeyer
This show is just bafflingly fast and savvy and smart and hilarious and painfully politically accurate.
All the cynicism that was wrung out of the West Wing before it aired trickled down and gathered in smelly, stagnant pools on Veep. Which makes both shows so great, in such bi-polar ways. (Also, Betty Poop is my non-sequitorial favorite. We had to pause the show so I could finish laughing)
If you're watching Girls but not Veep, I just don't know what to do with you. At first glance it looked like a show solely designed around making fun of Sarah Palin, but it's actually smart and hilarious and quite well done and not taking stale cheap shots.
"You can't just make up acronyms, Jonah!" "Somebody has to!"
Jonah is the worst.

It is a very nice scotch.

I'd add Glenmorangie, particularly if you like to drink your scotch with some water or soda water.
If you drink it neat or on the rocks, Macallan & Glenlivet are definitely worth a taste.
Jamesons goes without saying.
If you're gonna drink bourbon, and you should, be a man and drink Wild Turkey 101 on the rocks. If you have to be foofy about it, drink Wild Turkey Rare Breed...its something like 105 proof and smoother than the 101.
If you must drink scotch, see Irisher's post above.
