To the Editor: In their case-control study
of risk factors for meningococcal disease in college students, Dr Bruce and
colleagues1 report that 4 of the case subjects
(8%) died before exposure histories could be obtained, so proxy patients were
interviewed. The authors did not exclude the 4 deceased case subjects, nor
did they identify and interview proxies of the 4 matched controls. It is possible
that this introduced a small amount of bias because of the differential misclassification
of exposure. The case subjects were more likely than the control subjects
to have had their exposures misclassified. The odds ratios (ORs) may have
been biased toward or away from the null value.2
For example, the lack of a significant association between active smoking
and risk of disease may have been caused by underreporting by the 4 proxy

The March 7th date for the iPad 3 has been floating around for almost a month now but today we got some fresh leaks showing a bit of evidence that it could be accurate. An anonymous Best Buy employee tipped Engadget some screenshots showing iPad 2 models at Best Buy had been tagged as deleted and that they were preparing to free up the iPad 2 display cases for an upcoming refresh. If all this is true then Apple will probably be sending out their event invitations within the week.

These brown paper bags are a great purchase. They keep the product fresh and sealed. They're easily customizable with stamps or stickers and look great on any shelf!
Phil R. from Oak Hill Bulk Foods, Inc. Posted on 07/12/2016
These bags are better than expected, very pleased. Best build kraft bags on the market. easily stamp able, and very durable I would recommended highly
Scott D. from Pour More Coffee Posted on 01/28/2016
great bags, bought the 1/2 LB and the 1 LB. love them both. very well build, love the liner, and it holds ink stamps really well. Definitely would purchase again
Scott D. from pour more coffee Posted on 01/22/2016
Excellent quality bag. Customers love them and we do too. They hold coffee beans well and are lined so beans hold their freshness quite well.
Trevor l. from Nudge Coffee Roasters Posted on 12/29/2015
I needed something for my Bath Teas/Salts that the oils would not soak through. These are absolutely perfect for that. Plus, I can place my label and stamp on front to make these look beautiful.
Gina F. from doTerra Essential Oils Educator Posted on 10/02/2015
i bought these for my 7 yr old grand daughters craft class. her teacher loved the size for cookies and other treats such as candies.
Dominic N. Posted on 09/22/2015
Exactly what we needed for our shop. Fits a half pound of coffee perfectly and our rubber stamp doesn't smear on the front. Oily beans do not leak through. Tin tie is a must have.
Paulette S. Posted on 08/31/2015
These are a nice alternate to larger coffee bags. We sell specialty coffee that is quite expensive. This allows our customers to try our beans at more affordable prices.
Eric H. Posted on 07/16/2015
Excellent buy, I've been using these for a while now and never have I found better (I've searched) there are cheaper in price but the quality is definitly not like these. The metal tabs are great and last
Sal F. from Baby & Bump Posted on 06/28/2015
Bags, bags and more bags!
Great product to have on hand for your coffee or bakery cafe. I use this for coffee beans, oatmeal cereal or to go bags when needed.
Marianne C. from Local Foods Bakery Posted on 04/19/2015
I bought these last year and use for my cottage business. I love these bags. They are of good quality and stand up great. You can put your own labels on as well. I would highly recommend this product as I will be purchasing again. I also love how it comes in 1/2 lb so they are not so big!!
Patricia S. from The Slow Time Inn and Cottage Posted on 04/01/2015
Fantastic, simple bags. Kraft paper, authentic, natural look. I love them and think you'll also appreciate them. And the tin ties work well, no problem with them unsticking.
Anda G. Posted on 03/14/2015
Simple bag, get the job done.
Very good quality and looks great in a retail setting, they are small though. Fits approx. 3.5 cups of flour per bag. They do stand up nicely on our display shelves.
Sarah C. Posted on 10/31/2014
We have always purchased our coffee bags from our coffee supplier until we found these. The bags are lined and fold down perfectly. The price is so reasonable will definitely order more once we have our custom label.
Kim S. from Everybody's Bulk Food Market Posted on 10/01/2014
Extremely quick turnaround for ground transport. Expected it to be at least three to four days and it arrived in one. Must be the number of warehouses they ship out of that makes it close to my state. Thoroughly impressed. Oh, yeah.....great coffee bag product, as well!
Nick C. from dana street roasting company Posted on 05/14/2014
These bags were very high quality. This size is perfect for a full pound of roasted coffee. I didn\'t try to affix any labels yet, but I think that would work well also.
David N. from Open Tree Creative Posted on 03/29/2014
This product is a great product. I have bought the one pound and 1/2 bags that look great with my logo. I highly recommend these bags.
Tyler Z. from Fog Coffee Company Posted on 11/29/2013
Sleek design that goes well with almost any logo!
The bags are a great quality. I have a few that I reuse just for a few of my pantry items. They have lasted over six months of opening and closing dozens of times now. I bought these for packaging my homemade dog treats. These bags help prolong the shelf life of them since I do not use preservatives.
Amanda F. from FleischSmith's Barkery Posted on 11/03/2013
Basic packaging sample
I roast my own coffee and love to give samples to friends, since I can only roast in small batches these bags allow me to give people some to try with out the bag looking half empty. Love them
Mitchel E. Posted on 09/12/2013
I have no complaints about these coffee bags. They are a great size, well constructed, and the liner helps keep the coffee nice and fresh.
Jemima F. from Laurel River Store Posted on 06/05/2013
The price of these bags is great & the quality was much better than I had anticipated...the quality is actually really nice! I also love the fact that the pack size is only 100.
Justin R. Posted on 05/30/2013
We use these to share samples of our locally roasted coffee with potential clients. Perfect size for sharing! We add our own label to create a customized gift. Can also be used for baked goods or soup mixes. Very economical way to present goods professionally and securely.
Cheryl T. from The Savory Spoon Catering Co. Posted on 01/06/2013
Worked well for our gourmet tea blends. Our customers loved the style and look of the bags. Added a professional yet hip flair to our product!
Leslie C. from Kombuchick Inc Posted on 01/24/2012
Love these bags and the price is excellent - they work for tea too! Even fine cut teas and herbals don't "leak" out the bottom.
Linda F. from Florida Teas Posted on 09/24/2011
Awesome coffee bag for the price. The liner on the inside holds in coffee oils exceptionally well. They are also very easy to decorate and customize.
Andrew G. from Cafemantic Posted on 06/22/2011
These bags are great for half-pound portions of loose granola. I also used them for spiced nuts and smaller cookies, such as Mexican wedding cookies. Sturdy and dependable!
Christine W. Posted on 05/10/2011
I use this great little bag for detergent Samples. It will hold about 12oz od my detergent. Super strong closure. Lined to keep freshness in. Hold up through shipping.

Bank of America Sells Balboa Life Insurance to Securian
Bank of America Corp., the biggest U.S. lender by assets, agreed to sell life insurance operations to Securian Financial Group Inc. after A.M Best said it may downgrade the business.
The deal for Balboa Life Insurance Co. and Balboa Life Insurance Co. of New York is expected to be completed on Oct. 1, St. Paul, Minnesota-based Securian said today in a statement that didn't disclose terms. Bank of America was left with the life businesses after striking a $700 million deal in February to sell the Balboa unit that insures foreclosed properties to QBE Insurance Group Ltd.
Bank of America acquired insurance operations in 2008 with the purchase of home lender Countrywide Financial Corp. A.M. Best said Feb. 16 it may downgrade the life business because the parent company was unlikely to build the operations after the QBE deal.
"It's not a business that we intend to keep," Bank of America spokesman Jerry Dubrowski said in a Feb. 16 interview about Balboa Life.
Closely held Securian, founded in 1880, provides insurance and retirement-planning services.
"As providers exit the market, we view this as an opportunity to increase our presence," Securian Executive Vice President Christopher Hilger said in the statement.

That's More Like It – Earlier this week, Bill Simmons floated the trade idea of Omer Asik straight up for Ryan Anderson, which I expressed some doubts about. On Thursday, David Thorpe went on TrueHoop TV with some much more ambitious trade targets for Houston: Chris Bosh or Andrew Bogut and Harrison Barnes.
To wit: The average plus/minus produced by a Rockets starter stands at a robust +8.65 as of this writing. The two constants in the club's starting lineup, James Harden and Howard, sport an average plus/minus of +9 and +6.25, respectively, through four games.Other notables: Patrick Beverley leads the team with a plus/minus average of +10.5 per game and Houston's preseason's breakout star to date, Omri Casspi, has a healthy average of +7.25. In three games so far, Chandler Parsons' plus/minus stands at +8.3 and Jeremy Lin comes in at +4

Leather strap with Pendleton logo makes your camp blanket easy to carry.
Price: $25.00
Category: Bed Collections
The Crossroads design reflects First Nations teachings and the power of the four directions - the number "four" is sacred among many Native American tribes. East represents the physical body, the realm of the Warrior. West represents the heart and the path of the Visionary. North is the region of the mind and the wisdom of the Teacher. South represents the spirit, enlightenment and the realm of the Healer. Balance and harmony are achieved where the directions meet at the center of the Medicine Wheel. Crosses in this jacquard pattern symbolize the crossroads where the paths meet - the place where an individual becomes whole. Unnapped, sueded trim. 82%wool/18%cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Price: $249.00
Heroic Chief
Category: Pillow and Shams
A striking silhouette of a Native American Chief is the central image of this unique, circa 1920s design. The feathered headdress was a ceremonial war bonnet worn only by chiefs and warriors. The war bonnet was common among Plains Indian men - Sioux, Crow, Blackfeet, Cheyenne and Cree - but was seldom worn on the battlefield. Reserved for formal occasions, the golden eagle-feather war bonnet was a spiritual symbol of a man's courage and honor. It was a sign of respect that could be bestowed only by the tribe's elders. The bonnet was also believed to protect the wearer. Later, other Native American tribes adopted the headdress as simply a sign of authority. Today, a brave or good deed may still be rewarded with an eagle feather. Napped, felt binding. 82% wool/18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Price: $84.50
Shared Spirits - Legendary Collection
Category: Blankets/Robes/Throws
For more than a century, Pendleton Woolen Mills has woven the legends and symbols of Native American tribes into beautiful blankets. Native Americans were our first and remain our most loyal customers. In the early 20th century, Pendleton was among the few American mills making blankets specifically for the Indian trade. A Pendleton blanket continues to signify honor and respect. For a hundred years, Native Americans have acknowledged births, deaths and major milestones and accomplishments with the gift of a Pendleton blanket.
This brilliantly colored design incorporates imagery that is universal among the Native peoples. The sun, moon, stars and rain clouds represent an honored relationship with the spiritual world of the cosmos. Native American reverence for the natural world is represented by both flora – corn, squash, beans and tobacco – and fauna – buffalo, bear, elk and eagle. The dynamic central image is a sacred circle filled with a cross, a universal symbol of the origin of humankind and the four directions that guide us on our journey. Each blanket has a sueded commemorative label telling the design's story. All blankets are napped, felt bound, 82% pure virgin wool and 18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Camp Blankets
Category: Blankets/Robes/Throws
A vintage look that at home in both rustic and contemporary settings. The blnkets recalls the original camp blankets relied upon by early sheepherders in the Northwest. The Clearwater is inspired by the "Ombre stripe" blankets cowboys carried on the backs of their saddles and unrolled to make camp after a long day on the range. 86% Wool/14% Cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Price: $129.00
National Park Blankets - Full
Category: Blankets/Robes/Throws
Experience the history and romance of America. Since the early 1990s, Pendleton has honored America's National Parks with a collection of distinctive Park Blankets. All of the blankets have a Pendleton Patch signifying their authenticity and the park represented, and like all our blankets are woven in our own Northwest woolen mills. 100% pure virgin wool. Dry Clean. Made in the USA.
Glacier Park Blanket is not available in Canada.
Price: $229.00
Pendleton Eco Wise Wool® Blanket

From the sheep to the shelf, Pendleton Eco-Wise Wool® passes strict standards of sustainability and responsible environmental stewardship. 100% pure virgin wool. Machine washable. Made in the USA.
Price: $134.00
Diamond Desert
Category: Bed Collections
Traditional Native American geometric weaving inspired the early 1900s blanket design. Beauty and balance, order and harmony are central to the Navajo world view. In this exclusive Pendleton pattern, arrows, triangles and serrated diamonds are arranged in perfect harmony, a reflection of hozho, a Navajo word that embodies the quest for balance in life. The four strong stripes illustrate the balance and contrast between darkness and light. Diamonds represent the four sacred mountains that define the four directions and enclose the Navajo universe in the shape of a diamond. The high desert area bordered by Blanca Peak in Colorado, Mount Taylor in New Mexico, the San Francisco Peaks in Arizona and Hesperus Peak in Colorado is considered the Navajo sacred homeland. Unnapped. Unnapped, sueded trim. 82% wool/18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Mountain Majesty
Category: Bed Collections
The Mountain majesty blanket design was inspired by navajo hand weaving created in the Southwest circa 1920-1940. Pendleton has woven into the pattern a host of positive, native American-inspired symbols. Terraced steps, reference the mountains we climb in life's journey to reach the clouds and sky above. Big mountains are symbols of abundance. Motifs in the central stripe may be interpreted as saddlebags for a journey up and over the mountains. Diamonds may signify the four mountains sacred to the Navajo. Centered on these traditional diamond geometrics are butterfly-like images, uplifting symbols of hope and life. Some believe that butterflies can deliver a wish up to the Great Spirits. Inspirational symbols are complemented by quiet colors that evoke the evening light of a Western landscape and the faded hues of vintage Old Glory. Unnapped, sueded trim. 82% wool/18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.

5 unexpected spots for waterfront dining
Take in views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River this summer—without dealing with crowds
Ever feel like going for a bite beside one of Chicago's major waterways necessitates a Faustian compact, in which access to nice views means accepting a fate of lackluster food, crappy service or overinflated prices (and sometimes all three)? It needn't be so, friends. These Chicago restaurants allow diners to savor great river and lakefront vistas while offering something more, from cheap food to unique atmospheres to food that's creative or just downright good.
RECOMMENDED: Beer gardens, rooftop bars and outdoor dining spots in Chicago
Unexpected spots for waterfront dining
Cafe 300
Dinner on the river walk can be great and all, but it's tough to rationalize lobster and prime filet prices when you're just popping out of the office for a workday lunch. Enter Café 300, a cafeteria-style spot where you can dine on basic lunchtime fare like hot pastrami sandwiches and avocado, strawberry and roasted almond salads on an open-air terrace situated directly beneath Chicago Cut Steakhouse. It's like getting chateaubriand views on a chicken salad budget.Read more
Kief's Reef
If you're after a Northwoods vibe without the long drive, Kief's Reef in Cook County's neighbor to the northwest, McHenry, is a solid bet. The bar/restaurant's outdoor dining area, which fronts the Fox River, features a kitschy tiki bar, a dock for boat-up access, and a small beach, along with views of passing speed boats towing hot-dogging water skiers. A large daily menu includes super-casual pub-grub fare like burgers and wraps, though the big draw for many locals is the Friday night fish fry.Read more
Parrot Cage
From Thursday through Sunday each week, the students of Washburne Culinary Institute take up residence in the South Shore Cultural Center, putting on a dinner service (or Sunday brunch) highlighting American-inflected dishes like crab and grits, Lake Superior whitefish and grilled ribeye, all at an affordable price point. While the dining room feels somewhat dated, the adjacent patio peeks out over a sandy beach and Lake Michigan beyond—a sight that never gets old.Read more
Waterfront Café
Sprawling lakeward from the rear of a charming old Edgewater coach house, the seasonal Waterfront Café serves up unpretentious food like fish and chips, crab cakes and apple walnut salad and a roster of basic drinks—as well as some of the most spectacular lake-meets-skyline scenery to be found at a local dinner table. And while it's a bit of a trek for many people, that's a good thing—the Waterfront is among the calmer lakeside restaurants.Read more
Whole Foods Market Lincoln Park
A trip to one of the city's tight-aisled, constantly mobbed grocery stores can be stressful—but Lincoln Park's Whole Foods has a secret asset that might actually encourage you to linger. Through the glass doors beyond the registers at the store's rear is a small canal-side seating area complete with highboy tables and southeasterly views of the skyline. With a sizeable food court and expansive bakery and cheese departments at your disposal, assembling a meal here has the feeling of putting together a picnic. Choose a few bites, grab a glass of wine or a pint of beer, and head out those magic doors for a grocery store experience that's surprisingly tranquil.Read more

With somewhat less fanfare than accompanied The Return of Late Night on January 2nd, in which network talk shows made a mass return to the airwaves in various writer-having/writer-free and hirsute/clean-shaven configurations, Comedy Central's Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert reported for duty Monday night—initially sporting a Strike Unibrow and Strike Moses-Beard, respectively, to show their solidarity with their still-missing scribes.
While Stewart lamented his program's inability to get the kind of side-deal the WGA made with Worldwide Pants (the Guild, it seems, isn't really embracing the idea of giving corporate monolith Viacom a break), he still dedicated most of the show to the strike; in the above segment—one probably not as improvised as the WGA would like, but given the pro-cause subject matter, the union probably won't be sending anyone over to Stewart's office to have a testy sit-down about strike rules—the host details the dispute over internet compensation, explaining how the $1.99 fees charged for iTunes downloads of his show are purely a shipping and handling charge, the proposed "Shut The Fuck Up" formula for new-media residuals, and how the viewing of written content on iPods clearly falls under the "Hickory Farms promotional cheese" principle.

AbstractMuon beams used in high energy physics research must be cooled as quickly as the short muon lifetime requires. This cooling is accomplished by ionization cooling, which requires low-Z energy absorbers immersed in a strong magnetic field and high-gradient, large-aperture RF cavities. However, RF cavities that operate in vacuum are vulnerable to dark-current-generated breakdown, which is exacerbated by strong magnetic fields; thus, extra safety windows are required to separate RF regions from hydrogen energy absorbers. These windows degrade the cooling. This project will develop RF cavities that are pressurized with dense hydrogen gas that will absorb the dark currents and allow the cavities to operate in strong magnetic fields. The same real estate will be used to provide the energy absorber and the RF acceleration needed for ionization cooling. To accomplish this development: (1) systematic measurements of the operation of a hydrogen-filled cavity will be made as a function of the external magnetic field and charged particle beam intensity; (2) a pressurized RF cavity will be designed, built, and tested; and (3) beam-induced gas breakdown will be studied by improving simulation models. Commercial Applications and other Benefits as described by the awardee: Commercial uses for bright muon beams include screening cargo containers for homeland security, low-dose radiography, and muon-catalyzed fusion. Scientific uses include low energy beams for rare process searches, muon spin resonance, muon beams for neutrino factories, and muon colliders such as Higgs factories or energy-frontier discovery machines.

Apr 4, 2011Easy, short, linear and with embarrasing flaws in AI, this game is a huge disappointment.

As a modern FPS, it has some glaring errors that I'm surprised the developers didn't take the time to fix. The controls are slow and sluggish, forcing you to move around from battle to battle in tiny, fenced in maps to kill a few aliens and repeat... over and over and over. The character models don't even look down the barrels of their guns, but stare off to the side while they fire to the front. The AI is a joke and basically consists of "pop up here, then fire from here till the player kills you".
The audio is annoying as you'll hear the same things from your AI "allies" repeated about 10 times per level. The cut scenes look like they were made in a high school animation class - think low budget south park. Even on the hardest setting the game is easy completely killing replay value.
The positives of getting to lay waste to aliens as a marine gets old after the first level and you feel like you're being punished for buying the game. I think the only positive reviews are by the developers themselves or poor souls who are gullible enough to appreciate any rushed, half-developed game made to increase sales based on a weak IP.… Full Review »

EPA: State Department Analysis Of Keystone XL Tar Sands Pipeline Oil Spill, Global Warming Risks Is 'Insufficient'
The controversial Keystone XL pipeline project, intended to pump Canadian tar sands oil to Gulf Coast distributors, has hit a major roadblock on its pathway to federal approval. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a scathing review of the U.S. Department of State's draft analysis of the pipeline's environmental impacts, calling it "insufficient" for the second year in a row. EPA has identified numerous flaws and omissions in the State Department's Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Statement (SDEIS), ranging from oil spills to greenhouse gas (GHG) pollution:
As explained in this letter, we have a number of concerns regarding the potential environmental impacts of the proposed Project, as well as the level of analysis and information provided concerning those impacts. Our concerns include the potential impacts to groundwater resources from spills, as well as effects on emission levels at refineries in the Gulf Coast. In addition. we are concerned about levels of GHG emissions associated with the proposed Project, and whether appropriate mitigation measures to reduce these emissions are being considered. Moreover, the SDEIS does not contain sufficient information to fully assess the environmental impacts of the proposed Project, including potential impacts to groundwater resources and communities that could be affected by potential increases in refinery emissions.
The EPA letter specifies these risks with TransCanada's Keystone XL project, which would bring 830,000 barrels of tar sands per day to Gulf Coast refineries:
— Oil Spills: The pipeline project puts the Ogallala aquifer, the Missouri River, and minority, low-income, and tribal communities at risk from oil spills. The existing Keystone pipeline has frequent problems, including two spills in the last month.
— Increased Refinery Pollution: The pipeline project will significantly increase Gulf Coast refinery production, putting in particular the community of Port Arthur, Texas, at risk of new air pollution.
— Global Warming Pollution: Annual lifecycle GHG emissions, the EPA believes, may be even higher than the State Department's estimate of 12 to 23 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent. Over the pipeline's 50-year lifespan, that could add up to over one billion metric tons of global warming pollution. The draft analysis fails to use social cost of carbon estimates to analyze the damages that would be caused by that much pollution.
— Wetlands Destruction: There will be several hundred acres of wetlands affected along the pipeline route.
— Migratory Birds: The pipeline project puts numerous species of migratory birds at risk.
The State Department will now begin work on a final environmental impact statement. Although President Barack Obama has let Secretary of State Hillary Clinton take the lead on the question of approving the Keystone XL pipeline, this Cabinet-level conflict will likely have to resolved within the White House. The president himself will probably need to take a stand on whether this project, which poses dire risks to our health and security, but promises massive profits for the oil industry, is in the national interest.
Climate scientist Jim Hansen has joined the chorus of objectors to the Keystone XL pipeline "tar sands monster," warning that "exploitation of tar sands would make it implausible to stabilize the climate and avoid disastrous global climate impacts."

Brooks & Dunn Aim For Top
Brooks & Dunn will be putting some rock in their country when ZZ Top opens for the duo on their Cowboy Town Tour in August and September.
Ronnie Dunn notes that he and partner Kix Brooks were looking to tour with a classic rock act. "Our first inclination was to go for ZZ Top because we knew them through CMT [CMT Crossroads special] and I think the music would be fun," Ronnie told Dial-Global. Kix adds, "We learned a really valuable lesson openin' for the Rolling Stones that those kinds of rock fans are not that different than our fans at all. And in this day and time, you talk to most country artists and their influences are gonna include some big time rock bands."

Sen. McConnell stubbornly held the economy hostage in order to achieve his #1
goal of making Obama a one-term president. Unseating the president was a higher

Agreed with both of your excellent comments.
The Republicans had ONE goal and ONE GOAL only, and it was not America or the American People -- it was solely making Obama a 1 term President, and they lost.

The most impressive election event in 2012 was the positive Democratic turn of events in the U.S. Senate where Republicans had a great opportunity to take control but failed to do so. Unlike the House of Representatives in which Republicans were able to structurally build a firewall of redistricted legislative districts to preserve their majority and required by the Constitution and decennial census, the race for U.S. Senate seats reflected a closer sense of the majority of the popular people's vote. The Republicans by freezing in their power by splitting up districts in the House of Representatives that favored Republicans in order to avoid being turned out in 2012, have only likely delayed the inevitable mandate changes being called for by the majority of Americans in the U.S. Senate races.

President Obama has an approvable rating of 50%.
He received 50% of the vote.
Congress has an approval rating in the high single digits.
Yet voters, for the most part, returned the same people to the Congress.
Nate Silver was accurate, in his analysis of how the election, would turn out.
Karl Rove has some "splainin" to do.

Reasonable? In 2008 Obama said he would reach across the aisle and work with Republicans and Democrats to get our economy growing. Eric Cantor had a jobs creation bill he showed to Chris Wallace on Fox Business News Sunday Edition. He invited the President to come to Congress and sit down and have a discussion. Obama's response: Running around the country blaming the Republican Party for not wanting to tackle the jobs issue. Paul Ryan at least tried to tackle our budget woes, while Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid has refused to vote on a balanced budget amendment. What Obama really means when he says he will work with both parties. If the other party won't conform to his far-left ideology he is not interested. Romney I am convinced would have been far more willing to get things done, since he was able to accomplish results with a Democratic Legislature in Massachusetts.

again with the rhetoric, do you not understand the election is over and the rhetoric did not work. Obama did attempt to reach out to congress and as you state in your comment congresses response was to reach out to fox news. you have a choice you can let go of the rhetoric of the past and become part of finding common sense solutions going forward or you can sit by and watch as the world leaves you behind. your choice.

Unplug to Unleash
I remember that one Saturday very well. Super Hubby and I were huddled in the home office crunching the numbers for our taxes and our son was told he'd have to "find something to do". The choice he made was not to go read a good book, to take a walk around the neighborhood, or even to play outside. That day he made the electronic choice. This choice encompassed about 10 hours of video gaming, to which I am not proud. It's not that I'm anti- TV or anti-gaming. I know it's part of our children's culture and if I ban it entirely, he may very well think the kids at school are speaking another language during lunchtime conversation, and they, in turn, may look at him like he's sporting 3 heads.
The next day, I was determined to make my disappointment known to our young son whose mind may have turned to complete moosh if I hadn't intervened. I told him he had spent too much time on the Wii the day before and today was going to be a day of no electronics, no gaming, no TV. I was still helping Super Hubby with taxes so he needed to find something to do that didn't involve the use of electrical current.
He understood my intent and agreed to the request. I stepped into the home office and closed the door. When I finally emerged, the site before me changed my perspective forever. Right before me was undeniable proof that TV and video games are, indeed, killing the creative brain cells of our youth. I entered my son's room to find it completely converted into a pirate ship. He had made the ship's wheel out of construction paper and taped it to the wall underneath his window. He took the Crayola Washable Window Markers that were collecting dust and drew the ocean and sun onto the window. He drew an octopus when he had to fight one out on the high seas. When the octopus was defeated, he'd erase him and next he drew an island. Land ho! Time to find the hidden treasure, but be careful of the natives. He gathered reserves in a shoe box consisting of pretzels, Pringles, and fruit chews.
The imaginative play I saw before me was the creativity my son had always shown, but at times was robbed of while video controller was in hand. I'm all for balance, it's important. The day he played for 10 hours was a mistake on all our parts. We as parents were busy, our son was bored. It happens. But, when you say the words, "Find something else to do now," you give your child an opportunity to entertain themselves without zoning out. Unplugging means unleashing the imaginative creativity that is already there, just waiting to burst through. Don't deny our children the opportunity to use it fully.

Nebraska author Mari Sandoz remarked that most people see Nebraska as "that long flat state that sets between me and any place I want to go."

Nebraska author Mari Sandoz remarked that most people see Nebraska as "that long flat state that sets between me and any place I want to go." If so, they're missing plenty, as this entertaining volume makes abundantly clear. Susan A. Wunder and John R. Wunder's new, expanded, and updated edition of Donald R. Hickey's classic account of defining Nebraska moments showcases triumph, tragedy, comedy, and accomplishments that could have happened nowhere else and that reveal the rich culture and history under the state's deceptively quiet surface.
There are moments that shine—surviving the Oregon and Mormon trails; completing the Union Pacific Railroad; and winning national football championships, Nobel and Pulitzer prizes, and presidential nominations. There are also moments of darkness such as the murders of Crazy Horse, Malcolm X, and Brandon Teena; the lynchings of Will Brown and Juan Gonzalez; and the Blizzard of 1888. Together they evoke a dramatic history populated with the likes of Pedro Villasur, Willa Cather, and William Jennings Bryan. This new edition also mines Nebraska's most recent history, adding to the ever-changing, ever-intriguing picture of this Great Plains state.

Do you believe in miracles? No, me neither. But sometimes sports gets awfully close to changing my mind. Let me tell you about the Chipolopolo, Zambia's national football team, which just won the country's first-ever Africa Cup of Nations tournament on Sunday.
Zambia beat Ivory Coast on penalties, 8-7. This was an Ivory Coast side that has been called that nation's golden generation. It featured a lineup studded with stars who ply their trade in Europe's biggest leagues, including names such as Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou of Chelsea, Arsenal's Gervinho, Newcastle's Cheick Tiote and Manchester City's Kolo and Yaya Toure. Zambia didn't have any big-named players like that. However, after Sunday's final, you wondered whether something even bigger was possibly on their side.
In 1993, Zambia's national team boarded a flight from Gabon to a World Cup qualifier in Senegal. The plane crashed, killing 30 passengers, including 18 Zambian football players. Nineteen years later, Zambia returned to Gabon for the Africa Cup of Nations final, and they are leaving as continental champions.
It was an admittedly cautious game. Despite their wealth of attacking talent, Ivory Coast played fairly conservatively, which suited Zambia just fine. But whatever the match lacked in entertainment value during regular time it more than made up for when the result was decided with penalty kicks.
After the first 14 kicks were converted, Ivory Coach manager Francois Zahoui asked Gervinho to take a kick. The Arsenal winger refused and Kolo Toure stepped in, only to have his shot saved by Zambia's keeper, Kennedy Mweene. Chipolopolo defender Stophira Sunzu scored a few attempts later, winning the cup for Zambia.
One player who was not on that tragic 1993 flight was Kalusha Bwalya, then the captain of the national team. Widely regarded as Zambia's greatest-ever footballer, Bwalya was playing for the Dutch side, PSV, at the time, and was making his own way to Senegal. In the aftermath of the crash, he helped rebuild the national side, both as a player and as the current president of their football association. When Sunzu scored the tournament-winning goal the team went to celebrate with Bwalya. Gabon had once been the sight of Zambia's greatest football tragedies. Now it was hosting its greatest triumph.
After the match, Zambia manager Herve Renard said, "I told them if we got to the final we would play in Gabon where the plane crashed. There was a special significance in that. They found the strength. I don't know where."
