Hepatitis Health Center
Second New Interferon Drug Combo Cures Hepatitis C
"When I started therapy I felt really, really tired --- I just wanted to sleep all the time," Marichal tells WebMD. "It was hard to do simple things like taking groceries from the car without having to lie down for an hour. And it got progressively worse, although after about six months I got used to it. Also I started getting hives, and that was really bad. I had to take Benadryl, and that made me even sleepier. I also got really depressed. I felt like crying all the time, and I couldn't understand what was happening to me. So they put me on Paxil for that, but that had side effects, too."
Depression, fatigue, and flulike symptoms are common among people who take interferon therapy. And ribavirin causes birth defects, so both women and men must avoid conceiving a child while taking the drug. But even though she suffered from the treatment, Marichal is very happy.
"I would do it again -- being cured is the end result," she says.
Most hepatitis C patients in the U.S. are infected with a strain of hepatitis C called genotype 1 -- the hardest of all hepatitis C strains to cure. In the new Pegasys/ribavirin study, 46% of people infected with genotype 1 became hepatitis C negative and stayed that way. In the earlier PEG-Intron/ribavirin study, this occurred in 48% of genotype 1 patients.
The new study compared 453 patients taking Pegasys/ribavirin with 224 patients taking Pegasys alone (plus a fake injection to simulate combination therapy), and with 444 patients getting standard interferon/ribavirin treatment. Any patient not responding within 12 weeks was offered the chance to switch treatment. Among standard-treatment patients, 45% had a sustained response, while only 30% had sustained responses to Pegasys alone. The response, though, was 56% among patients on the new combination therapy.
One important study finding was that a majority of the patients who became hepatitis C negative did so early in the treatment. This gives doctors an early chance to see whether the drug combination is working -- and to switch treatments if it is not.

Regional Financial Regulation in Asia
The Asian financial crisis (1997–1998) and the global financial crisis (2007–2009) highlighted the potential value of financial regionalism, i.e., regional-level cooperation in financial policy. This paper argues that there is a mediating role for regional-level institutions of financial regulation between national regulators in Asia and global-level institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the Financial Stability Board. This potential role includes: (i) monitoring financial markets and capital flows to identify regional systemic risks such as capital flows; (ii) coordinating financial sector surveillance and regulation to promote regional financial stability; and (iii) cooperating with global-level institutions in rule formulation, surveillance and crisis management. This is particularly important in an environment of increasing financial integration and harmonization in the region. The paper considers experiences of the European Union (EU) and Asia in regional financial cooperation and regulation and draws lessons for Asia. The EU represents the most advanced stage of regional financial integration and regulation in the world today, and can provide valuable lessons for Asia. Asia's greater diversity of financial development and openness requires a more nuanced approach to integration. Despite its shortcomings and slow pace, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Economic Community process probably provides the most feasible and relevant model for regulatory cooperation on a voluntary basis. It would be desirable to extend this framework further in Asia, say to the ASEAN+3 countries for a start. Asian economies can also strengthen existing surveillance processes; enhance and diversify the resources, functions and membership of the Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization and the Macroeconomic Research Office for surveillance and provision of a financial safety net; and create an Asian financial stability dialogue to monitor regional financial markets, facilitate policy dialogue and cooperation, and secure regional financial stability.

Final Fantasy Versus XIII a no show for TGS 2011
Square Enix's Tetsuya Nomura has said the distrubingly vaprous Final Fantasy Versus XIII will not make an appearance at the Tokyo Game Show in September.
According to Andriasang's usual sources, the latest issue of Dengeki contains an interview with the producer in which he states a date has been set for the game's next showing – but it won't be at the TGS.
Square Enix has historically decried showings but made small reveals anyway, so there may still be hope for something in September. We'll be in attendance to see or not see as it unfolds – or not.
Nomura also teased some major voice actor reveals for upcoming PSP release Final Fantasy Type-0, and made some comments about Kingdom Hearts 3D which were carefully blanked. Aww.
Final Fantasy Versus XIII is expected on PlayStation 3 and possibly Xbox 360 … one day. Maybe.

In this Wednesday, April 25, 2012 photo Muslim tourists from India, visit the Dome of the Rock Mosque in the Al Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem's Old City.
NEW DELHI (AP) -- The visit of Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Myanmar on Sunday is the latest sign that India now believes it needs to assert its presence in its eastern neighbor.
Singh's three-day trip to resource-rich Myanmar comes as India intensifies its search for gas supplies to fuel its economic boom.
In recent years, India has nervously watched China's domination of Myanmar's oil and gas exploration projects.
Singh's visit will be the first in 25 years by an Indian prime minister to Myanmar, which shares an extensive land border with India.
Foreign Secretary Ranjan Mathai said India is seeking to deepen bilateral cooperation in security, trade and investment.
Singh will also be meeting with Myanmar's democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi.

How to Learn a Star's True Age
|Using the unique capabilities of NASA's Kepler space telescope, Soren Meibom (CfA) and his collaborators measured the rotation rates for stars in a 1-billion-year-old cluster called NGC 6811. They found rotation periods ranging from 1 to 11 days (with hotter, more massive stars spinning faster), compared to the 30-day spin rate of our Sun. More importantly, they found a strong relationship between stellar mass and rotation rate, with little scatter. This result confirms that gyrochronology is a promising new method to learn the ages of isolated stars. Credit: Anthony Ayiomamiti
For many movie stars, their age is a well-kept secret. In space, the same is true of the actual stars. Like our sun, most stars look almost the same for most of their lives. So how can we tell if a star is one billion or 10 billion years old? Astronomers may have found a solution — measuring the star's spin.
"A star's rotation slows down steadily with time, like a top spinning on a table, and can be used as a clock to determine its age," says astronomer Soren Meibom of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.
Meibom presented his findings at the 218th meeting of the American Astronomical Society.
Knowing a star's age is important for many astronomical studies and in particular for planet hunters. With the bountiful harvest from NASA's Kepler spacecraft (launched in 2009) adding to previous discoveries, astronomers have found nearly 2,000 planets orbiting distant stars. Now, they want to use this new zoo of planets to understand how planetary systems form and evolve and why they are so different from each other.
"Ultimately, we need to know the ages of the stars and their planets to assess whether alien life might have evolved on these distant worlds," says Meibom. "The older the planet, the more time life has had to get started. Since stars and planets form together at the same time, if we know a star's age, we know the age of its planets too."
Learning a star's age is relatively easy when it's in a cluster of hundreds of stars that all formed at the same time. Astronomers have known for decades that if they plot the colors and brightnesses of the stars in a cluster, the pattern they see can be used to tell the cluster's age. But this technique only works on clusters. For stars not in clusters (including all stars known to have planets), determining the age is much more difficult.

Using the unique capabilities of the Kepler space telescope, Meibom and his collaborators measured the rotation rates for stars in a 1-billion-year-old cluster called NGC 6811. This new work nearly doubles the age covered by previous studies of younger clusters. It also significantly adds to our knowledge of how a star's spin rate and age are related.
If a relationship between stellar rotation and age can be established by studying stars in clusters, then measuring the rotation period of any star can be used to derive its age — a technique called gyrochronology (pronounced ji-ro-kron-o-lo-gee). For gyrochronology to work, astronomers first must calibrate their new "clock."
They begin with stars in clusters with known ages. By measuring the spins of cluster stars, they can learn what spin rate to expect for that age. Measuring the rotation of stars in clusters with different ages tells them exactly how spin and age are related. Then by extension, they can measure the spin of a single isolated star and calculate its age.
To measure a star's spin, astronomers look for changes in its brightness caused by dark spots on its surface — the stellar equivalent of sunspots. Any time a spot crosses the star's face, it dims slightly. Once the spot rotates out of view, the star's light brightens again. By watching how long it takes for a spot to rotate into view, across the star and out of view again, we learn how fast the star is spinning.
The changes in a star's brightness due to spots are very small, typically a few percent or less, and become smaller the older the star. Therefore, the rotation periods of stars older than about half a billion years can't be measured from the ground where Earth's atmosphere interferes. Fortunately, this is not a problem for the Kepler spacecraft. Kepler was designed specifically to measure stellar brightnesses very precisely in order to detect planets (which block a star's light ever so slightly if they cross the star's face from our point of view).
|Could identifying stars of a similar age to the Sun help astrobiologists dicover worlds like Earth? Image Credit: NASA
To extend the age-rotation relationship to NGC 6811, Meibom and his colleagues faced a herculean task. They spent four years painstakingly sorting out stars in the cluster from unrelated stars that just happened to be seen in the same direction. This preparatory work was done using a specially designed instrument (Hectochelle) mounted on the MMT telescope on Mt. Hopkins in southern Arizona. Hectochelle can observe 240 stars at the same time, allowing them to observe nearly 7000 stars over four years. Once they knew which stars were the real cluster stars, they used Kepler data to determine how fast those stars were spinning.
They found rotation periods ranging from 1 to 11 days (with hotter, more massive stars spinning faster), compared to the 30-day spin rate of our sun. More importantly, they found a strong relationship between stellar mass and rotation rate, with little scatter. This result confirms that gyrochronology is a promising new method to learn the ages of isolated stars.
The team now plans to study other, older star clusters to continue calibrating their stellar "clocks." Those measurements will be more challenging because older stars spin slower and have fewer and smaller spots, meaning that the brightness changes will be even smaller and more drawn out. Nevertheless, they feel up to the challenge.
"This work is a leap in our understanding of how stars like our sun work. It also may have an important impact on our understanding of planets found outside our solar system," said Meibom.
The paper reporting this research appears in the 20 May 2011 issue of The Astrophysical Journal Letters and is posted online: http://iopscience.iop.org/2041-8205/733/1/L9

NEW YORK -- The fields were sloppy, the view was sweet.
Eager New York fans turned out on a damp Friday night to watch the Yankees and Mets test their plush and pricey new ballparks in exhibition games, a double debut in a city that hasn't had a new Major League Baseball stadium in 45 years.
The faithful were awed. Given what these places cost, maybe they ought to be.
"When I pass, I want my ashes to be buried here. That's how beautiful it is," John Zozzaro of Glen Cove said as he admired $800 million Citi Field in Queens, where fans lavished praise on everything from the brilliant green of the outfield to the cup holders in front of the seats.
Across town, Frank Sinatra songs played as fans took in the new Yankee Stadium, bedecked with old Yankees memorabilia and pictures of team titans such as Babe Ruth. At $1.5 billion, it is the costliest baseball stadium ever built.
"It looks great. I think the word is 'majestic.' It's awesome," said 39-year-old Mike Generose. He and his wife, Lori, 24, had driven to the game from their home in Allentown, Pa.
The Mets' first pitch came first, delivered by Livan Hernandez and taken for a ball by Boston's Jacoby Ellsbury. An hour later, Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Yankee Stadium before a boisterous crowd.
The festive atmosphere lasted right to the end as both teams came away with victories. The Mets beat the Red Sox 4-3, with new closer Francisco Rodriguez getting the save. The Yankees hit three homers, including a three-run shot by Cody Ransom, Alex Rodriguez's injury replacement, and beat the Cubs 7-4.
Conditions weren't perfect for players or fans. It rained on and off throughout the day, and showers swept through the area in the evening, hitting both ballparks. The Mets game was delayed in the sixth inning.
Fans at both ballparks retreated from their seats to the warmth of the many restaurants and clubs at each spot.
But even before Derek Jeter started the Yankees' first inning with a double, the Hard Rock Cafe was jammed. Other fans were slow to get to their seats as the games started, taking time to wander through the concourses, snap photos and assess the buildings with a mix of excitement and nostalgia.
As a longtime Yankees fan who saw more than 200 games at the old House that Ruth Built, Mike Generose acknowledged feeling a bit sentimental about the Yankees' old park, still standing alongside the new venue.
"A little bit of your heart stays across the street," he said. "But I guess if you have to move, this is a good place to move into."
The Bronx stadium felt and sounded every bit like its urban setting, with elevated subway trains rumbling by within sight behind the outfield.
John Panzico lauded the ballpark's openness as he squeezed the new, cushioned seats.
"I grew up in the old stadium. I brought my children there," said the 62-year-old Panzico, who was raised on Staten Island and now lives in upstate Monroe. "I hope I'll be starting a new tradition at this stadium with my grandchildren."
Even some of the visiting teams' partisans had nice things to say about the New Yorkers' new digs.
To Brian Lowder of Boston, Citi Field far outshone the Mets' former park, Shea Stadium.
"The nostalgia wears thin when you're jammed into those seats," Lowder said, comparing Citi Field favorably even to Fenway Park, the old home of his beloved Red Sox.
A few fans paused on their way into Citi Field to take pictures of the nearby pile of rubble that once was Shea. Before them was a new ballpark complete with both baseball tributes -- including a rotunda dedicated to Jackie Robinson -- and a seemingly endless array of eating and shopping options.
But for many fans, the focus was on the field.
Joseph Clemente applauded the zig-zagging outfield's "nooks and crannies." Rich Ruiz rejoiced in upper-deck seats he said had better sight lines than similar spots at Shea -- and didn't give him the pitched-forward feeling the old park's upper deck did.
Joe Sherman, 58, an attorney from West Orange, N.J., arrived at Citi Field so early that the gates were still locked.
A season ticket holder for 31 years at Shea, Sherman said he couldn't afford his old seats behind home plate at the new Citi Field. But he didn't care.
"I'm in the ballpark, and that's what counts," he said.
Over in the Bronx, meanwhile, Yankees fan John Kovacs was asked whether he was interested in checking out the Mets' new digs. He scoffed.
"I'll check it out when the Yankees play there," he said.

News The Evils of Ortho-McNeil
Slog reader Gavin Cummins alerted us to this alarming piece on Slate about Orth-McNeil jacking up the price of the birth control pills it manufactures. This is a potentially crippling increase for publically funded clinics, who had previously paid as little as a penny a pack for the popular brand of pills. That a major pharmaceutical company would make a greedy move that jeopardizes the reproductive health of women is no shocker, but I think increasing the cost to as much as $18 a pack is positively obscene. The Stranger is waiting on commentary from our local Planned Parenthood affiliate and we'll have more information on the local impact of this change tomorrow.

Bizjet Showroom Opens in London
The Jet Business, which bills itself as "the world's first corporate aviation showroom for business jet aircraft," opens its doors this month at One Grosvenor Place in central London. The showroom, which will be open by appointment only, boasts a full-scale cabin mockup of an Airbus Corporate Jet in its front window. Floor-to-ceiling screens, running the length of the facility, can display full-size cabin cross sections and floor plans of the majority of available jets. The Jet Business' operators, who are not affiliated with any manufacturer, promise to provide impartial advice to buyers. We'll have more on this operation in the February/March issue of BJT.
Excellent idea. I am sure that "The Jet Business" will be very successful.

AUSTIN - They left their fingerprints on many of the major bills that crossed either chamber's floor.
They launched efforts to rewrite the hate crimes law and redefine abortion, deregulate the electricity business, and give poor children health insurance.
While not always the highest-ranked lawmakers, they were some of the key movers and shakers in the Legislature's 1999 session. Sen. Florence Shapiro Abortion opponents tried for years to require that parents be notified before minor girls undergo the medical procedure. They didn't get far until they gave it to the Republican from Plano. Now, it's about to become law.
"Parents, no matter if they are pro-choice or pro-life, care about their daughters and want to know what is happening in their lives," Shapiro said.
As chair of the Senate State Affairs Committee, Shapiro, 50, pushed bills to get tougher on kids illegally carrying guns and to impose tougher restrictions on sex offenders. Rep. Steve Wolens Although he never called a press conference and seldom addressed the House from the microphone, few big bills passed that the Dallas Democrat didn't work on.
He oversaw the complex bill to deregulate electricity. He led negotiations over abortion. As chairman of the House State Affairs Committee, he stalled efforts to prevent gays and lesbians from adopting children or acting as foster parents.
"I just like the pace and heartbeat of the Legislature," Wolens said of his 10th term. "All the elements of the social fabric of Texas come together to resolve differences." Sen. Rodney Ellis Although Democrats lost control of the Senate in 1996, Houston Democrat Ellis was a powerful voice for his party.
As sponsor of the ill-fated hate crimes bill, Ellis described himself as disappointed by its defeat but encouraged that it drew national attention and the support of President Clinton.
"Texas has had an ignoble history as relates to the issue of race and sex orientation," Ellis said the night the bill died. "It's too hot for you this session, but don't worry, I'll be back."
Ellis, 45, passed legislation to open college doors to 40,000 lower income students through a $100 million grant program. Rep. Paul Sadler Undisputed guru of education, it was Sadler who lobbied for - and won - a $3,000 pay raise for every teacher and millions of new dollars for kindergarten and ninth-grade programs.
His tough-minded stance during school funding negotiations won the Henderson Democrat respect from all quarters.
Said Republican Lt. Gov. Rick Perry: "What the Legislature is all about (is) competing interests coming together and splitting differences. Unless it's education - then you do everything that Paul wants." Sen. David Sibley The Waco Republican led efforts to deregulate the electricity and telephone businesses and to give tax incentives to businesses for job creation and research and development work.
Although active and vocal on the Senate floor, Sibley didn't care much for the attention he drew as a Republican leader in heated hate crimes debate.
"Princess Di must have been miserable," Sibley said under his breath as TV cameras chased him down a Capitol hallway. Rep. Patricia Gray The chairwoman of the House Public Health Committee shepherded sweeping legislation to provide health insurance to hundreds of thousands of poor Texas children.
It provides insurance coverage for children from birth to age 18 if their parents earn up to 200 percent - or twice - the federal poverty level. That would amount to about $33,600 for a family of four.
"The CHIP program is so important because one out of every 10 uninsured children in the United States live in Texas," said Gray, D-Galveston.

I first thought I would not have time to get the kids' Halloween outfits ready on time and here we go~ I pulled it off! This year the theme is "Wizard of Oz!

I'm also a free-lancing translator/interpreter (English-Russian-English, French-Russian). I love studying languages but I must admit that Yiddish has turned out to be easier than Japanese. :)
I can't live without Stephen Fry TV shows, U2, Georgian cuisine, Jewish studies, and new impressions.
I also love traveling and have been to 30+ countries, so I like people who are open to the world too. I lived in Italy and France before moving to the Netherlands for personal reasons.

Retributivist accounts of punishment maintain that it is right to punish wrongdoers, even if the punishment has no future benefits. Research in experimental economics indicates that people are willing to pay to punish defectors. A complementary line of work in social psychology suggests that people think that it is right to punish wrongdoers. This work suggests that people are retributivists about punishment. However, all of the extant work contains an important potential confound. The target of the punishment is expected to be aware of the punitive act. Thus, it's possible that people punish because they want to communicate something to the wrongdoer, e.g. disapproval, the presence of a norm, etc. In three studies, we examine whether people will punish even when the punishee will be ignorant. We find that people are no less likely to punish when the punishee will be ignorant. This finding emerges both in a survey study and in a monetized behavioural decision study.

His relentless energy and ethnic stereotypes were made for the low-brow world of roasting.

You might ask who is Nikola Tesla.
We have all heard of Thomas Alva Edison - the man behind the first commercially efficient light bulb and the direct current (DC). However, during the same time, Tesla and George Westinghouse - the man who funded Tesla's works - were demonstrating how an alternating current (AC) was more practical to develop since it could transmit electricity to further distances than Edison's direct current and require even thinner wires. This is not unlike other competitions we have seen since then: the VHS/Betamax format war or the Apple vs Microsoft operating system battle or, the more current, Apple and Samsung smartphone war.
The Battle of Currents had begun and in the end the United States electrical grid switched to the AC form of electric power.
Aside from this, Tesla worked on several other things including a tower which
Houston will soon have a new attraction at the Johnson Space Center. Although this is not one of the real orbiters from the retired shuttle fleet, Texas is still embracing it as a tribute to the shuttle program. The shuttle replica, scheduled to open in 2015, will be the only such attraction in the nation to allow visitors to actually step foot inside of it. A contest to name the shuttle will begin on July 4th. To see the rules and to vote, click here.

To the Editor: Dr Erickson and colleagues1 concluded that patients with managed care insurance
were less likely than those with fee-for-service (FFS) insurance to undergo
coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at hospitals with lower mortality rates.
However, the data in Table 1 of their article provide evidence that CABG inpatient
mortality rates among patients enrolled in managed care plans are equal to
or better than mortality rates among those in non–managed care plans.
The authors minimize this central finding because they focus on the likelihood
of using "lower-mortality hospitals," a very difficult metric to interpret.

Trying to enable S3 as a CDN causes the plugin to say Testing and nothing happens for like 5 minutes it then goes back to the settings home page.
Is there an issue with this part of the Plugin?
Trying to enable S3 as a CDN causes the plugin to say Testing and nothing happens for like 5 minutes it then goes back to the settings home page.
Is there an issue with this part of the Plugin?
I was having the same issue as you describe on WP3.0.
Turned out all I had to do was use the development version of the plugin instead of the latest stable.
William Weidendorf is correct.
it would be good to put this somewhere prominently in the plugin page - i've been working on this for hours!
OK I'm using the Dev version - I've lost my Featured Content Gallery and my favicon. This was happening with the previous version as well - how do I troubleshoot this?
I've got my FCG back now - somehow - and I'm using Amazon CloudFront, BTW.
BuddyPress pages are still loading VERY slow.
@CatScholz74 issues are not related to this topic, those continue here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/425413
Where do you get the dev version?
I am running version 0.8.5.2 and that testing error still pops up.
Also, when I try and actually upload files, nothing happens. It will process for three seconds and then say "Request Failed."
The weirdest thing is that it uploaded about 4 themes and started uploading blogs.dir, but then it suddenly stopped.
Also, I am curious: After I upload the current files, will it just automatically upload new files to Amazon S3 afterwards? So if a new user creates a blog and uploads an image, it will automatically go to Amazon S3?
Thanks for helping me clear up these issues.
Dev version here:
How did it go @BenNadler?
"me too"
Version 0.8.5.2 did not work (test did not finish, ever), current development version seems to work perfectly. This is using Amazon S3 and WordPress 3.0.
Do you have any kind of timeline or goal for making a new release? Is there anything we can do to help you (code, testing, documentation)?
I'd like to use the CDN functionality on a customer site, but I am a bit hesitant to use development software.
The development software is completely stable. I'm not done with the FAQ / interface changes.

Students of Marine families receive scholarships at Camp Lejeune
The Marine Corp Scholarship Foundation (MCSF) hosted its 2013 scholarship award ceremony at Camp Lejeune.
More than 50 students attended the event at the Marston Pavilion Friday night. During the ceremony, the MCSF announced it has awarded $6.5 million to more than 2,000 Marine children. North Carolina has the highest number of scholarship recipients, said Jeanna Adams, the assistant director of scholarship programs.
Over the course of 51 years, the MCSF has given more than $80 million to 30,000 students, according to Adams.
Catalina Cortis, a scholarship recipient and speaker at Friday's ceremony, expressed her gratitude.
"All of us have been supporting our parents and the MCSF recognizes all of that. And it is an honor to be a part of that," Cortis said.
This year, several companies showed their support at the event, including Hewlett-Packard. HP gave away nine Slate 7 tablets to several recipients through drawings at the ceremony. Companies like Rock Creek Capital were also present.

text: No matter how preposterous, these rumors persist. We want to believe them. Like all myths, these represent elements in human psychology that we don't completely understand. The Devil's Counterpoint First, great talent clearly bothers us. The appearance of genius is disturbing on some level and we have to account for it. Musical gifts like Paganini's or Johnson's is like a lightning strike -- powerful, wonderful and terrifying. They highlight our own weaknesses, our inadequacies, our mortality. Calling it evil and unnatural makes it a lot easier to swallow, especially if we loop in eternal damnation for the Uber-Freak. Second, the Devil story isn't told about every talented or famous musician. John Lennon, but not Paul McCartney. George Gershwin perhaps, but not George M. Cohan. Only the hip few are chosen. Squares need not apply. There is something subversive about each of these artists, an air of danger. The playing style is daring and supremely confident, the lifestyle often reckless. Where the rumor is strongest, the music is also invasive, punching through the comfortable envelope of polite, established style to touch us in a very personal way. It's sexy dark, like a vampire coming right for us, homing in on a vein. Third, the Devil apparently doesn't give every soul the same terms. Paganini lived into his 50s -- a good, long life in those days. He was one of the most famous and wealthiest musicians in the world at the time of his death. Hendrix was equally famous in his time, if not so wealthy, but died at only 27. Also 27 when died, Johnson was relatively unknown, a wandering performer living hand to mouth, who almost accidentally left a body of recorded songs. Prev 1 of 3 Next

An Official Website of the Commonwealth of Kentucky
The King Day of Service is a way to transform the life and teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. into community service that helps solve social problems.
Each January, Americans of every age and background celebrate Dr. King through service projects that strengthen communities, empower individuals and break down barriers.
Explore the national Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service website to learn more about MLK Day.
On the 2016 MLK Day of Service, Kentucky AmeriCorps, Senior Corps and AmeriCorps VISTA members completed 184 service projects with 1,122 community volunteers, providing 2,695 hours of service!
Check out photos on Facebook or search for #MLKDay on social media platforms to find out more about what happened on the national day of service.
Want to know what happened across the nation? Check out the CNCS recap on Storify.
In 1994, Congress passed the King Holiday and Service Act, designating the King Holiday as a national day of volunteer service. Instead of a day off from work or school, Congress asked Americans of all backgrounds and ages to celebrate Dr. King's legacy by turning community concerns into citizen action.
The King Day of Service brings together people who might not ordinarily meet, breaks down barriers that have divided us in the past, leads to better understanding and ongoing relationships, and is an opportunity to recruit new volunteers for your ongoing work.

Blank pattern chart?
Where can i get a blank pattern chart like the heart on from about.com? (The double knitted one?) http://knitting.about.com/library/blheartpad.htm
i want to create my own design!
I would go to the store and buy a pad of graphing paper...the green printed kind has more guiding lines, so you probably want the white kind with 1/4" boxes. They're really cheap and you can probably get them at the grocery store.
This is interesting, assuming you have this program.
1 Attachment(s)
I used Excel to chart for my brothers' Charlie Brown zigzag hat...just stet the column width & row height to the same size, and tell Page Setup that you want to print the gridlines...
OMG Mer, that article is BRILLIANT!!! I have something I want to make in a year or so, and this will help me save days, if not weeks, of frustration.
And someone posted this site earlier somewhere in KH:
I just found this today...but that Knitty article is fantastic!
The free online graph paper is a great thing. I just printed a sheet out and am gonna make myself some kind of pattern. Thanks. ~Brooke
Wow, that Knitty article was great -- thanks for posting it!! I created an action in Photoshop (like a macro) that does all the steps...what a timesaver!!
This is a little download....you can choose the size of graph per inch. Right now it is being mostly used for mthe 9 yo's math homework. i've planned many a quilt with this!!!

I'm revising my previous good reviews of this hotel. We've stayed at the LaQuinta Inn in Loveland many times over the past few years while visiting family in the area. We used to like the hotel and experience. This past weekend we stayed in two King Suites. We were shocked how bad the experience was. The staff isn't friendly anymore. Our room had pretzels on the carpet indicating that they hadn't vacuumed the carpet. The pool and spa water looked nasty. We don't use them anymore because the ladies got infections after using them last time. The public restroom near the pool area was DISGUSTING ! While riding the elevator our two year old granddaughter said, "Dog Poop". We looked down and there's a pile of dog poop in the corner of the elevator. We were woke up in the middle of the night by someone trying to get into our room. We couldn't wait to get out of that hotel. They really need to fire the manager and start over. This was the nicest mid priced hotel in Loveland. Now it's disgusting. They need to hire a friendly staff. They need to hire a maintenance staff that knows how to take care of a pool and spa. They need to hire a cleaning staff that can clean the public restrooms and run the vacuum. If they're going to allow pets they need to make a regular inspection of the premises and look for dog poop inside and out. Next time we'll stay in a hotel in Ft. Collins.

Lowest price I have seen for this Touchpad so far!
Two left at ME if you really want this thing, you can PM and get it for ~$2.50 cheaper. I foresee these things going to $30 or even lower pretty fast though.
At this price why would you not get an Apple Magic Trackpad instead? Unless you're a raving Applephobe...
Most people get trackpads to use with Windows 8, Magic Trackpad does not support Windows 8 gestures. Why pay more for something that has 1/10th the function of this? It's not about being a "raving Applephobe," just being a bit logical with purchases.
But maybe I'm wrong, please explain to me why I would consider the trackpad over this, other then to have an "Apple" product.

Tender Chicken Gizzards
Total Time
Prep 50 mins
Cook 5 mins
Mom made this for us kids and it became something that was requested. Hard to believe, an organ meat that my mother turned into what we, as kids, considered delectable.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 -2 lb chicken gizzard (rinsed)
- 1 -2 cup flour (divided)
- 2 liters Coca-Cola
- 3 eggs
- 1⁄2 cup real butter
- 1 -2 teaspoon of multi spice seasoning (I prefer Mortons Natures Seasons for this)
- Bring 2 liters of Coca-Cola to a rolling boil in a large stockpot.
- Place rinsed gizzards in boiling pot.
- Bring back to a rolling boil, reduce heat to steady simmer for 35 to 45 minutes.
- Remove gizzards and drain.
- Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes. The cooler the better.
- In the divided flour, mix the seasoning in one half (leaving the other half plain). Beat the eggs well-- place the butter in a medium-large skillet and heat until hot, while not burning.
- Take cooled gizzards, dredge in flour,egg, then seasoned flour.
- Place the gizzards in the fry pan and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, turning occasionally. Remove when golden brown.
Most Helpful
These are without a doubt the best gizzards I have ever had. And trust me I've been eating them since I was a kid(20+ yrs). I give them 20 stars!! The first time I made them with all coke & they were too sweet, cokey tasting. Since then I use about 2/3 bottle coke and some water, maybe 3 cups or so and they are soooo tender and yummy. For my seasoned flour I use black pepper, season salt, onion powder & garlic powder. Also I just deep fry in veg.oil instead of pan frying in butter. Thanks for posting Joe!!
I thought these were the worst gizzards I've tried. The coke didn't seem to tenderize the meat but made it mushy, almost like a liver consistency. Not at all impressed. Sorry
Were Great! I did mine alittle different.I De-Fizzed the Coke and used it for liquid in the pressure cooker for 20 min, followed along with the rest and were so good my Wife most of them!! Had to make another batch. Thanks

No Wauwatosa? I hope that's just an oversight on Verizon's press release
GRRR When is Sprint's 4G going to get here? I've been paying the
"premium" service for almost a year now and receive no service :(
Sounds like something I might've written when I was a Verizon customer. They're supposed to be great but all I got was terrible service and shrugs from their customer service reps. Even had dropped calls outdoors.
Electric Wizard - It is slowly being built. Go to clear.com and browse the coverage map to Milwaukee. The airport has coverage as well as NW of downtown. Some parts of Madison and other cities in WI. Technically this is in the "testing" phase right now. I was using it in a few spots in Madison yesterday.
Now how about a 4G Iphone?
@Frylock: A Verizon spokesman confirms that Wauwatosa is included in the coverage expansion. I will update the blog post accordingly. Thanks for the comment!
@Greg In OC: a 4G iPhone would be hot
Thanks for getting an answer on that Stanley!
LTE iPhone won't happen for another year at least. Apple won't do it until more of the country has LTE.

Um, is this ths same NYT article where the writer, one Leslie Wayne, REFUSED an offer to interview people who have actually benefited from the programs made available by Center for Promise?
Kos was all over this one earlier this afternoon, BTW...
I'd say what he makes me think of, but most of you know, and the rest do not want to know, and the ones who do know have expressed that they never wanted to know.
How Maureen Dowd of you, Josh. Sure beats digging up real news, doesn't it?
This "scandal" is weaker than your "Tommy" review.
I'm still not supporting HRC, josh. sorry.
Good on Kos and all.
However, even if Edwards's non-profit was having success with its mission, the idea that the group was a "shadow political apparatus" for Edwards is pretty convincing.
from http://www.dailyhowler.com/dh062207.shtml
"Edwards didnt do anything wrong! But we get this statement in the next-to-last paragraph, after 1700 words of insinuation. By the way, you should always be suspicious of formulations about 'working right up to the line.' Guess what, readers? Legislatures draw legal lines so citizens will know where their efforts must stop. When you drive 65 in your car, youre 'working right up to the line.'"
I gave up on the NYT political reporting years ago; it's so haphazard and randomly oscillates between tearing down politicians and acting as their official stenographers (especially those pesky anonymous government sources). Their credibility is almost as nonexistent as the Seattle Times.
On more than one occasion, I've been tempted to take some white shoe polish and write "Lies for Sale" on their boxes around town.
The presidency,
A long race to the finish.
Edwards, toe the line.
Original Andrew,
I agree about nonexistent credibility, but I'm not sure the oscillation (at least regarding political candidates) is entirely "haphazard" or "random"....over the last decade or more the formula has been pretty consistent:
Democratic candidates -> tearing down
Republican candidates -> official stenographer
Dino? Is he some closeted Red Mayor from Spokane?
Working 'right up to the line' is smart. Why are we criticizing that? It's what the ambitious do and John Edwards is ambitious.
Josh, I'm surprised at you. Have you studied John Edwards' platform? He's WAY more progressive than Hilary or Obama.
How much better would this world be if presidential hopefuls started non-profits and leveraged their political supporters in between elections?
Whatever with John Edwards V. Hillary.
I'm pointing out that Dino Rossi may run into the same criticism.
And I bet when he does you all will embrace it.
Partisan zombie faces.
David @ 10,
Good point; and I should add that theres a special place in Hell for that shameless liar, Judy Miller.
One of the most interesting aspects of the last few years has been how the press has been obsessed and fascinated with the Republicans, especially Bush, and the total denial theyve shown regarding their unpopularity.
I realized awhile back thats what Republicans and the American press really want: An authoritarian daddy figure to tell them what to think, what to wear, what to fear, who to hate and have Tony Snow shove a hose up their bums twice a week and flush it all out (tip of the hat to Ab Fab).
They dont care that daddy is totally bonkers and has killed over half a million people his craziness sells newspapers which in turn moves ad space.
@14 - true, but at least she did some time.
The question is, will Libby spend any time behind bars before his pardon?
i challenge you to point out one issue on which Hilary is more progressive than John Edwards. I used to love that woman's politics but she sold out on us and i can't get behind her. If she wins the Democratic nomination I will but until then my support goes to the best contender - which is clearly John Edwards (much as i want to support the woman and the black man running for Pres).
The world has become so damn corrupt that we need someone in office who can affect drastic change and is not going to roll over or turn a blind eye for the Republicans. You think Hilary's going to do that? i don't.
JH v HRC. Shrug.
This post is about Dino Rossi.
Drudge much?
I'm with call me a snot on this one, Josh. Edwards has shown more clear-spoken gumption than the other democratic candidates so far, and his positions have been more progressive as well. I've been very uncomfortable with the positions HRC has taken - they are just too calculated, too dishonest.
what a non-story. maybe hillary's got an oppo research position open for you. or maybe she'll just have you review theater.
Josh- having to keep reposting to your own thread, in a vain attempt to redirect conversation towards an alleged "point" of the piece, is sort of like having to explain a joke. It's clear and compelling evidence that the original comment was ill-constructed. Sorry.
Obligatory JE comment: "...he was working right up to the line. Who knows whether he stepped or stumbled over it." Yes, who could possibly know whether someone broke the law. There are so many laws, and they contain so many words- oh, wait. There are lawyers? And courts? Never mind. What chickenshit, passive-aggressive bullshit.
Our enemies bend the rules all the time. I *want* a Dem who will leave no stone unturned in his or her effort to rest control from the Rs. This is the first sign I've seen that JE might have the stones to go all the way on this one. Yet for now I'm still supporting HRC.
i challenge you to point out one issue on which Hilary is more progressive than John Edwards. I used to love that woman's politics but she sold out on us and i can't get behind her.
You might actually want to check out their voting records. There was a series of diaries at DailyKos that laid out every single vote where Edwards and Clinton voted differently.
He also did Obama and Clinton.
