Skip to comments.What Did Michelle Obama Say to the President During the 9/11 Ceremony?
Posted on 06/17/2012 5:22:13 PM PDT by Daffynition
A spirited debate broke out on Glenn Becks radio show on Thursday morning regarding video that has surfaced showing Barack and Michelle Obama during a 9/11 ceremony. It shows Michelle whispering something to Barack, Barack nodding back, and Michelle making a facial expression in response. Some, such as Glenn and Pat, say it shows Michelle saying something disrespectful. Others, such as Stu and intern Adam, disagree.
Heres the video [at various speeds]:
(Excerpt) Read more at theblaze.com ...
Yes, folks, that is what she said, according to an instructor at a School for the Deaf and Blind who watched the video. The video is shown at normal speed, 3/4 speed, and 1/2 speed with no banners obstructing her lips.
***To settle the issue, he brought on Adam the intern, who has been deaf most his life and has had to read lips to communicate. What does Adam think she said?
Look at how they fold that flag, Adam said.***
You really can live your entire adult life in Chicago and never once feel American.
I saw two fs and think fold the flag is closer to the truth
Her Comment was;
"All that over folding a flag"
"Let's get out of here. There's tons of cash waiting!"
I always thought she said: you stupid f@g
It's really a shame we have to ponder issues like this, but when someone says they've never been proud of this nation before, at the age of 40, it's makes it a bit difficult not to be suspect of their subsequent actions.
These two need to sail off into the sunset, and live out their lives as they see fit, and leave us alone. Hopefully they'll do it in Kenya...
I don't know how "settled" it is. I, too, watched it closely a number of times and I believe she said, "All this for a d&*med flag?"
Could you really see her living in Kenya? ;)
I'd rather not see her.
I couldn't tell a dang thing.
By choice? No.
She's too special to have to live in a nation like that.
Who is going to pay to cart her ass all over the U. S. after next January?
Answer: NOBODY!!!
The Obama's must answer and tell us exactly what was said.
If not, someone needs to sue.
I watched as many times as I could stomach seeing them but it looks like she said "All this for a damn flag"
Thanks...I *searched* those exact words. Once again, the search function fails me.
Yeah, it was posted here back when it happened. You have to do a special kind of search to go back more than one month now.
I agree! I don't think she said damn flag. It looks more like, All this over folding a flag or All this about folding a flag.
I think she says "All this for a f*ckin' flag."
You failed the search function practical application exercise.
Yup. Agreed.
That picture says it all. The difference is between the most powerful man in the world asking humbly for the guidance of a loving God, and an arrogant man who knows he is about seize power and knows he needs nothing from God.
What else does anyone need to know?
That picture says it all. The difference is between the most powerful man in the world asking humbly for the guidance of a loving God, and an arrogant man who knows he is about seize power and knows he needs nothing from God.
What else does anyone need to know?
Sorry for the double. Damned iPad...
Barack nods somberly, submitting.
Some people are going to see what they want to see and the words they are saying they see are not even CLOSE to what was said. Others are close...but no cigar. As someone who is hard of hearing...I got tired over the years of asking people to repeat themselves...so I mostly watch peoples mouths when I talk to them instead of looking them in the eyes...unless they talk really loud (drives my wife crazy).
It's hard to say exactly what she says in the beginning because of the seam in the glass...but she certainly says "fold that flag." Looking at the glimpses of her lips you can see before that phrase...and using common sense..."look at how they fold that flag" is most likely what she said. But she certainly said "fold that flag"
A guy who's been reading lips all his life said this.
It looks like that to me, too. I'm not an expert but all of the other things people are suggesting don't seem to fit the lip movements.
I don't like her at all and I know she is not big on this country, but not everything she says is hateful.
Yes, it is. She's only in the White House with her Quisling, lying, America-hating usurper of a gay Kommie "husband" so she can assist him in the destruction of America.
Nice to know she's got one fan here on FR, though.
Wookie facial expressions. No one does it better than these guys:
Oi! How am I supposed to remember that? TBI taxed. :(
I think she says All this for a f*ckin flag.
That is what it looks like to me.
I think you are overlooking something significant....I think Micheles slight sneer and head shake at the end pretty clearly indicates that whatever she said about the flag was more negative than positive.
Where's that *body language expert* from BOR when you need her?
I also agree that the lip-reader's version is probably correct and, if that is what she said (and you don't see her saying it), it's not necessarily a hateful statement.
But the problem for me is her facial expression—she looks disgusted with the people folding the flag. If you watch the video you can see that the folders are not experts-they're just ordinary folks doing the best they can. I don't have a problem with them, since their intentions were probably genuine.She thinks she is an expert on military issues, since one of her causes is supporting military families, which is just a farce, but that's a whole separate debate for another day. Seeing her on this video says to me that she is probably a demanding, negative, difficult person to live with and I'm sure Barack and everyone that works at the White House catches fire from her all of the time.
I agree with you 100%. Just the fact that she said those words and both Michelle and Barrack had little smiling sneers indicated to me they were making fun of the formality of folding the flag but I do not think she used the word damn or F&#king flag. I think she carefully gaged herself from showing a saying anything to emotional all though I think in private she would have used those words.
Oh, cut the crap! So, she's walking down the street and says to her daughter, "Look at that little bird." AHHH! Hateful! Hateful!
I already said I don't like her and I will add that she is generally a snarling, sneering, enemy of the America we love and the wife of a man brought up by commies, so YOU decide to classify me as a fan of hers. Right.
Oh, here's another example of me being her "fan" from the WTC topping off:

Just about every other year, more or less like clockwork, Joel Coen and Ethan Coen unleash another film on audiences across the world. Fans of their work will probably be delighted by Hail, Caesar!, which opens this weekend and really resembles some of the most overtly comedic work from the Coens. It's got an A list cast and an Old Hollywood setting, which will make some folks assume this is a prestige picture. In reality though, this is more of a romp and an example of the filmmaking brothers just having a grand old time. It didn't thrill me like it will thrill others, but I suspect this won't be another big Oscar player of theirs, regardless.
The film is a look at the day in the life of a Hollywood fixer. Eddie Mannix (Josh Brolin) works at a big studio in the early 1950's, making sure that all of the stars stay out of trouble, and more importantly…stay out of the papers. When top star Baird Whitlock (George Clooney) goes missing, Eddie is given his toughest assignment yet. For the most part, this movie is largely plotless, checking in on the Baird situation from time to time, but by and large just following around Eddie as he interacts with stars like Hobie Doyle (Alden Ehrenreich), starlets like DeeAnna Moran (Scarlett Johansson), and filmmakers like Laurence Laurentz (Ralph Fiennes). Obviously, Joel and Ethan Coen direct, with the rest of the cast including Jonah Hill, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, Channing Tatum, and many more. Behind the camera, the legend that is Roger Deakins does the cinematography.
What works for me here with Hail, Caesar! is the feel for what the movie industry used to be like. In many ways, this has the tone and feel of a number of other funny flicks from the Coen Brothers, so if you're down with something like The Big Lebowski, I suspect this will work for you as well. Those aren't my favorites, so I can be hit or miss with the brothers Coen, but that shouldn't prevent you from enjoying. Certain members of the cast, like Johansson and Tatum, steal the show too, so there's that as well. It's a mixed bag, but not without its charms.
Awards wise, I think this will have a hard road ahead, though one or two categories might be promising. Still, with a decent box office haul, I have no doubt […]

The Coen Brothers are back with "Hail, Caesar!"

Brad Pitt – "Moneyball": The Best Baseball Films of All Time
Play ball! With Baseball season coming next week, I wanted to do something a little bit fun and look at not just the best sports movies, but the best baseball movies ever made. There's more than a few to choose from, with a solid handful starring Kevin Costner, I might add. I'm even going to make some potentially controversial choices, as you'll see below. It's all in good fun though, and as I get set to spend another year getting my heart broken by the New York Mets, I wanted to put this out there for you all. Enjoy and get ready for baseball…
Here are the ten best baseball movies of all time:
10. Rookie of the Year – Perhaps a lot of this is nostalgia fueling the pick, but I have a real soft spot for the story of a kid who winds up pitching for the Chicago Cubs. It's wish fulfillment for pre teen boys and a little on the scattershot side, but it's certainly got a charm. I couldn't resist putting this on my list, since it's, you know…my list.
9. Major League – Baseball often transitions to comedy, with this film perhaps being the most successful pure comedic outing of the lot. The sports movie cliches and elements are handled well here, but they're buoyed by the laughs that are liberally spread out through the entire film. It's just a ton of fun.
8. Fever Pitch – I really dug the look at baseball fandom contained within this romantic comedy. I'm not sure how appealing it is to die hard baseball fans of sole rom-com nuts, but if you have an affinity for both sides, this merges the two worlds surprisingly well. I think it's incredibly underrated, quite frankly.
7. Little Big League – The slightly more mature version of Rookie of the Year's wish fulfillment, this movie looks more at coaching and the front office than at playing ball. It's still plenty silly, but the premise gets a little bit more gravitas, as it were. Still, nostalgia is at work here, no doubt about that.
6. The Natural – An undisputed classic, I'm not quite a high on it as most others, but I still recognize it for what it is. This is a great film that perhaps suffers a small bit from heavy praise, but clearly deserves its place in history all the same. I like it a lot, […]
Anton Yelchin in "5 to 7": Ten Movies to see in April
Happy April Fools' Day folks! I'm going to keep it serious here today though and give you a look at what the month of April has to offer in terms of theatrical releases. I'm going to be getting back into the rhythm of doing this every month, so consider this just the first of many. Obviously, there are more than the ten releases I'm mentioning, but this could wind up as the cream of the crop by the end of the month. I've also seen a good number of these, so that works as an added bonus in figuring out what to recommend…
Here now are ten April releases to really look forward to:
10. Furious 7 – We all know that everyone is going to see this much hyped sequel staring Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, so this is almost a besides the point mention. Still, in a lean-ish month like April, it certainly stands out as the only real blockbuster of note. It could rule the box office until May 1st when Avengers: Age of Ultron shatters records.
9. Monsters: Dark Continent – A sequel to a very solid indie that catapulted Gareth Edwards into the director's chair for Godzilla. The first one was a real surprise, so I'll be curious to see if this one can turn this into a viable franchise. I'll be seeing it later on this week, so stay tuned…
8. Woman in Gold – Opening today, this is something that would have otherwise seemed like a fall/winter awards bait offering. Helen Mirren attempting to get valuables back from the Nazis after World War II? Sounds baity to me. Ryan Reynolds co-stars in something that you can literally check out once you finish reading this.
7. Misery Loves Comedy – Actor/comedian Kevin Pollak's documentary about if comedians really have to be sad in order to be funny really has my attention. I'm hoping to see it shortly at the Tribeca Film Festival, so while I can't vouch for it, it does seem like the prime doc for April.
6. Child 44 – Here's another one time Oscar hopeful that's instead opening in the early spring. Tom Hardy and Gary Oldman get a chance to re-unite after sharing the screen in The Dark Knight Rises. The buzz is muted on this one, but it likely will have something solid to offer.
5. Clouds of Sils Maria – When I saw this one […]
2015 MTV Movie Award nominations are more respectable than usual
Yesterday, the MTV Movie Award nominations were announced for 2015. Normally, that's not the sort of thing that I care even a little bit about, but lo and behold…the films and performances cited happen to be far more respectable than normal. The nominations were led by The Fault in Our Stars, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Neighbors, which each came away with 7 citations. There also happened to be multiple nominations scored for Boyhood, Gone Girl, Selma, and Whiplash, among others. This will never become any kind of noteworthy precursor, for sure (especially when it happens after the Oscars are already held), but hey…a step in the right direction is a step in the right direction.
Let me be perfectly clear, there are still plenty of terrible choices here, but the overall list is far better than you'd ever expect it to be. In fact, aside from an obvious bent towards some teen centric movies, this more or less resembles what a number of precursors with a mainstream tilt look like. It's not inconceivable that in the next year or so these awards will gain a small measure of respect. Think closer to the People's Choice Awards as opposed to even the Golden Globe Awards, but hey…it's a start. Every awards show needs to start somewhere, right?
Sure, you could focus on the nominations for things like Annabelle, The Boy Next Door, Horrible Bosses 2, The Maze Runner, The Other Woman, The Purge: Anarchy, and The Wedding Ringer, but why do that? They also went for all of those aforementioned Oscar contenders, so that's where the focus should be. This isn't a nomination list to pay too much attention to, but a quick glance does give you a bit of confidence that the next generation of filmgoer isn't solely concerned with YA franchise adaptions.
Here now is the full nominations list for the 2015 MTV Movie Awards:
Movie of the Year
American Sniper
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Guardians of the Galaxy
Gone Girl
The Fault In Our Stars
Best Female Performance
Jennifer Lawrence – The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1
Emma Stone – Birdman
Shailene Woodley – The Fault In Our Stars
Reese Witherspoon – Wild
Scarlett Johansson – Lucy
Best Male Performance
Bradley Cooper – American Sniper
Chris Pratt – Guardians of the Galaxy
Ansel Elgort – The Fault In Our Stars
Miles Teller – Whiplash
Channing Tatum – Foxcatcher

Jennifer Lopez – The Boy Next Door

Based on actual events, Finkel?s relentless pursuit of Longo?s true story encompasses murder, love, deceit and redemption.
Movies to look forward to at the Sundance Film Festival
This week, the Sundance Film Festival gets underway, seeking to highlight the best in independent film. I won't be in Park City this year, sadly, though I have been in the past and can vouch for it as a really unique and enjoyable (if exhausting) festival to attend. In honor of its 2015 start, I wanted to run down some of the higher profile titles that could make a dent on the awards season later on this year. If not Oscar players, these could at least become the indie darlings of the season, or perhaps just crossover successes. Had I been in attendance at Sundance, there's almost two dozen movies that I'd be hoping to catch, but I whittled a list down to just ten of the ones I want to highlight most. Take a look…
Here are ten films to look forward to once they leave Sundance:
10. Digging For Fire – In the last few years, Joe Swanberg has really upped his game, not only in terms of casting bigger names, but also coming up with compelling plots that still fit his unique filmmaking personality. Hopefully he continues the trend with this latest venture, which features a great cast, including Rosemarie DeWit, Jake Johnson (who co-wrote the script), Anna Kendrick, Brie Larson, Ron Livingston, Chris Messina, Sam Rockwell, and Jenny Slate, along with many others. Swanberg is on a high, so fingers crossed here.
9. I Smile Back – I was impressed by Sarah Silverman's partly dramatic turn a couple years ago in Take This Waltz, so a full on serious role has me very intrigued. Silverman co-stars with Josh Charles and Thomas Sodoski in the story of an unhappy married woman lashing out with numerous vices. Silverman deserves this sort of a role, so I'll be eager to see if she aces it.
8. A Walk in the Woods – Festival godfather Robert Redford stars here with Nick Nolte in a movie about old men talking, essentially. Doesn't immediately sound too amazing, but I have to say, the chance to witness them going back and forth is rather appealing. It'll likely be a mellow film, but I'm down to check it out.
7. Brooklyn – The latest script from novelist turned screenwriter Nick Hornby is a period piece set in 1950's Ireland. Saoirse Ronan is the star, along with supporting players Jim Broadbent, Emory Cohen, and Domhnall Gleeson. This one seems to […]

The 84th Academy Awards: If I had been a voter
Once again today I'm going to be taking a look back at a recent Oscar lineup and explaining what my vote would have been in each of the big eight categories we all follow so intently each season. I previously mentioned that potentially I could do this once a week with previous Academy Award ceremonies, and while I'm going to be truing to do that, time will still tell. Again, if nothing else, this gives you an interesting look into my cinematic tastes. Over the course of the year you can sort of get a feel for what my current favorites are, but now we can look to the past a bit more.
Alright, here goes nothing:
Best Picture – Moneyball
The nominees here for this ceremony were The Artist, The Descendants, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, The Help, Hugo, Midnight in Paris, Moneyball, The Tree of Life, and War Horse. Obviously The Artist took it in real life, and Drive would have been my clear pick had it been nominated, but if I had been a voter my choice would have been between The Descendants, Midnight in Paris, and Moneyball. At the time, The Descendants would have been my pick, but now I think I lean towards Moneyball, so that would wind up getting my vote for Best Picture.
Best Director – Alexander Payne for The Descendants
I'd have voted for Nicolas Winding Refn here for Drive, but unsurprisingly he wasn't nominated. The actual nominees were Woody Allen for Midnight in Paris, Michel Hazanavicius for The Artist, Terrence Malick for The Tree of Life, Alexander Payne for The Descendants, and Martin Scorsese for Hugo. Without Refn, I don't have anyone I'm too wild about, but I think Payne might be the best of the bunch. The aforementioned Refn is easily my personal pick overall, but Payne is my choice of the actual nominees.
Best Actor – Brad Pitt for Moneyball
In a perfect world, I'd have seen either Michael Fassbender rewarded for Shame, Ryan Gosling in the lineup for Drive, Tom Hardy cited for Warrior, or Michael Parks in for Red State and subsequently any of them would have been my vote (likely Fassbender), but such is life. The actual nominees here though were Demián Bichir for A Better Life, George Clooney for The Descendants, Jean Dujardin for The Artist, Gary Oldman for Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, and Brad Pitt for Moneyball. The choice of these […]
The 86th Academy Awards: If I had been a voter
I'm possibly going to be trying out a new series here. Essentially, today I'll be going back and looking at the most recent Oscars and explaining what my vote would have been in each of the big eight categories. Potentially, I could do this once a week with previous Academy Award ceremonies, so there's a chance that this could turn into a long running thing. There are 86 of these to sift through after all…and counting. If nothing else, this gives you an interesting look into my cinematic tastes. Over the course of he year you can sort of get a feel for what my current favorites are, but now we can look to the past a bit.
Alright, here goes nothing:
Best Picture – Her
The nominees here were 12 Years a Slave, American Hustle, Captain Phillips, Dallas Buyers Club, Gravity, Her, Nebraska, Philomena, and The Wolf of Wall Street. Considering that it was my favorite film of 2013, a vote for Her would be pretty clear and decisive here. The Wolf of Wall Street would be my runner up, but it wouldn't be a close race. Spike Jonze's meditation on love is an absolute masterpiece, so that'd be my pick.
Best Director – Alfonso Cuarón for Gravity
I'd have voted for Jonze here, but he wasn't nominated. The actual nominees were Alfonso Cuarón for Gravity, Steve McQueen for 12 Years a Slave, Alexander Payne for Nebraska, David O. Russell for American Hustle, and Martin Scorsese for The Wolf of Wall Street. I very nearly went with Scorsese here, but it's fairly hard to deny Cuarón's work here on Gravity. The aforementioned Jonze is my personal pick overall, but Cuarón is my choice of the actual nominees.
Best Actor – Leonardo DiCaprio for The Wolf of Wall Street
In a perfect world, I'd have seen Oscar Isaac in the lineup for Inside Llewyn Davis and subsequently he'd be my vote. The actual nominees here though were Christian Bale for American Hustle, Bruce Dern for Nebraska, Leonardo DiCaprio for The Wolf of Wall Street, Chiwetel Ejiofor for 12 Years a Slave, and Matthew McConaughey for Dallas Buyers Club. Everyone is worthy here and I really came close to selecting Dern, but DiCaprio showed an incredible aptitude for comedy and that would be enough for me to give him his first Oscar.
Best Actress – Cate Blanchett for Blue Jasmine

"How to Train Your Dragon 2": What's Up with the Awards Race
Directed by: Dean DeBlois
Written by: Dean DeBlois
Main Cast: Voices of Jay Baruchel, Cate Blanchett, Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Craig Ferguson, Jonah Hill, Djimon Hounsou, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, T.J. Miller, Kristen Wiig, and others
Past Oscar relations: The first film in the franchise was nominated for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Score
Here now we have a brand new article in this series of mine on 2015 contenders hoping to compete for some sort of Oscar attention at the upcoming 2015 ceremony. Next up for us is the sequel How to Train Your Dragon 2, which looks to please audiences as much as the first one did. From there, it's potentially on to Oscar contention!
This is the second film in a now franchise, based on a highly popular series of books. How to Train Your Dragon 2 features a top notch voice cast, with folks such as Jay Baruchel, Cate Blanchett, Gerard Butler, America Ferrera, Craig Ferguson, Jonah Hill, Djimon Hounsou, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, T.J. Miller, Kristen Wiig, and many others lending their talents to the movie. All signs point to this being a big success and a likely player in the Best Animated Feature field. Can it go further though?
What this flick has going in its favor is highly positive reviews and a built in audience that tried to make the last one an awards contender. The early word says that this one is just as good, if not a bit better, than the first How to Train Your Dragon, which is no small achievement. This makes it more or less a surefire nominee in Best Animated Feature and perhaps even the frontrunner right now (give or take how The Lego Movie ages over the course of the rest of the season). Only halfway through the year, that's a a pretty solid spot to be in.
Working against How to Train Your Dragon 2 is the fact that animation has had a tougher time of late. Since the sliding scale in Best Picture has been implemented, no cartoon has gotten into the major categories, so it's possible that the time for that sort of a citation has come and gone. If Frozen couldn't do it last year, one has to think that this year we won't see anything from the animated category particularly break through. It's not impossible, but I wouldn't bet on it happening.
So, can this be a player at all? I'd say […]

It is a fact of some interest that while the special senses of vision and hearing have furnished some of the most striking acquisitions of modern physiology, the sense of smell has been left comparatively unstudied by investigators. The reason for this is not difficult to surmise; its organ has no mechanical peripheral apparatus that can bring its study into the domain of physics, nor do the variations of olfaction also follow physical laws like those of color or tone. The problems of its study fall therefore more into the domain of pure physiologic psychology, and the practical difficulties have been so great that few have attempted their solution. The close associations of the sense of smell with those of taste and general sensation, its easy sophistication and common, and indeed almost universal, impairment among civilized people, have added to the embarrassment and aided to discourage physiologic experimentation in this

Good news for Diane Riehm & RFK Jr.
How strange! How would he manage to discover that he can public-speak despite not being able to normally speak, if he couldn't speak in private? They wouldn't let him on stage to do a speech if a mute.
As posted here: http://dilbertblog.typepad.com/the_dilbert_blog/2006/03/can_you_hear_me.html
He lost the ability to speak normally in a gradual few months.
Wow, this makes me wonder if there's a similiar experience as babies and toddlers GAIN speech.

Restored Scribble May Be Shakespeare's SignatureBreaking News
Researchers using high-tech photography have reconstructed a signature that may belong to William Shakespeare — or perhaps a clever forger.
It's not yet known who scrawled "Wm Shakespeare" across the title page of the legal treatise "Archaionomia," a collection of Saxon laws published during the reign of Elizabeth I of England. It may never be clear, said Gregory Heyworth, a professor of English at the University of Mississippi.
But now, Heyworth and his students have used new technology to reveal the nearly lost scribbles on the old book. The work is part of The Lazarus Project, an effort to revive damaged texts using a technique called multispectral imaging. The researchers take very high-resolution photographs of old text, art or objects using 12 different wavelengths of light, ranging from ultraviolet to infrared, beyond the boundaries of the human eye. Next, they use software to combine these images into the clearest possible picture of the text....

Cordless Blinds, Shades & Window Treatments
- The safest bet in blinds and shades
- Child and pet friendly without cords
- Clean, elegant look without cord clutter
- Gentle push/pull lift from bottom rail
- Simple, convenient operation
Cordless blinds and shades offer a convenient and safe option now available on most styles of window treatments. Instead of a traditional lift cord, the shade is operated with a gentle push or pull on the bottom rail to position the shade at any height. With no dangling cords, shades are safer for children and pets and have a clean, uncluttered look. Simply select the cordless option when customizing your shade and be sure you can reach the window at the maximum height you would raise the shade - if not, consider a motorized window treatment.

My name is Karmen Nizi and I had just recently had unrelated bone marrow transplant. To start off from the very beginning:
I was originally diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in 1991, and being only 16 years old I was terrified. At that age the doctors all considered me as an adult and decided that I could handle the *bad* news all alone. I believe that no one, regardless of their age, could take such news alone! After going through a period of denial and anger, I knew that this was a part of my life that I would have to live with. So with the support from family and friends, I began my two years of chemotherapy and radiation treatment. In August of 1993, I was declared in full remission. You can believe me, that was one of the happiest days of my life. The oncology nurses even gave me a diploma for my achievement.
Unfortunately, in May of 1994, I had to face a relapse. To me it seemed that God was punishing me all over again. I thought that I could never go through another two years of treatment. As a result, that was not an option that I had. The doctors explained to me that my body has been given the maximum dose of chemotherapy that it could take. And for me to stay in another remission without a relapse was very unlikely.
So immediately I became a candidate for a Bone Marrow Transplant. The search for an unrelated donor began, being that my two brothers (siblings; the best possible match) were perfect matches for each and not me. I was very lucky to find a donor as quickly as I did, considering that there is only about a 20% chance to get a perfect unrelated match.
December of 1994 came around rather quickly, and my official date for the transplant was set for December 8,1994. I still remember that night waiting in my room with my parents and brother. Of course the marrow had arrived late, and all I knew about the donor was that the marrow had taken two flights to get to me. You can imagine of all the places we came up with that it might have came from. Oh, by the way, I was in Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto. I am originally from Edmonton, Alberta but moved to Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario in the summer of 1985.
Today I am feeling pretty good, though I still do have some rough days. But look at it this way, "Everyone has a bad day or two ". I guess what I am trying to say is that there is hope at the end of that dark tunnel!
All I am waiting for now, is the day that I can meet that great person who basically gave me a second chance at life. And soon enough that day will come - December 8th will definitely be special!
One little message that I would like to leave to all those BMT patients, "The doctors always said that the day of your transplant is day ONE". So twenty years from now when someone asks how old I am, I'll be telling them the truth that I am only 20 years old! (HA HA)

My terminal somehow turned into some kind of a text editor; I open it up and the window title says "Terminal - Login - 130x33" with no prompt, just a black window with a cursor like any text editor. My understanding of the problem is that the Terminal.app is not running bash when it starts.
I tried deleting the Terminal's preferences file and changing the "shell opens with" setting in the Terminal preferences but nothing works.
Any ideas to fix this?

"Off to my private round of golf with my good philandering friend Tiger Woods on Air Force One. Good luck sucka!"
You wouldn't want Obama to make another one of his "excessive" Executive Orders, would you?
Without any debate, the Senate unanimously passed legislation giving the Department of Transportation flexibility to use unspent funds to cover the costs of air traffic controllers and other essential employees at the Federal Aviation Administration.
The House of Representatives, which is expected to approve the measure, could take it up on Friday, capping a feverish effort by Congress to end the flight delays that were snarling traffic at major U.S. airports and angering travelers.
Excellent post, Radish. I'd just add they did this just before they needed to board their own aircraft prior to their 'break'.
Folks aren't working, infrastructure is graded at a D+ (there is a 3 in 4 chance the bridge you're crossing is safe) and so many other issues urgently demanding attention, but they are going home for a while.
I wonder how many of them will have town hall meetings in order to hear the will of their voters.
Our legislators, for the most part, a kind of awful, and doing an offal job.
C, how can you possibly expect Congress to vote on anything on a Friday when a quorum flies home on Thursday afternoon. I would bet that the vote won't occur on Monday, either, because that's when they're on their way back. I wish I could get paid $174,000 a year for working three days a week.
I liked the "doing an offal job" line. Gots to remember that one.
For once, I have to say I agree with Republican propagandist Lisa Benson.
Funny I don't see any mention of O in your quote.
I agree with the premise. Obama should quit trying to reach out to Republicans, quit trying to compromise for the sake of compromise, and do what is best for the people. The sequester itself is a consequence of Obama trusting Republicans to do the right thing, and then they predictably turn around and lie to him and stab you and me in the back.
The Obamanation is so dumb he thinks no one will notice the selective cuts he makes only to things that will get a rise out of people rather than to all the rubbish, like illegal alien support, voice coaching for transvestites, and sex changes operations for inmates, that government of various levels spend money on that could be cut without anyone caring whatsoever.
It is funny that Veteran's affairs, Dept. of agriculture, etc. are also affected by the sequestration, but you hear nothing about it.cut the budget by 10% but not my travel plans.
But then, to make it law, The King would have to sign it.
good reference.
Also, see http://www.politico.com/story/2013/04/are-dems-blinking-first-on-aviation-cuts-90653.html?hp=t1_3
to learn that Dem. Senate Leader Reid was trying to pass a bill that would revoke ALL CUTS in the increases to federal budgets for more spending, the Democratic Mantra, teamed with Higher Taxes.
The 15,000 furloughs and shutdown of a dozen towers was a democrat plan to anger users of airlines to scream for more spending. The bill passed by unanimous consent will shift funds already in the budget of FAA to "operations" until the New Fiscal 2014 budget begins Oct.1st of this year.
The Democrats in D.C. will do any dirty trick to get their way on spending more and raising more taxes…as if the $16 Trillion Fed. Debt was a fairy tale to be ignored, which is SOP.
Congress had exempted themselves by keeping nearby airfields on normal schedules…and they have a system where they can reserve seats on multiple flights so whenever they reach the airport, a seat will be assured, and other flights will have had a cancellation! Congress and the President live like Kings and Billionaires! Ain't America Great?
Ditto. It past Congresses, reaching across the aisle would produce more results. These days, it just gives Republicans ideas about what else to obstruct.
Smaller government, right where you wanted it!
That's not why his arm is tired.

I'm using a page template in my Bootstrap child theme to display a list of custom posts with an excerpt. Each excerpt has the "continue reading" link on, which I'd like to remove.
Having look in the parent functions.php it tells me to simply remove the two filters (hooking into excerpt_more and get_the_excerpt) to get rid of this.
So, in my child functions.php I have the following;
remove_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'the_bootstrap_custom_excerpt_more' );
remove_filter( 'excerpt_more', 'the_bootstrap_auto_excerpt_more' );
However, the "continue reading" link remains. I have tried adding the priority parameter, using 10, 1, 11 and 20 as values but that made no difference.
Commenting out the add_filter() calls in the parent functions.php appears to be the only way to get the link to go away.
This is one of those "I can't understand why it won't work!" scenarios so I'm guessing the solution is starring me in the face...any help opening my eyes is appreciated!

Nearest Resistance: $55 Nearest Support: $47.50 Catalyst: Earnings, 2013 CapEx Plans Coach ( COH) is another name that beat earnings this morning, but Wall Street is reacting a bit differently. Coach announced solid numbers -- beating earnings estimates by a penny -- but also dropped the bomb that 2013 would be a year filled with capital expenditures as the firm invests heavily in its Asian distributors. That sent Coach down more than 16% as I write. >>5 Volatile Stocks to Buy More Of The fact remains that Coach has been a top flier for the last few years, surprising analysts with its ability to earn a profit in spite of the worst economic conditions in recent memory. While today's selling isn't ideal, support at $47.50 is near enough that shares should be able to catch a bid nearby. Investors looking for a cheaper entry would do well to snatch up shares.

NEW YORK - Men's knees buckle at the mere mention of her name. Their eyes get that wistful, faraway look. They lose the ability to speak words, let alone sentences. And in the end, they're reduced to quivering masses of lovesick Jell-O. They're jonesin'. They're Zeta-Jonesin'. Bad.
Catherine Zeta-Jones, who had the clothes whipped off her body in a sword fight with Antonio Banderas in "Zorro," has emerged as the screen fantasy goddess of the turn of the century.
Her latest movie, "Entrapment," shows off her intense beauty as well as her athleticism. She swims in tight wet suits, writhes, wriggles and high-steps her way through a latticework of security lasers and does a back flip off a beam that would make Nadia Comaneci proud.
But Zeta-Jones hopes her appeal also comes from the humor and spunk she tries infuse in all her roles.
"There're too many pretty girls around," she says. "I hope that the image that comes across is one which is much more of a fun, kind of approachable woman."
That approachability steps down from the screen, reaching women as well as men.
Her smoldering sexuality, flowing chestnut hair and piercing brown eyes captured the attention of critics and moviegoers alike last year in "The Mask of Zorro." But like so many seemingly overnight successes, the 29-year-old actress' breakthrough was years in the making.
Born in Wales to a seamstress-mother and a father who bought into a candy factory, she was singing and dancing by age 4, performing in various local theater productions. She had her first actor's guild card by age 15 and moved to London, where, at 17, she landed the lead in a revival of "42nd Street."
Barely 21, she took a role as the buxom, eldest daughter of a wild family in a series titled "The Darling Buds of May." It became a hit. And her stardom on television meant, as she puts it, she could never again ride the tube (British for subway).
She quickly became a pet subject for the British tabloids. It got so bad that one night seven years ago she drove her car into a lamppost while trying to ditch paparazzi chasing her on motorcycles.
People are surprised to learn that she's Welsh-Irish, because of her exotic looks, her casting as a Spaniard in "Zorro," and her name (she decided to hyphenate her name, using her grandmother's first name, Zeta, and her family name, Jones).
One of the reasons she came to the United States was "to go back to acting as opposed to being a celebrity," she says, recalling that reporters once camped out in front of her house for two weeks straight, taking round-the-clock shifts.
"I broke up with a boyfriend or something and it became top headline news. Ridiculous!" she says.
She concedes that she probably could have handled the situation better, but then, while she had learned how to sing, dance and act, she hadn't attended Celebrity School.
"I really started to suffer in my work, because I was perceived in a way as this 'Tabloid Babe' - there wasn't a day I wasn't in there."
Her career, indeed, sputtered. She appeared in the awful 1992 movie "Christopher Columbus: The Discovery" and the short-lived ABC series "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles."
But then she gained notice in the lead of CBS's Hallmark Hall of Fame production of "Return of the Native" in 1994, and in the title role in the miniseries "Catherine the Great" the following year. In 1996, she appeared in the miniseries "Titanic." And because Steven Spielberg saw her on that sinking ship, her career is sailing now.
Spielberg, a producer of "Zorro," met Zeta-Jones and said, "I really think you would be great in this."
"And he said, 'I'm producing, I'm not directing, and as a director I know it's the director's final choice.' So he put me in touch with ('Zorro' director) Martin Campbell, and then I screen-tested."
Of course, like the old E.F. Hutton commercials, when Spielberg talks ...
Next thing moviegoers knew: Z stood for something more than Zorro.
As Jan de Bont, the director of her upcoming film, "The Haunting," has put it: "You can't stop looking at her while she's on screen. She's one of the few screen wonders who can do that."
Even though she has now scored big back-to-back successes as a self-contained femme fatale, she's not concerned about typecasting. She said she's doing a cameo in a Stephen Frears film with John Cusack. And in this summer's "The Haunting" she plays someone described as "wild, bisexual."
Plus, she already has had experience with pigeonholing. Her old television series was so successful that "it was very difficult for me to jump from being known for that character. I was pigeonholed when I was in musical comedy. You know, go for a straight acting role and it was like, 'Are you out of your mind? Go to the circus, or something.' You know what I mean?"
Since "Entrapment" debuted as the No. 1 box-office attraction last weekend, Zeta-Jones couldn't be happier to have made that transatlantic career move.
"I made a real conscious decision to come to the States, and the fact that it's worked out for me gives me a great sense of relief, because it was a big decision to come and I didn't know if it was going to work out," she says.
"I'm just very lucky. And I always retain that sense of 'How long will this last?' I don't know."

Frostbite (cont.)
Frostbite Medical Treatment
After initial life-threatening problems are excluded or managed, rewarming is the highest priority in medical care.
After rewarming, post-thaw care is undertaken in order to prevent infection and a continuing lack of oxygen to the area.
People with frostbite are hospitalized for at least 1 to 2 days to determine the extent of injury and to receive further treatment.
A number of experimental therapies do exist, many of which aim to further treat the inflammation or decreased blood flow seen in frostbite. As of yet, none of these treatments has proven beneficial.

Her long-time school friend Caitlin Hawthorn was diagnosed
two and a-half years ago with three different types of cancer
- intertwined-pancreatic neuroendocrine cancer, carcinoma and
sarcoma - and she died on February 23 this year.
''She was only 21. That's too young,'' Miss Chamberlain said.
''But she left an important legacy. Every day her death
reminds me to make the most of every opportunity, because you
never know when your number will be up.
''You don't expect cancer to affect you, but when it happens
to someone so close to you ...
''It could easily have been me. It isn't an old person's
disease. It can strike anyone, at any age.''
The experience inspired the 21-year-old University of Otago
fourth-year human nutrition student to take part in the
university's inaugural 2014 Relay for Life, which starts this
Miss Chamberlain, who hails from Whangarei, will be one of
about 1000 people who will run a circuit on the university's
Union Lawn between 8pm tonight and 11am tomorrow.
One of those will be Southern Steel netball mid-courter
Stacey Peeters, who is participating to pay tribute to her
aunt, Jen Peeters, of Tauranga, who was diagnosed with breast
cancer during her pregnancy.
Peeters will also be joined tomorrow morning by Southern
Steel teammates Storm Purvis, Te Paea Selby-Rickit and Gina

chance to pit their skills against the players in challenges,
in exchange for a donation to the Cancer Society.
The overnight team event raises funds for cancer research,
education and support programmes.
Teams of 10 or more participants will complete a relay-style

I am reading the Modern C++ Design by Andrei, where it is mentioned that
"Pointers to allocated objects does not have a value semantics"
For Value semantic example, it is mentioned that 'int' is perfect. so
int x = 200, y;
y = x;
My Question?
1) What is the parameter to be considered so that i can claim that is a 'value semantic'.? 2) Why Pointers to Objects does not claimed to be 'value Semantic'.
what I understood?
If you can not copy the variable to another variable which is totally detacted from the original, then that is the 'value semantics'.
Kindly correct me if my understanding is wrong?, and also provide few simple examples.

Warming up to Mass Migrations
Global warming is not a political issue whose box we can check and move on; it is an intricate web of moral obligations, resource management, development, and an extensive network of once- or twice-removed consequences that are no less important.
For example, in a piece I helped put together with Kit Batten and Nat Gryll (at the Center for American Progress), we look more closely at what global warming means for the immigration debate – it is easily forgotten that the U.S. will not be exempt from global migration pressure as a result of warming.
Our most recent immigration debate has been tricky, but conditions will only worsen as we see an influx in refugees from Caribbean countries suffering from intensified storms, Mexican regions battling severe drought, and economies crushed by natural disasters, conflict, and sea level rise.
In the article posted online, we argue that the U.S. must consider its climate debt to the rest of the world in terms of historical and per capita emissions, which are still higher than any other country. Looking at international consequences and implications will help us strategize policies that will alleviate future border pressure and conflict.
Thus far the U.S. has had little or no foresight about how global warming will shape the future — and that's simply not acceptable anymore.
One Response to Warming up to Mass Migrations
Conservatives who are against immigration would do well to consider Global warming. GW induced refuge streams have already started. Darfur is one, and migrations at the edge of the Gobi is another. It's just a matter of time, as you analysis points out before it begins in earnest in our hemisphere.

See which Vikings rock Twitter hardest
The NFL doesn't allow its players to use Twitter from the sidelines, but that doesn't stop some Minnesota Vikings from having a lot to say in 140 characters or less when games and practices are over.
And here's what we wanted to know: Which Vikings rock Twitter the hardest?
There are some simple ways to rank them: Count their followers, and count their tweets. But we also used Twitalyzer to gauge which players have the most impact, and what kind of influence they have on the Twitter field.
Twitalyzer measures impact by combining a user's followers and tweets, as well as how frequently the user is re-tweeted and re-tweets others, and how often the user is referenced. Then it offers a score and a percentile ranking. We're interested in the percentiles.
For example, Greg Lewis has an impact ranking in the 74.2nd percentile. That means he has a higher impact than 74.2 percent of all Twitter users being tracked.
Twitalyzer also identifies three kinds of influencers, but makes no judgment calls about whether one kind is better than another. There are "sources," who have smaller networks and originate ideas. "Spiders" have mid-sized networks and are socially connected. And "suns" have large networks of first-level connections.
Bryant McKinney, for example, is classified as a "spider."
We found 20 Vikes with pubic Twitter accounts -- Brett Favre is not among them -- and put them to the test. Here's what we found out, as of Saturday before the pre-season win over Seattle. Note: Twitalyzer doesn't rank a user if they haven't tweeted in the past seven days.
- Most Followers: Jared Allen, 41,392
- Least Followers: Adrian Battles, 269
- Most Tweets: Bryant McKinney, 22,837
- Least Tweets: E.J. Henderson, 18
- Highest Impact: Bernard Berrian, 97.6th percentile
- Lowest Impact: Chris Kluwe and Adrian Battles (tie), 46.7th percentile

Deeplinks Blog posts about NSA Spying
While many federal employees and the American public have been negatively affected by the US government shutdown, there is one group of people who can probably take solace: those who need to be held to account for the NSA surveillance scandal.
Before the shutdown, there were two allegedly "independent" investigations into NSA spying activities taking place—one through the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and one through the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board (PCLOB). We have heavily criticized these committees for their close ties to the White House and DNI, the same bodies in charge of the NSA, but certainly some investigation is better than nothing.
EFF Submits Comments to 'Independent' Office of the Director of National Intelligence's Review Group
There's an eerie similarity between the National Security Agency spying uncovered in the 1970s, which included the intelligence community spying on political activists and the NSA's collection of every single international telegram being sent from the United States, and the NSA spying today. Back then, after journalists reported on the illegal actions of the NSA, President Gerald Ford appointed Vice President Nelson Rockefeller to spearhead a commission to look into the allegations of illegal actions by the intelligence community.
A group of prominent technologists submitted a letter today to the NSA Review Group, a body charged with conducting a review of NSA activities that does not currently have a technologist as a member. The letter urges the Review Group to seek assistance from independent technologists in order to conduct a thorough review, and that NSA oversight more broadly requires greater transparency with respect to the technical mechanisms used to conduct surveillance.
The National Security Agency (NSA) has finally admitted to tracking the cell phone location of Americans. For two years, in 2010 and 2011, the spy agency ran an "experiment" pilot project in which they wanted to test how location information would flow into their massive databases containing other information on Americans.
As the New York Times reported on Wednesday, "it was unclear how many Americans' locational data was collected as part of the project, whether the agency has held on to that information or why the program did not go forward."
What's clear to us is this was a massive invasion of privacy.
"Computers are everywhere. They are now something we put our whole bodies into—airplanes, cars—and something we put into our bodies—pacemakers, cochlear implants. They HAVE to be trustworthy."
–EFF Fellow Cory Doctorow

Richard McKenna
|This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (August 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Richard Milton McKenna (May 9, 1913 – November 1, 1964) was an American sailor and fiction writer.
Early life[edit]
McKenna was born in Mountain Home, Idaho, on May 9, 1913.
Seeking more opportunities than could be found in such a rural part of the country at the height of the Great Depression, McKenna joined the U.S. Navy in 1931. He served for 22 years, including 10 years of active sea duty. He served in both World War II and the Korean War, and retired shortly afterwards as a Chief Machinist's Mate.
Because of the benefits of the GI Bill, McKenna was able to attend college at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where he studied creative writing. He also married a librarian, Eva, whom he met at the college.
Writing career[edit]
McKenna began his writing career publishing science fiction. "He had enormous talent," writes his colleague Ben Bova in the book Notes to a Science Fiction Writer. His first science fiction story Casey Agonistes immediately established him as a writer to be watched.
McKenna's best known work was The Sand Pebbles (1962), made into the well-known 1966 film of the same title. The protagonist was an enlisted career sailor on a U.S. Navy river gunboat named the San Pablo in China during the 1920s. McKenna himself served aboard a river gunboat on the Yangtze Patrol, but about ten years following the events in his novel and of more modern construction (San Pablo was an ancient gunboat seized from the Spanish in 1898). The Sand Pebbles won the $10,000 1963 Harper Prize Novel and was chosen as a Book-of-the-Month Club selection.
McKenna's posthumously published short story "The Secret Place" won the Nebula Award for Best Short Story in 1966 and was nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Short Story in 1967. Casey Agonistes and Other Science Fiction and Fantasy Stories (1973) collects the title story and four other short works: "Hunter Come Home", "The Secret Place", "Mine Own Ways", and "Fiddler's Green". The collections The Sons of Martha and The Left Handed Monkey Wrench were also published posthumously.
McKenna suffered a heart attack and died[where?] on November 1, 1964, at age 51.

Sitting quietly in one of London's most sort after property locations, Highgate Village, this sleepy little shed is currently on the market for a whooping £260,000! From first glances the outside is nothing special, flat-roofed and brick, a typical outhouse you would think? Well if you open the door you'll find a 250 sq ft property that contains a plush shower, kitchenette, skylights and wall to wall wooden floor.
Still not worth £260,000? Well add on top of this the potential of schmoozing with Jude Law and Kate Moss, who have both recently brought properties in the area. Funny enough the experts themselves are divided on whether or not it is good value. Described by estate agents as an unusual property it is still almost 10 times the average London salary, which is just over £27,000. Furthermore, if this article catches your eye as more as a sale advert then I will just say who every decides to purchase this 'supershed' will only be able to spend a few nights a week sleeping there due to the restrictions on the building.
Fortunately the estate agents have has a few artists interested in using it as a studio, or the other option is that it is a perfect crash pad for someone who is only in London a few nights a week. A director of property website Zoopla, Nicholas Leeming, has been quoted saying: 'The question is whether anyone is willing to overlook the limitations of a property like this for the sake of a prime location.'
So £260,000 for a shed, what could you get for that price in the surround area? A few miles further east, situated close to the Olympic Park, you can purchase a house for around the same amount. In Halstead, Essex, there is a penthouse in a church that is going for a similar value and comes complete with stain-glass windows. Finally a cottage near Kingsbridge in Devon is on the market for this value, and it even comes with a barn almost as big as this supershed.
It certainly puts it into context when you can purchase a cheap garden shed from Waltons at 1000 times under that price that you can be in whenever you like.

Morning all,
Looks a fair assessment Mike. In the top half by Xmas sounds great to me considering.
I do think we will beat Newcastle though! Isn't it great that we are now discussing who we will beat rather than what is wrong at the club and how we can avoid a relegation battle!

Apologies for not responding but I posted my last response while you were posting your one.
I agree with Berlin, that the future is looking decidedly better now Harry's in charge.
I just hope that Harry does not win the Manager of the Month award for November - although he would deserve it ... because that normally signals a downturn in fortune... lol!

It's one thing to strike a Heisman literally pose while you're toting a Nerf football in the backyard. It's quite another to do it in an actual game … against Notre Dame, no less. Here's Michigan's Denard Robinson making his case for the Heisman on Saturday in the most artistic way possible. Although his stats don't hurt, either; 502 yards total offense, Big Ten rushing record for quarterbacks with 258 yards on 28 carries, including an 87-yard TD run in the second quarter. Michigan won, 28-24.

Music fans are mourning the death of Chrissy Amphlett, lead singer of Australian rock band The Divinyls, who died at her home in New York on Sunday after a long battle with breast cancer and multiple sclerosis.
Amphlett, who was recently named one of Australia's top 10 singers of all time, was 53.
"Christine Joy Amphlett succumbed to the effects of breast cancer and multiple sclerosis, diseases she vigorously fought with exceptional bravery and dignity," her American musician husband and former Divinyls drummer Charley Drayton said in a statement.
"Chrissy's light burns so very brightly. Hers was a life of passion and creativity. She always lived it to the fullest. With her force of character and vocal strength, she paved the way for strong, sexy, outspoken women."
Amphlett revealed in 2010 that she had breast cancer and had been battling M.S.
"I'll get over it," she said. "I've got songs to sing, I've got stages to perform on. I'm a keep-on-going sort of girl.''
The Divinyls had four top 10 albums in Australia and one in the United States. Their biggest hit was "I Touch Myself," released in 1991. The band split in 1997, regrouped for a tour in 2007 and then parted ways again in 2009.
Tributes poured in for the feisty singer described by fans as a "trailblazer" and "electric frontwoman," who wowed audiences with her torn fishnet stockings, schoolgirl outfits and edgy performances.
"Chrissy was just such a wonderful person and so, so talented. It's incredibly sad news," said Australian music critic Ian "Molly" Meldrum.
"She broke ground for women in Australian music, she was amazing and fearless."
Actor Russell Crowe, who played Amphlett's son in the Australian production of the musical "Blood Brothers" in 1988 posted a farewell message to the singer on Twitter.
Dear Chrissie, The last time I saw you was in the Botanic Gardens, loving life and reciting verse. That's how I'll remember you, your boy, R
— Russell Crowe (@russellcrowe) April 22, 2013

Nickels v. Bush: Update from Chicago
Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels will be introducing his Climate Protection resolutionwhich calls for defying President Bush's thumbs-down on the Kyoto Protocols by implementing the guidelines at the local levelon Saturday in the Environment Committee at the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Chicago at 12:30 our time. The mayor's team did a vote count this morning and realized they had a better chance of getting Nickels's resolution through the Environment committee than through the Energy Committee, which is chaired by Red city Mayor Bob Young of Augusta, Georgia, and where the vote count looked pretty bad. (The Environment Committee is also chaired by a Red city mayor, Patrick McCrory of Charlotte, NC, but the mayor's team has been lining up more votes there according to a Nickels staffer who's in Chicago.)
Meanwhile, the high-profile rising Democratic Party star, Mayor Martin O'Malley of Baltimore, pledged to get Nickels's back if the resolution makes it to a floor vote. I'll keep you posted on Nickels's affront to Bush.

as we get many separate inquiries concerning the licensing of our Likno AllWebMenus WordPress menu plugin, please allow me to clarify this here.
Our WordPress menu plugin is currently offered for unlimited domains (websites). It used to have a per-domain licensing, but this is now changed and it is for unlimited websites (WordPress or not), provided that you own 1 license of AllWebMenus Pro.
The current "Unlimited API domains" license means that you can create database-driven/programmable menus, or advanced WordPress menus, Joomla menus, Drupal menus etc. for as many websites as you wish, without any constraints on domains, submenu levels, behavior, design or content.
Our latest plugin version (1.0.20) also supports the new WordPress 3+ feature of "Menus".
You can use the "menu structure" of your own WordPress "Menus" (version 3+ only) on AllWebMenus themes automatically (dynamically) and show nice-looking menus on your blogs.
If you have further inquiries about the plugin's licensing or its functionality, please post them here so that other WordPress users can also get access to these clarifications.
Thank you!
