When an actor of Pankaj Kapur's caliber takes on the reins of director, you would at least be curious to see what he comes up with. With Mausam, Kapur brings together his son Shahid Kapur and Sonam Kapoor together for the first time in what is being promoted as "a love story for all seasons." This is no original claim from a mainstream Hindi film, but I guess we can let that go. Based on the trailer, the film looks like a romantic saga with a military backdrop. Again, nothing amazingly novel there. While we'll have to wait to see the Pankaj Kapur touch on this film, the soundtrack is already available for sampling. Composed by Pritam and lyrics by Irshad Kamil, the album bears a mature and rustic feel throughout. It has an intriguing lineup of singers and maintains Pritam's trademark peppy style but also feels a bit different from his usual fare.
The album starts with the obligatory mushy romantic ballad that a film of this genre must have. Rabba Main Toh Mar Gaya Oye, crooned by Shahid Mallya, is tinged with Punjabi lyrics and a rustic tune. Mallya delivers what is required from such a song - innocence, emotion and sincerity. Even though it isn't a wildly original love song, it works for the most part. The only off-putting element is the auto-tuned echo of Mallya's voice in the chorus. For a song meant to ground you to the simplicities of a small-town love story, auto-tuned voices shatter the illusion completely.
The same song - Rabba Main Toh Mar Gaya Oye - returns later in the album, but this time sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. It remains loyal to the original version with the exception of Khan's trademark vocals.
The next track epitomizes a Pritam wedding number. Sajh Dhaj Ke, by Mika Sing and Pankaj Kapur, reminds of 'Nagada Nagada' from another Pritam album, Jab We Met. It's a fun number and will likely become popular at weddings. The first of the remixes - the Desi Mix Tiger Style - adds more dhol and other percussion to make it a faster dance track. The second remix, however - Club Mix Tiger Style - falls flat. Pairing a song designed for a rural Punjabi wedding situation with a club tune creates a rather unpleasant mix. The tune seems forced and the lyrics just don't gel with the kind of musical backing they are given here.
Ik Tu Hi Tu Hi marks the return of Hans Raj Hans from a hiatus of sorts. It's a song about heartbreak and Hans brings in his seasoned sufi touch. The chanting chorus has a subtle yet entrancing quality to it that makes you want to listen again. Or you could just wait for the two other versions of the same song to return. The Reprise is handed to Shahid Mallya who uses his smoother and melodious voice to give the song a whole different feel. Being loyal to the conventions of a reprise, the pacing is slower, more relaxed but the chorus holds true. The third take of the song is arguably the best of the lot. This time, the Wadali Brothers take to the mic in the Mehfil Mix and they bring their stellar voices and passion to make the song a whole lot different. They even take over the chorus and, accompanied with a more percussion-based fusion tune, this version of the song shines.
Pankaj Kapur's classical allegiances become even more apparent with Poore Se Zara Sa Kam Hain. Crooned passionately by Rashid Khan, the song speaks about the feeling of incompleteness without a loved one. The music is intense and accompanies the solemn vocals with a great arrangement of traditional blended with western instrumentation. It's short and well done.
Karsan Das Sagathia gives his contribution with Aag Lage Us Aag Ko, a fast-paced Gujarati folk-based song colored with sorrow. In true Pankaj Kapur style, it's not your typical jolly folk song but intense and heartfelt about a lover who can't forget his loved one.
With the last track of the album, Pritam slips into his most typical and expected dance track routine. Mallo Malli, by Tochi Raina, is designed as a club track from the outset. The Second Version adds Lehmber Hussainpuri and Hard Kaur, a vocal collaboration that actually works better because of the distinctly opposite sounds both singers bring to the table. The Remix track is a rehash of Tochi Raina's original and is overdone, with auto-tuning and synthesizing taking over.
After a long while, Pritam delivers a genuinely honest album that paints a unique musical impression of an upcoming film. Pankaj Kapur's influence is evident throughout the album with the sufi and classically inflected songs and the accomplished lineup of raspy-voiced singers. Overall, a solid album that should catch on.

Pastor responds to failing to tip, citing God
A Texas pastor has spoken out after she was lambasted on the Internet for supposedly failing to leave a server a tip and instead leaving a condescending message.
According to MSNBC, the customer, who identified herself as a pastor, wrote "I give God 10%, Why do you get 18?" as well as putting a zero in the tip space.
The customer was supposedly part of a party of 20 people — something she denies — that split the check in an attempt to avoid paying the 18 percent gratuity fee, regardless of the fact that the same person payed all of the tabs.
She took her message to the airwaves and said she actually left a second cash tip and is using the viral nature of the story to spread the gospel.

Change is good for Blake
The line often heard from players who get traded is that a change of scenery can be good.
Toronto is a hockey mecca, of course, but for Jason Blake a change of scenery means moving on to a team that has a fighting chance at the postseason.
The veteran left wing spoke about joining a team still in contention for the playoffs in a conference call Friday shortly after the trade was announced that sent Blake and teammate Vesa Toskala to the Ducks for goaltender Jean-Sebastien Giguere.
"This season in Toronto has been very disappointing," Blake said. "As players and as an organization your whole goal is to win the Stanley Cup. But in order to win it, you've got (to) make the playoffs. So in that respect, it's been a disappointing year. We've got great players in the room and we haven't found a way to play as a team game in and game out. Now that this trade has been made, I'm very excited. It's a great opportunity to move forward."
It's not clear how the Ducks will use another forward, with Teemu Selanne and Joffrey Lupul to return at some point this season and rookies Dan Sexton and Matt Beleskey ably filling in for injured parts.
Blake doesn't know how he'll fit in, but he is familiar with the Ducks' organization and makeup.
"It's a great team and they've got phenomenal players, one of the best to ever play the game in Scott Niedermayer," Blake said. "As of yesterday I was on a team that was not in the playoff chase. And to go to a team that's only a few points out, hopefully we can put together quite a few wins."
He talked about being a gritty player and doing the dirty work in front of the net and in the corners, a characteristic that served the Ducks well in seasons past.

Now we're not suggesting that X Factor's MK1 are bad losers or anything but the 'dubstep duo' (their words) who were eliminated from the competition this weekend have not only laid into judges Gary Barlow and Nicole Scherzinger but also reckon there was a problem with their voting phone line.
After being placed in the bottom two on Sunday's show, the pair were in a sing off with Kye Sones but didn't feel they got all of the judges' full attention - or a fair shot at staying in the competition.
Look! Over there! It's Gary and Nicole!
Charlie told The Sun: "[Gary and Nicole] were whispering to each other and I thought, 'I'm trying to sing for my place and they were chatting.' That's just rude."
And in an interview with Digital Spy, Si Dixon of the band claimed fans had complained that they couldn't get through to vote because of a fault with the voting line.
"The MK1 line was frozen," he said. "I think that's one factor that affected us on the day with the votes.
But an 'X Factor' spokesperson denied the claims, telling The Sun: "The phone lines have been checked and there were no issues."
And Charlie and Si weren't too complimentary about Scouse hopeful Christopher Maloney either.
Christopher Maloney laughs off MK1's claims he's a diva, before popping to the 99p shop to buy them a leaving pressie
"Chris surviving was a bit of a shocker. He got really lucky. He is the biggest diva," Si said.
And Charlie added: "If there's not a drink around or he doesn't get his food on time or go home in the right taxi, then it's a bit of a nightmare.
"The simple things that shouldn't matter, matter to him."

All Product Details
This highly useful textbook presents comprehensive intermediate-level coverage of nearly all major topics of elastic wave propagation in solids. The subjects range from the elementary theory of waves and vibrations in strings to the three-dimensional theory of waves in thick plates. The book is designed not only for a wide audience of engineering students, but also as a general reference for workers in vibrations and acoustics.
Chapters 1-4 cover wave motion in the simple structural shapes, namely strings, longitudinal rod motion, beams and membranes, plates and (cylindrical) shells. Chapters 5-8 deal with wave propagation as governed by the three-dimensional equations of elasticity and cover waves in infinite media, waves in half-space, scattering and diffraction, and waves in thick rods, plates, and shells.
To make the book as self-contained as possible, three appendices offer introductory material on elasticity equations, integral transforms and experimental methods in stress waves. In addition, the author has presented fairly complete development of a number of topics in the mechanics and mathematics of the subject, such as simple transform solutions, orthogonality conditions, approximate theories of plates and asymptotic methods.
Throughout, emphasis has been placed on showing results, drawn from both theoretical and experimental studies, as well as theoretical development of the subject. Moreover, there are over 100 problems distributed throughout the text to help students grasp the material. The result is an excellent resource for both undergraduate and graduate courses and an authoritative reference and review for research workers and professionals.

Larry Fitzgerald dropped one pass in 150 targets last season, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
It's news, even in practice, when a football touches Fitzgerald's hands on its way to the ground.
Kent Somers of the Arizona Republic said it happened Tuesday as the Cardinals opened their three-day mandatory camp. Fitzgerald also made a spectacular grab, but the drop stood out. Somers: "Quarterback Kevin Kolb hit Fitzgerald in stride, and the ball just bounced off his hands. Fitzgerald was not happy. He picked up the ball and punted it into the oleanders that border the Eastern edge of the practice field. I'm not sure if it cleared the oleanders and landed near the railroad tracks, but I doubt it. Still, it was a pretty nice kick."
Also from Somers: Sure, Vonnie Holliday is up there in years by NFL standards, but he's not that old -- unless you're as young as Michael Floyd, the Cardinals' 22-year-old first-round draft choice.
Darren Urban of azcardinals.com says the team had full attendance Tuesday except for defensive lineman Nick Eason, who was excused for personal reasons.
Also from Urban: Enthusiasm runs high. Linebacker Paris Lenon: "That's always something you have to be concerned with young guys, because everything is such a whirlwind. There is so much information thrown at them at one time, and they are looking for that light at the end of the tunnel. But if you have enough guys doing it the right way, everyone will fall in."
Clare Farnsworth of seahawks.com offers notes from the team's first mandatory minicamp practice. Turns out receiver Antonio Bryant wasn't the only player attending on a tryout basis. Farnsworth: "Also in for a tryout is former Texans wide receiver David Anderson, a seventh-round draft choice in 2006 who was released during the season last year and signed with the Redskins. The 5-10, 193-pound Anderson has caught 88 passes for 965 yards in seven NFL seasons. The tryout list also includes tight end Cooper Helfet, who was the rookie minicamp last month; and linebackers Brian Banks and Kyle Knox. Banks who had a tryout last Thursday was working out for the Chiefs today but is scheduled to join the Seahawks' minicamp [Wednesday]."
Also via Farnsworth: a fantastic quote from tight end Kellen Winslow, who was asked about his potential impact on the offense once healthy. Winslow: "If I was healthy, which I never will be again, I would be Aaron Hernandez and (Jason) Witten together."
Danny O'Neil of the Seattle Times says the Seahawks were a bit surprised, but not shocked to see Chris Clemons skip minicamp. Coach Pete Carroll: "He's done a very good job for us in the first couple of years. We're real pleased with his play and his work habits and everything. I'm a little bit surprised we're not able to get further than we are, but we'll see what happens."
Eric Williams of the Tacoma News Tribune says Carroll had high praise for the job Tarvaris Jackson did as the starter in practice Tuesday. Noted: The praise Carroll delivers encourages competition, which could, in theory, bring out the best in the team's new quarterbacks, notably Matt Flynn.
Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch answers Rams-related questions during his latest chat, including one about second-year defensive end Robert Quinn. Thomas: "The big question is run defense. Can he hold up -- and hold the edge -- play in, play out at 260-265? He played about half the snaps on defense last season, and to me showed promise as a pass rusher."
Steve Korte of bnd.com says Rams running back Steven Jackson has challenged rookie receiver Brian Quick to become an impact player right away. Jackson: "Over the next six weeks, he's going to have to work really to prepare for a long season because we are going to lean heavily on him. He's a high draft pick, and we're going to need someone on the outside to make plays. I'm challenging him right now to use these next six weeks to prepare himself to be a standout on this team."
Nick Wagoner of stlouisrams.com checks in with Rams rookie receiver Chris Givens, the first player chosen in the fourth round. Givens: "Just the velocity in which the ball comes to you, that's the biggest difference. Each quarterback has a strong arm and whether it's a deep ball or a hitch route, the ball gets on you pretty fast."
Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee offers thoughts on the 49ers' quarterbacks, noting that Josh Johnson has fared well recently. Barrows on the two-minute drill: "Johnson had the prettiest drive of the three. It lasted 11 plays and included a nice, over-the-middle pass to the goal-line to receiver Joe Hastings. A few plays later -- with 2.2 seconds left on the clock -- Johnson hit Hastings again on an out route in the end zone in [front] of safety Michael Thomas."
Also from Barrows: how Alex Smith is altering his approach. Barrows on habits Smith developed following shoulder trauma: "Smith compensated for weaknesses in the shoulder, and in doing so his mechanics changed slightly. House gave Smith an exercise regimen to get him back to his pre-injury form. That regimen ranges from very specific exercises designed to strengthen small muscles, especially in the back of the shoulder, to broad concepts like eliminating bench press from his routine. Smith admits he never used to warm up his shoulder before practice. Now he goes through what he described as an 'intense' warm up."
Taylor Price of 49ers.com offers highlights from practice. Price: "[Carlos] Rogers found himself being tested early in one-on-one drills against the 49ers receiving corps. Matched up against last year's leading wideout Michael Crabtree, Rogers was beaten slightly down the field on a 35-yard pass from second-year signal caller Colin Kaepernick. Crabtree beat the Pro Bowl cornerback by just a step to make the impressive deep catch."
Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle says 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman was particularly excited about Moss and guard Alex Boone.

6 Moving Celebrity Commercials for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has been helping kids fight cancer since 1962, all thanks to contributions that let families get treated for free.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has been helping kids fight cancer since 1962, all thanks to contributions that let families get treated for free.
Here's a scary reminder about the importance of keeping an eye on little kids because you have no idea what they'll put in their mouths.
It comes around every year, and yet every year you wonder what kind of date you should take your sweetheart on for Valentine's Day.
It's hard to believe it's already the middle of tax season. 2013 is off to a fast clip, and unfortunately this means that Tax Day is right around the corner. You could bury your head in the sand until you hit April 14 panic mode, or this year you could give yourself a burst of energy and self-confidence knowing that you met your taxes head-on. Here are money savers to get you started:
For a holiday all about the heart, Valentine's Day sure wreaks a lot of havoc on it.
All mothers love their sons, but some are more affectionate than others.
Every year we try to talk ourselves out of caring about Valentine's Day and every year we give in to the fun of celebrating love. Or, specifically not celebrating love, if that's your thing. Either way, even if it's become way too commercialized, we always pay attention to society's day of love.
This year, instead of complaining about the prices of roses and chocolates, entertain your valentine with some of the stories that make Valentine's Day more than just a day of obligatory affections.
Australia has decided to blow out the candles on a birthday tradition.
A 9-year-old girl recently gave birth to a girl in Mexico last month and now the authorities want to find the father.
This is un-boo-lieveable.
A new study has found that an astonishing number of people believe in ghosts.
Congratulations to Jim Reinhard! He's the winner of our trip to San Antonio to see the grand finale of the "Cowboy Rides Away" farewell tour with George Strait.
Valentine's Day may be in the air, but it seems like there isn't a ton of love for Facebook

Gov. Rick Perry is still drawing a barrage of criticism for signing on executive order almost two weeks ago forcing Texan parents to vaccinate their adolescent daughters against the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus.
Perry rationalized, according to the Houston Chronicle, "If the medical community developed a vaccine for lung cancer, would the same critics oppose it, claiming it would encourage smoking?"
I have considered that analogy myself. It is perfect. Lung cancer is predominantly caused by a destructive behavior, cigarette smoking, which also causes a myriad of other health problems.
So to answer Perry's question, everyone would welcome a lung cancer vaccine, but wouldn't turn around and say, "Great, let's all smoke!" Because we know smoking causes other cancers like laryngeal, esophageal, stomach and pancreatic as well as health problems like heart disease and infertility.
Furthermore, this behavior endangers the health of other people who come in contact with the smoker, like babies born with low birth weight.
Interestingly, the most ardent critics of smoking are lawmakers, who have increasingly sought to discourage this destructive behavior by making it more difficult.
HPV is also the consequence of a destructive behavior, sex outside of marriage…..

This story is part of The Globe and Mail's Wealth Paradox series, a two-week examination into how the income divide is shaping Canada.
Twenty-five years ago, a new word captured the middle-class angst of an era. That word – "McJobs" – was inspired by the employment offered at a certain fast-food behemoth and evoked a future in which low-paying service jobs dominated a rusted-out North America.
Back-to-back recessions and surging competition from an Asian juggernaut (back then it was Japan) had devastated manufacturing across this continent. In 1987, a bombshell U.S. study found that almost 60 per cent of American jobs created earlier that decade were low-wage positions in the service sector.
Talk of wage polarization, precarious employment and middle-class decline was rampant. Could an economy led by the service sector, rather than manufacturing, sustain middle-class lifestyles? Ottawa commissioned studies on the topic, but their hopeful conclusions did little to stop the foreboding.
Meanwhile, as North American factories closed, the continent's stock markets boomed. Wall Street went on a tear, sparking an eponymous Hollywood blockbuster whose "greed is good" ethos epitomized the attitude of a new class of mega-millionaires who earned, rather than inherited, their fortunes.
The best of times for the 1 per cent seemed like the worst of times for the other 99.
"In a sharp reversal of the equalizing trend that had been under way since shortly after World War II, the extremes of wealth have grown further apart and the middle has lost ground," Barbara Ehrenreich wrote in a 1986 New York Times Magazine article titled Is the Middle Class Doomed? "Some economists have even predicted that the middle class … will disappear altogether."
One influential economist told Ms. Ehrenreich: "It's incontestable that as a service economy we won't be able sustain the level of growth required to maintain our standard of living."
That assertion seemed as overwrought then as it does now. Though we were already deep into the information age – I bought my first personal computer in 1987, a Tandy 1000 with 256 kilobytes of memory – the cognoscenti still did not believe the service sector could ever create good jobs on a massive scale. Yet, in less than a decade, the Internet was doing just that.
Entire new job categories sprung up, post-manufacturing service jobs more akin to the work of lawyers or journalists than those manning fast-food cash registers. These allowed twentysomethings to become coders and webmasters, and out-earn their middle-class parents. In the decade before the 2008 financial crash, almost 20 per cent of Canadian manufacturing jobs disappeared, yet the median after-tax income of Canadian families increased in real terms by 18 per cent. Resources played a part in that. But the service sector was the main driver.
Since the recession, however, eighties-style hand-wringing is back in fashion. A global rise in income disparity, twinned with fears that robots are poised to replace millions of mid-level workers, has spawned gloomy predictions about what's in store for the middle class. Experience should have taught us to guard against making such sweeping prognostications. While some innovations might destroy jobs, other as-yet-unknown technologies are just as likely to create even better ones. It has happened before – repeatedly.
To be sure, economic transitions are never entirely fair or painless. Globalization has deprived governments, businesses and workers of the near absolute control they once exerted over domestic economies. It has also enabled a lucky few to earn eye-popping (if not unseemly) incomes with the emergence of a global market for top talent. Combined with currently slow-growing salaries for the rest, the distribution of income has become more unequal in most developed countries. Restoring balance won't be easy, as an aging population depresses consumption and economic growth, while emerging economies seek to move up the food chain by eating our lunch. But before we try to roll back the clock, as so many seem eager to do, we need to understand why we face these challenges in the first place, and why rising to them will make us all better off.
The middle-class myth
Fifty years ago, Canada's self-image as a middle-class nation was more illusion than reality. In 1961, fewer than 15 per cent of Canadian households owned an automatic washer and only 6 per cent had two cars. In The Vertical Mosaic, his groundbreaking 1965 study of class divisions in this country, sociologist John Porter wrote that "Canada is still a long way from the generalized middle-classness of the popular image." Indeed, the Canada of the early 1960s was a highly stratified society with limited social mobility; a place where "the top 1 per cent of income recipients received 40 per cent of all income from dividends."Report Typo/Error

Skip to comments.Justice John Roberts had seizure
Posted on 07/30/2007 2:48:44 PM PDT by GOP_Proud
Just heard it on John Gibson's Big Story. I hope I'm wrong but that's how I heard it.
Well, if true, that would suck. I sincerely hope that you misheard it, or that the source was incorrect.
Daily Kos celebrates.
Sure hope he just tripped or something relatively simple. A seizure would be a Bad Thing.
Seizures are not uncommon after even mild head injuries.
Could be okay, just a scare.
Prayers for Roberts!!
Roberts apparently suffered a seizure in 1993. Perhaps they were referring to that one.
It is true, pray for Roberts. This could be catastrophic for the country
Nothing more than a comment by John Gibson. Maybe I heard wrong. So sorry if I did.Then why are you even posting it here?
A family friend is on his security detail. Wonder if I can get some info.
I seriously hope that was the one he was referring to.
Certain medications can trigger seizures in normal individuals. Ciproflaxin, an antibiotic, has a nasty side effect of causing seizures.
He had one a few years ago - it's probably nothing... stress related is my guess.
If he heard it, why is it irrisponsible to post it?
Dear God! I pray that he is okay.
My father in law had a seizure in December. It turned out to be an incurable brain tumor. He is still with us, but it isn't pretty.
How so...?
Is that common? I would have guessed epilepsy...
Justice Roberts could lose 75% of his brain's function, and STILL be a better man than anyone a leftist would nominate...
I vote on keeping him in place - REGARDLESS of his injury.
Think positive..he could have fallen then gotten a head injury and then a seizure.... very common.
Agreed LP.
Many are looking for updates. Gibson mentioned it was being reported locally.
Prayers going up!
Because he doesn't have the facts, it was something mentioned in editorial commentary, and he's not even sure what he heard.
There is no current news report reflecting such a rumor.
Sorry to offend you. I was pretty certain that he said that the justice had a seizure, but I had just turned the TV on. I had heard about the fall he took on the radio on the way home. It seemed to fit at the time. The only reason I became unsure was that there was no follow-up.
If I am wrong I will accept your wrath with a smile because to be wrong on this issue would feel really good.
Justice Bernie...weekend at the Supreme Court.
It's easy to overheat and fall down.
Even young soldiers in formations on 100 degree afternoons can fall over backwards and as they fall they see the sky apparantly dragging itself to the ground, and then their heads bang the ground and they wake up in the aid tent.
Yup, happens all the time.
Heat stroke?
Global Warming?
Bush's fault!
Also: Certain Decisions can trigger seizures
< / Kelo>
Prayers for Chief Justice Roberts.
I heard Gibson saying it was being reported locally.
Posting the thread could bring credence to the story from local Freepers, or they could refute it.
He is just bringing the story to light.
Because you don't create an alarmist headline based on unsubstantiated gossip. He could have mentioned it in an ongoing discussion about the Chief Justice, instead of creating a panic based on likely misinformation.
I'm hardly an expert but I had a family member that would seizure if they got dehydrated.
They had zillions of tests and everything came up fine, the doctor just said it was congential, no big deal and simply not let them get dehydrated.
He further said that while they looked scary as all get out if and of themselves they weren't dangerous unless you fell or were driving a car.
Janet Reno had Parkinson's and it didn't stop her from invading private citizen's homes.
News is now reporting they don't know if the fall caused the seizure or the seizure caused the fall but all are reporting grand mal...
So irresponsible is reporting no seizure at all, when freepers usually hear and or get info before media reports anything.....
WASHINGTON (AP) - Chief Justice John Roberts was taken by ambulance to a hospital on Monday after a fall on a dock near his summer home in Maine.
Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said she did not know how he fell or what injuries he might have suffered. She said he was taken to the hospital as a precaution.
Roberts, 52, bought a home last year in Port Clyde on Maine's Hupper Island. Port Clyde, which is part of the town of St. George, is about 90 miles by car northeast of Portland, midway up the coast of Maine.
The incident occurred around 2 p.m. EDT, said St. George Fire Chief Tim Polky. Roberts was taken by private boat to the mainland and then transferred to an ambulance, Polky said.
"He was conscious and alert when they put him in the rescue (vehicle) and took him to Penobscot Bay Medical Center," Polky said. A spokesman at the Rockport hospital did not immediately return a call from The Associated Press.
Named to the court by President Bush in 2005, Roberts is the youngest justice on a court in which the senior member, John Paul Stevens, is 87. Bush was informed of the hospitalization by his chief of staff, Josh Bolten, the White House said.
Roberts is the father of two young children.
He became chief justice after the death of William Rehnquist in September 2005, although Bush had first chosen him to take Sandra Day O'Connor's seat when she announced her retirement earlier that year.
He had served as an appellate judge in Washington and spent more than a decade before that as a lawyer at the Hogan and Hartson law firm, where he specialized in arguing cases before the Supreme Court.
Roberts also served in the Reagan and Bush administrations in the and '90s. He was a clerk for Rehnquist after graduating from Harvard Law School.
Roberts spent a couple of weeks in Europe in July, teaching a course in Vienna and attending a conference in Paris. He was at the court in Washington late last week.
Associated Press writer David Sharp in Portland, Maine, contributed to this story.
Jim Angle on Special Report is reporting it as so. Gran mal seizure. They don't know if it was before or after fall.
Damn right. And from the biographical information I've read, Thurgood Marshall's faculties were pretty damn weak for the last 10 years or so of his tenure--and his "aides" pretty much did his thinking for him.
In fact, I would say a combined "flat line" brain wave from Scailia, Thomas, Roberts and Alito would STILL have about 5 to 10 times the intellectual capacity of Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg.
I agree. There's threads already going about his fall ... post it there as a comment rather than give it a headline without mention that it's a vanity. You sourced it to Fox News Channel with no link, and you're not even sure of what you heard.
I don't meant to beat a dead horse, but this seems like an over-excited reaction to something you may or may not have heard.
No wrath here.
I just think you were a bit premature and under informed to start an entire thread.
All of us listening to fox news just heard Brit Hume report on the before or after grand mal seizure about 2 minutes before your post so now all you posting police can take it up with Brit Hume.
I heard the same thing. Many people have seizures. No need to get all excited at this point.
I have a sister in law that had several grand mal seizures in her younger years.
Hasn't had one since.
He had a seizure according to this:
Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., a seasonal resident of Hupper Island, located off Port Clyde, was taken to Penobscot Bay Medical Center in Rockport mid-day Monday.
St. George Ambulance responded to a call at about 2 p.m. Monday of a man who had fallen 5 to 10 feet and landed on a dock, hitting the back of his head. The patient was ashen and was foaming at the mouth. The patient had reportedly suffered a grand mal seizure and was transported to Penobscot Bay Medical Center.
As of Monday afternoon, Penobscot Bay Medical Center would not confirm that Roberts was a patient.
Roberts and his wife, Jane Roberts, purchased their home on Hupper Island in June 2006. The island is located a few hundreds yards off Port Clyde and is only accessible by boat.
Roberts, 52, was appointed as chief justice by President George W. Bush and has served since Sept. 29, 2005.
More information will be provided as it becomes available.
Prayers up for our Chief Justice.
As is usual with me, I check out DU to see what they are saying and they didn't let me down. Not all, but most, are wishing Roberts ill. Sickening!
Pray for Roberts.
Suit yourself. I've seen posts here based on less.
Roberts suffered a seizure 13 years ago while on the golf course. He wasn't allowed to drive for several months and took the bus to work. Doctors never figured out the problem.
I perused the messages of all threads until I made it to the Click for More point. The only news regarding the Chief Justice was this thread.
he has epilepsy?
We truly do not know what transpired yet based on the sporadic news reports however what you heard was true...
Sadly some on here like their news after the mainlame stream media reports it....

A solid, if uninspiring, router available at a decent price.
The Belkin N600 DB Wireless N+ Router is part of Belkin's new look design and packaging – a response from the company after the disastrous reception of its previous iteration of new look design and packaging. Inside is the same solid functionality and networking technology that made us appreciate the PlayMax range and its ilk.
The N600DB is dual-band, has four LAN ports and a USB port for networking a printer (or storage for people not in a hurry). We had no drop out issues during the test time and found the range to be more than adequate and a step above some of the models we've seen over the past 12 months.
The lack of Gigabit Ethernet is a minor disappointment, although that's available in the N750DB version. While the RRP puts it a little pricier than we might have liked, it can be found cheaper online.

Despite their engagement, all is not well between Amina and Elvino. She flinches when he nears her. His embraces hint at violence; he pins her down and lays a speculative hand around her neck. She knows she can expect no better. But when Count Rodolfo appears on the scene, we recognise a hunger for a better life in the way she looks at him.
With their new production of Bellini's bucolic alpine relationship drama, Jossi Wieler, Sergio Morabito and Anna Viebrock restore Stuttgart's opera house to a position of pre-eminence in Germany.
For the 15 years (1991-2006) that Klaus Zehelein was in charge, Stuttgart hosted some of the best productions in Europe. He is one of the leading minds in contemporary German music theatre, and nurtured the Wieler/Morabito/Viebrock triumvirate. Less fortunate experiments dominated the schedule under his successor, but Wieler's ascension to the head of the house this season signals a return to Zehelein's values of productions based firmly on score and text. And that is a fine thing, if this premiere is any guide.
The plot of La sonnambula is silly. When Amina turns up in Count Rodolfo's bed, Elvino returns to his ex, Lisa, until Amina exonerates herself with a public act of sleepwalking. Felice Romani's text is at best superficial; the opera's success depends on spectacular singing.
With characteristic genius, Viebrock's sets and costumes transport the action to a grimly claustrophobic village hall some time in the recent past. No alpine vistas mitigate the barbarity of this small-minded society. Tables and benches are folded and unfolded in a windowless communal space where people meet to mind each other's business, drink schnapps and form judgments.
Amina, shy and powerless, is pushed by her buttoned-up foster-mother Teresa into a socially advantageous match. Wieler and Morabito's psychological observation is both detailed and wickedly entertaining; the audience often roars with laughter, but never loses sympathy with the tragic heroine. At the bottom of their clever retelling lies an unshakeable faith in the score.
Singing that gets ever better as the evening progresses helps us believe in the feelings of the protagonists. Ana Durlovski's Amina has both touching fragility and – increasingly – poetic depth. Luciano Botelho succeeds in acting the brute while singing with smooth elegance as Elvino; Helene Schneiderman makes a Teresa of delectable complexity. Catriona Smith's Lisa is desperate, sassy and plausible, while Liang Li brings warmth and depth to the figure of Rudolfo. The chorus is superb. On the podium, Gabriele Ferro keeps his forces well together and hits a perfect balance between efficiency, delicacy, emotion and levity.

A study ranks digital gift card programs from Internet Retailer's Top 100 web merchants.
A study of the gift card programs of the Top 100 online retailers in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide finds only 50 offer digital gift cards.
Among those, the five digital gift card programs rated as best by research and advisory firm RSR Research were: The Home Depot Inc., No. 39 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, CVS Caremark Corp. (No. 73), Amazon.com Inc., (No. 1), American Eagle Outfitters Inc. (No. 51) and Sears Holdings Corp. (No. 8).
The study, conducted by RSR Research and sponsored by digital gift card company CashStar, analyzed digital gift card purchases made in July. It evaluated the retailers' programs using 20 criteria including comprehensiveness of the offering, selection, the purchase process and the recipient experience.
Because only 50 of the Top 100 web retailers offered digital gift cards, many missed prime sales opportunities, according to the study.
For example, Sony Style.com (No. 13) which has a tech-savvy demographic, does not offer digital gift cards, the study finds. Apple Inc. (No. 4), another retailer known for technology, had limited offerings, with cards only in set denominations and only as plastic cards, not cards that could be sent via e-mail. Urban Outfitters Inc. (No. 53), which targets teens and young adults well-versed in digital offerings, also has no digital card offering.
Victoria's Secret (No. 18) meanwhile could be turning off its gift card purchasers by sending as many as two e-mail offers to gift card purchasers each day, which could be perceived as spam, the study says.
Gift cards are an important tool during the holiday season, separate research from Internet measurement firm Experian Hitwise finds. It recently reported that gift card promotions in holiday e-mail marketing messages more than tripled conversion rates for multichannel retailers last year.
Despite their importance, many retailers in the RSR Research study made gift cards extremely difficult to find. For example, gift cards at Shutterfly Inc. (No. 67) and The Neiman Marcus Group Inc. (No. 41) could only be found on the site after researchers typed "gift card" into site search. And 10 retailers only offered online redemption, even though they also operate bricks-and-mortar stores.
Additionally, most retailers did not enable easy multiple purchases and only five actively pursued bulk purchases of gift cards—even though giving gift cards during the holidays as employee rewards and to business clients is a fairly common practice for corporations. Amazon, Recreational Equipment Inc. (No. 62), Home Depot, CVS Caremark and Nike Inc. (No. 48) actively marketed bulk purchases, RSR Research found.
In the RSR Research study, 32 of the 50 retailers with digital card programs did not offer flexibility or control over gift card delivery, and many did not tell shoppers when a gift card would be delivered until after it was purchased. Such policies could divert gift givers who want to get a gift purchase out of the way early. Amazon did best with delivery, enabling shoppers to choose a date and approximate time of delivery.
"Gift cards are such an important retail staple, yet many retailers' offerings have not evolved to keep up with the changing needs of today's consumer. We were surprised that gift card offerings were often hard to find, difficult to navigate, and lacked follow-through for both the sender and the recipient," says Nikki Baird, managing partner at RSR Research. "This is an enormous missed opportunity for retailers, especially as we enter the most critical gifting season of the year."
Baird adds she did not expect to see that many retailers offering gift cards on their web sites fail to extend the offer to their mobile sites and apps.
"We were really surprised that even retailers who have mobile commerce and who have gift cards available for online purchase did not tend to make gift cards available for sale via mobile," she says. "There were only a few exceptions to this." Target is a good example, she says, in that the retailer lets shoppers check a gift card balance and redeem a card through Target's iPhone app, but do not let mobile shoppers buy a gift card through the app.

This review is from: GIGABYTE Radeon HD 6870 DirectX 11 GV-R687OC-1GD 1GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity
Pros: Fast, extremely high frame rate on Skyrim and other games when crossfired
Cons: I bought 1 of these, installed it and loved it. I thought, I sure would like a second to crossfire and that is where the troubles began. I have a Gigabyte X58A-UD3R (note the manufacturer of the motherboard) and when two of these boards are installed the bottom one blocks the airflow of the top one. Then it runs too hot and locks up your PC. I bought Bit-Fenix fans for my case, highest CFM I could find, and that worked for awhile but finally the top card gave out. I contacted Gigabyte to ask for their opinion with no avail. Got some broken response from them. Another note, ATI-Radeon in crossfire only uses the bottom video card if the application is in full screen mode so if you don't run a game in full screen mode the bottom card's only job is to block the air flow of the top card. Nice design. And furthermore, it is not a reference design so you can't get a liquid cooler for this card. I have to say really?!?
Other Thoughts: Fortunately I bought the extended warranty and had a second card. The bottom card since it was mostly inactive is still good. back to newegg you goREAD FULL REVIEW
This review is from: G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F1-3200PHU2-2GBNS
Pros: It did speed my aging computer up a bit
Cons: I installed this in a P4 3.2GHz Gigabyte 8KNXP motherboard along side a pair of CMX1024-3200C2 parts because the corsair memory is discontinued. This memory ran ultra hot and soon the computer was rebooting continuously. Removed this memory and the computer runs normal albeit slower than with the memory installed.
