People with advanced liver cancer will be denied a new drug on the NHS under draft guidance published today.
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) said the price being charged by pharmaceutical firm Bayer for the medicine was "simply too high". Treatment with the drug costs £36,000 a year per patient.
But cancer charities said it was a "scandal" that patients are being refused the only drug that has been shown to extend their lives.
Nexavar (also called sorafenib) is not a cure but has the potential to help people live longer, typically by six months.
Bayer, which offered a patient access scheme where the company would provide every fourth packet for free, said it will appeal the decision.
The drug is suitable for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which occurs when the cancer tumour originates in the liver rather than spreading there from elsewhere in the body.
The only hope of a cure is surgery but very few patients are eligible for this.
More than 3,000 people in the UK are diagnosed with liver cancer every year and more than 3,200 die from the disease.
In 2006, 3,190 people were diagnosed with liver cancer in the UK.
In 2007, 3,202 died of the disease, according to the most recent figures available from Cancer Research UK.
Only around 20 per cent of patients are alive one year after diagnosis, dropping to 5 per cent after five years.
Andrew Dillon, chief executive of Nice, said: "We were disappointed not to have been able to recommend the use of sorafenib but after carefully considering all the evidence, including the proposed patient access scheme in which the manufacturer offered to provide every fourth pack free, sorafenib does not provide enough benefit to patients to justify its high cost.
"We have recently changed our approach to appraising high cost treatments which can extend life for terminally ill patients.
"This has meant that more of them are now being recommended. We looked at sorafenib in just the same way but the price being asked by Bayer is simply too high to justify using NHS money which could be spent on better value cancer treatments."
Mike Hobday, head of campaigns at Macmillan Cancer Support, said: "We are extremely disappointed that Nice has decided not to recommend sorafenib as a treatment for people with advanced liver cancer.
"It is a scandal that the only licensed drug proven to significantly prolong the lives of people with this devastating disease has been rejected, leaving them with no treatment options.
"It's time to rethink the way new cancer drugs are assessed to ensure fairer access to drugs for people with rarer cancers."
Bayer said Nice did not appear to have acted in accordance with its own processes.
Nicole Farmer, business unit head of Bayer Schering Pharma oncology in the UK, said: "While we recognise that Nice has difficult decisions to make, we are without doubt that today's guidance goes completely against UK HCC treatment guidelines, Nice's own 'end of life' criteria and the current government strategy to bring cancer outcomes in line with Europe.
"Bayer has proposed an excellent patient access scheme for Nexavar, unique to the UK, to enable patients in this country to benefit from this life-extending medicine.
"We believed we had satisfied Nice's criteria for how Nexavar would be assessed - however, the 'goal posts' appeared to have moved.
"We shall appeal against the decision and, if we are successful, this will enable the NHS to offer a similar level of access to Nexavar as other EU countries such as France, Germany, Spain, Italy and Romania where it has already been granted funding."
Kate Spall fought for the drug for her mother Pamela Northcott, who died in 2007.
Her local health trust in Wales denied the drug but Mrs Spall won two months of treatment for her mother.
Mrs Spall said Nice's end of life policy and recommendations contained in a 2007 review by cancer tsar Professor Mike Richards had been ignored.
"Yet again we are subjected to more spin and no substance," she said.
"When are the government going to wake up and realise we want clinicians to decide on our treatments - not accountants and statisticians?
"Today, I put my heart and soul into ensuring that no cancer patient ever goes through the hell that she suffered and I have won cases for over 250 UK patients, with two new patients' requests each day.
"So despite this devastating news, in my mother's name I will continue to fight for UK cancer patients and win so they don't have to spend the last few months of their lives fighting for themselves, often by themselves".
Professor Peter Johnson, Cancer Research UK's chief clinician, said: "The results of a large international trial found that sorafenib (Nexavar) helps patients with liver cancer to live longer.
"This drug has an effect in people with advanced liver cancer who are unable to have surgery or any other treatments, so we are disappointed that the manufacturers have been unable to reach an agreement to enable Nice to recommend this drug.
"It is particularly frustrating that cancer patients in the UK are unable to access this drug when it is routinely available elsewhere in the world."

It was reported earlier today that former Raiders' linebacker Rolando McClain cleared waivers.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, McClain has already received three offers, with two other teams also interested.
I wonder if one of those teams is the New York Giants who wanted to draft McClain a few years ago before the Raiders reached for him in the top-10.

|Changing the Default webapp
|Fri, 14 Aug 2009 10:07:51 GMT
Dear Tomcat experts, I've been trying to figure out how to change the default webapp in Tomcat 6.0.18 from 'ROOT' to 'uPortal'. I want it such that, when a user enters http://www.myportal.ac.uk/ into their browser they get uPortal rather than the default out-of-the-box Tomcat landing page. Currently, to get uPortal, a user has to enter: http://www.myportal.ac.uk/uPortal . - I've tried deleting the 'webapps/ROOT' webapp and creating a symlink called 'ROOT' to link to 'webapps/uPortal'. This works, however, I suspect the webapp is being initialised twice, once as ROOT and the other as uPortal. This is obviously not great. - I could do an apache URI rewrite for '/' => '/uPortal/'. But this would still result in '/uPortal/' appearing in the users address bar. - The uPortal.war could be renamed to ROOT.war, however, I would rather much prefer to keep uPortal in the 'uPortal' webapp directory. - I'd like to keep Tomcat's auto deploy functionality. So, considering the points above, does anyone know a way of changing the default webapp for Tomcat? Many Thanks, Nick University of the West of England, Bristol This email was independently scanned for viruses by McAfee anti-virus software and none were found --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

On episode 3 of Baccano, its awesome so far but the story telling took getting used to. The characters do seem great and I like stuff about the mafia.
Just watched the movie. It was an awesome.
Are there any other anime with such a great cast of characters. I'm looking back and rhinking I watched that WAY too fast.... I'm going to miss all the damn characters from Cowboy Bebop.
Cow boy bebop had such a sad ending, I got the tingly feeling and I feel sad. It definitely pulled on the manly heart strings. Thanks for the recommendation! Now its time for the movie, which I know isnt after the series its during.
I can't believe I'm almost done Cowboy bebop already. After I watch the movie, I'm still alittle confused on what I'm going to watch, I'll figure it out though.

The hand-wringing over the New York Jets' offensive struggles is legitimate.
The Jets were inept Sunday.
Sometimes the other team deserves credit. This is one of those times. The San Francisco 49ers are what happened to the Jets in Week 4, continuing a theme around here (the Arizona Cardinals happened to Tom Brady and Michael Vick, while the Seattle Seahawks happened to Tony Romo and Aaron Rodgers).
In honor of the 49ers' defensive effort Sunday, I've put together a chart from ESPN Stats & Information showing to what degree they limited Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez relative to the other quarterbacks they've faced this season.
It's not pretty.

There are some AFC West players on the Football Outsiders' list of the most irreplaceable offensive skill position players in the NFL.
That got me thinking. Who is the most irreplaceable player on each AFC West roster heading in the 2012 season? I took the quarterbacks out of the mix, but I made every other player on the roster eligible. Here are my choices:
Denver, receiver Eric Decker: Decker is emerging as Manning's most reliable target. Manning's game is predicated on rhythm and anticipation. He trusts Decker. I expect Decker to be the player Manning goes to the most. So, he will be vital to Denver's offense.
Kansas City, linebacker Tamba Hali: The Chiefs will have to find a way to deal with Hali's loss for the season opener against visiting Atlanta in Week 1. Hali violated the NFL's substance abuse policy and is out for that game. The Chiefs would suffer if Hali had miss significant time. He is the team's best defensive player and he is a supreme pass-rusher. He is a difference maker.
Oakland, running back Darren McFadden: The Raiders already know what it is like to play without this explosive running back and they don't like the results. Oakland was 4-2 when McFadden got hurt for the season last year and it finished 8-8. He makes Oakland's offense dangerous because of his ability to change the game as a rusher and as a receiver.
San Diego, tight end Antonio Gates: He is Philip Rivers' best and favorite target. Gates has been hampered by injuries the past four seasons and the Chargers' offense has suffered for it. He is healthy now and primed for a big season. With running back Ryan Mathews and receiver Vincent Brown already out for a portion of the regular season, Gates' presence is even more vital.

"If It Moves, It Can Move You": Opposites in the Cinema
Taught by Ken Kimmelman
This series will show how the art of the cinema, in its technique and meaning, and in all its diversity—from slapstick to spectacle, cinema verité to the fantastic, tragedy to comedy—is a oneness of the permanent opposites in reality:
"All beauty," stated Eli Siegel, "is a making one of opposites, and the making one of opposites is what we are going after in ourselves."
Whenever a film is good or beautiful it is because it puts opposites together—rest and motion, light and dark, space and time, nearness and distance, continuity and discontinuity, unity and variety, freedom and order—the same opposites we are trying to make sense of in our lives. The series will study how these opposites are present in the motion picture, from Edwin S. Porter's The Great Train Robbery of 1903 to the latest cinematic achievement. Short film excerpts will be shown and discussed in each class.
The Winter semester of classes is now in session. For information about auditing classes, call the Registrar at 212.777.4490.

May 25: Elections in Film: Is a Campaign For the People—or Against Them?
Every election is about the opposites: centrally, one and many. How much will a particular candidate—who is one person—honestly represent the people, all the people, in their manyness? Or is the candidate mainly interested in taking care of just himself or herself and "the 1 percent"? In the best films about elections those opposites of one and many are vivid, as are the opposites of private and public, hidden and shown: we see the wheeling and dealing behind the scenes. And through it all, there is the fight that Eli Siegel described as the biggest in everyone: between contempt for the world and respect.

June 22: Adventures at Sea: Water, Wind, Sky—and Good and Evil
Audiences have been gripped by intense and exciting films about adventures on the high seas, with their tumultuous storms and unsettling calms. We see people yielding to and resisting the elements, but also struggling with each other, and sometimes with themselves. When a film about the sea is powerful, it shows, with fine cinematic technique, the complex human drama of good and evil in the midst of the mysterious and mighty forces of nature.
Films: Moby Dick, The Caine Mutiny, Captains Courageous, Billy Budd, Lifeboat
July 20: Films about the Press; or, The Drama of Ego vs. Truth
Filmmakers have been very interested in the newspaper business. Some films have shown courageous journalists fighting for justice. But many others have shown the conceit of press persons driven by contempt, using their power to manipulate the news—to lie about the facts, withhold information, damage and even destroy people's lives—for their own glory and profit. A good film about the press gives dramatic, aesthetic form to the battle between ethics and ego, good will and ill will, truth and sleazy self-importance.
Films: Ace in the Hole, Citizen Kane, The Front Page, Veronica Guerin
Apr. 27: The Corporate Cover-Up; or, Contempt Unmasked
In recent decades, films have exposed various corporate practices which companies have tried to keep hidden and have lied about—practices resulting, for example, in contaminated water, radiation poisoning, unsafe automobiles, deaths from tobacco. Both the practices and their effects are direct results of the profit motive. And these films are part of what Eli Siegel described as the force of ethics. The films, and the welcome they've received from audiences, are a showing that people are furious at the profit system—which is the using of human beings and the earth contemptuously, for somebody's private profit. The corporate cover-up films illustrate both the contempt at the basis of profit economics, and the fact that, as Mr. Siegel explained, people are saying, "We don't want ill will to hurt and poison our lives anymore."

People have always loved singing and dancing, and when sound came to the movies with Al Jolson's The Jazz Singer, the movie musical was born. The motion picture camera brought new visual dimension and splendors to the musical. Meanwhile, whenever the movie musical is good, it has—at one with stirring imagery—a depth and meaning.
Films: Gold Diggers of 1933, Singin' in the Rain, Grease, Top Hat, The Sound of Music, Showboat, 42nd Street, Oklahoma, An American in Paris, South Pacific
Jan 27: The Drama of Marriage in Film
Filmmakers around the globe have been very interested in presenting on the big screen the intimate drama of marriage—the hopes and fears, pains and pleasures, fors and againsts. Whenever a film about the relation of husband and wife is art, the film's technique has what Aesthetic Realism shows marriage itself should go for: justice to, and love for, the world. Filmmakers and couples haven't known this—and need to!
Films: Scenes from a Marriage; A Woman Under the Influence; Summer Wishes, Winter Dreams; Giorni e Nuvole (Days and Clouds); Dodsworth
Nov 25: The Drama of Art & Life—Films about Artists
Surprisingly, only a few filmmakers have been impelled to present the lives of artists on the big screen. Looking at some of the important painters of the world, they have tried to show what these artists were affected by, their vision, their technique, and their struggles. When these films are true to their subject, they illustrate what has been explained for the first time by Aesthetic Realism: the large fight in every artist, as in every person, is between respect, which is the source of all art, and contempt, which is the greatest enemy of both art and life.
Films: The Girl with the Pearl Earring, Pollock, Lust For Life, Renoir, Moulin Rouge (1952)
Oct 28: Lightness & Seriousness in the Short Animated Film
The impossible, the outrageous, the uproarious, and the gravity-defying can be seen in an animated film. While thousands of such films have been produced all over the world, the ones that are remembered are those that have true aesthetic form: that make opposites one. Notably, they put together the opposites of lightness and seriousness in a way that is surprising and meaningful. They delight audiences while also having a deep ethical message.
Films: Duck Amuck, For the Birds, The Danish Poet, The Dot & the Line, The Cow, The Old Mill
Sep 30: Courage under Fire—Films about the Resistance in World War II
Some of the greatest acts of valor in history were those of the men and women of the Resistance in World War II. They were persons passionately against the horrific evil of fascism. There are films about the Resistance that are art—stirring and unforgettable. These present the struggle of good and evil, courage and cowardice, triumph and defeat with a composition that is at once honest and beautiful. And they have one feel that, in Eli Siegel's words, "good is also powerful. Good also has its metal and its speed."
Films: The Army of Shadows, Battle of the Rails, Lucie Aubrac, Sophie Scholl, Army of Crime, The North Star, Counterfeit Traitor
June 24: Akira Kurosawa—or, Humanity Seen Dramatically
The films of Akira Kurosawa, one of the most celebrated directors, encompass the intimate aspirations of one man, epic armies battling for power, the struggles of the downtrodden, the intrigues of royalty. So much human tumult and depth and feeling are dealt with and presented with great cinematic beauty.
Films: The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail, Ikiru, Rashoman, Seven Samurai, Yojimbo, High and Low, Ran
May 27: The Silent Film—A Great, New Art Form!
Something big and new in art came to be with the motion picture. "Right from the beginning," Eli Siegel explained, "there was the accent on motion, some kind of abstraction even, and then there was sentimentality." The silent film brought wonder to people and great emotion about the world.
Films: Intolerance, Greed, Napoleon, The Wind, The Big Parade
April 22: Film Noir—or, A Light in the Dark!
People have been interested in seeing corruption, crime, the darker side of life—the drama of good and evil—as these are shown on the big screen in a good film noir. The dramatic relation of black and white, shadow and sunlight, which are distinctive in this genre, have a large ethical and even hopeful meaning for every person's life.
Films: Touch of Evil; Double Indemnity; Diabolique; Le Jour Se Lève;The Asphalt Jungle
March 25: Humor—or, The Awry Given Gorm in Three Foreign Films
Mishap, mayhem, and mischief, when given form in the cinema, have delighted audiences everywhere. Eli Siegel defined humor as "the feeling that the ugly is beautiful, while it is still seen as ugly first." While styles may vary, anytime a film makes for that feeling, something big occurs: honest laughter can result, and the world is authentically felt as likable.
Films: The Lavender Hill Mob; The Sheep Has Five Legs; Big Deal on Madonna Street
Feb. 25: Fathers & Sons—or, A Drama of Agreement & Disagreement
It has often been said, "Like father like son." Yet disagreements between father and son have been a large subject in history and literature—and film. A good film on this subject will give outward form to a conflict that goes on within the self of both people too, and that arises from an insufficient desire to understand each other's individuality.
Films: The Thing About My Folks; Nebraska; At Any Price; All My Sons; In the Name of the Father; Boyz n the Hood
Jan. 28: Racism Is Contempt for Difference, and Movies Tell about It
There have been courageous filmmakers who have shown the brutality of racism. Meanwhile, they haven't seen what Aesthetic Realism explains: 1) all racism arises from contempt; and 2) the aesthetic form which a good film gives to that cruelty contains in outline the means to oppose it.
Films: Sugar Cane Alley, Mississippi Burning; A Dry White Season, Glory
Dec. 10: Alfred Hitchcock—A Master of Suspense
One of the most famous of all film directors who has kept audiences on the edge of their seats, is Alfred Hitchcock. His films have been loved for their mystery, suspense, and adventure. Yet Hitchcock, as artist, hasn't been sufficiently honored. He put together the opposites of light and dark, rest and motion, space and time in a way that was new, deep, and thrilling.
Films: The Lady Vanishes; Strangers on a Train; North by Northwest; Rebecca; Vertigo; Rear Window; Shadow of a Doubt; Suspicion.
Nov. 12: The Romantic Comedy—or, Love Has Obstacles
One of the most popular of film genres is the romantic comedy, in which two people delightfully overcome obstacles that seem insurmountable. While these films are lightsome, entertaining, and sometimes zany—at their best, they also have depth and meaning, and represent the victory of what Aesthetic Realism describes love as being: "proud need."
Films: Bringing Up Baby; The Goodbye Girl; My Cousin Vinny
Oct. 29: Irish Films—or, How Should People Be Seen?
Ireland, with its breathtaking landscapes, Celtic legends, and centuries-long struggle for freedom, has been dramatically and movingly presented in its films. At their best they show the intense fight in people between toughness and tenderness, joy and sorrow, good will and ill will—in relation to the land, family, money, religion, and love.They give artistic form to this urgent, ethical question: How should a person be seen?
Films: The Informer; Waking Ned Devine; The Magdalene Sisters.
Oct. 15: Animals in Film—What Do They Say About Us?
Some of the most loved films in the world are about animals—dogs, horses, pigs, bears, even whales. People have been stirred by the way animals have shown faithfulness, gratitude, and courage. To see an orphan bear cub seeking a new mother, or a dog saving a man's life at the risk of his own, has moved audiences to tears.
Films: The Bear; Call of the Wild; Babe; Free Willy; Black Stallion; Born Free; A Dog of Flanders.
Aug. 20: The Great Charlie Chaplin—Laughter & Tears
There is nobody more loved in the history of the cinema than the great Charlie Chaplin. The Little Tramp is immortal because of the way he puts opposites together with such depth and humor. "Chaplin," said Eli Siegel, "could get together tenderness and cruelty, fear and nonchalance; and he could do it with the way his whole body worked."
Films: City Lights; The Kid; Shoulder Arms; The Cure; Easy Street; The Immigrant
July 23. The Spy Film; or, Appearance & Reality
The spy movie has kept people on the edge of their seats. Whether a spy is dodging bullets, drinking martinis, or busy sending secret messages while working undercover, there's always that nail-biting question–will he or she be found out? The spy film brings up the large, ethical matter: when is pretense truly on behalf of reality?
Films: Notorious; Dr. No; Spies; The Black Book; The House on 92nd Street
June 25: It's Never Too Late to See the World Newly
There have been more and more films about the lives of people as they grow older. While the circumstances as to family, love, usefulness, money, health may change, every good film about growing older shows in stirring and surprising ways the truth and beauty of Eli Siegel's statement: "The desire of a person of eighty to like himself and the world is as keen as it was when that person was eight."
Films: Cocoon; Umberto D; Ikiru; The Straight Story; The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel; Driving Miss Daisy; Elsa and Fred
May 28: Food in Film—or, Being Pleased & Made Stronger
A wonderful subject of the cinema has been food. Watching a delicious meal being prepared, or enjoyed, has enthralled people. (Remember the famous tavern scene in Tom Jones!) In anything we do we want to be pleased and made stronger, and, at their best, films about food–the staple of life–have shown that in dramatic and imaginative ways.
Films: Babette's Feast; Like Water for Chocolate; Mostly Martha; Eat Drink Man Woman; Tampopo

Day eighteen is sandals!
"The term flip-flop has been used in American and British English since circa 1972 to describe the thong or no heel strap sandal. It gets its name from the sound that is made by walking in them. Flip-flops were commonly worn in Nigeria at least since the early sixties, and it is perhaps from Britons and Americans returning home that the term spread. They could be bought by tracing round the edge of a foot on paper, and then the template would accompany a servant to the market, where he would barter for flip-flops.
This footwear has a number of terms around the world. In India and Pakistan, flip-flops are commonly known as hawai chappal, which literally translates from Hindustani as "air sandal". The Japanese wear similarly designed, traditional straw sandals known as zori. Throughout the world, they are known by a variety of other names, including dép tông or dép xỏ ngón in Vietnam, chinelos in Brazil, Jandals (short for "Japanese sandals") in New Zealand, japonki in Poland, dacas in Somalia, sayonares in Greece, Schlapfen in Austria, slippers in Hawai'i, slops in South Africa, thongs in Australia, tsinelas in the Philippines, djapanki in Bulgaria, and vietnamki in Russia and Ukraine."

What the Categories Mean
Primary Aromas
Primary Aromas
Primary aromas are from the type of the grape or the environment in which it grows. For instance, Barbera wines will often have subtle nuances of licorice or anise. You'll find quite a range of flavors in the Primary Aroma group including fruit flavors, herbal flavors, earthiness, floral notes and spices.
Secondary Aromas
Secondary aromas come from the fermentation process which includes yeast and other microbes. A great example of this is the sour smell that you can find in Brut Champagne that is sometimes described as 'bready' or 'yeasty'. These fermentation-related aromas are present in all wines at some level and you'll find that young wines tend to have more intense Secondary Aromas than wines that have been aged.
Tertiary Aromas
Tertiary aromas (classically referred to as 'bouquets') come from aging wine. Aging aromas are from oxidation and resting the wine in oak or bottles for a period of time. You're probably familiar with the vanilla aroma associated with oak-aging. Other, more subtle, examples of tertiary aromas are nutty flavors like hazelnut found in vintage Champagne or dried fruit aromas such as fig that are associated with older red wines.
While an excess of these flavors is considered a wine fault, you'll find that many will disagree as to whether or not some of these categories are truly faults. A great example of a wine fault that is sometimes a positive characteristic is Brettanomyces. Additionally, some wines are cooked on purpose to develop toffee flavors. On the other hand, 2,4,6-Trichloroanisole or cork taint is a fault that affects up to 3% of wines that are bottled with natural cork.

This is based on a coverage of 10m² per litre of paint. Always check the coverage on the side of the tin before buying.
How to guides
How to paint your wall
You should normally paint your walls and ceilings with emulsion, acrylic or water-based eggshell. Non-drip emulsion is also available in jelly or solid form, and this is particularly good for ceilings. Never stir non-drip paint, no matter how lumpy it looks. You'll cause the gel structure to break down, and the paint will lose its non-drip quality.
Buying guides
Buyer's guide to primers
If you're painting on bare wood, plaster or metal surfaces, you'll get a better result if you use a primer first. It provides a surface which the paint can bond to and stops the paint being absorbed. Find out more what you need and for what surface.

Skip to comments.Laura Bush: A First Lady who made America proud
Posted on 04/08/2009 9:59:12 PM PDT by STARWISE
During a time when young women in the United States have few role models and Britney Spears' misbehavior is fodder for the airwaves, former First Lady Laura Bush continues to represents American womanhood at its best.
While Mrs. Bush may have been thought of as an old style first lady because although she was a woman with strong opinions, she understood that her place in the White House was to bring dignity to her role as the first lady of the land.
The song, "Stand by your man" might describe the way Ms. Bush supported her husband during his presidency. While she did not favor overturning Roe v. Wade, she did it quietly, with her usual reserve.
Mrs. Bush represented something that is not often seen in a political setting: wholesome, not flashy, and doing little to draw attention to herself. This is not to say that she did not make a stand, such as being against the junta in Burma.
Perhaps Laura Bush learned from the first ladies that preceded her: Mamie Eisenhower, Pat Nixon, Betty Ford, and Rosalyn Carter. She did not have the glamor of Jackie Kennedy but brought the quiet dignity that exemplified her style.
Now that Ms. Bush has returned to private life, she will continue to be remembered as a First Lady who did America proud.
She set the bar high for first ladies: grace, dignity, refinement, kindness, good humor, good works, wifely love and devotion ... and humility ... and she is greatly missed.
~~First-rate First Lady ........... PING!
Both of the Bush ladies are first rate.
We've sure lost a lot of ground.
...and sleeve material.
Thank you for this thread. I just posted on another thread that I am going off to bed now trying to pretend that this is still our first lady. What a class act. Beautiful inside and out.
God bless.
And now we hear about how the current first lady has great muscle tone in her arms......
The headline says it all.
And diva style false eyelashes.
Laura Bush put the Lady in First Lady.
In an incredible short amount of time
Now we have first woman. Or as the rappers say, first **
That would be because the mainstream media didn't have 'A Slobbering Love Affair' with Mrs. Bush. But the MSM did and does have a sickening, slobbering love affair with the Kennedys and Obamas.
Have you taken a look at a magazine rack lately? Last time I counted about a half a dozen magazines devoted to the Obamas.
You could feel the love! What a shining example of marriage and devotion. They just moved in up the street, but how I wish they were still at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Don't we all. They're your neighbors ? Wow .. that is special. Have you seen them out and about ? Please give them huge thanks and love from the Dosers, should you see them. We'd love any news on the "Dose" .. which is the monthly thread linked below.
A recent update about Laura:
She is a truly elegant lady.
I did not care for him to much but I always enjoyed seeing her come on the tube for any reason. just a warm, classy lady. that is a wonderful picture of them.
My Belle should have toned arms at her age. It should come natural if you are active. I would be embarassed if the only thing people could compliment was my arms. Crazy talk.
Worlds apart.
Great picture.
Compare with the 'fist bump'.
Somethin' about those eyes just gives me the willies.
Yep Star, she sure is missed. I have a feeling that she will be more and more appreciated as time goes by.
After less than three months of Dumbo and Dumb Dora The Bushes look like George Washington and Martha.
Didn't have "toned" arms though....../sarc
You and me both! It's like their own little code look for 'we fooled em, and we got here, and we're gonna do things OUR way!'
She looks like that bride who ran away in GA.
Somebody remind me of what she did. Eight years and I can't think of a thing. Did she have a *cause*?
The internet is your friend.
Yes, she did. She was a school teacher and went all across the country encourageing children to read. She and Jenna wrote a childrens book as well.
The Press did little to campaign for our dear first ladies cause. She was gracious and lovely as well. I miss her.
Too bad she didn't do anything to advance the cause of Conservatism.
**Laura Bush: A First Lady who made America proud**
Definitely! And not a bad speaker either.
. . . literacy is such an anti-conservative cause! /sarcasm off
Michelle Obama=no class.
Great First Lady - classiest EVER. Laura worked hard for the freedom of women in Afghanistan (and their literacy), worked with the Millenium Challenge in Africa, and worked for freedom in Burma.
She did more for the cause of freedom than any First Lady has ever done.
And for me, freedom is one of the fundamental conservative principles.
But obviously some around here disagree with the whole fight-for-freedom thing, eh?
Classy Laura the class act I cant wait to have Kagan on SC that will ensure our freedoms. classy laura abortion supporter freedom is vital to all who want to murder babies. Classy Laura freedom for Gays. Yes the classy one is all for freedoms. let freedom ring!
(btw, the hyperbole doesn't earn you debate points. It diminishes them).
Best first Lady ever. Still proud.
You have to read Laura's book, here's a few samples :
Chapter 7 : Immigration reform : Because we all were illegal immigrants once
Chapter 8 : Compassionate conservatism, because conservatives are not compassionate like me
Chapter 9 : Same-sex marriage, because we need more love in the world.
Chapter 10 : No Child Left Behind , Why the teachers union loves your child more than you.
Chapter 11 Judge Sonia Sotomayor :A wise Latino woman on the court can better decide whats fair for you.
Chapter 12: Its not a child, its a choice. How to move on with your life after getting the good news.
Laura Bush is a RINO, and any "conservative" who continues to defend her despite knowing of her record is also a RINO.
7 & 10 are the best.
She's a RINO?? I thought she was an outright democrat. Well either way she wins the "Not as bad as Michele Obama" toaster award. We can all aspire to that high bar ourselves. To the good times!
Can anyone point me to the latest 'Sanity Island Pray for Bush' thread ?
She squandered her chits a couple of weeks ago when she went all pro-choice on Larry King don't you think?
Not good, not good at all...........
You forgot the one of Martin Sheen when he tried to pretend he couldn't speak up against the war........
Oh starwise, I just LOVE that (post 13) picture! What do you think they're smiling about?
Here's a possibility of the thought I imagine they're communicating to each other in that shot: Laura, "You know Dear, this Satanic Globalist Agenda is intoxicating!" Dubbya,"Yes Dear, and the way we used the pro-lifers to get here was precious."
Press 1 for English....
I made the decision yesterday to try to avoid any more threads on Laura Bush.
She's a wonderful, classy, caring woman, I love her, and I'm praying for her.
Thanks for understanding why I'm not going to continue the conversation..
Oh I'm praying for her too, I'm praying that Almighty God will smack some sense into her, meanwhile I'm also praying that she'll just shut the Hell up instead of feeding the pro-homo lobby and the abortion industry with her clap trap.

Good 3.9 /5 from 142 reviews
This is a nice, clean and well-maintained independent motel that is a great value, very comfortable and convenient. For people looking for something different than a national chain, this is a good, safe choice. I had as good and comfortable a stay as I would have for twice the price. Not everything is 2016 style, but it is all clean, in excellent condition, and works as it should.
Wonderful stay. I will return. Very clean rooms, friendly service, and close to all the attractions.
The bathroom was tiny esp. the shower which is a narrow stall you have to step out of to shampoo or soap up. Recommend to get a tub/ shower room. Room was just big enough to get around beds.
After calling, I checked in afterhours, an envelope was taped to the office door with my keys and info - it could not have been easier.
Very good low cost hotel for the area. The shower was small but the room was very clean. Continental breakfast was provided. Good restaurants within walking distance of Hotel. Would definitely stay here again.

When light turns to dark
ill be there
in your window in your door
in your room when you sleep
I hear your blood pumping though your vines
I smell your fear
It sends shivers down my spine and make me want you more
I call to you softly my child
Your soul is mine
you come to me
i stroke my hand across your cheek
Then I go down your bair chest
You shall not live to see another day or night
i grab you and sink my teeth in to you
You let out a scream
I pull you closer
I feel your heart beat slowing
Your body gets weaker
after a while you die
I toss you on the bed like you were nothing
cause you are
I let out a laugh as I leave your room
Then I see a nother man going into his room
he smiles at me
and i wink at him he opens his door then stands to the side
well i never turn down desert

Murry Phaniff is a 46-year-old insurance adjuster living in the small town of Ipswich just north of Boston. After a happy marriage of ten years, Murry's wife Eleanor succumbed to a brain tumor. That was eight years ago and ever since Murry has engaged in the practice of not only adjusting people's insurance needs, but also their lives when necessary.
For example, when an elderly couple required his services after a tree fell on their garage, he discovered that they were being systematically targeted by a scam artist who preyed on the elderly to make bogus investments in gold futures. Murry made arrangements to entrap the confidence man with the help of the local Sheriff and through their combined efforts, the heartless criminal landed in prison where he was murdered by his fellow inmates who frown on the practice of taking advantage of the elderly.
On a trip to Las Vegas to attend a biannual National Association of Independent Insurance Adjusters Conference at the Flamingo Casino, Murry's extracurricular adjusting gets him involved with a beautiful woman and a double homicide for which he is the prime suspect.
Murry must flee from the police and with the help of his brilliant young assistant they must find the killer before becoming the next victims. The hunt takes them to the San Francisco Bay area where a mysterious stranger intervenes to save their lives.

Sydney Covington is an anthropology student who finds herself running for her life when she innocently brings an ancient human bone fragment with her to grad school in New Mexico. She and her photographer boyfriend Emmet Williams' best hope for surviving a triangle of death and destruction is a semi-inept FBI agent. Bone of Contention is a mystery that unfolds in 66,000-words.
The relic, an eight inch humerus jaggedly broken at the elbow, had been given to Sydney's father by Professor Johnson, an archeologist friend who directed an ill fated dig in Canyon de Chelly in 1966 where the bone was unearthed. The trouble begins when the beautiful Italian banker Alba Frisetti's operative and part-time antique dealer, Jesús Morales, discovers that the jeweler a few doors down from his Santa Fe shop engraved some almost imperceptible numbers on a bone fragment thirty years earlier. Although the story touches on the legitimacy of contemporary Native American's claim to be the original Americans, the core of the tale revolves around black-market trafficking of ancient human skeletons.
FBI Special Agent Charles Wilson does his best to keep up with what's going on and at the same time shield Sydney and Emmet from those who would stop at nothing to get their hands on the bone fragment. Greed, pride, fear, and the desire for justice propel Bone of Contention toward its gory conclusion.

Riding America is a day by day account of the author's motorcycle pilgrimage from Boston to Berkeley in the summer of 2003. Undertaken while on sabbatical leave from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, American Ground recounts his experiences and impressions of the state of Union and the people and places encountered along the way. Richly illustrated with over 70 of the author's color photographs, Riding America reveals much of what goes unseen, is taken for granted, or simply ignored by most of us as we go about our busy daily lives. "This book is essential reading for anyone who has made their own journey, planning one, or is an armchair traveler." — Gregori Bresaz (world traveler)
The Photograph is a gripping tale of adventure, kidnapping, and disappearance. When amateur photographer Mark Johnson discovers the image of a child in one of his photographs, his entire life is turned upside down. His only hope is to enlist his longtime friend and international spook, Erik Thorsen, to get him out of his jam and protect him from "Skull." The story takes them from Florida to Death Valley and beyond.

Viena Tourism & Travel Guide
Vienna is a wonderful city i visited....
View more comments...
Top Places To Visit 8 Spots
Schönbrunn Palace
Schönbrunn Palace stands tall in the list of Europe's opulent palaces. Reminiscent of the Baroque era, the Palace is among the classic "must-sees" for tourists coming to Vienna. So make sure you reach here early if you want to avoid long queues. We took the 'Grand Tour', wandering through the 40 rooms of the Palace – each evoking an awed response from both me and my husband. Each room has a distinct character and are intricately done. For instance, there is a 'Rich Bedroom' with its rich red velvet hangings and precious embroidery in gold and silver. Or the 'Millions Room' that is set apart in its decor showcasing scenes from the life of Mogul rulers in India in the 16th and 17th centuries and features panelling decorated with 60 Rococo cartouches with Indo-Persian miniatures. After the tour of the Palace, we explored the royal gardens. The central axis of the palace formed the backbone of the gardens and each section is meticulously set in accordance with the axes. The vast gardens are really an extension of the ruler's status, but pity we didn't get a chance to see the flowers in full bloom as we visited in early spring. What I specially loved about our visit was the Easter market, which I hadn't known about before. There was live music, delicious food stalls and glühwein! Cherry on the top? An unexpected snowfall!!
Hotel Sacher Wien
If there is ever a souvenir you want to take back from Vienna, let it be the 3 kilos you will gain from eating all the wonderful food. Sure, Vienna is famous for the Schnitzel, but the chances of you finding one without pork are slim (God bless the chef at our hotel for serving up turkey schnitzel to us everyday!) But if you are like me who won't eat any pork or beef, even better! Because, then you will have all the space in your stomach to gorge on the rich cakes (kuchen in German). First up was the famous Sacher Torte. The Original Sacher-Torte was invented by Hotel Sacher and till this day invite long queues of people wanting a slice of Vienna. The original recipe remains a secret, but it is basically a chocolate cake coated with apricot jam, chocolate icing and topped with whipped cream. It certainly doesn't come cheap, but is worth a try. A walk further down will take you to another iconic bakery of Vienna, called "Aida". A popular bakery in Vienna since 1913, Aida today offers mouthwatering cakes, pastries, macaroons and tarts. They also have their own version of the Sacher Torte. They have different branches all over the city and all are done up in pink decor.

A Copenhagen Collar: Achieving Comparable Effort Through Carbon Price Agreements
The global financial crisis proves how unforeseen macroeconomic conditions can affect policies aimed at reducing and stabilizing greenhouse gas emissions. It has made voters uneasy about potential climate policy that could raise energy costs and unemployment. To improve the political stability of any policy agreement emerging from this December's annual meeting on the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Copenhagen, and to ensure the comparability of commitments and ease the inclusion of developing countries, the authors propose that the UNFCCC supplement emissions targets with a price collar. This paper outlines an example that shows that a price collar can have a negligible expected impact on the outcome that matters most for the climate—increasing emissions.
