The Democrats' New Map
posted at 5:42 am on February 28, 2010 by Dafydd ab Hugh
Or, why I am not convinced that either Pelosi or Reid has the votes
The New York Times, of all venues, sculpts the slope the Democrats must scale to summit Mount Reconciliation:
Of the 219 Democrats who initially voted in favor of the House measure, roughly 40 did so in part because it contained the so-called Stupak amendment, intended to discourage insurers from covering abortion….
An additional 39, like Mr. Kratovil, are fiscal conservatives who voted no the first time around. Ms. Pelosi is hoping that she can get some to switch those no votes to yes in favor of Mr. Obama's less expensive measure.
Let's run some numbers, shall we?
The House version of ObamaCare — the Affordable Health Care for America Act (H.R. 3962) — passed on November 7th last year in a vote of 220-215. Ordinarily, 218 Yeas are required to pass a bill in the House; but since that vote, three representatives have left Congress, one of them horizontally. With only 432 current members, the magic number for a majority is 217 (216 is only 50%, which is not a majority).
The three who left are all Democrats who voted for the House version of ObamaCare the first time around: retirees Robert Wexler (FL) and Neil Abercrombie (HI), and John Murtha (PA), who left feet first this month. In addition, Rep. Ahn "Joseph" Cao (R-LA, not yet rated), the only Republican to vote for the bill, has since repudiated that vote and says he will certainly vote against the Senate/reconciliation version of ObamaCare when that comes up for a vote. So Pelosi starts with only 216 of the necessary 217 votes.
We know for certain that unless the Senate agrees in advance to the Stupak Amendment, which bans any and all federal funding of abortion (and even funding of insurance carriers who pay for abortions), Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI, 90%) will also vote against it; he has too much "face" bound up in that prohibition to overlook it. I consider it virtually impossible that the Senate would agree to a Stupak Amendment, so that drops the number of Yeas to 215.
Thus the real question is this: Can Squeaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Haight-Ashbury, 100%) bully enough Democratic former Nays to switch to Yeas so that the total will be two higher than the number of Yeas who switch to Nays? In other words, if 20 of the 40 Stupakers vote Nay on the Senate version, then Pelosi must scrounge up 22 representatives who voted Nay last time to vote Yea instead. Otherwise, she has less than the 217 needed.
Looking ahead, it's hard to see why any representative who voted against ObamaCare before will be persuaded to vote for it this time: The cost differential between the House and Senate plans is negligible; the Senate version doesn't include the "government option," which the House Democrats liked; and in the meantime, voters have made their disgust with the government takeover of health care clear and vivid.
Scott Brown's election to the Massachusetts Senate seat formerly held by Ted Kennedy scared the bejesus out of many representatives, especially those who represent districts that went to John McCain in the 2008 presidential election; many will try to innoculate themselves from the consequences of the last vote by turning thumbs down on ObamaCare this time.
The only real hope Pelosi has is with those Democrats who voted against the bill last year, but who have decided not to run for reelection this year. However, at the moment, there are only three: Reps. John Tanner (D-TN, 89%), Bart Gordon (D-TN, 89%), and Brian Baird (D-WA, 80%). Even if all of them switch, that brings the total only to 218; if two or more representatives flip the other way, from Yea to Nay — two out of the 40 who only voted for the bill because of the Stupak amendment, for example — then Pelosi falls short.
My back of the thumbnail estimate is that at least 20 of the 40 Stupakers vote Nay, while only two of the lame-duck Democrats go the other way (Tanner has already said he will not switch to Yea); that would land the Squeaker into a 200-232 deficit. An AP article confirms this:
In fact, Democrats following the legislation say House Democratic support for the legislation has sunk to 200 votes or less in recent weeks, following the stunning GOP victory in last month's special Massachusetts Senate election and the bill's modest showing in polls.
Where "modest showing" has the tendentious redefinition of "catastrophic collapse." I would guess another five Democratic Yeas vote Nay when it becomes clear the votes aren't there anyway; why go down with a sinking ship?
It's hardly any better on the Senate side, where they must pass the "reconciliation" changes to the Senate bill that (they hope!) will keep some Democratic House members from desperately dog-paddling towards the shore. Majority Leader Harry "Pinky" Reid (D-Caesar's Palace, 70%) is not doing very well, despite only needing a simple majority to pass the package:
Under the Democrats' tentative plans, the House would pass the health care bill approved in December by the Senate, and both chambers would approve a separate package of changes using a parliamentary device known as budget reconciliation.
The tactic is intended to avoid a Republican filibuster, but in the Senate, the majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, faces challenges if he tries to use it. He is having trouble persuading a majority of his caucus to go along.
Despite their gigantic majorities in both chambers, despite a still-personally popular Democratic president who has made this his make-or-break issue, Pelosi, Reid, and the Democratic leadership still can't seem to round up enough Yeas to spit in the voters' faces. Funny, isn't it?
The calculus is fairly simple; AP quotes a couple of members of the House Democratic caucus explaining the problem:
"People who voted 'yes' would love a second bite at the apple to vote 'no' this time, because they went home and got an unpleasant experience" because of their votes, said Rep. Jason Altmire, a moderate Democrat from Pennsylvania. "On the other hand," he added, "I don't know anybody who voted 'no' who regrets it…."
Rep. Gene Taylor, D-Miss., said he chatted at the House gym Friday morning with fellow conservative Democrats and found that Obama's session had produced no new momentum.
"I don't think it made a nickel's worth of difference," he said, adding, "It's fair to say the trend is going against the bill."
I don't believe that Scott Brown's victory alone redrew the Democrats' electoral map; but it definitely shone a spotlight upon it… and any Democrat who plans to run for reelection ignores it at his political peril.

voters have made their disgust with the government takeover of health care clear and vivid
For months I've been pointing out that the majority of the Democrats in both houses of Congress, led by Obama, are completely and willfully ignoring the wishes of the American voting public, and many of the pundits in the MSM have now started noticing this at last, and are calling it a suicide mission.
While the poll numbers are hugely against any form of government takeover of health care, at the same time the Dems have figured out from those numbers that this coming November is shaping up to be a typically historical midterm election with the party in power probably ending up being tossed on their ears due to voter dissatisfaction with their obvious power grab and spending spree.
Which, in and of itself, becomes the motivating factor for ramming through the health care, and possibly the cap & trade, bills. This is the last time for at least a decade that the Dems will have this big a majority in Congress with the White House as well. And once in place, nationalized health care in some small form will give them the toe in the door to expand on it in later years, ultimately achieving the big government control the Dems seek, Euro-style.
They, the Democrat 'leadership', literally don't care what the short term costs will be in terms of careers, etc., because long term they have no other options if they want to remain a viable power broker Inside The Beltway in the future. They look at the decades long impact of FDR's New Deal, and know without a doubt that government controlled health care will have 10 times the long term impact, and with the voting public turning more and more conservative it is literally the only option they can see for gettting the public hooked on someone else paying skyrocketing health bills. Once hooked, future generations of Americans will grow up with that being the 'norm', similar to what Greece is facing now. Which is why the MSM is playing down that disaster and the scandal ridden climate change issues. Keeping those fiascoes off the radar is the only way the progressive factions in the MSM can help the Dems get this short term agenda enacted.
It's mind blowing Twilight Zone stuff, this obsession with absolute power that they have. The only thing that will save us now is for the American voting public to keep up the pressure and not let the Dems and the MSM succeed in fracturing the massive movement against big government control of our lives that has been building. That, and giving the Republicans the power to undo the damage that's been done to-date.

IDOL Ltd. testing
You might figure Team NorthSails Riders finally get a break during christmas time? Well, they don't. Rather than sitting at home by the christmas tree we are constantly working to improve our products. Off-competition time is the right time for our riders to put enhanced focus on testing and developing on the new sails.
Max Rowe (K-20) has evolved to a crucial part of NorthSails' freestyle R&D team. Here he is testing some of the new IDOL.Ltd. prototypes in La Perouse (Maui, Hawaii). Look forward to the new freestyle weapon!
Stay tuned and keep it busy!

I just picked up a 9mm XD subcompact. Heading to the range this Friday. Can't wait!
Printable View
I just picked up a 9mm XD subcompact. Heading to the range this Friday. Can't wait!
Congrats ...safe shooting....JJ
Always! :)
Just got a new XDm 9 for fathers day. I love this gun. love love love this gun.
Got the XDM9 Match kit over the weekend and ran 200 rounds through it. Sweet! Funny thing is that after shooting it and finding it the most accurate gun I own, I'm shooting everything else better! I am so looking forward to putting it to work at USPSA match on Sunday and 3-gun two weeks later!
That is a great gun...your gonna love it!
Congrats., good gun. Enjoy shooting it.
I'm a big XD45 fan - I have no doubt the 9mm is a great shooter.
I was thinking about buying that one and like what I'm hearing
I'm another VERY satisfied XD owner. I bought the compact .45 cal. I expected to not like the 'kick' when it fired, but was pleasantly surprised. Also agree that this model is the most accurate 'out of the box' handgun I've ever owned. [personal opinion here] I think the trigger being so smooth has a dramatic effect on my accuracy. I'm not struggling to pull it and therefore I don't yank it off target.
I was thinking about getting the xd 9mm and I like what I'm seeing
I'm convinced the XD platform is just an all-around winner - an excellent design that allows all sorts of 'spin-offs,' as long as the basic engineering is not changed. I have owned an XD45 Service Model, and presently own the XD45 Compact, and recently purchased the new single-stack subcompact XDs. They have all been 100% reliable with a variety of ammo, have decent triggers that get pretty sweet (for a polymer striker fired pistol) at about 500-1000 rounds fired, and fire to POA straight out of the box.
In my opinion, it is the equal of the Glock, and surpasses it in the way it 'feels.' I have let newbie shooters shoot all of mine, and have yet to find anyone who could not quickly master it well enough to start hitting near the bulls eye with regularity. A couple of them have purchased their own (in 9mm and .40 S&W) and have been well pleased with the decision.
Another very satisfied XD9 owner.I shot several Glocks and some other semi auto offerings and I just personally prefered the XD.Ive got somewhere around 1000rounds and to me it just gets better.
Congrats on the purchase. I also own a XD 9 and love it. With that said a Glock purchase is in the near future. I love my XD and use it for home defense as well as range shooting but, for me, I shoot the glock better. So its not that either gun is better than one another its just personal preference.
Good Luck and Shoot Safe
I have a sub compact and a tactical 9mm XD
Just put a XD 40 3" barrel on layaway excited to pick it up I also want to order a 357 Sig barrel for it to switch back and forth this will sure be a better gun than a Glock 33
I got mine this morning, It looks like a tank! I will test different ammo this sunday
The XD9 is one sweet weapon.... Great shooter and fits my hand beautifully..... I love mine........

On May 23, Tim Russert hosted right-wing pundit and New York Times columnist William Safire on NBC's Meet the Press roundtable, during which Safire misrepresented Senator John Kerry's poll ratings. One week later, Russert hosted Stephen F. Hayes -- staff writer at the Rupert Murdoch-owned conservative magazine The Weekly Standard -- on the May 30 edition of Meet the Press to promote his new book, The Connection: How al Qaeda's Collaboration with Saddam Hussein Has Endangered America (released on June 1 by Murdoch's publishing house HarperCollins). Hayes's book was reviewed in The Washington Post on June 2 by professor and former FBI counterterrorism analyst Matthew A. Levitt: "A constellation of suggestions, however, still is not a convincing argument. 'The Connection' raises several important questions, but it left me unconvinced."
Hayes's book promises to uncover new information about the relationship between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein -- a relationship that Hayes claims stretches back more than a decade. Hayes first promoted this theory in a November 24, 2003, Weekly Standard article titled "Case Closed":
Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein had an operational relationship from the early 1990s to 2003 that involved training in explosives and weapons of mass destruction, logistical support for terrorist attacks, al Qaeda training camps and safe haven in Iraq, and Iraqi financial support for al Qaeda -- perhaps even for Mohamed Atta -- according to a top secret U.S. government memorandum obtained by THE WEEKLY STANDARD.
The memo, dated October 27, 2003, was sent from Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas J. Feith to Senators Pat Roberts and Jay Rockefeller, the chairman and vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Newsweek investigative correspondents Michael Isikoff and Mark Hosenball -- in their November 19 article titled "Case Decidedly Not Closed: The Defense Dept. memo allegedly proving a link between Al Qaeda and Saddam does nothing of the sort" -- discredited the memorandum upon which Hayes based his argument:
A leaked Defense Department memo claiming new evidence of an "operational relationship" between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein's former regime is mostly based on unverified claims that were first advanced by some top Bush administration officials more than a year ago -- and were largely discounted at the time by the U.S. intelligence community, according to current and former U.S. intelligence officials. ... In fact, the tangled tale of the memo suggests that the case of whether there has been Iraqi-Al Qaeda complicity is far from closed.
Similarly, the Defense Department refuted the notion that there is an "operational relationship" between Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. In a November 15, 2003, news release, the Defense Department noted that the memo "was not an analysis of the substantive issue of the relationship between Iraq and al Qaeda, and it drew no conclusions"; and that "news reports that the Defense Department recently confirmed new information with respect to contacts between al Qaeda and Iraq ... are inaccurate."
Hayes's journalistic credibility has been questioned previously. Bill Moyers, host of the PBS program NOW, wrote a letter to the editor of The Weekly Standard in 2002 in response to a Hayes article:
Stephen Hayes opens his attack on me ("PBS's Televangelist," Feb. 25) by claiming that in the PBS specials following September 11 I interviewed, among others, "Cornel West, O.J. attorney Alan Dershowitz, and 'Vagina Monologues' playwright Eve Ensler." He gets it right only once. I have never met or interviewed Alan Dershowitz or Eve Ensler."
Moyers concluded that Hayes's article was "replete with willful misrepresentation, deceitful juxtaposition, and outright error, with a little hypocrisy thrown in for flavor."
On Meet the Press, Russert held up a copy of Hayes's book, which had been plugged on May 28 by The Drudge Report via a link titled "BOOK TAKES ON CONVENTIONAL WISDOM: 'CONNECTION' ARGUES VAST TIES BETWEEN OSAMA AND SADDAM..." that directed readers to an excerpt of Hayes's book in the June 7 issue of The Weekly Standard.
On May 27, The Wall Street Journal cited Hayes in an editorial page article titled "Saddam's Files: New evidence of a link between Iraq and al Qaeda" on May 27:
In his new book, "The Connection," Stephen Hayes of The Weekly Standard puts together all of the many strands of intriguing evidence that the two did do business together. There's no single "smoking gun," but there sure is a lot of smoke.
When confronted by Russert about President George W. Bush's statement that there is no evidence that Saddam Hussein was involved with the September 11 terrorist attacks, Hayes agreed with Bush; yet Hayes still asserted "that one has to consider the fact that he [Saddam Hussein] may have had something to do with it on even a marginal scale."
From the May 30 edition of MSNBC's Meet the Press:
RUSSERT: You have written a book called "The Connection: How al-Qaeda's Collaboration with Saddam Hussein Has Endangered America." The president has gone out of his way to say there's no evidence of Saddam Hussein linked to September 11. What's your thesis?
HAYES: I agree. I don't think -- I think it's too strong to say there's no evidence, but at the same time I think that one has to consider the fact that he may have had something to do with it on even a marginal scale.

The non-stop right wing Republican attack upon any and all ideas proposed by President Obama even led to the uttering of blatant lies by retired General John Sheehan who told a Senate committee the slaughter of thousands of Muslim in the former Yugoslavia was the fault of gay Dutch soldiers. How Sheehan knew specific members of the Dutch military were gay is certainly a question one should be asking. Of course, he did not have a clue, but Republican senators wanted to hear something evil about gays and lesbians in the military. General Sheehan sent an email to the Dutch armed forces admitting the massacre of Muslims "was in o way the fault of individual(gay or straight) soldiers." He wrote retired Dutch General Henk van den Breemen, "I am sorry that my recent public recollection of those discussions of 15 years ago inaccurately reflected your thinking on some specific special social issues in the military."
A group calling itself the Pink Army announced that it will drop a proposed law suit against Sheehan since he has publicly apologized for his idiotic remarks. The real question is why no Republican senator challenged a recollection that made no logical sense!

Hello Men (and sometimes women) of TWiV!
I have read before that the human genome contains the genetic code of several thousand retroviruses. These retroviruses are in an inactive state, and are believed to be the product of infections that have been passed down through the germ line through many generations of humanity. These viral genomes have in effect become incorporated into the human genome and are now a part of us. I am wondering if it would somehow be possible to use some form of restriction enzyme therapy to remove these viral genomes in order to see what effect (if any) it would have on human health - do you think it could be done? If so, what would you predict the effects would be? Are the viruses in any way, shape, or form driving evolution? Or could they be causing damage just by being there?
Once again, I appreciate you taking the time to read this email. I greatly enjoy listening to your podcast, and I apologize if this is an ignorant line of questioning. I started listening to your podcast regularly in November of this year, and have enjoyed it so much I am now trying to catch up. I am currently still in early 2009, but should be completely up to date within the next two months or so. Once again - thank you for all that you do.
P.S. Please tell Alan that I have already taken the listener survey, so if he could please remove the subliminal message from my brain it would be greatly appreciated. I would very much like to stop waking up in the middle of the night with the sudden inexplicable urge to take a survey over the interweb.

Hello TWIV hosts
In TWIV 167 Dr Despommier said that the virus in Contagion is similar to Nipah virus as the virus in the movie is erroneously compared to a bat-pig hybrid. Dr Despommier said abt Nipah as ' ....pigs and bats gathered together in the mangrove'
Nipah viruses arose in Malaysia where pigs in a farm were feeding off bat droppings. The bats in turn, were habitating in nearby fruit orchards. No one would place a pig farm or fruit orchard in a mangrove.
I guess I'm being as nitpicking as Dr Racaniello was on TWIV 167

Dear Twivers,
I was reading a paper on exploring vector immunoprophalysis for HIV and was surprised to hear that the transmission of HIV has been found to be less than 1 infection per 100 heterosexual coital act. When I looked up the reference paper, I found a control in the methods section so amusing that I had to share it with you guys. So, basically, the transmission statistic was based on couples in Uganda with only one spouse positive for HIV (80.4% of the couples reported never using condoms). The point of the study was to follow these couples, monitoring HIV status to evaluate the transmission rate of the virus. After the study was over, they compared the strain of HIV from newly infected spouses with the strain collected from the spouse. Apparently, the authors had to exclude 4 people from the study because their strain of HIV could not have come from their partner. I wonder how each of the 72 couples that underwent seroconversion during the study responded when they saw that in the paper!

Rachel Yankey believes Arsenal can overcome the odds to emulate the 2007 squad and win the Women's Champions League next season.
Laura Harvey's side saw their European dream end for another year as Olympique Lyonnais deservedly progressed to the Final with a 5-2 aggregate victory earlier this month.
The French giants, along with fellow Semi-Finalists Duisburg and Turbine Potsdam, have the backing of a professional set-up and Yankey knows that Arsenal's non-professional status puts them at a disadvantage.
Nonetheless, after qualifying for next season's competition with victory at Barnet in the FA Women's Cup on Sunday, Yankey is confident the new generation can follow in the footsteps of Vic Akers' quadruple-winning side.
"The players and quality we had in the team that won it in 2007 was probably better than the quality we have now," the forward told Arsenal.com. "But there is no reason why we can't step up to that level again.
"It's a changed team from the team that played last season. There are a few players that are new to this team. On reflection of that and starting a new league at a different time, we can be very proud of what we have done [in this year's Champions League].
"We are a semi-professional team but we only train twice a week. The amount of time player can touch the ball is limited and I think that showed [against Olympique Lyonnais].
"The way they passed the ball around and their knowledge of where each other were was far superior to us. That is something that has to get better.
"Even though we are in a semi-professional league it is obvious and evident that they train more often than us, both with each other and on the ball."
The formation of the new Women's Super League is expected to enhance the quality of the women's game in England, though it will remain semi-professional. Yankey has seen first-hand the advantages that professional football can bring during her spell at Fulham and she admits it makes a huge difference.
"Training every day improves your movement, knowledge of where everyone is and your fitness. It just makes it so much easier.
"We need that quality of training more together as team I think."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

Or worse yet, don't even try to retrieve difficult birds. We've all seen it. Or, they have a dog and it's not trained well enough to get the job done. My dogs don't find them all, just ask Sharkbait. As a serious dog guy and duck hunter, it's a pet peeve of mine. Same thing in the pheasant fields. I have hunting scenerios that don't involve decoys, boats or even duck calls. But every hunt has at least one dog along.
It sounds like you're making an honest effort to retrieve your birds

Former Softball Stars Receive Hall of Fame Honors
June 4, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – Former University of Kentucky softball stars Meagan Aull, Rachel Riley and Brooke Marnitz, who each rank top 10 in numerous career records, have recently been named into Kentucky state hall of fames for their high school softball accomplishments.
Aull was a member of the Kentucky Softball Coaches Association Hall of Fame Class of 2012, while Riley is a KSCA Hall of Fame Class of 2013 member and will be inducted later this summer. Marnitz received high honors earlier this week as she was named one of 11 members to the Dawahares/Kentucky High School Coaches Association Hall of Fame Class of 2014.
Aull and Riley are the only two players during sixth-year head coach Rachel Lawson's tenure to be inducted into the KSCA Hall of Fame, while Marnitz is the only other four-year UK player to be inducted into the KSCA Hall of Fame. Marnitz was a member of the 2008 class.
Aull had a great career at Owensboro Catholic High School, earning Kentucky Miss Softball honors in 2007 on top of countless other awards, including All-America honorable mention honors and first-team All-State honors. During her time at Kentucky, Aull earned Southeastern Conference honors and National Fastpitch Coaches Association honors, while also being named the 2011 SEC Scholar Athlete of the Year and 2011 Capital One Academic All-American. A four-year letterwinner from 2008-11, Aull ended her career with 220 consecutive starts in centerfield, including a game-tying solo homer in the bottom of the seventh to ignite a come-from-behind win that propelled UK into NCAA Super Regionals for the first time in school history. Aull ended her UK career with 71 stolen bases, which ranks second most ever in school history, while 26 stolen bases in 2009 is third most in a single season in school history.
Riley helped Greenwood High School to back-to-back state championships her junior and senior seasons, posting over 45 wins in the circle during those title runs. The native of Bowling Green, Ky., was named Most Valuable Player of the KHSAA State Tournament twice during her six-year letterwinner campaign, while she holds school records in singles, doubles, walks, sacrifice hits, batting average, assists, fielding percentage and strikeouts. Riley also had a prolific collegiate career with Kentucky, earning NFCA All-Region honors. Riley, who played from 2009-12, ended her UK playing career ranked fifth in appearances, fourth in innings pitched, seventh in games started, third in ERA, fourth in opponent batting average, fourth in strikeouts, third in wins and tied for third in saves. The best game of Riley's career came against WKU, where she threw the second ever perfect game in school history and had six RBI at the plate – which tied the most in school history.
A Lexington native, Marnitz is one of the best offensive players to every play for the UK program, sitting top 10 all-time in many career honors. At the conclusion of her career in 2007, Marnitz ranked fourth in career batting average at .320, sixth in doubles with 30, second in career walks with 77, fifth in runs scored with 106, first in home runs with 31, first in slugging percentage at .575, fifth in total bases with 305 and fourth in assists with 364. Marnitz's 2007 season is still one of the best ever as she hit .399 with 21 home runs, 61 RBI, 42 runs scored, a .895 slugging percentage and 137 total bases. Her home run, RBI, slugging percentage and total bases totals from 2007 still rank first on UK's single-season list. Marnitz was a NFCA All-Region and an All-SEC honoree in 2007. In high school, Marnitz was a standout at Paul Laurence Dunbar, being named Miss Softball in 2003 on top of a two-time Regional Player of the Year.

Modern parents have discovered table manners & the NYT is on it!
posted at 12:47 pm on December 28, 2012 by Mary Katharine Ham
One of my favorite things about reading the New York Times and other liberal publications is how they frequently present age-old ideas we've all known about for centuries as new trends. For instance, sustainable eating? That's what the rest of us call a garden. Co-parenting? That's what the rest of us know as a two-parent family. Localvore charcuterie? Where I come from, that's always been called bacon.
Now, the NYT presents the brave new world of…teaching your children table manners. I can't decide if it's encouraging that parents actually want to do this or depressing that they've just discovered it might be a good idea and are now outsourcing it because they're too wimpy to do it on their own. An account from a San Francisco restaurant:
The place is Chenery Park, a restaurant with low lights, cloth napkins, $24 grilled salmon and "family night" every Tuesday. Children are welcome, with a catch: They are expected to behave — and to watch their manners, or learn them. Think upscale dining with training wheels.
Chenery Park has many allies in the fight to teach manners to a new generation of children. Around the country, there are classes taught by self-appointed etiquette counselors — Emily Posts for a new age — delivering a more decentralized and less formal approach to teaching manners than in years past. A few restaurants, like Chenery Park, and high-end hotels set aside space and time for families.
These etiquette experts say that new approaches are needed because parents no longer have the stomach, time or know-how to play bad cop and teach manners. Dinnertime has become a free-for-all in many households, with packed family schedules, the television on in the background and a modern-day belief of many parents that they should simply let children be children.
What I do know is I love the owner of this restaurant and I pray he doesn't get some litigious parent suing him over taking a harsh tone with their little snowflakes:
During a recent family night at Chenery Park, Joseph Kowal, an owner, roamed among the regulars and newcomers, saying hello and occasionally playing parental ally. He's got a twinkle in his eye but a steely commitment to having children — even if they're not etiquette role models — at least sit politely and not scream or throw food.
"Some parents will say, 'Uncle Joe's going to come up here, and he's going to be cross with you,' " Mr. Kowal said. "They use that to their advantage." He recalled one child who wouldn't settle down, and he threatened to tape the child's mouth. The child told him to go ahead and try.
"I went to my office, got some blue painter's tape, came back and ripped a piece off," he said. The kid piped down. "The parents looked at me like, 'We're going to try that at home.' "
So, Uncle Joe is what used to be known as a normal parent. The NYT goes on to wrestle with what it is about Uncle Joe's restaurant that helps children behave. The reporter settles on a version of the broken-window theory of criminology. Basically, because the place is nice and orderly, people are more likely to behave in that setting. I'll buy some of that— my brothers and I were certainly more likely to behave when out in public or at a friend's house than around our rough-and-tumble table at home. But what the paper misses is that Uncle Joe's expectations for the children, which they never get from their good-cop parents, might have something to do with it.
I'm in favor of modern parents teaching their kids this stuff in pretty much any way they're willing to do it, but if you're unable to play bad cop long enough to teach your kid not to throw food at a public table, you're gonna end up outsourcing pretty much all of parenting. The teenage and adult years for said snowflakes aren't likely to be great for the rest of us who have to be around them.
At any rate, an etiquette class can run parents between $300 and $1,200. There, your children will learn that manners aren't about decency and respect but about building one's toddler "brand."
"Say the words 'manners' or 'etiquette' to kids these days, and they run the other direction," she said. She prefers teaching the children that they are "building the brand called 'you.' "
"People don't want to eat with someone whose plate looks like a science project," she tells the children in her workshops. "If you want to be invited back on a play date," she explains, be polite.

The Oakland Raiders officially signed Michael Palardy on Thursday. The kicker/punter will be the fifth former Vol on the Oakland roster, playing under fellow VFL, general manager Reggie McKenzie.
Signed my first NFL contract yesterday with the Oakland Raiders! #RaiderNation pic.twitter.com/EcJdrhQkCf-- Michael Palardy (@mpalardy1) June 5, 2014
The left-footed kicker appeared in 46 games over four seasons for the Volunteers, seeing action at kicker and punter. As a kicker, Palardy connected on 37-of-50 (74.0 percent) field goal attempts and 109-of-115 (94.8 percent) extra-point attempts for 220 points. As a punter, Palardy totaled 117 punts for 5,024 yards (42.9 avg.) with 50 punts downed inside the 20-yard line. The Coral Springs, Fla., native also posted 224 kickoffs for 13,843 yards and 50 touchbacks.
He was honored with various accolades during his senior season: 2013 ESPN.com All-SEC First Team, 2013 SEC Coaches Second Team All-SEC Kicker, 2013 AP All-SEC Honorable Mention Punter. He was also a 2013 Ray Guy Semifinalist.
With Oakland, Palardy joins former Tennessee teammates tight end Mychal Rivera, wide receiver Denarius Moore and lineman Jarrod Shaw. The Raiders also feature former Vols' linebacker Kevin Burnett. With five Vols on the roster, it is the most of any NFL team.

As larger pharmaceutical companies have reduced focus on discovery and early development of antibacterials, smaller biotech companies have taken on a larger role in these earliest stages of antibacterial development, later licensing or selling the compound to the pharmaceutical company to complete development. Although this model has helped to partially resuscitate a diminishing antibacterial pipeline, is it the most effective model for the development of new drugs? Participants outline the advantages and pitfalls associated with this model as well as other proposed models for drug development and will also discuss what new drugs are currently in this pipeline. * Gary Noel, Johnson and Johnson, North Caldwell, NJ, United States * Ursula Theuretzbacher, Center for Anti-Infective Agents, Vienna, Austria

Staff Manual
>> Return to Staff Manual Homepage <<
Appendix M WITTENBERG EMERGENCY CLOSING PROCEDURES AND POLICIES
Closing Procedures
For all weather-related and/or emergency situations that require the university to close, the following procedures will be followed:
1. The provost, in consultation with the vice president for finance and administration, in consultation with the chief of police and the assistant vice president of physical plant, will make the determination as to whether to declare a university closing. A weather-related closing will only be implemented under severe and extreme weather conditions, including when the Clark County Sheriff's department has declared a level 3 Snow Emergency.
2. After the decision to close has been made, the Office of University Communications will place a closing message on the university's homepage. An e-mail will also be sent to faculty and staff, and a broadcast message will be sent through the campus voice mail system, which can be accessed by calling 327-7599. Please know that this communication method serves as the official notification of a closing.
3. The Office of University Communications will also inform the public via the media. Announcements related to closings typically appear on the following television and radio stations, and serve as your signal to check your voicemail, e-mail or the university's Web site:
WDTN/TV Channel 2 - Dayton
WKEF/TV Channel 22 - Dayton
WRGT/TV Channel 45 - Dayton
WHIO/TV Channel 7 - Dayton
WCMH/TV – Channel 4 – Columbus
WHIO/AM 1290 (also on FM 99.1, 95.7, 95.3)
4. The Police and Security Department will send a closing message via the text messaging system.
5. If regular day classes are canceled, all School of Community Education (SCE) classes will also be cancelled. If a storm develops later in the day while classes are in session, the dean of the SCE may elect to cancel evening classes. That decision will be made by 4 p.m., and the SCE dean is responsible for communicating that decision to all SCE students and faculty.
6. Other departments with operations involving external groups are responsible for communicating the closing to their respective constituents. For example, Admission and Advancement should notify scheduled visitors.
Closing-Related Policies
1. When the university is closed, such activities as music and theatre performances, intramural activities, club meetings, athletic practices etc. are generally cancelled. If an activity is NOT cancelled, the schedule will be posted on the university's website.
2. Generally, the fitness center, HPERC, Benham-Pence Student Center, and Thomas Library will remain open although hours may be limited. Student employees in these areas should consult with their supervisor to find out if they should report to work.
3. The determination as to whether to hold athletic-related events rests with the Department of Athletics. Information related to the cancellation of athletic contests, if necessary, will appear on the university's Web site.
4. Employees who are scheduled to work but do not work due to a declared university closing, will be paid according to the hours they were scheduled to work that day. In other words, you will not suffer a loss in pay as a result of the closing.
5. Employees who are on paid leave (ex. vacation, FMLA), will have that leave time reinstated for the declared university closing.
6. Employees who are required to work to maintain essential or necessary services on the declared university closing day will receive their regular rate of pay for the hours normally worked plus a comparable amount of pay or equivalent time off computed at their regular hourly rate for the hours worked. Essential services include police & security, switchboard, grounds crew, residential coordinators and other services as defined by each department in consultation with the respective vice president.
7. Faculty and staff members should use their own best judgment to determine whether the road conditions in their area are safe enough to travel to work. When weather conditions make it impossible for an employee to report for work during a day when the university remains open, staff members are expected to promptly advise their respective supervisor, and faculty should inform their classes. Staff may make up the hours within the same pay period or use a day of accrued vacation or a personal leave day.

I am sure that we can get this resolved for you and any other players missing any Sidekicks or items by submitting a ticket to our support team: here. Once done please share it with me: here so that I can follow up on them.
Thank you and I hope this will be resolved in no time.

In the mean time, try closing Wakfu completely and relaunching the game, that can sometimes make missing sidekicks reappear after it looks like you lost them. But be sure to file a ticket regardless so they have more info to go on in tracking down the bug.

I do wonder how problems of such manner even appear, hah

I must say, while it's attack power and range leave much to be desired, it's still a fun support./tank, and it does take Resist in copious amounts, which is really fun on the following turn, when my Drhellzerker granny attacks. Perhaps adding a little glyph to show you when you can toss an ally, but other than that I like it a lot.

Discussion in 'Fantasy Sports Central' started by round, Apr 6, 2010.
No doubt. I finally agree with Darth on something.
I think I finally picked up a win again. Against a top team too. Thankfully, Montero is on the mend, which is good because Bengie Molina has been atrocious. If I can get my pitchers all on the same page for a week, I have a pretty decent team, mid to upper tier. Now the hard work of climbing the rankings begins.
I have the opposite problem.... my just love my pitching its been more then solid ever week but the 1st... Now my batters, there so hit and miss, 2 weeks ago they all showed up and if i got that kind of effort all the time, we could just hand me the trophy right now, to bad more times then not they all say let the pitchers save us. I revisit the worst week of my season this week, so I hope for a bitter better results then the 2-7 week I had against LLL in week 1.
See, that is how you start off the week. By getting a win from your FA acquisition, 7-0 (now 8 game winner) Carlos Silva. Of course, performances like this are wasted playing DiaperTime.
Yeah, you're right about that one. The only trash talking I can do is posting my team's standings, because it's garbage. P.S. Nice pickup of Marcum. I logged on to grab him a few weeks ago and you had just beat me to it.
Man, I just can't catch a break. I benched Theriot this week because he was benched and looked like he was going to lose his starting spot and all he does today is go 2 for 3, score 4 runs and steal 2 bases. The guy I replaced him with went 0 for 4. I hate fantasy baseball! I'm putting my team up for sale on Ebay.
How is it that I'm in 8th place? Bad matchups. Totals out of ten teams: Runs 5th Home runs 9th RBI-2nd Stolen Bases-2nd Average-2nd Wins-5th Saves-3rd Strikeouts-6th ERA-6th Whip-9th Seems like I should be more in the middle of the pack. I suck...but not as bad as it looks.
My team has really frustrated me. I drafted some serious offense, but these guys have been terrible. Texiera...sucks McCann...sucks Werth....sucks Pedroia....sucks Holliday....sucks
Albert Pujols is on the block. I am willing to trade the #1 O-Ranked, now 18 ranked on the season (still pretty damn good) 1st baseman for a top 60 (current overall ranked) and healthy 2nd, 3rd baseman or shortstop. If you feel first base could be better, or you have space for Pujols as your UTIL batter, this is a pretty good pickup. Unfortunately for me, Joey Votto is putting up Pujols esque numbers and I really need help in the infield, since I have other decent bats I can play at UTIL other than Pujols. Let me know. Also, if you really want Pujols, I will listen to trades for an elite OF or Pitcher, but the player has to be top 25 to near-match Pujols top 18 ranking.
Microwaves made a lot of moves this week, executing two BLOCKBUSTER deals, sending Pujols to Let's Play Two and CC Sabathia to The Machine. Also, free agents Jonathan Niese and Aubrey Huff were added to the roster. Niese, a pitcher with a 5-0 record in his last 5 decisions, and Huff, one of the best combo 1B/OF in the league. While we are sad to see Sabathia and Pujols go, particularly since they helped pound the living daylights out of Lets Play Two this week, our team is much deeper, and poised to build on the success of the last 7 days to make a run into playoff contention.
yea whats with that... i help out a fellow league memeber.... and the player joining my team beats the living tar out of me, and because the player i sent to him in a 2 for 1 deal was coming of the dl i couldn't even adjust my roster without dropping somebody but i think the trade made us both better for the playoffs, and my players have long memories.... we shall have our revenge.
Save Pujols until you need a big week, then trade him. He was seriously under performing this year until I bought him a bus ticket! lol
Yea, it's important for Rascoe to have a strong team as he watches the playoffs from the sideline.
I am going to move into the middle of the pack record wise after this week. One more good week, and I can break out and start solidifying a playoff spot. This league has a couple front runners, and then just about everyone else is clumped together around .500.
Your team should be ready to spring to the front now that you got rid of that dead weight Pujols....
He wasn't dead weight, but he was my best trade chip to get a really good SS. Pujols and Votto have had almost identical production and Votto missed some games this year. SS, 2B and 3B, Catcher are much harder positions to fill than 1B and OF. I mean, I just picked up Huff, who is a combo 1B/OF who is a top 50 player on the season. Yes, I probably scooped some people, but those gems are out there all season long.
yea i have been looking for a catcher since day one.... mine is ok, but would love a "good" one, i was really startin to think getting 3 solid SS's was going to be a mistake but finally was able to get something in return for 1 of them, hasn't hurt that most the season I have been able to bury one of them on the dl though.
I stupidly drafted Votto and Pujols, but it did give me some trade fodder. I know some people don't like the trade, but thats tough for them. I did what I needed to do to improve my club. Plus, Rollins is a Philly, so I can probably trade him to Darth for all of his best non-Phillies.
I noticed that Yahoo is posting the All-Star game stats to our fantasy players as the game is in progress. I know they will be erased by tomorrow, but it is kind of fun to see how many All-Star players each team has in its lineup. Actually, as of the 7th inning, 8 of the 10 teams in our league has either 2 or 3 guys that have played in the game so far. One team (Rascoe) has no players into the game and another team (yours truly) has 6 players that have played.
My Phillies had a spot of bad luck in the first half of the season, but we are primed for a second half run at the playoffs!!! I'm pumped!

A SB from a winery new to me. Not an 'in your face wine'. It is restrained but still showing some green pepper notes and new mown grass. Classy and was enjoyed so quickly without much time for reflection hence brevity of this note. (89 pts.)

Wildscapes Workshop Offered for San Antonio Homeowners
SAN ANTONIO — An April 22 workshop here will arm homeowners with knowledge and resources to help solve a growing wildlife problem—how human development often removes wildlife habitat, causing a loss of native plants that provide numerous benefits for people and the natural environment.
"Homeowners are often left with very little on their homestead other than their home–if they are lucky maybe a tree, a few shrubs (often not even native to the area) and some turfgrass," said Judit Green, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department urban wildlife biologist in San Antonio.
Green said landowners can make a positive difference in several ways. First, they can work with developers and builders from the beginning and insist on saving valuable plants, trees and shrubs on their new property. "Put it in the contract and place a value on the plants in case they are damaged during development," Green suggested. She suggests using a local plant field guide to learn what beauty and wildlife value they might offer in the coming years before selectively removing any.
Homeowners who have purchased a house well after development has taken place can select regionally appropriate native Texas plants at local plant nurseries and create a garden that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also uses less water and is better for local wildlife.
"Focus on plants that offer some type of food, such as a berry, seed, acorn or nectar that will provide for birds, butterflies, mammals and other wildlife," Green said. "Once many of these plants mature, they may also offer nesting and shelter opportunities for wildlife too."
The TPWD Urban Wildlife Office in San Antonio offers various workshops throughout the year for homeowners and landowners to learn how to manage their property for wildlife, be it small or large.
The next workshop, focusing on the Texas Wildscapes native plant landscaping for wildlife program, will be held from 8:30 a.m.-2 p.m. April 22 at the Palo Alto College Performing Arts Building auditorium. The workshop will cover ways to use drought-tolerant native plants that attract birds, butterflies and other wildlife to the backyard.
The cost of the workshop is $20 per person, or $35 for two people, which includes lunch. Walk-ins are welcome, but pre-registration is required to be eligible for door prizes. Call (210) 688-6444 to pre-register or to get more information or see the TPWD Web site for a complete schedule of landowner workshops and field days across Texas.

William Patten has been a familiar face around Museum Victoria and its galleries for a decade. In June 2010 he began a new role as the Indigenous Community Engagement Officer on the Bunjilaka redevelopment project.
Will first began at MV as a customer service officer at Melbourne Museum upon its opening in 2000. With a background in horticulture, he was initially attracted by the Forest Gallery. "One of the areas I love is indigenous plants - the plants themselves and their food and medicinal properties," said Will. Since then he's also worked at the Immigration Museum and Scienceworks and in temporary roles as a gardener, a presenter in the Discovery Program, exhibition installer and was even the museum's mailman. "All those diverse roles showed me just how many pockets of expertise there are here," said Will. "I love the museum. It's a place that is what you make it, that's what gives me the urge to walk out my front door and come here every day."
In his new role, he is coordinating the community consultations about the new exhibitions for Bunjilaka which are scheduled to open in 2012. "The most exciting part of it for me personally is travelling round and getting out into the community." He believes that the local Indigenous networks connected to Bunjilaka are just as important as the physical exhibition. After a month in the job, he said, "I'm starting to understand who everyone is and how we can work together in collaboration." His work will formalise the existing local networks and the way the museum communicates with them to ensure ongoing relationships.
Already active in formal Indigenous organisations, such as the Victorian Indigenous Men's Network, Will credits his strong sense of community to his family background. "I'm from a strong, proud family that revolves around culture, a culture where you understand your place within your community. My family has been active politically. I'm part of the Cooper and Patten family."
The first round of consultations in late 2009 introduced the project to the Indigenous community around Victoria and ask what they'd like to see in the new exhibitions. The next stage builds upon that and will work closely with Traditional Owners of country, objects and culture. "Everything's intertwined," explained Will. "All Indigenous people are Traditional Owners in one way or another, so I'm talking to everybody." He is excited about new ways to work with communities, such as online media, and the idea of Indigenous communities participating in the conservation of cultural material through workshops on how to store and handle precious objects.
Will described Bunjilaka's importance for Victorian Aboriginal people. "They will walk into this place and feel a sense of belonging. They're walking in and seeing family. I want it to be a meeting place – you'd feel like this is a live, community building and know that there was going to be someone there you know and haven't seen in ages."

this is Dakota as a pup....
Opps almost forgot about Stella your bearded dragon.....
Nice dogs and reptile. :smt023 It's funny how small they look as pups, huh? :mrgreen:
It goes by so fast, next thing you know your training them not to chew your shoes and piss on the floors..... awwwww:rolleyes:
My brother in law has an American Bulldog named Disel that chews baseboards, eats holes in the drywall:smt104, trys to get in the pantry by eating through the bifold closet doors and, my favorite, eats his own poop while its still hot off the press:smt039. Your right, I shouldnt complain about old shoes.lol
I have two GSP's. That has got to be the most disgusting thing they do. I had heard at one time the American Indians supposedly kept dogs around to do just that. Clean up their droppings, uuuggghhhh.
I keep mine in kennels outside and will go out every few hours to make sure I scoop the poop to prevent this.
Makes me sick typing about it.
dakota looks like he's ready for business!
I have an American Bulldog named Max! And I can't keep him from eating the dishtowels. No prob with drywall or baseboards. I had a Huskey how would do that.
luckly my american bulldog only chews on this plastic bone we got her, but she chews on it non stop.
Great looking dogs! Our year and 1/2 old springer spaniel, Rossi (after the ski company, not the gun, sorry :rolleyes:) likes to rip off the screens in order to get into the house when no one is home. Last summer he literally tore off every screen on the ground floor:watching:
I am missing all the screens on both floors...I feel your pain... :)
Those are pretty dogs
Your dogs are really cool, I wish I could get a dog, cant have them in college...


text: I just bought a used Ruger P95. It came with adjustable fiber optic sights. Can anyone recommend a good affordable shoulder holster that it will fit with the larger sights. I am not interested in anything for tactical or concealed carry purposes, but I guess that would be an added bonus.


text: Try GeorgiaPacking.org. It lays out all the specifics. I am just up 985 from you and serve as a reserve Deputy with the S.O. up here. Open carry is permitted by legal adults in Georgia. With open carry you loose the advantage of carry unless you are an officer or deputy is carrying for protection. It serves to upset the general public at times and can cause some random questions by the local constabulary. Get a permit. It is valid proof that you have been "checked out" and tell an officer/deputy that you are carrying if stopped. You don't have to but surprises with weapons are not productive for anyone. You sound very responsible and I am sure you will take the time to research the issues and train to carry responsibly. Just think what would have happened to Brian Nichols if the general populace carried and was trained to use the weapon.

Between the two. I would have to say Glock 19.
Rugers are fine guns and I love there wheel guns but the material they use in their (poly) guns is not polymer persay. But some kind of fiberglass resin compound and it is like trying to shoot a Teflon coated grip for me. I can put (and have) a death grip on a Ruger and still can not keep it from slipping in my hands. Normal Poly pistols like Glock, XD, XDm, Wathers P99, etc I can shoot all day and not have a problem, and for that reason I vote Glock 19.
Let me recommend another gun. It is heavier than either listed because it is a metal frame gun. But it is a quality dependable pistol.
Bersa UC 9mm Pro/Firestorm Mini 9mm, they are the same pistol, made by Bersa. Firestorm is just a branded model for the US.
This is the Firestorm, the person that took the picture did not wipe it down very well before taking the picture.
Bersa Thunder UC 9 Pro, off the Eagle Imports web sight.
Note the trigger guard. They use to come with different grips but it looks like they have changed it so they are the same.
Same gun so much you can take any part off one and use it on the other. You should be able to find this pistol in the upper three hundreds or lower 4s

Calf's birth adds excitement to Deerfield Fair
By JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent | September 29. 2013 8:04PM

Surrounded by several dozen fair-goers who jockeyed for a good position to capture the birth on camera, Brigadoon and her owners tried to ignore all the attention and focused on making sure it was a successful delivery inside one of the fair's cow barns.
"Obviously, she didn't make it (to her due date)," said Katie Downs, who helped with the birth and whose father, Jim Downs, owns Downs Farms of Loudon and Gilmanton Iron Works.
"There's a cow having a calf!" excited spectators told others who wondered what all the fuss was about.
After about two hours of calving, Brigadoon delivered a healthy female calf at exactly 6:45 p.m.
The crowd remained calm in the minutes after the birth, anxiously awaiting a sign that all was well.
The boy didn't know that the calf was just fine, and moments later, it became clear that the birth was a success.
Applause erupted from the crowd of smiling fair-goers, many of whom had never witnessed a cow giving birth.
The calf took her first steps about two hours after the birth and things went well for mom and baby Saturday night.
Brigadoon participated in her first show at the fair on Thursday, but she spent Sunday resting with her baby, which had not yet been named.
Calves have been born at the fair before, but farmers said it doesn't happen all that often.
For Downs, Saturday night's experience was just another day in the life of a farmer.
