We now know the official cause of death of the British patient found dead in a stairwell at San Francisco General Hospital 17 days after she disappeared from her hospital room.
The city's chief medical examiner says 57-year-old Lynne Spalding died from probable electrolyte imbalance, which is essentially dehydration, and delirium, which is known as clinical sepsis.
DOWNLOAD: Lynne Spalding's Medical Examiner's Report
The report says Spalding was originally in the hospital due to complications of ethanolism, which is another term for chronic alcoholism. A chemical imbalance due to alcoholism led to her death, the coroner has determined.
Haig Harris, an attorney representing Spalding's family, said he is angry and upset over finding about the examiner's report through the media. He said the report has no credibility and called it incomplete.
"How can they say they conducted an examination of a body they haven't found yet? This is bizzare," Harris said, referring to an autopsy reported on Oct. 6 when Spalding's body was found two days later on Oct. 8.
Harris, who also is calling for a grand jury investigation, said alcoholism has nothing to do with why Spalding died.
"She was out there in the elements and she died of either starvation or dehydration," he said. "This report would seem to say dehydration. They don't have to put secondary to a history of alcoholism."
David Perry, a family spokesman who knew Spalding for six years, said he had been pressing for the medical examiner report's release for weeks. He also denied that Spalding ever had an alcohol problem.
"Lynne was certainly not an alcoholic nor was she in any program that I was aware of,'' he said.
Spalding was admitted to the hospital for treatment of a bladder infection on Sept. 19. She disappeared two days later. On Oct. 8, her body was found in a locked, rarely used hospital stairwell.
The medical examiner's report does not specify when Spalding died but noted she was "deceased for some days before being found" in the stairwell. Her death is considered accidental.
According to the report, Spalding's dead body was clad in street clothes when it was discovered -- including a black-and-white jacket, a black top, black pants, and a pair of black boots. There were no signs of injury.
An exact time of death was not determined.
Perry said he was disappointed that no time of death was released.
"The only issue is did she die on Sept. 21 or sometime later,'' he said. "If the answer is she died after Sept. 21, then her family and friends feel that Lynne Spalding was killed through the neglect and malfeasance of San Francisco General Hospital and the San Francisco Sheriff's Department.''
In a statement released Friday, hospital spokesman Tristan Cook said a number of new measures had been put into place after Spalding's death, including daily stairwell checks and new training for security staff.
"Everyone here at San Francisco General is shocked and saddened by Ms. Spalding's loss,'' Cook said. "We have been doing everything we can to learn the facts and to ensure that it never happens again.''
Just how Spalding ended up in the stairwell has never been fully explained. Last month, the San Francisco Sheriff's Department announced staffing changes following Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi's admission of mistakes made by the department in the handling of Spalding's disappearance.
An attorney for Spalding's family claimed that sheriff's deputies "did not conduct a thorough search" despite requests to search the medical center for the missing patient.

GSA Approves AT&T to Operate on the ACES Contract
July 12, 2000
Contact: Bill Bearden (202) 501-1231
Washington, DC - The U.S. General Services Administration today announced that AT&T has received interim approval to operate on the Access Certificates for Electronic Services (ACES) contract. The ACES contract is managed by the Office of Information Security in GSA's Federal Technology Service.
ACES is intended to provide identification, authentication, and non-repudiation via the use of digital signature technology as a means for individuals and business entities to be authenticated when accessing, retrieving, and submitting information with the government. It is a key initiative in assisting the agencies' response to the Government Paperwork Elimination Act and the recently signed Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act. Each industry partner is required to undergo a certification and accreditation process on their ACES systems prior to receiving authority to issue digital signature certificates under this contract. AT&T has completed the process and has received interim approval to operate. Final approval will be granted within approximately six months, once AT&T demonstrates its continuing compliance in the operational environment.
"Attaining this approval fulfills another major milestone in the ACES program. We congratulate AT&T on its achievement," said David J. Barram, GSA Administrator.
Digital Signature Trust received its interim approval to operate in April and the remaining industry partner, Operational Research Consultants, continues to work through its certification and accreditation processes and is expected to receive approval within the near future.
Additional information on ACES is available by calling Helen Chapman on (202) 205-9639 or on the web site at http://www.gsa.gov/aces. For contract specific information, contact Jon D. Faye at (202) 708-6099.

Hi All,
I have recently become pregnant and I am completely addicted to the Wal-Mart alternative for Crystal-Lite, the Classic Sunrise flavor, which contains aspartame. I drink about 5 bottles a day of the stuff. I heard that this may be harmful for my unborn. Have you guys heard anything like that?

I have read different controversial articles on the additive aspartame.
Here is a great article on the additive by Mercola.
As a family of 7 we avoid aspartame at all costs.
Here are a few alternatives to fruit drinks....maybe you can try them and let us know how you like them.
You can add any combination of these fruits and herbs to a mason jar or bottle of water.
If you like sweet water, add a spoon of morena sugar (found at walmart).
2-3 cut up strawberries
3-4 mint leaves
watermelon chunks
pineapple chunks
cucumber slices
rosemary sprigs
canteloupe slices
Try any 2 or 3 and it will be divine and much healthier for you and your baby.
If you like cold...add some ice cubes.
Let us know what your favorite mix is.

Washington Park Zoo has left nary a trace
Published May 29, 2011
Go there now and you'll barely see a trace of it remaining. Maybe a sweep of terrain, certainly a few footpaths that appear to follow the same route as they did a half century ago. No, there is almost no hint that the Washington Park Zoo ever even existed on the southwest corner of the park along Vliet Street.

Greeneville, Tenn. - Brevard scored 17 of the first 22 points in the contest, but the Pioneers built an eight point halftime lead in closing out the season sweep over the Tornados, 66-50.
Three different Brevard (3-19, 2-10 SAC) hit three-pointers as the Tornados surged to a 12 points lead in the first seven minutes of the game, but Tusculum (8-12, 5-7 SAC) rallied behind nine first half points by Neal Spinks to take the lead with 3:49 left in the first half, and the Pioneers led the rest of the way in taking the win in Pioneer Arena on Saturday.
Darius Moose led all scorers with 16 points, as the reigning SAC Player of the Week was 6-for-8 from the floor and pulled down six rebounds as the Tornados shot 41.0 percent (16-39) from the floor in the loss. Gaither Hendrix added 10 points, while Michael Gist provided a standout defensive effort in the game with four blocked shots and two steals off the bench.
Justin Steigerwald led five Tusculum players in double-digits with 14 points, going 6-for-6 from the free throw line, while Spinks closed out the contest with 12 points in 16 minutes for the Pioneers. Tommy Klempin and Kevin Vest scored 11 points apiece, while Darius Carter added 10 points as Tusculum shot 48.0 percent (24-50) from the floor in the game.
Moose and Drew Schauss connected on three-pointers on Brevard's first two shots of the game and Hendrix added a trey of his own at the 15:53 mark as the Tornados jumped out the gates on fire, scoring on seven of their first nine possessions in building a 17-5 lead after a Moose layup with 13:17 remaining in the half.
A three-pointer by Vest knocked the lead back to nine, but a pair of free throws by Gist extended the lead back to 11 with 12:39 left in the half. Carter answered with a three-pointer on the next Tusculum possession, sparking a 27-8 run over the final 12:11 of the half as the Pioneers held the Tornados three-pointers by both Gerel Simmons and Dominique Pickett, and a Hendrix jump shot for the remainder of the period as Tusculum went into the break with the 35-27 lead.
Tusculum scored the first four points of the second half as the Pioneers lead expanded into double-digits on a pair of free throws by Klempin and a jumper by Daniel O'Conner as Tusculum went up 39-27 with 18:33 to play. Schauss brought the Tornados back to within single digits from the free throw line, hitting three of four from the charity stripe to put the game at 41-32 less than two minutes later.
The Pioneers would go up by as many as 17 in the second half, building a 58-41 lead with 8:42 remaining in the contest on a layup by Vest. The Tornados battled back, going on a 9-2 run capped by a layup on the fast break by Jermichael Tanner to cut the lead back to within 10 at 60-50 with 2:39 to play, but Tusculum closed out the game from the free throw line in recording the 66-50 South Atlantic Conference victory.
Brevard remains on the road in South Atlantic Conference play as they travel to Salisbury, N.C. to take on Catawba College on Wednesday, February 8th. Tipoff between the Tornados and the Indians in Goodman Gymnasium is set for 8 p.m.

View the designs in Magazine 50 and also access our members exclusive digital edition, as well as a video of the season's collection. Autumn Winter 2011 is set to be the season of total knits, with heavily layered looks contrasting with ultra feminine and elegant shapes. Chunky, natural, soft wool and alpaca blends feature alongside beautiful colour rich wool twists and silk and mohair blends, hinting of floral and alpine inspiration.
The Spring/Summer 2014 season looks to two opposing directions, one heavenly and future facing, the other grounded and ancient in its appeal. We see a mix of delicate pastel lace designs, bold and beautiful stripes and inspiring colour blended stripes, rustic textures and handcrafted artisan crochet. We see inspiration taken from Moorish tile art, Antique floral lace patterns and geographical patterning that can be found in rock formations. Rowan is showcasing three stories to reflect these major trends: Clarity, Legacy and Essentials.
2013 is the perfect season for Rowan as knitwear sits centre stage of the fashion world creating the drama for the season head. Many of the catwalk designers have drawn inspiration for their collections from historic references such as the Baroque. Fashion is also looking to the handicraft textiles of Eastern Europe and the nomadic lifestyle.
Rowan is promoting two main stories to reflect the major trends for winter WILDERNESS and CRAFTWORK, to contrast with the two main stories, the ESSENTIALS collection of the magazine will concentrate on the key shapes of the season.
Spring 2011 will celebrate knitwear through the form of extreme ultra-fine and see-through pieces, contrasting with more dense, textured and natural yarns.
Whispers of all things feminine encircle Spring Summer 2010, with elegance, vintage and drape being the central qualities.
Winter 2009 is about all things handmade with the emphasis being firmly on traditional crafts.
Inspired by all things natural, Magazine 45 is full of relaxed, textural casual pieces as well as an ultra-fine, smart urban look.
Magazine 44 celebrates the 30th Anniversary of the Rowan magazine.

Ladies of the Chariots (Ces Dames des chars)
James Tissot
French, 1836-1902
Ladies of the Chariots (Ces Dames des chars), 1883-1885
Oil on canvas
146.1 x 100.7 cm (57 1/2 x 39 5/8 inches)
Gift of Mr. Walter Lowry 58.186
In 1883, Tissot conceived a series of paintings on the subject of modern Parisian women. In The Women of the Chariots, he featured performers at the Hippodrome de l'Alma, a grand arena whose sliding roof could be opened to the sky. Known as Amazons, the charioteers wore costumes of shimmering scales. Their diadems resembled the crown on Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi's new statue, Liberty Illuminating the World, completed in Paris in 1884 and soon to be installed in New York's harbor. Like actresses, dancers, and models, the Amazons belonged to a social class known as the demi-monde, available women whose society enlivened Parisian nightlife.

Modern Bedding
Your bedroom is your sanctuary. It's a place to escape the world, get a bit of rest and just unwind after a long day. That's why it's especially important that you make it a room you love to be in. We understand your need to create a bedroom that's not only comfortable, but inviting, too. Our modern bedding options provide the perfect basis for full-room decor themes, come in a variety of palettes and are made from a long list of fabrics that wrap you in comfort, so you can relax and enjoy a bit of rest when you need it most. Purchase your bedding as an all-in-one set from west elm, or get creative and mix and match from our available options to create a look that's entirely yours.
Bed Sheets
Make your bed a place where you always feel at home by building your bedding set from the ground up. Start with essentials like bed skirts and bed sheets. Choosing the right modern bedding starts with understanding and identifying the type of fabric that works best for your needs. For example, organic cotton bedding is an excellent all-around choice as it is soft against the skin, yet easy to care for, too.
Duvet Covers
Duvet covers not only keep you warm but can also add a delightful splash of cheery, bold color. Whether you choose stamped Ikat, abstract Jacquard or organic sateen, there are plenty of options that can become the central theme of your room.
Throw Blankets
Throw blankets with geometric patterns or fringed edges add a sense of style to your modern bedroom. Look for one that complements the rest of your bedding, creating an instantly cohesive look to the room while keeping you warm on those crisp autumn nights.
Choose pillowcases that match in color, texture, or pattern. To add even more color to your space, consider decorative pillows. These are available in solid colors or more intriguing patterns and printed designs. Show off plenty of personality with beaded pillow covers or make your bed cozier with soft Mongolian lamb pillow covers.

We offer two ways to locate information:
Heir to a traditional Friulian winery - founded by his Austrian great-grandfather Antonio in 1881 -Silvio graduated from two renowned wine academies, Conegliano and Istituto di San Michele. As early as his senior year, he determined to explore new courses in wine-making, and soon moved to Canada. Silvio's voluntary exile broadened his scope and allowed him a freedom of research which would have been unthinkable at home, where his parents, Angelo and Bruna, favored more conservative views.
Today, Silvio has not only converted his parents; he has won over the wine-making world.
His extraordinary, multi-layered, extract-loaded whites are as many landmarks of contemporary viniculture. Their inspired individual style speaks of a will of steel, and an almost mystical view of wine; of Collio's incredible terroir and Silvio's daring flair; of tiny vineyards he personally monitors, and unique blends of indigenous and international varieties.
At once revolutionary and instant classics, immaculate and complex, these wines express the essence of each varietal character to its purest and fullest degree.

If you haven't read this NY Times best selling book, now's the time since the sequel, Hollow City is due out in January 2014.
If the goal of a book is to make the reader think, this book is very effective. Sixteen-year-old Jacob has been told stories all his life by his Grandfather. He told him he had lived in a magical place with all these unique children looked over by a bird. The reason they were there is that monsters were after him, and this was the only place he'd be safe. Turns out that his Jewish Grandfather came to the island from Poland during WWII to escape the Nazi's. Within a few pages, Jacob gets a frantic call from his Grandfather and he goes to check on him and discovers him dying in the woods with long cuts across his chest. With a few last cryptic words, the plot line begins. If you haven't seen the book trailer it's awesome!
Riggs uses photos to embellish his story and they are old and eerily creepy to match the mood of his characters. Jacob uses the photos to find out about his Grandfather, and travels to the island to see if he can uncover any clues to his death. There he meets his Grandfather's playmates, each with their own special "power." Riggs uniquely leaves most of the adults generic as if they are the unreal characters in the book. With plenty of magic, mystical characters, and details it keeps the reader's attention, and the anticipation of the story to unfold. The book has been setup for a sequel (or two).
Before this book, Ransom Riggs' was most noted for his ongoing series at mental floss called Talking Pictures themed collections of found photographs that happen to have writing on them. These have been compiled into a book of the same name.
Though this book is cataloged in the Young Adult section of the library it would probably be liked by those adults who enjoyed Harry Potter or the Twilight series. Though not nearly as gruesome, it reminded me a little of young Stephen King's work, due to the detailing of his grisly antagonists. This NY Times best seller is fun to read, and according to Wikipedia the movie rights were sold to 20th Century Fox and Tim Burton is to direct.

European researchers aim to map out a course of action to secure and sustain European food production.
The European Science Foundation has recently accepted a proposal for a new Forward Look that aims to create a broad research agenda focusing on all aspects of food systems. The objective is to address vital health and environmental issues, such as food security and sustainable development, primarily at a European level but also from a global perspective.
The leading scientists behind this Forward Look, entitled 'European Food Systems in a Changing World', hope that this study will act as a catalyst for the creation of scientific networks throughout all areas of food research. The ultimate aim is to create a self-evolving scientific agenda that will be progressively more equipped to take on major future challenges.

Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) usually occurs during the teenage years when the thighbone is growing at a fast rate. The condition causes the ball part of the of the child's thighbone (capital epiphysis) to slip from the growth plate, causing the child to limp or feel pain in the thigh or knee.
The child's doctor can confirm SCFE by taking an X-ray of the hip. The pain from this condition can be in the hip, thigh or knee area. There are two types of SCFE: a slow slipping of the epiphysis (stable SCFE) and a sudden slipping of the ball part of the hip resulting in severe pain and inability to walk (unstable SCFE).
The cause is unknown, but the condition may be linked to several factors.
If your doctor suspects SCFE, the child should stop walking and be placed into a wheelchair (not crutches) to help prevent further slipping or a sudden slip of the bone, which can cut off the blood supply to the bone. This can cause the ball part of the hip to die (avascular necrosis), resulting in long-term pain, limping or a hip replacement surgery in early adulthood.
When SCFE is confirmed, the child will be admitted to the hospital and put on bed rest. Pain management begins, and skin traction may be used. One of two types of surgery is performed.
After In Situ Pinning, the child may put limited weight on the leg for six to 12 weeks using crutches or as instructed by the physical therapist.
After open reduction surgery, the child is kept on crutches for 12 weeks and not allowed to bear any weight. Children can usually resume athletic activities three months after surgery.

Chris Brown to release 'X' as double album
Listen to Chris Brown on iHeartRadio
Chris Brown is changing things up on his upcoming album X.
In an interview on AXS TV's "SKEE Live," Chris reveals that he's actually planning to make X a double-album with ten songs on each record.
The move is a spin on the album's title, which could be read as the Roman numeral for the number ten. Breezy says he's merely waiting on approval for his record label RCA Records.
Chris also detailed his collaboration with Kendrick Lamar called "Autumn Leaves." He says Kendrick wrote the track from "the mindset of a critic" who was coaching Chris through the song.
Brown also praised the up-and-coming rapper, saying it's "amazing how lyrical he is." Chris Brown's X is slated to arrive later this year.

House Bill Cuts Federal UI Benefits, Stigmatizes Joblessness, Penalizes Workers with Least Education
Dec 12, 2011
Dec. 13, 2011 Update: The House passed the so-called Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2011 today.
The House of Representatives today is scheduled to review a bill introduced by Rep. Dave Camp (R-MI) that puts ideology before the broader needs of the public. While the bill extends the payroll tax deduction, it limits the availability of federally funded unemployment assistance, includes punitive provisions for the least skilled jobless workers and inexplicably ties needed UI benefits and payroll tax reductions to permits for the Keystone pipeline.
Current law provides federal unemployment insurance benefits for up to 99 weeks, depending on the pervasiveness of unemployment in the state. The so-called Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2011 reduces this to a maximum of 59 weeks in hardest hit states. Such a move fails to consider the weak jobs market and the harm reducing unemployment benefits would inflict on families and the national and local economies. Unemployment has been above 8 percent since April 2009, and the percent (43 percent in November 2011) of unemployed workers who have been without a job for six months or more has remained at record levels for 31 months.
"Reducing workers' benefits does not solve the long-term unemployment crisis," said Neil Ridley, a CLASP senior policy analyst. "It is illogical to reduce benefits at a time when long-term unemployment has broken records and is setting new ones."
The bill also includes provisions that would reduce access to and stigmatize those who receive unemployment insurance. It denies unemployment insurance benefits to the most vulnerable workers, those without a high school diploma or GED, if they can't demonstrate they are enrolled in a program leading to a credential. Workers with less than a high school diploma are unemployed at significantly higher rates than workers with a bachelor's degree (13.2 percent v. 4.4 percent).
"There certainly is an argument to be made that more workers need to complete high school and earn postsecondary credentials," Ridley said. "But establishing a blanket policy that denies unemployment insurance benefits to low-skill workers, who have lost their jobs and would otherwise be eligible, just because they don't have a high school diploma and without ensuring they have access to education opportunities is punitive and misguided."

The Mehr News Agency, which publishes in Farsi, English, Turkish, Urdu, German and Arabic, carried an interview by Kourosh Ziabari with Adnan Oktar on 8 February, 2009. (You can read the full text of the interview here.)
Some of the issues emphasized by Adnan Oktar in the interview are as follows:
"Muslims are generally unaware where the troubles are coming from. … When I investigated it I saw that Darwinism lay at the root of all this suffering, trouble, violence and pain as there would be no materialism without Darwinism. Darwinism is essential for materialist philosophy and without materialism there can be no communism, fascism, imperialism, savage capitalism, nor immorality nor terror. These are all inter-related, but because people are ignorant of that, they fail to grasp the importance of the intellectual struggle against Darwinism."
"Palestine was a training camp for Marxists and communists in the 1980s. In the same way, the socialist Baathist mindset dominated Syria and Iraq for years. Afghanistan was subjected to communist occupation. Some of these people received a Darwinist education in the West and then returned to settle in their Muslim countries. It is always Darwinists today that espouse the killing of the innocent, terror, and anarchy in the supposed name of Islam."
Adnan Oktar also stated that this Darwinist oppression would end with the coming of Hazrat Mahdi (as) in the End Times:
"But our Prophet says that after that, 'all this will be reversed with the appearance of Hazrat Mahdi (pbuh), one of my children, and that there will come an age of well-being, abundance, peace, plenty, gentleness, and beauty.'"

Quick Mill Water Reservoir FloatOne of the common failure points on older Quick Mill Andreja Premium, Anita and Alexia machines was that the water sensor float would sometimes degrade, either because the float developed a small hole and took on water, causing it to sink, or because the magnet itself detached from the float and sunk to the bottom. Quick Mill recently upgraded this part and is including it on all currently manufactured models, but if you have an older version and are having issues with the machine sensing water, this part will most likely solve your problem. It has been upgraded with a stronger magnet and the float itself is filled with a buoyant substance instead of being hollow. Learn More$16.89

Catch rye whiskey on the upswing. This strong spirit has been regaining its former popularity. Taste what all the hype is about. Shop our collection of rye whiskey online at Wine Chateau to find deals and discounts on the best brands.
As with other varieties, rye whiskey gets its name because of its mash being composed mostly of rye. The spirit is distilled and aged in new barrels to enhance its flavor. Formerly produced in regions throughout the country, most distilleries are now concentrated in Kentucky.
Rye whiskey has been in a bit of a popularity contest with bourbon. Although both are whiskey, the two styles are rather different. Rye offers spicy, fruity notes with a zesty finish and dryness that cut through cocktail mixers. It has a lighter body than bourbon but is still robust. Bartenders started to favor bourbon for its sweet and smooth characteristics that would blend better in cocktails. Lately, there has been a resurgence in the popularity of rye whiskey.
Try an alternative to the sweet whiskeys with rye whiskey that will really stand out. Browse our selection at Wine Chateau to search for the top labels in the trade with a variety of styles and profiles.

Blended family bonding
Because things are a little rocky with my stepson and I right now, my hubby and I worry that having a new baby will send him over the edge. Do any of you more experiences mums have advice for how to make him feel more included in our family both before and after we add another little one?
29th May 2014 06:03 AM #2
Dear Lea26,
I think you are doing the right thing in thinking ahead and thinking how your stepson will manage with the changes ahead. You sound like a very caring family.
What is important here is that your stepson knows he is absolutely loved and valued and a new baby does not take away any of this. Have you started talking to him about having a new brother or sister in the future? There are some excellent books out there which can prepare children of all ages for a new sibling. It can be a confusing time for any child and I would let him know that it is ok to feel a range of emotions and to express them to you. Books, drawing pictures together and stories can really help as well as talking about friends/ family who have had a new baby in their family.
Are you able to plan a special time with him each week where, perhaps, he can choose a activity to do with you and your husband he particularly enjoys. It could be watching his favourite film, going for a milkshake together, or a bike ride he really likes. Protecting this time (from the demands of weekly family life) will help him to know how valued he is and it is something which can be continued once a new baby arrives.
Spending quiet time enjoying books with your stepson each day has also been shown to aid bonding.
May I ask if there is a particular reason why things are a bit rocky at the moment? This may help me to answer your question more fully.
With warm wishes,

As I've mentioned before: As far as I go, no singer/songwriter better explores the theme of religion or better employs religious imagery than Nick Cave. Very few people write either religious music or music about religion that avoids either preaching on its behalf or railing against it. Nick Cave is liberated from any creedal loyalty [Read More…]

Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz painted misleading portrait of Pew report on journalists' views
Research ››› ››› JAMISON FOSER
Washington Post media critic Howard Kurtz wrote a May 24 "Media Notes" column about the opinions of media professionals that was, in several cases, not supported by the report issued by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press upon which his article was based.
Kurtz claimed, "The survey confirmed that national journalists are to the left of the public on social issues." But Kurtz did not note that the Pew report included commentary by Bill Kovach, Tom Rosenstiel and Amy Mitchell (of the Committee of Concerned Journalists and the Project for Excellence in Journalism) that specifically warned against drawing such conclusions:
Journalists' own politics are also harder to analyze than people might think. The fact that journalists -- especially national journalists -- are more likely than in the past to describe themselves as liberal reinforces the findings of the major academic study on this question... But what does liberal mean to journalists? We would be reluctant to infer too much here. The survey includes just four questions probing journalists' political attitudes, yet the answers to these questions suggest journalists have in mind something other than a classic big government liberalism and something more along the lines of libertarianism. More journalists said they think it is more important for people to be free to pursue their goals without government interference than it is for government to ensure that no one is in need. [Emphasis added]
Kurtz wrote of the Pew report, "The 55 percent of national journalists, and 37 percent of local ones, who see the media as soft on Bush may well be reflecting their own views of the president." This may be true, of course -- just about anything may be true -- but Kurtz's speculation was his own, driven by little in the Pew report itself. Indeed, by making this suggestion -- and thus implying that the media was not too soft on Bush -- Kurtz may well have been reflecting his own view of the president. But of course, we don't know that.
Kurtz also used Pew's findings to imply that the national media is elitist: "31 percent of national journalists now have a great deal of confidence in the public's election choices, compared with 52 percent at the end of the Clinton administration. The clear implication is that many media people feel superior to their customers." While the Pew report summary did note that "national news people ... express considerably less confidence in the political judgment of the American public than they did five years ago," the report also noted, "Nonetheless, journalists have at least as much confidence in the public's electoral judgments as does the public itself." According to Pew, only 20 percent of the general public has "a great deal" of confidence in the public's election choices.
Kurtz wasn't alone in making curious choices about which results to emphasize. The Pew report itself, for example, noted that "Self-described moderates [in the media] offer a mixed judgment of the Bush coverage -- about the same percentages say it has not been critical enough (44%) and fair (43%)." Left out of the report text -- but shown in an accompanying chart -- is that only 12 percent of moderates in the media think the media has been too critical of Bush. The "mixed judgment" Pew described could alternately be described as a near-consensus that the media has not been too critical of Bush.
Pew made another interesting choice in titling a chart that showed that a majority of national print and television media professionals, as well as a plurality of local print journalists, think the media has been too easy on Bush. Pew titled the chart "Local TV Reporters: Press Not Too Easy on Bush" rather than using a title that conveyed the fact that three of the four groups shown said (by at least a plurality) that the media has been too easy on Bush.
Kurtz did not describe Pew's methodology, and Pew said the survey is based on "interviews with 547 national and local reporters, producers, editors and executives across the country." It is worth noting -- as Pew indicated later in the report -- that the survey included only 232 "working journalists and editors" -- 127 in the national media, and 105 in local media. The rest were "executives" and "senior editors and producers."

George Clooney Gossip
George Clooney gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Amal's first premiere?
Wenn, FameFlynet, @Parisa/ London Entertainment/ Splash News, Alberto E. Rodriguez/ Getty Images
That title, without the question mark, was the original. But then I remembered that Amal Clooney was actually at one of the Monuments Men premieres, although at that point, she and George hadn't made their declaration yet. So while they've walked several carpets together, this can be considered the first time they've walked a carpet together for one of his movie openings. Full Story
Smutty Social Media, Friday May 8, 2015
Lainey posted about George Clooney's birthday party this morning and Cindy Crawford posted a photo of the personalized balloon place settings. Had to so much fun celebrating with the birthday boy last night! Happy birthday, #GeorgeClooney! 🎈 Full Story
George Clooney talks about Amal and his birthday
Bauer-Griffin, Sonia Hall/Jameson Bedonie/ Splash News
Tomorrowland comes out on May 22. George Clooney is now promoting the movie. Here he is at Jimmy Kimmel yesterday. And there are also interviews with Extra and Entertainment Tonight. As expected, he's asked about his birthday (Wednesday), which is why, well, he looks rough. Like really, really tired. Full Story
The Clooneys first MET Gala

Ever since they arrived in New York I've been rubbing up the Gossip Genie for it, for Amal and George Clooney to show up at the MET Gala. How could it not happen? Anna Wintour was at their wedding. Anna had the Clooneys seated at her table. Anna Wintour supervised Amal's fitting with John Galliano for Maison Margiela! AMAL CLOONEY BEING FITTED BY JOHN GALLIANO FOR TONIGHT AT THE MET GALA.

Amal Clooney was in Washington, DC today. She called a press conference to advocate on behalf of Mohamed Nasheed, the former president of the Maldives. She was there with Nasheed's wife Laila Ali. Just a regular day at work for a human rights lawyer who, apparently, needs help picking out her clothes. Full Story
Tom Cruise & Armani

Tom Cruise was also in Milan to honour Giorgio Armani. He will be attending the fashion show and cocktail tonight for Mr Armani's 40th anniversary too. As a super super VIP. I mean, everyone's a VIP. But, as you can see, Roberta Armani's the one escorting him. People in Europe don't give a sh-t about Going Clear. Full Story
A Clooney-Alamuddin dinner
XactpiX/ Splash News
Amal and George Clooney were out last night in New York for dinner with her parents and her sister. They went to Caravaggio. George Clooney LOVES Italian food. Actually, he loves Italian everything. Sh-t, why didn't it work out again with Elisabetta Canalis? Anyway, Amal is wearing Alexander McQueen. Full Story
Tomorrowland is Home Alone with robots?
I'd be totally okay with that. The onslaught of "please put this in front of the Avengers" trailers continues today with a new trailer from Tomorrowland, George Clooney's sci-fi adventure that is (disappointingly) also not a biopic of Walt Disney. This project, written and directed by Brad Bird, has been mystery-boxed, but this trailer gives us a fair look at the action and tone of the movie, even though I'm still a little dim on the plot. Full Story
The happy, hilarious Clooneys
Wenn, Blayze/ Christopher Peterson/ Splash News
George Clooney was at work again this past weekend on Money Monster in New York. And Amal came to visit again. And something must have been really funny because there were big laughs and, as you can see from George's various facial expressions, they're still honeymooning because I don't think he's ever found a woman so interesting. Full Story
2 Clooneys, 2 dogs
Wenn, Janet Mayer/ Nancy Rivera/ Splash News
It was a working weekend for George Clooney as he continues to shoot Jodie Foster's Money Monster in New York. On Sunday they were all outside. So Amal stopped by to visit with the dogs. Dogs? George has talked often about Einstein, the black cocker spaniel, in interviews. As you can see, Einstein has a sibling now. Full Story
The Clooneys $600 selfie
XactpiX/ Splash News
Amal and George Clooney will be spending the summer at their home in Lake Como next month and apparently there's going to be a birthday party and a temporary bylaw has been passed that's supposed to be to deter paps and gawkers. They're making it so that if you violate the ban, you could be fined $600. Full Story

Previous spotlight: Sue McHenry
McHenry recognized for outstanding contributions to the university
"UAF has been an important thread in my life for more than 40 years now, starting in the late '60s when I was a psychology major interacting with people and ideas that were new to me." -- Sue McHenry
Susan "Sue" McHenry was named Academic Advisor, Emerita during UAF's commencement in May 2008. She is one of two people who have received this status as a UAF staff member. McHenry was recognized for her outstanding contributions to the university through her role as an advisor with the Rural Student Services, seeking ways to create supportive networks for students, dedicating her career to recruiting, advising and mentoring countless students, many of whom credit their academic and personal accomplishments to her guidance. McHenry credits the students for enriching her life as she had the opportunity to observe their academic and professional development: "How much respect I have for the countless former students who have found interesting ways to use their education to contribute substantially to their communities all over the state. It's quite fascinating and inspiring that these former first-year students are now working in tribal organizations and businesses, teaching and leading schools, serving as scientists, health providers or engineers, contributing in so many diverse roles. They are also raising children who assume that going to college is a possibility, even an expectation. That represents an exciting future for Alaska."
McHenry has been associated with Rural Student Services for 29 of the 32 years of its existence. She has made an impact on literally hundreds of Alaska Native people and rural Alaskans. McHenry's support for rural students reaches beyond the RSS office at the main Fairbanks campus. She has represented the university at rural college and career fairs and has been a strong advocate for students across the state. She feels that "UAF's rural campuses and distance-delivered programs are a valuable service to the residents of our state who are able to continue commitments without transplanting their families to an urban setting." Even in retirement, she is constantly engaged in efforts that create a network of support for students.
McHenry was instrumental in developing the university chapter of the American Indian Science and Engineering Society, which has been named national chapter of the year five times under her mentorship. She has also helped coordinate the Alaska Native Science and Engineering Program. Her leadership in both these programs has directly resulted in their outstanding success and the success of the students involved in the programs.
McHenry graduated from UAF in 1970 with a bachelor's degree in psychology, and in 1976 with a master's degree in education focusing on college student personnel administration. She has taught student success courses for college freshmen and has been a Rural Alaska Honors Institute instructor. She has received many awards, including theĀ Edith R. Bullock Prize for Excellence from the University of Alaska Foundation, the Denali Award from the Alaska Federation of Natives for her efforts as a non-Native person whose work has been of great benefit to the Alaska Native community, the UA President's Make Students Count Award, the Associated Students of UAF Outstanding Faculty/Staff Award and the UAF Outstanding Advisor Award twice.
McHenry has helped students from rural and urban communities navigate their way through university systems and processes. Her unwavering support, warmth and honesty have bolstered the confidence of many students who may otherwise have stumbled, but who instead achieved their goals and now contribute to the state's rural leadership and communities. McHenry's constant and consistent endeavor for lifelong learning was enriched when she had the opportunity to observe Chief Peter John in 1994. She recalls, "During a visit to the Fairbanks campus in 1994, Chief Peter John, the traditional chief of the Athabascan nation, explained how the Athabascan people had used this hill, known as Troth Yeddha', to gather together, share information, and learn from each other. It is meaningful to me that people from all over the state, this country and the world continue to gather here and learn from each other. The value of this exchange, especially with an emphasis on the peoples of the North, is underscored in UAF's mission statement and strategic goals."
McHenry was more than an advisor at Rural Student Services; she became a family member to many of the students that she worked with: "From a personal perspective, I have been enriched by enduring friendships and learning experiences throughout my association with the university. Students have grown into family members and I probably know somebody from just about every community in Alaska. What an opportunity for learning!"
She plans to stay involved with UAF and RSS in her retirement and says: "Because of the ways my involvement with UAF has benefited me, I look forward to exploring different channels to stay connected to UAF. I feel that as UAF alumni, we have a special vantage point from which to impact the lives of Alaskans in relation to our university, whether it is a chat with a prospective student or attendance at a UAF event or perhaps financial support for a scholarship or program that is of special significance to us. If you have a chance to encourage a current student, grab the opportunity to reinforce the idea that the effort they put into their education now will reap rewards for themselves and their communities later. It seems to me that the personal connections are the most meaningful, and even though they may feel like a small gesture, they mean a lot to the student at that moment. We can each make a difference in a small way."

As Republicans prepare for yet another show vote on abortion Tuesday, Speaker John Boehner and his leadership team are facing a rising tide of frustration from Republican moderates angry over the rightward tack the conference has taken under his leadership.
Those dissatisfied moderates hit Boehner with a one-two punch Monday.
First, the Columbus Dispatch reported that Rep. Steve LaTourette had abruptly decided to retire. That decision shocked many Republicans, in part because LaTourette – who like Boehner is a from Ohio – has had, at least until recently, an extremely close relationship with the Speaker.
At the same time, Syracuse Republican Rep. Hanna harshly criticized the GOP, arguing leadership has gone too far in deferring to the demands of conservatives.
"I have to say that I'm frustrated by how much we — I mean the Republican Party — are willing to give deferential treatment to our extremes in this moment in history," Hanna told the Post-Standard.

It is no secret that I love dresses. But this year, I want to celebrate being a girly girl and being unabashedly feminine by wearing them as much as possible. Therefore, number 1 on my list of 12 things for 2012 is simply to wear more dresses.
I'm so glad it's summer time in Sydney, which makes dress wearing easy peasy. I guess it's pretty obvious I like my dresses light and roomy, which makes for relaxed living (and twirling).The 3 dresses in the middle are my absolute favorites and I wear them on high rotation. It's like my equivalent of the little black dress, except they're not black.
Have you been wearing dresses lately?
