Mango hot-off
Can't even imagine what Jacek will be doing after this post. He's all over Monica Cruz, sister of Penelope Cruz. And Monica Cruz in combination with Scarlett Johansson? We have hours to go before the hockey game starts. That's a lot of time.
Here they are in Spain at a party for Mango. Both Scarjo and M Cruz are official spokespersons. Yeah. M is a sexpot. Totally.
This I think is my favourite hair colour on Mrs Reynolds. And she wears red lipstick very, very well. I tried to wear red lipstick the other day and looked like an old dried up geisha. It's so tricky on Asians.
Anyway, as reported earlier, Scarlett will be featured on Broadway beginning December 28 for 14 weeks opposite Liev Schreiber in A View from the Bridge concluding just in time to kick off Iron Man 2 promotion as the film opens on May 7th. Will be interesting to see if the studio trot out all four stars on the press tour – RDJ, Scarjo, Paltrow, and Cheadle – or if G is told to stay home in favour of the bombshell. Can't wait.

FOX Business: Capitalism Lives Here
Continue Reading Below
Wall Street stormed into 2013 with a euphoric rally on Wednesday as traders enthusiastically cheered a short-term compromise in Washington that clawed the U.S. back from the recession-inducing fiscal cliff.
Today's Markets
The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 308.41 points, or 2.35%, to 13412.55, the S&P 500 soared 36.23 points, or 2.54%, to 1462.42 and the Nasdaq Composite rallied 92.75 points, or 3.07%, to 3112.26.
The triple-digit burst of buying marked the Dow's strongest one-day percentage rally since June 2012 and the index's largest point gain to start a new year on record. The broader S&P 500 landed at its highest close since September 14.
After months of political sparring on Capitol Hill, lawmakers finally passed a budget bill Tuesday. The move came after essentially 24-straight hours of wrangling in both chambers of Congress as the U.S. technically, if not briefly, slipped over the fiscal cliff.
In a sign of the bullish sentiment in the wake of the deal, buying on Wall Street picked up steam, with the major indexes ending at session highs. The blue chips are now just 5.3% away from their all-time record close of 14164.53 set in October 2007.
"It's clearly therapeutic for a market that looked to be losing its confidence," said Peter Kenny, managing director at Knight Capital Group (NYSE:KCG), who called the rally a "very, very aggressive move to the upside."
Coupled with a strong rally on Monday that was fueled by signs of progress, the S&P 500 has surged 4.28% in just two sessions -- its strongest two-day performance since November 2011.
All 30 blue-chip stocks landed in the green, led by Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:HPQ) and Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT).
Small-cap stocks also enjoyed a burst of buying, with the Russell 2000 surging 2.8% to close at a new all-time record high, surpassing its previous high set in May 2011.
At the same time, at least 90% of Wednesday's New York Stock Exchange volume was in advancing stocks, making it the second straight 90% up volume session. That marks the first back-to-back 90% up volume days in at least five years and could indicate an overbought market.
The deal that is expected to be signed into law by President Barack Obama extends tax cuts on single filers earning less than $400,00 a year and joint filers making less than $450,000. It also delays sequestration -- the painful automatic spending cuts associated with the fiscal cliff -- for two months.
Global markets cheered the news, with markets in Asia, Australia and Europe tacking on big gains in their first day of trading for the new year. Many economically-sensitive commodities roared higher as well.
Market participants were broadly relieved that the deal was passed, averting measures that could have dealt a painful blow to the world's biggest economy. Still, they struck a very cautious tone. Among the reasons for concern were the fact that the bill simply delayed the sequestration and failed to address the debt ceiling.
"Wall Street will likely savor the resolution for the time being, but experience renewed investment agita before the quarter is out, offering better entry levels as the year progresses," Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at McGraw-Hill's (NYSE:MHP) S&P Capital IQ, wrote in a note to clients.
The U.S. has technically already hit the debt limit, forcing the Treasury Department to take "extraordinary measures" to give Congress headroom until about February. Last time the country pushed the upper bounds of the debt limit, it roiled the markets and cost the U.S. its pristine credit rating with Standard & Poor's.
"Considering there are so many headwinds facing the economy, including the debt ceiling negotiation in 60 days, the smart money knows the bullish sentiment will be short-lived. The lesson for investors here is 'buyer beware,'" Todd Schoenberger, managing partner at LandColt Capital wrote in an email.
Indeed, according to an analysis by Barclays, fiscal consolidation is likely to hit U.S. gross domestic product by 1.5% this year.
On the economic front, the latest Institute for Supply Management data show U.S. manufacturing activity increased to 50.7 last month from 49.5 in November. The index was expected to rise to 50.3. Readings above 50 indicate expansion while those below 50 indicate contraction
Commodities rallied. The benchmark crude oil contract jumped $1.30, or 1.4%, to $93.12 a barrel. Wholesale New York Harbor gasoline gained 1.2% to $2.795 a gallon. In metals, gold advanced $13.00 or 0.78%, to $1,689 a troy ounce.
Foreign Markets
The Euro Stoxx 50 soared 2.9% to 2711, the English FTSE 100 rallied 2.2% to 6027 and the German DAX jumped 2.2% to 7779.
In Asia, the Chinese Hang Seng surged 2.9% to 23312. The Tokyo Stock Exchange was closed for a holiday.

What possible reason was there for anyone to make Did You Hear About the Morgans? Or should I say "remake," because this movie has been made and over and over again, and oh, so much better.
You should hear instead about Sam Elliott and Mary Steenburgen, who whip up cowboy fun as married U.S. marshals assigned to protect the pair in Wyoming.
Not even the estimable comic chops of Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker can lift it above the level of ordinary.
See all Did You Hear About the Morgans? reviews at Metacritic.com
OK for kids 13+
Fish-out-of-water romcom is teen-friendly but a real snooze.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that this Hugh Grant/Sarah Jessica Parker romantic comedy is a classic fish-out-of-water tale that could appeal to romcom-loving teens, despite its bland story. There are a few kisses and references to sex, marriage, and infidelity. Strong language is surprisingly infrequent (one "s--t" and "bulls--t"), and most of the violence -- including minor gunviolence (and gun use in general, in the parts that take place in Wyoming), as well as some comical scenes involving bear spray -- is concentrated briefly at the beginning and the end of the movie. Expect a fair bit of product placement/promotion, including BlackBerry, Gillette, and more.
Messages: Paul and Meryl learn to appreciate what Wyoming has to offer -- open sky, a slower pace, and friendly, unjaded people -- even though they're die-hard, snotty New Yorkers. The importance of fidelity and loyalty in marriage is another obvious theme.
Role models: Emma and Clay are positive role models for a loving and lasting -- albeit imperfect -- marriage. Paul and Meryl are at first very annoying, sterotypical New Yorkers (especially Meryl), but they eventually prove that small towns have something to offer even the most cynical, overly chatty city folks.
Violence: Some gun violence, but nothing bloody. A man with a knife in his back plunges to his death, and a hit man tries to shoot a couple. The same hit man opens fire again in a crowded place. Most of the population of Ray, Wyo., is armed (legally, it's presumed) with guns, and a couple of scenes revolve around characters learning to shoot a rifle and then using it against the hit man. Comical violence includes the use of bear spray on a man -- twice.
Sex: Paul and Meryl kiss a few times and cuddle (in their pajamas) in bed together. They also discuss Paul's adultery on several occasions. Secondary couples dance, flirt, and kiss as well, but nothing too risque.
Language: One "s--t" and "bulls--t" is the worst of it. Other mild insults/exclamations include "screw you," "hell, yeah," "idiot," "oh my God," and "stupid," as well as Britishisms like "bloody" and "bollocks."
Consumerism: Several brands are featured fairly prominently: BlackBerry, Google, Gillette, Carhartt, Edge, Advil, and Hunt's ketchup. Also lots of New York-specific places and publications, like the Times, New York magazine, Nobu restaurant, Zabar's, etc.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: An elderly man smokes cigarettes in his restaurant. Paul and Meryl have wine on their table at dinner.

A new quilt to be permanently displayed at St. John's Lutheran Church in Pearl City has a certain warmth that has little to do with the fabric of which it is made. The quilt was planned and made by the congregation's women's organization as a special project to mark the church's 125th anniversary. They wanted to do something special to mark this date in the church's history.
The intent, of course, was to make a beautiful and lasting commemoration of the anniversary, but the group was also impassioned with the idea to involve in some way every member of the congregation. That, needless to say, proved to be a challenge. The decision was made to have all the members' signatures stitched onto the quilt. They realized this would be a great undertaking, but they were determined to try. Future folk would feel a kinship with those folks way back in 2013.
The decision to tackle the quilt project was made in early 2013 by Women of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (WELCA), the congregation's women's organization. Members of the Ladies Aid and Mary Martha Circle also participated.
Where to start? Naming committees, organizing the process, choosing a theme, the colors, pattern, all were part of the preliminary process. All that had to be completed before the actual work on the quilt could commence, and it was important to them that the quilt be completed in time for the mid-September celebration.
Big decisions
First off, the WELCA executive board, after considerable study, chose burgundy, green and beige for the colors. So Lynda Palmer, who is chairman of the WELCA board, Lori Kempel and Janet Ferguson went shopping. A Biblical theme with various well-known verses of Scripture was chosen from a professional guide, a book titled, "More Biblical Quilt Blocks."
Blocks are all named. The 11 patterns conscientiously chosen by WELCA members include: "Bethlehem Rose," "Cross and Crown," "Crown of Thorns," "David and Goliath," "Double Cross," "Garden Walk," "Heavenly Problems," "Road to Paradise," "Robbing Peter to Pay Paul," "Star and Cross" and "Wedding Ring." Each pattern includes the Scripture reference represented. The women worked hard to coordinate it all. It was an exacting series of processes.
Four line drawings of St. John's various church edifices throughout history are highlights of the quilt. Sean Brady created the pictures for the blocks from black-and-white photos.
Another important step was ironing the 52 signature blocks for the signatures. Several of the women are experienced quilters, so their expertise was put to use. Lynda Palmer cut the fabric blocks and sewed them together. There were times when the quilt pieces had to be spread out on a large table, or even on a floor for the women to be on their hands and knees, to figure out the pattern.
Members of Mary Martha Circle, who participated in the total project, included Kathy Hillmer, Joan Frey, Anne Marie Harbison, Marge Ruhberg and Shirley Emil. Ladies Aid members who participated included Doris Kness, Janet Ferguson, Dorothy Eden, Miriam Harnish and Twila Simler. The women were also grateful to Dianne Handsacker, parish administrator, who assisted in many ways.
Margaret Knoup of Rockford, who the girls said "had ties to Pearl City," did the machine quilting. Her quilting on the back of the quilt makes that side exquisite in its own right.
Right now, a full-sized wall display case with a Plexiglass cover is in the making. The quilt being 80 inches by 90 inches requires a large rectangle of the Plexiglass, which the girls noted would be costly. Members Gilbert and Darlene Hershey are building the show case and donating that.
They've named the finished work of art appropriately, "St. John's 125th Anniversary Signature Quilt." The design is credited to all of WELCA but especially to Lori Kempel, Mary Ann Kliman and Lynda Palmer. Kempel and Palmer were the sewers. Embroiderers were Karen Bremmer, Bonnie Dittmar, Dorothy Eden, Miriam Harnish and Kathy Williams.
This magnificent item was completed Aug. 13, well in time for the big celebration. The girls were so concerned that the quilt might get soiled if people touched it that signs of "Do not touch" were posted prominently at close range. The women said they got a bit of friendly teasing by their interim pastor, the Rev. Art Stees, for their watchful and protective attitude. But who can blame them, what with all the care and work that went into the making of it?
On the day of the grand anniversary celebration, viewers were joyfully impressed by the quilt. Even children were excited with it, seeking their family members' names on it, delighted when they found them. One other quilt hangs in the church. It was made in 1917. Lori Kempel's great-grandmother's name is on that one. A quilt was also presented at the church's 100th anniversary to former longtime pastor the Rev. Milton Whitney of Freeport, and his now deceased wife, Evelyn, both of whom the women spoke affectionately.
Mission accomplished?
Well, great effort was made to get each and every member's signature on the quilt, and if a member was unable to sign it for herself or himself, it was done for them. It is obvious that much thought, creativity, enthusiasm, work and fun went into the making of the quilt. It was truly a labor of love, and it will forever and always be a prized possession of that congregation. And, of course, this priceless piece fully merits the pride of all those who made it happen.

UH Manoa health program launches summer experience
Building the next generation of health-care professionalsUniversity of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
The University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Health Careers Opportunity Program (HCOP) will kick off a 10-day summer residential experience on Sunday, June 21, for twenty-six public high school sophomores and juniors interested in becoming health professionals.
The first program is an overnight experience on the USS Missouri, where students will meet with Congressman Neil Abercrombie and his aide Terry Visperas, a former HCOP participant.
Throughout the 10-day program, students will participate in problem-based learning classes, similar to those that are taught at the UH Mānoa John A. Burns School of Medicine. They will meet health professionals from various careers in medicine, nursing, bio-medical research, public health, and social work.
Students will receive instruction on time management, financial literacy, college course planning and research skills. Between classes, they will also visit area health clinics, go hiking, and participate in a service learning project on Mokauea Island on Saturday, June 27, from 9:00 a.m. to noon.
The participants were recruited from underrepresented groups from the Leeward Coast, urban Honolulu and Kauai. To be eligible for the program, students must be from an economically or educationally disadvantaged background. To date, more than 250 students have participated in HCOP programs.
HCOP was first established in 2000 as a grant from the Health Resources and
Services Administration, Bureau of Health Professions, Division of Health
Careers Diversity. It became a UH Manoa program under Student Equity, Excellence & Diversity (SEED) in 2008, with funding from the Hawaiʻi State Legislature.
SEED oversees programs that recruit, and provide support and retention services for underrepresented students in higher education. Its programs touch the lives of students in pre-kindergarten through 12th grade, as well as undergraduate, graduate and professional degree programs.

From "test tube" to market typically takes a new drug more than 10 years. FDA has been working hard at many points along a drug's developmental path to reduce this time and bring safe and effective new therapies to Americans as efficiently as possible.
Much has been said about FDA's success in using its "expedited approval" tools, specifically Priority Review and Accelerated Approval, to support innovative new drugs. These are important tools that FDA can use once a marketing application is submitted. For instance, last year, FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) approved 39 novel medications, almost half of which benefited from one (or both) of these expedited approval tools. According to a recent FDA report, this is a 63% increase over the average number of annual approvals since 2002.
But less has been said about FDA's "expedited development" tools, which help foster new drug innovation during the investigational phases of drug research and development, well before a marketing application for a new drug is even submitted to FDA. Among these tools are more frequent and earlier opportunities for communication between FDA and drug developers. FDA's Fast Track designation for drugs with the potential to address unmet medical needs is an example. For many years, Fast Track has helped speed new drug development by encouraging more communication early in the development process. In 2012, about 40% of CDER's novel new drug approvals were drugs that were given this Fast Track designation.
Just this past year, the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA) authorized FDA to use a new Breakthrough designation for investigational new drugs when preliminary clinical data suggest that the drug may provide a substantial improvement over existing therapies for patients with serious or life-threatening diseases. The concept behind Breakthrough is that, with increased communication, FDA will work with new drug developers to help design efficient ways to study the safety and effectiveness of their drug. This early assistance can help ensure that the results of clinical trials provide the evidence that FDA must have to determine whether or not a drug is safe and effective for approval. A growing number of drug developers are already taking advantage of Breakthrough.
But even before Breakthrough had been authorized by FDASIA, FDA was working to encourage communication opportunities for drug developers to meet with FDA to help make sure their clinical trial designs and development plans offered the best chances of efficient, safe, and timely development and approval. These opportunities are available at the start of a drug's clinical development cycle: right before the earliest phases of human testing known as the "pre-investigational new drug (IND) phase" (fittingly called pre-IND meetings) and continue throughout drug development.
Early communication in action
Recently, FDA has taken a look at the development times of new drugs that were approved with the benefit of pre-IND meetings and compared them to the development times for drugs that were approved without such meetings. The findings underscore the value of early communication. For those new drugs for which a pre-IND meeting between the drug developer and FDA was held, average clinical development times were substantially shorter than when a meeting was not held. For instance, for all new drugs approved between 2010 and 2012, the average clinical development time was more than 3 years faster when a pre-IND meeting was held than it was for drugs approved without a pre-IND meeting.
For orphan drugs used to treat rare diseases, the development time for products with a pre-IND meeting was 6 years shorter on average or about half of what it was for those orphan drugs that did not have such a meeting. Early communication is especially important for orphan drugs because these products require special attention and thus early talks can be especially beneficial.
Many factors can influence the speed and efficiency of a drug development program. Nevertheless, FDA strongly believes in the value of effective communication during the drug development and approval process, especially for novel development programs when established regulatory pathways do not exist. FDA is committed to working with drug developers to ensure efficient and effective drug development programs whenever possible.
Thirty-nine novel new drug approvals last year is encouraging – one third of which are indicated to treat rare diseases – and many of these new drugs are now making valuable contributions to public health inAmerica. FDA will continue to do its part to help bring safe and effective new drugs to market as soon as possible. We will continue efforts to enhance communication as a critical part of the drug research, development, and regulatory process – especially since it is so clear that communications can make a big difference.
Anne Pariser, M.D., is Associate Director for Rare Diseases, Office of New Drugs, Rare Diseases Program at FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research

Former MVP Ryan Braun suspended for rest of season
Submitted: 07/22/2013
- Former National League MVP Ryan Braun has been suspended without pay for the rest of the season and the postseason in what appears to be the first of a series of suspensions resulting from baseball's investigation of a Florida clinic accused of distributing performance-enhancing drugs. MLB Commissioner Bud Selig announced the penalty Monday, citing Braun for multiple ``violations'' of baseball's drug program and labor contract. The Milwaukee Brewers star will miss at least 65 games. In a statement, Braun indicated he has made some mistakes in the past and the Milwaukee outfielder says he's willing to accept the consequences of his actions. Braun was among the players interviewed as part of baseball's investigation into Biogenesis, the closed Florida anti-aging clinic. The company was accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. Braun was reportedly one of several players who refused to answer questions about their dealing with Biogenisis. He also tested positive for an elevated testosterone level, and was dealt a 50-game suspension, but an arbitrator overturned it in 2012 before the suspension took effect. To hear how some area fans reacted to the news, click on the video.

Our gun-obsessed language reveals much about us
By Joe Lurie
Featured in Contra Costa Times Jan. 5th, 2013 (updated version of Language Under the Gun article)
With 5 percent of the world's population, Americans now possess about half of the world's guns. Is it any wonder then that mass shootings in the U.S. have skyrocketed in the past decade? And in the wake of the grotesque massacre at Sandy Hook, is it surprising that sales of kids' bulletproof backpacks have soared, or that our culture more than ever is drenched in the language of guns?
As I watch left- and right-wing politicians and pundits "up in arms" on TV, battling in a "crossfire" of blame, each side looking for a "smoking gun" to explain or cast blame for horrifying gun-related catastrophes, I've become increasingly aware of how our culture's preoccupations with guns are reflected even during innocent "shooting the breeze" conversations.
We often value the "straight shooter," yet are wary of those who "shoot their mouths off," those who "shoot from the hip" or glibly end an argument with a "parting shot." We caution colleagues to avoid "shooting themselves in the foot," and counsel them not to "shoot the messenger."
Without suspecting what drives our language, we are "blown away" by adorable photos of loved ones. At the movies, many audiences are thrilled by "shoot-'em-up," "double-barreled action" scenes, or are excited by car chases where actors "gun" their engines.
I often ask friends to "shoot me" an email and I've encouraged job seekers to give an interview their "best shot" and "stick to their guns" during salary discussions. And if a job is offered, I might congratulate them for doing a "bang-up" job.
In sensitive business negotiations, I've advised patience, urging clients to "troubleshoot" solutions, but to avoid "jumping the gun" and to be aware of "loaded" questions." To get the biggest "bang for the buck," I've recommended bringing the "big guns" to the table. We look for "silver bullet" solutions, hoping for "bulletproof" results. And when success is in sight, we say: "You're on target," or "you're going great guns!"
We encourage entrepreneurial risk taking, even if the project doesn't have a "shot in hell." Just "fire away" when you make that "killer" presentation, and if your idea is "shot down," don't be "gun shy." Just "bite the bullet" and go at it again, with "guns blazing." Don't be afraid to "shoot for the moon," even if it looks like a "shot in the dark."
Having worked as a university executive with students from more than 80 countries, I've noticed that students from abroad are struck by the violent language in our songs and films, and they hear it bleeding into our political discourse.
Many have asked me in amazement why it is even necessary to state that guns and ammunition are banned from university residence halls. Yet, "son of a gun," 26 colleges in three states permit guns on college campuses. And gun liberalization legislation for colleges is in the "cross hairs" in at least nine more states.
I've heard staff and students alike stressed by an approaching deadline, instinctively describing themselves as being "under the gun." Sometimes my colleagues have described emotional co-workers as "loose cannons" or having "hair-trigger" personalities. And when a student has gone off "half-cocked," psychologists have advised employees to "keep their powders dry" and to review "bullet point" guidelines for handling volatile personalities.
In the same way that the U.S. is flooded with millions of guns (there are 90 guns per 100 Americans), so our newscasts -- "sure as shootin' " -- are exploding almost nightly with murder stories, reflecting the newsroom mantra: "If it bleeds, it leads."
When the local story becomes a national tragedy, there is "new ammunition" for both gun control supporters and opponents of fire arm bans in such places as elementary schools, day care centers, churches, or even the neighborhood bar!
The world of guns has had our rhetoric in its sights for a very long time. And our wounded language -- now more than ever with a gun to its head -- is telling us that our culture is on the firing line.

A 'Lehman moment'
It's been largely forgotten, but in the spring, there was a difficult diplomatic incident involving Chinese dissident Chen Guangcheng. While delicate negotiations were underway, Mitt Romney jumped in, condemned U.S. officials during their tense diplomatic talks with China, and blasted the "day of shame for the Obama administration."
Soon after, the criticisms looked ridiculous, and even Bill Kristol said Romney appeared "foolish." The Republican candidate, unconcerned with the international implications, thought it'd be smarter to attack first, then get the facts, and then think it through.
Sound familiar?
When a campaign is struggling and starts to feel as if defeat is likely, the candidate and his or her aides start getting antsy, wondering how to shake things up. It's a dangerous dynamic – the desperation starts clouding judgments, leading to unnecessary risks that do far more harm than good.
Romney's decision to attack President Obama over Guangcheng fits the model, but the smear involving violent mobs in Libya and Egypt is worse – not only is it practically a textbook example of a gamble gone horribly awry, but it's unfolding in the campaign's final stretch.
The inexperienced Republican, whose campaign dismissed foreign policy as a "distraction" on 9/11, has managed to look craven, dishonest, and incompetent, all at the same time. Worse, Team Romney managed to pull off this trick twice – once last night, then again this morning.
Romney's Democratic critics haven't even had to say much, with mainstream pundits issuing many of the most notable condemnations. Even Peggy Noonan, speaking on Fox News, conceded this morning, "I don't feel that Mr. Romney has been doing himself any favors in the past few hours."
Ben Smith reported that a variety of Republicans are equally disappointed. "They were just trying to score a cheap news cycle hit based on the embassy statement and now it's just completely blown up," said a very senior Republican foreign policy hand, who called the statement an "utter disaster" and a "Lehman moment."
Josh Marshall had a good piece on this, arguing that Romney is proving that he's simply "not ready" for the presidency.
Romney's attack was not only ill-judged and ill-timed, it was actually based on what appears to be a demonstrable falsehood. Romney, or folks writing in his name at his campaign, claimed that the administration's first response to the attacks was to issue a press release condemning the anti-Islam film which had helped trigger the attack. This they picked wholesale from the right-wing blogosphere.
In fact, according to all available press reports and the account of the State Department, the press release in question came from the US Embassy in Egypt and preceded the attacks. So to claim it was a response to the attacks was simply false. So while American diplomats were dying in the field, Romney pops up with an egregious attempt to politicize the deaths with a flat out lie.
Behind the curtains a more chaotic and rash picture emerges.
The statement from the Romney campaign was initially released by Romney press secretary Andrea Saul at 10:09 PM – but under an embargo until midnight on September 12th. In other words, it was embargoed until September 11th was over.
Then a few minutes later at 10:24 PM the embargo was lifted and reporters were told they could use the statement immediately. There was no clear explanation of the change.
Bear in mind, this was all happening while attacks on US personnel abroad were ongoing…. The campaign also authorized Romney's top foreign policy advisor to give a blistering interview attacking the president while the attacks were continuing.
Romney could have begun the process of putting this right this morning, but instead, after falling into a hole, he decided to keep digging.
I don't know if Romney will be elected president in eight weeks, but I do know crude incompetence to this degree is exceedingly rare in national politics.

Just as the GOP convention was about to kick off in late August, the US Chamber of Commerce made an unusual announcement. Although it had never in its 92-year history endorsed a presidential candidate, the organization vowed to help pump $10 million into ads in seven battleground states urging voters to support lawsuit restrictions endorsed by George W. Bush and opposed by John Kerry. Calling it "a make-or-break election for legal reform," chamber president Thomas Donohue charged that "lawsuit abuse destroys jobs, drives doctors out of business and forces companies into bankruptcy."
The ads put the 3 million businesses of the theoretically nonpartisan chamber squarely in Bush's corner. The Bush campaign has hit hard at the Kerry/Edwards ticket for allegedly being pawns of plaintiff's attorneys. Indeed, the lines could not be more clearly drawn. John Edwards had a meteoric career as a malpractice lawyer, while the Bush forces have made attacks on "junk lawsuits" a mainstay of their stump rhetoric."You can't be pro-doctor and pro-patient and pro-plaintiff's attorney at the same time," said Bush in mid-August in Michigan. "I made my choice. I am for medical liability reform now."
The crowd applauded, although voters have never shown the slightest interest in "tort reform." But regardless of whether or not the issue helps Bush get re-elected, its heightened prominence demonstrates the escalation of the stakes in what is now a thirty-year-long war by the ultra-right to disembowel the civil justice system and make America safer for companies to work their unfettered will. Piggybacking on the campaign of an incumbent President–who made lawsuit restrictions a central part of his governorship in Texas–the tort reformers have seized on this election as their defining moment.
In Texas, however, the future is already here, thanks to several generous helpings of "reform." Anyone who wants a glimpse of what's in store for the rest of us would do well to look at Bush's legacy in his home state.
Jacqueline Smith has a hard time with the idea that suing over her mother's rape in a nursing home is "frivolous." Smith voted against Proposition 12, a constitutional amendment on the Texas ballot that capped medical malpractice awards. No state in history had ever taken the radical step of changing its constitution to restrict lawsuits. Smith, a 54-year-old freelance writer, didn't believe the TV commercials claiming that suits by greedy lawyers were driving up malpractice insurance premiums to the point that doctors were quitting medicine. Nevertheless, in September 2003 Proposition 12 passed by a razor-thin majority.
Smith herself had never had reason to sue anyone, until 2:30 am on November 7, 2003, when a male nurse noticed that a patient's door at the Heritage Duval Gardens Nursing Home in Austin was closed when it should have been open. He heard crying, and when he snapped on the light, he saw a man leap from the bed of an elderly woman. The woman was naked. The man's pants were around his ankles. The man, according to police, was Kevin Arceneaux, a 6-foot, 190-pound nurse's aide. Still sobbing softly in her bed was Smith's mother, an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient. Two months later, police arrested Arceneaux and he confessed.

How to beat Yahoo at its own game
Mining inefficiencies in the online ad market can be a great way to make a buck, writes Business 2.0 Magazine.
(Business 2.0 Magazine) -- Where there are markets, naturally there are middlemen, from market makers on the New York Stock Exchange to people who buy stuff cheap on Craigslist and resell it on eBay (Charts, Fortune 500).
One lucrative -- and controversial -- form of arbitrage is now going on in the online ad markets. It's known as "traffic arbitrage," and shrewd players are netting thousands of dollars a day exploiting the price differences among Google, Yahoo, Microsoft (Charts, Fortune 500), and the lower-tier markets. "It's kind of disgusting how simple it is," one big arbitrageur told me.
The concept is straightforward: Buy cheap traffic for your website from one search engine, get paid more for the ads streamed from another.
Arbitrage is a major revenue source for some businesses. Shopping comparison sites, for instance, work the major search engines -- buying ads on, say, Google (Charts, Fortune 500) -- to send traffic to their sites, which contain ads served up by Yahoo or Google itself. But anyone with some drive and a few hundred dollars can do it.
First, pick an industry, be it a big-volume subject like dating or a narrower topic like gourmet food. Set up a site, but don't buy an expensive domain name, since you're not looking for people typing directly into the browser's address bar. Write a few basic paragraphs about your subject, slap on some images, open an account with Google's AdSense program, and you're off.
Next, you'll need traffic. Get it by bidding on keywords and writing up one-and two-line ads for your website that appear next to the search results. Google has long been the favorite place to buy paid search ads, but traffic arbitrageurs say that right now Microsoft's AdCenter is a great source of cheap, good-quality traffic.
That's partly because AdCenter, which launched in May 2006, has fewer advertisers than Yahoo (Charts, Fortune 500) and Google, so the competition isn't as great. Also, traffic arbitrageurs say Microsoft's system is less discriminating than Google's, which, in addition to the price you're willing to pay per click, evaluates various attributes of your site when considering how high to place your ad in its paid search results.
Google, in fact, has been cracking down on some pure arbitrage sites on the grounds that they provide a lousy user experience.
So which keywords do you bid on? The pros will bid on thousands of keywords for a single site, with lots of variations of phrases and even misspellings, which are cheaper than words spelled correctly.
You can use a keyword tool like Keycompete.com to see what the competition is doing, and Microsoft's AdCenter will help you generate keywords. Google's traffic estimator gives a range of prices for what it will cost to land your ad in a top position. Compare that with the cost of the same keywords at Microsoft's AdCenter and you'll get an idea of the spread, although you'll have to experiment before you really know what works.
"Just keep playing it until you hit your sweet spot," suggests Kris Jones, who runs Internet marketing firm PepperJam.
Be inventive. If your site is about gourmet food, Jones suggests you lure visitors by bidding on low-cost phrases like "gourmet jelly," which, in a recent check at MSN, was going for a few cents a click.
Then you can host ads for businesses selling "sturgeon caviar" -- advertisers that might pay a few dollars per click on Google. Will everyone searching for jelly click on your caviar ad? No. But if even a small percentage of them do, you'll soon be eating sturgeon too.

FCA US , the former Chrysler Group, on Friday expanded a U.S. regional recall of older cars with potentially defective driver-side Takata air bags to a global action, affecting more than 3.3 million vehicles.
FCA was one of five automakers asked by U.S. regulator National Highway Traffic Safety Administration last month to expand a recall of such vehicles beyond a limited area with high humidity.
The FCA total for Takata Corp -related recalls is now 3,672,770, including affected passenger-side airbags.
The number of vehicles recalled globally, for all automakers, since 2008 for Takata air bag problems tops 24 million.
Takata has said that extended exposure to...

New research results indicate that cultural practices including temperature and soil moisture management between lettuce crops can provide up to 100 percent destruction of lettuce drop disease.
Mike Matheron, a University of Arizona Extension plant pathologist based at the Yuma Agricultural Center, Yuma, Ariz., shared his findings with growers, pest control advisers, and others during the 2008 Preseason Vegetable Workshop in Yuma sponsored by Cooperative Extension.
Lettuce drop is a fungal disease that costs growers in the low-desert lettuce production areas of Yuma County, Ariz., and the Bard-Winterhaven area of Imperial County, Calif., up to about $2.5 million annually depending on the crop value, Matheron says. Losses per acre range from 1 percent to 5 percent of the crop, and even higher during wet years. A 50 percent to 100 percent crop loss can occur in individual fields.
Lettuce drop disease is caused by two fungal pathogens, Sclerotinia minor and S. sclerotiorum, sometimes called minor and major respectively. The sclerotia of the S. minor pathogen are smaller than the S. sclerotiorum. The pathogens cause brown decay in lettuce that destroys the plant crown tissue causing the plant to wilt and collapse and become unharvestable.
"To control lettuce drop, you must neutralize the Sclerotinia sclerotia," Matheron says. "The ways to accomplish this are to prevent sclerotia from germinating and to destroy the sclerotia."
Lettuce drop affects head, romaine, and leaf lettuces. The S. sclerotiorum pathogen occasionally affects cauliflower and cabbage while S. minor has been found in broccoli, but these are minor hosts in the low desert compared to lettuce.
Over the last two decades Matheron has studied the efficacy of fungicides currently on the market and products awaiting registration. While fungicides provide some sclerotia control, Matheron is convinced that cultural practices can eliminate most sclerotia.
"Managing cultural conditions including hot summer temperatures combined with some irrigation to wet the soil can achieve up to a 100 percent reduction of sclerotia," Matheron says. "If you don't have live sclerotia, you won't have any disease. Basically you get 100 percent disease control."
Soil temperature trials were conducted for eight weeks in 2007-2008 in fields between lettuce crops. Matheron buried packets of S. minor and S. sclerotiorum up to 2 inches deep in the furrow.
Irrigation every one to two weeks kept the soil moist. Soil temperatures in separate plots averaged 79 degrees and 90 degrees. Then 300 sclerotia were collected from the trials for laboratory analysis.
In soil with S. minor sclerotia, germination was reduced in the soil averaging 79 degrees. Soil at the 90-degree average reduced germination by 50 percent.
"The sclerotia weren't able to germinate under higher temperatures," Matheron says. "At six to eight weeks, some sclerotia even disintegrated."
In tests with S. sclerotiorum, living sclerotia numbers were reduced over several weeks, but took longer to kill the pathogen due to its larger size. After eight weeks nearly 100 percent of the sclerotia were dead.
"Think of sclerotia as seeds," Matheron says. "The sclerotia are pathogen seeds and we're trying to reduce sclerotia that are capable of germination and causing lettuce drop. The more you destroy the fewer are available to cause lettuce drop."
Trials focusing on soil moisture included irrigated and non-irrigated ground. Irrigated soil was watered every one to two weeks and the mean soil temperature was 90 degrees. Sclerotia packets were placed in the furrow.
Results indicated a higher S. minor destruction rate in six to eight weeks in the irrigated soil. In non-irrigated tests, germination was also reduced, yet Matheron was unsure if the sclerotia were permanently damaged or in dormancy. Trials with S. sclerotiorum showed similar results to the S. minor findings.
Matheron conducted experiments with flooded soil. In three trials, sclerotia were buried 0, 4, and 8 inches deep in soil-filled buckets for a short period of time. Water was maintained 1 inch above the soil line. The mean soil temp from 0 to 8 inches deep ranged from 86 to 92 degrees.
After one week, most S. minor sclerotia were dead and all were destroyed after two weeks. S. sclerotiorum were hardier because of the larger size. After one week 20 percent had germinated, but all were dead after two to four weeks.
Effective control of lettuce drop disease using cultural techniques requires other management responsibilities. "Even a field sanitized with S. minor can face pathogen reintroduction," Matheron says. "If someone walks into a field containing sclerotia and then walks in a sclerotia-free field, the second field can be re-infested."
Matheron also shared results from trials over the last four years on the efficacy of fungicides for lettuce drop control. He evaluated the products Botran (Gowan Co.), Contans (Advan), Endura (BASF), Rovral (Bayer CropScience), Serenade (AgraQuest), and Switch (Syngenta). He also tested products awaiting registration including Fluazinam, LEM 17, and Polyoxin-D.
Results on current fungicides showed the best S. minor control was about 50 percent with Endura, about 45 percent with Rovral, and just above 40 percent with Botran. For S. sclerotiorum, Contans provided near 50 percent control, about 45 percent with Rovral, and Endura controlled about 35 percent. Each value is the mean from four trials with two applications of each product per trial.
In efforts to achieve even higher lettuce drop control with fungicides, Matheron mixed full rates of two products and applied them at thinning and later in the season. Applying Endura and Rovral achieved a near 80 percent control of S. minor and 65 percent control of S. sclerotiorum.
In the trials of unregistered fungicides, Fluazinam provided 75 percent control of S. minor and slightly less for S. sclerotiorum. LEM 17 controlled about two-thirds of S. minor sclerotia and about one-third of the S. sclerotiorum. Control with Polyoxin-D was less than half for S. minor and under 20 percent for S. sclerotiorum.
Matheron is confident that improved cultural practices combined with fungicide use can greatly reduce lettuce drop. "The widespread adoption of a summer-flooding treatment of fields infested with sclerotinia would greatly reduce the incidence of lettuce drop. Coupled with the care of not reintroducing the pathogen to those fields, this cultural treatment could be an excellent means of minimizing this disease. Fungicides could be used in fields that are not suitable for flooding."
Currently there are no lettuce drop disease-resistant, commercially-acceptable lettuce varieties on the market, Matheron says.

Third one in the school made series from my sketchbook.
The original idea was making a silly IMA-FIRIN-MA-LAZOR!... as I draw the mouth, things started to get a bit more imaginative and so I kept on drawing. My classmate told he looked like Kirk Hammett from Metallica, but I was looking for something more classier so Jimi came to my mind.
As always, scanned and then lineworked with Photoshop 7, also resized.
(Guitar sucks, think of it has an alternative Flying V)
Hope you guys like it!

Winner of Your Best Squid or Octopus Recipe
Congratulations to SouffleBombay, whose Sweet & Spicy Calamari won this week's contest for Your Best Squid or Octopus , earning her a sleek All-Clad d5 Stainless Steel French Skillet from Williams-Sonoma, plus big prizes from Viking, OXO and Tiny Prints, and a spot in the next food52 cookbook!
Photos: SouffleBombay with her kids who cook; her winning Sweet & Spicy Calamari.
Q&A with SouffleBombay
- Describe an early food experience that has influenced the way you think about food and/or cooking.
- When I was 9 I made a cake for my family from my first cookbook (which I had received for Christmas.) Believe it or not it was a Sesame Street Cookbook! I made a crazy chocolate cake covered in popcorn of all things -- it was called a Blizzard Cake. As I carried the cake out to my four siblings, mom, dad and grandmom -- all eyes upon me and my cake -- I felt empowered and excited. I swear that right then and there was the defining moment for me [in food] and I can vividly recall how I felt. Since then I have been smitten with cooking up tasty treats for my family and friends!
- What's your least favorite food?
- I am seriously a picky eater -- but I will go with oysters! Blech!
- What is the best thing you've made so far this year?
- I LOVE cooking with my kids (9 and 6) so anything we whip up is high on my list. Last week my 6 year old daughter took the lead on making a simple appetizer of chicken wrapped in bacon served with a BBQ dipping sauce. Dad grilled it up and, I have to say, seeing her satisfied little face as we all enjoyed it made it memorable!
- Describe your most spectacular kitchen disaster.
- Just married and missing home a bit, I cooked up a chicken as my Mom and Dad did most Sundays. When I went to cut it ... no meat! I was so upset, I couldn't understand what kind of a store sells a chicken with no meat! I put it in the trash and cried! My bewildered husband, who quietly walked over to the trash, took a look at the chicken and said "Sweetie, it was just upside down!"
- What is your idea of comfort food?
- Appetizers ... anytime! Me, my husband and friends with some great apps and a cocktail is bliss for me!
- Apron or no apron?
- No apron.
- What's your favorite food-related scene in a movie?
- Think it had to do with Johnny Depp and Chocolate ... remember Chocolat? So sexy! BOTH Johnny AND the chocolate!
- If you could make a show-stopping dinner for one person, living or dead, who would it be?
- Cary Grant! LOVE him! He would probably make me laugh the whole time!
- You prefer to cook: a. alone, b. with others, c. it depends on your mood
- It depends on my mood.
- When it comes to tidying up, you usually: a. clean as you cook, b. do all the dishes once you've finished cooking, c. leave the kitchen a shambles for your spouse/roommate/kids to clean.
- B, unless it's a huge party I am prepping for in which case I clean as needed and the hubs takes care of the trail of debris behind me!
- SouffleBombay and her daughter in a winning baking moment; the lovely All-Clad d5 Stainless Steel French Skillet she's won from Williams-Sonoma!

PUEBLO, Colo. (AP) — The president of the Colorado Farm Bureau says fruit growers and ranchers are having some crops go unpicked and animals untended because they can't get a dependable supply of field workers.
Don Shawcroft said Wednesday the U.S. Senate needs to pass a comprehensive immigration reform bill, a measure that House Republicans have rejected.
The Pueblo Chieftain reports (http://tinyurl.com/k7adxdp ) Shawcroft said under the current visa program, growers aren't able to get workers when they need them.

Three games, three clean sheets for Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
The Canadian squad played D.C. United to a scoreless draw on Saturday night, but it all could have been different had Joe Cannon and Davide Chiumiento not teamed up to prevent Hamdi Salihi scoring a 67th-minute header from a corner kick.
The Albanian connected well from the set piece, but Cannon's hand and Chiumiento's head combined to clear the danger.
"I'll give him a kiss, or maybe take him to [Italian restaurant] Cioppino's," Cannon quipped to reporters when asked to describe Chiumiento's goalline clearance. "It was great. Davide and the rest of the guys played well, and I wish we could have rewarded our fans with a goal."
That lack of a goal led a number of players and the coach to suggest a draw wasn't quite good enough against a D.C. United team that opened the season with two defeats.
"D.C. United certainly played well and made it difficult for us," head coach Martin Rennie said. "I know they've had a couple of difficult results, and were certainly up for the game, and worked hard for their point.
"A couple of times in each half, we got our momentum going and we looked quite dangerous, but we didn't get enough of that. We didn't get behind enough, didn't put enough balls in the box, and didn't make their goalkeeper make any saves."
Chiumiento, who played hero on the night to preserve the point and made a few more tackles than usual in midfield, felt his performance offensively fell a bit short of his usual standards, despite his impressive defensive effort.
Along with Eric Hassli, Sebastien Le Toux, and Camilo Sanvezzo, Chiumiento suggested Vancouver's offensive four could have done better.
"We did easy mistakes," Chiumiento said. "Last balls, easy passes – everybody did easy mistakes. Even easy one-twos, or balls we put on the inside; we made bad decisions and bad passes. At this level, you have to play well and make good passes, otherwise it's difficult to score."
Still, for a club that often lost matches in 2011 when things didn't always flow on attack, the point is still a positive.
"There's lot of room for improvement, but when you're not connecting in all those areas, you want to make sure you're hard to beat," Rennie said. "Sometimes, when you're not doing those things, you lose a sucker punch at the other end. Who knows? That point could end up being important for us in the long run."

You could nearly taste it.
It was about this time last week the confidence around the Chicago Fire was higher than its been in a very long time. For good reason: the team had been victorious in an impressive seven of eight games, scored some brilliant goals and pushed themselves to the brink of playoff qualification.
The Men in Red headed to Kansas City last Friday knowing a win would push them to first place in the Eastern Conference for the first time since May 2008. But a flat first half performance forced the side to chase the rest of the game and eventually resulted in a 2-0 loss.
Worse than that, somewhat curious dismissals of defender Gonzalo Segares and head coach Frank Klopas meant the team was without the pair for Wednesday night's clash vs. Philadelphia.
HIGHLIGHTS: Union 3, Fire 1
And then that happened.
An even flatter performance against a lowly Union side saw the Fire drop a 3-1 result, putting to end the team's nearly two-year, 19-game home unbeaten streak against the Eastern Conference.
It was a night in which the easy pass was hit too hard and the difficult one too soft, players often looked a step late and the team seemed a little disjointed. Even trailing 2-0, the Fire fought back with a Dominic Oduro goal in the 69th minute and looked good to equalize before substitute Guillermo Franco was sent off for a late challenge on Brian Carroll.
From there, just getting a point would have been good enough but pushing forward, the team was caught out once again late.
"I think it was the worst game we've played of the season," said assistant coach Leo Percovich in the post-game press conference. "Especially when we play at home you never expected that and tonight, humbling. They played, we saw the pressure and we put too much pressure on ourselves."
Perhaps most frustrating, it marked the 19th time in 31 games this season the Fire have conceded the first goal and the 11th time they've done so inside the first 25 minutes.
While earning eight comeback wins is impressive, sooner or later giving up the first one was going to bite the Fire admitted Patrick Nyarko.
"We have to focus on not giving up an early goal, we've done that way too many times. Fortunately we've been able to come back but at some point your luck runs out, so we need to avoid going down early."
"This is soccer, this is not a science. Sometimes soccer works on emotion," said Percovich. "Sometimes these things happen and they happen in the worst moments. You never expect it. That's why we reorganize. Try to take the experience of what happened tonight and get ready for the next games because there's another opportunity three, four days later."
That opportunity comes with another high-profile, nationally televised clash on NBC Saturday afternoon (2:30pm CT) at second place New York.
Even with the last two results, playoff qualification is far from lost but one thing that is would be the game in hand the Fire have so often had on the teams around them this season.
Equal on points with Red Bull, if the Fire can go to New Jersey and sneak a win, they'll still have a grasp on second place in the East and depending on what Columbus or Houston do Saturday, could still clinch a playoff spot this weekend.
Considering Red Bull is 11-1-3 at home this year, a draw could still put the Fire in a very good position with two games left.
A loss on Saturday though will make things in the tight Eastern Conference playoff race very difficult.
No one said it would be easy.

The biggest thing holding back the Bruins' Providence (AHL) farm club from staying in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race has been goaltending.
Three netminders — Nolan Schaefer, Michael Hutchinson and Matt Dalton — have all had their chance to shine. Other than some brief glimpses of brilliance, they mostly failed.
So while the Bruins mainly acquired Anton Khudobin at the trade deadline as an emergency fill-in should Tim Thomas or Tuukka Rask suddenly be struck down, the opportunity to upgrade the farm team's puck-stopping was a positive side effect.
As Bruins assistant general manager Don Sweeney told Dan Hickling of the Providence Journal this week:
"We've had a book on him. You like to think you have a book on all the players you're trying to acquire. As well as [your] assets. …
"I think the goaltending situation with Khudobin was reflective of [needs] up here [in Boston]. Inevitably that's going to change the outlook in Providence."
The change in outlook revealed itself last night with the P-Bruins defeating Charlotte, 4-2, behind 25 saves from Khdobin. Another of the P-Bruins' newest acquisitions, Stefan Chaput, scored one of Providence's goals.
The P-Bruins' problems this season have been plentiful beyond the goaltending. The defense is small, the offense is streaky and the special teams have been abysmal. Khudobin's arrival isn't going to fix all that.The P-Bruins made other acquisitions, including Chaput, David Laliberte and Boris Valabik via trade, and Ryan Donald and Alain Goulet as call-ups from Reading of the ECHL.
There's no telling if the change in personnel did enough to make the P-Bruins a playoff participant — they have to make up 12 points and have just 18 games left on their schedule — but every team has a better chance to win, and young players have a better environment to develop, when the goaltending is top-notch.
In Khudobin, the P-Bruins might at least have a pillar to build on.
