All 47 pre-schoolers otherwise known as Senate Republicans of the 112th congress voted down the non-binding Obama budget the other day. They were joined by 51 Democrats, 1 Independent Democrat and heroic Vermont Independent Bernie Sanders. The 99-0 vote puzzled more than a few Obama supporters. Why would the senate Democrats go against their man in the White House? Quite the opposite was true. The Democrats didn't go against Obama, they supported Obama in exposing their disapproval of the ploy of senate Republicans who were actually the ones to offering up a republican initiative based on a February Obama budget. Their sole purpose was to embarrass the president. They did the same thing in the house where their nonsense also failed to garner a single vote at 414-0. The Obama budget was introduced by radical right-wing South Carolina Tea Party freshman representative Mike Mulvaney.
You see these little politically prepubescent ciphers have never made a secret of their singular reason for serving in the senate and house. It's to destroy the president. That's it and whatever it takes to get enough dense Fox-poxed Americans to vote Barack Obama out of office, well, by God, they'll do it.
The Republicans actually introduced a total of 5 budget proposals in the Senate in succession including the Ryan budget that passed the House in March. All of which failed and all of which contained vicious cuts for the poor and infirm and endless favors for the wealthy.
The budgets are part of the grand scheme. Make Obama look like a tax and spend socialist and the goobers will put the likes of Mitt Romney and his corporate dictators waiting in the wings into office. That's the plan. Blame Obama for everything the Republicans are responsible for because of their refusal to raise revenues through meaningfully closing loopholes and taxing the uber-rich at a fair rate.
Just a quick look at the budget Obama would actually like to get passed. He would never think of privatizing Medicare. He would never turn Medicaid into a block grant program. What happens when the dough runs out? If you make over a quarter of a mill a year, say bye bye to your Bush tax cuts. He's also pushing a $350 million stimulus package for the hiring of teachers and police. Or rehiring might be more accurate given red states fired these public sector employees to make the president's unemployment figures look much worse than they were. Those are just a few budget items being denied the American public.
There was other legislative action you might not be aware of as well. There's HR 4970. It's titled the Violence Against Women Act. It was sponsored by republicans because there's this notion out there that there exists a GOP 'War against Women'. What??? Why we just passed an act protecting women. Whatever could the socialist, anti-Christ, liberal media be talking about? Well first of all it's not as if the republicans created a whole new act. It's been around for 18 years, being upgraded in 2000. They just renewed the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) through 2016. They did manage to please their bigoted base in leaving out provisions of a senate passed bill that would have extended protections for battered women who are illegal immigrants (instant justice in Tea Party parlance), Native American women who are assaulted on reservations by non-Indians (what the ef could that possibly be about?) and of course no expanded protection for those horrible gays, lesbians and transsexuals…or as the typical right-winger would say, "Let 'em die."
Republican house members also soundly defeated a democratic attempt to protect the identity of victims who report domestic violence allegations to law enforcement and other agencies. The GOP had to burn some midnight oil to keep that one out of HR 4970 since such protections are already written into the law. Not any more if the GOP has its way! Democrats insist that the republican bill will compromise confidentiality protections and endanger the victims. Republicans could give a shit. If you ain't packin' you deserve to get knocked around. And if you're gay, lesbian or the least bit different and in the proximity of a right-wing bigot-house, bring on the Castle Doctrine.
Voterama in Congress and Roll Call, the organizations that track such votes also point to HR 4310. This legislation was voted down in the house. Remember how republicans are always wanting to cut, cut, cut? That's their mantra. They never let up. Cut, cut, cut!!! But alas that only applies to programs that potentially save lives and help the poor. If some bleeding heart house bill wants us out of Afghanistan or wants an amendment to delay development of a new nuclear bomber, say, oh HR 4310, there's no interest whatsoever on the part of republicans to cut, cut, cut. That's why HR 4310 got voted down by a substantial 113-303 margin. A yes vote would have promoted a prompt withdrawal from Afghanistan. Why wait until the Obama date of 2014 when you can enrich war profiteers for at least 2 more years and deaths of our soldiers be damned.
The cut, cut, cut crowd saw no problem in leaving a tidy $18 billion in the nuclear bomber coffers for the purpose of 'developing' replacements for some of our tired old nuke war birds with brand-spanking new models that are generally built with contracts awarded to those corporations who know how the game is played if you get my drift. This money is just for 'developing' the replacements. Back in '97, you could build one of these airborne trinkets for about $2 billion a copy. By the time the new program kicks in, $5 billion per might be conservative. But, of course, think like a right-winger and salivate over the potential human lives these babies could snuff out – you start getting Hiroshima numbers and they're cheap at twice the price.
Just as individuals are known by the company they keep, politicians are known by the legislation they pass, don't pass or don't allow to be passed. A cursory read of republican legislative accomplishments these past couple of years would render them undeserving of even a single vote to return any of them to congress.
You've got a potentially great president and some very bright and decent democratic candidates. Need I say more?

I recently went to lunch with my fiance's sister-in-law. We get along really well but are not very close. Right at the end of our meal she asked me if she was going to be one of my BMs. I was completely thrown off and told her I hadn't decided what I was going to do yet.
I originally had planned to have my best friend and my fiances sister (who I am VERY close to) as BMs, and that was it. I don't know how to tell her my plans without hurting her feelings. Or maybe I should just let her be apart of the wedding? Please help!

The same thing happened to me! It super awkward but I would stick to what you want to do. I agree with MegaShay and maybe have her be incorporated in the ceremony another way. Good Luck!
Posted 26 May 2009 - 12:01 PM
Your fiance's SIL asked about being a BM? That is RIDICULOUS to me unless you guys were close - but actually ASKING if you are going to be a BM is ssoo tacky to begin with, IMHO. I would absolutely NOT have her in the wedding just to "not hurt her feelings." You will likely regret it ... especially if you don't think she is someone you want standing up for you. Even if you guys do get along ok, it's about who YOU want to be a part of your day in that special way - not if they think they should be entitled to be a part of it.
Posted 26 May 2009 - 12:04 PM
Wow, that takes alot of nerve! I wouldn't have her in your wedding out of fear of hurting her feelings, you should have the people that you want in your wedding. I agree with Megan that you can have her participate in other ways. Or not at all, if you don't want to! And I don't think you should have to explain your choices, but if you feel that you have to, tell her that you are keeping it a small and intimate wedding party.
Posted 26 May 2009 - 12:28 PM
Wow - I can't believe she actually asked you if she was in your wedding - very tacky and rude. If she has to ask, she should know she's not in it. You aren't under any obligation to have anyone in your wedding, especially FI SIL, especially if you aren't close. You can, as Megan said, have her do a reading, but again, if you aren't close, do you really want her to have a part in your ceremony, just to appease her?
Posted 26 May 2009 - 12:55 PM
I agree with the other girls and would tell her that you've decided you want a really small and intimiate bridal party and you hope her feelings are not hurt. Play it off like your vision is to have 2 people and as long as you voice that you still enjoy her company and you don't want her to be offeded, I'm sure she'll be fine!
Good Luck!
Good Luck!
Posted 26 May 2009 - 12:59 PM
I think its pretty weird of her to ask you that. But i wouldnt worry about hurting her feelings. if you add someone than your fi will feel like he has to add someone, you know these things end up mulitplying. i would stick to your guns and have the 2 you wanted. Just let her know your having a DW and really just wanted a small bridal party and maybe if you want invite her to help you get ready on your wedding day.

I almost had a friend b/c I knew she would be hurt if she wasnt in my wedding (I was the MOH in hers) but then I didnt think that was fair to my other friends who were my best friends and would have to have in place of one of them. In the end I didnt have her, and I can honestly say we are barely friends anymore b/c of it, which just goes to show I made the right decision if thats all it took for her to end a friendship. You have who YOU want to have. Its your day and you get to choose the people who are beside you, noone else does.
Posted 26 May 2009 - 01:05 PM
Wow, that's a toughie because I can't believe she just came out and asked like that. I agree with the other girls- you absolutely shouldn't feel obligated but can include her in other ways if you wish. She really should understand that it's a destination wedding and you wanted a small wedding party.
Posted 26 May 2009 - 01:06 PM
In the end it's your day and you should have the people that you want in your wedding. I actually had to recently tell a friend that she was not going to be in my wedding and i just polity said actually i'm only having blah blah blah (that i've been close with for years, she was someone who i met about 2 years ago) I'm not sure if i hurt her felling but she said she understood. You are going to have tons of bridal party pictures and you want those to represent the people you wanted in your wedding.

Yay! Brunch at Charlie Pepper's!
Will someone explain to me why I have to hurry and beat the After Church Rush to get a seat in the smoking section of a bar?
There must be a lot of Methodists around here or something...

I agree with first commenter. Here in Michigan bar hours begin at noon on Sunday; and a back-slid Episcopalian such as myself (Catholic Light - All of the Ritual; None of the Guilt) needs to hit late service to get the timing right.

And please don't forget the Lutherans.
Why make up sins for sinners to commit?
What are sausages without a beer or a cocktail? And what is waiting without a smoke for an order or for the check, but something akin to Hell already?
And why should the godless have all the fun?

As the only smoker at my evangelical church, I will say we are likely not holding up our end of the smoking-section bar rush. But I'm working on it. I suspect, as noted, that the liturgical churches may dominate in this rush. Their people get less rattled by "new" (19th C) rules of behavior.

Just be thankful that your bars still have smoking sections. Perhaps the patrons have to get their bar time in early so they can get back to Ohio.
- 4:02 PM, April 29, 2007
Some church goers are drinkers and smokers especially in denominations that don't see any problems with it.
The rest of us aren't willing to wait for a seat and can tolerate a little smoke if it means we avoid a 45 minute wait.

What really gets me is from back when I worked maintenace for a theater (stage type, not movie) downtown. Cleaning the house after Gospel musicals never failed to turn up a metric butt-load of empty pint bottles.

When I was a boy in the 50's, a Lutheran basement potluck had the same centerpiece-height blue haze you'd find at an Army reunion. The minister smoked in the sacristy. The church ladies smoked while complaining about the beatniks. The church council smoked, cigarettes, cigars and pipes. I have searched in vain for the new discovery in Scripture that changed all this.
- 11:24 PM, April 29, 2007
If I get the chance, I may brace my pastor for his comments about cigars yesterday. He said, in his opinion, that he'd get a new pastor if that pastor smoked. Thing is, as far as I know, the only arguement you can make for not smoking from the Bible is that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit and should be treated with respect.
This applies to overeating as well, but since he's somewhat rotund, I'm not sure he'd follow that logic out. (I'm also carrying a spare tire so I'm not doing well on this either.)
Humans have the problem as shown by the Pharisees. We like to make rules, even when God doesn't see fit to do so. Sometimes this is good, because I genuinely think people ought not smoke, but we ought to be cautious about giving our opinions the force of Scripture which this pastor hasn't, but some do.

There's nothing unChristian about smoking or drinking, Jesus Christ's first miracle in the Bible was turning water into wine, and it was GOOD wine too. Communion is held with wine in many churches still.
The Bible and Christianity as a faith have no problem with drinking or smoking Sunday or any other day, any more than eating sweets or not exercising.

text: Special Report: Overtesting and Overdiagnosis: A Problem Masquerading as a SolutionScheck, AnneEmergency Medicine News: January 2013 - Volume 35 - Issue 1 - p 16–17 doi: 10.1097/01.EEM.0000425839.34239.9a Special Report Article Outline FastLinks Cyberchondria: A New Term for a New Age Image You could call it 150 shades of gray, and few radiologists would disagree. But to Jerome Hoffman, MD, some imaging studies are black and white, and even put emergency physicians in situations that can increase patient risk. And he is taking such tests to task. Dr. Hoffman and Richelle Cooper, MD, his emergency medicine colleague at the University of California, Los Angeles, stepped into one of the more openly contentious issues currently being debated among medical specialties — when does the Hippocratic directive "do no harm" translate into "do no screening test"? Drs. Hoffman and Cooper, in a declarative editorial this past year, surveyed the data on cancer-detection programs and other conditions more commonly screened in the emergency department, such as pulmonary embolism. The two drew a conclusion that serves as the title of their paper: "Overdiagnosis of Disease: A Modern Epidemic." (Arch Intern Med 2012;172[15]:1123.) This is no longer a mere point of discussion, but constitutes a movement to bring costs under control by pinpointing which interventions and tests actually improve the quality of health care. The American College of Physicians has convened a working group to deduce by consensus common clinical situations in which such screening and diagnostic tests are not warranted. (Ann Intern Med 2012;156[2]:147.) The college plans to publish advisories to help guide such decision-making in the near future, said Amir Qaseem, MD, PhD, the director of the clinical policy medical education division for ACP in Philadelphia. Longer life spans and an increase in chronic disease are reasons for growth in overutilization, he said. "There is patient demand for latest developments and technology," Dr. Qaseem pointed out, as well as a rise in the practice of defensive medicine. Preferring to call reliance on such tests "overuse" rather than overdiagnosis, Dr. Qaseem cited imaging for low back pain and colonoscopy past age 75 as two examples. "Part of the problem, in some cases, is that you do diagnose the disease earlier, but the patient dies at the same time that they would have if you hadn't done the screening test at all," said Dr. Hoffman, a professor of emergency medicine at UCLA. "When that happens, it is easy to be misled and to think that the person did better because they lived seven years after the diagnosis, for example, compared to an average life span of five years with the same type of cancer when the diagnosis is made on a clinical basis," he said. "You think you've added two years to your patient's life. But the truth is that you didn't add anything, except that they knew they were sick two years earlier, so you've actually only added two years to the time that they had the worry about cancer, and that they had to go undergo all the morbidity of our aggressive interventions." In fact, the matter has become such a focus of discussion that conferences are being held this year to present and assess appropriate use of screening tools. One of them, scheduled for February, is rather ominously titled "Selling Sickness," and promises to examine everything from misleading marketing to conflict-of-interest issues in using diagnostics. Meanwhile, a book on the subject, "Overdiagnosed: Making People Sick in the Pursuit of Health," has won favorable reviews. The book, written by three medical professors at the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, has been cited frequently in the press but not without backlash. When two of its authors published a critique of a charity that advocates mammography (BMJ 2012;345:e5132), they were later castigated in an online editorial for the same journal from a physician who accused them of offering "scientifically unsupportable misinformation" aimed at denying women access to screening. (See FastLinks.) If all this sounds new, well, it isn't, said H. Gilbert Welch, MD, the book's lead author. "I first remember hearing about this and getting interested in it after a colleague in radiology many years ago observed he kept finding anomalies on what was then the new technology — CT scans — that could not have been seen using the old technology of chest x-rays," he recalled. "So this became an intriguing problem." Since then, the potential for overdiagnosis has become a "big public health issue," but it actually has been growing since the 1960s and 1970s, said Dr. Welch, a professor of medicine at Dartmouth. That began five decades ago, a period in which advances in screening technology first began providing opportunities for early-disease detection with the advent of mammography, computed tomography, and ways to gauge risk of hypertension, he said. But, now just as then, abnormal results don't provide much clarity about underlying etiology. "Our detection of abnormalities far exceeds our ability to know what to do about them," Dr. Welch said. Nor has screening become the public health imperative that it has been touted to be, he affirmed. Instead, it is a choice. "And the truth is that it typically harms more people than it helps. But the few it helps arguably win big," he added. "So it is a gamble [with] no single right answer." Dr. Hoffman, who called Dr. Welch's book a must-read for emergency physicians grappling with these issues, characterized early detection as often not representing clinical usefulness. He cited the lack of definitive answers on diagnostic imaging and the high number of false-positives from some serologic markers. "Unfortunately, [there are] only a few circumstances where a screening test catches something just at the right time," Dr. Hoffman said. "In many cases, it turns out that it is already too late by the time the screening test turns positive, while in many other circumstances, it is still eminently treatable even if you waited for a clinical diagnosis," he said. And that, he asserted, is the crux of overdiagnosis — finding a disease identifiable by a screening test, but one in which the outcome of such testing might be the creation of a problem rather than the solution. These include many cases of prostate cancer in older men, who are far more likely to die with the disease than from it, he observed. Nowhere has this been more vexing than the hunt for potentially fatal pulmonary emboli. One recent evaluation, funded by the National Institutes of Health, called on physicians to carry out the most feasible risk stratification, but noted that there is not yet the technical refinement to know just what tool is best capable of doing that. (F1000 Med Rep 2012;4:9.) Other institutions have tried to come up with ways to reduce the number of CT angiograms for ED patients suspected of pulmonary embolism by statistical modeling. (World J Emerg Med 2012;3[3]:172.) One center suggests using a mortality-benefit threshold for determining when patients should be referred for testing and when such testing can be eschewed. (Acad Emerg Med 2012;19[9]:e1109.) "Knowledge is not power when it is misleading, or when we don't know how to interpret what we have just learned," Dr. Hoffman said, pointing to imaging for pulmonary embolism as fitting into that unfortunate category. As one radiologist describing scintigraphy for diagnosing pulmonary embolism pointed out, "The deck has always been stacked against us, and our specialty [has been] frequently maligned by the referring physician as practicing 'unclear' and not nuclear medicine." (J Nucl Med 2007;48[9]:1405.) A good rule to follow, according to Dr. Welch, is that the patients generally best positioned to benefit from screening are those at the highest risk of disease and at the lowest risk to die from something else. "My point is that this is a choice," he said. "But to make it, everyone needs to understand the benefit and harm of looking for things to be wrong. We have not been as clear as we should be about all the uncertainty, worry, and unnecessary procedures our tests can lead to, and that the benefit of looking early has been vastly overstated." This is the essence of overdiagnosis, Dr. Hoffman explained, "finding something that is there but which means something different than it did in the other circumstances where we used to look for it because of clinical concern." Now, such findings are made "in the absence of clear-cut clinical concerns" because of the liberal use of advanced technology, he said. PSA testing has played out as a cautionary tale in many cases of a cancer marker that led to too much intervention too soon. Two years ago, Richard Ablin, MD, the self-described discoverer of the prostate-specific antigen, called the test "hardly more effective than a coin toss." ("The Great Prostate Mistake." New York Times March 9, 2010; see FastLinks.) He proclaimed the PSA test a "public health disaster," and noted that it still cannot distinguish between two types of prostate cancer, "the one that will kill you and the one that won't." What about the Pap smear, often the first sign of cervical carcinoma? It can be life-saving but also extraordinarily worry-inducing. "So if it turns out 'no cancer,' you may be told you have atypia or dysplasia, and now you see yourself as having something abnormal," Dr. Hoffman said, adding that this often means much higher patient concern about future cervical testing. The same problem exists for mammography. "You may be told you do not have cancer," but "you are not normal either," he said. The tide may be turning, however, Dr. Hoffman pointed out. Flurries of studies have heightened awareness of the potential for overdiagnosis, and physicians seem far more interested in exploring the topic, compared with even a few years ago. "A lot of good doctors are concerned about this now," he said. But it will take time, more discussion, additional debate, and perhaps even a higher level of acrimony. Technologic advances that result in state-of-the-art tests are like a large, seagoing vessel steaming ahead, fueled for a safer, faster journey.

Back to Top | Article Outline Cyberchondria: A New Term for a New Age Doctors in Great Britain have coined a catchy label for a condition that seems to be surfacing a lot in emergency medicine: cyberchondria (ISME 2012;5:71.) This 13-letter term refers to a state of mind among patients that technologic advances in screening and intervention are the way to reduce health risks. The problem, as it has been reported in the United Kingdom, stems from reliance — make that alleged over-reliance — on tests for everything from assessing the threat of stroke to the likelihood of occult malignancy. A movement there to curtail screening apparently sprang up after a highly regarded physician who had spent decades in stroke research presented himself for stroke-risk screening at his local church where a throng of health-minded residents had shown up for the same thing. The results, not to mention the scene itself, caused him to pronounce the whole thing "nonsense," and his story was carried across England. U.S. physicians are challenged by the same situation. Internet-trolling people not only suspect they have a diagnosis found online, they seek the test they think will prove or disprove their findings. In fact, patients frequently express strong preferences for medical tests or treatments of their own choosing, even when physicians believe those interventions are not beneficial, two doctors observed recently in the Journal of the American Medical Association. (2012;307[2]:149.) And physicians often grant such requests, according to the researchers. "One compelling reason is to avoid confrontation: patient-physician relationships flourish in an atmosphere of trust and goodwill, and physicians rightly worry that disagreement will threaten those relationships," they stated. Not surprisingly, the pair recommend against going along with "the diagnostic or therapeutic intervention … unless a modicum of potential benefit, viewed from a conventional medical perspective, is present." — ASCopyright © 2013 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.

this is the color of furniture/dark brown trim
would like suggestions on colors for the walls including hall way and foyer?
Hello! Because of your dark brown trim, and Seafoam Green furniture. I've picked a few neutral, colors to test in your home. If you like the lighter neutrals for the hall and foyer, you can easily ask for a one-step darker color for the main walls (or vice versa with the darker colors,) if you'd like them to be somewhat different, yet still nice together.

I'm part Canadian, myself.

Then I want to offer a suggestion or idea my younger daughter came up with. She's a scrapbooker, too. She has all sorts of embellishments of various sizes, and hit upon an idea while cleaning out her office (our 3rd bedroom). She found some photo sleeves of various sizes -- four-to-a-page and two-to-a-page -- and thought it would be a great way to organize her embellishments and frames and all! For larger items, she uses full-page document protectors. She now has all her embellishments, organized and protected, in a four-inch binder, where she can lay hands on them easily, without having to search through drawers and piles of "stuff!"

I'm going to get mine organized like that, too!

She also found a good find. Unfortunately, it was from a scrapbook store going out of business in St. Augustine, Florida, where our daughter works. She bought two EK paper towers, each with thirty trays. I bought one of them from her. Now we have our scrapbooking papers organized and handy to get to!Karen Packard Rhodeshttps://email@example.com

Rust's 23 large-scale, color photographs are now on display in the Faces of the World Lounge on the second floor of the Gallagher Student Center. The lounge area is dedicated to bringing awareness of cultures worldwide. The display runs through December and is free and open to the public seven days a week.
Rust was in Ghana in conjunction with Xavier's first service-learning semester in the developing African country. Ten students lived with local families and studied and worked in Ghana this past spring.
Rust uses a subtle mix of anthropology, professional experience and intuition to create photographs that lay bare the underlying thread of humanity common to all people. His masterful use of color, light and composition produce an almost-instant bond of familiarity between subject and viewer, regards of the setting or location.
"The heat in Ghana was oppressive, pushing up towards 100 degrees," Rust says. "That coupled with the high humidity, dust and smog made it even more challenging to capture the images."
A self-described cultural chameleon, Rust says he tries to blend into a culture as much as possible and not be obtrusive. "A translator helped me get to the places I wanted to get to and to meet the people I needed to meet," Rust explains. That included meetings with village and tribal leaders who gave their blessing to Rust's presence in their communities.
"My background is in anthropology so this type of image is my passion," he continues. "No matter the subject my guiding principle remains a quote from cultural anthropologist Ruth Benedict: 'The purpose of anthropology is to make the world safe for human differences.'"
Rust has been director for photography at Xavier for more than 20 years. During his tenure he has traveled on assignment to Nicaragua, Nepal, El Salvador and Guatemala. He is also the official photographer for the Cincinnati Reds and the Cincinnati Bengals. His work has been widely shown and has been recognized with numerous national and regional awards.

They're back, and they didn't get in trouble.
Five members of the Gold Wing Road Riders Association left Kenai on June 22 for a ride to the annual bikers' Wing-Ding in Billings, Mont. Jerry Russell, Don Hamilton, Bob Walker, Don Jones and Dennis Bible all made it safely to Montana and returned last week.
"It was a great trip," Walker said. "We had absolutely fantastic weather all the way there, no rain, and nice and warm. We had fun, fun, fun."
Not only fun, but they won an award, too. On June 28, at Crow's Nest Pass, Alberta, the five riders participated in a bikers' rally, where they won the prize for "Farthest traveled male riders" for 2000. The award was given for their having traveled 2,600 miles to Alberta, and that's not counting 492 more miles to get to Billings.
"That's a very coveted award. Everyone fights to get that one," Jerry Russell said. The "farthest traveled female rider" award went to an Alaska woman from Fairbanks.
"Alaska took them all this year," Walker said.
More than 20,000 bikers attended the Wing-Ding in Montana. The guest star was Kenny Rogers, who did a concert there.
"Dennis looks so much like Kenny Rogers, we had a lot of fun with that," Walker said. "People at the show came up and asked him if he was Kenny Rogers, and we'd say, yeah, he's just traveling incognito with us."
The group also attended the national Gold Wing Road Riders Association's "experienced riders course" which evaluates riding ability, road safety and other achievements of the organization's members.
"They call it 'experienced,' but no matter how experienced you are, you can always learn more," Walker said. "I've owned 45 motorcycles in my life, and I still learned a lot from this course."
Riding with the group to Montana was Debbie Dubois, daughter of Hamilton. Dubois rode with her dad all the way, and enjoyed it so much, she ordered a new 750 Honda Shadow for herself when they returned.
Hamilton's wife, Leslie, made the return trip with him.
"I had a wonderful trip. I didn't even get sore," she said. "The scenery was great, so much different than riding in a car. You don't have a roof over you, and you can look up and see the sky all around you."
Russell agreed that it was a fine experience.
"I've probably made that trip half a dozen times, and each time I swear I won't do it again," he said. "But this time, I'm ready to go again."
Next year's Wing-Ding is planned for North Carolina. Walker said the five riders may go to it.
"Then next year we'll definitely win the plaque for 'Farthest Traveled' again," Russell said. "And we'll only have to go one way to do it."

Police find horrific injuries after man says baby got 'whupping'
Published 2:28 pm, Tuesday, April 29, 2014
A woman and her boyfriend have been arrested in the death of the woman's 13-month-old son earlier this month in northeast Houston.
Trachell Foster and Damien Lamont Henderson, both 23, are charged with injury to a child causing serious bodily injury, according to the Houston Police Department.
Police said Foster had gone to a job interview on Friday, leaving the boy in Henderson's care at the couple's apartment at 9601 West Montgomery. The boy was later taken to Memorial Hermann Northwest Hospital, where he died.
A preliminary examination on the child, police said, indicated he had extensive internal injuries that had been inflicted over a period of time.
According to court documents in the case, Henderson initially told investigators the boy's injuries were burns from the stove. But later, the documents state, he admitted that he had given the toddler "a whupping," lashing him seven or eight times with a belt across the body and chest. He said, the documents state, that he beat the boy on a daily basis with the belt. He also said he hit the baby with his hand and when his hand hurt from the blows, he would batter the child with the back of his hand.
The documents state Foster knew Henderson had been hitting he boy for about two months and it made her uncomfortable.
Officials with the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences said the boy had bruises on his face as well as cuts on his chest and on the back of his upper legs. Some of the injuries were so extensive the tissue in his legs had died and was decaying.
Henderson and Foster are each being held in the Harris County jail in lieu of $50,000 bail.

Originally posted on Fox Sports South | Last updated 12/20/12
Two years ago, when the Braves locked up Dan Uggla with a five-year, 62 million deal following a November trade, the general consensus was the team had solidified the middle of its lineup for years to come. At the time, it was the biggest payout the organization had given to a player in nearly a decade. In 2012, that contract is a headache. The power-hitting second baseman has not performed up to the level of an eight-digit salary in Atlanta hitting just .227 (including a 103 OPS, just barely above league average) with 55 home runs. Though his defense and base-running were respectable in 2012, his bat just cannot find the same pop it had when he was a standout for the Miami Marlins. At this point, it looks like the Braves went into the trade market and bought high. Too high. And even so, Uggla was an All-Star last season on the strength of fan voting theres no denying his popularity in Atlanta, despite his numbers and the relative dearth of quality second basemen in baseball. Despite his offensive inefficiency, Uggla has been the 10th-most valuable second-bagger in baseball (5.9 Wins Above Replacement), just behind Neil Walker, Aaron Hill and Danny Espinosa. Its safe to say that the Braves organization will never see Uggla make the leap into the realm AL East heavyweights Robinson Cano (Yankees), Dustin Pedroia (Red Sox) or Ben Zobrist (Rays), but if he could put together a complete season its not a stretch to assume he could get back within the upper echelon of the games second basemen. Of course, Walker, Hill and Espinosa are not due more than 13 million next season. The three of them wont even make that type of money combined. With Chipper Jones out of the equation, Uggla is now the highest-paid player on the Braves 2013 payroll. Can Uggla cut down on his strikeout numbers? Dan Uggla struck out in 26.7 percent of his at-bats in 2012, more than any other everyday players for the Braves. Of hitters receiving at least 100 plate appearances last season, only free-swinging Juan Francisco, David Ross and Eric Hinske whiffed at a higher rate. The difference is that Uggla not only makes more money than all of those players combined but that, for the most part, he was slotted near the middle of the lineup. Thats why was brought to Atlanta: To knock in runs. As anyone, including Uggla, will tell you, its tough to do that with three strikes against you. Over the past two seasons, only Espinosa (27 percent) and former Brave Kelly Johnson have struck out more among the leagues second basemen. Uggla offsets his strikeout totals by being one of baseballs best middle infielders at drawing walks, but thats not what he was brought in to do. He was meant to be a cornerstone. His power numbers, at times, reiterate why. Of the top-five second basemen in home runs last season, only Milwaukees Rickie Weeks struck out at a similar rate. Dont be like Rickie Weeks. Will Ugglas fielding remain above average? OK, theres a second part to this question: What the heck happened last season? Its safe to assume that since his rookie season, Ugglas work in the field did not garner any Gold Glove recognition. But then, something changed, and suddenly his fielding was a more efficient part of his game than his hitting. Here are Ugglas UZR150 numbers a metric that measures defensive performance in terms of runs saved above average for every 150 games played throughout his career: 2006:5.7 2007: -11.1 2008: 0.8 2009: -9.6 2010: -7.4 2011: -11.4 2012: 1.9 Ugglas defense underwent a fairly steady regression from 2008 through 2011, even posting a league-worst UZR150 among qualified second basemen in his first season in Atlanta, before surprisingly bouncing back to just above average. Advanced defensive statistics do tend to fluctuate, but if Uggla can continue to play at a respectable level in the field while improving his hitting, perhaps 13 million wont hurt quite as much. Regression toward the mean would suggest Ugglas numbers will once again decline (career UZR150 of -4.5). Mathematics, however, does not account for telephone-pole forearms. So anything is possible here. Will he finally live up to his contract? In the end, this is the ultimate question facing Uggla. Being the highest-paid player on a middle-of-the-pack (financially speaking) MLB franchise comes with its own set of pressures and responsibility. And its not like the Braves will have much choice this season. In past years, the multi-purposed Martin Prado could be plugged in during a slump, but it looks like his hands will be full at third base, pending an offseason move by general manager Frank Wren. Brooks Conrad is gone. Its Uggla out there, with fill-ins from Tyler Pastornicky possible. This is a pivotal season for Braves management, which faces upcoming arbitration dates with its young core of Jason Heyward, Kris Medlen, Freddie Freeman and Craig Kimbrel in 2013. This is the final season Atlanta gets to keep that quartet for less than 1 million apiece. Decisions must be made, and the cutting could start at the top. Ugglas contract runs through 2015, but if he does not start producing at his Miami Marlins level, Wren & Co., might start shopping. Thats not to say Uggla deserves to be traded as soon as possible, its just a business decision the Braves might be forced to make if things do not improve. Thirteen million dollars is a heavy burden. Uggla needs to carry it a little higher in 2013.
