In this hour, let's start with a little history about the National Security Agency. In 2003 journalist James Bamford talked with us about his latest book about the NSA. Back then, he said the general public didn't know much about the National Security Agency, by design.
Next, What have the recent leaks about the NSA's surveillance program have revealed? Computer scientist and independent scholar Susan Landau gives us her perspective, and weighs in on the questions of inquiries, and checks and balances.
Then, in 2005, New York Times journalist Eric Lichtblau wrote a series of articles about the surveillance – without warrants – of some Americans' international phone calls and e-mails. The Times won a Pulitzer Prize for their reporting. In 2008, Steve asked Lichtblau about covering the NSA's warrantless wire-tapping program.
After that, when is government surveillance appropriate? Shane Harris talks about the rise of American surveillance, cyber warfare and privacy.
Finally, sales of George Orwell's 1984 went through the roof after the latest news about the NSA's surveillance of Americans' communications. What would defying state control look like these days? Writer and digital activist Cory Doctorow considered the question in his novel, Little Brother. [Broadcast Date: June 28, 2013]

Northwood City Council members are thinking of giving non-union city employees a 3.5 percent pay increase in April.
If passed, the ordinance will give raises to eight non-union management personnel, 14 non-union personnel, and all members of the Northwood Volunteer Fire Department. Council gave the ordinance a first reading at their last council meeting.
City employees have received a 3.5 percent salary increase each year in April since 2002, said Toby Schroyer, finance and revenue director.
"Normally they get a raise every year in April, but it's not guaranteed," he said.
The salaries of non-union employees are reviewed in April because Mr. Schroyer said the city finalizes several union contracts in January.
"We don't want everything to hit all at one time in January," he said.
Non-union city management and their proposed salary increases include:
● Patricia Bacon, city administrator: from $66,191 to $68,510
● Jerry Herman, police chief: from $61,645 to $63,804
● Tom Pack, fire chief: from $54,454 to $56,368
● Tom Cairl, police captain: from $54,096 to $55,978
● Toby Schroyer, finance and revenue director: from $55,657 to $57,616
● Craig Meier, director of public service: from $52,000 to $53,820
● Laura Schroeder, clerk of court: from $41,134 to $42,562
● Heather Sayler, planning, zoning, and economic development coordinator: from $36,034 to $37,284
Members of the fire department also will receive a 3.5 percent raise if the ordinance passes. If approved, their salaries will range from $9.16 an hour for a recruit to $15.31 an hour for a chief of EMS.
The compensation for elected officials will remain the same. Mr. Schroyer said the three councilmen who were elected after March 13, 2003, are paid $7,000 a year. The remaining four councilmen are paid $6,000 annually, and if they are re-elected, their salaries will jump to $7,000 a year.
Mayor Mark Stoner, whose position is part time, is paid $12,000, up from the $11,000 he was paid in 2003.
In 2001, Mr. Schroyer said the city hired a consultant to study the pay scales for all city employees and to compare the salaries to similar area cities. Based on the consultant's recommendations of what the employees should be paid, employees received a raise that ranged from 3.5 percent to 15.38 percent.
Every year since then, council has approved a 3.5 percent raise for employees each April.
Lynn Richey-Goertz, the clerk of council and the city clerk, said council probably will pass the ordinance at its March 24 meeting after it is given three readings. Once passed, the salary increases will go into effect April 4.

A quarter of Americans believe Congress shares power over U.S. foreign policy with the United Nations, according to a recent Annenberg survey.
"There is little that is more important for an American citizen to know than the history and traditions of his country," John F. Kennedy wrote in American Heritage.
The "We the People Program," which touched some 30 million students and 90,000 teachers over 25 years, has been completely eliminated.
Two-thirds of Americans could not correctly name Yorktown as the last major military action of the American Revolution, according to a recent national Gallup survey.

A routine chore for JFK's official photographer became the most important assignment of his career. Much of his moving pictorial record appears here for the first time.
It was a typical motorcade. Cecil W. Stoughton had been in many like it. A forty-three-year-old veteran of the Signal Corps, Captain Stoughton had so impressed John F. Kennedy with pictures of his inauguration that the new President, through his military aide, appointed him his official photographer. In the course of thirty-four months, Stoughton had made more than eight thousand photographs of Kennedy and his family.Read more »

Was the murdered President one of our best, a man of "vigor, rationality, and noble vision" or was he "an optical illusion," "an expensively programmed waxwork"? A noted historian examines the mottled evolution of his reputation.
The murder of John F. Kennedy twenty years ago last month occasioned an overwhelming sense of grief that may be without parallel in our history. When the news first was announced, people wept openly in the streets, and during the painful weekend that followed, as the mesmerizing images of the youthful President and his family were flashed again and again on the television screens, the feeling of deprivation deepened.Read more »

The term "historical fiction" is a sort of oxymoronic category for movies that tell the truth, but not the whole truth, and without the help of God. "The Other Boleyn Girl" fits in this category. Based on the novel by Philippa Gregory, the movie shows the unfolding drama between the historical characters King Henry VIII, his wife Katherine of Aragon, Mary and Anne Boleyn, and more.
The True Story
While the movie can't rightfully be called a "true story" in the sense that it sticks strictly to the facts as they are known, it is, nonetheless, based on a true story. There really was a King Henry VIII who had sexual affairs with both Mary and Anne Boleyn, and who really did create another church -- the Church of England -- separate from the Catholic hierarchy so that he could divorce his wife, Katherine of Aragon, and marry Anne.
The True Anne Boleyn
The feisty rebelliousness in Anne's character was as true in real life as in the movie. The PBS article "The Six Wives of Henry VIII" notes that Anne had a fiery temper that she never learned to control. She put some of her passion into pushing for reforms within the Catholic church, which manifests in the movie when Anne urges Henry to break away from the Roman Catholic Church's' grip when Pope Clement VII refuses to annul Henry's and Katherine's marriage.
The True Mary Boleyn
Mary had a relationship with Henry while still married to William Carey. Mary had two children during her affair with Henry, but, says Philippa Gregory, these were never confirmed as Henry's children. However, in "The Other Boleyn Girl" novel, Gregory portrays Mary's children as being fathered by King Henry, based on the reasoning that the king would not have shared his mistress -- even with his mistress's husband.
Movie and History Trivia
Some details in the movie, such as Anne asking her brother, George, to have sex with her, can't be confirmed by known history. Anne also wielded more power than she appeared to: Several important people were executed because they didn't like her or disagreed with her, including John Fisher, bishop of Rochester, and Sir Thomas More, the king's former friend and adviser, who were both beheaded because of Anne's influence.

Bieber Pulled Over By Cops Again
Justin Bieber was pulled over yet again by cops in his fast Ferrari, making this his second citation in just six months.
The Baby singer, 18, was given a minor traffic citation around 6:25 p.m. in West Hollywood, the city's sheriff's department tells ET. He was ticketed for for making an unsafe left turn and having an expired registration.
Following the incident, Bieber posted an Instagram photo of police-car lights leaving the scene.
Earlier this year, Bieber was pulled over by a California highway patrolman on the 101 Freeway in San Fernando Valley, Calif. for speeding in his Fisker sports car. The teen heartthrob told police that he was being chased by a paparazzo, and Los Angeles prosecutors later filed charges against the photographer.
Justin Bieber posted this photo on his Instagram, which appeared to be taken from inside his Ferrari
why did Justin's rich ass not renew his tags or get someone from his team to do it?

Chevrolet and GMC CNG Bi-Fuel Pickup Production Begins +VIDEO
The Auto Channel asks, "What took so long?"
• SEE ALSO: CNG: The Clean Little Secret That Detroit and the U.S. Media Want To Ignore
• SEE ALSO: Even Oil Rich Iran Recognizes the Importance and Potential of CNG
DETROIT - November 9, 2012: Production of the 2013 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra 2500 HD bi-fuel pickup trucks is underway in Fort Wayne, Ind., and the pickups are available for order by fleet and retail customers through Chevrolet and GMC dealers.
The Silverado HD and Sierra 2500 HD Vortec 6.0L V8 engine runs on gasoline or compressed natural gas (CNG) and seamlessly switches between the two fuels without affecting performance. The CNG and gasoline tanks have a combined range of 650 miles, the longest standard bi-fuel range of any original equipment automaker.
"Customers are choosing our bi-fuel trucks because they provide the same high level of GM truck performance and versatility but can also help businesses control their fuel costs and reduce their carbon footprint," said Ed Peper, General Motors U.S. vice president of Fleet and Commercial Sales.
Watch the CNG Bi-Fuel video news story
The Type-3 single-tank CNG system in the Silverado HD and Sierra 2500 HD is designed to retain more bed space than any competing bi-fuel truck from an Original Equipment Manufacturer. The pickups are available in standard and long-box and two-or-four wheel drive in the extended cab models.
"At Chesapeake, we are converting our fleet of more than 5,000 vehicles to run on natural gas, and having options from GMC and Chevy is critical to help us reach our conversion goal," said Nate Pumphrey, Chesapeake Energy Corp. director of Fleet Operations. "Following our full conversion, we will save $11 million to $12 million annually on fuel costs.
"As a fleet manager, the stable price of natural gas is another major benefit that helps me budget more accurately, and the fuel's reduced emissions align with Chesapeake's commitment to environmental excellence," he said.
The bi-fuel pickups are ordered from the factory, sent to the Tier One supplier IMPCO for installation of the CNG bi-fuel delivery and storage system and then delivered by GM transportation to the dealer or to an upfitter for customer-ordered modifications.
The bi-fuel option is priced at $11,000 above the suggested retail price of the base vehicle. The entire gaseous fuel system meets GM's strict quality, durability and safety testing. The trucks will be covered by GM's three-year, 36,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty and five-year, 100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty and vehicle emissions warranty. The vehicle meets all Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission certification requirements.

A warning: you guys are jumping to very premature conclusions about what the Committee decided (although you may find what they DID decide a consolation prize). That's all I'm saying for now.

There's lots of options I guess.....
One, two, or no MSL's in the '09 Opportunity MER copies flown instead of or complimentary to MSL in '09 One or more MER copies flown in the '11 timeframe Scrap the whole lot and launch an MSL derivative based on the bruce-crane that uses steel girders to drop a rover onto the surface in '13 Doug |

That's all I'm saying for now. I remember a recent article that said they were considering doubling up on the MSL rovers. I really hope this is done, considering the brand new EDL sequence. However, I truely hope the committee has not decided to completely abandon the MER design. Bruce, when will we know the "inside scoop" on this? |

Very soon now. I've already finished a 21 1/2-page article on the Roadmap Committee meeting for Simon; but I'm also trying to sell a greatly shortened version to "Astronomy" or "Sky & Tel" (whichever one will pay me more; Astronomy has already agreed to buy it), and I haven't quite finished that one yet -- or heard back from Sky & Tel yet. Hopefully both those things will happen by tomorrow, and then I'll immediately send off the shortened version (which would appear on Astronomy's webpage, if they buy it), and then send off the longer version to Simon to be published shortly afterward (which Astronomy, at least, has agreed to let me do).

Reply to: | Have you Heard of this name- Hylin by Bronnie |
The novel your father was reading was probably Sword at Sunset by Rosemary Sutcliff. It is a retelling of Arthurian legend. In the novel the character based on Arthur is called Artos and the character based on Guenevere is called Guenhumara, and Hylin is their daughter.I do not know if Rosemary Sutcliff invented the name Hylin herself or found it somewhere. However, if she was trying to write an accurate historical novel based on Arthurian legend, she would have been trying to find or create a name that was Celtic, not Old English, and that should be more related to the modern Welsh language than the English language. It looks like she might have based it on the modern Welsh name Heulwen, which is pronounced "HYL-wen".

Finding Ways for Students to Discover Their Passions

You sir speak the truth. I once came here and called them a crutch class - meaning they act as a crutch to bad players who still want to succeed. I was banned for it. But I like that I am not the only person to have noticed this. And is it just me.. or have they been FotM class since wotlk released?
I began my DK in WOTLK; a Dwarf one way back when Frost was the tank spec. The only reason I stopped playing was that patch after patch, expansion after expansion, it wasn't challenging or difficult at all. My tanking was great, I topped DPS meters, but at least 50% of the time during all of that, I was screwing up my rotation. Truth be told, the only reason I stopped was because I took less and less joy in effortless success, which sums up DK in a nutshell.
Sorry to disappoint you... but those classes will still be the bane of your PvP WITH full gear. I've been hit 100k obliterates with 64% pvp resil and barkskin up. Have alsp been killed by several warriors simply because of them stunlocking me to death.
I'm currently in the progress of gearing up my balance spec, and the absolute classes I hate are: Rogues with shuriken toss, broken ridiculous ability. Warriors. DKs. Hunters and WW monks are INCREDIBLY annoying.
The thing I do when I see them is kite, kite and run. Unless I have ALL of my offensive CDs up, I just stay in a group.
Is anything close to the level of OP that was 3.0 pre-wrath Ret Pallies and 4.0 pre-cata Feral Druids?
Gotta add Boomkins to this. In BGs, especially ones where people are gonna be clumped up like Temple of Katmogu or Strand or Isle they basically have perma instant starsurges after they multi DoT half the other team.
S5 Dks?
My plague strike removed hots, i could easily 2 shot people without knowing wtf i was doing, strangulate, mind freeze, lichborne, ams, amz, blood boil removed stealth, dnd feared people, and the best part, i could rez my team mate as a pet who hitted like a truck, and if you killed me one time i also came back as a pet to melee you to death
Im pretty sure a DK could enter a 3v3 match by himself in S5 and still have a 50-50 chance at winning.
I hate all thats why when i have fresh toon dint go in BGs just earn the honor from TB/WG and justice points
got a fresh half geared ww monk and unholy dk and anything with mal gear is brutal, mages kill just a frost orb, locks and priest kill me in a fear, warriors and dks global me, rogues kill me in cheap, hunters kill me in dumb ass spider/deter snare its just plane ole not fun being undergeared/naked
Shadow priests:/
Blood Deathknights. As a 2v2ing rogue paired with a holy paladin.
I can't kill them, I don't even chip away their health. Every arena I've taken and I've met a Blood DK, have either been been draw, or win when they leave. After I've killed whoever they're teamed up with we can't bring the deathknight down at all. No other class can survive like they can.
Disc priests is a strong second.
"The north still reeks of undeath. Our homelands lay in ruin. Pandaria oozes our hatred and doubt. What hope is there for this world when the Burning Legion again lands upon our shores?" - Eric Thibeau
I hate to fight warriors the most.
Don't really care, I die to all of them as an ungeared resto druid. Some, it just goes a bit faster than others.

Who kisses best in Hollywood? Actors can brag as much about their kissing talents as they want, but it's their movie co-stars who really tell the truth. If an actor is truly a good kisser, you'll read about it in every tabloid.

Added the kissy gifs with the pretty girlfriend to strengthen the point. But he should have been #1, right? Oh well. No worries, its just a silly list, Will Ferrell is on top lol. I just blogged this to showcase these delish kissy gifs.

Reese Witherspoon Spotted Jogging in Brentwood
Reese Witherspoon was spotted jogging in Brentwood with a friend earlier today. ÃÂ Do some for me please! ÃÂ According to the Hollywood Reporter, Witherspoon dropped out of a film in 2011 and a vitamin maker, who was doing product placement in the film is suing for its money back.
NatrolÃÂ Inc. filed the lawsuit yesterday in Los Angeles Superior Court against Envision, its chiefÃÂ Remington ChaseÃÂ and their product placement firm, Brand-in Entertainment.
According to the lawsuit and an attached agreement, Natrol put up $180,000 in 2011 so that Witherspoon's character would show off the plaintiff's product in the movie as her favorite brand of vitamins, the only brand she trusted, a product found at almost any major retailer, and a product that helped her sleep and reduced stress and protected her immune system.
The lawsuit doesn't identity the title of this film, but some of the names of characters detailed in the product integration agreement match up withÃÂ Rule #1,ÃÂ about a woman with OCD, to which Witherspoon wasÃÂ once attachedÃÂ as a producer and star.
I always find product placement in films so random, but I guess with DVR and streaming TV- it's pretty hard to get as much action from commercials as you once did.

Christie meets tonight with group he defended
Governor Christie heads to the Capitol this afternoon for a dinner meeting with a national Republican group he credits with helping him win his first term and that raised nearly $1 million last year from New Jersey-based businesses and companies with state contracts.
The Republican and Democratic governors associations have several events planned in Washington this weekend in conjunction with the National Governors Association's four-day winter meeting, which began Friday.
Christie will attend the National Governors Association's White House Dinner on Sunday night, and he will return there for a meeting with President Obama and other governors Monday morning.
Christie is not expected to attend the National Governors Association's Natural Resources Committee meeting on extreme weather events and how states can work with the Army Corps of Engineers. The corps has been working closely with New Jersey to rebuild sand dunes along the Shore after superstorm Sandy caused wide-spread devastation.
Christie will kick off his weekend trip with a Republican Governors Association dinner tonight, which is closed to the press.
He defended the group's fundraising this week after The Record detailed contributions from groups that otherwise would be restricted from donating to him directly.
Christie, who has credited the group with helping him win his first term, attended a Republican Governors Association fundraiser in Princeton last year.
Although companies with state contracts and regulated industries, including utility companies and casinos, are limited or prohibited from donating to Christie, there is nothing stopping them from donating to a group like the GOP association, which can in turn spend millions in support of Christie's reelection bid, so long as they don't coordinate with his campaign.
"It's all permitted under the laws," Christie said when asked about the contributions at an event in Little Ferry on Thursday. "You want to change the laws, change the laws. But you can't tell people, 'Comply with the campaign finance laws' and then when they do, say, 'Well we don't like that either.' Well, if you don't like it, then change the laws."

MONDAY, Aug. 6 (HealthDay News) -- Chronic exposure to an artificial butter flavoring ingredient, known as diacetyl, may worsen the harmful effects of a protein in the brain linked to Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study.
The findings should serve as a red flag for factory workers with significant exposure to the food-flavoring ingredient, researchers from the University of Minnesota said in the report published in a recent issue of the journal Chemical Research in Toxicology.
Diacetyl is used to give a buttery taste and aroma to common food items such as margarines, snack foods, candy, baked goods, pet foods and other products.
The investigators pointed out that previous studies have already linked diacetyl to respiratory and other health problems among workers at microwave popcorn and food-flavoring plants.
Although diacetyl forms naturally in fermented beverages, such as beer and wine, its chemical structure is similar to a substance that makes beta-amyloid proteins clump together in the brain. This clumping, the study authors noted, is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease.
In their study, the researchers found that diacetyl also increases the amount of beta-amyloid clumping in the brain. And it worsened the beta-amyloid protein's harmful effects on nerve cells grown in a lab when the cells were exposed to the same levels of diacetyl that factory workers might be exposed to in their jobs.
The study authors pointed out that other experiments revealed that diacetyl also crosses the "blood-brain barrier," which helps protect the brain from dangerous substances. Diacetyl also prevented a beneficial protein from protecting nerve cells.
"In light of the chronic exposure of industry workers to diacetyl, this study raises the troubling possibility of long-term neurological toxicity mediated by diacetyl," Robert Vince and colleagues concluded in a news release from the American Chemical Society.
The study was funded by the Center for Drug Design research endowment funds at the University of Minnesota.
While the study found an association between chronic diacetyl exposure and certain brain protein processes, it did not prove a cause-and-effect relationship.

The production is great—Yeezy, can you do no wrong? But one beat stands out. Probably because it samples NASA's moon launch. The Beyoncé-infused Lift Off, The Atlantic's Alexis Madrigal points out, uses some very literal inspiration: Advertisement About 3:18 seconds in, we get to hear the famous countdown sequence from Apollo 11, the first mission to land on the moon from 20 seconds on down.Rap blogger ego trip tagged the track as "Spielberg Rap," and it's easy to understand why. On a bombastic album, it's a particularly bombastic track—the hook is Beyoncé singing about going into god damn space. So where else would you turn, but to the real thing? But! Kanye's not the first to dip into the Apollo program to bring heat to a song. Gang Starr's 1998 Moment of Truth featured Above the Clouds, another aeronautically-inspired track that took fragments of JFK's famous "We choose to go to the moon" speech for its introduction.I don't think an entirely NASA-themed concept album would be a bad idea. And it's really only the next place for Kanye to head at this point, anyway. International Space Station status. [The Atlantic]Reply36 repliesLeave a reply

When will we walk away from Obamacare?
April 5th, 2012, 1:52 pm by Kyle InfanteANAHEIM, Chuck Farina: If you're a supporter of President Barack Obama, at what point do you walk away from him and the progressive programs that are destroying this country? When left with Dmitry Medvedev and an open microphone, we finally see what is going on here. It is the selling out of America. At what point do the White House staffers, the media, supporters and backers say, I am after all, first an American, and enough is enough. The policies of this president, both domestic and foreign, are all about destroying this country. Now I know this will cause a hysterical reaction amongst many people.
However, all you have to do is be rational and take a look at the actual policies. The health care program is train wreck that will ruin our economy, our inability to supply ourselves with fuel and energy, when we have a God-given abundance of it, is plain foolishness or evil. This economy is stumbling along and is yet categorized as very fragile. In other words, it would not take much to crash it all over again. We have insulted every one of our allies and we know what Obama thinks of Israel's President Benjamin Netanyahu. We have sold Eastern Europe down the river by canceling the missile defense system that was suppose to go in as part of an agreement. This defense system would have detected and possibly knocked out a missile coming out of Iran, aimed at Israel!
Ask yourself this: Why is most everything put off until after the second election? What will be wrought upon us if this happens? At what point is being back in Washington D.C. or on the White House staff, no longer more important than the salvation of the country? We have a chance to change the course we're on. It is my hope and prayer that the American people will make the right choice.

Interstitial lung disease
Interstitial lung disease is a group of lung disorders in which the lung tissues become inflamed and then damaged.
Alternative Names
Diffuse parenchymal lung disease; Alveolitis; Idiopathic pulmonary pneumonitis (IPP)
The lungs contain tiny air sacs (alveoli), which is where oxygen is absorbed. These air sacs expand with each breath.
The tissue around these air sacs is called the interstitium. In people with interstitial lung disease, this tissue becomes stiff or scarred, and the air sacs are not able to expand as much. As a result, not as much oxygen can get to the body.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) can occur without a known cause. This is called idiopathic ILD. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common disease of this type.
There are also dozens of known causes of ILD, including:
- Autoimmune diseases (in which the immune system attacks the body) such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, sarcoidosis, and scleroderma
- Lung inflammation due to breathing in a foreign substance such as certain types of dust, fungus, or mold (hypersensitivity pneumonitis)
- Medicines (such as nitrofurantoin, sulfonamides, bleomycin, amiodarone, methotrexate, gold, infliximab, and etanercept)
- Radiation treatment to the chest
- Working with or around asbestos, coal dust, cotton dust, and silica dust (called occupational lung disease)
Cigarette smoking may increase the risk of developing some forms of ILD and may cause the disease to be more severe.
Shortness of breath is a main symptom of interstitial lung disease. You may breathe faster or need to take deep breaths:
- At first, shortness of breath may not be severe and is only noticed with exercise, climbing stairs, and other activities.
- Over time, it can occur with less strenuous activity such as bathing or dressing, and as the disease worsens, even with eating or talking.
Most people with this condition also have a dry cough. A dry cough means you do not cough up any mucus or sputum.
Over time, weight loss, fatigue, and muscle and joint pain are also present.
People with more advanced ILD may have:
- Abnormal enlargement of the base of the fingernails (clubbing)
- Blue color of the lips, skin, or fingernails due to low blood oxygen levels (cyanosis)
- Symptoms of the other diseases such as arthritis, associated with ILD
Exams and Tests
The health care provider will perform a physical exam. Dry, crackling breath sounds may be heard when listening to the chest with a stethoscope.
The following tests may be done:
- Blood tests to check for autoimmune diseases
- Bronchoscopy with or without biopsy
- Chest x-ray
- CT scan of the chest
- Echocardiogram
- Open lung biopsy
- Measurement of the blood oxygen level at rest or when active
- Blood gases
- Pulmonary function tests
- Six minute walk test (checks how far you can walk in 6 minutes and how many times you need to stop to catch your breath)
People who are heavily exposed to known causes of lung disease in the workplace are usually routinely screened for lung disease. These jobs include coal mining, sand blasting, and working on a ship.
Treatment depends on the cause of the disease. Medicines that suppress the immune system and reduce swelling in the lungs are prescribed if an autoimmune disease is causing the problem. For some people who have IPF, pirfenidone and nintedanib are two medicines that may be used to slow the disease. If there is no specific treatment for the condition, the aim is to make you more comfortable and support lung function:
- If you smoke, ask your provider about how to stop smoking.
- People with low blood oxygen levels will receive oxygen therapy in their home. A respiratory therapist will help you set up the oxygen. Families need to learn proper oxygen storage and safety.
Lung rehabilitation can provide support, and help you learn:
- Different breathing methods
- How to set up your home to save energy
- How to eat enough calories and nutrients
- How to stay active and strong
Some people with advanced ILD may need a lung transplant.
Support Groups
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a support group. Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
Outlook (Prognosis)
The chance of recovering or ILD getting worse depends on the cause and how severe the disease was when it was first diagnosed.
Some people with ILD develop heart failure and high blood pressure in the blood vessels of their lungs.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has a poor outlook.
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your provider if:
- Your breathing is getting harder, faster, or more shallow than before
- You cannot get a deep breath, or need to lean forward when sitting
- You are having headaches more often
- You feel sleepy or confused
- You have a fever
- You are coughing up dark mucus
- Your fingertips or the skin around your fingernails is blue

Title: William Bouguereau Vol I: William Bouguereau His Life and Works Vol II: William Bouguereau Catalogue Raisonné of his Painted Works Release Date: September 15, 2010 Publisher: Art Renewal Center and Antique Collector's Club Author: Damien Bartoli with Fred Ross Introduction and Conclusion: Fred Ross Number of Pages: 903
The two-volume boxed set illustrates the complete oeuvre of paintings of this 19th Century master, with information on all of William Bouguereau's 828 known paintings, as well as the entire 600 page biography written by Damien Bartoli, with Fred Ross Chairman of the Art Renewal Center® and President of the Bouguereau Committee.
The huge scope of Bouguereau's work was immensely famous and popular in his own time and then was suppressed for nearly a century, resurfacing in 1980 when the Metropolitan Museum in New York hung 2 of his works. His popularity has gained momentum steadily ever since, and today he is widely recognized as the most popular and beloved of the Academic artists who preceded Impressionism. Diverse, his works span monumental, religious and mythical compositions. But most beloved of all are his deeply touching scenes exploring the depths of human emotions from early childhood through young adult; Poetic renderings of the psychology of youth married to impeccable technical perfection found in an unparalleled number of original and powerful compositions in one masterpiece after another.
In 2010, the addition of 5 major works at the Musée d'Orsay and the high-selling price of his Pietá at Christie's Old Masters and 19th Century auction in June for 2.77 million, which topped the sale, has brought Bouguereau into the public eye; indeed, the arrival of this thoroughly researched and extensively illustrated publication is well-timed, and text books will have to be rewritten as this work has permanently changed how art history of the 19th Century Art should be taught.

The third time wasn't the charm for the South Brunswick High School boys' basketball team. It was just more of the same.
West Bladen defeated the visiting Cougars 57-43 last Thursday in the second round of the Class 2A state playoffs. It was the Knights' third win of the season against South Brunswick.
West Bladen led 28-18 at halftime. The Cougars cut the deficit to 36-30 at the end of the third quarter, but the Knights outscored them 21-13 in the final period.

A windy day, but sunny. This is where it ended. You would have thought time was standing still, but the river kept running and the trees rustled, witnesses. He cupped his hands over his mouth and lit a cigarette, dragging in tobacco and smoke in one long breath. The wind tousled his hair, though he paid it no mind.
October had made the water cold and quick through heavy rains and frosty nights. Staring out over the murky brown water, he remembered his childhood in the river's valley. Thirty feet above the rushing water, he thought again of the times they'd swam there as boys. Memories blurred; he was seven with friends and then fourteen with his first girl, feeling breasts for the first time from under a current. A smile crept over his face, as if he were sharing one last joke with a dying friend. And in a way, he was.
He stood there solid, swaying slightly with the red buckeyes. When the wind picked up, he watched hundreds of leaves float down to the water. The dirt and earth in that water had been carried--carried for so many miles that it was too far from home to ever get back. Our man felt that way too, standing there in silence. Too far from home, too far for hope. He was being carried, much the same.
Isn't it sad how stories end? Especially the ones we want to go on forever? He'd been baptised in this river, at the beginning of his story. It was a long time ago that he'd fallen back in the water, surrendering himself and giving his life to his creator. The water had cleansed him then as it would again, today.
The years have a way of changing a man, just like a river changes its bed. Years of nameless women and bad debts and too much liquor. Years of lies, pain, misery that eroded his edges, took pieces of him downstream. It was the weight of these years that was drowning him, dragging him along and down and under and away like the random leaves floating past him now.
Choking back the memories he had of death, of his mother dying of cancer in an anonymous hospital bed, his best friend being blown to bits in war, his first wife burning in the twisted metal that had been the family car... he stamped out the cigarette with a heavy boot. A gust of wind pulled itself together and past him, sending leaves and winged seeds like helicopters down to the current. He found his resolve and dove off the rocky edge into the river to join them.

Boston's Biggest Beer Lists
Boston knows its beer. We can't offer traditional happy hours (as we mentioned while sharing our picks for the 10 best food-driven deals), but when it comes to good brews, we know our stuff. For this list, we gathered up some of the best bets for BIG and thoughtful beer lists. There are plenty of other fantastic beer bars with carefully curated craft selections (Deep Ellum, anyone?), but we focused on sheer size: each of these bars features over 100 brews. Do the math; official or not, there are a whole lot of happy hours ahead right here.
Approximate number of beers: 492
It's the stuff of local legend. This Allston restaurant may be a popular hangout for Allston college kids, thanks to its midpriced menu of tasty Tex-Mex. But the gargantuan beer list gives good reason to come back long after your undergrad days are over. We're talking 112 taps plus 380 bottles and cans of micro and exotic brews. (130 Brighton Ave., Allston; 617-254-1331)
Approximate number of beers: 240
Don't be fooled by the relatively limited number of tap lines (17). This subterranean (and cash-only!) Kenmore Square hangout has a much, much larger selection on hand when you consider its can and bottle selection. While you're there, chow down on a foot-long hot dog creation, like the "Boston Strangler," topped with mac 'n' cheese. (476 Commonwealth Ave.; 617-266-6662)
Approximate number of beers: 162
Head to the original Davis Square location for the largest selection of brews, comprised of 36 drafts, 125 bottles and a cask. But the newer South End spot has a pretty generous selection too: 96 varieties, with 40 of them on tap. What would you expect of a restaurant with chandeliers made out of old tap handles? (400 Highland Ave., Somerville; 617-764-1655)
Approximate number of beers: 144
You know how it's sort of a turn-off when you get to a chain restaurant and find a menu the length of Ulysses? Well, it's sort of a turn-on when you're taking lengthy beer lists. Yard House might be a national chain, but we'll be damned if we're not going to saunter up to the 100+ taps that dominate the massive wraparound bar at this Fenway-side pub. (126 Brookline Ave.; 617-236-4083)
Approximate number of beers: 130
You thought your competitive drinking days were over? Think again. Estelle's has 30 beers on tap and over 100 in cans; consume all of them within 180 days, and you earn entry into the "Mug Club." (The computer keeps track.) The prize: an engraved 25-oz. mug awaiting your arrival, and going forward you'll pay only pint prices to fill it. Also a prize: being awesome. (782 Tremont St.; 857-250-2999)
Approximate number of beers: 125
Both the Back Bay and South End locations of Parish Cafe have large beer lists, and they also feature a "Mug Club" program. You have six months to chug them all and earn your engraved mug. When you're not drinking, you can partake in a menu of sandwiches created by various chefs from all around town, like the "Eggplant Milanesa" from Coppa and Toro's Jamie Bissonnette, or the "Egg Sandwich Lyonaisse" from Craigie on Main's Tony Maws. (361 Boylston St., 617-247-4777; 493 Massachusetts Ave., 617-391-0501)
Approximate number of beers: 120
This Cambridge restaurant has two floors and two bars, but it's the massive, 100+ tap fixture downstairs where you'll find most of Kendall Square's after-work crowds talking shop while sipping craft brews and noshing on Belgian-American plates. (4 Cambridge Center, Cambridge; 617-714-4658)
Approximate number of beers: 100
The big beer list is comprised of 65 bottles and cans, plus 35 taps. But don't forget the "tips" too. Chef Brian Poe offers an eclectic mix of meat tips at this Beacon Hill bar and eatery, from steak, swordfish and lamb to rotating game like elk and antelope. (138 Cambridge St.; 857-350-3344)

Royals | Dale Sveum taking over as hitting coach |
Thu, 29 May 2014 12:29:34 -0700
Kansas City Royals infield coach Dale Sveum will take over as the team's new hitting coach Thursday, May 29. Also, Pedro Grifol will become the catching instructor and Mike Jirschele will be the new third base coach.
Fantasy Tip: The Royals are looking for a way to kickstart their offense, which is one of the worst in all of baseball.

Cubs | David DeJesus to DL |
Sun, 16 Jun 2013 22:57:54 -0700
Updating previous items, Chicago Cubs OF David DeJesus (shoulder) will get an MRI on his sprained right shoulder on Monday, June 17, and he figures to miss at least three weeks under a best-case scenario. The Cubs officially put DeJesus on the 15-day disabled list Saturday, June 15. Manager Dale Sveum said DeJesus will have to go on a minor league rehab stint after he recovers.
Fantasy Tip: Well, there goes any hope the Cubs had to get prospects for DeJesus at the trade deadline. DeJesus had a .260 average with six home runs at the time of his injury, a nice number on an otherwise dismal Cubs squad. If he recovers in time the Cubs may still try to trade him, but he is likely to remain a Cub for the remainder of the year thanks to this.

Angels | Dale Sveum says Albert Pujols isn't the same |
Wed, 05 Jun 2013 16:04:21 -0700
Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum said that it has become easier to pitch to Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 1B Albert Pujols these days. "He's come down to being more human, that's for sure," Sveum said. "At one point in his career, you pitch around him, you walk him, you do all kinds of things. But you didn't want him to beat you. Now he's a little more able to be pitched to." Pujols is hitting only .244 with nine home runs and 35 RBIs this season.
Fantasy Tip: Age and nagging foot and knee problems have slowed Pujols down this year. The plantar fasciitis in his foot will likely bother him for the rest of the year, which has to be a concern to his fantasy owners. Pujols can still be productive, but the days of 30-plus home runs are likely in the past for him.

Thu, 02 May 2013 00:20:34 -0700
Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum said he has no intention of moving OF Alfonso Soriano down in the order because of his lack of production in April. Soriano went into the final game of the month with one home run and two RBIs, hitting .095 with runners in scoring position. Sveum has used Soriano in the clean-up spot in all 25 of Soriano's starts.

Cubs | Sticking with closer-by-committee |
Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:36:50 -0700
Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum said the team will likely stick with a closer-by-committee approach when RP Kyuji Fujikawa (forearm) returns from the disabled list. Fujikawa could have a rehab outing with Triple-A Iowa Sunday, May 5. RP Kevin Gregg picked up his fourth save of the year Monday, April 29. "I got (a closer)," Sveum said. "I just don't know who it's going to be every night."
Fantasy Tip: This is probably a situation to avoid for fantasy baseball if you can help it. Right now, Gregg, Carlos Marmol and Fujikawa shoulad all be owned in deep mixed formats if you're speculating for saves. Marmol could easily win back the job if he gains enough trust from Sveum, but there's no telling how long that might take.

Mon, 29 Apr 2013 17:08:11 -0700
Chicago Cubs manager Dale Sveum does not inform his relief pitchers who his designated closer will be on a daily bases, and instead goes with the best matchup. "It's been working," Sveum said Monday. "I'm not going to say it's a fix-all and that you don't want to name a closer. You definitely don't want to rock the boat when things are going good in the back of the bullpen when everybody is healthy and ready to go that night. It could be one of four guys. It depends on the matchups."

Cubs | Dale Sveum has support from brass |
Wed, 24 Apr 2013 12:07:16 -0700
Chicago Cubs general manager Jed Hoyer expressed his support for manager Dale Sveum despite the team losing 12 of their last 15 games. "We're not the most talented team in the league right now; we're trying to build to get there," Hoyer said. "But as we get there, we can't continue to make the kind of mistakes we're making. That's on us. Dale has our complete support. That (his job security) shouldn't be what he's thinking about in the least."

Expect massive support in India, says Di Resta
Devadyuti Das | TNN | Oct 7, 2011, 05.28 AM ISTNEW DELHI: Paul Di Resta has been a champion at every step of his career so far. Be it karting, Formula Three or DTM series - Di Resta has won it all.
In fact, former world champion Lewis Hamilton's father Anthony has already billed him as a champ in the making. The accolades are not without reason since Di Resta beat the likes of Sebastian Vettel, Kamui Kobayashi, Kazuki Nakajima, Sebastien Buemi and Roman Grosjean. But failure to procure enough sponsorship stunted his progress in Formula One.
While the rest of those colleagues made rapid strides in F1, Di Resta bided his time with opportunity finally knocking on his door with the call coming from Vijay Mallya-owned Force India.
The Brit hasn't disappointed in his rookie season so far, notching up a point in his first race at the Albert Park in Melbourne in the Australian Grand Prix.
Di Resta has gone from strength-to-strength with his best result coming in the Singapore Grand Prix with a sixth place finish - the highest for Force India so far. "I think we've shown in the last four of five races that we can maintain this level of competitiveness. We can be fighting to qualify inside the top ten and race for points Of course, some tracks will suit us more than others, but I don't think there are any tracks coming up that worry us because we've shown the car can perform at circuits with varying downforce levels. We can be hopeful that it will carry on at Suzuka," Di Resta told TOI before heading off to Suzuka for the Japanese Grand Prix this weekend.
The next three weeks will be crucial for the team with Japan, South Korea and the inaugural Airtel Indian Grand Prix all in a span of three weeks.
"For me personally all those circuits will be new, so it's vital that I come to terms with them quickly. Of course, India will be new for everybody and until we get there and walk the track it's difficult to know what to expect. "In terms of ambitions for those races, it's no secret that we will be aiming to get both cars among points. That won't be easy because all the teams are so closely matched in the middle of the pack, but it's what we need to achieve if we want to keep closing the gap with Renault who are currently fifth in the championship ," the 25-year-old said.
Motor racing runs in the veins of Di Resta, whose cousin Dario Franchitti is a two-time IndyCar champion.
The pressure though will be immense on the youngster at the Airtel Indian GP with the home crowd cheering the team along.
"I think everyone in the team is excited about the race, especially as it's our home race as a team. Dr. Mallya has already done so much to help the popularity of motor sport in India and having a race there will take it to the next level. I think based on our recent performances we go there believing we can score points. There should be massive support for the team and it would be the icing on the cake if we can give everybody a special result to celebrate," he said.
On his own performance over the season so far, Di Resta said, "It's my first year of F1 and I'm enjoying every minute of it. I'm part of a great team that has made great progress since the first race of the year and that's been incredibly satisfying. There have been some great highs and some lows too, but you learn from those moments."
The challenge up next is the Suzuka circuit this Sunday. "In Singapore the upgrade package worked as we expected and contributed to the end result. Just walking on the Suzuka track makes you respect the place because it's narrow, fast and has some really unusual corners. It also a technical lap: you can take different lines through some of the corners so there's a lot for me to learn during Friday practice. I am really looking forward to a new experience here," he said.
