Critics: Congressional spending requests less open
With earmarks gone, congressional letters are one way for lawmakers to indicate support for a project.
WASHINGTON -- In the more than two years since earmarks were banned to make congressional spending more transparent, lawmakers have fallen back on an age-old practice of writing letters to request money from agencies for projects back home.
And that, critics charge, has made the process less transparent — though the letters seem to be having minimal influence with agencies.
"We're in the dark again," said Bill Allison, editorial director of the Sunlight Foundation, a nonprofit watchdog group.
According to documents obtained by The (Louisville, Ky.) Courier-Journal under the Freedom of Information Act, the Department of Transportation alone received 1,078 congressional letters of support for funding for various projects in 2011, the first year without earmarks.
The projects included street repairs and improvements, bridge replacements, new transit centers, upgrades to rail lines and new facilities at ports and airports.
The only way the public could find the requests — which critics call "letter marks" — would be by filing an FOIA request to the agency, a long and sometimes frustrating process, said Lisa Gilbert, director of Congress Watch, another watchdog group.
Allison agreed, noting that anyone wanting to extract details of congressional letters has to navigate through myriad federal agencies because Congress is exempt from FOIA requests.
And there are no guarantees all the letters will be disclosed. Allison said Sunlight tried to pry such information from a host of federal departments and agencies but found the records system was haphazard.
"There's no way to find every request from every single agency," he said.
The correspondence records also do not always reflect the outcome of a congressional request.
Longtime practice
Earmarking was a decades-old practice in which lawmakers inserted binding language into spending bills that directed federal money to specific state and local projects. That could be highway work, medical equipment for a hospital, work for a federal contractor, research for a university or a new airport runway.
Critics targeted earmarks for elimination because of many well-publicized abuses, including Alaskan lawmakers' efforts in 2005 to funnel $223 million to build a bridge connecting Ketchikan to a thinly populated island, a project dubbed "the bridge to nowhere."
Also in 2005, then-Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham, R-Calif., was convicted of taking bribes in exchange for sponsoring earmarks for defense contractors.
Congressional reforms in 2007 and 2009 required lawmakers to put their names on each request and post them on their office websites. Spending bills also were required to include the authorship of every earmark Congress passed.
In 2010, Republicans took over the House and, encouraged by the new wave of younger members who had campaigned on congressional reform, banned earmarks starting in January 2011. The Senate followed.
At that point, lawmakers' best opportunity to make their wishes known on projects was to write letters to the agencies allocating funds.
The federal government annually approves about $537 billion in grants, and even before the earmark ban, lawmakers regularly corresponded with federal agencies about allocating those funds.
Robert Steurer, spokesman for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the senator believes congressional letters are an appropriate way to convey a community's needs.
"Letters of support merely ensure that a Kentucky applicant is not lost at the bottom of the pile and receives appropriate consideration," Steurer said in an email.
But John Hart, spokesman for Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., who has repeatedly lampooned government waste, said Congress should stop writing letters to agencies supporting spending and take a closer look at the grants process.
"Federal grants ... represent an enormous (potential) reservoir of savings," Hart said in an email.
Tracking difficult
Steve Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan, nonprofit budget watchdog organization, agreed with Allison that there is no dependable way of tracking congressional letters requesting spending for specific projects.
Ellis said his group has been waiting a year to get congressional letters sought under a Freedom of Information request to the Army Corps of Engineers.
That agency created 26 funds last year to pay for construction and other work, then announced which projects it was going to finance. The accounts added up to almost the same amount as the last year of congressional earmarks for the corps, budget watchdogs noted.
"If (a letter) is about federal funding and about what would typically be considered an earmark, it should be posted on a lawmaker's website and on the agency's website," Ellis said.
In fact, then-President George W. Bush issued an executive order in January 2008 requiring that "all written communications" requesting funds "on any earmark" be published on the Internet by the receiving agency within 30 days of the request.
But, while agencies have posted their communications with Congress on rule-making and policy matters, the funding requests have remained out of sight.
White House officials did not directly respond to a question about why the correspondence is not being posted, instead issuing a statement touting its "great transparency on government spending generally."
The administration isn't doing enough, critics say.
"In order to get agencies to comply with the order, it will take a clear signal from the Obama administration that they think making the letters available is a priority, and that they will be following up to make sure agencies are complying," said Amy Bennett, assistant director of OpenTheGovernment.org, a nonpartisan coalition of organizations that advocate openness and accountability in government.
Advocates for open government say that congressional letters to federal agencies simply need to be made public.
Even with easy access, however, the letters are a small part of how Congress tries to flex its muscles with agencies, said Gilbert, of Congress Watch.
Other, even less-trackable forms of communication between lawmakers and federal agencies include the telephone, emails and in-person conversations, she said.
"If somebody calls an agency, there is no record of that call," Allison said.
Earmarks preferred
Transparency aside, letter marks may be proving less effective than earmarks in securing federal dollars — if area lawmakers' correspondence with Transportation Department records are any indication.
Letters from Kentucky and Southern Indiana lawmakers and Transportation Department responses during 2011 and the first three quarters of 2012 revealed that all but one of 28 spending requests were unsuccessful.
Such a poor overall showing for past "letter marks" has reinforced Democratic Rep. John Yarmuth's belief that lifting the earmark ban, with proper disclosure, would be a better way to help his Kentucky district.
"As long as everything is transparent, your name is on every one of them and they are vetted properly by the (relevant) committee, I don't see any problem with it," he said. "And it doesn't cost the taxpayers any more money."
In an interview last month on C-SPAN, Rep. Hal Rogers, R-Ky., indicated that he also wouldn't mind restoring earmarks. Rogers, the chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, said lawmakers talk to him about earmarks almost every day.
"I would be in favor of being allowed ... to present a request from a city or a county or a state or a political subdivision," he said.
But McConnell, who over the years used earmarks to funnel hundreds of millions of dollars to Kentucky for education, research and other projects, is standing by the ban.
"We voted to ban earmarks in our conference and that rule stands," Steurer said.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) ? Mike Conley scored 19 points, Zach Randolph had his 31st double-double and Memphis won its fourth straight game Tuesday night, 105-91 at Detroit.
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) ? Mike Conley scored 19 points, Zach Randolph had his 31st double-double and Memphis won its fourth straight game Tuesday night, 105-91 at Detroit.
Randolph had 15 points and 10 rebounds and the Grizzlies rode a strong second half to win in both teams' first game since the All Star break.
Brandon Knight and Jonas Jerebko each scored 13 points and Jose Calderon added 10 points and seven assists for the Pistons, who have lost two of their last three at home.
The Grizzlies trailed by as many as 11 points in the first half, but ended it on a 23-3 run to lead 53-42 at intermission. The Pistons managed just one basket in the final eight minutes of the half and had twice as many turnovers as field goals (8-4) in the second quarter.
Quincy Pondexter, who was whistled for a technical foul midway through the period, had all eight first-half points during the decisive run. He and Tony Allen each finished with 10 points.
Detroit's energy seemed to disappear in the second half. The lead passed the 20-point plateau after a 13-0 Memphis run midway through the third quarter and stayed there until the final minutes.
Ed Davis came off the bench to score 14 points for the Grizzlies, who broke a two-game skid away from home.
NOTES: Grizzlies F Tayshaun Prince drew a loud ovation from the small crowd before his first game at the Palace of Auburn Hills since the trade that sent him to Memphis. He was the final member of the Pistons' 2004 NBA championship team to leave Detroit. ... Official David Guthrie called technical fouls on Memphis coach Lionel Hollins and Pondexter, as well as Detroit G Will Bynum, during a 2-minute stretch of the second quarter. . The teams observed a moment of silence for Los Angeles Lakers owner Jerry Buss, who died Monday.

Subscribe To Rose McGowan Set To Don The Sheriff's Hat In Napa Updates
I've already subscribed
Rose McGowan is one of the only actresses whose career constantly remains unfettered by poor showings at the box office. Conan the Barbarian was met with mild box office receipts and even milder reviews, yet the actress has four films in various stages of production and shows no sign of slowing down.
The Charmed star has accepted the lead in Napa, according to Variety, which will put her in the role of Sheriff of her home town after three tours in Afghanistan. Based on a Hans Ostrom novel Three to Get Ready, originally published in 1990, the book is described as a mystery so expect McGowan to quickly get caught up in a big case at her new job.
Michael Kerr will be making his first attempt behind the camera for Napa, which will be produced under his own company alongside Greek producer Nellie Nugiel.
What we don't know right off the bat is whether or not the story is going to take place in present day, or if it will take place closer to the time the book was published. This may not play a major role in the film, but the Afghanistan of 1990 and the Afghanistan of 2011 are two very different places and three tours in 2011 Afghanistan could make for some interesting flashback sequences. More on Napa as it comes to us.

The Onion News Network posted this over a year ago so it ain't exactly brand new, but with both Sony and Microsoft coming out with new hardware in the Move and Kinect (the artist formerly known as Natal) it seemed timely. But don't get me wrong I'm a Sony fan and will most likely get the Move when it comes out. Video seems choppy in the window so maximize it to full screen to watch.

Dead Space 2 Interview
I just saw this on the PS3 blog - an interview with the creative director for Dead Space 2, Wright Bagwell, to talk about the game which is slated for release on January 25.
Like I've mentioned before I loved the first one so I'm definitely going to get #2. I also read that Dead Space: Extraction will be packaged along with Dead Space 2 in the limited edition of the game and it will be compatible with the Playstation Move and have full trophy support. That's cool but I'm playing Extraction right now on the Wii so this almost makes me want to put it on the shelf and wait for the PS3 version. Wii!!!!!!!!!!!!! (screamed into the sky Khan-style).

Joystix - Pac-Man Fever Friday
Well this last Friday was the last Friday of the month and that means one thing - a trip to Joystix to play some arcade games!
Joystix has been selling classic arcade games and pinball games in the Houston area since 1987 and I remember hearing about them a long time ago, but the big news for me came a couple of years ago or so when I heard about their Pac-Man Fever Fridays - every first and last Friday of the month you pay a $15 entrance fee and every game in their large showroom is on free play from 9:00 PM - 2:00 AM. I normally focus mostly on the video games, but this place has a ton of pinballs and other miscellaneous games too like pop-a-shot, air hockey, foosball, etc.
And even better - the place shares its space with it's own full-service bar - the 1820 Bar. You can even drink a beer while you are playing the games. This sounded awesome when I first heard about it but in practice it is a little difficult finding a place to put your beer when it's your turn.
Talking in-depth about all the games they have would take way too long so as just a taste of the huge list of games they have I'll just try and list the ones I played this last Friday: Robotron, Centipede, Gorf, Hyper Sports, Carnevil, America's Army, Millipede, Golden Axe, Street Fighter Three, Asteroids, Popeye, Tempest, Gauntlet Legends, Pepper II, Turkey Shoot, Paperboy, Donkey Kong II, H2 Overdrive, Jr. Pac-Man, Rush Alcatraz, Ms. Pac-Man (turbo), Cruisin USA, 720, Arch Rivals, Bubbles, Double Dragon II, Dig Dug, Mario Bros., Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Punch-Out!, Smash T.V, Space Duel, Star Wars, Timber, WWF Superstars, Iron Man (pin), Spiderman (pin), Medieval Madness (pin), Roller Coaster (pin), Ultrapin (video pin emulator), and Tales from the Crypt (pin). Geez even that short list was pretty long! They also got the new Terminator Salvation video game a while back that I've been meaning to try but I keep seeing old classics that I've never hit and by the time I roll back to it someone is on it.
So anyway, if you are in the Houston area on the first or last Friday of the month and like classic arcade games this joint is a MUST SEE. It is located right across the street from Minute Maid Park. Check out their website for more details: http://www.joystixamusements.com/

Retro Uprising
I just came across this website called Retro Uprising which allows you to play all kinds of old arcade and console games through your browser. To play some of them (mostly arcade games) you have to install ArcadeOX which is an application that allows windows applications to be run through your browser - and that sounds like a security risk to me so I didn't risk installing it. And some games were too laggy to play - but some worked well.
I did notice they had a bunch of old Infocom text games on there that you could play if you like and those worked fine. So check it out and run the java games just beware about installing anything.

Project Natal
So you say you like playing the Wii but it just doesn't make you feel quite stupid enough? Well check out how super-cool this uber-white family of 4 looks playing some games with the Natal on XBOX 360. The chick's moves are eerily reminiscent of Elaine's dance moves on Seinfeld and the dude's constant chatter and directions to the kid are less than soothing as well. And come on - like that kid is doing anything but jumping around like an idiot. You can do that for free people just use your imagination!
But this is going to be a totally different experience from the Wii and not targeted at kids like most Wii games - right? Right?!

1943: The Battle of Midway
On this day - June 6 - in 1942 the United States Navy defeated the Imperial Japanese Navy in the most important naval battle of the Pacific Campaign of World War II - the Battle of Midway. To me that says - it's time to bring up the arcade shooter 1943: The Battle of Midway on the MAME cab and finally play it through to the end! And of course put it up here for you guys.
This vertical scrolling shooter was released by Capcom in June of 1987 as a sequel to their popular classic 1942 - I guess that's why they called in 1943 even though the historic battle took place in 1942. You are piloting a P-38 off the coast of the Midway Atoll fighting your way through 16 levels of Japanese fighters (complete with boss battles at the end of each level) to overtake and destroy the Japanese battleship Yamato. You have your joystick for movement, one button for firing your main weapon, and one button for special attacks or the trademark 1942 loop-de-loops.
1943 kept all the great gameplay of its predecessor and kicked it up a notch on several fronts - the graphics and sounds both got a little boost of course, but the best upgrades are in gameplay features. In 1942 if you collided with a plane or bullet even once that was it, one of your 3 planes was dead. But in 1943 you get a life bar and each collision or bullet hit takes some of your health off until it depletes to zero and you explode - and there are various opportunities to replenish some of your health by shooting down an entire fleet of red planes and then grabbing the POW powerups that appear. This is a nice improvement in my opinion. And if you are OK on health you can shoot the POW powerup and make it a super-weapon powerup like triple-shot, rapid-fire missiles, scatter-shot, etc. that you can pick up and use as your main weapon until it wears off and reverts back to your normal machine guns. Of course it is tough to mentally scroll through all these strategic options and make the appropriate shots while 2 dozen pissed off Japanese fighters are buzzing around you trying to take your ass out. If you're like me it is more common to just shoot all the red and then just grab whatever happens to pop up as soon as you can.
Another feature that I like is that like a lot of story/level arcade games it allows you to continue by pumping in more quarters but the score resets to 0 with every continue (because artificially inflated high scores from continues are bullshit). And there is absolutely no way you are going to complete this game without pumping in about $20 or so worth of quarters. The action quickly gets more and more hectic and the last few of the 16 levels are just insanely difficult.
AND unlike 1942, 1943 allows you to play 2-player simultaneous so it can be fun for 2-player action too - it's co-op but you each have your own scores so it can still be competitive too. Since this game is played from the U.S. side of the battle and you win if you destroy the Japanese fleet I've wondered how well that was received in Japan (where it was created!). I guess the Japanese kids were OK with that because it was apparently pretty popular there.
So bottom line - an excellent upgrade to a classic game and one you can pick up and play anytime - I just wish it wasn't QUITE so difficult. I give it a 8.7. Click HERE to download it into your MAME ROMs folder and give it a try. If you like it you might want to check out some of Capcom's later 1942 sequels - of which there were like 5! But on the off chance that you don't actually stick with it long enough to finish it (like I finally did today) here is what you would see at the end right before the credits roll:
"In 1943, the U.S. Navy sank four Japanese striking forces in the Battle of Midway and brought the victory in the Pacific War to the United States. It was made possible by two eminent pilots who detected the Japanese fleet during a routing mission." - note how Capcom referenced 1943 instead of 1942 and referred to it as a 'routing' mission instead of a routine mission.

Safety Features Saved My Life!
By TINA72170 on Wednesday, November 08, 2017I was in an accident, where my front end was damaged, and my car was totaled. Even though the damage was extensive, I only had a minor airbag burn on my arm. When looking at the damage to the car, the passenger compartment was completely protected, even though the hood was buckled all the way up to my windshield. From the inside of the car, you would never know the car was damaged other than the air bag deployment. The collision never hurt me at all, because the airbag deployed in plenty of time in just the right places to completely absorb the impact. Although I was upset and stunned, I was completely unharmed. I would recommend this car to anyone and everyone. Great gas mileage...looked great and absolutely safe.

Sharper than your average kitchen knife
By Lodi Outlets loving on Wednesday, June 07, 2017There may be some taking what I say with a grain of salt when it comes to power; drove an Elantra for 5 years, however, this car has POWER. It has one of the most dependable engines (3.5 Liter V-6) and a sleek look to its exterior. Handles well but is a boat so careful when parallel parking my friends. Also, the steering takes a week or two to get fully used to, but isnt a make or break aspect. The interior is second to none. Back seats have plenty of room despite being a coupe. Love this car for road trips.

Good value for the price
By Saha on Tuesday, August 20, 2019I think Honda makes a great car. I compared this car with Toyota Camry and Mazda6. I felt it offers great value for the price. The ride is comfortable. Very reliable car and this is most important attribute for me. Gas mileage is good. I owned Camry for long time and loved it. So I think this is among the best cars for the money in its class. This is a car that can easily last 200,000 miles or more with proper maintenance.

Roomy, Sporty, Smooth and Fast
By Big Guy on Thursday, June 22, 2017We were looking for a vehicle for my wife to use around town but one that I could drive if need be; we tested 5 other models and picked the Equinox LTZ. Im 6 feet 5 inches tall and 275 pounds and easily fit in this vehicle. Even with the driver seat all the way back there is still plenty of leg room for the back passenger. The 6 cylinder is very responsive, smooth and quiet; you cannot feel the transmission shifting from gear to gear. The LTZ looks more expensive than what we paid for it and considering all of the high-tech gadgetry in the vehicle we feel the Equinox was a great buy. Love the OnStar feature, once you use it you have to have it. My wife really likes all of the safety features (back up camera, lane change warning, vehicle approaching, etc.)...the leather in this vehicle is great looking and I particularly like the red baseball stitching around the seats. Just something to set it apart. Overall a great vehicle. Will purchase again.

Leon Russell
"Leon's work as a musician, songwriter, and producer, touched millions of rock and roll fans.
Revered by his peers, Leon was an iconoclast who easily crossed the genres of rock, blues, gospel and country. His massive range impacted the work of the Beach Boys, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles, Frank Sinatra, Willie Nelson, Elton John—to name a few. He was a soulful artist who was 'always singing a song for you.'" - Greg Harris, president and CEO, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame
Leon Russell has been called a rock and roll Renaissance man, and indeed there is little that this Oklahoma-bred singer-pianist hasn't done.
His quixotic half-century in music stretches from his teen years in Oklahoma in the late Fifties to his best-selling collaboration with Elton John from 2010, The Union. Between his solo work, contributions to high-profile albums by other artists and screen exposure in the Bangla Desh (1972) and Mad Dogs & Englishmen (1971) documentaries, Russell became a veritable superstar in the Seventies.
For someone as celebrated as a solo artist and live performer as Russell, it might be surprising to learn that he spent his first decade working behind the scenes. As an in-demand session musician in Los Angeles during the Sixties, Russell played on countless records, including many of Phil Spector's productions and hits by the Byrds, Paul Revere & the Raiders and Gary Lewis & the Playboys. He also played piano in the house band for Shindig! ABC-TV's weekly rock and roll show.
During his time as a sessionman and one of the "Shindogs," he learned to play guitar from the legendary James Burton. He also befriended another Shindog, Delaney Bramlett, and would go on to arrange and play piano on Accept No Substitute—The Original Delaney & Bonnie & Friends (1969). Russell became a bandleader in the early Seventies, using musicians from Delaney & Bonnie's ensemble in organizing Joe Cocker's memorable "Mad Dogs & Englishmen" touring revue in 1970 and also anchoring the house band for George Harrison's Bangladesh benefit in 1971.
Mad Dogs & Englishmen was a new kind of rock tour, designed as a kind of moving commune of musicians, friends and family members "so that everyone could bring their own diversions with them, so they wouldn't really be away from their normal lives," Russell commented in 1970. Nearly forty members of the entourage toured the U.S. for two months. The resulting album, recorded at New York's Fillmore East, was a smashing success, reaching Number Two—the highest-charting album of Joe Cocker's career and a launching pad for Russell's own emergence as a solo artist.
Beyond these highly visible roles, he has been a notable music-business entrepreneur, having founded his own studio (Skyhill) and several labels (Shelter, Paradise and Leon Russell Records). During the Seventies, Russell's Shelter imprint released his own output, launched the careers of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, J.J. Cale, Phoebe Snow and Dwight Twilley. It was on Shelter that venerable Texas bluesman Freddie King revitalized his career.
Russell has been a prolific and celebrated songwriter. He composed "A Song for You," one of the greatest love songs of the modern era. The list of artists who have covered "A Song for You" includes Ray Charles, Dusty Springfield, Whitney Houston, Willie Nelson, Christina Aguilera and Michael Bublé. Several other songs of Russell's have also been successful for others, including "This Masquerade" (which George Benson took into the Top Ten) and "Superstar" (co-written with Bonnie Bramlett), a Number Two hit for the Carpenters.
Most of all, Leon Russell has enjoyed a remarkable and lengthy career as a performing and recording artist. His all-encompassing style ranges from raucous, gospel-inflected rock to heartfelt romantic ballads. He has also cut albums of country and bluegrass music, delved into the Great American Songbook, and recorded an album of Christmas hymns. He is recognized as one of the best interpreters of Bob Dylan and even recorded with Dylan ("Watching the River Flow") in the mid-Seventies.
As a central figure on the rock scene during the Seventies, Russell shared studios and stages with members of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and others. No fewer than three Stones and two Beatles guested on his self-titled debut album—as did Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood and Joe Cocker. With his long, flowing beard and top hat, Russell cut a memorable figure on concert stages during the Seventies, when he was the self-styled "Master of Time and Space." His churchy, rolling piano figures and sly, drawling vocals pegged him as a unique stylist, and his evangelical outpouring of energy from the stage made his concerts, as Russell put it, "an artificially induced religious experience." Among the most captivating performances of the Seventies was Russell's frenetic, high-energy medley of the Coasters' "Young Blood" and the Rolling Stones' "Jumping Jack Flash" in the Bangla Desh concert documentary.
Russell's recording career actually began back in 1962, when he and David Gates (later of Bread) cut a single as Dave and Lee. Russell's first solo single ("Everybody's Talking 'Bout the Young") came in 1965. In the late Sixties he recorded with fellow Oklahoman guitarist Marc Benno; they called themselves the Asylum Choir and made two albums. Russell exploded into public view in 1970 with the release of Joe Cocker's live double-album Mad Dogs & Englishmen (documenting a tour on which Russell served as pianist and musical director) and Russell's self-titled debut, which included the classics "A Song for You," "Delta Lady" and "Hummingbird." Mad Dogs & Englishman was a remarkable juggernaut, with Russell at the helm of a twenty-member musical troupe that he personally assembled on Cocker's behalf.
Leon Russell & the Shelter People, which appeared a year later, would become his first gold album. Its notable songs included "Stranger in a Strange Land" and Russell's memorable cover of George Harrison's "Beware of Darkness." The introspective Carney, released in 1972, held the Number Two position on Billboard's album chart for a month and yielded his highest-charting single, "Tight Rope" (Number Eleven). The sprawling, three-disc Leon Live documented the full Leon Russell concert experience at its chaotic, charisma-filled peak in 1973.
Russell introduced the world to the Gap Band, a group of fellow Oklahomans who—before they became funk-disco sensations—backed him on Stop All That Jazz (1974). Russell returned to the Top Forty in 1975 with "Lady Blue," from Will O' the Wisp. Subsequently, Russell explored his roots in country, recording a set of covers by Hank Williams and others (for which he used the pseudonym Hank Wilson) in 1976. Hank Wilson's Back, Vol. 1, recorded in Nashville at producer Owen Bradley's legendary Barn studio, cracked the Top Thirty and netted a minor hit, "Roll in My Sweet Baby's Arms."
His next album was 1978's Americana, whose title nodded to the melting pot of homegrown influences that figured in Russell's music (and presciently anticipated the roots-based Americana movement that would take hold in the Nineties). Well-received tours with Willie Nelson yielded the double-album One for the Road in 1979. He cut a live album with New Grass Revival that was released in 1981. Pianist Bruce Hornsby, a Russell protégé, produced the 1992 comeback album Anything Can Happen.
In 2002 Russell launched a new label, Leon Russell Records, on which he released albums by himself and artists he discovered. Among his first releases on the label was Signature Songs (2001), wherein he reprised his best-known songs in stripped-down arrangements for voice and piano. Now that Russell had the freedom of his own label, torrent of work followed, including Moonlight & Love Songs (2002), Angel in Disguise (2007) and more volumes in the "Hank Wilson" series.
Over the course of five decades, Russell has proven himself to be a proudly eclectic product of America's vast musical landscape. "I like all kinds of music, and I hate to do the same thing all the time," he remarked of his far-ranging muse.
Russell's career received a major push in 2010 when Elton John—who has often cited him as an early influence—approached him about a collaboration. T-Bone Burnett produced the project, which included cameos from Neil Young and Brian Wilson. The resulting album, The Union, entered the Billboard chart at Number Three—Russell's highest showing since 1972's Carney. Rolling Stone would rank it as the Number Three album of 2010. Moreover, the single "If It Wasn't for Bad," written by Russell, earned a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals. The Union also included "Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes," a warm song of tribute by John for and about his fellow pianist, mentor and collaborator.

Project Music
Scope and aims
Project Music covers all music-related articles. This include articles about songs, CDs and musicians. Usually the notability standards are to only have articles about Japanese and English songs, CDs and musicians, but occasionally exceptions are made.
The main goals of this project are:
- Identify songs, CDs and musicians deserving of articles on Bulbapedia.
- To create comprehensive articles about each notable song, CD and musician.
- Improve existing articles. Currently many of the articles under this project are stubs, and changing that should be one of the primary concerns.
Names in italics are administrators, and are listed directly under the leader for easy reference. To join the project, simply add your name to the bottom of this list:

Article titles
For Japanese music articles, the page title should be the translated version - not the Romanized version. If there are a song and a CD that share a name (as they often do) - the song page should get the "clean" title, while the CD page should get " (CD)" or " (single)" in its title. The song page should link to the CD page. Human characters may keep their Romaji names (like in Takeshi's Paradise), but Pokémon take their English names (like in Big Meowth Day).
Article models
Song articles
As a frame of reference, Aim to Be a Pokémon Master should be taken as the standard to which all song articles should aspire.
If the article is about an opening/ending theme of the anime, then the article should start with the Template:PrevNext bar. Next is the song infobox (see below).
After these templates, an opening paragraph should follow, giving all basic information about the song, including the CD(s) it can be found on, in what episodes/movies it was used, etc.
If the song was used as an opening/ending theme in the anime, the next section should be Synopsis, followed by Characters, divided to Human and Pokémon.
Other sections that should follow if relevant, in this order, are Lyrics, Credits, Trivia, External links and navigation templates. If the Template:PrevNext bar was used in the begining of the article, it should now be copied here as well. Last comes the project notice and (of course) the categorization.
CD articles
A CD article should start with the CD infobox template (see below). The first paragraph should then contain all basic information about the CD, including its language, source of inspiration, and a brief repeat of the information on the short infobox.
Subsequent paragraphs should include further information, such as non-audio features included in the CD, international releases, ect.
Next should come the Tracklist section, listing the tracks in the order they appear in. The track names should be bolded and link to the song articles. Each track name should be followed by the name of the artist and the track's length. The final section should be Trivia, if there is any notable trivia information to include.
Then come relevant navigation templates, followed by the project notice and (of course) the categorization.
The only top-level category that covers this project is Music. All of the project's articles should be categorized in a subcategory of this category. It has 3 subcategories:
Divided by languages only.
Divided to languages, Opening themes, and Ending themes.
The Opening and Ending Themes categories are divided by language, while the language categories are divided into several other categories - which means that many every Opening and Ending Theme article can and should be categorized in more than one category.
Divided by languages only.

Get that Baby to Bed!
by Patty Onderko
Middle-of-the-Night Tips and Tricks for when he goes to sleep but doesn't stay asleep
Your baby went to sleep without a fuss at 7:30 p.m., allowing you and your partner to actually sit down for dinner together. As you ate, you gloated about your success in getting your child to sleep through the night (finally!). You even got to watch an episode of Weeds. But as you crawl under your own covers a few hours later, the green light on the baby monitor glares at you ominously. You nervously glance at it as you drift off. Moments later — noooooooo! — the baby pops awake and starts squeaking like a rusty swing.
Welcome to the next stage of sleeplessness. Even after your baby starts snoozing for long stretches, usually by 6 months or so, at times (okay, most times) he may regress to those early days of caterwauling at 10 p.m. or 1 a.m. or 3:27 a.m. (not that you're watching the clock or anything). And while you have your bedtime routine — whether it's bath-bottle-book or some version of the cry-it-out method — down pat, you're hardly in the mood for Goodnight Moon at two in the morning. How, HOW, you wearily ask the gods and the ceiling fan, do we get the baby to go back to bed so we can all get some rest? At long last, we've got the answers.
In a perfect world
Before we go further, let's start with how the experts might answer that question (we know because we asked). First, they suggest, wait a few minutes before responding to your whimpering tot unless he sounds frantic. If he doesn't quiet down, you may then tiptoe to the crib — babies should never sleep in a swing or bouncy seat, the experts warn — and, without making eye contact or turning on the lights, check to make sure he's not wet or feverish. Assuming he's not, you can then rub his tummy and whisper a lullaby before sneaking back out. And the golden rule of putting a baby down? Always put your infant back to bed drowsy but awake.
Now, we're sure that somewhere, in some galaxy (though probably one far, far from here), there is some lucky mom for whom this drowsy tuck-in method actually works every time. And we're really, really happy for her (though we're not sure we ever want to meet her). Because for the rest of us, things aren't always so simple. For the rest of us, things are, well, a bit messier.
In the real world
Take Nancy Smith, Babytalk's own art director, for example. After dark, her New York City home becomes a sleep merry-go-round, with family members hopping on and off at all hours. Around midnight, her 5-year-old-daughter, Bea, wakes up from a nightmare and climbs into bed with her and her husband, John. Around 2 or 3 a.m., her 11/2-year-old daughter, Frances, begins to wail and also seeks refuge at Nancy's side, forcing John to move to Bea's vacated twin bed. Hearing her dad in the bottom bunk, 7-year-old Roma wakes up and wants in on the action. She heads for the master bed, causing Nancy to attempt to move Frances back to her crib?and so on and so on until it's time to get up.
My own 8-month-old twin boys sleep fine from 7:30 p.m. to 4 a.m., at which point one of them wakes up and starts howling. I shuttle the offending tot into the swing as quickly as possible, so as not to rouse his brother, an effort that often fails. And when it does, I plop the other twin into his vibrating bouncy seat?and everyone sleeps for another two hours or so. Yes, I have heard that the sleep a baby gets in a swing, stroller, or bouncy seat isn't as "quality" as the sleep he gets in his crib, but isn't it better than no sleep at all? And what about me? Don't I deserve to get a little sleep, too?
Reader Cristina Bohning of Parma, Ohio, says "yes!" "As far as I'm concerned, when your baby is not sleeping, anything goes," asserts the mother of 7-month-old Addison and 3-year-old Jack. "Your pediatrician is not the one there at three a.m."
And to that we cry, "Hallelujah!" Because on top of being delirious and exhausted in those predawn hours when our little ones rouse, why should we also feel guilty about how we get them back to sleep? Every baby and every parent is different, so there's no way the standard-issue back-to-sleep techniques we read about in books will work for everyone. And that's a point even the experts will concede. "It's really important to be flexible," says Ann Douglas, the author of several parenting books, including Sleep Solutions for Your Baby, Toddler, and Preschooler. "Nothing about family life is neat and one-size-fits-all. We need to recognize that our kids are going to need a little troubleshooting in the middle of the night."
Midnight rebels
So the next time (like, tonight) your pop-up baby pops up after you've gone down and you're feeling bad for bringing her into bed with you (again) or worried that you're going to cause future obesity by feeding her a bottle (again), take heart: You're not alone. "Although all the books and all the moms in my moms' group say I shouldn't, I usually end up nursing my son back to sleep," says Jeanie Lyudmer, mom of 71/2-month-old Jack in New York City. "I've tried other methods, and sometimes they work, but he's up again in ten minutes. This stage won't last forever, and he won't be so small and cuddly forever, so I am not going to beat myself up about it."
She's not the only one breaking "rules" after dark for the sake of a little shut-eye. "Every night, my son wakes up crying and won't stop until he's in my bed," says Sheila Wilson of Oklahoma City. "It makes his dad mad, but what more can I do when I have to wake up early to go to work?"
Sometimes it's the very rules we set for ourselves that we end up tossing out the moonlit window. Before she was pregnant, Beth Bedrin-Lindgren of Elk Grove, California, had very particular ideas about what she thought was the best way for a baby to sleep at night. Then she had her twins, Lily and Owen. Eight months later, Bedrin-Lindgren says things have turned out a bit differently. "I nurse them to sleep … even though I swore I wouldn't. I sleep with them in our bed?even though I swore I wouldn't. And I've rocked Lily so much I thought I would scramble her brains!"
And you know that recommendation about television? The one that says infants under age 2 shouldn't watch any at all? Let's just say that most of the moms we talked to don't exactly agree. And while studies have shown that television may actually hype babies up, making it more difficult for them to fall asleep, it's hard to argue that point at 1:45 a.m. with a rattled mom whose little popper-upper won't stop fussing until she's watching a late-night superglue infomercial.
When her daughter was around 12 months, Janey Goude of Lexington, South Carolina, "finally appreciated having a TV in our bedroom, something I'd always been opposed to. I'd prop her up between me and my husband and put a Barney tape in. In no time, she'd be out. That purple dinosaur never sounded so good!"
Good night and good luck
Now, we're not ones to advocate toilet-papering your neighbor's house or graffiti-ing your name on bathroom stalls, but a little rule breaking, especially when it comes to middle-of-the-night sleep troubleshooting, can be healthy. It means you're listening to your gut and trusting that you know your child — and what works for him — better than anyone else. Do you want to babyproof your bed before co-sleeping? Of course; go to AskDrSears.com for complete safe co-sleeping guidelines. Do you want to make sure your child is fastened securely into his swing, glider, or bouncy? Certainly. Do you consider a wet diaper, a fever, or illness as a possible cause for your babe's night waking? Duh. But here's the thing: We're all good moms (you better believe it!), and we're all just doing our best to help the whole family get some rest, which is a huge factor in every human's happiness quotient How to Be a Happier Mom). Whether we're putting them in swings, letting them sleep with us, giving them a bottle, or doing any of the other quirky back-to-sleep strategies we've discovered work for our tykes, we're doing it lovingly. And that, in our estimation, is what makes for a good night's rest.

Genetics & Diabetes : What's Your Risk?
A school nurse anxiously wants to know if there is a reason why several children from her small grade school have been diagnosed with type 1 (juvenile onset) diabetes. Is it an epidemic? Will there be more cases? Is a recent chicken pox outbreak to blame?
A man in his 50s develops type 2 diabetes. His mother developed diabetes in her 60s. Should this man's brother and sister be concerned, too? What about his children's chances of developing diabetes?
A married couple wants to have children, but they are concerned because the husband has type 1 diabetes. They wonder what the risk is that their child would have diabetes.
A couple has three young children. One of the children develops type 1 diabetes. There's no history of diabetes anywhere in either parent's families. Is this just a fluke? What are the chances the other children will develop diabetes?
Chances are if you or a loved one have diabetes, you may wonder if you inherited it from a family member or you may be concerned that you will pass the disease on to your children.
Researchers at Joslin Diabetes Center report that, while much has been learned about what genetic factors make one more susceptible to developing diabetes than another, many questions remain to be answered. While some people are more likely to get diabetes than others, and in some ways type 2 (adult onset diabetes) is simpler to track than type 1 (juvenile onset) diabetes, the pattern is not always clear.
For more than 20 years researchers in the Epidemiology and Genetics Section at Joslin in Boston (Section Head Andrzej S. Krolewski, M.D., Ph.D., Senior Investigator James H. Warram, M.D., Sc.D., and colleagues) have been studying diabetes incidence and hereditary factors. They are continuing a scientific journey begun by Elliott P. Joslin, M.D., who in 1946 launched a 20-year study to determine the prevalence of diabetes cases in his small hometown of Oxford, MA. Over the years, Joslin researchers have studied many generations of families to determine how best to predict who is at risk for diabetes.
Diabetes affects an estimated 20.8 million Americans (about 6.2 million are undiagnosed and therefore unaware that they have the disease), with an estimated 1.5 million Americans diagnosed each year. Type 2 diabetes represents about 90 to 95 percent of the cases, and is more common in people in their 40s and beyond, in certain ethnic groups, and in those who are obese and sedentary. According to the American Diabetes Association, type 1 diabetes accounts for 5 to 10 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes. Each year, over 13,000 new cases of type 1 diabetes are diagnosed in children and teenagers, making it one of the most common chronic diseases in American children. People with type 1 diabetes do not produce insulin, a hormone that regulates how cells obtain energy from food; in type 2, the pancreas produces too little insulin or the body is not able to properly use insulin the body does produce. Diabetes is a major cause of heart disease, blindness, kidney disease, nerve damage and other complications.
According to Dr. Warram, several factors are central to the risk question: the person with diabetes has most likely inherited a predisposition to the disease, and secondly, something in the environment triggers the disease. For the average American, the chance of developing type 1 diabetes by age 70 years is 1 in 100 (1 percent), while the corresponding chances of getting type 2 diabetes are at 1 in 9 (11 percent). Knowing what the odds are is one thing; but one can still get the disease even if he or she is not at apparent high risk.
Type 1 Diabetes Odds
Just who is at risk for developing type 1 diabetes? Here's a sampling of what Dr. Warram, a Lecturer in Epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health, said is known:
- If an immediate relative (parent, brother, sister, son or daughter) has type 1 diabetes, one's risk of developing type 1 diabetes is 10 to 20 times the risk of the general population; your risk can go from 1 in 100 to roughly 1 in 10 or possibly higher, depending on which family member has the diabetes and when they developed it.
- If one child in a family has type 1 diabetes, their siblings have about a 1 in 10 risk of developing it by age 50.
- The risk for a child of a parent with type 1 diabetes is lower if it is the mother — rather than the father — who has diabetes. "If the father has it, the risk is about 1 in 10 (10 percent) that his child will develop type 1 diabetes — the same as the risk to a sibling of an affected child," Dr. Warram says. On the other hand, if the mother has type 1 diabetes and is age 25 or younger when the child is born, the risk is reduced to 1 in 25 (4 percent) and if the mother is over age 25, the risk drops to 1 in 100 — virtually the same as the average American.
- If one of the parents developed type 1 diabetes before age 11, their child's risk of developing type 1 diabetes is somewhat higher than these figures and lower if the parent was diagnosed after their 11th birthday.
- About 1 in 7 people with type 1 has a condition known as type 2 polyglandular autoimmune syndrome. In addition to type 1 diabetes, these people have thyroid disease, malfunctioning adrenal glands and sometimes other immune disorders. For those with this syndrome, the child's risk of having the syndrome, including type 1 diabetes, is 1 in 2, according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA).
Caucasians (whites) have a higher risk of type 1 diabetes than any other race. Whether this is due to differences in environment or genes is unclear. Even among whites, most people who are susceptible do not develop diabetes. Therefore, scientists are studying what environmental factors may be at work. Genes influencing the function of the immune system are the most closely linked to type 1 diabetes susceptibility, regardless of race. One of those genes is HLA-DR. Most Caucasians with diabetes carry alleles (gene variants) 3 and/or 4 of the HLA-DR gene. The HLA-DR7 allele plays a role in diabetes in blacks, while HLA-DR9 allele is important in diabetes among Japanese.
Climate and Clusters
Among Caucasians, diabetes risk varies geographically. In general, the risk is higher in Northern Europeans than Southern Europeans. While climate may contribute to this, the fact that Sardinia in the Mediterranean also has a high risk goes against this theory. Generally the number of new cases over time fluctuates up and down, making it difficult to find an overall pattern. In recent decades, there has been an increase in type 1 diabetes in the United States and Europe. While Asians generally have a much lower incidence of type 1 diabetes, Japan is also experiencing an increasing incidence. "The gene pool doesn't change much within one generation, so there must be an environmental or behavioral factor involved," Dr. Warram says.
Temporal clusters of type 1 diabetes cases (i.e. those that occur around the same time — whether within families, a school or a geographical region), prompt people to suspect an environmental agent. However, no consistent explanation has come up for these clusters, and it is impossible to rule out the possibility of just coincidence. Given the fact that the development of diabetes takes many years in most cases, a clustering in time seems more likely due to chance than a common cause, Dr. Warram says. "From what we know, the autoimmune process leading to the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas is quite long. People can have antibodies signaling damage to the beta cells for many years without developing diabetes," Dr. Warram says. (For information about a study to identify who is at risk for type 1 diabetes and to see if this destruction can be slowed or prevented.
Take the "outbreak" at the grade school mentioned above. Chances are, the youngsters were not attending the same school or even living in the same neighborhood when the lengthy autoimmune process leading to diabetes began. (In that process, the body's disease-fighting immune system malfunctions, turning against the body's own tissues and destroying them.) While we can't be certain, it seems unlikely that we could observe a particular exposure that caused the youngsters to develop diabetes at the same time," Dr. Warram says. "Most likely it's a matter of chance. While it is not comforting to say rare events can happen by chance, rare events are happening all the time within a given population and the chances of them occurring in one place — like a school — is high."
Trauma as a Trigger
Some people have questioned whether a body trauma, like a car crash, or a viral infection like mumps, could trigger the onset of type 1 diabetes. Such events increase the body's insulin requirement and strain the insulin production system if it is being destroyed by a malfunctioning immune system. "As the demands on the body increase, it can tip the body's insulin production system over the edge," Dr. Warram says. But the trauma itself did not "cause" the diabetes, he says.
Much has been said about a possible link between Coxsackie virus, which causes human diseases such as meningitis, and the triggering of type 1 diabetes. "You can't dismiss the fact that sometimes the virus has been present, but its connection with the diabetes is unclear," Dr. Warram says. Scientists do have some significant evidence that mumps does not trigger diabetes, however. A Maryland study showed that despite a great decline in mumps cases after the mumps vaccine was introduced 30 years ago, the incidence of type 1 diabetes did not change.
Some scientists believe early diet may have a role. Prolonged breastfeeding is less common in children who developed type 1 diabetes. While some studies have pointed to exposure to cow's milk, Dr. Warram says much remains to be learned before we can assess the importance of this mechanism. To be prudent, mothers of infants at high risk of developing diabetes may want to breastfeed as long as possible and rely on cow's milk only in moderation after the baby is weaned.
Tracking Type 2 Diabetes
Patients with type 2 diabetes are more likely to know of a relative with diabetes than patients with type 1 and, therefore, suppose that diabetes "runs in the family." To some extent the appearance of "clustering" of type 2 diabetes in families is simply the consequence of the fact that type 2 is so much more common than type 1 diabetes in the general population. Moreover, the occurrence of multiple cases in a family may reflect shared "environmental risk factors," such as obesity and sedentary lifestyle, and does not imply necessarily the sharing of a diabetes gene. In general, the risk of diabetes for a sibling of a patient with type 2 diabetes is about the same as that in the general population. However, there are some exceptions to this general statement. If the patient developed diabetes despite being lean, then the sibling's risk is about twice the general population risk. Or, if the patient has a parent with type 2 diabetes, the sibling's risk is almost three times the general population risk. If both parents have type 2 diabetes, the sibling has a fourfold risk, or nearly a 50% chance of developing diabetes.
The genetics of type 2 diabetes is complex. While type 2 diabetes may have a strong genetic basis in some patients (something less than a third of them), the development of diabetes in most patients is dependent upon the effects of environmental and behavioral factors (obesity and sedentary lifestyle) on an underlying susceptibility that is poorly understood.
What about MODY?
Over Dr. Warram's desk is a chart of several generations of one family. About half of the people in the family have developed a form of type 2 diabetes called MODY (maturity-onset diabetes of the young) that typically develops in people in their teens and 20s. The family is one of about 50 families with MODY studied by the Joslin researchers. "In this family, every generation is affected and every family member with MODY had a parent with MODY," Dr. Warram says.
Joslin researchers and others have identified about six genes that produce MODY, but they only account for the diabetes in about one-third of the families. "The diabetes in the rest of the families so far is unexplained," he says.
Similar patterns can be found in studies of families with the more common form of type 2 diabetes, only the age of onset differs.
The susceptibility to certain diabetes complications also seems to be linked in some ways with genetics. For patients with susceptibility genes for complications, good blood glucose control is still an important mitigating factor.
Scientists at Joslin and elsewhere are studying genetic factors that may make some people with diabetes more susceptible to complications as well.
An Individual Decision
If there's one thing Dr. Warram feels strongly about, it's not to advise people considering having a baby or marrying someone with diabetes in the family. "I do not mind telling people what we know about diabetes risks, but I am not qualified to give an opinion about their choice. These are matters of personal choice and what's important to me may not be important to someone else," he says.
"To be told a child has a 4 percent or 10 percent risk of diabetes sounds very absolute and scientific," he says. "But a myriad other things can go wrong with a child — medically and socially — and these risks cannot be measured precisely. Also, there are a myriad other things that can go right for a child. Even if a child does develop diabetes, it needn't prevent him or her from finding success and happiness in life. "Raising children — whether they are your own or adopted — is an experience involving risks of great rewards and risks of great costs that can't really be known in advance. If a number can be attached to one of those risks, should it weigh more than the others?"

è bello scopare in quattro soprattutto se si è affiatati.
a little bit to the end the girls hold hands like they need each other for sex
The best foursome I ever had was in a completely dark bedroom, all that gropeing not knowing if it was a girl or the other guy, I must admit to having a sneeky suck of the guy's cock, I often wonder if he knew?
Notice from Hotel Management: For the consideration of other residents please keep noise to an acceptable level. Thank You. BTW You wil be charged for any soiled bedlinen plus a surchage wil be levied for the double occuppancy of the room.

Been there done that and still going, these are porn film professionals not amateurs not really wife swapping just shagging for the camera, takes the edge off of reality!
Why do these porn videos only feature "young 'uns" - my wife and I who are in our late 50s, have Friday nite fuck fests with a group of swingers that would make this video look like a sock-hop from the 50s! Our group motto is "Anything Goes and Don't Say No"!
