Baltimore Public Library on MONSTER
"Wanton debauchery, an all-consuming thirst for vengeance, satanic worship, madness, an undead predator-- any of these characteristics could be utilized to describe a monster. Readers encounter a plethora of individuals that qualify for this label in Dave Zeltserman's new release Monster. In Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, the creature fashioned from different human body parts and brought to life by Victor Frankenstein is easily classified as the monster. Zeltserman's novel is the story of the unfortunate and unwitting brain donor used in the mad doctor's creation. Written in a style that mirrors Shelley's original work, this is a dark and menacing tale about a tortured man trapped in the body of an abomination.
Friedrich Hoffman is a young man convicted of killing his betrothed a week before their marriage. After suffering an agonizing and horrendous death on the wheel, he awakens on a slab in Frankenstein's laboratory. His intelligence and memory are intact and he quickly comes to suspect his creator's involvement in his beloved's death as well as his own false conviction. The black magic employed in the creature's reanimation leave Friedrich powerless to exact revenge on his enemy. Friedrich is not the only innocent victim to be ensnared in Frankenstein's web. Something even more sinister and disturbing is planned in an abandoned castle in a remote mountainous region south of Geneva. Friedrich's remaining humanity is called into question as he struggles with whether to intervene or be complacent with the sordid plans of Frankenstein and the evil Marquis de Sade.
Monster is a gripping gothic horror tale, brilliantly told. Zeltserman is an accomplished author of mystery, horror and noir. He has earned the Shamus, Derringer and Ellery Queen's Readers' Choice awards and could very well be on track to another winner with Monster.

MIDDLEBURY — At the Ilsley Library on Sept. 13, Vermont Commissioner for Department of Vermont Health Access Mark Larson described the workings of the Vermont Health Benefit Exchange that will by 2014 will serve as the central purchasing point for all the state's insurance plans — and touched on how the Exchange will help Vermont transition into a single-payer health care system by 2017.
This past spring, the Legislature passed Act 48, which created not only the Exchange, something mandated by the federal Affordable Care Act, but also the Green Mountain Care Board and the framework for Vermont's transition to a single-payer system.
According to the health access department website, "Vermont's Exchange will become the platform for Vermont's single-payer system" that will "replace private insurance tied to employment with universal coverage that encourages efficiency, lowers overhead costs, and incentivizes health outcomes."
Specifically, Larson said the technological infrastructure that the $104 million federal grant awarded to Vermont last week will be designed to support the single-payer system, to be administered by the Agency of Human Services, in which the Exchange can still play a role.
"We are trying to make sure everything we build in this phase is usable and valuable in that phase," Larson said.
According to the website, although state officials "are planning ahead in accordance with Act 48 to implement Vermont's single-payer health care system," there are hurdles.
"The single-payer system will not go into effect until a number of milestones are achieved, including obtaining a waiver from the federal government and approval by the Vermont Legislature of a financing plan that meets the requirements of Act 48," it reads.
The Green Mountain Care Board must "oversee certain financial aspects of the system," according to the website, while "Act 48 establishes a Green Mountain Care fund within the state treasury to serve as the (single-payer) program's single funding source."
Although the Shumlin Administration has said that it is still working on a plan to pay for single-payer and won't release a funding plan until next year, the website does provide some broad parameters. It says revenue sources for that Green Mountain Care fund will include:
• "State appropriations authorized by the general assembly."
• "Federal funds received for Medicare and Medicaid."
• "Federal funds received through the health insurance Exchange waiver."
• "Grants, donations, and other revenue sources."
Health officials also believe the system will contain costs because it will "simplify and streamline administrative and claims processes to reduce overhead and enhance efficiency."
They also hope an emphasis on wellness and better primary care, as well as set payments for particular health needs, will encourage cost containment, according to the websites.
The law does not require Vermonters to drop existing private coverage, or prohibit them from purchasing supplemental coverage, according to the online information.

LONDON (AFP) – Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger accused Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich of failing to show loyalty to Roberto di Matteo after the Italian was sacked just months after winning the Champions League.
Abramovich displayed his ruthless side once again on Wednesday as he axed di Matteo following a poor recent run that saw the Blues surrender their position on top of the Premier League and left them in severe danger of failing to reach the Champions League knockout stages.
But the decision surprised and saddened Wenger, who claimed di Matteo deserved more time to get things back on track after leading Chelsea to their first ever Champions League triumph, as well as winning the FA Cup, during his spell as caretaker boss last season.
"I find it surprising and very sad personally. I believe it is important on our side to show loyalty," Wenger said after his side's 2-0 Champions League win over Montpellier on Wednesday.
"Di Matteo came in in a difficult situation and won the Champions League and FA Cup.
"He did well and there wasn't even any time this season. It is a complete surprise and very sad news."
Wenger was also surprised Rafael Benitez agreed to replace di Matteo on a short-term contract.
Benitez was appointed as Chelsea's interim manager just hours after Abramovich sacked di Matteo following Tuesday's 3-0 defeat at Juventus.
But the former Liverpool, Inter Milan and Valencia coach is in charge only until the end of the season and Wenger believes a manager with his CV should have been looking for a permanent deal.
"It is a surprise as well. Benitez is a guy with a good record and a manager of stature," Wenger said.
"It is a surprise he is appointed for such a short time and I'm surprised he accepted it."

/Moonkin Happy Dance
Oh man does this feel awesome. I went to bed happy. I woke up happy. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from me. It is a little disturbing how big of an impact this is having on my day. However, it has been almost 5 months since the first time I attempted her before the breakup, and this fight did contribute to that break up to some extent. I guess my feelings come down to the fact that I wanted to down her for so long, but I was unsure if I would ever get the chance. Now that it has happened I am on top of Azeroth.
We tried her for the first time in over a week on Monday, and it went very well. An old guildie that now raids a warlock on another server logged into our vent and gave us a couple of good suggestions. After making a couple of changes we had our most successful night on her ever. In all of our other nights we only got out of phase2 once. On Monday we got out 3 or 4 times including a 1% wipe. (It seems like we always have to have a 1% wipe.)
We had an optimal group for Monday, so I was a little bummed that we didn't down her. Our main Shadow Priest wasn't going to be on again until Wednesday and a couple of people were pushing to try her again on Tuesday. I must admit that I was a little worried to try her again on Tuesday because we wouldn't have a shadow priest. Its not just the fact that Necrodamus is an awesome player, but the debuffs he provides are huge. We generally raid with 4 - 6 warlocks that benifit from Shadow Weaving, not to mention the extra 5% from misery for the entire raid. I was worried that without those debuffs we would have another bad night and people would get discouraged.
Well, two things happened. First, things went pretty well without a shadow priest. The striders were a little slower than Monday, but we did get to phase 3 a couple of times. Second, one of our old Shadow Priests returned from the dead. We were one healer heavy in the raid so we got the Spriest in even though he had never done the fight before. The switch paid off and we got Vashj down in 2 or 3 attempts. I have never been this excited about killing a boss before and it is awesome.
The only thing that could have made it a better night was if I had gotten my T5 helm but it was not meant to be. Here are the loots:
[Helm of the Vanquished Hero] x 3
[Krakken-Heart Breastplate]
[Glorious Gauntlets of Crestfall]
I was a little bummed to see 3 Hero tokens. I had hoped for at least one defender token to reduce my competition for future drops but oh well. I will get it eventually.
One last thing before I move on. I know that a couple of my readers are getting close to working on Vashj if you haven't started already. So I thought I would give a couple of pointers that we found very helpful.
1. Kiting the Strider - On our most successful nights we had a Destruction Warlock doing it, but we also had a frost mage and an Affliction lock spec Curse of Exhaustion. If you use a warlock to kite him I highly suggest a destro lock. When we did it with an affliction lock he couldn't build threat fast enough. Having the frost mage probably helped quite a bit also.
2. DPSing the Striders - If you are ranged DPS and don't DPS the Striders at least a little bit then you fail. If you can DPS the Striders then you need to. This includes healers. I am not suggestion that anyone should abandon their primary job. Healers need to keep their people alive, but you can spair two seconds to get off a SW: P or a Moonfire. Elemental DPS needs to get them down but the elementals go down really easy. You can spare 5 or 6 seconds to throw a couple of spells at the striders. In fact, if you are elemental DPS then you should always be DPSing something. It may be Elementals, Striders, or Naga, but there is always somewhere you can help out.
3. Tainted Cores - These will take a little bit to coordinate and master but it is important that you do it quickly. We tried it a couple of different ways and found that Elemental DPS and Elemental Healers have to be involved. At first we tried to have two people pick them all up and throw them to each other, but they couldn't do it quick enough. We ended up loosing a couple of cores that way. The way we did it in the end was having a designated person pick up the core and throw it to the Elemental Healer. The Elemental Healer then threw it to a designated person by a barrier.
Toon Update:
Graylo - Nothing really to add to the awesome work on Vashj. I am thinking about dropping my idol swapping macros though. It feels like I am losing some cast time. I need to go test it out on Dr Doom.
Graypal - Surprisingly, quite a bit has been going on with him. I ran Heroic Mech two nights in a row and he is now about 2800 rep away from Revered with Sha'tar. I was also able to pick up a primal nether to make the leg enchant. I was also able to hit exalted with Scryers thanks to Necrodamus. He is an old WoW friend of mine that goes all the way back to FoC. He gave me 100 Scryer signets to ding exalted. Now that I am exalted I picked up the Shoulder Enchant and purchased [Seer's Signet]. I also enchanted both of my rings. All of this combined and I am almost to 1000 shadow damage. His gear is getting very respectable. I might even be able to get him into ZA some time.
Grayfel - Building rested XP as usual.

Nutrition Tip March 5 2011
Comments: Who would have thought that yogurt could be so confusing?!? An 8 oz. container of plain yogurt will usually have the most calcium. From there, it can drop by 100-300 mg depending on the size of container and other ingredients used which decrease the volume of milk. When decreasing the size of your yogurt in order to decrease your calorie intake, remember, you're also decreasing healthy things like calcium. Calories usually range from 60-240 depending on size and type. Light will have the least calories since it uses a sugar substitute. While Splenda might be considered a "safe" substitute, if the yogurt also contains acesulfame potassium, avoid it just like aspartame (both have had somewhat weak studies show a correlation to cancer risk). Beware that some "fat-free" yogurts use artificial sweeteners as well. Furthermore, some yogurts have more ingredients than candy bars, using colorings, sweeteners, etc to make them appeal to us! If you like the taste of whipped yogurts, realize that not only are you getting less calcium, protein, etc, you're also paying for air!
What to buy: Organic yogurt whenever possible, plain yogurt without hormones to be mixed with honey, fruit, etc., or milk to make your own!
What to leave: Yogurts containing aspartame or acesulfame potassium, those that do not identify themselves as hormone-free ,whipped yogurts with little nutritional value, low-fat yogurts with 240+ calories and 30+ grams of sugar!

Vatican City, Feb 5, 2013 / 11:53 am (CNA/EWTN News).- A unique art exhibition aimed at giving "voice to the nostalgia for God" found in modern culture will open at Castel Sant'Angelo tomorrow as part of the Year of Faith.
The exhibit will bring together works from nine countries and will allow visitors to both contemplate beauty and "have an important meeting with the image of Peter," Archbishop Rino Fisichella, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting New Evangelization told CNA on Feb. 5.
That encounter with St. Peter, he added, will give viewers a chance to grow in faith.
The exhibition, called "The Path of Peter," was introduced by Archbishop Fisichella at the Holy See press office on Feb. 5. It features pieces that range from the 4th and 5th centuries all the way until the 20th century.
"First of all, it's good to explain the 'why' of this exhibit," Archbishop Fisichella said, underscoring that the aim of the show is to reinforce the desire for God that is present in everyone's heart.
The new evangelization council decided to organize the exhibit because "Peter is the image of humanity that seeks and that finds and that, after having found, follows," the archbishop said.
"Looking upon the work of art, believers and non-believers have different reactions, but beauty expresses a call to one and all to listen to the message that can be perceived in the silence of contemplation," he observed.
The Path of Peter exhibition will last from Feb. 6 until May 1 and is taking place at Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome.
The president of the new evangelization council also offered some insights into the contemporary cultural situation.
He believes that the current moment is "strongly characterized by contradictory movements … On the one hand it seems that there is a general feeling of fatigue and indifference that even affects our faith" and assumes faith is no longer relevant."On the other hand," he noted, "there is the excessive enthusiasm for scientific progress and new lifestyles as if these were the solutions to today's serious problems."
The conclusion that is frequently presented in response to these desires is to say that "it is good to limit faith's sphere to the private, denying its social or cultural effect."
And yet, Archbishop Fisichella said that the desire for transcendent beauty remains strong, a fact that can be seen in the constant demand for the beauty of nature and works of art.
Looking ahead to the rest of Pope Benedict's Year of Faith – which lasts until Nov. 24 – Archbishop Fisichella said his council is planning several events in Rome that will "testify that faith is not just something private, but on the contrary, is something that is lived together with the community, and also as a public sign for the world."
Launched on Oct. 11 of 2012, the Pope's Year of Faith marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the Second Vatican Council and has been heralded as an opportunity for Catholics to renew their faith in order to share it more fully with those around them.

Famed Appeals Court Judge Worries That Allowing People To Record Police Might Mean That People Actually Record The Police
from the wtf? dept
"If you permit the audio recordings, they'll be a lot more eavesdropping.…There's going to be a lot of this snooping around by reporters and bloggers," U.S. 7th Circuit Judge Richard Posner said. "Yes, it's a bad thing. There is such a thing as privacy."...Say what now? We're talking about recording public officials who are paid with taxpayer dollars doing a job in public, and Posner is worried about their privacy rights? Wouldn't it be a good thing for reporters and bloggers to be "snooping around" police if it turns up problems or corruption? And, really, since other courts have already declared similar rules unconstitutional, and it hasn't rendered those kinds of states into this crazy dystopia that judge Posner envisions, shouldn't that be evidence that these "concerns" are out of touch with reality?

(Reuters) - United Continental Holdings Inc UAL.N recorded a bigger quarterly loss and Southwest Airlines Co (LUV.N) posted lower profit on Thursday, but results topped expectations and the carriers said current bookings were solid.
Shares of both carriers were up in afternoon trading.
Southwest said bookings for the remainder of the current quarter were "strong" so far, while United said the percentage of available seats sold for the next six weeks was running higher for domestic, international and regional segments.
"Business for us has been good," Southwest Chief Executive Gary Kelly told analysts on a conference call. He said the carrier had seen no signs of weakening consumer sentiment.
In the fourth quarter, higher overall costs hurt both United Continental and Southwest, even as fuel expenses moderated. United, which angered fliers after technology glitches sparked massive delays last year, also recorded big charges.
"Our operations are running smoothly ... and our customer satisfaction scores are climbing," United Chief Executive Jeff Smisek said on a conference call.
United said it planned to slash more than 600 management and administrative positions to cut costs and will begin customer service training to win back customers who defected following its 2010 merger with Continental that included converting to a new computer reservation system.
United, the world's largest carrier, said its quarterly net loss widened to $620 million, or $1.87 a share, from $138 million, or 42 cents a share, a year earlier.
It took charges of $430 million in the latest quarter, with much of that tied to paying off pension obligations and costs for systems integration and training.
Excluding items, United's quarterly loss was 58 cents a share, better than the 61 cent loss expected by analysts, on average, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Revenue fell 2.5 percent to $8.7 billion. Operating costs rose 3.2 percent. While fuel expenses edged down 0.3 percent, salaries and maintenance materials were higher by 4 percent and 9.2 percent, respectively.
"These large mergers tend to create a lot of headaches," said Matthew Jacob, an airline analyst with ITG Investment. "Maybe the efficiencies will take a little bit more time to develop as they try to combine these two large companies and operate them together."
At Southwest, the traditional low-fare leader that acquired AirTran in 2011, net income fell 49 percent to $78 million, or 11 cents a share, in the fourth quarter, from $152 million, or 20 cents, a year earlier.
Excluding items, profit was 9 cents a share, compared with the average analyst estimate of 8 cents, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Revenue rose 1.6 percent to $4.17 billion. Operating expenses were up 3 percent, with wages and salaries up 4.5 percent. Fuel and oil costs increased 0.7 percent.
"Costs continue to increase but what we see at Southwest is a strong ability, especially over the past few quarters, to keep costs controlled," said Logan Purk, an analyst with Edward Jones.
Southwest, which faces labor cost pressures as competition heats up not only with older airlines but newer low-cost carriers, is counting on new fees this year to help raise revenues by $1.1 billion and boost earnings.
The airline, which allows passengers to check up to two bags for free, is boosting fees on additional bags and on overweight luggage. Bag fees are rising at AirTran.
United Continental shares were up 1.5 percent to $25.37 in afternoon trading and Southwest gained 0.7 percent to $11.44.

Why exactly is it that "Freeware" and "Non-Free Software" mean the same thing, while "Free Software" is something else entirely? And what is this business with "Free Beer", and where can I get some? If you've asked yourself these questions, this column is for you.
Workstation Benchmarks: Windows 7 vs. Ubuntu Linux: As I alluded to recently, the second round of Windows 7 vs. Linux benchmarks — with the first round consisting of Is Windows 7 Actually Faster Than Ubuntu 10.04 and Mac OS X vs. Windows 7 vs. Ubuntu benchmarks — are currently being done atop a Lenovo ThinkPad W510 notebook that is quite popular with business professionals. With the high-end ThinkPad W510 boasting a dual quad-core Intel Core i7 CPU with Hyper-Threading plus a NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M graphics processor, we began this second round of cross-platform benchmarks by running a set of workstation tests. In this article we are mainly looking at the workstation graphics (via SPECViewPerf) performance along with some CPU/disk tests.
Android Deployments up 868%: Worldwide smartphone analysts Canalys announced that Android deployments had increased by 886 percent in Q2 2010 compared to Q2 2009. The report also showed that Nokia remained at the top of the OEM heap, selling 24 million smartphones in Q1 2010 alone.
Sun takeover latest – Oracle still painfully silent…: In the months since it completed its takeover of Sun Microsystems, Oracle has remained painfully silent over its plans for much of Sun's treasure trove of open source assets.

bash one-liner, Get GPS location and street Address: Combine the power of Google location services with the power of nix shell tools, and you are able to answer the age old question of "Where am I?" right from the comfort of your bash shell! This short article shows you a bash onliner that connects to Google and gets what Google thinks is your GPS location and street address. Quoting the author "If the returned information is wrong, or some kind of "unknown" .. Consider yourself lucky, very lucky! That means Google does not (yet?) know where your wifi AP is. For the rest of us .. tin-foil all the way"
Ubuntu 10.10's New File System: btrfs, A Closer Look: Between ext3, ext4, reiserfs and others, Ubuntu has no shortage of file systems to choose from when installing a new system. And those options are set to become yet more numerous in Ubuntu 10.10, which will introduce support for btrfs. Wondering what this new file system is all about and why it might matter to you?
BCS Linux-baiting sparks flame war: An article on open source security has sparked off a furious backlash in the normally polite and businesslike world of a British Computer Society journal. Commentards have reacted furiously to a piece by Steve Smith, managing director of IT security consultancy Pentura, in the July Edition of ITNow. A lengthy first response by Luke Leighton takes the article apart paragraph by paragraph and contains a dozen expunged swearwords. The opening line of the 4,000 word rebuttal, for example, reads "the BCS is supposed to be a reputable organisation, yet this article – every paragraph – is complete [DELETED]."
Debian Developer Conference under way in New York City: The tenth annual Debian Developer Conference has opened in New York City, marking the first time the event has been held in the U.S. The event will explore the latest developments with the Debian Linux distribution, which underlies Linux distros including Ubuntu, Xandros, and Chrome OS.
Not Having Linux Skills is IT Malpractice: Some things seem so obvious I feel silly even saying them. And this is one of them: any IT staffer who only knows one operating system is not worth hiring. We see the silly Microsoft vs. Linux vs. Apple stories every day, with Ten Reasons Why This One is Better, and 7 Reasons Why That One Sucks, and Five Ways to Make Headlines With Lists. The ones that crack me up are the "10 Scary Hurdles to Migrating to Linux." Ever notice how every single time they mention "You'll need Linux skills!" Oh dear, no! Linux skills? Well there's a dealbreaker! Because it is completely unreasonable to expect your current batch of delicate Windows admins to have any Linux skills. Sigh.
11 free open-source apps your small business can use now: Despite the wealth of free applications out there, many small business owners continue to spend an inordinate amount of their all-too-scarce resources on software. Microsoft Office 2010? That'll be $499.99 — or $279.99 if you can do without the Professional version. QuickBooks 2010? $159.95 or more. Adobe PhotoShop CS5? A whopping $699. The good news is that there are free and open-source alternatives for virtually every package a small business might need, and most of them are excellent. Whether or not you've already made the switch to Linux — there are, after all, myriad security and other reasons for doing so — these free apps can be just what any small business needs to succeed.
Digg, dug, buried: Linux: A liberal blogger has uncovered that a "group of influential conservative members of the behemoth social media site Digg.com has just been caught red-handed in a widespread campaign of censorship, having multiple accounts, up-vote padding, and deliberately trying to ban progressives." The blogger, Ole Ole Olson, infiltrated a group that called itself Digg Patriots. His proof is quite damning.

Photographer Bing Wright's newest project, Broken Mirror/Evening Sky, is a series of images that capture the reflections of sunsets on shattered mirrors. Its colors, textures and overall composition resembles the appearance of luminous stained glass windows. The cracked glass seemingly generates doubled reflections, disjointed gleams and refracted light into shards of images that instantly reminds the viewers of an abstractive painting. The final prints, recently displayed at the Paula Cooper Gallery in NY, are displayed quite large, measuring nearly 4′ across by 6′ tall.
This new body of work is Marks Wright's first return to color photography in almost a decade.(via Colossal)

Last week we gathered at a friend's house to learn about and celebrate Hannukah. It was a great fun evening which we will be repeating. We left a little wiser about this particular celebration and with a much deeper appreciation of any holiday that emphasizes fried food (latkes and donuts) and gambling (dreidels) as part of its celebration.
It got me thinking about the other celebrations happening this time of year and how we ALL might embrace some of the messages these holidays hold as their center.
Every year those who celebrate Christmas get emotional about about "good will toward men." leading people to remark: why are these emotions only endorsed at this time of year? Why can't we work on these positive expressions all year round?
I think that is an admirable thought -though it is not easy to sustain such emotion all the time. I suspect that when a person says that, they want other people to carry that emotion; if it were simply up to someone deciding to hold goodwill toward all men all year, they could simply do it, right?
So instead of hoping that we and others can carry unreasonable emotions for a long term, how about we take a couple days and totally immerse ourselves in all the holiday spirits that are floating around now.
Which, after my brief celebration of Hannukah, led me to Kwanzaa :a non-religious, non-political reaffirmation of basic values wrapped into a celebration of the African-American life.
These values: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith are NOT values that should be limited only to African-Americans; these are principles and values that everybody can embrace. Again, they should be embraced and practiced all year -like loving our fellow human beings. But, since the challenge of this commitment is a wee too hard to contemplate, let's focus on just a week.
So why not look at these principles and see small steps we can ALL take?
- Meeting a friend over the holidays for coffee? Instead of heading to StarBucks or another coffee chain, find a locally owned cafe or coffee shop to meet at instead. This is cooperative economics.
- Thinking about a holiday gathering and anticipating friction? For just that one day, give up your expectations and simply relax into day vowing not to participate in any of the family/friend drama. That is unity.
- At the same time, volunteering with your family over holiday break can strengthen your ties as a family and bind you in a unique way to your community. This is collective work.
- Spend some time considering your New Year's Resolutions? As a family, spend some time discussing things that each of you need to commit to in order to make your family unit stronger. This is self-determination.
- With children home from school for up to 2 weeks, a craft day is certainly in order. Hello, creativity!

This guy has seemingly mastered the art of failure.
Don't ask me how it happened, for I do not know. A motorcycle cop showed up just after I snapped this, so I wasn't going to interrupt and ask. It's a good thing, too. The discussion would have likely gone like this:
Me: "Pardon me."
Guy: "Yes?"
Me: "What the f***, dude!?"
Guy: "Just driving along, and my trailer flipped over!"

LOL! I am reminded of the "JRA" syndrome at the bike shop. Some gnarly dude will come in with a tacoed wheel, a ripped off derailleur, or a fork benk back so the front tire rubs the downtube. "Dude, what the F***?"
"Man, I was Just Riding Along and......"

Clearly the trailer manufacturer put the wheels on the inverse side of the trailer.
Move the wheels down so they are on the road side of the trailer, and problem is solved.

Park tools and bicycletutor are both places I often visit. Redishing the rear wheel was my thorn.
I'll be doing all the other stuff though.

p.s. #3 son was just in KC picking up some kind of machine that they use building indoor turf arenas. He was at some big soccer complex in the city.
I'll get his take on KC tonight when he returns. All glaringly positive I'm sure.

Huey Long, in full Huey Pierce Long, (born Aug. 30, 1893, near Winnfield, La., U.S.—died Sept. 10, 1935, Baton Rouge, La.), flamboyant and demagogic governor of Louisiana and U.S. senator whose social reforms and radical welfare proposals were ultimately overshadowed by the unprecedented executive dictatorship that he perpetrated to ensure control of his home state.
In spite of an impoverished background, young Long managed to obtain enough formal schooling to pass the bar examination in 1915. He was politically ambitious and won election to the state railroad commission at age 25. In this post his calls for the equitable regulation of the state utility companies and his attacks on Standard Oil earned him widespread popularity. He ran for the Louisiana governorship in 1924 and was defeated, but in 1928 he won the governorship through the heavy support of the discontented rural districts. His picturesque if irreverent speech, fiery oratory, and unconventional buffoonery soon made him nationally famous, and he was widely known by his nickname, "Kingfish." Long made a genuine contribution with an ambitious program of public works and welfare legislation in a state whose road system and social services had been sadly neglected by the wealthy elite that had long controlled the state government. Always the champion of poor whites, he effected a free-textbook law, launched a massive and very useful program of road and bridge building, expanded state university facilities, and erected a state hospital where free treatment for all was intended. He was opposed to excessive privileges for the rich, and he financed his improvements with increased inheritance and income taxes as well as a severance tax on oil—earning him the bitter enmity of the wealthy and of the oil interests.
Long's folksy manner and sympathy for the underprivileged diverted attention from his ruthless autocratic methods. Surrounding himself with gangsterlike bodyguards, he dictated outright to members of the legislature, using intimidation if necessary. When he was about to leave office to serve in the U.S. Senate (1932), he fired the legally elected lieutenant governor and replaced him with two designated successors who would obey him from Washington. In order to fend off local challenges to his control in 1934, he effected radical changes in the Louisiana government, abolishing local government and taking personal control of all educational, police, and fire job appointments throughout the state. He achieved absolute control of the state militia, judiciary, and election and tax-assessing apparatus, while denying citizens any legal or electoral redress.
In the Senate (1932–35) he sought national power with a Share-the-Wealth program ("every man a king"), which was tempting to the Great Depression-shocked public. Had Long been able to unite the various nationwide radical movements, a private poll taken in the spring of 1935 estimated that he would have won up to four million votes in the next year's presidential election, thus wielding a balance of power between the two major parties.
Long was at the height of his power when assassinated by Carl Austin Weiss, the son of a man whom he had vilified. The Long political dynasty was carried on by his brother, Earl K. Long, who served as governor (1939–40, 1948–52, 1956–60), and his son, Russell B. Long, who served in the U.S. Senate from 1948 to 1987.

Reid Says 2 Sides Still Apart on 'Fiscal Cliff' [VIDEO]
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says the two sides are still apart as they race against a midnight deadline for resolving their differences over the "fiscal cliff."
The Nevada Democrat says negotiations are continuing. But he cautioned that bargainers are running out of time and still have differences over some issues, though he did not say what still divides them.
Reid's remarks came Monday morning after the two sides narrowed their differences during an evening of bargaining between Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Vice President Joe Biden.
Without agreement by midnight, wide-ranging tax increases and budget-wide spending cuts -- the so-called fiscal cliff -- will begin taking effect. Though the impact of those changes would be felt gradually, economists have warned that they could cause recession if left intact.

The San Jose City Council Tuesday deferred their decision regarding an ordinance that could allow airport employees and others to shoot blanks and firearms at birds to prevent airline accidents at Mineta San Jose International Airport, an airport spokeswoman said.
The proposed change would permit trained airport employees and contracted biologists to fire blanks or birdshot at flocks of birds to disperse them from runways, airport spokeswoman Rosemary Barnes said.
The 1,000-acre airport includes 300 acres of vegetation that has historically attracted birds, mammals, insects and other forms of wildlife.
The Federal Aviation Administration has required San Jose airport, overseen locally by the city of San Jose, to implement methods to scare away or if needed shoot birds to avoid collisions with airlines, Barnes said.
The FAA has also mandated that the airport use firing birdshot from a gun at the birds as an alterative if blanks fail to disperse them, Barnes said.
"As a last resort the FAA is requiring us to use more aggressive measures if that type of technique is not working," Barnes said, adding that the San Francisco and Oakland international airports both have comparable policies.
However, the city of San Jose prohibits anyone in the city limits from discharging a firearm aside from sworn law enforcement officers, Barnes said.
The airport had started using the fired noisemakers for a time before learning about the city's ban and so the airport is asking the law be amended to ensure compliance with FAA rules, Barnes said.
Airport officials said that there have been 180 reported incidents of bird strikes at the airport since 2009, and that 23 people have died nationwide due to bird collisions with aircraft since 1990.
Concerns over the dangers of flying birds, or "wildlife strikes," have increased across the nation in recent years, including one at San Jose airport on Feb. 16, 2009, when a United Airlines Boeing 747 had to abort takeoff after sea gulls damaged both of its engines.
That incident prompted the FAA to require San Jose airport to prepare a Wildlife Hazard Assessment, in which an FAA-approved biologist studied the airport's environment for 12 months.
After the survey was completed in 2010, the FAA told the airport it had to prepare a Wildlife Hazard Management Plan to prevent bird strikes.
The blanks used in the cracker gun to scare birds are firework-like pyrotechnic shells while the firearms would contain birdshot, Barnes said
The guns would be used only by airport workers or the airport's biologist, both trained by San Jose police on how to use them, Barnes said.
San Jose's Director of Aviation, William Sherry, said in a report to city officials that the option to shoot live ammunition is "critical" to the enforcement of the airport's management plan to control birds from flying into the paths of planes.
But the use of live rounds would be "limited, controlled and documented" based on a permit the airport has received from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Sherry said.
Birds seeking small mammals for prey, such as raptors in the airport's field, as well as insect-eating birds represent the greatest risk to colliding or interfering with flying aircraft at the airport, Sherry said.
In June, seagulls attracted to insects at the airport collided with a Southwest Boeing 737 airline, causing about $50,000 in damage to its engines, he said.
Although a discussion of the ordinance was scheduled for today's consent calendar, the council deferred the item to be discussed later, likely at their Dec. 4 meeting, according to the mayor's office.

DNA nano-structures have proved to be very effective tools in solving Structural Biology and Biophysics problems, with potential applications in fields such as Nano-medicine. However, since it may not always be possible to have functional nano-structures in a given system, a structure which folds into an appropriate configuration based on specific triggers would be more useful. The strand exchange system for actuating DNA nano-structures results in the generation of dsDNA waste products that increase the systems' toxicity. The time-scale of system response is extremely high owing to diffusional limitations.
An exciting alternative to this technique is the use of environmental triggers (such as pH, temperature, light). This reduces the response time and results in spatio-temporal homogeneity of system response. As there is no addition of any synthetic intermediate, the system is comparatively "Clean".
Our project is a proof-of-concept demonstration of an environmentally triggered DNA nano-structure – specifically, a DNA walker activated by a pH change. This pH-based construct has been designed using a single strand of DNA rich in Cytosine repeats which undergoes a conformational change at a low pH, releasing a walker strand from its bound configuration onto a neighboring strand present on the track.
This system is a putative candidate for probing systems with varying pH, notably cancer and tumor cell systems.

Mum Shocked To Find Drugs In Her Toddler's Fast Food Fries
A mum has been left outraged after allegedly discovering marijuana in her toddler's french fries from a major fast food chain.
Dezeray Risner says her 4-year-old daughter complained that her fries from Wendy's 'tasted funny'.
Upon closer inspection, the mum of two noticed what she believed to be weed sprinkled over the fries and half a blunt.
(Image: Facebook)
Dezeray took to social media to share her horror online.
Police officers failed to discover any weed on the premises of Wendy's, but two employees confessed to smoking it occasionally.
Wendy's have released the following statement,
"In response to Ms. Thompson's Facebook Post, please know all of our customers as well as the quality and integrity of our food are a top priority at Wendy's and we are taking this very seriously. We are currently conducting a thorough internal investigation and the Human Resource and Legal departments are both fully cooperating with police in their investigation. We will get to the bottom of this issue as soon as possible. It is as important to us as it is to the community."
We're just pleased the toddler didn't eat the whole lot!

Standing at the top of Chicken Gate Rock on Mount Tibrogargan. This is where many will turn back and head back to their cars. The climb is easy until this part of the mountain, from here up it is a mix of rock climbing with good holds and clambering using all 4 limbs. From here you can see the highest mountain in the Glass house mountain range, Mount Beerwah, just to the right of Beerwah is Mount Coonowrin. Mount Coonowrin is the most difficult to summit on the range and climbing has been banned on it since 1999 due to concerns about the stability of the rock.
There are no kangaroos in Austria. We're talking about Australia, the world's smallest continent. That being cleared up, let's dive right in! Australia is a sovereign state under the Commonwealth of Nations, which is in turn overseen by Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God, Queen of Australia and Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth. The continent was first sighted and charted by the Dutch in 1606. Captain James Cook of Britain came along in the next century to claim it for Britain and name it "New South Wales." Shortly thereafter it was declared to be a penal colony full of nothing but criminals and convicts, giving it the crap reputation you may have heard at your last cocktail party. This rumor ignores 40,000 years of pre-European human history, especially the Aboriginal concept of Dreamtime, an interesting explanation of physical and spiritual reality. The two biggest cities in Australia are Sydney and Melbourne. Sydney is more for business, Melbourne for arts. But that's painting in very broad strokes.

It can be jarring to realize that your aging parent might be having difficulty keeping up with his or her personal finances. This can seem especially daunting if you don't live in the same part of the country as your parent.
But don't despair. You can line up all sorts of practical help for your mom or dad, whether you live close by or far away. Consider these tips.
1. Go see for yourself. Visit your parent in person and get a sense of how the household is being managed. Be mentally prepared to talk about money, no matter how hard that may be for members of your family. You might be able to broach the subject by sharing a money-related story of your own or a story about one of your friend's parents.
2. Be alert for red flags. Ask for your parent's permission and assistance to examine his or her checkbook, bank statements, credit-card statements and canceled checks. Look for inappropriate or duplicate payments; failure to keep track of deposits and expenditures; numerous transfers from savings to checking; numerous payments to home-shopping networks, sweepstakes or other contests; unusually large charitable donations or payments to a person unknown to you; evidence of high credit-card debt; disconnect notices from utilities, and menacing correspondence from collection agents.
3. Recognize an emergency when you see one. If it's obvious that your parent simply cannot cover his or her expenses, start the process of tapping into government programs for older Americans on low or fixed incomes. To find out what kind of federal and state support might exist for your parent, fill out the confidential questionnaire at BenefitsCheckup.org (http://www.benefitscheckup.org/).
4. Remember the house. If your parent owns a home, he or she could sell it, move into more modest accommodations and make up to $250,000 in profit, or double that amount if married, without owing any capital gains taxes. Or, if your parent is 62 or older, he or she could get a reverse mortgage. Such loans allow homeowners to convert home equity into cash without having to move or assume extra debt. To learn more, visit http://www.aarp.org/revmort.
5. Find a reputable financial planner. You and your parent can attain real peace of mind by putting a smart financial plan in place for the years to come. You can accomplish this by hiring a fee-only financial planner through the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (http://www.napfa.org/) or the Garrett Planning Network (http://www.garrettplanningnetwork.com/). (Fee-only planners do not make commissions by selling you certain financial products.) Planners with the Garrett Planning Network charge an hourly rate of $150 to $300 on an as-needed basis.
6. Get key financial documents in order. Your parent's financial planner can serve as a quarterback to help get these documents drawn up: a durable power of attorney, which would allow your parent to appoint a trustworthy person to help manage his or her finances; a durable power of attorney for health care (also known as a health-care proxy); a living will, and a will. The planner can direct your parent to an attorney who specializes in such matters if needed.
7. Hire a daily money manager. Different from long-range financial planning, daily money management involves consistent help with routine tasks, such as paying bills, keeping the checkbook balanced, establishing a budget and organizing financial and insurance records. Daily money managers generally charge $25 to $75 an hour, and many of their clients require only a few hours of help each month. To find one in your parent's area, visit the Web site of the American Association of Daily Money Managers (http://www.aadmm.com/).
8. Look into the "representative payee" alternative. If your parent receives income from Social Security and is having difficulty managing that income, he or she can ask the Social Security Administration to appoint a representative payee to receive the monthly checks and use the money to pay his or her living expenses. This individual could be you or your parent's daily money manager. Call (800) 772-1213 or visit http://www.socialsecurity.gov/payee/ for details.
9. View a guardian as a last resort. Courts appoint guardians to decide financial or personal matters for people who are unable to care for themselves. Recognize that a guardianship would deprive your parent of the right to make his or her own decisions.
10. Know where else to turn. You can track down many more services and resources for your parent through the Eldercare Locator, a nationwide assistance directory provided through the U.S. Administration on Aging. Call (800) 677-1116 or visit http://www.eldercare.gov/.

Wall Street closed out the year with a surge in the final trading session, betting on a last-minute resolution of the so-called fiscal cliff.
The market may have jumped the gun, but investors' hopefulness fit the pattern of 2012: It was a year of solid stock price gains worldwide, as various predictions of Armageddon proved premature, at best.
That has reinforced many market pros' conventional cautious optimism as the new year begins. Bears can still find plenty to be dour about, but the bulls have called it right in three of the last four years since the 2008 financial-system crash.
On Monday, the Dow Jones industrial average jumped 166 points, or 1.3%, to end the year at 13,104. Stocks rallied late in the session as rumors spread that Congress would approve a deal to limit the tax increases and spending cuts otherwise set to kick in Tuesday.

CRESTVIEW � When local arts organizations extol the virtues of visual and performing arts in the community, it's easy to dismiss it as culture-vultures tooting their horns. However, when the Okaloosa County Economic Development Council praised the arts community's efforts to enhance the region's cultural life, community leaders took notice.
CRESTVIEW � When local arts organizations extol the virtues of visual and performing arts in the community, it's easy to dismiss it as culture-vultures tooting their horns. However, when the Okaloosa County Economic Development Council praised the arts community's efforts to enhance the region's cultural life, community leaders took notice.
The Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce�s 2012 establishment of an Arts and Culture Committee, along with increasing outlets of creative expression, has ensured north county residents have cultural influence, which can mean improved quality of life.
During a Florida League of Cities workshop last year, Arts and Culture Committee Chairperson Rae Schwartz and former Crestview City Councilman Charles Baugh learned that businesses seeking a location or to relocate look at the community�s livability, which includes shopping, schools, sports and the arts.
Since its formation, the committee has worked to elevate the arts� visibility, including having a presence at festivals and other community gatherings. It has welcomed local arts and cultural organizations into its fold, and is finalizing plans to have regional artists exhibit at monthly chamber of commerce breakfasts, generally attended by 200 or more business community leaders.
The community arts center
Through its outreach to the arts community, including offering free exhibition space for artworks, the Crestview Public Library has evolved into the community's de facto arts center. Bi-monthly rotating exhibits on the walls and in lobby display cases include local artists� works and collections including vintage film posters and World War II artifacts from the Baker Block Museum.
The Music at the Library performance series presents local musicians, while monthly music and poetry jams allow fans to exercise their artistic passions. Regular creative events include children�s crafting classes. Manga art shows allow teens to express their creativity in the popular genre of Japanese comic book graphic art.
Nurturing young artists
Local schools fulfill a vital role in identifying kids� inherent creative gifts and nurturing these skills. From elementary through high school, instruction in visual and performing arts broadens young minds and, educators say, sharpens their skills in subjects including mathematics and science.
Northwood Elementary School's recent conversion to an arts and sciences academy is a prime example. Its programs will prepare young artists for extended instruction at Davidson and Shoal River Middle Schools, from which they funnel to Crestview High School's state and nationally recognized choral and instrumental music, dramatic arts and visual arts programs.
Spring and fall theatrical productions and concerts by the 130-voice chorus and nearly 300-piece Big Red Machine band demonstrate area students� performing arts capabilities. The visual arts department's annual spring art show at Crestview High School fills the school library for a week. The school's culinary arts program caters the opening reception.
A performance place
Gigi Allen, whose husband Bob was, at the time, a Crestview City Councilman, formed the Friends of the Arts under the less fancy name of simply �the piano committee.� It would find and procure, at no expense to Crestview taxpayers, a grand piano for Warriors Hall, the auditorium in the then newly acquired Whitehurst Municipal Building.
The piano committee shifted gears, and established a fund to maintain the instrument, still at no cost to taxpayers. The committee chose as its new moniker the Friends of the Arts, indicative of its broad scope of artistic interests, including the addition of a theatrical chair. The Friends� mission has expanded beyond the piano to include enhancing the hall. Goals include securing funding for theatrical lighting and constructing a backstage area with dressing and green rooms.

WORCESTER, Mass.—Junior running back Al Georgio (West Greenwich, R.I.)erupted for 238 yards of offense and had a hand in three touchdowns to aid the Norwich University football team to a 31-14 non-conference win against Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) on Saturday afternoon.
The Cadets improve to 1-2 on the season, while the loss drops the Engineers to 1-2.
Georgio, who entered today's game averaging less than two-yards per carry, improved to 7.15 yards per attempt as he traveled 193 yards on 27 carries with a long of 49 yards and two touchdowns. He also added four receptions, including a six-yard touchdown reception, for 45 yards.
Junior quarterback Keyen Foley (Hemet, Calif.) ran for 150 yards and a touchdown and threw for 133 yards on 12 completions in 20 attempts.
As a team, Norwich totaled a season-high 507 yards of offense. The Cadets held possession for 27:25, including 10:43 in the fourth quarter, while the Cadets defense held WPI to just 22:35 of possession.
Norwich opened scoring on their second drive of the game on an 11-yard run by Georgio. Freshman Wesley Medeiros (Gilford, N.H.) converted his first point-after attempt to give the Cadets the 7-0 advantage with 6:55 to play in the first quarter. The team used nine plays to travel 59 yards to set up Georgio for the scoring play, and the drive was highlighted by a fumble on third-down by Georgio that was recovered by teammate Peter Gill (Nashua, N.H.) to give the Cadets a first down.
After a scoreless second quarter, Norwich extended their lead to 10-0 on a successful 22-yard field goal by Medeiros on the team's first drive of the third quarter.
On WPI's next drive, the Engineers traveled 27 yards before Norwich's Dane Pallotto(Westbrook, Conn.) intercepted a pass and returned it for 14 yards to the Norwich 43 yard line. An illegal blocking penaly set the Cadets 10-yards back to their own 33 yard line, but the Cadets prevailed to post four first-downs and set Foley up for the six-yard touchdown run. Medeiros again converted the point-after attempt as Norwich opened a 17-point gap with 2:43 to play.
Both teams exchanged touchdowns in the fourth quarter. WPI netted their first score seven seconds into the frame as Jacob Grills completed a 23-yard pass to Ehab Hamdan. The Cadets scored on their next drive as the team used 11 plays to travel 77 yards to set up Foley for the four-yard pass to Georgio with 8:41 left on the clock.
The Engineers reclaimed possession at the 20-yard line following a touchback on the punt, and the WPI offense used five plays to travel 80 yards, culminating in a 25-yard touchdown pass from Grills to Hamdan. Norwich led 24-14 with 1:38 to play.
Norwich's next drive was scoreless and led to a 50-yard punt by junior Drew Banuskevich (Peterborough, N.H.). After a four-yard run by WPI, the Engineers attempted a pass on their second play of the drive that was intercepted by Norwich's Dominique Davis (Kissimmee, Fla.) on WPI's 38-yard line.
With the momentum continuing in their favor, the Cadets used a five-yard run by Sam Chaves (Alfred, Maine) to set up Georgio for a 33-yard run and his third touchdown of the afternoon.
Medeiros finished the afternoon 4-4 on point-after attempts and 1-2 on field goal attempts. Freshman Trystan Colaire (Pickering, Ontario) returned three punts for 42 yards and returned two kickoffs for 40 yards. He also added 34 receiving yards, including a long of 26, en route to 116 all-purpose yards.
The Norwich defense held WPI to 295 total offensive yards and was responsible for three interceptions on the afternoon. Jimmy Labell (Stanhope, N.J.) led the unit with six tackles, while Matt LeFevre (Milford, N.J.), Davis, Nick Delicata (Medford Lakes, N.J.) and Addison Nye (Hooksett, N.H.) all added five tackles apiece. Delicata and Kyle Funesti (Morris Plains, N.J.) recorded tackles for loss.
Eric Lacroix led the WPI defense with 15 tackles and a forced fumble. Jake Brown recorded nine tackles and recovered a fumble, while Peter Salem recorded the Engineers' lone sack.
Norwich University returns to action on Saturday, October 4 when it hosts Becker College in Eastern Collegiate Football Conference action at 1:30 p.m. as part of the University's Homecoming weekend.

Unique hobby turns into colorful business
Ionia resident Jared Bennett said he began making chain mail as a way to further protect himself while playing paintball. Little did he know the hobby would develop into wearable artwork.
"My wife told me 'you can't make any more armor unless you sell it' because of the cost of making it," said Bennett.
The pair married in 2009 with Bennett wearing a full chain mail shirt that took 200 hours to fashion out of stainless steel rings. In addition, he created an aluminum breastplate for his son's Halloween costume.
He said he began learning from sites on the Internet and the craft has become second-nature. He said he learns new weaves attempts to make a variety of items constantly, including coin bags, ornaments, candle holders and even a hacky sack.
He also makes a selection of jewelry using metal rings of varying sizes and colors to create unique and interesting weaves that appeal to all age groups. The ideas, he said, are endless.
"To me, it's calming. It takes all of your concentration to do it," Bennett added. "It's nice to learn something new."
For the past year, Bennett has been attending craft shows throughout the region and also sells items on www.Etsy.com to make some extra money. He uses copper, aluminum, stainless steel and titanium to make his pieces and can make custom items. He said he is even teaching his wife how to make certain weaves.
Bennett said he receives a lot of positive feedback on the jewelry, which he appreciates and keeps him making more.
"To get a compliment on it kind of help you get through the day," he added.

Others mentioned (briefly) are Android, Nokia, Motorola, and LG. Who knew that fanboy music videos would also be used to slander a product.

Pink Color: Sally Hansen "Heart of Stone"
White Color: Konad Special Polish "White"
Star Image: BM 20
Recently my ring finger nail broke, and when I say broke, I mean it broke all the way down to the finger! Grr! But I was starting to grow tired of having longer nails anyway, so I decided to trim them all down and honestly.. I like my nails a lot more this length. I usually keep them longer so I have enough room on my nails to have the freedom to do any nail art design my heart desires. But I really prefer the look of shorter nails, they don't get in the way as much, typing is much easier for example, you can go crazy with your designs without it looking tacky, but it still gives you that polished, chic, put together look to your hands. So I am going to keep them to this length until I need to grow them longer for whatever design is brewing up in my head. Plus, having shorter nails allowed me to play with some of the full sized images on the first set of BM plates which have a reputation for being too small for longer nails.
As for the nail design its self. I LOVE it! It's so very simple (compared to my usual designs anyway) but I find it to look better in one of those less is more kinda ways. It's very understated, but adds a lot of character. I was also admiring this color combo a lot too. I already have an idea of how I want to use this star image again in the future. I am thinking of a dark navy blue or black, with a sheer holographic/duochrome polish on top to give it some depth, then adding the stars in silver. Of course, I am trying to contain myself from wearing darker colors until its a bit colder and the outside world has more of that genuine autumn feeling. I know.. I am putting way too much thought into that lol.
I have some pictures on my phone of some nail designs I've done while my camera was broken, which I will be uploading VERY soon!

Will Michele Bachmann make it to Iowa? Insiders are whispering that the Tea Party darling's financials are grim and she may be out of the race before she makes it to the Iowa caucus in February, even though she has a strong base in the state. Sources tell us say Bachmann's skeletal staff are holding their collective breath until the deadline to disclose her fundraising report on Oct. 15. Meanwhile, we hear a computer vendor has called her campaign headquarters threatening to shut down the power due to an outstanding bill. Sources say she had about $400,000 at the beginning of September, but also stacks of bills. "She does not like to ask for money. She should have been focusing on big donors about three months ago," a source said. "She's only cultivated low dollar donors with direct mailings and that's hurt her." But at a rally in Virginia yesterday, Bachmann declared that she does not intend to back out of the race. "We intend to be the comeback kid in this race," she said. Her rep said, "None of that is true."
