That's why we need Tort reform:
On Jan. 22, a Kentucky woman filed a lawsuit against the surgeon who performed her hysterectomy after discovering that he branded the initials ±UKe on her uterus. Dr. James M. Guiler claims the marking helps keep him oriented while operating and that ±UKe is ±honorablee because it represents his alma mater -- the University of Kentucky. Last week nine other women, including a nurse who used to work for Guiler, asked to join the lawsuit claiming they too had similar branding...

Obama Discloses Rezko Contributions
Nick Timiraos reports on the presidential race.
Antoin Rezko, a former Obama fundraiser who is on trial facing extortion charges, helped raise up to $250,000 for the Illinois senator’s past political campaigns, nearly $90,000 more than the Obama campaign previously acknowledged.

Hm. Business as usual today.
But they're learning to spell bigger words, and that's encouraging.
Barndog,
Are you really a river guide?
Brought up for your reading enjoyment from the last strangled in its cradle thread:
Staff gets fired but doctors keep their jobs... for the same offense.
You know, it really sucks when the higher status people are punished less severely for the same offense. This is PRECISELY the opposite of how it should go.
Higher status usually means greater responsiblity, which implies more severe punishment for breaching that responsiblity.
So, logically, some doctors should LOSE THEIR LICENSES TO PRACTICE MEDICINE for this gross breach of professional ethics.
The problem is high status individuals in this society do not pay for their high status. It's become an entitlement, and one that is absolutely at odds with any pretense of meritocracy, where as your merit purchases you more status, it also raises the stakes if you breach trust.
Unfortunately, we've seen this pattern repeated in the military, where officers should have been boiled alive for Abu Ghraib offenses but were allowed to quietly retire while enlisted were dishonorably discharged.
wouldnt reeally far awar - and small in the pic- galaxies be red shifter?
All the Hubble photographs are artificially colored, so U can't really tell from the photograph.
Anyhoo, the red shift doesn't show distance, it shows whether somethings moving toward you or away from you. It shows speed.
And so the minister said, God damn America.
Who hasn't ?
Christ, my brother Tim, who is a retired U.S. Marine, has said lots and lots worse than that about America, and the entire human race.
My wife asked Timmy when she first met him, "What was the best part about being in the Marines?"
Timmy said: "There was no best part."
The Air Force's latest new slogan (they change slogans as often as they
wet their pants) is Above All, which appearently came from a currently
popular Christian Rock song. The last one was "Airpower!" which is at
least an acceptable military term relevant to the Air Force. Somewhere
earlier was
"Aim High" (which is just incorrect -- "aiming high" is an error like failing to correct your dope for wind). We are currently looking for a list of all previous Air Force slogans.
Think of the sound of a train.
But they're learning to spell bigger words, and that's encouraging.
Silleigh
They've moved up to four letters. Still only one syllable, though...

Why?
doan U have anything better to do?
How about "May the Air Force be with you" as a slogan?
They actually went with that for a while back in the late 70's...
"What was the best part about being in the Marines?"
Like your brother - there is no best part.
The only worthwhile part is the lifetime relationships with your brother/sister Marines.

Is that you Obama?
Rev Wright was a Marine. He could probably use some sandbags.
-
We noted that we met some of the best people we will ever meet, but also some of the worst. The decision to go into the military seems always irrational and uninformed and the experience is very different from any impression you can get outside, so at times we doubt there can be an intelligent and totally willful enlistment. But then we're for a sort of universal national service (with non-combatant options of course) as a nationwide deal part of paying for college or career schools.

Fire the nurses!!!!!
I enjoyed the rappelling, and the shooting of the howitzer.
Those were fun, but unfortunately after I got out of ROTC advanced training, the shooting of the howitzer part was waaay below my pay grade once I was in an artillery unit where I might have had the opportunity.
I did enjoy supervising my commo sites high atop lofty ridges that I traveled to in my HMMWV, though.

That would be correct.
Timothy does not disrespect the Corps. He is very proud of being in it. But that doesn't mean he feels obligated to say he loved every second of it.
And this is what the minister was talking about. There are aspects of this country -- and people from this country -- that I deeply love and respect, but that doesn't mean I must like all of it. How the fuck can I love the Trail of Tears !!!
It's just stoopid shit for dumb asses who don't want to think.

Ahh yes. The Hubble Deep Field is eye opening to say the least.
Well the ones with the optical artifacts are stars for sure, but yeah its unclear if some of the other objects are stars or elliptical galaxies.
the more Marines you know, the more simularities you'll find.
A recruiting poster targeting teh chix has a girl sitting in a crowd at some kind of instructional period and the caption says that this is a great way to stand out. This invariably provokes one of two responses: one, yeah, everybody wearing the same clothes and being trained not to stand out is a real great way to stand out. And two: it is actually true that there are a lot of girls who go into the marines to be like the only girl for twenty-five square miles and pretend they're prettier than they are. There is a horrible black book like you might find under a brick in an undercellar of the Vatican holding unspoken and unspeakable reasons to join the military. In the sunlight everyone says they love their country, their daddy did it, and IX/XI; in the doorless toilet stalls they say they got caught with a bag of hash, some judge gave them a choice and the marines mean instant credibility.

ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- A tornado ripped through downtown Atlanta on Friday night, rippling the roof of the Georgia Dome during a college basketball game, shattering windows and ripping roofs from buildings before tearing into several residential neighborhoods.
The street outside CNN Center is covered in glass. Inside, water poured through damage in the ceiling.
2 of 3 Officials at two Atlanta hospitals said they'd treated at least 15 people for injuries -- two of them firefighters.
Hospital officials called one of the injuries "life threatening" but said most were superficial cuts and bruises.
The National Weather Service had issued a tornado warning for the area, in effect until 10 p.m. The storm came through at about 9:45 p.m.
Inside CNN Center, water poured through damage in the ceiling into the building's atrium. Glass shattered, and parts of the building filled with dust.

Robocop two was okay, tree was a disaster. The TV series had some good moments, but I didn't watch all of them. One thing they did on the TV series is give him nonviolent methods to catch the bad guys. I thought that was a good idea.

Good Night everyone!
Within seconds of Felicia shutting that door, so began her reenactment of the battle of Tora Bora. Had al-Qaeda been in our toilet that day, they would have happily handed over bin Laden and become Mormons. That day Felicia's cinnamon ring withstood an egress of wheat grass juice at a velocity I can't begin to comprehend.
As quickly as it began, it stopped. But it was a mere pause, followed by a "cough". Then the blitzkrieg continued. I can only speculate, but I think the cough was a diversionary tactic to save what little grace she didn't already violently shit out.

Hussein Obama = Farrakhan+Malcolm X, in flaming drag
Here are some other past actions and accusations that Barack will have to face before the campaign is over. Better to face them now rather than later so that there will be no surprises and he will be able to run as strong a campaign as possible, now and against McCain:
Barack In The Day
"He was just 35 when in 1996 he won his first bid for political office. Even many of his staunchest supporters, such as Black, still resent the strong-arm tactics Obama employed to win his seat in the Illinois Legislature.
Obama hired fellow Harvard Law alum and election law expert Thomas Johnson to challenge the nominating petitions of four other candidates, including the popular incumbent, Alice Palmer, a liberal activist who had held the seat for several years, according to an April 2007 Chicago Tribune report.
Obama found enough flaws in the petition sheets—to appear on the ballot, candidates needed 757 signatures from registered voters living within the district—to knock off all the other Democratic contenders. He won the seat unopposed."
Lubyanka = flaming idiot asshole
good ol McCain a man of the people someone you would just love to have a beer with, a friendly guy, a man of the people........ just like the giggling idiot we already have in the white house.
so is Obama too muslim or too christian?
The search for anyone who might be trapped in an apartment building that collapsed when a tornado swept through downtown Atlanta Friday evening could last until Sunday, Atlanta Fire Chief Kelvin Cochran said early Saturday.
The Fulton Cotton Mill Lofts, just east of downtown Atlanta, collapsed in a "pancake fashion," Cochran said.
Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin said emergency officials have determined that it was a tornado that ripped through the heart of her city, damaging the roof of the Georgia Dome during a college basketball game, shattering windows and tearing roofs from buildings before continuing into several residential neighborhoods.
The building that collapsed was the Fulton cotton mills lofts. They consist of apts. of condos and rental units.
Uh-oh: The killer rabbits are about to eat the General Store.
Hussein Obama's strange claim: he was somehow unaware of his pastor's ultra-radical anti-American views--for 20 years...
could Hussein be just another rad-lib liar?
Now, don't get all old-school on me. If you're gonna go bologna, you might as well go german.
So the pastor at Obama's church is not politically correct enough for conservative media. He needs to totally agree with everything that shrub has done. Even though what he did was all wrong.
I think Obamas pastor is right.
Rad-Lib?
Miss Lubyanka Thing is waving a wang-wang from the days long gone by. Grow a calendar!
"rad-lib"?
Wow. How very ... retro of you, Loonywanka. Did you find some Bircher pamphlets while you were rooting through your Dad's sock drawer?
repigs:
Great minds, and all that.
Oh Miss Missy Lubyanka, I think Mr. McCain might be Soft On Communism. He was making all kissy butt with the Vietnamese, who might still be allied with Red China.
Mr. Professor Fate man owes me a soda.
Hussein Obama Campaign: a slow sink into the Allegheny River, weighed down by the albatross of the Right Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama's mentor and spiritual advisor...
Eeeeeeeek!!!
a booby!!!
Billary campaign: Rev. Jeremiah Wright on every billboard and milk carton!!!
Did everbody read the interesting article on Barack's State Senate Days that I quoted?
"Obamagasmics Panicked: Silver-Tongued Panderer Torpedoed By Close Affiliation With Radical Anti-American Pastor Of 20 Years.."
repigs out:
Yeah, but how you gonna collect?
As for the article, I just scanned about a third of it. I'll bookmark it for tomorrow, though, 'cause right now I'm having too much fun watching the killer rabbits.
Just out of curiousity, Loonywanka, are you picking up these headlines from the fillings in those back molars?
If so, you need to start using a heavier grade of tin-foil in your hat.

The other day I linked to a Gail Collins OpEd in the NYT and several people came back and said (basically) "Oh, she's just a third-tier wannabe MoDo."
To me, there's quite a bit less of the "Black Widow dispatching her mate" I find in MoDo. Take this paragraph:
The country that elected George Bush — sort of — because he seemed like he’d be more fun to have a beer with than Al Gore or John Kerry is really getting its comeuppance. Our credit markets are foundering, and all we’ve got is a guy who looks like he’s ready to kick back and start the weekend.

Judging from VietNam and Watergate, the shelf life of any lesson learned is less than a decade.
We gladly feast on those who would subdue us.
Down to 3? Bet you can hear an echo.
And prof, you're right about that. This country really learned from Vietnam, didn't it? I listened to the Winter Soldiers today, and a number of them mentioned how sad this was. They had to learn the lesson all over again.

Learn from Vietnam? First, we had to sit thru decades of Conservative Revisionist History that made the war the fault of the people who never wanted to wage it. When that double-think was firmly bonded to the national psyche, we had to take every thing aspirational the Boomers tried to reach for and failed to grasp onto and make the aspiration itself seem shameful. It's been a long, sad slog into Conservatard Dystopia.

Good evening, Sarah D; how's by you?
hey peeps. briefly read thru comments on obama's pastor troubles on here. i think its a big deal - check that, i don't - but i think that it will play out on fox and shit for a long time
The Pastor is not Obama. QED. Who "put this out there" just now?
Hi, Sarah. What's up?
i did. and it says obama ('S) pastor. unless you were insinuating that i thought obama=his pastor and his shit. not at all
No, no, no -- It's my fault I think Mark Penn is devious enough to try some too-clever-by-half gambit to take the focus off of G. Ferraro and put it back on Obama -- and I'll own that suspicion.
anyone see day zero?
Now, now, plantsman, just because Hillary was cozying up to Rupert a few months ago, that doesn't mean anything, right?
Now we've got two Johns on the tv: John Hoyt and John "Poor Man's Wayne" Agar.
hey, planstsman, prof. Just cruising by before heading to bed. How's everyone?
"Course Not! And just because the campaign has tried using race to diminish Obama numerous times before does not mean they're doing it now.
G F is kind of a weird blessing for obama i think, since she has come out like: "you should apologize to me." most peeps are insulted by that, i believe. HC's caution about it also shows her big weakness: BO outright slammed anyone who thought he was ambivalent on his pastor's words

Who "put this out there" just now?
plantsman
Wright has been 'out there' for some time. Remember him being 'uninvited' to Obama's big preznitial kickoff last January? Wingnuts have gone on about him from time to time, Faux did that interview with him a year ago, but with a few exceptions corporate media played him light or ignored him completely. NYT did a Obama 'faith' profile last April and covered Wright, but that's print not video, so no TV.
Then recently ABC got the video/dvds from the church and played some Thursday, and Faux got some and played them after that. IIRC, the church sells the sermons, and Obama listened to/watched them while at Harvard because he said so in his book. Anyone who read the book should know the church had the goods.
Revise the conspiracies as needed.
I just thought 'they' would wait until after he got the nod before 'they' started dragging him down. Premature ejaculation.

Premature emasculation?

The Repigs are playing us like Punch and Judy. First, build up Clinton into the Wicked Witch of the West and stir up millions of Obama supporters to declare that they will never vote for her, and then unleash the dogs on Obama. We have already been pwned.

If Bill Clinton could survive the bimbo eruptions during his first campaign for the White House, Barack can survive this. We must not allow the Repigs to keep us at each other's throats. Who wins when Democrats fight Democrats? We are better than the Repig Party of Hating.
The GOP has a very limited playbook of "nuclear" options and they've gone to the same well with them over and over, campaign after campaign.
We all know that repeating the same stimulus provokes less and less of a response over time.
Be watchful, but worry not.
we all know Obama's response, but it's gonna be Rush, O'Reilly, Savage, and Hannity all over his ass.
but it's gonna be Rush, O'Reilly, Savage, and Hannity all over his ass.
Indeed. And we also know that however big their audiences are, they are in significant decline and have been for years.
When Limpdick, Hannity and Bloody Bill tell you to vote for Hillary you might want to rethink your position...
do you think he is fucked over this?
It will depend on how he handles it, and he has not handled it well so far, imo. He's backed himself into a corner about what and when did he know it, and his story stinks to this camper. He has been very careful when he 'answers' specific questions about it and does the politician switchoff when answering.
Maybe he can get out of it somehow, but it's late to be learning. Keeping Wright attached in any way was very stupid, there should have been no invitation to have to uninvite, etc. IF one is running for preznit.
Obama obviously is very reluctant to kissoff Wright, and tries to rehabilitate him every appearance, the 'former Marine, respected preacher' and so forth. If he is becoming President then each day carries him away from what his life has been like, and Obama wants to have his past and leave it too. He could fuck it up even more or wake up, seems to me. Obama's chickens have come home to roost.

When the Repigs really start to campaign, they distort and LIE. The media often calls them on it, but the Repigs have spent years teaching their followers to believe the Repig Party, not their own eyes. It will get much worse, whoever the nominee is.
It's March 15th. This is only the beginning. There will be blood.

How do you propose we do that? I might suggest that a good strategy would be to unite against the common enemy, instead of fighting amongst ourselves. What do you think?

No big deal, nobody who can stand watching these guys for more than a couple minutes would ever vote democratic in the first place.

The GOP has for a very long time promoted style over substance; e.g. flag lapel pins over actual patriotism. This is their Achilles Heel.

Why be hostile to me, then? I was only reflecting sadly that as ugly as things are now, the Repig Lying Machine has barely got started, and the phenomenon of Democrats vowing to never vote for other Democrats is the work of Satan Jr, Mr. Karl Rove. And why does it say HULK SMASH at the top?

Precisely what the folks who "put this out there" want -- demoralized Democrats, to give the GOP a chance to do more damage.
BTW, this was in Flagler County -- highest unemployment rate in the state, and a county whose economy has essentially been based on growth. I got the impression it was kind of a Dem hangout, but at any rate everyone in there HATES WPE. They were mocking his statements about the economy getting better in the fall "when he's leaving office."
I'm in a bar about once a year, so I seldom hear people who are not political obsessives talk about stuff. It was pretty fun.

Venturing out on multiple bus rides is less fun in the driving rain, so I miss what the stores are decorated for. Public transit usage is at a 50-year high, MSNBC said yesterday.

A closer look at the invisible hand of the free market.
Invoking a little-used provision added to the Federal Reserve Act in 1932, at the height of the Great Depression, the US central bank agreed to allow the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to insure an infusion of credit to Bear Stearns by JP Morgan Chase. Under the terms of the “secured loan facility,” to extend for up to 28 days, the risk of a default by Bear Stearns will be borne by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, not JP Morgan Chase. The latter will serve essentially as a conduit for the cash provided by the US central bank.
Carl Lantz, a strategist at Credit Suisse, said the intervention by the New York Fed and JP Morgan showed that Bear “didn’t have enough money to turn the light on this morning.”
With the de facto collapse of Bear Stearns, however, the housing and credit market collapse has claimed one of the titans of Wall Street. Founded in 1923 and employing some 15,500 people worldwide, Bear Stearns was one of the “big five” Wall Street investment banks. In 2005-2007, Bear Stearns was recognized as the “Most Admired” securities firm in Fortune magazine’s “America’s Most Admired Companies” survey.
Indicative of the broader reverberations from the Bear Stearns collapse, the share price of Ambac Financial Group, the world’s second-largest bond insurer, fell 93 percent, on widespread fears that the company will not have sufficient capital to meet claims from its creditors.
The US dollar hit new lows against the euro and other currencies.
The immediate fear motivating the Federal Reserve, the Treasury Department and Wall Street banks was the danger that an uncontrolled collapse of Bear Stearns would have a domino effect on already turbulent financial markets. Were Bear Stearns forced to sell off assets at fire-sale prices to raise cash needed to meet creditors’ demands, the value of untold billions in assets held by other financial institutions would drop, leading to more margin calls from creditors, further institutional collapses, more panic selling of debt and securities—a vicious spiral to the bottom with the potential of a breakdown in the entire capitalist financial system.
Temps are such much of the year around here that the bus windows fog-up something awful, and you can't see a danged thing, anyway.

I haven't cared much about Christmas for a long time, so I don't get terribly nostalgic for my mom around then, but Easter is a different story. As long as she lived, she made me an Easter basket because I loved getting one so much. Into my late 30s, even.
It was really sweet. Makes me miss her.
Ask.com did have it. John Davis of West Virginia secured the 1924 nomination for the Democrats on the 103rd ballot.
Winfield Scott was second for the Whigs securing their nomination in 1852 on the 53rd ballot.
Third place goes to James Garfield in 1880 on the 36th ballot.
Up until 1932 Democrats had to have 2/3 majority of the delegates to secure a nomination.
All nominations since 1952 have been obtained on the first ballot for both major parties.

Used the crimini 'shrooms while they were still prime, though!
Gimlet, dumping those worthless goods onto the market is more the point, it's the same thing Carlyle is facing. They are holding 'vehicles' full of subprime mortgages, and don't want to face devaluing them to their actual worth. it's the money system itself in danger.

Once again demonstrating the utter boneheadedness of the Free Market™ ideologues.

Wiki:
Common mushrooms are fairly rich in vitamins and minerals. The mushroom contains high amounts of vitamin B group, sodium, potassium and phosphorus.[7] Raw mushrooms are naturally cholesterol and fat free. The mushrooms also have very low energy levels — five medium-sized common mushrooms added together only have 20 calories.
Common mushrooms have a unique flavor that can be matched by few other mushrooms. No specific flavor can be defined; most people describe the mushroom as "plain", but other people say that the common mushroom tastes slightly sweet or "meaty".

It looks more complicated than that.
We are told subprime mortgages are a small amount of the money out there. It looks like most transactions were pumped up in price to get the upfront fees and "points".
If possible new loans are margined or leveraged based on a formula of reserve funds or assets and the value of the assets fall the rules won't let them loan any new money and they must liquidate at firesale prices to have the necessary reserve funds.
If they can hold on long enough inflation via the impact of gas prices on everthing will help them catch up.
Even that isn't the whole story.

My guess is that the market will get flooded with what were referred to as junk bonds during the Reagan era. They'll be bartered off between the big banking houses at pennies on the dollar. Some will float back up to the surface, others will sink like stones. The trick is to buy enough different kinds of paper so that the risers will offset the sinkers.

For example, those who feel their civil rights have been violated can seek justice and telecoms who feel they have complied with the law, a judge can review the classified evidence and decide. This means to me that the Constitution and civil rights are protected and telecoms who are asked under pressure to assist in an emergency can know that classified evidence will be seen by a judge... The bill provides telecom companies a way to present their defense in secure proceedings in a district court without the administration using state secrets to block the defense. A company simply doing its duty following the law, this bill ensures they they will not be punished
