Party tells McCain to Increase Attacks on Obama

Republicans hang on to negativity as a viable means of winning an election. This is truly pathetic.

clipped from www.guardian.co.uk Republicans are urging John McCain to adopt more aggressive tactics against Barack Obama amid fears that the White House is slipping away from them. Although McCain has been pumping out negative ads throughout August and September, Republican state leaders and officials want to see him becoming even more personal, exploiting Obama's links with figures he knew in Chicago. These include: William Ayers, a former member of Weather Underground, a group involved in a 1970s bombing campaign in the US; the Rev Jeremiah Wright, his controversial former pastor; and Tony Rezko, the land developer convicted of fraud and bribery earlier this year who had contributed to his campaign funds.

McCain sags in FL; Repub leaders meet

Aggregate polls suggest FL trending toward Obama.

clipped from www.truthdig.com Florida Republicans Hold Secret Meeting RealClearPolitics’ aggregate polling data show Florida trending Obama’s way. Florida Republican leaders hastily convened a top secret meeting this week to grapple with Sen. John McCain’s sagging performance in this must-win state. Their fears were confirmed Wednesday when four new polls showed Sen. Barack Obama leading, a reversal from just a few weeks ago when McCain was opening up an advantage. The polls come amid a cascade of bad news about the economy, an issue that McCain has struggled with in recent days.

Palin cites Civil War General on Afghanistan

How to cure your boils naturally

How to Cure Your Boils Naturally

Author: Kathy Love

Boils are not a pleasant topic, but it is something that most of us will experience at some point in our lives. This article will show how you can cure your boils naturally by using inexpensive natural remedies.

What is a boil? Another name used to describe a boil is a skin abscess, but basically it's just an infection deep in the skin. I like to describe a boil as being a really big zit because that's what it looks like. Below are several different types of boils:

Cystic acne -- An abscess that forms when the oil ducts become infected or clogged. This type of boil is found mostly on the face and primarily effects teenagers.

Furuncle or carbuncle -- An abscess of the skin caused by Staphylococcus aureus. This type of boil may cause a fever or chills.

Pilonidal cyst -- This abscess is usually found in the crease of the buttocks. People who sit a lot or travel over long distances, like a truck driver, are more prone to getting this kind of boil.

Hidradenitis suppurativa -- This is when you have multiple boils that form in the arm pits and groin area and are associated with the sweat glands.

Why do we get boils? The most common cause is believed to be clogged sweat glands or hair follicles that become infected. It is also possible for a scratch or any other break in the skin to become infected and turn into a boil. Believe it or not, an ingrown hair can cause a boil. People with compromised or suppressed immune systems are more likely to get boils. That includes people with diabetes. Medications can also suppress the immune system -- especially cortisone, prednisone, prednisolone and medications used by cancer patients.

How to cure boils naturally? If you have been searching the Internet for information on how to cure boils, you probably found that most Websites recommend that you go to your doctor and be put on antibiotics. I think that's a bit radical when most boils can be effectively cured at home. If, however, after you have tried to cure the boil yourself, but it doesn't work, then go to your doctor immediately. Below are three natural cures you can try:

Turmeric -- Turmeric taken internally can help dissolve and heal boils in as little as three days. It has anti-inflammatory and blood purifying effects on the body. Just take one teaspoon of turmeric powder in warm water three times a day or buy turmeric in capsule form and take at least 450 mg each day. You can also make a paste out of the turmeric powder and place it directly on the boil and cover it with gauze. Be careful as turmeric can stain your skin and your clothes. The stain on your skin will go away in about two weeks.

Tea Tree Oil -- Tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic that is able to help in the healing of all kinds of skin problems. All you have to do is apply one drop of tea tree oil directly on the boil each morning after bathing until it's gone.

Castor Oil -- Put some Castor oil on a cotton ball and place it on the boil. You will need to secure it with gauze or a band-aid. Castor oil will draw the poison right out of the boil and can heal it in as little as two days.

There are other remedies that I did not mention as I felt the three above were the best. Some other remedies are iodine, a paste made out of baking soda or you can take an epson salts bath.

Harris, Bush and Florida Revisited

Secretary of State K Harris; also the co chair of the elect Bush as president for Florida. What a great set up, I mean democracy.

clipped from www.slate.com But there is a pretty basic distinction between what the law requires and what the law merely allows. Even if Harris is right about the law, there is nothing to stop her from authorizing recounts in any county or every county except for her own partisan desire not to. She could have done it all along. She can still do it. Harris and the Bush contingent are misusing people's respect for the law to override their common sense about what the solution here ought to be. But it's not common sense versus the law—it's common sense versus Katherine Harris' discretion.

Sec. of State Katherine Harris' conflict of interest

Recount on HBO, the story of Florida Secretary of State Katherine Harris was a good portrayal of the2000 election controversy between V.P. Gore and George W. Bush campaigns.
P.S. Not surprisingly, she's a Bill Belichick and Patriots fan.

clipped from www.slate.com There are excellent reasons for this recommendation. Following the contentious 2000 recount, e-mails on former Sec. of State Katherine Harris' computer revealed that she had been in contact with Jeb Bush during the recount, contrary to both their claims. Miami Herald reporter Meg Laughlin discovered that e-mail messages sent to Jeb Bush from Harris had been deleted after the recount. Harris then had the operating system of her computer changed, a procedure that erased all its data. "What was odd about what she did," said Mark Seibel, an editor at the Herald, "was that they installed an old operating system—not a new one—which makes you wonder why they did it."

Just Purchased the VitaMix 4500, btter poop

Had to make a smoothie when I got home. Proceeded to have one of the better poops in a while. The organic greens and fruit I used acted as a natural antioxidant. I could actually feel the positive effects on my body almost immedietely. Although an expensive investment, how can you put a price on true health?

Totally Raw

See, I have given thee every herb that yields seed which is on the face of the earth. And every tree whose fruit yields seeds, to you it shall be for food!
—Genesis 1:29

In moving toward a healthier diet, a blender becomes a necessity . Vitamix makes the best one on the market in my opinion. I will be acquiring one in the next few days. Raw food, especially fruits and vegetables is the healthiest diet to be on for many reasons. Blending and juicing is the only practical way to do this.

New Discovery to Predict Colon Cancer

Major New Discovery to Predict Colon Cancer Earlier

An easily overlooked colon abnormality turns out to be likely to turn cancerous. It is more common than had previously been thought.

Generally, doctors search for polyps, abnormal growths that stick out from the lining of the colon. But another type of growth is both more dangerous and harder to see because it is flat and similar in color to healthy tissue.

It takes a trained and vigilant eye to see these growths, and special techniques to remove them.

Colon cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer death in the United States, causing about 52,000 deaths a year. It is one of the few cancers that is totally preventable if precancerous growths are found and removed.

My Recent Grocery Store Experience

My Recent Grocery Store Experience

I
typically don’t go grocery shopping but my living arrangements have
recently changed, and when I was in the grocery store yesterday I was
behind an attractive young woman who was clearly not overweight. I just
about fell over when I saw what she put on the conveyor belt: a loaf of
white bread, two-pound packet of cookies, crackers, poor-quality highly
processed lunch meat and processed American cheese.

There
wasn’t a shred of real food in her entire order. She probably is one of
the multitude that have been successfully brainwashed by the food
industry and doesn’t realize that in a few short years her choices will
slowly but surely steal her health, cause her to age prematurely and
join the two-thirds of the United States that is overweight.

No wonder the colon is clogged.

The Probiotics "Medal of Honor" Goes to... L. Sporogenes

Recently,
Lactobacillus sporogenes was found to produce the beneficial lactic
acid that improves probiotic shelf life and survival issues in your
stomach.*

Unlike other lactobacilli, L. sporogenes
exists as a spore, wrapped in a protective coat. Spores exist like
plant seeds – they can stay alive for years. And when conditions exist
for optimal growth, they open up and become a new plant.

Spygate , Act 2 Emerges

Filming of Rams walk through practice before the Super Bowl by a Patriots video staffer may get Belichick a 1 year suspension . It seems , the Patriots really do stink.

clipped from sports.espn.go.com Flash back to September. After the league made its strange decision to destroy the materials, then refused to say what they contained, several media figures, including me, did this Journalism 101 exercise: Current scandal involves current taping by the Patriots. Are there any former Patriots video officials from New England's Super Bowl runs? That led to a former New England scout and video department official named Matt Walsh, who now lives in Hawaii. Simultaneously, the NFL grapevine was alive with rumors -- caution, rumors -- that the Patriots were guilty not just of taping sidelines during games but rather of much more serious transgressions. The primary rumor, which was reported Saturday by the Boston Herald, was that the Patriots secretly taped the St. Louis Rams' private walk-through before Super Bowl XXXVI, that the Pats knew some of the Rams' plays and formations in advance.

Capitalism's Enemies Within

Wall Street's pay practices perversely encourage extreme risk-taking that can destabilize the economy.

clipped from www.washingtonpost.com Amid the mayhem on world financial markets, it is becoming clear that capitalism's most dangerous enemies are capitalists. No one can have watched the "subprime mortgage" debacle without noticing the absurd contrast between the magnitude of the failure and the lavish rewards heaped on those who presided over it. At Merrill Lynch and Citigroup, large losses on subprime securities cost chief executives their jobs -- and they left with multimillion-dollar pay packages. Stanley O'Neal, the ex-head of Merrill, received an estimated $161 million.

KIffin Signs , Stroud to Hang self

It is was it is. Stroud is a lame hack.

clipped from bucstats.com Monte Agrees In Principle, Stroud To Hang Self In Shower January 18, 2008 Earlier today, I read Rick Stroud's story about Kiffin getting offered less than he was currently making. It's believed the Bucs have offered Kiffin less than what he made last season, leaving the two sides considerably apart. I had half an entry written about how "it's believed" means Stroud had absolutely no sources and was just pulling this out of his gargantuan asshole, but I abandoned it because it started to sound like I was piling on when I really didn't know what Kiffin was offered myself. The Tribune touched on it, but their version of it has far fewer instances of the words "fuckface" and "hack-tacular". I'm not sure which is more satisfying, Kiffin being retained or Stroud being publicly proven wrong again. Isn't it about time to stick him on the monster truck rally or championship bingo beats?

New England Spygate DT Vince Wilfolk gets off Easy with Fine

EyE gouging incident yields Wilfolk only a fine, indicating the NFL's favored position towards the Patriots. Look for the Cheatriots to win the Super Bowl with help from the referees if necessary.

clipped from www.profootballtalk.com WILFORK GOT OFF WAY TOO EASY We're amazed -- amazed -- that Pats defensive tackle Vince Wilfork was fined only $15,000 for treating Giants running back Brandon Jacobs like he'd just said "nyuk, nyuk, nyuk." Wilfork jammed his stubby finger into Jacobs' eye! Sure, Jacobs wasn't hurt.  But the act was still heinous.  If the officials had seen it, he surely would have been ejected.  So why wasn't he suspended? And given that it was Wilfork's third fine of the year for on-field misbehavior, we think that he at least should have been fined far more than $15,000. Finally, a reader has made a great suggestion.  Why not base these fines on a percentage of the player's annual salary?  As it now stands, these penalties affect players of different income levels differently.  The goal, however, should be to create a deterrent effect that is consistent.  The best way to do that is to take away a specific portion of the player's pay.

Murdoch's Way: Buying pols with book deals!

The halls of Washington and their lobbyists...who's representing you?

According to two former F.C.C. officials, Mr. Murdoch’s chief in-house lobbyist at the time, Preston Padden, confronted Mr. Hundt’s chief of staff at a meeting at a coffee shop near the agency’s headquarters. Mr. Hundt (the F.C.C. chariman at the time) would not be able to “get a job as dog-catcher” if the F.C.C. took away a single News Corporation television license, Mr. Padden warned, they said.

clipped from www.nytimes.com Murdoch Reaches Out for Even More In the fall of 2003, a piece of Rupert Murdoch’s sprawling media empire was in jeopardy. Congress was on the verge of limiting any company from owning local television stations that reached more than 35 percent of American homes. Mr. Murdoch’s Fox stations reached nearly 39 percent, meaning he would have to sell some. A strike force of Mr. Murdoch’s lobbyists joined other media companies in working on the issue. The White House backed the industry, and in a late-night meeting just before Thanksgiving, Congressional leaders agreed to raise the limit — to 39 percent. One leader of the Congressional movement to limit ownership was Senator Trent Lott, Republican of Mississippi. But in the end, he, too, agreed to the compromise. It turns out he had a business connection to Mr. Murdoch. Months before, HarperCollins, Mr. Murdoch’s publishing house, had signed a $250,000 book deal to publish Mr. Lott’s memoir, “Herding Cats,” records and interviews show.

Alzheimer's memory loss faster among well-educated

strange...I just thought that the more your read, think & write, the more you shall be excercising your brains!...wasted a lot of time in getting qualified!!!

clipped from www.reuters.com WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Having more years of formal education delays the memory loss linked to Alzheimer's disease, but once the condition begins to take hold, better-educated people decline more rapidly, researchers said on Monday. Their study, published in the journal Neurology, tracked memory loss in a group of elderly people from New York City's Bronx borough before they were diagnosed with Alzheimer's or another form of old-age dementia. Every year of education delayed the accelerated memory decline that precedes dementia by about 2-1/2 months, according to the researchers at Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York. But once this memory loss began, the rate of decline unfolded 4 percent more quickly for each additional year of education, the researchers said. Someone with 16 years of schooling might experience memory decline 50 percent more quickly than another person with just four years education, based on the findings.

Many in US Military: Bush & Cheney Out of Control

Can Business Make Friends with Web 2.0?

Still, there are quite a few, actually thousands of niches
where Web2.0 will integrate nicely. I will show 'you' them in the weeks and months ahead. Meanwhile, trust the process

clipped from www.itbusinessedge.com Maybe the problem is just the opposite - business leaders have seen what happens when Web 2.0 users target their business and they aren’t happy with the results. Thus far, the intersection of business and Web 2.0 generally has not been pretty. Consider StarbucksGossip, a hobbyist site that quickly became the place for Starbucks employees to publicly and anonymously air corporate grievances. And then there was the public relations nightmare AOL faced when blogger Vincent Ferrari recorded his frustrating interactions with an AOL customer service representative while trying to cancel his AOL account. He posted the encounter to his blog, where it quickly became viral, much to AOL’s chagrin. No wonder companies hesitate to invest in Web or even Enterprise 2.0. You just can’t be sure what will happen because you can’t control the message. And if you do try to control the message, you’re likely to face a very public blogger backlash.

Life is Harder Today , say Experts

clipped from www.msnbc.msn.com Life is harder now, some experts say Generation gap: After paying the bills, middle-class pockets are emptier So what's the problem? Why do so many middle class Americans with so much stuff say they feel so squeezed? If they are dogged by debt, isn’t it their own fault? Bankruptcy law expert and Harvard University Professor Elizabeth Warren spent a lot of time crunching consumer spending numbers for her popular books, "The Fragile Middle Class,” and “The Two-Income Trap.” In both, she makes this point: Despite all those $200 sneakers you hear about and the long lines at Starbucks, consumers are actually spending less of their income — much less — on discretionary items like clothing, entertainment and food than their parents did. In fact, after taking care of essentials like housing and health care, today’s middle class has about half as much spending money as their parents did in the early 1970s, Warren says.

NFL: Great Patriots Video
