Congrats Momma Mei Xiang!
Author: Raine

The long-awaited birth of a new panda cub in Washington came to a clandestine end Sunday night, when the National Zoo’s female giant panda suddenly went into labor in the dark of her den, the zoo announced early Monday.
Mei Xiang, the Zoo’s female giant panda, gave birth to the cub at 10:46 p.m. Sunday. Zoo staffers were not certain that Mei Xiang was even pregnant until they heard noises of the delivery and, eventually, the cub.
We can all use a dose of good things now and then, right?
and 
Raine

Yes. Regretabbly, this is known in scouting circles. It was the early 90s when the culture began to change (coincidentally, about the same timeframe as the Mormon takeover).
We've been very hardcore about Youth Protection since then. (Available to all, you may want to check it out if you have the time.)

David Horowitz On the board of Directors with John Bolton at the Gates One Institute
There is definitely a Mitt Romney connection that can be made now.

News from the Senate race:
Sorry, no link. This is from the Boston Globe "epaper" that I just signed up for this past weekend. Got tired of reading the fluff on Boston.com and wanted access again. I can share the story on the book of face, but haven't figured out how to track back to the source yet.
Two new polls show Elizabeth Warren leading Senator Scott Brown, one by six points and the other by two points, suggesting a possible bump for the Democratic candidate following the two parties’ conventions.
A Springfield Republican poll, taken Sept. 6 through Sept. 13 by the Western New England University Polling Institute, shows Warren leading Brown, a Republican, 50 percent to 44 percent among likely voters. The group polled 444 likely voters and reported a margin of error of plus or minus 4.6 percent. (The newspaper reported a wider margin of support for Warren, 12 percent, among a slightly larger group of registered voters polled.)
Polling began the same day the Democratic convention was concluding, according to the newspaper, a day after Warren delivered a nationally televised speech to delegates in Charlotte. The last time the newspaper polled, in late May, Warren led by two points, 45 percent to 43 percent.
The other poll, taken Sept. 13 through Sept. 16 by Public Policy Polling, a Democraticleaning group, shows Warren leading Brown, 48 percent to 46 percent, among likely voters. The group polled 876 likely voters and reported a margin of error of plus or minus 3.3 percent.
An August poll taken by Public Policy Polling had showed Brown ahead by 5 points, 49 percent to 44 percent.

There is a great disturbance in The Force.
We have a new enemy...Relay Health. I have no doubt that it is the spawn of Satan.
It's just a Clearinghouse; Emdeon can no longer help them.
If they can be turned, they would become a powerful ally.
