Ten faculty members of the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center became naturalized citizens in a ceremony carried out by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) at the Presidio of Monterey Sept. 5.
Four additional family members participated in the naturalization ceremony, though they had automatically become citizens the moment their parents received notification. The process takes place automatically if children are under the age of 18.
"The youngest person ever to participate in this ceremony was Ms. Zainab who is six years old. She was so excited about the ceremony and wanted to be there with her big brother and sister," said Connie Trautman, a DLIFLC Faculty Personnel System staff member who helped coordinate Thursday's event.
"It is a great honor to stand before you today and congratulate you on becoming United States citizens," said DLIFLC Assistant Commandant Col. Ginger Wallace, who read a short biography of each individual who received a certificate.
Naturalization ceremonies are organized jointly by USCIS and DLIFLC each quarter because of the large number foreign instructors the Institute employs.

Target Offers Discount, Free Credit Aid After Breach
Target is offering a store discount and free credit monitoring after what's being called the second-largest credit card breach in U.S. history.
The Minneapolis-based discounter also says it will offer 10 percent off for people who shop Saturday and Sunday. Target says it's heard of "very few" reports of fraud since thieves stole the credit and debit card information of about 40 million shoppers. But the chain is continuing to reach out to customers.
Some potential fraud victims say they're having trouble getting in touch with Target through its website and call centers. CEO Gregg Steinhafel apologized today and says the company is working hard to resolve the issues.
Target hasn't disclosed exactly how the breach occurred but says it has fixed the problem.

OK, so I'm a sucker. Sold my Kimber to a friend this winter looking to get a good, decent first pistol. He took to the 1911 like a rabid dog to a pork chop so I felt compelled to make him a deal on it. Thought I would be happy with just my Glocks to keep me company. Not that Glocks don't make me happy, but the more and more I dwelled on it, I really just missed having a 1911 in the safe.
First off, lets get this out of the way….Let me tell you what the Regent R100 1911 is probably NOT…
- It's probably NOT the pistol you will see gracing the cover of every gun rag next month….
- It's probably NOT the pistol that Nutnfancy or Hikock45 will be profiling on YouTube anytime soon…
- It's probably NOT going to be on the list of "must have" pistols on anyone's web site…
- It's probably NOT the pistol everyone is going to be raving about on the gun boards….
Probably NOT….but maybe it could be….
John Moses Browning's 1911 is THE American pistol. Forget the Colt .45 or Navy Revolver, the 1911 is more iconic in many ways than those will ever be. This is especially true since the 1911 has lived its entire lifetime in they age of photography where its use by good and bad guys has caught the public's attention. Even to a non-gun type person they would recognize the general shape and outline of the pistol and reply "a .45" if asked what it was. When you think of the pistol that our nation has relied upon, you think of the 1911.
The basis appeal of the 1911 is based on the powerful .45 ACP cartridge that it launches and the reliability that most people take for granted with it. The single stack design of the pistol along with the grip angle make a very comfortable pistol for most people to hold. Its relative thin profile makes it easy to carry for a full size metal pistol weighing close to 40 ounces. Its not without is issues, it does have its reputation for being a pistol that tinkering is needed in order to run smoothly, it is heavy (but that may be useful when you run out of ammo and have to use it as a club), its single action design with the "cocked and locked" carry is intimidating to some shooters and the single stack design does mean you must reload often. Despite these shortcomings, the 1911 remains one of the most popular pistols to own and shoot 100 years after its adoption.
The 1911 design surrounds us....and that is not a bad thing.
As most people are aware, the 1911 was adopted to replace the .38 cartridge which was found to be lacking after US involvement in the Philippines at the turn of the century. Stories of Moro warriors charging after being hit multiple times with the .38 round (hardball ammo mind you...hmmmm, sounds familiar to stories told of the 9mm in round nose configuration) abounded and the Army decided that a bigger round would be needed. The 1911 design was an improvement of earlier Browning designs and won the pistol competition over other competing models hands down. Its also rumored that the Army, ripe with officers from the Calvary (which was one of the first "elite" type of units in the Army), that it also wanted a round capable of humanely dispatching a lame horse in the field if need be, something the .38 was questionable I guess. Its first baptism of fire was with the American Punative Expeditionary Force excursion into Mexico to track down Pancho Villa after his attacks on Columbus, Texas in 1916. The pistol got rave reviews by the troops which was not lost on the Expedition's commander, one General John J. "Blackjack" Pershing.
The US' entry in WW1 was directly responsible for the Mexican expeditions return to the US and redeployment overseas and the experience with the 1911 in the dusty and difficult terrain of Mexico was not forgotten by Pershing. He directed that every man in the US Expeditionary Force in Europe would be issued one as a sidearm. Think about it, trench warfare in close combat with an enemy...your primary weapon is a 44" bolt action rifle with 5 rounds..a 7 shot, semi-auto pistol in .45 seems pretty hand to have around. In fact, the demand was so high for them that Smith & Wesson was called on to provide revolvers chambered in .45 ACP (issued with "moon clips" to function with the rimless cartridge) to help make up the difference in manufacturing shortage. The pistol was revised in 1924 with the "-A1" designation to include a shortened trigger, relief cuts in the frame just aft of the trigger, an arched mainspring housing and some other minor changes not noticed by the casual observer.
Unless you live under a rock, work for the Brady Campaign or didn't read my previous two paragraphs, you know that this year is the 100th anniversary of the adoption of John M. Browning's pistol as the Model 1911 .45 ACP by the US Army. As such there seems to be a resurgence of interest in the "classic" 1911 design recently and less of the "bells and whistles" models so often encountered with options and features absent on the original design. Remington, Ruger, Springfield, Para and others all produce a "GI" style gun that many desire to have. I mean after all, both World Wars, Korea, Vietnam and other smaller conflicts were all fought by this country with a standard 1911/1911-A1 style pistol so why the big need to change it, right?
The basic and humble 1911-A1 even saved Private Ryan...
So, a basic 1911 was what I was in the mood for this time. I have had a few 1911's that had some bells and whistles added to them and for the most part they are not needed. Forward serrations, beavertail grips, fiber optic sights, tactical rails, extended safeties or any of the other common customizations found on 1911's don't have diddly squat to do with launching that round at its target at the intended range that the pistol was designed for. Simple and basic (and cheap!) was what I was going for on this 1911!
I started to look at 1911's with a goal of spending less that $500 on a base pistol and accessories. I had a trade in I was willing to part with so my out of pocket would be less than that, but for the sake of principal for this endeavor I wanted the $500 limit. This price limit automatically cut out some of the common "bargain" 1911 choices such as the Springfield GI or Taurus 1911's. I was strongly considering tracking down an ATI Commander sized 1911 after reading a lot of good posts about them on the We The Armed forums and had actually started shopping for one when another budget gun caught my eye. In one of the gun mags that frequents my house I found an add for an attractive black and stainless 1911 from a company I had never heard from, Regent. Some web research told me that the company was under the umbrella of Umarex, a company known for its AIRSOFT products. Yeah, that's right, airsoft. The pistol itself if manufactured in Turkey, which is OK in my book since my experience with the Stoeger Cougar 8000 a few years ago. Turks can make some good guns, or at least they have the ability to do so when they want to. Long story short, the lack of ATI's in stock, a sub $500 price tag and some decent curiosity on my part meant the Regent R100 1911 followed me home one afternoon….
So lets talk about it already, shall we?
The Regent R100 1911 is a 1911-A1 style single action, recoil operated, semi-automatic pistol firing a .45 ACP cartridge fed via a singly stack magazine system. It utilizes a short recoil operating system in which the barrel and slide travel to the rear as a group for a short distance until chamber pressure is dropped enough for the barrel to unlock from the slide via a barrel link to complete the unloading, ejecting, cocking, stripping, chambering and locking process for the next shot. OK, we all pretty much know that....
The pistol itself is very attractive. The black finish and steel barrel work well with black Hogue grips (which are a hyped bonus apparently) and the understated "Regent" etched on the side of the frame to present a very business like, yet attractive, appearance. Being only a slightly modified version of the 1911-A1 design you will not find fancy slide serrations (or any on the front), a rail on the dust cover under the barrel, a beveled magazine well, beavertail safety (more on this later), or any checkering anywhere on the pistol that it shouldn't be normally. You do get a lowered (but not flared) ejection port that does not seem to beat ejected brass up so reloading with this pistol is an option. The extractor is the traditional internal design and also traditional is the short guide rod assembly in the mainspring. I do not think a full length rod offers any major drawbacks to a 1911 or makes it more complex really (unless you are talking one of those Springfield 2 piece jobs that requires a separate tool to take down) but the truth is the simple short rod works just as well, as two world wars and countless other confrontations attest to. It has a traditional grip safety and hammer, although the hammer is slightly flared for better purchase if thumbed back manually, which almost never the case with this pistol per the accepted manual of arms.
The fit of the pistol is pretty damn good. I had heard and seen pics of the incredible slide to frame fit of the budget ATI 1911's and if my pistol is any indication of Regents products, the R100 is slightly below, or at, this high level of workmanship. The pistol fits fairly tight together (despite what the clerk at the store tried to show me compared to another - more expensive - 1911 he was trying to get me to buy, certainly a tighter fit than any of my Glocks! The only exception was the grip safety which rattles considerably. The barrel is hammer forged as is also the slide. The barrel does not have a integral feel ramp but it does appear to be slightly throated and polished. The frame is investment cast and internal components appear to me almost exclusively made by MIM (Metal Injected Molding). I was going to explain these two processes in this post, but have decided to put them off for a entire separate post all together. Needless to say, in my opinion both investment casting and MIM parts should be "good enough" for most shooters needs.
The finish on the other hand may be an issue in the future. I have put maybe slightly over 300 rounds through this pistol and the black finish on the underside of the slide where it meets the frame shows some significant wear already. The rest of the slide seems well enough, but its not like I have been pulling this in and out of holsters or tossing it around in the back of a truck or anything. I know that is somewhat normal, but it still bears notice and observation in the future.
Controls and sights
The controls are straight from a 1911, standard trigger, magazine release, slide stop and safety. I must admit that while I see the point in extended controls, these work just fine for me. Matter of fact I like the standard safety with its smallish appearance. In my mind its less likely to be knocked to the "off/fire" position while on the belt or be pushed to the "on/safe" position while firing like some of the larger "paddle" designs may be. Also, if you are a Southpaw this 1911 only has the safety on the left side for right handed shooters, as per the original design (don't you know you are supposed to train yourselves to shoot right handed!). The trigger is the GI "short" style which is a bit different for me, but it can be "easily" replaced if need be (probably won't though). The standard slide stop is good enough for a defensive pistol. I have gotten into the habit of using an over the top "C" grip to rack my slide whenever I load, so having the ability to easily let it fly forward with an extended lever is not a huge issue for me. For those IDPA types that like that, again, its easily replaced. The magazine release is nothing new for a 1911 or worth much of note for reviewing, but again an extended one could be added if wished.
All controls worked correctly and positively in my testing of this pistol.
The sights lie above the vestigial bumps on my P-3AT and well below a 3 dot arrangement on any other pistol I have owned. My former Kimber had simple black black sights, but they were also superior to these. These are classic GI sights, small and unobtrusive. The sights on this pistol are a real chore for my aging eyes to use. The rear sight is a very small notch and the front ramp is equally as small. The ramp must be carefully lined up in the rear for a proper picture and takes some concentration. The rear sight is dovetailed using a GI style cut and the front sight is pinned in place. This makes upgrading them somewhat tricky as most 1911 sights available are cut for a a different sized rear and also a dovetailed front. There are options available though. Most appealing to me (too keep the basic premise for this pistol) is an enhanced GI style sight available for around $30 that utilizes the same basic rear sight but with a slightly wider and deeper notch to make aligning the front sight easier and a serrated surface to keep glare down. The front sight I will just apply some orange sight paint to make it easier to pick up.
The 1911 has a "traditional" external safety (it started the tradition by the way), grip safety and also an internal "series" 80 firing pin safety that prevents the firing pin from being allowed to fully go forward to contact the primer in the round until the trigger if fully pulled toward the rear. I don't particularity care for them, while necessary by design in a Glock, the 1911 should never be carried with a round in the chamber without the pistol already having the manual safety engaged and grip safety engaged until ready to fire. In addition, as the Ruger SR1911 touts in its literature, a lightweight firing pin and heavy firing pin spring provide enough protection against accidental discharges if the pistol is dropped chambered from normal heights.
There are no magazine disconnects, witness holes, loaded chamber indicators or key lock safeties on the pistol. An chain lock is provided with the pistol where applicable by law.
The magazine that comes with it is a "ACT-Mag" magazine, steel and of good quality. I had no trouble loading or shooting with it. I also bought a couple of Kimber 8 round mags and had no issues with them either. I will note again that the magazine well on the R100 is not beveled and inserting mags will take a bit of concentration to get used to. You could either have it beveled or add one of those grip extension mag wells to it if you wish.
Shooting impressions
Ah, shooting a 1911, nothing really compares in my book. The one thing that stands out in my book about shooting this pistol is that the trigger...well, it sucks compared to my other guns. It is just heavy and gritty and makes me work for each round down range to go where I want it. Its not like I expected much out of a GI style gun (and really, it was better than some other old 1911's that I have shot) but it is a noticeable distraction to shooting it. Not making excuses, but I think a better trigger (and shooter!) would show what this pistol is really capable of in terms of accuracy from the barrel. Hopefully, the trigger will smooth out if not lighten up with continued use as the metal parts wear against and smooth each other out. If not I could replace some parts (ugh) or send it out for a custom trigger job (another ugh). Or I could just accept it for what it is and shoot it as I adjust to it (no so ugh).
I seem to keep hitting low and to the left with it, which is supposedly a sign that I am anticipating the shot and "pushing" the trigger right before let off. I don't know, I think maybe the trigger has a bit to do with this as well. Either way, if I continue to hit low (an I am using a GI center hold on the target as I was taught) I can fix that my lightly filing down the front sight until my groups come up. Filing the front sight? Yep, GI weapons (1911, M1, M1 carbine) used to be purposely issues with high front sights that a soldier would file down to me their particular rifles trajectory and their sight picture. With today's plastic and already painted dot sights this fact has been lost on most people. Either way, I have some more range work to do with this pistol before its ready to be a "on standby" defensive piece, for now its a range toy.
Recoil is what you expect from an all steel and alloy 1911 and .45 combo, noticeable but not harsh. Too much for you? Stick to 9mm..
Some people experience "slide bite" with the 1911 (or any other semi auto pistol with an exposed hammer) when they grip it too high causing skin to be pinched (bitten) between the hammer and the slide upon recoil. I did not experience this but the rear of the grip safety and hammer did start to rub on the "meat" of my hand and did cause some discomfort. Yeah, I know, cry you a river and grow the hell up. That's the nice thing about middle age, you start to get to the point where you can cry and get away with it as well as have some of the resources to actually change that shit. A beavertail safety and hammer will probably find their way onto the pistol. Wilson makes a value lined supposedly "drop in" grip safety and hammer that can be installed without any additional machining to the pistol, we will see.
Pics and Vids
The "out of the box experience"…yeah, boxes sit on shelf for the most part, but custom cut foam is a nice touch and shows the company takes the time to cover the little things….throw a bushing wrench in there for future guns guys..
The pistol has classic 1911-A1 styling, and I love that…the grips are Hogue rubber grips which is a much hyped "feature" of the pistol…they are nice, about $20 and not all that special, classic wood grips would be nice though…I have put these on 1911's before, they work and they are better than the crappy plastic panels you might expect on a bargain pistol…
The R100 uses the standard non-extended recoil rod which has been good enough for 2 world wars, Korea, Vietnam and bunch of other real world actions to prove it works.
The business end of the R100, no front serrations (not missed), no rail under the dust cover (not missed) and no fancy front sight (missed!)
Plain old simple trigger, serrations on the front of the face of it help your finger get traction on the heavy pull that lies behind it…
Basic 1911 grip safety but the hammer is slightly flared…I have not gotten "bitten" between the hammer and the safety, but the hammer does bear down on the "meat" between my thumb and forefinger..this may be the one thing I change on the gun…and that tiny rear sight….
Looking for a beveled magazine well in a sub $500 1911…take a look elsewhere..
The ejection port is lowered but not flared like on some other 1911's..ejected brass do not appear to be worse for wear despite this…
Can you see those really small sights on the rear of the slide there…you can?, that's funny, I have a really hard time with it…but that slide to frame fit is pretty damn impressive..
Both the stock magazine (on the right) or the Kimber 8 round mag (on the left) have run flawlessly through six boxes of ammo.
The Simple and understated engraving on the slide is much appreciated after the Billboard sized stamping on the Taurus I used to have….
A few vids from yours truly...
Overall Impressions
So, to break it down lets take a look at the Good, the bad and the ugly on this pistol…
The Good…
- Affordable price
- Quality construction across most of the pistol, good slide to frame fit, investment cast frame seems solid.
- Has functioned without error in its first 300 rounds.
- Simple design, and simple is good (would even be better without the series 80 safety)
- Hogue grips are a nice addition..
- Pistol appears to be capable of better accuracy, even with the trigger pull, than I can demonstrate with it..
- Hammer forged barrel
- Magazine is of good quality
- Standard GI safety (some may differ on this, but I think the more likely NOT to be flipped on by the shooter the better)
The Bad…
- Sloppy fit on the grip safety
- The sights are hard on my eyes
- Untested company in terms of it firearms…long term durability is a question mark…
- I doubt the necessity in real life of the series 80 safety
- Some people may be turned off by MIM internals.
- Not biting, but the hammer is rubbing my hand, possibly fixable with a drop in hammer and beavertail safety (around $70)
- Only 1 mag shipped with pistol, and no bushing wrench.
The Ugly…
- Finish appears to be subject, wear marks already heavy on rails
- Trigger pull needs some work
Final Thoughts
If I was to rate this pistol against other 1911's available I would have to give it a "B" or maybe a "7.5/10" or "4 stars". Its a solid pistol and performer so far for me. Yes, its got some short coming in my book, but again, given the price its a pretty solid value for the money. Regent claims it gives you a solid starting point to build a custom pistol from and this is true. But after you factor in the costs of parts and such you may add to get it to a custom pistol config how much have you really saved (considering parts cost, labor, how much your time is worth, ect). As is, its a good solid pistol, but there are some others that can be had at or lower than what it retails for as well. Like I said in the beginning, its not the pistol people will be talking about...but it COULD Be. Maybe if Regent could offer a few bells and whistles at the same price point (they are offering a R200 model with a config more like a Taurus PT1911 but at a higher price point) like maybe that commander style hammer and grip safety (like ATI does) and just drop that series 80 safety I think a lot more people might take a look at it.
As it is, its a good looking, reliable and solid budget 1911, just one that does not have a whole lot to separate it from the pack. But it could.....

Wild Thump Islanders Tuesday Night
The Minnesota Wild beat the New York Islanders 6-0 Tuesday night at Nassau Coliseum. Former Islander Matt Moulson scored a pair of goals in his return to New York to lead Minnesota to the win.
Moulson started the scoring for the Wild at 12:23 of the first period. Just over three and a half minutes later, Jared Spurgeon slapped a one-timer from Dany Heatley past Islanders goalie Anders Nilsson for a 2-0 Minnesota lead after one period.
Mikael Granlund made it 3-0 on shot from in close at 16:02 of the second period, his seventh of the season. The Wild outshot New York 11-8 in the second period but trailed 24-17 in shots overall through two.
The Wild pulled away in the third period beginning with Clayton Stoner's impressive breakaway backhand goal at 4:56, tucked just under the crossbar. Stoner came out of the penalty box and took the puck in stride to the net for a 4-0 lead.
Justin Fontaine made it 5-0 at 7:06 when he snapped a shot under the crossbar that initially was ruled not to be a goal. Play continued for over a minute of game time until a whistle stopped play and Fontaine's shot was reviewed.
Moulson capped the scoring with a power play goal on a rebound late in the third for the 6-0 Wild win. Ilya Bryzgalov made 36 saves to earn the shutout in goal for Minnesota.

Meyer (Max) Rodriguez Garcia
Born: June 29, 1924
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Max was born to a Jewish family in Amsterdam. He lived in a working-class district occupied by many diamond polishers, of which his father was one. In the 1920s and 30s Amsterdam was a cosmopolitan city with a diverse population. Though his father hoped Max would follow him in the diamond trade, Max dreamed of becoming an architect.
1933-39: My happiest years were with close friends in school. Papa encouraged me to learn by bringing home newspapers to help my English. After 1933 German Jews began to flee to Amsterdam. Papa lost his job and we moved to Belgium. After my bar mitzvah I apprenticed in a diamond factory, but when I broke a gem, I decided to try something else--architecture. Fearing the Germans might attack Belgium soon, we returned to Amsterdam in 1939.
1940-44: Germany invaded the Netherlands in May 1940. To survive, my family sold cheese on the black market. I went into hiding in early 1943, but by June I was arrested and deported to Auschwitz. After a year in the camp I developed appendicitis. Nazi doctors allowed my condition to worsen over four days so that a young physician could see the removal of a nearly ruptured appendix. I was "lucky"; most people who needed surgery were sent to the gas chambers. As the Soviets advanced, we were force-marched towards the German interior.
On May 6, 1945, Max was liberated by the U.S. Army at the Ebensee labor camp in Austria. In 1948 he immigrated to the United States and became an architect.

I simply love them. Color was the same as the sample, and the price was great! Will order again! Installation was very simple also. I received them after just one week.View this product
"Keep going back..."
By NewestFan from Chicago
This is the 3rd condo for which I have purchased Blinds Galore. Levelor Perceptions are absolutely stunning. My husband was able to install them and he is Not a carpenter by any means. I had an incidence where I wasn't happy with the choice I made concerning the side they stacked up, so I called and the agent promptly offered to send another rail with an opposite draw. I tell everyone I know to order from Blinds Galore, it really takes the stress out!View this product

Nest Gets Sued Again For Patent Infringement For Daring To Make A Better Product
from the you-need-a-patent-to-add-a-voice-to-a-smoke-detector? dept
And so, of course, Nest has now been sued for patent infringement again, this time by BRK, makers of "First Alert," which holds a patent on certain features, like having a smoke detector that uses a voice instead of a loud beeping. Wait, you may be saying to yourself: you can patent using a voice in a smoke detector, instead of a beep? According to BRK, apparently you can get six such patents: 6,144,310, 6,600,424, 6,323,780, 6,784,798, 7,158,040 and 6,377,182. Okay, okay, I exaggerate. Only five of those six patents are about voice alarms. One is about how the damn thing is mounted.
Part of the lawsuit seems to suggest that the folks at BRK are just kinda pissed off at Nest's marketing -- in which they've said that "there has been no innovation in the market for years." That was clearly an exaggeration for marketing effect. What BRK is really angry about is that Nest's marketing is working. But that's how competition works. Yes, perhaps BRK put voices into smoke detectors first -- and that's great. But being first is meaningless. What matters is if you can get people to use the devices, and Nest is doing a good job getting the word out. If BRK were smart, it would recognize that Nest is helping to educate the market, and that should increase the opportunity to get their own products more well known. Compete in the marketplace, don't try to shut down the upstart because you're jealous that they're the hot new thing.
Furthermore: I've got two of the BRK First Alert smoke detectors/carbon monoxide detectors in my house already. They're definitely a step up from the traditional kind of smoke detectors (of which I've got another half a dozen around the house as well). But, frankly, the Nest Protect goes way beyond what the First Alert does and puts it in a much more compelling package. It's got lots of innovations that go way beyond just adding a voice, providing more detailed information, and is a product more likely to keep you safe.
In Nest's response, it points out that merely adding voice to a smoke detector was an obvious concept and shouldn't be patentable -- also pointing out that there's significant prior art. There's also the (big) problem that BRK doesn't own most of the patents in the lawsuit. Instead, they're owned by Gary Morris, the inventor, who licensed (but did not assign) them to BRK. BRK argues that it has the exclusive license to those patents, which could potentially mean it has the right to sue, but Nest points out that Morris shows those patents available for license on his website, suggesting otherwise (though, I just looked and it appears those particular patents are no longer listed on his website...).
Either way, BRK may be jealous, but it should channel that effort into building a better product and convincing people to buy it. Don't stomp on the competition just because the new guy is getting some attention: innovate and compete. The world will be a better place and more people will be protected from home fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. Isn't that better than trying to shut down a product that might help keep people safe?

A friend who is a professional chef calls me when he gets an itch to cook just for fun, something he rarely gets to do. So on Friday he called and said something about his wife being out of town and there's a Bill Murray movie that has something to do with Ethiopia and I said we're free and I have teff let's make injeera and dorowat and so it was set.
But here's the thing: for all that I know that one dish very well, I learned it from an Armenian woman who grew up in Ethiopia and I know that most of the side dishes that she more Armenian than Ethiopian and I don't know where the crossovers are.
If anyone's familiar with Ethipian food, I'd love to hear about what kind of side dishes are typical. I'm especially long on celery and carrots this week so any idea that uses those two items would be especially welcome.

Re: Really good pb video
So this is old, but I'm reviving it.
Holy crap.
I miss paintball
It's not so much about the gear, the game, but the team I played with to start, was like family. No matter win or lose, I loved it. It makes me want to start again, but the last time I played (two years ago) was at an NCPA tournament, and it really killed the sport for me. The field owner that was hosting, DQ'd us because we didn't have field paint. Normally, this I would be okay with, but on the NCPA website, where it has information for each of the events, this field had nothing at all. Many other events had the "must use field paint" rule bolded in the event, this did not. The owner yelled at our entire team, telling us how wrong we are in our doings. The worst part? He didn't even admit to the fact that they left out that important piece of information when they put their field info up on the site. Never. Usually it's the players that piss me off, but I met some very good people at that event, though I may never see them again, it really shows what money can do to anything. I know the field makes money off paint, that's no problem, but they didn't give us a chance, nor did they accept their mistake.
And lastly, the people I played with at my school, only one was 'my kind.' Surprisingly, there were no real stuck-up rich tools on our team, but it was a worse kind. Some people who started up in woodsball not but two or three years before, and didn't really appreciate the whole speedsball element. There was no team here, it was just rec-ball to them. The club was so disorganized, and myself and two others just fell out of it.
And then there is the industry. Holy cow. I worked at a local paintball store for two years, and I'm sure some of you have heard of the company, Paintball Central. A bunch of late 20 early 30's running a business. And boy, I have never seen so much immaturity. I feel like I was being bossed around by 13 year olds with too much money. It made me sick, it made me lose respect for the company, and eventually I no longer worked. Many of these people did not take their work seriously -- and the stores paid for it.
Good times, good times.

Was Level 3 The Weak Link That Gave The Feds A Way To Hack Into Google's Network?
from the no-comment dept
In a statement, Level 3 said: "We comply with the laws in each country where we operate. In general, governments that seek assistance in law enforcement or security investigations prohibit disclosure of the assistance provided."That's not a definite confirmation, but you can see how it would raise eyebrows. As the NYT report notes, in an earlier story, concerning claims that Level 3 had helped the intelligence community spy on Germans, the company had denied the report. The fact that it's not denying it here, but rather pointing out that if it had helped there would be a gag order, certainly suggests the potential way in for the NSA. If so, Google might want to look rather closely at its agreement with Level 3.

Technology now enables almost all customer interactions. What's more, it generates unprecedented volumes of both data and content. The ability to analyze all that information and integrate it into ongoing campaigns designed to engage customers across sales, service and loyalty is becoming a hallmark of marketing success.
Yet most chief marketing officers remain focused on such traditional marketing initiatives as brand strategies, campaign effectiveness and marketing ROI, and are still absorbed by episodic campaigns (back-to-school in retail, for example, or new car launches in automotive). Digital is largely viewed as simply another channel, the technology function as little more than a platform provider. A recent Economist Intelligence Unit survey sponsored by Accenture asked C-suite executives who in their organization was responsible for digital innovation: 23 percent said the CTO and 22 percent said the CIO. Only 1 percent said the CMO (see chart, below).

About the hotel
Tudor Cottage is in the beautiful village of Bossington, given to the National Trust in 1945 as part of the Holnicote Estate. The cottage has been tastefully modernised combining old world charm with today's comfort and offers three rooms, each with either en-suite facilities or it's own shower room with toilet and basin. Start the day with a traditional English breakfast or with something lighter as you plan your exploration in this beautiful part of the country.
Pre-ordered packed lunches are available.
Bossington is on the edge of Exmoor, a mile from Porlock and a few minutes walk from the sea. For those who want to forget the car there is plenty of walking from the front door in the immediate vicinity or off across the moor. Also the moor can be enjoyed by car with plenty of places to stop and admire the scenery and the wildlife, and the peace of it all.
For those who want a change from walking but don't want to drive, there are safaris. These provide an opportunity for relaxed exploration plus an opportunity to learn about the area. Transport does not have to be petrol powered. Bicycles are available from Minehead and there is a 'Pedal Around Porlock' circular tour as well as the opportunity to plan your own route. For those who really want to get to grips with the country and get off of the beaten track the area is ideal for horse riding and rides can be arranged for beginners and for the more experienced.
There are many attractions both close by and further afield. The nearest, apart from nature itself, is Exmoor Falconry and Animal farm where you can see a wide range of birds of prey and watch demonstrations. The Falconry also offers the opportunity for a 'hands on experience'. Some 20 minutes walk away is the village of Porlock, which for a small village, has retained a remarkable range of shops and has a museum and its visitor centre where all are welcome to drop in for a chat and to get some information and ideas for places to visit.

I was going to write an intro, call it a last gasp plea for why I hate writing around a cubicle. But in the end, I wrote the intro to this piece on my beloved MOR Furniture For Less couch at 7 a.m., with a stiff cup of coffee; the follow up came from getting out of the cubicle and just flowing for 10 minutes. Ten minutes--maybe less--where I just got to write outside of the confines of three walls. It's been an alright recipe. One that's cooked up two books.
Here's a post-intro chunk--credit goes to MOR Furniture For Less--from a November trip on the
that will be in next week's Fred Hall Issue. Maybe I'll cut it up and none of it will run. Maybe it'll all go. But either way let us call this Thursday's blog. A post travel days, pre-fishing snippet from the
Rooster. (Pics need not apply):
There's a cooked-to-order omelet under your hands — ham, cheese, easy on the bell pepper and onion — and air conditioning all around in the galley while you chat it up with a couple guys from the last trip and some new recruits. One is a dude named, ah let's just call him Fields, who makes his bucks in the valley you grew up in.
The three nights have gone by as fast as they can. But now it's time to fish. Try. Try hard. But you don't have to tell yourself that as the big, long drifts go down outside Clarion. "Try. You must try for them guys, try," comes from the bait tank from Andy Cates. You are ready to try all right. There are 100-, 130-, and 150-pound on seven-foot rail rods sitting up the rail way up from your designated number, up above the rest of the gear to the point where you can just jog past the numbers and grab the apparatus that you choose for the job.
It doesn't even take the end of the first drift to suss out the way this trip is going to work out: big long drifts way outside Clarion—they call it the Buffer Zone—where the short topshot is still going to rein supreme despite the total absence of anchor chain and rope in the water and the definition of scratch fishing.
Yeah, it's good honest drift fishing, but all the benefits of fishing a short topshot are about to rein supreme.
Hello Clarion. There's been a lot of thoughts that revolve around thinking about how to fish you this time around …

Areas teams compete at NSCs
WALKERTON — Bremen's boys track and field team had already beaten both Jimtown and New Prairie in dual meets earlier this season, but the Lions knew it would likely be a different story at Wednesday's Northern State Conference championships. With start sprinter Sam Lacher sidelined with a hamstring injury and a total of eight teams in the field vying for the top spots in each event, Bremen fell short of both.
The Jimmies put in strong showings in the field and the sprints for the conference championship with 132 points, and New Prairie was strong in the hurdles and distance events for second with 123 points ahead of the Lions' score of 108.
Culver Community finished fourth with 68 points ahead of host John Glenn's 67, Knox was sixth with 45 points, three ahead of Triton in seventh, and LaVille rounded out the boys NSC standings with a score of 39.
"In the dual meet and the tri-meets I think we beat both of those teams by two or four points," said Bremen head coach Mark Yoder of Jimtown and New Prairie. "Sam ran in one of those meets and didn't run in the other; we just were strong enough against them. But we knew coming into conference points don't work that way. We knew that they were going to have more strength with the way they would score. We knew the battle was up top with the three of us, and we just went out and did our best tonight."
While the Lions came up short of a team championship, Bremen's 400 relay team of Jon Stoller, Joel Miller, Reid Zellmer and Kevin Heckaman clocked a 45.37 time to win the title in their event after entering the tournament as a third seed, while senior Thomas Dean was named to the At-Large All-NSC team after his exhausting performance running the 800, the 4x800, the 1600 and the 3200, highlighted by third-place finishes in the 800, 1600 and in the 3200 relay.
"Wow, the 4x100 team coming from a third or fourth seed and winning that event, that was amazing for those guys to go all-conference and just really smoke with their fastest time of the season," said Yoder.
"A huge credit to Thomas Dean, our senior distance runner, who ran four events and just killed himself tonight. He ran the 800, the 1600, the 3200, anchored the 4x800, I mean there probably aren't many people who ran more than he did tonight if anyone. He just turned it on for the team and said 'I'm willing to do anything.'"
While Bremen got a pleasant surprise from its 4x100 squad and solid points production throughout the night from Dean, Culver Community got its best one-two punch from Micah Budzinski and Matt Hurford.
Budzinski, a walk-on football player at Purdue, and Hurford, the reigning 182-pound IHSAA state wrestling champion, finished first and second, respectively in the 100 hurdles, and the duo combined with fellow senior Bradley Beaver and sophomore Preston Hansel to break their school record in the 4x400 and edge out Glenn for third place in the conference tourney standings.
"With the hurdles, those two have been pushing each other all year long, actually for three years now, and gradually getting better and faster. I think they've only been beaten by the other this year. They're hard-working kids, and they're very coachable, and going one-two is awesome," said Culver boys coach Chad Hollenbaugh.
"We scored four more points than last year, and really that 4x400 team picking it up in that last race, them winning that kind of put us over the hump. They've been gunning for the school record, and they broke the school record by a tenth of a second, so they were real excited. We are a small school and realistically to compete here it's going to be tough, but we're right in the mix. All we can do is compete as hard as we can. I thought all our guys in all our races competed real hard tonight."
While Bremen's boys finished third Wednesday, the reigning NSC-champion Lady Lions were dethroned by New Prairie, 134-116.5.
The Cougars-Lions match-up turned out to be one of distance versus sprints, as Bremen's girls showcased impressive depth in the sprints, and New Prairie did the same in the long distance races, going one-two in the 800, 1600 and 3200 to unseat the defending champs.
"They're extremely strong in the distance, and we're very strong as well, but they were just better tonight. Kudos to them. They squeaked out a victory against us in dual meets so we knew it wasn't going to be tough in conference when they were probably going to go one-two and score more points in the conference scoring system," said Yoder.
"They did all I could ask for, and I told them you can be disappointed because they've won the last couple years, but they did their best on the night, which is all you can do."
The Lady Lions earned two individual championships on the night as Jasmine Schafer, Vianca Montes De Oca, Marisa Browning and Katelyn Aguayo won their event in 51.70, and Schafer turned in a 26.49 in the 200 to finish the night as dual conference champion.
Senior Kaley Gann placed second in the long jump and fourth in both the 100 and 300 hurdles to earn an At-Large NSC nomination, meanwhile.
"We actually have one of the smallest girls teams we've had in awhile, but their talent is abounding. Freshmen through seniors, they're just strong as strong can be. They have to double up, triple up in a lot of events and it's hard, but man, they don't show it," Yoder said.
"Jasmine has been unstoppable this year. She was pretty mad she didn't win the 100, so she came back with a vengeance in that 200. The girls 4x100 team is probably ready to break our school record; they want it bad, and they just flew tonight. They're getting real close.
"Kaitlyn is a freshman scoring in both the 100 and the 200, anchoring that winning 4x100 team, Marisa Brown coming out as a sophomore, super strong, Nicky Hueni and Jorgi Klockow in the 400 and Jorgi in the 800 — we just go strength to strength."
Schafer may have edged out Culver Community's Denisha Brown for top honors in the 200, but it was Brown who got the better of Schafer in their first finals match-up Wednesday, turning in a 12.83 comfortably ahead of Shafer's 12.91 for the championship in the 100.
The Lady Cavs claimed another All-NSC title when Donna Zehner topped the field in the discus with a best throw of 100-11 ahead of Triton's Becca Kennedy.
"It's good to see her get stretched there in the 200," said Culver girls coach Michael Buschman of Brown. "Still ran her season-best time, but these are the things we like her to see in the regular season. We didn't see a lot of that last year, and that provides for a little bit of a shock factor when you get to the regional level. We don't want to get second, but we like seeing this level of competition at our conference meet. She does a great job of competing, taking these things the right way, taking them as a challenge and not freaking out at these moments."
"Really, Donna is getting to be on par with Denisha in terms of somebody we expect to score big points for us in meets like this and to be a champion," he added.
Triton's girls finished out their meet in fifth place with 77.5 points at the bottom of a three-way battle between Glenn, Jimtown and the Lady Trojans with just 1.5 points separating the three.
Senior Breanna Lemler, already Triton's 200-meter record-holder, added another program record to her resume Wednesday with a 1:00.48 in the 400 for the conference championship there.
"She's a very strong runner, a very good athlete and very good at her school work at home. A very good leader for the younger kids," said Triton girls coach Shelby Feldman.
Also for Triton, senior Shana Anderson was named At-Large All-NSC after she cut six seconds off her PR to finish second in the 800 and also placed in the high jump with a 4'6" leap behind teammate Autumn Kann's third place jump of 4'10".
"I only have 12 kids, but with the 12 girls I have, they all work extremely hard. You can't ask for much more," Feldman said.
Elsewhere in the girls meet, Glenn was led by senior standout Anna Schmalzried's 16.98-second championship in the 100 hurdles, and sophomore Morgan Eggleston's winning throw of 35'03.25" in the shot put.
Glenn's boys earned a championship in the 3200 relay as Alex Crump, Cameron Mester, Luke Runyan and Josh Shank turned in a 8:21.40 to beat out New Prairie by roughly five seconds, while Hunter Schuman measured 51'5" in the shot put for the NSC title there, and Runyan turned in a 4:31.48 finish for runner-up honors in the mile.
Triton's boys got their best finishes from Jeremy Jones in fourth in the 200 and Jesse Burkholder in fourth in the pole vault.
J.T. Saylor won the discus with a 129'9" toss two inches ahead of Bremen's Nate Strehler, while Craig Romano finished third in the 300 hurdles in just his fourth time running the event. For the Lady Lancers, Danielle Romano was second in the 100 hurdles, and Katie Minarik cleared 5 feet for second in the high jump.
"We only have 11 girls and 20 boys, so our deal is it's all about heart and pride with them. We're not going to outnumber anybody; everybody runs about four events," said LaVille head coach Cindy Keeling." I can't say enough about these kids. I wouldn't trade these 31 kids for 70.

Reaction in Boston to George Zimmerman trial
Reaction in Boston to George Zimmerman trial
Protesters in Boston chanted "No justice, no peace" as they demonstrated against the acquittal of George Zimmerman.
Zimmerman was found not guilty on Saturday in the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Fla.
Sadiq Ervin, 15, of Mattapan held a can of tea and a bag of Skittles on the steps of the Ruggles Station.
Boston was one of many cities where rallies, sermons, and prayers were held on Sunday in reaction to the verdict.
The youth choir at Boston's Twelfth Baptist Church sang during a service that included comments on the case.
"This hoodie today is my robe, because I am that little black boy," said minister Willie Bodrick II.
Rudell Peeler listened to Bodrick's sermon, "Made For A Mission."
A protest by the Occupy movement was held in Dudley Square in the evening.
People of all races and ages gathered peacefully to show support for the teen's family.
Cathy Guild, 47, of Roxbury held a sign and wore a hoodie in Martin's memory.
About 1,000 protesters marched past the Boston Police Headquarters.
Pam Bailey addressed the crowd, saying "I am Sybrina," referring to Martin's mother.
Mary Miratrix of Somerville said she came to the protest out of "grief."

St. Louis, Mo., September 22, 2012 — Sophomore Ryan Bednar's 84-yard interception return for a touchdown midway through the third quarter gave Washington University in St. Louis the lead for good as the Bears picked up heir first win of the season in a 28-23 victory over Kenyon College on Saturday afternoon at Francis Field in St. Louis.
With Kenyon driving deep into Bears' territory, Bednar intercepted Kenyon quarterback Dan Shannon on the Kenyon 16-yard line and returned it for the touchdown. The interception for Bednar was his first of the season and fourth of his career.
Washington U. extended the lead to double figures at 28-17 with 12:32 to play after senior Dan Burkett found sophomore Ryan Lubatkin wide open in the corner of the end zone for a 16-yard TD pass. The touchdown for Lubatkin was the first of his career.
Kenyon's lone score of the second half was a 10-yard touchdown reception from Shannon to Carlo Gagliardo with 8:50 left that cut the WUSTL lead to 28-23. Gagliardo finished the day with 10 catches for 138 yards and three touchdowns.
After a failed Washington U. fake field goal on the Kenyon 24-yard line, the Lords had once last chance to take the lead but Shannon was picked off by junior defensive back Andrew Skalman to seal the victory. The interception for Skalman was his team-leading second of the year.
Burkett finished the day 17-of-26 for 149 yards and two TDs and also picked up 59 yards on the yards on the ground on six carries. Senior running back Chris Castelluccio had up a season-high 99 yards on 27 carries, as Washington U. gained a season-high 161 yards on the ground. Senior wide receiver Drew Sexton had five catches for 82 yards and TD, while senior H-back Trevor LaBarge added five receptions for 41 yards.
Freshman linebacker Matt Goad made a career-high eight tackles to lead the defensive unit, while senior defensive lineman William Small made seven solo stops. Sophomore linebacker Fade Oluokun added five stops and two break-ups after missing last week's game against Coe. Washington U. outgained Kenyon 344-285 and had a 32:50-27:10 advantage in time of possession.
With junior quarterback Eric Daginella under center for the first start of his career, he orchestrated a seven-play, 50-yard drive to get Washington U. on the scoreboard on its opening drive.
