Voyager Vest 117 117
Why do they sew the top of the outside pockets? This is a nice travel vest with a lot of useful pockets. I am puzzled about one thing. They have these nice large outside pockets but have chosen to sew the top quarter inch of the pockets through all of the layers which makes the opening to these roomy pockets much harder to get larger objects in and out. For example you can place a medium size paperback book in the outside pockets but not a large paperback. This is easily fixed by using a seam ripper or small pair of scissors and getting rid of the top quarter inch of the top seam on either sides of the outside pockets (be careful you don't cut through the seams that keeps the pocket attached to the vest or punch a hole through the fabric) which allows for the pocket to be opened fully and for you to be able to hold much larger objects. This is especially true for the outside cell phone pocket, if you don't open these seams I guarantee there isn't a big enough opening to slip in your cell phone. It would be so easy to exclude this extra top seam and make these pockets even more useable without making the vest look less stylish. I certainly hope Travelsmith considers this modification in the future. January 10, 2012
Good travel companion I am traveling to Europe and wanted to have a way to carry my documents of value w/o having to worry all the time that I was was at risk of theft. This vest safely serves that purpose. July 3, 2014
Comfortable and great pockets! Ended up wearing this nearly every day of my recent trip, so I could leave my purse behind. Perfectly positioned inner pockets to keep my wallet and passport safe from pickpockets but easily accessible to ME when needed. My travel companion had a money belt around her waist & under her clothes, which made access to show ID or pay for purchases an embarrassing contortion act. She went online & ordered a vest like mine the moment she had the chance! Vest also has roomy outer pockets for cell-phone, coin purse, keys, and sunglasses. The velcro closures on outer pockets are noisy & have a tendency to snag delicate fabrics, otherwise I would give 5 stars. Price is relatively high, but excellent workmanship/value. September 29, 2013
I ordered a large vest as I wear 14/16 the vest was too narrow in the hips. I have now ordered an XL and the vest is generously cut except for the hips, I think a size in the petite would be more satisfactory but alas not a choice. However, I am keeping the Xl and making do June 21, 2014
Lightweight and comfortable When I first put the vest on it fit perfectly and was extremely comfortable. I like the location of the pockets and the different sizes and variety. It will suit my travel plans to a tee and it will be a good addition. I really like the lightweight material. June 6, 2014
Excellent value if you get the right size I wanted a vest for two main purposes: travel and photography. I don't like to carry a purse very often because when I am travelling with my small child, my mind is occupied by other things. I can carry all of my essentials, wallet, phone, etc without worry. I also like to carry my camera with me so it is great to have pockets for memory cards, filters, and other small handy items within easy reach. I researched many other travel vests and found this one to offer the best value for balancing features and price. Most of the others that I found didn't offer as many pockets and one that I found with only slighly more pockets was about double the price. The only major drawback is that the vest runs a little large. I normally wear a small (size 6) and ordered the extra small based upon the feedback from other customers and my experience with other Travel Smith products. The extra small is the right fit for me. January 24, 2011
Excellent Product. Not only are the products excellent, but the customer service beats all others. I won't buy travel goods elsewhere. Fits perfectly and so very well made. April 15, 2014
Nice looking vest, but runs large I am your quintessential "medium" and this vest was enormous on me. Have sent back to TS to exchange for a small, and we'll see how that works out. April 14, 2014

I write about energy and environment issues.
A new batch of 5,000 emails among scientists central to the assertion that humans are causing a global warming crisis were anonymously released to the public yesterday, igniting a new firestorm of controversy nearly two years to the day after similar emails ignited the Climategate scandal.
Three themes are emerging from the newly released emails: (1) prominent scientists central to the global warming debate are taking measures to conceal rather than disseminate underlying data and discussions; (2) these scientists view global warming as a political "cause" rather than a balanced scientific inquiry and (3) many of these scientists frankly admit to each other that much of the science is weak and dependent on deliberate manipulation of facts and data.
Regarding scientific transparency, a defining characteristic of science is the open sharing of scientific data, theories and procedures so that independent parties, and especially skeptics of a particular theory or hypothesis, can replicate and validate asserted experiments or observations. Emails between Climategate scientists, however, show a concerted effort to hide rather than disseminate underlying evidence and procedures.
"I've been told that IPCC is above national FOI [Freedom of Information] Acts. One way to cover yourself and all those working in AR5 would be to delete all emails at the end of the process,"writes Phil Jones, a scientist working with the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), in a newly released email.
"Any work we have done in the past is done on the back of the research grants we get – and has to be well hidden," Jones writes in another newly released email. "I've discussed this with the main funder (U.S. Dept of Energy) in the past and they are happy about not releasing the original station data."
The original Climategate emails contained similar evidence of destroying information and data that the public would naturally assume would be available according to freedom of information principles. "Mike, can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith [Briffa] re AR4 [UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 4th Assessment]?" Jones wrote to Penn State University scientist Michael Mann in an email released in Climategate 1.0. "Keith will do likewise. … We will be getting Caspar [Ammann] to do likewise. I see that CA [the Climate Audit Web site] claim they discovered the 1945 problem in the Nature paper!!"
The new emails also reveal the scientists' attempts to politicize the debate and advance predetermined outcomes.
"The trick may be to decide on the main message and use that to guid[e] what's included and what is left out" of IPCC reports, writes Jonathan Overpeck, coordinating lead author for the IPCC's most recent climate assessment.
"I gave up on [Georgia Institute of Technology climate professor] Judith Curry a while ago. I don't know what she thinks she's doing, but its not helping the cause," wrote Mann in another newly released email.
"It's amazing how many liberals don't know the difference between science and scientific theory."
Exactly like they don't know the difference between finance and economics.
The sad reality is they don't know much about any of the above.
No, cyruspinkyfinger and the rest of you pseudoscience believers.
People who call themselves scientists, but who ignore all the rules of science, are not scientists, and should be ignored.
There's this wonderful tool, it's called the scientific method. it sets out rules for how you do science. This is a great tool, and people using it have accomplished a lot.
The people who call themselves "climate scientists" do not actually use the scientific method. This means that whatever they are (hucksters? whores? priests?), they are not scientists, and their work does not deserve any of the respect that normal scientific work deserves.
At the core of the scientific method lies the "repeatable experiment". This would be where a scientist specifies a starting point, a set of rules, and a claimed end point. Other people, people who are not friends or allies of the scientist, people who may very well hate the scientist, and / or want to prove him wrong, then assemble the starting materials, follow the rules, and then report on their end points.
If people doing this do not get the same results, then you have a problem. It could be that the original experimenter didn't describe the experiment correctly, it could be that the later experimenters didn't follow the instructions, it could be that the original results were a fluke, or it could be that the original experimenter was a fraud.
When one in-bred clique reports results that no one else can repeat, your first guess is "fraud". but regardless of what it is, it isn't science until it's replicated by other people.
That's not "Golden Age fantasy", that's the definition of science. It's a rule applied in every other field of science. It's not applied in climate "science" because climate "science" is a joke, not a scientific field.
ClimateGate 1.0 revealed this fact, when it exposed for all the world to see that the leaders of the climate field at the East Anglia CRU were simply not willing to risk letting an unaffiliated researcher have the information needed to replicate their work. The icing on the cake is that even the East Anglia CRU people can not replicate their own work.
The fact that they haven't been forced to pull all their papers shows what a joke the field is.
ClimateGate 2.0 reveals that the other people in the field are whore, but relatively honest ones. They know that they're not doing real science, they know their work is being used by unprincipled hucksters pushing political agendas, and they simply don't care. At least, they don't care enough to stop cashing the checks.
I don't know if you're one of the hucksters who's upset that the curtain has been pulled back, or if you're one of the eager and willing dupes, who just doesn't want to have his illusions crushed. But in either case, it's time to wake up and smell the coffee.
We're not criticizing the climate "science" community for violating rules from a non-existent Golden Era, we're criticizing the climate "science" people for acting in ways that every field of science rightly condemns as fraudulent.
I don't think there is really much debate about this, but after reading the comment by tparty, I am reminded of the tremendous failings of the American education system.
Cyrus- coming from a moron who thinks consensus is part of the scientific method. LMAO
Dear Dimwit,
As I indicated in a previous comment, I've never claimed that "consensus is part of the scientific method." That is a pathetic straw man of your creation.
People who create straw man arguments do so because they lack evidence and reason in support of their position. I'm sorry you lack the ability to debate honestly. I hope you and your straw man have fun together.
Dear Dip_shit,
You brought "up "consensus" as part of the scientific "process". BUMMER. What a retard.
Open mouth, insert foot. LOL. You crack me up.
One french fry short of a Happy Meal.
Dear Dimwit,
Apparently you don't understand that the term "scientific method" has a very specific meaning. For example, "scientific method" has an Oxford English Dictionary entry. As a second example, "scientific method" has a Wikipedia entry. So, what intelligent people realize is that the term "scientific method" refers to a specific body of techniques.
Unfortunately you don't share this understanding. As you admit, I didn't use the term "scientific method." So your claim that I think "consensus is part of the scientific method" is a straw man.
Now, I'm willing to accept that your reading comprehension is poor, and that fact perhaps explains your error and the straw man you created. However, I suspect poor reading comprehension is a generous explanation for your mistake. It's likely that gross stupidity is a more accurate explanation for the thought processes that lead you to misunderstand simple sentences and fill your comments with logical fallacies.
Finally, I note that this is the second time I've had to explain the same basic concept to you. Are you a slow learner? The evidence suggests you are. Therefore, as a courtesy to you, I'll try to help you avoid the "straw man" fallacy in the future.
In the future, if there's a specific sentence or idea from a comment that you wish to challenge, quote the specific section from the relevant post. If you find yourself changing the words of another poster to form the basis of your rebuttal, then you're probably creating a straw man argument. And if you need to change the words of another poster to make your case, then this is a pretty clear indication that you something intelligent to offer to the debate.
I hope this helps. I'm sorry I can't do anything to improve your reading comprehension. Good luck with that.
Dear Numbskull,
Hmm. Nothing of substance. Just more ad hominem drivel.
You never did answer my posts concerning no warming in the last decade??? BUMMER.
You sir, are an out an out liar. I printed the very quote of yours where you did say that it was unnecessary to prove AGW because all that was needed was a scientific consensus. You are a complete liar and no one should pay any attention whatsoever to anything you say.

I write about hardware and software YOU need to know about.
With the Flashback malware now estimated to have control of some 1 percent of Macs, owners are understandably panicked by the idea that their computer could be part of the biggest botnets in history.
That 1 percent number isn't hype or pulled out of the air either. Ed Bott over on ZDNet does the math:
With 600,000 infections in a user base of 60-70 million, that means roughly 1% of all Macs worldwide have been hit by this thing, which is capable of downloading additional malware at will.
That is a huge percentage, an is testament to how fast this malware spread and how quiet it has been compared to previous examples of Mac malware such as Mac Defender (which spawned fake security dialog boxes and demands for cash).
Compare this to Conficker, the single largest Windows-based infection, which at its peak in 2009 hit some 7 million PCs, or some 0.7 percent of the total Windows user base.
Yesterday I posted a link to the Finnish security site F-Secure, which offered users a way to check if their Mac was infected. Problem with these instructions was that they were too complicated for the average user to follow. They involved using Terminal and typing a lot of commands.
Fine for power users, but not for the average Mac users.
Fortunately, now there's an easier way to scan your system for Flashback. Called FlashbackChecker, it is a small tool that you download, extract and run. It WILL NOT remove Flashback, but it will tell you if you are infected or not. If your system is clean, then as long as you've applied all the updates for your Mac, you're safe.
Note: You need to run this checker tool on all user accounts on your Mac.
But what if you're infected? Given you seem to have a 1 in 100 chance of having this nasty on your system sniffing passwords, you need to be ready for that possibility. If you are unlucky then you have two options open to you.
The first is the manual removal method as outlined by F-Secure. If you didn't like the Terminal method for checking to see if your Mac was infected with Flashback, you're definitely not going to like this. It's multi-step and quite involved.
Alternatively, you could download and install the 30-day trial of the Mac antivirus program VirusBarrier X6 from Intego or the free Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition which should clean up your system for you. After it's done the job, you might want to consider leaving the antivirus program on your system so you're covered when it comes to future threats. Because, after all, future threats are likely.
If you have a Mac, I strongly suggest that you check if it's infected with Flashback, because this malware is real, is nasty, and is on your system to grab usernames and passwords. Check your system, deal with any problems, make sure your patches are applied, and get on with your life.
I fault Apple for this. The hole in Java was fixed months ago, but they didn't push the fix out to users till now. Savvy users probably avoided the whole issue, but Apple markets themselves as the system for non-techno dweebs.
Excuse me? How absurd. Apple didn't create the malware. Further, you have your facts wrong. The official patch didn't come out until February. Apple responded in a matter of weeks, not months. Could they have done better. Probably. But it certainly isn't Apple's "fault". Before posting such absurd statements you should do your homework. Further, there are serious questions about whether the 600k computers is even accurate.
To the author of this poorly written and proofread "article", your figures for "the single largest Windows-based infection" are laughable – .7% of windows computers would be far far more than 7M computers. The reality is that the Windows worm mentioned infected an estimated 9M – 15M computers and continues to infect about 1.7M years later. You need a fact checker!
A crucial piece of information about the checking application: you *must* run it on *each* user account on the machine.
Part of the check is done for a file in the current user's home directory, and if the malware was not granted admin access when it installed itself, it stores a file in the user's account directory structure, which the checker does look for. But if it's run in an account other than the one that got infected, it will not find this file, and you may think the machine is clean when it isn't.
is this download to see if i have the virus going to harm my computer?
I love to see that smug look being wiped off mac users faces, and what is worse that apple website advertises "you can't get pc viruses" which is technically true but also is misleading because it makes people think you can't get a virus. Maybe Microsoft should advertise "you can't get a mac viruses on a pc"
The more common the computer the more viruses and trogens you will get regardless if it windows mac or Linux, but apple still like to play " you can't get a virus" marketing card. Many of the massive flaws in ms activex controls have been fixed and since the .exe have been blocked when sending emails, which has stopped viruses spreading easily.

The Oskaloosa Herald
Q. My family is coming over for the holidays. I need to entertain my grandkids. What kind of gadget will do the trick?
A. The current entertainment in my household is Microsoft's Kinect. This is a $140 add-on for the Xbox 360. It does away with a handheld controller. You control the games by body movement. It actually works well and it's a lot of fun. Plus, it can be a good workout. If you have a PlayStation 3 already, check out the Move. This is a new movement-based controller similar to the Nintendo Wii's controller. Don't forget that the kids might have smart phones already. In that case, they won't have any trouble entertaining themselves!
Q. I just got an iPhone 4, and I'm worried about it being stolen. I set the four-digit code to lock the phone. Will that really keep thieves out of it?
A. The four-digit code won't keep out a determined hacker. There are ways around it, depending on your phone's software. Make sure your phone is updated to the latest iOS version. It closes many of the security holes. The latest iPhone software also enables Find My iPhone. This lets you find and remotely wipe a stolen iPhone. Formerly, you needed a MobileMe subscription for the feature. You can also use a stronger password. On the phone's Home screen, tap Settings. Then tap General>>Passcode Lock. Turn off Simple Passcode to make a password with letters in addition to numbers.
Q. I'm looking for a laptop for video editing. I will also use it for serious gaming. What components do I need to have? I want a Windows machine.
A. This one will definitely break the bank! Expect to spend $1,000 to $1,700 on the laptop. You will want an Intel Core i7 processor and at least 4GB of RAM. Eight gigabytes would be better. Make sure you're running a 64-bit version of Windows 7. You'll also need a high-end graphics card. Look for an AMD Mobility Radeon or Nvidia GeForce M. Higher numbers are better. AMD's current high-end is the 5800; Nvidia's is the GTX 480M. Additionally, make sure to get the biggest screen possible. You'll need it for video editing.
Q. I'm going to upgrade to a smart phone. I will use it mostly for voice calls. But I'll also check e-mail and surf the Web. I'm on AT&T; which phone should I get?
A. AT&T carries all the major smart phone brands. It has Android, iPhone, BlackBerry, Palm and Windows Phone 7. All are good choices. But if you'll use the phone primarily for voice calls, go with a BlackBerry. Specifically, choose the Torch running OS6. It offers the best call quality. Also, the BlackBerry is built around e-mail. And it has a very good browser to boot. Still, I recommend heading down to an AT&T store. Try out all of the smart phones in the store. They all have different features, and the controls vary. Choose the one that has the best combination of features and ease of use.
Q. I want to watch Hulu on my TV. My current Blu-ray player has other streaming services, like Netflix and YouTube. Can it stream Hulu as well?
A. It is unlikely that Hulu is available on your player. The networks behind Hulu have been reluctant to allow streaming to televisions. Currently, the Roku player and some Sony gadgets work with Hulu. And it is slowly coming to other gadgets. However, that is Hulu Plus, which costs $8 a month. Free Hulu is blocked on almost every gadget. Check with your Blu-ray player's manufacturer. See if a Hulu option is on the horizon. If not, you will need another gadget. Or, watch Hulu for free by connecting your computer to your TV.

Los Gatos resident Dick Chappell, 84, was sentenced this month to two years in County Jail after pleading guilty to felony vehicular manslaughter in the Oct. 23, 2011 death of a San Jose man riding his Segway at a downtown Morgan Hill crosswalk.
He will have to serve 18 months of his jail term and then undergo six months of mandatory supervision by the Probation Department, said Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Steve Lowney.
Chappell's sentending took place on Sept. 17 at the South County Courthouse in Morgan Hill during a trial presided by Superior Court Judge Edward Lee. He was represented by attorney Jaime Leanos, who has not returned several calls seeking comment.
The defendant remained silent during sentencing, but the family of Marschelle Syverson, 72, of San Jose, the victim, spoke before the judge and those in the courtroom who wanted a lengthier jail sentence for Chappell.
They spoke at length about Syverson and his life and the severe impact the tragic death had caused them, both financially and emotionally, Lowney said.
The accident occurred at about 6:30 p.m. at the intersection of Butterfield Boulevard and Jarvis Drive, in Morgan Hill.
Chappell, driving a 1991 Lexus SUV, apparently ran the red light and struck Syverson while he was in the crosswalk riding the Segway, Lowney said.
Syverson, who was transported to San Jose Regional Medical Center, later succumbed to his injuries.
Chappell was found to be driving under the influence of alcohol and was arrested and booked on charges of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and felony DUI.
Syverson had worked at IBM and owned a high-tech business in Morgan Hill.
"It's a very difficult case. It's nearly impossible to come to a just result, but I thought the judge did a good job," Lowney said.

PLAYBOY: Who's your ideal guest?
COLBERT: We want someone who represents something, who feels strongly about what they're talking about and will allow for a little dramatic friction. The most disappointing guest is somebody who won't be their personality.
PLAYBOY: What does that mean? How can you not be your personality?
COLBERT: Take Mr. Bill O'Reilly. He was a perfectly lovely guest, but he wouldn't be his personality. He wouldn't be the guy he is on his show. And I don't know why. I went on his show, and I was my personality. That was our deal; I'd go on his show and he'd come on mine. But he came on my show and he wasn't his personality. He wasn't an unpleasant person. He's a perfectly fine guest and I have no complaints other than the fact that I booked Bill O'Reilly and I got William O'Reilly.
PLAYBOY: Did he give you any advice? Any words of wisdom from one pundit to another?
COLBERT: He said, "Watch your guest list. If you book the same kind of people over and over—Al Franken, Keith Olbermann—people notice that pattern." I told him, "Oh, Bill, I toy with those guys. I'm slapping them around." He said, "I know, but not everybody is watching your show as closely as I am." I was like [clasps hands and holds them to his chest], "I've totally made it!" That was about five, six months into the show.
PLAYBOY: One of your friends from high school said you once joked about starting a cult. Is that true?
COLBERT: Yeah, that was an L. Ron Hubbard reference. I was with a bunch of guys—we were all science fiction fans—and we were sitting around one day, drinking beer or doing something we weren't supposed to be doing, talking about power. The question posed was, If you wanted power over people, what would you do? What career would you pursue? I remember one guy, who's actually a colonel now, said, "If I wanted real power, I wouldn't be a politician. I'd be in the Joint Chiefs of Staff." It got around to me, and I said, "Well, I think I would probably major in psychology and start a cult." [laughs] There's something enjoyable about cults to me.
PLAYBOY: Enjoyable?
COLBERT: I'm interested in what makes someone a cult figure and what engenders cult adherence, what engenders that behavior.
PLAYBOY: Are you surprised people are drawn to cults?
COLBERT: Not surprised. I'm fascinated. I'm fascinated that people want to know what to do. And people want to know what to think. And people want to know how to feel. Not just what to feel but how to feel.
PLAYBOY: Do you think that's unnatural?
COLBERT: No, it's completely natural. I'm surprised there aren't more unbalanced people in the world, because being alive is not easy. We're just not that nice to one another. We're all we have, and Jesus, are we shitty to one another. We really are. The only thing that keeps us going back to one another is that we're all filled with such enormous self-doubt. We have doubts about our ability to be alone, to self-actualize. We're on such a rocky road all the time. Every moment is new. Every inch of the mountain is fresh snow. If someone said, "I have been out ahead and I know what you're supposed to do," if I believed that were true, I would absolutely obey whatever father told me. I would stay on the compound.
PLAYBOY: You would just as happily be a cult member as a cult leader?
COLBERT: I'd love to be a cult member, just another loyal follower. It sounds very comforting.
PLAYBOY: The Colbert Nation could arguably be described as a cult.
COLBERT: In the loosest possible sense. It's an ironic cult.
PLAYBOY: But your audience listens to you. It may be a joke, but it's a joke with a lot of followers.
COLBERT: Which is not what we set out to do. When we started the show, we wanted it to have a mythos that would never be real. We'd play on the difference between reality and my character's perception of reality.
PLAYBOY: He would think he had influence but he really didn't?
COLBERT: Exactly. He thinks he says things and people listen and take action. He has a nation, this army he can mobilize. We were already too successful for that joke, to play on the vast difference in status between thinking you're a prophet and being on a show that nobody watches.
PLAYBOY: Because people were actually watching, and they got the joke.
COLBERT: Not only did they get it, they were willing to play along. I'm constantly awed by their willingness to play along with almost anything. They actually cheer things they don't believe in because my character says it. You know what I mean? I have a generally liberal audience, but they will applaud when I nail a liberal lion because they want my character to win. It's a strange relationship that seems natural now, but every so often I have to remind myself that this is not normal. This is not common.
PLAYBOY: Will they do pretty much anything you say, or are there rules and parameters?
COLBERT: I put a lot of thought into the ways we engage with them. [laughs] I always say "we," like "We're pregnant." But there are a lot of people involved. It's not just me, by any means. With the audience, we think about things like whether we are dictating their actions or inviting them to take action. Dictation of action is not nearly as fun for an audience. We've done it sometimes, and it's been a mistake. It's much better to invite them to be part of an action rather than saying, "I command you to do this." The other thing is, you have to follow through. If you initiate a game and they take part, you can't stop until it reaches a mutually satisfying resolution.
PLAYBOY: The Colbert character is obsessed with fear. He even had a rally in Washington, "Keep Fear Alive." Why is fear so intoxicating?
COLBERT: I suppose fear is like a drug. A little bit isn't that bad, but you can get addicted to the consumption and distribution of it. What's evil is the purposeful distribution of fear. As Paul said when he was faced with the gom jabbar, "Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration."
PLAYBOY: Did you just make a Dune reference?
COLBERT: I did! [laughs] If you're injecting fear into other people, then you're trying to kill their minds. You're trying to get them to stop thinking. That's antithetical to the founding of this country. It's on the Jefferson Memorial. I'm stealing this from Jefferson, but I'm also stealing it from the movie Born Yesterday. Bill Holden takes Judy Holliday to the Jefferson Memorial, and they read the inscription together. "I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man." Fear is an attempt to impose tyranny over someone's mind. It's an act of oppression.
PLAYBOY: We know what Stephen Colbert the character is afraid of, or trying to make us afraid of.
COLBERT: Everything.
PLAYBOY: Bears, jazz robots, happiness.
COLBERT: [Laughs] The list is endless.
PLAYBOY: But what about you? What are you, the real Stephen Colbert, afraid of?
COLBERT: [Pauses] Accidentally driving my boat into a pillar with loved ones onboard.

Fantastic interview with one of my favorite TV personalities. This is what Playboy is all about. Well, that and the pretty women. Nice job Mr. Spitznagel. I enjoyed this immensely.
Superb interview
"Does this announcement have any effect on the prospects of me getting the hosting job?" funniest part, lol
Where are the sexy pictures of stephen colbert?
wonderful interview Great the man, great the team, great the show. Bravi tutti. Greetings from Rome
That explanation of grief was really spot on. It's exactly the way he hits the ways of our news addicted group think. He is brilliant!
as always, insightful, fresh and funny. thank you mr. colbert!
We love stephen colbert in holland
Colbert's courage to disparage a "president" full face frontal in the midst of the most repressive and bloodthirsty government the US has seen in modern times ranks up there with Bradley Manning's contribution, and both are heroes for their duty to country.
that was beautiful
This made me fall in love with him a little more than I already had done.
I know he's a comedian, but i still think he'd make a much better president than either one of the two current idiot clown candidates. a brilliant man.
Great interview! Love Colbert and Stewart! Flew to Washington, D.C. from California to join with them in their Rally's. It's incredible to me how Colbert inhabits that character. It is comic genius!
He's our idol.
Why can't we print to PDF the entire 5 pages?

I posted a photo of my GG Grandparents Joel and Fanny Harrison. There are quite a few similarites is you look really close. Could it be them?
wondering if the owner of this photo had connections to the Williams Family or the Harrison Family (John Harrison and Catherine Lamb)
The woman has such a striking resemblance – can't help but wonder if she is a sister or daughter or mother. any idea of the date the photo was taken?
Hi Valerie,
This photo is as much a mystery to us as it was to the donor, so I am afraid we cannot provide a date as to when it was taken. Here is the link to the photo's flickr page with some info about where the photo came from, perhaps this will help: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ogsphotos/sets/72157633426681659/with/8718171248/
Hi Valerie, The photo of you posted of your Gr.Gr. grandparents, is lovely! Unfortunately, none of the names which you mention in your blog tie in to our tree. The names we are researching, (and which might be of the people in our Mystery Photos), are Nix, Hoard, Blakely, Maidens, Dempsey, Stoneburgh and Vincent, (all from Prince Edward County Ontario). For help with dating old photos, are you familiar with "historic photo detective" Maureen Taylor? http://www.maureentaylor.com/ Thanks for commenting on our photos, and good luck with your research!

Comments about APPLIED NUTRICEUTICA 1011121 Applied Nutriceuticals™ RPM:
I was more concerned on how this product affected my caffeine tolerance. I don't have much of a big PWO history,
but prior getting back into shape 7 months ago I drank sodas nearly everyday for 3 years. The caffeine tolerance
still lingers thus giving me mixed results from PWO's. I was able to try RPM for about 2 full weeks (2-3 pills)
and was surprised of the consistent energy it provided me. Within 20 minutes of taking the pills I was feeling
alert and awake. At times focus was light, but energy was strong which made my time between sets very short. As
far as the cardio aspect, I still had enough energy to complete 12-45 min HIIT sessions at the gym and at home after my workouts. I like how it's ingredients are stim free and for my tolerance, a little bit of it went a long way. Only small gripe is that it doesn't have green tea extract for that extra hunger suppressant as I hit the weights fasted, granted this was AFTER my Drive samples were used up.

I am pretty stim tolerant and can get away with only taking 2 RPM before a workout. And it is not that RPM is a high stimmed pre-workout, but it gives a good smooth energy that last through my workout and I don't crash hard like I have on other supplements. I stacked this with Drive and had some of my best workouts ever!

Four generations gather to celebrate Helston gran's 100th (From This is The West Country)

Four generations gather to celebrate Helston gran's 100th
7:00am Sunday 10th March 2013 in Cornwall
Four generations of the same family joined together on Saturday to mark the 100th birthday of Porthleven's Jacqueline Harris.
A party was held at the Harbour Inn, where Jacqueline was joined by her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great grandchildren, as well as many friends from Porthleven Age Concern.
One of Jacqueline's daughters, Bobbie, travelled over from her home in America with her family, especially for the occasion.
The room was filled with the scents of hundreds of flowers, in the form of bouquets and also plants for the Jacqueline's garden - especially colourful primroses and polyanthuses.
The birthday girl also received a cake and almost 80 cards, including one from the Queen - her second, in fact, after she received one for her diamond wedding anniversary with late husband Bill.
It was also her second party, having been thrown one at the weekly Age Concern meeting last Thursday.
Jacqueline's daughter Toni Simmonds, who lives in Thomas Terrace, Porthleven, said: "She was absolutely fantastic at the party on Saturday. She was up and down talking to everybody and making sure the ladies from Age Concern were alright."
Jacqueline moved to Porthleven with Bill in 1987, after Toni moved to the village earlier that same year. Previously the family lived in Maidstone, Kent.
They bought a bungalow in Treza Road, where Jacqueline remains to this day, living independently with visits from carers and Toni.
Before his death ten years ago Bill and Jacqueline were regular spectators at Porthleven Football Club, with Bill also keen on playing pool and watching all variety of sports.
Very sociable people, they enjoyed entertaining the many friends they made in the village and Jacqueline still enjoys meeting people on trips with Age Concern.
Toni thanked everyone for their cards, gifts and for attending the party, adding: "The Harbour [Inn] did a wonderful job. Everybody came and did something. It was very, very good."

New Castle News
A 19-year-old Ohio man was jailed following an accident in North Beaver Township that injured seven people.
State police say Travis James Panezich of Poland ran a stop sign and struck a minivan with six occupants, four of them children.
Troopers say they later found suspected marijuana while searching Panezich's Toyota Celica.
According to police, Panezich was driving on Stateline Road about 8 p.m. Tuesday and apparently failed to stop at the intersection of West Poland Road.
His car struck a minivan driven by Chad Hilliard, 45, of East Poland Road, causing the minivan to spin counter clockwise, roll over and hit a tree before landing in the front yard of a house.
The Buick Terraza had been hit on the driver's side, police said.
All occupants of the van were taken to St. Elizabeth Health Center in Youngstown. Some were flown from the scene by helicopter.
Hilliard was listed in satisfactory condition yesterday. Passengers Moyra Hilliard, 5, and Joselin Hilliard, 3, were listed in serious condition, and Courtney E. Hilliard, 31, and her daughter Nadia, 6 months, were treated at the hospital, then discharged.
Police said all passengers in the minivan were wearing safety belts or were properly secured in child safety seats.
Police said Panezich was treated at Jameson Hospital for a hand injury and released.
Both vehicles were towed.
Panzenich is charged with four counts of aggravated assault by vehicle while under the influence of a controlled substance, two counts of driving while under the influence of a controlled substance and five summary traffic offenses including possession of alcohol by a minor, driving at unsafe speed, reckless and careless driving and a stop sign violation.
He was arraigned by District Judge Scott McGrath, who set his jail bond at $10,000 bond. He has since been freed on bail.
A charge of possession of marijuana also is pending against him, police said.

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — Again, it was Moore.
For the third time in less than 15 years, residents of this city of about 60,000 must mourn their dead, help the living and pick up the pieces of shattered lives that now lay in a field of wreckage.
The devastation caused by the tornado that blew through Moore on Monday afternoon is painfully familiar. In 1999, and again in 2003, tornadoes laid waste to a sizeable swath of the city.
At last count, at least 24 lost their lives in the storm, including nine children. The reality of the tragedy hung heavy over all who wandered or marched through the devastation on Monday, and those who stood transfixed in front of it the next day, wondering why, looking for what and whom could be saved.
Day 1
In the moments after the EF5 tornado had left, there was stunned confusion.
People flooded from what once were intact neighborhoods onto S.W. 134th Street, refugees trying to make sense of what had just happened. Each person momentarily had to come to terms of what he or she had lived through and was seeing.
The storm had passed. The rain moved east. The sun was coming out. The massive tornado that had caused so death and destruction had evaporated, as if it never existed.
Communication was hampered by jammed phone lines. Texting was hit-and-miss. Being able to get a cell phone call through seemed a small miracle.
At S.W. 134th and Western, a young girl holding her mother's hand was crying, her face contorted in fear and hurt. Further east, a woman in tears spoke on a cell phone she had somehow gotten to work. Her mother was in one of the houses hit by the twister. She didn't know if she was alive.
One man who gave his name as Oliver walked along the street to check on his father near the hardest-hit area. His father lived in a mobile home. Oliver had not heard from him. He remained composed, but the look was belied by his brisk, determined stride.
Some nervously smoked cigarettes. Others huddled with family and friends on the roadside, as good a place as any for this type of reunion.
Police refused to let most non-emergency vehicles down the streets into the heart of the devastation. That caused some to set off on foot.
And walk they did, for miles.
People who lived nearby in areas untouched by the storm walked against the flow of refugees, wanting to help in any way they could. Several people offered bottles of water to passersby.
South of 134th Street and east of Santa Fe Avenue (signs were gone, so it was hard to identify streets), the wreckage began to appear.
It was subtle at first - grass and mud spattered on streets, houses and cars. Then, a downed power line or a fallen tree. And always the flow of people through the streets.
Soon it got worse.
Near Penn Lane, the full picture of the devastation came into sharp focus.
A neighborhood was now a debris field. Suburbia was now a replica of the old black-and-white photos of war-torn European cities during World War II. Once-cheerful houses and shiny cars were heaps of twisted scrap and matchsticks.
Trees were broken and stripped of bark. Their leaves were now scraps of iron and tin and insulation.
Power lines were strewn like garland over the twisted remains of homes. Broken timbers emitted the sweet smell of a lumberyard, mixed with a strong odor of natural gas.
No birds sang. There was only the ever-present howl of sirens and revving of bulldozer and backhoe engines.
Some people sat on mounds of tangled destruction that had been their homes, weeping.
And yet there was life among the chaos. First responders, National Guard troops and citizens busied themselves, picking up the pieces and searching for survivors.
One older man wearing blue coveralls stood atop a six-foot pile of wood and steel, once his home, looking for what he could salvage. He looked like a scarecrow guarding a field sowed with salt.
"Do you need any help?" one person asked.
The man looked up, not saying a word, then returned to sifting.
A bald, stocky man nearby told the newcomer that he had already asked if the man needed help and had gotten the same response.
The bald man said he had been helping search the rubble of the nearby Plaza Towers Elementary School. When rescuers started finding bodies, they told the civilians to leave.
Further down the street, Oliver, who had walked for more than two miles to check on his dad in the mobile home, found his sisters - alive and safe.
He proceeded to his father's mobile home, and found him safe, too. The father and other residents in the trailer park had fled to the nearby Walmart when heard the tornado coming. Oliver hugged his dad and they spoke in Spanish.
The mobile home itself was in relatively decent shape, suffering some minor exterior damage, although all windows were busted.
Someone picked up a faded picture from the ground near the trailer and asked Oliver's father if it was his. The old man shook his head and said no, and that he had found other people's pictures in his yard.
Walking to a trash can, the old man plucked out a photo and handed it to the bystander, grinning. It was a photograph of a pretty girl in a blue bikini standing on a sunny beach. No one knew who the girl or photo's owner was.
Night began to fall. Workers pressed on, searching the rubble. More than 100 would be found that night -- some alive, others not. It began to rain.
Day Two
In the morning light, crews were still digging, still searching.
The death toll, which had fluctuated wildly on the first day, had gone down to 24, according to the State Medical Examiner's Office.
Survivors were still there. The media presence had swelled.
Satellite trucks blanketed the area. Matt Lauer and Al Roker of NBC's Today show had found a perch amid the ruins, as had NBC's Chris Jansing. They were doing stand-ups. Media were mostly confined to an area just west of the Warren Theatre, which, despite taking a nearly direct hit from the tornado, was still standing.
Just to the north, the Moore Medical Center was not as lucky. It stood in complete ruins.
To the east, rescue teams with dogs scoured a destroyed business, looking for survivors.
Up the street, a church steeple sat impaled in the ground. Scores of cars sat crumpled, many tossed into buildings.
Maegan Jackson and Kaitlyn Newburger had tried to get to their house in the middle of the destruction, but were turned away by the authorities. No one was getting in without valid identification.
When asked what she expected to find, Jackson, standing near her neighborhood, said, "Not this."
"We were going back to nothing," Newburger said. "Isn't this crazy? Why are we here?"
As the two walked, they saw a dog wandering amid the debris and were able to form a makeshift leash using an Ethernet cable. The two were searching for the dog's owner, when Melody Hughes saw them.
Hughes, who works in a doctor's office, had spent the night in a makeshift triage center at the Warren Theatre. She had been watching her friend's dogs at her house, which was spared. One dog, Toby, had escaped.
It was Toby that Jackson and Newburger had found. And it was a tearful reunion.
"He was scared by the storms and bolted," Hughes said.
Meanwhile, Jessica and Tyler Ellerd were digging through what was left of their house.
Her family had set up a tent just off Telephone Road and spent the night there. They were worried looters might strike.
Jessica's father was at home when the tornado hit and hid in the bathroom. It was the only room in the house where the roof wasn't entirely ripped off, and her father survived.
"It makes you feel blessed," Ellerd said. She gestured toward the house. "This is just stuff."
Still, she turned back to the broken pile of boards and began trying to find anything she could save.

Two suspects accused of stealing thousands of dollars worth of electronics were arrested by Palo Alto Police. The pair was tracked by GPS software installed on one of the stolen devices.
On Jan. 8, police received a call from an employee at the AT&T Foundry on Homer Avenue reporting that a burglary had occurred overnight.
Officers responded and found that 15 cell phones, three laptop computers, an iPad, and other electronic items had been stolen, with a total approximate value of $14,000.
According to Police Lt. Zach Perron, "While officers were still on scene, a company employee used the 'Find My iPhone' app and was able to see that the stolen iPad had last been located in City Parking Lot C-6 at the corner of Sherman Avenue at Birch Street.
"A patrol officer went to the parking lot and began walking between cars on the off chance they could see any of the stolen property in plain view inside any parked vehicles. The officer saw a parked vehicle with a man seated in the passenger seat, and noticed that there were a large amount of items on the rear floorboard of the vehicle that were covered with a jacket."
The officer watched the car from a distance. He ran the plates and found out that the registration was suspended.
A woman returned to the car and the pair drove off. The officer stopped the vehicle for the suspended registration. The pair was arrested. Police recovered all of the stolen electronics except for one cell phone. They also seized burglary tools from the vehicle.
Detectives learned that the vehicle was stolen from a dealership, but the theft hadn't been reported.
Tania Marin Starr, 31, of Vallejo and Gerald Wayne Elliott II, 31, of San Francisco, were booked on charges of felony commercial burglary, felony vehicle theft, and misdemeanor possession of burglary tools.
Investigators are trying to find out if the pair is connected with other burglaries.
Police urge everyone to install the "Find My iPhone" app on their devices. However, Lt. Perron cautions, "If your portable electronic device is stolen or lost and you are using a remote application to track its location, notify your local law enforcement agency immediately and do not take independent action to attempt to recover your property."
If you have information about this incident, call the 24-hour dispatch center at 650-329-2413. Anonymous tips can be e-mailed to email@example.com or sent via text message or voice mail to 650-383-8984.

In the spirit of Miami's increasingly high profile in the art world, the Spectrum Miami art fair returns to Midtown for five days of fine art during Art Week. Fifty galleries and 50 juried studio artists display their latest pieces in Spectrum's gallery-style exhibition space, which showcases everything from the map-like geometries of Marcio Decker to the surreal, art-pop-flavored self-portraits of Nicole Furman. On a more subdued note come the Zhou Brothers, whose evocative and understated landscapes tread the line between abstract and down-to-earth.
It's not all contemporary works, either. Miniature bronze sculptures by Michelangelo will be on display, including a preliminary model of David and a sculpture of rival Leonardo Da Vinci wearing a dress. And those with a hunger for the very newest of the new in the art world can feast their eyes upon the Jackson Pollock-esque paintings of 6-year-old abstract-art prodigy Shorya Mahanot.
The Celiac Awareness Tour travels across the country to promote awareness of celiac disease and energize enthusiasm for gluten-free living. Each stop features presenters that range from medical experts who have studied celiac disease to vendors of gluten-free goods.

For three days in June, the Ohio Celtic Fest transports Midwesterners to the Emerald Isle with authentic music, dance, and merriment. Intended for Irish-Americans and non-Irish alike, the festival cultivates a connection with the old country through multiple performance stages filled with Irish musicians from the U.S., Canada, and Europe. Merchants offer an array of Celtic-themed gifts, jewelry, and embroidered goods, and a children's area offers entertainment for the little ones, which can include puppet and magic shows, and a petting zoo.
The 2011 Rock the Resort festival chutes fans through a two-day tunetopia of live rock 'n' roll paired with the watery fun of Clay's Park Resort and its adventure water park. Like Woodstock with even zippier ziplines, Rock the Resort offers a panoply of summertime activities complemented by ear-watering evening performances from an octet of popular artists. Headlining Friday night's jamboree, pop-punk pioneers New Found Glory break the waves at 8 p.m., followed at 10 p.m. by Third Eye Blind, the hit paraders behind "Semi-Charmed Life" and "Jumper." Saturday night marinates eardrums in even more dulcet notes, with Canadian bandoliers Three Days Grace polishing off the festival at 10 p.m. with a set of sandcastle-shaking shanties ready to be savored like fine wine from a scrimshaw flagon.
Cleveland Rock of Ages, a night of live classic rock mastery held at the stadium of the class A affiliate for the Cleveland Indians, opens with the lead singers of Rare Earth, Sugarloaf, Blues Image, and Iron Butterfly all joining forces as the Classic Rock All-Stars and performing songs in the style of rock's golden era. After a preliminary injection of sonic heaviness, prepare for shock rock's one-man governing body, Alice Cooper. The heavily mascaraed maestro, well-known for mega-hits like "School's Out," "Poison," and "All I Want Is a Jar of Nickels (For Christmas! For Christmas!)," will take to the stage bearing gifts of rock.
