Kellogg Schwab is a Professor in the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health and Director of the JHU Global Water Program and JHU Center for Water and Health. The Global Water Program integrates Hopkins researchers from public health, engineering, behavior, policy and economic disciplines to address the critical triangle of water, food and energy. The goal of this program is to achieve sustainable, scalable solutions for disparate water needs both internationally and domestically. Dr. Schwab's research focuses on environmental microbiology and engineering with an emphasis on the fate and transport of pathogenic microorganisms in water, food and the environment. This work includes extensive laboratory-based research designed to develop and evaluate molecular detection methods with subsequent application of these methods in field-based investigations. Data gathered during these studies are then integrated into exposure assessments for risk analysis and microbial risk assessment. In collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and state health laboratories Dr. Schwab has investigated numerous waterborne and foodborne outbreaks of viral gastroenteritis. Dr. Schwab's current research projects involve improving environmental detection methods for noroviruses (the leading cause of non-bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide) by integrating quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, proteomics and pyrosequencing. He is also investigating how important human pathogens including noroviruses, hepatitis A virus, rotaviruses, Campylobacter, antibiotic resistant E. coli and enterococci, Cryptosporidium parvum, Toxoplasma gondii and molds such as Aspergillus persist and are transported through environmental media (water, air, and food). Applying classical and molecular diagnostic tools, he has developed and participated in multiple research projects designed to evaluate the public health impacts of improving water access and potable water quality and the effectiveness of point-of-use water treatment. His research group has also examined the health effects of inadequate management of human and animal waste with a focus on assessing the impact of concentrated animal feeding operations on human health, the environment and quality of life in the communities in which these operations are located. He continues to evaluate the impact of human pollution on urban streams and the Chesapeake Bay caused by aging and deteriorating distribution systems by combining microbial, chemical and geographic information system (GIS) data. Recent international work has focused on developing field-portable microbial and chemical laboratories. These self-contained labs facilitate evidence-based assessments of point of use and community level water treatment systems designed to provide potable water to individuals in low income countries including Nicaragua, Peru, Ghana and South Africa.

Nano in the News
A New Way to Build Nanostructures: [11] The making of three-dimensional nanostructured materials has been a growing area of research, producing materials that are useful for electronics, photonics, phononics and biomedical devices. But the methods of making such materials have been limited in the 3-D complexity they can produce. Now, an MIT team has found a way to produce more complicated structures by using a blend of current 'top-down' and 'bottom-up' approaches.
Building an Antenna for Light: [12] University of Toronto researchers have derived inspiration from the photosynthetic apparatus in plants to engineer a new generation of nanomaterials that control and direct the energy absorbed from light. The team combined its expertise in DNA and in semiconductors to invent a generalized strategy to bind certain classes of nanoparticles to one another.
Energy Storage Device Fabricated on a Nanowire Array: [13] A team of researchers from Rice University in Houston, TX, has fabricated an energy storage device where all essential components are integrated onto a single nanowire. The nanowire energy storage device could give researchers a better understanding of electrochemistry at the nanoscale, and with optimization could also be used to power nanoelectronic devices.
A Homemade Scanning Electron Microscope: [14] Looking for his next DIY project, an engineer has created a homemade Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). While his homemade version currently delivers 50x magnification, commercial SEMs can be used by researchers to examine and manipulate objects at the nanoscale.

Partner Highlight: MOST and the Nano Haiku
What do 17th-century Japanese literature and a science summer camp in Syracuse, NY have in common? Haiku! The Milton J. Rubenstein Museum of Science and Technology (MOST) [16] in Syracuse, New York has been working to incorporate nano content into their ongoing summer camp program. As part of that effort, they're using the haikus from the Nano Bite to spark discussions about science content! One example of a haiku and the camper's explanation:
Raindrops roll and drop
from a hydrophobic leaf
leaving it clean
Bruno: "I experimented with leaves. There was a leaf called 'lamb's ear.' This leaf attracts water to it and when you dump it in the water, it gets soaked. There was another leaf (Nasturtium) that slid water off and it looked like a lilypad."
Click Here [17] for the complete blog post about MOST and their incorporation of nano content into their summer camps.

Serves 4
At Monterrey-style Mexican restaurants these are made with fat red hot dogs and are called salchichas rojos. In Tucson, they are called Sonoran hot dogs. There are all sorts of variations, but the bacon-wrapped weiner is essential. Look for a small size bolillo or torpedo roll to keep the bread-to-meat ratio in line.
Put the cleaned tomatillos in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off the heat and allow the tomatillos to soak for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain, and puree the tomatillos in a food processor. Add the cilantro, serranos, onion, garlic sugar, and lime juice to the food processor and pulse three or four times to combine. Season with salt to taste.
Mix the mayo, Tabasco, and lemon juice and use a funnel to put the mayo blend in a squeeze bottle. Wrap the wieners with the bacon slices so the sausage is completely covered. Cook the wieners on a comal or flat top, rolling them over until the bacon is crunchy on all sides, about 7 minutes. Cut a pocket into the buns to form a "boat" and toast them on the grill. When the wieners are cooked, divide the beans and avocado among the four rolls, spooning them inside the pocket and spreading on either side. Spread the cheese down the middle. Using tongs put one piping-hot bacon-wrapped wiener into the pocket of each roll. Top each wiener with onions and tomatoes. Spread the Salsa Verde across the top. Apply the mayo blend in squiggles across the top of the hot dog.

7/22/2011The first time I had this was in Pennsylvania and they called it a Texas Tommy, healthy no, yummy yes.
by Linda_52,
6/24/2011My daughter just came back from Tucson on a vacation where she raved about these hot dogs! I surfed the web and came across this recipe, so glad I did.
I made a couple of changes and the result was fantastic. Used pinto beans and placed them in the bun first, made guacamole, BBQ the dogs and steamed the buns 1 minute prior to serving! I went by what my daughter had been served in Tucson, we were not disappointed with these minor changes. A wetter dog that's for sure
I increased the mayonnaise & placed it in a squirt bottle so everyone could drizzle it over the dogs, did the same with the salsa verde. Impressive, my dinner was a hit! No left overs & two guests went to U of A ... what was I thinking they ate these on a regular basis. Let's just say these Sonoran Dogs we the talk of the evening.
Served Margaritas, three fruit salsa and a southwest caesar with polenta croutons!
Food Coma.........haha
by CarolWC,
10/23/2010My son and I just had these for dinner. We both loved them, but we thought the mayonnaise sauce was thin. Are the measurements correct: 4 teaspoons mayonnaise and a whole lemon? Perhaps 1/2 a lemon or more mayonnaise would have made a less runny sauce. I did use bottled salsa verde, but it was still excellent. We definitely intend to have them again.
by apperrault,
8/31/2010I had these hot dogs the last time I was in Tucson this summer and they are AMAZING. When I got home I tried to recreate them, and they were OK, but not as amazing. I think it was probably the wrong hot dog and a couple missing ingredients in the cream mixture.
Also, if I can recommend something to people making this, I roast my tomatillos in a 400 degree oven until they start to break down, and then put all of that in the blender with the other ingredients to make the salsa. I think the roasting makes the salsa SO much more flavorful
by wuvs2cook,
8/7/2010Saw a TV show where I first heard about Sonoran Hot Dogs. Saw this recipe tried it, and was so happy I did. The flavor is amazing and undescribable you just have to savor it for yourself to understand my enjoyment of this recipe.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before. When I'm using my mobile device (Android) for navigating the message board, the Recent Topics window in the top right-hand corner of the screen will disappear. It is there when I first load the page, then disappears after a few ticks.
Obviously this isn't a big deal (I've been dealing with it for, like, ever), but I figured I would throw it out there in case its effecting anybody else. It is convenient to have those links available when you're surfing the MB.

How To Poach Chicken
Home Hacks
What You Need
Chicken, either whole or in parts
2 celery stalks, diced
1 onion, diced
2 carrots, diced
2 tsp. salt
15 black peppercorns
A pot big enough to hold the chicken so that it is submerged in liquid
1. Place all of the ingredients in the pot and bring the water to a boil.
2. Cover pot and reduce heat to a simmer. If cooking chicken parts, 15 minutes is enough. For a whole chicken, simmer for 45 minutes to a hour.
3. Check the chicken for doneness; it should be white, not pink. When the chicken is cooked, remove from the poaching liquid and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

We need more details about the poaching and roasting combo, please. :)
I'm not usually a huge chicken fan, but Mark Bittman's Hainanese chicken with rice has transformed my chicken mind-set. He poaches the chicken in a similar manner as above (though with garlic and ginger) and then uses some of the poaching liquid to cook the rice. Amazing and pretty hands off too!
Poached (Hainanese) chicken with rice is simple and delicious! A popular dish in Malaysia and Singapore.
see recipe http://www.mykitchensnippets.com/2008/06/hainanese-chicken-rice.html
Poaching and BBQing makes sense, but poaching and roasting? Why not just take a blow torch to the skin after poaching?
My mother did not buy canned broth, so when we had turkey, she would "poach" the turkey to make broth for the dressing. She baked her dressing in the pan with the turkey and both were always delicious. .
What, no mention of keeping the poaching liquid?
This is essentially making chicken soup... I always boil a raw chicken to make soup and then eat the meat after!
@cweingarten - my bad, you are correct, the poaching liquid should be reserved for broth.
I did this last night and to me, the end result was like just like cooking a chicken in the pressure cooker, just there's more liquid at the end and it took twice as long to cook.
But I totally made super Unsick-Me soup from the broth, chicken, garlic, peas, mushrooms, carrots, celery, asparagus, onions, cauliflower, red pepper and twirly pasta. Take that stupid cold!!
During the Peak Potentials Training dinner meeting, they served roasted chicken that was poached before roasted. And I really agree that the chicken is very crispy and we all loved the recipe!

This month, we are taking a look at the Precision Link Direct program from Abbott Diabetes Care.
The opening screen in Precision Link allows you to accomplish several tasks. I selected New Patient, which let me set up myself as a new patient in the system. I entered my name, gave myself a patient ID and entered the "patient settings." There I selected the time periods for before and after meals, bedtime, night and so on. I also set up numbers for high and low blood glucose target ranges.
The next step is to upload the data from a glucose meter. Precision Link does not let you manually enter data. Instead, it quickly downloads the data from the meter and lets you view or analyze that data with various charts and graphs.
To view the blood glucose data from your meter, click on the "View Patient" button, and it will bring up another screen. This screen displays the name of the patient at the top and has a large area for showing a graph or chart of the information. At the bottom of the screen, and along the right border, are options for changing what is displayed in the graph area. For example, you can change the type of graph shown or the date range shown.
Precision Link displays the data in the following formats: date and time trends, statistics view, a scatter plot and a logbook. This gives you many different ways to look at the data and determine whether there are any problem areas in your diabetes management that need to be addressed. You may print out all of the charts for review by your CDE or physician.
Another feature of the software is its ability to manage data for multiple patients. While this may not be needed by the average home user, it is valuable to clinicians using the software in their practices. The software can also share data over a network, which can help clinicians in a healthcare system or hospital setting.
Precision Link costs $29.95 and can be ordered directly from Abbott Diabetes Care.
For more information, contact Abbott Diabetes Care at (888) 522-5226 or visit www.abbottdiabetescare.com.
Precision Link Direct works with the following glucose meters:

A synthetic hormone developed by Arizona Cancer Center and University of Arizona Department of Chemistry researchers two decades ago has been shown to offer relief for a rare skin disease in clinical studies in Australia and Europe.
Clinuvel Pharmaceuticals Ltd. of Melbourne, Australia, announced in July its drug Scenesse -- developed and patented at the UA under the name afamelanotide -- reduced and prevented painful reactions to sunlight experienced by people with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) following a year-long Phase III trial. As a result of these positive clinical data, afamelanotide has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for a Phase II clinical trial in the US.
EPP is a rare genetic disease found mainly in people with fair skin. It is characterized by intolerance to light and results in pain, swelling, burning and scarring of sun-exposed areas the skin. People with this condition are often forced to remain indoors during daylight hours. There are an estimated 10,000 people who suffer from EPP worldwide.
Afamelanotide, also known as Melanotan I, developed by UA Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry professor Victor Hruby, PhD, and the late Mac Hadley, PhD, a Biology and Anatomy professor, is a superpotent form of the naturally occurring alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH) which stimulates melanin production. Melanin is known for its photoprotective effect on the skin.
The Clinuvel drug was administered under the skin as a dissolvable implant about the size of a grain of rice. There were 91 participants in the double-blind study.
"The results of this long-awaited trial are positive, showing a major benefit in pain intensity and sun exposure," said Robert Dorr, PhD, an Arizona Cancer Center researcher and professor of pharmacology in the UA's College of Medicine, who was involved in the hormone's early development.
Initial proof-of-principle clinical trials were conducted at the Arizona Cancer Center under the Chemoprevention of Skin Cancer program project grant led by David Alberts, MD, AZCC director. Initial study results were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1991, Dorr said.
"Afamelanotide could prove a potent strategy for primary prevention of skin cancer through its longterm, natural tanning capability, even for redheads and blondes who always suffer sun burns when exposed to the sun," Dr. Alberts said.

Cookies are small bundles of information stored on a computer's hard drive. News to me.
I think of cookies as small bundles of butter and flour stored in a tin and downloaded, frequently.
Apparently cookies do annoying things like traipse around the Internet, snooping. Which is why many a savvy consumer installs a cookie blocker.
Denying access to cookies, or to certain cookies. A sound idea over the holidays, when cookies appear on every platform — work, school, gym and dentist's lair. The internal browser can't help but find gingerboy, raspberry thumbprint, coconut bar, almond horn and wintermint bark. A condition the search engine terms "persistent cookies."
Cookie-handling instructions begin: Delete all cookies previously installed. If only! Then, set the browser to accept only good cookies.
Like Danielle's chocolate smooches. They're truffles, in cookie form. They melt on contact. Each little lump is so chocolate-suffused and butter-blessed that no user could consider it a nuisance. Frankly, any browser directed to block this cookie would exercise artificial intelligence and refuse.
Chocolate smooches
Prep: 30 minutes
Chill: 1 hour
Bake: 10 minutes per batch
Makes: About 5 dozen
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut up
½ cup flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa ("natural," not Dutch processed)
¼ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Tumble 1 cup chocolate chips, the unsweetened chocolate and the butter into a mixing bowl. Zap briefly and stir until melted. Let cool.
Sift flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt.
Use an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to beat sugar, eggs and vanilla pale and frothy, about 2 minutes.
Scrape in melted chocolate; mix on low. Add flour; mix on low. Fold in remaining 1 cup chocolate chips.
Cover and chill firm, about 1 hour.
Use a 1 1/4-inch diameter ice-cream scoop (or a heaping teaspoon) to shape small balls. Arrange 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets.
Slide sheets into a 350-degree oven and bake until puffed and set – but still soft in the center – about 10 minutes. Cool on a rack. Enjoy, with holidays.
From my friend Danielle, who in 2000 snipped it out of Gourmet, which got the recipe from reader Ann Bolger. Lightly adapted.

On Dec. 28, 2012, Wendy Schultz (Opinion Page) wrote, "I am not a fan of guns and I do not believe there is any reason a civilian needs an automatic weapon." Congress has outlawed automatic weapons, also called machine guns, for civilian use since 1934. Only the military and law enforcement are allowed to have them.
The weapons that you are referring to are called semi-automatic and are not a true "assault rifle." This is California's anti-gun definition. True assault rifles are capable of firing select fire or full auto, in a manner comparable to the U.S. Army M4A1 Carbine. Rifles for the civilian market are restricted to semi-automatic operation only, in which the trigger must be pulled to initiate each shot. The civilian rifles were never select fire or full auto (a category of firearms relegated to military use only in terms of its operation). The semi-automatic action of the so-called "assault rifle" is identical to the action of other countless and legal, self-loading handguns, rifle and shotguns.
So, Wendy, since full automatic rifles (machine guns) have already been banned what new law would you suggest we put on the books? Ban all semi-automatic weapons, both which look like military rifles but aren't, and all legal civilian hunting rifles that have the same action?
I doubt weapons are the problem since all of the recent shooters have proven to be mentally unbalanced and had stolen the weapons they used. You have a right not to like guns, but please, don't call semi-automatics a machine gun or an assault weapon. There is a difference.
Shingle Springs
Same old NRA bull-sh-t efforts to defend and sell more guns: not a true assault weapon, good for hunting, entirely a mental health problem: Those of us who where in the Marine Corps during the 60s were taught and learned from experience that using the AR-16 on semi-automatic mode, which is equivalent to the AR-15, is preferred and most efficient for close in fighting and killing quantities of people. There are situations in the military when full automatic is preferred, an example walking point (lead man for a column) when you don't know what you may be confronted with and have back-up, automatic would be the preferred mode. Automatic empties twenty rounds from a magazine in the time it takes to say, good morning to you and your family, leaving you with an empty weapon and most often the near by pagoda full of stray rounds. The concern many of us have with the AR-15 is, it's fast and efficient on semi-automatic mode, cheap magazines can be purchased to increase its fire power, can be purchase from almost any gun store and out guns most police. Additionally, in the late 60s though 80s and even on line occasionally today millions of SEAR kits were sold at gun shows and gun stores across our nation which easily convert the AR-15 to full automatic making them even more efficient. Wendy is correct, "they is no place in civilized society for these weapons."Reply |
Speaking of civilized societies, Richard, you'll be pleased to know that Christopher Dorner MAY be dead. Police say they have 'reason to believe' the charred remains found inside the cabin they set on fire are his. It could take days or weeks to positively identify the body. - HEREReply |

"Obama's Expanding Kill List" - HERE - 24% [of registered voters] agree with the Obama regime that it is permissible for the government to murder its own citizens on accusation alone without trial and conviction of a capital crime.Reply |
Evelyn, in the above comment, points out something that, combined with the NDAA (end of due process) should scare the daylights out of any freedom loving American. All this gun control hype is a major distraction from some REAL theft of our civil liberties in the US.Reply |
. . . as it's meant to be, Paddy.Reply |
Why is that weapon of war in civilian use and so easily acquired across the country? Why is it not restricted for military and law enforcement use only? Not only is there no federal ban on assault weapons, the vast majority of states have no specific laws restricting these dangerous weapons or high-capacity magazines. Yes, bad people could still get them on the black market. Yes, handguns kill far more people in America than weapons like the AR-15. So what? Reasonable people can agree that such weapons can be restricted among civilians without threatening the Second Amendment rights of others.Reply |
Richard aka Jeff aka Assault weapon, ever heard of the NDAA?Reply |
Every liberal seems to know what you need or don't and are experts in the field. There is no such rifle as an AR-16, never has been. The point that felons have in possession modified to full auto weapons proves that is where the focus should be, locking up criminals and the armed mentally ill, not the law abiding, tax paying, business and home owning citizen. Most who have served their country do not support new gun control laws for the law abiding but do support tough new laws and enforcement of current laws against felons owning firearms and the mentally ill. The fully automatic AK series of rifles are available throughout the world for under a hundred dollars, what does it prove? I would love to see these brilliant liberals go to Russia and China and tell them to stop production for a safer world. I can guess a long time in the Siberian Gulag or Chinese Labor camp would be the result.Reply |
The AR-16 is an assault rifle designed by the ArmaLite Company to replace the AR-10 and AR-15 rifles. Crawl back in your hole Frank, as a group of gun nuts you have no credibility and are on the wrong side of history.Reply |
A history of the Armalite AR series shows there were three production rifles made using the AR-16 designation, it was never issued and never adopted into use by military or others. The wrong side of history is supporting disarming or legally making new confusing laws that apply to the law abiding citizens while releasing thousands of felons early and allowing criminal gangs to grow to the point entire cities are unsafe. Those ar ethe real crime problems.Reply |
Again, Richurd, AKA Jeff, AKA Assault Weapon, has demonstrated that he is a liar. The AR16 was never put in service by our military, in which Richurd allegedly served (but did not). Your credibility is down into negative integers now Sparky. You're not even good for entertainment purposes.Reply |
Your correct Frank, you can come out of your hole now. Early 1966 they took our M-14s away and give us the M-16 w/ 20 round magazines, the AR-16 is basically the same weapon.Reply |
During the Civil War, the Henry rifle was the "Devil Gun" it fired 16 shots as fast as the lever could be cycled and it helped the Union win the war. The M-14 was and is a fine rifle, too heavy for all day marches but it tended to be accurate and surpassed what the NVA and VC had from Russia. The M-14 is a good and valuable rifle if you can find one. The civilian M1A1 is as well. The AR series are also good rifles and are owned by millions of honest law abiding people who use them for a variety of things. What is getting way too confusing is each state's gun laws are different and troublesome for the law abiding citizen and law enforcement. There has to be some agreement on how to deal with the criminal use of guns by the people who should not have access to them. This will immediately reduce misuse of guns and crime and make the country safer.Reply |
"There has to be some agreement on how to deal with the criminal use of guns by the people who should not have access to them. This will immediately reduce misuse of guns and crime and make the country safer." Frank, if your were to add background checks for all sales and limiting the number of AR type weapons that can be manufactured thus limiting the number in circulation, we would have some common ground. We don't need millions more AR-type weapons in circulation for the simple reason, trying to control them in ten years I would guess would be impossible.Reply |
By any and all means, Richurd, lets limit the number of AR15s that can be manufactured, thus doubling the cost of them the day after the legislation is passed, and at the same time, reducing crime by less than 3%. Did you know that AR15s are used in less than 3% of all gun crimes? Is this the best you've got?Reply |
Some information,knowing the situation is not going to change and the real problem is the nut behind the trigger. Anyway, the term "assault rifle" comes from the German Sturmgewehr SIG 44. It was copied by the Russians and became the AK-47 (and as an aside they copied the German Leica and the US P-40 and in Soviet films they are Russian inventions.) Anyway, the Russian training was not very high quality because the troops were mostly illiterate, so they were armed so as to assault an objective, spraying in every direction. The Russians did not expect them to come back. The US system of individual replacement was not followed by the Russians. New people formed new units and they followed the old decimated units into battle. If anyone did try to come back they were probably shot. Anyway (again) the physical difference is that the assault rifle could withstand many bullets in a short time without overheating, as opposed to the ordinary rifle. So "detuning" one to semi-automatic does not remove the capability of high rates of fire (as fast as one can pull the trigger.) I can attest that the US M-16 can fire as fast in semi-automatic as a Garand M-1 or M1A1 carbine in full automatic. But the Garands will overheat very quickly, the M-16, probably not. It is also very easy to convert a semi-automatic M-16 or AR-15 back to the full automatic mode. So easy I do not write about it. But the crazy people who do crazy things don't need advanced weapons training. The gun is deadly enough, without any training. That was the original purpose - to make an otherwise poor soldier a killing machine - and remember the Russians did not want the soldier to return, and most crazy people, who do crazy things, seem to kill themselves. So restricting weapons seems not the point, and I hope this helps.Reply |
The gun chatter nonsence is all moot very soon. New home made 150W PULSED laser that runs off jeep cigaret lighter... you DON'T want to 'see it'. EZ to make ... and a terrible weapon. So are they going to start banning lasers? How about gasoline cocktails? Semi automatic cross bows? You see guns aren't really the problem... ARE THEYReply |
Whats wrong with the conclusions of several of the last half dozen posts? "So restricting weapons seems not to be the point,""doesn't reduce crime,"focus should be locking up criminals," "criminal use of guns by the people who should not have access to them." What's wrong? There all bits and pieces of NRA talking points. Banning assault type weapons completely or at least limiting the number that can be manufactured is a must do now. We don't need millions more than the 2 ½+ million AR-15 type weapons already in circulation for the simple reason, trying to control them in ten years would be impossible.Reply |
Dickie, did you not hear? less than 3% of gun crimes are committed with AR15s. Your life's work is essentially a waste...Reply |
Richurd, did you not hear? less than 3% of gun crimes are committed with AR15s. Your life's work campaigning against the AR15 is essentially a waste...so sadReply |
Paddy, could it be that Richard's goal for eliminating the AR is manifested by his love and ownership of the SKS? We all understand that everything the democrat socialist are proposing nationally is already in place in California.Reply |
The new gun bill would stop the sale, transfer, importation and manufacture of more than 100 specialty firearms and certain semi-automatic rifles, as well as limiting magazines to 10 rounds or less. The restrictions would not apply to guns owned before enactment of any law. Bill proposal exempts from the ban more than 2,000 models used for hunting or sporting purposesReply |
Wallet found in burnt out cabin, apparently surviving the inferno that charred Dorner's human remains. HEREReply |
Does anybody else find it odd that the "body" of Dorner was charred, and the cabin burned down, but they found his wallet with an ID card that survived?..... ???Reply |
Paddy, given the comments of law enforcement over the police scanner, there is lots to wonder about.Reply |
Paddy: The survival of the ID is not at all odd. For over 11 years we've known that a document can survive raging infernos capable of bringing down 110 story steel structures. Unfortunately, man himself is less durable.Reply |

Dorner "cause of death unclear" - HEREReply |
- Evelyn, Paddy – A probable (easy really) explanation - An ID inside a wallet in a back pocket of a body lying face up is protected. Straining to construct a conspiracy is not helpful.Reply |
Asking, "Was Chris Dorner NDAA'd?" is a waste of breath and good monitor ink. Dorner was a kook nutburger. end of story - LINK - Court papers from 2006 show that Dorner requested a restraining order against a woman he had dated for six weeks after he said she posted his LAPD badge number and trash-talked about him on a website called dontdatehimgirl.com. - "Just be careful because this guy is a police officer and he will probably think that he can get away with anything. ... If you value your sanity, stay away from this guy."Reply |
PS - This Dorner conspiracy/NDAA/victim crap is about as helpful as that Russian who is asserting that the Russian meteorite is a secret U.S. weapon. The internet can be a sewer!!Reply |
Former LAPD cop Michael Ruppert believed Christopher Dorner. - HERE - "From my own experience as a Los Angeles police Officer and deep familiarity with both LAPD culture and history, I can say that with regards to Christopher Dorner's allegations regarding internal corruption, favoritism, racism and concealment of excessive force, I believe him 100%." … "This man needs to be brought in alive and he needs to be heard." He never got a chance. LAPD cops killed him. Ruppert predicted they would. They wanted him silenced. A SWAT team may have gunned him down. They surrounded his cabin. Gas was pumped in. LAPD cops made reference to "burners." One voice said "We're going to burn him out. Another shouted "f...king burn this motherf...king house down." One more said "Seven burners were deployed and we have a fire." … Voices were loud enough for CBS affiliate KCAL 9 to broadcast them live on air. Immediately the audio feed was cut. … They set Dorner's cabin ablaze. Fire department units were ordered not to respond. Dorner was incinerated. He never had a chance. Hours later his charred body was found. He expected to die. He said so on Facebook. Different versions of his manifesto exist. It denounces dozens of LAPD cops for corruption, racism and violence. On February 7, two Riverside police officers were shot. One died. Dorner was blamed. A massive manhunt ensued. High-tech surveillance and indiscriminate shootings followed. Rogue cops don't apologize for wrongdoing. Dorner knew how they operated. He went public explaining it. Doing so marked him for death. LAPD officials wanted him silenced. Extrajudicial killing is policy. Dead men tell no tales. … In 2007, [Dorner] witnessed white training officer, Sgt. Teresa Evans, kick an unarmed/handcuffed person of color in the stomach and face. He reported what he saw. He was fired for doing so. An LAPD Board of Rights said he lied.Reply |

"The complaint against David Yaffe, Lee Baca, and others involved in the case of Richard Fine was filed with the US Attorney Office in LA. The US Attorney refused to take any action, or even confirm receipt of the complaints." ... Judge Yaffe, who had reviewed Christopher Dorner's appeal on his dismissal from LAPD, resigned on corruption charges.Reply |
LINK - Michael C. Ruppert - Until 2006, he published and edited From The Wilderness, a newsletter and website covering a range of topics including (international) politics, the C.I.A., peak oil, civil liberties, drugs, economics, corruption and 9/11 conspiracy theories. He is also the author of Crossing The Rubicon: The Decline of the American Empire at the End of the Age of Oil and was the subject of the 2009 documentary film Collapse - CRITICS - Columnist Norman Solomon has argued that Ruppert has a flawed analytical model. "Some of the problem is in how he characterizes news reports. These citations can be narrowly factual yet presented in a misleading way. Yes, such-and-such newspaper reported that thus-and-so claim was made by so-and-so. The paper reported on the claim, but that doesn't mean the claim is true." - Columnist David Corn has also criticized Ruppert's methodology, and dismisses the idea that conspiracy theorizing is useful: "In fact, out-there conspiracy theorizing serves the interests of the powers-that-be by making their real transgressions seem tame in comparison." Ruppert responded with an open public letter to Corn saying that Corn is not able to disprove any of Ruppert's claims.Reply |

"A big part of America died this week when the LAPD appointed themselves the judge, jury and executioners of Dorner. Somehow it feels like a part of the Constitution died as well."Reply |
Evelyn, I know that it is a minor detail, but the source of your quote is mistaken in one small detail. It was not the LAPD. In line with the "incident command" structure it was Santa Barbara County running the show. For example, had Dorner been found in this county the incident would have been run by El Dorado County. Turf/ego matters – especially in law enforcement. If you are asserting that the big bad LAPD was bossing little Santa Barbara you should provide some evidence. Such unsubstantiated/false charges against an individual could have a pack of lowyers at your door. LINK - SAN BERNARDINO SHERRIFReply |
excuse me! - San Bernardino County - not Santa Barbara (or Los Angeles County)Reply |
all those SOCAL counties look th' same ya know . . .Reply |
1:35 PM PT — Police could be heard screaming at a reporter to "get the f*ck out" of the way during a gunfight with Dorner. 1:48 PM PT — It was confirmed that two officers are down with no word to the extent of their injuries. Dorner is said to be tossing smoke grenades at police. 2:52 PM PT — TMZ learned the L.A.P.D. SWAT team is being airlifted to the scene to assist. - - - LINK - a timelineReply |
Phil: Checking various reports it does appear LAPD became sort of a generic reference for parts of the operation. Indeed, it is the San Bernadino Sheriff who apparently takes credit for bringing the manhunt to its culmination. Perhaps a similar error of attribution was made regarding the police scanner audio in which"LAPD" (San Bernardino?) officers are heard saying: "We're gonna go forward with the plan with the burner." "Like we talked about." "Burners deployed, and we have a fire." Repeated by dispatcher: "Burners deployed, and we have a fire." "(unintelligible)...mission success." "We have fire in the front. He might come out the back." "Looks like it's starting to collapse." "We're gonna start bringing fire in, about 200 yards out." "Break 61 Lincon, 61 Charlie, you ready for fire?" ********** Which county should be credited?Reply |
Police SCANNER audio, cabin fire.Reply |
San Bernardino ran the operation. It is hard to find direct LAPD participation though they may have. LAPD were at the airport. The initial/major gun battle was exclusively DFG & San Bernardino.Reply |
SCANNER police audio ordering cabin burntReply |
SCANNER "Burn that motherf**** out"Reply |
suggest we consider possibility of radio hack - it IS possible and considering the energy of ANONYMOUS worthy of considerationReply |
My error was in not checking out an article TITLE such as "LAPD Say They Didn't Deliberately Burn Dorner Cabin Down" (HERE) when in the contents we find the San Bernardino Sheriff being quoted. When the lawyers hunt me down for making "unsubstantiated charges" I intend to plead mitigating circumstances.Reply |

Central and northeast Nebraska's snowfall Tuesday is occurring about on schedule for that area.
Ken Dewey, an applied climatologist with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, has pulled the maps from the Midwest Regional Climate Center that chronicle the season's typical first snowfall.
Central and northeast Nebraska tend to see their first snowfall in the first two weeks of November. That's certainly the case this year, with Tuesday's Nov. 5 snow.
On average, Omaha sees its first measurable snow during the last week of November.
The deadly blizzard that struck northwest Nebraska in early October was unusual, as is clear on these maps.
In that part of the state, the average first snow typically occurs a week or two later in October. Many of the cattle that died would have lived if the storm hadn't come through so early.
