Fastest Route to Single Booting Linux on the new 2009 Mac MiniPosted: March 30th, 2009 | Author: jwiltse | Filed under: Linux, Mac, Tech | Tags: apple, centos, centos on mac, debian, debian mac, grub, install centos mac, install centos mac mini, Linux, linux on a mac, linux on mac, linux on new mac mini, Mac, mac mini, single boot, single boot linux new mac mini | 3 Comments »
See IMPORTANT NOTES section below… there's currently a catch with rebooting….
If you find a fix for the reboot issue, please leave a comment (that will email me)..
Special thanks to Victor Costan http://blog.costan.us
Step 1 – Get your linux on the HD
-Power On / Insert Linux Install Disk With Kernel 2.6.26 or higher / Power Off
-Power On / Wait 4 Seconds / Hold "c" key to boot from DVD drive
-I couldn't get linux to work after deleting the EFI partition, so don't.
-Get to your distro's partitioning utility and delete the main MAC partition
-After deleting the big partition, create your linux partitions
-If you delete the EFI partition on accident, the Leopard install will fix it
-Direct the installer to put GRUB on the first sector of your /boot partition
-Install whatever other options you want and let installer run
-Remove Linux Install Disk / Insert MAC OSX Install Disk / Reboot
Step 2 – Tell MAC's Open Firmware What To Do
-Power On / Wait 4 Seconds / Hold "c" key to boot from DVD drive
-Get to "Terminal" under "Utilities" on MAC Installation Setup
-Type the following command to determine how your /boot partition was identified
diskutil list
-Type the following command to set that partition as bootable (mine was disk0s2)
bless –device /dev/disk0s2 –setboot –legacy –verbose
-After these steps, linux will boots fine but when trying to reload it will hangs (more likely the shutdown process hangs). It appears to require a hard reset at this time…bummer.
-Earlier Kernels (Such as 2.6.18 in Centos 5.2 and lower) may install successfully but do not properly load drivers for all the hardware once installed.
Hold "c" key to boot from DVD drive
Hold "F12" key to eject the DVD drive
Hold "ALT" to emulate the option key (not used in this procedure)
Debian Success Documented here (by Thomas Glanzmann): http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0903.1/01828.html
Discussion and bless command from Veiho in Ubuntuforums : http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-493393.html

Nasdaq to Compensate Firms for Botched Facebook IPO
Nasdaq will compensate firms for qualifying claims related to Facebook's botched May 2012 initial public offering, the group says.
Nasdaq will compensate firms for qualifying claims related to Facebook's botched May 2012 initial public offering, the group says.
Twitter is sued for $124 million by two companies that said the social media darling defrauded it into pushing forward with a doomed private sale of its shares.
Institutional investors who met with Twitter this week express optimism about its IPO and see little sign of last year's Facebook IPO debacle.
A Wall Street regulator caps the amount makers can recover after suffering losses from Nasdaq's botched handling of Facebook's IPO at $41.6 million.
Twitter announced on Twitter that it plans to go public.
Dell shareholders are expected to approve a $25 billion deal to allow CEO Michael Dell to take the PC-maker private, after months of haggling.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg once advocated for businesses to stay private for as long as possible, but having gone through the IPO process, he's had a change of heart.
All trading on Nasdaq, the second-biggest U.S. stock exchange, was halted Thursday after a technical problem. But the reopening of trading went relatively well.
Some investors thought Facebook shares were overpriced when the stock went public last year, but eventually the social network showed its value.
Facebook debuted 14 months ago at $38 a share, and promptly plummeted in value. Today, it finally clawed its way back to its original price, cheering early investors.
CEO Mark Zuckerberg faces a series of angry comments at Facebook's first shareholders meeting, as investors lined up to question the company's dismal stock performance.
Nasdaq agrees to pay $10 million to settle civil charges stemming from mistakes made during Facebook's initial public offering last year.
The list of start-ups valued at over $1 billion just keeps getting longer, and not just due to the potential of their cool tech. They're also getting a big boost from the Fed.
The SEC has approved a Nasdaq proposal to create a $62 million fund to compensate those who lost money due to trading errors during Facebook's IPO. But who will benefit?
The Securities and Exchange Commission approves a plan to compensate market makers who lost money in last year's botched Facebook IPO.
Last year, Facebook went public and brought in record profits exceeding $1.1 billion. And yet, not only will the ubiquitous social network not be paying any taxes, it will be getting a huge tax break.
Investor uncertainty, the fiscal cliff debate, and the misadventures of some high-profile initial public offerings last year have led to a lack of new issues recently. But that's about to change.
If you'd told investors what was going to happen in 2012 and asked how the stock market would perform, few would have predicted a good year. But that's just what they got.
The U.S. stock market has been on a bull run since early 2009. At the same time, individual investors have been pulling billions of dollars out of stocks each year.
By Svea Herbst-Bayliss BOSTON (Reuters) - Morgan Stanley, the lead underwriter for Facebook Inc's initial public offering, will pay a $5 million...
Facebook just keeps on getting bigger. Despite the negative emotions generated by its IPO, the leading social network revealed on Thursday that it now has more than a billion active monthly users.
Facebook hit a new low of $18.75 before bouncing back to $19.01 - down 4 cents in morning trading Monday. The stock has not surpassed its $38 IPO price since its first trading day.
Did you lose money on last month's Facebook IPO? How about on Groupon or Zynga? Perhaps something seemed a little off when you logged on to your brokerage account and either couldn't place an order or couldn't get confirmation that your order was placed? Congress couldn't care less.
After Facebook's belly flop of an IPO, the next major dot-com slated to go public -- popular travel website Kayak -- is slowing down. And its not just Kayak: Twitter, LivingSocial and several others are now in an IPO holding pattern too.
With a disappointing finish on Thursday, the stock market closed what was by some measures its worst month in two years. Over five dismal weeks, Facebook fizzled, a debt crisis in Europe loomed, and nobody was in the mood to buy.
A lot of ordinary investors lost money in the Facebook IPO. But the true tragedy relates to the crazy expectations that many people had about the IPO in the first place, and how it may impact their retirement planning.
The ongoing saga of Facebook's post-IPO tumble is a classic, Greek-style tragedy of hubris, epic overreach, and equally epic failure, and the media can't get enough of it -- even though large chunks of it are essentially fictional.
Reports began to surface on Monday indicating that Facebook was looking to get over its post-IPO blues by snapping up the Israeli-based company that matches faces in digital photographs to the names of existing friends.
With Facebook shares Tuesday morning trading $7.80 below their offering price, mom-and-pop investors alone are out more than $800 million. And however much we've lost so far -- get ready to double it.
First, we learned Facebook's IPO underwriters had cut their estimates for the company in the middle of the IPO roadshow. What we didn't know was why. Now we know. The analysts cut their estimates because a Facebook exec who knew the business was weak told them to.

I think that, so far, Seedfolks is a great book. I like how the book has a lot of different people and how they changed. I think Seedfolks is about how something small, like starting a garden in the ciy, can change so many people's lives. The activities I did so far, based on Seedfolks, are planting tomato seeds in Mrs. Koster's class, making flowers out of recycled cans in Mr. Howard's class, and listening to music from different countries that the characters came from and trying to match the music we heard to the right country. My favorite activity so far is making the flowers out of recycled cans because it's amazing how many different creative things you can do with one little can. I liked every activity I've done and I'm excited to see how our tomato plants turn out!

Looks very promising.
I'll update this tomorrow, when I have some more sleep, but for now, Vahren is a enclosed world, where only the land inside the great mountain range is safe, everything outside of said range is so vicious, large, and destructive that it is nigh impossible to live out there.
Original drawing on paper:
What I've done so far:
(The long rectangle will eventually be a large wall blocking off that section of the savage wilds from the civilized/peaceful area.)
This is for a Savage Worlds campaign i'm running with a few friends.
More details will come, as soon as I have the time.
Looks very promising.
Very Impressive! I like the ranges, and the hills. They comein very naturely. I am already sure to rep it when its finished.
Hopefully I can make it even better
Lookin' good, man. Great perspective.
I've decided to go with a different kind of river, more... Uhh, realistic, and less cartoony, I suppose.
I've also begun fiddling around with colors, along with forests, as you can see.
(Note: I didn't upload the whole map, as it's too large, so, you get to see the Valley (And some other pats of the map) that is home to the great Vampiric Dynasty, whom once nearly ruled the world.)
I have a minor nitpick, but it's one that you may already be aware of and will clean up in the next stage(s): The 'back' part of the forests - the side that faces away from the viewer. Right now, the length of the sketched in trees at the forest border (for lack of a better description) is the same as the front side, giving each woodland the illusion that it is a fence or a hollow bowl. Does that make sense? And like I said, it may be corrected in later stages anyway.
I agree with the others. This one has a lot of potential and looks good so far! Have you thought to add a couple of small lakes along the rivers?
Looks good so far. looking forward to see how it progress
It's looking good, I have a question about the river that drains the central valley. It looks like it forks and drains into two drainages (one to the east and one to the south).

I don't think there is a general guideline for this. It also depends on the purpose of the map, I think.
I'm in the same position as you: I have a large-scale 'overall' map, and I am going to map out specific parts in ever increasing detail as I go along. I intend to use the same style for all the maps, to create a unified 'feel' of the (series of) maps.
However, if the characters get handed a map by an NPC, I think I'd use one of the hand-drawn styles instead of the default (detailed) style.

2015 UNHCR subregional operations profile - North America and the Caribbean
| Overview |
In Canada, UNHCR cooperates with government authorities and engages with civil society and refugee advocacy groups, which are particularly active in promoting resettlement opportunities and refugee protection.
Cooperation with various sectors of the United States Government and judiciary, as well as with civil society, aims to improve international protection standards for people of concern. The interpretation of the refugee definition across national jurisdictions, the promotion of alternatives to detention for asylum-seekers, and the strengthening of protection safeguards for interdictions at sea and apprehension at land-border crossings will remain the main focus for UNHCR.
There have been increasing arrivals at the United States' southern border of children from Central America, both unaccompanied and with families. Many have fled violence at the hands of transnational criminal organizations and other armed groups. UNHCR will offer support to ensure that: those in need of international protection can access territory; norms and standards in reception and detention facilities, as well as alternatives to detention, are promoted; and arrivals receive adequate information about their rights and access to legal representation.
States and territories in the Caribbean are confronted with an increasingly complex phenomenon of mixed migration. The management of these mixed migratory flows poses significant challenges to many of the small island and coastal States in the region, not least due to the absence of functioning refugee status determination (RSD) systems in most cases and limited resource capacities. Many countries resort to systematic detention and deportation, without providing protection-sensitive measures that would allow for the identification of people in need of international protection and effective safeguards against refoulement. Local integration opportunities remain limited, as there are only very few countries that grant residency permits and/or work authorization to refugees. In many locations refugees are in need of UNHCR assistance for their subsistence.
In September 2014,at the Caribbean regional consultation held in the Cayman Islands within the framework of the Cartagena+30 process, further progress was made in the protection agenda in the region. Several forward-looking initiatives were discussed, including the creation of a regional consultative process to facilitate data collection and information sharing on mixed migration; the exchange of best practices in refugee protection; and discussion around other common refugee-related issues. Other issues for discussion include: establishing a regional refugee transit centre to transfer those in need of resettlement; enhancing regional capacity to support people of concern, and create or consolidate RSD processes; as well as presenting alternatives to detention and measures to facilitate local integration.
The Dominican Republic adopted legislation in 2014 that attempts to provide a solution for the tens of thousands of Dominicans, the majority of whom are of Haitian descent, who were deprived of their nationality as a direct result of a 2013 Constitutional Court ruling. Gaps in its implementation may limit its impact on solutions that would restore nationality, with the risk of leaving these Dominicans with undetermined nationality.
| Response and implementation |
UNHCR's overarching objectives in Canada relate to its supervisory role in processing asylum requests and seeking the highest protection standards. UNHCR supports an increase in referrals to Canada and the expansion of its resettlement programme as a durable solution. In particular, the Office will follow up with Canadian authorities on the implementation of the various aspects of the 2012 asylum reform and will strive to enhance refugees' integration prospects. Continued advocacy on alternatives to detention for people of concern will remain a priority to further align Canada's current detention policy with international standards.
In the United States, UNHCR strives to maintain support for its global programmes. The Office will also focus on promoting a favourable protection environment for all people of concern. Particular attention will be paid to access to territory and appropriate procedures, as well as alternatives to detention and the integration of resettled refugees. The Office will continue offering support to the authorities for the adequate protection of all unaccompanied children arriving from Central America and Mexico that may need international protection.
UNHCR will work with Caribbean Governments to promote: access to territory and protection against refoulement, with rapid deployment of UNHCR and partner staff when countries experience a significant influx of asylum-seekers; access to fair and effective RSD procedures, including the phased adoption and implementation of effective RSD systems in key countries; alternatives to detention and the monitoring of detention conditions; durable solutions for people of concern, including strategic resettlement; and the prevention of statelessness and protection of the stateless.
Addressing statelessness in the Caribbean is also a primary focus of UNHCR's strategy for the biennium. Partnerships and joint efforts to: find solutions for those individuals with undetermined nationality in the Dominican Republic, or address the likelihood of individuals of Haitian descent becoming stateless in other parts of the Caribbean are particularly important to the Office. Working to align nationality laws with international standards to eliminate the causes of statelessness is an issue throughout Caribbean States. To build on momentum gained, UNHCR will strengthen its Caribbean Unit in Washington and consider establishing a presence in the Bahamas (to cover the northern part of the Caribbean) and Trinidad and Tobago (to cover the southern part of the region).
In the Dominican Republic, UNHCR will ensure that people of concern can access the territory and asylum procedures. Limited relief for education and medical and material assistance will be ensured through partners for the most vulnerable asylum-seekers and refugees, while access to employment and self-reliance will facilitate refugees' local integration. The Office will also focus on solutions, including voluntary repatriation and resettlement. UNHCR will also continue advocating an adequate solution to the country's statelessness population.
The organization's strategy in Haiti will support the ratification of the Statelessness Conventions and the national legislative process on the nationality law and civil registry reform, and address administrative gaps in civil registration and documentation, while promoting increased public awareness around the risks of statelessness. UNHCR will provide the authorities with technical assistance for the adoption of asylum legislation. The most vulnerable asylum-seekers will also receive assistance.
| Financial information |
UNHCR's budget requirements in this subregion have increased from more than USD 17.6 million in 2011 to 21.9 million in 2015.
The 2011 budget was needed to support those internally displaced by the Haiti earthquake. The total 2015 requirements are based on: the Caribbean's renewed engagement in protecting and finding solutions for those travelling in maritime mixed migratory flows; and support for the protection of those displaced from Central America by transnational criminal organizations and other armed groups, who have reached the southern border of the United States.

The teenagers -- Tyrell Smith, Immanuel Swann, Deon Jefferson and Gary Maye -- are charged as adults.
Three are charged with the armed robbery of Griffin near a gas station in the 1800 block of Adams Mill Road NW, less than a mile from the Metro station.
The fourth is charged with the armed robbery of another victim on the lower platform of the Woodley Park Metro station. That crime immediately preceded the murder of Mr. Griffin.

Middle school principal Robb Smith said the schools had power back Thursday and were back to normal. He said Harmony Elementary, on the same campus with the two other schools, was unaffected.
Students at the two schools will make up the day by attending Feb. 18, which they originally had off for the Presidents' Day holiday.

Irene is being retired from the list of storm names because the 2011 hurricane killed 49 people and caused more than $15 billion in damage.
A report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says the name will be replaced by Irma. Irene was retired Friday from the official list of Atlantic Basin tropical storm names by the World Meteorological Organization's hurricane committee.
The report says storm names are reused every six years unless retired for causing considerable casualties or damage. Irene is the 76th name to be retired from the Atlantic list since 1954.
Five people were killed in the Dominican Republic after Hurricane Irene stormed through the Caribbean last August. Three died in Haiti. And 41 died in the U.S. when Irene barreled up the Eastern Seaboard.

Vol State Honored For Service Learning and Community Service Projects
Submitted on March 01, 2010 at 9:10 AM
Volunteer State Community College has been named to the 2009 President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll, the highest federal recognition a college or university can receive for its commitment to volunteering, service-learning and civic engagement.
The Corporation for National and Community Service, which administers the annual Honor Roll award, recognized more than 700 colleges and universities for their impact on issues from poverty and homelessness to environmental justice. On campuses across the country, thousands of students joined their faculty to develop innovative programs and projects to meet local needs using the skills gained in their classrooms.
"The Vol State program of service learning and community service means that we are adding community elements to academic programs," said service learning director Dr. Rick Parrent. "This recognition shows the number of community projects our faculty and staff are involved in, and have been involved in over the last several years."
College students make a significant contribution to the volunteer sector; in 2009, 3.16 million students performed more than 300 million hours of service, according to the Volunteering in America study released by the Corporation. Vol State students have worked in secondary school classrooms, helping teachers find new ways to improve learning. Ophthalmic students have taken their classroom skills to Guatemala to fit needy people with glasses as part of a mission trip organized by the Hendersonville Rotary Club. Students have built displays and experiments to engage kids during the annual Science and Math expo. Classes across campus participate in everything from tutoring immigrants to communication projects as part of service learning.

Today and tomorrow, some of the top squash players in the world will be at Bates College in Lewiston for a tournament designed to showcase a sport that historically has been played only at elite private schools and clubs. Squash, insist its advocates, is growing beyond the confines of its blue-blood origins, and is finding its way into public schools and inner cities.
Okay lets see a show of hands. How many of you reading this right now have ever set foot on a squash court? Now, how many of you attended a private prep school, or exclusive college in the Northeast? Twenty years ago, those would have the same hands, but now?
"There still remains a little bit of the prep school, Ivy league mentality in squash, but the game is moving to out to the suburbs and into the cities to public schools and its really exciting for the game of squash," said Pat Cosquer, head men's and women's squash coach at Bates.
Cosquer has embraced this new diversity, and brought in players from all over the world from countries where squash, a game invented at the Harrow School in England, had been firmly established.
"So in many of the places where we find our students squash to them is like soccer or baseball to us so them when they come here, and see that you can only play squash in a handful of places, its pretty surprising pretty shocking to them," he said.
On one of the walls of the 7,500-square-foot Bates squash center, are the flags of nations represented on past teams. Bates has had more than 50 international players since the program started in 1985, and currently has players from 10 different countries.
Myriam Kelly is co-caption for women's squash at Bates. When she arrived in the US from Honduras with her family, she was not allowed to stray far from home. So, as an athletically inclined kid, joining a soccer team was out of the question, but then in middle school, she was introduced to squash in an after school program.
"So mainly because of that, I learned English by hanging out with kids who only spoke English not just my neighbors who only spoke Spanish," she said. "I like sports, I loved it, the competitiveness of it."
The game also got a boost by Forbes magazine, which back in the '80s declared squash "the fittest sport." By some estimates, a player can burn up to 1,500 calories an hour. The rules require some study, but the basics, Cosquier explains, are fairly simple.
"It's a four-walled court, a little bit like a racquet ball court," Cosquier said. "21 by 32 feet, the ball must hit the front wall, and much like tennis your opponent has to retrieve the ball before it bounces twice."
As Cosquer and Kelly demonstrate with a sustained series of volleys, it's immediately clear that the potential for one player striking another with a racquet is very high.
"I have a personal experience with that one," Kelly said. "About three years a go I was playing this kid and he swung and hit me below the eye. It swelled up, but for moments like that we have something called 'let' where you stop a point in case you might injure another person.".
Keith Shortall: "Is it etiquiette or is it in the rules about staying out of our opponent's way?"
Pat Cosquer: "It's a gentleman's game. It's self-refereed and there's a general understanding that if the ball bounced twice and your opponent did't see it you're supposed to call it on yourself if you get in his way you're supposed to play a 'let' and and do the point over. So, sportsmanship still remains in squash since the first time it was ever played."
The two-day Bobcat classic pro squash tour event begins today at the Bates squash center in Lewiston. The quarter-finals are scheduled to begin at 6:00 pm.

Trucks At Bonneville Speedway - Salty DogsWritten by on February 3, 2012 Trucks Hauling at Bonneville
Bonneville—it's holy ground for us. If you're a hot rodder, Bonneville Speedway's history is a deep part of our culture, and a pilgrimage there should be on your To-Do list, whether you're a participant or a spectator. While it's usually associated with cars, and even motorcycles, if you're a truck enthusiast, there's plenty of eye-candy to be had both in the pits and in the spectator areas.
Classes at Bonneville are based on two criteria: the body (with sub-categories for modified or production bodies), and the engine class. The Pickup Truck class is for '46 and later American-made trucks, while Mid/Mini Pickup Truck is for America and foreign mid/mini-sized trucks '72 and newer. Engine classes allowed in the Pickup class are 184ci to 501ci and larger (E-class through AA-class), and four vintage engine classes covering flatheads and inline sixes. Also, included is the Mid/Mini class 46ci through 372.99ci (I-class through C-class). They are further divided into blown and un-blown classes, the "blown" covering both turbo and superchargers. There are also diesel truck categories for everything from highway haulers to 1-ton pickups.
The Southern California Timing Association's rulebook is anything but easy to read—you'll wear it out trying to understand what's allowed in which classes, but it's fun reading nonetheless. But be advised, if you think you're going to just go out there with your truck and "see what it'll do," think again. Your truck will fall into one of the Engine/Body classes, and not only must your truck comply with the generic competition vehicle safety rules all vehicles must adhere to, but it must be built to comply with the safety requirements for the record in your class. In other words, if the class your truck would fit in has an existing record of 210mph, you need the full roll cage, seat, window nets, parachute, roof rails, fire bottle system, and everything else you'd need to run that speed; your truck must be built as though it was going to go after the record, not a one-time wind-out.
But don't let that stop you from making the pilgrimage to the Great White Wonderland that's the Bonneville Salt Flats. You can drive there from just about anywhere in the country in two or three days, so it's really not as far as most people think—load the bed up with supplies and hit the road. Hang out for a few days feeling the salt crunch under your feet and the sound of raw, unadulterated horsepower from every imaginable kind of engine you can imagine, then head home and start making plans for next year. Because once you've been on the salt, you'll be back. ct

Larry Lancaster of Payette, Idaho, got bit by the salt and converted his drag truck to land speed racing, running in the E/PP class. He runs a destroked 267ci small-block Chevy with a 327 crank for 254 cubes. In his second year on the salt, he's gone 132mph, beating his own 130.6 record. He still races it at the drags, running low 10s with a 540ci big-block Chevy.Houseman-Fioress Racing slammed this '49 Stude together in just five months. Part of their plan for getting the truck low included a solid-mount front axle—that's right, no springs!The Houseman-Fioress truck runs a Sharp-equipped, mechanical-injected, flathead Ford, putting it in the XF/Modified Pickup class, which has a 112mph record.We're not sure what was cooler—Tim McMaster's Y-block powered '62 unibody racer, or his tow rig with the period-perfect camper. The roof and sides are wider than the bed, and raise up to uncover the sidewalls of the camper, making it tall enough to walk in. Watch for a feature on his uni in an upcoming issue.One of our favorite trucks of the week was Danny Smith's camper. His father-in-law worked for Fireball Trailers, and built the rig in his yard in 1987. Powering the beast is a 472-inch Cadillac engine, backed by a TH400 trans. With more living space than our first apartment, Danny says the truck "might get 7mpg."It's true, Stovebolts really do run forever. The 235 in Sidney's bus has been together with parts from Clifford, for 30 years. Billy told us the glass packs were put on at the same time! It sounds great.Daryl Quiring's dad bought this '66 Chevy new when Daryl was 7 years old, and it's been in the family since. Powered by a ZZ4 350 and 700-R4, Daryl brought his son Cameron to the Bonneville, and celebrated Cam's 10th birthday in style. Cameron not only loves the truck, but he's a rabid gearhead with a mind like a steel trap for details when it comes to hot rods.Billy Sidney has been coming up from Mexico to watch the races for 36 years. The '54 Chevy was originally a rural school bus.Phil Kluss had his rare '70 C-20 1-ton Longhorn-edition Chevy in the pits. He tells us that about 3,000 were built per year from '68-72, outfitted like their smaller 3/4-ton Camper Special brothers, but have the heavier suspension and a 6-inch extension at the front of the bed, so the tail gate could close with a camper in the bed.
The McGuire family's advance design '54/'55 truck was on the trailer before we got there, so we never got to hear it run, but would have loved to: XO/BMP indicates a blown OHV or Flathead inline, or non-Ford/Mercury Flathead V-8. Note that the truck has a 1-piece windshield; when you're racing something with the aerodynamics of a barn door, every little bit helps. They've owned the class record of 122.167 since 2009.The Salt Flats is just outside of Wendover, Utah, which historians and WWII buffs will recognize as the home of a very special Army air base: it was here that the 509th Composite Group refitted their B-29 Flying Fortresses and trained to drop Fat Man and Little Boy. This hangar housed the Enola Gay, and is undergoing restoration.We only saw this truck once, and we were going one way while it drove the other—the attention to detail, such as the rounded window frame corner and chrome rain gutter trim, makes this either one of the best four-door conversions we've ever seen, or a factory conversion we've heard about for railroads and forestry divisions. Note the Cummins "C" emblem on the front fender. This is exactly how we'd do a tow rig.We can't remember the last time we saw a Jeepster that wasn't painted red and being driven by a guy with a Fez in a parade! They're pretty good looking vehicles when they're not going 4mph behind a marching band. We really like the abbreviated roof.

Robert Higgs on the Consequences of Leviathan-sized Government
Recorded: Thursday, July 1, 2010
Senior Fellow Robert Higgs is interviewed here by Scott Horton on Antiwar.com Radio, warning those who long for total governmental and economic collapse to be careful what they wish for. Higgs also explains why federal spending cannot continue at the current record levels without a failure of the bond market. He further compares the military and economic over-extension of the Soviet Union prior to its collapse to the United States as a warning against rampant spending by the government.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) -- Cincinnati Bengals coach Marvin Lewis isn't the only one haunted by the "Immaculate Deflection."
So is Brandon Stokley, who caught the batted ball and raced 87 yards for the score with 11 seconds left, giving Denver an improbable 12-7 win at Cincinnati in 2009.
With the Bengals (3-4) hosting the Broncos (4-3) Sunday, Stokley said he, too, has bad dreams about that play in which he cradled cornerback Leon Hall's deflection at midfield and outraced linebacker Dhani Jones into the end zone. It was the longest winning play from scrimmage in the final minute of a game in NFL history.
Stokley ran parallel to the goal line to take precious seconds off the clock, but said he's had nightmares about fumbling or getting tackled, and so he'd do it differently today.

Benton, IL (KSDK) - Two citizens of Honduras were arraigned Friday for being in the United States illegally after they were previously removed by immigration officials.

If convicted, Sanchez-Aguilar could be sentenced to up to two years in prison, ordered to pay a $250,000 fine, and spend one year on supervised released.
Torres-Hernandez is facing up to 20 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, and three years of supervised release.

Juan Cortez
this wiki
Colonel Juan Garcia Cortez, also known as the Colonel, is a character in Grand Theft Auto series who appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City as a main character and mentioned briefly in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
Cortez is a retired colonel from a Central American country. He is the father of Mercedes Cortez.
He is a parody of Manuel Noriega, the military dictator of Panama and a major drug trafficker during the 1980s. He is voiced by Robert Davi, who also parodied Noriega as the antagonist of the James Bond film Licence To Kill (the first reference to that series since Grand Theft Auto: London 1969). He might also be a parody of Alejandro Sosa from Scarface.
Early Life
Juan Cortez was born in Central America. During his time in his home country, he survived thirty coups and nine death sentences, always managing to survive and get promoted. Cortez has a disliking of the French and accuses them of hypocrisy for stealing from poor nations for centuries. Cortez had his daughter Mercedes and is a widower. At some point, he became heavily involved in drug trafficking.
Cortez began his business interests in the United States by sending Gonzalez, his right hand man, as a representative in drug deals. Gonzalez stole some of Cortez' drugs to sell for a side profit, though he is more or less forgiven by Cortez and allied drug lord Ricardo Diaz (who threatens to kill Gonzales if he does not begin to tell Diaz about Cortez' future drug deals in the city). Cortez moved from his home country to Vice City by 1986, where he mainly lived on a large yacht. GTA Vice City's promotional website reveals that he is officially a cultural attaché "encouraging trade and improving our standing" between their countries, providing him a cover for his drug operations. He tells his countrymen that while he would rather be at his vineyard celebrating with them, "it is my curse to live in luxury in the United States" because he is serving a patriotic duty. He also reveals that aside from his yacht, he has a luxury villa in Vice City that his people pay for. The police have bugged it, which is probably why he lives on his yacht, also saying later that the yacht allows him to quickly relocate if he gets in too much trouble. Cortez is allowed leniency with the law because of diplomatic immunity, and also enjoys eating endangered species (for example, shark or tapia snout), considering it fine living.
Cortez enjoyed throwing parties on his yacht, which attracted very famous football players, rock stars and even politicians. After organizing a seemingly routine drug deal between Forelli mob members and the Vance brothers, it was ambushed with both $2 million and 20 kilos of cocaine stolen. Cortez meets the Forellis' representative, Tommy Vercetti, at one of his parties and begins trying to track down the thief. They begin by killing Gonzales, who had been telling too many people about the deal in the first place. He also recruits Vercetti's help to steal missile technology chips from the French government. Tommy meets Ricardo Diaz when he is sent to protect him, and later works for him as well, beginning to suspect that Diaz ambushed the deal.
When Cortez sees Tommy next, they share their suspicion that Diaz was responsible, though Cortez does not outright accuse Diaz because he considers him a "dangerous man". Cortez asks Tommy to steal a tank from a US military convoy and protect him from the French government while he takes his yacht out of the country. They say their goodbyes as close friends, Cortez giving Tommy a speedboat to return to shore, and asking him to look out for his daughter Mercedes.
In a month or two, Cortez calls Tommy (who had since killed Diaz and Forelli to become a powerful drug baron in his own right) fearing that she wanted to become a lawyer, which would bring shame to their family. Tommy reassures him that she definitely did not want to be a lawyer. Tommy did not tell Cortez that he had since allowed her to sleep with rock star Jezz Torrent and appear in a pornographic Steve Scott film alongside Candy Suxxx (ironically all three, Mercedes and Tommy were guests at a single one of his parties). In the same phone call, Cortez tells Tommy that he is in his home country and that the new minister of the interior whose father Cortez killed in a failed coup had arrived, so he needs to be polite to him. In another one of his phone calls, which was deleted from the game, Cortez tells Tommy that he fought in three revolutions, being promoted each time.

GTA Vice City Stories
- The Colonel's Coke (mentioned)
- In GTA San Andreas, there is an announcement on WCTR News in the early segments of the game that a former Latin American Dictator said that a government agency was supplying him with drugs. The Dictator might be Cortez, and the supplier might be Toreno, since he mentioned to Carl that he is "supplying overseas dictators and useful drug suppliers".
- Toreno mentioned he has agents and operations in Panama, probably connected with Cortez
