NO AUDIO --Longwood Florida 12/10 Two young thieves burglarized and then vandalized a Christmas display outside a Longood church and police were surprised to see on surveillance video who the suspects were. The church said the burglars took about $500 worth of props and tools, but the fact that they targeted the Christmas display at all is what has everyone so disappointed. The night vision cameras caught two women enter The Walk Through Bethlehem display in Longwood, but they weren't looking for the meaning of Christmas. With a flashlight in hand, video shows one of them point something out and they eventually walk off with the loot, including an expensive shofar. The church said the original purpose of the surveillance cameras was to give the congregation inside the church a glimpse on the big screen of what was going on outside at the presentation. But it was those same cameras that k

An FBI analyst has been arrested following an undercover Internet sting and charged with distributing child pornography.
Keith Michael Dietterle, of the District, is accused of sending the images and videos to a man he befriended in an Internet chat room often used by people who have a sexual interest in children. However, Dietterle's new online friend was a D.C. police detective.
Dietterle, 28, who worked out of the FBI Headquarters in downtown D.C., was arrested last week by members of a joint FBI-D.C. police child exploitation task force.
Dietterle has since been dismissed as a result of the investigation, FBI spokesman Paul Bresson said Tuesday. Bresson would not give specifics about Dietterle's job or how long he'd been employed by the FBI.
He is being held without bond until his detention hearing, set for Dec. 20 in federal court in the District. If convicted, Dietterle faces a sentence of five to 20 years in prison. His attorney, Edward Sussman, had no comment Tuesday.
According to charging documents:
Dietterle believed he was communicating with a man who was having sex with a 3-year-old nephew and his own 12-year-old daughter.
"So hot man ... how'd it start?" Dietterle wrote.
Over a period of two weeks, Dietterle sent the detective three images through Yahoo instant messenger of children being sexually abused by adults. He later sent instant messages of multiple links, which contained images of child pornography, including a 13-minute video, and six other videos of young children being sexually abused.
Dietterle and the detective arranged early last month to meet for the purpose of Dietterle to have sex with the detective's purported 3-year-old nephew.
The FBI analyst, however, emailed the next day and apologized for backing out.
"I'm so sorry I couldn't make Friday happen ... [things] got crazy at work and I ended up workin[g] 13 hours," he wrote, according to the charging documents.
Investigators said they obtained a subpoena on the email account used by the sender, which traced back to Dietterle at his home address on the 700 block of Ninth Street SE in Washington.

Two bands, one EP. Can you tell Alto Heceta from Speed of Sauce without the aid of the back of the CD? More importantly, do you even want to?
This split EP introduces both bands, but with only three songs for each, does not provide enough opportunity to get to know either band. Both have the same sort of mellowed-out, sensitive-boy rock feel to them, and the lead singers' voices are strangely similar. Instead of the split-disc making the two bands stand out as separate entities, this EP shows how closely the two resemble each other, perhaps with the thought that if you like one, you'll like the other. Unfortunately, you'll end up liking neither.
Alto Heceta / Speed of Sauce
Alto Heceta / Speed of Sauce
(Synaptic Tactic)
Alto Heceta takes the first half of the EP, opening with the unsurprising "Taking Down the Clocks", with singer Dino Balocchi mumbling his way through the lyrics over an assault of two chord guitar playing. The song has a certain catchy charm, but leaves the noticeable impression that it sounds like so many other songs you've heard before. "Roadtrips and Fingertips" slows down in an attempt to reveal the band's softer side, but the sleepy song meanders along a bit too earnestly without ever revealing why you should care. The spirited "So September" works a bit harder, with an energetic deluge of guitars and drums that alternates with quieter moments in a thoughtful pace. "So September" is the standout of Alto Heceta's tracks, and is the only one that gives the listener any sense of who the band actually is. Since it's the band's last song, however, the impression quickly fades.
Speed of Sauce's three tracks are a bit heavier and a bit darker, but still aren't too far from Alto Heceta's sound. The ridiculously titled "I'm not doing anything wrong; I just want to be able to lock my door, okay? Geez." opens the band's set and is a muddle of guitar, bass, and drums, with no one instrument standing out. It creates an initial impression of a band that is uncertain of what it is trying to do. "You Voice" shows Speed of Sauce to have a bit more potential, the song having a cautiously spooky quality to it with its cyclical arrangement and understated vocals. "My Awesome Riff", however, sends the band straight back into the qualities of generic modern rock, and the cutesy title does nothing to help them overcome this impression. Speed of Sauce has a bit of potential, but much like Alto Heceta, once it begins to be interesting, the EP is over.
Perhaps that was the intention, to inspire listeners to seek out more by either of these bands, but it winds up working against both. While it is easy to have a spark of interest in either, there is too little on this EP to showcase either Alto Heceta's or Speed of Sauce's true talents. If either band had the EP to itself, it would be more apparent where that band's strengths truly lay. Instead, with only three songs each, they both come across as indistinguishable alt-rock bands, and there's already enough of those. Why does anyone really need to go find new ones, much less two?

Military family deployed, forced to leave beloved dog behind
PACIFIC, Wash. -- KOMO News has received some pretty peculiar mail over the years, but I suspect the letter we recently received from "Calvin, The Big Red Dog" was our first canine correspondence.
Pacific resident Katie Garberding wrote to KOMO on behalf of Calvin, a 6-year-old Chesapeake Bay /Golden Retriever mix, asking for help reuniting him with his family.
Calvin belongs to Garberding's daughter Helen, whose military family moved to Belgium earlier this month. Despite the family's love for their dog, they could not afford to fly him overseas.
"A few weeks ago my family hugged me and kissed me as they said their goodbyes," Garberding wrote on behalf of Calvin. "I know that they didn't want to leave me."
Garberding is now collecting donations to send Calvin to Belgium. She says her grandchildren desperately miss him.
When 4-year-old Lily got sick after the flight to her new home, Garberding says she kept asking for the family dog.
"They're all devastated," Garberding says. "They're in a new country where they don't know anybody and they're not complete."
Garberding says Calvin will always have a home with her, but she can tell he misses his family. She says the retriever has "sad eyes" and often sits in her driveway watching cars pass by.
"It's almost like he's waiting for them to come get him," Garberding says.
Not unlike other military families, Helen's has moved around a lot. She and her husband Ryan enlisted in the Army in 1997. She left the service shortly after her 11-year-old son Thomas was born. The family has lived in New York, Texas and Germany while Ryan was deployed twice to Iraq and once to Afghanistan.
Three years ago Ryan was transferred to Joint Base Lewis-McChord and the family moved to Washington, Helen's home state. That's when Calvin came into their lives.
The dog had been living with Helen's sister Emily until she moved to an apartment that didn't allow pets. As soon as the Bingamans took Calvin in, Garberding says he adopted their three children as his "puppies."
"He is so gentle with the kids," Garberding says. "He is the rock that keeps them together."
But when Helen's family was preparing to move to Belgium, they learned it would costs between $1,100 and $2,000 to fly Calvin with them. Helen asked her mother to babysit Calvin until the family could save enough money to fly him over.
To help reunite the family, Garberding has created a savings account at Chase Bank to collect the funds needed to fly Calvin to Belgium and back again when the family returns to the United States in 3 years. She hopes to raise $4,000. Garberding says any funds that are not used on Calvin's flight will be donated to the Auburn Humane Society.
"We love him, but my grandkids need him," Garberding says. "They need as much consistency as possible."
Readers can help Calvin by contacting Garberding at email@example.com.

Another Mystery Car
What d'ya reckon to this one?
No clues yet.
Chris M.
Hi this looks like the last of the Isotta-Fraschini (Monterosa 8C) circa 1947/8
This looks like an Isotta - Fraschini (Monterosa 8C) circa 1947/48
Well done Dave, I didn't think anyone would spot that so quickly. It was a prototype with a V8 in the back (like a Tucker, or a Tatra?) shown in 1949 and the end of the road. Well nearly, Isotta Fraschini did carry on making diesel trucks.
Ok, I will dig out another oddity to post soon.
Chris M.
This one is obviously based on a Model T Ford, but since it was erroneously identified as a British version in one of the old Floyd Clymer books back in the fifties, it has always been referred to as such. Even a recent post on a Model T forum produced the same answers.
It does not look British; the 'drum' headlights are typical American style of the twenties, and the Town Car style body reminscent of the type used on more upmarket cars by the likes of Brewster.
Any clues?
Chris M.
How about this ...
Me circa 1952 sat in my Dad's car.
I always thought it was a Wolseley Hornet because I knew he had the use of one at around that time, but I haven't been able to find any pictures of Hornets with that kind of split 'half-light' window, nor any other car of the period, presumably 1930s.
I would be grateful if anyone could shed any light?
Any clues what this is? I don't know either, it was sent to me with some photos of Ford Model T variants, but those rear chassis rails with semi elliptic leaf springs rule out the Ford. Does the registration give any clue?

So many dead in Iraq
Brad DeLong has a good bit on the so-called debate over the estimate of the number of Iraqis killed as a result of the current war. One thing that he forgets to mention–and which I haven't heard anyone referring to–is the fact that the rate of deaths before the US invasion was already unnaturally high, due to the sanctions imposed on Iraq following the 1991 Gulf War. Regardless, if you have been wondering about some of the back and forth on the recent estimate of 650,000 war-related deaths, check it out.

Discussion in 'Texans Talk' started by DexmanC, Sep 25, 2012.
Times are looking good.
Texans rule!*
{* - at least for this week}
This makes me nervous
This is SO going to my head!!
It's nice, but it doesn't help us against the Titans this weekend. It won't buy us any points with those stupid blind unbelievably dumb replacement refs. If we beat the Titans this Sunday like we should, those horrid ESPN announcers will be insufferable duing our Monday night game.
Talk to me in January.
I just realized that both of our Monday Night games this year is away... that really suck
Five prime time games this year, and only one of those in Reliant.
Like many on this board, I've been watching this team since the inception. While this is the best I have seen the Texans, I can help the feeling the other shoe is going to drop. I'm glad to get the press, but I'm also a little nervous about it.
Soooo how much ARE we charging for bandwagon tickets now days??
...and be sure and tell these bozos our bandwagon tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE!
On the other hand, these refs are calling a lot of stuff for the home team and, I think, shifting the games slightly in the home team's favor.
5 of our next 7 games are home games.
So. Maybe. That could be a good thing.
At least that one game is on Sunday Night Football, and the first time
we get the best broadcast treatment at Reliant.
February 3, 2013?
We could have FLEX.
The Oilers POISONED this city.
I cannot believe the success of HOuston and only 1 sunday nite game.
What makes me even happier is that the rest of our division is within the bottom 8 teams....
Umm, we have two Sunday night games (Packers and @Bears), two Monday night games (@NYJ, @Patriots), and a Thanksgiving game at the Lions. I think that's a pretty good increase over last year's one prime time game on Thursday night football.
Thats too many Monday night games.... I need to get cable.
Better hurry up then, first Texans MNF game is October 8 @NYJ. Could always go to a bar and watch it though.
Separate names with a comma.

Charles Pierce: For Romney The Gloves Are OFF,and That's The Problem
For Romney, the Gloves Are Off, and That's the Problem
By Charles P. Pierce
at 10:38AM
There are, of course, a few problems here. The first one is that, when you start borrowing talking points the president wasn't "vetted" in 2008 from Princess Dumbass of the Northwoods, you're already running a few lengths below the intellectual Mendoza line. The second is logical; we already know far more about the president's relationship with both Tony Rezko and cocaine than we do about Willard Romney's relationship to the U.S. tax code for the years, say, 1999-2008. The third is strategic; if you have to remind people that you're preparing to get tough, you've pulled your own punch before throwing it. And the last one is perceptual; Willard Romney and most of his surrogates look utterly ridiculous in the role of political hatchetmen.
This is the new, tougher Willard Romney, who is so damned rugged that he's afraid of what the president's people might do with the information in his tax returns. This is the saloon brawler who won't shut up about all the mean things the president's "opposition research" might do to him. This is Willard Freaking Romney, for pity's sake, of whom an "adviser" warns the president:

About his youthful indiscretions that Obama has already admitted to and written about in his book? It's not like he tried to hide it and they're just now blowing the secret.
If they want to hit the gutter I say we start talking about Mormonism and the cult it really is. That ought to cause trouble with the evangelicals.

8. If Mittens wants to go after the president's
"youthful indescretions" then I think a re-examination of the "youthful hijinks" of the Mittster might well be in order.
You know, like assaulting another student because he was gay? Laughing after walking a blind teacher into a door? Pretending to be a state trooper so he could stop and harass women drivers in the middle of the night?
Many of us experimented with drugs when we were younger. Been there, done that. But how many of us were gay-bashers and prone to impersonating the police as a way to "meet" women?
By all means, Mittens, take off the mittens.
This is going to be sweet.

in the far right of his party. He is afraid to talk about his record as gov of Mass and won't talk about his wealth-building and tax-evading strategies at Bain. That the GOP put up such an unworthy man as their champion just shows how bankrupt is the Republican brand.

His piece on the (much-loathed by DUers and justifiably so ) S.E. Cupp was one of the great journalistic demolition jobs:
"In case you've missed it, MSNBC has compensated for the loss of Dylan Ratigan in the afternoon by moving Martin Bashir to 4 p.m. Eastern, and filling Bashir's old 3 p.m. slot with something called The Cycle, which is kind of Around The Horn for young pundits. The regular cast includes the younger generation among MSNBC's apparently inexhaustible reservoir of Political Analysts. These include Krystal Ball, Steve Kornacki, Touré, and S.E. Cupp and, this afternoon, as the program was winding down, Ms. Cupp spent a good four minutes being, weight for age, the dumbest person in the history of cable television:"

Third Generation
22. Mariah AVERY was born on 13 August 1813 in Pennsylvania.2 She died on 8 September 1844 at the age of 31 in Schuyler County, Illinois. She was also known as Maria AVERY.
I have found little additional information about a Maria Avery. It is possible she died as a child or young woman, as Solomon Wixom, married to her sister Sarah, had himself sealed to a Maria Avery in 1872, along with eight other women, many of whom appear to be kin to Solomon or one of his wives. It was the custom among the early church members to assure that deceased, unmarried women were provided a husband.
However, she is most likely the Mariah Avery that was first married to Goveneur Butterfield in Schuyler Co, in 1836. He would marry her niece Sarah Avery, daughter of William & Margaret Pickel, in 1845. In the Journal of Solomon Wixom, he recorded the birth and death dates of Maria.
Mariah AVERY and Gouvneur BUTTERFIELD were married on 27 January 1836 in Schuyler County, Illinois.18,22 Gouvneur BUTTERFIELD12 was born in 1812 in New York.18
1st Marriage to Mariah Avery: Marriage Vol. 1, p.40. License #00000336
In the 1840 Census, Goveneur Butterfield is shown with a probable spouse, age 20-30, and a female child under 5. Possibly both wife and this child died before 1845 when he married Sarah Avery.
In the 1850 Census, Mr. Butterfield gave his occupation as Bricklayer. He did have one wife and it was Sarah.

Dwayne Wade Admits He Nearly Signed With Bulls
ABC Digital
Updated at
(NEW YORK) — Despite spending his entire career with the Heat, Wade admits he almost signed with the Bulls during free agency.
"It was very tough, it was one of the hardest decision I had to make in my life," Wade told Comcast SportsNet Chicago.
"I'm a Chicago guy and I grew up idolizing the Chicago Bulls, idolizing Michael Jordan and wanted to wear that jersey," Wade added. "So the day that I went in for the Chicago visit and they gave me the No. 3 jersey, I mean, that day messed me up. I went back home and I had the jersey on and, I mean, I turned into a kid."
Wade had spent his first seven NBA seasons with the Heat prior to that summer. Soon after Wade re-signed, the Heat were able to sign Lebron James and Chris Bosh.
In nine seasons with the Heat, Wade has averaged 25.2 pionts per game.

Steve Perry working on new music again ... just not his own
It's 2014 and time for a Steve Perry update. The former Journey frontman has reportedly been working on new solo material for a couple years, but the music you're more likely to hear from him this year won't feature his signature voice. It'll be from the band AWOLNATION.
Rolling Stone reports that AWOLNATION frontman Aaron Bruno is working with Perry on the band's next album.
"We became friends," Bruno said. "It feels weird for me to talk about – I feel like I'm bragging about how this legend likes the music I've written. But he asked for my number. He reached out to me."
By the way, remember that item I had a month or so ago about Steve Perry donating a coffee visit with him for charity? Turns out he raised more than $127,000 for City of Hope. How cool is that?

My child knows that every night she has to go to sleep in her bed. If she wakes up in the middle of the night from a nightmare she can climb into mommy's bed for some cuddling and to chase away the monsters. Most nights when the bed routine starts she asks nonstop to sleep in mommy's bed. Well, she doesn't say it in a full sentence she just repeats "mommy's bed?" over and over and over again. On rare occasions when I just want her to fall asleep right away or I want some extra cuddling…Continue

Imagine a scene from Footloose and you have a basic idea of what my high school prom looked like…without the grain elevator, without the cakes and pies, and without the fighting. But, there were plenty of pastel colored long dresses, and ridiculously pastel ruffled tuxedos. Roses and baby's breath abounded and everyone was on their best behavior.

LAKELAND — For most of the Newsome players on the frozen field of George Jenkins on Saturday evening, this was the first time the Class 5A powerhouse stood in their way of making the state tournament.
Most watched from the bench during last year's loss, and in the beginning of this season, a repeat trip seemed unlikely as the Wolves replaced nine starters.
But Newsome played with the nation's No. 3 team, according to ESPNRise, on Saturday.
"We had nothing to lose," Newsome coach Kelly Townsend said. "The pressure wasn't on us."
In the end, George Jenkins ended Newsome's season in the region final for the third straight year, this time 4-2.
"We matched them goal for goal in the second half," Townsend said. "If we didn't spot them two goals in the first it could have been different."
Newsome (17-5-5) fell behind 2-0 at the half on a pair of goals by sophomore Theresa Butler.
Wolves sophomore Jackie Simpson cut the lead to one in the 47th minute, heading in Caroline Evers' free kick. But less than a minute later, Victoria Abnathy scored her first of two goals, driving across the goal and booting a left-footed shot from 20 yards out to give Jenkins (23-0-1) a 3-1 lead.
"It was very important," George Jenkins coach Joe Lenard said of the quick answer. "It showed the kind of character we have. They say 2-0 is the lead you don't want to have."
Abnathy scored again at the 58th minute on another left-handed shot from far out.
Six minutes later, sophomore Liz Haumschild headed in another kick from Evers. Evers, the Wolves' free and corner kick specialist, had two other shots at the goal that Eagles keeper Caitlyn Currie was able to corral.
The Eagles have lost just one game in the past three years, to Palm Harbor University in last year's 5A state championship.

IRAQ -- (Senate - April 24, 2007)
Mr. BIDEN. Mr. President, President Bush has spent the last 2 weeks talking up the ``progress'' we are making in Iraq and talking down the Democrats and some of our Republican colleagues for trying to bring this war to a responsible end. But sometimes that is a problem because you have to deal with the facts. The facts are not as the President wants them to be but as they exist on the ground. The fact is, the President is totally out of touch with reality. He is out of touch with the American people and with America's interests in the region.
I have been here a while, and I can say I have never seen a President as isolated since Richard Nixon. The President appears to be totally removed from reality. He tells us that Attorney General Gonzales has done a great job, when anybody who watched it views it as one of the least impressive appearances of an Attorney General. He tells us that the President of the World Bank, an American, is doing a great job, oblivious to the damage being done to America's reputation around the world. And against the advice of some of the most gifted military men and women in a generation, he has adopted a policy in Iraq that is a disaster.
The President argues that the surge is succeeding, but with every welcome development he cites there is an equally unwelcome development that gives lie to the claim that we are making any progress. For example, while death squad violence against Iraqis is down in some Baghdad neighborhoods where we have surged, suicide bombings have increased by 30 percent over the last 6 weeks. Violence is up dramatically in the belt ringing Baghdad. The civilian death toll has increased 15 percent from February to March. When we squeeze a water balloon in one place, it bulges somewhere else. Moqtada al-Sadr has not been seen, but he has been heard, rallying his followers with anti-American messages and his thugs to take on American troops in the south. Last week, he pulled his ministers from the coalition government, and intelligence experts believe his militia is simply waiting out the surge.
Closing markets to vehicles has precluded some car bombs, but it also has prompted terrorists to change tactics and walk in with suicide vests. The road to the airport to Baghdad may be safer, but the skies above it are more lethal; witness the ironic imposition of ``no-fly zones'' for our own helicopters.
Tal Affar is the most damaging evidence of the absolute absurdity of this policy. The President cites it as progress.
Architects of the President's plan called Tal Affar a model because in 2005 we surged about 10,000 Americans and Iraqis to pacify the city. Then we left, just as our troops will have to leave the Baghdad neighborhoods after calm is established, if it is.
But what happened in Tal Affar? It was the scene of some of the most horrific sectarian violence to date. A massive truck bomb aimed at the Shiite community led to a retaliatory rampage by Shiite death squads, aided by Iraqi police. Hundreds were killed. The population of Tal Affar, which was 200,000 people just a year or two ago, is down to 80,000.
There is an even more basic problem with the President's progress report, and it goes to the heart of the choices we now face in Iraq. Whatever tactical progress we may be making will amount to nothing if it is not serving a larger strategy for success. The administration's strategy has virtually no prospect for success, and his strategy, in a nutshell, is the hope that the surge will buy President Maliki's government time to broker the sustainable political settlement that our own military views as essential, and that is premised upon the notion of a central government in Baghdad with real power.
But there is no trust within the government, no trust of the government by the people it purports to serve, and no capacity on the part of the government to deliver security or services. There is little, if any, prospect that this government will build that trust and capacity any time soon.
How many times have colleagues heard, beginning in January, how there is an oil agreement, that they have gotten that deal? Has anybody seen that deal, after we heralded it time and again as essential to pulling this country together?
In short, the most basic premise of the President's approach--that the Iraqi people will rally behind a strong central government, headed by Maliki, in fact will look out for their interests equitably--is fundamentally and fatally flawed. It will not happen in anybody's lifetime here, including the pages'.
If the President won't look at a program that is different than he is now pursuing if his plan doesn't work, what will he do? History suggests there are only a couple of ways, when there is a self-sustaining cycle of sectarian violence, to end it, and it is not to put American troops in the middle of a city of 6.2 million people to try to quell a civil war.
Throughout history, four things have worked. You occupy the country for a generation or more. Well, that is not in our DNA. We are not the Persian Empire or British Empire. You can install a dictator, after having removed one. Wouldn't that be the ultimate irony for the U.S. to do that after taking one down. You can let them fight it out until one side massacres the other--not an option in that tinder box part of the world. Lastly, you make federalism work for the Iraqis. You give them control over the fabric of their daily lives. You separate the parties, you give them breathing room, and let them control their local police, their education, their religion, and their marriage. That is the only possibility. We can help Iraq change the focus to a limited central government and a Federal system, which their constitution calls for. I cannot guarantee that my strategy will work, but I can guarantee that the road the President has us on leads to nowhere with no end in sight.
We have to change course to end this war responsibly. That is what we are trying to do in Congress. Later this week, we will send to the President an emergency supplemental bill on Iraq that provides every dollar our troops need and more than the President requested. It also provides what the majority of Americans expect and believe is necessary: a plan to start to bring our troops home and bring this war to a responsible end, not escalate it indefinitely.
If the President vetoes the emergency spending bill, he is the one who will be denying our troops the funding they need. He is the one who will be denying the American people a path out of Iraq. The President's double talk on Iraq is reaching new heights of hypocrisy. I don't say that lightly.
On April 16, the President claimed that setting a timetable to start bringing our troops home would ``legislate defeat.'' Just 2 days after that, 2 days later, his own Secretary of Defense had this to say:
The push by Democrats to set a timetable for U.S. withdrawal from Iraq has been helpful in showing Iraqis that American patience is limited ..... that this is not an open-ended commitment.
Then, in arguing against the supplemental, the President claimed that by sending him a bill he would somehow be forced to veto, the military would run out of money for Iraq in mid-April--which is not true, by the way--and as a result, he would have to extend the tours of duty of the troops already in Iraq.
Extending those tours, the President said, ``is unacceptable.'' ``It's unacceptable to me, it's unacceptable to our veterans, it's unacceptable to our military families, and it's unacceptable to many in this country.''
Unacceptable? The very next day, the administration announced its plans to do the ``unacceptable'' and extended the tours of every American ground troop in Iraq by 3 months.
Talk about hypocrisy: Telling us the path out of Iraq is a way which is forcing him to veto a bill that will require him then to extend tours because of that veto and that is unacceptable, and the very next day he extends the tour of every person on the ground. Once one gets over the hypocrisy, that announcement is an urgent warning that the administration's policy in Iraq cannot be sustained without doing terrible long-term damage to our military.
If this administration insists on keeping this many troops in Iraq until next year, we will have to send soldiers back for third, fourth, and fifth tours, extend deployment times from 6 months to a year for marines, from 12 months to 16 to 18 months for the Army. The military will also be forced to end the practice of keeping troops at home for at least 1 year between deployments, to fully mobilize the National Guard and Reserve, and to perpetuate this backdoor draft.
This President is breaking--is breaking--the military. We don't have to guess at the impact on this relentless readiness, its impact on retention and recruitment. This month, we learned that recent graduates of West Point are choosing to leave Active-Duty service at the highest rate in more than three decades. This administration's policies are literally driving some of our best and brightest young officers out of the military.
Instead of working with Democrats in Congress in a way forward, this President, divorced from reality, is accusing us of emboldening the enemy and undermining our troops. I have a message for you, Mr. President: The only thing that is emboldening the enemy is your failed policy. Mr. President, the only mission you have accomplished is emboldening the enemy with your failed policy.
Instead of escalating the war with no end in sight, we have to start bringing this to a responsible conclusion. If the administration insists on keeping this many troops next year, we are in serious, serious jeopardy.
I conclude by saying that I believe it is my obligation as a Senator--and I hope the obligation of everyone else--to keep relentless, unending pressure on this President to come to grips with reality, to continually push every single day to say: Mr. President, stop; stop this policy of yours.
It is my hope, even though he is likely to veto this bill, that we will keep the pressure on and ultimately convince at least a dozen of our Republican colleagues it is time to stop backing the President and start backing the troops. It is time, Mr. President, to begin to responsibly bring this war to an end.
I yield the floor.

Bujingai: The Forsaken City
Review by faizboy22
"The okay action game with gactk"
Bujingai the forsaken city looks like a normal hack and slash action game at fist glance. But I come to find out it is a little more than that. While this game does have it similarity to a devil may cry or a onimusha, it really feels almost like a shinobi, that is what this game has as a soul the newer shinobi game that was made back in 2001 for the play station 2.
Now this game was made back in 2003 for the play station 2 for a mainly Japanese market, for the simple fact that the main character is a Japanese pop star by the name of gactk, in Japan by using him will make it sell more because of his fan base. But since his fan base in the states is not so great they play down that they have gactk in the game but rather try to pass it off as a normal run of the mill action game. But they still keep all the extras that were in the Japanese version of the game, for the extra costumes and the interview and the press conference with gactk and some of the other voice actors.
One of things that sticks out for me was the way the controls were setup at first they seemed fairly easy and really just a button masher. But then I saw that this was actually to its advantage. Since it is a simple control system you can actually enjoy the game more than it having a very complex fighting and combo system it is actually easier to enjoy the game and not worry about getting in that combo right, but there is a way you can change up the system is by pressing the triangle button to break the combo and either launch the enemy in the air or perform a spinning swords move. But the controls are very well done and especially the lock on system. One of the most exciting parts of the game is its counter and block system which is very interesting works very well with this game. The blocking is auto-blocking but during a block you can flip over your enemy and actually strike them or by pressing either triangle or square you can do a counter attack. This alone looks very pretty and the game camera goes into a very cinematic mode when this is done and also one more thing about the control system is the lock on is switch able on the fly, this opens up more of a fluid action system rather than being something stiff.
Now the graphics are border line good. Some of the things that they do well are the character models epically the boss and the lead and sub characters, but the smaller enemies and such can be a little hard to look at. They also kind of look the same. The one thing this game does badly is the backgrounds which at time can be good to awful and repetitive especial anywhere indoors seems to be the same and really got I confused at times. The one thing this game does really well is the spell effects and the battle animation is just really cool; they are very memorizing to look at.
This title sound wise is sub par some of the background music is mostly Chinese instrumental music almost like the stuff you would here on a meditation tape or at a Chinese restaurant, this music is a bit hit and miss with the game since it is an action game. The sounds are well done and the swords clashing are very well done but the one this is the voice acting at least in the American version is a bit hokey and cheesy, but then again this game is supposed to be like a Chinese sword play movie so I guess it works. But this game is more about action and not really about dialog.
Over all this game is hit and miss and falls to do some this well. But if you are in need of an action game you should at least pick it up you shouldn't pay more than 12 bucks for it now. I think this game is at least a once play through you might not bother to unlock everything unless you are a fan of gactk to unlock all of his extra stuff.
Break down
Graphics: 7/10
Sound and music: 7/10
Controls: 8/10

Jo Dee Messina on "Celebrity Holiday Homes" and Planning Comeback [VIDEO]
Jo Dee Messina has had an extremely successful 15-year-plus career with over five million records sold and nine #1 singles, and she's not through yet. Jo Dee will be featured in an upcoming episode of HGTV's "Celebrity Holiday Homes" on Sunday, December 18 along with actors Wayne Brady and Alison Sweeney. Messina tells Billboard.com that the show's designer transformed her home in to a showcase. "I guess living in my home and seeing it every day, I overlook decorating possibilities. I was blown away by what they came and did to the house. It was just, so beautiful." In addition to the television appearance over the holiday, Messina, who is expecting her second child in early 2012, plans a new single to be released next year along with road dates to be announced. Here's one of my favorites, her very first hit!

Milan's Fashion Week blazed through like a conquering army, opening the sartorial gates for all to inspect. Italians are not wallflowers by nature and, with quirky treatments, great colors and that 'something', these collections showed us just how much so.
The Milanese pulled out all the tricks this season. The looks will appeal to many …but, perhaps, confuse a few …because we're talking F A S H I O N Italian style!
"Combo Italiano" is one of the huge trends on the Milanese catwalk. Combining materials and colors for unexpected results. Firstly, combining fur colors to create completely new looks within a fur types. From tortoise coloring to crisp black and white to a soupçon of military camouflage, the looks were lovely.
What about Furs and Feathers! The looks went from polite to WOW! Are we witnessing the birth of archangels? …the hatching of surrealist nymphs? These treatments are truly an ode to the skilled hands behind them.
Some of these concoctions are as marvelous as they are curious; because, frankly, they force us to reevaluate what is beautiful?
The shake up didn't end there. A modernist twist also permeated, bringing to the forefront "cubist" cuts and unusual linear treatment.
These looks have enough swaggers to influence, but the question remains: Shall people follow?

Palm Beach County's availability of raw land may be its advantage in competing for some key future economic development projects.
When competing for relocating companies, "having property available to show clients in shovel-ready state is critical in order to give your county a second look," said Kelly Smallridge, president of the Business Development Board, Palm Beach County's economic development organization.
This week's news that online retailer Amazon has proposed a $300 million investment in warehouse property in the state no doubt has economic development officials scrambling to line up land for consideration. Amazon's plan would bring 3,000 jobs to the state over the next few years.
South Florida will have to compete with less costly property in other parts of the state for projects like Amazon, said Jonathan Kingsley, senior vice president of Jones Lang Lasalle, a commercial real estate services firm in Boca Raton. Jacksonville also offers port access and Orlando has access to a variety of labor, he points out.
But in South Florida, Palm Beach County has the edge with more available land at a lower price than in Broward and Miami-Dade counties, Kingsley said.
Palm Beach County has a list of land that's ready to build multi-acre developments, such as distribution centers and warehouses, with major roadway and railway access, Smallridge said.
She said relocating companies are also looking ahead to Florida's seaports being able to accommodate gigantic cargo ships. The next phase of Fort Lauderdale's Port Everglades expansion will be deepening the port.

Thu 30 Jun 2011 in Atlanta:

peeron geohashing.info
Just off the interstate south east of Hogansville.
I parked across the street at a gas station. I had 405 feet to go from where I parked.
The Geohash spot is across the street and to the very left of the picture. This picture was taken from inside my truck at where I parked.
I walked across the street. 296 feet standing at the side of the road.
The field that I needed to walk into to get to the Geohash spot. The Geohash spot is off to the extreme left of the picture.
Hey! There is a path cut that is leading to the Geohash spot. The actual spot is just to the right of this path.
23 feet to go. I'm inside of the 10meters.
It turns out that the exact spot is in a Bamboo forest. It is one of the reasons why I couldn't get a lock on the GPS.
The bamboo was probably 25 to 30 feet tall. It was also difficult to walk around in.

Re: i may begin fly fishing... questions and advice?
i will attempt to satisfy a couple other questions. my use of tippet may not be correct.
correct; backing, fly line, leader(tippet), fly.
i believe the loose criteria for backing is to provide low memory, improved abrasion resistance and break at a poundage greater than your tippet. often a braided type line accomplishes this, as for you question about a special type of backing i am not sure but would imagine if it follow the aforementioned guidelines it can accomplish the job of filling the spool and providing additional line for when you need it.
there are a couple knots you may want to familiarize yourself with. there may be better options but i was taught to use the following; attaching the backing to spool i just use simple double knot. if for some reason you find yourself in a situation where becoming spooled by a fish is imminent just palm the real and force the weakest link(should be the knot attaching to the fly) to break.
to attach the backing to the fly line i use a double nail knot.
you put two of these together and when you pull the two lines together the two nail knots pull together. this knot creates a more streamline option conducive to flowing smoother through your guides of the rod.
i attach the leader to fly line using the same nail knot; for the reason named above.
i use a tapered leader for the first several feet of my line from the fly line end. i then proceed to add and remove several sizes of tippets in order to control the length and strength of the tippet. i use a blood knot when changing more similar diameters of leader material(tippets). if you try to jump to big a diameter the blood knot does not work well. for example: my tapered leader may taper from fly line diameter at the junction with the fly line to about 12lb diameter or so. i then add a section of 0x or 1x tippet then skip a size to 3x for another section and often finish with a 5x-6x pending what i can get away with. do not feel compelled to add tippets unless your leader becomes to short(in your perspective). it is only when mine becomes too short that i will add the reduction in tippet materials to increase the overall leader length.
i alluded to it above in the discussion about making the backing at least rated for the estimated breakage at the attachment to your lure/fly. knots act on a line like a guillotine. a good example to illustrate my point is think of a simple overhand knot. as you tighten it it chokes itself. i have read a simple overhand knot reduces the effective breaking point of the lines rating in half; i call it a 50% knot. so the obvious solution it spread the pressure of the knot over a larger surface area. a good knot will exceed 90% of the lines rating. the key to takeaway from this is the knot at the lure/fly should be weakest link in the system.
i may come back later and address any ambiguity's i have created or try to address any other questions/concerns you may have.

Time to start another series winning streak. The Royals just swept the Brewers, so surely the Twins can take at least two out of three, right? The Pirates are next and although they have a winning record, B-R's SRS system rates them a -0.5, so there's another winnable series. Just burst the bubble that needs to be burst before something drastic happens, like the Pirates making it to the postseason. Finally, uh, let me check the master schedule I have saved to keep the sidebar updated... Right, Cincinnati is next and they're actually kind of good. That's okay, just take things one game at a time and work your way up to a bit of a challenge. Because then it's the White Sox next and it's always fun to beat them.

The Great Lakes are a crown jewel of North America, holding nearly one-fifth of the planet's surface freshwater. They have nearly 11,000 miles of shoreline and harbor, more than 530,000 acres of coastal wetlands and the world's largest freshwater delta (in Lake St. Clair). They range from the cold and deep waters of Lake Superior to the relatively warm and shallow waters of Lake Erie.
The watershed drains more than 200,000 square miles ranging from heavily forested areas to mixed urban and agricultural development, and supports approximately 6,000 species. The lakes are home to numerous fish, including species undergoing restoration efforts such as lake trout and lake sturgeon, and species that are popular in commercial or recreational fisheries, including lake whitefish, walleye, muskellunge and several introduced salmon species.
The Great Lakes are important sources of drinking water, economic livelihood and recreation opportunities for millions of Americans and Canadians. Recreational boating in the eight Great Lakes states produces more than $35 billion in economic activity annually, and fishing, hunting and wildlife watching amount to more than $18 billion in annual economic activity in these states.
Threats from Global Warming
Global warming adds yet another stress to a Great Lakes system already struggling with aquatic invasive species, deleterious land use changes, nonpoint source pollution, toxic chemical contamination, and coastal habitat degradation/wetlands loss. Potential global warming impacts include reduced water levels (due in particular to decreased winter ice cover allowing more evaporation), increased frequency of intense storm events (altering the timing of inflows), and warmer water temperatures.
Already, Lake Superior has increased water temperatures and an earlier onset of summer stratification by about two weeks in just the past 30 years. Within another 30 years Lake Superior may be mostly ice-free in a typical winter.
Lake Erie water levels, already below average, could drop 4-5 feet by the end of this century, significantly altering shoreline habitat. Global warming could change internal water cycling in the Great Lakes with longer summer stratification potentially leading to larger dead zones (lacking in oxygen). Other potential consequences include less habitat for coldwater fish, more suitable temperatures for aquatic invasive species and hazardous algal blooms, and more mobilization of contaminated sediments as well as nutrients and toxic chemicals from urban and agricultural runoff.
Threats to specific wildlife habitats include:
Conservation Investments to Minimize Global Warming Impacts
Global warming-induced water level declines increase the need to adopt the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact to protect against large-scale out-of-basin diversions, and implement programs to reduce agricultural and urban water use through conservation. As lake levels decline and shoreline wetlands are lost, efforts will be needed to enhance protection, restoration, and development of wetlands at lower water levels to retain their many functions including wildlife habitat and water purification.
The potential for new exotic species to take hold as the water warms could exacerbate an already serious aquatic invasive species problem. Adequate programs to prevent the introduction of new species (e.g., through adequate screening, early detection and rapid response, and treatment protocols) and restrict movement for those invasive species already in the region are essential.
Global warming has the potential to profoundly influence water supply and its quality for the Great Lakes from the surrounding watershed. To maintain healthy lakes it will be important to monitor and manage impacts in the watershed, such as storm surge inputs and erosion. The altering of hydrological cycles by global warming may even require that stormwater and wastewater treatment infrastructures are redesigned or upgraded.
The Great Lakes Regional Collaboration process recommended major restoration of the Great Lakes at a cost of about $20 billion over five years. If implemented, this could result in $80-$100 billion in short and long-term economic benefits to the regional and national economies and is a worthy cause. However, to be effective, these assessments and the restoration efforts must take into account global warming.

Some fun climbs on this wall.
One of the routes above the pit, just right of Ramp/Barron, had some confusing anchors at the top.
There were two sets of anchors at the top of the route (#8 maybe?). The outside set was typical of the area: glue-in bolts with chains and rap rings. The inside set had bolts with hangers, one of which was loose.
Both sets showed some wear, and the loose hangar had some rust on it.
Great area! My daughter loved climbing Barron.
I hope to stop in again before mosquito season kicks off.

With the University of Alabama football team enjoying its bye week, they hung out together that Friday.
Defensive end Marcell Dareus did the driving because Nick Bell, a Mississippi State defensive lineman who started earlier this season, wasn't feeling well. The friends from Birmingham had some fun, laughed a little and went out that night, making it an evening that Dareus will never forget.
"The next day he called me and I was seeing how he was doing, just chatting," Dareus said. "He said he had a friend coming down from Mississippi State. I said okay, then they chilled and I didn't speak to him. That's when he told me everything that was going on."
Bell, who had tumor removed from his brain Oct. 1, had since been diagnosed with a form of skin cancer that was spreading. He was to start chemotherapy the following week.
However, a headache developed Sunday while watching an NFL game, which worsened along with a burning sensation in his arm. Bell ended up at University of Alabama-Birmingham Hospital where doctors discovered another mass on his brain, and emergency surgery was performed Monday morning.
Bell fell into a coma and died the next day. He was 20.
Dareus wasn't able to attend the funeral last Saturday because he was with the Crimson Tide in Baton Rouge. But this week Mississippi State will play its first game since Bell's death when it visits Bryant-Denny Stadium.
"It's been a very difficult nine days," said Bulldogs coach Dan Mullen, who also used the word "rough."
How could it not be?
"I have several friends on Mississippi State from Birmingham that I grew up with," junior center William Vlachos said. "It was very tough on them. I heard they thought the world of him."
So did Dareus. Although they never played football together, but twice found themselves on opposite sides as Bell went to Minor High School and then Jess Lanier while Dareus was at nearby Huffman, they did suit up together for an AAU basketball team. The massive athletes understood each other in ways others could not, and clicked.
"He was a real close friend of mine," said Dareus, who also lost his mom this year. "Even when we got to college he would come down and stop on his way to Starkville. If he came through Tuscaloosa he always stayed with me. We were real, real close.
"We'd always just act like kids. We'd have so much fun with each other. When we got together we didn't have to talk about football. That was our escape from football and everyone else."
But sports were never too far from their lives.
"We used to joke and play, and were always in competition," Dareus continued. "Every game we always called each other and were always like 'I bet I had more tackles than you,' or 'I bet I made more big plays than you.' 'When we play you all we're going to do the best. I bet we win.' He was so competitive.
"We would be playing a game and he would always say he's going to beat me."
Madden football was a favorite of theirs, even though neither was especially proficient. Dareus would play as Alabama and Bell countered with Mississippi State, which in the video game is a bit of a mismatch because the Crimson Tide was loaded after being the preseason No. 1 team.
"I'd be beating him and wouldn't know what I'm doing," Dareus said. "He'd get a sack and he'd be jumping around like he's lost his mind."
The over-reacting, playful taunting and celebrating were pretty much the norm. When the trash-talking reached a fevered pitch, or one of them simply couldn't take it anymore, they'd end up wrestling on the floor.
"I always beat up on him," Dareus said with a short laugh, perhaps the carnage of broken furniture still fresh in his mind.
It seems almost trite to try and put some perspective on a football game in light of the tragedy and how it may affect the teams - especially on Veteran's Day weekend -- although MSU athletic director Scott Stricklin put it well when he said that, "Words can't express our sadness."
But it'll also be the best way to pay tribute to Bell, by honoring his memory with the game that he loved, between his team and his favorite opponent, going at it like there's no tomorrow.
It's also a big game for both sides, with Alabama looking to bounce back from its second loss and the Bulldogs trying to make a mark on the national scene and perhaps earn one of the biggest bowl bids in program history.
"We just have to hold it together," said Dareus, who is dedicating the rest of his season to his friend. "We have to finish the season strong."
The Mississippi State Athletic Department has established a memorial fund for the Bell family through the Bulldog Club. Donations can be made by calling 662-325-3074.Cards and messages may also be sent through the MSU athletic department at PO Box 5308, Mississippi State, MS, 39762.


text: Education Secretary Arne Duncan Hails Learning Registry 11/8/2011 5:06 PM ET U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan on Monday hailed a new open-government initiative aimed at helping teachers to harness the "full power" of the Internet, saying the program will enable "compelling, personalized" instruction.A joint effort of the Department of Education and the Department of Defense, the online Learning Registry will help accelerate a metamorphosis in America's classrooms from sites of print-based instruction to digital learning environments, Duncan said.The program will "enable teachers to offer personalized instruction that will both raise the bar and level the playing field for every single student," said Duncan, speaking at the annual convention of the State Educational Technology Directors Association (SETDA).The Learning Registry provides a platform for content providers and aggregators to share materials with educators and parents alike, in an open-source environment. Moreover, technical protocols allow for applications to help users to find quickly targeted materials to meet specific student needs, and administrators and others to harvest and analyze data being shared."Whether teachers are down the hall from each other or literally half-way across the globe, the Learning Registry can help them find and share what they are thinking, teaching or collectively creating," Duncan said.U.S. Chief Technology Officer Aneesh Chopra, also speaking to convention attendees, said the Learning Registry will help capture the imagination of youngsters and engage entrepreneurs in new market opportunities.The Learning Registry will allow teachers and parents to tap into "proven, successful innovation" that can engage students, said Chopra, associate director for technology within the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy.Calling the Learning Registry the "flagship open-government initiative" at the Department of Education, Chopra said the effort represents the Obama administration's push toward "lightweight, bottom-up, standards-driven" government. The Learning Registry beta release was developed by a team funded by the Department of Education and ADL: SRI International, Lockheed Martin, National Science Digital Library (NSDL), Navigation North, and Butte County Office of Education/CADRE in California. by RTT Staff WriterFor comments and feedback: email@example.com News 8 Pharma Stocks that Made Headlines This Week Killer Progress: 10 Jobs Endangered By Artificial Intelligence America's 10 Worst Cities to Retire

Gov. Rick Scott on pros and cons of USF Polytechnic
Gov. Rick Scott is getting lots of feedback from both sides on the bill that spins off USF Polytechnic University as a separate 12th state university. As he sipped on a bottle of Perrier in his Capitol office Thursday, Scott said he hasn't made up his mind on the proposal. But he framed the arguments on both sides of the issue as he sees them.
"The question on one side is going to be, is this something that we can afford. Can we afford a 12th university when we know it's difficult," Scott said, citing the multi-billion-dollar budget deficits in his first two years in office. "The other side of it is that people in the Lakeland area think they're underserved. It's going to be something I believe in -- science, technology, engineering and math -- so that's a real positive. But there's lots of arguments."
"I have people on both sides, and they're calling," Scott said. "The people in the Tampa area are very much opposed to it and the people in the Lakeland area are generally very supportive of it, and the rest of the state's not that engaged in the debate."
Asked whether USFP's No. 1 supporter, the term-limited Sen. JD Alexander of Lake Wales, has lobbied him lately, Scott said: "Not since session ended." A flash of the Scott sense of humor appeared when the governor was asked if he would consider appointing Alexander to the USF Poly board if he signs the bill. "Wouldn't Judy (Genshaft, USF president) want him on USF's board?" Scott asked. "No one's asked me that and he hasn't asked me that."
The Legislature hasn't sent Scott the bill (SB 1994) yet. When he gets it, he must act within 15 calendar days.

DVD; The D.J. Rocked, And TV Shook
By DAVID BROWNE
Published: May 6, 2007
ALTHOUGH it was never meant to be the stuff of conventional entertainment, too much rock 'n' roll has become just that. Rock stars are featured in reality shows and tabloids; previously sacrosanct Led Zeppelin and Nirvana songs are plugged into commercials and soundtracks; ''American Idol'' has devoted an entire evening to cluelessly sung renditions of British Invasion hits. The refrain of a Pink Floyd classic, ''Welcome to the Machine,'' has never stung more.
As implausible as it may seem, there was actually a time when rock 'n' roll was deemed dangerous, or at least threatening. That long-ago world is evoked by the DVD release of the first season of ''WKRP in Cincinnati,'' the 1978-82 CBS sitcom about a loser easy-listening station that switches to a rock format. In the first episode a group calling itself Haters of Rock 'n' Roll protests the change. Settling into his office, the new program director, Andy Travis (Gary Sandy), immediately pins up a -- shocking! -- Kiss poster. The gonzo counterculture-leftover D.J. Johnny Fever (Howard Hesseman) makes the first of many not-so-veiled drug references.
In another episode the station is the host of a concert by a nihilistic fictitious ''punk'' band called Scum of the Earth. With three-piece suits and ersatz hard rock, Scum is more like a cartoonish heavy metal band, but what matters is the idea that rock once unnerved people.
In the world of ''WKRP,'' rock 'n' roll was still the province of Commie-pinko degenerates intent on undermining American values. (In one particularly quaint touch, especially in light of the Don Imus storm, Fever loses his job at another station by saying ''booger'' on the air.) ''It's the dungarees versus the suits,'' decries the leering, polyester-encased ad salesman, Herb Tarlek (Frank Bonner), a comment that sums up the show's recurring us-versus-them theme.
During its run ''WKRP'' seemed as disreputable as the music itself. It was the work of MTM, which also created ''The Mary Tyler Moore Show,'' and the shows shared a basic premise: Outsider goes to work for media outlet and adjusts to wacky characters who toil there. Yet in a TV Guide interview at the time a former MTM executive sneered at ''WKRP's'' forays into slapstick (compared with the more adult humor of MTM shows like ''Rhoda''). And even though ''WKRP'' was nominated for 10 Emmys, it took home only one (for videotape editing).
Yet as the DVD shows, ''WKRP'' was funnier than the muddled ''Rhoda,'' and the pinup-primed secretary Jennifer Marlowe (Loni Anderson) employed a sex-as-empowerment strategy that now seems a precursor to Madonna's.
The show reveled in black humor (''Turkeys Away,'' about a Thanksgiving giveaway gone horribly, hysterically wrong) and had its share of somber moments (the pimp-dressing nighttime D.J. Venus Flytrap, played by Tim Reid, is discovered to be a Vietnam deserter). Speaking of solemn themes, one could spend hours pondering the impact on the ozone layer of all the hairspray used to keep Ms. Anderson's and Mr. Sandy's hair in all their immovable '70s glory.
In one unfortunate regard, though, ''WKRP'' still gets no respect. At one point Johnny Fever cues up Blondie's ''Heart of Glass''; instead, what we hear is a generic rock instrumental. That is repeated through the DVD box. Thanks to the high cost of licensing oldies, the period rock, funk, new wave and soul records spun by Fever and Flytrap have largely been replaced with no-name music.
Stripped of the original soundtrack that fueled it, ''WKRP in Cincinnati'' loses a bit of its soul on DVD. Then again, so has the music in the years since. ''WKRP'' brings back a time not only when rock was still somewhat underground, but also when radio stations had D.J.s with quirky personalities and individual tastes (instead of anonymous ''Jack'' formats). While it's a relief that the days of anti-rock censorship groups are history, ''WKRP'' makes you wish a few Haters of Rock 'n' Roll still hovered somewhere out there.

Party in the USA? Hardly.
Miley Cyrus let loose at Parisian hotspot VIP Room with Twilight's Ashley Greene Sunday night. With a lollipop in hand, the 17-year-old pop star (clad in a revealing lace top) danced the night away to the beats of DJ Ruckus.
"She was with one bodyguard and two girlfriends," an eyewitness tells UsMagazine.com. The source adds that she was having a good time, but didn't act "too crazy."
Earlier in the night, Cyrus looked slightly more reserved in distressed tights and a flannel shirt as she ate dinner at Hotel Costes on Rue Saint-Honoré. Check out more pictures of Miley and Ashley in Paris.
Cyrus and Greene -- who are in the midst shooting in the comedy LOL: Laughing Out Loud (a remake of the popular French film) -- admit they're both falling in love with the City of Light.
"I want to take my hotel room and replicate it at home. So romantic," Greene, 23, tweeted Saturday. "Love, Love, Love Paris already."

The threat of repossession is one of the scariest things you can ever face. If you've got people who rely on you, or have nowhere to go should you lose your house, it can be disastrous.
There are all kinds of reasons why people end up facing repossession, and often there is little they could do about it.
Sudden changes in circumstance can turn a comfortable mortgage into a desperate situation.
If you're unable to meet your payments, the lender won't show much sympathy in trying to reclaim the money they are owed.
The Council of Mortgage Lenders recently described the level of repossessions as 'stable' but, with 9,600 homes reclaimed in just the first three months of the year, it's clear that a lot of people are affected.
The bad financial conditions are making repayments harder than ever. If you do lose your home, the charity Shelter can help.
If you are facing repossession, talking to the lender should be your first priority. They will often help you to get back on track.
As a safety net and last resort, you could look for a quick house sale to raise the money you need.

This bar is not the best because that has to go to RCM .9999 serialized bars but this bar is the next one down from that. When I buy my bars i look for it to be reputable, recognized, and for it to have a serial number. This one is a beauty and the extrusion process makes it very uniform in shape and size. Also like that the corners are sharp.
Very nice bars. The one I have has obviously been pre-owned, but who cares it's SILVER! I'm in this thing for survival, not for "collect-ability".

Good brand, shipped bars show wear and tear. Not recommended as collector's item.
