Gebhart: 'The Forgotten War' will be long remembered
It's sometimes referred to as "The Forgotten War," that "police action" or "United Nations intervention" that sent a million or more young men to the Korean Peninsula from 1950 to '53 to "keep the world safe from communism."
Did it work? Was it worth it? Sixty years later, the jury is still out on that. But forgotten? Certainly not by the 103,234 who were wounded and certainly not by the families of the 544,246 who were killed or the 8,177 still listed as missing in action. And certainly not by anyone who served there.
One such gentleman is Ray Hassel of Glenolden. He's 83 now, which makes you wonder how many World War II veterans we still have under the age of 90. Hassel grew up on Wilsonden Avenue in Collingdale and went to high school there. All his friends called him "Wiggy." He was in the Class of 1947 which boasted the great football running back, Bill Rhoads.
He planned to join the Marines right away, but his father insisted he try a year of college first. "I upheld my end of the deal," Hassel said, "and enrolled at Temple. But after a year, I knew that wasn't for me so I dropped out. Then Dad upheld his end of the deal and let me join the Marines."
There must have been times over the next four years that Hassel didn't wish he had remained an Owl. He was in the first Marine detachment to land in Korea, in August of 1950. He was 19 at the time, and part of the First Marine Brigade. It was called a brigade because there weren't enough Marines to be called a division. They were assigned to what was known as the Pusan Perimeter, a section of South Korea to which allied troops had been pushed back by the communists.
The Marines and GIs held the line and began pushing back. During his tour (now with the First Marine Division) Hassel took part in the highly successful invasion of Inchon and was with the men who hurled the commies all the way up the peninsula to the Yalu River, which separated Korea from China.
His outfit was stationed near the Chosen Reservoir, called "Frozen Chosen" by anyone unfortunate enough to have been there. Temperatures of 30 degrees below zero were not uncommon. He was attached to a Sikorsky helicopter unit, the first choppers ever to be used by our military in combat.
"One of our pilots was a 'China Marine,' one who had been stationed there in peacetime," Hassel recalled. "He knew what a Chinese soldier's uniform looked like. After one mission, he told the brass that he had seen Chinese troops near the border. They told him he was nuts."
While the brass was making up its mind whether to cross the Yalu into China, the Chinese made up their mind for them. With bugles blaring, the Chinese sent 26 divisions into the battle with another 200,000 fresh troops in reserve. Battling subzero weather and scant supplies, our forces made a fighting retreat. Before long, the First Marine Division was back at the Pusan Perimeter.
"That was a very scary experience," is about all Hassel will say about those days. "You could hear the bugles and know they were coming. In addition to the bitter cold, the wind would cut right through you." Continued...
Fortunately, Hassel made it through without being wounded. He had some unfinished business to attend to at home involving a young lady named Betty Jane Nixon, better known as "BJ." They had met in first grade in Collingdale. Her family moved after third grade, but she returned to Collingdale High for the last two years of high school. They were married in 1951 and stayed married for 59 years until "BJ" passed away two years ago. Would have been married sooner but Hassel's three-year enlistment was extended for 12 months by something old timers angrily recall as a "Truman year."
Following his discharge from the Marines, Hassel got his old job back at Shallcross, an electrical firm in Collingdale, then spent four years at Union Tank Co. in Philadelphia. "I was doing OK, but they transferred me to Casper, Wyo.," Hassel said. "I lasted one week and went back to our home in Glenolden."
In time, Hassel went to work for Provident Mutual in Philadelphia. Retired in 1988 after 28 years on the job. Meanwhile, "BJ" and Ray were raising a family. They had two sons, George and Bryan. George graduated from Bloomsburg and then picked up a master's degree from Widener U. where he has an executive position today.
Bryan is a graduate of the Williamson School, as was his son, also Bryan, 25 years later. Bryan Sr. is a purchasing agent for the George Kempf Supply firm. His son teaches industrial arts at Downingtown West High School.
"'BJ' and I had seven grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren" Hassel said. "The grandchildren and their spouses have produced seven teachers and two nurses."
Hassel goes to the Ridley Township YMCA five mornings a week. "That was BJ's idea," he said. "I said I didn't want to go. She said, 'You're going!' and that was that."
Although he misses his wife dreadfully and lives alone, Hassel is rarely lonely. Both his sons live within a mile of his home on Scott Avenue and around the corner from each other.
"My family takes great care of me," he said. "Without them, I don't think I'd here."
He's kept so busy he hardly ever has time to think about those bitterly cold nights in "Frozen Chosen," the Marines advances and the Marines retreat.
Are those memories fading? To be sure. Will they ever be forgotten? Never! Continued...

In Israel, a new five month scholarship program being offered to young aspiring athletes – one of them could be you.
President Obama, unfortunately, still seems to believe his administration has essentially routed the international terror enterprise. The blinders need to come off, and quickly.
About the Author:

The growing revelations that the Obama State Department watered down public statements on the attack in order to cleanse them of any mention of al Qaeda and terrorism is a travesty.
We must confront Islamist groups with what Prime Minister David Cameron referred to as "muscular liberalism."
Al-Qaradawi's visit and statements also serve as a reminder that the Israeli-Arab conflict is centered, more than ever, around religion.
Everyone who reads newspapers should know at least one thing. Threats to annihilate Israel have always been unremarkable. Almost never, it seems, have Israel's existential enemies sought any reason for concealment.
Mark Treyger, a candidate for city council in New York City's 47th council district, met recently with the editorial board of The Jewish Press at the newspaper's Boro Park office.
Israel's government did not want to liberate Jerusalem. Or to be more specific, the Labor and National Religious Party ministers did not want to liberate Jerusalem. "Who needs that whole Vatican?" Defense Minister Moshe Dayan explained at the time.
Last Friday, the Western Wall underwent an unwelcome transformation from sacred site to media circus as the group known as the Women of the Wall sought to hold a decidedly non-traditional prayer service.
Two recent revelations have raised serious questions about the kind of government President Obama is running.
Readers of my monthly Baseball Insider column may have noticed its absence last week (the column appears in the second issue of every month). The reason for that is I have something more serious and personal to share with you, something that didn't seem appropriate for a baseball column.
Herbert Romerstein died last week after a long illness. With Herb's passing, we lose not only a good guy but a vast reservoir of knowledge that is not replaceable.
Freedom House recently released its annual report on press freedom throughout the world at an event sponsored by the Newseum in Washington. But along with the usual and appropriate condemnations of dictatorships and totalitarian states, the group decided to slam the one democracy in the Middle East as well as one of the few states in the region where press freedom actually exists: Israel.
What is the relationship between Pesach and Shavuos?
Rabbi Naftali Jaeger, rosh yeshiva of Sh'or Yoshuv, relates in the name of the Ishbitzer Rebbe a striking metaphor:
Now is the time for Ankara to take some corrective domestic and foreign policy measures consistent with what the country has and continues to aspire for but fails to realize.
Even Muslim Brotherhood think-tanks have said that the Shia, and especially Iran, are more dangerous threats than is Israel.
Two recent revelations have raised serious questions about the kind of government President Obama is running.
We were dismayed by the announcement last week from Google that it was changing the name "Palestinian Territories" to "Palestine" across its products. In explaining the action, a Google spokesman said that "We consult a number of sources and authorities when naming countries…. In this case, we are following the lead of the UN, ICANN (the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers), ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and other international organizations."
It seems clear that there is a lot more to the current developments regarding Syria than Israel's bombing some sites there, though staunching the flow of Iranian weapons to Hizbullah through Syria is plainly a significant objective.
Secretary of State John Kerry's recent embrace of the Arab Peace Initiative is, to say the least, unnerving. Certainly the response of Arab leaders to his action reflects the dangers for Israel inherent in the plan. President Obama seems to be preoccupied these days with Syria and Iran as well as serious domestic issues and is largely leaving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to Mr. Kerry. But the secretary of state seems poised to roil things up without any prospect of real progress.
Syria's civil war is fast becoming one of the Obama administration's greatest foreign policy challenges, for the moment even surpassing Iran's march toward nuclear weaponry in its urgency. Together, both issues have effectively derailed the president's long-range intention to focus on Asia and the emerging economic and military developments in China and other nations in the so-called Asian Pivot.
The investigation into the Boston bombings is still in its early stages but what seems to be emerging is that the presumed perpetrators were not directly linked to any foreign terrorist infrastructure. Rather, they were individual Americans radicalized by jihadist teachings and guided in their weapons-making by jihadist websites.
During the run-up to the confirmations of Secretary of State Kerry and Secretary of Defense Hagel, we and others forcefully challenged the latter over statements he had made about Iran and Israel, and were more favorably inclined toward the former.
This week Jews around the world celebrated Yom Ha'Atzmaut, Israel Independence Day. Sixty-five years ago on the day before the British mandate over Palestine was set to expire, the Jewish People's Council, comprised of the political leadership of the Jewish residents of Palestine, proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel.

Just last year, the Diocese of Colorado Springs celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary of serving all of the communities in the ten counties in the heart of Colorado. As we launch our new five-year pastoral plan, Living the Mission, Transforming the Culture, Catholics in the diocese are re-committing to proclaiming Jesus Christ as Lord and building up the Kingdom of God. With God's grace, we, the people of the Diocese of Colorado Springs strive to answer His call and continue the good works of those who have come before us. In Novo Millennio Ineunte (NMI), released at the beginning of the new millennium, Pope John Paul II challenged the Church to proclaim the Gospel with new resolve and in new ways, rooted in Christ's promise, "And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age." (Mt. 28:20)
"Conscious of the risen Lord's presence among us, we ask ourselves today the same question put to Peter in Jerusalem immediately after his Pentecost speech: 'What are we to do?'" (Acts 2:37)
Our Holy Father reminds us that,
"It is not…a matter of inventing a new program. The program already exists. It is the plan found in the Gospel and in the living tradition…But it must be translated into pastoral initiatives adapted to the circumstances of each community." (NMI 29)
"It is in the local churches that the specific features of a detailed pastoral plan can be identified – goals and methods, formation and enrichment of the people involved, the search for the necessary resources – which will enable the procla- mation of Christ to reach people, mold communities, and have a deep and incisive influence in bringing Gospel values to bear in society and culture." (NMI 29)
The Vision for the diocese is clear. We are called to transform our society, imbuing it with the Christian values that will speak to the emptiness and longing in each person's heart. The members of the laity need to be the agents of change in this effort. It is their vocation to "seek the Kingdom of God by engaging in temporal affairs and directing them according to God's will." (LG 31) So it is with renewed zeal that we seek the guidance of the Spirit for the local church of the Diocese of Colorado Springs, answering the call of Christ to "make disciples of all nations." (Mt. 28:19)
The Diocesan Vision Statement calls us as the Church to make a difference in the world; now is the time to cooperate with God's grace and to live a radical witness of our faith.
"And even with everyone working together, we will fail if we rely on our own strength; it is only through God's grace and power that we can transform ourselves, our institutions, and our world. We are responsible to carry God's message to a broken world so that His vision can be realized. Each local Church is called to be a vibrant center of Catholic life in order to transform the culture of our ten counties. Priests, deacons, consecrated persons, and laity must pray and work together to bring hope to the world. We must also look for every opportunity to partner in ecumenical efforts to evangelize the secular culture."
In order to do this effectively, we need to know what we are facing, both within the Church and outside the Church in the communities that make up our parish and diocesan boundaries. Toward this end, we have done scans for information, both internal and external, to gather as much data as we can about our current reality and to be able to identify, as a Diocesan Church, the challenges we face and the opportunities open to us.
God has called us to a particular place in a particular time to build up His Kingdom. No one else will do it if we don't. No one else has the opportunity or the grace to transform the communities within our local Church to reflect the Presence of Christ with His love and Truth. In order to do this, we must learn what mission means, how to live it out, and who needs our presence, our attention, and our resources. It is God Himself who reveals these to us; we must have "ears to hear and eyes to see." (cf. Mt. 11:15) The goals and objectives that follow are the result of extensive and ongoing consultation within our diocese. The consultation began with our presbyterate and other pastoral leaders, those called to minister in our parishes, schools, hospitals, hospices, and every place to which God calls them. The Deans, Diocesan Pastoral Council and its Subcommittee on Planning, parish pastoral councils and parish staffs, laity across the diocese, along with the Presbyteral Council, Volunteer Planning Consultants, and Chancery offices were instrumental in the plan's development. Through articles about the developing plan in The Colorado Catholic Herald, our diocesan newspaper, and invitations to contribute suggestions for goal areas, everyone in the diocese had an opportunity to contribute to the final product. Time and again the goal areas that follow were raised as areas of concern, of priority, and of hope. The plan reflects, in every way, the sensus fidelium of the people of the Diocese of Colorado Springs in our time. Therefore, it is truly our responsibility to ensure its successful implementation. Each of the six Diocesan Goals is primarily coordinated by a specific office at the Chancery. These are:
Evangelization for Discipleship.............................Office of Total Catholic Education
Faith Formation......................................................Office of Total Catholic Education
Stewardship as a Way of Life........................Office of Stewardship and Development
Sacramental, Devotional, and Prayer Life............................................Bishop's Office
Marriage and Family Life.....................................Office of Marriage and Family Life
Vocations to the Priesthood, Consecrated Life, and the Diaconate......Bishop's Office

Observing the double slit experiment
In this experiment wave particle duality is shown. Without observation the wave function is used. With observation the particle function is used.
My question is what is the definition of observation? Specifically in the case of an electron gun is the observer a conductive piece of material in and around the electron path? |

I should add that in "Bohmian mechanics" the philosophy is different. But I do not think you want to know about Bohmian mechanics - it is a separate subject.

Detection clicks are audiable. But my focus was on the "fly's ear" not just ear, or just 'eye'. |

A quantum experiment must include a measurement result that is obtained when the particle is detected. I think this is what you mean by observation; observation is the measurement result. This result is a necessary part of the experiment. (Bohr) Without a result (observation) there is no experiment to discuss. The wavefunction is used to calculate the probability of obtaining that result. Without observation, there is no wave function. Neither the theory nor the experiment describe what the particle is doing before it is detected. Quantum mechanics predicts only the possible results of a measurement and the statistical distribution of those results. We have no idea what the particle is doing before detection. (Wheeler) The particle is always detected as a particle. It is the statistical distribution of the results that we identify as an interference pattern, which is characteristic of classical waves. Thus, we see "a particle" when the individual particle hits a detection screen. We see an "interference pattern" (caused ?? by "a wave") when a large number of particles have hit the screen one at a time. An observation is a measurement result that gives a value for a specified observable, such as energy, momentum, spin, etc. The particle detector is part of the measuring apparatus, which is the observer. As noted by others, the experiment does not require a human observer. What are you trying to measure with " a conductive piece of material in and around the electron path?" |

If there is no "human observer", how does one acquire knowledge of the experimental results? |

Are you interested in human beings or are you interested in physics. Human beings, their psychology, neurobiology, etc. is a different branch. Of course quantum processes, in particular detection processes take also place in neural activities. But that does not influence the laws physics.

It depends on the exercise. Rats also exercise, frogs do, and birds exercise as well. Perahps the whole Nature exercises, one way or another. Physics is about making the patterns. Recognition of patterns is another thing.

In Lesson 2, you worked with Bob to create a semantically correct HTML5 page. But Bob didn't spend much time explaining each individual element—its purpose, your options, etc. That process begins in this lesson as he talks about what makes HTML5 special, the purpose for things like DOCTYPE, meta tags, charset, UTF-8, html, why "semantics" is important, the head and body tags, and more.
Download the source code for Understanding the HTML5 You Wrote
Oops, something didn't work.
Bob, in the examples of the meta tags, your "author"-meta tag states "Bob "Tabor instead of "Bob Tabor" (see the misplacement of the double quote ?).
It would be a good idea if you are going to get so detailed especially for beginners to mention the downfalls of specifying px vs. percent on things like margin and padding. You are basically skirting around a big initial design problem by using px for those values and then going in and trying to adjust the blowouts by fixing parents.
Which capture application are you using to create your tutorials?
@Dean Bush: After experimenting for years I have a pretty complicated setup -- I'm not sure you would want to do what I do. I think the most popular software is Camtasia for this purpose.
Wow thanks, I love these videos
Thank you Mr.Tabor! You are actually more helpful than my college professors.
Hello Mr.Bob! Sir I must say really professional and easy tutorials.Can you tell us about a good HTML5 & CSS3 builder-tool.I have downloaded Adobe-DreamWeaver but don't know how to use it.If DW is the best one then please upload its tutorial videos.
sir i cant understand how the how is the pic Tag plz tell me the easy way
Again, as I've said in a previous comment (lesson 2), this is such extensive material and at the same time so easily assimilated that I think beginners won't find a better learning resource.
I'm already acquainted with web technologies (I've been reading on HTML5, CSS, Javascript, SQL, PHP and design concepts for a couple of years) and .NET programming (VB has been my hobby for 10 years), so most of the content in these lessons I'm already familiar with, but they are nonetheless interesting yet, as you are pointing out best practices and hints to more advanced practical cases, which is exactly what I was looking for in order to consolidate my knowledge in this field, as I haven't had many opportunities/time to practice web coding unfortunately.
I'm going to have to watch the rest of the lessons offline, so I'm very grateful for that option too.
Grasping web technologies is easy, delving into them on the other hand... it can be difficult at the beginning even for me (because of the complexity/multitude of information), but this video course is making it all seem less complex and complicated, so it's exactly what I need. I hope the C# course will have the same effect and teach practical use cases which differentiate it from VB (VB was great to learn, but now I think C# is more transparently structured - for example, when it comes to forms and how they as objects are created/identified in code or how the main() function is always present).
Great vid's. I'm starting vid 4 now. Great top-level explination. Great work, just awsome!
I really really want to become a programmer, Anything you could Email me "email@example.com" From ANYONE to help me on my path. Thanks for these videos, One day I'll be a great programmer :)
I love the binary clock! @BobTabor
Yeah, I really like that whole 'semantics' thing. I was thinking how it can be used in the future and nothing has arrived so far, But! You said that it can be useful for blind people with the use of speech synthetiser and text recognition software. So... I used in the other way round with "speech recognition software". Yeah, to my delight it's really comfortable to say "make a html template", "add meta name", "open body", "close body" and see how everything happens without using a mouse or keyboard. I think that with semantic marking in html5 it would be more easier for blind people to create an actuall website which could be very interesting. : )
And yeah, as for using speech recognition software I will try to use it for the whole course and see how productive it is. : ) Somehow speaking aloud makes me easier to organise and understand what I'm doing with the webpage.
@Moriarty: I tried that experiment years ago (Dragon Dictate or Nuance or something) to *command* the computer, not just author documents. What an exercise in frustration! If you can pull it off, good luck to you! I realized I think in keystrokes, not verbally.
Thanx BOB Nice Stuff....I realy like your videos...
Awsome !!
Is that a clock in the background on the shelf? Whatever it is, it looks neat.
@gprasant: yes, it's a binary clock from ThinkGeek.
The best teachers have natural characteristics that make them great. Often its just a style of delivery. Your voice and diction and speed of talking, your mannerisms, all make it very easy to learn. You are a natural!
As excellent as your video tutorials are, videos in general have a drawback. They present information that is often hard to find later. For example, you give tips to go to various web sites for more information. It would be a simple but very worthwhile addition to add a file to your download package that includes links that you have covered in your videos.
Thank you so much for these videos- I'll be telling friends about this source for sure!
@wayneC: Thanks Wayne! ... re: links ... agreed, part of this is a learning process ... learning how people consume the content on Channel9. In more recent series, I've done exactly as you've suggested. It would probably be a good idea to retroactively go back and put those links in the description area (above) as well as deep links into the video itself, which I just learned you can do here on Channel9. Thanks for the feedback and the kind words.
I Really like the way you teach . I have been a fan of your series since i watched windows phone app development videos of yours. Its Great to find such a good teacher as you.I even posted some of windows phone basics on my Blog: Kgtricks
@KunalGanglani: Thanks Kunal! Best wishes to you.
You are excellent teacher, now I'm a big fan of yours
how can I get a picture as wallpaper on the website?
@Dennis: A quick Bing search revealed:
BTW, I wouldn't be doing my job if I didn't encourage you to really understand WHAT the CSS the author uses is actually doing. You wouldn't want to be accused of being a "script kiddie".
Good luck!
This is a really cool step-by-step tutorial. Thank you Bob!
much appreciate the videos, thanks Bob. However Helvetica has only 1 't'..
and a bit of trivia for you .. did you know that Helvetica is the latin name for Switzerland ? which is why the mandatory 'country sticker' at the back of cars in Switzerland is CH - Confederation Helvetica
there you go, thanks again for your great videos !
Hi Bob,
I love to attend your lessons and they do push me further onwards!!
However I do like to know what's that funny "living lighting picture" in your closet behind you above your head?
Where can I buy such an object.
Cheers Johan
@edualc: Ah, interesting. Thanks!
@compucol: Oh, you like my Binary Clock?
A++++ video awesome
BOB Thnx, still very consructive teaching, very helpful
comment crie sit web
@prasannap: Here's a link to the phone 7 videos ...
Phone 8 videos baking in the oven as I write this.
Just Outstanding! I had the privilege of seeing your VB course some years ago but didn't take advantage. I am happy to say that now I can finally learn HTML and later VB from a great teacher. Your style of presentation is right on. Thanks for the continuing videos you have created to make us future programmers. Manuel
@Manuel from Puerto Rico: Thanks for the really nice endorsement. Good luck to you my friend.
Good evening Bob, I would like to thank the video lessons are well really easy to understand and well explained, I do not have an English as fluent but I am understanding everything. Congratulations on the job, hugs!

An Upstate mother accused of killing her own daughter was expected in court Tuesday morning, but the preliminary hearing was postponed.
Rina Edith Padilla Mencia is accused of running over her 15-month-old daughter, Joelie, at the River View Mobile Home park in Saluda Dam Road on July 30, 2012.
Deputies said the death came one week after Mencia reported that her 5-year-old son had wandered away. Investigators said he was found hours later at a nearby playground.
Mencia was arrested on August 29 and charged with homicide by child abuse. Two days later, federal authorities placed a detainer on her after it was determined that she was living unlawfully in the country.
Mencia's attorney, Joe Baldwin said the federal hold process sought to hasten his client's deportation process before her case was adjudicated.
"For a charge such as this, I question the policy of allowing someone to leave the jail and get out of the jurisdiction of South Carolina," Baldwin said. "If the solicitor is really going to prosecute the case, this is going to cause a lot of trouble to bring her back."
Mencia is in federal custody in Georgia. Baldwin said she was taken directly from the Greenville County Detention Center after satisfying a $50,000 bond in October.
"I think she actually thought she was going to be let out," Baldwin said. "I tried to tell her that's not what's going to happen."
Instead, Baldwin said his client followed advice from fellow inmates.
"When somebody is here unlawfully and they're arrested on a criminal charge, they go through the same process as everybody else does. They're afforded a bond," 13th Circuit Solicitor Walt Wilkins said.

Fiscal Cliff: What it will mean to you
With the "Fiscal Cliff" looming ahead of us and no deal in sight people are starting to wonder what the fiscal cliff means.
"Huge tax increases; deep cuts in domestic and defense programs; the likelihood of sinking stock prices, reduced consumer spending and corporate layoffs. The risk of a recession within months," according to a report Friday by the Associated Press.
The tax hikes will hit everyone a bit different. It would be felt over the course of 2013, growing slowly as the year progresses.
Unless reversed after the first of the year, it includes cuts to Social Security and income tax increases.
In order to better understand how it will affect you, a link to the Tax Foundation's Tax Calculator is available. Visit: http://interactive.taxfoundation.org/taxcalc/#calculator
All you have to do is put in how much the household earns, number of dependents, and you can get an approximation of how much more you will pay in taxes. There is an option to put in more information, if you so desire, to get a more exact amount. The following examples are the approximate amounts, without additional information that could change the amount, of the increase in taxes:
— A single 'Head of Household' making $21,000 with two dependents under 17 would be paying $1,843 more.
— A married couple making $100,000 a year with one dependent under 17 would be paying $5,725 more.
— A married couple making $50,000 a year with 2 dependents under 17 and one over 17 would be paying $2,917 more.
— A single person making $30,000 with no dependents will be paying $950 more. Continued...
— A single person making $120,000 with no dependents will be paying $4,709 more.
— A married couple making $140,000 a year with no dependents will be paying $7,667 more.
The effects of the cuts and tax hikes would also be widespread, massive spending cuts to about 1,000 government programs combined with higher taxes could reduce the deficit by about $560 billion.
However, it could lead to a stagnated economy, government program cuts, and increasing taxes. All of this combined could take America into another recession, experts have suggested.
"The economy would shrink at an annual rate of 0.6 percent in the first three months of 2013, said Joel Prakken, an economist at Macroeconomic Advisors.
"CBO forecasts that the U.S. unemployment rate would rise to 9.1 percent from the current 7.7 percent."
While all of this seems very bleak there is one thing that needs to be remembered, if they past the deadline, it doesn't mean that's the end.
Lawmakers can still make a deal or can write new legislation in the next Congress and restore the tax breaks.

What happens to the guns after they are turned in? No one ever reports on that. My husband is willing to turn his guns in, but feels they will be resold.
Posted by "ilegal", a resident of the Menlo Park: Central Menlo Park neighborhood, on Feb 6, 2013 at 12:54 pm
"When guns are totally ilegal" In what Fox fantasy world will this happen?
"What happens to the guns after they are turned in?" In the last one I read about, they were melted down and used for rebar.
This is for folks who want to get rid of guns needlessly lying around the house. It won't 'fix' everything, but is a good thing.
Why would anyone in our community prefer that unwanted guns be sitting in someone's house?
Posted by Seller, a resident of the Atherton: other neighborhood, on Feb 7, 2013 at 3:06 pm
There are many gun dealers that will sell the firearms on consignment. The ones turned in are getting pennies on the dollar. Such a waste. Not one 'bad guy' will show up, but there will simply more unarmed citizens as potential mugging victims. Shooting is an olympic sport. Embrace the diversity of a gun owner.

Choosing Travel Destinations That Are Truly Relaxing
When you are thinking of taking a nice vacation, or pleasure excursion, you need to start by packing some good information into your brain. The more prepared you are, the better your experience will be. The following tips will help you plan the best trip possible and make solid travel decisions. You should plan ahead and find time to have fun; use these suggestions to your benefit.
Be wise about food allergies when visiting a foreign country to avoid dangerous liaisons. If you are allergic to certain foods, you should know what the name of the food is in the native language. This way you can be sure to alert wait staff of your allergies to specific foods and, in the worst case scenario, be able to inform medical professionals of your condition.
If you're traveling somewhere where you'll need tickets, like amusement parks or a play, look for ways to have them ahead of time. The small fee for such a service is worth it to avoid long lines. Also, check to see if the attraction offers timed entry, as these can allow you to skip lines within the park as well.
Clothespins can be very helpful when travelling. They can be very useful.
Get adequate exercise before a long trip. Multi-hour flights can take a lot out of you. Sitting the same way for a long time can cause your legs or back to cramp. Getting in a workout, or at least some stretching, before you board the plane can help cut down taxi to gatwick or eliminate any leg and back muscle issues.
Keep your most important information and items close to you at all times. Tuck bags and purses under your arm where it is close to your body. Avoid bags with easy-access zippers that can be easily accessed by www.parkersofreigate.co.uk someone other than yourself. Security should be one of your top considerations when buying a new bag for travel.
When traveling, it is important to wear shoes that are comfortable and easily removable. When you go through security checks, you will be required to take them off. Your comfort should be a priority. You do not need particularly supportive shoes as you will be spending most of your time sitting. A perfect type of footwear for travelling is sandals.
You will not save much space, plus, many of these items are overpriced. Try rolling shirts instead of folding them to save room and lessen the chance of wrinkles. Trying out different folding techniques will allow more to fit in your bag.
There are many beautiful vistas and unusual fauna and flora in a desert. The first time you visit the desert, you are sure to be awed by the vast expanses of open space and the breathtaking austerity and majesty. The desert is definitely a mustn't miss destination.
These strategies should give you insight on how to begin planning for your ownpersonal adventures. These tips were thoughtfully compiled to help the new travelers learn the basics and some other cool techniques that are simple enough to use for their next trip.

Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. is "receiving intensive medical treatment at a residential treatment facility for a mood disorder," according to a statement released by the congressman's office, which attributed the quote to an unidentified doctor.
The Illinois Democrat and son of the Rev. Jesse Jackson, the civil rights leader, has not been on Capitol Hill since late May, and in early June his office announced he was taking a leave of absence because he was suffering from a "medical condition."
Jackson's office on Wednesday noted that information on Jackson's status is protected by federal law, as is the information of all medical patients. At the same time, the congressman's office released what it said was a statement from Jackson's doctor. Jackson's office declined to give the doctor's name.
The doctor also was quoted as saying Jackson "is responding positively to treatment and is expected to make a full recovery."
According to the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, "mood disorder" is a broad term covering a variety of neurobiological abnormalities that can include a major depressive episode, bipolar disorder and catatonia.
"Generally speaking, to be diagnosed with a mood disorder, your feelings must be intense, with the patient feeling either depressed, or having excessive energy for days at a time, where sleep is not needed and decision-making can be significantly hindered, or one can fluctuate between both extremes," said Nancy Molitor, a psychologist in private practice in Wilmette, Illinois, and assistant clinical professor of psychiatry and behavioral science at Northwestern University School of Medicine in Chicago.
Jackson's illness comes as the House Ethics Committee is examining allegations that in 2008 he or one of his associates offered to raise funds for then-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich in exchange for the Senate seat vacated by President Barack Obama going to Jackson.
Jackson has maintained his innocence and pledged to continue to cooperate with authorities. "I did nothing illegal, unethical or inappropriate in that pursuit, and I believe that is what the Ethics Committee will conclude at the end of this process," he said.
In a separate incident, Jackson apologized to his constituents in September 2010, after the Chicago Sun-Times reported that a Chicago businessman told federal investigators that Jackson had asked him to pay for a restaurant hostess to fly between Washington and Chicago several times.
He said he was "deeply sorry" that he had "disappointed some supporters."

Well if he can't cheat one way he might as well cheat another way.
Nice pick up to add to their already impressive (on paper anyways) line up.

Thread: Toad MySQL Can not connect database in Windows 7 64bit Ultimate
Mautirz, thanks for the reply.However, the trouble machine and MySql server are in the same subnet, there is no firewall between them.(-) Sniffer log shows successful two way communication, and to me, Toad already successfully login the DB.(-) It is running good with MySql workbench 5.2 CE from the SAME Windows 7 64bit to access the same MySql DB using the same account.But I still like to use Toad. Hope the sniffer log attached in the original email could give you hint, which additional TCP segment Toad is still waiting? Is this optional from MySql side? Thanks.
This happens when you try to make connection withMySql database from within .NET and is a privileges issues. For resolution, please follow these steps,
1- Run > Command Prompt
Move to C:\Program Files\MySql\bin folder. Path for me appears as following,
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.5\bin>
2- Log into My Sql by exeucting the following command,
mysql -u root -p
You will be prompted for password.
Enter password:
On successfull password input you will log into mySql console,
mysql> _
3- Grant All Privileges
Execute following command under my sql console,
grant all privileges on *.* to `root`@`%` identified by 'password';
Upon successfull completion of command you will recieve confirmation simialr to this,
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec)
Note: Pay special heed to position of apostrophe vs. commas. Usernameis enclosed within apostrophy(`) where as password within commas (').
4- Flush Privileges
Execute following command to ensure the privileges take affect,
flush privileges;
which will result in notification similar to this,
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.11 sec)
You are done. Switch back to Visual Studio to test your settings are properly taking affect. To exit mysql console type exit and press enter. Above steps are summarized in figure below,

AMARILLO, TEXAS -- Monday evening's rainfall is prompting Amarillo city officials to urge residents to empty any standing water to prevent any mosquito hatching.
Mosquitoes are known to hatch from eggs into larvae in any standing water. Residents are asked to empty any standing water by Friday to help the mosquitoes from hatching into biting adults.
"The City is actively treating standing water and wants you to know space spraying will not kill many mosquitoes because the insecticide particles disperse rapidly," says Deree Duke, Director of Environmental Health. "The major disadvantage of space spraying is that it will not manage mosquitoes for long periods of time."
Places that are known to have standing water that should be emptied include wading pools, pet dished, bird baths, tires, buckets, jars and rain gutters. The City said the only way to stop mosquitoes is to elimate standing water and tip and toss the water out of anything that holds it.
The Environmental Health Department suggests three ways residents can 'fight the bite':|1. Tip and Toss the water from all containers around your property. 2. Consumer Control - Because community controls cannot reduce mosquito populations to zero, people need to protect themselves as well, particularly on evening outings. There are a wide variety of products available for personal mosquito control, probably more than for any other type of insect.a. These include indoor aerosol products and outdoor foggers b. There are several personal repellents for mosquito control that can be applied directly to exposed skin or clothing. c. At this time, it appears that chemical-based mosquito control products are the most effective, while the mechanical and bug zapping devices are not very effective in controlling mosquitoes.3. Vegetation Managemento Adult mosquitoes prefer to rest on weeds and other vegetation. Homeowners can reduce the number of areas where adult mosquitoes can find shelter by cutting down weeds adjacent to the house foundation and in their yards, and by mowing the lawn regularly. o To further reduce adult mosquitoes harboring in vegetation, insecticides may be applied to the lower limbs of shade trees, shrubs and other vegetation. Always read and follow label directions before using any pesticide.

VLAN Support in Linux
It's no surprise that Linux makes a great router and firewall. A lesser-known fact is that you also can use Linux as an Ethernet bridge and VLAN switch, and that these features are similarly powerful, mature and refined. Just like Linux can do anything a PIX or SonicWall can do, it also can do anything a managed VLAN "Smart Switch" can do—and more.
Why VLAN?
When you hear the term VLAN, large-scale corporate or campus networks might come to mind. Easing the burden of maintaining these types of networks was one of the primary reasons VLAN technology originally was developed.
VLANs allow network topology to be rearranged on demand—purely in software—without the need to move physical cables. VLANs also allow multiple separate layer-2 networks to share the same physical link, allowing for more flexible and cost-effective cabling layouts. VLANs let you do more with less.
Take the example of a large spread-out network with multiple LANs and data closets. Without the benefit of VLANs, the only way you can move a device to a new LAN is if it's accessible in the same data closet (where the device connects) as the old LAN. If it's not, you have no option other than pulling a new cable or physically moving the device to a location where the new LAN is accessible. With VLANs, however, this is a simple configuration change.
These are the types of benefits and applications that usually are associated with VLANs, but there are many more scenarios beyond those that are useful in all sized networks, even small ones.
Because VLAN switches historically have been expensive, their use has been limited to larger networks and larger budgets. But in recent years, prices have dropped and availability has increased with brands like Netgear and Linksys entering the market.
Today, VLAN switches are cheap (less than $100) and are starting to become commonplace. I suspect that in a few more years, it'll be hard to find a switch without VLAN support, just like it's hard to find a "hub" today.
In this article, I give a brief overview of 802.1Q VLAN technology and configurations and then explain how you can configure Linux to interface directly with VLAN topologies. I describe how a VLAN switch can help you add virtual Ethernet interfaces to a Linux box, saving you the need to buy hardware or even reboot. I also look at solving some of those small-scale network annoyances. Do you think your Linux firewall has to be located near your Internet connection and have two network cards? Read on.
The purpose of VLAN (Virtual LAN) is to build LANs from individual ports instead of entire switches. A VLAN config can be as simple as groupings of ports on a single switch. The switch just prevents the ports of separate groups (VLANs) from talking to each other. This is no different from having two, three or more unconnected switches, but you need only one physical switch, and it's up to you how to divide the ports among the "virtual switches" (three ports here, eight ports there and so on).
When you want to extend this concept across multiple switches, things become more complicated. The switches need a standard way to cooperate and keep track of which traffic belongs to which VLAN. The purpose is still the same—build LANs from individual ports instead of entire switches, even if the ports are spread across multiple switches and even multiple geographic locations.
Although various manufacturers initially created other proprietary VLAN formats, the prevailing standard in use today is 802.1Q. In a nutshell, 802.1Q provides a simple way for multiple VLAN switches to cooperate by attaching VLAN-specific data directly to the headers of individual Ethernet packets.
IEEE 802.1Q is an open standard, which means, theoretically, that all compatible devices can interoperate regardless of manufacturer. Linux VLANs are based on 802.1Q, and almost any switch that advertises "VLAN" will support this standard.
You can think of VLAN switches as a natural evolution of Ethernet devices, with its ancestors being the switch and the hub. The fundamental difference between a switch and a hub is that a switch makes decisions. It won't send packets to ports where it knows the destination MAC can't be found. Switches automatically learn about valid port/MAC mappings in real time as they process packets (and store that information in their "ARP cache").
A VLAN switch adds another condition on top of this. It won't send packets to ports (the "egress port" or sink) that aren't "members" of the VLAN to which the packet belongs. This is based on the VLAN ID (VID) of the packet, which is a number between 1 and 4096.
If a packet doesn't already have a VID, it is assigned one based on the port on which it arrived (the "ingress port" or source). This is the Primary VID (PVID) of the port. Each switch port can be a member of multiple VLANs, one of which must be configured as its PVID.
The VID is stored in an extra 4-byte header that is added to the packet called the Tag. Adding a Tag to a packet is called Tagging. Only VLAN devices know what to do with Tagged packets; normal Ethernet devices don't expect to see them. Unless the packet is being sent to another VLAN switch, the Tag needs to be removed before it is sent. This Untagging is done after the switch determines the egress port.
If a port is connected to another VLAN switch, the Tags need to be preserved, so the next switch can identify the VLANs of the packets and handle them accordingly. When a packet has to cross multiple switches in a VLAN, all subsequent switches rely on the VID that was assigned to the packet by the first switch that received it.
