Ships that have to pass through Somali waters and the surrounding area should be able to protect themselves. If they aren't able to, the piracy is going to continue to worsen. Like the official inquiry in the Netherlands suggested, the governments should do the hiring of armed guards. The piracy issue is only escalating, and it should be up to each government to protect its people and help them defend against attacks. If the government placed trained men on board the ships, their people would be better protected, and it would alleviate problems of claims and lawsuits. Not only do the ships need to be protected, but something needs to be done to stop the piracy. Even if the ships can better defend themselves, as stated in the article, pirates will probably increase in violence. The US should influence Kenya to take aggressive action against it.
SOMALI pirates can be persistent. They have attacked the Maersk Alabama, a container ship owned by an American subsidiary of Denmark's Maersk Line, no fewer than five times, most recently in May. In the first attack, in 2009, the captain was held hostage until the US Navy rescued him. Then Maersk put private armed guards on the ship. Since then, it has successfully repelled all boarders.
Maersk says it is only arming a few ships plying the pirate-infested waters off East Africa. But the practice is spreading rapidly among shipping firms despite the cost, which can run to $100,000 per voyage for a four-man team. That is because the number of attacks, off Somalia and elsewhere, has kept growing despite the strengthening of naval patrols (see chart). The European Union's NAVFOR task-force, NATO warships and other navies patrol the waters off Somalia, but this has only pushed the pirates out into the open ocean, extending their attack zone towards India's coast and as far south as Mozambique's. This has forced the shipping industry, its insurers, and the national and international authorities that oversee them to accept that private armed guards are a necessity.
On October 11th British and American navy ships rescued an Italian cargo vessel seized the previous day in the Indian Ocean, after, somewhat improbably, finding a message in a bottle that the hostages threw overboard. But, such are the millions to be made from ransoms and cargo theft, this success is most unlikely to deter the pirates. In the past month, according to NAVFOR, ransoms have had to be paid to free two Greek-owned ships, leaving a further ten large vessels (and countless smaller ones) still in the pirates' hands, along with more than 250 hostages. A NATO commander has predicted that, with the end of the south-west monsoon season, pirate attacks will only increase in the coming months.
Until February the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), which represents the world's merchant shipowners, opposed the use of armed guards—even as some members were discreetly hiring them. Since the chamber changed its line, the number of owners tooling up has accelerated. Now, says Simon Bennett, its spokesman, perhaps 20% of all ships passing through the risky parts of the Indian Ocean have armed guards aboard—typically retired marines or the like.
In recruiting armed security men, some shipowners have defied the laws of the countries where their vessels are registered. But governments, unable to provide the naval cover the shipowners want, are one by one legalising the practice. Spain, one of the earliest to let its fishing-boats carry armed guards, said on September 27th that they would now be allowed to use machineguns and other heavy weapons against the pirates' AK-47s.
Some countries, such as America and Denmark, have introduced licensing schemes for owners who want to arm their ships. Britain is among those still considering legalisation, and Greece's shipping industry is pressing its government to do likewise. The UN's International Maritime Organisation (IMO), while still not endorsing the practice, last month asked Somalia's neighbours to let armed merchant ships call at their ports. The ICS says it understands Egypt is to lift its ban on armed merchant ships' passage through the Suez canal. But the Indian government is still said to disapprove of armed merchant ships calling at its ports: their guards either have to go elsewhere or dump their weapons overboard.
An official inquiry in the Netherlands last month recommended that the government itself do the hiring of armed guards, enlisting them as temporary members of the armed forces. This is one potential way to ease worries about the spread of what would in effect be private navies on the high seas—something not seen since government-sponsored "privateers" were banned in the 19th century.
The IMO says armed guards should not be an alternative to using other defensive methods, such as knocking pirates into the sea with high-pressure hoses, or installing strengthened "citadels" on ships in which crews can take refuge from attacks. However, what is concentrating shipowners' minds, says Neil Smith of the Lloyd's Market Association (which represents underwriters on the London insurance market) is that no ship with armed guards has yet been taken by pirates. The question, he says, is whether as more ships arm themselves, the pirates will use more violent tactics.
Shipowners' insurers are worried that ill-trained guards without insurance of their own might shoot someone and land them with huge claims. North of England P&I, a shipowners' mutual-insurance club, is setting up a vetting scheme for security firms. Andrew Glen, one of its officials, says member companies have sometimes struggled to find suitable contractors, so it makes sense to compile a list of pre-approved ones for them to choose from. The scheme will ensure, among other things, that the security firms themselves have adequate indemnity cover.
There do not yet seem to have been any claims, or lawsuits, over the use of armed ship guards, says Tom Heinan of International Registries (which runs the Marshall Islands' shipping register). But shipowners using them could face legal action in various places: their own country, the flag state of their ship, the home countries of injured crewmen, and so on. All the more reason to ensure that the guards are competent and well-insured.

North Fork Horseradish Festival celebrates the uniquely bitter taste of horseradish with everything from recipe contests to cooking demonstrations. Exhibitors and enthusiasts will fill the rolling landscape of Hallockville Museum Farm to join seminars teaching patrons how to use their own horseradish, from harvesting to gardening to cooking. Grinding-horseradish demonstrations show how to manipulate your roots into a more manageable form for cooking, and recipe contests will give you new ideas on how to surprise your family with a spicy kick in their everyday meals.
Nestled in the fertile New York countryside, Lenz Winery grows a variety of vinifera grapes that include chardonnay, cabernet franc, merlot, and malbec to compose a fine symphony of wines. Wines from Lenz Winery's 70 acres are culled to fruition through meticulous means, bringing the vine to full ripeness and fermentation and allowing each grape to express itself in a fine wine rather than a cheesy poem. Guests of Lenz Winery can bask in the smooth sipping ambience of the premium six-wine tasting flight as they are surrounded by quaint farms and thriving crop fields.
The friendly enophiles at Sannino Bella Vita Vineyard take an interactive approach to wine education, guiding visitors through the ins and outs of the vintner process and offering sips of rich estate wines crafted onsite. Sojourners can venture to the winery to tipple glasses of chardonnay and merlot inside a rustic tasting room situated in a barn built in the early 1900s, or extend their stays with an annual membership to the vineyard's unique Vine to Wine program. During the course of the year, program members take a hand in every part of the winemaking process, raising grapes from infancy before crushing and pressing them into adulthood at the vineyard's custom-winemaker center.
The scenic North Fork vineyard is also home to Sannino's bed-and-breakfast, a single Tuscan-style suite that overlooks rows of growing vines and houses numerous amenities including a marble bathtub, 42-inch flat-screen TV, king-size bed, and spacious private living quarters. Complimentary beach passes and tasting tours await overnight guests, as does a full breakfast every morning. Remote wine-lovers can also peruse Sannino's wares online as they envision themselves traversing the verdant property and testing each bottle's bouquet by closing their eyes and sniffing their computer monitor deeply.
During your tasting for two ($5 value per person), you'll sample five different red and whites from Osprey's superb selection. The award-winning grapen goodness is culled from lively vinifera vines creeping across the 90-acre grape growery. Spend time sipping in Osprey's comfortable tasting room and scouring the sky above the sun-bathed rows of green for soaring ospreys, who guard grapes from liquor-loving kobolds. The take-home bottle of 2006 reserve chardonnay ($15 value), a full-bodied sip that's ripe with aromas of tropical fruit, toasted oak, and vanilla, has a well-balanced acidity that pairs well with seafood and sea-smoothed stones. Check Osprey's Dominion's schedule of events to see when there's live music.
With two locations and 140 acres of picturesque land, Duck Walk Vineyard remains a popular presence on the Long Island Wine Trail, having been voted in 2013 as one of the top wineries in Long Island by "Best of Long Island". Tastings of the winery's many vintages, including reds, whites, ice wines, and fruity dessert wines, draw crowds of visitors to both of Duck Walk's spacious facilities, where live music dramatically shatters listeners' emptied glasses. The festive atmosphere here also makes it a prime setting for weddings, rehearsal dinners, and other private events.
Since opening in 1975, Haight-Brown Vineyard has churned out 2,000 cases of grape-based libations each year from its nearly 10-acre vineyard and welcomed visitors into its rustic, cottage-like wine house. Emphasizing vinifera and French hybrid grapes, the state's first-established winery creates a selection of wines that include the Big Red, a bold syrah; the Morning Harvest, a rich malbec; and Honey Nut Apple, a traditional apple wine that incorporates local honey and cinnamon. Vintners share their time-tested expertise during regular classes that teach aspiring oenophiles about a variety of vintages and techniques for cheese and chocolate pairing. Amid the tasting room's wood accents and crackling stone fireplace, customers sample vintages and attempt to describe taste sensations with adjectives such as "silky" or "very different from milk."

LAKEWOOD RANCH — As NASCAR fans rally Nov. 15 for the Checker O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 in Arizona, East County residents will be revving up for a race of their own.
Lakewood Ranch Main Street will host the first American full size pedal car races Nov. 15 during the Pedal Car Race and Car Show organized by Ed's Tavern.
"This has never been done before, so we are really working on a (blank) piece of paper," race organizer Ken Miklos said.
Race registration starts at 1 p.m., with time trials on a 65-yard modified track to follow at 2 p.m. The two fastest competitors in each age group from the time trials will race each other for bragging rights and prizes.
Race participation is free, but donations from the event will benefit the Bayside Community Church's "Living The Dream" building fund. The Bayside #14 car will compete against the Dale Earnhardt Jr. #88 car, officially licensed by JR Motorsports.
The car show itself will last from noon to 4 p.m. and will benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International.
Miklos, owner of the Lakewood Ranch-based consumer packaged goods marketing firm K.R. Miklos & Company, had been selling child-size versions of the pedal car to corporations since late 2007. Their buyers would put the cars on display, raffle them off to customers or use them at special events.
But mid-year, Miklos' company expanded its customer base and, following a suggestion, pitched the cars to the U.S. National Guard.
"They came back wanting a full-sized (car) that can be driven by adults," Miklos said. "At the time, the product did not exist in any form, way or fashion."
But through his contacts, Miklos found a U.S. manufacturer who could produce the 250 cars sought after by the National Guard. Soon, he was in business.
Miklos saw the potential immediately: Chevy dealerships, American Legion posts and retailers such as Wal-Mart all would be good candidates. They could hold pedal car races as community events, while helping to draw customers into their stores. Churches and other charitable organizations even could use the cars for fundraisers.
"That's where our races come in," Miklos said.
This Sunday's pedal car races will provide the logistical information needed for Miklos to write a manual for Pepsi Co. and other potential customers about how to organize pedal car races.
"We're doing this as a test," he said.
But Miklos sees it as just the beginning. In the next year, he plans to have two more pedal car races — one in February and another just before the Indianapolis 500 in May. One likely will be on Bayside Community Church's new campus, the other may be held at a high school track, where teams of four drivers each drive 110 yards in relay style.
Miklos also said he soon will begin selling car sponsorships.
Contact Pam Eubanks at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Pedal Car Race & Car Show
WHEN: Noon-4 p.m., Nov. 15
WHERE: 10719 Rodeo Drive, Lakewood Ranch. Pedal car race registrations starts at 1 p.m., with time trials following at 2 p.m.
ACTIVITIES: Pedal car races, door prizes, 50/50 drawing, music and food specials at Ed's Tavern BENEFITS: Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International
INFO ON EVENT: www.collectorcartstv.com or call Ed's Tavern at 907-0400 or Lance at 371-1061
INFO ON PEDAL CAR RACE OR PRE-REGISTRATION: firstname.lastname@example.com
Each of the adult-sized pedal cars is 8 feet long, 3 feet wide, 3 feet tall and weighs 155 pounds.
"Our cars — think of an exercise bike with four wheels, a steering wheel and a stockcar body," Ken Miklos said. "It's great exercise."

Characters Discussed (Cyclopedia of Literary Characters, Revised Third Edition)
Mr. Ramsay
Mr. Ramsay, a professor of philosophy, a metaphysician of high order, an author, and the father of eight. Not really first-rate, as he realized by the time he was sixty, he knew also that his mind was still agile and his ability to abstract strong. Loved by his wife, he is nevertheless offered sympathy and consolation for the things he is not. Lithe, trim, and the very prototype of the philosopher, he attracts many people to him and uses their feelings to buoy him in his weaknesses. He is not truly a father; his gift for the ironic and sardonic arouses fear and hatred rather than respect among his children. Broken by the deaths of his wife and his oldest son, he continues to endure and to sharpen his mind on the fine whetstone of wit.
Mrs. Ramsay
Mrs. Ramsay, a beautiful woman even in her aging; she is warm, compassionate, and devoted to the old-fashioned virtues of hearth, husband, and children. With an aura of graciousness and goodness about her, ineffable but pervasive, Mrs. Ramsay gathers about her guests, students, friends, and family at their summer home on the Isle of Skye. Loving and tender to her children, and polite and pleasant to her guests, she impresses on them all the sanctity of life and marriage, the elemental virtues. Her love and reverence of life have its effect on all of her guests, even an atheistic student of her husband and an aloof poet. Mostly she affects women, especially Lily Briscoe, with the need to throw oneself into life, not to limit life but to live it, especially through motherhood.
James, the Ramsays' youngest son and his mother's favorite. He is the child most criticized by the professor because the boy robs him of sympathy that he desperately needs. Sensitive and austere, James at six and sixteen suffers most the loss of his mother, taken from him at first by a calculating father's demands and later by her death. He and his sister Camilla make a pact of war against their father's tyranny of demands and oversights. Finally, on a trip to the lighthouse, the symbol of what had been denied him by his father, Mr. Ramsay praises his son's seamanship.

I am experiencing random permission 600 applied to /etc. Sometimes I can go a day without being struck, and sometimes only minutes later, after doing chmod 755 /etc, it's back to 600. I thought this might be some protection feature in the kernel to protect against bad memory or mass storage. I have changed out memory, leaving only one stick fully qualified by my motherboard maker, but to no avail. I can't play with the disks right now. I reduced the number of processes to those listed in the attached file. Is this a normal feature due to marginal hardware, a misinstalled application or is my system hacked?
—Stan Katz, email@example.com
Hardware issues will (almost) never cause filesystem changes in this manner and certainly not in such a consistent manner. It's time to look for applications (possibly malignant) that may be causing the problem. You need to examine your other log files—something might be a hint there. You only included messages through the system boot, nothing from its operation. Start by looking in all crontab files, tracing out processes that are run from it. Also compare the system dæmon binaries you are running, as well as other regularly used tools, against those on your installation media to verify that they have not been replaced with a Trojan horse. Finally, check for applications that are setuid root, since those are a sure tip-off that you have been compromised. However, it's unusual for a Trojan horse to restrict the permissions on a directory. Without access to the system, its log files and the ability to examine the files installed, we cannot further analyze the problem.
—Chad Robinson, firstname.lastname@example.com
You almost certainly have a cron job that is resetting the permissions, or worse, a cracker kernel module that is messing around with your system. You should try chmod 755 /etc; chattr -i /etc to make /etc immutable, which hopefully will help make whatever program is resetting the permissions fail (for a cron job, you may even get an error by mail). Typing rgrep -r chmod /etc /var/spool/cron may also give you a clue as to what is changing the permissions.
—Marc Merlin, email@example.com
This is not a feature. Sounds like a Trojan or misinstalled program. This is a difficult problem to find. Try to do an lsof /etc to see if any program is currently holding the directory open. This may give you a clue. Next, shut down various services/programs until you find the offending program. It might be easier to re-install your version of Linux from scratch.
—Christopher Wingert, email@example.com
I can't access my tape! Running dmesg shows:
scsi0 : Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x (EISA/VLB/PCI-Fast SCSI) 5.1.33/3.2.4 <Adaptec AHA-294X Ultra SCSI host adapter> scsi : 1 host. Vendor: ARCHIVE Model: Python 28454-XXX Rev: 4ASB Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Vendor: FUJITSU Model: M1606S-512 Rev: 6236 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Detected scsi disk sda at scsi0, channel 0, id 3, lun 0 scsi : detected 2 SCSI generics 1 SCSI disk total. (scsi0:0:3:0) Synchronous at 10.0 Mbyte/sec, offset 15. SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 2131992 [1041 MB] [1.0GB]
I can access the SCSI disk but not the tape. Both eth0 and aic7xxx are on interrupt 9. I have SCSI tape support compiled in the kernel. This is all on a P133.
—Andy Prowse, firstname.lastname@example.com
Normally, dmesg(8) should show a line referencing st0 as a device found in the summary, just below the entry about sda. See the example below from my own system:
Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0
Your tape drive is being discovered as a "generic" device, but you cannot use mt(1) without the tape driver active. Check your kernel compilation options. Depending on your kernel version, this should be under "SCSI support" and named "SCSI tape support".
—Chad Robinson, email@example.com
I installed Red Hat 7.2 with a network card and successfully connected to the Internet with a cable modem connection hosted on another machine in the network. Now I need to connect to a dialup account. The modem is correctly configured (I can log in successfully). But when I try to work with the dialup account, I am unable to connect to its mail server because my Linux box is using eth0 routes as the default routes. How do I change the routing tables to fix this? I already checked the box to make ppp0 the default connection, but that did not solve the problem.
—Kelvin Barnes, email@example.com
You have a default route going to your Ethernet interface that is superseding the default route added by PPP. You can try route del -net default before bringing your PPP interface up, and then it should work. You also can use the Red Hat GUI to bring eth0 down and back up.
—Marc Merlin, firstname.lastname@example.com
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

AlphaDollars: Forex News!!! Hello, Currency Strategy at Society Generated notes that AUD and CAD are both going to remain vulnerable, with ugly technical pictures matched by commodity price sensitivity and in the cause of the AUD, a central bank that is probably quietly cheering. "AUD/USD now targets the January low at 0.7520, while we expect USD/CAD to break 1.16. Though we are a bit surprised the FX market hasn''t yet differentiated more between tops and lows from this deal and still anticipating an action from them." "Turkey looks like a big short-term winner but the lira is unmoved. If USD/TRY breaks back below 2 (which seems likely), that may be a trigger for more EMFX differentiation." We are expecting very huge returns from these trades. Garry Cloe Director of Forex Department >> more | |

Unlocked iphone Billing procedure (dummys asking)
my uncle will give his iphone to me. Its 2years at&t contract. He bought it at us apple store. And im living in indonesia. If i unlock it, how is the billing procedure? At&t will automatically stop the bill or will still auto debit my uncle's credit card until 2years to fulfill the contract? Sorry for the dumb question

Feb 11, 2013, 09:41 PM | #2 |
It doesnt matter if you unlock your iphones and use it someplace else with a different carrier and different sim.
Your uncle is under contract and he can just use another phone with his simcard. If he closes the account and does not want to use AT&T any more then he will have to pay an early termination fee if he's still under contract. |

He will need to call them and they will tell him the exact amount he will need to pay to end his contract. After he pays the ETF then he can ask them to unlock the phone and you will be ready to use it with any sim card you want. |

If he just leaves and never pays his AT&T bill again or the ETF then it will impact his credit. And if he ever goes back to the US AT&T can file a civil lawsuit against him for the money owed plus interest and legal fees.

Feb 11, 2013, 11:05 PM | #7 |
So, I guess thts a bad idea.. Hehe.. After i browsed few about ETF, its better to pay +-$325 and unlock it via at&t.. Am i right?
0 |
Feb 11, 2013, 11:17 PM | #8 |
Yep, up to you or what he wants to do with his account.
Depending on how many months he has left on the 2 year agreement it could be less than $325. Every month you're with them they take $10 off the ETF. So if he's been under contract for 10 months for example his current ETF would be $225. |

Safest Foley Neighborhoods

Population 15,049
About Foley crime rates
With a crime rate of 48 per one thousand residents, Foley has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 21. Within Alabama, more than 79% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Foley.
Importantly, when you compare Foley to other communities of similar population, then Foley crime rate (violent and property crimes combined) is quite a bit higher than average. Regardless of how Foley does relative to all communities in America of all sizes, when NeighborhoodScout compared it to communities of similar population size, its crime rate per thousand residents stands out as higher than most.
The crime data that NeighborhoodScout used for this analysis are the seven offenses from the uniform crime reports, collected by the FBI from 17,000 local law enforcement agencies, and include both violent and property crimes, combined.
Now let us turn to take a look at how Foley does for violent crimes specifically, and then how it does for property crimes. This is important because the overall crime rate can be further illuminated by understanding if violent crime or property crimes (or both) are the major contributors to the general rate of crime in Foley.
From our analysis, we discovered that violent crime in Foley occurs at a rate higher than in most communities of all population sizes in America.

Xi Stresses Positive U.S. Ties in Lew Meeting (Beijing)
(c) 2013, Bloomberg News.
BEIJING — Chinese President Xi Jinping stressed positive ties with the United States in his first meeting with a foreign official since taking the post amid tensions between the world's two biggest economies over espionage and exchange rates.
The nations' economies have a "seamless connection" and their relationship is of "great importance," Xi, in his sixth day as president, said Tuesday during a meeting with U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Lew, in his first trip since taking office Feb. 28, said they had a "special responsibility" for strong global growth, before reporters were ushered out of the room.
The session with Xi began two days of talks for Lew on topics ranging from the nations' half-trillion dollars in annual trade to accusations that the yuan is undervalued and that China engages in online spying. New Premier Li Keqiang, who will meet with Lew Wednesday, said this week that the country opposes hacking and is a victim of attacks.
"Maintaining a healthy relationship with China is an important task for Mr. Lew," said Eswar Prasad, a former International Monetary Fund official who is now a professor at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. "The U.S. administration recognizes the need to engage with China in a more constructive fashion so that a variety of contentious issues can be dealt with frontally rather than becoming roadblocks to a smoother relationship."
Lew raised the exchange rate, intellectual property, cybersecurity and North Korea during the 45-minute meeting, according to a U.S. official who asked not to be identified. The two also discussed the global economy including Cyprus, according to the official, after a decision by euro-area finance ministers to tax bank deposits in the island nation threatened to revive debt turmoil in the region.
Lew was scheduled to meet Tuesday with Xu Shaoshi, head of the National Development and Reform Commission, and Finance Minister Lou Jiwei, according to the U.S. Li will meet with Lew Wednesday, said Lou Danzhu, an official with China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Xi and Li were named to the two top posts last week, completing a once-a-decade power handover within the Communist Party.
Xi, 59, succeeded Hu Jintao as party chief in November and replaced him as president on March 14. The next day, Li, 57, became head of government as premier, following his appointment as the party's No. 2 official in November.
Lew, 57, will discuss "opportunities for cooperation and growth" and "efforts to level the playing field and create new opportunities for U.S. workers and businesses," the Treasury Department said March 17 in an e-mailed statement.
"The fact that Lew chose China as his first foreign visit and that he will be the new Chinese economic team's first foreign visitor highlights how important each country has become to the other's economic agenda," said David Loevinger, a former senior coordinator for China affairs at the Treasury Department, now an analyst in Los Angeles at TCW Group Inc.

Balancing The Constitution's Stance On GunsMay 5, 2013Our county legislature has had two votes about gun violence, one vote each in its last two sessions. The vote in May was about newspapers printing the names of people who had gun permits.... MonkeyboyDuckster, Mel doesn't reach out he marginalizes people and separates them. He teaches that gays don't deserve equal rights, all religions are inferior to christianity and all christian sects are subordinate to his, Mormons belong to a cult, the poor aren't really trying. You know, the religion of the right-wing. 1 Agrees | 5 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bobbybillAnd Mel, you should be ashamed. A man of the cloth spewing forth the nonsense you come up with. Is that how you reach out? 2 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bobbybillanother guy thinks that you could be sitting in McDonalds when someone comes in guns a blazing? Really? a McDonalds? jeez what's in your water man. 3 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bobbybillthe paranoia of the right is simply amazing. we have a knucklehead here that admits he sleeps with his gun 12" away. I have looked at the crime statistics for the Jamestown area. Not a whole lot going on really and yet he "carries 24 hours a day" to feel safe from the dirt bags? Really? I think there is medication available for extreme paranoia but no cure for being a knucklehead LOL 3 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » MonkeyboyMel, I see nothing in this letter from Hoyer that references God or the Bible. What is your point? 1 Agrees | 4 Disagrees | Report Abuse » 50s4everThe constitution doesn't have to spell out self defense or defense of one's home, family, or property. It is a natural law. 4 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » apologeticsnowMomkey, there is no negative comment from you concerning what Rev. Tim Hoyer, Democrat on the County legislature has said politically and keeps on saying politically to advance his poltical agenda as he is a cleric. What gives? Why not vent the criticism at him like you do me? I have a strong inkling that it is really not about separation of church and state as it separation of certain views that don't agree with yours from political policy. 4 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bluesmanMonkey- I assume you are saying one doesn't need to carry a gun because he will not need to stop a mass shooting. If there isn't going to be anymore mass shootings than why the new gun laws? Sorry to keep asking you hard questions that you'll never answer. 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » MonkeyboySomebody has been watching too many shoot-em-up westerns and wants to be a cowboy in the Wild West. You are too late and you're on the wrong coast. 3 Agrees | 9 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bluesmanMonkey-If you are sitting at McD's and some maniac comes in and starts shooting, do you hope the law-abiding citizen sitting next to you took his gun outside the home? 7 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"Isn't it ironic that after the Boston bombing, the Fort Hood killings and other terrorist acts, the obamists called for America to show patience towards extremist muslims. But after Aurora and Newtown they called for the persecution of law-abiding gun owners?" 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"Today, Washington, D.C. still has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation. And yet again, the gun murder rate remains dramatically high, the highest in the United States in fact. So, do the numbers indicate that gun control is the answer to gun violence?" Of course they don't. Just what some have said right along. Gun control does nothing. 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"Journalist and attorney Jeffrey Scott Shapiro explains the not-so-surprising result in an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal on Jan. 15, 2013: The gun ban had an unintended effect: It emboldened criminals because they knew that law-abiding District residents were unarmed and powerless to defend themselves. Violent crime increased after the law was enacted, with homicides rising to 369 in 1988, from 188 in 1976 when the ban started. By 1993, annual homicides had reached 454. [...] Since the gun ban was struck down, murders in the District have steadily gone down, from 186 in 2008 to 88 in 2012, the lowest number since the law was enacted in 1976." 3 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"But if you look at the data another way -- murders per 100,000 people -- another gun control haven tops the list. The FBI data also notes that Washington, D.C. had the highest murder rate per 100,000 people. The nation's capital saw 12 gun murders per 100,000 in 2011. DC also finished first in gun-related robberies per 100,000 people - with 242.56." 4 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1"Gun control advocates be advised, these are not the statistics you are looking for. According to data from the FBI's uniform crime reports, California had the highest number of gun murders in 2011 with 1,220 -- which makes up 68 percent of all murders in the state that year and equates to 3.25 murders per 100,000 people. The irony of such a grisly distinction is evident when you look at which state was named the state with the strongest gun control laws in 2011 by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. You guessed it -- it was California." 3 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » RegulatorI carry 24/7, except when asleep. Then I have it 12 inches away. No paranoia here. It's simply that if my life is ever in jeopardy by some dirtbag, then I get to live and they don't. What's your choice? 6 Agrees | 1 Disagrees | Report Abuse » MonkeyboyWhat a crippling amount of paranoia it requires to think you need to take a gun with you wherever you go. 2 Agrees | 9 Disagrees | Report Abuse » loneriderrr1Maybe bluesman but I believe it also could be they are just afraid of loud noises. If it goes boom they hide. 4 Agrees | 2 Disagrees | Report Abuse » bluesmanCould it be that the left hates guns because you have to buy them?

A Look Back at Far Niente Spring
Darn, where did those spring flowers go? What an amazing show we had this year in the Far Niente gardens—the best yet in my 11-year tenure as garden curator. Plant maturity has become quite apparent in many specimens throughout the property, and the spring display told the tale.
For those of you who witnessed this episode's drama, I like to think of your enjoyment as an inherent part of our mission. Thank you for your participation, which brings the garden experience full circle.
Flowering began in early February with the giant camellia trees leading the way, followed by our signature azalea beds and on to the towering rhododendrons. We are now moving into the growth phase and keeping up is quite a challenge—feeding, pruning, sculpting, manicuring, and taming the wildness of this ancient Oakville knoll we call home. Working in unison with our partner, Mother Nature, we each have a hand in the balance of creation—growing together to perform on yet another season's magical stage.

Far Niente Spring: The Perfect Backdrop for Napa Cabernet
Spring is in full swing here at Far Niente and, folks, it is absolutely glorious! Thousands of azaleas are soaking up their moments in the sunshine—bright, rich pastels painting the understory canvas in our woodland gardens. There to back them up with an abundance of color and scale are a collection of rhododendrons towering throughout the landscape like dense clusters of butterflies awaiting the spring metamorphosis.
Not to be left out of the dance are the many mature flowering trees: pink and white dogwoods, Chinese perfume (fringe) trees and tulip trees, with deep purple-pinks and whites. Maples awash in deep crimsons, burgundies, blood red and velvety greens make their presence known. Even the mighty, live oaks along with the valley oaks get into the act with their long tendrils of flowers welcoming the rush of spring.
All in all, we are enjoying a feast for the senses here at our winery estate gardens—the perfect backdrop for savoring our Napa Cabernet and Chardonnay.

Far Niente at Winter: A Great Time to Visit
With the winter garden at rest, the naked architecture of the woodlands sets the scene as time appears to stand still. The mighty Black Oak towers in the sky next to the Carriage House. The majestic Valley Oaks feel right at home dotting the woodland gardens. At their feet, dogwoods, magnolias and maples wait for that little glimpse of spring to tickle their branches and awaken the growing season. The long shadows have begun to lift ever so slowly as the days become longer, bringing light and new beginnings.
A Black Oak near the Far Niente Carriage House
Not just yet, I say. Winter is here to stay if only for a few more full moons. This is a time to enjoy the emptiness and simplicity of nature's scaffolding and natural architecture. In time, will we be blessed with a new canopy of texture and many beautiful flowers, as if a flight of butterflies have suddenly burst into a visual symphony. Here at Far Niente, the magic is year-round…
Our lovely Japaense Maple
The winter months are a lovely time to visit. Call ahead for an appointment: (707) 944-2861.

Our Autumn Vegetable Garden
As I walked through the new raised beds at the Far Niente culinary gardens, the smell of autumn hits me. The leaves are blowing in the air and all around the hint of fermentation: the fall harvest is on. And not just for the grapes but also for the squash, eggplants, beans, tomatoes of all kinds, corn and many fruits. The citrus trees are swollen and will bear in late autumn, early winter.
Over the summer we installed 23 new, lined, raised beds made of redwood each at 3' wide and 18" tall. The lengths vary from a 65 foot herb bed to 25 and 35 foot vegetable beds. This layout allows for a magical jaunt through a maze of beds and trellised archways. We like to grow plants vertically as much as possible to maximize the space. It's a wonderland to feast upon—literally. There's always something different and tasty.
I love seeing the Chef Trevor's culinary creations that come from our gardens. Autumn is a great time to sow all kinds of lettuces, cabbage, romanesco, broccoli, cauliflower and much more. Enjoy the bounty and the fruits of our labor at winery events planned throughout the coming year.
Stay tuned—our 2013 events calendar will be posted in December.

Composting at Far Niente
Landscape Designer Daniel Townsend shares the reward and satisfaction of composting at Far Niente.
We are deep into our frigid winter with mid- to low-20s, cold for the Napa Valley. I see a plume of steam on our compost pile. I investigate and find that our pressure cooker beneath the mound is a comfortable 82 degrees Fahrenheit, nearing the end of the cook cycle.
We compost most everything from our gardens and winery, using all of the leaf litter from the woodland gardens, grass clippings, wood chips, and grape harvest materials, such as seeds and stems, must or pumice, and grape vine cuttings. We make about 150 yards of compost a year here in the Far Niente gardens. It is very rewarding to sink your hands into this black gold and to be able to introduce this back into the gardens, coming full circle again and again.

Giraffe Calf Born at Zoo
For immediate release:
July 12, 2011
Melinda Arnold, Public Relations Director
417-833-1570 (office)
Springfield, Mo. - A male giraffe was born this afternoon a little after 1:30 p.m., at Dickerson Park Zoo. The mother, Kamili, will be 12 years old in August; this is her sixth calf. Kamili gave birth in the zoo's exhibit yard while curious zoo guests and watchful zookeepers observed.
The opportunity for the public to participate in naming the calf will be announced tomorrow on the zoo's Web page and Facebook page.
Kamili was born at Utah's Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City in August 1999. She came to Dickerson Park Zoo when she was 14 months old. The calf was sired by the zoo's long-time breeding male, Stretch; Stretch died last December. A giraffe's gestation is between 14 and 15 months.
Guests can view Kamili and her calf in the exhibit yard along with Gidget and Billie, a 17-month-old female. Three giraffes are in an adjacent yard.
Dickerson Park Zoo is open daily 9 a.m.-5 p.m. through the end of September, including summer holidays. For more information, visit the zoo online at www.dickersonparkzoo.org, or call the zoo's information hotline, 417-864-1800.

In a prepared statement, Tomblin praised the efforts of the two troopers and the deputies who responded to the shooting in August. "Their purpose on this earth was to face the dangers and make the world safe for the rest of us," Tomblin wrote.
"They don't do it for the money, they don't do it because it's comfortable," he wrote. "They do it because they're called. We call men like that heroes."
Tomblin presented the troopers' families, the deputies and Massey with special certificates at Monday's ceremony. Cabell County Sheriff Tom McComas, president of the West Virginia Sheriffs' Association, presented an award to Massey and presented Belt, Legg and Davis with Combat Crosses.
McComas said it was easy to run away from danger. Deputies like those who responded to the shootings of Bailey and Workman, "run in to trouble," he said.
McComas said Massey was the real first responder on the scene of the shooting, and praised the tow truck driver for his bravery.
Westfall, still wearing a cast from the shooting, was presented with the Purple Heart. The Roane County deputy said he will never forget seeing an armada of flashing blue lights coming for him after he was hit.
"You don't know what that's like, knowing everyone's coming to your aid," he said. "It's a good feeling knowing those guys are out there."

Poured from a bottle with a clear yellow color, plenty of bubbles, and a foamy white head that disappears quickly. The aroma is lemon and wheat. Taste is lemon, wheat, and a nice touch of tartness. The beer has a light to medium body feel and crisply refreshing. This was a surprise to me. I was expecting something light and uninteresting, but got something much more enjoyable.

Windows 7 pre-orders big in Europe
A discounted offer for Windows 7 appears to be selling out quickly in Europe.
In addition to an apparent sellout at some Amazon sites and at spots in Germany, Microsoft's European online store was apparently overwhelmed by demand, meaning that those who turned up to buy the software were instead greeted with a multilingual error message.
"Due to the eagerly anticipated Windows 7 pre-order offer we're experiencing a higher level of demand on our website than usual," Microsoft said in the English-language posting. "This means you can't access the site right now and we'… Read more

- wavern1955 gay I'd have to say south park is gay Reply
- TotallyEpicHD I think that it will come down to Cancelled vs Christian Rock Hard or Lil' Crime Stoppers in the finals. Reply
- stanmarsh1999 Season 7 South Park is Gay, It's Christmas in Canada, Red Man's Greed, Butt Out, Krazy Kripples, Casa Bonita, and Toilet Paper are my round one picks. Round two: South Park is Gay, Red Man's Greed, Casa Bonita, and Christian Rock Hard. Round three: South Park is Gay, and Casa Bonita. Final: South Park is Gay! But that is just my opinion (and yours hopefully!). Reply
