[JURIST] The Judicial Conference of the United States voted Tuesday to ask Congress to create 11 new court of appeals judgeships and 46 new district court judgeships. Read a press release [PDF] from the Administrative Conference of the US Courts and review an associated release on rising caseloads in the federal courts [PDF].
[JURIST] The Bush administration plan to invade Iraq is contrary to basic rules of the UN Charter requiring exhaustion of peaceful means of maintaining international security and permitting use of force in self-defense only in response to an actual or imminent attack, according to a statement released Tuesday by the Lawyers' Committee on Nuclear Policy (LCNP) and Western States Legal Foundation (WSLF). LCNP president Peter Weiss said, "The suggestion by Anne-Marie Slaughter in today's New York Times that the war may be 'illegal but legitimate' and that 'insisting on formal legality may be counterproductive' is shocking beyond belief, coming from the current president of the American Society of International Law."
[JURIST] The New-York based Center for Economic and Social Rights released a report Tuesday saying that war against Iraq is "unequivocally illegal under the UN Charter and international law generally."
The U.S. and U.K. now seek to justify war on the grounds that Iraq intends to acquire and use weapons of mass destruction against them at an unspecified point in the future. Yet despite advanced intelligence-gathering capabilities, neither country has presented any credible evidence that Iraq still possesses any proscribed weapons, let alone the intent and capacity to use them in an imminent attack. After conducting more than 550 inspections in almost four months, UNMOVIC teams have not uncovered evidence that Iraq maintains either stocks of such weapons or the operational capacity to deploy and deliver them against the U.S. or U.K. Even Iraqs neighbors have rejected the argument that military intervention from outside powers is necessary under the right of collective self-defense to protect them from an imminent Iraqi threat.Under these circumstances, war against Iraq would violate any reasonable interpretation of either the Charters limited provision for self-defense exception or the customary law principle of preemptive self-defense. The potential threat Iraq poses to the U.S. and U.K. is not imminent, unavoidable, or even particularly credible. Launching a massive invasion to overthrow its government and occupy itsterritory in response to a dubious hypothetical future threat is neither a necessary nor proportionate response. In essence, the U.S. and U.K. argument for preemptive strike closely resembles the longdiscredited doctrine of preventive war, definitively abolished after World War II.
[JURIST] UN chief weapons inspector Dr. Hans Blix spoke to the media at the United Nations Tuesday afternoon. UN News Service reports:
"I don't think it is reasonable to close the door to inspections after three and a half months," Mr. Blix, Executive Chairman of the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC), said in answer to questions during a briefing of the UN Correspondents Association in New York. He added that he did not think Security Council resolution 1441, adopted in November, foresaw such a short inspection time.... Mr. Blix, who is to discuss a work plan of remaining disarmament issues tomorrow at the Security Council, also said the inspectors had never asserted that Iraq had any remaining weapons of mass destruction, only that there were a lot of things unaccounted for. It would be interesting, he added, to see what would come out when people go in and can go anywhere and examine the sort of intelligence the inspectors never had access to.He also said he did not think Iraq would use chemical or biological weapons in a war with a US-led coalition, although it had the know-how to produce and deliver chemical weapons. "I think it is unlikely they will do that because I think world public opinion, which they study quite a lot, is in large measure feeling that going to war is too early," he said. "So there is a fair amount of scepticism about armed action. That scepticism would turn immediately around if they used chemical weapons or biological weapons. My guess is they would not."
[JURIST] After an eight-hour debate, British Prime Minister Tony Blair won a House of Commons vote to support military action in Iraq by a margin of 412-149, with an unfriendly amendment failing by 396-217. The amendment was supported by 139 MPs from Blair's own Labour Party [party website], making it the largest backbench revolt in Labour Party history. Watch a video of comments after the vote by Labour chairman Dr. John Reid [BBC].
[JURIST] Watch recorded video from the UN of comments Tuesday by ambassadors from Security Council members Germany and Angola looking ahead to Wednesday's Security Council session on Iraq, at which the Council will receive the latest reports on weapons inspections. Given developments Monday, the ambassadors were unsure whether all member Foreign Ministers would attend or what progress could be made, especially now that inspectors were no longer on the ground in Iraq. But the German ambassador insisted that the inspection system could be reactivated.
[JURIST] Tuesday's Los Angeles Times notes that American international law scholars are divided on whether military action against Iraq would be legal:
Many experts in international law question the legal basis for war, since the United Nations did not authorize the use of force to oust Saddam Hussein, either in 1990 or last fall. But other legal scholars say they agree with U.S. and British authorities that Hussein's failure to fully comply with the agreements that ended the 1991 Persian Gulf War justifies a new war to remove him from power...."I think most international lawyers would say the use of force against Iraq is clearly unlawful without a second resolution," said American University law professor Robert K. Goldman. "The original resolution [in 1990] never authorized military action to remove Saddam. Bush's father [President George H.W. Bush] spoke quite clearly on that and said going to Baghdad would exceed the U.N. mandate." Tufts University law professor Michael J. Glennon agreed, saying that "this is the easiest argument to dismiss. The Security Council did not authorize the use of force against Iraq beyond removing it from Kuwait." The recent Resolution 1441 is not clear one way or the other, Glennon added. "That's the only legal leg they have to stand on," he said. "The resolution is vague, and it can be interpreted in different ways." The U.S. and British officials have stressed that the November resolution speaks of Iraq's being in "material breach" of its duties. This implies that Iraqis had a duty to come clean or face "serious consequences." But the French, Germans and other foes of a war say the resolution set up a process for inspections and disarmament, not a trigger for military action. Had the Iraqis blocked the inspectors, "that would have given the U.S. the trigger" to undertake war without a follow-up resolution, said Duke University law professor Scott Silliman. Though chief weapons inspector Hans Blix criticized the Iraqis, he did not pronounce them in material breach of the resolution, Silliman said. "The whole key to which side you come down on on this issue is who becomes the arbiter of what is a material breach of 1441 and who has the authority to use force," said Silliman, a former Air Force attorney. It "takes us out on thin ice" to say the U.S. or Britain can decide unilaterally who is in violation of U.N. mandates, he said. But supporters of the Bush administration say the U.N. resolutions set out the demands that Iraq had to meet, and thus justify a military response for its failure to comply. "Resolution 687 [calling for Iraq to rid itself of chemical and biological weapons] gives you plenty of legal authority to go into Iraq," said Yale University law professor Ruth Wedgwood. She also said the U.S. had never taken the rigid view that it could not take military action without the approval of the Security Council. In 1999, the U.S. undertook a bombing campaign in Yugoslavia's Kosovo province with NATO, but not U.N., approval, she said.
[JURIST] Eric Muller [Is That Legal? blog] at the University of North Carolina School of Law is concerned about the temporary detention of asylum seekers [Is That Legal? post] from countries with known terrorist ties announced by Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge as part of Operation Liberty Shield, the domestic security plan announced Monday evening in connection with a likely war in Iraq:
Details on this plan are quite sketchy right now. I looked but found nothing on the question of how long "temporary" will be, what the conditions of detention will be, and even which countries are affected. (Right now all that is being reported is that the plan will affect asylum seekers from "Iraq and over 30 other countries.")I reserve judgment on the plan until I can see the details, but I confess that I'm initially a bit wary. The administration has, until now, not been able to draw a persuasive connection between Iraq and terrorist attacks inside the USA by people from other Arab and/or Muslim countries. I can certainly see the sense in temporarily detaining Iraqi asylum seekers. But what, other than ethnicity-based speculation and fear, is behind the notion that, say, an Algerian or Yemeni asylum seeker might in fact be a person intent on committing pro-Iraqi acts of terrorism?
[JURIST] A United Nations spokesman said Tuesday afternoon that the last UN personnel had left Baghdad:
The spokesman said the last plane evacuating the more than 300 international staff in Iraq had already taken off from Baghdad for Larnaca, Cyprus. Secretary-General Kofi Annan yesterday ordered the withdrawal of all UN personnel, including UNMOVIC and IAEA inspectors, the UN Office of the Iraq Programme and UN agencies, programmes and funds implementing the oil-for-food programme, after receiving information from the United Kingdom and United States regarding the continued safety and security of UN personnel.
[JURIST] UK Prime Minister Tony Blair's opening statement in Tuesday's House of Commons debate on military action against Iraq is now online in recorded video from 10 Downing Street. On the legality of military intervention, the Prime Minister said: "I have never put our justification for action as regime change. We have to act within the terms set out in Resolution 1441. That is our legal base." A print transcript of the complete speech is also available.
[JURIST] A third Senate cloture vote to limit debate on the filibustered nomination of Miguel Estrada to the US DC Circuit Court of Appeals failed Tuesday by a margin of 55-45 [roll call vote], according to the Senate website. UPDATE [7:37 PM ET]: Senate Judiciary Committee Ranking Democrat Senator Patrick Leahy commented today:
I have served in the Senate for 29 years, and until recently I have never seen such stridency on the part of an administration or such willingness on the part of a Senate majority to cast aside tradition and upset the balances embedded in our Constitution, in order to expand presidential power. What I find unprecedented are the excesses that the Republican majority and this White House are willing to indulge to override the constitutional division of power over appointments and longstanding Senate practices and history. It strikes me that some Republicans seem to think that they are writing on a blank slate and that they have been given a blank check to pack the courts.
[JURIST] Speaking Tuesday to the German people in a televised address, Chancellor Gerhardt Schroeder expressed his opposition to President Bush's policy on war against Iraq:
Does the extent of the threat that emanates from the Iraqi dictator justify the use of war, something that will bring certain death to thousands of innocent men, women and children? My answer in this case was and still is: No! Iraq is now a country subject to extensive UN monitoring. What the Security Council has demanded in the way of disarmament steps is being fulfilled more and more. As such, there is no reason to interrupt this disarmament process now.
[JURIST] The Geneva-based International Commission of Jurists [advocacy website] said Tuesday it was "deeply dismayed" that "a small number of states are poised to launch an outright illegal invasion of Iraq, which amounts to a war of aggression.":
The United States, the United Kingdom and Spain have signalled their intent to use force in Iraq in spite of the absence of a Security Council Resolution. There is no other plausible legal basis for this attack. In the absence of such Security Council authorisation, no country may use force against another country, except in self-defence against an armed attack... A war waged without a clear mandate by the Security Council would constitute a flagrant violation of the prohibition of the use of force. Security Council Resolution 1441 does not authorise the use of force. Upon its adoption, France, Russia and China, three permanent members of the Security Council, issued a declaration indicating that the Resolution excludes such authority. The bottom line is that nine members of the Security Council, including the five permanent members, need to actively approve the use of force - such support is blatantly lacking.
[JURIST] The UN has announced that it has reached a draft agreement with the government of Cambodia under which persons can be prosecuted under Cambodian law for crimes committed during the period of Democratic Kampuchea. Speaking in Phnom Penh, UN Legal Counsel and head of the UN delegation Hans Corell said that the draft was "designed to ensure a fair and public trial by an independent and impartial court." Get more details from the UN, and background documentation from the Khmer Rouge Trials Task Force of the Royal Government of Cambodia. Mr. Corell had previously discussed his goals for negotiations in his JURIST op-ed column Justice for the Killing Fields: Re-negotiating the Khmer Rouge Genocide Court for Cambodia, published on March 11, just prior to his departure for the Cambodian negotiations.UPDATE [9:02 PM ET]: At a press briefing at UN Headquarters Tuesday, Hans Corell said time was of the essence in setting up the Cambodian tribunal: ""The trials will focus on senior leaders and they are pretty aged, and as you know the person responsible for the government in those days is already dead.... That's why its important that the trials can be held before those who will be the focus of the trial are too old to stand." More details on the press briefing are now available from the UN.
[JURIST] A lawyer in India e-mails JURIST's Paper Chase:
Are we on the eve of a war? Is it too late for taking a chance with peace? America is not wrong. Iraq is not right. But is it something that concerns only these two countries? What can international law and lawyers do to diffuse the situation? Are we only fit to dissect and display the problems after the "battle is lost and won"?.... If there are world citizens anxious to see world peace maintained the best effort is to come from the legal community. I don't think it is an Utopian or a Quixotic idea. We believe in the establishment of the Rule of Law. [What if] the UN General assembly is summoned on an emergency basis[?].

[JURIST] US Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia spoke Monday at the University of Toledo School of Law [official website]. The Toledo Blade reports... The Tuesday edition of the Harvard Crimson says that with the Harvard Law School [official website] dean search underway, the time is right for the University and Law School administrations to address problems of prevailing student dissatisfaction.
[JURIST] French President Jacques Chirac issued a statement Tuesday in Paris assailing the "unilateral decision to go to war" and saying that President Bush's ultimatum to Iraq is "calling into question our idea of international relations". Chirac concludes:
Iraq does not today present an immediate threat warranting an immediate war. France appeals to everyone to act responsibly to ensure the respect of international legality. It appeals to them to maintain the Security Council's unity by staying within the framework set by UNSCR 1441. To act outside the authority of the United Nations, to prefer the use of force to compliance with the law, would incur a heavy responsibility.
[JURIST] The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia has issued a press release announcing that "the Milosevic trial will not sit today, Tuesday 18 March, 2003 due to the ill health of the accused".UPDATE [12:40 PM ET]: The ICTY press office now has announced [ICTY press release] that the Milosevic trial is adjourned for tomorrow, Wednesday, as well.
[JURIST] The Australian newspaper Tuesday carries a column by 21 law professors and lawyers asserting the legality of an attack on Iraq:
Much of the present debate on Iraq is premised on the assumption...that the Security Council has not already endorsed the use of force. An opposite and plausible case can and has been made on the basis of the wording of resolutions already adopted.Resolution 1441 was carefully and deliberately framed in terms that could be read to permit the use of force. It was adopted under Chapter VII which allows the council to adopt mandatory action to deal with threats to the peace, breaches of the peace and acts of aggression.The resolution says that Iraq remains "in breach of its material obligations" under previous Chapter VII resolutions, has a "final opportunity to comply" and failing compliance will "face serious consequences". It explicitly recalls Resolution 678 (1990), which authorised "all necessary means" to restore peace and security in the region and Resolution 687 (1991) which established the conditions for the cease-fire after the Gulf War.By its terms, Resolution 1441 clearly viewed the use of force against Iraq not in isolation but rather as a continuation of measures taken in the wake of Saddam Hussein's illegal invasion of Kuwait.
[JURIST] Sanford Levinson [faculty profile] of the University of Texas School of Law will be speaking on law and torture at UT Law's Faculty Colloquium series this Friday. His paper 'Precommitment' and 'Post-Commitment': The Ban on Torture in the Wake of September 11 [DOC] is now available online.
[JURIST] Devika Hovell and George Williams of Australia's University of New South Wales Faculty of Law say that the legal justification for war against Iraq proffered early Tuesday by the government of Australian Prime Minister John Howard is weak. Read their op-ed in Wednesday's Sydney Morning Herald.
[JURIST] Matthew Heppold of the University of Nottingham School of Law says that the UK Attorney General's legal defense of the use of force against Iraq - previously reported in JURIST's Paper Chase - is a "weak case".
According to Lord Goldsmith, authority to use force exists by virtue of the combined effect of security council resolutions 678, 687 and 1441. Resolution 678 (1990) was adopted by the security council in response to the Iraqi invasion and occupation of Kuwait. It authorised the US-led coalition to use "all necessary means" to liberate Kuwait and restore peace and security to the region. Hostilities in the Gulf war were then terminated by resolution 687 (1991), which imposed a long list of obligations on Iraq, including several regarding disarmament. Iraq is in breach of these obligations. Resolution 1441 (2002) found it to be in "material breach". In consequence, according to Lord Goldsmith's argument, the authorisation to use force granted to the US and the UK by resolution 678 has been reactivated.Resolution 1441 gave Iraq a "final opportunity" to comply with its disarmament obligations and warned of "serious consequences" if it did not. It did not expressly require a new resolution before force can be used. All that is needed is an Iraqi failure to comply with 1441 and the reporting to and discussion of that failure by the security council. Had a further security council decision been required to sanction the use of force, said Lord Goldsmith, resolution 1441 would have said so specifically.There are, however, a number of problems with Lord Goldsmith's analysis. In the first place, the general view is that security council authorisations of force are only for limited and specific purposes. In the case of resolution 678, the authorisation to use force terminated with the adoption of resolution 687. It cannot be revived in completely different circumstances some 12 years later....In the second place, Lord Goldsmith's arguments have been used before and have been rejected. Throughout the 1990s, the US and the UK sought to justify the bombing of Iraqi military facilities by arguing that they were responding to breaches of Iraq's obligations under resolution 678. In early 1998, after Iraq's withdrawal of cooperation with the UN weapons inspectors, the US and the UK threatened to use force "to enforce the Security Council's will". The threat was lifted when the UN secretary-general, Kofi Annan, visited Baghdad and secured an agreement permitting the return of the weapons inspectors....In the third place, resolution 1441 does not do what Lord Goldsmith says it does. It does not authorise the use of force. The term "serious consequences" is not UN code for enforcement action. Once again, the majority of members of the security council rejected automaticity. Even US Ambassador John Negroponte said that the resolution "contained no 'hidden triggers' and no 'automaticity' with the use of force".

The Oklahoma Dept. of Transportation continues to seek public input on the future development of the Oklahoma City Boulevard. The new street is part of the re-alignment of Interstate 40 near downtown.
Many residents expressed concern over early versions of the boulevard during a series of public meetings on the proposal, which included a longer elevated portion of the roadway.
While the State of Oklahoma won the Supreme Court Water War with Texas, its in-state skirmish is still simmering.
This battle — between the state and the Choctaw and Chickasaw nations — is being waged within Oklahoma's borders. But unlike the Red River water dispute, reports from the front lines of Oklahoma's tribal water war are sketchy and scarce. The Associated Press' Tim Talley explains news drought:
A day without pay, the first of 11 through September, comes this week for more than 650,000 people who hold civilian jobs with the Defense Department.
Officials worry that the Pentagon will be hit even harder by layoffs in 2014 if automatic budget cuts continue.

The Boeing 777 that crash-landed in San Francisco has one of the best safety records in the industry. In addition to the plane's solid reputation, many other factors helped save lives in Saturday's crash — from fire-rescue training to aircraft design.
If you look at pictures of the gutted, charred fuselage of Flight 214, you'd wonder how anybody made it out alive. All but two of the 307 passengers and crew survived. Both people killed were teenage girls from China.

An already dangerous, volatile situation turned even deadlier early Monday in Cairo when dozens of people were killed at a protest outside the Republican Guard facility where it's believed ousted President Mohammed Morsi is being held. Most of those who died are reported to have been among a large group of Morsi's supporters.

The Oklahoma Tax Commission says the state could lose as much as $450 million if a court ruling about a capital-gains tax deduction stands.
The Tulsa World reports the Tax Commission this week asked the Oklahoma Supreme Court to overturn a lower court ruling or prevent the ruling from being applied retroactively.
In January, the Court of Civil Appeals said a state law was unconstitutional. That law treats capital gains tax deductions of Oklahoma-based companies differently from those of out-of-state companies.

Asiana Airlines Flight 214 tried to abort its landing and come in for another try just 1 1/2 seconds before it crashed Saturday at San Francisco airport, killing two people and injuring dozens of others.
That was the information gleaned from the jetliner's cockpit voice recorder, the head of the National Transportation Safety Board said at a Sunday news conference. NTSB chief Deborah Hersman also said about seven seconds prior to impact, there was a call to increase speed.

Egyptians remain deeply divided about which direction their country should go as supporters and opponents of ousted Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi are turning out Sunday to voice their opinions in separate rallies.
NPR's Greg Dixon filed this story for our Newscast Unit:
"Hundreds of thousands of opponents of deposed President Morsi have come here, Tahrir Square, in the center of Cairo to show their support for the toppling of his government.

When hosting a Node.js application, you may want to ensure that your application uses a specific version of Node.js. There are several ways to accomplish this for applications hosted on Windows Azure.
Currently Windows Azure provides Node.js versions 0.6.17, 0.6.20, and 0.8.4. Unless otherwise specified, 0.6.20 is the default version that will be used.
If you are hosting your application in a Windows Azure Cloud Service (web or worker role,) and it is the first time you have deployed the application, Windows Azure will attempt to use the same version of Node.js as you have installed on your development environment if it matches one of the default versions available on Windows Azure.
You can specify the version of Node.js to be used by adding the following to your package.json file:
Where version is the specific version number to use. You can can specify more complex conditions for version, such as:
"engines":{"node": "0.6.22 || 0.8.x"}
Since 0.6.22 is not one of the versions available in the hosting environment, the highest version of the 0.8 series that is available will be used instead - 0.8.4.
If you are hosting the application in a Cloud Service, and are deploying the application using Windows Azure PowerShell, you can override the default Node.js version by using the Set-AzureServiceProjectRole PowerShell cmdlet. For example:
Set-AzureServiceProjectRole WebRole1 node 0.8.4
You can also use the Get-AzureServiceProjectRoleRuntime to retrieve a list of Node.js versions available for applications hosted as a Cloud Service.
While Windows Azure provides several default versions of Node.js, you may want to use a version that is not provided by default. If your application is hosted as a Windows Azure Web Site, you can accomplish this by using the iisnode.yml file. The following steps walk through the process of using a custom version of Node.Js with a Windows Azure Web Site:
Create a new directory, and then create a server.js file within the directory. The server.js file should contain the following:
var http = require('http'); http.createServer(function(req,res) { res.writeHead(200, {'Content-Type': 'text/html'}); res.end('Hello from Windows Azure running node version: ' + process.version + '</br>'); }).listen(process.env.PORT || 3000);
This will display the Node.js version being used when you browse the web site.
Create a new Web Site and note the name of the site. For example, the following uses the Windows Azure Command-line tools to create a new Windows Azure Web Site named mywebsite, and then enable a Git repository for the web site.
azure site create mywebsite --git
Create a new directory named bin as a child of the directory containing the server.js file.
Download the specific version of node.exe (the Windows version) that you wish to use with your application. For example, the following uses curl to download version 0.8.1:
curl -O http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.8.1/node.exe
Save the node.exe file into the bin folder created previously.
Create an iisnode.yml file in the same directory as the server.js file, and then add the following content to the iisnode.yml file:
nodeProcessCommandLine: "D:\home\site\wwwroot\bin\node.exe"
This path is where the node.exe file within your project will be located once you have published your application to the Windows Azure Web Site.
Publish your application. For example, since I created a new web site with the --git parameter earlier, the following commands will add the application files to my local Git repository, and then push them to the web site repository:
git add . git commit -m "testing node v0.8.1" git push azure master
After the application has published, open the web site in a browser. You should see a message stating "Hello from Windows Azure running node version: v0.8.1".
Now that you understand how to specify the version of Node.js used by your application, learn how to work with modules, build and deploy a Node.js Web Site, and How to use the Windows Azure Command-Line Tools for Mac and Linux.

If price is no object, I'll spend $4 a ball on the Pro V1x and be a happy camper. But price is an object. I've played most of the competitors urethane covered balls and only a couple track well in the wind, have good distance and play well around the green. The Callaway Hex Black and the Wilson FG Tour X. The Wilson at it's current price around $25 is hoard worthy. It's as long or longer than the Titleist, although the Titleist is a little softer around the green and easier to stop. But for my game, the Wilson gives the best performance/price ratio available.If you have the swing speed to compress it, you'll love it.
Need to try these fg tour x it is a great golf ball. I'm 64 and have 92 mph swing speed and it's no problem to get this ball going, It stops like it hit a wall with your irons and putts great. and these guys have a great price . Just a little more money than a two piece ball and will stop on the green.

Mossberg® 535 ATS Shotgun - Realtree MAX-4®
Sale price: Clearance price: Starting at: Sale starting at: Clearance starting at: Reg. price:
The Mossberg 535 ATS Shotgun was spawned by the successes of the 3" chambered 500 and the 3-1/2" chambered 835. This high performance pump action takes 2-3/4", 3" and 3-1/2" shotgun shells to handle any of your shotgun hunting opportunities without compromise. The sleek profile of the 535 ATS barrel coupled with a shortened magazine tube provides comfortable balance and swing. Comes with accu-set of chokes, 4 + 1 capacity, front fiber optics, and synthetic stock.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MrSunset universal soldier
I bought the 535 slugster and an extra smooth bore barrel both cantilevered. I put a carson coyote choke and a Nikon Monarch turkey pro scope. this is a super sweet set up to 50, yes 50 yards. now the rifled barrel has a Nikon scope as well but in a variable. using Remington copper sabots I put three in the red at 100 yards. big smile. Note: all in 3" shells. It is my pride and joy in field shotgun. I have some other shotguns but this is my "go to".
confidence, confidence, confidence.

I have the 535 in the turkey field combo. This gun holds a great pattern. I have an Indian Creek Turkey Choke tube that performs great with this gun.

I got this gun for Christmas and so far i put 2 boxes of shells threw it and i love it! I got the waterfowl camo and it looks great. It also has a red dot at the end of the gun which make it so much easier to shoot the clay targets.

No, you will need a cantilevered barrel for a scopeA:
For a sling? yesA:
..the field M2 does not have holes pre-drilled for a scope. The slug M2 does, also has iron sights, front and rear. You can buy a slug barrel for the field M2, but it's over $500, and has iron sights, not sure about scope mounting to that barrel?A:
If you're asking about the receiver being drilled and tapped for a scope, yes it does. If you're asking if the barrel has holes drilled in it (aka ported), no it doesn't.1 of 1

Great quality real wood chairs. I bought an unfinished pair to stain to match adult chairs. Expect them to last and become family heirlooms.

Comments about Little Colorado Child's Sunroom Adirondack Rocking Chair:
This rocker (red) was bought for my grandson for his second birthday. Height for sitting is perfect and the chair does not slide back when he backs up to it to sit. He uses it to watch is DVDs and just to rock, and gets in and out of it with no problem. It's great to look at and is in the living room at his home. Great product!

Comments about Little Colorado Child's Sunroom Adirondack Rocking Chair:
When I got the box in the mail, I thought I would have a bunch of small parts to put together. It was easiest product I put together this year. I had a lot of products for chrismas that needed to be put together. The paint on the item is thick and feels that it will stand the test of time. My daughter loved it and has been sitting in it all day. It is just the right size for my 4 year old and will be for awhile, 1-2 more years.

The company has expanded its nine-month-old Growth Accelerator program, which sets annual sales targets for specific partners and increases rebates if they exceed the targets. Rather than covering only products from HP's imaging and printing group and enterprise servers and storage division, the program now covers both storage and services independent of servers.
HP's data center servers and storage sales figures are higher now than they were a couple of years ago, but the company still has to work overtime to make sales outside its existing customer base, according to
Requires Free Membership to View
"They do a good job selling into their base, but they need to turn the tables and sell into EMC accounts, sell storage into a customer with a Sun system," he said. "They also have to increase their attach rates so they sell HP storage when they sell HP servers, rather than let the storage go to HDS or IBM or whatever. They need to catch more of that across all price bands."
The new version of PartnerOne increases a partner's margin every time that partner exceeds one of a series of sales goals or receives additional technical certifications covering HP servers and storage.
HP is also easing requirements within its program for partners selling to the federal government to allow them to qualify for Storage Elite and Blade Elite status -- which bring additional discounts and benefits.
In addition, HP is making it easier for server and storage partners to get paid by cutting out some of the red tape in its Attach Plus Update program, through which partners receive rebates on sales of HP products. The new version rewards partners for every dollar's worth of HP gear they sell; the older version used a payment structure that increased only as partners passed specific sales goals.
Taken as a whole, the changes only indicate that HP is increasing its commitment to indirect sales and working to keep partners on its team, according to Janet Waxman, a channel business analyst at IDC.
"Overall, [HP] is doing fine," she said. "They're just securing their borders."

very good
I dug out a 2008 issue of "Best Loved Cookies & Bars" to start my holiday baking. Found this recipe and made them today. I have never felt the need to write a review, until now. These cookies are yummy! and I'm not a star baker :) The orange zest brings all the ingredients together. If I can make these cookies so can you !!!! Enjoy and thanks Pat for sharing your recipe. Now, I think I'll have to make more, cause my husband just walked out with 2 dozen of them for meeting :) Happy Holidays !!!!
These cookies have become a tradition at Christmas. Always on the gift cookie trays.
This recipe is excellent. My son's teenage friends "beg" me to make these. I also made them for my mother-in-law to take to her 50th High School reunion (10 dozen) and there wasn't a one left. I'm making them today to take to her house for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Excellent, excellent recipe!!!!!
I used dried cranberries, left out the raisina and I added 1 tsp of cinnamin.
Very good

Poem Title:
Though loth to grieve The evil time's sole patriot, I cannot leave My buried thought For the priest's cant, Or statesman's rant. If I refuse My study for their politique, Which at the best is trick, The angry muse Puts confusion in my brain. But who is he that prates Of the culture of mankind, Of better arts and life? Go, blind worm, go, Behold the famous States Harrying Mexico With rifle and with knife. Or who, with accent bolder, Dare praise the freedom-loving mountaineer, I found by thee, O rushing Contoocook! And in thy valleys, Agiochook! The jackals of the negro-holder. The God who made New Hampshire Taunted the lofty land With little men. Small bat and wren House in the oak. If earth fire cleave The upheaved land, and bury the folk, The southern crocodile would grieve. Virtue palters, right is hence, Freedom praised but hid; Funeral eloquence Rattles the coffin-lid. What boots thy zeal, O glowing friend, That would indignant rend The northland from the south? Wherefore? To what good end? Boston Bay and Bunker Hill Would serve things still: Things are of the snake. The horseman serves the horse, The neat-herd serves the neat, The merchant serves the purse, The eater serves his meat; 'Tis the day of the chattel, Web to weave, and corn to grind, Things are in the saddle, And ride mankind. There are two laws discrete Not reconciled, Law for man, and law for thing; The last builds town and fleet, But it runs wild, And doth the man unking. 'Tis fit the forest fall, The steep be graded, The mountain tunnelled, The land shaded, The orchard planted, The globe tilled, The prairie planted, The steamer built. Live for friendship, live for love, For truth's and harmony's behoof; The state may follow how it can, As Olympus follows Jove. Yet do not I implore The wrinkled shopman to my sounding woods, Nor bid the unwilling senator Ask votes of thrushes in the solitudes. Every one to his chosen work. Foolish hands may mix and mar, Wise and sure the issues are. Round they roll, till dark is light, Sex to sex, and even to odd; The over-God, Who marries Right to Might, Who peoples, unpeoples, He who exterminates Races by stronger races, Black by white faces, Knows to bring honey Out of the lion, Grafts gentlest scion On Pirate and Turk. The Cossack eats Poland, Like stolen fruit; Her last noble is ruined, Her last poet mute; Straight into double band The victors divide, Half for freedom strike and stand, The astonished muse finds thousands at her side.

Seth MacFarlane Engages in Transphobia to Defend his Transphobia
Aug 12, 2010 | Posted by: womanistmusings | Full story: www.womanist-musings.com
If you look up the term fauxgressive, I am quite sure MacFarlane's face would be front and center. He says all of the right bullshit, but when it is time for him to earn money, the man has no problem pushing every ism that he can think of. Some would say that he picks on everyone and that this therefore makes his television shows acceptable, but if you really study "The Cleveland Show" and "The Family Guy," you will notice that the people he seems to pick on the most, constitute the most marginalized in society. When marginalized people complain about the way they are portrayed on MacFarlane's shows, we are told that we are being to sensitive and that it is just a joke. Why take any of it seriously, they are after all just cartoon characters right?
MacFarlane recently gave an interview to Details magazine and in it he discussed the negative reaction of the GLBT community to his latest trans episode.
while I understand peoples frustration so to speak..I will not begrudge Seth McFarland,and he's ALWAYS has been a supporter for LGBT people..and he show Family Guy makes fun of EVERYONE!

Judged: 2 1 They WERE the greatest show on earth for the first several years, but have gotten sort of tired lately. I was their biggest fan in those days and still watch out of loyalty. It gets harder to do. The shows are overwrought and too cutesy now. The animation has improved, but the stories have suffered. I heard one of the voice actors on a talk show..I'm sorry..I forget his name..."Mr. Burns", and "Smithers" and "Principal Skinner" and HE said he is ashamed of the shows they are putting out, but he admits he likes the huge pay checks. He actually has gotten into trouble for his remarks, but he still stands by them. |
Since: Apr 10 588 |
If you take time to watch this episode of the show you will see that alot of the issues we face as trans folks, yeah alot of stuff was left out but for goddesses sake its a 30 min comedy cartoon, IT IS TO MAKE YOU LAUGH not teach issues to the american public. I am a MTF Transsexual in transition right now and i laughed through the entire episode (other then the Brian puking part, that was standard Family Guy, and it got taken to far) Family Guy in a nutshell is fart, penis, and other gross bodly parts and functions jokes, with a talking homicidal baby thrown in for good measure. This was not the first time the show has refrenced TS in the movie "Stewies untold story" we find out Meg is FTM as in the future she is Ron, and in one episode Stewie is dressed up as a girl, Brian askes him how he feels and he says "Right, I feel right" once again ITS A FUNNY CARTOON stop being all rightous about it and just laugh
I'm glad you have a sense of humor about it. His shows make fun of everyone and everything. He takes the most shots at straight white males most of the time. That particular show was actually, ignoring the vomiting, kind of touching at the dad's coming to terms with himself before his surgery. Good for you for having a sense of humor about yourself.

I agree. The quality has gone down. But I still watch it and still enjoy it. I was a BIG fan of "The Tracey Ullman Show" where they first appeared. The Simpsons Movie" which I saw in the theatre was HORRIBLY BAD.:( And there one of the few shows with gay characters. Speaking of tv shows. Is anyone besides me watching Degrassi ? They have some good gay characters on that including the captain of the high school football team. |

Sounds like Canada. |
I would accept this episode as distasteful humour if it was not for Seth Macfarlane's comments about it. He stated that he thought he was trying to be sympathetic to transpeople when his episode clearly was not. He also said that Brian's reaction is because he is heterosexual, comparing it to "a gay man looking at a vagina." This is atrociously transphobic, so heterosexual men shouldn't date transwomen? If he had simply said that it was a joke and that he wasn't trying to show support for the trans-community (who clearly hate him now) then I would find his behaviour a lot more tolerable.
The quotes I refer to can be found here: http://www.metroweekly.com/news/last_word/201... |

Why does anybody care about what theses celebrities believe. I sure don't. I would like to do megan fox. Beyonce. Or katy perry and I may like some of their songs or movies but I sure don't care about what they believe
United States |
Family guy is the best show on tv
so true bro so true |
Its a joke people, its playing on stereotypes, on top of that, Brian knew the trans character when he was a man, which, honestly, would gross out most heterosexual men. The best rule with comedy is that if it isn't offending someone then its not funny, GET THE FUCK OVER IT!!

Purpose: Why Do I Exist?
Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever. Westminster Confession of Faith
The Problem
Achieving goals becomes an unrelated string of hollow victories, increasingly frustrating as more and more is achieved.
The problem with goals is that you have to keep setting new ones because achieving them doesn't provide lasting satisfaction.
The fleeting satisfaction of a met goal begs the question, "Is there something bigger for my life than the routine of setting and meeting goals?"
Identity Versus Purpose
Identity answers the question, "Who am I?" We derive identity from understanding our relationship with God.
Purpose answers the question, "Why do I exist?" The only purposes that will survive are the ones linked to God.
Goals Versus Purpose
Goals are near-term; whether or not they can be met can be determined.
Purpose reflects our examination of life's larger meaning.
Goals are what we do. Purpose is why we do what we do.
Eternal Purpose Versus Earthly Purpose
God's eternal purpose for us is to seek His kingdom, by which we enjoy Him forever.
His earthly purpose for us is to seek His righteousness, by which we glorify Him.
Earthly Purpose
There is a sense in which all men are alike, God gives all men the same
earthly purpose:
What we are to be (character).
What we are to do (conduct).
There is a sense in which each of us is unique, God gives each of us a specific call on our lives --
earthly purpose. A
Life Purpose Statement
encompasses what you discover as God's personal earthly purpose for your life.
Begin to sketch out a purpose statement for your life.

Definition of 'Deductible'
1. The amount you have to pay out-of-pocket for expenses before the insurance company will cover the remaining costs.
2. An amount subtracted from an individual's adjusted gross income to reduce the amount of taxable income. Also known as "tax deductible." |
Investopedia explains 'Deductible'
1. For example, if you get into an accident and your medical expenses are $2,000 and your deductible is $300, then you would have to pay the $300 out-of-pocket first before the insurance company paid the remaining $1,700. However, if your accident only resulted in $300 in medical expenses, then you would pay the $300 deductible and the insurance company would pay nothing.
2. There are many types of expenses you can use to reduce the amount of your taxable income such as healthcare expenses, interest expenses (i.e. mortgages, car loans), legal fees and investment-related expenses. However, for those with brokerage accounts, fees such as commissions paid for trades are not deductible. |

This year the Jamboree will be held on the new property of the BSA, The Summit Bechtel Family National Scout Reserve. This New propery will be the first National Jamboree, and is also scheduled to host the World Jamboree in 2019.
NOW! We would like to take 360 Boy Scouts (10 Troops X 36 Scouts per Troop) if not more.
ArtCreative Design and Custom coding;feature=player_embedded">Check out what you could be experencing here
Many parents feel that they can't afford to send their son to the National Jamboree because of cost. Attending a National Scout Jamboree is a once in a lifetime opportunity for most Scouts. Keep in mind that this is the first time at the Summit. Each Jamboree, Scouts have earned their ENTIRE way by fund raising. Early on, Scouts can raise money on their own. Many of the Jamboree Troops will also have fund raising opportunities as well.
Click on the Fund Raising link to view just some of the ways that Scouts are earning money to pay their way to Jamboree. There will also be a SCRIP opportunity as well. Details of that program will be announced at a later date.
You can click here to make a Jamboree Payment. If you have any questions or can't remember your sign-on information please contact the council office.
Unlike your normal troop campouts the Jamboree is restricted to 4 adults and 36 youth. The adult selection process will happen this year and in fact your Jamboree leaders will be training as soon as they are picked. If you know a scout leader that is interested please have them sign up.
The 2013 National Jamboree is offering a scholarship. Download the form here.

Unlike some programs that are designed to deal with a single topic (like
fixing VBR headers or adding cover art), MP3 Diags is a one stop solution
that identifies more than 50 different issues in MP3 files and provides the
means to fix many of them (well, not everything is fixable; you can't make
a 64kbps file sound like a 256kbps one.)
Some of the more important issues that are found:
* broken tags / headers / audio
* duplicate tags / headers
* incorrect placement of tags / headers (ID3V2, ID3V1, LAME, Xing)
* low quality audio
* missing VBR header
* missing track info / cover art
* broken track info / cover art
* missing normalization data
* character encoding issues (for languages other than English)
Some of the fixes and changes that MP3 Diags can do:
* Adding / fixing track info, including album cover; information can
be retrieved from several sources: Internet, clipboard, file name,
local files, and (obviously) keyboard
* Correcting files that show incorrect song duration
* Correcting files in which the player cannot seek correctly
* Converting characters for non-English names
* Adding composer name to the artist field, for players that don't
handle the composer field
* Renaming files based on their fields
* Changing word case for track info | ||
