Peace Through Strength
How no-nonsense negotiations can prevent a war with Iran.
Peace through strength. It's a philosophy that guided the United States to victory in the Cold War and a policy that protected us from the calamity of nuclear war. But in the heated debate over Syria, our commitment to this approach has wavered -- and it's time we reasserted its prominence.
Some say that America's credibility was threatened when President Barack Obama drew a red line on the use of chemical weapons and then allowed the Syrians to cross it without repercussions. We couldn't disagree more -- that would be a profound misreading of Obama's response to the Syrian civil war. Our nation's democratic principles give priority to the voice of individual liberties and freedoms. We will defend them with all of our nation's might. We will not allow any nation or group to terrorize the free world -- now or ever.
But foreign policy can often be a jumble of contradictions. Global enemies of the last decade can be our allies in today's conflicts. Our friends could be our enemies tomorrow. As a result, we need to evaluate each foreign policy situation on its own merits and be open to new ideas -- new approaches to resolve old conflicts.
The world is changing quickly. Americans are now targets in Kenya. The great civilizations of the last millennium are descending into chaos. Christians are being attacked in Syria and Pakistan. Jews are being attacked in European cities, and Israelis now don gas masks in preparation of the regionalization of the Syrian conflict.
As the same time, we've also seen rapid diplomatic developments in the war in Syria that show the power of blending our military might with aggressive diplomacy. We should seek to repeat this elsewhere -- and it should start with Iran.
As Western nations sit down with Iran this week in Geneva, we should vigorously support efforts to negotiate a diplomatic solution that ensures Iran has no nuclear weapon capability and that it does not share its technology with other nations. We should also maintain -- and even strengthen -- the sanctions that have helped to bring Iran back to the negotiation table. And yes, we should keep all options on the table to ensure that Iran is not just stalling for time, but truly being transparent about its technology and its intentions.
The world should be on notice: the United States will act with overwhelming force if it is attacked -- or if vital national security interests are at stake.
In the case of the Syrian civil war, there is no clear American interest. In fact, U.S. intervention might upset the stability of the region and work against our national security interests. By going into a war on the same side as al Qaeda and other Islamic extremists, we might end up aiding the cause that attacked America on 9/11. While Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is clearly a bad guy, there is no clear military objective in Syria.
Still, some argue that North Korea and Iran could be emboldened if the United States elects not to use force against Assad.
This is simply not true. North Korea sits atop a stockpile of weapons in close proximity to tens of thousands of U.S. troops. If Pyongyang ever used these weapons against our troops, they would see a massive response from the United States. The American people would be united, and Congress would declare war in a heartbeat. For anyone to think otherwise -- be they a hawkish American pundit or a North Korean despot -- is crazy.
Likewise, Iran -- or any nation developing nuclear weaponry -- should not doubt the military strength and unified approach of the American people toward the terrorizing of U.S. citizens and allies in Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Nor should these nations doubt that international resolve will coalesce and extract harsh penalties on nations that pursue these activities. Ultimately, the United States cannot and will not take any option off the table in order to protect Israel and other regional democracies, and to deter Tehran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
Going forward, the United States should dramatically increase our political and diplomatic efforts to halt Iran's nuclear weapons program, and we should do so alongside all interested parties. Russia and China both trade with Iran and will be a key part of the solution.
Iran will be the next test for U.S. foreign policy after Syria. The administration should re-engage now -- it can't simply sit back and wait until a military strike is the only option. This will mean employing carrots as well as sticks -- like harsher sanctions but openness to dialogue. This will mean transparent inspections of nuclear facilities that yield trustworthy information or additional consequences that guarantee Iran isn't just playing for time. We need to ensure the Iranian regime gets clear messages about the ramifications of any hostility towards America, Israel, or regional allies.
Peace through strength is not a lonely position. In fact, there are numerous voices in the United States and in Israel calling for more political and diplomatic pressure and engagement. And many are cautioning against an Iranian (or Syrian) policy that focuses exclusively on a preemptive strike -- including a former U.S. Army Chief of Staff, a former head of the U.S. Air Force, and recent heads of the Mossad and Shin Bet.
American foreign policy leaders should heed this advice -- and learn the lessons of recent entanglements. We can and must use military force when necessary, and be willing to leave the option on the table when our security is threatened. However, we also need to engage politically and diplomatically to further our interests -- as well as the interests of our allies -- as long and as often as possible.
In the past, America's winning strategy was to seek peace through strength. It's a philosophy that served us back then -- and one that will serve us again in the future.

We recently celebrated Pastor's Appreciation Day at Lynwood Drive Church of God. I love our pastor, Johnny Hefner, very much. He is a very good man and is always there when you need him no matter day or night. He is a very caring man and lets Jesus be No. 1 in his life. I know he knows how much we appreciate him and the life he lives for Jesus.
I am a native South Carolinian who normally sits back and observes what is going on around him. But this past Memorial Day morning as I sat at my computer watching the sun slowly creep up, I was inspired to speak my mind about the goings on of this great county we live in.
I don't want to cause trouble but as a son of a Vietnam veteran, the grandson of a World War II veteran, the great nephew of several uncles who were stationed at Pearl Harbor that December morning, I would like for people to stop and think long and hard before heading into the voting booth this November.
My name is Bruce Miller and I am, in my opinion, the only Republican candidate for the S.C. House of Representatives District 45 seat. Also, in my opinion, I only have one Democratic opponent, Donald Huffman.
You may ask why I am making such a bold statement, when everyone knows there is one other Republican and two additional Democrats who have filed for this position.
I pose one important question – where are they?
I am upset and disturbed by the seeming lack of concern shown by the other, unnamed candidates.
I am supporting the reelection of Wayne Kersey for Lancaster County Council District 7. I personally have known Wayne and his wife, Faye, for most of my adult years. We attended and were members together for many years at Antioch Baptist Church.
His son and wife are members and a vital part of our Sunday school and church family at Covenant Baptist Church. I also patronize their businesses.
I feel as though I can speak concerning the quality of his character.
Wayne and his wife are small business owners. They make a modest living and live in a modest home.
Today's the big day for Lancaster County high school graduates.
This day stands as the hour you've worked for since you launched your education career in kindergarten with the 1995-96 school term.
Today as those cameras flash with toothy grins and proud parents, take a moment to reflect on your journey.
It's been a long road, one filled with challenges and new horizons. No doubt there's been peaks and valleys along the way.
In the last few weeks we have reported about the layoffs at Springs Memorial Hospital, the possibility of job losses at the Lancaster County School District, pleas from nonprofit agencies for continual funding and the inability of a local philanthropic organization to offer free summer camp for at-risk children this year.
Add to that $4 per gallon gas, high unemployment, decreasing home values, increasing food costs and you get a bleak picture of our economy.
I wanted to commend senior reporter Jenny Hartley for her outstanding work to put animals in the limelight and on the front cover of The Lancaster News. As a teacher and an animal lover I am flabbergasted by the amount of people who treat animals as if their lives were completely expendable. However, it is individuals like you who have a voice and can shed some light on the cruel world of animal abuse and neglect.
I was shocked and dismayed to read that the Lancaster School District did not close in observance of Memorial Day. Does the school district not have history books in the schools? Do school board officials not know of the supreme sacrifice so many brave Americans have made to defend our freedoms? Do they not care about the loss so many millions of American family members endured so we all can enjoy life, liberty and pursuit of happiness?
What is the school district teaching our children by its callous attitude toward our fallen heroes?

Giant turtle-devouring duck-billed platypus discovered
(11/04/2013) Based on a single tooth from Australia, scientists believe they have discovered a giant, meter-long (3.3 feet) duck-billed platypus that likely fed on fish, frogs, and even turtles, according to a new study in Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. At least twice the size of a modern duckbilled platypus, the scientists say the extinct giant likely lived between 15 and 5 million years ago.
Nutrient deficiency in Amazon rainforest linked to megafauna extinction
(08/12/2013) Around twelve thousand of years ago, the Amazon was home to a menagerie of giant creatures: the heavily armored glyptodons, the elephant-sized ground sloth, and the rhino-like toxodons among others. But by 10,000 B.C. these monsters were largely gone, possibly due to overhunting by humans or climatic changes. There's no question that the rapid extinction of these megafauna changed the environment, but a new study in Nature Geoscience posits a novel theory: did the mass extinction of big mammals lead to nutrient deficiency, especially of nitrogen, in parts of the Amazon rainforest?
Giant prehistoric freshwater turtle discovered
(05/18/2012) Researchers working in Colombia has discovered the fossilized remains of a giant freshwater turtle that lived some 60 million years ago.
Humans killed off magnificent Australian megafauna, flipping rainforest into savannah
(03/27/2012) The theory that humans, and not climate change, was primarily responsible for the extinction of giant marsupials in prehistoric Australia takes another step forward with a new study in Science. Exploring sediment cores for past evidence of big herbivores, researchers found that the arrival of humans coincided with the loss of a menagerie of magnificent beasts, from giant kangaroos to fearsome marsupial lions and monster birds to Komodo dragon-like reptiles. The decline of this megafauna ultimately led to ecological changes that may have caused Australia's rainforest to become savannah.
Meet the dinosaur that looks like a crow
(03/08/2012) The more we discover about dinosaurs, the more these "terrible lizards" resemble otherworldly birds. None more so than the microraptor, which paleontologists have meticulously reconstructed in a paper in Science. Not only was the microraptor about the size of a modern-day crow, it looked very crow-like according to paleontologists, even down to the discovery that it sported dark iridescent feathers, the first yet recorded in nature.
Carbon emissions paving way for mass extinction in oceans
(03/05/2012) Human emissions of carbon dioxide may be acidifying the oceans at a rate not seen in 300 million years, according to new research published in Science. The ground-breaking study, which measures for the first time the rate of current acidification compared with other occurrences going back 300 million years, warns that carbon emissions, unchecked, will likely lead to a mass extinction in the world's oceans. Acidification particularly threatens species dependent on calcium carbonate (a chemical compound that drops as the ocean acidifies) such as coral reefs, marine mollusks, and even some plankton. As these species vanish, thousands of others that depend on them are likely to follow.
When giant coyotes roamed the Earth
(02/27/2012) Not long ago, geologically speaking, coyotes (Canis latrans) were bigger and more robust than today's animals. In the late Pleistocene, over 10,000 years ago, coyotes rivaled grey wolves (Canis lupus) in size. But, according to a new paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), coyotes shrunk significantly following the megafaunal extinction—including the disappearance of big herbivores like giant sloths and mastodons and predators like the smilodon—due to changes in prey and predator competition.
Paleontologists reconstruct extinct, "elegant" penguin
(02/27/2012) Around 25 million years ago a penguin with a long, sharp beak and massive flippers lived in a New Zealand that was almost entirely underwater. The bird, named Kairuku after a Maori word that means "diver who returns with food," was first discovered in 1977, but has only recently been reconstructed by scientists in a study in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.
Jurassic insect sings again
(02/06/2012) Innovative research has made a long-extinct katydid—which inhabited the world of dinosaurs like stegosaurus, allosaurus, and diplodocus—sing again. The discovery of an incredibly well-preserved fossil of a new species of katydid, dubbed Archaboilus musicus, gave biomechanical experts the opportunity to recreate a song not heard in 165 million years according to new research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Interview with conservation legend, Richard Leakey
(11/28/2011) Following in his family's footsteps, Dr. Richard Leakey, is considered the heir to the scientific legacy of his parents, Louis and Mary Leakey, icons in the field of paleoanthropology. Dr Richard Leakey has been credited with some of the field's most successful paleoanthropologic finds, including a near complete, groundbreaking, Homo Erectus fossil dubbed 'Turkana Boy'. The scientific contributions of the Leakey family have reshaped our views of the origins of mankind and shed new light on the history and shared ties of the human family.
Scientists discover giant species of crocodile; luckily it is extinct
(09/15/2011) Researchers excavating a coal mine in Colombia have discovered a previously unknown species of prehistoric crocodile. The beast is described in the September 15 issue of the journal Palaeontology.
World's sixth mass extinction still preventable
(03/03/2011) So, here's the good news: a mass extinction, the world's sixth, is still preventable. But the bad news: if species currently threatened with extinction vanish—even over the next thousand years—homo-sapiens will be the first single species responsible for a mass extinction. Comparing today's current extinction crisis with the big five that occurred in the past, a new study in Nature finds that while the situation is dire, the choice is ultimately up to humanity. "If you look only at the critically endangered mammals—those where the risk of extinction is at least 50 percent within three of their generations—and assume that their time will run out, and they will be extinct in 1,000 years, that puts us clearly outside any range of normal, and tells us that we are moving into the mass extinction realm," explains lead author Anthony D. Barnosky, UC Berkeley professor of integrative biology.
King of dinosaurs was a hunter, not a scavenger
(01/26/2011) Ecologists say they have used a computer model to put to rest a nearly century-old debate. Did Tyrannosaurus Rex, one of the world's most well-known dinosaurs, hunt down its prey like a lion on the plains, or, instead, did it scavenge meals from other hunters like a vulture? According to scientists with the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) the Tyrannosaurus had only one choice in order to survive: hunt.
Picture: scientists identify first known single-fingered dinosaur
(01/25/2011) Paleontologists working in China have discovered a first for dinosaurs: a species with only one finger. Named Linhenykus monodactylus, the extinct species stood only about two feet high and weighed about as much as a large parrot. Although small, the new dinosaur was a member of the carnivorous therapod dinosaurs, which include the infamous Tyrannosaurus Rex. The find was announced in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Extinct giant stork towered over 'hobbits' on Flores
(12/07/2010) Scientists have discovered an extinct massive stork, standing nearly 6 feet tall (1.8 meter) and weighing 35 pounds (15 kilograms), which would have shared the island of Flores with the 'hobbits'—dwarf hominin species known as Homo floresiensis—reports the BBC. According to the researchers the meat-eating stork was big enough to prey on young Homo floresiensis, and stood about 2 and a half feet (0.8 meters) above adult hobbits.
Amazon biodiversity older than believed
(11/11/2010) A new study in Science has found that the incredible biodiversity of the Amazon rainforest goes back much further than expected, perhaps upending old ideas about how the Amazon basin became arguably the world's most biodiverse ecosystem. According to the study, the origin of rich biodiversity in the Amazon likely goes back more than 20 million years when the Andean mountains were rising.
Rainforests thrived in warmer conditions in the past, yet study requires "caution"
(11/11/2010) A new study in Science is likely to reopen the contentious debate about the impact of climate change on tropical rainforests. Scientific modeling of future climate conditions in tropical rainforests, such as the Amazon, has shown that climate change—combined with deforestation and fire—could create a tipping point whereby a significant portion of the Amazon could turnover to savannah, pushing untold species to extinction and undercutting the many ecosystem services provided by tropical rainforests. Yet, a new study headed by Carlos Jaramillo, staff scientist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI), has found a tropical forest ecosystem thriving in much warmer conditions than today.
Monster turtle killed off by man
(08/17/2010) Researchers have linked another extinction to human beings: this time of a massive prehistoric horned turtle. Prehistoric turtles in the Meiolania genus were thought to have vanished some 50,000 years ago. However, scientists have found a new species that was likely wiped out by human hunters much more recently.
Prehistoric snake gobbled-up dinosaur babies
(03/02/2010) A fossilized snake has been discovered inside a titanosaur nest in India, leading researchers to conclude that the snake fed on newly-hatched dinosaur babies, rather than their eggs like modern snakes. Paleontologist and snake expert Jason Head says that the snake, known as Sanajeh indicus, lacked the wipe-jaws needed to swallow eggs, but just-hatched baby titanosaurs would have been perfect prey for the 3.5 meter (nearly 12 feet) long serpent. Titanosaurs belong to the sauropods, long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs which includes the world's largest animals to ever walk the land.
New study: overhunting by humans killed off Australia's megafauna
(01/21/2010) For over a century and a half researchers have debated whether humans or climate change killed off Australia's megafuana. A new paper in Science argues with new evidence that Australia's giant marsupials, monstrous reptiles, and large flightless birds were brought to extinction not by an unruly climate, but by the arrival of humans.
Natural rafts carried Madagascar's unique wildlife to its shores
(01/20/2010) Imagine, forty million years ago a great tropical storm rises up on the eastern coast of Africa. Hundreds of trees are blown over and swept out to sea, but one harbors something special: inside a dry hollow rests a small lemur-like primate. Currents carry this tree and its passenger hundreds of miles until one gray morning it slides onto a faraway, unknown beach. The small mammal crawls out of its hollow and waddles, hungry and thirsty, onto the beach. Within hours, amid nearby tropical forests, it has found the sustenance it needs to survive: in a place that would one day be named Madagascar.
After years of controversy: Flores 'hobbits' are a new species of humans
(11/19/2009) When the 'hobbits' were discovered in 2003 they made news worldwide, sparking visions of a world our small relations lived among giant rats, dwarf elephants, and lizards bigger than the Komodo dragon. The small hominin fossils discovered on the island of Flores in Indonesia proved just how little modern humans knew about our deep ancestry. While researchers instantly claimed that the 'hobbits' were a new species of hominin other scientists disagreed: they argued that the 'hobbits' were modern humans that had been dwarfed by disease. A new study inSignificance hopes to put the controversy to rest.
Extinct goat was "similar to crocodiles"
(11/16/2009) It sounds like something out of Greek mythology: a half-goat, half-reptilian creature. But researchers have discovered that an extinct species of goat, the Balearic Island cave goat or Myotragus balearicus, survived in nutrient-poor Mediterranean islands by evolving reptilian-specific characteristics. The goat, much like crocodiles, was able to grow at flexible rates, stopping growth entirely when food was scant. This adaptation—never before seen in a mammal—allowed the species to survive for five million years before being driven to extinction only 3,000 years ago, likely by human hunters.
Arctic lake undergoing unprecedented changes due to warming
(10/19/2009) The Arctic should be growing cooler, but a new sediment core taken from an Arctic lake reveals that the lake's ecology and chemistry has been transformed by unnatural warming beginning in the 1950s. The sediment core proves that changes happening in the lake during the Twentieth Century are unprecedented over the past 200,000 years. Headed by University of Colorado scientist Yarrow Axelford, the study retrieved the sediment core from the bottom of a thirty foot deep lake on Baffin Island. Importantly the sediment core goes back 80,000 years further than any other core retrieved from the Greenland ice sheet, providing researchers with the longest timescale yet of changes in the Arctic climate.
Present day tropical plant families survived in warmer, wetter tropics 58 million years ago
(10/18/2009) Fifty eight million years ago the tropical rainforests of South America shared many similarities with today's Neotropical forests, according to research published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Looking at over 2,000 fossils in Colombia from one of the world's largest open pit coal mines, scientists were able to recreate for the first time the structure of a long vanished rainforest. One inhabited by a titanic snake, giant turtles, and crocodile-like reptiles.
Age of the Amazon River estimated at 11 million years
(07/08/2009) A new study, published in the journal Geology, estimates the age of the Amazon river at 11 million years.
48 'new' species of dinosaur discovered
(02/09/2009) In just four years a University of Portsmouth palaeontologist has discovered 48 new species from the age of the dinosaurs.
Missing link between fish and land animals discovered
(11/07/2008) A study published in the October 16 issue of Nature details research
into and implications of a fossil fish, Tiktaalik roseae, discovered
last year at Ellesmere Island in Canada. The Devonian fossil shows an
array of features found in both terrestrial and aquatic animals,
providing the best glimpse so far into the transitory period during
which vertebrates were able to adapt to life out of water. The find
provides some of the first osteological evidence of neck development,
a crucial adaptation to terrestrial life because it allows an animal's
body to remain stationary while it surveys its environment.
Humans - not climate - drove extinction of giant Tasmanian animals
(08/11/2008) Humans — not climate change — were responsible for the mass extinction of Australia's megafauna, according to a new study published this week in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
10-pound 'Giant Frog From Hell' discovered in Madagascar
(02/18/2008) Researchers have discovered the remains of what may be the largest frog ever to exist.

New duck-billed dinosaur discovered in Mexico
(02/12/2008) A previously unknown species of dinosaur has been discovered in Mexico, shadding new light on the history of western North America, report researchers from the Utah Museum of Natural History at the University of Utah.
Global warming to increase insect attacks on plants
(02/11/2008) Global warming will increase attacks on plant leaves by insects, reports a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Mini-pterodactyl discovered in China
(02/11/2008) Scientists have discovered a previously unknown species of pterodactyl in northeastern China.
2,000 pound rodent discovered
(01/16/2008) Scientists have discovered the remains of an extinct 2,000 pound rodent -- the largest rodent ever known. The find is described Wednesday in Britain's Proceedings of the Royal Society.
Despite Arctic crocodiles, glaciers existed during extreme global warming 90M years ago
(01/10/2008) Massive glaciers extended across 50-60 percent of Antarctica some 91.2 million years even as crocodiles roamed the Arctic and surface temperatures of the western tropical Atlantic Ocean climbed to 37 degrees Celsius (98 degrees Fahrenheit), reports a study published in the journal Science.
Evolution of whales challenged
(12/19/2007) Modern whales appear to have evolved from a raccoon-sized creature with the body of a small deer, according to scientists writing in the journal Nature. The results challenge the theory that cetaceans are descended from even-toed ungulates (artiodactyls) like hippos, as previous molecular analysis has suggested.
Prehistoric Carnivorous Fungi Lassoed its Prey
(12/13/2007) Scientists have discovered the oldest known carnivorous fungus, according to a study published in Science.
Massive carnivorous dinosaur discovered
(12/11/2007) A massive carnivorous dinosaur discovered in Niger has been described as a new species, according to research published in current issue of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.
Cow-like dinosaur discovered
(11/15/2007) A dinosaur discovered in the Sahara had a mouth that worked like a vacuum cleaner and operated more like a "Mesozoic cow" than a reptile, report researchers writing in today's issue of the journal PLoS ONE.
Chocolate first used more than 3100 years ago
(11/12/2007) Cacao, the source of chocolate, was in use at least at least 3000 years ago according to evidence found by archaeologists working in Honduras. The discovery pushes back the earliest known use of cacao by 500 years.
Missing link between humans and apes possibly discovered
(11/12/2007) A 10 million-year-old jawbone discovered in Kenya may represent a new species very close to the last common ancestor of gorillas, chimpanzees, and humans, report researchers writing in the current issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Climate change did not cause extinction of Neanderthals
(09/12/2007) Researchers in Europe have found evidence that rules out a "single climatic event" as factor in the extinction of Neanderthals.
Dinosaurs' rise to dominance was a gradual
(07/19/2007) Dinosaurs' rise to dominance was a gradual rather than sudden, suggests new research published in Science.
Pygmy panda discovered in China
(06/18/2007) Researchers have discovered an extinct pygmy panda in the tropical forests of China.
Ancient gliding reptile discovered
(06/12/2007) A remarkable new long-necked, gliding reptile discovered in 220 million-year old sediments of eastern north America is described in the latest issue of the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology (Vol. 27, No. 2), scientists report. Mecistotrachelos apeoros (meaning "soaring, long-necked") is based on two fossils excavated at the Solite Quarry that straddles the Virginia-North Carolina state line.
Tyrannosaurus rex was slow
(06/07/2007) Tyrannosaurus rex was a slow, lumbering beast according to new research published in the Journal of Theoretical Biology.
Dinosaurs could swim
(05/24/2007) Researchers found evidence that terrestrial dinosaurs were capable of swimming. Examining fossilized footmarks left on the floor of an ancient lake bed in northern Spain 125 million years ago, scientists led by Loic Costeur of the Universite de Nantes in France said the tracks were left by a swimming meat-eating dinosaur.
Possible baby dinosaur tracks discovered near Denver
(05/24/2007) A researcher may have discovered incredibly rare dinosaur tracks of baby stegosaurs near downtown Denver, reports the Denver Post.
Prehistoric bear-like beast discovered in North Dakota
(05/24/2007) The skeleton of a 60-million year old bear-like beat was discovered at an oil drilling site in the North Dakota Badlands, reports the Associated Press.

So the 2009 NFL Draft kicks off at 2 p.m. MDT Saturday afternoon, and DenverBroncos.com has got you covered.
(Check out the Broncos 2009 Draft page here.)
Starting about an hour before the draft begins, we'll begin a live blog that will run all the way through the end of the first round. There you can discuss any big moves or surprises in the early goings of the draft, as well as comment on the Broncos' first round selections — Nos. 12 and 18.
We'll keep you up-to-date on all the picks and any moves the Broncos make.
In addition, Broncos TV will have exclusive footage of Head Coach Josh McDaniels, General Manager Brian Xanders and the rest of the front office in the Broncos' "War Room" at Dove Valley as they prepare to make the team's first two selections.
We will also post video and information on all 10 of the team's draft picks from both days to go along with quotes from McDaniels and the draftees.
There will be daily wrap-ups on Saturday and Sunday, as well.
On Sunday, for rounds 3-7, we will begin a blog in the morning that will be updated when the Broncos make their selections. In addition, the team's two first-round selections are scheduled to arrive at Dove Valley Sunday, so we will have video of their introductory press conference.
In other words, DenverBroncos.com has all of the Broncos draft day coverage you need. So stick with us on Saturday and Sunday as the team makes two first-round selections for the first time in franchise history, and amasses the most picks in one draft since 1999.

The State Farm "Journey" ad is beginning to annoy me.
Can not ******* stand the Subway Taste Fairy commercials...
The marketing team that created those ads should have their flesh stripped from their bones and impaled at the stake...
I get so mad when those come on TV that I had to boycott Subway for a very very long time.
How come nobody mentioned the Carls Jr/Hardees commercial?
If by Hardees you mean the one with Kate Upton in the car mowing down on her burger. Then no, I hope that commercial is on til the end of time.
I actually like the Genghis grill commercials. Probably in the minority on that one
"I have eaten children much larger than you"
gengis khan commercial
I'm not sure why local companies in Iowa insist on having commercials with little jingles in them. They are all terrible songs and make me want to puke.

Flo is annoying and so are those stupid commercials with the pig going "Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!"
I can't stand either one and change the channel or mute it.
Any commercial by any insurance company. They are are all terrible.
I thought I was the only one -- I want to give that guy a wedgie every time I see that commercial. I also hate that mediacom one where the mom says "Here ya go pumpkin, draw a picture while I make dinner," and all of the crayons are pink, and the kid yells "MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAmmmmmmm!" Sooo annoying.

This Easter season, school papers at dozens of major universities across the U.S. will feature advertisements headlining the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Thousands of professors will display their names under those headlines, publicly declaring their belief in the resurrection.
The evangelistic ad is nothing new. In fact, it's been a practice of many Christian university educators for years. However, this Easter many campuses are participating in a nation-wide campaign sponsored by Christian Leadership Ministries that will expose an estimated one million students to the claims of Christ.
Besides sponsoring evangelistic ads on campuses, faculty expect to distribute a total of more than 100,000 articles on the resurrection by author Josh McDowell, and give open lectures on the meaning of Easter.
At Easter and several other times during the year, many Christian faculty groups use evangelistic ads in school newspapers to present a Christian dialogue to their entire campus.
Why is it important for Christian faculty to identify themselves corporately? Many students, based on their educational experience, believe well-informed, intelligent, educated people cannot accept Christianity as a valid belief. A corporate expression of faith can point non-Christian students and faculty to professors who can guide them to spiritual truth.
The university experience also can have an eroding effect on the faith of Christian students. A faculty ad can encourage students who share their faith and therefore experience criticism from the secular community.
In addition, a raised awareness of the number and influence of Christian faculty on campus lends Christian faculty a sense of identity and provides a source of encouragement. It also rallies other Christian professors to take a stand for Christ.
Perhaps the most effective means for faculty to transmit a corporate expression of faith on a campus is through an evangelistic advertisement in the school newspaper.
Since the idea began at Wichita State University in the mid 1980's, faculty groups at 69 campuses around the country have sponsored more than 300 evangelistic ads with over 4,000 faculty participating. Today, most university groups that participate sponsor three to five ads a year.
Dr. Richard Stroshine, professor of agricultural engineering at Purdue University, said that he and other faculty met periodically to pray for guidance in their desire to present a positive Christian witness on campus.
"We decided an advertisement in the school newspaper was a worthwhile project that could be quickly and easily organized. We sent a sample ad to Christian friends and associates on campus with a letter inviting participation.
"Subsequently, we have sponsored ads at Easter, Christmas, and the beginning of the school year. We pray for the ads before and during the time they appear and for the witness of the people whose names appear on the ads.
"There have been at least two major benefits from the ad. It has brought Christians on campus closer together and it has served as a starting point for other organized activities."
Dr. John H. Kennedy, professor of chemistry at the University of California at Santa Barbara, said that in 1985 the Christian faculty on his campus began with an ad signed by 12 faculty, and by 1990 it had risen to over 100 participants.
"Over the years," said Kennedy, "many students have contacted faculty members participating in the proclamation. It seems especially encouraging to Christian students who sometimes think they are the only Christians on campus.
"An important side benefit has been the opportunity for Christian staff and faculty members to get better acquainted. Finally, the list of participants on the proclamation provides a basic mailing list to inform other Christian faculty and staff of planned activities."

Geekologie Review: Blood Energy Potion
I drank this stuff, it was good. It's thick and tastes like Hawaiian Punch concentrate. They recommend you put it in the microwave for 14 seconds to heat it up to body temperate. I did that. That made it warm. It was weird warm. Like licking a fresh wound, but sweeter. I think it gave me superhuman strength and speed but I won't know for sure till after I whip this nancy Edward Cunnilingus' pale ass.
Synthetic blood substitute. The fruit punch flavor packs 4 hours of energy along with iron, protein, and electrolytes. Not only does Blood Energy Potion have a similar nutritional makeup to real blood, but it has the same color, look, and consistency. Get real blood nutrients without that real blood taste! Re-sealable transfusion bag style pouch. Contains no real blood, just synthetic!
A 4-pack will set you back $16 but they get cheaper the more you buy. It's definitely a cool product for Halloween and certainly an attention getter. Not as attention getting as actually biting a stranger, but why risk the disease? Because you're crazy, that's why. I say do it. Bite that old lady. BITE HER NOW!

Honeybee Gardens Truly Natural Lipstick Romance -- 0.13 oz
Turns pink after a few hours
Very creamy and natural. My lips would react to chemicals in many lipsticks, but they have been happy with this brand. The only regret is that the color doesn't last, it fades away even before I eat anything. Turns pinkish on my lips. If you don't mind touching up often because having a natural formula is important to you, I'd recommend it.
April 25, 2013
Broke off after 2 days. Waste of money.
November 17, 2012
Beautiful color.
This color is beautiful on pale skin, it has a reddish pink tone to it that I simply adore. This was my go to lipstick! It is smooth, highly pigmented, and has a nice shimmer to it. Unfortunately you have to be very careful as these lipstick products tend to break off the tube which deems it useless. Romance had a good run for me but one day while I was about to put it on, broke and fell into the sink! I was very sad but am planning on buying this color again. Just be careful when twisting the tube.
September 12, 2012
Didn't hold together
Really liked the shade, the moist consistency and the fact that it was made from ingredients that are not harmful. The tradeoff is that the lipstick is quite soft and broke off the second or third time I used it.
Thus, the reason for the low rating.
November 29, 2011
great lipsticks!
when purchasing lipsticks online it's so difficult to find the perfect color. I typically mix two colors together to get the perfect match for me.

No conversation hogging. Nothing is worse than listening to someone drone on about themselves for hours. Yawn. Make sure that you ask about him and what he likes to do. After all, if you're into the guy, you should be stoked to hear his stories, right?
Speed dial your BFF. Before you head out the door, a quick pep talk from your BFF can help calm some of your nerves. No one knows how to make you relax better than your partner in crime. That in mind, do not call or text her during your date. You don't wanna send the wrong image to your guy.
Be yourself! The most important "do" of all: BE YOURSELF. A boy will never like you for who you are unless you let him see who that is.

So…I'm excited the regular season is here. I mean I wish I could be in it, of course, but I've just got to check it out from the sidelines for now. I do a lot of watching, just seeing how people carry themselves during the season.
When I get back out there, I want to be a vet. I don't want to be a rookie. That's the goal. I want to be used to it and have gone through it already, so that's what I'm doing now. I go to all the games, all the away games, and I'm just staying around the team and seeing what they do and how everything goes — how it's all working out.
This week we've got the Raiders. I'm excited to go into that atmosphere. I've never been to Oakland, so that's going to be an experience. It's the NFL, man. I still get culture shock and sort of nerves when I'm on the field watching everyone warm up. It's like, "Man…I can't wait to do it."
One of the cool things about being on the sideline is I get to see some things I might not see if I was on the field. I'll see guys getting frustrated for whatever reasons — a bad play or not getting however much playing time — I see that just throughout the team. I hurt myself last year as well, so it's not really that new to me. From that, I feel like I have a good mindset and I'm being very patient, so as soon as I get back on the field it'll be like camp all over again, just trying to have fun and play ball.
My schedule these days has been just coming into Dove Valley, going to meetings and getting my rehab in. I take off the brace every hour of the day, just trying to keep my arm flexible so it doesn't get stiff. Right now I'm just working on some movement in my elbow joint, my wrist joint, and just doing a couple sets of those pretty much all throughout the day. A little bit of soft tissue as well.
It's coming along really well, actually. The rehab is definitely easier than I thought it would be, and I'm happy with the progress.
That's really it for me right now. I'm just trying to keep all of you involved and up to date. There ain't much going on until I get back out on the field, but that'll be here faster than I know. I've just got to stay focused and keep working, and I'll keep you all in the loop the whole time.
There weren't that many questions asked last week. Come on, guys! What do you all want to know? There was one question though, about what running back has the same style as me. I'd say maybe Larry Johnson. Like him I'm kind of a bigger guy with longer strides, an athlete that makes guys miss. So I'd say my style is a little bit like him.
As always, I'll keep working hard and you all keep talking about me, so fans will know my name when I'm back out there on the field doing big things.

[JURIST] UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour [official profile; JURIST news archive] Wednesday threatened perpetrators of wanton violence against civilians in the current Middle East conflict with liability for war crimes. In a pointed statement [press release] directed equally at Israel and Hezbollah and warning both combatants and their leaders, Arbour said:
Indiscriminate shelling of cities constitutes a foreseeable and unacceptable targeting of civilians. Similarly, the bombardment of sites with alleged military significance, but resulting invariably in the killing of innocent civilians, is unjustifiable. International humanitarian law is clear on the supreme obligation to protect civilians during hostilities. This obligation is also expressed in international criminal law, which defines war crimes and crimes against humanity. International law demands accountability. The scale of the killings in the region, and their predictability, could engage the personal criminal responsibility of those involved, particularly those in a position of command and control.

► Identification of precise FcγR repertoire on innate immune effector cells ► Tissue-resident phagocytes do not contribute to IgG effector functions ► Ly6Clo monocytes have the highest phagocytic activity during the steady state ► Ly6Clo monocytes are essential for autoantibody and therapeutic IgG activity
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies confer protection against pathogenic microorganisms, serve as therapeutics in tumor therapy, and are involved in destruction of healthy tissues during autoimmune diseases. Understanding the molecular pathways and effector cell types involved in antibody-mediated effector functions is a prerequisite to modulate these activities. In this study we used two independent model systems to identify innate immune effector cells required for IgG activity in vivo. We first defined the precise repertoire of receptors for the IgG Fc fragment (FcγR) on innate immune effector cells in the blood and on tissue-resident macrophage populations. Despite expression of relevant activating FcγRs on various phagocyte populations, our data indicate that the majority of these cell types are dispensable for IgG activity in vivo. In contrast, IgG-dependent effector functions were selectively impaired in animals lacking the CX3CR1hiLy6CloCD11cint monocyte subset, which expressed the full set of FcγRs required for IgG activity.

Ford 6.7-liter Power Stroke V-8 diesel engine, to be fitted to 2011 F-Series Super Duty pickups
Enlarge PhotoFord's been around a long time; it just celebrated the 100th birthday of its Model T. Much of its green news these days focuses on its upcoming 2011 Ford Fiesta subcompact, the well-received new 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid sedan, and its Escape Hybrid sport utility.
But Ford had never designed and built its own diesel engine for the pickup trucks that still make it big money. Various Power Stroke diesel V8s, offered in Ford pickups since 1982, all came from International.
Now, Ford has unveiled its first-ever in-house diesel engine design, the all-new and very advanced 6.7-liter Power Stroke V-8. It will be fitted to 2011 Ford F-Series Super Duty pickup trucks.
Ford calls the 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel the most powerful, the most fuel-efficient, and the most refined diesel it has ever offered. The suitably "Ford Tough" code name for the project: Scorpion.
Left open: Price, power, fuel economy
So far, Ford has released neither prices nor power ratings for the new 6.7-liter turbodiesel. Fuel economy ratings are also missing. And the transmissions it will offer aren't specified, though it did say it will no longer offer a manual option with its 2011 diesels.
Still, Ford has designed the new Power Stroke to run on fuel that contains up to 20 percent biodiesel, the mixture known as B20. That means the engine is also downward compatible with lesser blends: B15, B10, and B5.
Perhaps most impressive of all, the new engine fits within the same envelope as earlier Power Stroke diesels, meaning Ford did not have to make any structural changes to its Super Duty line of large pickups and other trucks to accommodate its latest Power Stroke.
According to Ford executive vice president Mark Fields, the new engine will be restricted at launch to the F-250 and larger pickup trucks. "We had one all planned and engineered for the F-150," he told us recently, "but that's on ice right now."
Messy legal battle
Ford had offered various diesel V8s in its larger pickup trucks since 1982, under the Power Stroke name. All were built by International, now owned by Navistar. But the recent 6.0-liter Power Stroke, launched for 2003, was nothing short of a disaster.
Repair and replacement claims were through the roof from the start, and Ford and International ended up in a messy legal battle over the warranty costs of fixing literally thousands of engines.
Starting from scratch
With emissions standards set to tighten on January 1, 2010, Ford decided to design its own diesel from a clean sheet of paper. The new regulations cut nitrous oxide emission limits by 90 percent from today's limits, and by 96 percent over those of 15 years ago.
Diesel engines, in which a fuel-air mixture combusts spontaneously under much higher compression ratios than in gasoline engines, are known for their fuel efficiency. They convert about 35 percent of the fuel energy into torque, versus perhaps 25 percent for gas engines.
Efficiency, with Achilles' Heels
But they have two Achilles' Heels: nitrous oxide (NOx) emissions and particulates, the fine particles of soot that you see pouring from the tailpipe of badly-tuned vans, pickups, and garbage trucks.
To solve these problems simultaneously took some radical rethinking. Ford ended up flipping the entire design of the engine around.
Ford already knew it would use a turbocharger to scavenge wasted heat from the exhaust and use it to pump more air into each combustion cycle. That allowed it to add more fuel, increasing the power from each stroke. Almost all clean diesels are turbocharged.

The Garden Cafe was nice too, good selection, ample seating. The shows on board were o.k., "Cirque Bijou" was definitely the best from the Jean Ann Ryan Productions. The male singer was really cheesy. During the crew talent show there was far more talent than the main male singer in the production company had. Unfortunately there are always lounge chair hogs on ships who put a towel on a chair before 8:00 am and never return again. I'd watch a chair if I saw no activity after an hour I'd move the towel and get comfy. I did this several times and nobody ever approached me about this.
Our cabin was in the front of the ship, it was noisy, not form people but the sounds the ship naturally make and quite rocky, not the fault of NCL though.
We had 2 great independent day trips in Roatan we took a taxi to west bay beach which was right next to Tabayana Beach, the taxi was $40.00 for 2 of us and it was great! In Grand Cayman we did a Stingray City trip, we were approached at the pier and for $35.00 we swam w/ the stingrays and did a snorkeling trip. We were right next to the ship sponsored tour which sold for about $89.00 per person. In Jamaica we did a ship sponsored river tubing trip that was GREAT!!! we feel Jamaica can be a bit sketchy so we thought it would be best to stay with the ship sponsored trips.
All in all it was a nice trip, but still I like RCCL better. I will try NCL again but probably not for a few years.

Last Friday, [CSE Staffer Lindsey Simerly] and I were at the White House talking about you.
It was a day I'll always remember. And it also motivated me to work even harder as we build this new Southern equality movement together.
As we met with White House staffers, Lindsey and I shared your stories, explained the strategy and moral urgency driving the WE DO Campaign, and stressed that federal action is necessary to ensure full equality for LGBT people in all 50 states. Later in the day, we had the opportunity to hear President Obama speak about LGBT rights. Shaking his hand, I had a chance to get in another mention of LGBT rights in the South and the need for further federal action in the next four years.
It's good to pause and absorb a moment like this. But we're in a marathon here. Our work is far from done. We are currently planning Stage 4 of the WE DO Campaign and pulling it off will take all of us. Getting to the goal of full federal equality will require each of us stepping up in ways we never have before - perhaps even ways we never imagined we could.
Today, though, I mostly want to say thank you. Thank you for trusting us to do this work and to share your stories with our country and our President's staff. Thank you for digging deep to ensure that we met our $10,000 matching gift and then raised another $10,445 from 156 donors in a national fundraising competition last week. Most of the donations we receive are at the grassroots level, meaning we're building a strong and broad foundation for CSE's work. Every dollar we receive goes right to our work - the WE DO Campaign, free Community Law Workshops, and Support and Crisis Response Services.
We are real people, living real lives, telling a real story - about love, courage and equality. I am filled with hope and determination about what we can do together in the years to come.
Thank you for all that you do,
Rev. Jasmine Beach-Ferrara
Executive Director

Hi all.
The response to the suggestion of a pre ride dinner on Wednesday the 15th of March has been very positive with 12 people confirming they will attend so far. I figure I could arrange for the restaurant to manage up to 40 people on the night. The idea of a fixed price menu and drinks paid for individually seems to have most merit.
Quite a number of the people who have said they will attend however have left a post but have no email address for me to send information about the cost, location, etc.
If you have responded saying yes and haven't got an email address registered in your profile or haven't responded to me by email can you please email me at email@example.com so I have a way of contacting you to confirm details for the evening?
There is plenty of time for more people to register their attendance. I will book initially for 20 and if the numbers rise above that then I will try to increase the number. The earlier I have your registered interest the easier that will be.
I will stop taking registrations after February 28.
Shell and I are really looking forward to a great social night and meeting you all.
Cheers, John
