LOUISVILLE, Ky (WDRB) -- Those who rely on food stamps now have to get by on a little less.
That's because government stimulus money has run out for additions to the SNAP program.
If you depend on SNAP, you've probably already noticed you have less money this month.
WDRB talked to one family who says with more cuts, they're going to have to stretch every penny.
Crystal Shuler and her husband have six children.
For four years, they've relied on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program to put food on the table.
"I do everything I can to save money," she said.
Shuler found out Friday her budget is about to get tighter.
"At the beginning of last month, we were getting $316 and it went down to $240," said Shuler.
In 2009, stimulus funding boosted every participating household's benefits by 13.6 %.
But those benefits have run out.
"When I called my balance this morning, there was a recording from the government talking about it."
Shuler says that will change the way she shops.
"Today I went to the store and only got basics and stuff."
The cuts are expected to reduce the almost $80 billion program by about $5 billion.
Reports show the program has more than doubled since 2008 as the economy has struggled.
Shuler's family is bigger than average but even smaller households will feel the impact.
"It does affect everyone, especially the people that are on it, pretty drastically," Shuler told WDRB.
A household of two in Kentucky will lose $20 a month.
"$21 can be a whole meal or maybe a whole day of meals. If I budget right, I can make a whole day of meals out of $21," she said.
Shuler says she knows she can't stop the changes but she wishes she would have gotten a heads up about the cuts.
"A letter would have been fine. Just something a few months ahead of time just so we can budget with this many people in a household, you tend to budget. You know what you're buying and when you're buying before you're buying it sometimes. I'm grateful for the help we do receive and I'm not mad at anybody. I just wish there was more notification," Shuler concluded.
We did some checking into how many people are served by SNAP in our area.
In Kentucky - more than 879,000 people are on food stamps.
In Jefferson County alone - there are more than 40,000 on the program.
For Indiana, the number is more than 925,000.
Based on latest state population stats, that's 14 % of Hoosiers and 20 % of Kentuckians.

Nice barn Rudi. It only took a year.
Keep the cold your way.

New Home for my Cubs
Got a project that you are working on that is not a tractor? Maybe a barn to hold your tractors or just fun stuff like woodworking, glass, tools, sheds, gardens, custom implements, etc., this is the place to talk about it.

They better have good brakes Jeff, the pile of hot stuff is almost gone, the side of the road is well mulched and with luck it will be growing stuff in the spring. If we are lucky, the minifest on Friday might put Ellie's new head where it belongs..
oh.. anyone in the area, feel free to pop on over.. Friday 10am Bruce and Dale are supposed to be here....
Bob: IT is going to be a nice place to play if I can put the project for september together... keep your fingers crossed

Re: New Home for my Cubs
Nice job!!!!!
If me and the misses can come to terms on how big i want my new garage type barn i can get it started. I say big and she says small. We can never have enough room for sure. I have a woodstove for it already so i can keep my tractors as snug as a bug in a rug.
Its been in the 20's here all day high 20's to low 20's right now. They did predict its going to be a colder than normal winter with lots of snow. All i do is feed the woodstove its really toasty now, i have about 14 cords of wood so let it snow....
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
Re: New Home for my Cubs
Looks real good, Rudi. Glad to see you got it all sealed up before the snow and cold.
Now, can you come help with mine?

Re: New Home for my Cubs
With winter starting to rear it's pretty white head... it is nice to be able to work in a warm shop.. even if it is just solar heating
It was -8C this morning when I went out to the pole barn, but inside it was warm enough to work in my shirt sleeves. That lasted till about 4pm when it started to get a bit chilly. Gord was over at 1030, but Bruce and Dale didn't make it.. problem with the van.. so the Mini-Fest is put off until next week sometime I think.. .. but it will be fun.
I can actually see the ground and there is room to move around now.. a few more days and I should have most of the shelving done and then loaded up with parts from the Garden Shed. I am not worried about the integrity of the shelving. I would have prefered steel racking, but doing it the old way works too. The one shelf has my Cub-144 and my Cub-54 on that 6 foot section, plus the added weight of MOI and didn't move a midge... made me very happy.
So far there is 96 lineal feet of shelving which works out to 288 square feet of storage space. Even the old roof area has been utilized. I have my vertical all band milspec hf antenna, drainage pipe, gutters (all 10 foot sections) and my SS Rabbit Cage stored up there. Gord's Whiffle Trees are in there as well. I am likin this a lot

Good to see the shop closed in. The Clampett clan will be glad to have your comapny this winter I am sure.
New Home for my Cubs - Update 2013
It has been a long time since the Pole Barn has been sheathed in. Almost 5 years now in fact. Wow, time flies by doesn't it In the intervening seasons the pole barn has been insulated, wired. The pic shows a kinda messy area .. but like most of the construction before this, the primary materials are all recovered/recycled including the insulation. There was a strip mall being demolished and I managed to salvage pretty much all of it. Managed to get it all home before winter set in in 2010.
The sheathing inside on the walls and the ceilings is also recycled.
The overhead beam is painted and the 1/2 ton trolley is mounted. The vertical I-beam is also mounted and will be the support for my lawn mower lift servicing table.
Only a little bit of stuff left to finish - mostly up around the roof of the shop. The roof has been sealed about 4 times now .. mostly with foundation coating - liquid asphalt is a really nice sealant and it rolls on easily with a roller.
Last year when they came by to seal my driveway (they use liquid asphalt undiluted with gas which lasts real well btw), I had them reseal the pole barn roof
Anyways, time has gone by and my health has deteriorated substantially so there is stuff I can no longer do and I must hire to do that. The aluminium trimming, siding and roofing qualify under what must be contracted out. A neighbour of my brother-in-law Ray, who actually bought Em's aunt's house happens to be a finisher - finish carpentry, aluminium and siding are all part of his trade. He has finally come home after 20 years in the Miami construction market. Mario is a real asset to us and he will be doing a fair amount of work for us around the property.
More pics as the progress continues. By winter it will be all done finally

Re: New Home for my Cubs
Looks good, brother. I'm politely envious.
My 1945 Farmall H makeover
Re: New Home for my Cubs
When we did the house over and went to vinyl siding we figured we wouldn't cheap out on it so we bought Mitten Cambridge in Sandcastle which really went well with the Chocolate Brown Aluminum that we wanted for the trim. The house used to be finished in a faux Tudor style .. emulating stucco and post & beam construction. We wanted to keep a little of that flavour as it suited the silhouette of the house nicely.
Obviously we intended to carry this over to the shop at some point. That point has come .. so we are getting the shop done so I have some place warm to play this winter.
With the sun setting in the west, it changes the colour somewhat.
This was 2 days putzing for Mario.
Mario should be here on Saturday to do the front. Probably going to do the structure for the front roof as well. We will see what happens. More to come

Luxury at the end of the day
January 06, 2011
Fabulous addition to our backpacking kit. Love the comfort, protection underneath to plonk the thing on dirt, the nice top fabric for sleeping on, and the clips you use to turn the chair from lounger into chair, can be used to click two mats with their chair kits together when it comes time to sleep. Only down that I had hoped for it that leaving the mat inside the kit and deflating/rolling, you just can't get it small enough to beat how small the mattress and chair kit pack separately. Highly recommend, don't let anyone around camp try your out for too long, otherwise you don't get to enjoy your own gear much!Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Performance, Ease of use, Great value
Great product; highly recommend
March 30, 2010
The product not only protects an expensive Exped pad (which I love) but adds luxury to evenings and rest days. The chair set up is really comfortable. There is a small weight cost but not excessive especially considering that if you are a minimalist you wouldn't buy the pad anyway
Exped Chair Kit
November 04, 2011
My wife and I recently changed from Thermarest to Exped to be more comfortable on a thicker pad. The one thing I missed was being able to use my Thermarest as a chair so when we got back from our first trip I purchased two of the Exped Chair Kits. They are solidly constructed and turn your Exped in to an camping easy chair. Super comfortable and offers another layer of protection against punctures.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Ease of use, Cons: Cost
One and Done
November 17, 2009
I was very excited about this chair kit upon arrival and initially seemed to be a quality product. Extremely comfortable but only lasted one night. The straps continually slipped free with minor pressure. Next, the lower portion that flips over and snaps in place had two different failures. The strap ripped off on one side and the material that connects the seam ripped on the other side. Just to clarify, I'm 6'3" and weigh 200 lbs. Bottom line, it's comfortable but will not hold up.
Too bulky and heavy for backpacking. A basecamp chair only.
August 03, 2009
Purchased the large chairkit for Synmat 7 DLX. The stays are difficult to remove and the buckles and straps made it too heavy to use simply as a mat cover. The chair position was too tall to use comfortably inside my Approach tent. At 5'4" my head pushed against the tent ceiling. Would be more suitable for use in a larger tent. It is well made, but for too heavy for multi-day backpacking in the Rockies. I traded the chair kit for the basic mat cover.
Granit Grey, Granite Grey and Granite/ Charcoal.

Simple.TV's innovative over-the-air DVR solution is far from perfect, but it's a decent budget option if you can't afford a TiVo Premiere.
The biggest US cable company is offering an "Internet Plus" bundle with HBO combined for the first time with limited TV channels and broadband. But that doesn't mean you're any closer to getting HBO Go directly.
In this edition of Ask Maggie, CNET's Marguerite Reardon explains why the Supreme Court's Aereo decision was bad for those who've ditched traditional TV service.
An impressive bundle gives you almost everything you need to replace your cable or satellite provider. Plus, two seriously good TV-tuner bonus deals.
If Hulu is going to soon require a cable or satellite TV subscription, then what's the point?
Aereo provides live and recorded over-the-air TV in an app for $12 a month.
The consumer research firm says that people may be talking about canceling cable service to watch TV online, but few are actually doing it.
The deal also includes a lifetime PlayLater subscription, making this a mighty sweet package for cord cutters.
CNET editor David Katzmaier cut his cable cord TV for a month, then reconnected. Read the full diary to find out why.

What follows is how the Astros' 2013 Advanced A starting-biased pitchers at Lancaster graded out versus their California League peers per the Fielding and Ballpark Independent Outcomes system which I have been posting data from here at The Crawfish Boxes. A more detailed explanation as to how the scores are computed can be found in this prior FanPost that focused on the arms of the 2013 Greeneville Astros and Tri-City ValleyCats. Lancaster becomes the second of the organization's 4 full-season affiliates to put under this microscope, joining the AA Corpus Christi squad (analyzed here).
What the Scores Mean
"Performance Score" amounts to the pitcher's overall grade for the California League portion of their season relative to other league starters and is evaluated over every plate appearance that did not result in a foulout or bunt; it effectively assumes that the 2013 California-League-average effect on run expectancy occurred in every instance of each of the 12 possible plate appearance outcomes:
- walk or hit-by-pitch = +0.34 runs
- strikeout = -0.32 runs
- infield flyball = -0.30 runs
- groundball (GB) to batter's pull-field third of the diamond = -0.12 runs
- GB to center-field third = +0.02 runs
- GB to opposite-field third = -0.10 runs
- line drive (LD) to pull-field third = +0.38 runs
- LD to center-field third = +0.42 runs
- LD to opposite-field third = +0.31 runs
- outfield flyball (OFFB) to pull-field = +0.45 runs
- OFFB to center-field = +0.05 runs
- OFFB to opposite-field = -0.01 runs
The three performance subscores (Control Subscore, Strikeout Subscore, Batted Ball Subscore) quantify how the pitcher would rate versus league peers looking only at control, only at strikeouts, or only at batted balls. Age Score is tabulated independent of the performance measures and simply quantifies how young the pitcher was versus the league starting pitcher sample's average age. As for the numbers reported in the tables, a 50 score on any of the measures amounts to matching the league's average value (the pitcher topped or equaled 50% of peers), a 60 amounts to 1 standard deviation (SD) better than league-average (topped/equaled 83% of peers), a 70 amounts to 2 SD better than league-average (topped/equaled 97% of peers), a 40 amounts to 1 SD worse than league-average (topped/equaled 17% of peers), and so on with any 10 point swing in a score amounting to 1 SD.
The Scores
In the tables that follow, values that bettered the league average for that quantity by at least 1 SD are highlighted in green text ("very good") whereas those that trailed it by at least 1 SD are in red text ("very bad"). Asterisks indicate lefthanded throwers. The 9 pitchers in bold were official qualifiers for the study pool in so much as they faced at least 200 batters while averaging at least 10 batters faced per game (non-qualifiers do not enter into calculation of the averages and standard deviations that are used to assign scores to pitchers).
Lancaster fared quite well at Performance Score placing 5 pitchers inside the top 20 of the 75 league qualifiers: Cruz (6th), Rodgers (8th), West (11th), Rollins (13th), and Shirley (20th). Cruz was one of the league's top strikeout artists and also graded out well on batted balls. Rodgers was good or better at all three subscores. West was elite at control while also rating very well at the strikeout. Statistically, Rollins profiles as a slightly older Cruz with not quite so many strikeouts. Lowering Foltynewicz' Lancaster Control Subscore by 10 points results in essentially the same 3 subscores that he earned at AA later in the season. The oft-injured Shirley checks in with some rather nice numbers here. With the Carolina League season yet to be evaluated similarly, it remains unclear as to just how typical Smith's performance values in these tables are relative to those that he accrued for the Royals' Advanced A affiliate; for now, his 68 Age Score reminds us how very young he was to be spending a full year at that level of competition.
The table below shows how the same pitchers' event frequencies sort out for the California League part of their 2013. In contrast to most pitchers who excel at both racking up strikeouts and inducing popups, Cruz surrendered relatively few outfield fly balls. The Cruz, Rodgers, Rollins, and Shirley rows of the table are conspicuously red-free.
And here are the LHB splits data and the RHB splits data of the 9 qualifiers, again graded relative to the corresponding numbers of their league peers.
Though the southpaws Cruz and Rollins were each just a bit better than average against LHB, they posted the league qualifiers' 7th and 10th best Performance Scores against RHB, respectively. Rodgers and West were each similarly strong against LHB as they were against RHB, and that should bode well for the righthanders as they graduate to AA for 2014. While on the one hand Shirley's strong control and strikeout ratings versus LHB suggest that he would project nicely as a lefty relief specialist, his overall good numbers against RHB would support allowing him continue to start and/or face RHB for the near term. Perez' results are rather unique in that he grades out so strongly versus opposite-handed bats and so poorly against same-handed ones. The righty Devenski had the 2nd worst Performance Score against RHB of the 75 qualifiers, and that weakness figures to have played a key role in his late-season demotion to Quad Cities.
What Just Happened, Statistically
Every batted ball against these pitchers was effectively transplanted to a league-neutralized playing environment. As many readers are aware, the Lancaster venue is one of the most challenging ones for pitchers in all of the minors given its altitude and typically strong winds (a run environment eclipsed only in that league by the High Desert venue where the team plays many a road game). So this variety of statistical analysis tends to give us a better understanding of a Lancaster pitcher's true performance relative to league standards than would attention to more commonly referenced statistics.
On Tap
Quad Cities will likely be next in the pecking order. After the remaining two team-centric Fanposts are published, a wrap-up Fanpost will be put up to show how each starting pitcher did over their entire season spent over however many levels where they made an appearance. Given these Lancaster numbers and how well Luis Cruz finished up the year at Corpus Christi, it seems probable that Cruz will assume the number two spot on the organizational Performance Score leaderboard for 2013 behind Michael Feliz.

Fall Fishing
Believe it or not, the fall is a great time to get out and catch some fish. Mark Scott, a biologist with the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources, explains how fishing picks up when the leaves start to drop.
"Fishing in the fall is good for a couple of reasons," Scott said. "First, it's cool and is a nice comfortable day to fish. Water levels are usually low. As the water cools off, fish tend to start biting more. You have a better chance of catching a bigger fish in the fall and in a couple weeks, the leaves will be turning."
Great fishing when the mountains of West Virginia are as beautiful as they will ever be - that is a fantastic combination. We're just starting October, and Scott said you have about another month of prime fall fishing.
"September until the end of October is what I consider fall. You start getting into November, and it's getting cool, you catch bigger fish, but not as many." Scott said.
So, if you want to really haul in a bunch of small mouth, hit the rivers now, but make sure you adjust your bait.
"In the fall, the water's really clear, especially when it's low, so you need to use lighter bait, smaller stuff, anything to give you an advantage. Today, they're hitting on bugs on top and not what we're throwing. There are bugs all over the place." Scott said.
In other words, it's fishing. They will bite what they want, just have plenty of different things to throw out there and you are bound to find something they will. And don't forget your life jacket if you are getting on a boat.

Join Fox 2's Deena Centofanti in a live chat room starting at 9am. Deena is joined by Dr. Rhonna Shatz, DO Behavioral Neurologist at Henry Ford Hospital.
Ask your questions in the chat room module above.
Dr. Rhonna Shatz is Clayton Alandt Chair of Behavioral Neurology at Henry Ford Hospital. Alzheimer's disease has been a major focus of her career and she has been involved with numerous committees and studies of the disease.
She has also served as Chair of the Board of Directors for the Alzheimer's Association, Greater Michigan Chapter. Dr. Shatz's current research projects involve dementia risk factor modification processes for primary care physicians, the role of hearing loss and treatment in dementia, normal pressure hydrocephalus diagnosis and treatment, clinical drug trials for mild cognitive impairment, and genetic and environmental risk factors of Alzheimer's disease in African-Americans.
Why do people have memory lapses?
What are the common reasons for memory lapses; are there underlying medical and/or psychological conditions to account for memory lapses?
Is memory loss is an inevitable part of the aging process?
How does one know normal forgetfulness vs. dementia?
Are there ways – exercises for instance, to overcome memory loss?
What are some of the signs/symptoms for Alzheimer's disease? How do you know when to seek treatment for a loved one?
Cancer and heart disease are bigger killers, but Alzheimer's is the most expensive malady in the U.S., costing families and society $157 billion to $215 billion a year, according to a new study. The biggest cost of Alzheimer's and other types of dementia isn't drugs or other medical treatments, but the care that's needed just to get mentally impaired people through daily life.
It's estimated that 4.1 million Americans have dementia.
Statistics reveal that mild cognitive impairment affects about 20 percent of the population over the age of 70 while some 500,000 people in their 30s, 40s and 50s have Alzheimer's disease or related dementia.

When eager Texas Tech fans show up for Saturday's game against Stephen F. Austin, they will be welcomed by a slew of new additions to the stadium.
But perhaps the element that has most excited the public is the North Endzone Project.
It includes a state of the art video board that tops the charts as the 8th largest of any college football stadium, the colonnade wall that faces the Marsha Sharp Freeway and a new booming sound system.
Renovations started at the end of last season and now as game day approaches, the digs are done.
Inside the bowl, fans will also see ribbon video boards, a first in Jones AT&T history.
Assistant Athletic Director Blayne Beal said although the facelift to Jones AT&T wasn't cheap, it is well worth it for Red Raider Athletics.
The stadium renovations cost $135 million, and the bells and whistles promise to make Texas Tech game day a tremendous and unique experience.
"It's the best in the country, there's no doubt. I think since 2003 the renovations that we've put into this stadium have been remarkable. We've put in over $135 million dollars into the stadium and it's tremendous," Beal said.
And for fans who have struggled with finding good cell reception inside the stadium, those days are history.
A new system installed by AT&T will enhance the game day experience by providing faster, more reliable connections for social media.
"The distributed antenna system is a network of antennas that's engineered together to provide service to the fans that are in a large capacity venue," said T.J. Forner, AT&T Engineering Manager.
317 antennas have been installed by AT&T to strengthen cell service inside Jones AT&T.
Not only will it provide a stronger connection, it will also speed up data services for internet use.
The video board will actually be used to run tweets from fans during the game at halftime and during time outs.
Fans can tweet @techathletics and look for their name on the board.
Beal says, "We go to stadiums across the country and I would put Jones AT&T Stadium up against any of them."

Sounds like it is time for a roundup; headphone style
Subject: General Tech | February 14, 2014 - 03:28 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: audio, roundup, headphones
The Inquirer has put together a list of the 14 best headphones released so far this year, including both on ear and over the ear styles. You won't find a single Beats model in this roundup but you will hear about a wide range of best in class headphones from a wide variety of uses from the cheapest pair that still sounds good to the best ones for travelling. Just don't buy the ones with frogs on them.
"Long gone are the days when people felt too embarrassed to wear a hefty pair of cans on their heads in the fear that they'd be accused to trying to look like an Ibiza DJ wannabe. The hype about on-ear headphones has helped convince the masses that, "Actually, these clumsy looking music accessories are pretty cool," or, "Why shouldn't I wear them with pride on the Tube after forking out hundreds for them?""

The MP4Nation Brainwavz HM9 are portable over the ear headphones with a mini-jack connection, perfect for laptops and mobiles without a proprietary jack. Those using it on a cellphone will appreciate the microphone built in to the wires as well as the extra length that is provided. TechPowerUp liked the sound and design of the headphones but caution you to pay attention to the price, at the $120 preorder price they are a good bargain; not so much at the recommended $150 price point.
"MP4Nation is well known for their budget friendly headphone lineup. These solid over-ear headphones also come with a huge bundle and are built for a life on the go. Their pre-order price of $119 makes them a good price/performance option, too."

ThermalTake at CES 2012
Subject: Cases and Cooling | January 9, 2012 - 04:06 PM | Josh Walrath
Tagged: thermaltake, Power Supplies, Keyboards, headphones, CES 2012, CES, cases
Last year at CES, ThermalTake had a rather sparse room of equipment to show off. This year, the room was much fuller in terms of new and interesting products. ThermalTake is a company that is not afraid to jump into new categories, and in this case we are seeing two areas that are a bit foreign to most PC enthusiasts.
ThermalTake was one of the first companies that did not have a background in power supplies to actually move into that industry. The first series of power supplies were actually quite impressive for the time, and they helped to set a new standard that would eventually be followed by the likes of Coolermaster and Corsair. This year they are introducing some improvements in their design and component choices that should allow them to approach the quality and features of industry leaders like Silverstone and Corsair. ThermalTake has the Platinum series which promises up to 93% efficiency and the platinum rating. They are also offering slightly lower gold rated supplies that are now available in white. ThermalTake is a rather fluid company when it comes to products though, and it will be interesting to see what actually gets delivered to market vs. what all was shown. We will see the Platinum series and the white products, but some details may change as well as differences in cable choices. They did show off the massive 1475 watt unit which is also able to power your arc welder...

True 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset
Cooler Master is a household name in the PC case world, and an established player in the cooling industry. Not content with those two areas, Cooler Master has expanded into power supplies, keyboards, mousepads, and a plethora of other accessories where they apparently make a tidy bundle. Coolermaster is now moving into a new area; gaming audio. Under the "CM Storm" brand, Coolermaster is releasing its own set of cans.
We were sent a production quality sample, but it did not come in the retail box that is availble now.
Cooler Master is hoping to deliver a profound audio experience to users with their CM Storm Sirus (not Sirius mind) True 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headphones. The design and packaging certainly look impressive, but what counts in the end is the sound emanating from these products.
Psyko's new gaming headset isn't just a Carbon copy of their last model
Subject: General Tech | April 28, 2011 - 02:01 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: headphones, headset, psyko, gaming, audio
The new Psyko Carbon headset sports 7 speakers, including 40mm subs, which is supposed to surround your head with sound. With that insane amount of power it is no surprise to see that this headset comes with its own amplifier. The real question is whether the PsykoWave speaker virtualization technology which is intended emulate positional sound like you would have with properly set up speakers. The Tech Report knows how well it works, so you can visit them to find out for yourself.
"Psyko Audio Labs has updated its surround-sound gaming headset with a new Carbon model that offers a number of upgrades and a lower asking price. We have a listen to see if the Carbon is a good alternative to traditional virtualization methods."

President Obama held his first prime-time news conference Tuesday night. When questioned on
Meanwhile, the Associated Press recently cited a classified report drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff recommending a shift in strategy from democracy-building in
And the campaign has clearly begun. Days after his inauguration, Obama's first (known) military actions were two missile strikes inside
Cherif Bassiouni has spent years going back and forth to
Bassiouni's scathing 2005 U.N. report accused the U.S. military and private military contractors of "forced entry into homes, arrest and detention of nationals and foreigners without legal authority or judicial review, sometimes for extended periods of time, forced nudity, hooding and sensory deprivation, sleep and food deprivation, forced squatting and standing for long periods of time in stress positions, sexual abuse, beatings, torture, and use of force resulting in death."
I also put the question of the military surge to former President Jimmy Carter. He responded: "I would disagree with Obama as far as a surge that would lead to a more intense bombing of Afghan villages and centers and a heavy dependence on military. I would like to see us reach out more, to be accommodating, and negotiate with all of the factions in
Carter should know. He helped create what his national-security adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, called "the Afghan trap," supporting Islamic mujahedeen in the late-1970s against the Soviets in
More than 14,000 Soviet troops were killed, and the Afghan toll exceeded 1 million. Osama bin Laden got his start with the help of the CIA-funded Afghan operation.
Bassiouni suggests that a military solution is doomed to failure, noting that the Taliban "realized they could not defeat the American forces, so they went underground. They put their Kalashnikovs under the mattresses, and they waited. A year ago, they resurfaced again. They can do the same thing. They can go back in the mountains, push the Kalashnikovs under the mattress, wait out five years. They have been doing that since the 1800s with any foreign and every foreign invader."
As Carter told me, "To offer a hand of friendship or accommodation, not only to the warlords but even to those radicals in the Taliban who are willing to negotiate, would be the best approach, than to rely exclusively on major military force."

GARNER — Daylight Donuts elected to rescind its licensing agreement with J's Delicious Daylight Donuts in Garner days after it opened when it learned of the business owner's 2010 conviction for molesting a 14-year-old boy.
Randy Robertson said the new shop had done great business in its first week after a July 1 soft opening. He said many customers had remarked that they had read about his past and decided to come anyway.
But a letter dated July 3 from Daylight Donuts vice president of licensing Jason Bond questioned his ability to operate the business legally and said the company was "concerned about the threat (the publicity) poses to our reputation and the business success of our current licensees system wide." It indicated that it had not "fully executed" the agreement and would not do so, citing logistical obstacles created by Robertson's probation and negative publicity.
The company's licensing arrangements allow store owners to operate independently and use the brand on the condition that owners buy proprietary ingredients and use recipes from Daylight. There is no requirement to share revenue or even report sales figures.
The letter requests he return any proprietary ingredients as well as branded materials such as packaging. It also requests Robertson cease using the name "Daylight Donuts" in any fashion.
Robertson said he has been exploring legal options and has not received a formal cease-and-desist, but said he's not likely to want to work with people who turned on him so quickly. He has been working on assembling other recipes to continue business without Daylight.
The Wake County district attorney's office and Garner police determined that Robertson's plans did not violate terms of his probation. Those terms bar him from interacting with children 16 years old and younger; he was to cook the donuts and keep the books while staying away from customer interaction. He is also subject to lifetime ankle monitoring and cannot leave Wake County until the end of probation in December 2015.
"I feel said terms (of probation) inhibit, restrict and generally hinder your ability to operate a Daylight Donut shop as contemplated in the agreement," Bond said in the letter.
Later he said: "I realize you have an investment in the 'Daylight' branded inventory you currently possess, and that you must make a living" and offered to "assist you within reason by replacing your current inventory" with non-proprietary ingredients and non-branded packaging materials. He said undamaged products would be bought back.
The letter said Robertson should have disclosed his situation, but the company does not run background checks on owners and there was no indication that a criminal history was requested. Bond did not respond to requests for comment.
Robertson was convicted of inappropriately touching a 14-year-old boy in 2010 at Garner United Methodist Church. He spent 15 weekends in jail. His other conviction occurred in 1980, when he was 18.
He married his wife Stacey in 2011 and the two have a child that turns three next month. He said he developed a passion for baking through culinary classes at Wake Tech, where he taught from 2001 to 2008. He said he accepts responsibility for his crime and recognizes the damages he's caused, but hopes to be able to make a living for his family. The couple has poured $200,000 – savings and loans from family and friends – into the business start up.
Mixed response
After the article noting his past convictions was published, reaction has included people upset that he was allowed to open a shop at all as well as others supportive of his efforts.
The letter from Daylight cites concern from other local Daylight owners along with the negative publicity. At the Triangle's two other Daylight shops the response was mixed as well.
Denise Less owns one in Wake Forest and firmly supported Robertson. She said based on the daily baking schedule it would be perfectly plausible for him to avoid customer interaction that would violate probation, contrary to one justification Daylight's letter used to cancel the arrangement. She said choosing this particular business made sense for him.
As for bad publicity, she said the story has had no affect on her business, and if anything customers have expressed support for Robertson.
"The whole thing is horrible," Less said. "He went through the channels he was supposed to go to, he was approved by the system. They said it was OK."
She said she asked Daylight to wait before acting when the company called her multiple times about the matter. She said she didn't condone his crime, but expressed sympathy for Robertson given the difficulty of being hired as a felon.
"Isn't that a God thing? To provide for his family?" Lull said.
Brian Van Norman, who owns a Daylight Donuts shop in North Raleigh, expressed more concern, though he said he didn't receive any complaints or see a decline in business in the days after the story broke.
"(The publicity) is an eyesore for Daylight, and hopefully it gets amended. From my perspective I'm hoping it doesn't affect my bottom line in the long run," Van Norman said. "They say no publicity is bad publicity, but I don't think that's particularly true."
Psychologists who deal with sexual misconduct have said studies indicate most violators don't fit the predator mold feared by many. And, they note that studies indicate public sex registries and a witch-hunt mentality do more harm than good and spread misleading information.
Robertson said the store generated more than $500 in sales on its first day despite not having a grand opening and the publicity surrounding his conviction, and steadily averaged about as much throughout the week. Many have shown support, he said.
"I've had letters, I've had phone calls, I've had cards. A good majority of people who came into the store said 'I read what was in the paper, it's terrible and I don't believe it (was published),'" Robertson said.

Chris Boroughs sacked by phonecall after 11 years as Herefordshire captain
5:00pm Thursday 25th October 2012 in Cricket
CHRIS Boroughs admitted his removal as Herefordshire County Cricket Club's skipper felt like 'a kick in the teeth'.
Boroughs had led the county's side for 11 years until a phonecall earlier this month told him he was being replaced.
"I was rung up and told that I was no longer wanted as captain but they wanted me to remain as a player," said Boroughs. "But in the light of their decision, I have told the county that I will no longer be available to play for Herefordshire.
"I have given 11 years as captain in some of the most difficult times when we have struggled to get a side together.
"There's been times when we've had a game on a Sunday but, on the Friday, we have still had only eight or nine confirmed players.
"To get a phonecall to say 'cheerio' was a shock. It's been a big kick in the teeth."
Herefordshire spokesman Peter Sykes last week revealed the change in captaincy was due to the club 'looking to the future'.
Boroughs' Brockhampton team-mate David Exall has been installed to lead Herefordshire next season.
"After 11 years of being captain and 14 altogether, the club have not consulted me before making their decision," said 37-year-old all-rounder Boroughs. "Five or six years ago when we were not competing, it was a difficult time for me.
"We were badly affected by the wet weather this summer but, in 2011, we finished fourth and lost off the last ball in the quarter-finals of the one-day competition."
Stourbridge-based Boroughs said he had only ever thought of playing Minor Counties cricket for Herefordshire.
He added: "I haven't looked too far ahead or if I want to play for another county. It's too early for that."
However, Boroughs confirmed he would be playing next summer for Brockhampton in the Birmingham and District League Premier Division.
"I will be continuing at Brockhampton and this is a completely separate issue to this," he said.
"I will be doing my best for Brockhampton next year."
