John Yoo on Stripping Citizenship for Americans Who Work for U.S. Enemies
Tuesday, February 16, 2010 at 2:19 pm
This is a bit flashbacky, but in June 2002, John Yoo, then the deputy chief of the Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel, considered the question of what acts a U.S. citizen might commit that would indicate an implicit renunciation of his or her citizenship. Apropos of my piece today about radical American cleric Anwar al-Awlaki — and pointed out to me by NYU's Karen Greenberg, a source for that story — Yoo didn't mention al-Qaeda or terrorism, but the category of behavior described here would appear to encapsulate membership in al-Qaeda:
An individual who voluntarily "enter[s], or serv[es] in, the armed forces of a foreign state" (13) may be expatriated, "if (A) such armed forces are engaged in hostilities against the United States, or (B) such persons serve as a commissioned or non-commissioned officer." 8 U.S.C. § 1481(a)(3). Nonetheless, no person may be expatriated unless he acts "with the intention of relinquishing United States nationality." 8 U.S.C. § 1481(a). That said, although the performance of an expatriating act cannot be used as "the equivalent of or as conclusive evidence of the indispensable voluntary assent of the citizen," such conduct "may be highly persuasive evidence in the particular case of a purpose to abandon citizenship." Terrazas, 444 U.S. at 261 (quotations omitted).
Voluntary service in a foreign armed force that is engaged in hostilities against the United States has frequently been viewed as a particularly strong manifestation of an intention to abandon citizenship. As Attorney General Clark once opined, "it is highly persuasive evidence, to say the least, of an intent to abandon United States citizenship if one enlists voluntarily in the armed forces of a foreign government engaged in hostilities against the United States." 42 Op. Att'y Gen. at 401. See also 22 C.F.R. § 50.40(a) (although "intent to retain U.S. citizenship will be presumed" when an individual "naturalize[s] in a foreign country" or "take[s] a routine oath of allegiance," no such presumption is provided "[i]n other loss of nationality cases").
So a couple of things here. First, al-Qaeda isn't the agent of any state, so it's unclear whether al-Qaeda would fall into this framework. Second, even if it does, al-Awlaki is not necessarily a member of al-Qaeda. Third, at the time Yoo wrote this memo, the Bush administration had three American citizens in its custody that it contended were agents of either al-Qaeda or the Taliban: Yaser Hamdi, Jose Padilla and John Walker Lindh. (Hamdi later claimed to renounce his citizenship.) And it did not claim any of them implicitly renounced their citizenship. While I think Yoo's 2002 memo is technically still operative, it hasn't been a guide to either the Bush or Obama administration's behavior. I'm referencing it just to show that the citizenship-and-counterterrorism question has been around for years now.

"Americans who work for US enemies" reflexively produced a mental image of the infamous photo of Rumsfeld and Saddam Hussein shaking hands and grinning from ear to ear.
Then there was Ollie North, who sold US weapons to Iran while Ronnie Reagan pronounced them a terrorist state.
Which was subsequent to the Reagan camp meeting with said terrorists to make it worth their while to hold the American hostages until after the 1980 presidential election
How about Cheney's Chief of Staff outing a CIA agent
Where does Yoo stand on those 'transactions'?

Who is Behind Sen. Joe Lieberman's Proposed Fascist Legislation?
Sen. Joe Lieberman has already endorsed McCain's March 4th bill S.3081 that would strip Americans of Habeas corpus: Under the McCain bill, U.S. Government would need only designate an American Citizen was an "Unprivileged Enemy Belligerent" suspected of; having engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners; or purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the United States or U.S. civilians to cause their indefinite detention in military custody, without right to an attorney or trial.
Joe Lieberman's proposed bill would make it easy to strip Americans of their Citizenship and hold them as "Unprivileged Enemy Belligerents" as U.S. Government would only have to show a U.S. Citizen or group had slight-interaction with a foreign group that touched a terrorist organization, for example Irish Americans living on the east coast of the United States contacting their alleged IRA relatives in Northern Ireland. Since many political groups intersect, even unknowingly with alleged terrorists, Lieberman's bill would make it possible for a U.S. Government administration to do large sweeps of U.S. Citizens denying Americans Habeas corpus, to try them in military tribunals. One might want to ask who put Lieberman up to introducing this fascist bill that favors Israel. It should be noted Joe Lieberman's June 4th endorsement of McCain's bill S.3081, The "Enemy Belligerent Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010" strips Americans of Habeas corpus; there appears to be a pattern here between McCain and Lieberman legislation. McCain's bill S.3081 would eliminate several Constitutional protections allowing Government to arbitrarily pick up Americans on mere suspicion—with no probable cause. Your political opinions and statements made against U.S. Government could be used by Authorities to deem you a "hostile" "Enemy Belligerent" to cause your arrest and indefinite detention. S.3081 is so broadly written innocent anti-war protesters and Tea Party Groups might be arrested and detained just for attending demonstrations; Government could charge that attending demonstrations "materially supported hostilities."
McCain's legislation S.3081 could like Lieberman's proposed bill be used by a corrupt U.S. government administration to crush anyone that dared question government. Under McCain's S.3081, an "individual" need only be Suspected by Government of "suspicious activity" or "supporting hostilities" to be dragged off and held indefinitely in Military Custody. Government would have the power to detain and interrogate any individual including Americans without probable cause. Government need only allege an individual kept in detention, is an Unprivileged Enemy Belligerent suspected of; having engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners; or has purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the United States; its coalition partners; or against U.S. civilians. How could one prove to Government they did not purposely do something? "Materially Supporting Hostilities" against the United States could include any person or group that spoke out or demonstrated disapproval against an agency of U.S. Government. It is foreseeable many Americans might go underground to Resist Government Tyranny. Definition for Unprivileged Enemy Belligerent: (Anyone Subject to a Military Commission)
At least under the Patriot Act, law enforcement generally needed probable cause to detain a person indefinitely. Passage of S.3081 will permit government to use "mere suspicion" to curtail an individual's Constitutional Protections against unlawful arrest, detention and interrogation without benefit of legal counsel and trial. According to S.3081 Government is not required to provide detained individuals U.S. Miranda Warnings or even an attorney. It is problematic under McCain's S.3081 that detained individuals in the U.S. not involved in terrorism or hostile activities, not given Miranda Warnings or allowed legal counsel will be prosecuted for ordinary crimes because of their alleged admissions while in military custody.
S.3081 if passed will frighten Americans from speaking out. S.3081 is so broadly written, it appears any "individual" who writes on the Internet or verbally express an opinion against or an entity of U.S. Government or its coalition partners might be detained on the basis he or she is an "unprivileged enemy belligerent", "supporting hostilities against U.S. Government." The "supporting hostilities" provisions in S.3081 are so broad Government could use "suspicion" to detain U.S. corporate executives on the premise their corporations "supported hostilities" by providing goods or services to a nation engaged in hostilities against the United States.

Last week a Superior Court Judge ruled on gay marriage in New Jersey which would allow same sex couples to wed effective October 21, 2013. While many New Jersey Democrats like Barbara Buono and Cory Booker are in favor of gay marriage, Governor Chris Christie is not so much.
Christie commented saying that when the legislature passed gay marriage in the past he vetoed it and he will leave it up for the people to decide on the ballot. Last week's decision is likely to be appealed to the Supreme Court where they will make a constitutional determination.
Len Deo with the New Jersey Family Policy Council helped to put this ruling into context. "It's just unbelievable that a single judge would make such a determination and implement same sex marriage on the people of New Jersey. We're very concerned very upset by the decision and we hope the Governor will go ahead and appeal this decision to the higher courts." He said.
Deo feels like this judge really jumped the gun. "He totally took it away from the people. I think a lot of people are getting sick and tired of the judges, just ya know, ruling for them. We got to let the republic and democracy take its course." He said.

The National Hockey League has suspended Washington Capitals forward Alexander Ovechkin for two games for his hit on Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Brian Campbell on Sunday afternoon.
While the Capitals were not happy with the suspension, vice president and general manager George McPhee chose not to expand on his feelings.
"We have no problem with the way Alex tried to finish his check. Unfortunately, an injury resulted. We are disappointed with the suspension but do not want to comment further," McPhee said in a statement Monday.
While McPhee would not comment, Capitals head coach Bruce Boudreau was furious with the decision.
"If this was Sidney Crosby doing this, everybody outside of Pittsburgh would have cried foul: 'Suspend him for the year,"' Boudreau told the Capitals team website, Caps365 on Monday. "I don't think it does the game any good to have Alex suspended."
The two-time MVP and the league's leading scorer was given a five-minute major boarding penalty and a game misconduct in the first period for knocking Campbell into the boards. Campbell remained on the ice for several minutes before being helped to the dressing room by trainers.
ESPN.com is reporting that Campbell may miss the remainder of the season due to a broken clavicle and ribs suffered from the hit. The Blackhawks have recalled Nick Boynton of the AHL's Rockford IceHogs to replace Campbell on the blueline.
"I respect everybody," Ovechkin said after Sunday's game. "We respect everybody here in the locker room and outside, but over there [on the ice], we play for our team, and we make some hard hits, and sometimes, you get hurt. That's a hockey game."
Players from across the league weighed in on the hit and discussed the Russian star's style of play.
"I think everyone's known since the first time he came into this league that he plays a reckless style game," said Montreal Canadiens defenceman Josh Gorges. "He's going a hundred miles an hour, he's hitting everything that moves, he's going to the net, he's burying guys. Obviously when you have the stardom he does, anytime anything happens with Ovechkin's name beside it, it's going to get talked about even more. He plays that way, he plays with that reckless abandonment, and sometimes it's right on the line. You look at the hit last night - did it cross that line? I think maybe it did."
Habs defenceman Ryan O'Byrne said he was just happy it's not his job to decide if it's a suspension or not.
"Sometimes in the heat of the moment, those things happen," O'Byrne said. "From my standpoint, it looked like a little bit from behind, but he was kind of skating that way also."
Ottawa Senators forward Nick Foligno added ''He works hard, hits hard and plays the game on the edge. And sometimes when you do that, you cross [the line]. We've seen that a few times.''
Ovechkin's teammate Mike Knuble did not want to comment specifically on the hit, but said he would like to see his hard-hitting teammate tone down some of his aggressiveness.
''He has the reputation that he plays hard, but things seem to be happening around him,'' Knuble told The Washington Post. ''You would like to see him being more careful.''
Sunday's major penalty was Ovechkin's third game misconduct of the season. He was handed a game misconduct on Nov. 26 for a hit against Buffalo's Patrick Kaleta, and three days later received another for hitting Carolina's Tim Gleason below the knees. The 24-year-old was suspended for two games for the Kaleta hit and is now considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. He'll forfeit more than US$232,000 in salary for the supsension.
Ovechkin is eligible to return Saturday, when the Capitals visit the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Another Monday, another Sunderland defeat (our 1,782nd if you're keeping count) and another chance for Black Cats fans all over the world to contemplate our beloved red and white clad heroes' future in the top flight of English football.
As a County Durham red and white growing up in the 90's and coming of age in the 00's, I missed our greatest moment at Wembley on that day in May of 1973. On the plus side, I have been able to witness our relocation from the late, great Roker Park to our current residence at the magnificent Stadium of Light. I have also been privileged enough to witness arguably, our greatest post-war team finish in 7th place on consecutive occasions under the once a Scouser, Peter Reid. I've also seen some rather dismal moments over the last 20 years. Finishing with a then record low points total in the Premier League is top of the list.
Of course, Sunderland being Sunderland, we had to do it twice. Away from Roker Park and then post 1997, the Stadium of Light, a certain Martin O'Neill was weaving his magic at Leicester City, Glasgow Celtic and Aston Villa providing silverware t o each of these provincial clubs. When Peter Reid's reign as manager came to an unfortunate end, when Howard Wilkinson failed to pick up the pieces, when Mick McCarthy led the club to a second record lowest point total and when Roy Keane eventually moved on to pastures new after guiding us to a period of stability, who was the first name on Sunderland's supporter lips? Martin O'Neill.
Well, when Steve Bruce's leadership of the club came to an unamicable end the red and white faithful finally got their man. O'Neill guided Sunderland from the foot of the table to the dizzy heights of the top ten teams of the Premier League with a flurry of impressive quick temp performances from the likes of James McClean and Stephane Sessegnon.
At the same time, he instilled a belief into the hearts and minds of Sunderland supporters that they could once again head "darn sarf" to Wembley and see their heroes lift the FA Cup once again. The Ulsterman guided the Wearsiders to the Quarter Finals where we due to play Everton at Goodison Park. Ah well, it was fun while it lasted thought the following hoardes to Merseyside but no, O'Neill made sure the Lads gave everything and we came away with a spirited draw. Back to the SoL where everybody thought it really was going to be our year. Alas, in true fashion, we cocked it up. With no fear of a relegation scrap and the excitement of a Cup run over, the season fizzled out in truly unspectacular fashion.
During the close season, supporters seemed to expect a handful of signings straight away but with the exception of veteran free agents Carlos Cuellar and Louis Saha, all seemed very quiet on the incomings at the SoL. The natives were becoming restless when Marty really started the party with the additions of Adam Johnson and Steven Fletcher thus ending two dragged out, will they? won't they sagas. In the midst of the excitement of the two high profile signings, MON snuck in highly rated Spurs youngster Danny Rose on a season long loan.
So there we were, at the end of August, having played only 1 game (a hard fought draw away at Arsenal) due the sudden start of the freakish weather season on Wearside causing the postmonement of the Reading game. After more well earned draws v Swansea, Liverpool and West Ham and a first victory of the season v Wigan, there was a real sense of expectation around the area that now was the time that we would kick on and start our season properly. Again, no. A knock on England duty for winger Adam Johnson, Stephane Sessegnon's lack of match fitness after missing pre-season and James McClean's inability to find the form that made him an instant success last season, robbed Sunderland of any momentum.
That's when things went downhill. Starting the month away at City, we were drubbed 0-3 by a far superior side, stuttered to a last gasp draw in the Wear-Tyne derby and picked up an uninspiring point at Stoke. Onto November and better things? Nope, sorry. Tepid defeats at home to Villa and West Brom and away at Everton where we were slightly improved didn't do anything for the growing tensions in the North East despite an encouraging victory at Fulham and a point against an upsurgent QPR. Jack Colback's poor run of form and off the field antics of James McClean added to his poor start has angered certain sections of the crowd.
Martin O'Neill's refusal to change an unsuccessful side and system as well as injuries to influential skipper Lee Cattermole and commanding defender John O'Shea has seen us drop to 17th place. Our first game of December, yesterday, was away to Norwich where a shambolic 30 minutes performance saw us 0-2 down and seemingly out of the game. Craig Gardner, coming out of his proverbial shell in recent weeks gave the Lads hope. A much improved second half display saw Connor Wickham finally thrust into the side in place of the injured Steven Fletcher. If truth be told, those of us at Carrow Road felt we played some of our best football in the second 45 and deserved at least a point.
All in all, an unflattering start for the Wearsiders but it's not without it's positives. Simon Mignolet's good run of form has seen him cement the first choice GK spot, Danny Rose has been outstanding at LB and in recent weeks we've seen good patches of form from Craig Gardner, Stephane Sessegnon and despite not being on top of his game, Adam Johnson. The makings of a good team are in place at the SoL and all we need to kick on is the full support of the crowd, the realisation that playing with the shackles off brings confidence and better performances and some good fortune. Keep The Faith! Nath.

This is the dumbest thing in college football not to come out of Lane Kiffin's mouth in a long time. The problem with excessive celebration penalties in college football isn't that they're too lenient -- it's that they're too strict. Essentially, a player who takes the burst of emotion after a big play too far is penalized the same as a player who attempts to hurt his opponent by grabbing his opponent's face mask and jerking it to the ground or by making a horse-collar tackle. That's absurd and just a touch short of morally bankrupt. Now, the same people who brought us that brilliant idea want to make the excessive celebration foul even more stringent by enforcing in some cases as a live-ball foul? Really?!? Excessive celebration should be a five- or maybe ten-yard flag. It should always be a dead-ball penalty. And the people involved in making the rules should really consider the virtues of allowing kids to play football instead of trying to turn the game into a tea party with shoulder pads.

MODESTO — Modesto High is about to wander into the most severe be-careful-what-you-wish-for situation offered by Sac-Joaquin Section soccer.
When the Modesto Metro Conference champion Panthers disposed of Woodcreek 3-1 in Tuesday's Division 1 first-round game, Modesto advanced to a second-round match on Thursday at top-seeded Jesuit the closest thing to a soccer dynasty this region has to offer.
So Modesto coach Matt Mendes chose his words carefully, making sure to be as respectful as possible to a program that doesn't need inspirational quotes tacked on it's bulletin board.
Instead of "We want Jesuit," or the more direct "Bring on Jesuit," Mendes tendered "It would be nice to match yourself up against a team that has established itself as the best. Our guys are excited about it, and it's nice to extend the season by a couple of days if not more."
The Panthers (14-6-5) earned the extra action with a dominant performance against the Timberwolves from Roseville (13-5-5,) spotting Woodcreek a goal in the opening minute before riding the 1-2 punch of Artemio Contreras and Julio Corona to victory.
Corona, who leads Modesto with 15 goals, got the equalizer in the 19th minute after a steal and a breakaway from midfield. He got the assist on the go-ahead goal nine minutes later when his shot deflected off the left post to Contreras, who tapped it home from point-blank range.
The two inadvertently worked together on the clinching goal in the 63rd minute. Corona, on another breakaway, was tackled from behind just outside the box. Contreras took the free kick, bending it around the left of Woodcreek's four-man wall into the upper right side of the net.
It was no accident that Corona and Contreras led the Panthers' offensive punch, since a coaching adjustment forced them to work together.
"That's only the second time we've paired those two and played Contreras high behind Corona," Mendes said. "Artemio holds the ball really well and it was a good partnership today."
Contreras, a junior, was happy to make the move, especially since it resulted in a rare postseason offensive show for Modesto. This is the fifth straight season the Panthers have reached the Division 1 playoffs, and they had scored a total of three goals in their previous four appearances, posting a 1-4 record.
"I usually play center-mid, and today coach pushed me up a little to help out Corona and it worked great," said Contreras, who added that playing Woodcreek earlier this season in a tournament final (losing 1-0) helped Modesto this time out.
"They play really physical and they're a good team, so we expected them to come out and play the same way today," he said. "We just played harder."
And faster. While Woodcreek was much larger physically, the Panthers had a decided advantage in speed, even on the bumpy surface of Modesto's home pitch loaned to them for the day by the football team, itself in the hunt for an MMC crown.
"We practiced on this field a couple times, so we got the hang of it," Contreras said. "It's not the best field, but it'll do."
And now comes the ultimate test for the Panthers. Jesuit not only is ranked No. 1 in the nation among boys' teams playing in the fall season (Central Valley of Ceres is No. 2) but it has appeared in 15 section title games since 1990, winning 10 times.
Jesuit beat Nevada Union 6-1 on Tuesday.
"Jesuit is the team to beat," Contreras said. "We know they're No. 1 in the state for a reason so we have to go out and work hard and play like we did today with some improvement."

Koroni or Coroni (Greek: Κορώνη) is a town and a former municipality in Messenia, Peloponnese, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Pylos-Nestoras, of which it is a municipal unit.[2] Known as Corone by the Venetians and Ottomans, the town of Koroni (pop. 1,668) sits on the southwest peninsula of the Peloponnese on the Gulf of Messinia in southern Greece 45 minutes southwest of Kalamata. The town is nestled on a hill below an impressive Venetian castle and reaches to the edge of the gulf. The town was the seat of the former municipality of Koróni, which has a land area of 105.163 km² and a population of 5,067 (2001 census). The municipal unit's next largest towns are Charokopeió (pop. 743), Chrysokellariá (528), and Vasilítsi (488). It also includes the uninhabited offshore island of Venétiko.
The town was founded in ancient times. The Greek geographer Pausanias in his book "Messiniaka" reports the original location of Koroni at today's Petalidi, a town a few kilometers north of Koroni. He also reports many temples of Greek gods and a copper statue of Zeus. Because of reorderings, in the centuries that followed the town of Koroni moved to its current location where the ancient town of Asini had once stood. In the 6th and 7th centuries AD, the Byzantines built a fortress there.
Following the fall of Constantinople to the Fourth Crusade in 1204, a Venetian fleet under Premarini and the son of Dandolo occupied it, and converted the port into a provisioning station "where all passing ships could receive a month's rations--a custom maintained, we are told, when the place became a regular Venetian colony."[3]
The fortress and town were captured by the Ottoman troops of Sultan Bayezid II in 1500. Apart from a short period under Habsburg Empire rule in the Siege of Coron in 1532-1534, when the fortress was defended by a few noble families as Baffa, Trasci, Marchianò, Mazzuca and Stratigò,[4] On August 11, 1685 the Holy League captured Koroni; of the over 1,300 slaves captured, a fourth were given to the Maltese knights. [5]There was a short return to Venetian rule (1686–1715) after the Morean War, they remained under the control of the Ottoman Empire until becoming part of the modern Greek state in 1828 when it was liberated by the French General Nicolas Joseph Maison.
Rocket Launch Site[edit]
Near Koroni, there was between 1966 and 1989 a facility for launching sounding rockets. The first launches performed from Koroni were done on May 20, 1966 for investigation a total-annular solar eclipse. These rockets reached an altitude of 114 kilometers. From 1972 to 1989 several Russian meteorological rockets of M-100 type were launched. They reached altitudes up to 95 kilometers. In total 371 rockets were launched.[6]

Spitfire Versus MX2
To celebrate the return of the Red Bull Air Race World Championship to London on 2 & 3 August this year, current World Championship leader Paul Bonhomme today took the controls of a 1940's Spitfire to try his hand at 'air racing' of a different kind. Bonhomme's aim was to test the speed and agility of the Spitfire, against a modern day plane designed specifically for the Red Bull Air Race, the MX2, piloted by his World Championship opponent Nigel Lamb. This year marks the 70th anniversary of the first production line Spitfire and the 85th anniversary of the first Schneider Trophy race in the UK which was a speed race over 200km contested by the Spitfire's predecessor, the Supermarine S.6b. In a nod to the UK Schneider Trophy course which was situated around the Solent over Calshot and Cowes, Bonhomme and Lamb flew their planes on a lap around the Isle of Wight, using the stunning Needles as a natural start and finish gate.

So Tiger Woods spends two hours a day in gym, Gary Player still does a thousand sit ups every morning. I don`t need to do that, it is there job to play golf. And so it goes. Yes they havethe time and money to devote their lives to their given sport but is that really an excuse for you to be lax in your approach. Fitness for Golf is not just a phrase that applies to the golf pro. In fact it is just as important to every golfer.

So, a brief summary:
According to every source known to Man, Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association have agreed to expand the postseason, adding one "Wild Card" in each league. There are details, though. Scheduling details. And those details have not been resolved, which throws the whole enterprise into question. In 2012, anyway. Especially with a March 1 deadline looming.
But, wait.
Source: #MLB and union still discussing extra wild card for this year, March 1 is not a hard deadline for decision.— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) February 28, 2012
And for our next trick, we will explain the difference between a deadline and a hard deadline.
Or not.
It sure does seem like everybody wants this to happen in 2012, which makes me think it will happen in 2012. Which will make a lot of contending teams really happy, because if you're targeting 90 wins in March your chances of winning the World Series goes up significantly if you've got an extra chance at qualifying for the tournament.

Phoenix police spokesman James Holmes says Daniel Lee Cook turned himself in Monday afternoon.
Police say Cook and 22-year-old Richard Bankston had been fighting at a north Phoenix apartment complex Sunday. The two fell into a swimming pool before getting out and continuing their fight.
Witnesses then reported seeing Bankston being struck with an object.
Police say they're unsure what started the fight.

Advisory Board: LightSquared, GPS Can't Coexist; Bland News Stories Avoid Falcone, Obama and Dem Campaign $
By Tom Blumer | January 15, 2012 | 21:50
On Friday, two Deputy Secretaries, one at the Department of Transportation and the other at Defense, in their capacities as co-chairs of the National Space-Based Positioning, Navigation and Timing (PNT) Executive Committee, released a one page letter concluding that the modified broadband deployment plan of LightSquared could not coexist with current GPS devices and their spectrum. That's because: a) LightSquared's deployment "would cause harmful interference to many GPS receivers"; b) It would not be "compatible with several GPS-dependent aircraft safety-of-flight systems," and c) "there appear to be no practical solutions" to the problems.
Stories about the release, to the extent they exist, are largely avoiding the mention of "Falcone" (that's hedge fund operator and heavy Obama campaign contributor Philip Falcone, "SEC" (which is investigating Falcone and his hedge fund, and "Obama" (as in President Barack Obama, the beneficiary along with the "Democratic Party" -- another unmentioned term in any variation -- of said contributions). Coverage by Daniel Fisher at Forbes at least brings up Falcone, the SEC, and the Obama administration:
The finding by the PNT committee strikes a severe blow against Falcone who has poured billions of dollars of his own and investors' money into LightSquared. He suspended redemptions from his Harbinger Capital after investors, who made $10 billion off of his successful bet against subprime securities, sought to pull their money from the fund that has since shrunk to $5 billion. He also faces unrelated Securities and Exchange Commission allegations of insider trading that could result in his suspension from the securities industry.
In response to the PNT committee announcement Harbinger said this: "We are confident that the tests, when the protocol is disclosed and the details are examined, will be shown to be invalid. ... This is nothing more than a thinly-veiled attempt by government agencies to protect the interests of the GPS industry who are unauthorized users infringing on spectrum licensed to LightSquared."
Regardless of how Falcone fares, his spectrum will likely remain valuable. In the letter, the PNT committee said it continues to "strongly support" President Obama's push for an additonal 500 megaherz of spectrum for broadband wireless use as cellular phones and other devices display an exponentially rising hunger for wireless bandwidth.
By contrast:
- I couldn't locate any mention of LightSquared in over a month in an advanced search on the company's name at the New York Times.
- The Associated Press story by Joan Lowy has a bland "Don't read me, I'm boring" headline ("Officials: Broadband plan would disrupt GPS") and contains none of the four key words/terms listed earlier.
- The Washington Post is only carrying the AP story and a somewhat puffy item about the company's new Chief Financial Officer (hmm).
- A Google News search for the past week done tonight at 8:30 p.m. ET (sorted by date without duplicates) returns 73 results -- pretty light for a story of this gravity.
Ed Morrissey at Hot Air brought up another point I didn't see elsewhere:
The ball now goes back to the FCC's court, but they have a big problem. The newly-signed National Defense Authorization Act created a legal restriction on the FCC to ensure that current GPS services remain free of interference, and have to report every 90 days for the next two years on that status. With two governmental bodies reporting to the FCC that LSQ's system substantially interferes with GPS systems in commercial, military, and aviation applications, there is almost certainly no legal way that the FCC can sign off on Philip Falcone's attempt to build a 4G network on the cheap.
If the Obama administration is lucky, LightSquared will quietly go away. The press is ready to bury it; the only question appears to be whether the company and Falcone will cooperate by dropping their current contentious posture and sell the valuable spectrum to someone else.

#1 Nice find, Tom
Submitted by Blonde on Sun, 01/15/2012 - 9:54pm.
Twenty years ago, GPS really had limited applications, but now, it's huge.
It will be interesting if Obama tries to decree LightSquared use of "their" portion of the spectrum, to help out his donor.

#2 Letting Lightsquared use
Submitted by forest on Mon, 01/16/2012 - 8:02am.
Letting Lightsquared use their cheap spectrum for terrestrial use would be the equivalent of putting several billion in cash in their pockets. Solyndra is pocket change compared to this.
The spectrum that Lightsquared has is for low power satellite communications. It costs a small fraction of the price of the spectrum used by other wireless communication companies for terrestrial communications (cell towers/hand held devices). The cell phone and wireless internet companies spend billions upon billions on spectrum and have been aggressively expanding coverage in rural areas (contrary to Obama's demagoging on the subject). Changing the parameters of that spectrum would put Lightsquared at a huge financial advantage to their competitors. Even if interference was not an issue at all, this is a major story of corruption.

Maybe we shouldn't have been super-surprised when the San Francisco Giants won the World Series. But considering they did it with their $20 million starting pitcher struggling all season? And with their best first-half hitter suspended for most of the second half, never to be seen again? As if all that weren't enough, this was the Giants' second World Championship in three years, after going without one for their first 52 seasons in San Francisco. I just don't see how that wasn't the biggest baseball story among baseball stories in 2012.
Ah, but what about the second-biggest baseball story? I've got 10 candidates for you ...
McCourt out as Dodgers owner; billionaires in.
When 2012 began, the Los Angeles Dodgers seemed to be stuck with one of the worst owners of a professional sports team in recent memory, apparently intent on plundering the franchise's treasury while real-estate and hair-style prices were still depressed. But in March, something called Guggenheim Partners and someone called Magic Johnson purchased the Dodgers and Dodger Stadium for $2.15 billion. Since then, the new magnates have been spending money like they've an unlimited supply of money ... which they essentially do, thanks to their next television deal.
Just shy of 50, Moyer sets all-time record.
Jamie Moyer suffered a serious elbow injury in 2010, when he was 47 years old. Most guys probably would have called it a career. Moyer didn't. After spending 2011 recovering from Tommy John surgery, Moyer pitched well in spring training with the Rockies, and broke camp with a slot in the rotation. And on the 17th of April, in his third start, Moyer pitched seven strong innings and became the oldest pitcher in major-league history to win a regular-season game. But he would win just once more, and presumably has finished his career with 269 victories.
Johan Santana throws Met' first no-hitter.
Sure, it took umpire Adrian Johnson's blown call, but Carlos Beltrán's line drive down the left-field line will forever be a foul ball in The Great Scorebook of History -- even though it actually fell to the ground a foot or so fair -- and so Johan Santana's no-hitter will forever reside as the Mets' first no-hitter, coming in the franchise's 51st season.
Orioles go from worst to (almost) first.
After four straight last-place seasons and 14 straight losing seasons, the Baltimore Orioles went from 69-93 in 2011 to 93-69 in 2012, then topped the Rangers in the American League's Wild Card Game before taking the Yankees to the limit in a dramatic Division Series. The O's went 16-2 in extra-inning games, and set some sort of record by going 29-9 in contests decided by just one run.
Athletics mount one of history's greatest comebacks.
A year ago, at least one Bay Area writer said the Oakland A's had completely given up. Then they outbid everybody else for Cuban outfielder Yoenis Cespedes. But after losing to Texas on the last day of June, the A's were 13 games behind the first-place Rangers. And then they got hot, going 18-5 in July to get back into the conversation. Later there was a nine-game winning streak in August, and a six-game winning streak to close out the season. Those last three victories came against the Rangers, and resulted in Oakland's first division title and postseason berth since 2006; they didn't hold first place for a single moment until recording the last out of their last game.
Two Perfect Games at Safeco Field?
Entering 2012, there had been 20 perfect games thrown in major-league games. In 2012, there were three more ... and two of those were thrown in Seattle's Safeco Field. The first of those came in April, and now seems highly unlikely, as Phil Humber would eventually lose his rotation slot and finish the season with a 6.44 ERA (or 7.06 without the perfecto). The second came in August, and seemed highly likely. Well, relatively speaking, as Félix Hernández has been one of the game's best pitchers for some years now.
Strasburg shuts the whole thing down.
Entering the season, Washington Nationals management said that Stephen Strasburg, who'd thrown only 24 innings in 2011 after recovering from Tommy John surgery, would be allowed to throw only 170 innings in 2012. During the season, management said some other things, but ultimately Strasburg was shut down in August after throwing 159⅓ innings. The Nationals still led the National League with 98 wins, but lost a heartbreaking Division Series to the Cardinals, with both Jordan Zimmermann and Edwin Jackson struggling in their single starts.
Miguel Cabrera does it "all".
Barry Bonds, Albert Pujols, Frank Thomas, Manny Ramirez, Hank Aaron, Frank Robinson, Jeff Bagwell, Edgar Martinez, Reggie Jackson, Mike Schmidt, Mike Piazza, Alex Rodriguez, Gary Sheffield, Larry Walker. What do all of those players have in common? All were great hitters, and all failed to win a Triple Crown. As did every other hitter, great or otherwise, since 1967, when Carl Yastrzremski led the American League in batting average, home runs, and RBI. Until, that is, Cabrera batted .330-44-139 for the pennant-winning Tigers in 2012, capturing the first Triple Crown in 45 years.
Marlins stop rebuilding, implode, give up, start rebuilding.
Last winter, the re-named and new-homed Miami Marlins spent big money on free agents Heath Bell, Mark Buehrle and Jose Reyes. They hired an exciting new manager, Ozzie Guillen. For a moment in early June, they owned a share of first place. And then everything fell apart. The Marlins went 38-70 after the 3rd of June, and finished in last place. And between Thanksgiving and Christmas, they traded virtually every player making a real salary -- Reyes, Buehrle, Bell, Josh Johnson -- and clearly signaling to their fans that competing for a postseason berth in 2013 or '14 isn't really part of the plan.
Blue Jays make their move.
The Marlins' losses were quite literally the Toronto Blue Jays' gains, as the Jays turned themselves into immediate contenders this winter by trading for Marlins stars Buehrle, Reyes, and Johnson. And they might have turned themselves into favorites a few weeks later when they acquired National League Cy Young Award winner R.A. Dickey, and signed him to a contract extension through 2015.

One-third of adults are now obese, and children's obesity rates have climbed from 5 to 17 percent in the past 30 years. The causes of the nation's obesity epidemic are multi-factorial, having much more to do with the absence of sidewalks and the limited availability of healthy and affordable foods than a lack of personal responsibility. The broad societal changes that are needed to prevent obesity will inevitably affect activity and eating environments and settings for all ages. Many aspects of the obesity problem have been identified and discussed; however, there has not been complete agreement on what needs to be done to accelerate progress.
Accelerating Progress in Obesity Prevention reviews previous studies and their recommendations and presents five key recommendations to accelerate meaningful change on a societal level during the next decade. The report suggests recommendations and strategies that, independently, can accelerate progress, but urges a systems approach of many strategies working in concert to maximize progress in accelerating obesity prevention.
The recommendations in Accelerating Progress in Obesity Prevention include major reforms in access to and opportunities for physical activity; widespread reductions in the availability of unhealthy foods and beverages and increases in access to healthier options at affordable, competitive prices; an overhaul of the messages that surround Americans through marketing and education with respect to physical activity and food consumption; expansion of the obesity prevention support structure provided by health care providers, insurers, and employers; and schools as a major national focal point for obesity prevention. The report calls on all individuals, organizations, agencies, and sectors that do or can influence physical activity and nutrition environments to assess and begin to act on their potential roles as leaders in obesity prevention.

|Never too old
By Mary Friedel-Hunt
I saw a picture on Pinterest last week. The picture was of a mother bird returning to a branch where her three babies were waiting with open mouths. My first thought was wondering what that mother bird felt. Consider the mother who works long weeks at an office job, or any job, and comes home to three children, each of whom wants her attention. After paying the babysitter and taking her home — with the three kids in the car — they return home where mom now cooks dinner, makes sure the kids have their homework done and baths taken and then interacts with each of them individually and together.By 9 p.m., if she is lucky, she has time

For Escobar, the chance to play every day appears a nice ending from having surgery on his left knee to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament two years ago. Last year could have been considered a rehab season for Escobar, who played in 28 games and hit .273 in 99 at-bats.
Lineup outlook:
Wedge laid out two plans of attack this season. Against right-handers, opposing teams could see a batting order of Matt Lawton (left field), Omar Vizquel (shortstop), Jody Gerut (right field), Broussard (first base), Casey Blake (third base), Victor Martinez (catcher), Travis Hafner (designated hitter), Ronnie Belliard (second base) and Crisp (center field). Against lefties, it could be Belliard, Vizquel, Gerut, Escobar (RF/LF), Broussard, Blake, Martinez, Lawton (DH) and Crisp.

Lets all unite against Uncle Ken and his inability to take a punishment like a man.

CATEGORIES MoviesChristian Bale may have driven around Gotham in a black Lamborghini during "The Dark Knight," but that was as Bruce Wayne, not Batman.
Nevertheless, that didn't stop one citizen in Silver Spring, Maryland from taking a spin in his sports car dressed as the masked crusader. Unfortunately, he ended up being pulled over by local police when cops noticed his license plate was just a bat emblem.
According to WTOP, the man was en route to visit sick children in the hospital, which was why he was wearing costume.
Thankfully, the officers decided to take some photographic evidence of the traffic stop. You can check out all of the photos over on the Montgomery County Police Department's Facebook page.
Hopefully, these types of frivolous events will not occur in "The Dark Knight Rises," which hits theaters on July 20.

Does not fit the IPhone 5!
When I saw this I had to have it. I have other dustplugs but Hello Kitty has been a chilhood accessory and could not resist purchasing this. Unfortunately, it does not fit the Iphone 5 correctly. The plug is too big! It fits up to the last ring so it sticks out a little and you can see the white of the plug. I believe this should be stated in the description. The Hello Kitty itself is super cute and made well. I decided to keep it eventhough it didnt fit well b/c it wasn't a deal breaker for me but for someone else it might be and it should be stated in the description!

Plugin for setting default state of Groups/Members widgets
I was tired of hacking the core to make this work (and rehacking each time I upgraded ) so I wrote a plugin for it: http://dev.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2009/09/07/new-buddypress-plugin-enhanced-buddypress-widgets/. It adds new Groups and Members widgets that are basically duplicates of the core Groups and Members widgets, with the added feature that you can choose whether you want them to display Active, Newest, or Popular on page load.

Wonderful Save-the-Date
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets I loved my save-the-date! I went with a light blue background color with our engagement picture. We went with the wording that was already set with the save-the-date. I was very happy with how high of quality the magnet was. I am so happy with my save-the-date and have received so many compliments on them.
Great product
Floral Lace Save the Date Magnets These turned out great! I loved the amount we could customize, but still preserve the original look and feel. The price point was great as well.
Great graphics!
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets Not only was I impressed with the design of my magnet save-the-dates, I was also thrilled that magnet street sent me a 25% off code in the mail! Even before my discount they still ranked at being the best priced magnet invites over all the other top retailers on the internet. The magnets are a little flimsy, but they work just fine. I will definitely be ordering my invites/programs from them!
Love my magnets!
Modern Honeycomb Lace Save the Date Magnets Absolutely beautiful magnets! Shopping online was fast an easy and i found a coupon code that made them the cheapest. So i was able to order many extra magnets at a freat price. Order processing was super fast and I received them in just a few days! Great consumer service! Great quality ... They all turned out exactly how it appeared online. I loved the cutomizability ... Changed up some fonts and spacing the way I wanted it. I've received so many compliments on my magnets! Thanks so much!
Adorable Magnets
Floral Lace Save the Date Magnets We had so much fun creating our save-the-date magnets! We really liked how we could personalize our magnet and then had the choice to save our progress to finish later on. There were so many fonts and color choices. We received many compliments on our magnet. The only downside was that we couldn't order the exact quantity we wanted because they require orders of 25.

Internet Law
Lawyer's Defamation Suit Against Courtney Love over Tweet May Be Headed to Trial
Posted Feb 17, 2012 11:00 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
A California judge has tentatively ruled against Courtney Love's argument in a defamation suit that her Twitter posts are statements of opinion rather than fact.
Love's former lawyers, Frederic Gordon and Rhonda Holmes of San Diego, had sued the rocker over this tweet: "I was f------ devastated when Rhonda J Holmes Esq of San Diego was bought off." The lawyers claim Love wrote the defamatory tweet after she hired them, fired them, and then sought unsuccessfully to rehire them.
The tentative decision by Judge Ramona See of California found that the tweet "may be reasonably interpreted by the average reader as a statement of fact," according to the Hollywood Reporter's Hollywood, Esq. Facts may be libelous, the column explains, while opinions are not.
According to the story, "The case continues and looks headed to a jury trial."

Through this hobby, I now make time to take a closer look at the delicate and extraordinary life of flowers - from the promise of tiny buds to the brittle beauty of their skeletal remains. I've learned to look for the little miracles that take place in my own backyard and which often go unnoticed while we rush through life.

Green is growing in popularity.
"Green Day Frolic" is the theme of this week's First Fridays event in downtown Goshen, highlighted by a 5k run and 2k walk.
"It's a fun event as well as an athletic event," said Gina Leichty, director of Downtown Goshen Inc., which promotes First Fridays. It's also an activity for which Leichty is anticipating a strong turnout.
Leichty said Wednesday that more people have registered in advance for the event than ever before. As of mid-week, 250 people had registered, compared to 180 people last year.
Registration runs from 4:30 to 5:45 p.m. at the corner of Lincoln Avenue and Main Street, with the 5k run set to start at 6 p.m. The 2k walk starts at 6:10 p.m.
Leichty said the run/walk starting point will be at Lincoln and Main. Participants will head down Main Street to Washington Street and then proceed to the millrace trail.
Competitors will receive prizes for the fastest times in various age divisions. Runners and walkers are also urged to wear green attire. Event organizers will award a prize for best costume.
Other First Fridays highlights include:
• Musicians who will perform along the running path. Players will include Caleb Sawin on the banjo and Logan Miller and Nathaniel Tann on acoustic guitar.
• Inflatable jumpers for children to enjoy on the courthouse lawn from 6 to 8 p.m.
• Young dancers in the Goshen Parks and Recreation program "Dance in the City" will perform from 7:30 to 8 p.m. at the Goshen Theater ballroom, 216 S. Main St. Leichty said the dancers will be doing pieces from their spring recital.
Looking ahead
This week, First Fridays enthusiasts are invited to go for a run or walk. Next month, it's time to ride.
Criterium races and a bike festival are scheduled for May 3 and 4. Events will be offered for competitive cyclists, and rides for children and families will be available as well.
"Biking is really huge in Goshen and the surrounding area, so we want to make Goshen a place where people can go for that event," Leichty said.
First Fridays is a monthly event highlighting businesses, artists and entertainers in downtown Goshen. Downtown Goshen Inc. is a not-for-profit group focused on the growth and vibrancy of the city's commercial core.

text: Dave Alu of Jackson, N.J. expected to catch a big weakfish while being guided during a May 6 night shore fishing trip on Staten Island by Capt. Rich Swisstack of Cliffwood, N.J. as that Shore Catch Guide Service skipper had been finding one or two tiderunners in the 12-to-15-pound class every night for two weeks. Those spawning weaks were being released, but Swisstack and his partner, Capt. Dave Torrick of Clark, N.J., recognized that the one Alu landed after it hit a bunker head was really exceptional. They assumed the weakfish record would be over 20 pounds, and were shocked when Swisstack's father, an IGFA member, looked it up and found it to be "just" 19 pounds 2 ounces - a mark shared by Dennis Rooney at Jones Inlet, N.Y. on Oct. 11, 1984 and William Thomas in Delaware Bay on May 10, 1989. After first weighing their weak at the Tackle Box in Hazlet at 19 pounds, 12 ounces, they returned to Staten Island and got the same weight on the certified scale at Michael's Tackle in Great Kills to also claim the New York state record.

Great brown color. Very little carbonation. Thick head when poured, but disappeared shortly afterward. Nice caramel smell. Very drinkable, not a lot of bite at all. Smooth going down as well, not heavy.

4.28/5 rDev +4.4%
Presentation: 12 oz brown long neck bottle with "Packaged In" date on the side of the label.
Appearance: Deep brown bordering black, tiny bubbled but foamy head that stays strong and does not want to go anywhere.
Smell: Herbal and floral hop aroma on top of an unsweetened chocolate and caramelized sugar that some close to a light molasses. Touch of alcoholic esters and dark fruity undertones are detected.
Taste: Fiercely smooth with a layer and complex mouth feel of the medium body. Intricate within the malt flavours ranging from burnt sugar to light roasted malt, nutty almost chocolate to dark bread. Hops are well within the threshold and wield an oily bitterness, flavours tag right along with herbal and floral to the point of being nearly sweet. Mild alcoholic esters with a light mix berry and currant fruitiness. Unsweetened chocolate flavour unfolds slowly on to the taste buds middle to end, close to a carob flavour. Veggie hop finish with remnants of the toasted and roasted malts in the after taste.
Notes: A big yet somewhat humble brown ale, all the flavours and complexities are there but none really want to be dominant. This could be considered a stock or strong ale due to its 7.2% abv, look at it as a sizeable brown ale. An impressive brew.

delicious. just roasted enough to not quite taste burned. the caramelized sugar works well to ease the edge and hide any boozy flavors without being classically sweet.

The pour exposed a deep reddish-brown body with a rich, thick, frothy light tan head (4.25). Aroma features nuts and chicory; brown sugar and cocoa (4.0). Bitterly sweet malt flavors; chocolate; noticeable alcohol heat; smooth bitterness rises from the back and lingers on the palate at the finish (4.25). Medium bodied; rich, silky, and dry finish (4.5).
This beer exudes a robust malt sweetness and hop bitterness, well-balanced with excellent flavor depth and complexity (4.25).

Pours a dark almost black color with a nice 2 finger beige colored head that dissipates slowly leaving really nice lacing on the 20 oz pub glass.
Smell is of roasted malts, coffee, chocolate and molasses. Really nice smell to it, I really smells world class.
Taste lets the nose tell the story for it. Really nice sweetness to it with the coffee, and chocolate taking center stage. There is some hop bitterness that comes in in the middle to really balance this one out nicely. The end of the taste is really clean for such a sweet caramely taste at the beginning. The hops really clean it up.
Mouthfeel is really nice with it being really velvety smooth but with enough carbonation to make it really drinkable.
They say this is a mixture of a scotch ale and an IPA and to make it a brown ale. That really tells the tale for me. It is really nice and caramely and sweet but it also has the hop bite that really balances it out well. Another really nice beer from Dog Fish.

A: They call this a brown ale, but it pours coffee-black. Nice head to start, with OK retention. The initial sight is one to behold. Head looks creamy and caramel-colored atop a dark, brooding abyss beneath. By the bottom half of my beer, the head was gone with little to no lacing.
S: The nose is full of fresh roasted coffee, brown sugar, dried plums, molasses, big malts, and a hint of... pine. Yes, pine. But just a touch.
T: Coffee, caramel, gingerbread cookies. The brown sugar comes through nicely, with a touch of sweetness, but not cloying. The hops are noticeable, but bitterness is low; leaving the piney-herbaceous notes in focus. The finish is a long dance between espresso, and the grassy-piney. Caramel notes come out to play from time to time, as do the warming esters of the alcohol (but not too much, at 7.2% ABV).
M: Lighter-bodied than the color suggests. Fairly fine carbonation makes for a soft, sturdy mouth-feel that still manages to not come off as heavy or domineering. A big beer in a small package. A hefty contender that has a certain amount of style and grace.
Hmm. This was a surprise. It's a little of a lot of things. I like it. Not my favorite profile, to be sure, but interesting. Challenging enough to induce contemplation, but quite easy to drink. The bitterness is moderate, a culmination of the interplay hops and roast. I like this and already recommended it to someone looking for something different.
