Creative Backyard Car Town Party
Welcome to Four Town! The 'Cars Capital' of Aiden's 4th Birthday Party.
Created by the very talented & crafty Sharon, this Backyard Cars Party was an absolute hit with the kids (Drivers) and their parents (Pit Crew).
The guests were greeted by Safety Cones and a tower of Red & Black balloons, with a sign directing them to the fun ahead.
Then, the kids got to pick their own handmade cardboard box cars, complete with paper plate wheels, from the Car Park, and had the chance to fill up with Petrol at the Petrol Station, and Change & 'Pump Up' their Tyre's and Check Oil & Tyre Pressure in Luke's Auto & Tyre Shop. There was even a Car Wash complete with Bubble wrap, Foam Guide Poles, Balloons and Streamers!
Car Town was made complete with Cardboard Box Traffic Lights, Stop Signs & Give Way Signs. A giant chalkboard allowed the kids to get creative and a colouring table full of cars pictures gave them the chance to have a rest from all that driving.
For snacks, the kids were treated to car themed foods and a delicious themed birthday cake.
With most of this party being handmade and created from Cardboard and Paint, Sharon said it was very inexpensive, if not a little time consuming to create. As you can tell, this party was well worth the effort because it looks amazing, and the smiles on the kids faces speak absolute volumes!
Great Job Sharon ~ What a fantastic Party idea!

Handmade Paper Christmas Wreath {How to}
Create this Easy Do-it -Yourself Handmade Christmas Paper Wreath simply using a wreath base, an old book, some sticky tape, and a touch of Christmas Creative Flair!
You will Need:
1 x Sheet of 50mm thick Corflute (available at Office Supply Stores)
1 x 50cm piece of string
1 x Old Book
A Stanley Knife
A Pencil
Sticky Tape
Double Sided Poster Tape (optional)
Step 1
Decide how large you would like your wreath. Keep in mind that the wreath will end up being around 8-10cm wider when finished. Our wreath was cut at 45cm Diameter.
When you know the size you want, tie your piece of string to your pencil. Find the centre of the corflute and measure the size you need from the pencil to the end of the string.
Hold the string in the centre at your desired diameter in the centre with your finger, and draw/move the pencil around the edge, creating a circle as you do so.
Leave a gap of about 10cm, then repeat this step to create your inner circle.
Carefully cut your wreath shape out of the corflute with a stanley knife. Puncture two holes of the corflute on the wreath at the top, and cut a piece of string of about 20cm, then thread your string through the holes to create your hanger.
Step 2
Open your old book and start carefully pulling the pages out from the spine, so you have several individual pages.
Fold each page of the book into thirds, lengthways, to form a zig zag fold.
It's a good idea to fold several pages, so you can get sticking easily with lots of pages ready.
Step 3
Begin sticking your folded book leaves to your wreath base with an overlap of the edge of about 5cm. Slightly fold the bottom of each book leaf under so it sits up a little.
Use as much sticky tape as you need, you won't see it at the end.
Continue to add book leaves on top of each other – spaced about 5cm, and overlapping, around the entire wreath.
step 4
When you have completed the first layer, continue to add your folded book leaves on a second level (picture 4), making sure there is a 2-3cm gap between the edge of the first layer, and the edge your next layer, but also a 1-2cm gap between where you are sticking the leaves and the inner edge of the wreath (to leave room for a 3rd layer) picture 5).
step 5
When you have completed your second layer, begin adding book leaves for a third layer (picture 6).
However, this time, fold the bottom of the folded leaf under the inside wreath edge, and stick at the back, giving the wreath a nice finish, and covering up your 'mechanics' (picture 7).
Again, use as much sticky tape as you need to, especially on the back, as it's clear and won't be seen.
step 6
When you have added book leaves all the way around your wreath, and made sure the inner edge has a nice clean finish, place & tape the last leave under the first book leaf, to create a seamless fan effect.
Decorate your wreath with Paper decorations such as stars or holly and attach with double sided poster tape if desired, or just use sticky tape folded onto itself.

Happy Paper Wreath Making & Have a Very Merry Christmas! xo Amy

The North Alabama Better Business Bureau is warning about an email scam tied to the Philippines typhoon tragedy.
Michele Mason with the BBB said the person in the bogus email claims they are stuck in the Philippines and the hotel is holding their luggage until they can pay their bills. The person claims they need help getting money so they can get back into the US.
"You should never use any kind of wiring service or load money onto a Green Dot MoneyPak and give that money off the card to someone you do not know because they claim they need your help with our emergency situation," said Mason.
Mason said if you get an email from someone you know claiming they're in an emergency situation, contact that person directly to verify if it's true or bogus.
If you suspect fraudulent activity related to the Philippines relief effort, you are asked to report your concerns to the National Center for Disaster Fraud at 1-866-720-6721.

According to Crider, developers can "componentize" these pieces of functionality, reaggregate them, and create new business processes -- although the resulting applications must run on the NetWeaver platform. But there's nothing to stop portal servers on other platforms from drawing on apps built on SAP business logic. Nothing, that is, except incremental cost. Although the licensing details are still hazy, Gartner's Phifer notes that enterprise application vendors now view portals as a grand opportunity to grow revenue by exporting the functionality of their apps to more users.
And how does the world's largest software company fit into the portal picture? While most agree that the latest version of Microsoft's SharePoint Portal Server is a good product, the company is clearly ambivalent about enterprise portals. And no wonder, Phifer says. "If the Webtop became a reality, Microsoft has the most to lose because right now Microsoft owns the eyeballs of corporate Earth," he says. "And if I suddenly switch over to a Web browser with a portal being displayed, my eyeballs are focusing on the portal and not on the Microsoft desktop."
Portal to the Future
As a countermeasure, predicts Phifer, Microsoft will eventually launch a desktop portal application that will integrate enterprise portal functionality into Windows. Meanwhile, other portal servers continue to bulk up on features, particularly search, content management, identity management, and collaboration (including instant messaging). The latest version of WebSphere Portal Server even bundles browser versions of Lotus applications, including Notes, a text editor, and a spreadsheet.
Third parties are also enriching the portal environment. IBM and Plumtree have been particularly effective in cultivating third-party portlet development, so that instead of building portlets, IT can license them for specific applications at minimal cost. Until recently, portlets were specific to the platform for which they were written. But thanks to new interoperability standards, that situation is changing. Standards will accelerate the development of third-party portlets, which already address a broad swath of vertical applications.
IBM's Bowden likes to say that this is the era of "leveraging" the portal. In other words, when one department deploys a portal, others follow. "All of the sudden your sales team wants one, your partner network wants one, your services team wants one, your financial officer want to use it," he says. And when the infrastructure for one departmental portal is in place, adding others requires only incremental effort. IBM is accelerating adoption by creating prebuilt portals for vertical applications --such as a recent collaboration with KPMG that resulted in a portal devoted to Sarbanes-Oxley reporting. In 2004, Bowden says he plans to roll out 60 new vertical portals.
We're still a long way from the late '90s dream of an overarching enterprise portal, where everyone logs on once over their first cup of coffee and immediately gets a perfectly tailored Webtop with all the applications and data necessary for work. Instead, IT is discovering that the integration and development frameworks provided by portals offer practical, even elegant, solutions to common business problems.

Mobile gaming has recently found a comfortable spot in between the giants of the industry that have dominated for so long: Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony. There has always been an element of gaming since handheld mobile came to fruition, as early as the Nokia 3310, but now with HD displays and powerful processors, games like FIFA are equally as enjoyable and realistic as they are on the big screen.
Enjoying handheld gaming is nothing revolutionary, take Gameboy for example. The key difference between playing on a Gameboy and playing on your smartphone is that your thumbs don't get in the way of the display on the former. It was this key element that always set the two apart, but with the swift disappearance of physical buttons on our phones, there stood a problem.
However, developers have been listening and have presented various external ways to game, including the iCade (pictured above), designed to work with an iPad. By placing an iPad within the iCade, the user creates the screen of the miniature arcade cabinet and opens the gateway to a retro gaming haven. iCade features a joystick and various digital buttons, dependent on model, to effectively relive the classics.
Some of the flagship video games that we've enjoyed over the years have made their way to the mobile platform recently too. Series' like Grand Theft Auto have become available via app stores to enjoy on the small screen, but deliver the same experience accredited to physical consoles.
The chipsets now found in the industry's leading smartphones have made this level of gaming possible. We're heading towards a time where it mightn't be so unreasonable to suggest that the mobile platform could one day effectively rival that of the home console.
Another key advantage that would be unfair to overlook, is that mobile gaming is a much more convenient and portable. Long gone are the times when we were tethered to the TV with a cable, but downloadable games and apps can now be played literally anywhere with little restriction on environment.

Tinker in Peace
A closed-source code base is a huge, ever-fading inertial mass. When it begins, with those first exhilarating lines, or even up through the first few releases, you can truly say that you are writing it. But after a while, it is more like you are tending it – or feeding it. It becomes an investment, an asset, a castle you are protecting, which means all your strategies are defensive and your dreams will not stray far from your spot of holy ground.
The bigger and more grandiose a code base becomes, the more time and effort it takes to nurture and sustain it, and even with all your love and effort, it still starts to look ragged after enough time – no matter what you do or how much you care. When the time comes for it to become something completely different, you can't just re-form it like silly putty. The best you can hope is to tweak it around the edges and force it into some kind of tenuous interface with the tools of the next generation. Eventually, the details of maintaining that interface start to undermine the aura of technical relevance one needs to sell the software. So it was with MS-DOS, Novell NetWare, and Mac OS 9.

Oregon coaches upset over ASU student fan spitting on Ducks in loss
Originally published: Feb 8, 2014 - 6:48 pm
Andrew Greif of the Oregonian reported that Oregon players, coaches and trainers were spit on by ASU students -- which surround the tunnel that visiting teams use to enter and exit the court at Wells Fargo Arena.
As Greif writes:
Oregon basketball staff members declined to press charges against an Arizona State student who spit on both assistant coach Brian Fish and athletic trainer Clay Jamieson after Oregon's 74-72 loss to Arizona State on Saturday at Wells Fargo Arena.
Minutes after the incident, the Ducks were followed to their locker room by two university police officers investigating the spitting, which officers told UO staff members was witnessed by at least two people.
The incident occurred as the Ducks walked from their bench to the locker room up a ramp that is flanked by two sections of students. Both head coach Dana Altman and Fish said it is the only such setup in the Pac-12.
Greif said that Oregon guard Jason Calliste drew the students' ire after pacing near the Ducks' bench in front of the student section after being shaken up on a play at the rim, and later toying with students on his way to the locker room.
Greif also reports that Oregon's assistant director of basketball operations was upset over the lack of security near the team's entrance, and planned on lodging a formal complaint with ASU's event manager.

Fired Manchester officer charged in Bedford hit and run to see pension
Pensions continue under the New Hampshire Retirement System, even if a member is arrested and convicted of a crime, said system spokesman Marty Karlon.
But other benefits aren't available. Because Coco didn't retire from his job, he won't be eligible for benefits such as a medical subsidy or survior benefit, Karlon said.
And he will have to wait to get his pension. Coco is 41; no one is eligible for pension benefits until the age of 45, Karlon said.
He had been with the city for 17 years and 8 months before his termination on Monday. Based on his departing annual salary of $84,000, Coco's pension will amount to about $37,100 a year.

Women's Soccer Records Fall in 10-0 Win Over Alabama A&M
Sept. 1, 2000
ORLANDO, Fla. - Alabama A&M 0 0 - 0 Jacksonville 7 3 - 10
Scoring: JU Hanni Wenzell (Marit Foss), 12:59, Hanni Wenzell (Kathy Ciriello), 13:38, Marit Foss, 16:26, Trine Riis Groven (Marit Foss), 19:51, Trine Riis Groven (Marit Foss), 24:07, Vanessa Illanes (Trine Riis Groven), 26:06, Trine Riis Groven (Vanessa Illanes, Hanni Wenzell), 36:09, Kristen Holstrom (Marit Foss), 68:00, Brooke Moore (Marit Foss), 74:14, Dianne Scott (Marit Foss).

Jacksonville forwards Marit Foss (Hamresanden, Norway) and Trine Riis Groven (Skien, Norway) each set JU records as the Dolphin's defeated Alabama A&M 10-0 at the UCF Tournament Friday night in women's soccer action.
Foss, a senior, set a record for assists in a match with a career-high six, breaking her own record of three set back on Oct. 14, 1998 against Flagler. Her six assists also ties the NCAA record shared with Holly Manthei of Notre Dame and Colleen McMahon of Mt. Saint Joseph's.
Riss Groven, who scored three goals in the win, tied JU's Lisa Jaffray for shots in a match with eight. JU also set team records in shots (33), goals (10), team assists (10).
Sophomore Kristen Kirsch (Green Bay, Wisc.) and freshman Sara Scalese (Brewster, Mass.) shared a shut-out splitting time in goal for the Dolphins, as the JU defense did not allow any shots. JU out-shot Alabama A&M 33-0.
Freshman defender Hanni Wenzell (Camino, Wash.) opened the scoring for the Dolphins off a corner kick from Foss at the 12:59 mark. Wenzell's second goal, a 30-yard shot from Kathy Ciriello (Prospect, Conn.), came less than 40 seconds later. Also scoring for the Dolphins were Foss, Vanessa Illanes (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.), Kristen Holstrom (Anaheim, Calif.), Brooke Moore (Tampa, Fla.) and Dianne Scott (Houston, Texas).
The Dolphins face Florida International on Sunday at 12:30 p.m. in their final match of the UCF Tournament.

Broken clock set to honour WW1 poet (From East London and West Essex Guardian Series)

Waltham Abbey clock set to remember Rupert Brooke
Updated 4:20pm Thursday 13th February 2014 in Epping Forest By David Eggboro, Reporter - Epping Forest
A broken church clock stuck on 8.55 since the turn of the year will be re-set to honour a First Word War poet.
Waltham Abbey Church does not have the money to fix the clock, which dates back to the 1880s, but has decided to move the hands to mark 2.50 to reference a poem by Rupert Brooke.
The Old Vicarage was written in 1912, but the Brooke became known for his writings during the First World War.
The verse referred to is as follows:
Say, is there Beauty yet to find?
And Certainty? and Quiet kind?
Deep meadows yet, for to forget
The lies, and truths, and pain? . . . oh! yet
Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?
Brooke was killed, aged 27, during a mission in the Aegean Sea in 1915.
The people of Waltham Abbey have checked the time on the tower since the 1600s and the chimes every 15 minutes can no longer be heard since it stopped.
Clock makers Gillett and Johnston, formally Gillett and Co, made the clock and are advising the church on how to repair it.
Church warden Richard Walters said: "We wanted to change the time to reference the poem and we thought it was appropriate seeing as this year marks 100 years since the start of the First World Rupert Brooke died in the war."
The centenary of the oubreak of the First World War is in August.

Geographic Information Council (WAGIC)
February 17, 2000
Introductions – Larry Sugarbaker, WAGIC Chair - From Lacey, Larry opened the meeting and welcomed council members in the Tri-Cities, Bellingham, Spokane, Seattle, Vancouver, and
Wenatchee. Larry asked for a motion to accept the December 16, 1999 meeting minutes as written. The motion was made and passed.
Digital Government Plan - Paul Taylor, Deputy Director, DIS
Paul Taylor presented the recently released Digital Government Plan. This plan provides the framework for agency collaboration in three key areas: Internet applications, infrastructure, and policy. The plan sets a vision for putting citizens in charge of their relationship with government through the same e-commerce and digital technologies that are transforming the consumer experience in the private sector. As state agencies build new web applications, the Digital Government Plan will brings infrastructure to projects such as electronic payments, authentication, and encryption. The plan signals the intent to move forward on utilizing the Internet while it provides the opportunity for collaboration between state agencies and local jurisdictions. Paul encouraged members to review the plan at www.access.wa.gov/e-gov.
Integrated Natural Resources Data System (INRDS) - Elizabeth Lanzer, WSDOT
In March 1999, a document was released which reviewed the ways data played into salmon recovery. INRDS is a public/private/tribal partnership whose primary sponsors include WSDOT, Battelle (Pacific Northwest Labs) and the Tulalip Tribes (in conjunction with the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission). The partnership is looking at putting together a pilot project in the Snohomish area with a focus on transportation planning.
The INRDS project will not build another data clearinghouse or duplicate framework efforts but rather leverage those results. While the project focus has shifted away from only salmon recovery, it is looking to provide a public web site for transportation planning partners, which explores environmental issues. The system will retrieve information and apply it to a specific planning problem, which in this case is transportation. An integrated data system such as INRDS can be applied to many areas including salmon recovery and watershed planning. The current goal is to focus on the pilot and bring it down to specifics
INRDS hopes to bring in some un-traditional partnerships and perspectives to the Washington Transportation Plan through the application of this technology. In considering transportation planning this document endeavors to balance fundamental values such as society, environment, and communities. INRDS provides an environmental filter before the 20-year plan is committed to paper. Funding for INRDS is provided through WSDOT, grants obtained by the Tulalip Indian Tribe and the Northwest Indian Commission. Battelle is providing project management.
GDT Community Update Program - John Auble, Program Manager
Larry reminded members that Geographic Data Technology (GDT) had announced its intent to create data partnerships which allowed the private sector to be involved with various public sector governments to create to transportation frameworks. John Auble, the Community Update program manager, reviewed the history of GDT (www.geographic.com) whose premier product is a nation wide street centerline data layer. The Community Update program is a public/private effort to expand the development of that information. GDT builds, maintains, and distributes key foundation and framework themes of the National Spatial Database Infrastructure (NSDI).
The Community Update program enhances local systems for data management.
It does not take over the responsibility from state or local governments of maintaining data layers but rather supports local efforts. Mapping agencies can submit edits in three ways: Conflation, Offline Editing, or ArcIMS. The Community Update program stores data using ESRI's Spatial Database Engine. The data download system manages data extent, data layers, data format, and data projection.
In building a transportation framework layer, the first step would be to synchronize GDT and local data sets (conflation). Coordination between state and local jurisdiction would ensure data sets were not duplicated. For local jurisdictions, participation does not depend on statewide "buy in". Data is obtained through various sources including the USGS, existing data in the core database, census bureau, and US postal service. This data is loaded into the Community Update database. This updated database is online and available for participating agencies.
The Community Update web site is available at www.communityupdate.com.
Transportation Framework Charter - Ron Cihon, WSDOT
Ron stated that the proposed charter is complete and a draft version is available on the web site http://framework.dnr.state.wa.us/transportation/index.html . The content of the charter lists the approaches for building partners, identifying business needs, identifying technologies, and implementing the pilot. It also defines the scope and resolution of the pilot and also describes deliverables in terms of the data model, arrangements for access and partnership agreements. Ron asked members to review the charter and send comments back to him. Next steps include assembling a technical team in addition to the project team and then developing a finalized charter.
Salmon Recovery Data Coordination - Jeff Holm
Jeff reviewed the number of activities related to salmon recovery. There is effort underway with regards to the Governor's Salmon Recovery Office and the Joint Natural Resource Cabinet to create a salmon recovery scorecard. This scorecard will essentially serve as management reporting structure on how the state is doing in salmon recovery efforts. While nothing has been published yet, drafts of the scorecard content are being circulated. The scorecard is a framework for establishing the major objectives surrounding salmon recovery and also a means measuring achievements or indicators of the objectives. Eighteen objectives and approximately thirty-eight indicators have been identified. While most of the objectives are related to science based items, one set of objectives is related to achievements with data. This effort in establishing these indicators and how they will be measured will provide opportunities in the future to find ways to coordinate data collection efforts as they related to salmon recovery and larger issues.
Gene Thorley updated members on The Pacific Salmon Information Network (PSIN) that was started several months ago with the objectives of better coordination of the federal science effort. Results of meetings have been the current inventory, a set of principles, and a prototype of a salmon atlas CD. Members of the PSIN will be meeting in the near future to discuss and seek input on future directions and emphasis.
GIS Leadership Workgroup - Larry Sugarbaker
Larry reported on a recent legislative hearing on GIS in Washington. Larry was asked to speak on the supplemental budget proposal sponsored by the Inter Agency for Outdoor Recreation. While the proposal did not make the budget cut off for the current legislative session; there is a considerable amount interest in the proposal. Several State Representatives at the briefing were very interested in coordination efforts surrounding the Cadastral Framework project. Larry took the opportunity to present the strategic plan that lays the foundation for planning activities.
One of the four objectives in the strategic plan is GIS leadership in Washington and to accomplish that objective a leadership team has been formed. The team has identified three areas of interest including council leadership whose goal is provide the leadership to move state activities forward in a coordinated effort. Other areas of interest were how to leverage critical business issues in a way that focuses attention and funds toward more coordinated activities. Larry noted that the challenge was staying responsive to changing business environments in a way that maintains continuity in information sharing efforts. Lastly, the Leadership Committee is looking for ways to initiate activities in local governments that do not have sufficient funding to start GIS programs. Larry stated that perhaps by encouraging the development of regional service centers those in turn would collectively generate resources to establish a core GIS activity. The concern of the leadership team is how to get everyone involved in GIS, not just better the efforts of those already involved. Larry asked for ideas and feedback regarding leadership from the membership in order to develop the legislative agenda for the next session.
Nominating Committee for Chair – Jeff Holm
Jeff Holm updated the membership on recent activities of the Nominations Committee. The primary goal is to compile a quality selection of candidates for the Chair election in May. Objectives of that goal include finding willing and able candidates and finding good representation from organizational types and geographic locations. Milestones include:
Voting memberships are determined by the individual organization's level of funding.
WGA Cadastral Workshop - Carrie Wolfe, Greg Tudor
The Western Governor's Association (WGA) has organized and sponsored a Cadastral Data and Policy Forum that will be held March 20-22 in Salt Lake City. The association has asked for ten delegates from each of the eighteen western states representing state, county, tribal and federal organizations. WGA asked WAGIC to provide a list of key people working in the Cadastral arena in Washington that would be interested in serving as a delegate. Nine delegates have confirmed their attendance. The Forum will include presentations on exemplary Cadastral data development activities, discussions on implementation strategies to build a standard of integration for all levels of Cadastral data, and policy recommendations.
Closing Site Roundtable - Larry Sugarbaker
Larry asked for comments and announcements from the sites noting the increased participation at the meetings. Larry encouraged members to invite peers and others to enjoy the quality level of presentations and discussions.
Gene Thorley told members of a new opportunity that is actually a continuation of a program begun last year called the Community Federal Information Partnership. This program is of particular interest to the state as a majority of the program funds go out in grants to foster geo-spatial use in real life issues in geographies. Gene encouraged those interested to ask Congress to fund the program.
Meeting Adjourned: 12:00 p.m.
Next meeting - February 17th, 1999 at 10:00 a.m.

Today we'd like you to meet Sylvestermouse. She's our I'm the "Cooking for the Holidays" Contributor on Squidoo.
Tell us a little bit about your niche topic.
At first glance, one would think the title "Cooking for the Holidays" would be rather self explanatory. However, there is more to cooking for the holidays then simply pulling out pans and slapping together one meal.
In many homes, mine included, it requires days of cooking, planning, scheduling, shopping, and somehow resting to be prepared for the holidays.
My dream with this niche would be to not only share recipes, but to also share the ways we prepare to serve multiple meals, the time saving tips, as well as the sanity saving tips, that we all need when cooking for the holidays.
There is not greater teacher than experience!
Tell us about the moment you fell in love with your topic. Was it an immediate thing or did it happen over time?
I believe I have always loved cooking for the holidays, mostly because I associate it with family time. My family is spread out across the US and we are rarely altogether at the same time.
About the only time my siblings get time off from work, is during the holidays. Therefore, they try to come home during that time even if just for a brief visit.
My home as become the main "home" meeting place for the holidays, simply because I am the only one of my siblings that still lives close to our parents.
How could I not love Cooking for the Holidays when I am surrounded by the people I love most in this world.
Who had the most influence in your life?
Both my mother and my grandmother share in being the most influential in my life. I thank God every day for the blessing of having these two women in my life.
My mother was my daily instructor, and she still is. Even now, I call her when I need suggestions, reminders or advice.
One of my favorite days of the year, is the day before Thanksgiving. We get together in my kitchen and work side by side until the cooking is done and set aside for Thanksgiving day.
I mentioned my grandmother in the opening statement because I spent a great deal of time with my grandmother when I was growing up. Because she lived out of town, I was allowed to spend weeks at a time with her all by myself. A rarity when you have 5 siblings. She shared those days with me as if I was her only thought, her only concern. We picked vegetables straight from her garden and harvested pecans from her pecan trees, we canned and cooked and loved every minute of it. I had no idea she was teaching me so much about cooking and life by just simply sharing her time and normal activities with me.

Obama Admits Guantanamo Won't Close by January Deadline
Posted Nov 18, 2009 7:10 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
President Obama has acknowledged in an interview that the Guantanamo Bay detention facility won't close by a January deadline.
Obama told Fox News that closing Guantanamo was "just technically hard," the Washington Post reports. He says he's not disappointed that he will miss the deadline he set after becoming president, and the prison will eventually close.
Obama didn't set a new deadline, however.
"We are on a path and a process where I would anticipate that Guantanamo will be closed next year," Obama said. "I'm not going to set an exact date because a lot of this is also going to depend on cooperation from Congress."
