Jonah Goldberg Slams 'Niggling Pedant' Piers Morgan After Monday's Interview
After CNN's Piers Morgan belittled conservative columnist Jonah Goldberg for upwards of 11 minutes on Monday night, Goldberg fired back Tuesday on his National Review blog and called it a "shameful spectacle." He accused Morgan of being a partisan hack while claiming journalistic impartiality.
"Liberal journalists don't think they have any biases, which makes it very hard for them to compensate for them," Goldberg wrote on Tuesday. He added that Morgan all the while was "making the case for Obama from what he thinks is the centrist position." [Video below the break. Audio here.]
The interview began innocently, as Morgan asked about Goldberg's newest book "The Tyranny of Cliches." But he immediately switched gears and, in Goldberg's words, "cross-examined" him over the conservative backlash against President Obama's remark that Mitt Romney would not have given the order to kill bin Laden.
Morgan was a fierce defender of the President and a critic of the Republicans, all while claiming to be a "devil's advocate." Goldberg later ranted that Morgan was "carrying water for the Democrats."
"Are we really going to do this sort of high school debating tactic crap?" Goldberg exclaimed at one point in the interview, to which Morgan replied in the affirmative.
Towards the end of the interview, Morgan lauded the President as "quite cool." He decried the Republican line of "Obama's too cool" concerning his recent appearance on Jimmy Fallon, interview with Rolling Stone, and jokes made at the White House correspondents dinner.
A partial transcript of the interview, which aired on April 30 on Piers Morgan Tonight at 9:10 p.m. EDT, is as follows:
PIERS MORGAN: If Barack Obama had been on the record two or three years ago, saying – and Mitt Romney was the president at the time – and had said I do not believe it is worth spending this kind of money, going after one guy, are you telling me with a straight face, again, that Mitt Romney wouldn't have capitalized on that if he had then taken out Osama bin Laden? He wouldn't have reminded his number one challenger that he said he wouldn't have spent the money?
JONAH GOLDBERG, author: Well, first of all, your characterization of what Mitt Romney said, I think, is off.
MORGAN: No, it's not.
GOLDBERG: Of course it is.
MORGAN: No, it's not.
GOLDBERG: Mitt Romney was talking about fighting the war on terror in the context of fighting one – coming after one man. He never said if I have the opportunity, you know, he wasn't spending all of this money. That's not what Barack Obama did when he got Osama bin Laden. It was a pretty cheap operation. No problem with that, I support it.
MORGAN: How much does it cost?
GOLDBERG: It didn't cost --
MORGAN: What's your idea of cheap?
GOLDBERG: Are we really going to do this sort of high school debating tactic crap?
MORGAN: Yes. I'm curious what you think of what cheap means.
GOLDBERG: I would put it at – I don't know, $50 million, $40 million.
MORGAN: Wow. And that's cheap in the Republican world?
GOLDBERG: That's cheap in comparison to what the cost of the War on Terror is.
MORGAN: No wonder the country got into the mess it did.
GOLDBERG: I suppose that that's supposed to be a really telling point. I'm not quite sure how it is.
MORGAN: I'm just saying the Republican administration obviously led to a huge financial collapse. You wouldn't dispute that.
GOLDBERG: I would and I would also say Barack Obama has spent much, much, much, much more money than the Republicans.
MORGAN: Would you dispute that after eight years of Republican administration the country went into a huge economic collapse?
GOLDBERG: No, but that's a timeline question.
GOLDBERG: It came afterwards, yes.
MORGAN: Do you thin – given we're talking about ideology, as you put it.
GOLDBERG: Uh-huh.
MORGAN: Do you think the ideology that $50 million is cheap? I don't know what it cost, the mission, actually, but $50 million is cheap is part of the problem here?
GOLDBERG: I think the debate tactic of getting – of sort of standing on a soap box and waxing poetic about how much I think this operation cost is cheap. That said –
MORGAN: But you're criticizing the cliched ideology of the liberals here, and I'm playing devil's advocate. I'm not saying you're wrong. But I'm saying when it comes to cheap ideology, chucking out statements like $50 million is cheap.
GOLDBERG: Well, I didn't chuck it out. You pried it out of me. You begged me for an answer.
MORGAN: That's good journalism, isn't it?
GOLDBERG: Maybe, you know –
MORGAN: Isn't that the point of an interview about this kind of issue?
GOLDBERG: No, but you're cross-examining me. You're not interviewing me.
MORGAN: What do you think of the whole debate about Obama's too cool? Republicans throwing this back at him, saying you can't be on entertainment shows, doing the slow jam with Jimmy Fallon. You can't be on the cover of "Rolling Stone" magazine if you're to be taken seriously. This is the wrong kind of thing. I mean, are they really expecting us to believe that if Mitt Romney was president, he wouldn't do stuff like this occasionally?
GOLDBERG: Oh I think he would do stuff – I don't think he'd be on "Rolling Stone," because I think "Rolling Stone" would burst into flames before that happened. But –
MORGAN: Is it a legitimate line of attack?
GOLDBERG: I don't think that's quite the line of attack. I think he certainly has every right to do it. I don't think any – I don't know of anybody who says he can't do it. But at the same time, I do think that some of that act is wearing thin. You can only be cool for so long in American life, and I think in life in general.
MORGAN: But I watched him at the White House Correspondents Dinner. I was there. And he had a ready wit, charm, delivery, great comic timing. You couldn't dispute it. Everybody was falling about laughing. He got more laughs than Jimmy Kimmel did. You can't dispute the guy is quite cool.
And why would Americans not like to have a cool president? Doesn't it resonate quite well around the world to have a guy that can sing like Al Green, that can crack jokes like the best comedians? I mean, isn't this good for America?

MORGAN: Would you dispute that after eight years of Republican administration the country went into a huge economic collapse?
GOLDBERG: No, but that's a timeline question
Indeed, it is a timeline question.
There's no doubt who created (regulated the ground rules) the housing bubble. That was Clinton and Andrew Cuomo. There's no doubt that Obama is on record in supporting what they did (and I'd bet that Al Gore did, as well).
There's no doubt that President Bush didn't manage to reign in the housing bubble, which he inherited, before it led to great damage. And, there is no doubt that under Bush, we spent too much money - but that did not cause the crisis, in any shape or form - it simply added to the long term debt issue (eventual crisis, if you will).
There's no doubt that if Bush would have been president during the late 90's, that we would have had the exact same dot.com bubble, as not a soul would venture to suggest that Clinton did anything other than get out of the way of a charging ship. And then, there's no doubt that the dot.com bubble would have collapsed during that late '90's imaginary Bush era, or, perhaps waited a tiny bit longer and then collapsed under an imaginary Gore Administration.
And if we'd had that imaginary Gore era following the dot.com bubble, there's no doubt (unless he'd allowed us to get completely destroyed) that he'd not interfered with the continuation of the housing bubble created by Clinton/Cuomo - until it eventually collapsed on his watch leading to the greatest economic crisis of my lifetime.
Then again, what if the housing bubble had managed to last only one year longer? Ah - it would have collapsed on Obama's watch - and then he would have inherited his own mess.
See - it's only a timeline question.

HOUSTON (AP) - Authorities say the shooting at a Texas community college was the result of an altercation between two people, and at least one was a student.
The shooting happened before 1 p.m. on Jan. 22, 2013, at the Lone Star College System campus about 20 miles north of downtown Houston.
Aerial footage from local television stations shows emergency personnel attending to some people on stretchers and at least one being taken into an ambulance. Others can be seen running from a building led by officers.
The Harris County Sheriff's Office says it has no immediate details. Texas college on lockdown amid reports of a gunman on campus:
At least three people, including a suspect, have been shot at Lone Star Community in North Harris County, according to Precinct 4 deputy constables.
Dozens of law enforcement officers are searching for a second suspect on the loose. They are searching a wooded area north of the campus.
KHOU 11 News stringer Lloyd Overcash saw one male being brought out of the library on a stretcher. He was reportedly handcuffed to the stretcher, according to witnesses.
At least one woman was being treated by EMS crews outside the library when Air 11 flew over.
Other crews were entering the library with stretchers.
Just before 1 p.m. several people were evacuated from the library and other areas of campus.
The shooting happened around 12:30 p.m. at the campus in the 2700 block of W.W. Thorne Drive, near Bush Intercontinental Airport.
The only thing campus officials could confirm is that the school is on lockdown.
Several Aldine ISD schools are also on lockdown while the search for the suspect continues. They are Nimitz High School, Nimitz 9th Grade Campus, Parker Intermediate and Dunn Clifford Elementary.

O'Reilly Velocity: Building Self-Adaptive Autonomous Infrastructure [Video]
Infrastructure demand can be turbulent and difficult to predict. As data grows both in scale and complexity, web applications increasingly become spread across heterogeneous compute and storage environments. Many great companies are managing their infrastructure using ad-hoc monitoring and autoscaling technologies that are often monolithic in nature and built by a team that lacks specialization in scale or flexibility. For these companies, what results is unpredictable performance and reduced visibility of resource utilization—two things that are bad for business.

Yeah I've seen that.
oh well, i enjoy it. i can just get moody sometimes. like you seem to be this morning.
I had always wondered why when we're children, adults would act as if we were ignorant, immature, and blind to what goes on. We all wanted to know why we were viewed as dumb, deaf and blind. Eventually as we all grow up, we forget about the knowledge we craved for at one time, until it's to late. Looking down at the kids who we once were, and seeing them with the same questions we once had. Dumb, deaf, and blind, because we all wanted to grow up.
Fuck being an adult.
Fuck You
its how you do it, nothings wrong with being an adult. but if you settle for working a 9-5 to go home and watch TV, eat, sleep an wake up to the same thing. then you lost your way.
nothings wrong with a 9-5. its needed. but ya gotta keep your soul in check. keep your hobbies strong an shit. people just lose ambition to live freely and get into a work zone until they die. settle on the stupid small things. like coffee in the morning.
ill put a bullet in my face if i start feeling content over a coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. rather than tryin to travel around an see an paint shit etc etc.
^word up to that.
so i'm souped. i been power training my ass off over the past couple weeks, eating mad, trying to get some weight packed on. i've never been above 150 before ever in my life. i weighed in today at a solid 162. hell yeah. my boy that got me into fighting is tryna tell me i'm getting fat haha. he's just pissed cause i almost knocked him the fuck out today with a heavy straight left. i weigh like 30 pounds more than that kid now and my fists are getting heavy. time to start beasting on fools southpaw status.
That's just a thought I had last night when I started thinking about my life. I party, I have fun and whatever, but I don't have my life. And it seems the only way to get my life is to become what my parents have, and work all day, come home and eat, drink, tv, sleep, wake up, and do it all over again. It's "the good life", but I prefer the little things like, down a 6 pack before noon, and then maintaining a steady drunk all day, playing frisbee, and fuck all. Working just helps me pay for this shit, but it's not helping my soul.
I mean, I have an awesome job, where I just sit around and sell frozen yogurt all day, hell, I'm at work right now, but I don't want to move on to what you'd call, a legitimate job.

"The standard weight paper was nice and heavy and the colors were vivid. The regular delivery arrived before the expected date I am reordering more today! Will definately use tiny prints for my son's engagement party invitations!"
"Excellent quality, sturdy card and envelope. Loved the design and quality of the pictures printed . Came a couple days before expected. Received many complements!"
"Beautiful card, I loved the colors and the back as well. The design was great and our pictures fit great. The only thing I would change would be to have a little more flexibility for writing even a one-line message instead of just "From/Love" and our names. Otherwise great card!"
"As always…….terrific customer service! We received our cards earlier than expected, too. The card quality is great. We always get lots of compliments on our Tiny Prints cards, and this year was no exception. We chose this particular card, because even though we had five photos, there was room on the card for all of them without the photos being too small."

You can't always get what you want.
Former multiple promotion champion Jake Shields recently cast his line, fishing for a fight against B.J. Penn for his first fight inside the Octagon since his unanimous decision defeat against Georges St. Pierre this past April.
Unfortunately, that plan hit a snag and he will not be going head on against "The Prodigy."
Instead, he's reeled in a "Juggernaut," as UFC.com brings word that Shields will take on Jake Ellenberger later this year.
The best part? It's going down on Sept. 17 in New Orleans as the main event of UFC Fight Night 25: "Battle on the Bayou," the heavily promoted Bud Light sponsored event that will air free on Spike TV.
One thing to note here is the UFC report states this will be a three-round fight despite it being the main event. The world's largest fight promotion recently announced it would be moving to five-round non-title main events but that will not start with this card.
This will mark the first time Shields will enter a fight coming off a loss since Nov. 2005 and he's drawn one hell of a test in his return fight.
Rick Story has garnered a reputation as the man to call if you need a short notice replacement for a tough fight; however, Jake Ellenberger has been that guy for a while now.
Despite his propensity for taking difficult tests whenever necessary, the collegiate champion wrestler has amassed an impressive 4-1 record in the UFC, with his only defeat coming in his debut.
Even that loss was an extremely close split decision defeat to Carlos Condit, who is currently knocking on the door to a title shot of his own.
A win over former championship challenger Jake Shields would go a long way in putting Ellenberger over the top. But can he do it?
Stay tuned.
UFC Fight Night 25, a Bud Light sponsored event known as "Battle on the Bayou," is set to go down on Sept. 17 in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The event will be headlined by Shields vs. Ellenberger but will also feature Jonathan Brookins first appearance since winning The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 13 when he takes on Erik Koch in a featherweight throwdown.
In addition, Court McGee vs. Dongi Yang and Alan Belcher vs. Jason MacDonald will take place on the card.
As usual, keep it locked right here at MMAmania.com for more on this still-developing fight card.

Guardian Camera Club: Peter Hodge on utilities photography
Interpreting a commission and seeing the broad range of potential possibilities it presents is all part of the challenge. The composition of 'Water 1' is good but too much detail is lost in the highlights. 'Water 2' is altogether more interesting; the abstraction makes for a more challenging image. The colors and shapes of 'Water 3' are beautiful, only the elements at the top left hand corner detract from the simplicity of this photo. The industrial signage and pipe work in 'Water 4' is intriguing. The highlights could be darkened to make it seem even more oppressive. The diagonals of 'Water 5' contrast well with the foliage but using a longer lens and less depth of field would improve things graphically. 'Water 6' has a strange quality of light which suits the subject well! This is a well thought out set of images that has certainly brought something new to the table

Much was made about Carlos Condit's decision to wait and sit out for Georges St. Pierre to return to action in order to unify the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) welterweight titles instead of taking another bout in the interim, therefore holding the entire 170-pound division hostage.
It was probably for the best, really, seeing as how getting the opportunity to fight one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world is probably a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Just ask Jon Fitch.
At yesterday's UFC 154 press conference, Condit revealed he probably never had much of a choice, saying that matchmakers over at Zuffa never offered him another bought in the meantime, stating they wanted him to fight "Rush" all along.
"Well, first of all, the UFC never offered me or my management any other fight. No other opportunity was brought up. From the beginning, they made it clear they wanted me to fight Georges. And, also, personally, Georges is the guy I wanted to fight, looked up to in the sport, and you know, basically wanted that status for a very long time. Georges is the best in the world and I want to be the best in the world so I have to beat Georges."
On today's fan chat with ESPN SportsNation, UFC President Dana White says it was up to "The Natural Born Killer." He asked, Condit waited.
He said, he said.
Regardless of how it unfolded, it seems the Albuquerque native probably wouldn't have taken a fight either way, seeing as how he wanted to fight GSP all along, anyway. Like longtime professional wrestler Ric Flair says, "To be the man, you gotta beat the man."
Who's da man on Saturday night (Nov. 17, 2012) in Montreal?

The Royal Gorge Fire is one of four active wildfires blazing in Colorado. It has destroyed 3,800 acres and several structures. (As Twitchy told you earlier tonight, the Black Forest Fire is raging near Colorado Springs and 2,500 homes have been evacuated.)

|Nesiritide Therapy for the Preservation of Left Ventricular Function Post Anterior Myocardial Infarction
|Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of intravenous human beta natriuretic peptide (BNP, Nesiritide) as compared to placebo to prevent adverse post acute myocardial infarction left ventricular remodeling.
|Detailed Description
Post acute myocardial infarction (AMI) left ventricular (LV) remodeling begins within hours of the acute event with permanent consequences. Previous studies have demonstrated that LV remodeling is one of the major determinants of long-term survival post AMI. Recent studies have reported that the cardiac natriuretic peptides, ANP and BNP have direct anti-fibrotic and anti-proliferative effects on the myocardium. More importantly, it has been reported that in the acute phase of AMI, the secretion of the cardiac natriuretic peptides may be insufficient relative to the chronic phase. Therefore, augmentation of the cardiac natriuretic peptide system, such as by exogenous administration of exogenous peptide may prevent post AMI LV remodeling because of the cardioprotective effects. The objective of this study is to to determine the efficacy of IV human BNP (Nesiritide) as compared to placebo to prevent adverse post AMI LV remodeling. This is a randomized double blinded placebo controlled study to determine efficacy of 72 hours of IV BNP at 0.006µg/Kg/min as compared to placebo in patients with anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction and successful revascularization. The study population will include 60 patients admitted to the CCU with a first anterior AMI and successful reperfusion therapy (TIMI grade 3 flow) within 24 hours of onset of chest pain documented by coronary angiography.

Sanibel and Captiva are sometimes called "the Shell Islands," not because of the abundance of shells on the beach, but because the islands themselves are made out of shells. Because of the islands' unique east-west geography, they tend to scoop up shells brought up by the Caribbean and other southern seas. The best selections can be found every March at the annual Sanibel Shell Fair & Show.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Lubbock County Libertarian Candidate Nathan Lusk released court records to local news media Thursday afternoon and accused independent candidate John Miller of not being fit to serve as Lubbock County judge.
The records, dated on July 12th of this year, show that Miller was found in contempt of court.
In addition to being a candidate for County Judge, Miller is C.E.O. of WesTex Document Inc. His company hired an employee from an Amarillo document shredding company in violation of a non-compete agreement. In 2009 it seemed the issue between the two document shredding companies had been settled by a court order in Potter County.
But court records say Miller and WesTex "knowingly, materially, and systematically" caused the employee to violate the agreement. It was for that reason that Miller was then found to be in contempt of court.
Miller's penalty was that he would be made to pay additional damages to the Amarillo company if he violated the Potter County restraining order again.
"It was a corporate settlement," Miller told KCBD NewsChannel 11 by phone. "That's all I'm going to say."
Miller also said it was not his intent to be disrespectful or show any contempt of court. Instead, he says, "I was under advice of legal counsel."
Both Lusk and Miller face heavily favored incumbent Judge Tom Head.

We're here live at the Cobb County Commission meeting. It's a light agenda, but commissioners are expected to approve a contract to build the new Austell Senior Center. Commissioners got a look earlier today at a master plan for Northeast Cobb's Mabry Park and are expected to approve it tonight.
7 p.m. There is a crowd here from the Friends of Mabry Park. They all have on blue shirts that say "Imagine" on the front and "...a place...." on the back with the group's website.
7:07 The pledge and prayer are out of the way.
Commissioners JoAnn Birrell and Bob Ott recognize Walton High School's men's lacrosse team, men's soccer team and women's tennis team, all of whom won state championships this spring.
7:21 May 2011 is proclaimed Asthma Awareness Month.
A proclamation is presented to the Lockheed Martin Leadership Association designating June 5 through 11 as Management Week in Cobb County.
7:23 A public hearing opens on the consideration of the Johnson Ferry Road Urban Design Plan. Many meetings have been held with businesses and residents about how to improve this area in East Cobb.
7:27 Staff has created a design with four hub areas along the road. Some will be more urban in nature and others more residential.
7:36 A speaker from the East Cobb Civic Association is excited that this is before you now. Community has worked long and hard on this plan.
A new speaker is an original member of steering committee. She thanks Commissioner Bob Ott. "It is critical that we have an urban design for this area."
Larry Savage says he doesn't think the government should go out and determine how a community should look. He says that the community involvement has been poor and that the meetings weren't advertised very well.
7:43 Ott says this is the first step in a process, as a guide for development. The design has been community-driven. Many changes have been made to address any concerns.
The board accepts the design plan unanimously.
7:51 It's public comment time.
A speaker thanks police for their help in a recent robbery at his house.
A new speaker is opposed to proposed cuts in CCT routes. She says her housekeeper has no other way to get to her house.
Another speaker rides the 65 bus and says she has no other way to get to work.
8:15 The consent agenda, which includes approval of the master plan for Mabry Park, passes.
8:17 Several transportation items are approved, including improvements to Bells Ferry Road, Jiles Road and Barrett Parkway.
8:19 Commissioners approve a design/build contract with Choate Construction for the Austell Senior Center. The old building was flooded in 2009.
8:25 And we are adjourned.

LHJ Presents Peace Unveiled and a Special Q&A With Producer Abigail Disney
September 27, 2011 at 2:18 pm , by Sonia Harmon
What if you looked at war as through the eyes of women? That's the question at the heart of the new five-part PBS series, Women, War & Peace, which focuses on the perspectives of women living in conflict zones around the world. "We have this image of a male hero striking out into war," says Abigail Disney, an executive producer. "And littering the sidelines, if they're visible at all, are these women who don't really matter. But there are no sidelines. Women very much do matter. We need to restore women to a story they've never been a part of."
The series begins airing Tuesday, October 11th. But this Thursday at 7:30 EST, LHJ will present an exclusive online sneak preview of Peace Unveiled, the third installment in the series, which follows three women in Afghanistan who are fighting for the right to be heard in their country's political arena. (To see the preview log on to livestream.com/independent lens.) Afterward, stick around for a live online panel discussion with Disney and director Gini Reticker, where you can talk with other viewers about the film and submit questions for the filmmakers.
In the meantime, check out our interview with Disney (yes, that same Disney—Walt Disney was her great-uncle) about the series and what you can do to help.
How difficult was this series to film?
There were incredible difficulties in getting footage and getting the women to feel safe enough to talk to us because they were being threatened every day. Some of them were getting death threats in text messages on their cell phones while we were interviewing them. So it was hard, but we had to find women who were willing to step up and take a chance being on camera.
What are you hoping to accomplish with these films?
To give people a fuller, more nuanced picture of what it is when we go to war. Women are being targeted more than they've ever been targeted specifically because they're women. But there's also this other question about peace. What if you bring the women to the peace talks? What if you ask them what they need in post-conflict? We have an image of these Afghan women lumped under burqas but these are feisty, brilliant, articulate, strategic women who are really making themselves count.
How do you work on these tough topics and stay optimistic?
I am a frighteningly happy person! People always ask me, "Why are you so happy? You do all this grim work, and you constantly look at war and all these terrible things." But I believe that if you go ahead and look at what's hard to look at and stay there with it, you'll find all the good stuff that you haven't been seeing. The good news is the people that you encounter who are doing these incredible things. I feel like I can do anything knowing that these women are out there living their lives. It's a gift to give other people access to that information.
How can people watching Peace Unveiled become involved with women's rights issues?
There's a ton of work to be done. Some of it is just as simple as these organizations—these little, crafty, smart, strategic, entrepreneurial organizations—that need money and support from people like us. For instance, the Global Fund for Women and UN Women raise money for those scrappy, entrepreneurial organizations, so that's one thing. But I also really believe in just bearing witness to what they're going through and insisting to our leaders that this should matter to them. We can't compromise these women and as citizens, we really need to figure out what our duties are in Afghanistan.
How has being part of the Disney family name affected you and your ambitions? Did you always want to be a filmmaker?
I stayed away from that business in part because I felt like I had to make my own mark on the world and it couldn't be because I was somebody's niece. But when I went to Liberia for the first time in 2006 and I heard the amazing story of Pray the Devil Back to Hell; that's when I decided I really had to do this work. I was in this unique place where I heard these incredible women's stories and I could, if I chose to marshal all my resources, make the world know it. If I didn't do it, who else was going to do it?

A marriage certificate usually contains who married who, when they were married, where they were married, who married them, and who was there.
It is generally the responsibility of the officiant of your wedding ceremony to make sure that your signed marriage license is delivered to the recorder's office. Since the recorder's office has to process the filing and recording of the marriage license, you usually have to wait several weeks before receiving your marriage certificate.
In some locales, once a marriage license is signed and filed with the county clerk, the license becomes the marriage certificate. Generally, in order to receive an additional copy of a marriage certificate, you need to send your request along with the required fee to the County Clerk/Recorder's Office of the county where the marriage took place.
In order to be acceptable as a legal document, a Certified Marriage Certificate needs to show the state seal or be imprinted with a seal/stamp. Keepsake marriage certificates are not legal documents.

Colorado Shooting Suspect Appears in Court Looking Dazed
Posted Jul 23, 2012 11:38 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Colorado mass shooting suspect James Holmes appeared in court for the first time today, sporting bright orange-red colored hair.
Fox News says Holmes "looked alternately confused and tired" as the judge spoke, while the Denver Post says his face changed from "blank stare to wide-eyed and dazed." CBS News also has a story that includes information from the Associated Press. Holmes was in court for an advisement held to inform him he is being held on murder charges.
Judge William Sylvester did not grant bond. Lawyer Tamara Brady of the state public defender's capital cases team sat next to Holmes. He is also represented by another lawyer form the same office, Daniel King.
Formal charges will be filed next Monday. Holmes is suspected of killing 12 people and wounding 58 others in Aurora, Colo., early Friday during a midnight showing of the new Batman movie. He reportedly told police he was the Joker.
Updated at 12:35 p.m. to clarify that Holmes is accused of killing 12 people and wounding 58 others.

Bradford homeless campaign appeals for voluntary help
8:00am Thursday 17th January 2013 in News By Dolores Cowburn, Bradford Chief Reporter
An emergency scheme to provide a warm bed for those sleeping rough as temperatures plunge below zero has been activated for 48 nights since it started in October – a increase of 14 nights since last year.
It takes place from October 1 to April 30 to stop rough sleepers dying on the streets. Hope Housing, a charity which along with 12 other voluntary and community organisations, and Bradford Council, offers the service.
Hope Housing said that a cold snap in November and the recent freezing spell, with temperatures dropping to minus 9C, had led to increased demand, with 20 people a night accessing their service.
In the year 2011-12, there were 34 nights when the provision was activated. Adam Clarke, the project co-ordinator at Hope Housing, said that the Council was leading the way by being open every night when the temperatures hit zero rather than three nights in a row before opening like neighbouring authorities.
He urged anyone who knows of someone sleeping in abandoned buildings to contact them.
"We open extra bed spaces by using communal spaces in hostels and organisations go above and beyond what they normally do as part of this provision," he said.
"We go above the national guidelines of opening after three nights at zero or below to opening every night in those circumstances to provide rough sleepers from dying in freezing conditions.
"This provision has been going for five years and if the rooms and hostels get full, the Council will pay for someone to go into a Bed and Breakfast.
"We were open for ten days over Christmas as a goodwill gesture and then for two weeks in November.
"Now it is seriously cold and we are giving people food parcels put together with the help of a dietician.
"If the temperature changes during the day the provision will still remain open. The temperature is due to drop to minus 9 this week and people are not going to sleep out in that. We want to make sure people don't stay out on the streets, we are there to prevent people dying."
Councillor Val Slater, Bradford Council's executive member for housing, planning and transport, said it was a welcome scheme.
The charity has been awarded £5,000 from the Government's Warm Homes scheme to help emergency sleepers access more long term accommodation.
Anyone needing help should e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

The issue with people sleeping rough in cold weather has gone on for so long is it not about time that more people got involved in looking around there own communities to see of different places were people can get a bed and warmth. What about the Hotels and b/breakfasts in Bradford I'm sure there could do more to offer accommodation for the needy at better costs or so many even FREE come everybody but your hands in your pockets and dig deep. And Government start looking at the Homeless as more and more people will be Homeless in the future.

Not so simple says...
The duty was passed onto a private company called Incommunities and Bradford advice team. I believe this is correct. The way Incommunities aka BCHT was setup is also rather dodgy and odd with the common sense but that's another story.
I've known people who worked for Bradford councils housing dept, it's benefit service, advice service and now the private company called Incommunities. I can say that most report what a poor service the homeless and poor get from these sources. The charities are over stretched. Many are left in hostels and refuges. Many are turned away by the system and are labelled transient population...people who slip the net are many and many cannot be helped as they do not meet the criteria. The choices based lettings system is a failure...trust me you need to speak to some of these ex staff. Staff who left as they just had enough of the incompetence of these so called service providers.
The charities cannot cope with the amount of rough sleepers and the problems associated with them.
Various charities are fighting over the same pot of funding and as a result deliver sub standard services.
Each year many millions are put aside from us tax payers to pay for the homeless duties of the council, why are the council wasting this money and asking volunteers to house the homeless.
City hall is empty at night, put em there. Let the councillors and the management take the homeless home....can't see that happening.

STAMFORD, Conn. (AP) - Since the Christmas Day fire at her Connecticut home last year that took the lives of her three daughters and her parents, Madonna Badger wonders why she survived.
Badger, a New York advertising executive until the 2011 fire in Stamford, made it through the funerals for her children and parents. Then she fell apart, she tells the Hearst Connecticut Media Group (http://bit.ly/UsPBvi ).
Her hair turned gray and fell out in clumps. She waved a fistful of pills in the air and threatened to swallow them.
Badger traveled to Little Rock, Ark., in February to live with a friend from their college days. She says the only condition was that she promised to not commit suicide.
Investigators determined the fire was accidental. Badger said love is the legacy her children left.

The cleanup has begun in some parts of Long Island while others continue to deal with flooding from heavy rain fall that began late Tuesday and intensified on Wednesday. Cars remain stranded after rain pounded the area. More than 13 inches of rain fell in Islip. The National Weather Service said the rain was the largest event on record for New York State in a 24-hour period.

Tifton -- In case of a catastrophe, Tift County wants to be ready. The Emergency Management Authority recently submitted the first round of budget requests they hope will point them in the right direction of making Tifton County EMA second to none.
These are the spaces used to house emergency response equipment that Tift county officials hope to filled soon. "We wanted to build an EMA here that is second to none that can handle any of these emergencies," says Buddy Byran chairman of the Tift County Commission.
EMA is the city and the county's first responders to catastrophic events that can threaten lives like tornado or chemical spills. Having the right equipment and people are critical. For city and county officials doing the best job meant bring it strongest forces together.
"What the two governments decided to do was combine the EMA under the sheriff's department,"says Bryan.
Now the county says it's preparing to pump more money into EMA. EMA will soon submit a budget to expand it current program, add more workers and equipment all while putting the county in a better position to lobby for federal dollars.
"If your going to apply for grants from the homeland security administration or other homeland security agencies you have to have the vehicles in place to apply,"says Bryan
Putting things in place now to make the first responders are better able to do the important job of the saving lives.
The head of the EMA says the department is collecting information how much it will need for the next fiscal year to make Tifton EMA ready for the future. The city and the county will split the departments expenses

Spring Break Service: An ACU Tradition
Our students seem to be always on the lookout for ways they can serve and bless others. This happens during the school year, but also over breaks as students live out the mission of ACU locally and globally.
Our university community offers many opportunities for students to serve outside the classroom through academic-sponsored mission experiences, through Body & Soul, the Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Club, World Wide Witness, and many other worthwhile groups and organizations. ACU's Spring Break Campaigns program has long been among those service options.
In 2011, we began looking for ways to create a new niche for this generation of students, one that presents them with options for Spring Break service that are affordable, that work around various staffing and resource challenges we face on campus, and that allows us to navigate the risk management issues we find ourselves coping with in this increasingly litigious era. We believe we've found not only a way around those challenges, but also a path forward that presents us with new opportunities for service and growth.
ACU's Center for Christian Service & Leadership is committed to student involvement in service and mission during Spring Break. We will launch an exciting opportunity in 2014 that connects students, staff and faculty with community partners as together we meet the needs of our Abilene neighbors and the larger world.

I have seen this on a few sites now, and while it's definitely interesting, I found my information on the Internet Adult Film Database (IAFD.com–NSFW) to be inaccurate. But before I get ahead of myself…
Jon Millward of JonMillward.com (SFW) describes himself as an "Ideas Detective".
"I choose interesting aspects of human life and investigate them, sometimes for months at a time, to present fresh insights into the way we act and think."
His post Deep Inside: A Study of 10,000 Porn Stars and Their Careers pulls from the data of thousands of porn stars because the information is so detailed.
For instance, IAFD lists stage names, height, weight, number of movies, movie titles, scenes descriptions, hair color, birth place, ethnicity, and in some cases, what kind of scenes they are available to do as a current work-for-hire performer. Simply pulling from this information, Jon has made some interesting discoveries.
When he asks a male friend what the average porn star looks like, his friend replied with a typical answer: blonde, big boobs. Jon's response?
"That's what everyone says. And in fact, it's wrong."
According to Jon's data results, the average porn star is brunette with 34B-cup breasts. All of the information is that kind of interesting.
Furthermore, Jon provides a narrative that asks questions beyond static information.
"Sometimes when I hear people railing against porn, declaring it as the downfall of society, a poison infecting masculine minds and demeaning female ones, I wonder what kind of porn they're talking about. To me, porn seems a lot like sport. I don't mean the sex in it looks like a sporting activity (maybe it sometimes does, but that's a separate point), but rather that there are as many types of sex in porn as there are forms of sport. Take synchronised swimming. This could be seen as lesbian porn, or 'solo scenes', in which women casually masturbate for your viewing pleasure. Next consider a vigorous game of badminton: this might be your standard boy-girl scene. Pretty vanilla stuff, with maybe a dose of anal sex thrown in if the match is really heated. How about a gory mixed martial arts fight? That would be comparable to a 10-man midget gangbang, maybe. They're all sports, all types of sexual activity, but they differ wildly in who's involved and what they're doing with, or to, each other.
So when I hear somebody claim that porn is 'degrading', I can't help but ask: which porn? Is an anal scene involving three men and one woman more or less degrading than a scene in which three women have sex with strap-ons? How about a solo scene in which a woman appears alone? And if they're equally degrading because they're all part of a the same industry, is homemade porn that couples sell on their own personal websites part of the same monster? Much like sport, or violence in films, or cruelty to animals, I don't think you can really drill down into the topic on an intellectually respectable level until you've strictly defined your terms."
Quirky, interesting and definitely funny when you see data blocks with numbers and then text that reads: 'Butts vs. boobs' – as measured by each word's appearance (inc. synonyms) in film titles. (lol)
Unfortunately, I commented on the article before I read it in its entirety. Upon seeing IAFD.com as the study, I checked my information under "Julie Meadows" and it appears some if it is incorrect.
[UPDATE: As of this posting my information has been corrected. Thanks to Jeff Vanzetti of IAFD.com for adding clarification in the comments below.]
It states my measurements are 36D-22-32. Now, he does mention that maybe some performers lie a bit about their info, but I've always been accurate.
From 1998 to the end of 1999 (pre-saline boobies), I was 34B-26-34. Post-saline boobies, 34C-26-34. And my height? IAFD has me at "5 feet, 3 inches". I am and always will be 5′ 6″ (until age makes my back arch, and then I'll just be 5′ 6″ at a curve).
Does this matter? Maybe not. I suppose it depends on how many performer's information is inaccurate based upon who entered it, where they retrieved their information, and at what point during the performer's career the information is reflected. The incremental differences may not alter the information enough to matter. At any rate, my comment merely stated some of my information as inaccurate, but is otherwise definitely interesting.
Also quoted is ex-gossip blogger, Luke Ford, who apparently has a line heavily used by anti-pornographers about porn stars entering and quitting the industry after one scene.
"Most girls who enter the porn industry do one video and quit. The experience is so painful, horrifying, embarrassing, humiliating for them that they never do it again."
So Jon crunches the numbers.
"Using my data set I knew I could find out. The actual number of single film quitters is between 10% and 30%. It's difficult to settle on an exact figure, because it differs depending on how you sample the women, but one thing's for sure: most women don't quit after one film—in fact, the majority (at least 53%) do three or more. So, to update the quote with the facts, do most women do three films and then quit because the experience is so humiliating and painful? Perhaps. Or maybe they just don't like it and stop."
Very interesting, indeed.

Five Utah turnovers, compared to none by Arizona State, gave the Sun Devils all the room they needed to continue their winning ways.

Gerell Robinson led all receivers with seven catches for 101 yards. Jamal Miles also caught a touchdown pass for the Sun Devils.

Smoking just one marijuana joint could have the same effect on your lungs as smoking up to five cigarettes at one time.
That's according to a study from New Zealand, where researchers compared lung function among cannabis smokers, tobacco smokers, and non-smokers.
The study pointed to a potentially greater danger among marijuana smokers because they tend to use unfiltered joints, inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer than cigarette smokers.

Cleaned up some of the links and bumped to the front. -- Rob
Last night during the eighth inning of the game between the Rays and Red Sox second baseman Will Rhymes (of the Rays) came up to bat against the hard-throwing left-handed reliever Franklin Morales. But it was what happened after the at-bat that is still being talked about by all of the major media outlets this morning. Video of the incident is here.
Morales, who throws his fastball anywhere from 93-96 on any given night, missed inside with one of those fastballs, ultimately drilling Rhymes in his right forearm, and square on the bone.
Rhymes felt the pain immediately, however he was able to shake it off long enough to trot down to first base. He would then wave off his manager and training staff, assuring them that he was okay to run. Only, Rhymes wasn't okay to run, or even walk.
After realizing that the adrenaline was wearing off, Rhymes "lost his legs" (not literally, or this would be a bigger story), as you can see in the video at the website above.
After collapsing into the arms of his first base coach, Rays trainers had to come back out to attend to Rhymes. In the process the only laughable moment from this serious incident came, as when asked what his name was, Rhymes replied, "I'm Batman."
Thankfully, after the game Rhymes was found to be okay. X-Rays were negative, and he was left with a badly bruised forearm; however, his sense of humor was unaffected, as seen in this post-game interview.
I always liked Rhymes in Detroit, and I think he got a bad shake, truth be told. I am glad he is okay, and I thought that many of us who remember Will (some having worshiped him) would like to know that he is okay as well.
