Approximately 22,000,000 cubic feet of stone will need to be quarried from the surrounding area to build the wind farm, used both in the construction of access roads and hard-standing at the base of the turbines, and also to build the heavy platforms required to support the turbines.And that's not counting what Nessie would think...
The figure is taken from SSE's own calculations. In 2012, when 83 turbines were planned – roughly 20 percent more than is currently being considered, the company stated that 28 million cubic feet would be required.
But the John Muir Trust points out that even the revised figure would consist of nearly enough stone to build nine Berlin Walls. The Trust calculated that the wall, at 69 miles long, 13 feet high and six inches thick, used about 2 million cubic feet in its construction. If the stone which will go into the Stronelairg wind farm were used to construct an identical wall, it would be 600 miles long.
"Most people will be staggered to discover the sheer scale of the quarrying involved in building a mega-wind farm on the scale of Stronelairg," said Brooks.
And the detrimental environmental impacts don't stop there. "All of this disruption will take place on a site which consists of more than 70% wet blanket peatland — Scotland's miniature version of the rainforest — which locks in 20 times as much carbon per acre as the average woodland. A serious strategy to cut greenhouse gases would include protection of Scotland's natural carbon storehouses," Brooks added.

Wind power and Loch Ness don't mix:
I'm Only An Executive Order
How a President gets to become a King:
Hagel Out
Chuck Hagel is stepping down:
The officials described Mr. Obama's decision to remove Mr. Hagel, 68, as a recognition that the threat from the Islamic State would require a different kind of skills than those that Mr. Hagel was brought on to employ. A Republican with military experience who was skeptical about the Iraq war, Mr. Hagel came in to manage the Afghanistan combat withdrawal and the shrinking Pentagon budget in the era of budget sequestration.Wanted: One Secretary of Defense. Experience helpful but not necessary...
But now "the next couple of years will demand a different kind of focus," one administration official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity. He insisted that Mr. Hagel was not fired, saying that the defense secretary initiated discussions about his future two weeks ago with the president, and that the two men mutually agreed that it was time for him to leave.
But Mr. Hagel's aides had maintained in recent weeks that he expected to serve the full four years as defense secretary. His removal appears to be an effort by the White House to show that it is sensitive to critics who have pointed to stumbles in the government's early response to several national security issues, including the Ebola crisis and the threat posed by the Islamic State.
Even before the announcement of Mr. Hagel's removal, Obama officials were speculating on his possible replacement. At the top of the list are Michèle A. Flournoy, a former under secretary of defense; Senator Jack Reed, Democrat of Rhode Island and a former officer with the Army's 82nd Airborne; and Ashton B. Carter, a former deputy secretary of defense.

The Non-Renewable Future
The future isn't fixed on renewables:
Whenever somebody with a decent grasp of maths and physics looks into the idea of a fully renewables-powered civilised future for the human race with a reasonably open mind, they normally come to the conclusion that it simply isn't feasible. Merely generating the relatively small proportion of our energy that we consume today in the form of electricity is already an insuperably difficult task for renewables: generating huge amounts more on top to carry out the tasks we do today using fossil-fuelled heat isn't even vaguely plausible.All of that energy has to come from somewhere...
Even if one were to electrify all of transport, industry, heating and so on, so much renewable generation and balancing/storage equipment would be needed to power it that astronomical new requirements for steel, concrete, copper, glass, carbon fibre, neodymium, shipping and haulage etc etc would appear. All these things are made using mammoth amounts of energy: far from achieving massive energy savings, which most plans for a renewables future rely on implicitly, we would wind up needing far more energy, which would mean even more vast renewables farms - and even more materials and energy to make and maintain them and so on.
Social Media Goes To Court
Is it free speech, or something more?
The issue is whether Elonis should be prosecuted for what he says was simply blowing off steam — "therapeutic efforts to address traumatic events," as his brief to the court says — because what matters is not his intent but whether any reasonable person targeted in the rants would regard them as menacing warnings.To vent or not to vent?
Parties on both sides of the groundbreaking case are asking the court to consider the unique qualities of social media. In this rapidly evolving realm of communication, only the occasional emoticon may signal whether a writer is engaging in satire or black humor, exercising poetic license, or delivering the kind of grim warnings that have presaged school shootings and other acts of mass violence.
Elonis, who has served prison time for his Facebook posts, and some of his supporters say the court must look beyond incendiary content to discern the writer's intent.
"Internet users may give vent to emotions on which they have no intention of acting, memorializing expressions of momentary anger or exasperation that once were communicated face-to-face among friends and dissipated harmlessly," said a brief filed on Elonis's behalf by the Student Press Law Center, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the writers organization PEN.
Power To Truth
Why you can't take powerful protesters seriously:
One of the most fascinating conceits of our ruling powerful elites — be they in entertainment, politics, governance, jurisprudence or news reporting — is the often repeated assertion of being some kind of underdog 'speaking truth to power.' This comes with the concomitant illusion that anyone opposing them is paid by powerful interests. Never mind that the ones making the accusation are usually in positions of power and receive recognition all out of proportion to their achievements.You can't fight the man if you are the man...
The Others
If not Hillary, who?
After Hillary Clinton, we have … um … Jim Webb, who I bet you can't even remember what office he held, and outgoing Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley, who couldn't even get his own lieutenant governor elected as his handpicked successor in a blue state. If anything happens to Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Committee will effectively be taking out LeBron James to send in Pee-wee Herman.Inevitability can ultimately be a drag...
But how big a problem is this? You don't need a dozen good people on the bench, just one or two who could make a plausible run for the presidency. And those people tend not to emerge when there's not much of a realistic shot at winning — for example, when you've got a high-profile candidate with great name recognition, primary experience and most of your party's donor base sitting in their back pocket. Once Hillary wins or loses, other people will presumably start grooming themselves for a serious run, rather than make an idealistic attempt to pull the party leftward in the primaries or a long audition for the VP slot.
I've seen this argument made by smart people who know more about politics than I do, and part of me is convinced. But the other part of me wonders where those candidates are going to come from if Democrats remain confined to the deep-blue parts of the map. Those places are more populous, but less numerous, than the red states — which means fewer governors and congressmen to choose from. Especially because a few blue states have shown a penchant for electing Republican moderates to rein in their liberal legislatures.

North Korean Staycation
What does it say when even North Korea doesn't want you?
"I was trying to stay in the country," said Miller. "They wanted me to leave. The very first night they said, 'We want you to leave on the next flight.' But I refused. I just did not leave."Well, he almost got what he wanted...
In April, North Korea's state news agency KCNA announced that an American citizen had been detained at Pyongyang airport after apparently attempting to claim asylum. In a dictatorship without any independent media, which is known for its furious anti-US vitriol, verifiable facts were difficult to come by. But according to Miller's account, North Korea's version of events had been largely accurate.
On his flight from China to Pyongyang, Miller had intentionally damaged his tourist visa. Fifteen days later, after a series of run-ins with Pyongyang authorities, he was removed from his tourist hotel and detained.
The general consensus among North Korea analysts was that Pyongyang would welcome the chance to use Miller as a pawn in its diplomatic wrangling with the US, as it continues to defy international sanctions against its nuclear programme, and widespread criticism of the regime's human rights abuses. But Miller says it was only after much persuasion on his part that authorities finally took him in.
Finally, at a show trial in September, he was sentenced to six years of hard labour for entering the country illegally and committing "hostile acts" against the state – a charge he now describes as both true and false.
Geek Revolt
Way to tick off your base, guys:
The International Game Developers' Association branded some 10,425 Twitter accounts, including those of journalists, as harassment "offenders" in a humiliatingly ill-conceived attempt to provide a "blocking tool" to its members.And just who are these offenders?
The blocking tool, which has been widely mocked online for its lack of sophistication and "blanket ban" approach, was assembled by Randi Harper, a persistent online agitator. The tool prevents users from seeing not only the tweets of users Harper has decided are implicated in harassment, but also many accounts who simply follow those users, by blocking a list of thousands of users with the use of an automated "bot."
So indiscriminately has the block list been compiled that the IGDA's own staff appear on it. Roberto Rosario, chair of the IGDA in Puerto Rico, is named on the list. In an acutely embarrassing moment for the Association, Rosario, who is not a GamerGate supporter, publicly threatened to resign unless his name was removed or the bot was disavowed.
He later told Breitbart: "It's ridiculous, an insult, its anti-ethical, probably criminal and just plain false. I've been fighting for freedom, openness, anti-censorship and equality. A simple Google search of my name will reveal all the projects I've headed or collaborated on. The facts are there, clear as day."
The block list endorsed by the IGDA contains a number of eyebrow-raising inclusions. Alex Wilhelm, a reporter at TechCrunch, the UK Twitter account for publisher Penguin, Guardian journalists, actor Taye Diggs, feminist critics and your present correspondent are all present on the list.This is what happens when "social justice" has a hissy fit...
But perhaps the most absurd Twitter account on the list is the official account of KFC. That's right: Kentucky Fried Chicken was, at least for a while, according to a prominent international video games industry body and thanks to the hysteria of so-called social justice warriors such as Randi Harper, one of the worst harassers of women on the internet.
Google Gulliver
Why don't Europeans like Google?
Actually breaking up Google would go a hell of a lot further. The idea had been floated earlier this year by a top German official, but who would have thought anyone would take it seriously.Say what you will about Google, but in America these would be seen by many as a positive...
And here's the thing: as far as I can tell, there isn't any real reason for trying to break up Google, other than the fact that it's very big and very not European.
There's no discussion about any actual harm... just the fact that some people don't like the fact that the company is so big (and not European).
Afghan Extension
We're leaving...oh, wait. We're not leaving?
In an announcement in the White House Rose Garden in May, Mr. Obama said that the American military would have no combat role in Afghanistan next year, and that the missions for the 9,800 troops remaining in the country would be limited to training Afghan forces and to hunting the "remnants of Al Qaeda."But wasn't that the point of leaving?
The decision to change that mission was the result of a lengthy and heated debate that laid bare the tension inside the Obama administration between two often-competing imperatives: the promise Mr. Obama made to end the war in Afghanistan, versus the demands of the Pentagon that American troops be able to successfully fulfill their remaining missions in the country.
Suits On The Ground
Never let civil unrest go to waste:
The attorneys are arriving in Ferguson as talks between protest groups and police have stalled over a refusal by officials to rule out the use of riot gear, tear gas and militarized equipment if demonstrations turn violent should a grand jury decide not to indict police officer Darren Wilson, protest leaders say.How far can you travel on flat feet?
Wilson, who is white, shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown in a Ferguson street on August 9. The death sparked weeks of sometimes violent protests, and hundreds of arrests. The grand jury decision on whether to indict Wilson is imminent and police fear another wave of violence if he is not charged. Tensions in Ferguson and the St. Louis area are running high.
The lawyers, some from as far afield as New York and California, have responded to calls from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and protest groups in Ferguson to monitor police behavior in the wake of the grand jury decision. They will also take an aggressive legal posture, the attorneys said, filing quick fire lawsuits to fight potentially shoddy jail conditions, onerous bail bonds and civil rights abuses.
A Dog's Life
The world of dogfighting goes on:
Despite being banned in all 50 states and the momentum generated by the Vick case, the ancient blood sport is thriving in the underground, with hundreds of thousands of dollars at stake on big matches, police detectives and prosecutors said.Animals aren't always just in the arena...
State laws still require no minimum mandatory jail time, so while arrests and convictions can be disruptive to dogfighting rings for a short while, the practice continues to flourish.
"Unfortunately, in our courts today, animal welfare is not given the attention and seriousness that it deserves," said Cyrus Zomorodian, the Jacksonville-based animal cruelty prosecutor who tried Coleman's case. "We constantly fight for more court time, resources and attention."

The Green Gas Of Home
Going green causes global warming?
Scientists have found that corn, rice, wheat and soybean are the four leading crops that account for maximum CO2 release in the atmosphere of Northern Hemisphere. Crops act as sponge for CO2 and it could be said that the sponge effect has become bigger because of the advancements in agricultural techniques, leading to more production. There is a sharp rise in demand of food production because of growing population across the world, which means that the levels of CO2 will only increase in coming years.Blame it on the vegans?
Researchers have also showed that agricultural production is likely to account for 25% surge in the seasonal carbon cycle. And corn will play a leading role.
"This study shows the power of modeling and data mining in addressing potential sources contributing to seasonal changes in carbon dioxide. It points to the role of basic research in finding answers to complex problems", said Liz Blood, program director for the National Science Foundation's Macro Systems Biology Program, which funded the research.
Laser Time
Who wants a death ray in their watch?
Because the laser is so powerful, the battery on the watch will only last between 5 and 10 minutes. But that's 5 minutes of awesome laser arson.So far, no calls from James Bond...
Which has got to be better than being able to read your emails or check stock reports on a tiny screen. Sorry, Apple.
So far, Patrick's watch is a limited edition of one, which he says took around 40 hours to make.
Lost And Found
Lois Lerner's missing emails have magically been recovered:
The U.S. Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) informed congressional staffers from several committees on Friday that the emails were found among hundreds of "disaster recovery tapes" that were used to back up the IRS email system.Amazing what a little incentive will do...
"They just said it took them several weeks and some forensic effort to get these emails off these tapes," a congressional aide told the Washington Examiner.
Committees in the House and Senate are seeking the emails, which they believe could show Lerner was working in concert with Obama administration officials to target conservative and Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status before the 2012 presidential election.
Missed Target
No, she wasn't paranoid:
A Department of Justice document dump to government watchdog Judicial Watch, made public yesterday, shows former DOJ Spokeswoman and Holder Flack Tracy Schmaler talking to the White House about "out of control" investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson. Attkisson was covering Operation Fast and Furious for CBS News at the time.That's what happens when a journalist actually does her job...
An email was sent by Schmaler to White House Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz on October 4, 2011 and shows she planned to call Attkisson's editor and longtime CBS anchor Bob Scheiffer to get a handle on her reporting.
Emails also show Schultz responding to Schmaler with, "Good. Her [Attkisson] piece was really bad for the AG."
Beard Ball
Fear the beard:
Quarterbacks play better with beards, and we have the data to prove it.Beard power?
West Coast Shaving performed an original research project that looked at every roster photo in the NFL from 2014 to note the different hairstyles and facial hair combinations.
The first part of their analysis took a look at the most popular haircuts and broke it down into five distinct categories: Short Hair/Buzz Cut, Medium Hair, Dreadlocks, Long Hair and Bald.
The New England Patriots sit atop the AFC with an 8-2 record, and research shows they also lead the league in medium haircuts — by almost 5 percentage points!
Good Neighbors
Canadians pay respect:
Welcome To The Poorhouse
Where the jobs aren't:
The official U.S. unemployment rate has indeed fallen steadily during the past few years, but the economic recovery has created the fewest jobs relative to the previous employment peak of any prior recovery. The labor-force participation rate recently touched a 36-year low of 62.7%. The number of Americans not in the labor force set a record high of 92.6 million in September. Part-time work and long-term unemployment are still well above levels from before the financial crisis.Welcome to America. Good luck finding work...
Worse, middle-class incomes continue to fall during the recovery, losing even more ground than during the December 2007 to June 2009 recession. The number in poverty has also continued to soar, to about 50 million Americans. That is the highest level in the more than 50 years that the U.S. Census has been tracking poverty. Income inequality has risen more in the past few years than at any recent time.
What Next?
So, how will Republicans respond to President Obama's rule? Do even they know?
The many disparate ideas leave Republicans without any clear course of action after the president moves forward. And neither will most of them be present in Washington since Congress has recessed.I'm sure they'll come up with something...and then what?
Many lawmakers have gone home, others to fundraising events, like several near Boca Raton, FL, where the Republican Governors Association convened a meeting this week. This afternoon, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy is participating in a panel discussion and reception at the Hoover Institute with former Bush Secretary of State Condaleeza Rice.
Fat Force
Are we too fat to fight?
"I am very concerned about the reduced number of men and women who can meet all of the qualifications required to serve in our armed forces," said retired U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Steven Tomaszeski.Maybe there is a place for Michelle Obama's lunch program after all...
Now, retired admirals from Maryland are releasing a report, citing obesity as the number one reason young adults can't serve in the military.
"Nearly one quarter, 25 percent of all Americans ages 17-24 are too overweight to serve. Obesity is not only affecting those who can qualify for military service, it is also creating challenges for our active duty military," Tomaszeski said.

'Droid Rage
Rise of the androids:
Unable, for now, to use some of the advanced artificial intelligence (AI), face and voice recognition systems that some Japanese robots coming on the market now use, Asuna relies on a camera rigged behind her that is relayed to a remote human controller to give her life.They are evolving...
This so-called tele-presence enables Asuna to come alive, taking on the operator's personality.
A fully independent version of the geminoid is expected in 10 years using all the above technologies to make her virtually indistinguishable from humans says Mr. Takeshi Mita, CEO of A-Lab in Tokyo, the company working with Prof. Ishiguro to make Asuna and her kind commercial.
'We already have 20 year's experience making androids in the lab. So in 10 years we will marry AI and life like geminoids in perfection,' he told MailOnline.
'We had been focusing on perfecting her skin, facial expressions, and so on, so for now Asuna is really just a head. Now we are working on her arms and torso to give very natural, fluid body language.'
Property Values
As she should be:
U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York Loretta Lynch, who Obama seeks to elevate to U.S. attorney general, replacing Eric Holder, announced in January that her office collected more than $904 million in criminal and civil actions in fiscal year 2013. While the policy generates funds used for other law enforcement efforts and offsets the burden on taxpayers, liberals and conservatives alike have questioned asset forfeiture as "an abuse of due process." Experts say Lynch will likely have to defend the practice she once touted.They need to keep the gravy train going...
"It's definitely a subject likely to come up and she'll be pressed on it," said Tim Lynch, director of Cato Institute's Project on Criminal Justice. "I don't know what she's going to say, but I would expect her — as someone who's going to assume leadership of the entire Justice Department — to come to the defense of these existing practices and I would be surprised if she struck a chord that's different from that. The Department of Justice likes things exactly the way they are, so I assume she's going to defend the status quo."
Classical Cruz
Ted Cruz quotes Cicero:
"When, President Obama, do you mean to cease abusing our patience? How long is that madness of yours still to mock us? When is there to be an end to that unbridled audacity of yours swaggering about as it does now?" Cruz asked.Hopefully he won't suffer Cicero's fate...
Cruz continued reading the Cicero selection, citing Obama for dictating "by his pen and his phone."
"He won't even come into the Senate," Cruz continued. "He will not take part in the public deliberations. He ignores every individual among us."
Jay Walking
Why did Jay Leno cave?
"We are clearly disappointed by Jay Leno's decision not to perform at the 2015 SHOT Show State of the Industry Dinner. He unilaterally cancelled his promised appearance due to pressure from the anti-gun lobby, which included false statements about our industry and its commitment to genuine firearms safety, which we attempted to personally correct with him, but to no avail. We are not deterred by their publicity seeking nor are we unfamiliar with the bullying political tactics of the gun control groups that seem to have as little respect for the First Amendment as they continually demonstrate with regard to the Second Amendment," NSSF released in a statement late last night. "We are proud of the many programs that we run that meaningfully contribute to public safety including our long standing Project ChildSafe and Don't Lie for the Other Guy initiatives in addition to our members everyday work in compliance with comprehensive federal and state laws. We will not allow the lawful commerce in firearms nor our industry to be demonized and we will continue to speak out for the Second Amendment rights of the millions of law-abiding citizens who are our customers. Despite Mr. Leno's cancellation, we look forward to having our biggest and best State of the Industry Dinner to date with a performer that respects the contributions of our industry and the customers it supports."Charity-and courage-begins at home...
A record number of people attended the 2014 SHOT Show and pumped $73 million into the local Las Vegas economy over the course of just a few days. In partnership with the PGA the annual NSSF charity golf event, Birdies for the Brave, raised $100,000 for military homefront groups.
Happiness Isn't
Are we unhappy people?
According to the site, "The HPI uses the Ecological Footprint promoted by the environmental charity WWF as a measure of resource consumption. It is a per capita measure of the amount of land required to sustain a country's consumption patterns, measured in terms of global hectares (g ha), which represent a hectare of land with average productive biocapacity."Only the dead are happy?
In fact, the HPI claims that economic activity is particularly untrustworthy. Nations that are richer than others apparently aren't happier, according to the index.
Oddly, the HPI doesn't seem to measure "human rights abuses," no matter how they might be measured. This must explain why China is rated at the 60th happiest country despite the fact that it is also one of the biggest human rights abusers in the world.
Another oddity of this measurement of "happy" nations is that Venezuela comes in at 9th place.
Yet, a recent New York Times article noted that Venezuela is more dangerous than Iraq.
"In Iraq, a country with about the same population as Venezuela," the Times wrote in 2010, "there were 4,644 civilian deaths from violence in 2009, according to Iraq Body Count; in Venezuela that year, the number of murders climbed above 16,000."
Final Wrap
RIP Mike Nichols:
His 1966 film directing debut "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" unforgettably captured the vicious yet sparkling and sly dialogue of Edward Albee's play, as a couple (Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor) torment each other over deep-seated guilt and resentment.Some film themes are eternal, and now, so is Mr. Nichols...
Nichols, who won directing Emmys for his works "Angels in America" and "Wit," said he liked stories about the real lives of real people and that humor inevitably pervades even the bleakest of such tales.
"I have never understood people dividing things into dramas and comedies," Nichols said in a 2004 interview with The Associated Press. "There are more laughs in 'Hamlet' than many Broadway comedies."
He was a wealthy, educated man who often mocked those just like him, never more memorably than in "The Graduate," which shot Dustin Hoffman to fame in the 1967 story of an earnest young man rebelling against his elders' expectations. Nichols himself would say that he identified with Hoffman's awkward, perpetually flustered Benjamin Braddock.
At the time, Nichols was "just trying to make a nice little movie," he recalled in 2005 at a retrospective screening of "The Graduate." ''It wasn't until when I saw it all put together that I realized this was something remarkable."
Fannie And Freddie Were Owned
I'm sure everything will be just fine:
Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) Director Mel Watt said on Wednesday that he did not see the government relinquishing control of housing giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac anytime soon, even as the Democratic chairman of a Senate committee urged him to pursue that course.On the other hand, maybe this is a fitting punishment...
Watt told the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee at a hearing that "conservatorship cannot, should not be a permanent state," but added that "it is the role of Congress to define what a future state is." Fannie and Freddie were placed under conservatorship, or government ownership, by the FHFA in 2008 after taxpayers were forced to bail out the companies with $188 billion in the wake of the mortgage meltdown.
The Afghan Con
The military got scammed:
The ransom payment was first disclosed by Rep. Duncan Hunter in a Nov. 5 letter to Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel. Mr. Hunter stated in the letter that Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) made the payment covertly as part of a release deal. But the money was stolen by the Afghan intermediary claiming to represent the Haqqani terrorist network.No one likes to admit they've been conned...
"Given the significance of this matter, as well as the fact that Pentagon officials have denied that a payment was even considered — and you also said you were unaware of any such attempt — I ask you to immediately inquire with JSOC to determine the specific order of events," said Mr. Hunter, California Republican and member of the House Armed Services Committee.
Mr. Hunter also asked Mr. Hagel whether ransom payments are being considered for other captives.

The Canadian Option
The Canadian ambassador is concerned:
Ambassador Doer is probably a little too diplomatic to mention this, but Canada has other options for the crude than the US. China would like to buy the production from the Alberta tar sands too, and their refineries will be much less efficient and more polluting than anything we would use, plus the long transport over the ocean could create even more environmental issues. Bottom line: Canada's going to sell this somewhere, and the Keystone pipeline offers the best environmental option for its transport and use.If not us, then who?
Slow Lerners
Apparently the IRS is really bored:
In a federal FOIA lawsuit by Judicial Watch seeking records of Lerner emails and IRS efforts to retrieve the emails, the IRS used two of the comments to the Legal Insurrection Reader Poll post to justify the IRS no longer disclosing the identities of IRS personnel.Let them eat criticism...
Think about that. The IRS is reading our comments. Don't they have anything better to do, like hassle conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status? On second thought, keep reading our comments and leave conservative groups alone.
No Money No Problems?
Has Al Sharpton's debt finally caught up with him?
Records reviewed by The New York Times show more than $4.5 million in current state and federal tax liens against him and his for-profit businesses. And though he said in recent interviews that he was paying both down, his balance with the state, at least, has actually grown in recent years. His National Action Network appears to have been sustained for years by not paying federal payroll taxes on its employees.Being a "liberal icon" means not having to have any visible means of support...
Burst Pipeline Dreams
Keystone is dead, at least for now:
Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., had resurrected the legislation ahead of a tough runoff election next month, hoping to show her Washington clout and put Congress on record in support of the pipeline -- even though the White House indicated President Obama would consider vetoing.But they may have to do it without Mary Landrieu...
With pipeline backers falling short and the project still stuck in a State Department review process, Republicans already vowed to bring up the legislation in the next session when they have complete control of Congress.
"This will be an early item on the agenda in the next Congress," Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell said after the vote.
Persona Non Gruber
President Obama and Nancy Pelosi aren't the only ones who are trying to deny Jonathan Gruber's existence:
Videos from college conferences and Washington think tanks over the last few years show Gruber bragging about the law's deliberate complexity and belittling American voters' intelligence.Out of sight, but definitely not out of mind...
Now at least two colleges who hosted the professor have tried to scrub Gruber from the internet. The University of Pennsylvania removed Gruber's October 2013 panel appearance — in which he laughed about "the stupidity of the American voter" — on November 10, but quickly reposted the video after withering criticism.
On Monday the University of Rhode Island took a page out of Penn's book, removing a 2012 discussion where Gruber explains how the law was passed to "exploit" the American voters' "lack of economic understanding." URI offered no explanation on its webpage as to why the video was pulled.

Rocket Shirt Science
The final word on the non-scandal of a scientist's tacky shirt belongs to those who aren't offended:
London Mayor Boris Johnson came to Taylor's defense after Internet sniping reduced the scientist to tears. (Reuters)Who killed feminism? Feminists.
"He is a space scientist with a fine collection of tattoos, and if you are an extrovert space scientist, that is the kind of shirt that you are allowed to wear," Johnson wrote.
The nimble-minded mayor went on to point out that the treatment of Taylor represented a double-standard when juxtaposed to that afforded Kim Kardashian; the shirt showed no exposed nipples or buttocks; and more nudity can be seen at the National Gallery than hanging in Taylor's closet.
"What are we all – a bunch of Islamist maniacs who think any representation of the human form is an offence against God?" Johnson thundered. "This is the 21st century, for goodness' sake."
Perry's Peril
The criminal case against Rick Perry is allowed to proceed:
Senior District Judge Bert Richardson ruled, "This court concludes that Mr. McCrum's authority was not voided by the procedural irregularities in how and when the oath of office … was administered," according to an article in the Austin American Statesman Tuesday afternoon.It sounds like somebody ought to...
Perry's attorney still disagrees. "The Texas Constitution, Article 16, specifically requires that an anti-bribery statement be filed with the Secretary of State prior to taking the oath of office," said Tony Buzbee, Gov. Perry's attorney, in a statement obtained by Breitbart Texas. "Mr. McCrum admitted that he failed to sign and file the anti-bribery statement before taking the oath. We lawyers defend the Constitution."
Frozen Toolbox
Obama gets his toolkit while America freezes:
The White House says its "resilience toolkit" is an extension of Obama's "Climate Action Plan" released last year which created the "State, Local, and Tribal Leaders Task Force on Climate Preparedness and Resilience" to help battle pollution and "record heat waves."Perhaps President Obama should get outside more...
According to Reuters, "After announcing two major global initiatives on climate change last week, the Obama administration pivoted on Monday to American towns and cities to help them adapt to the impacts of global warming."
Fracking For The Trees
Fracking comes to the woods:
The federal management plan reverses an outright ban on hydraulic fracturing that the U.S. Forest Service had proposed in 2011 for the 1.1 million-acre forest, which includes the headwaters of the James and Potomac rivers. Those rivers feed the Chesapeake Bay, which is the focus of a multibillion-dollar, multistate restoration directed by the Environmental Protection Agency.Because it wasn't up to him and his climate change cronies, thankfully...
A total ban would have been a first for America's national forests, which unlike national parks are commonly leased out for mining, timber and drilling. But some environmentalists were pleased that at least some balance was struck between energy development and conservation.
"We think the decision shows the Forest Service listened to the local community," said Sarah Francisco, leader of the Southern Environmental Law Center's national forests and parks program. "The vast majority of the forest is protected in this decision."
With both sides lobbying hard, Virginia's Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe told his climate change panel in September that federal officials had assured him fracking was off the table. "I won't allow it as long as I'm governor," he said.
But the final word rested with Ken Arney, a regional Forest Service manager. And by Tuesday afternoon, well after the decision was announced, the governor wasn't commenting.
Barking Insanity
It's always someone else's fault:
Emerald White says in her lawsuit filed this week in Galveston County district court that she was "seriously injured" on Oct. 27 trying to stop the attack and retrieve her dogs. She says she suffered "multiple serious bite and scratch-type injuries" and accuses her neighbors of failing to securely confine and restrict their dog, Bailey. …Some people (and their lawyers) are literally lower than dog droppings...
"The police took the action I wanted and declared those dogs dangerous and awareness was raised, so I decided to let it go," Baker said. "Now they're suing me for $1 million — I just can't believe it."
Mr. Turley Goes To Washington
Meet the man the Republicans have hired for their team:
Turley is no conservative. He was a favorite of the liberal media during George W. Bush's presidency, as he could be consistently counted on to deliver stinging indictments of the president's conduct. Turley's decision to prosecute the case against Barack Obama, a president for whom he twice voted, carries with it no less moral authority than did John Adams's decision to stand in defense of those British soldiers responsible for the Boston Massacre. Turley's action demonstrates that noble principle can still triumph over tribal political concerns.Well, maybe. It would be nice to think that some still exists in Washington...
The Quiet Years
In the past, Mary Landrieu was MIA:
From 2009 to 2010 she was silent at or skipped 65 of 87 hearings. From 2011 to 2012, she didn't say anything at or didn't attend 50 of 66 meetings. And from 2013 to 2014, her presence was undetectable at 22 of 47 sessions. Some of those hearings covered important issues for her coastal state, including the potential for oil spills, gas prices, the Department of Energy's budget, nominations of key energy regulators, the implementation of the stimulus bill, and the current status of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.Unfortunately, suddenly remembering she actually has a job title doesn't seem to have helped Ms. Landrieu that much...
Landrieu also often wasn't heard on climate change and appeared to skip entirely a hearing on sea level rise–a critical issue in coastal Louisiana. "Senator Landrieu isn't here today to speak to it or she would be, I'm sure, passionately pounding the desk here. I'll do so on her behalf," said Senator Lisa Murkowski, an Alaska Republican, at the April 19, 2012, hearing. Landrieu aides said their boss was voting on legislation allocating money to housing initiatives in the Appropriations Committee when Murkowski made her remark.
The Pelosi Proxy
In Nancy Pelosi's world, not all women are created equal:
Pelosi and her allies have been saying since Nov. 13, when the issue first came up, that House Democratic Caucus rules prohibit proxy votes, and that allowing exceptions for the Illinois Democrat would create a slippery-slope scenario.Except for those women whom Nancy Pelosi doesn't want to succeed...
Members and aides are privately seething over what they see as Pelosi's latest attempt to stack the deck against Rep. Frank Pallone Jr., D-N.J., who is running for ranking member on the Energy and Commerce Committee against Pelosi's closest friend and fellow Californian, Rep. Anna G. Eshoo.
And many members are concerned about the optics of not allowing Duckworth a proxy vote when Democrats are supposed to be the party that fights for women. Democrats have tried to make electoral gains by touting the "When Women Succeed, America Succeeds" economic agenda.
The Customer Is Sometimes Wrong
Is the customer always right? Maybe not:
The Other Obama
Obama versus Obama, in his own words:
Don't Let Freedom Ring?
Land of the free? Not so much:
The freedom scores are based on polling data from 2013 indicating citizens' satisfaction with their nation's handling of civil liberties, freedom of choice, tolerance of ethnic minorities, and tolerance of immigrants. Polling data were provided by Gallup World Poll Service. The index is notable for the way it measures how free people feel, unlike other freedom indices that measure freedom by comparing government policies.How low can we go, literally?
"This is not a good report for Obama," Legatum Institute spokeswoman Cristina Odone told the Washington Examiner.
In the 2010 report (which relied on data gathered in 2009), the U.S. was ranked ninth in personal freedom, but that ranking has since fallen to 21st, with several countries, including France, Germany and the United Kingdom passing the U.S.

The names being bandied about by Academy Award prognosticators as possibilities for this year's Best Supporting Actor trophy include some of the biggest stars of the last 50 years: Robert De Niro, Tommy Lee Jones, Leonardo DiCaprio, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Alan Arkin, Russell Crowe. There's one actor, however, that director Steven Soderbergh hopes isn't forgotten: Matthew McConaughey, the co-star of Soderbergh's "Magic Mike."
According to Showbiz 411 editor Roger Friedman, Soderbergh -- an Oscar winner for directing "Traffic" -- wrote a letter to Broadcast Film Critics that came included in a DVD package of "Magic Mike" delivered on Monday to voters.
"I'm breaking my long standing embargo regarding pleas for recognition because the core creative team of 'Magic Mike' really hopes people are reminded at the end of the year of Matthew McConaughey's performance as Dallas, which we found completely bananas in the best sense of the word."

Menino on Walsh: 'We're in good hands'
Updated On: Nov 06 2013 12:27:42 PM EST
Fresh off his victory, Mayor-elect Marty Walsh on Wednesday met with outgoing Mayor Tom Menino to discuss the future of the city.
Menino said the 46-year-old Walsh has his full support.
"We're in good hands. Marty has the ability, I think, to lead this city to the next level. And let's all continue to work together," Menino said.
The mayor wouldn't say for whom he voted on Election Day, but did deny reports he and Walsh have had an icy relationship in the past.
"There's people out there who want to have us fight with each other. They're trying to drag me into the campaign by saying certain things about me. I've kept my cool during the whole campaign, and I'll continue to do that," Menino said.
Walsh, for his part, thanked the mayor for his 20 years of service.
A winner by just 4 percentage points on Tuesday, the state representative knows he'll need Menino's help to build a coalition.
"I just want to thank Mayor Menino for his kindness today and his advice. He gave me some advice earlier in the room. And I look forward to working with him as we transition," Walsh said.

When first hearing that Coach Bons was removed from the football program it would be an understatement to say I was shocked. The administration was obviously looking at simply wins and losses and not the changes that were made from when he originially took over. I should know. When I was a freshman on the JV team in high school, it was also Coach Bons' first season as the head of the varsity team. He taught all of his players how to play together as a group and cooperate with constructive criticism thrown into our play. I can honestly say that my high s hool years of football were some of the most influential years on my life. I may have not known it at the time, but I sure do know and understand it now. Coach Bons made a lasting impression on us players and I still can say
I'm great friends with 15-plus of my former teammates. His teachings not only prepared us for games but for life as well. Pushing ourselves to the limits and then pushing more—proving that we can accomplish what we need in life if we put our mind to it. When we lost it only would show that life doesn't always go as planned: but you overcome and adapt and move on to the next game and move on to the next step in life.
I feel the board and Athletic Director need to reevaluate their decision. They should ask the community and current student body what they want before they remove someone.
Coaches can be replaced but you can't replace a mentor, friend, and teacher to prepare young adults for the challenges that will face them in the future.

While parking around LIRR train stations is typically a challenge, even on a regular work day, the holidays create more of a struggle for commuters in search of parking spots. LIRR spokesman Salvatore Arena said that ridership between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day increases by at least 10 percent; last year it was by 12 percent. Though the MTA is adding more trains to the schedule, that doesn't ease the parking situation, which is operated not by the LIRR, but by individual municipalities in each town.
"Every station is different," Arena said. "A good part of our parking is in the hands of the locality. They set the rules essentially."

LG G3 Launching Event in May 27th at San Francisco, London and New York; 10 Million Sales Targeted by LG
- Order Reprints

By Ryan Inoyori | May 2, 2014 3:44 PM EST
LG has announced an official event happening in May 27th at three locations - San Francisco, London and New York which may be the launching date of LG G3 smartphone. The company already set mass production of G3 and expects 10 million units as sales target of their new smartphone.
LG Event 2014
LG sets May 27th as an exclusive event at San Francisco, London and New York which may feature their upcoming G3 smartphone. It will also occur in Istanbul, Seoul and Singapore by the next day.
But LG did not announce the main attraction on their upcoming event or tipped out if G3 is going to be present or not. However, many believe G3 will attend the said even after sources confirmed the mass production and sales target of the new smartphone.
Last month, LG G3's user interface leaked out that features flattened and vanilla look similar to most Nexus devices. Moreover, LG G3 will boast a QHD or 2K display resolution and various revamps on the icons, widgets and services.
1. Official UI revamp such as flat, vanilla and brighter icons.
2. Widgets have been redesigned with built-in suggestions in the weather widget.
3. More on text rather than heavy-packed graphics for widgets.

Concierge feature is the new addition which acts similarly with Google Now but heavily customised by LG. It is an advanced personalisation tool which collects information from different sources online and observes usage to begin recommendation of useful data. Unlike Google Now, LG plans to offer more services beyond Google can using the Concierge.
Mass Production Started
Korean news media revealed that LG already started mass production of G3 and gearing up for its biggest day. Information leaked by Korean news media includes the LG's targeted sales figure of 10 million G3 units.
LG may have succeeded on G2, Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 but the sales target of 10 million units could be unattainable with their current issues on pushing flagship smartphones in the market. Additionally, the company may also suffer some setback with production difficulties just to achieve that number.
In case you are curious about the early specifications of LG G3, the upcoming smartphone sports 5.5-inches of 2K display, 2.5 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 16/32 GB of internal storage, 13 MP primary camera and Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS.

Microsoft and Bungie part ways
The whispers and omens of Halo developer, Bungie Studios departing from Microsoft were true. Microsoft announced today it will spin its record-breaking development team back into the wild. "Our collaboration with Bungie has resulted in Halo becoming an enduring mainstream hit," said Shane Kim, corporate veep of Microsoft Game …
I'll be damned, never thought it would turn out to be true.
I'll take my word-filled slice of humble pie on the patio, thanks.
Bungie are free from the Microsoft Tit
Never thought it would happen. Wander what new projects they will work on now?
Think they learned their lesson?
You would have thought Microsoft would have learned their lesson with Mechwarrior and how that property was trashed by them and then rotted.
MS cannot compete outside of their monopoly titles.
This is...
...A good thing! Forcing a decent load of developers (and they are decent) to sit down and make a series of over-hyped run of the mill shooters which for some reason seem to make consoletards ejaculate in their pants when the name is mentioned, is a bad thing. Now they're freed from the oppressive bonds of Microsoft. Perhaps they'll produce something for the PS3 that equates to what Bioshock was for the XBox 360. (I.e. Probably the best FPS/Story game developed for that platform.)
Unless we are talking flight sim huh?
Anybody would think MS - who I don't particularly like had a limited knowledge of the games market...
Bungie: Creative 'sharks' can't survive at Microsoft
Microsoft bought the leading 3D/animation company SOFTIMAGE in 1994 and sold it to Avid four years later. Now Bungie. I explain this phenomenon here:
"Bungie: Creative 'sharks' can't survive at Microsoft"
RE: Justin Stone
That's harsh man. I went from MS to Bungie and loved it there. Bouncing back to MS, but I sure will miss most of the guys. (which, btw, include tons of new MS and fresh blood).
Just because we have projects to work on, we're told what to write, doesn't mean we dont have creative sides.
I just dont tell you what I write, or anyone else for that fact, because if I did, people would yell: "HE's a microsoft employee writing *nix code!!" and articles would get published for silly things like that. I love my job and love my side projects. I will keep doing this till I retire.
Just goes to show
If you do sell your soul to the devil, you can buy it back.
I dont blame them for wanting to go independent again... A life just making Halo sequels? Urgh, how dull.

I've always been a little megalomaniac when it comes to sewing. Even as a raw beginner I never felt the urge to sew accessories. I mean – come on – who needs cell phone cozies and pillow covers? Back then I didn't even know how to sew a straight seam but seeing all the lovely creations here on burdastyle I immediately wanted to sew a dress.
Well – surprise – the dress didn't exactly turn out to be the perfect beginner's project. I had to learn that lesson the hard way. So now after a few years of ignoring any tutorials on sewing bags and iphone cozies and pillow covers here it is – my first tote!
I came across the old linen fabric at a local flea market and immediately fell in love with the pattern. The bag is lined in a plaid cotton from IKEA. Although the handles turned out a little funny, I really love this tote.

Common - Speak My Piece
Artist: Common
Producer: No I.D.
Album: Nobody's Smiling
Avg Rating: 2.4 ( 5 votes )
Common ain't the type to keep his mouth shut when he's got something on his mind. (I mean, he is a rapper.) Fortunately, hip-hop fans worldwide are all too happy to listen when he puts in his two cents. On Speak My Piece, the Chicago mainstay strays from the grim subject matter of previous song release to indulge in a little braggadocio. Project collaborator No I.D. provides a chaotic, percussion-driven backdrop for his skillful stunting. Nobody's Smiling, which will also feature previously-released single, Kingdom, is slated to drop July 22, via Def Jam. In the meantime, fans can keep it locked for more fresh singles.

Kenneth Waltz, international relations theory giant, dies at 88
Kenneth N. Waltz, a pre-eminent thinker on international relations who was known for his contrarian, debate-provoking ideas, not least his view that stability in the Middle East might be better served if Iran had a nuclear weapon, died on May 12 in Manhattan. He was 88.The cause was complications from pneumonia, said Columbia University, where Mr. Waltz was a senior research scholar.Leslie H. Gelb, emeritus president of the Council on Foreign Relations, characterized Mr. Waltz as one of five "giants" who shaped the study of international relations as a discrete discipline, the others being Hans Morgenthau, Henry A. Kissinger, Samuel P. Huntington and Zbigniew Brzezinski.The field developed in the 1950s, when the experiences of two world wars and the beginning of the cold war drove scholars to try to explain more precisely how nations interacted. The goal was to build a conceptual framework on which international politics could be analyzed, something earlier courses on military and diplomatic history had not offered....

Wouldn't it be great to just grab and fuck any hot girl you find attractive? No whining about headaches, no forbidden holes, just have the girl shut up and do whatever you like. Sorry guys this is called rape, and is highly illegal. However nothing wrong about fantasizing how you would rape an innocent girl. Believe it or not, there are girls out there who fantasize about getting raped as well! They are sick and tired of the boring sex at home and want to to be fucked like an animal in the bushes, being forced into things they would never do by themselves, being humiliated and suffering big pains... But secretly enjoying every inch of the cock entering them.

Fairmount's growth continues with 'artisanal' grocery
Send this to a friend

A former chef at Amada is opening what's being billed as an "artisanal grocer and cafe."
Tela's Market & Kitchen (1833 Fairmount Ave.) will be led by Chef Chad Williams, who was opening chef de cuisine at Jose Garces' Amada. More recently, he worked on the West Coast.
The market will have produce, meat, seafood, baked goods and made-to-order Four Barrel espresso and coffee drinks.
Once a week, Williams will host a reservation-only, family-style feast for 12.
Tela's (pronounced TEE-la's), which will open next month, is situated in a new building developed by Daniel Greenberg, president of North Broad Living. Retail-and-restaurant development in the Fairmount neighborhood has been steadily stretching eastward.
"As more people make this neighborhood their home, the demand for great food has only increased," said Greenberg.

Oregon farm turns to tea
|| Print |
|Articles - February 2013
|Monday, January 28, 2013
Page 1 of 2
The couple in charge of Minto Island Growers, a farm straddling Salem city limits, has become adept at growing and selling produce, and now they're ready to focus more on a different part of the farm: a half-acre stand of tea plants.
Despite a horticulture expert's view that tea is very difficult to grow in Oregon, they're plotting ways to make a finished product on-site and get it out to a wider retail market.
"It's a unique specialty crop in Oregon, and we think there's a market opportunity for it," says Elizabeth Miller, who runs the farm with her husband, Chris Jenkins.
Customers of the on-site farm stand like the teas — mostly green and oolong. Retailers have expressed interest too. A Eugene tea importer and tea bar, J-Tea International, introduced its own version of tea from Minto in November, for $4 a cup. A manager at a Salem health-food store says he might like to stock Minto tea. And Steve Smith, a former partner in Stash Tea Co. and the founder of the tea company Tazo, says he would be interested in carrying Oregon-grown tea at the Portland tasting room of his current company, Steven Smith Teamaker.
"We get a lot of culinary tourists in our shop, and I think that having Oregon-grown products would be highly appealing," Smith says.
Smith himself was involved in tea's introduction to Oregon. In 1989 he and the other Stash partners paid the expenses for an agriculture consultant, John Vendeland, to visit the site of a former tea plantation in South Carolina and come back with thousands of different kinds of Camellia sinensis seeds. "We were thinking of Oregon as a new origin [for tea]," Vendeland recalls. He started the plants in a greenhouse near Corvallis, to see which ones were suitable for growth outdoors. Half of the plants went outside the Stash office in Tigard; they all died. Vendeland brought the rest to Minto Island Growers, which a former business contact — Elizabeth Miller's father, Rob — was running at the time under the name Mt. Jefferson Farms.
For years the tea crop was a research-and-development project, not a source of income, Rob Miller says. The idea was to figure out which plants had the best chance of thriving in the Willamette Valley. Five or six varieties stood out, Vendeland says.
