"A two-year investigation by the Republican-controlled House Intelligence Committee has found that the CIA and the military acted properly in responding to the 2012 attack on a U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, and asserted no wrongdoing by Obama administration appointees."
Ahead on the 11/21/14 Maddow show
Tonight's guests:
- Alan Gomez, USA Today immigration reporter
- James Makawa, former NBC news correspondent who applied for amnesty in 1987
And here's executive producer Cory Gnazzo with what's coming up...
Friday's Mini-Report, 11.21.14
Today's edition of quick hits:
* POTUS hits the trail: "President Obama reaffirmed his plan to take executive action to reform the nation's immigration laws but said he will keep working with Congress to reach a legislative solution. 'I will never give up,' Obama said at Del Sol High School in Las Vegas."
* At least for now, the deadline is Monday: "Secretary of State John Kerry and his Iranian counterpart, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, canceled plans to leave the nuclear negotiations [in Geneva] Friday following marathon talks that lasted into the night."
* Signs of hope in Liberia: "The international response to West Africa's Ebola epidemic, coupled with more effective action by local communities, has stopped the exponential spread of the disease in one of the hardest-hit countries, Liberia, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Thursday."
* Terror divisions: "Escalating a war of words between terrorism's old and new schools, an Islamic scholar with al Qaeda's Yemen-based offshoot on Friday accused ISIS of 'planting ... disunity' among the various Islamic extremist factions fighting to topple the Syrian government and rejected the authority of the Iraq- and Syria-based group's self-declared caliphate."
* Ukraine: 'Vice President Biden abruptly canceled a wreath-laying ceremony Friday at a memorial marking Ukraine's pro-Western revolution after an angry crowd gathered to demand justice for those killed in the unrest."
* Ferguson: "Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has expressed concerns privately to Missouri officials this week about their recent actions in advance of a grand jury's decision in the Michael Brown case."
* Tunisia: "Less than a month after electing a new Parliament, Tunisians will vote Sunday in their first-ever open democratic presidential election, completing a tumultuous democratic transition begun with their revolution nearly four years ago."
* A not-so-lame duck: "The government transferred five low-level Guantanamo Bay prisoners to Eastern Europe on Thursday. Four of the men were Yemenis, and their resettlement was a significant policy change in the Obama administration's effort to close the prison at the naval base in Cuba."
'The House will, in fact, act'
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), in July 2013:
"It is time for Congress to act. But I believe the House has its job to do, and we will do our job."
House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), this morning:
"I will say to you, the House will in fact act," he said.
It's worth clarifying the context. Last year, when Boehner vowed that the Republican-led House will "act," he meant he and his colleagues were finally going to do something about the broken immigration system. This morning, when Boehner vowed that the Republican-led House will "act," he meant GOP lawmakers intend to stop President Obama from doing something about the broken immigration system.
The point, however, is that there's a challenge in taking the House Speaker seriously. Last year, he vowed that he and his members will do their job on immigration reform, and then Boehner broke his word. Now the Speaker is vowing to take on the president -- somehow, in some way, in reference to some policy dispute -- and given recent history, one would be forgiven for thinking, "We've heard this talk before."
There's an inherent problem when leaders lack credibility. Remember when Boehner said Republicans wouldn't pass a clean debt-ceiling increase? What the Speaker vowed would happen and what actually happened turned out to be very different things. Remember when Boehner said Republicans wouldn't shut down the government? The same dynamic unfolded.
Of course, there's also the issue of timing.
Palin identifies the key threat to America's future: Americans
The rules as applied to Sarah Palin haven't changed. As we talked about over the summer, the former half-term governor of Alaska remains a deeply silly person whose opinions are not to be taken seriously. When news organizations routinely make a fuss about her random missives, they're lending credence to a former officeholder who doesn't deserve it.
But every now and then, one of Palin's tirades stands out as newsworthy.
The right-wing personality released a new online video today, complaining about President Obama and immigration, offering the usual lines in a style that can charitably be compared to a teenager delivering a report about a book she hasn't read (via Simon Maloy).
But then Palin added this:
"We'll survive this president. The question is (overdramatic pause) can we survive the people who voted for him, twice?"
I don't know, can we?
Look, I realize that Palin holds the president in contempt. It's not entirely clear why, but she's not an Obama fan. I get it.
But this struck me as interesting because Palin seems to be arguing that her most pressing concern about America's future is the president that disgusts her; it's Americans themselves.
House Republicans finally file anti-Obama lawsuit
It took them long enough. Four months after announcing their intention to sue President Obama, House Republicans finally followed through. But while immigration policy is obviously the hot-button controversy of the day, and the GOP is certain the White House's policy is illegal, the new litigation has nothing to do with immigration. Jane C. Timm reported:
House Republicans on Friday filed a long-anticipated lawsuit against the White House, alleging the Obama administration abused its power by making unilateral changes to the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.The lawsuit comes just hours after President Obama enacted sweeping changes to the immigration system, enraging conservative lawmakers and setting the stage for an all-out war between the Republican Party and the president over the limits of his executive authority. The legal action threatens not only the president's healthcare overhaul, but could change the power of executive authority forever.
How we got to this point continues to be a story unto itself. As we talked about last week, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) first announced his plan to sue the president back in June. A month later, the Speaker's office formally unveiled the legislation to authorize the litigation. A month after that, House Republicans agreed to pay a D.C. law firm $500 an hour, in taxpayer money, to handle the case.
Things went downhill from there. Republicans hired a law firm to oversee the litigation, but the firm changed its mind in September and dropped the case. GOP leaders then hired a second firm, only to learn a month later that it dropped the case, too. This week, Republicans hired a new lawyer, George Washington University legal scholar Jonathan Turley, who filed today.
Of course, what really matters is what the case is about and whether it's likely to succeed.
GOP gets mixed message from party leaders
Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), a relative moderate among congressional Republicans, knew many of his GOP brethren would react strongly to President Obama's immigration policy, but Dent urged the party not to fly off the handle. "Don't take the bait, and don't have a hysterical reaction," the Pennsylvania Republican said. "We can be strong, rational and measured."
As Robert Costa reported, Dent is hardly the only Republicans worried about hysteria from within the ranks.
For Republicans the roiling debate over the president's decision is not only a fight with the White House, but a test of whether they can contain some of the unhelpful passions among their swelling majorities in both chambers. The task is keeping on-message and away from the controversial and sometimes offensive comments that have traditionally hindered attempts to bolster support for the party among Hispanics.Coupled with the desire to avoid the heated rhetoric is an effort to avert another showdown over government funding, weeks after the GOP made gains in the midterm elections and a year after a 16-day shutdown significantly damaged the party's brand.
Both House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) and incoming Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), the Washington Post report added, spent time yesterday "urging calm in their ranks."
The article came on the heels of a related Politico piece that noted Republican leaders are urging the party not to talk about presidential impeachment, "fearing it would give Democrats a message to rally around as the president's party is split over the hugely controversial move."
So, how's this working out? Not too well, and whether GOP leaders understand this or not, they're partly to blame.
Following defeat, Scott Brown returns to his Fox home
Several years ago, Paul Krugman introduced us to a useful phrase: "One important pillar of conservative political dominance, I believe, is the phenomenon sometimes called 'wingnut welfare': loyalists are always assured of decent employment, no matter how badly they perform."
Long shot. Senator. Television personality. Within a few percentage points of becoming a senator again. Now, television personality again.Scott Brown, the former US senator from Massachusetts who made a run for the Senate from New Hampshire this year, is rejoining FOX News.
A network official confirmed to the Boston Globe that Brown, fresh off his four-point defeat to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) a couple of weeks ago, will again be a Fox News contributor.
These gigs can be quite lucrative. Dylan Byers reported, "In his previous run as a contributor with the network, Brown earned a total of $136,538 from Fox, according to a personal financial disclosure document filed with the Senate Ethics Committee."
Nevada Speaker's racially charged rhetoric sparks uproar
Following up on yesterday's report, Republican Ira Hansen, the Speaker-designate in Nevada's state Assembly, garnered national attention this week after the public learned he wrote a right-wing column for many years, featuring controversial remarks about African Americans, women, Latinos, and gay people. The controversy is clearly growing.
Late yesterday, newly re-elected Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval (R) issued a statement criticizing his own party's legislative leader.
"I wholeheartedly disagree with Assemblyman Hansen's past public statements on race, religion, gender, and sexual orientation. This abhorrent kind of speech is unacceptable. He will have to answer questions regarding his previous statements himself."
The governor did not call for state lawmakers to choose a new Assembly Speaker, though the calls for such a change appear likely.
Indeed, Jeffrey Blanck, branch president of the Reno-Sparks NAACP, responded, "We understand that the caucus has many newly elected members who may not be as familiar with Mr. Hansen's past as we are. They need to know he has beaten the drum of intolerance for decades." Blanck urged lawmakers to choose a "less divisive" Speaker.
For his part, Hansen said in a statement, "I am deeply sorry that comments I have made in the past have offended many Nevadans. It is unfortunate that these comments, made almost 20 years ago as a newspaper columnist and talk radio host, have been taken out of context and are being portrayed as intentionally hurtful and disrespectful. These comments were meant to be purposely provocative in various political, cultural and religious views. I have the utmost respect for all people without regard to race, gender, religious or political beliefs."
Given his published record, Hansen's claims about universal respect will probably be difficult for many Nevadans to believe.
Making matters slightly worse, another Nevada Republican lawmaker said last year he'd allow slavery if that's what his constituents wanted -- and Speaker-designate Hansen recently put him in charge of a powerful legislative committee.
Paul Ryan's poor memory fails him again
I've long marveled at Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) unusually poor memory, and his latest complaints about immigration policy suggest his recall troubles are getting worse (via Jon Chait).
"We've gone to the president and said, 'Give us time to do immigration reform, to work on the issue this year. We want to get this done.' And this is the reaction he has to that?" said Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), the 2012 vice presidential candidate. "He had two years with a super-majority of his own party, and he didn't lift a finger. And now he won't give us a few weeks?"
It takes a truly talented individual to pack in this many falsehoods into a single paragraph.
"Give us time to do immigration reform"? Well, Republicans have controlled the House for four years, during which time they haven't even held so much as a hearing on a piece of legislation. More to the point, the Senate passed a popular, bipartisan immigration bill 512 days ago, and soon after, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) promised the lower chamber would act on the issue. The Republican leader then broke his word and killed the reform effort.
In other words, Obama gave Republican lawmakers "time to do immigration reform," and the GOP did nothing. Does Ryan not remember this?
"He had two years with a super-majority of his own party"? Actually, no, Democrats had a super majority in the Senate for four months, not two years. It's a big difference.
"He didn't lift a finger"? Actually, Democrats tried to pass the DREAM Act, which used to be a bipartisan policy, when they controlled Congress. Republicans killed it with a filibuster.
"And now he won't give us a few weeks?" Well, President Obama not only gave Republicans all kinds of time, he also received no guarantee -- from Ryan or any other GOP leader -- that another delay would lead to real legislation. So what in the world is Ryan talking about?
It gets worse. Ryan also complained this week that Obama's decision to govern on immigration policy means Republicans won't govern on their own priorities.
Christie still afraid of his own shadow on immigration
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) was in South Florida this week for a party gathering, and like most of his Republican brethren, he was eager to condemn President Obama's immigration policy. But the Palm Beach Post asked the governor an interesting question.
A reporter asked Christie if it was fair to criticize the president without offering a proposal of his own."This is a ridiculous question," Christie responded. "Because I won't lay out my plan if I were president, that precludes me from criticizing the guy who asked for the job twice and was elected twice and who promised in 2008 that he would fix this problem when he had huge majorities in the Congress to be able to do it?
Well, for those who care about the details, when Democrats had "huge majorities," Republicans still killed bipartisan measures like the DREAM Act with a filibuster. But putting that aside for now, Christie's defense for his own evasions is arguably half-right.
The governor wants to be able to take verbal shots at the White House's policy without presenting a proposal of his own, and to a certain degree, that's kosher. At least for now, Christie is a struggling, scandal-plagued governor, not a presidential candidate, so it stands to reason that he won't have a detailed immigration policy proposal on hand.
The trouble, though, is that Christie wants to take pot shots at Obama while also refusing to even give his opinions about the basics of immigration policy -- and that cowardice is harder to dismiss.
Democrats had a Twitter trick of their own
During this year's midterm elections, some Republicans came up with a creative trick to get around election laws. As Chris Moody uncovered, GOP operatives posted polling data to dummy Twitter accounts as a way of using social media as a sort of dead drop -- allies could receive the lucrative data without literally coordinating with Republican campaigns.
Paul Blumenthal reported yesterday, however, that these kinds of tactics weren't limited to Republicans.
In 2012, the Democratic Party shared information about advertising buys through a seemingly unconnected Twitter account called AdBuyDetails. This account, which posted tweets from Aug. 31 until Oct. 23, 2012, sent out data on ad buys made by Democratic House candidates in tight races across the country.The purpose of the account, according to a source with knowledge of its creation, was to make that information public and thereby get around restrictions on information access built into an internal app used by top Democratic Party officials to share crucial campaign data.
In fairness to Dems, the 2012 tactic isn't exactly the same thing as what Republicans did this year, but the intended purpose of the tweets was obviously quite similar.
A party in search of a policy
If anger were a legitimate substitute for public policy, Republicans would be in excellent shape in the middle of a debate on immigration. The GOP has stockpiled enough rage, fury, insults, and red-hot disgust to last a lifetime. There isn't a shred of doubt in anyone's mind that the entirety of the Republican Party is experiencing genuine, 100%, Grade A outrage.
What Republicans don't have is a policy.
Or anything resembling a serious, substantive approach to the issue at hand.
A few days ago, Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.), a strident, right-wing voice in his party on immigration, sat down with Mark Halperin, who asked what the congressman would do about the nation's immigration challenges. Huelskamp dodged, so Halperin, to his credit, followed up, pressing the Kansas Republican to explain what he'd do about the millions of undocumented immigrants living in the United States. Huelskamp dodged again. So Halperin asked a third time, and the Republican would only say, "I want to know how many folks are here. I want to secure the border."
It was uncomfortable to watch -- the far-right congressman was clearly lost -- but it was a cringe-worthy reminder that Republicans still don't have a coherent immigration policy they're willing to share out loud. Ezra Klein had a good piece on this overnight.
Republicans aren't just the opposition party anymore. They are, arguably, the governing party -- they will soon control the House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, most state legislatures, and more governorships. And the governing party needs to solve -- or at least propose solutions -- to the nation's problems. And that means the Republican policy on immigration needs to be something more than opposing Obama's immigration policies. It needs to be something more than vague noises about border security. [...]There are 11 million unauthorized immigrants living in the country right now. Congress allocates enough money to deport roughly 400,000 of them annually. Our policy towards the 10.6 million unauthorized immigrants we're not deporting is that we don't have a policy. Democrats support a path to citizenship. Republicans don't support anything.
Quite right. There's a striking asymmetry, not just between Democrats and Republicans when it comes to presenting policy solutions, but between Republican responsibilities and Republican intentions -- they're a post-policy party with an aversion to governing, which is a problem for a party that has been given broad authority by voters to shape policy and govern.
'We were strangers once, too'
It's not every day that a leader can make an important, material difference in the lives of roughly 5 million people. It's what made President Obama's announcement last night such a breakthrough moment -- with congressional Republicans unwilling or unable to act, the president found a way to improve the immigration system on his own, changing the national landscape for millions of families.
"We expect people who live in this country to play by the rules. We expect that those who cut the line will not be unfairly rewarded. So we're going to offer the following deal: If you've been in America for more than five years; if you have children who are American citizens or legal residents; if you register, pass a criminal background check, and you're willing to pay your fair share of taxes -- you'll be able to apply to stay in this country temporarily, without fear of deportation. You can come out of the shadows and get right with the law."
I saw some suggestions last night that Obama extended "legal status" to undocumented immigrants. That's incorrect -- the White House policy extends temporary status to a limited group of immigrants and shields them from deportation threats. They'll be eligible to work legally in the United States, but as Obama noted in his remarks, further action would require statutory changes that only Congress can approve.
Indeed, one of the striking things about the president's speech was the degree to which he anticipated critics' arguments, explaining in advance why they're incorrect.
Republicans will say Obama's been lax on border security, so he reminded the nation that he increased border security and pushed illegal border crossings to a four-decade low. Republicans will say Obama hasn't worked in a bipartisan way with Congress, so he reminded viewers that he worked with both parties on the popular and bipartisan Senate bill. Republicans will say Obama's actions are unprecedented, so he reminded everyone that his new actions are "the same kinds of actions taken by Democratic and Republican presidents before me."
Republicans will say Obama's policy is "amnesty," so the president explained, "Amnesty is the immigration system we have today -- millions of people who live here without paying their taxes or playing by the rules, while politicians use the issue to scare people and whip up votes at election time. That's the real amnesty -- leaving this broken system the way it is."
All of which is wrapped up with an emotional appeal that dovetails with the substantive merits: "Scripture tells us that we shall not oppress a stranger, for we know the heart of a stranger -- we were strangers once, too. My fellow Americans, we are and always will be a nation of immigrants. We were strangers once, too."
Will the policy help? Clearly, yes. Is the policy fair? Indeed, that's the point. Is the policy pro-family? Obviously. But is the policy legal?

WEEI.com has confirmed via a league source that the Patriots have worked out former Pittsburgh linebacker Bruce Davis. A third-round pick out of UCLA in 2008, the 24-year-old Davis played a limited role on special teams last season for the Steelers, seeing action in five games with Pittsburgh. As a collegian, he had impressive numbers with the Bruins, finishing his college career with 29 sacks, second most in school history. The 6-foot-3, 252-pound Davis is the son of former Oakland offensive tackle Bruce Sr., who won two Super Bowl rings with the Raiders.

Harlem rapper Lil Mama appears to be international bound by confirming plans to venture out to Paris, France and leave a hip-hop stamp in Europe.
Mama said no matter her location, she will keep her hip-hop roots and grind going.
"I'm definitely gonna go to Paris, and do what I want, when I want, how I want. But I think when [radio host] Angela Yee, one of the jocks on [Power] 105, she was like, "Well, Lil Mama, you know, you're saying that you plan on moving to Paris, but then I don't think you're serious about your music." But, it's like Jay-Z and Kanye have a song called "N*ggas in Paris,"…we can go to Paris, we can go to Africa; we can go to Egypt; we can go anywhere in the world; China, Japan…hip-hop is forever and hip-hop is universal. I can go to Mars and make music. So at the end of the day, anybody that thinks like that, like if you go to a different country or continent or place that you're not serious about your music, that doesn't make sense to me. Music never stops. Music is alive." (XXL Mag)
In June, Mama hinted at plans to pack up and head out to Paris.
"Um, I'm just living my life, you know," Mama said when asked if she is working on a new album. "I'm about to move to Paris. I don't even know about music anymore. [Am I serious?] Maybe. I just dropped a new single, 'On & On & On' and it's getting a really good response. So I just want to thank my fans for that. (Rap-Up)
A month prior, Mama dropped her "On & On & On" single.
Lil Mama is a busy lil' lady! In addition to performing her judging duties on "America's Best Dance Crew," she's also been in the studio working hard on new material. On her latest song, "On & On & On," she displays the same playfulness with language that made her first big single, "Lipgloss," a hit, while simultaneously stepping up the intensity to something a bit more grown-up and aggressive. (Buzzworthy)
Since signing to Jive Records around 2007, Mama has only released one album.
VYP (Voice of the Young People) is the debut album by rapper Lil Mama which hit stores in the U.S. on April 29, 2008, however, the album was released in the United Kingdom on April 28 before its official release on April 29. Its first single was "Lip Gloss". Its second single was "G-Slide (Tour Bus)". The third single, "Shawty Get Loose" features Chris Brown and T-Pain. The album debuted at number 25 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, selling 19,000 copies in its first week. (Wikipedia)

My Fitbit One is not syncing
Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit
- Log into your Fitbit.com account using your email and Fitbit password.
- Click the gear icon in the upper right corner of the Fitbit dashboard.
- If you do not see a One Tracker listed in the gear icon menu, you need to successfully complete the device setup using the Fitbit Connect application to pair your Fitbit One.
Follow the instructions for Replacing the Fitbit One with a Fitbit One if you have the Fitbit Connect software app on your computer.
If you do not see the Fitbit Connect software, you can download it by clicking the pink DOWNLOAD button on at fitbit.com/start/one.
Hint: You will know you have successfully completed this step when you have entered a 4 digit number starting with a zero into the computer and have entered a greeting for your Fitbit One. You will then see the One Tracker listed in the gear icon as shown in the picture above.
- If you do see a One Tracker listed in the gear icon menu shown above, when is the last time or date it synced?
If the Fitbit One has synced within the last hour, the Fitbit One is successfully syncing to Fitbit. See Syncing FAQ for more in-depth information on how the syncing works.
Now log into Retrofitme.com and see if your steps are showing on your Timeline or My Data tab. If your steps are not showing at Retrofit, see My steps are syncing to Fitbit but not Retrofit.
If you Fitbit One has not synced for a while or perhaps days, see My steps are not syncing to Fitbit.
My steps are not syncing to Fitbit
You have already done a Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit. You do have a Fitbit One linked to your Fitbit account and it has not synced for a while or perhaps days.
- Press the button on your Fitbit One. Does your display illuminate?
- If your device is not illuminating at all when you press the button on the Fitbit, place it in the USB charger to charge. Be sure to have your computer on and that the charging terminals are aligned with the charging pads on the Fitbit One.
- If your device is illuminating but will not increase from zero steps, Reset your Fitbit One.
If your device is illuminating and shows your steps, proceed with the next step.
- Reboot your computer.
No matter you have a Mac or Windows computer, the Fitbit background sync service can sometimes be restarted by rebooting.
- Now do another Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit. If you see the same steps on your Fitbit Tracker as on the Fitbit.com website, your Fitbit Tracker is syncing to Fitbit.
- If you still do not see your steps at Fitbit, try a manual sync.
Manual sync your Fitbit Tracker sync to Fitbit.com
- If nothing else has worked, you may need to re-connect your Fitbit to your Fitbit account.
- To do this, follow the steps to Replacing the Fitbit One with a Fitbit One.
- Be sure to use your Existing account and choose to Replace your Fitbit One.
My steps are syncing to Fitbit but not Retrofit
If you have done a Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit and see your steps are indeed showing at Fitbit, but you do not see your steps at Retrofit on your Timeline or your My Data tab, proceed with the following steps. Remember that your Fitbit must first sync your steps to Fitbit before they can be updated at Retrofit.
- Log in at Retrofitme.com.
- If you are a new client and have not completed your Checklist you will need to connect your Fitbit account to Retrofit. Click the blue Connect Fitbit to Retrofit button on your checklist page.
- If you are not a new client and had previously connected Fitbit to Retrofit, first try to manually Update Data.
Go to your Retrofit Device Settings.
Click the blue Update Data button for the Fitbit.
- Check to see if you see if your steps are now being displayed either on your Timeline tab or your My Data tab. Remember that your Fitbit must first sync your steps to Fitbit before they can be updated at Retrofit.
If your steps are still not displaying at Retrofit you can Re-Authorize your Fitbit account. This typically only needs to be done if you have setup two Fitbit accounts using two different emails. You can re-authorize using the email for the Fitbit Account that has your current step data.
- If your steps are still not syncing contact firstname.lastname@example.com for assistance.
Manual sync your Fitbit Tracker sync to Fitbit.com
- Right click the Fitbit Connect icon in your Windows task bar in the bottom right of your screen.
- Click Sync Now.
- If your Fitbit Connect software is working and your Fitbit is ON and within range, your Fitbit data will sync to Fitbit.com.
- Now Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit
- Run the Fitbit Connect application from the Launchpad or from your Applications folder.
- Click Sync Now.
- If your Fitbit Connect software is working and your Fitbit is ON and within range, your Fitbit data will sync to Fitbit.com.
- Now Check to see if your steps are syncing to Fitbit
Incorrect time zone and steps not syncing
If the Fitbit One is new, it is likely that it did not properly get linked to your Fitbit account.
- Please follow the instructions for Replacing the Fitbit One with a Fitbit One.
You will know you are successful when you are asked to enter in a 4 digit number starting with zero, and asks you to enter a personal greeting.
If you have been using your Fitbit One and it is displaying your steps on the device, but you see that the time on the Fitbit One is not correct, and the steps on the device are not syncing to fitbit.com. The solution is to reset your Fitbit One, then conduct a firmware update.
- Please Update your Fitbit One firmware. There are fixes in the firmware that fixes this issue.
- If you are unable to update the firmware, try to Reset your Fitbit One, then try the firmware update again.
Reset your Fitbit One
Reset your Fitbit One:
- Plug your Fitbit charging wire USB into your computer USB. Your computer must be on.
- Plug your Fitbit One into the USB charging wire. Be sure the charging terminals match up with the connector in the inside of the charger, it could be upside down. You must plug the One in then go to step 3 immediately.
- Press and hold the button on the Fitbit One for a full 12 seconds. This turns your Fitbit off. To confirm, briefly tap the button once and it should not light up. If it does start over at step 1.
- Remove the Fitbit from the charger.
- Press the button on the Fitbit One for about 2 seconds until it powers up. Your Fitbit has been reset and you will see the current firmware level.
Update your Fitbit One firmware
There are several updates in the newer firmware that fix time zone and syncing issues.
Update your Fitbit One firmware:
- Be sure your Fitbit USB dongle is plugged into one of your computer USB ports.
- If you are on a Windows computer, right click the Fitbit Connect icon in your system tray in the lower right corner of your Windows screen. You may need to click an arrow to expand the hidden icons to see it. It will be a black square with a blue and white diamond. Right click that icon and click Open Main Menu.
If you are on a mac, find the Fitbit Connect icon in applications and double click it.
- Click Check For Device Update from the menu.
- Enter the email and password you used for your Fitbit account and click the pink Login button.
- Once the Fitbit Connect software has found your Fitbit One, it will update your Fitbit software or let you know it is already up to date.
- This firmware update fixes the time and syncing issue.
My computer is off. Why is scale syncing but my Fitbit is not?
- For the scale, the computer is only used as a temporary device to pair the scale to the Wi-Fi router. Once the scale has been paired with your Wi-Fi router, the computer is no longer needed unless there is a change in the Wi-Fi password. The scale then syncs the weight data directly over the internet through the Wi-Fi router right to Withings. That's why your scale is still working.
- The Fitbit One must use a computer to pair your Fitbit tracker to your user account at Fitbit.com. Then once paired, any computer can sync anyone's Fitbit to their account, as long as that computer has the Fitbit software and either has a USB Dongle for the Fitibit One. Once the Fitbit One has been paired with their account, certain mobile devices can be used to sync the Fitbit. What Mobile Devices are Supported?
The timer is running on my Fitbit One and my steps are lower then they should be.
- To put the Fitbit into sleep(timer) mode, press and hold the button on the Fitbit for 2-3 seconds. You will see the stopwatch start counting.
- To take the Fitbit out of sleep(timer) mode, press and hold the button on the Fitbit for 2-3 seconds. You will see the stopwatch stop counting.
Steps Registered While Driving
Unfortunately, driving on bumpy roads may cause your tracker to move in a way similar to walking, causing it to track steps and floors.
You can do the following to negate steps and floors tracked while driving:
- Go to your Fitbit Dashboard screen and click Log Activity.
- Select the date of the data you would like to clear.
- In the activity menu, type in and select Automobile or light truck (not a semi) driving. This is where you select the block of time you want to negate.
- Enter the Start Time and Duration.
- Select Log Activity. Your steps, floors, and calories burned decrease for the time period specified.
Repeat this process to decrease your steps, floors and calories burned for any other dates you have in question.
We apologize for the inconvenience involved in this process. Hopefully this method effectively clears your unwanted data, and allows you to maintain more accurate readings of your activity. Your Fitbit One is more sensitive than the Fitbit Ultra.
While driving, you can try placing the Fitbit somewhere less likely to bounce, such as the center console of your car.
Background sync service is not functioning
I get a message that the background sync service is not functioning.
- This is caused by some kind of security software on your computer blocking the use of the Fitbit sync service that runs in the background to sync your Fitbit.
- Many times during the installation either Windows or your security software will ask you if it's ok to run, or asks if is trusted, at at any point if you say no, the software or the service is blocked anytime in the future.
- You will need to tell whatever security software you are using, that Fitbit is a trusted service. Norton is a common security software, but depending on the security software, it might be different wording.
- You can try to completely uninstall your Fitbit Connect software, then re-install, being sure to look for security pop-ups and say yes or allow to them.
- You can also run your security software and list the Fitbit Connect software as trusted, or white list it. You still may need to re-install after this.

Just wondering where people are on this issue. Referendum 71 would rescind the "everything but marriage" law, which grants registered same-sex couples the same legal rights (other than marriage). In debating this topic, I've heard people say "why can't they settle for civil unions"? Well, Referendum 71 isn't enamored with those either.
So what's your view?
A. Gay marriage.
B. Civil unions or registered partnerships (the new Washington state law).
C. I'll sign up for Referendum 71.
My vote is A.
UPDATE: Here's an article that shows that the discrimination needs to end nationwide. Washington state couple meets insensitive Florida hospital.

Wobble Cafe Restaurant Review: This pro-kids venue offers affordable, creative fare with a majority of the dishes leaning to vegetal if not vegetarian preparations. The breakfast and lunch menu features "sammies" ranging from curried tuna salad with celery, onions, lettuce, tomato slices and crunchy currants in a sweet curry dressing to peanut or cashew butter and fruit spread. A build-your-own sandwich offers a variety of meats, condiments, vegetables and cheeses. Classic panini like the Capri with fresh mozzarella, basil and Roma tomatoes in a basil vinaigrette, and the ham and Swiss with tomato and honey mustard are good bets. Everything from pastas and salads to baked chicken and steak may be featured on the weekly changing dinner menu. Items like a hearty vegetarian ratatouille, classic penne a la vodka with sausage and peas, and a pesto-stuffed tomato served with corn chips give diners plenty of options at any time of day. The atmosphere is lighthearted and service is friendly.

Campus Party Bogotá 2010 – Desarrollo: Desarrollo de aplicaciones móviles Iphone, Ipad Y Android (Parte I) Campus Party Bogotá 2010 – Desarrollo: Desarrollo de aplicaciones móviles Iphone, Ipad Y Android (Parte II) Desarollo de Applicaciones Moviles Multiplatforma (slides): If you're like me and don't speak any Spanish, here's an English introduction to Campus Party from Steve Wozniak:
Category: Training/Support
New Video: "Physics in Five Lines"
We've been promoting the physics engine in Corona Game Edition, but how does it actually work, in concrete terms? How do you integrate it with familiar Corona code? This two-minute video, starring the humble crate, attempts to answer these questions: Of course, a crate is about the simplest possible case for a physics engine. But one test of a development tool is that simple tasks should be simple, and we think you'll agree that we've accomplished that here.
Introductory Corona Tutorials from Burtons Media Group
In a recent blog entry, Dr. Brian Burton of Burtons Media Group compared a number of game engines for iPhone, iPad and Android, and concluded: "I have given this a LOT of thought. I'm regularly asked by my students and others which engine(s) I am using. For 2D development, I have decided to go with Corona. I like the platform and being able to develop for multiple systems at the same time." Dr. Burton has also created some helpful tuturial videos for brand-new Corona developers: iPhone Game Development with Corona: Getting Started – Hello World Android Game Development with Corona: Getting Started Developing iPhone/iPad/Android Games with Corona: Working with Buttons If you're new to Corona development, you should definitely give these a look!

Yes, more Corona training is on the way…
In response to a frequently-asked question: we do plan on holding more (and longer) Corona training sessions, both in the SF Bay Area and in other parts of the country (New York, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, etc.) In the longer term, this will be done by our Authorized Training Partners, but in the short term we like to meet Corona users as often as we can! Also, we're working on making additional training materials, such as books or videos, available to the wider Corona developer community.
Thank you to training attendees!
Thanks to all who came out for our first official Corona training session! The event was a big success, with a sold-out room and high marks from attendees, and explaining Corona to a bunch of brand-new users really helps us shape our SDK documentation.

Books in Mind: "American Canopy," reviewed by Scott Howson
"Plank roads"--literally boards on the ground--stretched one board at a time for hundreds of miles. Railroads depended on wood for cars, trestle bridges, and millions of crossties, and for many years wood was the primary fuel for steam locomotives.
All of the world's first generation of aircraft were made of American Sitka spruce. The first cars were built on wooden frames. Wood has been essential, throughout our history, to our ability to move people and things from place to place and to shelter them where they settled. That's really something.
While trees were playing a vital and direct part in the westward development of our continent, America began to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the part forests played in national life. In the early years, forests were thought of only as an endless supply of trees. Over time, and usually in small steps, Americans have come to see forests as environmentally and psychologically important living organisms.
At the close of the 19th century, as the depletion of the virgin forests became obvious, popular support grew for government action to protect what remained. The creation of the National Park and National Forest systems consisted of clumsy, fitful, and politically cantankerous efforts that stretched over decades into the early 20th century.
A decade and a half later, during the Great Depression, President Franklin Roosevelt placed a great deal of political and financial capital in the New Deal's Civilian Conservation Corps. This massive program planted 2 billion trees, reclaimed extensive natural watersheds, built fire roads and shelters, and probably saved our public woodlands. National policy on forest management has taken a long time to mature, but it has provided what seems to be a successful approach.
Looking back, it is easy to see the progression in American thinking about trees. Our concept of how we should treat forests is, obviously, vastly different from that of our forefathers. The early settlers could not have possibly imagined the amount of money and manpower our generation spends on protecting forests. Conversely, we could not possibly imagine what it feels like to stumble upon an endless supply of wood. But what we would both recognize is the ongoing conflict between those who see

Chris Brown Making Music With Fellow Inmate James DeBarge
Chris Brown has been making some musical alliances during his time in the L.A. County Jail. It's being reported that Breezy has been penning some tunes with James DeBarge, a fellow R&B artist. The two are cell neighbors who are located in a more isolated part of the jail for high-profile inmates.
Reportedly, the two have already written three songs together -- but they can't see each other. Now THAT's collaboration!
James DeBarge was a part of his family singing group, DeBarge, which may be best known for their single "Rhythm of the Night". He was married to Janet Jackson very briefly and now struggles with a drug addiction, which is why he's serving time.
Chris Brown recently had his jail time extended after violating probation for his assault on Rihanna in 2009. Earlier this month, he admitted to getting in to an altercation with a man in Washington D.C. which prompted the judge to extend his time by four months
I'm sure their musical bonding has been a great way for Chris and James to keep a level head while locked up. Maybe we'll even get a chance to hear some of their collabs at some point!

I've spent some time with Rawr and tankspot trying to get my head around the best practices for gems/enchants/etc. I think I've done a pretty good job, but would like a sanity check. Is there anything out of line? Something silly I missed that would help things out a bit? (Outside of the gem mixup on my pants, I know I need to switch that around.)
I feel like I have some issues with multi-mob tanking, but I don't know if that's just a class-specific issue, or if its me.
Any advice, tips, etc would be great. Thanks for your time.

The aim of this study was to optimize the 3-dimensional (3D) fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) pulse sequence for isotropic high-spatial-resolution imaging of white matter (WM) and cortical lesions at 7 T.We added a magnetization-prepared (MP) FLAIR module to a Cube 3D fast spin echo sequence and optimized the refocusing flip angle train using extended phase graph simulations, taking into account image contrast, specific absorption rate (SAR), and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) as well as T1/T2 values of the different species of interest (WM, grey matter, lesions) at 7 T. We also effected improved preparation homogeneity at 7 T by redesigning the refocusing pulse used in the MP segments. Two sets of refocusing flip angle trains-(a) an SNR-optimal and (b) a contrast-optimal set-were derived and used to scan 7 patients with Alzheimer disease/cognitive impairment and 7 patients with multiple sclerosis. Conventional constant refocusing flip MP-FLAIR images were also acquired for comparison. Lesion SNR, contrast, and lesion count were compared between the 2 optimized and the standard FLAIR sequences.Whole brain coverage with 0.8 mm isotropic spatial resolution in ∼5-minute scan times was achieved using the optimized 3D FLAIR sequences at clinically acceptable SAR levels. The SNR efficiency of the SNR-optimal sequence was significantly better than that of conventional constant refocusing flip MP-FLAIR sequence, whereas the scan time was reduced more than 2-fold (∼5 vs >10 minutes). The contrast efficiency of the contrast-optimal sequence was comparable with that of the constant refocusing flip sequence. Lesion load ascertained by lesion counting was not significantly different among the sequences.Magnetization-prepared FLAIR-Cube with refocusing flip angle trains optimized for SNR and contrast can be used to characterize WM and cortical lesions at 7 T with 0.8 mm isotropic resolution in short scan times and without SAR penalty.

I want to personally thank you on behalf of the Lambert family and extended family for all the work you have done for my family. I have been searching for some of this information for a very long time. I did add a little information about my sister (Penny Lynn Chamberlin), who is the grandaughter of Willie and Gracie Lambert and is buried near them. My twin brothers are also buried there, next to our sister I believe. They just have a small stone marker. They were born and died on May 13, 1953 in Huntington.
Once again, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Fanny G. Smead Tompkins Correction
Hi there. I stand corrected regarding Fanny's maiden name. She is, in fact, a Smead. I did a lot of additional research, and found her in the 1850 and 1860 Census records, and sorted out the other Smead family members in the Machpelah cemetery. Her mother, Alvina, married John S. Chase, her second husband. Still cannot determine the first name of her first husband. An educated guess is it could be George C. Smead (1821-1846). Sorry for the confusion. Raymond Tompkins

Fanny G. Smead Tompkins
Good evening. Based on the marriage certificate of Osmond S. Tompkins and Fanny G. Smead, and Le Roy Gazette newspaper articles, we believe her maiden name is Chase and that she married a Smead before Osmond. Specifically, the marriage certificate states "Osmond S. Tompkins of Morris, Ill and F. G. Smead of Warsaw on Oct 6th, 1865 at J. S. Chases . . . ". Newspaper articles 2 May 1894, "Mrs. F. G. Tompkins, accompanied by her daughter Flora, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Chase, of Warsaw, this week." and 21 March 1894 "Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Chase, of Warsaw, are spending a week with their daughter, Mrs. Fanny G. Tompkins." This is just FYI and perhaps if you find this true, can adjust her findagrave information. Take care, Raymond Tompkins
