I really like this song. I bet a lot of us don't know what the true meaning is, but I definitely think it applies to me. I had to move away from my first true love, and it's really painful. This song is happy and sad at the same time, which is incredible. =]

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AP) - Afghanistan's main southern city has been rocked by a series of explosions.
Helicopters are patrolling above the Kandahar city while NATO and Afghan troops have been deployed to seal off the attack sites.
At least two civilians have been killed, while ambulances have been ferrying the wounded to local hospitals.
In one attack, a motorized rickshaw carrying explosives detonated behind police headquarters in the center of the city. Meanwhile, insurgents opened fire on an oil tanker on the eastern side of the city, causing it to explode.
Militants also fired a rocket into a prison compound in the city's west and a fourth explosion has been reported in the city's business district.
Nearly 150,000 international troops and 220,000 Afghan security forces have been fighting to gain control of Kandahar city against an estimated 30,000 insurgents. The city is considered the Taliban movement's birthplace.

As the Broadway musical industry learned long ago, the best way to express mixed emotions and confusion is through song. Thank Dharma we have Previously on Lost, the recap band that doesn't give up trying to make sense of a program more complicated than The Tonight Show. Their song "Lost in 2 Minutes!" should clear up all of the past five years' plot twists, prepping you for the Lost Season 6 Premiere Partytonight at the Bell House. The final season picks up after the survivors were split into the past and the present (which is still in the past), and a nuclear bomb blew poor Juliet to bits and straight to alien show V.

'Truth Squad' analyzes Michigan election ads
Updated On: Oct 11 2012 06:43:29 PM EDT
A Thursday gathering in Royal Oak sorted out facts and fallacies in the swirl of advertising for and against statewide issues on the November Michigan ballot.
A so-called "Truth Squad" from Michigan Radio hosted a gathering at Mark Riddley's Comedy Castle entitled " Issues and Ale."
They dissected the numerous ads for and against the ballot issues.
Rick Haglund of Michigan Radio was critical of an ad in support of a vote for a proposal calling for a public vote on a new international bridge.
"They just flat out, you know, lied," Haglund said.
The experts said ads on both sides of Proposal 2, the collective bargaining issue, are misleading.
An ad supporting Proposal 3, for alternate energy sources, claims the industry will create 94,000 jobs. The truth squad reports the truth is a projection of 94,000 job years.
Rick Haglund also took issue with an ad opposing Proposal 3, which claims passage of the measure would cost $12 Billion.
"The $12 Billion actually is an estimate from Consumers Energy, which is one of the main funders of this ad," Haglund said.
Cathy Mosher of Royal Oak attended the gathering and said it is difficult to trust the ads.
"They are just geared toward jerking people's emotions," Mosher said.
TV viewers can expect to see many more of these ads between now and election day.

Four more top executives at Chesapeake Energy have left the Oklahoma City-based company, new CEO Doug Lawler said told employees in an email Monday.The Daily Oklahoman, which reported the news, said the departures include Chief Operating Officer Steve Dixon, who served as interim CEO after the April resignation of co-founder Aubrey McClendon. Lawler, previously with Anadarko Petroleum, was named CEO in June.Also leaving are Jeff Fisher, executive vice president of production, Steve Miller, senior vice president of drilling, and Martha Burger, senior vice president of human and corporate resources. The moves are effective immediately.In an interview with the newspaper, Lawler said the management shakeup is part of an ongoing reorganization. In May, two other Chesapeake senior vice presidents, Tom Price and Henry Hood, left the company, with Price saying he planned to work with McClendon. And in June, Julie Wilson, Chesapeake's top officer in the Barnett Shale, announced her departure.Lawler praised the four departing executives' contributions and told the newspaper more changes are possible. "We continue to evaluate all parts of the business," he said.

November 21, 2014
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Two contractors have been sentenced to prison for paying tens of thousands of dollars in bribes to the so-called "godfather" of Camp Pendleton in order to secure contracts at the military base.
Federal prosecutors say 50-year-old Hugo Alonso will spend six months in prison and 51-year-old Bayani Abueg, Jr. will spend one year in prison for participating in a bribery and kickback scheme involving at least six government contracts.
The bribes went to Natividad Cervantes, who oversaw construction and service contracts at the base, to secure the multi-million dollar contracts.
Alonso and Abueg in turn accepted kickbacks from subcontractors in exchange for preferential treatment.
All three men pleaded guilty in January. Cervantes will be sentenced in late July.

Dec 4, 2012After Red Dead Redemption and inFamous it's time for Sleeping Dogs to get "scary". And well, it's not really scary. It's more like a cheap horror flick you'll only ever see once on Halloween. But hey, the price is pretty damn right. [December 2012, p.93]

Dec 3, 2012I really enjoyed the full length game, it had some fresh additions to a genre of games I really enjoy. I am however more or less offended over how little there is to enjoy in this DLC. To be perfectly honest there is nothing. It's just the perfect example of a company wanting to make money for nothing. I advice anyone thinking of buying this to give their money to charity och buy an umbrella for future use instead. This DLC will only leave you feeling cheated and wanting the last hour of your life back, because that's all the content there is, one hour max.… Full Review »

These are a good trusted brand made by centric. Not many people know centric makes brakes rotors and lines on a mass scale for automobile companies. So if your looking for an affordable upgrade that adds that bit of personal flair weather it be for show or sport. Stop tech provides the look you going for and the confidence of solid workmanship and the comfort of reliability.

Honda is recalling 2003 Accord and Civic, and 2003–2004 Element models due to a defective interlock lever in the ignition switch. The lever may deform, which will defeat the interlock function on vehicles with an automatic transmission. This may cause a vehicle that has not been shifted into the "Park" position to roll away, increasing the risk of a crash. Dealers will remove the interlock pin and lever and replace them with new components, free of charge.

One of the biggest challenges in researching state tax issues today is that many jurisdictions often have not enacted laws or issued guidance on the tax treatment of certain types of business transactions, Megan Mahony, co-practice leader, Ryan National Tax at Ryan, LLC, writes in this week's issue of the Weekly State Tax Report. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that many sales and use tax laws were written well before the explosion of recent technological innovations, such as cloud computing, she writes. Furthermore, with states under pressure to close massive budget deficits, state auditors are often "aggressively pursuing additional revenues by asserting new interpretations or applications of laws that pre-date the type of transaction at issue," according to Mahony. Against this backdrop, Mahoney, in her article, uses a case study to propose guidelines for a best research practice for transactions that are unique. Her case study follows an issue from "fact discovery, utilization of proper authority, and proper research presentation to thinking ahead to next steps." To learn how to develop research strategies when an issue is new and has not been subject to legislation, check out Mahoney's article in its entirety here.

Hamid Karzai is having issues in his second term as Afghanistan's president. It seems that the Afghan parliament has nixed 17 of his 24 Cabinet nominees. —JCL
The BBC:
Energy portfolio nominee Ismail Khan, a former warlord, was among the rejected.
Justice, commerce, economy, health and women's affairs were among other briefs left empty, but Defence Minister Abdul Rahim Wardak was approved.
[...] The vote is one of the few occasions when parliamentarians have genuine power to hold the executive to account, analysts say.
Many nominees were criticised as having been picked for reasons other than their competency.

Afghan parliament members vote Saturday during a debate in Kabul on Cabinet nominees.

John Cage, meet the world.
World, meet John Cage.
World, meet John Cage.
Happy to make the introduction.
If you don't recognize the name, John Cage is one of the most non-traditional and experimental American composers of the twentieth century. His most famous work is titled 4'33". See the video below to see a performance of this work.
Many of his music compositions look more like works of art than sheet music.
His philosophy: Music was never meant to be restricted.
Lately, I've had John Cage on the brain. If it weren't for him, I probably would have stayed a Nursing Major. Funny how things work out.
If I were a musical note, where would I belong on the page?
I'm taking a lesson from John Cage. I just can't look at things in a straight line. Life never comes to us in an organized, logical way.
What will be, will be. That's the best I can do.
John Cage's 4'33"
One Response to Who is This Man?
EnjoyingTheSilence says:
How interesting…the third movement is my favorite. At that point I was totally immersed in the silence, closed my eyes and started dreaming. I also like how his compositions could also be directions for slicing a pizza. Not a note, but I think I'd be a crescendo…the more I drink the louder I get.

Indian-U.S. Training
Indian Army Private Anil Pawe and Spc. Henry Vaillancourt, a paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team, partner up to fire an M249 Squad Automatic Weapon at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Vaillancourt is familiarizing Pawe — an infantryman assigned to the Indian Army's 99th Mountain Brigade — with the American machine gun prior to field training during the annual U.S. – India Yudh Abhyas training exercise, which ended May 17.
The joint exercise dates to 2004. Yudh Abhyas means "training for war," in Hindi. About 200 Indian troops from units including the 50th Independent Para Brigade and the 5th Gurkha Rifles participated.

INTERNATIONAL CRIME: Guns and Drugs in Africa
Transnational Crime in Africa, Latin America
ALEXANDRIA, Virginia – 4GWAR has reported in the past on how Latin American drug cartels are using countries in West Africa as transit points for drugs heading to Europe and points East. Now we learn from a federal official that small arms – particularly shotguns and shotgun shells – have become an illicit trading commodity in West Africa.
Many countries in West Africa have porous borders, weak law enforcement agencies or grinding poverty that makes government officials susceptible to bribes and corruption – and attractive for arms and drug smugglers. Officials in Gambia, Guinea, Mauritania and Sierra Leone have been implicated in drug trafficking in recent years, according to a United Nations report. Guinea-Bissau is considered to be virtually under the control of narco cartels.
Kevin O'Keefe, chief of the Criminal Intelligence Division at the U.S. ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) told a conference on transnational organized crime this week that the low tech, low maintenance weapons like shotguns are being shipped illegally to places like Nigeria, Ghana and Liberia. They are sought, not for military or terrorist use, but as a commodity to be bought and sold on the black market.
Shotguns are "not readily available in those countries, so anything you bring over, you're going to make a profit on," O'Keefe told 4GWAR after his presentation at the Countering Transnational Organized Crime conference sponsored by the Institute for Defense and Government Advancement (IDGA).
"Nobody's going to overthrow a country or command any big presence with shotguns," O'Keefe said, "but we find 12-gauge shotguns being regularly trafficked back there because they're easy to move and if you pay a couple hundred dollars here, there's a big profit margin once you sell them in these countries."
At the same conference, the head of U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) said drugs like cocaine were being shipped from several South American countries – including Brazil – to West Africa. But Marine Corps Gen. John Kelly, who oversees U.S. Military interests in all of Central and South America – except Mexico – noted that nearly all the navies and maritime police operations in the region were helping in the war on drugs. The Brazilian Navy has taken it upon itself to patrol the South Atlantic looking for pirates and other criminal activities in the waters off West Africa, he noted.
"Brazil is oriented toward Africa," said Kelly, noting it shares a common language – Portuguese – with several African nations that were once Portuguese colonies. "Brazil is starting to step out and wants to become a world power," Kelly said, adding that it is concerned about piracy and sees counter-piracy as a "niche" operation it can perform. He noted that a Brazilian naval officer has served with the U.S. 5th Fleet based in Bahrain, which oversees U.S. counter-piracy operations off the Horn of Africa. Brazil's Navy has also participated in patrol operations with the U.S. Navy off West Africa, he said.
AFRICA: The China Question, Mali Fighting
Xi in Africa
China's new president, Xi Jinping, is in the middle of a four day tour of Africa – part of his first trip abroad as national leader.
Xi will be attending a two day conference of leaders of the so-called BRICS countries starting today (March 26). The BRICS – Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – form an economic bloc made up of many of the world's leading emerging economies. But Xi is also trying to assure Africans that China interest in their continent isn't just as a market for its manufactured goods and a source of the raw materials needed by its factories.
His first stop in Africa this week (March 24) was Tanzania. China has had a close relationship with the country since it gained its independence from Britain in the 1960s. Thousands of Chinese engineers and laborers built a railroad connecting Tanzania with Zambia in the '60s and '70s, according to Xinhua's English.news.cn website.
At a conference center in Dar es Salaam built with Chinese assistance, Xi assured the audience and Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete that China was interested in helping African nations develop their economies, pledging $20 billion in loans to African countries over the next two years. He also said China would train 30,000 African professionals, offer 18,000 scholarships to African students and "increase technology transfer and experience," Reuters reported.
China's trade with all African countries reached $198 billion in total value in 2012, an increase of 19.3 percent from 2011, according to Chinese customs statistics, the New York Times reported. Much of that trade consists of oil, minerals and other commodities from Angola, Nigeria and other resource-rich countries, the Times said.
After the two-day BRICS meeting Durban, South Africa, Xi will wind up his first foreign tour with a visit to the Republic of Congo (not be confused with the Democratic Republic of Congo — formerly known as Zaire.)
At a Washington symposium on conservation and national security that your 4GWAR editor attended last week, a former Bush administration diplomat said China had made Africa "strategic."
"I think that strategic engagement is going to translate into political influence and geo-strategic influence," said Jendayi Frazer, the first woman appointed U.S. Ambassador to South Africa and a former assistant secretary of state for African affairs. "I think it will show up in things like the United Nations Security Council and how votes start to go in the U.N. General Assembly and other such venues," she added.
But, "African citizens are becoming increasingly impatient with the flood of Chinese laborers" into their labor markets "and particularly, cheap goods and the supply chain" supporting Chinese traders in the African marketplace. "It's a big problem," she told the gathering, co-sponsored by the Council on Foreign Relations and Conservation International.
Frazer, now a professor at Carnegie Mellon University, noted however, that China's "model of supporting business and their strategic outlook in Africa, is something we in the West should emulate. We should do a better job of helping our private sector" in Africa and other regions.
[You can see a video of Frazer and some of the other speakers at this symposium by clicking here. Your 4GWAR editor's question about AFRICOM is at 57 minutes and 55 seconds on the tape. Frazer's comments on China in Africa are at 1 hour, 3 minutes into the tape, followed by her comments on AFRICOM.]
Mali UpdateSix people – including one civilian – have been killed in fighting between Islamist rebels and French and Malian forces in the northern city of Gao (see map), according to Voice of America.
Meanwhile, al-Qaeda's North African affiliate has named a replacement for a key commander killed by Chadian soldiers in Mali's northern mountains last month, according to an Algerian broadcaster, VOA reported. The new guy, Djamel Okacha – also known as Yahia Abu El Hamam – is slated to replace Abdelhamid Abou Zeid as a leader of al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, commonly known as AQIM, according to Algeria's Ennahar TV.
AROUND AFRICA: Kidnappings in Cameroon and Nigeria, Brazil meets Angola, Tunisian Unrest
Kidnappings on Rise
Westerners, particularly French nationals, are being targeted for abduction by Islamist militants, angered over France's campaign against anti-government Islamist insurgents in Mali, according to The Africa Report website.
Analysts suspect that terrorist groups in Nigeria, Mali, Chad and Niger are working together to avenge what they see as a war on radical Islam, the website said.
The latest attack came Tuesday (Feb. 20) when a family of French tourists – including four children – were kidnapped in Cameroon by armed men on motorbikes. The seven French nationals were seized near a wildlife sanctuary in northern Cameroon and were taken across the border into Nigeria. No group has taken credit for the attack although authorities suspect Ansarum, an offshoot of the violent Nigerian Islamist group, Boko Haram.
The incident brings to 15 the number of French nationals being held by kidnappers in Northwest Africa. Seven French nationals are being held by an al Qaeda affiliate – al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). Another Frenchman was taken by Ansarum last June, according to the BBC.
On Saturday, seven foreigners were kidnapped during an attack on a Lebanese construction site in northern Nigeria. Ansarum has taken responsibility for that attack, saying it was in retaliation for France's attack on militants in Mali. Islamist extremists have been responsible for the deaths of numerous foreigners in Nigeria including North Korean doctors and Chinese construction workers, according to The Guardian.
Brazil, Angola Seek Closer Ties
The governments of Brazil and Angola have agreed to form a joint defense committee to supervise cooperation and annual meetings to be held in both countries, the Angola Press Agency (ANGOP) reports.
The agreement was announced in a communique issued at the end of a two-day visit to Angola's capital, Luanda, by a Brazilian delegation headed by Defense Minister Celso Nunes Morim.
Morim, who was accompanied by several business people on the trip, told a press briefing at the Angolan Foreign Ministry that Brazil is looking to cooperate with Angola on defense issues like training and joint exercises, according to ANGOP. "The simple fact that these business people have come to Angola shows that the interest is not restricted to selling alone, but also to seek partnerships and joint investment possibilities as this is important for the country's development," Nunes Morin stated.
Angola is looking to Brazil for support to strengthen its own defence industry, to reduce the Angolan Armed Forces (FAA)'s dependence on foreign military equipment sales, according to Angola's defense minister, Cândido Pereira dos Santos Van-Dunem.
Brazil has the strongest economy in South America and has been looking for foreign partners to supply equipment and manufacturing technology to strengthen its defense forces and defense industry.
Both countries are former Portuguese colonies.
Tunisia Uproar
Tunisia, the North African country — where the Arab Spring began more than two years ago — has been lurching through a political crisis since Feb. 6 when leftist politician and opposition leader Chokri Belaid was assassinated.
No one took responsibility for the fatal shooting but Belaid's supporters blamed the ruling Islamist Ennahda Party — which vehemently denied any hand in the murder — according to AFP via channelnewsasia.com
The politician's murder sparked violent street protests and strikes. Then-Prime Minister Hamadi Jebali tried to defuse the situation by announcing plans to create a non-Islamist cabinet of technocrats. The proposal failed and Jebali, resigned.
Now Presidentr Moncef Marzouki has been holding meetings with top politicians to pull the country out of the crisis.
Meanwhile, according to ForeignPolicy.com's Middle East Channel, the political instability is hurting Tunisia's fragile economy. Remember: It was protests about high unemployment and food prices as well as government corruption that precipitated regime change in January 2011. Now Standard and Poor's has downgraded Tunisia's credit rating because of the "risk that the political situation could deteriorate further…"
LATIN AMERICA: Brazil, Colombia, Chile
Brazil: May Buy Russian Air Defense System
Brazil's Defense Ministry says it will recommend that the government buy anti-aircraft and air defense systems from Russia, Reuters reports. According to a statement on its website, the Defense Ministry said it would present a proposal to President Dilma Rouseff for her approval.
Gen. Jose Carlos De Nardi, chief of staff of Brazil's Armed Forces, said Brazil is interested inacquiring three batteries of medium level Pantsir-S1 missiles and two batteries of Igla missiles.
According to Pravda, De Nardi headed a Brazilian delegation that visited Russia last month to discuss the arms purchase. The deal is expected to be signed later this month when Russia Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev visits Brazil. Part of the deal would be a technology transfer allowing Brazil to make and sell the missile systems in Latin America.
And the Moscow Times reports that Medvedev's deputy, Dmitry Rogozin, says Russia would be interested in starting a long-term military partnership with Brazil.
We told you last month that Brazil, the world's 6th largest economy has been building up its military capabilities as part of a defense strategy to safeguard its borders, offshore oil fields and the Amazon basin from foreign intrusion. That buildup has drawn several foreign defense contractors like France's DCNS, America's Boeing and Sweden's Saab to bid for Bazil's business.
Colombia: FARC Rebels Propose Legalizing Coca, Marijuana Crops
The rebel group that has been waging war against Colombia's government since the 1960s has come up with a novel idea for land reform: legalizing some of the cash crops that can be turned into illegal narcotics, the BBC reports.
The guerrillas' proposal came during ongoing peace talks in Cuba with the Colombian government. The chief negotiator for the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, known by the acronym FARC, said legalization of drug crops like poppy, coca and marijuana should be considered for therapeutic, industrial or cultural reasons. Land reform and ending drug trafficking have been two key topics at the negotiations
Chile: Not Exactly a Sea Chanty
Embarrassed officials in Chile are promising a swift investigation into a viral video showing Chilean naval cadets chanting they will kill opponents in three neighboring nations — they are not at war with.
According to CNN, the video shows the cadets repeating the cadence of their instructor: "Argentineans I will kill; Bolivians I will shoot; Peruvians I'll behead" as they run through the streets. Historically, Chile has had prickly relationships with its neighbors — like Bolivia whose seacoast Chile seized in a 19th Century war, the BBC reported.

4GWAR Blog News: 2012 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for the 4GWAR blog.
Here's an excerpt:
About 55,000 tourists visit Liechtenstein every year. This blog was viewed about 210,000 times in 2012. If it were Liechtenstein, it would take about 4 years for that many people to see it. Your blog had more visits than a (very) small country in Europe!
Last year 4GWAR was thrilled to receive more than 134,000 visits. This year's visits totaled 209,970.
Most of those views came from the United States (84,926). In descending order, the top 10 foreign viewing countries were. 1. Britain (8,645); 2. Canada (7,008); 3. India (4,568); 4. Germany (4,082); 5. Australia (3,292); 6. France (3,271); 7. Brazil (2,288); 8. Poland (2,192); 9. Russia (1,984); 10. Pakistan, (1,795).
Indonesia was close behind at 1,769 views. The African country with the biggest viewership was South Africa with 840. Three of the five most viewed 4GWAR posts were about Africa.
Thanks to all who visited 4GWAR in 2012, we hope to see more of you in 2013!
NAVAL WARFARE: Brazilian Navy S&T Chief Wants Access to U.S. High Tech
Blue Amazon
The head of the Brazilian Navy's science and technology (S&T) unit thinks the United States should ease up its technology export controls for one of its key allies in Latin America.
"We would like it if the U.S. would be sensitive to Brazilian technology needs," Admiral Wilson Guerra told a session of the Office of Naval Research's S&T Partnership Conference this week.
Guerra, speaking Portuguese and translated by simultaneous interpreters, said "technology embargoes" had prevented Brazil from obtaining radar-evading stealth technology. "Brazil is a major partner with the U.S.," Guerra said, adding that both countries' navies "have been working together for a long time."
As Secretary of Science, Technology and Innovation for the Brazilian Navy, Guerra outlined the naval portion of his country's new strategic plan. It involves strengthening the military's presence in the Amazon Region and its many rivers. Another part calls for paying as much attention to the waters 100 miles off Brazil's 7,491 kilometer/6,654 mile coastline as to the Amazon, long seen as a major contributor to Brazil's economy.
"The Brazilian people didn't understand the significance of the sea" Guerra said, so the shift in priorities was dubbed the Blue Amazon (Amazonia Azul video in Portuguese) to signify the economic and strategic importance of the sea coast and its deeper waters which are believed to contain vast petroleum deposits.
Keeping those resources secure is one reason for Brazil's "new strategic vision," which links national defense with national development. 4GWAR first reported about Brazil's new strategic defense plan two years ago when then-Defense Minister Nelson Jobim spoke at George Washington University in Washington, DC.
Guerra said it was not just a naval strategy but a strategy "for the entire Brazilian state."
For the military, the plan calls for one aircraft carrier, 23 escort vessels, 28 district patrol boats, eight submarines and the construction of a nuclear submarine with French assistance. Three French/Spanish-designed Scorpene subs have been built so far.
Guerra said eventually Brazil will have two fleets. One based in Rio de Janiero, the other farther north in or near the Amazon.
